Noticing Laikos and the Queen entering the tent, Beata almost smothered them with kisses, so glad she was that they had actually come, and only the bounds of propriety and the memory of the strongman's love of social distance made her limit herself to a wide smile.
- Guys, so glad to see you! It's great that you came, thank you, thank you!
- Having given a promise, true queens do not break it, - the bikini-clad sorceress explained to the commoner.
- she took a big gulp of the coffee left over from the night.
With music or without music, with a shield or on a shield - but this fucking circus performance is going to happen.
- Well... Do or die. May mother-Anuzish be with us.
👑: Ho-ho-ho! With my involvement this performance has neither a chance nor a right to fail!
- Ladies and gentlemen! Ladies and gentlemen! Mesdames and messieurs! Senores andjuniorssenoritas! Comrades! Welcome to our circus performance, dedicated to the coronation of Her Majesty Empress Naria es Diesra Arual! Hooray!
- First of all, let's get acquainted! My name is Beata, and I am a warrior of the glorious organization "Carnelian", serving Her Majesty with faith and truth! But service to the crown can take many forms. I am not only a skilled crossbowman, ruthlessly striking the enemies of the empire, but also a circus artist! Which means it is within my power to bring not only grief to the enemies of Welfern, but also joy to its inhabitants, that is, to you!
- Woo! That's my student! - draws attention to himself an old acquaintance of the circus girl - Salmon Zimbari. - Give 'em hell! Show them where the dragons winter!
- Now now, let's see what kind of stuff you've made up here, criminal. - came from somewhere below, from where the very short-statured Kreya was standing.
- Not least thanks to him this performance came to be, and even now he is doing his duty as our staff doctor! Applause!
Beata makes a heart shape with her hands, turning in Guillon's direction. He smiles awkwardly.
- Beata! Guillon! - waves Linetta Saturnia Ulysses. - Here we meet again! Good luck!
- Just don't lose your nerve like last time, you cowards! - challenged Tsvetana.
- Guillon, the reputation of the medical profession rests on your shoulders, don't mess it up, - Brescia upped the stakes.
- Among us today are many rising stars and debutants, so don't be stingy with your ovations! And if you feel like throwing a rotten tomato or a spoiled egg at someone, I'm at your service - but hit me first, haha!
- Oh, looks like the performance has already begun! - one of the spectators commented with a laugh.
- And a friendly reminder that it's cold season right now, so please, don't cough on each other! You are allowed to cough on those sitting in front of you, but only if they're blocking your view! - Beata grinned broadly.
The heart-rending scream of the biggest one present amused the guests.
- And also let's welcome our musical accompaniment in the form of...
- ...in the form of the incomparable, talented Arivel, your applause! - Guillon cut in, stunned by his own audacity.
- Applause for Arivel! - Beata clapped her hands, joining in the applause.
- Aha-ha! What a cutie!
