Miss Witch doesn't want to be a diva

At the end of November, it is the refreshing season of early summer in the southern hemisphere. Bright colorful ribbons and green branches and leaves are dancing on the campus. Edes Academy welcomes a rare centenary celebration. During this period, there are many tourists, and many residents come here out of curiosity. Visit the number one academy in the star field. The originally quiet and spacious academy is now full of tourists.

Wow, is this Edes Academy? It feels so big~

Children around 12 years old were jumping around on the road paved with exquisite stone slabs, looking at the flower columns dotted with blue roses around them. There are various small shops and stalls run by students on both sides of the road. Some sell greeting cards and souvenir books from the school, as well as some homemade gifts, special snacks, etc.

There are very few classes during the celebration, and the academy also encourages students to start small businesses to experience life.

Tourists on the street walked forward while curiously scanning the various small shop stalls. Among them were commemorative badges with blue roses, ceremonial swords decorated with black roses, and five models of the school's collaboration with Gothic Dolls Uniforms, handwritten greeting cards encapsulated with dried flowers, small sculptures made by students, Ticos red fruits grown on campus, oak grilled fish from the campus lake, and campus commemorative photos of Hesia, etc.

I want that 'night patrol' uniform.

A boy of about 15 years old pointed at the uniforms hanging in the store. This jointly produced set of clothes is based on frost color # e9f1f6, with crow green # 424c50 sleeve edges, collar and decorative flowers. It is wide and black. On the edge of the sleeves, there are white patterns of skulls and roses, which have a strong meaning of death and mystery, and are loved by some young people.

Are you sure you want it? Why not choose the 'Cyan Sword Phi' next to it, I think it looks more handsome. The father on the side pushed up his glasses and expressed his preference.

It's not as good as the 'Evening Color Music' worn by Tilan. I feel it's very elegant, low-key and rich in connotation. The boy's mother suggested.

How about buying them all? The young man raised his hands, indicating that he wanted them all.

That's not possible. Both parents replied at the same time, which made the young man immediately feel discouraged.

That's still 'Visiting Night', I like this. As he spoke, he carefully stroked the fine-quality cuff fabric.

On the other side of the street, the noisy sounds attracted the attention of the surrounding people.

Are you going to watch a performance at the Puppet Theater? My friend just came over there. The performance inside is said to be very good~

Then go. Several people traveling with him responded with a smile. Some of them were holding ice cream, some were holding freshly bought fruit ice tea, baked snacks, etc.

Along the branch of the flow of people, a miniature mansion like a fairy tale appeared on the lawn. It was surrounded by temporary guardrails to separate the crowd from the outside world. Only dozens of people were allowed to enter at a time.

After waiting in line for more than ten minutes, a group of people walked into this foreign-style hotel out of curiosity. The red and white checkered floor, the large clock dial with a hollow wall in the distance, and the classical oil paintings on the wall all gave people a retro and... A mysterious atmosphere.

Soon, the silence in the mansion was broken. As the clock hands pointed to the center, bells rang, the door closed, and the room became dark, and then a faint golden halo shone down from above, falling on On the dark floor, a little light.

A blond girl wearing a Gothic windbreaker walked out slowly, her hard heels making a clear sound as they stepped on the floor.

Welcome to my doll house, I am Alice Nalanfeli.

This girl in complicated and gorgeous clothes raised her skirt and saluted, crossed her legs and bent down, then stood up together. Then there was the sound of a gear winch, the floor continued to rise, a small red carpet stage rose, and several lifelike and exquisite dolls emerged from the stage. They flew out of the darkness on both sides. Some of them were wearing golden wings, some were wearing black and red bat wings, some were wearing gorgeous clothes, and some were wearing heavy armor. After these dolls fought in the air, Separate and then land on either side of the stage.

Today I will perform for you the puppet opera The Legend of the Blue Songstress and the Scarlet Songstress. After saying that, the puppets on the stage retreated into the darkness, and then two people wearing gorgeous red and blue skirts I slowly walked out from both sides of the stage.

The girl standing in the shadow behind the stage raised her finger. Below her, exquisite puppets performed a classic and moving opera. This wonderful performance made the first-time visitors feel novel and immersed in it unknowingly. I gradually forgot that these were just dolls, and instead substituted them into real history and legends.

After leaving this exquisite dollhouse, on another branch of the crowded street, in front of a wooden hut semi-hidden in the forest, there were many curious tourists.

Don't be anxious, everyone has a chance~ The squinting elder sister, wearing a witch's figure-flattering uniform, comforted the tourists in line. Beside her, there were several girls wearing similar witch uniforms. Some of them The divination cards flying and rotating on the table, some were covered with black gauze, slowly touching the crystal ball in front of them, and some placed the completed special potion bottles on the table for sale.

This 'colorful potion' can temporarily change your hair color and eye pupils to the color of the potion, which lasts for 6 hours.

With the 'eye demon potion' in my hand and the completed summoning circle blueprint, I can summon sequence 2 eye demons by myself. They look cute and can help you attack and detect. They last for one day.

There is also the 'Pumpkin Head Potion', which can temporarily turn your head into a pumpkin-like orange color, and then burst into flames. It is very majestic~

'Firefly Potion', as long as you open the bottle cap, you can see fireflies slowly floating out all over the sky. It is a treasure that creates a romantic atmosphere.

These three-phase moon exchange students also use their own expertise to operate and promote unique services and products.

On the other side, in the temporary castle built by the academy, several tourists are wearing the cloaks and crowns of ancient kings, experiencing a brief king's experience. The nearly a hundred maids standing on both sides of the hall have unified and neat postures. They are proud of these The king served the prepared food and waited for his orders. Occasionally, people acting as assassins would rush in and block these maids, protecting the king's transfer and enjoying the fun of role-playing.

After half a tour, the tourists entered the restaurant inside the academy to experience the various and unique delicacies in Edes Academy. Many people also took photos here.

After a short break at noon, the tourists continued along the road, and then gradually came to the lake and vast grassland at the back of the academy. There were many animals here, including the mighty and ferocious black lion, and the saint who swam in the lake. White swans, chestnut-feathered falcons swooping down from the treetops, green forest deer running across the grass, etc.

These extraordinary animals were raised by Toyoi Academy. After joint training with Eds Academy, many of them were transferred to Eds Academy with the students. Visitors can pay a small fee to get close to these extraordinary animals, and even Sit on the back of the Kururiha Falcon and take a short tour overlooking the beautiful scenery of the entire campus.

In addition, there are students painting for tourists by the lake, a venue that allows tourists and current students to safely experience the battle, a viewing hall to watch campus documentaries, an archive to visit the school’s graduating seniors and glory trophies, and to see Eds. The scene of the advanced scientific research capability laboratory in the academy, etc.

At night, tens of thousands of people gathered in the music hall in Edes Academy. After they took their seats, the lights gradually dimmed, followed by a brief introduction and announcement by the host, and then the performance officially began.

A golden halo hit the stage paved with red carpet, and in the eyes of everyone's expectant eyes, a slender and dreamy figure slowly walked out.

Her neatly combed long hair was tied behind her back, as smooth and beautiful as satin, with a simple blue bow embellished on the back of her head. Two strands of hair fell in front of her body, and then she wore a black rose dress that contrasted strongly with the white shoulders and neck. , the chest is inlaid with magnificent sapphires, and then there is the bow ribbon that sets off the gems. There are black and blue folds on one side of the skirt of the lower body, and then there is the violin held up in the girl's hands. The slender fingers press the strings with one hand and hold the strings with the other. Holding the bow.

First she greeted everyone and saluted, and then the girl singer who attracted much attention slowly closed her eyes, stood in the only golden halo of the stage, and played the violin slowly.

The melody is full of high-spirited lightness from the beginning, like running in the season when the grass is fragrant and the flowers are fragrant. The body jumps up lightly and rotates freely with the wind.

Le quattro stagioni (The Four Seasons), the first movement of the concerto Le quattro stagioni (The Four Seasons) - Spring.

When the first part of the melody ended, the tone gradually became lower and slower, and then gradually accumulated emotion and power. When the second part of the melody was played, as the bow was pulled, a circle of lights suddenly lit up on the stage, and a row of people also held violins. The students appeared from the dim shadows. They were uniformed and wore warm red rose and white skirts. The bows in their hands were neat and uniform, and they had an indescribable power and appeal.

Immediately afterwards, when Tilan, who was standing in the center, played the bow and entered the third stage, another row of students holding violins appeared in the dim shadows. They were also uniformed in formal dresses. Just like the girl's followers, there were also Like one of the thousands of flowers blooming in spring, it shows the power and life of spring in these four seasons.

The moving melody sounded again and again, and each repetition pushed the momentum and atmosphere to a higher level. Rows and rows of students holding violins appeared on the stage. Until the end, nearly a thousand people dressed in fierce red roses and white Students in uniforms stand on the steps and fill the entire stage background.

The vast and unified violin melody played, and countless golden haloes danced on the stage, slowly flying up and flooding the entire music hall. The cheerful music was like an ocean. The originally light music became a torrent sweeping the world. , the golden sea of ​​flowers full of life broke through the blockade of winter, infecting and shocking everyone at the scene with the vigorous vitality of spring.

After a long time, the song was played, and there were still many spectators who were immersed in the lingering melody and couldn't help themselves. It was not until the girl on the stage bent down and bowed in thanks, that the warm applause made everyone wake up from a dream, and then they also joined in. This applause comes.

After this stunning opening performance, there were performances by various opera troupes and music groups on campus. Although it was not as shocking as Tilan's opening performance, the gentle rhythm also allowed the audience to slowly relax and feel lighthearted. Enjoy this performance with great emotion.

At the end of the performance, Hesia Tilan, the student representative, appeared on the stage again. At this time, she had changed into a dress embellished with dark red roses. Compared with the common bright red roses, the roses on her dress were like rustic rust. , like the brown-red precipitate after blood dries. Not all symbols are beautiful. Sometimes pain and history need to be remembered more.

The dark red roses are still pure, dotted on the parchment-like dress, like faded old photos, bringing a nostalgic atmosphere. The girl holding the microphone sings softly, and then the light slowly spreads, illuminating the figure around her. , one after another, the actors and students who had been on stage appeared one after another, and then joined in the soft chorus.

Keep on is an ancient, nostalgic and childlike song.

There is no grand narrative in the distance, no lyrics that are constantly exciting and agitating, but a slightly nostalgic sadness, which is the sadness of not being able to go back to childhood, saying goodbye to the separated childhood under the sunset, and waving away from the world of the past life.

Hundreds of years of decline and stagnation in the Four-leaf Crystal Star Territory are just like this memory with dark red rust, that gray and lonely ruined factory in the memory, that runway that no one is using anymore, that abandoned and empty classroom, that I can't go back to my distant hometown.

In this melody with memories and nostalgia, tonight's performance also slowly came to an end. Perhaps many years later, people can still see the images recorded tonight in the archives and sigh with emotion at the node of all changes.

At the end of December, another winter festival competition was held as scheduled. At the competition site, Edes Academy launched a new school badge and logo. Different from the previous coat of arms with blue and black roses, the new coat of arms has, It is two roses of dark blue and dark red, dotted with some green leaves between them. The background is a parchment-like shield, and underneath is a black ribbon with Edes's name written on it.

Also in this year, St. Ingo Academy announced that it would close and its assets, personnel, students, campus, etc., would be merged into Edes Academy. The two once separated academies were now merged into one again.

However, unlike in the past, the former directors of St. Ingo no longer hold any power. They have been stripped away from St. Ingo, and St. Ingo is only left as a campus entity and merged into Edes Academy. .

St. Ingo students who have not yet graduated are still studying at the St. Ingo campus, but starting from next year, all new students will start living and studying in Edes Academy, and the St. Ingo campus will be gradually renovated after all students graduate. It is the branch area of ​​Edes Academy, and the regional module is raised and moved next to Edes Academy. The two campuses are merged and connected to become a new large-scale academy.

The past and the new life are reincarnated here, and in the future, Edes Academy and the Four-leaf Crystal Star Field will continue to move forward (keep on).
