"Now, who can tell which one is Lyra anymore?"
"Vltava remarked."
Lila glanced at Voltava; that old geezer was wicked!
You didn't say that a few days ago!
"Ahem. I misspoke, I misspoke."
Noticing Lila's expression, Voltava coughed twice and immediately apologized, as what he said had indeed been a bit too hurtful to Lila.
But he was speaking from the heart; in this situation, who wouldn't be confused?
"."
Lila fell silent. She couldn't find the words to refute him. In front of Moen, she didn't even have the confidence to say that she was a Lyra Celestial Spirit. She had completely lost her temper.
When the piece ended, Moen put away his violin and stood up, and everything around him returned to normal.
The river began to flow downstream, the fish began to swim, the birds and animals began to move again, a gentle breeze rustled the leaves, and the world began to play its natural symphony once more.
'Is this the ultimate move in La Corda d'Or?'
I thought it was going to be a death march serenade.
Moen felt the connection with the Lyra constellation. Learning the harp had a truly significant impact on Lyra. In just over a month, he successfully connected with Lyra and activated the unique skill inherent in the Lyra Silver Cloth.
"The Finale of the Strings" - when this piece is played, the lyre will shoot out countless strings to entangle the enemy, slowly tearing them apart amidst the music. This move is a true offensive technique with immense power.
But Moen was actually looking forward to "Death Journey Serenade," a technique that could put everything in the universe to sleep, even the gods!
When mastered to its fullest extent, this technique can even freeze time in the entire universe, banishing the souls of all things to float in another dimension.
The effect of Moen playing the piano was somewhat similar to "Death Journey Serenade," but the effect was far inferior. His piano music at most affected the things around him, and it was not aggressive. It simply made everything immerse itself in the music, without having any hypnotic effect.
Although it looks exaggerated, it's not very effective in actual combat. If you're attacking someone while playing the piano, they definitely won't be able to enjoy the music anymore. It's far less hypnotic than "Death Journey Serenade".
Mystergan's hypnotic magic left a deep impression on Moen, which is why he looked forward to "Death Journey Serenade".
The feeling of enemies immediately falling asleep the moment the piano music starts is really cool.
Just think of Jigglypuff. Even though it looks like a harmless little pink chubby ball, it can become a Pokémon overlord if it masters this ability!
"pity."
Moen sighed. Although the constellation Lyra seemed to have given him a great talent for the harp, he didn't know when he would be able to write such terrifying pieces on his own. It would be more reliable to rely on the system's missions to obtain them.
"What's a pity? Your playing was already perfect."
Voltava walked over and asked with a puzzled look, genuinely wondering what Moen was regretting here.
He could find no fault with this piece; even if he and Lila were to play it, they couldn't do it any better.
Of course, this is purely from a musical perspective; in terms of magical effects, neither of them can compare.
"It's still a long way off."
Moen shook his head. His current skills were far inferior to those of Orpheus.
Moreover, the harmony between the lyre in his hands and the Lyra constellation played a crucial role in his ability to play so well; his own skill was not as strong as it seemed. This truly demonstrates his ability to "make good use of external tools."
The constellation Lyra originated from the first lyre created by Hermes, which Hermes gifted to Apollo, the god of music. Apollo then gifted it to Orpheus, his son with Calliope, one of the nine Muses.
This connects everything: Orpheus, the prototype of Orpheus, was the son of the god of music and the Muses, and his musical talent was truly extraordinary.
In fact, Orpheus is another transliteration of Orpheus, and the story of Orpheus is a replica of Orpheus.
'Does it require a song to unleash the full power of Lyra?'
Moen suddenly remembered that Orpheus was not only a musician who could play the lyre, but also a singer who could sing the beautiful songs his mother taught him. He was also a very good singer, after all, his mother was a singing goddess.
That's why Lyra, the star spirit of Lyra, is not only good at playing the piano, but also at singing, and is very good at playing and singing at the same time.
"Lila, teach me to sing."
Moen looked at Lila, whose expression was complicated, and said very seriously.
"what?"
Lila was stunned for a moment. She stared at Moen, and she seriously doubted whether Moen really wanted to replace her. Did he even have to learn to sing?!
If Moen were to learn her singing skills as well, then no one would be able to tell which one is the Lyra Celestial Spirit!
"I'm fine."
Despite her inner turmoil, Lila ultimately agreed. Despite being hurt, Lila was a very kind and optimistic person; otherwise, she wouldn't have recovered so quickly and started appearing in front of Moen again.
At this moment, Lila actually began to look forward to it. She looked forward to seeing the moment when Moen's musical talent was fully developed. Perhaps Moen was indeed more favored by Lyra than she was, after all, even the stars in the sky were shining for him.
Without further ado, Lila immediately began teaching Moen, something that really had to be taught by her, since Voltava wasn't good at it.
"."
Voltava listened attentively from the side, and couldn't help but shake his head. This wasn't a denial of Moen, but rather a sigh of admiration. Moen's singing talent was equally remarkable, far surpassing his own.
After only a little over a month of learning, Moen has already surpassed his teacher. He was only good at playing musical instruments, and his singing was just barely passable. Moen will soon be more well-rounded than him.
Inside the Fairy Tail guild hall, Mira stared at Moen as he hurriedly left. She had heard that Moen was currently learning musical instruments and singing, and that he was studying with a very famous master, which made her somewhat concerned, as she herself also loved singing.
Moen's sudden and tremendous interest in music surprised everyone, as he had never shown it before.
Everyone initially thought it was just a passing fancy, but it turns out he's been studying intensively for two months straight! This truly exceeded everyone's expectations; Moen was serious!
"How's Moen's learning going?"
Kana fiddled with the cards in her hand, asking with a curious expression.
Moen has never played the harp or sung in front of anyone, which makes everyone very curious about his learning progress.
"It's only been two months, I doubt there's been much progress, right? Aren't musical instruments and singing largely dependent on talent and hard work?"
Levy made a rational deduction: Moen had never shown any talent in this area, so he couldn't suddenly become a musical prodigy, could he? So two months was at most just the beginning.
"Moen will definitely learn it very well."
Juvia chimed in timidly, expressing her opinion. Although she spoke softly, her tone was very firm.
"I also believe in Moen!"
Lisanna raised her hand, also expressing her blind trust in Moen.
"Moen must have a very sore throat from studying for so long every day."
Wendy stared wide-eyed, somewhat worried about Moen's throat. Perhaps she could prepare some tea to soothe Moen's throat.
Regarding Moen's academic performance, the children were divided into two camps: one camp believed that Moen's academic progress was not fast, while the other camp believed that Moen could succeed no matter what he did.
The "skeptical" children are mainly those who have spent more time with Moen, because they know Moen better. It's not that they don't trust Moen, but they rationally feel that Moen won't learn so quickly.
The "Blind Faith Faction" consists of younger women who have known Moen for a shorter period of time; they genuinely have a blind trust in Moen.
Erza and Mira were chosen as the leaders of the two factions. Mira didn't necessarily think that Moen would be able to learn very well quickly, but since Erza was on the "skeptical" side, she had to be on the "blind believer" side, advocating opposition for the sake of opposition.
"Let's go! Let's go find Moen and confirm!"
No matter what it is, Mirajane immediately gets excited whenever she faces Erza, but this time is a little different; she's genuinely interested in the matter at hand.
"Let's go then."
Erza, naturally unwilling to back down, readily accepted Mirajane's provocation.
"They're so childish."
Watching Erza and Mirajane locked in a fierce battle, Natsu grumbled to himself, "Erza always lectures me and Gray, telling them to fight less, but she and Mirajane fight every day. They're always at each other's throats whenever they meet."
"bump!"
Natsu took a punch to the head and immediately winced in pain.
"Natsu! Which side are you on?!"
Erza stared at Natsu and asked fiercely, while at the same time glancing at Gray on the other side.
"I support you, Erza!"
Gray immediately raised his hand and joined the "skeptics," while inwardly apologizing to Moen. It wasn't that he didn't trust Moen; he was simply forced by circumstances!
"Then I object!"
Natsu had originally intended to give in to Erza against his will, but as soon as Gray made his statement, he immediately reflexively objected.
Before Erza could get angry, Natsu jumped over to Mirajane's side, straightening his back and looking like he was riding on her coattails.
"Hahaha! Erza! I have more supporters now!"
Mirajane stood with her hands on her hips, a smug smile on her face. She now had a clear numerical advantage. She had just brought Elfman in as well, and with Natsu and Happy who was with Natsu, she had a significant lead over Erza in terms of numbers!
No need for further words, let's win first!
