Chương 30: The Music of Two Souls
Thank you to KSATRIA for giving power stones. I really appreciate it.
==================================================
As the grand piano was unveiled and the exquisite violin graced Myra's hands, the atmosphere of the hall transformed. Curiosity and anticipation filled the air. No one knew what they were about to witness, but the confident expressions of Eldric and Myra kept everyone silent, waiting.
Eldric seated himself at the piano, his fingers gently brushing the cold, vibrant keys beneath them. On the other side, Myra stood gracefully, the violin resting on her shoulder, poised to deliver the first note. When Eldric began, the soft piano melody seeped into the room, captivating every soul present.
The opening notes were light and joyful, like morning dew greeting the world with tenderness. Myra then joined in, her violin harmonizing with the piano like the wind dancing with sunlight. Together, they played with extraordinary unity, every note speaking a language unheard by the guests before.
Liora stood frozen in place. Her hands reflexively covered her mouth, her eyes wide with awe. Her heart raced, matching the rise and fall of the music, as if she was being led through an indescribably beautiful story. "So... this is what they call a piano and violin," she thought, scarcely believing such enchanting sounds could exist.
Elsewhere in the hall, Princess Elena, usually bright and confident, was rendered speechless. Her sparkling blue eyes reflected wonder as she whispered to Roland beside her, "What... what is this music? I can't even describe how I feel."
Roland gave a faint smile, his own gaze fixed on the performance. "I don't know, Your Highness. But if there's anything close to the beauty of heaven, this might be it."
The music flowed on, shifting from its initial cheerfulness to a deeper, more emotional tone. Eldric's piano resembled a gentle whisper, guiding Myra's violin through an intense conversation filled with passion, love, and hope.
The invited guests, initially just curious, were now entirely enraptured. Some closed their eyes, letting the melody carry their imaginations. "This... this is extraordinary," one nobleman murmured, his eyes glistening. Others nodded, too mesmerized to speak.
As the climax of Spring Sonata arrived, the music soared to emotional heights, stirring every listener's soul. It was as if they were flying across an endless spring meadow, where every flower told a unique story.
For Liora, it felt like time had stopped. "Father and Mother... they seem connected in a way words cannot describe," she thought, her eyes glistening with unshed tears.
As the music gradually softened, the hall was filled with a warm, resonant silence. When the final note faded, Eldric and Myra ended in perfect harmony. For a moment, the room remained still, with only the sound of quiet, held breaths.
Then, like a wave, applause erupted across the hall. Some guests rose from their seats, offering a standing ovation to the Carval couple who had brought magic to life through their music.
"So this is..." Princess Elena whispered, tears of joy streaming down her cheeks. "So this is the beauty that can be created by a piano and violin. I've... I've never experienced anything like this before."
Liora stepped forward, her face glowing with happiness. She embraced her parents warmly. "Father, Mother... that was the most beautiful thing I've ever seen and heard. Thank you... thank you for sharing this."
Myra smiled gently, stroking Liora's hair. "This was all for you, dear. Though, you should know, it's your father who deserves most of the credit for this performance."
Eldric stood on the stage, his composed yet authoritative presence commanding the room's attention as the cheers and applause gradually subsided.
"Thank you all for your kind appreciation of this performance," Eldric said, his voice deep and clear, resonating through the hall. "Tonight, my wife, Myra, and I have presented something truly special. For those of you wondering, these two instruments are known as the piano and the violin."
Soft murmurs rippled through the audience as the guests whispered among themselves, trying to comprehend the unfamiliar terms Eldric had just introduced.
Eldric continued, his gaze resting affectionately on Myra, who still held the violin with grace. "The piano is a musical instrument played by pressing its keys. Each press vibrates strings within, producing rich and varied tones. The violin, on the other hand, is a string instrument played with a bow. Its sound is both tender and piercing, capable of touching anyone who hears it."
He paused, allowing his explanation to sink in. "Both instruments originate from the world I introduced through the manga Your Lie in April. In that world, music is the language of the soul. Tonight, I wanted to show you what that language truly sounds like."
Myra added with a voice full of warmth, "When the violin and piano are played together, they speak in harmony. They tell a story, taking listeners on a journey of emotion, love, and beauty that can only be experienced through the art of music."
The guests sat in reflective silence, their faces filled with awe and inspiration. Princess Elena, her eyes sparkling, gazed at Eldric with newfound admiration.
"I can't believe it," she murmured to herself. "So this is what these instruments are... this is more than magic."
One of the nobles spoke up, his voice full of respect. "Lord Eldric, the music you and Lady Myra played... it was extraordinary. It wasn't just beautiful; it told a story. Will these instruments be made available to the public?"
Eldric offered a faint smile and replied with optimistic resolve, "Of course. The piano and violin are part of a larger project we're developing through The Carval Collective. We aim to bring this art to many, so that anyone who wishes to cherish its beauty can experience it."
The hall buzzed with astonished whispers as some guests began enthusiastically discussing the possibility of acquiring such instruments.
"But tonight isn't over yet. This performance... isn't finished."
Whispers spread again, with guests speculating eagerly about what might come next. Even Liora looked at her father with deep curiosity.
"The piano and violin," Eldric continued, his gaze fondly shifting to the instruments before him, "are not just tools for conveying the beauty of emotions through melody. Their true purpose lies in becoming the wings for a voice that delivers feelings directly to the heart. Tonight, I will show you how these instruments can elevate a song into pure magic."
All eyes focused intently on him, an anticipatory silence filling the room. Princess Elena watched with sparkling eyes, barely able to contain her excitement for the next marvel.
