God Descends the Second Element

"Arima-kun, are you scared?"

Miyazono Kaoru reached out and patted Arima Kousei's shoulder gently. The latter smiled helplessly, straightened his crooked glasses, and said: "Although I am a little nervous, I can't compare to Miyazono-san. You are now My face is a little pale.”

Hearing this, Miyazono Kaoru's expression changed subtly, and he soon showed a smile full of vitality. He reached out and patted the other person's shoulder harder, and the patting made a sound, and he said with a smile on his face. : "Arima Kousei-kun, what did you say just now? I didn't hear it clearly. Could you please say it again?"

"Ahem, cough, cough... I just said that my opponent is very strong, but fortunately Miss Miyazono Kaoru is here, so there is nothing to worry about."

Feeling the heavy blow on his shoulder, Mr. Arima couldn't help coughing softly with his face flushed. He originally wanted to retort, but after noticing Miyazono Kaoru's dangerous smile, he gave up his thoughts.

Let’s forget it for now. Ever since they met, Arima Kousei felt that he had received a lot of “warm (violent) and soft (power)” service from Miyazono Kaoru.

Although the first group of players performed very well, they could not overshadow the others.

The players who are qualified to compete here have already proven themselves in many previous competitions. After all, the Fujiwa Music Conference is not just for everyone who wants to participate.

Today, musicians from all over the world gather here, including many talented people, all gathered here to compete with each other.

Several groups of players played astonishing classic pieces, and each player's basic skills were astonishing. Even Allen and Shelley, who were full of confidence in the championship at the beginning, now My confidence is not as strong as before.

"This music conference is really the right one! I kind of want to perform on stage again and continue to compete with them!"

Shelley looked at the musicians who were playing on the stage with excitement. Seeing Shelley's appearance, Allen helplessly stretched out his hand to hold his forehead, and said with a wry smile: "Shelley, don't be impulsive."

Allen was really worried that the other party would suddenly run up to him. After all, the same thing happened when the two were partners in the past.

However, he does not dislike this attitude of being obsessed with music, because Allen is also full of competitiveness, but he will not express what he is thinking on his face.

…

The contestants participating in this competition were all very strong, and the songs they brought to everyone were also very beautiful, which brought the atmosphere to a climax.

Time passed slowly in this warm atmosphere. Wang Hao took a look at the list of contestants. There was still the last group left. The contestants were Miyazono Kaoru and Arima Kousei.

Feeling the fluctuations in the depths of the sea of ​​consciousness, Wang Hao looked a little complicated and sighed slightly.

When the group of players on the stage left the stage, Arima Kousei and Miyazono Kaoru both came on the stage.

Because it was the last group to appear, everyone turned their attention to the stage.

The shining spotlight shone on the two of them. Facing the gaze of everyone in the audience, Mr. Arima turned a little pale, recalling the shadow of his childhood. He stopped for a moment, only a few steps away from the piano. .

His mother's criticism and beatings resurfaced in his mind, and Arima Kousei was at a loss as if he were drowning.

Kaoru Miyazono, who noticed the abnormality of Arima Kousei, also stopped and looked at the audience below with a smile. He quietly took two steps back and stood on the same level as Arima Kousei, taking advantage of the misplaced opportunity. He stretched out his hand and patted Arima Kousei's back gently, which brought Arima Kousei back to his senses immediately.

The next moment, Miyazono Kaoru whispered in a gentle voice that Arima Kousei had never heard before: "It's okay, don't be afraid, I will always be by your side."

After hearing Miyazono Kaoru's words, Arima Kousei was filled with courage again, because a ray of light shone into his dark world.

He is really a willful guy, just talking to himself and breaking into his world. He was obviously arrogant and arrogant before, but now he is so gentle. It is really foul.

It was as if he could see through his mind and always appeared at the most critical moment.

The next moment, Kaoru Miyazono smiled and bowed gently to everyone, and said in a clear voice: "The song we are going to bring today is "The Sorrow of Love" by Fritz Kreisler. Please invite everyone. Just calm down and appreciate it.”

As soon as they finished speaking, the two quickly took their places.

Miyazono Kaoru put the violin he carried on his left shoulder and held the bow with his right hand. Arima Kousei adjusted the height of the piano chair and sat on it, placing his hands gently on the keys.

The movements of both parties were very coordinated and tacit. They closed their eyes at the same time and whispered together silently: "Eloim Essaim Eloim Essaim, please listen to my request."

After a moment, they both opened their eyes at the same time.

The song "Sorrow of Love" has no prelude. The first half uses syncopated rhythm and dotted notes to develop the melody. The theme melody is quite clear.

The same sound appears constantly in each phrase, like a cry, but the melody is very beautiful and moving.

Kaoru Miyazono's hand holding the bow was full of rhythm, and Kousei Arima, the accompanist, also played the piano very softly and carefully, producing a beautiful tone.

Everything seemed to fall into place, as if it were natural.

The strong appeal filled the entire venue, and everyone was immersed in the wonderful melody. The sad mood gradually spread, and the melody was more lyrical, which reminded people of the days when they were with their lovers.

It is similar to the sister song "Joy of Love" played by Allen and Shelley just now. However, when this memory continues to develop, the thoughts in my mind continue to recede, and the happy scenes of those happy days reappear. Resurfaced.

When Miyazono Kaoru changed the second part of the music to the key of A major, he used the modulation technique very skillfully. The sound of the piano at this time was so soft and sweet, as if it were memories of past happiness and happiness.

Everyone was immersed in it, and the two people on the stage were so shining.

Miyazono Kaoru grasped the rhythm very well and did not let "Sorrow of Love" turn into "Joy of Love". The sad theme in the first half of the first part reappeared and took up the theme of the second part in the form of variations. The melody, the tone direction of each line is very accurate, making the melody more melodious and sad.

The style of Arima Kousei's accompaniment is full of softness and happiness, which is different from the melancholy mood played by Miyazono Kaoru, but the two are perfectly and strangely blended together.
