The eerie sound of the screams that the Cursed Bell Fairy Mavros is scattering made everyone's body shiver. The song was a cursed song that can destroy the confidence of any being that hears it. It not only demoralizes you, but it also feeds those affected with a vision of their greatest fears. The players that were unable to block out the effects of the song were screaming as they were being shown their worst nightmares.
The effects of the Cursed Opera: Lament was so incredible that it could even affect those that are unaffected by nightmares like the undead. The undead players that thought that they could never be subjected to status ailments due to their body are experiencing what it is like to be trapped in a nightmare. The cursed song was too powerful that even Adrian had to hide inside the pocket dimension as he saw his soulbounds affected by the spell that the Cursed Bell Fairy Mavros used.
"Yes! That is it! That is what all of you should be feeling!" The Cursed Bell Fairy Mavros thought to herself as she released more horrendous singing.
The Cursed Bell Fairy Mavros thought that she would be the one that will destroy everyone in the area as she even made the demon escape to another dimension. She could see all the proud fairies that wanted her dead writhing on the ground as they could not take on her attack. She needed to complete her execution of the fairy royalty in order for her to truly take the throne after she devours the energy of the young world tree.
Just as the Cursed Bell Fairy Mavros thought that she will now win, a powerful beautiful melody could be heard from the people being protected by Hexy. Since the attack of the Cursed Bell Fairy Mavros could not be stopped, Hexy could only deploy a large shield that can protect the people or rather decrease the effects of the Cursed Opera: Lament by half. The players still had to close their ears, but they did not need to stuff it with something like the others trying to escape from the effects of skill.
One of the support players could hear the voice of her goddess speak to her ears as if she was there near her. She was not an incredibly great player, but she managed to become part of the Pantheon guild as she was picked for her rare class. Her rare class was Muse which is a rare magic class that used instruments as weapons.
She was picked by Levin Cloud because she was a rare buffer mage type player that can even attack via sound. It is said that she is even favored by the Goddess of Music Euterpe, but she did not even know that. Levin Cloud and Adrian knew because they could see the silhouette of a goddess from behind her as if she was being guided. They did not know the goddess until Adrian confirmed it himself by praying to the temple in Avalon.
"Protect them from the unbearable sound, my child. Be the muse that I have foreseen you to be." The Goddess of Music Euterpe whispered to Musika, the player that she looks favorably.
Musika did not know but the reason that she was also taken in by the Pantheon guild is due to the essay that she submitted when they were asked to narrate why they are playing the game. Some of the recruits thought that this was not needed but this is actually Adrian's test. Adrian chose her to be in the last line up because she wrote that she wanted to play music again because she could not easily do so in the real world.
This answer resonated with Adrian as he also played the game back then because he wanted something out of it than just having fun. She always thought that she was chosen because of her job class and was pitied but she eventually enjoyed the atmosphere in the Pantheon guild. She has joined previous guilds before but was kicked out because she was shy, and her job class is not like others.The Muse class was not a normal magic class that can use burst damage. She also cannot do powerful buffs like priest class but what they can do is be consistent. The powers of the Muse job class excel in prolonged combat just like now as her passive skill finally kicked in. The passive skill of the Muse job class called Prolonged Performance kicks in when at least two hours have already passed.
[Prolonged Performance have been activated.]
[Transforming the Muse Job Class into the Diva as per the Muse' decision.]
The simple robed clothing of Musika suddenly turned into a beautiful dress made of silk, gems, and precious metals. Her look also changed from that of a refined and polished lady to that of an exceedingly beautiful and charismatic lady. The Cello that she used as a weapon also became smaller as it turned into a violin that has a beautiful chamber that exuded prime elegance.
[You have transformed into the Diva for 20 minutes.]
[All offensive skills and attacks will deal 200% more damage but cannot crit.]
[All buffs will be prolonged by twice the duration and have double the effects.] Musika's eyes looked determined as she took the bow of the violin and played. A beautiful sound could be heard all around as if the music she was playing was amplified by the air itself. The horrendous song that the Cursed Bell Fairy Mavros is using suddenly started to deafen. The beautiful, serene notes of the song that Musika played lessened the effects of the Cursed Opera: Lament.
The Cursed Bell Fairy Mavros noticed this and raised her eyebrows as she spotted Musika in the crowd behind Hexy. She was clearly a standout because of her beautiful and lavish dress but most of all due to her calm demeanor and the powerful magical aura that she was releasing. The Cursed Bell Fairy Mavros could feel that another being like her was in the area. A being that could govern over sound and frequency, but the only difference is that Musika was not a fairy.
Seeing that her cursed noise was getting pushed back, the Cursed Bell Fairy Mavros decided to punish the one that dared to go against her. The mouths that floated around the Cursed Bell Fairy Mavros suddenly gathered more in the area where Musika was. This change made Hexy feel even more pressure as she was the one protecting Musika against the effects of the cursed noise. Just as the barrier that Hexy created was about to get destroyed, the music that Musika was playing suddenly started to change.
The previous song was calm and serene as it had a slow tempo, but the next song was vastly different. The next song that Musika played was incredibly fast to the point that you could see her vigorously using the bow of the violin. This change of tempo also did changes to the effects that Musika released in the area. When the calm and peaceful song was playing, she was able to reduce the effects of the Cursed Opera: Lament.
When the song changed with a fast tempo, the air itself suddenly vibrated around the barrier that Hexy was maintaining. Hexy suddenly felt that the pressure against the barrier decreased by a large margin as if the sound waves were not reaching it. Musika opened her eyes, and they resembled golden music notes that terrified the Cursed Bell Fairy Mavros.
It was not the Cursed Bell Fairy Mavros herself that was afraid, but it was the essence of the power she absorbed that is terrified. The eyes as music notes are a characteristic of a demigod race known as the Mousai. Musika might not be a full blooded Mousai as of now, but she certainly has the blood in her as they were a race that had full control over sound.
"Kill her! She must not become more powerful." A strange voice of inside the head of the Cursed Bell Fairy Mavros could be heard.
"You do not need to tell me as I will really do it!" The Cursed Bell Fairy Mavros shouted as she actually forgot that she was in a battlefield.
"Deadly Arts: Black Butterfly's Touch." Awraka stated as she suddenly appeared behind the Cursed Bell Fairy Mavros and plunged her clawed finger into the previous area that she successfully attacked earlier.
The Cursed Bell Fairy Mavros is in shock as she did not notice the being with deadly killing intent behind her. She was too focused on the Muse that she forgot that there were assassins that can go inside shadows. The Cursed Bell Fairy Mavros suddenly thought why she forgot and that is because of the descendant of the Mousai below her. Musika smiled as she successfully did what she wanted to do and that is for the Cursed Bell Fairy Mavros to focus
only on her.
