Chapter 98 – Funny Show of Circus (19)
However, there was another person who came to us to catch our breath.
“Two minutes. Thank you very much for visiting our circus today.”
The person who came to the special room was a middle-aged woman wearing a stiff tailcoat.
Less than 30 minutes were left before the circus started, and Alexandra, the leader, came to visit. I got up from my seat in surprise.
“This. Are you okay? It didn’t matter if you came after the circus was over.”
“I can’t take up your busy time.”
Alexandra said with a skillful smile.
“Larilura was placed on probation. So I’ll be on the show today, but I guess it’s only possible tomorrow to see you guys again.”
“Okay. I heard you’re leaving soon.”
“Yes. The circus has to pay attention to the atmosphere of the city. I always want the ace of our circus to understand that.”
Alexandra smiled bitterly. I could understand that feeling because I had experienced the covetousness and moderate heat of that coy stubborn man.
“You are suffering a lot. We also came to say goodbye today, so it’s a relief to be able to see you like this.”
“This is polite. It is an honor to come to you on purpose.”
Alexandra shows off a dignified greeting—perhaps something she learned to perform for aristocrats.
She said goodbye to us with her polite demeanor.
“If the kite touches, there will be a chance to see you again someday. Even then, I won’t charge you two, so please tell the members at the concert that you are my acquaintances.”
“Yes. Alas, yes. Thank you for preparing this special room today. I will enjoy watching.”
“You are welcome. Then I’m sorry. May there be only blessings on the path ahead of you two.”
After leaving a greeting, Mr. Alexandra also left.
‘Somehow, it seems that the ties we met here are being sorted out one by one.’
I didn’t get to say goodbye to Rosanna properly, but I was told that Mourn Fran or Lari Lou Lalan did say hello to her.
So with this, it was like saying goodbye to most of the people involved in this case.
We waited for the show to begin, feeling a bit lonely in the quiet private room.
“Ladies and gentlemen!! Thank you very much for coming to our ‘Circus Plangoongkula’ today!!”
And the time was ripe, and the circus began.
Alexandra, who appeared on the stage of the Colosseum, looked back at the audience and greeted them. The applause continued and then stopped.
“—Today. The wicked villains who disturbed this city, Haysbent, have been met with the mace of justice.”
Alexandra, unlike usual, drew a long comment.
“Heroes who wished to remain anonymous revealed the evil deeds of the Chrysos Circus, which kept the citizens awake at night, and proved that justice remained in the world. All of the kidnapped children returned to their families.”
At those words, the atmosphere that spread through the seats was palpable even in the special room. It was joy and joy.
At some point, everyone seemed to have heard of what we had done.
“Today’s show will be the last show of our Plankunkula Circus.”
At the brief words, a sigh was heard from the audience. Alexandra said as she listened to the lamentation.
“I will unfold a circus with all my heart to put a single flower on the slope of Haysbent, even if it is insufficient. Then please enjoy.”
She closes her eyes tightly and raises her fingers as her voice raises her tension by refreshing her mood.
“Welcome to those who are meeting for the first time!! Greetings of joy to those who see you again!! A grand show by our proud circus performers that will present the best memories to everyone who came tonight!!”
Mr. Alexandra, who put his feet together, pointed at the night sky with her index finger and screamed loudly.
“From now on, uh–!! Shiiyi- small!!! I do aa——!!!!”
With those words as a signal, the circus started.
Although the contents and order of the circus I saw yesterday had not changed at all.
Still, there was something that could be more beautiful, more enjoyable, and more exciting.
‘Ah, I see.’
I realized while enjoying the circus with Fran.
The fact that even the members of the circus are enjoying the show with a smile when not in a serious mood.
A circus that makes everyone in this place smile.
Surely, that would be the best circus that could never be created through force or violence.
***
So the next day, I woke up in a king-size bed.
The bed in the 15-cooper inn was softer than expected.
“12 hours RAM sleep OFF.”
Closed the pocket watch.
I fell asleep at 12 and woke up at 12.
That is, 12 hours of sleep from 12:00 AM to 12:00 PM.
I think the fucking gestalt collapse is coming.
“Ugh…”
Besides, on rare occasions, I woke up earlier than Fran.
Our Fran doesn’t wake up even after sleeping for 12 hours. Are you doing that because you are suffering because of me? When I thought that, my conscience stung and my heart pounded, but something suddenly came to my mind.
“What is Laliluru?”
Since it was already afternoon, it wouldn’t be strange if the circus troupe had left the city.
Could it be that we overslept and left without saying goodbye? I went down to the first floor, got dressed and went outside to ask. There was no need to wake Fran.
─Click.
But when I opened the doorknob and went outside, a clown with a torn mouth was glaring at me.
“What a fuck!”
“Heeheeeee?!”
I thought my liver was going to run out and got ready for battle, but the girl who was sleeping next to the clown doll woke up in surprise.
That psychedelic pink pink hair!
Needless to say, it was Lalilura raised at someone else’s house.
No, Shibal-nim, why are you here?
“Seo-seo, senior? Oh? Uh? Did I ever fall asleep?”
“I guess so.”
“Boo, what a shame! Can you pretend I didn’t see it?”
Rari Lura, who checked to see if she was drool, said while brushing her butt. Our circus girl was asleep in the hallway, still in her clown costume.
I asked because I wanted to see it.
“Did you keep waiting at the door to say hello to us?”
Why is that? It’s burdensome. I could have just knocked on it, came in, said good-bye, and left.
However, at my question, Lalilura smiled brightly and said:
“Is there something☆? I was scolded by the captain yesterday and kicked out of the circus troupe!”
“——What?!”
You say you got kicked out? At the circus? I forgot that Frank was still sleeping at that startling remark and I opened her mouth.
Even so, Lalilura smiled carefreely.
“Aha♡! They said, ‘Try to be a bard by yourself until you grow up, then return to Romania’! Thanks to you, Lingling sat down on the street with only No. 3, the money she saved up, and her clothes☆!”
“That, that, that? That’s too bad.”
However, it wasn’t strange if the employer fired me because I just chose not to do it. More than anything, it’s because he’s a skillful guy who can make a living and live better than a decent adventurer named Lalilu.
‘But I didn’t know it would turn out like this.’
It feels like doing bad things together with us and making a flaw in the career of a fine kid and digging his family register.
Larry Lura twisted her body and asked if she was aware of my guilt.
“So, senior~♥? Do you mean that? Can I take care of you two for the time being?”
“… What are you doing?”
“No way. Isn’t that grand? I have no experience of living on my own, so I often want to get help from Fran and seniors. Oh ☆! Of course, I’ll repay the favor properly~? How about something called give and take♥?”
Larry Lura teased her by putting her finger on her cheek.
I was shy, but I didn’t become a character-breaker enough to give a fuck here.
We must have a certain amount of responsibility, and to be honest, we are a talented guy named Lariru. It was okay to say that there was nothing to lose by her friendship.
“Ha… Okay.”
So I nodded.
“Even we can’t be great people separately, but I’ll tell you within the scope of what I can tell you. But we’ll be going back to Sargadis soon, too? Can you follow me then?”
“Yes~♡! Long live~!! It’s the first time I’ve made friends outside of the circus troupe☆!!”
Oh, the tension is fresh and lively, so I’m going to go after it. I got a headache.
Anyway, I’m glad he’s full of energy compared to the spicy background. It’s better to be like that than to be depressed. It’s not like I’m acting while pretending to be energetic.
“Don’t worry♥! I have no regrets☆!”
Ralilura said as if she had noticed my gaze.
“Isn’t your senior like that too? Even if she was a senior, if she had lost money saving Erica or the other children, she wouldn’t have been okay, right?”
“No, if it were me, I would have regretted it 100%.”
“Yes?!”
Lari Loura was startled as if she had heard a sound she hadn’t really heard. She jumped a meter in place. He’s such a freaking guy who can’t keep his cool.
Her tears, Lari Lura, shuddered through her body with her dead eyes.
“I can’t! Senior, I’m disappointed! How can you? No, I understand how you feel! I think so too! You can say, ‘I will do that too~’, right?”
“I’m sorry, but I’m careful not to lie to my conscience.”
I crossed my arms and leaned my back against the wall.
What if, in return for saving the kidnapped children, he fell down in the job he invested in, like Lalilura?
In my case, it’s probably the damage that got my master’s degree suspended.
‘Fuck.’
Just thinking about it made my stomach ache. I regret that 140%. Every night I would hug Fran and weep and fall asleep.
So I said
“You must have regretted it. I would regret it very much and frown. I would have cried and cried every day wondering why the hell did I do that. … But.”
If that was what I really wanted to do, the price I paid for fighting against the absurdity I was angry with.
I’d only lose money for someone I didn’t know.
“But I’m sure you could have laughed.”
If only I could proudly open my chest and boast to Fran.
I must have been able to laugh while regretting it.
“Ahaha☆! Did you mean that? Really! What is it, seniors too! You usually act like a fool, but sometimes you say nice things~♡”
Upon hearing my words, Larry Lura, she jumped excitedly.
Are you fucking kidding me? Are you kidding me? Shall I hit you? I think the violence license issued by Alexandra is still valid.
“By the way, how long are you going to talk about that senior?”
“Until I get tired of it! In other words, the day I was demoted from a senior to Mr. Nord would mean that my likability within me was lowered~☆!”
“No, call me by name from the beginning, bitch.”
“How are you♡! Even though the name Nord isn’t your real name~!”
“It’s a Nord here. Wouldn’t it be rather difficult to call him Kang Buk-ho? If you twist it, you’ll have to give out your real name too.”
When I said that, Lalilura put on a cheeky expression.
“Yes♥? Could it be that senior, you wanted to know my name, so you secretly cheated~? Cook Cook Cook. If that’s what you wanted to know, just tell me! Then I would have let you know.”
“Vector-Chamkyo──”
“Ah!! I’ll tell you!! I’ll tell you, so don’t do that!!”
Larry Lura hit an iron wall on her side and said.
“Priscilla! It’s Priscilla! My real name! I don’t know your last name!”
“Priscilla?”
As I recited the name, Lalilura puffed out her cheeks.
“Yes. You know everything? Are you saying it doesn’t suit you? Why? Doesn’t it feel like I’m pretending to be proud that doesn’t match my impression? I know you think it’s a name that would suit a modest young lady~?”
“Why. What a good name.”
To Lalilura, who was blatantly showing off her temper, I spoke with sincerity and no lies.
“The etymology of Priscilla is Priscus in Romanian. Priscus is a word that means ‘a virtuous person’ or ‘old’.”
“Huh. Why?”
“Priscilla, used as a human name, means ‘I hope to live a long life while being loved by many people'”
I asserted There was no doubt about this etymology because the nuances I heard with my translation ability gave me a soft and affectionate feeling.
──That’s why.
“Priscilla. You were born blessed by your parents.”
As a name to be given to a child born, Priscilla is a name that is clear about what it means.
“────.”
Priscilla, no, Lalilura, stiffened as if dumbfounded by my words. ─Shashak!! Then he suddenly covered his neck with his hand.
“Eh? Uh huh? What, what? What is it? How does this feel?”
Lalilura rolls her eyes and stutters at her. The blood rushed to the nape of her neck and the skin on her face cooked like charcoal thrown into a fire.
“Stop, senior! I feel weird! My body tickles and I can’t control my limbs?! Why are you doing this?!”
“You’re not. Don’t smirk after you ask.”
“Oh, cringe? Are you saying this is cringe?”
“Isn’t it the day after tomorrow?
He says don’t do it, so he fucks me like an old man. Even when I frowned, Lari Lura didn’t care about her cramps and rubbed her cheeks up and down.
“It’s cringing! It’s a strange feeling! Remembering what you just said, her face is about to burst like a loaf of bread that has been kneaded incorrectly!”
“Then… Let’s not recall…”
Fuck. When I think about it, I feel so embarrassed all of a sudden. Did I get stained with the different world-style gambit at some point? I don’t know how you took that seriously.
‘This shit. For some reason, it seems that one more dark history has been added.’
Even my face is hot. What should I do?
My elite vector-master cerebral. Tell me the correct answer
(Brain: Chun-in-nim, hurry up and commit suicide!!)
Yabalyeonah
I clicked my tongue and changed the subject.
“Anyway, have you thought about what you’re going to do next?”
“I don’t know☆! The seniors are adventurers, so when you give a take, do you think I will help them too?”
Give a take That’s a very silly expression.
Is this bastard’s real name Priscilla Shakespeare? It’s a damn cool name. It seems to be a boss mob.
“Okay. I’m thinking of taking a break for a while. I don’t know if something urgent happens, I’ve been rolling too much without a break lately.”
I answered. Me and Fran too have been so rolling these days without a day off. Now I’m going to take a bronze class, wouldn’t it be okay to take a few days off with the money I luckily gathered?
“Extra!!! Extra!!!!”
It was when I thought so. We opened our eyes wide at the sound of loud shouting outside the window.
This makes perfect sense, the 15 copper inn is on a 15 gold piece of land.
Did you see that there is a Hanaro Mart next to the Chanel luxury bag store? As a rule of thumb, a proper store should have geographical conditions suitable for its customer base.
In that sense, that shout was unusual.
It means that a super-big scandal has broken out that the news has spread to this rich neighborhood.
─Meadak!
Me and Lalilura ran to the window.
On the street outside the window, a man with a bread hat, who was not sure if he was a newspaper seller, was shouting with his voice.
“──The news that a group of golems have raided Sargadis!!!”
A bunch of golems. The Sargadis. Swoop?
I’ve been thinking about that word. Golem swarm means swarm of golems, Sargadis is my home city, and raid is a word used to refer to a fucking 4-drone juggling rush, isn’t it?
“Hmm.”
After chewing, biting, tasting, and enjoying it, I loaded the words that came to my mind raw into a spit and shredded my brain.
“Ah~ C8!”
Let’s take a break, dogs.
