chapter 132
132 – Conclusion (2)
The ceremony that I thought would end quickly took longer than expected.
Not only did boredom spread across the guests’ faces, but even Anastasia, one of the main characters of the day, was on the verge of yawning while covering her mouth.
“…… Sorry. I guess I called you for no reason…….”
Sylvia, who caused this situation, whispered with a face that looked like she was dying of regret.
The problem is that she invited Alessia to be her officiant.
As the saint’s faithful guardian, and as Sylvia’s old friend, I understand her desire to bless Sylvia’s future, but she went too far.
“Even if harsh winds and strong waves block their path in the future, I will take a moment to pray in the hope that the Heavenly God who looks down from heaven will brighten their path.”
Now that we were talking about having a prayer time that we hadn’t even discussed before, I started to wonder if this guy was trying to ruin the ceremony.
The heart for the bride and groom is admirable, but now it is time to put it in moderation.
“Alessia, do it in moderation.”
Adele ventriloquized Alessia with her mouth shut.
“It seems like 30 minutes have already passed. “How long is she planning to keep the saintess standing there?”
“Ah.”
Alessia took a deep breath as if she realized what Adele said.
She anxiously looked at Sylvia, who had been living in a wheelchair due to her weak body, and abbreviated her prayer on her own.
“…… “I hereby announce the marriage of Adele Heitz, Charlotte Echo, Anastasia Aris, Tina, Lucy Belmail, and Sylvia.”
“… ….”
But now it has been omitted too much.
Well, if you think about what she said so far, it doesn’t have anything to do with her since she includes all the intermediate processes, but she was truly a person with no middle ground.
* * *
“You’ve been following the master since you were young, and you ended up getting married!”
These were the words of a woman who had once been trampled by Charlotte.
I don’t remember her name, but she said she helped Charlotte train when she was young.
Anyway, the maids continued to say that they knew this would happen, starting with him.
“Every day, I woke up early in the morning, dressed up, and made an effort to impress the master, but it paid off.”
“That’s right.”
Charlotte’s face turned red as she continued to testify.
I was just flattered by the fact that new stories were coming out wave after wave, but Charlotte, her partner, seemed embarrassed by such conversations.
“Stop it…” ….”
“Look at this guy. Is this the same Charlotte who always treated me harshly? Do you know how to make that kind of expression in front of the master?”
Charlotte’s brow furrowed.
And then, since today was a special day, she put her fist into the solar plexus of the man who was making fun of her, ignoring her wish that it would pass without incident.
“Wow… ….”
The man fell on the spot, clutching her chest.
She lost her mind in just one hit.
At that sight, the maids who were Charlotte’s senior noticed her and pursed her lips, and only then did the surroundings become quiet.
“Master, I will take care of this. Master is looking around comfortably.”
“…… “I will do that.”
I raised my head and looked around.
Most of the guests were Charlotte’s acquaintances, Lucy’s relatives and friends, or people sent from the Holy Kingdom for Sylvia.
I thought it would be better to take care of Anastasia and Tina, who had no family or friends to call, so I approached the two who were alone.
“Anastasia.”
Anastasia, who had been sitting on a chair and staring at the guests, raised her head.
As she sat across from me, I pushed her the drink she had brought with her, and she emptied it quickly, probably because she was thirsty.
“What was she thinking?”
“Thinking of family.”
I looked at Anastasia’s expression for a moment, but contrary to my concerns, she seemed to be fine.
“I thought she would have been happy if her dad, mom, and brother had seen this.”
Was it so?
Wouldn’t she have been confused when she saw that there were five brides?
Just as Lucy’s parents held her back and cried.
When I said that as a joke, Anastasia shook her head.
“Do you remember what you told me?”
“I don’t know what you’re talking about.”
“You said you wouldn’t leave me alone.”
It was definitely something I remembered.
After Anastasia fell for the whispers of her demons, he was comforting her when she said she hated being alone.
“Her family grew because there were more brides. So, I am further away from being alone.”
“You might think so.”
Some may worry that the love coming to them will decrease, but Anastasia seems to think that her love has increased because she has more people to share with.
That innocent look was like Anastasia and she burst into laughter.
“I’m glad you think so.”
“But when I think about it, my family grows again when I have children.”
Anastasia’s words were spoken as if her consciousness was flowing.
Anastasia said casually.
“I think a child will have the happiness that only a child can give. Anyway, I wanted it.”
“Pugh…” … !”
Tina, who was quietly listening to the conversation next to Anastasia, spat out those words so callously that she sipped her drink.
Tina wiped her mouth with her handkerchief and naturally joined the conversation.
“The stream of consciousness is ridiculous. Does she even know how to have children? “I don’t think you know.”
Anastasia nodded her head as if asking something so obvious, moving her index finger back and forth between her curled fingers.
“Yes. “It’s s*x.”
Same expression as usual and tone of voice without any elevation.
It was Anastasia who spoke so calmly.
“But can children be born between a beastman and a human?”
“Why are you asking that while looking at Tina?”
“I do it without contraception every time, but I don’t feel like I’m pregnant yet.”
“…… Whoop…… !”
Tina, who had been drinking her drink through a straw, squirted her drink again.
She coughed a few times and it seemed like she didn’t want to answer, but Tina gave me a look, but honestly, I was also curious about that part.
“It’s a reasonable question. “I’m curious too.”
“No, shouldn’t you be wondering how you know that?”
“That’s true too.”
Turning her gaze, she gave Anastasia a look.
Anastasia answered on her own.
“I happened to see something going on in the moonlit garden through the window. “At that time, she was in the position that Adele was holding Tina in, so I could see her copulatory area clearly.”
“… ….”
The drink flowed from Tina’s mouth and flowed back into the bottle.
Her face turned red from embarrassment and her eyes seemed lost.
The guy pointed a point at me and shouted.
“Well, didn’t Tina tell you not to do it outside? “What if other people saw it too?”
“For that matter, you look like you’re enjoying it.”
“What nonsense!”
Tina, with half-moon eyes, pinched Anastasia’s side with her hand.
Anastasia resisted, fluttering as if she were a balloon doll.
It seemed like Tina’s bullying would continue for a while, so she slowly got up and this time she walked towards Lucy.
She is a man who stands out on the way and has the feeling of attracting attention.
She was Kyle, gulping down wine like water, as if she couldn’t keep her sanity.
As she was looking at the back of his head, Kyle must have noticed my gaze and turned her head to look behind her.
“… ….”
“… ….”
Our eyes met, but neither of us said anything.
No matter what I say, it will sound like deception and will not comfort him.
As I was contemplating what to say and choosing my words, Kyle opened her mouth first with a bitter smile.
“There was no smile on Lucy’s face all day.”
Contrary to my worries, it didn’t look like he was going to run away, so I sat down on the chair across from him.
He didn’t pay any attention and continued talking.
“I’ve never seen Lucy smile like that. He seemed really happy. “It seems like he likes you that much.”
I just nodded.
“You’ll do it yourself without me having to tell you, but…” … Be nice to Lucy. “I hope you continue to make me happy like you are now.”
“You don’t have to worry about that.”
Lucy was walking from afar, as if she had seen him talking to Kyle.
At first, she looked a little worried, but soon she naturally joined in with her face straight, as if she had confirmed that they were just having a normal conversation without any problems.
“What? “What were you two talking about?”
“Your childhood friend wants you to be nice to him.”
“You sound just like my mom and dad. “They already take care of it.”
“Yes… ….”
Kyle smiled and nodded her head.
She then pointed over Lucy’s shoulder.
“Shouldn’t you go to your parents too? “I’m done talking to Adele, so go.”
“Really? Hey, let’s go. “My dad is going to kill you.”
“…… “That’s a bit difficult.”
Lucy lifted me up with her arms crossed, gave Kyle a wave of her hand, and dragged me towards her parents.
Feeling worried about Kyle being left alone, she glanced back, and all she could see was his back as if he was about to leave.
