He sighed helplessly, "Since the prince thinks so, I will dare to say a few words."
"Oh? What do you want to say?"
Princess Lucy wanted to see what Ling Tian could come up with, and the originally boring banquet actually became a bit more interesting in this turn of events.
"I also have some knowledge of music, and I have just heard that this piece has many flaws. Although it has a certain artistic conception that can immerse the listener, it is only the most superficial achievement and is not worthy of being considered a master."
Music is both elegant and spiritual. Only when the two are combined can it be considered true music; otherwise, it is nothing more than the random banging of instruments producing loud noise, which cannot be considered music.
Ling Tian scoffed and commented.
"you!"
Duke Louis clenched his fists in anger. Wasn't this implying that he didn't understand music? This was an insult to a vampire who had always been a musician.
It has been immersed in music for who knows how many years; you weren't even born when I was playing music!
Princess Lucy gave Duke Louis a warning look, and the latter could only retreat and dared not make a move.
The hierarchy among vampires is extremely strict, with each level representing a suppression of bloodline.
The latter simply couldn't muster the will to resist.
"If what you said is true, then your musical talent is exceptionally high?"
Prince Lucy was greatly intrigued; today's banquet was truly full of surprises.
I know a little bit about it.
Ling Tian said.
How do those people compare to you?
Princess Lucy pointed to the band from earlier.
"Comparing fireflies to the bright moon."
Ling Tian said confidently.
Duke Louis, standing to the side, turned ashen-purple.
"Could you play a piece for me?"
Ling Tian looked around and chuckled, "Today is Your Highness's birthday, and everyone here has presented gifts. I will then use this piece of music to celebrate your birthday."
"Do you need to borrow any musical instruments?"
"No need, I have my own musical instrument."
With a wave of his hand, Ling Tian summoned various musical instruments around him.
"Then... I shall make a fool of myself."
Ling Tian instantly entered the state and activated his Ghost Saint Composer skill.
In an instant, everyone present was drawn into the mood of the music.
Following the rise and fall of the music, it felt like experiencing a series of dreams.
The vampires listened with rapt attention, and even Duke Louis, who hated Ling Tian, had a rare smile on his face.
After an unknown amount of time, the song came to an end.
Ling Tian stopped playing, but the vampires present were still immersed in the beauty of the music and savoring it.
Three more minutes passed before they gradually came to their senses and spontaneously began to applaud.
Princess Lucy also jumped down from her throne and stood up, joining in the applause.
“Very good. After listening to your performance, compared with what you just said, it is indeed as you said. I will forgive your rudeness.”
Duke Louis sighed and said, "I acknowledge your musical talent, and your previous comments were the truth. I won't hold it against you. I just hope that we can exchange more ideas about music and art in the future."
At this point, it naturally won't act like a villain in a silly novel, blindly indulging in hatred.
There was no deep-seated hatred between the two sides, and with Prince Lucy's approval, it also had a way to back down without losing face.
Moreover, it sensed that this human was no ordinary being; the aura emanating from him was significantly stronger than its own.
What a freak! He's definitely not from this world. As a second-tier vampire, he's naturally heard about the recent changes in the vampire world.
That's why I dare to make this conclusion.
"Since Duke Louis has invited me, I will naturally not refuse. I apologize for my previous slip of the tongue. After all, musicians are always sharp-tongued, and one cannot achieve greater success without being strict with oneself."
Ling Tian is the kind of person who won't hit someone who's smiling.
"Sir, you are not from this world, are you?"
Princess Lucy reveals Ling Tian's true identity.
Ling Tian wasn't surprised. He had many strange traits, so it was normal for him to be recognized. Everyone was smart enough to recognize him, which made him very happy.
"Your Highness is right. I'm sure you're all aware of the recent turmoil in the world. I came to this world because I responded to the call of the strange voice."
Ling Tian nodded.
The other vampires also seemed thoughtful. They all knew that recently, many vampires, big and small, had been summoned to another world by a strange voice.
It's a pity that this summoning is random, otherwise they would like to go to other worlds to see what's different.
"Since you are a guest from a foreign land, I should observe the proper etiquette between host and guest. Please have a seat."
The white-haired loli waved her hand, following her instructions.
A vampire servant then stepped forward and offered Ling Tian a seat.
However, the seat's position is somewhat unusual, being located to the side of the throne.
The other vampires also looked surprised, but didn't say anything. After all, it was the prince's arrangement, and who would dare to disagree?
"Now that the gift-giving ceremony is over, it's time to begin the banquet."
The white-haired loli said.
The banquet then officially began.
One dish after another was served to the guests.
Ling Tian looked at the food on his table with little interest. He wasn't a vampire, so his eating habits naturally wouldn't be the same as theirs.
"It was my oversight. Go and prepare another human feast for the gentleman."
The white-haired loli was very sensible; she understood what Ling Tian was doing as soon as she noticed his actions.
Upon receiving the order, the kitchen staff, a dozen or so chefs, rushed to prepare the food.
In just over ten minutes, a delicious meal was prepared again.
"Thank you for your understanding, Your Highness."
Ling Tian thanked him, saying that the vampire was actually quite cute now, proving that lolis are the best.
I really want to go up and rub her tender face.
As the banquet progressed, the white-haired loli chatted with Ling Tian.
The questions asked were all about the situation in the bizarre world.
Ling Tian understood what the other person was thinking. No wonder she arranged for him to be by her side; it turned out she was gathering intelligence.
However, these are not things that cannot be said.
Ling Tian answered all her inquiries unless they were particularly unusual.
The white-haired loli also gained a simple understanding of the power behind Ling Tian.
With the latter's deliberate revelation, the white-haired loli learned that Ling Tian actually had two prince-level subordinates and was on good terms with many prince-level powerhouses.
Ling Tian couldn't help but laugh at the sight of the white-haired loli's shocked expression.
"Why is Your Highness so surprised? Your strength should place you among the top tier of experts even in the world of the supernatural."
Ling Tian inquired.
Princess Lucy glanced at the latter, hesitated for a moment, and then said, "Judging from your description, our world is simply incomparable to the strange world."
There are only about a hundred vampires of princely rank in the entire world, and judging from your description, there are several princes in just a small area, not to mention the numerous princes in larger areas.
Ling Tian was speechless upon hearing this; so that's what it was all about.
If you calculate it this way, the high-end combat power in the vampire world isn't that great. There are only about a hundred princes, and with his current influence, he can attract nearly a dozen more powerful villains.
His sphere of influence is only a small corner, insignificant compared to the entire realm of the supernatural.
