🎺 Chapter 1
/ Akira's room
Akira : (It's always raining lately, it's kind of depressing.)
* Trumpet sounds *
Akira : Hm...? There's a trumpet-like sound from the hallway.
/ Hallway
Rustica : Good afternoon, Master Sage. I can meet you in a place like this, it's wonderful.
Akira : I heard a fun song... Were you playing the trumpet just now?
Rustica : Yes, I was blowing it while thinking that I want to see you, Master Sage. I think the feeling that I put in the song was surely conveyed.
Akira : Did you need me for something?
Rustica : Soon, we are going to hear a performance of the sound of the rain with the trumpet in the lounge. Chloe, Murr, and Shylock will come as well.
Rustica : If you are fine with it, would you like to join us, Master Sage?
/ Lounge
Rustica : Thank you for taking the time to gather today.
Shylock : To hold a performance after the sound of the rain with the trumpet, that's just like Rustica to came up with pleasant ideas.
Murr : Yay, can't wait! When it's over, let's shoot out fireworks to celebrate!
Chloe : Ehh!? At least, do it outside...!
Akira : (The audience is so lively...)
When Rustica started playing, the song that I heard in the hallway has changed completely. Gentle tune of the raindrops and the trumpet enveloped the audience.

* Claps *
Akira : That was amazing! You can produce delicate sounds even with a trumpet.
Rustica : I'm honored by your compliment. Instruments, just like a living being, its tone color can change according to the mood.
Rustica : The tone color will be sad when performing with a sad heart, and it'll be joyful when performing with a joyful heart.
Rustica : Similiar with today, with a heart that feels like dancing with the dance of the raindrops, the tone color becomes what that heart projected on it.
Akira : Dance with the sound of the rain... Right, that was a melody that gushed forth such image.
Akira : (If I can hear this kind of amazing performance, maybe rainy day is not bad.)
* Crumbling sounds *
Akira : Eh!! The, the wall, there's a hole...!!
Bradley : That was a terrible situation...
Shylock : My, what an unusual guest. Did you come to listen to Rustica's performance as well?
Bradley : Ya got it wrong. Those twin gramps forced me to babysit Owen and Mithra. I'm glad I got away, barely.
Murr : So it was a life-threatening chase. It's fun when there's thrill! Count me in!
* Rustica plays the trumpet *
Bradley : I've told ya, I'm not here to listen to yer performance.
Rustica : That's probably the case. However, I was able to meet you here. I wonder if you'll let me put that joy into a melody.
Bradley : ...Well, just now my mood has changed. Lemme hear the prosperous good song.
