Chapter 197: Chapter 197. Wedding Ceremony ( Part-1.5 )
Hmm, seems like Aisha and Sylphy had thought quite deeply before preparing this dress for me, it is not only very comfortable but also fits perfectly, Myne thought while looking at himself in the mirror with a satisfied ear-to-ear grin on his face.
"Now, I finished changing and it didn't take even five minutes, just as I expected. However, I still have plenty of time before the start of the ceremony, what should I do till then?"
As Myne pondered on that, a knock came from the door.
Myne opened the door in confusion and saw the male members of the royal family with Faren leading them standing in front of the door with wide smiles on their faces.
"Looks like our groom is very impatient, he already gets ready to meet his brides," Aniue jokes lightly with a laugh while hitting on Myne's back as always. This guy clearly enjoys hitting on Myne's back very much.
"Isn't it normal? After all, today is a very special day for him, and his brides.
Anyway, this kind of thing is not something a guy who spends most of his time with bulky men can understand," Lewis like a dutiful younger brother immediately taunts Aniue while adjusting his goggles with a smirk, giving him a hundred points of emotional damage but because Faren was with them he could only grit his teeth and ensure this humiliation without saying anything back,
After this little event, Myne received congratulatory words one by one starting from Faren, followed by Aniue, Lewis, and finally, Rector who looked most excited among all four. Clearly, he is still very grateful to Myne for helping him to get together with his sweetheart, although that wasn't intentional but anyway, Rector didn't care about small details.
During their simple talk, Myne also learned that two queens and Ayri went to Sylphy and Aisha to accompany them.
"Which reminds me, Myne. You have decided on your house name, have you not?" Faren enquired with a raise of his eyebrow.
"Yes, we have decided, it will be "Fortuna."
"Oh, you have decided on quite a good house name, Faren nodded his head with acknowledgement.
"Yes, it is indeed a nice name, Fortuna, it should reference the goddess of fortune and luck, right?" Lewis asked and Myne could only nod his head with a smile without saying anything else, as he himself only knew a little about it.
"Come to think of it, Myne, your parents have passed away, right?"
As topics on which everyone can talk become less and less and silence was about to return in the room filled with five men, Faren randomly said in order to not make an awkward situation.
"Yes? They were infected by an epidemic when I was 9 years old," Myne replied confusedly with a raise of his eyebrow, he suddenly had a strange thought in his mind...
"Sorry, I made you remember a painful thing."
"By the way, I heard from Sylphy that they were the heroes of your town, right? What kind of people were they, can you tell us their names?" Faren asked curiously with a smile trying to light up the mood.
"Hold on a minute! What did you just say?" Myne instead of excitedly talking about his dead parents like Faren had expected, speechlessly questioned him back with a shocked expression.
I am too naive, who believe in his sweet nonsense, Myne thought with a sigh, while shaking his head helplessly.
As Myne was dumbfounded by the truth, Faren made an expression as if a little troubled and guilty, and started talking to him while looking at the ceiling...
"You do not need to make such a face. You're thinking 'I wasn't acknowledged until now?' Right?"
"What thinking, this is a fact, and you, yourself confirm it," Myne taunts while rolling his eyes. Read additional content at m-vl-em|p-yr
"Cough, seems like you misunderstood me. Let me see if I had to say, then this declaration isn't towards you, but rather take it as towards your parents."
"Okay? But why do spirits need your declaration in the first place? It is not like they can hear you," Myne suddenly asked with a confused expression, making a vein pop up on Faren's forehead.
"Can't you be a little serious for some moments? I am not in the mood to joke right now," Faren angrily said while trying to calm down himself.
"As you wish, you talk, I will be silent from now on," Myne raises his hand in a surrender motion.
"Sigh, so where I was, ohh yes. Before I became the king, your parents and I, along with my wife, Garnet, were in a party together for some time," Faren said in a heavy voice.
"Really?!" Myne exclaimed with disbelief.
"Then Why have I never heard about you from my parents?" Myne asked doubtfully with a frown.
"Yes, Father? This is the first time I've heard of this as well! Is that really true!?" Aniue also asked suspiciously, which is reasonable as he had heard all the achievements of his Father's party but no one even mentioned anything about Myne's parents not even their names.
"I know it is a little hard to believe but Yeah, without a doubt, it's true," Faren nodded his head with a helpless smile, seeing no one in the room seemed to believe him.
"Father-in-law, can you tell me about it in more detail?"
As Myne asked that, Faren opened his mouth to say something but a sudden knock on the door interrupted everyone.
With a heavy sigh, Myne opened the door, and saw an old man in a luxurious white robe with golden lining and a big chef-like cap on his head, holding a golden staff studded with rubies of different colours, standing before him with a neighbourhood kind-hearted grandpa like smile on his face.
"Lord Myne, it's almost time, please follow me..." The head priest of the temple whom Myne recognised easily thanks to his high-key profile and a 10-meter-tall white stone statue at the entrance of the temple, which anyone who is not blind can never miss.
Myne nodded his head at the head priest and looked at the Faren, who gestured to him as if saying, "Follow the head priest we will talk later."
Sigh, it seems like Big Sis and I don't know everything about my parent, they really know how to hide secrets very well, at least I didn't expect something like this from Father, Myne thought helplessly but he soon put away his thought back of his mind and with a smile on his face, he politely replies, "Thanks for coming here personally, I will trouble you to lead the way..."
