Lin Ke entered the study with John, who looked as usual, and Sophie, whose cheeks were flushed red.
Just as Sophie entered the room with a mix of anxiety, anticipation, excitent, and other complex emotions.
Lin Ke sat by the desk, took out paper and pen, and began to write.
Sophie and John stood there dumbfounded.
"Well, Sophie, I’ll write a song for you, and you can sing it for ... or I’ll co up with a few more."
Lin Ke sat down, picked up a quill, and then said, "Sophie, co here, I’ll teach you sothing called the five-line staff... John, go get so glasses of milk, no sugar, and I’ll teach you sothing else too."
John and Sophie exchanged a glance.
"What are you standing there for?" Lin Ke turned back, and they both stood there dazed.
"Yes, Young Master!" John and Sophie replied in unison, and then John went out to prepare the milk, while Sophie took tiny steps over.
Lin Ke pulled out so high-quality, thick plant-fiber paper and drew the five-line staff on it.
"This is the five-line staff, as the na suggests, it has five lines..."
Lin Ke finished drawing the five lines, then pointed to the other side of the table and said to Sophie, "You draw it too."
Sophie imdiately realized that coming to the room this ti was for serious business, so she picked up a quill and drew five straight lines.
"Draw this below the first line..."
Lin Ke began to teach Sophie hand in hand how to draw musical notes.
The five-line staff holds a significant position in the music history of the forr world; it allows music to be more easily, accurately, and comprehensively recorded on paper.
For example, Gong, Shang, Jue, Zhi, and Yu also record music, but they are not as comprehensive as "Do Re Mi Fa So La Ti Do".
In Lin Ke’s profession, none had characteristics related to music, so after much thought, it would be better for Sophie to receive this feedback.
Perhaps it will be considerable feedback.
Sophie also sensed that Lin Ke seed to be teaching her sothing remarkable, and her expression beca serious.
"This little thing represents a note, and the notes between and on each line represent a certain kind of pronunciation..."
Lin Ke began teaching the knowledge of the five-line staff one by one.
The application of the five-line staff includes Western instrunts such as the piano and violin, and so songs without lyrics can also be chanted through the five-line staff.
While recording on paper, Sophie listened to Lin Ke’s humming, and her eyes gradually filled with shock.
So amazing! So outstanding! So unbelievable!
Young Master Lin Ke actually converted music from sound to image with just five lines!
Why hadn’t she thought of such a simple and practical thod before!
Her initial respect and slight affection for Lin Ke had now turned into deep admiration.
"Young Master, so ’The Sun Never Sets’ can also be notated through the five-line staff?"
Sophie imdiately understood Lin Ke’s aning.
This was to have her compose Naseng’s first five-line staff!
"Yes, this is what you deserve. Loyal people should have loyal rewards, plus you’re now my follower, not just a maid anymore."
Lin Ke smiled, stood up from his seat, then pointed to the chair: "Co, sit and write; I want to see how much feedback you will gain, hmm, any ideas?"
Sophie gently bit her lip, sat down, but then stood up again, looking seriously at Lin Ke: "Young Master, you invented it, the feedback should not belong to , it’s yours!"
Lin Ke sighed gently, recalling the scene where his followers wanted to shield him from the Legendary Giant Snake, and patted Sophie’s shoulder: "Sit down, since you beca my follower, we share the sa destiny, this feedback for you and is the sa, or rather... better for you!"
Sharing the sa destiny...
Sophie pondered on these words, unable to say her refusal, but she also made so decisions in her heart and said:
"Young Master, concerning the [Knight], the core belief I chose is..."
"You don’t need to tell ."
Lin Ke looked directly into Sophie’s eyes: "The core belief is what supports you. I only need to know that you remain loyal to ."
Sophie nodded lightly: "Okay..."
Only then was Lin Ke satisfied; he went to the bookshelf to find a book to read, leaving Sophie there to write the music score.
He read for a while on books about musical instrunts, discovering that Naseng’s top two related professionals were a level 20 Giant Elephant Race [War Drum Priest] from the Holy Life Alliance and a Legendary rfolk Race [Harp Fairy] from the Eternal Freeze Court.
The Gula Kingdom didn’t have any strong individuals related to music or sound, or rather, such auxiliary professions were quite rare throughout Naseng.
Of course, so soundwave attacks were powerful too, but that required reaching a certain strength.
After all, relying on soundwaves to kill soone might not be as quick as chopping with a knife, leading most sound-related professions to be auxiliary.
But truly, the most suitable place for sound is life, not battle.
Just like guns are most suitable for killing rather than lighting a cigarette.
The sound produced by instrunts, the sound produced by humans, the sound produced by everything, is all music.
Since there are no instrunts here yet, Lin Ke took all this feedback, and the music score was given to Sophie; it was just right to get so instrunts through Lamiel.
However...
"In the end, strength is still important..." Lin Ke sighed lightly, feeling a sense of helplessness lingering in his heart.
He still had plenty of ti, a lot of ti.
But the continuous stream of events left him with no ti to spare.
Even now.
The feedback he received from the invention of papermaking was enough to support him to reach level eight, even though he practiced every day using the Divine Artifact fragnt "Rotten Wood", he was still only level four.
And [Knight] was the sa.
If given a few years, he would definitely be stronger!
"Hmm, no rush... now I just need to accumulate resources and wait to proclaim king." Lin Ke took a deep breath, exhaled slowly, and put the book "Vulano’s Legend" back on the shelf.
The things taken by the Eldest Prince from his hands, he was too weak, he admitted.
But in the future, no one would easily take anything from him!
Just as he thought, an unknown force acted upon Lin Ke.
Lin Ke involuntarily closed his eyes, only feeling a light, blissful sensation throughout his body.
After a while, he opened his eyes.
"Is this... feedback?"
Lin Ke felt it and roughly estimated that his [Scholar]’s limit expanded from level eight to slightly over level nine.
"Yes, Young Master! The feedback I received is enough to support reaching level nine!"
Sophie ran over joyfully, wanting to give Lin Ke a hug, but rembering her identity, stopped awkwardly, then looked at Lin Ke with a face full of joy.
If it were Lolita, she might have boldly walked over to give Lin Ke a bear hug, perhaps even forcibly kissed him.
Sophie was too shy and reserved.
Lin Ke didn’t notice Sophie’s change in expression, but he was sowhat surprised: "Level nine?"
The invention of papermaking only gave him feedback to level eight, how did the five-line staff reach level nine?
Sophie nodded gently, her face flushed: "Yes, maybe because of the song I composed, ’Territory of Destiny’..." her voice grew quieter.
"A new song?"
"Mm."
"What’s it called?"
"Destiny!"
