Chapter 87 – Funny Show of Circus (8)
It was already ten o’clock when I woke up at the inn after staying up all night.
“I’m tired.”
I woke up at 10 o’clock when I had to go to the circus by 1 o’clock. Fran also couldn’t wake up after 3 or 4 hours, so we hurriedly changed our clothes.
“I can’t go to Lalilura. What if I wait?”
Fran said as she put on her bra. Poor big breasts compressed tightly! I felt the supreme sorrow in Fran’s heart for being abused.
“You can stop by and talk to me on the way.”
“Ah, that will work.”
Fran nodded her head. The place where the circus is held and the inn where Lalilura stays are close by distance. It wouldn’t be late even if you set aside 10 or 20 minutes for a round trip.
We got dressed and set off. I was hungry, but I could have taken away all the good seats while eating leisurely, so I decided to have a late lunch after the circus.
─Less, less.
A scabbard dangled from her waist. It was because I was wearing armor like an adventurer, but only had a sword on my waist.
‘Because it’s a circus that opens for lunch. The audience must also be quite rich.’
Lunch at harvest time is a busy time. Still, opening the circus at 1 p.M. Meant, in other words, that the target audience was different from that of the Plangoongula Circus.
There are no nobles other than the lord in this periphery. That… I forgot the name, but anyway, the target audience of the circus is probably wealthy merchants, adventurers, or other connoisseurs of rotten money and time.
So, it was no use for us to go fully armed.
Dressing up in armor here is the same as wearing a full set of frog military uniforms when everyone else is wearing suits. An incorrect dress code is likely to be ridiculed.
So I went wearing only clean clothes and weapons.
─Mr. Mm. Mmr.
According to the time slot, I went to the inn where the Plangoongkula Circus is staying. The publicity performance of the morning had ended, and people had scattered, leaving only Lalilura and her puppets in the park.
As soon as Lalilura saw us, she took a funky pose.
“Ah☆! The parakeet couple there! Aren’t you the adventurers who became my fans, just in case?”
“Yes. The disciples have come. I overslept and just woke up.”
“It was! I didn’t know because my hair didn’t stretch☆!”
Lalilura grinned as she ran her fingers over her eyes in a V. I felt something out of place in that look.
“Hey. What happened to you?”
“Four?”
─Hey!
Lalilura smiled crookedly at my point. She quickly recovered, but the shadow passed for a moment on her face. Even to me, the smile from before seemed forced.
“Oh no~? I really hate it! A first-class clown always has to make the audience laugh☆!”
“I see.”
I went beyond her pretension that Rari Lura was holding on to. Ralilura also realized this and flinched.
In the end, she sighed lightly and confessed her true feelings as Lari Lu.
“It’s not a big problem. Because Erica didn’t come today.”
“Ah. I heard and saw it.”
Erica, from the first time I saw her, she was a kid who avoided us by hiding behind a tree. So I thought I was doing the same this time, but I looked for people around me and today it was just us.
“Anyway, the time is the time. I was a little worried, and this Lalilura almost got sprained during a performance after three years.”
“Ugh. Nothing will happen. I guess I couldn’t come today because of circumstances.”
Fran said that and encouraged Lalilura.
It may sound like hopeless optimism, but in fact, there is a basis for Fran’s words. At dawn on the way back yesterday, we stopped in front of the orphanage to hear about the cats’ Big Daddy situation.
Kittens spit out testimonies that no one left the orphanage overnight. Seeing Erica through her fence, we also confirmed that it wasn’t Gura.
‘The one who didn’t come today… Did the director find out?’
Maybe I gave up today because I was scolded because I was caught, or there was a risk of being caught.
Hopefully the kidnappers won’t make a reckless attempt to kidnap a child between 6 and 10 in the morning.
“I think so too…”
Larry Lura muttered and headbanged her head from side to side. What? Did she fall while walking on a tightrope and be under the influence of Crown Potto?
“Aha! Without realizing it, I became depressed again! Then, let’s start today’s training right away♡!”
“Oh, sorry. We also have plans for today. I’m still here to tell you that.”
“What?!”
─Kwakwang! It was Lalilura, to her astonishment, as lightning struck her from the back of her head. Why is she so surprised
“What, what?! Why is everyone’s pretty girl like me left alone as soon as the show ends?! Up until yesterday, it was obviously a noisy happy☆after show, but why did you make me an outcast in just one day?! Is it work?! Do you think your work is more important than me?! Huh!”
“You have 〈 days, but today you are going to the circus. Why, the cream sauce that you performed for the lord?”
“Other!!! Circus!!!”
Lalilura sighed as if she had been hit by an arrow and grabbed her breast, her tears welling up.
“It’s the wind! That’s cheating! Affair! It’s the wind! Was the time with me a play?! Did you have the heart to throw it away if you met a better woman!!”
“No fuck?”
Directly inserting a line from the bad ending route of Forage Harem into my stomach?
I was about to get stunned, but I kept my spirits up with the affair resistance I had trained by watching morning drama reruns.
“Write. Wait a minute, wait a minute Why are you so nasty? Isn’t it a bit ugly to say that I’ve been fine for only half a day?”
“It’s too much! A scratch has formed in my heart! The Chrysos Circus is a circus troupe that has had a rivalry with us since the days of Romania, pretending not to be the case! This is a betrayal!!”
Lalilura, who threw away her core, jumped at her feet and whimpered.
“Do not go! I can do better than them! The Chrysos Circus are worse than us! I’ve never seen one!”
“Ttaek!!!!!! Have you ever seen such a rude guy!!!!!!! You judge others carelessly even if you have never seen them with your own eyes!!!!!!”
“Sure!! If I try to enter, they notice me like a ghost and cut me off at the entrance!! Even though I wanted to see it, I couldn’t see it!!”
─Bung-Bung!
Her legs were brushed off, but Lari Lura didn’t fall all the way.
She’s holding on with her strength and her legs. It was said that her acrobatic skills of barely avoiding contact with her breasts made her a circus ace.
But even if you want to go, you say you can’t?
“Isn’t that because you go around like that? What can I do if I remove my makeup and wear a hood?”
“I do not know! I want to take a look too! If you’re going, take me too! Then I will forgive you even if you cheat on me!”
“I have never experienced wind.”
In any case, it would be annoying if it was between rivals. For example, if Samsung Electronics executives snoop around in front of Apple’s headquarters, the security guards, Azoshi, will come running to be your secret friends.
“Hey. Lalilula.”
Thinking that far, I smiled at Lari Lura who clung to her feet.
“Do you have anything left if you go?”
***
The venue of the Cream Sauce Circus was in the middle of the city.
Lalilura’s circus performed at the Colosseum, but they had a different atmosphere. She says that the area of the city where tents are spread out like an amusement park is where the lord obtained permission and rented it out.
“Admission is 10 coppers!”
The crazy price range is also an amusement park.
A free pass for 1 Mi Land in another world is only 100,000 won!
And! Bastards who will sell unlimited plans to these parents!
“D-Come in! I really came in♡!”
Lalilura, wearing a bright pink robe, jumped up and down. Even though she was wearing black and white masks covering her face, her high tension did not change.
“Oh my god, on horseback! Really, I can’t believe I’m not kicked out at the entrance, saying, ‘If someone you know is like this, you’ll be in trouble’! Can I shed some tears of joy for a moment?!”
Lalilura looked so damn happy that my rune’s ‘impression camouflage’ effect pierced her guard. I also spoke kindly to Ralilura.
“The whining kid is not my family. Ruri lives here. Her mom is going home.”
“Oh! Could you please stop calling me by nicknames casually? What is it? Are you taking this opportunity to shoot and try to close the fall-in-love distance with me? Fran sister over there? What do you think?”
“Lol. I got hit by that too.”
“Gya♡! It’s romantic♥!”
I don’t know how girls feel. I don’t even know how the girls in this world feel. So I gave up and said.
“Let’s go. Less than 40 minutes until the circus show starts.”
The main show of the circus here begins in the tent in the center of Ami Land in the other world.
─Fuck!
We moved there impatiently. Isn’t it that there’s no time to set foot because the students of the fucking leisurely other world are teeming with it? Damn then go for a triple brahman band stacked with lari-la-na-francs. Just tell me
Flutter-.
When I opened the tent and entered, it was a space designed with the feeling of ‘ahhh this is a circus haha’.
It was a structure that could be used at a university or high school festival, with chairs packed around 360 degrees around the wide auditorium, and you could sit on them.
“Thank god. The seat is pretty empty.”
Fran said quietly, matching the atmosphere of the dark room. As they said, even on the first day, the seats were about 30% empty.
After all, there aren’t many people who pay 100,000 won to go out while everyone else is working. It would have been right to admire the fact that this much was gathered.
─Thump.
We went to the closest seat to the performance and sat down.
“Here, simple food.”
Then a man came up and gave me a paper bag. I quickly glanced at the man and accepted it. What was inside was a biscuit. I folded the flap of the envelope and set it down next to the seat.
“Aha! I’m thrilled♡ It’s my first time seeing a circus from a spectator’s point of view as a circus soloist for 10 years☆!”
“Quiet. Listen to others.”
‘Impression camouflage’ cannot hide the content of words. Hearing that sound, the surrounding staff might forcefully kick him out.
Since Rarilura himself paid the bill, I wouldn’t lose money.
─Puppuuuuu!!
Like that, Lalilura and I were chatting, but as if the time was up, a circus member blew the flute on the center stage.
─Thump! Thud!
It was various kinds of animals that appeared with magnificent sounds of flutes.
Elephants are standard options, rhinos, lions, tigers and even bears!
And leading them was a middle-aged man riding on the back of a tiger. Compared to the ridiculous hat, he was dressed so plainly that he could easily see that he was a high-ranking person.
“Hello! Ladies and gentlemen who came to this place!”
As in other circuses, the circus leader seemed to be in charge.
“I am the man who runs the best circus in Romania! It’s Roman Taylor! Just as there are people who recognize me, there are people in the audience who know me well!”
Roman Taylor looked to one side of the audience as he spoke.
There was a fat woman accompanied by an escort in a seat that was separate from the other seats, like the VIP seats. She’s the subject of Hayes Bent, or something like that.
“Today, our Chrysos Circus show that even the honorable ruler of Hasevent, Earl Hasevent enjoyed——”
Roman talking every now and then. With a premonition that the long run would continue, I took out my pocket watch. It was dark, so I couldn’t see it well, but it was still before 1:00 PM.
‘Did you come out to cheer up the atmosphere before the start?’
It is a common occurrence even in the 21st century. I put the pocket watch back in my pocket and let Roman’s words flow through one ear.
─Like it.
At that moment, Frank grabbed my hand from the side. When our eyes met, Frank smiled brightly.
Damn it, to think that I achieved ‘holding hands in a movie theater’, which was the symbol of an insider. The feeling is insignificant.
“——Then, let’s finish the long introduction and let the show begin!”
With Roman’s words as a trigger, four lions gathered in the center of the stage. As the other animals left, the lions climbed onto the narrow platform and stiffened with nervous eyes.
─Papat!
A magic lantern was lit on the ceiling of the tent. As the room brightened, the animals closed their eyes as if dazzled.
“An amazing show time of animals that can only be enjoyed at Chrysos Circus! Enjoy!”
Roman set off firecrackers and went back to the man entrance, and from there the show began.
“Kurrure!!”
“Kong! Wow! Kung!”
Lions sang songs, tigers ran through rings of fire, horses rallied and exchanged balls.
“Hey!!”
─Thump!
Leading the stage was a man who appeared to be a trainer.
The show lasted about an hour, directing the bears spinning the ring and judging the elephants’ tug-of-war.
“Ahahaha! Whoop whoop!”
“Geez!! Pretty, pretty good☆!! But at this level, we are still more… !!”
Even Fran and Lalilura seemed to enjoy the sight of the funny monkeys racing with apples.
The atmosphere in the audience was generally bright.
That is, until the next show.
“Ego! This is the end of the show of beasts gathered from all over the world!”
When the monkeys finished playing the drums, Roman reappeared and said, The atmosphere in the audience, which had been enjoying themselves, went down at those words, but Roman spread his arms as if aiming for it.
“But the main human show is from now on! The circus finale should always be fun!”
The middle-aged man with a bright smile pointed to the entrance where the animals came in and out.
“I am introducing! The man with two faces——!! A cursed man who is unique in the world!!! Spy—— Big!! Olds Ryan——!!!”
The lantern in the tent went out, and a gloomy light like a spotlight pointed at the entrance. ─Buck. Dubbeok. A man entered the stage with strange footsteps.
“Annit?!”
“Huh…”
“Quaaaaa!!”
The audience screamed at the man’s appearance. His appearance was so shocking.
“… It’s okay.”
Power went into the hand that held my hand. Franc covered his mouth and looked at the stage as if in amazement.
The man on stage had two heads on his head.
“”Hello!!””
Siamese twins. He was a deformed twin, as they are called.
He was wearing a large circus troupe, which was wider than a normal person’s, so I could imagine what he looked like inside.
“”Thank you to Captain Taylor for saving people with nowhere to go like us! Let’s start now!!”
The two men smiled distortedly with identical faces.
“”Freak show of the damned! Please enjoy!!”
