952: Chapter 69 The Girls’ Concert 952: Chapter 69 The Girls’ Concert This custom had been observed for thousands of years, but this year, an unexpected event occurred.
Due to the convening of conferences among various parties, in order to accommodate the different customs of various races and to maintain the cleanliness of the city to uphold the image of the nation, the Supre Council of the Neville Federation decided that this year’s Nightfall Festival in Neville City would not feature a parade celebration.
This decision was t with opposition from all city residents, and a large number of rchants also joined the backlash.
Eventually, after research and compromise by various parties within Neville, it was decided that the parade would continue, but the celebration, which had traditionally lasted all night, would be shortened to two hours.
Although the citizens were still filled with dissatisfaction, the Federation was not prepared to make further concessions, causing many citizens to harbor discontentnt toward the multi-party conferences.
As a result, in the evening, Pannis insisted on dragging everyone out, saying it was a rare opportunity, and he wanted to take everyone to experience the festive atmosphere of Neville.
Even the typically composed Queen Flare expressed support, so with no other choice, everyone was pulled out by Pannis, leaving only the scorpion-tailed lion Dillie and two little Undead behind at the temporary residence of the Earth Church.
Upon entering the main urban area, the administrative district, one of the three major zones, they saw an endless procession of brilliantly lit carriages and residents in festive attire radiating joy.
Although the parade had not yet started, many of the performative carriage stages had already sprung into action, with music intertwining and dancers starting to stretch their limbs and dance, thickening the celebratory atmosphere.
This large-scale scene also stirred delegates and escort teams from various races and foreign nations, who flocked to the streets to join the parade procession.
The leaders of these groups appeared to tacitly approve of this behavior, allowing these individuals to mingle with the local residents and imrse themselves in the revelry.
When the procession began to move, the atmosphere soared to a peak as tens of thousands of city residents followed the carriages, waving their flags and colored ribbons, slowly inching forward together.
In fact, the celebration activities were far from simple; there were as many as four processions of similar scale that would weave through the city from various directions.
Each procession had its own unique performances, and those who were interested in joining could simply stroll through a few streets in the administrative district or the Sleepless City to find traces of a particular procession.
anwhile, individuals with higher status also participated in the parade; however, they did not mix with those of lower status.
Instead, they rode in their own carriages, trailing at the end of a procession, enveloped by the crowd as they gradually moved forward.
Moreover, this was an important festival for rchants.
All businesses had hoarded a significant amount of goods for this day and operated throughout the night.
For most rchants, the revenue from one evening could match that of a couple of months, which is no wonder that when the Federation wanted to cancel or shorten the celebration, all the rchants joined the ranks of opposition.
Although the young ladies were sowhat reluctant when they were dragged out, they were quickly captivated by the fervent atmosphere around them and lded into the setting, following the procession and enjoying the sights.
When they were tired, hungry, or thirsty, they would casually choose a shop or tavern along the way to sit down, eat sothing, and have a few drinks.
Once they were rested and ready to venture out again, if the procession they had been following had moved on, they would simply switch to a different street and join another parade.
As a result, the girls inexplicably found themselves seduced by Pannis into drinking.
Aside from Vivian and Ava, who didn’t touch a drop due to health reasons, even Lina and Freya, who were both from the Caster Profession, drank quite a bit.
Initially, it was Pannis who tempted everyone to drink, but as the atmosphere heated up, the girls ntioned that the taste of the alcohol was good, they were feeling fine, and it was perfectly okay to drink more.
Eventually, it turned into a mindset that our condition was getting better, and nobody was allowed to stop us from drinking.
So, by the last ti they erged from a roadside tavern, the girls had started to weave along the road.
Staggering along the street that conveniently lay between the gaps of the caravan, Catherine, whose spirit had been extraordinarily excited by the sound of the nearby noisy music, felt dissatisfied with it and began to sing a Falar folk song.
As the nation of knights, Falar’s folk songs were inherently powerful.
When sung by a girl whose voice was strengthened by Aggression, it imdiately caused a significant shock to the nearby passersby.
After she finished, Lina, who had seldom drunk before, wore a dazed smile and started singing Holy Hymns.
The sacred song, perford with Lina’s ethereal voice, was extrely moving, attracting more and more onlookers to gather around the girls, making the uninford think there was another small caravan moving forward.
After Lina, it was Freya’s turn.
Half-sober, Freya, already possessing a deep level of opera skill and particularly suited for opera performances because of her physique, started to sing, instantly drawing thunderous applause.
Encouraged by the applause, the beautiful princess sang even more passionately.
As for Pannis, she walked excitedly behind the girls, holding Ava and Vivian’s hands on either side, showing no intention of stopping the girls’ enthusiastic display.
In fact, she even secretly had Vivian cast Sound Amplification Magic occasionally to make the songs carry farther.
More and more people gathered, more and more joined this small procession.
Many from different races and foreign nations also ca over, and soon almost all races from the Yarran World were present in the crowd.
Taking advantage of the high spirits, they took turns singing their race’s and region’s unique songs, filling the local residents of Neville with a sense of wonder.
But this was only the beginning.
What really pushed the atmosphere to its peak was the addition of Flare, who had also been plied with quite a bit of alcohol.
Her Majesty the Queen, whether in appearance, voice, or singing skill, was of the highest standard in the Yarran World.
When Flare plucked the strings and sang the first note, the increasingly noisy surroundings suddenly fell silent.
Under the night sky, only the Queen’s lodious voice lingered and, reinforced by Sound Amplification Magic, drifted into the distance, causing people in the nearby streets to stand rooted to the spot, as if they had lost their souls.
These ordinary citizens finally rembered, according to legend, an Elf’s song is the most enchanting on the Yarran Continent, and perhaps only the royal family from the deep sea could surpass them.
Of course, the singing alone wasn’t enough; how could there be songs without the accompanint of dance?
So, when a pair of wings, one black and one white, unfurled in the sky, the whole place erupted in excitent.
