Chapter 739 'Topaz Lycoris' Arosa
Chapter 739 'Topaz Lycoris' Arosa
The southern star region, the gradual star field.
The red leaves all over the mountains sway slightly in the warm summer breeze, and the rolling leaves make a soothing sound.
Under the shade of the trees, Tilan, wearing a classical dress with a gradient of white and red, sat on a green rock among the fallen leaves. Her snow-white cloth shoes stepped on the dry leaves, revealing the slenderness of her feet, just like red plum blossoms and white snow that had fallen into the mortal world, untainted by the dust.
The girl looked at the dead branches by her ankles and could glimpse a few ants and small insects crawling by, living their comfortable lives. Occasionally, the girl would curiously use her fingers to push aside the dead leaves to look at the soil and specific insects underneath, watching them slowly move with interest.
If I were to describe Tilan's mood at the moment, it would probably be like the breeze on the sea of trees, quiet and agile.
People sometimes grow up unconsciously. She didn't know when she gradually let go of the heavy burdens, obsessions, cautions, and shadows of the past, just like a room with open windows, welcoming the summer breeze blowing through. Only occasionally, under the fluttering curtains, she could see faded photos scattered on the ground, recording the moments of the past.
There is nothing particularly entangled, no hysterical obsession, it seems that everything can be put down, and it seems that everything can be picked up. Even with a glass of ordinary cold water, you can feel the comfortable taste of the slightly cool throat.
I can try anything I’m interested in out of curiosity, and I can also let it go without any hesitation, without insisting on any results. I will now try on various clothes that I used to find embarrassing and troublesome with great interest.
Even Themisia felt that she was almost perfect.
"It's like a flower that has never been hurt or suppressed, and is free to stretch its buds and branches, slowly blooming, following its will, free and unfettered, yet just right, without damaging any of the plants along the way, as if it already knows everything, with a natural agility."
Faced with Tilan in such a state, Themisia's previously accumulated competitive spirit vanished into thin air, like facing the empty blue sky and white clouds, she felt powerless.
"I always feel that among the singers in history, few can reach your current level." Themisia commented.
"Ah."
There was no modesty or shyness, nor did she refute the doubt, but just a calm reply. Then the girl shifted her attention to the small fly flying by her feet, watching it flap its little wings in search of food in the messy soil.
Tilan herself didn't know what level of singer she was now, but she had never felt any difficulty, even when she raised the crown a few years ago.
The shadows of the trees in the forest slowly revolve around the sun, from the refreshing morning to the bright noon, and then to the breezy and cool afternoon.
The girl first sat in the woods and watched the tiny lives around her. Then she stepped lightly on the dead leaves and walked down the hillside between the trees, occasionally jumping lightly from one stone to another, naturally and normally.
She did this until the sun set in the west and the sunset glowed like a fire. Then she stopped and stood halfway up the mountain, watching the burning sunset.
Before it got dark, a woman slightly taller than Tilan came and stood beside her. The two of them watched the sun set together, and then left hand in hand.
In the new year, Tilan no longer continued to manage the huge affairs of the 'Emerald Dragon', but handed it over to the members of the mature team. After being freed, she was invited by 'Luoyunsha' Masha to come to the Jianxun star field for vacation and fun. Occasionally, the two of them would take a walk together and talk about what they saw and heard in life.
During this year, the situation in the Federation was stable, and all parties did not make any major moves. They just continued to make progress in the direction previously planned. The Federation's central star field invested in the construction of many new space stations, and used them to explore new resources and minerals, study planets with special environments, and test new space propulsion technologies.
The dragon vein system in the southern star region began to operate, especially the 'Emerald Skirt', which was the first planet to complete the construction of the dragon vein system in the first batch of plans. With the assistance of the dragon vein system, the ecological environment of the Emerald Skirt entered a rapid recovery stage. It is expected that in another 5 years, it will be able to fully recover to the vibrant state it was 400 years ago.
The economy of the Western Star Region has also developed well. After more than 8 years of catching up, the living standards of residents in the Western Star Region have gradually reached the same level as those in the Northern Star Region. It is no longer at the bottom. It just needs about 8 years to catch up with the Southern Star Region. If it wants to become a place as developed as the Central Star Region, it will need a new opportunity.
The three major factions in the Eastern Star Region are now each organizing economic development and cultural promotion and construction. Although there are occasional cracks, in general, there are no violent conflicts and they can still maintain superficial peace and friendship.
Except for a few planets and star regions in the northern star region that have undergone changes, most areas remain the same as they were ten years ago. They have no special ambition, and other star regions in the Federation do not have much thought about them because they are far away.
----
Time slowly came to the year 1269 of the Sixth Era.
Western star region, Hemu star field, Rose Palace.
"Your Majesty Blanche." The maid in a golden gauze dress hurried to the room where Blanche was resting, then bent down respectfully and waited.
"What's the matter?" Soon, Blanche walked out slowly. Her long, flowing golden hair was simply tied behind her, and she was wearing a white nightgown with gold embroidery.
"We have discovered a child with special talents in the Qiguyan star field. She, she should have the talent of a singer." There was excitement in the maid's voice at the end.
drop--
A slight shattering sound was heard in front of the maid, and she couldn't help but look up. She saw some golden fragments falling and then turning into fine sand and dissipating.
"Your Majesty..." She asked with some concern.
"Nothing, just mood swings."
Blanche pressed her chest with her slender fingers. The nails dug into her flesh, causing some pain, which made her slightly more conscious and she tried her best to calm herself down.
"I understand. Bring her... No, I'll go get her."
Two days later, a luxurious fleet arrived at the Qiguyan star field, and then the shuttle team carrying Blanche landed on the planet.
"This is it, Her Majesty Blanche." The local officials greeted the singer and her guards with great respect and awe, and took them to a camp at the foot of a valley.
The biggest feature of the inhabited planet 'Gas Rock-α' is its unique landform. Due to the active geothermal and volcanic activities, there are many high-temperature fountains on the planet, which heat the groundwater to steam. This provides the local area with a lot of cheap steam energy, which can be used to generate electricity. However, the power of this energy is not high, and because of the crustal activity, the environment is unstable. Large companies will not arrange expensive production lines on this planet, which led to poverty here for a time and they can only survive by relying on cheap and simple industrial products.
"Apart from that, the only industry here that is quite impressive is tourism." After entering the camp, the accompanying official continued to introduce.
Blanche nodded slightly, then waved for the secretary to come forward.
"Strive for three more development projects for the Qiguyan star region and provide additional investment assistance in the next twenty years." She understood what the official wanted but did not dare to say.
"Yes, Your Majesty." The secretary then wrote down the details.
"Thank you, Your Majesty Blanche." The officials from the star region present bowed together to express their gratitude, their voices excited.
Perhaps for Blanche, this is just a matter of words, but for this star field and the tens of millions of residents on this planet, it is a major event that completely changes their destiny.
"Is the child okay now?" At this time, Blanche had already sensed the vague soul consciousness, and her mood gradually calmed down.
"After we checked her, we took her over and followed the instructions to take care of her." After all, there were very few singing girls in the Western Star Region, and they were afraid of problems, so they simply protected her on the spot and did not move her randomly. "Very good." Blanche nodded slightly, and everyone had already walked to the door of the innermost room.
"You guys stop here, I'll go in alone." After she said that, the people accompanying her began to stand guard and protect on the spot, and then Blanche slowly opened the door.
The rooms here are simply and cleanly decorated. The floors and walls are covered with a soft soundproof blanket. There is a light yellow and warm light overhead. Below is a small bed, a table and chairs, a TV for watching movies and animations, and a number of scattered books.
A girl in a light yellow skirt was sitting on a chair with her back to the door, flipping through a picture album on her lap. When she heard the sound, she turned her head with a little curiosity.
She had flaxen hair similar to Blanche's but different, light blue eyes with a hint of curiosity, and a face that was a little chubby.
"What's your name?" Blanche slowly approached and asked in the gentlest voice possible.
She was wearing an elegant golden rose dress today, with beautiful patterns sewn with gold thread on the cuffs and hem. A few golden lines appeared on her fair wrists, which complemented the sun-like golden mark between her eyebrows, giving Blanche an otherworldly and sacred temperament.
"My name is Arosa." She said her name with a slight retroflex sound.
After saying this, the girl stood up with some fear and restraint, her eyes lowered, not daring to look at Blanche.
Blanche had indeed behaved very gently, but as a singer of the Radiant Sun class, her huge spiritual consciousness was as real as substance. Ordinary people might just feel in awe, but to this little girl who also possessed the talent of a singer, she was as dazzling and hot as a huge burning sun.
"Arosa? That's a good name." Blanche bent down, gently stroked the other person with one hand, and then carefully held her in her arms.
After a moment of silence, Blanche took Arosa's hand, and they both sat down beside the bed and asked about her condition.
"My family lives in a big cave at the foot of the mountain. It's warm there, not too cold in the winter, and there's a very comfortable breeze in the summer."
"How is your daily life? Do your family members laugh often?" Blanche lovingly helped her tidy up her clothes and hair.
"Home, home, I don't know, but my sister often takes me out to play, and we often laugh~" Arosa should have had a not-so-bad childhood.
"How old is your sister?"
"My sister is 15 years old this year and I am 9, but in another month, I will be 10 years old." Arosa said with a childish and proud voice.
"Very soon." Blanche opened her eyes slightly, feeling an indescribable relief.
In the history of the Rose Federation, there are no more than five people who have awakened their talent as a singer at the age of nine. If the other person had awakened a little later, she might not have seen him.
Afterwards, Blanche learned about the various details of Arosa's life in detail. Although children's concerns were fragmented, Blanche gradually pieced together the other's growth environment from these fragments.
It seems that Arosa's family is not rich. Her parents are usually busy with heavy work and pay little attention to their two children. Fortunately, the large cave where they live has a stable population and they are all acquaintances who have been interacting with each other for decades. Even if her parents do not have the energy to take care of them, the surrounding neighbors and families on the street will help look after them.
Since she was little, Arosa has followed her sister and played with a group of children in the big cave. There would be conflicts occasionally, but overall she has not encountered any bullying. After all, the elders from all the families around were watching and would come over to stop any problems.
Most of the people living here work for a nearby rock mining company, which mines the local bright yellow marble for making floors, furniture, etc., because some wealthy families prefer this raw stone and do not like various high-tech synthetic panels.
The treatment offered by local rock mining companies is mediocre to low, making it difficult for the residents here to become wealthy, but they will not fall into poverty either. It’s just that if someone in the family gets a serious illness, they may have to borrow money from friends and relatives to solve the problem.
While listening to Arosa's story, Blanche also talked about her life when she was studying in the Hemu Star Region.
"Sister Blanche, is there really a house that tall and that big?" Arosa described it with gestures.
"Yes, it's very high." Blanche smiled.
"Standing on it, you can see the scenery very far away." She blinked slightly, and her eyes seemed a little moist.
"Sister Blanche, why are you crying? Don't cry. Sister said that children who cry a lot will never grow up."
"Well, sister didn't cry, her eyes just felt a little uncomfortable." Blanche wiped them lightly with the back of her fingers.
"Arosa, do you want to go outside and see some very tall buildings and houses, and all kinds of delicious fruits and cakes?"
"I do, but my dad said that if I want to go out, I have to study hard. But studying is very tiring, and I'm not very good at it." She lowered her head with a little inferiority complex.
Seeing the appearance of this child, Blanche couldn't help shedding a few hot tears.
Why is she so similar to herself? Many singers are extremely intelligent, but she has always had average grades. Whether in junior high school, high school, or after becoming a singer and entering college, she could only watch with envy as the more talented classmates moved forward.
Because of her average talent, she had always been stumbling behind others, not daring to speak loudly or express herself. The only time she made an impulsive decision, she almost fell into the abyss, causing countless people to sacrifice for her.
This guilt was like a whip that kept driving her on, and finally turned into a strong sense of responsibility, forcing her to do her best to support the entire Western Star Region.
Taking a trembling deep breath, Blanche suppressed the urge to choke and tried to calm herself down.
Then she took Arosa's hand and slowly picked her up.
"Come on, sister will take you to see the outside world. Don't worry about things at home, they will be with you."
"Do you know that this planet is called Gas Rock because there are many boiling steam vents on the ground? And in the outside world, there are many different planets with completely different environments. For example, in my hometown, there are beautiful fields of rice seedlings and wheat. I used to like playing in the wheat fields with everyone during the holidays..." Blanche took her slowly out of the room.
……
"By the way, I can't always call you Arosa from now on. How about I give you a nickname?" Blanche took the girl's hand and walked in front of the crowd.
"Okay."
"I'll call you... 'Topaz Lycoris'."
"It is said that in ancient times, Lycoris was also called 'Manjushaka' in the East. It likes warm and humid places, and the yellow Lycoris flowers mean 'hope and rebirth'."
Everyone go to bed early~
