Man in the Ark: Revitalizing Kazdel

Chapter 259 Amiya's Dream

"Arturo?" Roy was very familiar with the sound of the cello, especially Arturo's unique playing style. Chaos and madness were hidden beneath the calm notes, like an undercurrent surging beneath the surface of a lake.

Roy looked at Theresa, then turned to look at the doctor. He found that both of them were focused on Amiya on the stage, and did not hear the cello accompaniment inexplicably added to the violin music.

Two invisible threads, one light and one dark, are intertwined and entangled. The gentle melody gradually rises, and the emotions flowing in it are about to reach their peak.

"Go see what's going on..." Roy cast a spell, and a shadow sprang out from the shadows under his feet. After leaving the conference hall, the shadow quietly bypassed the guards stationed outside and went in the direction where the piano sound came from.

On the rooftop, Arturo noticed someone coming and slowly opened his eyes. The tall figure under the moonlight was reflected in his deep and mysterious eyes.

"You're here, Roy." With an incomprehensible smirk on the charming white face, Arturo sped up the speed of pulling the bow and lightly danced towards the clone.

"Since it's just a clone, it doesn't matter if I offend him a little." Arturo moved lightly, went behind the clone, leaned against it back to back, and continued his performance.

"Arturo, even though this is not me, I still hope that you can pay attention to your behavior." The clone said coldly with a blank expression.

"It's just the two of us now, there's no need to be so concerned about etiquette. This is a song I composed especially for you, how about it, do you like it?"

"In terms of composition and performance level, you are worthy of the title of master. It's a pity that this is not your song, nor is it my song." The clone shook his head and commented.

"If you are willing to untie me, I can compose a new song for you." Arturo turned around and returned to the clone, his long hair swinging across the clone's palm.

The intricate patterns on her fair and slender neck indicated that the forbidden spell still existed. She was still unable to use her own spells, listen to other people's emotions and perform them.

"If you can convince yourself, I can help you untie it, but it will have to be after the celebration. After untying the shackles, you can choose to leave Kazdel and visit other places on earth."

The clone gave an answer that surprised Arturo, and the confident smile on his face slowly faded. He showed a serious expression that he had never had before, and seemed to be a little annoyed.

"Is Kazdel planning to expel me, a wanted criminal from Lateran?" After the melody reached its peak, the cello tune gradually began to become low and slow, guiding the audience to calm down and make a final ending.

"No, it's just that in my opinion, if you continue to stay in Kazdel, nothing will change much. You need a new environment and new things to enrich yourself. A journey across Terra is a good choice."

The doppelganger explains why he suggested Arturo leave.

"......" Arturo did not comment on this until the end of the performance, when the bowstring was rubbed for the last time and the musician bent down and bowed to take his leave.

"Thank you for listening. Please allow me to stay for a while. I need to save enough money for the journey." Arturo obviously agreed with the advice from his clone and began to prepare for the journey.

"Hmm? You're out of money?"

"Of course, I used my savings to renovate the church, and I also have daily living expenses..." Arturo stroked the hair by her ears. For an artist like her, being poor seems to be something difficult to talk about.

"...Do you need me to help you with some of the expenses? Just consider it as performance fees."

"My performance fee is very high. Are you going to let me name the price?" Arturo put the cello and bow neatly back into the instrument case and leaned against the fence.

"I think I still have some savings. If it's not enough, I can go mining."

"Ok?"

......

In the banquet hall, Amiya and Arturo finished playing almost at the same time, showing great tacit understanding. After they bowed in the same way, thunderous applause broke out from the audience.

The doctor, in particular, clapped so hard that Roy, who was standing nearby, couldn't help but worry that her hands would get swollen.

Judging from the proud smile on her face, the Doctor truly treats Amiya as his own daughter.

But who wouldn’t like a cute and sensible little rabbit like Amiya?

Everyone was amazed at the outstanding performance of Amiya, a young child who far surpassed her peers.

"When I was her age, I would get mad because combat training was too hard, but she's already done this."

"Perhaps I should pay more attention to Dai Feien's growth. This summer, I will ask her father to bring her to the frontline area for some training."

The Duke of Windermere, who was far away from the stage, looked at Amiya who was calm and composed on the stage, and compared her with his own daughter, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

There were many people on the field who shared the same idea as the Duke of Windermere.

At their current age, most of them have their own children, and they will always unconsciously compare their own children with other people's children. I hope that when they return, they will not put pressure on their children.

After Amiya bowed, she did not choose to turn around and leave the stage. Instead, she took a few deep breaths to adjust her state, and then began the first speech of her life.

“My name is Amiya, I’m ten years old, and I was once infected. I’m very honored to be able to stand on the stage of such an important dinner tonight, and it’s inseparable from the support of many people around me.”

"The doctor rescued me from a car accident. In order to cure my oripathy, he ended his journey early and took me back to Kazdel."

"Miss Theresa told me that Kazdel will be your home from now on, and she has always taken good care of me."

"Dr. Kelsey examined me and developed a treatment plan to relieve the pain of my oripathy."

"Later, Mr. Roy cured my mineralogy, allowing me to get rid of the pain and become a normal child, growing up without worries."

“Teacher Arturo taught me to play the violin. Although she is not at the banquet tonight, I can feel that she is always by my side supporting me.”

"I also made a lot of friends and seniors who were very kind to me and taught me a lot of knowledge that I couldn't learn from books."

"At night I often wonder if I did a lot of good deeds in my previous life, so I am so lucky to meet so many good people in this life."

"However, not everyone in this land is so lucky. There are many infected people like me. We live at the bottom of the city, have no stable jobs, often go hungry, have no money to treat illnesses when we are sick, and may even be driven out of the city."

"I have seen some villages of infected people gathered outside the city. They are no different from the people in the city. They are just sick and have black stones growing on their bodies. They are ostracized by the people in the city. They can only live in the dangerous wilderness and survive by scavenging."

"I want to help them. I hope to become a doctor and work with my predecessors who share the same idea to heal this sick land. I believe that in the near future, everyone will be able to sleep peacefully."
