Chapter 1724: Evening Founding Festival with Shallow Vernal 7

Buying admission tickets, we went inside and took our seats. Most of the seats are already occupied, although I wouldn’t go so far as to say that the place is packed. As was the case at the target shooting tent, the inside is far more spacious than it looks from the outside, as if it had been expanded with Spatial Magic. This place looked like it could be as vast as a large theater.

And the fact that so many seats are occupied means that the theater company performing the Heroes of the Forest must be quite a popular troupe.

Incidentally, the fact that there are exceptionally good-looking seats available must be thanks to the support of the Gods.

Not long after we sat down, the lights dimmed and only the stage was illuminated, and the play began. n--OVelb1n

To be honest, I was slightly apprehensive at first. Knowing that the source material is based on me, I wondered if I could truly be able to enjoy it...... but it turned out to be a completely unfounded fear, as once the play started, I was immediately absorbed by the brilliant acting.

I mean, the original book itself is a book that has been considerably dyed with exaggerations, so when they change that up further, you can almost say it’s a different story.

It’s a story that is like a typical adventure, a hero tale with a protagonist who has come from another world, and I was able to enjoy it normally. Well, there are parts along the way where the original source becomes apparent, such as fighting what are obviously Black Bear-like enemies and visiting the King who rules the forest to seek salvation for the destroyed Elven City. It’s a bit itchy knowing the source material though......

At any rate, the theater was truly outstanding, with a variety of magical effects and realistic acting, and I lost track of time and became absorbed in the performance.

It would have been fine if this play just lasted for an hour. It’s only about 10 minutes from here to the clock tower, and we’d be well in time for the sunset. However, if two hours had passed, things would be very different.

I don’t know exactly how long the sunset lasts, but I know it’s not that long. If that’s the case, the worst-case scenario being that the sun has already set is highly likely.

[......S- Shiro-san? Umm, I think the night view is beautiful too, you know? I think it’s suitable for couples to watch together...... W- We don’t really have to be fixated on the sunset, and I do feel sorry for letting time slip away due to my carelessness...... but if possible, umm, can you not do something like rewind time?]

[It’s alright. I won’t be rewinding time.]

As expected, if the descended sun were to rise in the sky again, I would be worried about the stomachs of people Like Laguna-san and Chronois-san. And so, when I suggested to Shiro-san if she could just bear with the night view somehow, she readily agreed without much hesitation.

T- That’s good. I thought she was going to be fixated on the situation written in the magazine, but with this being the case......

[Anticipating something like this happening, “I’ve stopped the sun exactly just as it was setting”, so we can enjoy the perfect sunset without rewinding the time.]

[.........................]

I’d like you to stop looking so smug while saying such nasty power words. My thoughts can’t keep up here......

<Afterword>

Serious-senpai : [The power word “stopping the sun as it was setting”. Even if the Gods wanted to stop this, as they just can’t get in Shiro’s way, they can only stare at the sunset with dead fish eyes.]
