Chapter 119 119 – Is that BlackVelvet?!

To my surprise, Selena had already told one of the school’s teachers, who was a friend of hers, that she was coming to visit, and she was given access to all of the school’s facilities.L𝒂aTest nov𝒆ls on (n)𝒐velbi/𝒏(.)co𝒎

I must admit that the place itself was very nice.

There were several rooms for practicing instruments, recording studios, chroma key rooms, rooms with several computers for editing…

The curriculum included the normal classes that all schools have, while there were extracurricular classes for training in singing, instruments, dance, drama, painting, and many other courses that can be useful for artists or professionals who want to pursue a career in the arts.

As Selena led me into a room where a class had just finished, a message appeared in front of me.

[Good Dance Classroom

Effect: +60% bonus when learning dance-related content.

Duration: While you’re in this room].

When I saw the buff that appeared, my eyes lit up with anticipation.

Not only could I really improve a lot by practicing in these classrooms, but because it wasn’t a normal classroom, but a good classroom, the buff was 10% stronger than in my old school!

Thinking about how much faster I could learn things other than normal subjects like I did at my school, I seriously considered that studying at this school might be a good option for me.

This was practically paying System $4,200 a month to get a boost in my skills, which was clearly worth it.

With the improvement of my skills, my shows would get better, my songs would get better, my videos would get better, and with the sum of all this getting better, I would gain more popularity, rise in rank, and get even more out of my shows.

It’s not like I was spending money on something superfluous, but it was more of an investment that I was making.

The $4,200 I spent now could mean $40,000 more I’d get at the end of the year, so the more I watched this school for the things Selena showed me, the more satisfied I became.

“So, do you think you’ll want to study here?” Selena asked me with a small smile at the corner of her mouth.

“Do you have any doubts? Now I understand why you’re so eager to introduce me to the school. If I study here, I’ll improve a lot as an artist in much less time!” I said excitedly.

“Exactly, if you come to this school, our path to your future fame will be much easier. I even have a list of classes I would recommend you take that will really help your career in the future, the most important ones we can put on that list are acting and dancing, two things you don’t know how to do, but which are indispensable in the artistic world. Of course, if you just want to pursue a career as a rock star, these two skills won’t be useful, but if you want to maximize your results and make the most of your fame, these two skills are indispensable,” she explained. She explained.

Nodding my head, I agreed with her. Even if I didn’t want to make TV shows or movies in the future, I would still need acting to make commercials and advertisements if I wanted to earn more money.

I was also thinking about learning to dance… not for something professional like making songs with dance choreography like the Korean groups, but more for something personal.

I don’t know how to dance, I’m terrible at it. If I have to dance with a girl, won’t I be embarrassed?

So learning to dance was more for personal satisfaction than artistic necessity.

“I’m going back home to talk to my family about it, and when I’ve decided, I’ll give you an answer to confirm it.” I told her and got a nod from her.

“Okay, the school has scholarships for students who are already artists, as long as your rank is high enough you can even get 100% off your tuition. I’ll just have to check how much discount the school gives for E rank and D rank and get back to you. I think it’s pretty certain that you’re going to join the school, so I’ll get the necessary things ready at AJP to help you enroll”. She said smiling as we walked back to the car to talk.

Knowing that there was this discount for artists made me even more excited, because if it cost even less, it would be even more advantageous for me to come and study at this school.

So we walked back to her car while she told me about some of the benefits of the school and stories she’d had while studying here.

What I didn’t realize was that there were a few curious looks from the students as I walked with Selena.

– 3rd POV –

“Hey, that boy looks familiar…” A girl said to her friend as she pointed to a boy and a girl walking around the campus without school uniforms.

Hearing what her friend said, some of the girls in the group looked in that direction with curiosity. “I’ve never seen him before in my life…”

“I’ve seen him too… but I can’t remember where…” Another girl said.

“I have no idea who he is…” Another girl said.

“I’ve seen him! My cousin went to a bar and wrote in her stories that this boy sang a song, Boyfriend, on stage! I remember him because I later looked up the song on MeTube and found his channel. Another girl said.

Hearing the name of the song, one of the girls in the group was surprised and quickly looked in the direction they were looking.

“Is that BlackVelvet?!” The girl said in awe as she looked at BlackVelvet’s signature bleached hair!

She had to admit that wearing bleached hair at the ends with black roots was nothing unusual in the normal world, but as an artist, the girl had never seen another artist wear his hair like that, let alone on his 2D character, which made BlackVelvet’s trademark quite striking.

Coupled with his attractive body and perfect face, his appearance would stick in the girls’ minds even if they only saw him once in a story, just like the other girl.

When they heard his name, the other girls were surprised to recognize him.

“Yes, BlackVelvet! I think that’s his name!” The girl who first recognized him said excitedly. “How did you recognize him so fast, Charlie?”

Looking at her friend, Charlie was a little embarrassed as she replied. “Remember when I was having trouble with my relationship with Trevor? One of BlackVelvet’s songs was on one of the playlists I followed on Spokify and I got hooked on the song, since then he started releasing a lot of songs that perfectly matched what I was going through with Trevor, and some friends called me to go to a bar to forget about Trevor, guess who played the first show of his career at the bar that night?”

The girls were shocked to hear Charlie’s story. “Lies?! You’re not telling me that the gig you went to was BlackVelvet’s first gig after being addicted to his music for so long?”

“Yeah… don’t tell anyone else because if Trevor finds out he’ll go crazy, but when he wanted to get back together, I didn’t get back together with him because of BlackVelvet’s songs.” Charlie said quietly, getting the girls even more excited about the gossip.

“I can’t believe it!” One of the girls said excitedly as she picked up her phone and handed it to Charlie with MeTube open. “Put his channel on MeTube, I want to hear his songs to see if they’re as good as you said.”

“Put on the song Boyfriend, I’m sure they’ll like it.” The other girl who knew BlackVelvet recommended the song. “Wait… I felt like the girl in the video was familiar, you’re not telling me that girl was you?”

Charlie was embarrassed to remember that she had appeared in the video of BlackVelvet singing Boyfriend in the bar, and nodded as she put on the song Boyfriend with the music video.

Hearing that Charlie had even appeared in the music video for the song, the girls’ curiosity grew even more, and more than 8 girls crowded together to watch the music video together.

The video began with BlackVelvet on stage, the camera capturing his sweaty face, sweat dripping down his neck and into his shirt, his strong arms holding the guitar, a confident smile on his face.

Since they had seen him from a distance a few minutes ago, they couldn’t recognize him very well or notice the important features on his face from this distance, but seeing how handsome he looked in the video made the girls very excited.

“He’s really cute…” One of the girls commented, causing the others to nod.

🎼🎶🎤

I can’t believe we’re finally alone.

I can’t believe I almost went home

What are the chances? Everyone’s dancing.

And he’s not with you…

🎼🎶🎤

Listening to the lyrics, the girls’ hearts raced as they imagined the scene he was describing in the song.

Even the two girls who already had boyfriends were surprised to see him sing it and their hearts were racing in anticipation.

As the song went on, the girls’ attention became more and more focused on his music and his actions, until Charlie appeared in the audience and the camera showed as if BlackVelvet was singing specifically to Charlie, causing the girls to scream with excitement, drawing the attention of other people around them.
