Chapter 285: Lucien, the Respected Musician

Translator: Kris_LiuEditor: Vermillion

The hall of the Musicians' Association was the same, grand but quiet. No matter where, the Musicians' Association was always the most quiet place among all the professional associations, as most musicians and instrumentalists were busy with all kinds of stuff—including training the bands, rehearsal, looking for music sheets in the library and so on. Therefore, very few of them would come to the association in the early morning.

Also, the Musicians' Association was supposed to be a quiet place to let the musicians stay focused on their music works.

The two young girls behind the reception desk looked sweet and nice. Right now, they were a bit nervously talking to Mr. Hank, who was responsible for the association's daily routine. Mr. Hank was introducing a beautiful young lady to them.

The young lady was about twenty something. She had impressive, long black hair and a pretty face. However, what attracted people's eyes more was the white, huge wolf sitting beside her, which looked quiet and intelligent.

”Ms. Louise, we'll ask other musicians whether they're interested in nature music, and if we find any, we'll tell you as soon as possible,” said one the young gir whose name was Polly respectfully to the new musician.

Ms. Louise was the envy of many people who had music dreams, including the receptionist girls. She was born in a noble family and she showed her music talent at a very young age. With the heritage she got and the money she made by playing music, she bought the magic potion and awakened her Blessing, which pulled her closer to animals and nature. This strange Blessing also made her playing skills even better and unique, and therefore she made herself famous over this music festival.

But for Polly, the person who she really admired was Miss Elena. Miss Elena started as a receptionist just like them, but she turned herself into a instrumentalist by working hard and now she was making good money.

Louise smiled and said politely, ”Thank you. Music theme that is inspired by mother nature is not common in Aalto. Even Mr. Hank has no idea whether we have musicians who've put some thoughts into it. It all relies on you two now. Please ask the musicians for me carefully. Thanks a lot.”

At this time, a young, good-looking man wearing black suit and bow tie entered the hall through the stained glass door, followed by a few young musicians and instrumentalists.

Polly had been working there for a year, but she never met the young, good-looking man walking in the front. Meanwhile, she knew all of the several musicians and instrumentalists following him. Somehow, Polly felt the young man's face quite familiar.

Hank turned around. He first looked confused, and then a big smile appeared on his face, ”Welcome back, Mr. Evans!”

”Mr. Evans?!” Polly and the other girl suddenly realized who this young man was. They saw Mr. Evans' brand new conducting skills and piano playing skills over the music festival in Aalto three years ago. The two girls were very young at that time, but they still remembered Mr. Evans' elegance and talent.

”Good morning, Mr. Hank.” Lucien smiled and nodded. After the three years, Mr. Hank seemed even politer and more enthusiastic to him.

When Lucien walked to the reception desk, Polly and the other girl bowed to him excitedly and politely, ”Good morning, Mr. Evans.”

”Good morning, Mr. Evans,” greeted Louise, also a bit excitedly.

Young girls in their age sort of spent their adolescence time with the company of Lucien's music. Therefore, their excitement could be imagined.

Lucien, keeping the polite smile on his face, looked at the white wolf whose ears were pointing upwards and said, ”You must be Miss Louise. I've heard people talking about your music, and I also heard your music. Very nice…”

Lucien made the hotel band play some popular music works over the dinner last night. Of course, only those ones that did not require a whole symphony band to perform.

”Thank you, Mr. Evans. I still have much to learn.” Louise's face flushed. For a young musician, a sentence of compliment from a great musician like Lucien meant a lot to her. It was for sure a great encouragement, and it could also contributed to her career development a lot.

After greeting around, Lucian asked Polly and the other girl, ”Nice to meet you. May I know if my teacher, Mr. Victor, and Mr. Christopher are here today?”

After finishing his last concert, Christopher has become the association's honorary chairman.

”Yes, yes… Mr. Evans…” said Polly, a bit stammering. ”Mr. Victor is the association's director now. He's always got a lot of things to do, especially after the music festival. He's been working in his office for a while. Mr. Christopher's also here. Recently, it seems that he has got some new music ideas.”
