In Angel's eyes, Uriel is an extremely talented music master with an extremely serious attitude toward music. Music is an elegant art, and Uriel is also an elegant person in Angel's heart.
people.
But if Uriel lived in such a messy room in real life, then the contrast would be huge.
But if you think about it carefully, it's actually not impossible.
Many geniuses are often extremely outstanding in one aspect, but in another aspect they are inferior to even children. Could it be that Uriel is such a genius in music and a mediocre person in life?
Of course, besides this situation, there is another possibility.
That is, Uriel encountered some changes, or external blows, which made him decadent and depressed. He drank alcohol all day and night, ignored the world, and used his hands. This resulted in his current sloppy appearance.
?
Angel didn't know which one it was, but he was actually leaning towards the latter in his heart.
Because Uriel once said something before in the 'dream' state: "I will only have one partner, and that person has already gone to the glorious temple."
Uriel in the dream state is actually Uriel in reality. Therefore, these words spoken in the dream state must correspond to his real situation.
This sentence contains two important messages.
Both of these important messages extend from the "Glory Temple".
In the Wizarding World of the Western Continent, the Church of Glory spreads all over the continent and is the belief of countless people. According to the teachings of the Church of Glory, after a sinless person dies, he will ascend to the Holy Church of Glory, which is the home of the soul and the pure land of bliss.
Therefore, from what Uriel said, it can be determined that he lived in the Western Continent and must have been influenced by the Glory Church.
The second message is that his partner is dead, and he will never choose a second partner again.
Uriel's most important partner passed away. Isn't this a serious change and an unbearable blow to Uriel?
Also, don’t forget Uriel’s preference for music analyzed by Guy.
Uriel was very dissatisfied with religion and even wanted to rebel against it.
Combined with the background mentioned before, the religion that Uriel rebels against is most likely... the Church of Radiance.
Living in the theocratic territory of the Glorious Church, but secretly thinking about resisting the Glorious Church, does this mean that he has been persecuted by the Glorious Church?
If we go one step further and combine it with the previous speculation, could the death of Uriel's partner be related to the persecution of the Radiant Church?
If this is the case, it seems understandable that after such a big blow, Uriel would become depressed and slovenly, confused all day and night.
Of course, the above is just an unreasonable association that Angel made after seeing the messy room.
Whether this is the case, no one can tell except Uriel himself.
…
Time goes back to ten minutes ago.
In the messy room, Uriel sat slumped on the sofa piled with dirty clothes as if he had no bones.
He raised his head and stared intently at the mottled ceiling, as if trying to spot a flower among the dirty lines on the ceiling.
In this sluggish state, it wasn't until the sound of Luigi's harp sounded that he slowly came back to his senses.
"Where did the music come from?" In Uriel's confused mind, an inexplicable sentence emerged: "I seem to be hearing hallucinations again."
"Hey, why did I say 'again'?"
Uriel was about to use his few thoughts and prepare to think deeply, but at this moment, Luigi's piano sound suddenly changed from cheerful and lively to slightly solemn, clear and clean.
This is... religious music?
As soon as he heard the religious music, Uriel originally wanted to think about the situation of 'hearing hallucinations again', but now he simply threw away this idea: "Never mind, let's just let the auditory hallucinations happen."
Religious music is his old profession, and what he is best at is religious music.
So when he hears religious music, he can't help but get addicted to it.
But... religious music was the music that caused him the most pain. It was obviously so clean and clear, but who could have known that hidden beneath this holy music were piles of crimes and atrocities.
Therefore, when he heard religious music, he felt extremely complicated, which made him addicted and disgusted at the same time.
Uriel braced himself and tried to raise his head to see who was playing religious music. Could it be someone from the church choir?
However, his body became very stiff for some reason, and it took a lot of effort to move even slightly.
If Uriel exerted all his strength, he could raise his head a little, but when he was halfway up, he suddenly gave up.
Because, the sound of music in my ears slowly entered... the chapter of the story.
The melodious music, with a religious flavor, sounded clean and clear, but it gave Ulier the feeling that there was deep sadness behind the cleanness and clearness.
The creator wrote this piece of music as if he was telling a story to people.
This story is at the core of religion...a tragedy.
Because of this, Uriel no longer wants to think about any other complicated things or see who is playing. He just wants to enter the story and see what kind of tragedy it is.
Will it be the same as 'his' situation?
At this moment, Luigi, sitting opposite Uriel, was immersed in the performance of "Black Sheep Confession Song".
If he knew that Uriel had already heard the "dark tragedy" under the holy story, he would probably be frightened. After all, the real tragic chapter of "Black Sheep Confession Song" is in the middle and later stages.
The early chapters are just about a carefree priest spreading the gospel in a monastery.
Just through the early chapters, I can grasp the tragic core of the entire music.
Luigi can't do it.
Uriel has such an ability, which shows that he far exceeds Luigi's music appreciation level... Of course, this is also because Uriel himself is good at religious music, and the priest who composed "Black Sheep Confession Song" was himself a
This piece of music was created when one's faith had already strayed. It would be too difficult for a heretic to compose religious music that is completely pure and flawless and praises virtue.
Therefore, Uriel could hear the dissatisfaction contained in it as soon as he heard it.
If it were other types of music, Uriel would be impatient at this time. Even the underlying emotions of the music cannot be pure. What kind of good music is it?
But this is religious music, and the underlying emotion is: a holy lament.
To a certain extent, it fits Uriel's state of mind and... predicament.
Therefore, even though the first part of "Black Sheep's Confession Song" was not that pure, it still caught Uriel's ears... He was looking forward to the venting of the tragic song in the second part.
Soon, the trend of music began to slowly change.
Clear, indirect notes began to be replaced by complex and occasional noise.
This also means that "Black Sheep Confession Song" has entered its middle chapter.
The originally carefree and devout priest was assigned to the position of "spreading the gospel" and "enlightening the lost sheep" by his superiors. It was also at this time that he heard countless dark inside stories from the prayers of the congregation.
Most of these dark inside stories and the things that caused the suffering of the believers were due to the oppression of power. In the Principality of Eugris where he lived, the "Xitu Cult" he believed in was the largest authority, "Heaven".
"Lord" Situ is the only god!
But in a region where theocracy governs the country, the people are oppressed by the powerful... Behind this, it would not have happened without the acquiescence of the Xitu sect.
Therefore, the "Xitu Cult" he believed in turned out to be the source of darkness...
The content of the middle chapter of "Black Sheep Confession Song" is about such a devout priest. Because he witnessed darkness, especially the darkness that was caused by "faith", his mentality slowly changed.
This chapter already has the rhyme of a tragic song.
When Uriel heard this, he was completely fascinated. He seemed to have entered the story of "The Confession of the Black Sheep", but in the story, he was not a devout priest, but those who were under the authority of God.
, one of the countless miserable civilians who were bulldozed.
Uriel's emotions were fluctuating, and he thought of himself. Under the vast divine power of the Holy Light Church, he and... he were just a path that was run over by the ruthless wheel.
This kind of emotional fluctuation is no longer an inner feeling, but is reflected in Uriel's expression.
When Luigi looked up inadvertently, he happened to see Uriel's expression.
This is a scene that has never happened before when Luigi performed music.
Luigi's eyes lit up and his heart suddenly blossomed. This showed that the music this time really hit the mark and entered Uriel's heart!
Luigi knew very well that his skills could not be improved in a short period of time. If he wanted to get a higher reservation with Uriel, he could only start with music scores.
Now that the music score is correct and "Black Sheep Confession Song" has entered Uriel's heart, what he has to do next is very simple...
Go all out, invest more emotions, and let yourself become one with the protagonist and creator of "Black Sheep Confession Song" - the priest of the Principality of Eugris!
You are me and I am you.
Completely integrate into the character and maximize the emotional pull!
In other scores, it is difficult for Luigi to be so integrated into the character, but "Black Sheep Confession" is different. Angel bought him three days in Schock's haunted house, and also created a song similar to "Black Sheep Confession".
The core of "Black Sheep's Confession Song" is exactly the same illusion. At that time, he was the protagonist in the story. In the illusion, he personally experienced everything the creator had to do, including the final scene of a complete tragedy that released everything and himself!
Now, it's just a matter of getting back to where we were back then.
This is not difficult for a master interpreter like Luigi.
Moreover, Luigi is somewhat different from other performers. He is the tense body of Laplace, and every tense body and punctual body of Laplace will amplify a certain characteristic of himself.
For example, the characteristic of the punctual person "Mei Ji" is "tolerance for good people".
Luigi also has his own unique characteristic, which is "the pursuit of dreams."
Once Luigi sets a goal and begins to enter the "dream chasing" state, his blood will be ignited, his senses will be amplified, and everything will be good.
Similar to a natural all-round buff effect.
This kind of gain even has a bonus to "infectiousness".
Therefore, when Luigi seriously entered the state, the emotional impact of the tragedy, which was only 80 points, was instantly raised to 90 points, even infinitely close to the full score.
For ordinary listeners, this may not make much difference, it is just a matter of the depth of the opera; but for a music connoisseur like Uriel, a little change is enough to make him feel a different world!
Previously, Uriel was still in the state of being "brought into" the story, and could barely resolve his emotions. He could even withdraw from the story at any time if he wanted to. But now, he was taken directly onto the roller coaster.
, without any foreplay, instantly soared hundreds of meters into the sky.
Under such circumstances, the full emotions floating in the sky could not resolve themselves at all, so they could only enter internalization.
Internalization once again infected Uriel, making him deeper into the story. Even if he wanted to escape, he had no choice but to follow the progress of the story... and share the ups and downs.
At this time, "Black Sheep's Confession Song" has just entered its most climactic finale.
Enter with the beat of the drum——
The drum beats performed on the harp are not as heavy as the original drum beats, but more sharp. It fits the priest's sharp but fragile soul in the original story, which is like a taut string.
The notes did not reach a climax immediately, but used constant sharp drum beats, long classical howls, and religious solemn sounds from time to time to accumulate power.
There is no doubt that when the power is accumulated to the highest point, amazing and gorgeous sparks will bloom!
In the story, the priest directly came into contact with the darkest side with his purest and most innocent heart, which also caused a big change in his heart unexpectedly.
At first, he was still trying to explain himself and try to tolerate it.
And this process of forbearance is the process of accumulation.
But the forbearance cannot last long, because he is a priest who preaches the gospel, and he will continue to listen to the distress of the congregation. More distress will follow, and these distresses are like accumulated dark depressions, which continue to
It affects the soul of the priest.
Until this day, a believer who was less than ten years old died in front of him.
The nobleman who wore the Situated Medal of Honor killed this innocent and lovely... just like his past self, his most beloved believer.
Looking at the dead little believer, the priest suddenly saw his own face on the corpse.
It was as if it was not him who died, but himself.
boom--
In an instant, the embankment collapsed.
The priest's mind was completely broken.
The pure white paper is no longer twisted at the fingertips and suspended in the air, but is let go, falling leisurely, and sinks into the ink-colored pool.
White paper, dyed black, is just a moment of immersion.
The notes also completely changed at this moment, from the accumulated bass to the long and ever-increasing notes.
This also represents the priest's mood at this time.
Every time the long note climbs higher, the priest in the story is further involved in the darkness.
He abandoned the light, and he became the nightmare of the Situ cult, and what the Situ cult calls a black sheep demon in human skin.
He is seeking revenge on all those who dragged him into darkness.
The powerful, the pope, and accomplices are all his targets.
When he also became the "demon" in the mouth of a certain accuser, the priest finally came to his final place - the Celestial Cathedral of Xituism.
Flames ignited in the Cangtian Cathedral.
The notes also reached their peak at this moment!
The manic notes are like flames, constantly burning everything around them.
As for the crazy demon, corpses covered with black blood were already lying around him.
In the extremely fierce sea of fire, the devil came to the choir stage and performed the last song.
This song is none other than "Black Sheep's Confession Song"!
At the end of the song, the fire completely submerged the devil.
The flames burned away the demon's outer shell, revealing the white and flawless face of the priest inside.
Immediately afterwards, the flames continued to burn, spreading to the point where the face was invisible.
