"Ah?"
Upon hearing Leon's sowhat startled inquiry, Agatha, nestled in his embrace, shivered slightly, then buried her head into his chest with a sudden thrust. With reddened ears and a face full of embarrassnt, she tenderly said,
"Darling?"
"..."
*I asked for the aning of that question, not for you to start calling
that. I wanted to know why you're using my real na!*
And just as Leon was thunderstruck by Agatha... or perhaps the Princess's response, standing there totally bewildered and unsure whether to let go or to bravely continue with the act, over two thousand fan bubbles from the theatrical world above had started screaming madly, thrilled by the sugary romance of this sudden couple.
"I... I can't take it anymore! Aaaaaaahhhhh!!!"
"So sweet! This sugar level is illegal! I'm going to be sweetened to death!"
"Marry! Marry! Don't wait till tomorrow, marry right now!"
"This is so sweet, I have to twist around! I'm twisting crazily! I'm gonna roll!"
"Changing to 'darling' instantly... I... I'm done!"
*Everything's ruined... just ruined...*
Seeing the waves of pink bubbles above the theatrical world desperately swirling like the sea, the Master of Drama on the real-world stage went weak-kneed and plopped onto the floor, his eyes filled with hopeless grayness.
*Clearly... clearly I'm the Master of Drama... I'm supposed to be the Creator of this script!*
*And these damned audiences, do they have any sense of drama appreciation at all?*
*The play's been altered beyond recognition, with no setup beforehand whatsoever, and then suddenly they're crashing a wedding. Don't you find it abrupt? Also, the protagonist's mom, who was characterized as a loving but stern elder, just handed her daughter over after being asked a question? Doesn't that feel awkward to you?*
*And most importantly, where's Elijah, the second male lead? He just expressed his deep affection halfway, but hasn't spoken up until now, as if it was soone else's fiancée being snatched. Just standing stiffly with the groom's relatives on stage, and you don't think the second male lead's performance is... oh wait!*
*Elijah was the protagonist I designed! That Joseph guy was the second male lead! No, not even the second! He was rely a supporting character ant to highlight the protagonist's bravery and wisdom, who should have disappeared after the tavern scene of the first act!*
Realizing his perception suffered a strange imbalance, even mistaking the protagonist's identity, the Drama King couldn't help but tremble as he raised his arm and gazed at the script of "Twelve Days' Journey" on his arm.
Under his desperate gaze, the script of "Twelve Days' Journey" slowly flipped open, with Elijah, initially penned in as the protagonist, having vanished without a trace at so point, replaced by a na that made him grit his teeth.
[Main Character: Mr. Joseph]
[Description: On the surface, a frivolous youth from the small town of Ankara, fond of wearing such opulent and peculiar attire, wandering about. Yet behind the scenes, he is the holder of the Kingdom's largest chamber of comrce, an heir to great nobility. His seemingly carefree, comical exterior is rely a guise for his true self. When the heroine Agatha connects deeply with him and gradually understands his painful, struggling inner world, she slowly discovers his genuine, passionate nature...]
*He struggles for nothing! He has no inner world! This bastard, at most, has a genuine and passionate basket!*
Seeing the forcibly altered, terribly disfigured background, the Drama King couldn't help but be consud by fiery rage. After issuing a few indecent curses without any master's deanor, he suddenly fainted to the ground amid a swirl of dizziness and noise.
And at this critical mont, among those hysterically wild pink bubbles above, a certain red bubble, which successfully led several tis at key monts, stood out once more. With two tiny legs wobbling, it climbed to the highest point, directly raising its arm and shouting,
"Sisters! Is Mr. Joseph handso?"
"Handso!"
"Is the new plot good?"
"Good!!"
"Comparing with Master Wilde's original work, isn't the new version better?"
"Yes!!!"
If you had to choose between Master Wilde and Mr. Joseph, would you pick Mr. Joseph, right?
"Yes!!!!"
"Well, that settles it!"
Standing on the high platform built by a crowd of bubbles, looking at the densely packed supporters below, and a few opponents who, despite resisting, were outnumbered and already caught and locked up, the bright red bubble let out a sinister laugh, then proudly threw back its head and howled to the sky,
"Co on, let us knock down that incompetent Master Wilde, and let the most handso Mr. Joseph be the ruler of the theatrical world henceforth... um..."
Seeing the Drama King glaring down at him with eyes filled with fury, the red bubble shivered all over, then toppled directly off the platform, instinctively trying to dive into the pile of bubbles.
Unfortunately, although most bubbles look similar, others were mostly light pink. Only this one, as the head of Joseph's fan club, was thoroughly red, so although it managed to burrow into the bubble pile successfully, the next second, it was snatched out by the Drama King.
And as it entered the Drama King's palm, the big red bubble twisted slightly before it uncontrollably began to expand quickly, then gradually revealed its true form...
A grinning goat head?
Drama King: "..." (艹皿艹)
Black Goat: "..." (*??▽??*)
Seeing the roasted sheep's head that "Mr. Joseph" once took away and then disappeared into thin air, never to appear again, the Drama King shook with rage.
*I wondered why every critical mont, you stand up and lead people astray. So you're a damned instigator!!!!!*
"Well... Master, we can explain..."
Relying on its ability to sense anger, feeling the ocean of fury in the Drama King's soul that could roast it alive to jerky, the Black Goat couldn't help but swallow a bit, sheepishly explaining:
"Uh... I really didn't want to do this job, but Leon... that scoundrel playing Mr. Joseph, he insisted that having officials guide, control the fanbase, and steer the direction of public opinion is the basic community operation one must imdiately do after airing a new-age drama."
"Uh... I don't even know what he ant, but I'm just a poor Demon working for him, never getting any souls, just hoping he'd shell out so cash to buy a bit of smoke to whet my appetite... so I can only do whatever he says."
"Uh heh heh... so it really wasn't targeting you. Master, I've also watched your play, like that sculptor's wife who cheats with her apprentice, it's really intense, made
fiery with excitent, so I'm actually your fan. Can't you just consider
a fart and let it go..."
"Help! Leon, help! Soone's killing a goat!!!"
