Chapter 767: The Last Moon Duet: Setting Up the Moon on Fire



The lights inside Mafra Q Hall dimmed once again, casting long shadows across the stage. The crowd was still buzzing with excitement, a collective hum of energy radiating from every corner of the venue. They had just witnessed one of the most breathtaking duets of the night -Moonlight and Tsukuyomi's performance of "Save Your Tears"—and it left them wanting more. But now, the anticipation was thick in the air as they waited for what was to come.

Moonlight, standing at center stage, looked out over the sea of eager faces. His silver hair shimmered under the dim spotlight, his masked face giving him an air of mystery that only heightened the crowd's anticipation. He raised his hand to the microphone, his voice soft but steady as he addressed the crowd.

"I wanted tonight to be special," he began, his words carrying through the hall, immediately silencing the murmurs of the audience. "I've spent weeks preparing for this concert, rehearsing every song, every note because I wanted to make sure you all felt the connection we share through music."

The crowd erupted into applause, their cheers ringing out in waves of appreciation. Moonlight paused, allowing the sound to wash over him, before continuing.

"But there was one thing I knew I needed to do," he said, his voice full of emotion. "I wanted to bring something new to you tonight. Something that would make this concert unforgettable."

As he spoke, a soft strum of guitar strings echoed from behind him. The band, who had been waiting quietly, began to play the opening chords of the song. It was a haunting melody, soft and slow, building gradually like the first light of dawn.

Moonlight turned back to the microphone, his eyes glowing beneath his mask. "This next song means a lot to me. It's about rising up, finding hope, and realizing that even in the darkest moments, there's always a chance to wake up and change the world around you."

The crowd was hanging on his every word, their cheers quieting into a reverent hush as they listened.

Moonlight glanced over at Tsukuyomi, who was standing a few paces away. Her presence was serene, almost celestial, her long kimono-style dress glowing under the soft light. She gave him a small nod, and together, they stepped forward.

"This is a song I've never performed before," Moonlight said, his voice low and filled with sincerity. "But tonight, for the first time, Tsukuyomi and I will perform it together. I hope you feel the same connection that this song brings me."

The crowd, electrified by his words, began to cheer again, louder this time, as the band built up the introduction of the song.

The music swelled, and Moonlight lifted his guitar, his fingers gently plucking the strings. A familiar, haunting riff filled the hall, sending shivers down the spines of the audience. The sound was slow and deliberate, but there was something powerful in it, something that promised to build into something unforgettable.

And then, the moment everyone was waiting for-the first notes of "Wake Up" by Arcade Fire.

Moonlight and Tsukuyomi stepped forward, side by side, and together, they sang the opening "Ohhh" in harmony, their voices intertwining perfectly. The haunting melody of the intro filled the venue, and as soon as the audience heard it, something shifted. A deep, emotional connection formed between the performers and the crowd.

The crowd responded immediately, joining in on the "Ohhh" part, their voices rising in unison with Moonlight and Tsukuyomi's. The hall shook with the power of thousands of voices singing together, the sound echoing off the walls like a wave of emotion crashing down.

It was exactly the moment Theo had imagined. The song was connecting with the crowd in a way that felt almost tangible, and the energy in the room was nothing short of electric.

Moonlight smiled behind his mask, his heart swelling with the emotion of the moment. He had always known this song would be special, but hearing the crowd sing along with him, feeling the depth of their connection-it was more than he could have hoped for.

As the intro came to a close, the band pulled back slightly, allowing Moonlight's voice to take center stage as he began the first verse.

"Somethin' filled up

My heart with nothin'

Someone told me not to cry.."

His voice was soft but strong, filled with the kind of emotion that could only come from someone who had lived through the highs and lows of life. The crowd was silent, hanging on every word, as the song began to build once again. Some people didn't know why, but their eyes started to tear up. There was something about someone telling you to not cry that makes you cry even harder. And the way that Moonlight sang made things even more emotional.

"Now that I'm older

My heart's colder

And I can see that it's a lie..."

As the verse ended, the music swelled once again, and the crowd, sensing the momentum building, began to stir. Moonlight's guitar strummed louder now, the rhythm more urgent, and the audience could feel that something big was coming.

And then, the chorus hit.

"Ohhhh!"

The crowd erupted, singing the "Ohhh" part from the top of their lungs, their voices rising together in a unified wave of sound. The energy in the room was electric, every person in the audience was swept up in the moment, feeling the power of the music flowing through them. Moonlight's fingers danced across the strings of his guitar, the music swelling into something massive, and Tsukuyomi's voice joined his once again, their harmonies soaring through the hall.

"Children, wake up

Hold your mistake up

Before they turn the summer into dust..."

The lights on stage flickered and pulsed with the rhythm of the song, casting vibrant colors across the crowd. The energy in the room was palpable, like a living thing, growing with each passing moment.

As they reached the next verse, Tsukuyomi took the lead, her voice soft but filled with power.

"If the children don't grow up

Our bodies get bigger but our hearts get torn up..."

Her voice was ethereal, almost otherworldly, and the crowd fell into a hush, mesmerized by the emotion she poured into every word. It was as if she was calling out to them, asking them to wake up, to embrace the moment and the emotions they were feeling.

Moonlight played strongly behind her, his guitar notes weaving around her voice, supporting her as she carried the song forward.

When the following part came around. They sang together with everything they had, their voices filling the space, shaking the very ground beneath their feet.

"We're just a million little god's causin' rain storms

Turnin' every good thing to rust

I guess we'll just have to adjust..."Nôv(el)B\\jnn

The hall was alive with energy, the sound of thousands of voices singing together, and for a moment, it felt as if nothing else existed but this performance, this song, and the connection between Moonlight, Tsukuyomi, and the crowd.

The music reached its peak, the band playing with an intensity that seemed to vibrate through every fiber of the venue, and Moonlight and Tsukuyomi's voices soared above it all, lifting the crowd higher and higher with each note.

The final "Ohhh" rang out, and the crowd joined in once again, their voices rising as one, filling the hall with a powerful, almost cathartic release of energy.

As the song came to a close, the last strum of Moonlight's guitar echoed through the venue, leaving the crowd in a breathless silence.

For a moment, there was nothing but the soft hum of the stage lights and the quiet reverberation of the last note. Then, slowly, the audience began to clap, their applause growing louder and louder until it became a roar of appreciation.

Moonlight stood there, his guitar hanging at his side, his chest heaving as he caught his breath. Beside him, Tsukuyomi smiled softly, her eyes glistening with the emotion of the

performance.

The crowd's applause thundered through the hall, and Moonlight turned to Tsukuyomi, offering her the spotlight for a moment. She stepped forward, her voice soft but sincere as she

addressed the crowd.

"Thank you," she said, her voice filled with warmth. "Thank you for being here tonight and for sharing this moment with us. From the bottom of my heart, thank you."

The crowd responded with cheers, their love for Tsukuyomi and Moonlight palpable in the air.

As the applause continued, Tsukuyomi took a step back, bowing gracefully to the audience before retreating to the shadows of the stage. It was her final song of the night, and she had

left her mark.

Moonlight also left the stage for the last pause of the show, the next three songs would be the last songs of the concert.
