"As you all know, the school festival is coming up, and I expect you to have perfected this by now" Fredrick screamed.
"What are you entertainers or cowards" He continued blabbing.
Well, as long as he got his job done, I didn't have an issue.
It took a week to become his favorite student.
"Please my dear Alessandro, can you play it one more time for these barbarians to know how it should sound like" He said smiling at me?
I sighed, this was the ninth time I was playing this just this morning, give me a break.
{The egg of the snake}└ My ears hurt.
{The one who wanks}└ Please kill me
{hot air balloons of the universe}└ It is actually nice if you ask me
{The one who rocks}└ Nobody did
{The dark serpent of ends}└ I thought you were supposed to be entertaining us, not killing us.
Notifications filled my screen as I finished the note, dropping the violin.
"Thank you, now again from the top" He said, filling the other students.
"That it am done, father, your son have no talent" A student screamed out.
"No way we can do that, he just took gifted like a god" Another student protested.
"You cowards, you will pay for this" Fredrick screamed at them.
"I guess you leave me no choice then" He turned to me.
I was currently in the corner of the room, sitting as I snacked on some candies.
Well, if it was another student, they could have got eaten up, but why would he want to do that to his only hope of not losing his job?
"Alessandro, my boy, I have a request" He said as I turned to him.
"Hum?" I said with a mouth full of candy.
"What do you say of soloing the performance" He said smiling
"What?"
"What?"
{The one who rocks}└ What?
"Me?" I said surprised.
I knew I was running out of time and was going to use the festive to draw close to the queen during the performance, but this was the golden opportunity.
"Yes you my boy, think about the stage filled with nobles eager to hear you play, it will be magnificent" He said.
"Sure, no p"
"No p?" He asked.
"No problem sir" I replied as I got up.
I spent the next few days just slouching off and eating.
The day of the competition arrived soon enough, it was a three-day run where various activities were going to be performed.
It was also a way for the school to raise enough money to fund activities.
Music had been the highest find raising performance, and it was deeply watched and supervised by the Queen herself.
So I had to do a pre run of the performance in front of her first before actually doing it on the day after.
I was currently in a carriage as we arrived in front of the castle gate.
"So easy to control the world with just a stringy thingy" I said as my mind went to earth where artists were basically means to an end used in controlling a large number of people to do what they want and even how to feel.
The castle was rather large, far larger than it seems on the outside.
"Come on now we don't have time for admiring and staring" Fredrick said as he grabbed my arm pulling me.
I allowed myself to be pulled as I followed him through a long hall.
Soon enough, a couple of maids blocked our path.
"You must be groomed first before you can seek an audience with the queen."
{No germs, no pain}└ My boy sinks.
{The one who wanks}└ Maid on the right with a red hair, he's packing some huge tities.
I had to hold back my laugh as more comments filled my screen.
I was then led to another room where I had a bath and hair cut.
Likewise, I stared in the mirror, as it was actually the first time I really focused on my appearance.
Apart from my white pale skin, I was rather good-looking with my white hair cut nicely.
"Why were you wasting your potential on such a bitch that didn't even like your ass," I said to my reflection as I then walked out of the room.
I was escorted by the maids to a large ballroom, where I saw Fredrick waiting for me anxiously.
He hurried to me as soon as he saw me enter the room, adjusting my shirt and smiling at me before patting me on the shoulder.
He turned to the majestic figure who was sitting on a large throne with maids around her.
"Your highness, may I introduce to you one of my finest students, Alessandro lurtcroft and he will be performing the entire festive starting tomorrow" he said, bowing.
Murmuring filled the room.
I could see the queen squint her eyes looking at me rather unpleased by the information.
Who could blame her? Solo performing an entire event as a student was no easy job and one mess up could hurt not just me but the entire school.
The pressure was immense if I was still a 17-year-old teenager, but I had lived longer and have the backing of the most powerful cosmic beings and was their entertainer.
If I could handle that pressure, what was playing a couple of tones for some high school kids.
I bowed slightly as I picked up my violin, resting it on my shoulder as I began to play.
I wasn't even halfway through my performance as I could hear crying filling the room, I continued to play effortless as I stole glaces at the queen.
She continued to stare at me with total concentration, as if she wanted me to make a mistake.
"No hope loser, I got God level skill here" I thought to myself as I continued to play with even more seriousness.
Soon enough I finished my performance as I bowed to a quiet room, the queen got up from her throne, clapping at me as she walked down the stairs to meet me.
Others joined in the clapping as she lowered her head whispering in my ear, her soft smell filled my nose enticing me "you were so good, hope to see more tomorrow" As she walked back.
"Total control freak alert" I screamed in my head as I bowed.
"You want a show, am put up a show" I murmured as I walked out of the room with Fredrick gushing all over me.
"Back off creep"
