[Phantom of the Opera] Devil's Beauty

When Odell walked out of the duke's manor, night just fell.

She put on the feather wide-brimmed hat handed by the maid, and sat in the open carriage, her always gentle and smiling expression cooled down.

She has done so many things, and her achievements in one year are higher than that of other sopranos in a lifetime. Why is the progress of the system always only 1%, and what did she not do well?

Thinking of this, Odell frowned, clenched her hands, a little irritable.In her previous life, she was a third-tier starlet. Because she wanted to shape the persona of a beautiful girl in classical music, she spent her own money to learn bel canto for a period of time. She was able to get along so well in France in the 1th century, all thanks to systematic song retrieval. function, and the range expansion function.The shocking works that are passed on word of mouth in Paris are not her original creations, but popular songs from her previous life.After all, it is a musical form that has evolved for hundreds of years, and the melody is so catchy that even children of a few years old can hum it.She used the marketing methods of her previous life to promote it, and it quickly became popular among all walks of life.I thought that in this way, the progress of the system would be greatly increased, but I didn't expect it to stay at [-]%. Why?

Could it be that there are other secrets in this world?

Odell covered her eyes with her hands, sighed, and was about to close her eyes and rest for a while, but at this moment, the interface of the system changed, and a line of small words appeared:

The Phantom of the Opera.

Odell naturally knew what the Phantom of the Opera was, and her brain reacted very quickly. According to this line of small words, as well as the online articles on the theme of the previous life system, she immediately thought of its meaning.

System means...

Let her attack that phantom?No way.In her previous life, she had appeared on a variety show about musicals. In order to create her character as soon as possible, she did a lot of homework. She not only read the original work of The Phantom of the Opera, but also went to the West District to listen to the scene.The melody and plot of this musical are indeed very moving, but even the beautified male lead still makes people feel uncomfortable after taking off the mask, not to mention the "pale complexion, eyes like two deep black holes, no Nose" ghost.

Forget it, even if she never returns to modern times, she doesn't want to attack such an ugly monster, she might as well hug the duke's thigh with peace of mind.Anyway, she has already earned enough money, and she will have no worries about food and drink in her life.

The only thing that bothered her was the beautiful face she saw in the Duke's manor today.The system can only expand the vocal range, but cannot modify the facial features. She considers herself the protagonist of this world, and hates all women who are better than herself.

Fortunately, His Highness the Duke has obeyed her and has driven the woman out of the manor.Now she should either freeze to death or be bullied by a bum.

Thinking of this, Odell felt much more comfortable, and pursed her lips indifferently and triumphantly.

******

Originally, there were only six godmothers in the Duke's Manor, who taught the female pets appearance, voice, body, music, dance, and riding. Later, the upper class began to advocate science, so they invited a female doctor from Cambridge University to teach them mathematics and science.

Bai Lanzhi's grades are very good, but the purpose of the Duke himself is not to train a group of female bachelors, but to enrich the knowledge and temperament of female pets, so the teaching is only superficial and not in-depth.

The man stood in the wind and snow. He was wearing a wide hood, and his face could not be seen clearly, but from his standing posture, he had a very good temperament, with a kind of unmoving and noble temperament.Bai Lanzhi has a strong learning ability, but she thinks she can't imitate the haughty and elegant feeling of a man.

His family should be very well off, otherwise he would not have taken in a strange woman; he must have received a gentleman's education, unlike those drunkards who always look at her face impolitely; he must have a lot of knowledge in his chest, because even The female doctor who graduated from Cambridge did not have the special temperament of him.

Bai Lanzhi had an extremely favorable impression of her savior.Like a kitten eager to be adopted, she wished she could show her belly and show her trust and loyalty to her benefactor.

The savior didn't look at her.He hung the rope around his belt, put his thumb over his index knuckle to his lips, and whistled.

In less than a moment, a white horse rushed out of the snow curtain, trotted to his side, and rubbed his palm affectionately.

The man got on his horse and pointed her in the direction with his chin: "Go."

Bai Lanzhi was a little puzzled: "...what?"

The man was impatient: "It's not far away, just a few steps away, can't you go?"

Bai Lanzhi's eyes were red, and she asked aggrievedly: "Can't I ride a horse with you...I, I know how to ride a horse."

"I'm not used to it." As soon as he pulled the rein, he turned around and walked away, "Let's go, keep up."

Bai Lanzhi could only purse her lips, lift her skirt, and followed him with a deep foot and a shallow foot.

Her physical strength is not bad - vocal music, posture, dancing, riding and shooting, everything requires good physical strength as a foundation, but it is the first time that a man treats her so mercilessly.

Fortunately, the man didn't lie to her, his mansion is indeed not far from the suburbs.Compared with the duke's magnificent manor, which is almost an earl's territory, the man's mansion looks a bit shabby, but it is better than seclusion and quietness.He pushed open the door and strode in: "Come here, your room is on the second floor."

The furnishings in the house are simple, the floor is covered with thick wool carpets, the fireplace is burning hotly, and only one dim wall lamp is turned on, making the atmosphere seem a little warm.A girl was lying on the carpet reading a book. The moment she saw the man, her eyes lit up: "Mr. OG (1)!"

His name is OG?What a strange name.

Mr. OG didn't nod, and gave a light "um" with his nose, which was considered an answer.He pushed Bai Lanzhi over, and introduced indifferently, "She's new here, please take care of her."

Only then did the girl shift her gaze to Bai Lanzhi, looking at Bai Lanzhi's clear and beautiful eyebrows still stained with snow particles, she was stunned for a long time before murmuring: "The person rescued by Mr. this time is so beautiful."

Bai Lanzhi glanced at Mr. OG worriedly, does this person often save people back?What is a newcomer?Could it be...he is a human trafficker?

The trafficker said indifferently: "Tell her the rules, I'll come to pick up people next week." Yu Luo was about to leave, and it was still snowing heavily outside, he didn't even want to drink a sip of hot tea, as if he didn't want to stay here any longer, "gone back."

The girl didn't hold back, and said obediently: "Sir, go slowly."

The man picked up a black umbrella from the porch, opened it, and stepped into the snowstorm.As soon as he left, the girl's tone changed: "You, come here, sweep the dust under the carpet. Mr. OG doesn't care for idlers. If you don't do well, I will notify Mr. and drive you out directly."

Although Mr. OG has a cold and unkind personality, he always brings back some helpless girls and places them in this mansion. He also invites two singing teachers to teach them to sing.He does not seek money or lust, he will come every week to inspect the results of the girls, and if they are qualified, they will be sent to the Paris Opera House for further study, and even become a glamorous female singer because of this, so the girls in the mansion The girls regarded him as a kind and respectable god.

This girl is called Cathy, and her qualifications are not very good, but because she is the first to come to the mansion, she has a sense of superiority like a hostess, and always bullies the new girl for no reason.

Bai Lanzhi didn't expect that she would be picked up by someone casually, and she still couldn't escape the fate of jealousy——Cathy obviously fell in love with Mr. OG.

More than ten years of being a female pet has taught her that if she doesn't want to cause trouble, it's best not to have conflicts with women.

But that's all past life experience.Over the years, she has been cautious, walking on thin ice, trying her best to get high marks in every subject, just to seek a stable life, but what is the final outcome?Haven't been kicked out yet.

Finally, she understood a truth, if she wanted to live in peace, she had to resist and fight for it.

If she hadn't fought for it before, she might have frozen to death in the snow, and it was impossible for her to stand in the warm living room and be ordered around by Cathy.

Thinking of this, her eyes turned red, and the corners of her lips were slightly pursed, happy for the progress of her thinking.

Cathy misunderstood her expression and frowned: "Why are you crying? I asked you to come over and do the cleaning, do you hear me? Why, do you think I have wronged you?"

Bai Lanzhi lifted her chin, clasped her hands in front of her belly, and stared at Cathy from the corner of her eyes.Although the corners of her eyes were still a little red, it didn't prevent her from showing an indifferent demeanor.Every time the Duke punished the disobedient servants, he would show this expression, and Bai Lanzhi learned the essence of it after going back and forth.Sure enough, Cathy was frightened by her arrogance, and shrank a little.

Bai Lanzhi took a step closer, slowed down her voice, and asked word by word: "Mr. OG asked you to tell me the rules, is the rule to wipe the dust under the carpet?"

Cathy wriggled her lips and was about to speak when a girl came down from the second floor. She had green eyes, a baby face, and a sweet voice. She interjected lively, "No, there is only one rule in the mansion. Then That is, you are not allowed to be late for the morning vocal music class. Sister Beauty, we have a special person to take care of the sanitation here, she doesn't like your beauty, and wants to show you off."

Cathy blushed, and choked out a sentence for a while: "Mary, you don't have a place to talk here!"

Mary tilted her head: "Of course, I'm going to the Opera House next week, so of course I don't have a place to talk here. Sister Beauty, come, I'll take you to choose a room."

Blanche smiled at Cathy, lifted her skirt and went up to the second floor.She whispered a thank you to Mary.Mary waved her hand generously: "You're welcome, she dreams of being Mrs. OG all day long." She rolled her eyes as she spoke, "How could Mr. OG fall in love with her? She is neither beautiful nor rational, and her voice is like sandpaper Yes, people are not well-educated. Sister Beauty, you don’t know how rich Mr. OG is, and he bought a brand-name piano tens of thousands of francs without blinking an eye.”

Bai Lanzhi silently wrote down Mr. OG's preferences. He likes girls who are beautiful, rational, and well-educated.Very good, she fits every item.This time, she must learn from the previous lesson, earnestly please him, and never repeat the same mistakes.

There are a total of six rooms on the second floor of the mansion.Mary's father used to be an entrepreneur, but because of his addiction to gambling, he owed a huge debt and was unable to repay it, so he committed suicide by jumping into a river.Her mother disowned her and took a job as a weaver.On the day she met Mr. OG, she was about to follow the old path of her father, who saved her from the bridge and gave her a stable life and a promising future.Since then, she has regarded Mr. OG as a god, and is determined to dedicate everything and even her soul to him.

Mary had experienced a life of spending a lot of money, so she was not surprised by the luxurious layout of this mansion. What she didn't expect was that Blanche was not surprised, as if she was used to luxury, she didn't take the bone china vase and tapestries at the corner of the stairs. If you take the oil paintings of famous artists hanging above you to heart, can't you see the value of these things?

If Bai Lanzhi heard her heartfelt feelings, she would probably laugh out loud—is this considered a luxury?The estate of the Duke of Clayton is probably the palace.

The author has something to say: Note (1): Mr. OG, the abbreviation of Operaghost, means "The Phantom of the Opera", also translated as "The Phantom of the Opera".
