Chapter 914 The Last Daily Life 93
Why does it feel like he has a role as the Pope or the King in addition to the role of the mage? Xiaolin was very keen to catch this point, and at the same time he understood that this was the result of a shortage of manpower, so he could only divide the lines among several other people and quickly get to the point.
Forget it, let’s not think about those things for now, it’s better to focus on acting now.
Xiao Lin glanced at the script, and then said loudly: "Yes, I understand. I have long foreseen that this day will come. The blood of the brave flowing in my body is whispering to me to defeat the devil!"
...Is there something wrong? Would the hero himself say something about the blood in his body? Not only that, the following lines are also extremely controversial.
"Hero...ah, this title sounds so wonderful!" Xiaolin continued to shout: "More noble than anyone else, admired by his companions, and finally marrying the princess...this is it! This is it, this is the life in another world that I pursue! - Only a genius can act this out!"
Suddenly, he threw the script to the ground with an extremely angry expression.
"I say, I'm a hero, right? A hero shouldn't say things like "the blood in his body" that are full of chuunibyou, right? Also, isn't it a bit wrong to be self-indulgent in calling yourself a hero? And he also said that he is nobler than anyone else and admired by his companions. Isn't that quite narcissistic? And, is he really not influenced by Mitsurugi Hibiki? Most importantly, even if he could marry the princess, he shouldn't say it on the spot. Wouldn't it seem like the hero has ulterior motives? Most importantly, the last sentence is obviously redundant!!!"
Xiao Lin became angrier and angrier as he spoke, until his cheeks turned red.
He totally lacks the attitude and perseverance of a hero and looks like a villain with ulterior motives. If such a person can defeat the devil and marry the princess, then the princess would be too unlucky, right?
Xiaolin knew that this was because there were so few people.
For example, the sentence just now, 'The hero is nobler than anyone else, admired by his companions, and finally gets to marry the princess...', should be said by other passers-by to highlight the hero, but because there are few people, it can only be said by himself, which makes it seem that the hero has ulterior motives, which is really unsatisfactory.
"Hey! Mr. Kobayashi! What's your next line?" Aqua urged Kobayashi, as if turning a blind eye to his dissatisfaction, and said, "Although I know you are very unhappy, this story is fictional. Does it destroy your imaginary image of a hero?"
"You actually poured cold water on someone when they were angry. You're a bad clown. This hero actually had a hard time." Xiaolin pulled the corner of his mouth, then bent down to pick up the script from the floor. After patting the dust off, he looked a little headache and said, "However, because there are only a few actors, there are quite a lot of lines to say, and the relationships are also quite confusing. Can we remember them?"
Kobayashi was not worried about himself, but about Aqua - this guy might do well in the beginning, but as time goes by, he will cause more and more trouble. Maybe this guy will do an improvisation at the end and mess up the whole play. These are all uncontrollable risks.
"The whole play isn't that long, and there's still some time before the show officially starts, so it should be in time."
There is no way I would want to change the script. Although there are a lot of lines, it is relatively complete. If I make any more changes, it will easily make the whole story seem pale and weak. Moreover, there is not enough time. The time to change the script plus the time for rehearsal is simply too late.
"That's right." Aqua also echoed with a little excitement, saying: "Reciting such a small thing is not too easy for a goddess like me! Don't worry, Xiaolin!"
“It’s because of Aqua that I’m worried…”
"What did you say?!!!"
Aqua was very angry and wanted to argue with Xiaolin, but he stopped her. She held down the head of the crazy stupid goddess, then turned her head to look at Yougouhui and asked, "By the way, I remember that the next scene is the interaction between the demon king and the princess, right? What should we do about this?"
At this point, even the Demon King and the Princess are nowhere to be found, and their actors are seriously under-represented.
Aqua also said: "I have already made the costumes and other things according to your requirements. Should this be okay?" Following the direction of her finger, Kobayashi and Yougo looked over with slightly strange expressions.
Over there was a set of pure black armor, which looked majestic and revealed a hint of terrifying momentum. I had no idea how Aqua used a milk carton to make such a beautifully restored armor, but Kobayashi had to admit that she was really amazing - this set of Headless Knight's armor, if Kobayashi didn't know that the inside of the armor was empty, he would have really thought that the Headless Knight himself was present.
"Wow, this is really well done..." Xiaolin was shocked and couldn't help but sigh: "It's basically a general of the Demon King's Army, Beldia himself has appeared!"
Highly appreciated.
"Although I have never seen the Dullahan, the majesty exuded by this armor is indeed somewhat unusual. The strength of the Demon King's army cadre must be very strong."
The fact that she can see through the armor shows that she is indeed talented as a magician.
However, Aqua was not very satisfied. She pouted and complained, "As a goddess who holds high the banner of defeating the Demon King, even if it's just acting, I'm asked to imitate the minions of the Demon King's army... This is really unpleasant!!! I really don't want to do it!"
She even said it twice to vent her dissatisfaction.
"But I can't accept cutting corners on my work, so I still finished it perfectly!" Aqua said this again, and she seemed to be very concerned. This somewhat split approach is indeed Aqua's character. Xiaolin couldn't help but complain again: This guy is very disciplined in some strange places...
"By the way, you can go inside the armor and control it!" Aqua said with some pride, then patted the light armor and said, "And, of course, the material used is a milk carton that is friendly to both your wallet and the environment."
"Oh, if we can go in there, then let someone play the role of the Demon King. Well, let those who don't have any part in the role take turns to go in." Kobayashi immediately thought of a way to relieve the pressure on the actors to the greatest extent.
"The only one left is the princess..."
The princess who appears at the beginning and the last moment is completely different from the demon king who does not need to show his face. According to the script designed by You Gou Hui, there is also a part of the princess's one-person show - to reveal the demon king's decision and the movement of the demon king's army from another perspective, as well as the suffering that the heroes may encounter, etc. In terms of the creativity of the script alone, You Gou Hui is still qualified.
"Ah, about the princess, I have an idea. It's about time..."
It's strange that she would say this suddenly. She's so mysterious that it makes people feel a little strange.
Before Xiaolin could ask, he saw Youyou running in hurriedly from the door of the small theater. She was clearly heading straight for the stage of the small theater, but when she saw Xiaolin and others, she showed a coincidental expression.
“…Oh, oh my! What a coincidence!!”
What a lame lie.
It's no coincidence.
In addition, Youyou was not wearing the black mage costume and half-length robe that were characteristic of the Red Demon Clan at this time, but a pink and white dress that made her look elegant and pure. However, she was a little shy and embarrassed when being stared at, with her hands entangled in front of her lower abdomen.
"Look, the princess seems to be here."
Enough will reveal the answer.
Kobayashi scratched his head. He guessed that the original plan was to let Youyou play the role of the princess. Of course, Aqua’s reminder was also involved.
At this moment, Youyou suddenly put her hand on her forehead, raised her head and said pretentiously: "The weather is very good today... Well, it's very suitable for acting!"
Stop, stop talking. It really makes people feel sorry for you for pretending like this. Miss Youyou is so pitiful!
“Youyou…?” Aqua asked curiously when she saw Youyou’s outfit, “Why are you dressed like this? Is there a party today? You’re wearing a gorgeous dress.”
“Hey, are you talking about clothes?” Youyou covered her mouth with her hands wearing white silk sleeves, and said like a real noble lady, “I want to try dressing like a princess once in a while…!”
As he spoke, he secretly observed the reactions of Kobayashi, Aqua, and the other three people. Then, as if he had thought of something, he exclaimed.
"Ah, come to think of it, you're looking for someone to play the princess, right? I just happened to be dressed like a princess... What a coincidence!"
Not a coincidence.
"...I can tell at a glance that she really wants to play the role of a princess." Xiao Lin curled his lips, shook his head and said, "No, she wants to perform with us, right?"
"Xiao Lin, does Youyou want to act with us too? Otherwise it would be really weird."
Aqua said this in a low voice. It seemed that even the stupid goddess had noticed Youyou's extremely weird behavior. However, considering her previous behavior, it was not difficult to guess that Youyou just wanted to act with them.
The time for the meeting was almost right. He walked up to her with a smile on his face and said, "You've come at the right time, Youyou. If you are free, could you please come and play the role of the princess?"
Everything happened naturally, whether it was asking Youyou to find a suitable role, or inviting Youyou when he saw her wearing a princess dress, or even preparing the princess dress herself, she didn't need to do anything - Youyou, she was really a qualified tool.
Facing the invitation, Youyou was a little shy but also a little expectant, and said in a low voice, stumbling: "But, but... can I play such an important role as a princess...?"
She was a little worried that she would be held back, but she didn't want to give up just like that. If Gouhui could give her some confidence at this time and invite her to play the role of a princess, then there would be no problem. However, Gouhui didn't force it and casually said, "Ah, if you are worried, then don't force it. You can play a tree instead."
“Tree?!” When Youyou heard her say that, her eyes widened immediately. She looked at Yougou in disbelief and exclaimed, “They’re not even human anymore. They’re clearly short of actors now!”
Facing Youyou's complaints, Yougou sighed helplessly and said, "If it's not a human role, you don't want to act in it? What a willful request. There's no other way. In this drama, Youyou will——"
"I, I, I, I... I'll just play the role of the princess! I want to stand on the stage with everyone!"
Youyou said this excitedly.
It seems that she is very afraid that Yougouhui will say some nonsense again, which will make all her efforts to dress up as a princess go to waste. She actually pushed Youyou to this point. Yougouhui is really a smart guy... No wonder they can become good friends. Yougouhui has Youyou under his control.
"Ok."
You Gou chuckled and secretly winked at Xiao Lin and Aqua, as if to say that the princess she had reserved was already in place. Xiao Lin and Aqua naturally had no objection. Not to mention that they were really short of actors, You You's current dress was already a qualified princess, and her joining greatly alleviated the pressure of insufficient staff.
"Here, this is your script."
Sometimes I will hand over a stack of draft paper.
"Eh...really, is it okay?" Youyou took the script subconsciously, staring at Youyou blankly, and asked unconfidently, "Is it really okay for me to play the role of the princess?"
"Of course." You Gou nodded, then smiled with satisfaction and said, "I haven't teased You You for a long time. It's really fun."
“…Yes, you are quite good at it, you idiot——!”
Youyou burst into tears immediately.
The apparently naive girl then realized that all this was just a trick put on by her good friend to fool her.
"Even Youyou's script has been prepared." After seeing this, Aqua said with some sigh: "Could it be that Gou is actually very good at taking care of people?"
"Why is a question."
Xiaolin followed suit and complained.
It was already clear that You Gou would want You You to play the role of the princess, and it wasn't hard to guess. It was just that his approach was too much like the Crimson Demon Clan's, so the simple You You was teased. It wouldn't be wrong to say that You Gou is actually very good at taking care of people...
"Okay, we have to memorize our lines quickly." Xiao Lin shook the script and said, "I don't want to hear the audience say that only the background of this play is beautiful, but the actors are not that good."
After the new partner Youyou joined, Xiaolin and the others continued to practice. There was less than a week left before the official performance.
