Border Guardian Hal Akircius

Chapter 9: The Spring and Ceremony of the Year in Cilentium (Part 2)

Cilentium and administrative district, city council hall

Each chief and hull assembled in the city council hall rise to the altar, watched by the founders of each tribe, the citizens of Cilentium, and the founders of other tribes.

Needless to say, they all harden themselves in the attire of each tribe and wear vibrant decorations.

Pulling luxuriously decorated swords out of their hips from sheath to sheath, the chiefs lifted each sword on their chests according to the ritual of alliance of Cliffonam.

Shhhhh.

Then, breathing together, they pull out their swords simultaneously, and the chiefs state their pledge poetry with their sword tips on an alliance pledge bearing the seal of the Sun God posted on the wall.

"" We gather in the presence of the Sun God, chief of the tribe! Raise your sword, hang your pride, and exchange your alliance here with its name and life!!

The Alliance Pledge, which was signed by the Chiefs the other day, emitted a thin light, but was sent a Pledge Poem, which increased its radiance.

"" Alliance, be it eternal!

When the Charter of the Cilentium Alliance is read out by the Chiefs and finally its chanting is over, the light becomes strong for a moment and covers the venue before returning to the original quiet light.

As the Chiefs returned their swords to their sheaths, Ellesia, who had refrained behind them, moved forward.

And when he pointed the great priest's staff of his hand toward the Alliance Pledge, it snapped off the wall and quietly tucked into Ellesia's hand.

While the Alliance pledge shines a bright light, it remains straight stretched without breaking or dripping in Ellesia's hands.

"The Alliance is now officially inaugurated at this time. The Alliance Pledge is confirmed by me, the Grand Cleric of the Temple of the Sun, and I hereby declare that the Alliance is authentic.

I handed that alliance pledge to Hull, my alliance lord, while Erlacia said so.

The moment Hal harshly receives it and then puts it overhead and points it at the venue, he cheers like an explosion from the venue.

The establishment and inauguration of the Cilentium Alliance, the first national organization on the northern border, was hereby declared both internally and externally.

When the excitement of the venue begins to subside, the Cilentium clock rings.

Heavy metal-specific sounds rang throughout Cilentium, and the sounds bounced back against the walls to become multiple bell sounds, reaching not only every corner of the city, but even the suburbs.

Finally, from now on, it is the beginning of the wedding of Hal and Ellesia.

"You're so popular!

"... um, it's just that this is worth forming an alliance.

When Gatti, the Alpecio chief who got off the stage and was guided to the guest table, said so with an unexpected bitter smile, Randeles, the Berefes chief, responded, and the other chiefs nodded.

As the saying goes, the bell rings, and at the same time the city council hall has been pushed more and more by the citizens of Cilentium.

I can see that everyone is wearing their finest compliments, not luxurious but dressed in beautiful clothing.

Soon, however, the city council hall was filled with decorated citizens, and citizens who were unable to enter the floor were gathering more and more on the boulevards and squares.

One girl dressed prominently in that.

"Wow!

Wrapped in empty feathers, a maple with a knife on his waist raised his surprise at the crowd.

Feathers are the authentic costumes of the islands, but it belongs only to men, but because there is no other clothing, Maple made Hal agree to participate in the appearance of Rin and Beauty.

Maple says, "No one knows what to wear or dress for a group of islands".

But coupled with the characteristic outfit and cool maple appearance of nothing else, all the people on the road looked back and were seen by the lightly walked maple.

A voice hangs on the back of such a maple as it slips through a sudden crowd.

"Or, Mr. Maple, wait a minute..."

"Maple sister, you're walking fast!

It was Primia and her brother Ortus who spoke out.

The crowd interrupted me and the two, not so big as an imperial, were completely buried, and Maple stopped for a while without being able to find the two of them, though he looked back.

At last, Primia fastened her belt to an imperial-style white longcoat, while Ortus dressed in an oval longcoat from above a white piercing coat.

The three will naturally attend the wedding as guests.

"Oh, I'm sorry, was it a little early?

The people avoiding the maple waiting for the two annoyingly soon came to think of Hal's yet another cousin, the maple, from its characteristic appearance and outfit, smiling and passing.

Some of them say "congratulations," but every time a maple returns a subtle smile.

"Mr. Maple..."

Primia looks at that face and feels the feeling inside her bother, calling it that unexpectedly.

Primia sensibly felt the same emotional mix in the complex look of the maple.

"Oh, here you are, then what do you say?

When Primia and Ortus came after him, Maple made a smile and said so, walking out refreshed without answering Primia's call.

Three people who walk silently for a while, does Ortus also have somewhere to think about, say nothing but look at the face of Primia and Maple from time to time, and walk adulterously.

And the city council hall approached the present and said that the maple was puffy.

"It's Brother Hal's sunny stage, so hey, we need to cheer up..."

"Yeah, right..."

That being said, they were two people who didn't feel quite sunny.

At the Dongzhao City Embassy, two Dongzhao men were dressed up and were beginning to prepare to attend the wedding.

However, the embassy is next to the Temple of the Sun, and the city council hall behind it is close to the proportion, so the two people who are tightening wide bands on the characteristic clothes of the forehead enjoy Dongzhao tea now without having been in such a hurry.

"Absolutely, that's a place that really entertains me. This is...

"Isn't fun a good thing? I like this city. I'm serious about emigrating.

Speaking in Oriental are two people, Feng Xuanhuang and Sukedaicheng.

To Feng Xuanhuang's words, Sukedai Cheng laughed.

"Ha ha, it's a good thing they found it worth living, because your face was rotten when you fled to the north full of debt, but now you're alive.

"... I owe it to Sunnyi to be able to do this now. So if I could, I'd like you to keep me company..."

"Adult, or..."

"That's right.

To Feng Xuanhuang's words, Sosuke Daicheng enjoyed tea and slowly opened his mouth, showing a slight gesture of contemplation.

"... well, let's do it right, it's no exaggeration to say I'm a part of this city now, because you've already lived six months. Besides, I really like this city too.

"Then good... well, it's time to go.

"Oh."

Saying so, he answered Feng Xuanhuang, who stood up, putting down a tea bowl, and slowly lifted his hips.

In the Sun Temple next door, the pharmacists and Alshalea were helping, and Ellesia was being chased to prepare for it.

I don't have much time left because it's preparation since I joined the alliance signing ceremony.

Change from a pure white clergy outfit to a white bridesmaid costume with a light pink color and tie the long blonde hair into a single threesome at the back.

If you wore a thin lipstick, silver neckline, and fitted a bright crown knitted with spring flowers, there was a clear, pathetic, and glossy look of Cliffonam's raucous young bride.

"Come on, we're done! It's really nice, El.

Alshalea is also breathtaking enough for her voice to play, as are the medics around her.

"Thank you, aunt, and thank you all very much.

Alshalea and the pharmacists tremble when they feel something nasty about Ellesia bowing their heads truly.

"Elle, you're a little unusual... can't smile today other than you, Hal?

"I know, aunt.

From Ellesia smiling as she answered yes, Alshalea accidentally took her gaze off and shouted.

"No, I said no!

On the other hand, the Executive Office of the Government.

Wearing polished silver imperial armor from the top of the feathers, and furthermore wrapped in a white oval coat, Hal was dressed no different than when he came out of the alliance signing ceremony, so preparations are already over.

What changed was that he held a helmet fitted with the crown of Fried and hung a red shoulder cloth.

"Whoa, you look different!

He does not attend the signing ceremony of the alliance, and Julianus, who waited in the office, hurls so.

In the end, Yulianus did not talk about the thoughts of Emperor Magnus by clouding his words.

It just ended with a little "I hope" and ended up with ceremonial time.

I couldn't pursue it any further, and the face of Cilentium, once given up, was now fully energized by the ceremony.

'Um, well, inferior to when I was younger, but quite something!

Hull grins stiffly as Altrius, who bought a Julianus watchman next to him, says satisfactorily as he arms up.

"... Oh, thank you, so, I'll be there.

Answered in a slightly uncertain tone of nervousness, Hal walked to the venue with Quintus as his escort.

Today, the government buildings are idle because officials are turning to ceremonial preparations and facilitators in general.

Now that Hal, the protagonist, has left again, there are almost no security people, only two of them, Altrius and Julianus, to mention just this office.

In a quiet office, ghosts and royalty.

Julianus, who cooled his liver when he first saw Altrius, who appeared called by Hull, but knew the secretary only to be royal, and was immediately convinced of his presence.

I wonder if the two of them have entered, and I heard cheers from the direction of the City Councillor's Council Hall.

"This is how my dreams come true one by one, and it was worth wandering the earth in shame..."

"No ghost dreams. The Empire doesn't need them, does it? Dreams of the dead aren't much of a thing.

When Julianus says, who overheard the words of Altrius, who crushed emotionally innumerably when he heard the cheer, Altrius says back with a blue muscle on his forehead.

"Hmm! I am certainly a ghost, but all the royal families of today are still alive and mortal. You can't put this Cilentium on the thoughts of a living corpse!

"... don't poke me in the pain, hero Altrius.

Forty years ago, you foolishly rode that thought, but this city perished once. I will not let you jerk off again.

"Well, don't say that, things didn't exactly change from then on, now it's okay.

To Julianus' words, when Altrius, with an angry grin, added the words, Julianus responded with an excused tone, shrugging his shoulders, but he could not argue with the words of Artrius, which were further inherited, and became silent.

"The last royal family I came to... the emperor now? He said the same thing, but he didn't keep his word, and I'm dead here, right? Can you trust me?

After seeing and gaining certainty about the silent Julianus, Altrius touches Julianus' hair all the time.

When Julianus dropped his shoulder all the way down and put a cold sweat on his face with a stunned look, there he was looking at Altrius with the black smoke out of his hand.

Dead hair falls apart in front of you, becoming sand and scattering before you reach the floor.

"I'm going to miss out on you until we're done with the surveillance, but after that, I can't guarantee it. You want me to leave sick within my reason... and turn it into Cilentium sand without my realizing it?

From the tip of Julianus' jaw, the droplets fell to the floor with a bump.

Behind the city council hall, Hal with Quintus meets Ellesia with Alshalea.

Two people are supposed to enter from here through the entrance to the chairman's seat on the floor.

"Ah, Hal.

Erlacia, who was slightly ahead of schedule, found Hull and waved.

"El!"

Waving back at her hand, Hal approaches Ellesia, but comes close and stares seriously at her.

And I was distracted by that clear, poor bride figure, and I lost my word.

"Um, what's wrong?

"... beautiful.

"... ho, really, uh- I'm so happy."

Erlacia, who was a little anxious about how Hal was doing, makes her face shine with those words.

And Ars Hallea took my hand and stopped me from trying to jump on Hal.

"Oh, Auntie."

"Not yet, makeup and costumes are gonna get messed up. Later.

"... yes.

Hal stares bitterly at Ellesia as she pulls back.

Thanks to this, the tension seems to have eased a lot.

"So shall we go?

"Yes."

Ellesia softly puts her hand on Hal's offered hand.

After holding onto the put hand once, Hal started walking ahead as if to offer and guide Ellesia's hand in accordance with the method.

The wedding of Hal and Ellesia takes place in a cliffonam manner in a gender parity format.

They were withdrawn in two opinions about the Imperial wedding, which was based on the process of delegating ownership of the woman who would be the wife.

It's just that if it was meant to be, it would put aside an attendant or a witness to intercede, but about this time, I made sure that all citizens would be present.

It is also to avoid being received by certain tribes and forces, but it is due to numerous and strong requests from citizens to participate in some way in weddings.

The name tag holder of the attendees placed in front of the fountain in Central Square has already been queued for long serpents, with the Registrar Dresines and his men entrusted with the management going right and left.

The city council hall, which had been bothered until then, calmed down when the earlier Quintus entered.

The floor rocks at length as Ellesia, who was then drawn to Hull and Hull, shows up.

"... I didn't know you'd be as beautiful as that."

"... Damn it, you Hal guy!

"You don't have a word.

"Fine - I'll one day..."

"Waha, now the market for Cilentium will be vibrant again.

"Beautiful... I want that figure to come to life.

"Uhm, border guard. Which one are you jealous of?

"Lord Achillsius, it's lovely.

The face of the Cilentium administration turning to the back this time leaks the word.

Meanwhile, the Chiefs sitting in the guest table stared at Hal and Ellesia without words.

Finally, Goosind says blush.

"Preparing more daughters than that is going to break my bones... shouldn't I give up?

Those were the elders who nodded without words.

Until then, the two of them were on their way to the floor. When they slowly let go of their hands, they face each other.

Smiling from either side, Hal spun the words slowly.

"I will dedicate my sword and pride and my whole life with sincere love."

"I will protect your home with chaste love and devote my life to it"

At the same time that Hal's words are finished, Ellesia spins the words accordingly, overlapping each other's palms at hip height.

"" We are excited about our new home in this land and we are not family now!

Along with the two chants, a blurry light rises from the overlapping hands, wrapping the two.

The two appearances were invisible, wrapped in wonders like spring sunlight.

"Ko, what's this?

"We“ couples ”were blessed with the blessings of the Sun God. It is a blessing brought only to those who have truly become husband and wife with affection.

Surprised Hull to the margin. Ellesia leans over Hull with her body, opening her overlapping hands and tangling her fingers together in a nagging manner.

"Now we're a sunny couple... and I'm happy."

"El..."

Love overflows with her breasts poked up at Ellesia, who moisturizes her eyes and says:

In the warm light, Hal turned to Ellesia with his hands tangled together.

The light did not show any signs of subsidence, but rather spread out of the place where the two of them were, sparing the participants on the floor who watched them in solitary spit.

Shortly after surprise, the whole city is surrounded by warm sunlight.

As the light approached the administrative building, Altrius smiled like he was lonely.

"I can't even attend a wedding... and besides, at times like this, I shouldn't be resented for being a dead spirit.

Altrius disappears after glancing at Julianus so abandoned.

Julianus, who surprisingly missed the look, was engulfed in warm light a moment later.

"Hey, what's this?

A feeling of strange warmth but no reality.

But Julianus felt a sense of peace and security that he had never felt before accumulated quietly in him.

"Sometimes it's strange..."

Full of light converges and disappears.

And there were two people on the floor who talked at all times.

Whoa, whoa.

Participants cheered for the blessing at the same time to the sight.

Two people who once left looking illuminated and waved.

The cheers spread to the city one after the other, and the Cilentium was engulfed in celebratory voices and noise.

At the corner of the guest table when the prepared treat behaved like a citizen and the barrel of liquor was opened.

"Ugh, Brother Hal... went to his son-in-law..."

"Sister, Maple sister! Let's go over there and get a treat..."

"Ortus, you can go, we haven't... no, no."

"Ugh..."

"Okay... Sisters, cheer up?

"" Ugh. "

There was a figure of maple and primea that made me nod unexpectedly to Ortus' words.
