Chapter 642: Working Before The Leisure



08:02 AM, March 13, Saturday.

It was at that moment that Theo's car pulled up at Aurora's school front gate. Although the school festival would only start 2 hours later, most of the students decided to arrive a couple of hours before the event to take care of the last details of their respective clubs' sales. This meant that the school gate registered a steady influx of arriving students that Saturday morning.

"Okay, here we are, sis." Theo said as he pulled up the car next to the school gate, "See you in a couple of hours." He smiled at her.

"Thank you, big brother." She smiled excitedly before picking up her things and leaving the car, "See you later!" She exclaimed before closing the passenger door and running towards the school gate.

Theo chuckled as he saw her departing figure before driving his way back to his house. He got lucky as he didn't face much traffic on his way back, so 15 minutes later, Theo pulled into the long subterranean tunnel until he arrived at the mansion atop Pedrarruna Forest, the morning sun casting a warm glow over the vast estate. He had just returned from dropping off his sister, Aurora, at Yukihime High School, where she had important duties to fulfill as the student council vice-president ahead of the festival. With a few hours to spare before the festival began at 10 AM, Theo decided to immerse himself in his work.

Theo made his way through the grand corridors of the mansion, his footsteps echoing softly against the polished wooden floors. His destination was the professional sound studio he had set up soon after they moved in almost a year ago, and also the place where he worked when he needed to work with music.

Music had always been his passion, and this studio was his sanctuary, filled with state-of- the-art equipment and instruments.

The studio was an impressive space, with soundproof walls, a large mixing console, and an array of instruments neatly arranged. Theo settled into the comfortable chair in front of his computer and began working on the composition of the soundtrack for the last episode of the [SAO] anime his animation studio was producing.

"Morning, babe," Theo replied, his voice equally light with a smile. "Just finished showering. Getting dressed now."

Ayia laughed softly. "Perfect timing. I wanted to see if you wanted to meet before leaving, or if we meet there at the festival."

Theo appreciated her offer. "Hmm, I'll drive you and Shizuka to the festival. What about the others? Did they say when they would go?"

"Sounds like a plan," Ayia agreed. "We'll be ready in 10 minutes. And I saw the group chat, and everyone was saying that they would arrive around 11 AM."

"Great!" Theo smiled happily that his friends would help with his sister's festival, "See you in a few minutes then." He laughed.

As Theo ended the call, he felt a rush of excitement. He quickly dressed, choosing a casual yet stylish outfit appropriate for the festival: a fitted black t-shirt, dark jeans, and a light grey jacket. He glanced in the mirror, running his fingers through his hair once more, ensuring it

was in place.

With a final look around his room to make sure he hadn't forgotten anything, Theo made his way downstairs. The mansion was quiet, the calm before the storm of the busy festival day. He took a moment to check on Angel and Maya, who were lounging lazily in the sunlit living

room.

Theo drove his car to the nearby manor where Ayia and Shizuka lived. The festival promised excitement, competition, and a chance for the clubs to showcase their hard work. With Ayia and his friends by his side and Aurora leading the efforts at the school, Theo felt ready to embrace the day and enjoy the festival to the fullest.
