Chapter 17 Dio’s Journal - Entry 173
Finally, things are going my way.
Practice has been going well. The guys are figuring out how to accompany my voice, and I’ve memorized all the lyrics.
Thankfully, I’ve always been good at memorization, so it didn’t take me long.
We’ve even started to work on some new material.
It has been helpful to focus on the upcoming concert.
Focusing on our music has allowed me to put my energy into something new, something creative and far less serious than our magic work.
The guys continue to grow on me. Despite their continued lack of ownership in the situation they created by welcoming that girl into their mansion, their decision-making as a whole is tough to question.
They’ve sure made a name for themselves as musicians.
Reem is an excellent leader and has a good sense of what the fans will enjoy.
Fem is excellent at songwriting. Lent is solid in his role of researching magic for our other purpose, and he is quite talented on the guitar.
Plus, they’ve really buckled down to learn what I can teach them when it comes to magic.
I’ll even admit I’ve learned a bit from them as well.
They eventually stopped talking about visiting the girl.
I think it’s partially because they were turned down last time.
I did try to tell them that people with addictions usually do better if they aren’t confronted by elements of their past lives while they’re in early recovery.
They did listen when the professionals agreed with me, so I can’t be that mad about it.
Hopefully, she recovers quickly and can get an apartment somewhere. I was happy to pay to get everything on the right track and get her out of our hair, but my generosity is not boundless.
I keep forgetting to ask the other guys about summoning that demon again.
We need to do that soon. We haven’t been making much more progress on creating rain.
I know weather magic is difficult, but I’m sure we should be further along by now.
We must be missing something, and I’m sure the demon would be able to help.
Actually, I’ll go talk to the guys about it now.
