"Thank you for helping us" [Khamisah]
"Thank you from me too, Miss Vita, Mr. Manager!" [Diana]
"It's okay. I can definitely relate to what your sister said about the stalker part" [Vita].
"Mr. Nar having a stalker. That's terrible" [Neloufa].
"Anyway, if the stalker is here, I'll just let you know" [Manager]
"Thank you" [Khamisah]
While I have a good relationship with the Opera House, it's Sister Khamisah who helps set the stage for the date. Right now, they're doing a new performance, one that's been requested by the kingdom for the upcoming multi-nation conference to address the issue of the Devil King Awakening. The date has yet to be set, but they have already asked Neloufa to perform as well. Of course, they'll be asking for my help as well, only they're still designing the stage, so my presence isn't needed at the moment.
For now, I will drag Brother Nar here, and the excuse will be something like, "The Opera House has too many ideas and can't decide on a solid play, so they need outside input. That's not a lie, because I can see mountains of paper with rejected ideas, rewritten scripts, and even props.
"Should I really wear this..." [Jean]
"Wow! So pretty!" [Neloufa]
"Thank you" [Jean]
"Of course you have to wear it, Ms. Paladin" [Marianne]
"The bright yellow color, with your light yellow hair, it's perfect" [Vita].
"Perhaps we should add a hat as well" [Tio].
"Maybe even a rose clip for her hair" [Diana]
"Sometimes a simple dress is all that's needed" [Duchess of Fotress].
"I agree. Your daughter is already a beautiful lady, so there's no need for an over-the-top dress" [Duchess of Lion].
"Mother, Miss Duchess...." [Jean]
"Next time it'll be you in your sister's shoes" [Dana]
"Let's not provoke them..." [Liya]
And now, to bring Nar here, I already know where he is, so as soon as I find him, I just drag him over. He just finished his work and wanted to take a little break, so this is perfect timing! The other Special Knight of Amleth, seeing this, just smiles. Too bad Sas isn't here, otherwise I'd drag him and Miss Linda along for a double date.
In the theater, when they see that Nar is here, the others start to hide. I don't know why they want to hide, as for me, since I feel like observing them directly, I will also go on stage with Neloufa. A spontaneous act will definitely bring a more solid idea for the play, so they agreed.
I quickly take my place behind the stage and take a look at them as well. I remember Nar complimenting Jean on her dress, so far so good, just that
"Might as well make a note about their play" [Nar].
"True, while I don't think there's a topic to be addressed, it's better to be safe than sorry" [Jean].
They're still in their work mode!? They both start to take out their little book to make a note! I don't know whether to laugh or be impressed because they are thinking the same thing.
"Won't the stalker be convinced that they are nothing more than a friend this way..." [Manager]
"Not really, my instinct tells me that the stalker will still be angry" [Vita].
"I feel like they're more of a critic than a knight and paladin."
"There's not even a hint of romance around them."
"All right, shall we make a spontaneous performance with the theme of romance?" [Vita]
"Please don't, Miss Saga said this whole operation is to get evidence and catch the stalker" [Manager].
"Not really..." [Diana]
"They just wanted them to start dating. Well, let's set the mood for them. Neloufa, you are the female lead" [Vita]
"Huh!?" [Neloufa]
"Then I wanted to be the male lead!" [Diana]
"Fine, I'll be the evil villain who tried to break you up. How about a classic prince and princess?" [Vita]
"Yes!" [Diana]
"Can I back out..." [Neloufa]
"NO" [Diana, Vita]
"I thought so..." [Neloufa]
Within this short conversation between us, we quickly rearrange everything and start the performance.
