68 - Angela Young

When he came home with the children after the game, the children were still excited about what they saw and wanted to focus on cultivating. He was tired from using so much energy during the match that he preferred not to do anything stressful. His parents, when they saw the twins so engaged in cultivating, also took advantage of free time to improve their cultivation. Alex was feeling the slight effects of cultivation during work, since now he was more willing after hours of work. Normally he would need at least two cups of coffee in the afternoon in order to stay focused, but since he started cultivating, even though he was the person who spent the least amount of time cultivating, Alex only needed a cup of coffee to concentrate.

Aatrox was the only one who didn't want to cultivate, he knew that over-training would do more harm than good. So, while the family was training, he watched videos on youtube from the living room TV.

Among the videos he watched, there were videos of Jackson with some vlogs about interesting things, in some Aatrox he even had some light laughs. When he realized that he was laughing at some videos made by mortals, he became happy, since he realized that this kind of entertainment was new to him, who only thought about fighting irrationally in his past life. Little by little, Aatrox was embracing the culture and pleasures that mortals had.

He saw some videos of Kimmy, he liked to see that she played GoW too. Already in the videos of Naomi singing Aatrox thought he was seeing another person completely different from the shy girl he met. When she sang on the radio, he had noticed that she had a strong personality when she was singing, but the impression she had left on him of a shy girl was more striking. But now, in the videos where she just showed herself singing and didn't say anything, she gave the impression of being someone else.

After Aatrox saw some videos of Naomi, in the corner of the screen appeared the recommendation of a video that aroused a curiosity in him. When he opened the video, what came up was a pretty girl with eyes and light blue hair like water. Her hair was shoulder high, Aatrox tried to see if her hair was natural blue, but he saw that the roots were black, which surprisingly made her even more attractive. Even Aatrox, who had little information about love, was fascinated when he saw this girl on the screen.

The name of the channel was Angela Young and she had approximately 20 thousand subscribers, while the video had already passed the 1 million views despite having been sent just 3 days ago. Aatrox played the video to see what it was about and to his surprise, she would play a song. 

Aatrox watched her pick up a strange instrument that he had seen somewhere before. He couldn't remember where, but he looked very familiar. The girl started playing a song in a spectacular way. Only the sound produced by her using that instrument made him tremble, even though he didn't know much about music. But the surprise came when the girl started singing.

"Come up to meet you, tell you I'm sorry

You don't know how lovely you are

I had to find you, tell you I need you

Tell you I set you apart..."

She was singing a song that Aatrox didn't know about, the title said, "The Scientist". Throughout the song, Aatrox's body hair started to shiver, in the middle of the song the girl started to cry, she was singing and crying at the same time, but that just made the song more beautiful. Following the lyrics of the song, Aatrox could imagine that the girl had lost someone close to her and the song was reminding her. Even with Aatrox's sharp senses, he didn't notice when his eyes started to cry. The emotion that the girl was feeling was being completely passed on by the music, it was like the music was her native language.

When the song was over, the girl didn't say anything and just turned off the camera while crying. After the video stopped, Aatrox snapped back to reality. Touching his face, he felt hot, salty drops coming out of his eyes. 

"Why am I crying?" He thought he couldn't control his own emotions.

To see if this was only with him, Aatrox opened the comments of the video and there saw that all the people were saying the same thing.

[Jimmy: Did that happen to anyone else? When she started playing the song, my body shivered and even before the voice came out of her mouth, I could already feel a sour feeling in my nose.]

[The Nameless One: I also couldn't help myself, when she started playing the song, I remembered my family that I hadn't seen in a long time. Without thinking twice, I opened the site and bought a plane ticket for this week. Thank you, Angela.]

[Macuel: Listening to this song reminded me of my ex-girlfriend...]

[Narstue: Angela be my wife, please! I'll give you home, food and clean clothes!!!!]

[Zhanye: OMG! You have the same name as the protagonist of my other book, is that a coincidence?]

...

Seeing that everyone was reacting just like him, Aatrox thought there was something wrong with the song, but he didn't know what it was. To confirm, Aatrox heard the song a second time. Even though he was already prepared, he cried again in the same way, but this time he could feel what was strange about this song. He couldn't feel it, but his instincts said that this song had some kind of energy. The same kind of energy he wanted to learn to use in his own music. But to make music that was recorded transmit this energy, Aatrox could only admire the talent of this Angela Young. 

He, who before was very excited to be able to practice in order to apply the energy to his own singing, felt a little suffocated when he heard Angela singing. But as someone who has dared to fight against the most powerful being in the universe, Aatrox was not afraid of a challenge. This video served to motivate him to practice even more so that one day he could sing and thrill the crowd as well as Angela.
