Priest
Thank you for today. My, it's been quite a while since we've set up a stage-I hope there were no issues with our preparations?

Hatsumi
No, thank you for your courteous handling. We're grateful for the arrangements.

Nikako
Ah, Ren-san!

Daikoku
My Lord, preparations are complete!

Hatsumi
I see, understood!

Hatsumi
Then, if you'll excuse me...

Hatsumi
Everyone, are you ready?

Shigure
Of course! Shigure's performance will draw everyone's attention here!

Iruru
The props are fine too, so we just need to show the results of our daily practice.

Nikako
That's right, Irurun! I'm a bit nervous, but...I'm looking forward to it!

Daikoku
I'll deliver the magnificence of my Lord's stage even to audiences unfamiliar with theatre...!

Hatsumi
Yes, that's the spirit. Even though the place has changed, Eden's stage remains the same.

Hatsumi
This is the first step towards traveling theatre. Give it your all, everyone!

Everyone
Yes!!!

Audience Member A
A traveling performance-that's unusual, right~? Eden is really creative. I thought so even at the last performance I saw~.

Audience Member B
Toneri Nikako as Amaterasu, Karasumori Daikoku as Ogetsuhime...Susanoo's life story depicted by Eden...this performance can't be missed.

Audience Member C
'Susanoo no Mikoto', I wonder what kind of stage it'll be~. Oh, it's starting!

Nikako
“I have already heard of your deeds...”

Nikako
“You say you seek a place to belong, but isn't your true intention to seize this Takamagahara?”

Nikako
“Ah, if so, how terrifying...”

Hatsumi
“It's a misunderstanding, sister...! How can I make you understand...!? I know...! Then I'll make an oath for you...!!! ”

Hatsumi
“What is this...you expect me to eat such a thing!? Even if I'm starving, I won't abandon my pride!!”

Daikoku
“Ah, Susanoo-sama...I didn't mean it like that...! I'm sorry, I'm sorry!”

Iruru
“You...are...”

Hatsumi
“So you're Kushinada. Your parents asked me. Please trust me and wait.”

Shigure
“I thought it was just the shrine maiden, but another meal has arrived...become sustenance for my belly!!!”

Hatsumi
“Haaah!!!”

Shigure
“What, what is that divine energy!? It's like...the child of a god...!? ...What are you doing, dancing!?”

Iruru
“Unknown one, I trust you and entrust you with my divine energy. So please, defeat the wild god!”

Hatsumi
“Yes! I swear upon my sword, Ame-no-Habakiri!!!”

Audience Member A
Amazing, what intensity...! Susanoo is racing around in all directions as if he's right there...!!!

Audience Member B
To adapt Susanoo's life story to the stage like this...Troupe Eden, I didn't know they were such a highly skilled troupe...!

Audience Member C
We can see acting this high quality here...!? Eden really is amazing...

Priest
What wonderful acting. To be able to dedicate such a stage...!

Nikako
Good work! It was a great stage, Da-chan! Da-chan?

Daikoku
I know it's unavoidable given the role, but...ugh, next time I'll capture my Lord's stomach for sure...!

Shigure
If you did that, wouldn't it break the character~? The stage would fall apart, so please don't~.

Daikoku
I know that!

Daikoku
Ugh...but I'm jealous of Iruru-san...!

Iruru
Ahaha, but Shigure and Daikoku both gave great performances too. Nikako completely embodied Amaterasu too!

Nikako
Ehehe, it's thanks to Irurun's advice!

Daikoku
Still, actually doing it outside was this exhausting...

Shigure
Shigure is fine! I'm fine, but...I'll take a little break~...

Daikoku
You're completely worn out too.

Nikako
It's true, since it was a different environment from our usual theatre, a lot of things were different. I wonder if it'll be like this when we perform on Aogashima too~?

Iruru
It'll be even harder then~? We'll have to transport equipment by plane!

Nikako
That's true...!!! I need to build up more stamina!!!

Hatsumi
Iruru's right. Depending on the location, it could be even harder than this time.

Shigure
Hatsumi-san!

Hatsumi
That's precisely why this time was only the first step. Everyone, keep that in mind.

Nikako and Daikoku
Yes!/Yes, my Lord!

Iruru
Right~, we'll have to do rehearsals assuming outdoor stages on a regular basis.

Shigure
Well, even if the methods change, Shigure can handle it easily~.

Daikoku
Baah...really, such a cocky brat...well, I agree it's rewarding though...!

Nikako
Yeah! Let's all work hard together!

Hatsumi
Yes, let's create even better stages than this time. Now then, I've reserved a restaurant for the after party. Make sure to clean up properly!

Everyone
Yes!!!
