291 Later. Wedding Edition Blessings From The People
"This is... awesome..."
I lose my voice to the view from the terrace. It's our wedding day in Nanol, but it's a limited number of people covering the city.
Some parts of the royal palace are also open for general use so that you can see us, and from there we can come near the terrace, but there are so many that if the soldiers don't hold them down, they're going to overflow.
The boulevards outside the royal palace are also well lined with stalls and quite a few people come and go. Looks like they're gathering to see us at first sight from all over the country.
Participants in this wedding will be Alexia, Helen, Aeris, Merlin, Firia and Krona. Everyone should be dressed to get ready for today in the morning. I'm done with the guy, though.
"This day is finally here."
"... Sire Nanol. And the Chancellor, and Father."
As I watched the view from the terrace, the door opened and His Majesty Nanol came inside. They probably kicked him out of Alexia's room. It's forbidden for boys over there.
His Majesty Nanol, who came straight in, sits on the couch in his room. I said I'd sit across the street too.
"Has it been nine years since you met Ray"
His Majesty Nanol groans smudgingly. Nine years? That must have come to Wang Du for a report on the Great March on the Runwalker Territory. We had Marina's birthday just that time of year, so we were all supposed to go.
"That's when Alexia you met applied to your father for a duel."
"Oh, you did. But you let him stay ray?
You made Alexia's opponent do it to me because Zeke doesn't like to fight. Now I think if I hadn't done that, I wouldn't have been my fiancée this way.
Alexia liked me because of that fight, and I was interested in Alexia, too. I wonder if Helen met him then, too. I miss it.
"I'll never forget Helen making a scene with a strange boy."
The Chancellor says that with a laugh. Did Helen say that? Somehow, it's embarrassing to hear that from someone other than yourself.
Then again, when you're blooming in the old story, you hear a knock on the door. In reply, this royal maid comes into the room and asks me to come because Alexia and the others are ready.
They must all be so beautiful. I follow the samurai excitedly. Behind it comes His Majesty the Nanol.
And when I reached the room that everyone was there, the female knights were guarding the entrance with gutter. The samurai knocks and opens the door, so I go on, but His Majesty the Nanol, who was attached behind me, was stopped by the female knights.
"From here onwards it is only Master Ravelt"
"Hey, why!? I'd like to see my daughter's bride, too!
"It will be after Lady Ravelt has seen it."
And His Majesty the Nanol gave up on the female knights who didn't try to get through at all.
I go straight into the room, even though I care about your majesty. Inside, it's divided by curtains, and I can't see the other fiancées.
"Master Ray is here."
"Yes, Ray, wait a minute."
When the samurai informs me of my arrival, I hear Alexia from across the curtain. At the same time, the sound of the curtain opening. I guess Alexia and the others were blocked by curtains, too.
And one of the samurai comes out the back of the curtain. You're the samurai who was helping you dress. She pulls the curtain sassy away. And I'm stuck in the way Alexia and the others showed up... just like when Ferris and the others did, me.
Everyone wears makeup and colorful and very beautiful dresses. Alexia wears a yellow dress with an open shoulder. Aeris is a bright red dress. Helen is an orange dress, and Merlin is a green dress. Krona wears black dresses and Phyllia wears each of the watery dresses.
"Heh, isn't that weird?
"Terrible. They're all so beautiful. I want to brag about everyone right now."
When I say that, I dye my face red. But I'm not lying. I really think so. As I thought when Ferris and I were together, they were really a waste of my fiancées.
Each one of them shares their thoughts with everyone who asks if they look like themselves, and Allen and Elene, who congratulate them through the door, come in.
"Wow, the moms are beautiful!
"Mom, beautiful!
"Heh, thanks, Allen."
"Thank you too, Elena."
"I want to be cool like my moms too!
... Immananteitta? Elenegake Kondato? Docono d 'Aleda, Boquete! Zettani yursaneezo!
"Come on, Ray, you're killing me weird."
If I'm crazy about Elene's word, Merlin smacks Tin and my head in. Ha! Was I even dreaming right now? Something like I heard disturbing words from Elene's mouth.
I'm just cackling with the Aeris and the others when I look at Elene. Was it your fault?
"Ladies and gentlemen, it's time"
Whoa, is that already the time? I have to take a day to get around Wangdu today, so it's just about the right time. Apparently, the royal family of Nanol takes an oath between the thrones and then goes around the boulevard of the king's capital to report to the people that he's married.
We walk to the throne room. Alexia's on my right, Helen's on my left, in turn. It's the shape of the aeris following behind it.
Then I take an oath. You don't have to take an oath now to make everyone happy. Absolutely.
When you take an oath against all of them, now it's a report to the people. A non-roofed carriage stops inside the royal palace and takes that carriage around the king's capital.
All I hear is cheer from around. Sometimes, kiss me! And hug each other! Like, I can hear the guys jerking off, so I did it in front of everyone.
I can't believe Alexia and Helen did it in front of everyone! And, pumping anger, the men who flew the goats were weeping blood, and the women were yellow cheering with Ca.
Alexia, Helen, I'm not letting you go anymore.
"Yes, of course."
"Naturally!
I'd also like to tell the Aerys, but now I'll just tell Alexia and Helen next door. We swore to each other, blessed by the people.
