Chapter 98: 78. Betrayal and Support from the Oboe

[Points: 284,000]

Looking at this line of text, Dubian Che felt a sudden impulse to maximise his physical strength but still refrained.

Redeeming points for physical strength was a momentary affair; if he really needed more stamina, he could redeem it later.

In addition to saving points by training regularly, one could develop a healthy routine, exercise willpower, and gradually take on a confident appearance.

This wasn’t something that a mere 10 points of physical strength could provide.

A calm sea doesn’t produce skilled sailors, nor does a comfortable environment forge the great figures of an era... If possible, Dubian Che wished he could change his motto on the "College and Career Planning Survey" to this.

Thinking back now, the motto "I want the world to bow down before me" was truly embarrassing.

Dubian Che stepped back into the music classroom with a happy gait.

He looked around the room and found the leader of the Wind Instrument Club, "Minister Komatsu."

Komatsu Misaki turned around: "Mr. Dubian? Is there something you need from Kiyono?"

"It’s not that," Dubian Che said, "I’d like to apply to practice the oboe in your activity room."

After saying this, he added, "Please rest assured, I will definitely not interfere with your training and ensemble. If I cause any inconvenience, feel free to ask me to leave."

Komatsu Misaki smiled.

"Everyone practices without causing trouble to others, why would it be a problem if you joined, Mr. Dubian? Don’t worry about it. By the way, why don’t you just join the Wind Instrument Club?"

"Join the Wind Instrument Club?"

"Yes. If you join, you can use the classroom anytime, and you will also receive guidance from Ayane."

After Komatsu Misaki finished speaking, the person next to her with a madam-style hairstyle smiled gently at Dubian Che: "I’m Ayane Kumi, the principal of the Oboe & Bassoon section."

Dubian recognized her as the kind person who reminded him to find a teacher on Monday.

"Ayane, I’m a first-year, Dubian Che. If I join now, wouldn’t it cause you trouble?"

The entire Wind Instrument Club was currently focused on competition; asking someone to take out their precious time to coach a novice was too much of a bother.

If it wasn’t for the dilemma of explaining the source of his money, he could have just found a music teacher outside.

Komatsu Misaki laughed and put her hand on Ayane’s slim shoulder: "Ayane not only leads the Oboe & Bassoon section but is also the sole bassoon player. That means, whether Kiyono agrees or not, she needs to perform."

"Mizuki!" Ayane called out reluctantly.

Dubian Che had learned some basic knowledge about musical instruments and knew that many instruments require a specific embouchure.

For example, an oboist switching to another instrument often had to start from scratch, and if their embouchure habits weren’t ingrained, they might be forgotten.

Under such tough conditions, switching from an oboe to a bassoon and vice versa was a common choice, indicating many similarities between the two.

Komatsu Misaki’s suggestion for bassoon player Ayane to coach him wasn’t unfounded.

"But you shouldn’t underestimate our Ayane because of this," Komatsu Misaki proudly said, "Her skill level is unquestionably number one!"

"What about Mayi Asuka?" Ayane said, smiling.

"You two are tied for first!"

Ayane, ignoring the playful Komatsu Misaki, smiled warmly, "Mr. Dubian, I will guide you without affecting my own practice, and I hope you can join the Wind Instrument Club and the Oboe & Bassoon section."

"If that’s the case, then I’m in your debt."

Dubian Che didn’t ask why the oboe section member wasn’t coaching him; he had no intention of actually taking up someone’s training time anyway.

"Hold on!" Komatsu Misaki skipped away and quickly brought back a club application form.

After Dubian Che filled it out, she fist-pumped and exclaimed, "One step closer to the Wind Instrument Club’s domination of Goda!"

"What?" Dubian Che was taken aback by her declaration.

"That’s how it is..."

After Ayane explained, Dubian Che learned that Komatsu Misaki said so because she wished for everyone in the school to be a member of the Wind Instrument Club.

Of course, this was impossible.

The Wind Instrument Club didn’t pay salaries, didn’t offer partner-matchmaking, nor did they provide room and board.

After joining the club, Dubian Che followed Ayane to the training room of the Oboe & Bassoon section.

Smaller even than the bass section’s practice room, the description ’slightly larger than a palm’ was quite apt, and there wasn’t a single person inside.

Dubian Che didn’t ask where everyone was, but when lunch break was nearly over and it was still just him and Ayane in the room, he had a bad feeling.

"Ayane, where’s the oboe section member?"

Ayane put down her bassoon, which looked like a water pipe, and a hint of resignation flashed in her eyes: "Mr. Dubian, I hope you can pass this message to Kiyono: the oboe player, Sato Reiko, doesn’t intend to participate in the selection."

Even as the only oboe section member, with an ability level of just ’being able to play’ - because the oboe is difficult, many orchestras only require that level - she would definitely be selected for Group A.

But not participating in the selection was another matter.

Obviously, she was against Kiyono Lin becoming the advisor.

Things aren’t looking good at all.

However, Dubian Che smiled; he wanted to see how Kiyono Lin would solve this problem.

Things were certainly getting interesting today!

Later that afternoon, during the home economics class shared with class one and four, Dubian Che, stirring flour in his hands, drifted over to Kiyono Lin, diligently preparing ingredients while wearing an apron.
