Just then, something caught my eye.
‘What about that one?’
It was a mini handbell that was played in music class.
Come to think of it, that was the only instrument I could handle well.
‘Then I’ll play the handbell…… Ack!’
While I was confidently trying to decide on a theme for the school festival performance, I realized one very important fact.
‘Come to think of it, there are a total of eight handbells, but my hand was only two instead of eight, right?’
It seemed impossible, except to create three more bodies with clones.
With regret, I reached out and fiddled with the handbell.
A clear sound resounded.
At that moment, Jake, who had just stood still without saying a word, approached.
“What is Mir going to do?”
“Well, Jake. I…….”
Haven’t thought about it yet.
The moment I was about to say that,
Jake said one step ahead of me.
“If you haven’t thought about it yet, why don’t we be together like the Prince and Lady Alice?”
“Umm…… great! By the way, do you have any good ideas?”
Jake seemed to be contemplating something with my question, then said, looking at the handbell like me.
“Mir was looking at this earlier. Did you want to play the handbell?”
“Oh, right. I did. But even if the two of us are together, there aren’t enough people.”
I made a sad voice.
Then Jake joked.
“We can make dolls that look just like us using clone magic.”
As expected, other people’s opinions are almost the same.
Jake was saying the same thing I imagined earlier.
Of course, the difference is that Jake can really use magic.
“Ah, there is no need for that. Unfortunately, I can’t help it. Let’s just do something else.”
That was when I waved my hand.
Suddenly Cedric and Ninaina approached us.
“If I can play the handbell, will you let us in?”
Ninaina, who had approached earlier, said confidently.
‘If there are four of us, the number of people fits!’
I nodded.
“Okay, let’s do it together!”

From lunchtime that day, we began full-fledgedly preparing for the school festival.
First, we talked about how to decorate for the festival.
Apparently, there was not enough space inside the kindergarten to accommodate a large number of guests.
Fortunately, there was a spacious lawn in the garden, so the venue for the performance was decided to be the garden.
“Who should we send the invitation to? Should I send them all to the noble families in the capital?”
Ninaina, who was writing on paper with a pen, suddenly raised her head and asked that question.
I shook my head.
“I think it would be good to send two or three invitations for each.”
“I think I would be dizzy if there were too many.”
Jake nodded his head.
As the other children agreed, it was decided to hold the school festival with only a small number of guests.
“Why don’t we match our outfits as well?”
Then, Nicholas cautiously suggested.
This was also a good idea.
“I think white would be good for winter, Brother.”
Ninaina voiced her opinion.
Putting us all together in white will make us look like a bunch of adorable snowmen.
As no other opinion came out, as Ninaina said, the school festival attire was decided to be “white clothes”.
‘Great!’
There was a white dress and winter cape set that I bought and couldn’t wear, but I thought I should try it this time.
At that moment, I saw Alice with her face in deep trouble.
‘By the way, Alice wouldn’t want to invite her family very much.’
She couldn’t even invite the fairies, though.
So Alice would only bring her friends and beings other than her family.
‘What to do?’
It was an issue I hadn’t thought of.
I was perplexed.
It seems that the other children haven’t noticed Alice yet…….
‘I’ll have to talk to Alice later.’
It was not good if Alice felt uncomfortable alone at the school festival where everyone had fun.
I decided to find a way.
And in our free time without classes, we each started practicing.
Maya was taking out his poems from the desk, choosing what to recite.
Alice and Nicholas headed together to the room where the piano was.
And the other four of us…….
“I want to play ‘Do, Re’.”
“Oh, Your Highness. I want ‘Re’ too.”
“What?”
Childishly, they were arguing over which note to play.
Of course it was Ninaina and Cedric.
“Why are you all like this? Let’s make it fair with rock, paper, scissors.”
It didn’t matter what I did, so I clearly mediated between the two of them.
After a while, we managed to get into practice, even having set our own handbell notes.
But there is a problem.
“Oh sorry. Was it my turn?”
Maybe it was because he didn’t read the score properly, Cedric kept shaking the bell one beat at a time or too fast.
‘What to do. I think Cedric is tone deaf..….’
