Chapter 351

Auntie, this doesn't look like acting at all!

It's as if you actually have a rebellious family member like that...

In the following episodes, Leon, guided by Hikari, reunites with Losweiser.

But Claudia was not the Only One obstacle in their relationship.

They faced the anger and contempt of two countries, endured a life of hardship and displacement, fell into a witch's trap, and faced life-or-death trials.

Just when she was about to escape to her ideal paradise, on the eve of that wonderful life, the Princess was cursed by a witch and fell into an eternal coma.

No! No!

(Snowflakes are falling, and the north wind is howling)

"Darling, you can't just leave me like this! You can't just leave me like this!"

On stage, Losweiser fell into a "coma" and lay in Leon's arms.

Leon, cradling her head, looked up to the sky and sighed deeply, tears streaming down his face.

Actually, he smeared onion around his eyes before going on stage, otherwise he would have easily burst out laughing.

The thought of the Dragon Queen falling into a coma made him overjoyed (because he could dress her up as black silk bunny girl and take a bunch of pictures, hehe).

Although I was quite happy inside, the performance was still very infectious.

Many of the baby dragons in the audience began to worry about whether the beautiful Princess would be able to wake up.

The plot continues to unfold.

After the Princess falls into a coma, the knight, played by Leon, travels the world in an effort to find a way to wake her up.

This matter soon came to the attention of both countries.

The Princess's coma is no trivial matter.

However, due to the years of fighting between the two sides, neither side was willing to be the first to stop and make a statement.

In the end, it was the knight's unwavering love for the Princess that moved them.

The knight was no longer fighting the world alone; for the first time, he had people supporting him.

In the final scene, the knight finally finds a way to awaken the Princess.

They reunite on the beach at sunset, echoing the title of the play, "As Love Sinks".

Leon held Losweiser in his arms, patiently waiting for her to wake up.

The stage lighting created a sunset atmosphere, ambiguous and soft.

Meanwhile, backstage on one side of the stage, Helena walked over to Noa.

"The curtain is about to fall, and we did it, Noa."

Noa nodded. "Yes, we... did it."

"Oh right, Mom initially asked me to revise that last line of dialogue—"

"Don't worry, my Daddy said he had already thought of the most suitable lines before I went on stage."

The little Sea Dragon girl's eyes lit up. "Really?"

"Yeah, really. I don't know what lines he'll say, but... I believe him."

On the stage, Losweiser slowly awoke.

The male and female protagonists looked into each other's eyes, and the light of the 'sunset' reflected in their pupils.

Ambiguity, like silk threads, ripples in their eyes, impossible to sever or unravel.

"You're finally awake," Leon said softly.

Losweiser also got a little into character.

She gazed into Leon's deep black eyes and softly replied, "Mmm..."

In the script, the Princess's response is followed by the last line of the entire play.

That line that Helena revised many times but could not be satisfied with.

Losweiser was also curious about what Leon would say.

Is it a simple yet formal enough "I've been waiting for you"?

Or is it a long but romantic "short essay of a few hundred words"?

Or perhaps...

Losweiser couldn't guess.

Because this man always manages to surprise her.

"Losweiser".

This isn't the female lead's name in the show, but Leon insists on saying it out loud at this moment.

Of course, Leon's capriciousness was also within limits; only the couple on stage could hear him call out "Losweiser."

Losweiser looked at him with slight surprise. This idiot actually... called her by her real name... what was he trying to do?

"Losweiser ..."

He met Losweiser's gaze and, under the watchful eyes of hundreds of people, slowly began to speak.

"I love you."

As evening approached, all the theatrical performances came to an end.

Now it's time for the actual scoring and selection process.

The junior directors and screenwriters from each group came up on stage together, a total of five groups, lined up in a row.

The judges, specially invited by the Sky City Top Drama Troupe, slowly walked onto the stage and stood in front of the young dragons.

Meanwhile, Leon's family and Claudia were also sitting in the audience, anxiously awaiting the announcement of the final rankings.

To be honest, Leon wasn't very confident about the outcome of this competition either.

In the past, the championships and first place titles were all won through his or Noa's top individual abilities. And this father and daughter happen to be quite confident in their abilities, so they naturally don't feel nervous when waiting for the results.

The drama competition was not only a type of event that Noa had never experienced before, but it was also a first-time experience for Leon.

There are many factors to consider when judging the quality of a play. Leon is not an expert, so he doesn't know how he and the others performed on stage.

Everything depends on that guest teacher from the professional drama troupe.

He breathed a sigh of relief, tried to calm his nerves, and then turned to look at Losweiser beside him.

Her Your Majesty the Queen was looking straight ahead, her beautiful, aloof face expressionless as always.

However, Leon still noticed something amiss.

Her expressionless face now doesn't seem like she's aloof; it's more like she's... daydreaming.

Upon closer inspection, one can even detect a slight blush on her cheeks.

"Hello."

Leon called her name.

But Losweiser didn't react.

"Hey, what are you thinking about?"

As he asked the question, Leon gently nudged her shoulder.

Losweiser then came to her senses. "Huh? Ah... no, it's nothing."

"Really nothing?"

"It's really nothing. I'm just... just a little nervous, um, a little nervous."

Losweiser pursed her lips, raised her hand to smooth her hair, and then looked up at the stage.

Leon looked at her profile and knew that she wasn't actually as nervous as she claimed.

He had seen Losweiser when she was truly nervous; she would force herself to calm down, and that kind of contradiction couldn't be faked.

But right now, she's clearly distracted by something else.

Seemingly noticing Leon's scrutinizing gaze, Losweiser glanced at him sideways and pursed her lips.

Hmph, do you expect this Queen, to tell you the truth?

Are you saying I'm still replaying your last line on stage?

This kind of thing should be kept to this Queen, and no one should know about it!

Even though she noticed Leon's scrutiny, Losweiser decided to play dumb this time.

Anyway, that scoundrel is very polite; he won't pry into things that others don't want to talk about.

As expected, after suppressing Losweiser with his eyes for a few seconds and seeing that she was determined to play dumb to the end, Leon stopped worrying about it.

The most important thing right now is my precious daughter's ranking.

"Everyone performed exceptionally well today. Each group had its own unique strengths, which was fantastic!"

The judge waved the envelope in his hand and continued,

"And the scores for everyone's performances are all out, they're in this envelope."

"Okay, we'll start announcing the results from fifth place upwards. Get ready, everyone!"

After saying that, the judges slowly opened the envelope.

To create a more tense and exciting atmosphere, and to better engage the young dragons, the judges used a series of fluid, vivid, but slightly affected facial expressions—

First came surprise, then excitement, and finally, "This makes perfect sense."

Noa raised an eyebrow slightly and said in a low voice, "No wonder she's a professional stage actress."

Helena covered her mouth and chuckled, "Do you know what I like most about you, Noa?"

"Which point?"

"Whenever you meet someone outstanding, you never hesitate to praise them."

Noa smiled and said, "Praise is like labeling someone, and then you keep working towards that label."

Helena tilted her head and asked with interest, "So, who is the person you've tagged the most?"

Without hesitation, Noa replied, "My dad."

The two best friends smiled at each other, then stopped chatting and quietly waited for the judges to announce the results.

"Fifth place is—"

The judges deliberately dragged out the last syllable, their gaze sweeping back and forth over the young dragons in the audience.

It made everyone tense.

"Congratulations to Angela and her little film crew!"

Angela, who came in fifth place, and her junior screenwriter looked at each other and smiled, their smiles tinged with bitterness and helplessness.

Although their rankings weren't high, the five production teams that made it to the official performance had all gone through rigorous selection processes.

Therefore, on this stage where masters gather, even if the ranking is not ideal, it is still an excellent work that has been built upon countless rejected scripts.

It's a real shame.

Everyone applauded Angela and her screenwriter.

"Next up is fourth place in this competition~~"

"..."

After two consecutive announcements, the final champion and runner-up will be decided.

Noah Helena and another group of students remained on the field.

The other person was usually among the top students, which put a lot of pressure on Noa.

During the main competition, they won continuous cheers from the audience.
