Once he was back at camp, he showed them all the things he managed to get during the day. The piano was ced right beside the official instructors'' tent, which was used by Edward and Seraphelle.


    For dinner, he didn''t get anyone to make anything and instead just settled for some fruits, berries and the deer meat that he had. Everyone appreciated the food thanks to the change after almost 5 days.


    As he went to bed, he used the replenished mental energy to boost Vincent''s skills once again. The next morning, he decided to stay back and sent the others away with just three fishes.


    Once they were gone, he was left alone with Edward and Seraphelle who sat on the ground, chatting away as they didn''t really have much work to do. He walked over to the grand piano and yed around with it, trying to get a feel for it as he knew that grand pianos were way differentpared to the regr electric piano that he used to y.


    The grand piano followed a simr principle to the guitar, using strings to produce sounds. It was just that the entire mechanism was extremelyplicate for it''s time, having multiple hammer and gear like things to make sure that the piano worked as intended.


    Thanks to this, the force needed to press the keys was higher than what he normally used for electric keyboards and on top of that, it also had three pedals that allowed him to control the sounds even further.


    At first, he sounded horrible but since he knew the fundamentals, he improved at a tremendous pace until he hit the peak of his learning curve.


    "There''s so much more I could do... the amount of control over the sounds with a grand piano is incredible and way better than a regr piano, but that will probably take me months and even years." he muttered, knowing that he never was a world ss piano yer.


    He only used to do it as a hobby and he had no ns on spending most of his time on the grand piano.


    ''Well, this much is enough for now and maybe by night, I''ll be able to get used to all the differences.'' he thought as he went back to practicing.


    Time quickly passed by and he entered the perfect flow state multiple times, going in and out of this state randomly. Some times, he was too distracted by the sounds of nature and some times he was so engrossed in the grand piano that everything else seemed to have stopped existing in his mind.


    He had a few pieces learnt by heart, and he decided to practice Mozart''s Concerto No.21 which he really liked. Moonlight Sonata was a top ssic, but he felt like going for something else.


    By the time the sun had set, Keith had almostpletely done with his practice. He got up from the makeshift chair he had made by cing a thick tree trunk on the ground.


    He could have moved the piano, but it was way easier to move a cut up logpared to therge piano.


    "Oof, my ass hurts like crazy from sitting down for so long." he muttered as he patted his behind before looking at Edward and Seraphelle who already had their eyes on him.


    "It''s almost night time. When are those guys going toe back?" he asked as he walked around.


    Edward shrugged, "I don''t know, but I''m sure they''ll be here soon. Though I must tell you, you''ve managed to impress this countess." he said as he nced at Seraphelle who nodded in response.


    "Indeed. You''re very good with the piano and when I listened to you getting better and better, it felt like you had some kind of experience with using this instrument. It''s like you abandoned it and came back after getting rusty."


    Keith gave her a stiff smile as her analysis was on the mark, "Maybe I did try it out in the past." he said and didn''t bother exining.


    Seraphelle gave him a slight nod, "Anyways, that musical piece of yours is absolutely phenomenal. It made me feel goosebumps everywhere."


    "She literally cried, Keith. After you got the music to flow better, there was nothing stopping her tears." Edwardmented, only to get have Seraphelle re at him.


    With a slight cough, she turned to look at Keith, "Don''t bother him, his taste in music is absolute garbage. Also, yes I did shed tears but I want you to know that not everyone perceives music the same way. Some may cry, and some may feel various other emotions. There will also be some who will not be able to feel anything from your music, but don''t let that stop you."


    Keith silently nodded. He never nned on following the path of music professionally, at least not in this world.


    "Why don''t-"


    Just as Seraphelle began to speak once again, their teammates teleported back to the camp.


    "- you y a different piece for me?"


    "y a what? Keith already learnt how to y that darn thing?" Amelia eximed, shocked beyond her wildest dreams as her gaze switched between Keith and Seraphelle.


    Most of the people in their team wasn''t familiar with the Piano but since Amelia was a former noble, he had taken sses to learn how to y the instrument. Due to this, she knew how hard it was to learn the grand piano.


    Keith looked at them and didn''t say much. Instead his gaze was locked onto Brandon who had arge bag on his back. Explore more at empire


    "What did you manage to get through trades today?"


    Seeing him ignore her, Amelia flew into a fit, "Oi bastard, did you just ignore me? Just what in the hell is your problem."


    "Hey, chill. I was just interested in what we got today and as for your question, the actual answer is no. I didn''t learn the Piano in just a day. I yed around with a piano back when I was in college and all I did was brush up and shake off the rustiness." he said and nced at everyone in the group.


    With a smile, he spoke, "If you want, I can y something for you guys."
