[BL] Debut in Interstellar After Retiring as Grim Reaper-Chapter 65: Mermaid

Chapter 65: Mermaid

Back at the training camp, even if they already had the premonition, everyone still feels awe after the mentors announce that they picked Shen Lou’s team on this round.

Cheers overwhelmed the stage but after all, it’s really expected. Shen Lou’s group didn’t receive too many words of criticism and even Xu Xinyi would nod sometimes as an agreement. She didn’t say anything other than the start, the members of the team feel like that’s the most special gift that they received after winning.

Meanwhile, the other team also claps their hands to congratulate them. Even though they’re sad at the results, it’s actually not that loss just like how Lu NanXiao’s team. After all, it’s really obviously expected that their group will win so they’re already mentally ready. They also saw their performance and it is indeed much better than them even if they deny it or not. Now, thinking of the previous group who lost badly, Team B felt a better physiological balance. It’s better the feeling of losing to someone who’s far from them than theirs.

"Next, let’s see who’s theme will be the next to perform!" Jiang Su announced and clicked the button of the randomizer. freewёbnoνel.com

"Mermaids! Please step forward here on stage!"

When Han Suwen stood up from his seat, everyone’s attention was on him immediately. His group is very eye-catching today. Not just because their clothing is almost the same as Shen Lou’s team— white long sleeves and black fitted leather leggings, but also because of their attractive and distinct make-up. Each of them has a wet look and some tiny white pearls around their temples that shines everytime it falls under the lights. And when Han Suwen finally stood in the middle of his team, only then did everyone take a deep breath.

It’s really fascinating. Han Suwen’s appearance became even more bewitching and charming than usual, especially with the small fake blue scales on his cheek and his upper neck. The buttons on his sleeves were even more outrageous than Shen Lou’s three— Han Suwen has five unbuttoned buttons on his clothes, clearly revealing the middle of his delicate chest and the lines on his abs. Even if the young man doesn’t have the perfect shape of his abdominal muscles, the thin lines feel like an ambiguous seduction instead, making one’s mind couldn’t help but to rip the remaining buttons to fully expose his slender body.

It’s truly like a replica of a real mermaid in the shape of human’s clothing!

"We’re doomed." A trainee from Team A couldn’t help but whisper while still staring dazedly at Han Suwen. The young man’s appearance was clearly too eye-catching and it’s obvious that he’s the perfect fit for this theme. How could their team defeat this peerless beauty?!

Jiang Mo, who’s the team captain of Team A’s group also feels this way. He cried silently inside his heart and prayed that they wouldn’t be too compared to the other group even if it’s not impossible. Help, just by the looks of their team captain, how can they deal with this?!

They could only pray for luck at this moment.

Unfortunately, their fate is doomed today because Han Suwen’s group will be the first to perform. Jiang Mo sighs again inside his heart. It’s over!

They’ll definitely be compared!

The lights went off again for a few seconds of preparation until everyone saw some bubbles appear suddenly, engulfing the whole stadium. Small to big bubbles float around and they also hear the sounds of the gentle waves on their ears. And thanks to the help of high technology, they even smell the scent of the sea!

Then, a single spotlight appears above Han Suwen. Afterwards, a soft string from the guitar starts and the platform gradually changes into fine white sand. He stared at the audience with seductive eyes and he opened his lips like a siren under the bright moonlight singing to lure humans.

"Taming the waves under the moonlight

The scent of the sea allures me to come to you..."

The mermaid’s song is entitled ’Bewitched’, it’s a song about a mermaid singing at night by the sea, wishing for anyone to be heard and listen to its voice. Although it does sound like the romance genre, it actually expresses someone’s agony about how everyone turned deaf to its voice.

Just like a lone mermaid singing a fairy tale, bewitching humans to catch its heart and stay with it.

The tone of the song is inexplicably melancholy with a faint ballad. Because the song talks about a mermaid’s agony and eagerness, the movement is more focused on emotions and passion from the trainees rather than the physical. Although this may sound simple, the notes from the song were not.

They need to produce and achieve different notes and sing as if it were their last on stage. It’s also crucial because mostly, dancing is observed in groups, but in vocal, anyone can clearly hear your voice especially if it’s just you singing. If you went out of tune just for a second, that may even ruin the song itself.

In addition, singing is very intense and uses high-level of concentration. Other than sustaining your breathing, you need to keep up with the emotions all throughout the song. The members were all young and haven’t experienced much as others, how can they express deep emotions? Sometimes, imagination isn’t enough. One must have strong empathy in order to do this if you haven’t experienced it.

... And Han Suwen did it.

The young man seems to have a keen perception on grasping different kinds of emotions, even on his audition wherein he sang a melodrama one wherein the way he changed his expression really looks like who was wronged in love. Even on his individual assessment ranking test where Han Suwen took them into a different galaxy and combined a different way of reaching one’s dream.

His performance last time was unique because there was a hint of another genre which added a different taste from everyone.

Even in this present group performance, the way he moved with grace and chose the right angle to make himself look more immersed in the song, it’s really no wonder why he was chosen to be part of the S-Class position, even as the team captain.

Rather... he even looks as if he was born on stage.

If Shen Lou was like the fire, he was like the moonlight that will never be forgotten. Coupled with his slightly delicate face, fans outside would surely love this type.

The crowd’s gaze stays at the young man leading the team and can’t even take their eyes away. This Han Suwen is really good, they now wonder how high can he reach in this competition.

Can he stand beside Shen Lou?
