ACT.3
BGM8 BGM【のどかな農村】
Gozuryu, who kept his promise to Benten and started working for the villagers,was banished from the dragon clan for doing good deeds.
But he was happy to have the beautiful Benten as his wife.
However, the villagers were surprised when Gozuryu suddenly started working for them.
After a while, the villagers realized that they no longer had to make annual sacrifices and smiles returned to the villagers for the first time in decades.
The villagers were delighted, and their happy days continued.
However, they didn't realize that there was a secret shadow creeping into their happiness.
BGM fade away.
BGM9【桜舞う春 うららかな日々】
The two of them consult and work busy for the villagers.
"Better like this." " I see. I'm coming."
Disappear to the stage left and come back.
Repeat it several times.
Finally, Benten moved little by little to the stage lift worried about Gozuryu coming home late.
He's late, isn't he? "What's wrong?"
Suddenly, Gozuryu jumps in from the stage left.
“Wow, you are late. aren't you?"
"Sorry,sorry"
BGM fade away.
In a certain year, not a single drop of rain fell from early spring, and summer continued with drought.
The fields were dried up, and the villagers feared that a terrible famine would break out.
Gozuryu and Benten, center stage.
"Hey honey, the villagers seem to be in trouble because the fields have dried up due to the recent drought."
"Yeah, that's right. In the village, they call monks to pray for rain, but it doesn't seem to have any effect.
"Umu, I don't see thunder gods making rain around here.
I don't think it will rain for the time being."
"Oh! terrible. Can you help them?
"OK. I'll make it rain"
Gozuryu, exit to the stage left .
BGM【雷雨】
I'm back now. "I made it rain."
"Yes, the villagers are very happy.
Oh,your complexion is not good."
"Don't worry. It's okay"
"Hey honey, this year's grain has grown very well.
But the eyes of the typhoon are staring at us with a nasty look.
If he comes,crops will go to waste.
Anyway, let's bounce him off for the villagers."
Gozuryu exits to the stage left.
I'm back now. "I bounced back the typhoon."
"Yes, the villagers are already very happy. you have done good.
By the way, you look very tired.
You should get a good night's sleep tonight"
"Well, let's get some rest tonight."
They exit to the stage right.
One day, there was a big earthquake across the far sea, and the tsunami hit the villages around here one after another.
Among them, a particularly high and large tsunami was approaching this village moment by moment.
BGM【SeaStorm】
"Look at that horizontal line. A huge tsunami is coming towards us."
"If it hits directly, the village will be annihilated.
"I will stop the tsunami. "I'm coming."
The edge of a cliff with a view of the sea, or the coast.
Gozuryu rushes in from the stage right, and Benten follows behind.
While watching the stage left,
After saying, "I will stop the tsunami.---," he looks back at Benten.
Benten nodded anxiously.
Gozuryu runs to the stage left.
The BGM rises and eventually calms down.
"I'm back now. " He looked terribly exhausted.
"Oh my god. You look very exhausted and unwell.
"What's wrong with you?"
BGM【逃避行】
"Honey, I am a dragon.
If a dragon does bad things, it will get better and live longer.
Conversely, if I do good deeds, I will lose power and eventually disappear.
That's the way it is."
"Well, I didn't know a bit about it."
"I didn't understand a bit of it."
"Without knowing it, I was shortening your life."
"How should we live from now on?"
"Honey, my wife, I fell in love with you and made you my wife."
"How can I do bad things like I used to be?"
"Until the end of my life, let's support each other and live peacefully together."
"That's what I want."
Benten snuggled up to Gozuryu.
After a while, they disappear under the stage.
BGM fade away.
In this way, the two spent peaceful days caring for each other, even though they were frightened by the premonition of the end.
Time passed, and eventually Gozuryu's body was feeble little by little.
