Chapter 847 - 46 The Silent Quartet of Songstresses_2
"This guest is a friend of manager Aileen, and I've heard he often travels to various Star Domains and has extensive hotel living experience," a colleague nearby reminded.
"Alright, alright, I got it. Make a note of it and later have a word with the kitchen; we're short on staff right now. Serve him more fruit during his stay, and once he leaves, we can withdraw that," the speaker suggested.
Observing the bustling staff, the four of them were quite curious and intrigued. They had all experienced hotel stays before, but this was their first time witnessing the preparation stage, and they found the staff's gripes particularly amusing.
Noticing new faces in the lobby, the supervisor who had just received the report from her colleague approached them.
"Hello, may I ask who you four are?" she asked with a cursory glance, quickly making a judgement.
"We are here for the symphony orchestra rehearsal," Shui Yanqing stepped forward, first bowing, then introducing themselves.
"Oh, you're with the orchestra. They're currently on the fifth floor at the 'Golden Hall'," she said and then looked around, beckoning a colleague over.
"Lulu, you lead them there to register, oh right, identity registration is needed first because the hotel is too large, we need to keep track of who comes and goes," she brought out a handheld identity verifier and approached the wrists of the four to easily read their personal information.
'Shui Fengqin, Oslei, Buqi, Dantalion, please~' After recording the information of the four ladies, she made a professional gesture of welcome.
After leaving the main hall, they followed Lulu, a young girl, into the elevator, and quickly they arrived at the fifth floor. Stepping out of the elevator, they could see the massive trunk of a tree beyond the railing.
"Please follow this way, and here we have lightweight hoverboards. Step on them and say the command, and they will take you to your destination," she said, leading them to the side where several hoverboards with semicircular guardrails were parked.
On the way, Lulu looked at the four and curiously asked, "Are you students?" After all, Academy City is full of young people who are mostly university students.
"Yes," they replied.
"That's nice," she said with a touch of envy.
"I started working right after high school. Only 2 people from my class went to university."
The four of them didn't quite know how to respond to that, so they just nodded silently.
"University is expensive but offers better prospects for the future. As for me, although the job I have now is not bad, the peak of the career would be to become a supervisor like I am now; managers and directors are all graduates from prestigious schools," she said with a shake of her head.
"No need to feel so down, if you want to study, you can save some money and go back to it later on," Tilan comforted.
"Thank you, I'm not really complaining though, I always found those complex math questions quite troublesome, and I doubt it would go well if I started learning now," she said.
"Still, sometimes I can't help but feel a bit envious," she continued, moving forward and then helping the four of them open up the side door to the music hall.
Entering the music hall with its gold and red decor, they were immediately greeted by the sounds of the orchestra practicing. The space was specially designed to allow the team performing on stage to clearly project their sound throughout the venue without creating disruptive echoes.
On the stage, the orchestra was rehearsing, and with close to three hundred musicians seated, the scene was grand and impressive.
Lulu led the four through the seats of the music hall to the front row and exchanged a few words with a familiar coordinator who then stood up and turned around.
"Follow me," she said. She had deep purple shoulder-length hair and wore classic gemstone earrings, dressed in a black suit.
In a side room of the music hall where they closed the door, several people were already there, seemingly temporary replacements, currently familiarizing themselves with the music scores.
"I've checked your information, and it mostly fits, but we still need to verify it on-site," the professional opening suggested she was likely the orchestra's manager or external liaison.
"There are some spare instruments here, handle them gently, and let's take turns," she instructed.
"Yes," they responded.
Then the four looked around and picked out the instruments they needed.
"First, you," she pointed to Oslei.
Even after changing their outfits, Oslei still stood out, especially with the pointed ears on the side of her face, a telling sign of her Elf heritage.
Supporting a violin with one hand and holding the bow with the other, Oslei closed her eyes slightly, tried a few notes, and quickly got into the groove.
Amazing, thought Tilan, listening to Oslei's performance, surprised at witnessing her play the violin for the first time. It was exceedingly professional and of high caliber, even seemingly close to Andusia's level of skill.
It was said by Lady Isabella that before Andusia retired, she was indeed among the top musicians in the Central Star Domain.
As they listened to her play, the others in the room ceased their activities, captivated, and looked towards Oslei. Witnessing the Elf girl with her neck slightly arched like a swan during her performance, her golden hair shone with a sacred light under the illumination.
After finishing the piece, applause erupted in the room; their musical background made them keenly aware of the quality of her performance.
"Very impressive, very good, quite remarkable," clapped the manager, taking another careful look at Oslei.
"It's a pity we need to follow the organizer's plan this time; otherwise, putting you on stage for a solo would likely be spectacular," she expressed regretfully.
