The special seat and front row for today's performance seated by various royalties, nobles and important individuals. The Opera House, on one of the largest, only rivaled by the one at the Empire and the Southern Island, is fully booked. Of course, this isn't surprising considering that the one performing is none other than Miss Vita herself, in fact, many agreed that she is synonymous with the Opera House itself. Despite her reputation, she's still someone who enjoys spending time with us and doesn't really brag about her status.

"Good luck with your opening act. Remember, your impact will make the second act even more powerful, so give it your all!" [Vita]

"YES!" [Diana, Neloufa]

"I can't believe it... It's finally happening! My first big role! I have Madam Eisheth to thank for this" [Rosaria]

"Calm down. Of course, you literally just got the part in less than a month, but your intensive training will surely pay off. Besides, you're talented enough to pull this off in such a short time" [Vita].

"That's understandable, don't worry, you're my minion in this act, so even if you screw up, it wouldn't be too noticeable." 

"HOWEVER, SCREWING UP IS NOT ACCEPTABLE..." [Vita]

"Yes... Yes!" [Rosaria]

Rosaria is the newest addition to the Opera House lineup. She's the succubus who's jealous of the way the demon shells live here, the one who encourages Miss Eisheth afterward. More and more races come on stage. This is also thanks to the manager and Miss Vita. They wanted this stage to be filled with talent regardless of race. It's an admirable thing. Even Auntie Amleth herself supports it, saying that if they manage to gather more talent, she will give her personal fund to further improve the already great opera house. 

With that, after a round of encouragement, sharp at eight in the night, our performance began. The scene began with the narrator describing a kingdom with a loving king and queen, with an always charming and sweet princess, played by Neloufa. On her birthday, various people from different races and organizations are invited, when suddenly, a wicked fairy, feeling left out, arrives.

"I am Maleficent. You had not invited me to the Princess's coming of age, how insolent of you after I have protected this land since its founding" [Maleficent].

(Maleficent... Well, the actor certainly resembles her. I guess Diana must have done her homework. Still, that strong sense of jealousy... That's her, even if she denies it.) [Amleth]

With the appearance of Maleficent, I cast upon time magic. Some to make the broken plate suddenly become as good as new, some to make forks and spoons become metallic. It's a really difficult spell, and I'm sure only Auntie Amleth, with her blessing, can cast it with ease. As for me, I have to use an expensive grimoire and a mana core to do it. Fortunately, the Opera House isn't stingy with its budget. That doesn't mean I'm going to play around with it. It's expensive, after all.

"Our child

"Mother... Father... Somebody please help me..." [Neloufa]

(Neloufa... Why did I feel the urge to help her...) [Adnan]

(She's really doing it! Amazing!) [Kara]

(At this point, she should just be a crew member at the opera house.) [Mara]

(Go Neloufa! And after this is Diana, go surprise us all!) [Marianne]

(They're good! They're really good!) [Tio]

And so the king and queen of the land ask for the help of various others, be it from within or outside their kingdom, when I, a shining knight, enter.

"Fear not, O king and queen of this bountiful land, for I, Prince Diana, will save the pearl of this land" [Diana].

(So that's Diana... I must meet her afterwards! This curse... It's suffocating...) [Ayaka]

(This is the hero's younger sister... Interesting... There is something inside her, I wonder what it is. It's strong... Even stronger than me... Interesting. Very interesting indeed) [Elizabeth]

Huh? THE THING? She looks like... Isn't that Princess Ayaka from the southern island? I remember her from the conference this morning... Anyway, I'll make sure to get THE THING out of her afterwards. She looks very sick indeed, not as sick as Kara and Mara when I first met them, but she's still pale. I can only imagine the pain she's going through. I'm sure Aunt Amleth, Master Merlin, Kara, Mara and the others must have noticed during the conference as well.

Our journey continues as I seek help from various fairies. Since I already know the names and appearances of all the fairies inside me, I tell them that the actress playing them and the makeup team did a great job! From the fire fairy Jasmin to the music fairy Musa. With each of their appearances, I used my blessing to make a great effect. Of course, the audience is thrilled with it, and when it comes to Maleficent's fight

"O evil fairy, see, with the help of other fairies, we will defeat you!" [Diana]

I pull out my Mirage Mana and use it to make the most of Titania's appearance, which captivated the audience. Of course, if it's her Blessing manifestation, it'll be the best, but beggars can't be choosers, so I'll have to make do with this. It's not as spectacular as her first Blessing manifestation, in my opinion, but it got the job done.

"Oh, Prince Charming, thank you for coming to my rescue" [Neloufa].

"Oh, beautiful princess, what I wouldn't do to save a pearl as bright as you" [Diana].

Luckily, Linda isn't here to say "Kiss! Kiss!" like last time. And so our story ended with the narrator telling the audience that the two will marry and have a child, when the next line from the narrator grabs the audience's attention once again

"And so, the first-born princess between the two must find a way to win Maleficent's heart once again, for the greater good." 

(If Maleficent is listening or watching this, she will surely be entertained. I'm sure of it) [Amleth]
