Episode 51 Siren’s Song (2)
It was a time when Lois and Lucia were spending some private time together.
“Roy!”
“Roy, what are you doing?”
The twins, who had come to see Lois in surprise, seemed to have caught Lois’ scent from somewhere and immediately clung to him.
Lucia’s smile grew even brighter as the cute audience, which quickly grew to three, sat down in front of her.
“What is that?”
“What is it?”
“Shh, listen.”
After Lois calmed the twins down, Lucia started playing again.
And after a while.
Clap clap clap-.
Three little spectators played with their small hands and gave enthusiastic praise.
The twins clung to her leg excitedly.
“Again!”
“Do it again!”
Lucia smiled slightly and started playing again.
“uh?”
Moana, who was passing in front of Lucia’s room, looked surprised at the sound of music being played.
When I slightly opened the door, I saw three small heads and my younger brother playing in front of them.
“ah… … .”
A sight that seems somewhat peaceful.
For a moment, Moana’s heart sank.
Moana, with a faint smile, quietly closed the door.
She wiped away the slightly formed tears.
‘thank god. Lucia… I guess I didn’t completely hate music.’
It was the sound of Lucia playing, which had not been heard since the accident.
Even though he wasn’t singing, Moana was so happy that her younger brother had started playing again.
After Moana left, Lucia played several songs in succession.
The twins jumped up and clung to her.
“Nana, tell me this!”
“me too!”
Lois looked proud at the twins’ whining.
‘Right, right! Good job, my babies!’
If they weren’t twins in the first place, he would have clung to Lucia.
That was Lois’ idea of how to overcome Lucia’s trauma.
‘If the memories that make you want to sing are clearer than the memories that prevent you from singing… I’m sure I can sing well enough.’
Of course, that method could be cumbersome and difficult.
If she simply manipulates the memories that form the basis of the trauma with mental properties, perhaps her trauma could be overcome more easily than she thought.
But if that happens, Lucia will have to live the rest of her life with distorted memories.
Even though the relationship only lasted for a day or two, Lois couldn’t do such a mean thing to this kind girl who showed her unconditional favor.
Favor for favor.
Malice for malice.
It was also Lois’s own rule.
‘Step by step, slowly. It should bring back good memories about music and singing.’
Something that brings back happy memories that can overturn the trauma.
The first step was to start playing music again.
Thanks to the twins acting on their own, the first step seemed to be accomplished quite easily.
Unless it was the voice that was heard at that moment.
“Guys, let’s have a snack!”
At the sound of Moana’s voice, the twins who were hanging on Lucia’s legs rushed out without even looking back.
Lucia was immediately abandoned by being called a snack.
Nevertheless, she just looked at the running twins as if they were cute.
Meanwhile, Lois… … .
‘Okay, go go…’ … . It’s my fault for trusting you… … .’
I sighed deeply inwardly.
He approached Lucia who said there was nothing he could do.
“Sister, tell me that.”
“huh? “Isn’t Roy going to have a snack?”
“Not snacks… “I want to learn how to make pretty sounds like my sister.”
“ah… … .”
Lucia looked slightly touched by Lois’ bright words.
After thinking for a moment, she opened the dresser drawer.
A small barfume taken out from there.
Lucia held out the barfume.
“It’s something I used when I was young… Now, it’s a gift.”
“… “Are you giving this to me?”
“okay.”

Lucia smiled softly and gave Lois a small Bahume.
She stroked Lois’ head.
“Well, since it’s late today, shall we start tomorrow?”
“huh!”
Lois nodded and quickly left the room.
The smile on Lucia’s lips didn’t seem to disappear for a while.
And Lois didn’t know.
This means that you will discover another talent of yours.
* * *
Diriling-.
Lucia looked blankly at Lois playing the Barhume.
A beautiful rhyme created by short fingers busy moving.
The sweet sound that seemed to continue endlessly soon came to an end.
Still, Lucia’s dazed expression showed no signs of going away easily.
After finishing playing, Lois looked at Lucia and tilted her head.
“sister?”
Lucia came to her senses at the sound of Lois’ voice.
“uh? Yes?”
“What do we do next?”
“All next time?”
Lucia is shocked and confused.
She was out of her mind right now.
Today is only the third day since Lois learned how to handle Barhume.
But there was nothing left to teach Lois.
Lois learned how to grip in one day, and the next day she memorized all the codes Lucia knew.
My playing skills, which were initially immature, quickly became perfect.
It was truly an amazing speed.
“Well, that…” … .”
Lucia is struggling to find a slightly more difficult score.
Looking at her, Lois smiled happily.
‘Hey, the dragon correction goes off in something like this?’
Royce, the only instrument she has ever played in her past life was a recorder.
Fortunately, the recorder was not a musical instrument but for sword fighting with friends.
The reason why Royce was able to easily handle the complex Barfume was thanks to the dragon correction that exploded regardless of field.
Excellent memory and near-perfect sense of tempo.
Plus the flexibility of the fingers that can be easily bent.
Lois smiled happily at the dragon correction.
On the other hand, Lucia’s gaze as she looked at Lois was filled with astonishment.
‘This kid is a genius!’
Not only Lucia thought that way, but anyone who saw Lois’ playing skills would have thought the same thing.
In fact, isn’t Moana outside the door looking at Lois with a surprised face?
That’s how great Royce’s performance was.
However, Lois’s expression was not that good.
‘hmm… ‘Isn’t this enough?’
Lucia was gradually becoming interested in music again, but the momentum to definitely change her mind was weak.
‘Can’t we create a situation that will definitely shock us?’
And the opportunity Lois wanted came sooner than expected.
* * *
“Umm… … .”
Lois woke up rubbing her eyes.
He opened the window to hear the commotion outside.
Then, a completely different scene from the day before unfolded.
“oh? what’s this?”
The streets were overflowing with people, and various decorations resembling national flags were waving on the streets.
“Oh wow?”
“Wow?”
When did she wake up, the twins were snuggling next to Lois and looking out the window?
But their interest soon faded.
“Royi I’m hungry… … .”
“me too… … .”
They were twins whose appetite took precedence over their curiosity.
Just before the twins entered stage 1 of whining, Lois quickly put the elixir in their mouths.
Tsk tsk-.
Twins eagerly sucking up elixir.
The guys who took the elixir in an instant ran out to the restaurant.
Accordingly, Lois also moved to her seat.
Buzz, buzz, buzz.
Despite the early hour, the restaurant was overflowing with people.
Moana and Lucia were busy going back and forth working at the store.
Lois approached Fabro, who was eating breakfast on one side.
Then a strong smell of alcohol wafted out.
Lois’ eyebrows twitched.
“Did you drink again yesterday?”
“haha… Te, because Terius won’t let go.”
“It’s good to drink…” “What did you tell me to do?”
“You don’t have to worry about that! The elixir in Lufhagen is being swept away! Even though the quality was a bit low, I still managed to get about 20 of them.”
“20? hmm… “Is that a lot?”
“No matter how low-level the elixir is, it is Lufthagen, so you can get it at that level. “You can’t even see it anywhere else.”
“okay? what… by the way. “No matter how old our relationship is, if you get too much for free, he will get noticed, so if you need money, tell Finn.”
“yep! All right.”
For the past few days, while Lois and the twins remained at the inn, Fabro went in and out of the Bernt family mansion and worked hard to procure elixirs.
Because of this, he had drinking parties every day, and even today he was eating red soup at the inn.
Lois asked Fabro, who had his nose stuck in the bowl.
“But what’s out there? “Is there some kind of festival going on?”
“Oh, you didn’t know. “Starting today, Lufhagen’s Manseon Prayer Ceremony is held.”
“Manseon Prayer Ceremony?”
“yes. Nowadays, when we think of Lufhagen, we think of it as a top trading port, but in the past, it was a small port town that made a living through fishing. At that time, a ancestral rite was held once a year to pray for the safety and full catch of men going out fishing, and now it has become a form of festival.”
“Ohh?”
“We were lucky. I thought it would be right around this time, but it turns out that tomorrow is the day to pray for the full sun. It would be quite a sight to see. It’s one of the biggest festivals on the winter continent. “A lot of people come from outside to see this festival.”
After saying that, Fabro shook off the remaining soup, shoved it down his throat, and stood up.
Then, with a quick glance at Lois, he pulled away.
“Well, then I’ll go look around the black market and see if the elixir came in.”
“huh.”
Lois waved her hand.
Fabro rushes out in fear of being caught by Lois.
It seemed like they were probably using the black market as an excuse to go back to the drinking party.
Another day goes by like that.
Preparations for the festival started early in the morning and reached their peak in the late evening.
“Oh wow.”
“Oh wow!”
“Ohh?”
In that order, they were the exclamations of Khan, Carney, and Royce.
Three small heads clinging to the window and watching people passing by outside the window.
Moana and Lucia, who were taking a break after a busy day, looked pitiful when they saw the children like that.
Then Moana asked.
“Lucia.”
“huh?”
“we… Should I take the kids out?”
“uh? Is that okay?”
“The festival hasn’t started yet. Business is best done during festivals… … . “We’ve been taking care of the store every year for the past few years, but we haven’t really looked around, have we?”
“That’s right… … .”
“and… “You’re pitiful.”
Moana’s eyes turned to three small heads moving in the same motion as people passing by on the street.
It was cute and cute, but at the same time, I felt pity for it because it looked like a puppy that wanted to go outside.
At the same time, anger toward Fabro arose.
“Really, this guy leaves the kids like that and wanders around all the time!”
“that’s right!”
“It’s a long-awaited festival, so I’d like to take the kids to see it!”
“It seems like you’re always drinking these days… … .”
“Oh man, I guess I’ll make hangover soup for you tomorrow.”
The sisters united behind Fabro’s back.
Moana said, undoing her apron.
“Lucia, stop accepting any more customers and put up a closed sign.”
Lois’ ears perked up at the sound of Moana’s voice.
‘Oh my?’
