The play, Leon and Julia, which had been on the verge of cancellation, resumed with me stepping into the role of Julia.
If I had to summarize the story, it was at least 80% similar to Romeo and Juliet. Although, considering the audience was mainly aristocrats and academy students, a few changes had been made, especially regarding the ending.
Originally, this play had nothing to do with me, and I could have ignored it, but Penelope's sincere love for one man stirred something within me. The intensity of her feelings struck a chord, something I hadnât seen from any extras in the original game.
âAnd then there was⦠Princess Rainey.â
Boâs injury wasnât part of the original game, which made me suspect that Lydia or Princess Raineyâs presence triggered this event. If that was the case, Princess Rainey was likely feeling a certain level of guilt. Just because her expression didnât change much or she didnât speak often didnât mean she lacked emotions.
As I mentioned before, it wouldnât hurt to build some rapport with Princess Rainey. Even though she would only be at the academy for about a year after her curse was lifted, that was enough time to benefit from her luck.
âMaybe the wealth Rizy spoke of in her fortune is connected to becoming closer with Princess Rainey.â
While I didnât fully believe Rizyâs fortune, she had gained witch powers, so there was likely some truth to it.
In any case, all these factors led me to take over the role of Julia. Of course, with me in the role, Ethan had no choice but to step in as Leon. Not that I mindedâlike Penelope, I couldnât imagine pretending to be in love with anyone other than Ethan.
