Chapter 1724: Evening Founding Festival with Shallow Vernal ⑦

Incidentally, the fact that there are exceptionally good-looking seats available must be thanks to the support of the Gods.

Not long after we sat down, the lights dimmed and only the stage was illuminated, and the play began.

To be honest, I was slightly apprehensive at first. Knowing that the source material is based on me, I wondered if I could truly be able to enjoy it…… but it turned out to be a completely unfounded fear, as once the play started, I was immediately absorbed by the brilliant acting.

I mean, the original book itself is a book that has been considerably dyed with exaggerations, so when they change that up further, you can almost say it’s a different story.

It’s a story that is like a typical adventure, a hero tale with a protagonist who has come from another world, and I was able to enjoy it normally. Well, there are parts along the way where the original source becomes apparent, such as fighting what are obviously Black Bear-like enemies and visiting the King who rules the forest to seek salvation for the destroyed Elven City. It’s a bit itchy knowing the source material though……

At any rate, the theater was truly outstanding, with a variety of magical effects and realistic acting, and I lost track of time and became absorbed in the performance.

After a while, the stage lights went out and I thought that was the end of the performance…… but a little later, I heard some light music and the stage lights came on again at about the same time.

[Oh, it’s still going on!]

As it seemed to be the same people from the previous theater company who had come out, the play was still going on. This time, the atmosphere changes completely to a musical, as it progresses with lively dances and a fun mood.

The content seemed to be a musical version of the earlier Hero of the Forest, and the atmosphere was very interesting and was unlike that of the previous performance. Even battle scenes also held songs and dances, which are light-hearted yet tense, making it very interesting.

And once again, I lost track of time and enjoyed…… enjoyed…… n- no? Wait, as expected, aren’t things taking too long? Is this performance really just an hour long? It feels like much, much more time has passed, but the audience seats are dark, so I can’t really check my watch and tell the time.

[The time? It’s been almost “two hours” since we entered. By the way, I’ve made sure that people can’t hear the conversation between me and Kaito-san right now, so you can talk normally.]

[…………Eh? W- Why? The sign outside said that this performance would last one hour.]

[Do you want to know?]

[I- I do.]

[I looked into things like the theater for today’s date, so I know about it. This theater company is known for performing the same play as a musical after their theatrical performance. Their popularity exploded when they surprised the audience with their first performance, and it became a staple afterward. However, it seems that, just like their first performance, the musical isn’t listed in the program. And so, you see, quite a bit of time is taken up until the play after this troupe’s performance.]

S- So that’s how it is…… W- Well~~ As expected of Shiro-san. It’s admirable how she’s conducting prior research…… A- Ahaha…… If it’s possible though, I would have liked to have been told about this before the play started…… What should I do?

It would have been fine if this play just lasted for an hour. It’s only about 10 minutes from here to the clock tower, and we’d be well in time for the sunset. However, if two hours had passed, things would be very different.

I don’t know exactly how long the sunset lasts, but I know it’s not that long. If that’s the case, the worst-case scenario being that the sun has already set is highly likely.

[……S- Shiro-san? Umm, I think the night view is beautiful too, you know? I think it’s suitable for couples to watch together…… W- We don’t really have to be fixated on the sunset, and I do feel sorry for letting time slip away due to my carelessness…… but if possible, umm, can you not do something like rewind time?]

[It’s alright. I won’t be rewinding time.]

As expected, if the descended sun were to rise in the sky again, I would be worried about the stomachs of people Like Laguna-san and Chronois-san. And so, when I suggested to Shiro-san if she could just bear with the night view somehow, she readily agreed without much hesitation.

T- That’s good. I thought she was going to be fixated on the situation written in the magazine, but with this being the case……

[Anticipating something like this happening, “I’ve stopped the sun exactly just as it was setting”, so we can enjoy the perfect sunset without rewinding the time.]

[…………………….]

I’d like you to stop looking so smug while saying such nasty power words. My thoughts can’t keep up here……

<Afterword>

Serious-senpai : [The power word “stopping the sun as it was setting”. Even if the Gods wanted to stop this, as they just can’t get in Shiro’s way, they can only stare at the sunset with dead fish eyes.]
