The applause was so deafening that the entire arena seemed to visibly vibrate from the force of its sound waves.
At first, Iris automatically clapped her hands like everyone else. It took a few moments before the words registered in her brain. She gasped in surprise and turned her head to JJ. She had no idea that she was going to receive this award tonight. Based on JJ's expression, however, he appeared to have already known about it beforehand.
"Stop spacing out, brat! Go back to the stage and make history! Ahahaha!" JJ looked proud and ecstatic, as if he was the one receiving the special award himself.
Iris nodded and made her way back to the stage. She couldn't determine exactly what she was feeling at the moment. This special award appeared to be very important because the President of the Harmony Music Awards, the Minister of Arts and Culture, and an official from the biggest international association of musicians in the world were personally presenting it to her.
