MukuIt’s, it’s finally the day….
KumonY-yes…
MukuWhat should I do? I’m just a potato whose sprout has just grown, so there’s a chance I will forget all my lines and costume when I go onstage….
TenmaThat would be amazing if you actually did that.
IzumiI think that would surely bring laughter to the audience!
KumonAs for me, I may miss the timing to come on stage, or I may just stay still on the stage for no reason…!
KazunariThat would be interesting in a different sense!
MisumiI’ll stay still with you~!
Yuki*sighs*, this negative combi’s delusion is running too wild.
MukuWhat, what should we do….
KumonWhat should we do….!
KazunariYour anxiousness will blow away once we form a circle!
TenmaHow should we form the circle? Seeing your appearance, you haven’t thought of anything, have you?
MisumiMuku and Kumon kept discussing about the circle last night, see~.
YukiThey actually prepared that properly.
KumonHehe.
KazunariWhat kind of circle are we going to form?
MukuUhh, it’s not really big….
Because the theme for this play is prince…. We put one hand on our chest and extend the other hand--.
KumonLike this!
KazunariThat’s cool~! How totally prince-y!
YukiHow embarrassing…
MisumiLet’s do it~!
TenmaRoll up your sleeves, Muku, Kumon.
KumonYes! Let’s do this, Muku!
MukuYes!
In order to break the princess’ curse, let’s go--!
Summer TroupeYeah!
Florence“Good morning, Lily. You’re beautiful today too. You look like a shining star in the night sky.”
Broto“Your highness, please give me a break. Both the King and Queen are worried because you’re like this.”
Florence“They’re worried, you say? What’s wrong?”
Broto“There isn’t a single moment where you relax--you’re always strolling around places. Furthermore, you have yet to find yourself a wife.”
Florence“It can’t be helped, you know? There are a lot of beautiful flowers in this world. Well, the most beautiful one is me though.”
Broto*sigh*...”
Florence“Don’t sigh, Broto. You will ruin your pretty face.”
Broto“I’m getting the creeps just hearing that.”
Florence“Bugs[1]!? Where is it!? I’m not good with bugs, you know!”
Broto“Gosh….”
Izumi(Just as I thought, those two look a little bit nervous. It’d be nice if they recover….)
Broto“So where are you planning to go to look for your bride?”
Florence“I heard there’s a beautiful princess in the East Country. Let’s try going there.”
Rose“--ugh.”
Florence“Oh my? You, the young boy over there, what’s wrong?”
Rose“--.”
Florence“Oh, no. So you got caught in a beast trap. Hold on a minute.”
“Look, you’re fine now. Your wound is slight, fortunately.”
Rose“....What’s your name?”
Florence“I’m Prince Florence from Flower Country. Your eyes are beautiful, huh. They’re vibrant and sparkling, just like the young leaves in May.”
Rose“What’s with this pervert?”
Broto“He’s always like this; please don’t mind him.”
Florence“Young boy, what’s your name?”
Rose“....Rose.”
Florence“What a lovely name. I also like roses.”
Rose“--.”
Florence“It’s getting dark soon. You should return home quickly.”
Rose“Where are you going?”
Florence“We’re in the middle of looking for a bride. We’re going to the East Country to meet the princess there.”
Rose“I’ll guide you there.”
Florence“Huh?”
Rose“I owe you for saving me.”
Florence“You have a strong sense of reciprocity, huh. Thank you. You’ll help us there.”
“That reminds me, this trap is dangerous. We have to move it somewhere else. It’ll be a pity if miserable little birds get caught in the trap again.”
“Whoah, it’s a bug--! Broto!”
Broto“I got it, I got it.”
Rose“....”
Izumi(I expect no less from Yuki-kun. Playing this kind of cheeky character is his forte. Florence’s narcissism has also turned into humor well.)
(Thanks to their dialogue exchange with Yuki-kun, both Muku-kun and Kumon-kun have relaxed a bit.)
Florence“So this is the castle of the East Country. It’s really big.”
Linkle“Not as big as mine, though.”
Florence“...You are?”
Linkle“I’m the second prince of Star Country, Linkle.”
Florence“Oh, I see. I am from Flower Country--.”
Linkle“Ah, you don’t have to introduce yourself. I won’t remember it, anyway.”
Florence“Is that so? Well, you won’t forget me once you see my beautiful face anyway. So I have no problem not giving you my name.”
Linkle“...”
Shine“What an overconfident prince.”
Florence“Who are you?”
Shine“I’m the first prince of Moon Country, Shine.”
Florence“Nice to meet you. I’m Florence from Flower Country.”
Sunny“So you’re from that Flower Country huh, that small country on the region. No wonder there’s a flower blooming on your head.”
Florence“So are you perhaps the sun? Both the color of your hair and your cloak are dazzling.”
Sunny“Hmph, that’s obvious. I’m the sun prince, after all. My name is Sunny. Remember it.”
Rose“....The princes are all weird.”
Broto“I think so too.”
Izumi(Kazunari-kun, Tenma-kun and Misumi-kun--everyone is actively leading Muku-kun and Kumon-kun.)
(Thanks to the dialogue exchange that they had with everyone, it seems like those two are finally back to their usual condition.)
King of East Country“I’d like to apologize to everyone who has come all the way here, but the princess isn’t able to be present at the moment due to some issues.”
Linkle“Huh?”
Shine“What’s the meaning of this?”
Florence“I wonder if the princess is a shy person.”
Sunny“But isn’t this supposed to be a formal meeting between countries?”
King of East Country“I am sorry. The wicked witch barged into our castle the other day and put a curse on the princess.”
“The princess can’t appear before people as long as she still has the curse on her.”
Linkle“It can’t be…”
Florence“Poor her…. She must have been discouraged.”
King of East Prince“I’m thinking of marrying the princess to whoever can break her curse.”
Florence“Wha--.”
Sunny“I see. You need to be quick.”
Linkle“I’ll break the princess’ curse by all means.”
Shine“I can’t hand over the princess of such a big country like East Country to someone else…”
Florence“I will save the princess no matter what!”
Rose“....”
Izumi(Muku-kun’s acting has gradually gotten better.)
(He looks stately, and his movement is elegant and beautiful. He uses the advice from Citron-kun and the others.)
(Thanks to Muku-kun’s acting, Prince Florence still looks noble and cool even though he’s a little bit dumb.)
Broto“So do you have any plans?”
Florence“Not at all.”
Broto“....*sigh*”
Rose“I heard there was something called moondrops in Moon Country that will grant your wish if you drink it.”
Florence“What? That’s good news. Let’s go search for it right this instant.”
Rose“I’ll guide you.”
Florence“Is it all right? You’re sure you don’t have any other stuff to do--.”
Rose“I’ve come too far to go back.”
Florence“Thanks. You are a good guy!”
Rose“...”
Florence“That’s right. Why don’t you become my retainer?”
Rose“I refuse.”
Broto“That’s a wise decision.”
Shine“Are you looking for the moondrops? You’ll get there faster if you use the path over there.”
Florence“I see! Thank you.”
Rose“Hold on. Aren’t you going to look for moondrops too?”
Shine“I’ve already got it.”
Rose“....”
Florence“We should hurry as well!”
Rose“Ah, wait a minu--.”
Shine“...I wish you good luck.”
Florence“Huh? Are there really moondrops in this place?”
Rose“....He got us. The moon prince was ahead of us.”
Broto“It feels like he purposely made us take a detour to buy some time.”
Florence“Huh? Is that so?”
Rose“You’re way too easy to be deceive.”
Florence“It can’t be--to think that there’s someone who will trick the beautiful me.”
Rose“....”
Broto“....He’s always like this.”
Rose“It can’t be helped, then. I have another plan. I heard there’s a thing called the stone of the sun in the Sun Country that can grant your wish.”
Florence“All right. The next destination will be the Sun Country, then.”
“Rose, why are you helping us this much?”
Rose“That, that is….”
Florence“I got it! So you’re actually looking for the princess as well. You plan to marry the princess, don’t you?”
Rose“You must be crazy. I never thought of wanting to marry someone whom I have never met. I’m different from you.”
Florence“Is that so? I love beautiful things, see. I’m sure the beautiful princess is loved more than anyone.”
“Though, because I’m the most beautiful one, I like myself the most.”
Rose“...”
Broto“Shall we go faster?”
Rose“Yeah.”
Sunny“Hey, this is a land managed by the royal family. What are you doing here, coming to this land without permission?”
Florence“We come to look for the stone of the sun.”
Sunny“Stone of the sun? That kind of thing is mere superstition, you know. How foolish.”
Florence“But we have to find a way to break the princess’ curse…”
Sunny“There’s also an option to find a skillful wizard, see; you don’t need to worry.”
Rose“We won’t know whether or not it’s superstition until we find it.”
Sunny“I’m the one who will break the princess’ curse. You all can return to your flower garden quickly.”
Florence“If the will break the princess’ curse, shall we go back?”
Rose“Why did you accept that so easily? Don’t you want to marry the princess?”
Florence“Well, it’s true that I want to marry her. But I don’t mind as long as the princess’ curse is broken.”
Rose“--Do what you want.”
Florence“Ah, Rose--.”
Broto“You made him angry.”
Florence“Hmm, I think I should give it a try and look for it too. I can give the stone of the sun as a present for the princess.”
Sunny“I’ve told you there’s no such thing here.”
Florence“Just like what Rose had said, we won’t know until we find it. Can you please let us search for it? We’ll make sure we won’t cause troubles.”
Sunny“I refuse.”
Florence“It can’t be…”
Broto“Your Highness, I think it’s no use discussing this. We should look for it secretly…”
Florence“We can’t do that. This place is his country, after all.”
Sunny“Besides, how do you plan to search for it in a place full of stones like this? If you plan to check it one by one, you’ll become an old man before you know it.”
“See, look at this. They’re all the sa--.”
Florence“Whoaaah!?”
Broto“It’s shining so brightly!”
Sunny“This is--.”
Florence“Is this perhaps the stone of the sun!?”
Broto“But it has broken into pieces because Prince Sunny threw it to the ground….”
Florence“Eeeeh!?”
Sunny“...So it does exist.”
Florence“Aaah…. Even though we’ve already found it…”
Sunny“Hm, Hmph. I don’t know anything!”
Florence“....”
Broto“Oh my goodness…”
Rose“See? That’s what you get for naively going along with such things.”
