Chapter 136: Players Participate in the Rikkai Sea Festival!
The player who was temporarily called on to play the role of "Poison Apple" accepted the situation calmly.
Although the performers on the stage were in turmoil, they did not show it on their faces and seemed to accept the current situation calmly.
The only thing that was not so calm was the audience in the audience.
"No...how on earth does this look like a poisoned apple?!"
"This is clearly a person, right? Why did they have to use a person to cosplay the poison apple?!"
The audience's small eyes were filled with big question marks.
The lucky ones from Seigaku, Shitenhoji, and Rikkai University who hadn't been caught by the cat were also trying to understand.
Kikumaru Eiji read it over and over again, "So... where does it all start with Apple?!"
Fuji Shusuke narrowed his eyes, carefully observing it from head to toe. Finally, his eyes stopped at the top of Mushroom Head's head, the apple stem that had been gnawed cleanly. Then he said with a smile,
"So that's how it is..."
Kikumaru Eiji: "?"
No, what was it originally like?? Explain it clearly, Fuji!!
There were many people who were as puzzled as Kikumaru and were caught off guard by the twists and turns of the plot, but the performance on stage continued.
I have to say that the main actors were very dedicated and professional. They accepted the fact that the cat suddenly appeared and turned into a poisoned apple, and they smoothly followed the plot forward.
"Oh~~~What a beautiful apple~"
Snow White (Golden Koharu Version) held her cheeks and shyly praised in surprise like a girl. He blinked his big Carslan eyes and looked at the Evil Queen (Atobe Keigo Version).
"Can I really eat this beautiful apple?"
"Of course," Keigo Atobe quickly pushed the cat apple in his hand towards Snow White Golden Koharu, almost getting rid of the troublemaker.
"Eat," he gritted his teeth and forced out the words to face the golden-haired Xiaochun's face, which was absolutely indescribably beautiful no matter how he looked at it.
"After all, you are the most beautiful person in the world—"
To a certain extent, it is very consistent with the character's current mood, making the audience in the audience can't help but empathize with him.
Golden Xiaochun was overjoyed and shyly flung her hands away: "Oh, that's annoying~~ Don't praise me like that——!"
"—Then I'll get started without further ado!"
The golden-haired Xiaochun pursed her lips and moved closer to the cat.
Seeing the distance gradually shrinking... shrinking... shrinking,
At this moment, whether on or off the stage, everyone familiar with the style of the cat-pushing team was sweating coldly. Pushing the cat onto the stage was indeed a helpless move to save the situation.
In this situation, I can only pray that Jibaimao won't do anything out of the ordinary.
"Clang" sounded clear and loud.
Cat! A clean uppercut!
Everyone's eyes were fixed on Snow White Golden Koharu, who was punched into the ceiling. She spun 360 degrees in the air and fell to the ground with a thud.
After a while and a few struggles, he stopped moving.
“…”
“…”
"Is this some kind of...poisoned apple attack incident?"
"...but it didn't mention physical attacks..."
But to some extent it is also consistent with the original work.
There have been many Snow Whites who were choked half to death by poisoned apples, but there is only one Snow White who was beaten half to death by a poisoned apple!
As they walked towards the increasingly bewitching and enchanting stage, the audience, after a brief moment of bewilderment, gradually came to accept it, feeling strangely contaminated and thinking that this wasn't so bad.
Suddenly, everyone applauded Snow White, the poisonous cat Apple, and the evil queen who had fallen on the stage, and some even shouted "good!"
"Okay—one more!!"
The cold sweat rolled down their foreheads uncontrollably, and everyone in the audience was embarrassed.
Oishi Hideichiro took a deep breath, and then another deep breath.
With sympathy and pity, he said, "I wonder... How is everyone at Shitenhoji?"
Frankly speaking, not very good.
Chitose Chisato had already turned his head away silently, trying to distance himself from the group of people on the stage.
Both Zaizen Guang and Ishida Gin looked at the golden Koharu who was knocked down by an uppercut, and they were both a little confused.
The only two people present who were different were Kintaro Toyama who shouted "What a fast punch, good job!" and Yuji Ichiuji who shouted "Don't hit Koharu - hit me if you want to hit me!"
It’s interesting that Crouching Dragon and Phoenix Chick appear in Shitenbo Temple at the same time.
There is no time to mourn for the Shitenboji Temple in the audience, because the seven dwarfs who are about to arrive at the scene are the shocking seven dwarfs!
When Takeshi Momoshiro (Seven Dwarfs version) opened the door at home, he saw Snow White (Golden Koharu version) lying on the ground with her eyes closed after being knocked down by a punch.
He was shocked, "What should I do! Snow White isn't breathing!!"
He burst into tears, "Poor Snow White, I told you not to open the door, and now you're opening it!"
He was furious: "Who killed Snow White? I want revenge! I want rivers of blood to flow!"
He was filled with grief: "Snow White—you left at such a young age, and it's okay to leave, but it's okay to leave like this—"
"...Atao, what are you doing?"
The Qingxue people who were laughing one second and couldn't laugh the next looked at the field and suddenly started crying and laughing and jumping around all over the field.
Momoshiro Takeshi, who kept changing his position, stood on Snow White's left, then on Snow White's right, and then on top of Snow White. His eyes twitched for a while before he finally saw the current situation clearly.
"So this is... schizophrenia?"
"Seven schizophrenic dwarfs, so they are seven dwarfs..."
"...Seven of me?"
With the example of Shitenhoji Temple, Momoshiro Takeshi's performance seemed acceptable, and Qingxue endured it for a while.
I kept comforting myself in my heart, "It's okay, it's okay."
Fudomine, the only one who escaped, looked at the desperate Shitenhoji on the left and the desperate Seigaku on the right, and for the first time he felt that they were really lucky... It was great that they were not harmed by any of the evildoers!
After the schizophrenia ended, the Seven Dwarfs·Taocheng version dragged the fallen Snow White·Golden Xiaochun version into the glass coffin.
She placed small white flowers seven times and said seven more times, "Everyone who passes by here will see how beautiful Snow White is and will gain true eternal life here."
The light dimmed and the narrator spoke.
"The evil queen poisoned Snow White to death. The seven dwarfs were so heartbroken that they decided to leave. Just then, a prince was on his way on horseback!"
The spotlights came on—the beams of light gathered together, and the person who appeared before everyone's eyes was none other than Echizen Ryoma, dressed in riding clothes and being dragged by a horse!
“…”
"...As expected, you showed up, Echizen." Fuji said with a smile.
Everyone in Seigaku looked numbly at Ryoma Echizen, who was struggling to pull at the horse's reins and was nearly dragged off the horse after pulling for a long time. The only thought in their hearts was "How miserable, really miserable."
Horses are friendly aid from players.
The pony that was a good kid under the player's control, ran around like crazy when it met an NPC.
Echizen Ryoma finally managed to pull his horse over.
The next second, Echizen Ryoma was dragged over by the horse.
Finally, a carrot was caught in front of the horse, and Echizen wiped his face with difficulty and went back on the court.
This was the Nth time he passed by the coffin where Snow White lay, but he was extremely surprised and astonished as if he was seeing it for the first time. He stammered and stumbled,
"Ah! What a beautiful Snow-White!"
"...Thank you for your hard work, Echizen."
“It’s really not easy for a little one…”
Echizen Ryoma looked at the golden-haired Koharu lying flat on her back with difficulty. "What a beautiful person! How can she lie here? There is a hall in my father's palace. The entire hall is made of white stone. I want to move this beautiful person and the glass coffin to that beautiful white stone hall!"
After finishing the lengthy dialogue, Echizen Ryoma tried to carry the glass coffin while fishing for carrots and leading the horse.
He tried to bear it, but it didn't move.
In silence, Echizen Ryoma kept pushing and shoving while constantly signaling backstage with his eyes.
The people in the background who witnessed everything received the signal,
"What should I do? Echizen seems unable to move the glass coffin. Is there anyone who can go up and help?"
Everyone looked at each other, and finally, their gazes turned to a certain direction at the same time.
Once again sensing sight, the player who was still staring at the progress bar slowly raised his head and faced the NPCs.
cat:"……?"
What do these NPCs want to do?
The spotlight flickered suddenly—
The audience's eyes went dark and bright, and what appeared before their eyes again was the Chicken Cat that fell from the sky.
Echizen Ryoma looked at him, he looked at Echizen Ryoma,
With a deadpan expression and fish-eyes, the player picked up the golden Xiaochun and raised his hands above his head.
Echizen Ryoma's eyes twitched as he watched him, looking like he was about to throw Golden Koharu out at any moment. He held back and was about to speak his lines.
The next second, the narrator suddenly said,
"Dear Prince, who did you lose? The Gold Snow Princess on the left, the Silver Snow Princess on the right, or the Bronze Snow Princess in the middle?"
Echizen Ryoma: “…”
Audience: “…”
No, this is a different channel! ?
But fortunately, Echizen Ryoma's on-the-spot quality was really strong, and he spoke firmly with his brain online.
"No, neither the Gold Snow Princess, nor the Silver Snow Princess, nor the Bronze Snow Princess, I have lost them all—I only want Snow White."
As soon as these words came out, Ichiuji Yuji was so moved that he burst into tears, "I am so moved! It speaks to my heart completely——!"
The people in Shitenboji Temple, with complicated expressions, could now calmly nod and apologize to the other affected spectators.
"Sorry, sorry, this guy has a very low tear point, please be considerate, be considerate--"
On the stage, Echizen Ryoma, who spoke the above lines, quickly glanced at the cat carrying the golden Koharu.
For some reason, he always felt vaguely uneasy in his heart.
This intuition kept poking at his heart, as if the cat was about to give him a big blow next -
"—What an honest man! As a reward, I will give you Snow-Gold, Snow-Silver, Snow-Bronze, and Snow-White!"
As soon as the narrator finished speaking, a golden statue of Koharu fell from the sky with a "boom"!
Fortunately, Echizen Ryoma sensed the danger intuitively and dodged it with his agility.
He stopped and took a breath, before he even finished speaking.
The next second there were two more 'boom boom' sounds!
Ryoma Echizen, who was standing in place, suddenly had two silver Koharu and bronze Koharu falling from his left and right!
All of a sudden, there appeared golden Koharu, silver Koharu, bronze Koharu on the stage - and the unconscious Koharu!
He looked around blankly, and saw Xiaochun everywhere!
This was indeed not in the script and was a completely unexpected part. Echizen Ryoma slowly turned his head and was surrounded by Koharu and the others. He slowly turned his head again and looked at the culprit - the cat carrying the unconscious Koharu.
Jibaimao met the NPC's gaze, thinking about the last bit of the scene progress bar, and pondered for a moment.
The player took two quick steps, and with great efficiency and fluidity, he threw the unconscious Koharu into the last empty space in front of Echizen Ryoma.
With a "boom", all around Echizen Ryoma was Koharu!
It was even a blessing in disguise. When the heavy blow hit the comatose Golden Xiaochun, he bumped into the glass coffin with a "clang" and actually woke up successfully.
When he opened his eyes, he was faced with Prince SAMA, who was surrounded by three of himself.
Wait, three selves?
Golden Xiaochun looked around in confusion.
The golden self, the silver self, and the bronze self... Could this be—
"Prince SAMA, I already feel your love~~ Please be polite to me! Hehehe——"
Echizen Ryoma: “…”
He couldn't help wanting to step back.
This guy from Shitenhoji Temple is a bit scary.
But Echizen Ryoma forgot that at this moment, all around him were Koharu!
He can't escape at all!
"Damn it, I'm so jealous of Koharu... Jealous, jealous, jealous—"
Off the field, Shitenhoji was already accustomed to the resentment surrounding Ichiuji Yuji.
Looking at Echizen Ryoma who was slowly being pushed into a corner, everyone felt a little pity.
The narrator inserted at the right moment, "--And so, the prince and the awakened Snow White lived happily ever after."
The spotlight went out, and Echizen Ryoma's frightened voice, "Don't come over here," could be heard faintly.
The audience looked at each other in bewilderment, then slowly clapped their hands in confusion.
Well, it seems... quite interesting?
After the task was completed, the player who had hidden his merits and fame watched the progress of the play finally reach the final 100%.
[Ding——Settlement is now underway!]
The rating for this stage play performance of "Snow White" is SSS!
【Congratulations! You have achieved the highest satisfaction score in the whole venue! 】
Jibaimao was satisfied, and the NPCs were finally let go.
“…I don’t want to act in a stage play anymore…”
"……Me too."
The voices of Shitenhoji and Hyotei were missing only the voice of Rikkai University.
Atobe Keigo and Shiraishi Kuranosuke turned around and saw Yukimura Seiichi and Sanada Genichirō with lingering bitterness on their faces.
After all... the next show is their tennis club's "Cinderella" stage play performance.
After wiping his face, Yukimura regained his spirits and said, "Call everyone over, it's our turn to go on stage soon."
He thought of something and turned around: "Where's Chiye? He was very resistant to wearing a skirt during rehearsal, but now he..."
"——I'm ready, Minister Yukimura!!!"
An extremely loud and clear sound was heard, and the person who appeared in front of everyone again was none other than Kelp Head, wearing an elaborate palace dress and with a fearless look on his face!
"Akaye, what are you doing..."
Because the expression on a certain kelp head's face was too resolute and decisive, as if there would be no tomorrow after today, Yukimura Seiichi carefully asked,
Kirihara Akaya: "Don't worry about me - wearing a skirt is nothing if I want to be a reliable senior!!"
"Um……"
Yukimura Seiichi smiles,
So...what is the connection between wearing a skirt and being a reliable senior?
Kirihara Akaya was talking loudly while glancing in a certain direction, trying to attract the cat's attention, especially emphasizing the syllables in "reliable senior".
Damn it, he was right here——why didn’t Kei bring him to play just now? QAQ!!!
Kelp heart, sea needle,
The performance of the stage play "Cinderella" performed by the members of the Rikkai University Tennis Club was performed.
Finally returning to the audience seats and being able to sit down in the true sense, everyone from Shitenhoji, Seigaku, and Hyotei felt that this simple happiness was hard-earned and they cherished it all the more.
That's great, I'm actually this happy when I'm not being fucked around...
Fudomine: Silence.
Once again, I am extremely grateful that... I was not targeted by the cat and rooster, otherwise the three schools would be in a dying state right now - that is their future!
The scope of the cat-and-bone persecution is still expanding, specifically manifested in the gloomy faces and exhausted spirits of the five school members.
The culprit behind all this, Jibaimao Benmao, was now in high spirits.
As the final countdown and the final performance report are about to end——
Players are already rubbing their hands and can't wait for the final mission settlement page, the player's rewards, the player's experience, the player's achievements -
Ding!
The highly anticipated Rikkai Junior High School, High School, and University joint cultural festival, the Kaihara Festival, has officially concluded!

[Congratulations—You have achieved the achievement 'Star of the Kaihara Festival'!]
The player left with satisfaction and rewards.
After being tossed around all day, the members of the five schools looked at each other, and there was only bitterness in their expressions.
"Hahaha……"
"It doesn't matter. I'm still healthy and alive, which is amazing..."
The more they talked, the more they felt pity for each other. They wiped their faces deeply.
Hyotei and Fudomine still remember the purpose of coming to Rikkai University. It's not just the Umihara Festival, but also the sudden threatening letter.
They looked at each other, considered their words, and confirmed that the cat was not nearby. Kamio Akira even searched through the surrounding trash cans to confirm that there was no cat inside before reluctantly coming back.
Tachibana Yoshihei pondered for a moment and spoke first, "Minister Yukimura, that letter..."
Yukimura's eyebrows suddenly jumped, and the feeling of 'finally here' landed firmly on him.
Atobe Keigo touched the teardrop mole at the corner of his eye and said, "We, Hyotei, have also received it."
Tezuka on Seigaku's side also nodded, "Same as Seigaku."
Shitenboji nodded naturally, "There is also Shitenboji."
After checking the statements, we found out that all four schools present had received threatening letters sent by Jibaimao in a special way.
Especially the phrase 'If you don't come, you will die',
Only the letter from Rikkai University was more like a notification letter than a threatening letter.
Thinking of this... Rikkai people couldn't help but feel a little relieved. He is indeed a junior. This kind of comforting double standard...
As expected, the cat still has Rikkai University in its heart...
Seigaku, Fudomine, Hyotei, and Shitenhoji had just finished their confessions and were about to ask Rikkai University's opinion.
As a result, when I turned around, I saw those guys from Rikkai University lowering their heads, turning their heads away, adjusting their glasses, rubbing their noses... They looked really touched!
No, what's so moving about receiving a threatening letter?!
The other four schools could not empathize with Rikkai University's feeling of being moved when they discovered that their cat actually brought dead mice home.
When they thought of the threatening letter saying "If you don't come, you will die", the people who couldn't stop felt deeply threatened!
If someone else sent this kind of threatening letter, they could think it was a joke, but if it was a nasty cat, it was entirely possible——
After all, that kid can create Guiyun with his bare hands!
Looking at it this way, if I don't go, I'll definitely die. So if I go...
Atobe Keigo was silent, thinking of the former U17 team members who had experienced the dire straits and the life and death. After a while, he slowly said,
“I’ll die over and over again.”
Toyama Kintaro laughed out loud, innocently and kindly. "How can I die over and over again? Don't people only die once?"
“…”
Silence spread between Hyotei and Rikkai University, who had gone through the devilish training of a chicken-breaking cat.
Logically speaking, people only have one life and can only die once.
But if you meet Kei...
Hyotei and Rikkaidai were silent. Their silence undoubtedly fueled the uneasiness in the hearts of Seigaku, Fudomine, and Shitenhoji.
Oishi Shuichiro asked cautiously, "Is there something we don't know about...?"
Rikkai University, led by Yukimura, and Hyotei, led by Atobe, both looked at him slowly and deeply.
At this time, no matter what you say, it seems that it is not as real as actually seeing it with your own eyes and experiencing it in person.
and……
At the same time, Atobe and Yukimura exchanged glances.
A certain common understanding flashed across their eyes.
"No, it's nothing. I don't know... I'll know one day."
"Haha, that's about it—then I won't keep you company. I'll be leaving first!"
Atobe Keigo didn't even look at the other four school members, and turned and left with Oshitari Yuushi, who hadn't figured out the current situation yet, and Kabachi Takahiro, who was as silent as a shadow.
Fudo Peak, Seigaku, and Shitenhoji Temple were left standing there in a daze.
Just kidding - what if these guys don't want to join the U17?
Who knows, by then, Jibaimao might hold them responsible for this!
Atobe Keigo and everyone in Rikkai thought of this at the same time.
Then look at Seigaku, Fudo Peak, and Shitenhoji Temple——
I would rather die than let my friend die, so I’ll sell it for now!
"If there's nothing else, we'll leave first."
Rikkai University said goodbye with a smile, and the whole group started to leave in unison.
Following Hyotei, Rikkai University, which had close ties with the sender of the threatening letter, adopted the same attitude. The three schools noticed something in their actions. Tachibana Yoshihei took a step forward and extended his hand.
"Minister Yukimura—"
Yukimura Seiichi stopped and tilted his head slightly. Although he was smiling, for some reason he seemed to have some pity on his face.
"Everyone, there is no need to ask any more questions. If it is a blessing, it will not be a disaster. If it is a disaster, it cannot be avoided."
"If you really need my advice, I suggest,"
Yukimura Seiichi paused slightly, as if he remembered something.
His expression became a little strange for a moment, but he quickly calmed down and spoke again.
"Before the invitation begins... please do everything you want to do."
“…”
“…”
After the words fell, Rikkai University left without looking back.
"It sounds like a last will," Kamio Akira said slowly.
Ibu Shinji nodded: "...I think so too."
"——Are we going to die?" Kikumaru Eiji was horrified.
As soon as these words came out, everyone's expression turned unhappy.
Oishi Shuichiro quickly added, "No, Eiji, I was just going to play tennis..."
"No one has died playing tennis so far... probably."
He was a little unsure himself after he finished speaking, and turned around after hesitating, "Really?"
Everyone: “…”
——If it’s not something you’re not sure about yourself, why are you asking them?!
