Mag-log inCharlie couldn't care less and said, "Just do as I say. The wire is the issue—it's going to snap soon!"With just a thought, he projected a burst of Reiki and sliced off the wire behind Tanya.At the same time, he released more to catch Tanya and hold her steady like invisible hands.However, the crew thought Charlie was being ridiculous—they were using a steel wire that could hold over 800kg. So how was it going to snap?The stage director was naturally going to argue when they all saw the wire snap.His knees almost buckling from terror, the stage director cried out in despair, "Oh, it's over… It's all over! Mercy on Tanya's soul…"Tanya herself was still fighting against the wire when she felt the pull disappear, and screamed in shock as she fell forward at the truss.Fortunately, she hadn't started singing and the sound master had yet to turn on her mic volume, or the entire stadium would have heard her scream.Tanya then turned and felt her legs shake when she saw the wire
Meanwhile, the backstage was pure chaos.They had meticulously prepared such a dramatic entrance, but if the wire didn't extend and pull her up, leaving her dangling mid-air, they'd be embarrassing themselves the world over.Heck, after they rescued Tanya, her performance would have yet to start when the incident made entertainment headlines around the globe.But given the present circumstances, it was almost impossible to save Tanya, too—her wire was attached to an electric winch.It was connected to a wired panel backstage, and the crew was scrambling to push the button to extend the wire.Usually, they would visually confirm the wire tightness and slowly extend the wire as Tanya descended, like how a rock climber would have a spotter adjusting their rappel.But now, for some reason, the winch was malfunctioning, and they couldn't tell if it was the panel, the machinery, or the power supply. After all, the design concept of winches was to stop dead when power is cut off to av
Feng Shui Consultant was a cover. Aside from getting changed for his backup dancer role, Charlie basically had nothing to do.There were also ninety minutes until he took the stage, as Quinn would only be going onstage an hour after Tanya's concert began, and another thirty minutes until Quinn's last song.Weaving through the gaps between various large stage equipment, he was amazed by the endless crowds in the national stadium. It was truly unprecedented for a single star to have such tremendous influence and fanbase.At 7:20 p.m., the last fans entered the stadium.The huge screen on the back of the stage was one huge structure, kept standing with a single-direction bearing.If the wire extended, the dozens feet high truss would slowly tilt forward, which would definitely be a shocking sight for many when it happens out of the blue.Tanya had reached the top of the stage with the backstage lift after the crew had tied her to the wire.When she appeared on stage and the screen
The next day, when Tanya's Eastcliff concert was about to start, traffic departments sent notifications early on about heavy congestion. The national stadium was itself filled to the brim with fans from across the country and other corners of the globe, with some popular streamers even setting up livestreams on the spot. Despite being such a veteran performer, Tanya was somehow nervous for once.After all, it wasn't just Oskia's largest concert hall… She was going to share a stage with Charlie, and words couldn't begin to describe the excitement she felt from that.Quinn was also getting nervous, just like Tanya, despite having performed in front of a huge audience many times.Hence, as they were just thirty minutes before the concert started, Tanya and Quinn had a little girl's talk in their dressing room, with Tanya asking, "So, your farewell tour will be held here, too?""Yeah," Quinn smiled and nodded. "I planned it months ago.""How long until then?""Forty-ish days, giv
As Charlie was instructed, he dropped his sword and held Quinn's face with both hands.She was still singing as the Maiden, reluctant to see the Assassin leave and intent on living out their days in secluded peace.Charlie pointed at the screen of the citizens suffering and gently pushed her away, picking up his sword and leaving without looking back.Quinn gave chase, hugging his waist and still singing—begging for him to stay, but he pried her hands away and continued forward in great strides.As instructed, he walked toward the screen and 'arrived' at the battlefield, where the Tyrant himself led the massacre of his own people.Another group of dancers took the stage, led by an enemy general, while the Tyrant stood behind his soldiers with a smug smile.As instructed, Charlie charged into the ranks of the enemy general's forces, cutting down everyone in his way and eventually claiming the head of the enemy general.There was a sharp pause, and suddenly, it was Tanya singing.
Charlie thought he should put up a good show since he was here, anyway.He just had to do what Quinn asked, and the rest didn't matter.The crew was ready on the stage, and many of them were distracted when Charlie appeared in his costume.However they imagined it, Charlie really had the appearance of an ancient warrior, and it looked to the crew like one had truly manifested.Naturally, it was not just his costume, but it was everything from his gait to his mannerisms. As a powerful cultivator, he was naturally very different from actors whose martial arts were at best performative, and that was what the crew immediately noticed.To avoid leaks, Quinn, Tanya, and Charlie were all given wireless mics. The choreographer then came and instructed them, "Once Ms. Golding's second song ends, we will be playing a behind-the-scenes video for a few minutes. Please quickly proceed backstage for the change of clothes. Tanya and Dancer One will be waiting in turn at the elevator."Charlie
Still, Carl could hardly contain his excitement as he exclaimed, "It's an honor to meet you, Mr. Rothschild! I'm Carl Lucas, CEO of Horizon! Just call me Carl if you like!"Julien nodded and shook his hand before saying, "Greetings, Carl. I'm sure you understand why I'm here, so let's start a prope
