"We hereby celebrate the victory of our kingdom of Friesia.
Cheers.
All voices echoed throughout the Great Hall.
A month-ago celebration of the recapture. The whole country was in the midst of festive noise, and the castle was now busy with many guests. The upstream aristocrats of the country, including the upper echelons, and the other upper echelons, had gathered to blow their faces at the winning wine.
The recapture and recovery of the First Princess Pride, and even the birth of the "Holy Knight", which appeared for the first time in hundreds of years. Both of those were enough rewards to make them daunt.
Waiting for the evening from the official announcement in the morning with no excitement or chill, few of the guests rose in their faces as soon as possible after the toast was made. Only the royal families of the kingdoms of Anemone and Hanazu, invited as contributing countries, are guests other than the nobility of the Kingdom of Friesia. Leaving behind are the Knights who played an active part in this recapture battle, not...
…………
"... excuse me. Um, would you mind if I...?
Cedric speaks to one of the confused figures in the venue.
Keep the name called and greeted, but the person called was bewildered by Cedric's onslaught and doubted his eyes. The person is not the only one. Many other figures kept their glasses open as they looked around the hall blindly without knowing where they were going.
The man, voiced by Cedric, was surprised that he was the first to be spoken to while returning his greetings. The opponent is the second prince of the United Hanazoo kingdom. Since the war of recapture, the royal family of the Kingdom of Friesia has also recognized him as "the king's brother," a man who has been weighed down.
The man, who had never even been spoken to except by a nobleman, suddenly finds himself in being spoken to by the royal family. Keep your head down and think that you must still be wondering that someone like ourselves is invited to this occasion. Rarely could he stop sweating cold, he enjoyed wanting to moisten his thirst all the time. I can't do it cheaply before my brother Wang. Yes. Even while he was thinking, Cedric frowned and inquired after his greeting and words of labor to the man.
"I haven't had an excellent complexion since earlier...... Others seem to, and is it still hard to fatigue during the day? Lord Jack."
Jack.
Being a Pride Kingsguard, he shook his head sideways at Cedric's words. Not at all, and basically a small mouthful, he still returned the word for sure to Cedric.
I'm not tired. Sure, Jack was in a hurry with escorts and security during the day, just like any other invited guard, but that's everyday. Instead, more than twice that, there was strong confusion about the situation on this occasion now.
Normally, even if a castle becomes a battlefield and stands on their own arrowheads to mix with their enemies, they are rarely invited to a victory celebration where they, the guards, have also exchanged nobles. Unlike knights who raise martial arts medals, it is only their job to protect the castle, the sphere of responsibility and the person in charge. And even at this celebration, they weren't supposed to be as guests, they were just being called in as escorts and guards.
But for some reason, if you come at the scheduled time, it's from Style, the first prince. "This time, your jurisdiction is in the hands of the Knights. Drinking is a rest between forbidden bundles, but have fun," he said, and was invited to a celebration to flow.
They are basically guards, unlike knights, whose status is never high. Sometimes in the castle it is even seen as much as a samurai. Even though they will be carefully selected, they will be hired as long as they pass some interviews and exams, or even connections, just like them. They are honored with breaking through their lair, which is far more difficult than the guards personally hired by the upper echelons, and with protecting the castle where the royal family lives, not even under the castle, but also of common origin or less. It was unlikely that they would be invited to a castle victory where those who were at the top of the social world, not even intermediate aristocracy, would be invited.
I couldn't hide the confusion in vain. "But after this, I'll have you all working," Style also tells them the details. When I heard that, they were finally a little convinced, too, but still enough to have either way, such as being invited to a celebration instead.
The rare treats that we had were in line with the narrow ones, and there were plenty of beverages in the festival that rarely contained alcohol. On top of that, the waiters and maids had been instructed to frequently carry dishes well served to them so that they could not reluctantly enjoy the party satisfactorily.
Even as they stand blindly, they definitely receive food and drinks, and are even spoken to by a senior class of people who are never allowed to exchange words. No one looked in doubt that they had been invited, as the guests had already been contacted in advance in a letter. Rather, many of them labor as if they were knights, listen, and slap their shoulders as meritorious men this time. The guards were baffled that they were supposed to receive the praise that knights on this occasion deserved.
"These places are awe-inspiring to us...
"What do you say? All the guards, including Lord Jack, were meritorious enough to protect those in the castle in this recapture. Even the invitation is well communicated to that effect.
Please put your chest up, Jack can't lift his head to Cedric, who is inspired.
It really makes me wonder at the bottom of my heart if this is the same person as that prince who repeatedly committed foolishness a year ago and turned the castle against his enemies. Even though he's often beside his pride as a Kingsguard, I didn't expect him to talk to someone who's only on the edge like himself. Cedric in particular is the only one who has not been informed of the details this time, but one of the meritorious men who saved the Kingdom of Friesia in the recapture battle. This morning, the Queen was immediately introduced to the people.
Moreover, many of his captivated samurai had stayed in the castle for a long time about a month before. Many senior aristocratic ladies who still turn their gaze to talk to him now tide their cheeks, and male aristocrats are also aiming to get close to him again. Jack's questioning of why he came all the way through the hedge to himself, surrounded by guests with two kings of the United Hanazoo kingdom, is endless.
"The invitation also stated that" those who kept the security of the castle in the shadows and before the recapture war ".... Must have been an unthinkable battle between us.
Receiving Cedric's words, Jack accidentally rang his throat.
This time, many guards were invited to the celebration, including him. Not only those who dwelt in the castle during the recapture war, but also those who missed escape, and those who were on the escort of the maids and servants who were hiding underground. Those who held her hostage many times to flee in the tower of separation where she was in pride before the recapture war. Not only those who were wounded by pride, but those who were provoked by Adam while on guard, or those who were escorted and provoked on the spot first when the top was attacked. Even the guards, who were not involved in the battle at all until Arthur woke them up in the recapture battle, were naturally invited.
Instead, they were also the most meritorious people that Steele wanted to work with.
They stood up for the royalty until they were on the verge of being deranged. Furthermore, there was a desire in the style to dispel any distrust of her by the guards who were injured because of their pride. That was when I was instructed by Stayle to join me as an invitee, and the phrase, "It is the gratitude and apology of the First Princess of Pride," told the story of it all.
And now, as they are deputized for security by the Knights, they receive more hospitality than they deserve as guards. The only people who are invited to this occasion as knights were Roderick, the Knight Commander, and Clark, the Deputy Commander, Arthur, who bombarded that name at this morning's awards ceremony, and Alan and Eric, who refrain from being the Kingsguard knights of Pride. Instead of many invited guards, the Knights, now the strongest warrior in the Kingdom of Friesia, are defending each base in a complete system. With knights deployed, including temperature-sensitive special abilities, from outside the castle to inside the Great Hall, which is the venue, it was undoubtedly a system of iron walls more than they protected.
"As long as I'm happy to talk to Lord Jack like this.... I really apologized for the inconvenience before about a year ago. I am convinced that Lord Jack, who protects the First Princess of Pride, is a proud soldier of the Kingdom of Friesia.
Thank you for your continued support. That said Cedric, leaning the glass toward Jack, rocked the shake in the back of his eyes.
To that intent tilted toward himself, Jack leans the glass toward him in awe and in awe, hitting each other.
Karavan, and a mild sound shakes the eardrum. And I feel it again as I moisten my throat with the king's brother in front of me. Now we are invited in the whirlpool of victory.
The First Princess of Pride was still said to be a great popular desire, and if Cedric showed me with his gaze, Pride was walking in graceful footsteps ahead of me when I looked back. While gathering the gaze of many nobles, it is all the guards invited by the style who walk and turn with words as she wishes. Many guards tided her face as she turned her heartfelt grin and gave each and every one an occasional distressed look.
I'm sure she'll come and say hello to herself, too. Jack thought so after understanding a person called Pride, not complacency.
In the most dazzling and brilliant part of the country, the curtain of the celebration was opened.
