5.

Stage cleared.

It means that this world, [The Story of Sormwin Academy], has officially been incorporated into our tower.

Hunters can now travel back and forth in the world.

However, this does not mean that you are free to enter. You must be judged by the Giant Guilds. For example, a general hunter would need a permit to enter the Aikim Empire.

I mean...

Pa!

Soon after the stage is declared clear, a white flash flashes. Pod, pod! There was light everywhere at the wedding ceremony. It was a sight to see when Hunters were being sent.

“God-king! No, Duke Kim! You!”

As the light subsides, you see familiar faces.

"How can you marry without consulting us?! ”

People who can go back and forth without a permit. Leader of the Giant Guild. One of them, the second ranked Hunter Black Dragon Juju, was blushing red.

“I'm against this wedding!! ”

"......."

“The Four Kings represent our tower, Hunter! Of course, the wedding should take place not here, but on the first floor of our tower, in the city of Babylon! We have to go live to the world! This wedding is null and void! ”

It wasn't just the Black Dragon Juju who raised his voice.

“Hmmm. Hmm. Four Kings.”

Rank number one hunter. The sword also wiped out his voice.

“Congratulations on clearing the stage first. Really... It was a quick romance. No, I know it's rude to bring this up here, but as an old man --”

“Don't do it. ”

“Hmm."

The Sword is silent. I was a person who was trying to fix the old spirit.

“There was a commotion while you were raiding the tower. Why are you two in love? But I took your side with ease. Love at first sight is known only to those who have experienced it firsthand. Don't worry, I understand. Leave the Black Dragon Juice to me, I'll be in Germany. ”

And for some reason, the paladin raised his nose with a blunt face. The way he looked at me seemed to secretly say, ’I understand all your love.' I don't know what that means.

I looked back at Raviel.

“Hmm."

Raviel is expressionless, at first glance. I loved Raviel, so I could read her expression.

Raviel... was watching the group of Black Dragons very interestingly. The red eyes overflowed with honey.

“Confucius, my love. ”

“Go ahead, my love. ”

“Looks like you have a lot to introduce me to. ”

Yes….

It's a little late.

Skepticism, begin.

6.

I thought of course it was a courtesy before the wedding. But there were also cultural differences here. In the Empire, after marriage, it's usually customary to consult.

“Isn't that obvious? ”

Rather, Raviel tilts his head.

“Many people in the family live in remote regions. It is the wedding that invites and summons such people. On the night of the wedding, the bride, groom and members of both families greet each other. ”

“Ah…. Obviously.”

I was immediately convinced.

Marriage was also a family bond. Hunters like us who fled the outside world can't blame their families... but the empire was different. Family was much more important than individuals.

Even this wedding did not stop with family bonding.

No, it was the soul of the world.

Raviel, representative of the Empire. I represent the tower. It's our marriage.

“Haha... ”

The Grand Chamberlain, who was also my stepfather, laughed constantly.

“I never thought this would be the place.... I don't know how many times I'm going to send a message to His Majesty today. Now I don't know what to say. ”

“Yes, it was unintentional for us as well. ”

The Black Dragon Juju opens the door. Black Dragon Juju was extremely calm, as if when he was excited about me. The powers of the empire and the powers of the tower sat at the table side by side, vigilant to each other, and embarrassed together.

“But it won't be unintended misfortune, it'll be unintended luck. Grand Chamberlain, we are fortunate that your first meeting with us is on the verge of a wedding. ”

Then we spoke beyond alertness and embarrassment.

“I thought you were from another world. It is a difficult article to explain to His Majesty, and it cannot be easily published to the believers. ”

“Yes, that's right. I fully understand your situation. ”

The Black Dragon Juice nods. In this diplomatic position, the Black Dragon Master looks familiar. She thought she was stepping on the line between politeness and competence.

“However, the Grand Chamberlain must have witnessed the invasion of these two worlds. If you deny the existence of a human being, the existence of a human being will someday deny it. I'm worried about that future. ”

“Well, you're right. ”

“Thank you, Grand Chamberlain. What we need to do in the future is a shared understanding: five, 10, 20 years. Maybe it will take more than that..."

Both sides talked calmly.

Raviel was holding the Imperial forces in his grip, and I was completely trusted by the top men. The marriage between the two of us was also a great fortune on both sides.

It's hard for both sides to come together in one place. But Raviel and my wedding were successful from the very beginning. I couldn't get a better start.

"......."

I sat in the chair with Raviel. You reach under the table and grab Raviel's hand. Cough. Raviel clutches his fingers as if it were natural.

"......."

I felt relieved with just one gesture. The night is deep. The stars are bright. The candles were waving on the table, and people were talking among the candles.

Suddenly everything was beautiful.

“Raviel.”

“Tell me.”

A little whisper.

“A little, there are some people I'd like you to meet. ”

“Apart from those here? ”

“Yes."

“Then I'll have to see. ”

Raviel rises from his seat.

The Imperial party has closed their mouths.

“It's been a long night. Talk calmly with each other. I'm going to meet your people for a while."

"......."

No one could stop Raviel from leaving. The Duke of Ivanxia. If going out when I wanted to, if it was proof of power, my wife enjoyed immeasurable power here.

Where I took Raviel, the Christians sat in droves.

“Oh, little bishop! I'm a newlywed from now on!”

She raises her glass and smiles. All the churchgoers were drunk on the drinks they gave me at the wedding. You look at me and try to stand up to greet me, but I shake my hand. Then the Christians sat down and took over.

“Congratulations!”

“Glory be to you, my lord! ”

“The drinks here are unusual and I love it! ”

“Long live the world! ”

“Whew! You two look great together! ”

The wedding venue became noisy at once. Then there was a thousand Christians, and I couldn't help but panic. I spilled a bitter smile.

“Blackhorse. Come here. ”

“Yay?”

She blinks with a glass in her hand. He looked dumbfounded as if he didn't expect to be targeted by me. The drunken fellows around you chuckle.

“Look! I think he's going to get scolded by Little Lord one day! ”

“Every time I call Lord Xu, I forget to sleep with him. Idiot.”

“Beat your ass, little lord! ”

“H-uh-uh... ”

She lowers her glass and hesitates. When you beheaded the Ghost Legion general, the shield disappeared. I cringed like a child who did something wrong.

“Sorry, sorry. Little Bishop, I didn't learn my lesson, so this is not very respectful. But in my mind, I'm looking at my little bishop really well.... ”

A sword that makes excuses for juggling.

I put my hand on his shoulder.

“Raviel.”

And I told my bride.

“This is the black horse. ”

"......."

“I'm a servant of the man I served as a teacher. My teacher was the leader of a place called the Bridge. The teacher chose four outstanding people from the Christians and called them the Samaritan Army. She's one of them. ”

“Oh.”

Raviel glances at the Black Horse. The sword flinches.

“A naive man. He has a harsh tone and an impetuous attitude. Demonstrate that your teacher did not judge a person by the cruelty of his speech and attitude. I found a person in a rough and crude place, so he must be a rare and rare person. ”

"......."

“I am Raviel E. Vancia. She is the Duke of the Empire, and the wife of your socialist. Take good care of him."

“Yes, yes. Please... take care of it. ”

I turned my head.

“Wolverine.”

"......."

“Come here. ”

One of the Christians stood up. He bows politely.

“Yes, my lord. ”

The strange silence settled in the night sky. I stopped talking while drinking. I summoned the Samaritans one by one, and each time, the Samaritans behaved extremely politely.

And I called the next person I wanted to introduce.

“Angler.”

“…… Yes, Joogun. ”

“Come here. ”

“Yes."

An Angler who was mixed with the Christians arose. She's already tidying up her wardrobe, waiting for my call.

“This child's name is…… Angler. ”

I told you.

“Anglers were born as unnamed magic. Doppelgänger. He could mimic what he ate. In the beginning, the anglers who swallowed animals like frogs and snakes, accidentally ate humans. And…"

The angler lowers his head quietly. Occasionally, her shoulders tremble. The intestine followed a strange silence.

I introduced them to their lives, and thereby introduced them to mine.

One man told the other his life. Under the night sky. It was, by itself, so sacred.

“Again... ah. True."

I unsheathed the sword from my waist.

“This child is sparkly. ”

“Sparkle?”

“Yes. It's actually a more plausible name. I was tricked by a bad man and sealed by a sword. Her real name was [Goddess of Protection], so she just nicknamed it Sparkle. Well, it's shiny... It's so... ”

“Indeed.”

Raviel chuckles.

“Your wife's name is a bit harsh. It's nocturnal. At least I would have given it a name. ”

[I pledge allegiance to your sparkling companion!]

It was a glimmer that quickly changed the subject of loyalty.

“Hmm."

And...

“I can't see you here right now... but I have a friend. ”

Behind you.

“Maybe Raviel will never see it. I can't meet.... He's a little unusual. I can't stand in front of other people."

My partner.

“You have a very vulgar tone. My mouth is 30 times dirtier than that of a sword. But it's very strong. Amazingly... I first learned swordsmanship from this guy, and I also learned error. ”

“Oh, you're a nobleman."

-.......

The messenger was silent.

Dressed in shabby robes. Arms together.

Instead of mocking as usual, the messenger silently came out and looked at Raviel.

“…… I probably wouldn't have made it through my time without him. ”

“I see.”

“Yes."

“Then I should thank him. ”

Raviel bows his head.

Towards the air where nothing can be seen.

“I met the Confucius and became happy. If he hadn't helped the Confederate, none of my happiness would have been possible. I thank you for all you have done for me in this moment. ”

The messenger slowly opens his mouth.

-Hey, take care of him, he's an idiot.

I said it on my behalf.

“If he had listened to Raviel, he would have said I was a lunatic and I asked him nicely. ”

"You've made a wonderful friend."

I took a big breath.

“Raviel.”

This.

“This is all I have. ”

Everything I care about.

Everyone who opened the door to my heart.

My family's family's home.

"......."

Raviel grabs my hand tightly.

“Dear Lord.”

“Yes."

“I dance. ”

Raviel's eyes are filled with intense demands. I hesitated. When Raviel looks at me like this, when he strongly wants to do something with me, I couldn't resist.

“I've never really danced. ”

“The butler still has a little memory. Take note.”

“What if you step on Raviel's foot for nothing? I'll kill myself.”

Raviel shows his actions instead of his answers. He bent over and took off his black shoes. A moment later, she barefoot steps into the grass and soil of the grass.

White feet.

She seems to have lightened herself like the wind, even though she just took off her shoes.

“Come on.”

"......."

I took off my white shoes and socks hesitantly. Then Raviel grabbed my hand and led me straight to him.

One step. Two steps.

Raviel stomps the petals off the grass with his toes. The cherry blossoms, cherry blossoms, and white petals were lighter as they were trampled.

"......."

No one makes a sound. I didn't hear any music. There were no statues decorated by the ballroom, and only the moonlight sank like a frost in the flower garden.

Just the two of us.

“… look. ”

I smiled on the steps.

“It's a mess. I've stepped on Raviel's feet three times already. Dancing is not really my thing. Are you going to embarrass me and kill me? ”

“It's okay. I can step on your feet just as much as you can. ”

As soon as I ran out of words, Raviel stepped on the back of my foot. Her weight was delivered evenly. Raviel smiles playfully.

“Look. Fair enough. ”

There was a smile that only I could see in this world. My red jewel. My heart. My music.

The moonlight statue shines our shadow.

The dance between the two of us was not to step on each other's feet. Even if you step on your feet, don't let go. In any misfortune, they smiled small and looked at each other's faces.

I belong only to Raviel.

Raviel is mine alone.

Yes, we danced. Everywhere the moonlight came from was me and Raviel's ballroom. With only two people, any world could be staged.

On this day, we got married.

Our next story, more than ever, will begin on a higher stage.
