I Just Wanted to Be a Galactic Hunter—Why Am I on the Wanted List?-Chapter 255: Art!
After the powerhouse from the Empire's military and Fwens cooperated, Loren and the white-bearded man tacitly stood together as well.
Clearly, neither of these two wanted to get involved in the trouble between the Star Traveler Society and the Empire.
One was here purely for an assassination.
And the other was here purely to promote his organization's ideology.
"So, for this edition of the Silver Radiance Festival, whoever makes the first move will have to face that Demigod-level powerhouse from the Security Bureau first?"
"What a pity. In that case, let's compare our patience."
The intelligence personnel from the Empire's military transmitted a mental message, ending this "group chat."
The conversation ended on a sour note.
Loren silently withdrew his spiritual energy, his expression calm as he watched the performances on stage. He was practically laughing out loud in his heart.
Compare patience with me? You'd better be prepared to wait until nightfall then...
On the stage.
Singers and bands from various star sectors of the Federation were wholeheartedly delivering their brilliant performances.
For these people who had struggled in the singing industry for years or even decades, this was the highest stage they could ever stand on in their lives.
It was worth pouring countless efforts into preparing a perfect performance...
It was precisely because all these performers held the mindset of giving their all that every single performance at the Silver Radiance Festival was a near-perfect level show.
You must understand, the reason those cult organizations chose the Silver Radiance Festival as the stage to showcase their organizational ideologies was because it was the event with the largest viewership.
And in the hearts of the Federation's populace, the spectacle of cult organizations promoting their ideologies was merely a temporary intermission program.
The true core of the Silver Radiance Festival would always be those singers and bands who spared no effort!
This was a top-tier carnival concerning music within human civilization!!
After all, the god-tier live performances rarely seen by the Federation's populace were almost the standard singing level at the Silver Radiance Festival.
As one brilliant performance after another flowed on stage, even someone like Loren, who didn't pay much attention to music, began to be enchanted by it.
Loren, who usually preferred quiet, even lifted the shielding of his spiritual energy over his hearing.
Later on, when he heard those heavenly voices singing on stage, he would even rise and cheer along with the on-site revelry.
Loren acted like an ordinary audience member, as if he had come purely for the music...
His assassination target wouldn't appear until the award ceremony in the evening. He didn't mind peacefully being an ordinary audience member during the performance segment.
"Master! We took the right commission! I really like it here!!" Raven's voice sounded in Loren's mind.
"Quiet! Stupid bird! Don't disturb my listening!!"
Clearly, Loren, who came from the slums, had finally experienced the charm of music.
The only slight regret was that, having experienced a top-tier music feast from the start, his future standards for music might become a bit high.
Of course, Loren's actions also made those Security Bureau agents secretly lower their guard against him.
Although several Security Bureau agents were still keeping an eye on Loren, his enraptured appearance ultimately didn't seem much like a cult organization member solely focused on causing trouble.
After all, compared to Loren who was genuinely immersed, that bunch of guys near his seats who were even half a beat slow in cheering seemed quite suspicious.
Feigned enchantment and genuine immersion looked different.
Only with comparison comes the sting.
Near Loren's seats, those cult organization members whose sole purpose was to promote their organizational ideologies appeared somewhat tense during the intermission after each performance.
They were completely different from Loren, who wore an expression full of satisfaction and lingering appreciation after a performance ended!!
They practically had the phrase "I'm here to cause trouble" written on their faces!!
On stage, another pleasant and melodious singing performance ended.
During the singer's exit and before the next singer took the stage.
The middle-aged uncle from the Sculptors' Mutual Aid Association sitting to Loren's right nudged Loren with his elbow, leaned his head over, and asked:
"Brother, when are you going on stage? I feel like you're kinda enjoying yourself. Don't forget the real business."
A remarkably cheerful smile appeared on Loren's face. He raised his hand and patted the other's shoulder.
"Relax, I haven't forgotten. What about you? When are you planning to go on stage?"
The middle-aged uncle also raised his hand and patted Loren's shoulder, saying in a deep voice:
"Now!!"
With that, he vanished without a trace like a gust of wind. A figure moving so fast it was almost a blur leaped high into the air!!
Instantly charging onto the stage!!
After rushing to the center of the stage, the middle-aged uncle unleashed an unknown spell towards the sky!!
Then, he opened his mouth and shouted loudly towards the live broadcast equipment near the stage:
"We of the Sculptors' Mutual Aid Association firmly believe!! The future of humanity lies in order and art!! Not in violence!!"
"Order is eternal!! Art is immortal!!"
At that very moment, the unknown spell he had released earlier exploded, transforming into a shower of light!
An exquisitely crafted and enormous stone sculpture phantom appeared behind him!! Standing tall and unyielding!
It was a statue of a voluptuous woman!
And the gown on the voluptuous woman's body had naturally slipped down to her waist.
Her slender, graceful arms were raised, as if she were freely displaying herself, or perhaps admiring her own ample figure in solitude...
It's worth mentioning that her upper body had nothing on it, completely unobstructed!
An almost perfect figure curve!
Full! Voluptuous! Perky!
A restricted-level scene had appeared on the stage of the Silver Radiance Festival...
The audience on-site began an enthusiastic celebration!
The roar of the crowd was overwhelming!
Who could refuse a visual feast after an auditory feast?!
The answer is: some could.
The Security Bureau agents near the stage rushed onto the stage at their fastest speed!
Swarming up!
Quickly pinning that middle-aged uncle from the Sculptors' Mutual Aid Association down on the stage floor!
Arrested on the spot!
As this middle-aged uncle's fervent art met its downfall, the meticulously carved statue phantom on stage also dissipated into nothingness...
Numerous Security Bureau agents escorted him off the stage!!
At this moment, the cheers from the on-site audience grew even louder!!
Everyone was shouting together in high voices:
"Sculptors' Mutual Aid Association!!"
...
Even Loren mixed in, loudly shouting "Sculptors' Mutual Aid Association" several times.
It wasn't until several strange gazes came from his vicinity that Loren reluctantly closed his mouth...
"I just like art, okay? What's the problem with that?" Loren murmured with a sigh.
"Master, is that really you liking art? I can't bear to expose you!!"
You're clearly a terrifying thrill-seeker who loves watching the show!!
Of course, Raven didn't voice this last sentence...
