Chapter 448 The Wedding March, and the Groom and Brides’ Entrances.

This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml

"How is it? Don’t I look strange?"

"You look really good!”

"Un. Yeah, it looks good on you. "

"You will finally become a man!"

I feel a little embarrassed when I receive the words of Kohaku, Kokuyou, and Sango. In their sights, I was in front of them wearing a pure white jacket with a black tie, which was made for this day.

It feels strange. The buttonhole on the collar of the jacket is decorated with a white rose as a boutonniere. I don't think it suits me at all, but it's allowed for this situation which is a once in a lifetime thing.

"Oh … I'm really nervous."

"Even this master of ours can become nervous. Interesting."

"That's right. After all, it is a big event in my life."

Luli rudely remarked casually, to which I responded quickly.

Hmm … To tell the truth, shouldn't we just skip the ceremony and send a postcard saying "We got married"? It certainly would be easier.

However, since the wedding is of the king of a nation, that is not allowed, and there is also my desire to see everyone's once-in-a-lifetime appearance. I want to give them the feelings of what you only get in a great wedding.

I am not allowed to escape. It would be a blessing if I didn’t have to do this so publicly.

Weddings in this world are mostly parties with both families attending. People don't often make an oath to God. It seems that they sometimes make one to the spirits, though.

I can make an oath to God (the World God), but the god I follow will inevitably be the same as the god of the Ramish religion. Depending on how you think about it, Brunhild could be talked about under the umbrella of the Ramissh Theocracy, so I didn’t want to do it.

Instead, I am supposed to call the Great Spirits to become witnesses. However, I'm the Spirit King who rules over all spirits, so I really shouldn’t pray to my subordinates … well, I don't think I need to think so deeply.

The door was knocked, and the butler Liam came in.

"Your Majesty, Shinnosuke-sama came with some guests."

"Oh, please let them through."

Led in by Liam-san, several people enter the room following the World God. Are they the gods descending to our wedding that the World God talked about yesterday?

Is that my family crest on the World God’s clothes? He is wearing a kimono, so it looks great. Moreover, the Mochizuki family crest is also on there. Why is he wearing it? No, it's natural because he’s playing the role of my grandfather.

When Liam went out of the room with a bow, the World God squinted at me.

"Hohoho, the clothes look great on you. They look perfect, and you didn’t make a mistake choosing those clothes."

"I'm feeling a little bit uncomfortable."

I really think that these clothes aren’t really comfortable. However, I don't feel bad when being complimented.

"I'll introduce everyone for the time being. The gods that came down are the … The Dance God, Strength God, Craft God, Glasses God, Theater God, Mermaid God, Wandering God, Flower God, and the Jewel God. Today, they will be attending your wedding."

"Hello. I am Mochizuki Touya. Thank you for coming to the wedding today."

We exchange greetings one by one after the introduction of the World God. I got a list of gods who were coming down, but when I looked over again, there are too many gods to greet. What does the God of Glasses look over? No, I guess he's the god of glasses. He’s wearing glasses.

They all look like they are dressed up to attend the party. Only the God of Strength seems to be the odd one out. He tore off some of the parts of his clothes because they were a bit too fluffy. His muscles are still magnificent.

Of the ten (?) Gods, the Dance God, the Flower God, and the Jewel God were goddesses. Of course, the rest were gods, but only the Theater God is … in the middle. He’s similar to Sango.

Although he seems to be quite handsome and popular, he speaks in a female tone with a strange twist. I shouldn’t dig into the information…

"When the wedding is over, they'll be looking around this world as they please. Rest assured that I’ve told them to refrain from annoying you, Touya."

I wanted you to say "they will never" instead of "refrain" there. But, if they didn’t learn the common sense of this world to some extent, they wouldn’t be allowed to go down to the mortal realm, so I don't think they won’t be eccentrics.

"Then we're done with this. Do your best.”

"Oh, yes. Thank you."

Perhaps because they didn’t want to bother me, the gods withdrew just after greeting me. To be honest, it’s hard to remember who was who even if only ten people were introduced. I remember that the God of Strength and the God of Theater had an impact, though.

However, it's a little strange that there are nearly 20 gods at the venue …

Just as I sighed, Swooper and Jonathan returned from the open window.

"Welcome back. How was it?"

"Yes. The invited guests have already gathered one after another. There seems to be no problem. "

I had Jonathan go to see what the ceremony was like. The ceremonial hall is not inside of the castle, but the place where the courtyard is partially renovated is the stage of our wedding ceremony. In other words, it's a garden wedding.

This happened because people couldn't fit into the audience room in the castle, and because it seems that it is customary to have a wedding ceremony outside in this world.

The courtyard, which will be the ceremonial hall, is a venue created by Cesca, who manages Babylon's "Garden," and Julio-san, the gardener. The mediocre courtyard has been reborn as a beautiful garden with a variety of flowers blooming, creating a gorgeous atmosphere.

I usually wouldn’t think this, but that erotic maid has such a talent. It may be natural because she is the manager of the "Garden", but…… I don't understand. That doya face when it was completed was particularly annoying. …… Well, thank you for the time being.

Only today, all the Babylon Sisters have come down to enter the venue. Of course, Professor Babylon, Elka, and Fenrir have as well.

From Dracliff Island to the Silver DragonSilverShiroganeRuby, Safa, and Emera of Maid Golem also came and are working under Butler Lime.

After all, there is not enough manpower. Some of the members of the knights, mainly women, are working at the venue as temporary maids. Of course, their next paychecks will have a bonus. I three girls under Tsubaki-san are also working as maids today.

I heard a knock on the door.

After replying to it, Liam-san opens the door again and comes in.

"Your Majesty, it's time."

"……Yes, I understand"

Alright, let's go! I try to slap my cheeks with both hands to get enthusiastic, but I hold back just in time. Weird rumors can come up if the groom has slap marks on his cheeks…… Dangerous, dangerous!

I take a deep breath and exhale slowly. When I was calm, I started walking with Kohaku and the others behind Liam-san. …… It's hard to walk.

"Master, your right hand and right foot are out at the same time. "

"Ah!"

I stopped involuntarily at the words from Kohaku. If I hadn’t been told that… Dangerous! Why can’t I be calm at all?!

"I feel much more nervous than I expected to."

"Everyone is like that. His Majesty the King of Belfast was also nervous at his wedding and drank water many times before entering the venue."

"He was?"

"That made him go to the toilet a lot after the final vows, and I had to put up with it. Thanks to that, I can't remember what the congratulations said."

Well, Liam-san was originally the caretaker of His Majesty King Belfast. So he remembers the wedding?

But even that king was nervous about the wedding. Though just a little, I feel some more familitary with him now.

"His Majesty King Belfast often told his story in front of his vassals and always said that if you were too nervous, you would be too awkward. At all times, relax your shoulders and stay natural. Doing that, you can handle any situation.

Be natural? …… Because it's a special ceremony, I thought that I had to show myself differently than usual. I can just act just like usual, because I’m not someone different even if it is a special occasion. Yup.

"Have you released some of your tension?"

"Yes. I’m sorry for having had to take your help."

"No, all I talked about is a memory of the elderly."

Liam-san starts walking again. Certainly, I feel better than before. I’m okay. ……I think.

Eventually, I came to the front of the door leading to the garden wedding venue built in the courtyard. There are the vice-captains of the knights, Nikola-san and Norn-san, on both sides to open the door. Both of them are not wearing armor today, but dressed up for the celebration.

Outside the door, music began to play from the speakers installed by Professor Babylon. There is no such thing as an orchestra in the castle.

Of course, the songs are the classics, composed by Mendelssohn, the "Wedding March". Some of the "Wedding Marches”are by Wagner, but I'm a Mendelssohn fan. The trumpet fanfare is gorgeous, and the bouncy rhythm lifts the mood.

Besides, Wagner originally made the “Bridal Chorus” for his opera “Lohengrin”, which’s story ends with a tragedy. Mendelssohn’s “Wedding March” is based on Shakespeare's work "A Midsummer Night's Dream", but this story had a happy ending.

I don’t want to do Wagner’s song because it isn’t lucky, and I want a happy ending.

At the same time as the fanfare reached its climax, the two vice-captains opened the door.

All of the invited guests, who were lined up in a row, greeted us with applause on the road to the altar in front of us. Normally, it seems to be a bit more serious and strict at a king’s wedding ceremony, but in our case, we talked with everyone and decided on an enjoyable ceremony without any restrictions. I thought that would be more enjoyable for the invited guests.

For reference on how we should plan the wedding, and when I showed a video of a wedding on Earth, everyone told me that they wanted to incorporate this processional. There seems to be a similar format here as well. Here, it seems that the groom comes from the left with his mother and the bride comes from the right, and after facing each other, the bride and groom go to the altar. It took a style that is both earth-style and different-world style.

Kohaku and the rest of the summoned beast start to go away, letting me go forward by myself.

On Earth, we walk slowly toward the altar on a road called the Virgin Road. The altar is just a large stage set a little higher, but on top of that, it is decorated in a dome shape with colorful flowers by Cesca. It's an altar made of a hundred flowers.

I stopped just before the small stairs going up the altar and stood to the side. I need to wait for the brides here.

Eventually the door opened again and three people appeared there. At the center is Joseph-san, who was released from his trauma yesterday … or rather, the trauma was sealed, and his nieces, Elze and Linze, are escorted with their arms hooked with his on both sides.

"Oh! They are …!"

"Well! What a wonderful appearance…!"

Voices of admiration leak from the invitees.

I had seen the wedding dresses themselves, but it was the first time I saw the girls in them. Both Elze and Linze wore dresses made out of a material called Princess Line, which spreads softly from the waist to the hem. It seems that they chose similar dresses, probably because both have a twin. The only difference is that the color of the bouquet each has is different. Both of the girls were beautiful and were shining in their dresses.

Although they have different personalities, they are both attractive girls. It reminds me of meeting them in the back alley of Reflet, like yesterday. I never thought I would marry them at that time.

Elze is a delicate girl, despite her extroverted personality. She may be strong on the inside, but if she has troubles on the inside, she won’t tell anyone. I can't show my weaknesses. I want to support her.

Linze looks quiet on the contrary, but has a strong core. She is a serious and hard worker, and has the kindness to think about others first. Her dedication keeps her to be humble. I want to cherish her sincerely.

Joseph-san walks slowly with the two dressed in pure white dresses. I may seem nervous, but it's much better than before. Elze and Linze, who are being led by Joseph-san, also seem tense, but the wedding veils cover their faces.

Eventually, Joseph-san, who arrived at the altar, thanked me.

"Thank you for taking them in as wives."

"I will make sure that they are happy."

Perhaps because of the tension, I almost thank Joseph-san, who is interacting brilliantly, and first take Elze's hand and help her go up to the altar.

I then take Linze's hand and sent her to the altar in the same way as with Elze.

When Joseph-san left from the left hand side under the altar, the doors were opened again, and this time Yae and her father, Jubei-san, appeared in the same way as Elze and Linze did with their uncle.

It seems a little strange that Yae is wearing a wedding dress, but Jubei is wearing a crest, but that’s a trivial matter.

By the way, the order of their entrances is the order in which they met me. Yae met me after Elze and Linze on our first adventure. At that time, when I saw her defeating the men, I thought she was a great girl.

She was surprisingly clumsy, but I quickly realized that she was a kind girl with a feeling that you can only get with family. Her laid-back personality always helped to calm everyone around her down. Her cheerful smile makes everyone happy.

I take that hand of Yae, who is different from usual and is wearing something different from her kimono that she always wears.

"Thank you for taking my daughter as a wife."

"Yes, leave it to me."

Jubei-san leaves with a bow and I take Yae to the altar in the same way as I did with the twins.

Then Su appeared with Duke Alfred.

We met Su soon after we met Yae. If I hadn't met her, I wouldn't have met Yumina, and if I hadn't met Yumina, I might not have become the king of a nation.

Su, who only looked like a child when we met, grew a little taller and became more like a lady. She is the youngest of my brides at twelve years old, and I still wonder what it would be like to get married at that age. But one day she had to marry me after she proposed, and she didn’t want to postpone the wedding just for her or else she would feel like the outlier of the group. She said that being able to hold a ceremony with everyone else would be fine.

This curious and active child always amazes everyone. There are some bad parts of her personality, but there are also cute parts.

I take the hand of such a small Su and lead her to the altar.

"I'm a little worried about what will happen, but …"

"It's okay, because Su is pretty solid."

The Duke of Ortlinde smiles and bows then goes away. While going up to the altar, Su said, "My father is too worried."

The doors open and a fifth person, Yumina, appears with His Majesty the King of Belfast.

With her bold actions, she rushed into my life and became a key part of it quickly. Before I knew it, I couldn't take my eyes off her. I'm really glad that I can accept Yumina's feelings now.

By the time she met me, she had already expected this to happen and was moving according to that better direction. Occasionally, I feel like I'm playing right on the palm of her hands, but I think that's another thing that attracts me to Yumina.

The two walk quietly on the Virgin Road.

"Touya-san… Thank you."

"Yes."

I shortly answer the King of Belfast and take Yumina's hand. Slowly, I went up to the altar with her.

In the case of Leen, the next one in line, her fairy parents have already passed away. That is why the Beast King of Mismede was escorting her as a substitute. Paula is in the guest seat for today.

In a gorgeous wedding dress, she looks somewhat curious yet beautiful. She's the only one who's older than me, but Leen is childish and mischievous. Including such aspects, she is just a regular girl by the name of Leen. Age doesn't matter.

Without her support, I wouldn't have searched for Babylon, I wouldn't have started mass-producing Frame Gear, and the world might have been overrun by the Phrase. With that in mind, it can be said that her curiosity saved the world, in the end.

I take the hand of such a saviour of this world.

"Make her happy, Touya-dono!"

"I understand. I’ll be sure to do so."

With a smile, His Majesty the Beast King gave a bow and turned his back to the altar, heading for the exit.

After taking Leen up to the altar, Lu was escorted by His Majesty the Emperor of Regulus and came towards me.

His Majesty the Emperor Regulus, who was on the verge of death at one point, has become much healthier. It is said that he will soon transfer the throne to Lu's older brother, the Crown Prince, and abdicate.

I met Lu during a coup d'etat in Regulus. At that time … if we were just a bit too late, Lu may have been killed…

Lu came to Brunhild and developed her talent for cooking. But behind the scenes, I know that she made a huge effort. Lu hates to lose but doesn't brag about her achievements. Once she sets a goal, Lu follows it ‘til the end. I also want to emulate that kind of thing.

His Majesty the Emperor bowed lightly, seeing off Lou as he walked to me.

"Thank you for taking my daughter."

"Of course."

I led Lu to the altar in the same way as everyone before, and when I saw the two who appeared next when the doors opened, I smiled unintentionally.

"Following" His Majesty the Demon King of Zenoas, who was a crying and tattered mess, Sakura appeared with a veiled but amazing feeling.

It seems that Sakura wanted her mother, Fiana, to act as the escort, but the Demon King asked to do this while even begging in a dogeza. Perhaps feeling that he was too pitiful, Fiana accepted this and Sakura also reluctantly accepted.

The pace of Sakura’s walking is a little fast. I can understand the idea of ​​getting it done quickly. I wonder if they still haven't come to terms with each other yet …

Sakura had lost her memory when we first met. She was almost dead after being hunted by Yulong's assassins. What would have happened without Babylon's technology which helped heal her?

Sakura is usually silent and does not express much emotion, but when listening to music or singing, she looks just like any other person. Her beautiful singing voice will continue to entertain and make people happy. I wish to help her keep doing what she loves.

Sakura arrived towards me, and faster than the other brides, I had to match her pace while going to the altar, which was fast.

As I was impressed with Sakura’s speed which was both fast yet elegant and smiled, my shoulders were grasped tightly by the Demon King.

"Mmm, you best make my daughter happy!"

"I will do my best!"

What is this scary thing? Stop, and keep your face away! You have tears and a runny nose! My tie might get dirty!

When I saw His Majesty the Demon King running away while crying, I was a little worried whether I could go out with him as a father-in-law. I am king and need to be dignified, after all.

Hilda finally appeared with the former King of Restia at exactly that moment and I was a bit weary, since that erotica king is the escort.

Hilda is the seventh in the order of confessions, but the last in the order of encounter.

She always shows a dignified appearance that embodies the spirit of chivalry, but only today, cuteness precedes dignity. Hilda, holding a small bouquet instead of a sword and wearing a pure white wedding dress instead of armor, slowly came in front of me.

I respect her, who has a strong sense of responsibility and always has a sincere attitude. However, there are some places where it is impossible to fulfill that responsibility. Speaking of Hilda, it's Hilda. I wish I could support her including such a place.

"Thank you for accepting my granddaughter. Good luck to the both of you."

"Thank you."

I received Hilda's hand from the former King of Restia and led her to the altar. Now there are nine brides on the altar.

After His Majesty's Majesty left, I thanked all the guests for coming and went up to the altar. The repeating "Wedding March" is finally over, and silence comes around.

"[In the name of the Spirit Sing. Come, spirits]"

I call the great spirits using the spirit language in a small voice. Nowadays, there are some people who understand the spirit language at the wedding hall, so it would be a shame if someone found out about what I did.

Immediately, a huge pillar of fire stands above the altar. Then a pillar of water stands and a tornado starts up in the air. Sand and stones soared in the wind, and finally a ball of light and a mass of darkness appeared.

"Oh……!"

"Wow …! Look, those are…!"

Despite the surprised voices of the invited guests, the elements all disappear in an instant, like dust, just as they did when they suddenly appeared. And after everything disappeared, six non-human girls appeared floating in the air.

They were the Fire Spirit, Water Spirit, Wind Spirit, Earth Spirit, Light Spirit, and Dark Spirit.
