[Comprehensive English and American] You have to pay rent even if you are a ghost

Although cellists were excluded from future career options, Raffaele did not give up his pursuit of music.

Before high school, Raffaele studied all kinds of musical instruments. Whether it was popular or unpopular, Raffaele's fraternity made Ben and Vivien feel helpless.And when they found that no matter what kind of instrument, Raffaele could master it in a short time, and the music they played was addictive, their helplessness turned into regret.

It's a pity that every year on Raphael's birthday, the couple will give their son an expensive musical instrument, which is not a big deal.As for Raffaele himself, the reason why he didn't have much savings in the bank-bank-card was inseparable from the fact that he was always throwing money away to buy musical instruments.

Before Raffaele entered high school, he had about [-] musical instruments, large and small. Ben and Vivienne specially set aside a room to store these musical instruments, and the maintenance at regular intervals was quite time-consuming and laborious.However, it was Raffaele's sole discretion, and he did not allow anyone to touch his instrument.

Raffaele pushed open the wooden door on one side of the bedroom wall.

With a small "creaking" sound, the door opened.

Inside is a room less than ten square meters, with white floral curtains hanging down, a wooden easel, a slightly pungent paint smell, and oil paintings hanging on the wall. What kind of music room is this? It's a studio!

Yes, after high school, Raffaele focused his energy on painting while Ben and Vivienne looked at the heartbroken.

Musical instruments, he plays them every now and then to entertain himself, but in his spare time he has devoted his energy to the study of oil painting, and once again mastered this art expression form that has no technical connection with music at a surprising speed.

The world's top famous paintings, the top ones in the ranking, Raffaele copied them one by one, and each painting looked almost exactly the same as the original.

The reason for "almost" is that it is a restoration under limited conditions, and the difference only exists in the canvas and paint.

Raffaele walked into the slightly cramped studio, where world-famous paintings copied one after another were stacked in the corner, while his own works hung on the wall.

There are no people in his works, only landscapes.

Even Vivienne Harmon jokingly requested that in Raffaele's painting, only Vivienne's jaw and hands were included in the painting.

Vivienne Harmon was still very happy, and even thought it was more beautiful and romantic than a half-length painting. It directly replaced the landscape painting they had bought in a certain gallery and hung it on the bedside of their bedroom.

He took off the landscape painting hanging by the window, and touched the watch on his left wrist.

The storage gems he took out from the secret room of Ilvermorny, he directly set them on the watch he always wore.

Immediately, a framed oil painting appeared in his hand.

The painting showed a beautiful young man with exquisite facial features, long golden-red hair draped over his shoulders in a mess.He was wearing silver armor in the style of medieval knights, and a long red cloak hung down to the ground.He was holding a silver helmet in one hand, and resting on the long mane of a white horse with the other. He seemed to be talking to the white horse, but he turned his head and looked forward when he heard someone calling.

The movements of the boy and the white horse tilting their heads are almost exactly the same. Under the long black eyebrows, the white horse's eyes are full of curiosity, while the boy's eyes seem to be lit up by something, which is unbelievably beautiful.

Raphael bent the corner of his mouth, and his fingers lightly touched the boy's bright black eyes.

Under the power of magic, for the first time in 300 years, everything on the painting has not faded, as if the boy is about to step off the canvas in the next moment, and throw himself into his arms like countless times before.

Phoenix, who died and was reborn, lost all memory, including all common sense of life and human language.

Raffaele could have entrusted him to the care of the maids in the castle, such as Sabrina Brown, a maid who followed him from Scotland to Plymouth, one of his confidantes, and was arrested when he came to this land. Raffaele was promoted to housekeeper.

She is patient enough to take care of an older child.

It was all because Phoenix hugged his arm too hard and cried so badly when he was tried to tear it away. Even Raffaele couldn't bear such a tragic cry even if he had a heart of stone.

Sabrina Brown looked helplessly at the teenager who was clinging to Raffaele's arm and refused to let go, and watched her master wipe his face almost in embarrassment, leaving Phoenix in his room.

Raffaele once thought it would be a torture, but most of the time, Phoenix is ​​smart and sensible.When Raffaele was present, those black eyes never looked at him wrongly or rightly, as if they were the center of his life.

Raffaele is not so easy to be impressed by such gazes, but Phoenix may be the first person he rescued with his strength, or maybe the boy is good-looking because he has special treatment, and everyone will inevitably have a little face control, For the next 20 years, Raffaele never managed to get Phoenix out of his room.

Unknowingly, he broke into his heart arbitrarily.

That was a wayward and persistent little bastard.

Suicide, thanks to him daring to make such a decision, he would come to Raffaele crying and begging for comfort when he had scratched a little bit of oily skin before.

"Finny, our tree was stolen."

Raffaele sighed softly and said slowly.

The tree that Raffaele mentioned refers to the sycamore tree that Raffaele planted for Phoenix in the Stuart Manor.

To be honest, Raffaele often wondered if he had chosen the wrong name for Phoenix.Because compared to Phoenix, the guy who always loves to climb trees and invites him to climb trees with him should be called Monkey.

Of course, it is impossible for Raffaele to climb up and down the tree like a monkey. It would be embarrassing for Phoenix to be thrown outside. Raffaele had to plant a sycamore tree in the inner garden outside his room, and use it The magic brought it to its proper height.

Of course, when Raffaele's head was covered by Phoenix in the later period, he would often sit on the branch of the plane tree with Phoenix, looking at the thriving scenery outside the manor from a distance.

Now, although Phoenix is ​​temporarily gone, Raffaele still prefers to move the original tree here.He can shrink the tree and plant it in a pot, and replant it when the time is right.

After all, that's Phoenix's beloved tree.

However, what Raffaele did not expect was that the furnishings in the Stuart Manor had changed drastically, and some precious utensils had become relatively cheap gadgets. Not to mention, the sycamore tree in his inner garden was actually was poached.

Not felled, but the whole tree was dug up!

This is very hateful.

Raffaele can still understand those who steal gold and silver utensils, but what the hell is stealing trees?He didn't even leave the roots of the tree to him, and he was insane.

"That's too much, isn't it, Feeney?"

Phoenix loves the sycamore tree so much, and is as possessive of that tree as he is of Raffaele.Anyone but Raffaele would get Phoenix's stare if he touched the tree.Even if it is a bird that falls on a tree, Phoenix will take the trouble to drive it away.

Raffaele deeply felt that if the tree was not too tall and still rooted in the soil, Phoenix would probably be very happy to sleep with the tree in his arms.

Raffaele refuses a tree to take his place in his bunk.

Fortunately, things turned around. Phoenix encountered a difficult "enemy" that could not be driven away-a couple of sparrows with a family and three little sparrows waiting to be fed.

Phoenix slumped on Raffaele's lap because of a family of tits that had appeared in that tree.Although Raffaele felt helpless, he also proposed to drive those tits away.

If Phoenix really likes the tree, he can use magic to cover the tree, and it doesn't take much magic anyway.

However, Phoenix refused.

In the days that followed, he watched Phoenix no longer climbed trees, but hung on the window sill and looked at the family of tits every day.

The longing, depressed and sad little appearance made Raphael feel that the tits in that family were extremely sinful.

Fortunately, this situation did not last long.

After more than a month, Phoenix happily brought down the chickadee's nest—he drove away the whole family of chickadees.Because the chicks were old enough to leave the nest, Phoenix reclaimed his territory.

This is so cute.

Thinking of the beginning, a trace of warmth flashed in Raphael's eyes.However, this trace was quickly extinguished.

He stood quietly in front of the oil painting, his pupils, which were still soft even though they were slightly indifferent in the past, were already covered with frost.

He has to take that idiot home.

Even if it's hell out there.

***

The seventh floor of hell, the forest of dead trees transformed by the souls of suicides, is the purgatory of suicides.

Raffaele has not been to hell.

His death in the previous life was like closing his eyes for a short rest, and when he woke up, it was more than 300 years later.He has no memory after death, only the dim candlelight in the room when he was dying, and Phoenix's tearful eyes.

Then, he was born as Raffaele Harmon, grew up, and at the age of 16 regained the memory and power of his previous life.

Raffaele wasn't sure if his memory was erased after death, or if he was reincarnated without ever going through hell.Or whether he continued to reincarnate in the past 300 years, whether his life as Raffaele Stuart was his last life or not.

It doesn't matter.

Raffaele thought calmly.

Nothing could stop him from getting Phoenix back.

That little bastard is his!

In the ancient books he had read, there was a method for living souls to enter hell, but in his previous life, he had no spirit of risking death, and he had never tried that magic.

He is not afraid of hell as an enemy, but he can't go straight to hell like a reckless man.

That would be stupid.

He has not singled out the power of the entire hell, the most suitable way is to sneak into hell and steal Phoenix's soul.

But before that, he needs enough information.

The author has something to say:
