Chapter 708: Wedding
"Do you just watch him become someone else's husband and do nothing?" After sending off the nobles who had come to greet them, Old General Abydis and Bridget came to a corner of the hall. He counted his daughter dissatisfied, "Do you really plan to be his lover for the rest of your life?" ”
"What's wrong with that?" Brigitte said disapprovingly, waving her hand to Sally who was looking from afar, "Your daughter is not such a conservative woman, and I have no interest in the bondage of marriage. On the contrary, I think it's better for me. I like him, he likes me, isn't that nice? ”
"Humph!" Old Abidis let out a heavy sigh, but he was helpless. His daughter has grown up and dared to talk back to him, and he obviously feels that his daughter no longer takes him seriously.
Alas, sighing in my heart, once upon a time, where was there such a thing as that kid here?
Alfred looked at the elves in the corner of the hall. Although there is still a certain amount of dissatisfaction with their presence here, this dissatisfaction has gradually been eliminated.
Compared to the small number of orcs in the team of Tairosos, the elves were still acceptable to him.
Alfred Abydis was already a bit tall, which made it easy for him to see the heads of a group of people in the hall, all chattering and smiling.
But the only thing that displeased him was that he succumbed to his daughter's reputation and left her with the boy who never looked at him properly. It was to get his daughter to snatch Locke from Whitemayne and let them marry and start a family. But what he didn't expect was that he actually hooked up with the princess again!! He became the princess's husband!
The princess's renunciation of the throne of Lordaeron has been known to all the lords and nobles of Lordaeron, and he is about to become the king of this country!
Is... The Holy Light must be blind!
Old Abidis thought indignantly in his heart, this guy's conduct is simply a disgrace to the paladin!
However, before old Abidis could scold enough in his heart, his daughter mended the knife on the side, "One of the main reasons why he made you so angry is that he did what you didn't do!" It's as simple as that..."
"It's not a good feeling to be surpassed by your juniors, isn't it?"
Brigitte looked mischievously at his father, and old Abidis looked constipated, snorted and turned his head to the side...
Hey hey laughed at her father, and Bridget turned her head to look at everyone in the cathedral.
She saw what Hudson was talking to Mormont, Nolis with a serious look on her face, and Sally talking to Shiloh. I saw Viscount Quat worriedly talking to the nobles around him. Eventually, she saw the elves in a corner of the hall out of place with their surroundings...
Everyone is waiting for the main character to appear.
A cheerful trumpet sounded, and everyone in the hall began to move, standing in the middle of the aisle. Bridget walked with his father to the other side of the priesthood played by Fairbanks, and at some point Locke had already appeared on the high platform, waiting for the bride to arrive.
Squeak...
The wide cathedral door was opened from the outside to the inside, and the sunlight instantly shone into the somewhat dimly lit hall, and everyone tried to look there.
Kalia stood alone in the doorway in an armless khaki dress with intricate patterns and carvings, a red woollen carpet in front of her, which stretched to the pulpit where Locke stood. Originally, her elders were supposed to escort her through the last red carpet before she got married, but there was no one in the Minehir family anymore.
Walking quickly along the sidewalks to the left and right of the cathedral, Baron Tyrosus came to the entrance of the main gate. As he walked, he briefly straightened his gown and moved his arms, then stood at the princess's side, smiled at her and deepened his arms.
It stands to reason that even if someone is found to be the princess's elder, Tairosus should not go, and old Abidis may be more suitable than him, but the princess appointed him, and Farbanks, as the officiant of the wedding, naturally has no opinion.
Luo Yao looked at the princess at the gate, he swallowed and foamed unconsciously, this is the first time he has married in two lifetimes, and he is very nervous!
Here, Kalia looked coldly at the people in the hall, and hesitated for a while.
"Don't be nervous, Your Highness Princess," said Tairossos, looking down in Kalia's ear with concern, "I'm here, don't be afraid. ”
Kalia squeezed out a smile and stretched out her right arm to wrap her arm around Tyrossos's left, and the two of them walked slowly towards the position of the pulpit Locke. Behind him, the door to the church was slowly slammed shut. Kalia took a few breaths and looked at the people on both sides of the red carpet who were welcoming them a little flustered.
She saw the nobles who had visited her and their ladies and ladies, and they looked at her with envy. She saw Locke's squire, Ben, saluting her respectfully.
Moving forward at a steady pace, this road has been two-thirds of the way.
She saw Shiloh's warm and encouraging gaze, and she saw Sally bow her head and make a gesture of blessing. I saw Bridget's excited face, I saw Noris's wary gaze looking around, and I saw the Grand General Abidis Sr. bowing respectfully to her.
In just a few steps, she would step up the steps to the pulpit. Kalia's heart suddenly beat violently, and she even had some difficulty breathing.
She's so nervous!
She felt that every gaze around her looked at her as if she was going to strip her naked, making her feel as uncomfortable as a cockroach crawling all over her body.
As she walked towards the pulpit with the hem of her skirt in her left hand, she saw Locke's warm smile on it, which warmed her heart for no reason. It seems that in the dark forest, there is a person who can be relied on for her.
She almost removed her hand from Tyrosos' left arm and reached out to Locke...
Burning candles were lit near the pulpit, and they were divided into three rows, upper, middle, and lower, lighting up the darkness. Guiding Princess Kalia to Farbanks' side, Tyrosus looked Locke up and down a few times with a strange look, then turned and walked down the steps.
Locke didn't pay attention to Tairossos's actions, after all, he was playing the identity of Kalia's elder at this moment, and it was normal to have this kind of look. In fact, he didn't have the time to care about this, and he was also nervous about getting married for the first time.
Facing the tide of undead has never made him so nervous....
Finally standing by Locke's side, before she could turn to face the people below, Kalia turned her head slightly and pursed her lips and smiled secretly at Locke. Locke had a cloak in his left arm, and in order not to be seen by the people below, he could only look at Kalia solemnly and wink at him.
The officiant of the cameo wedding, as the representative of the Church of the Holy Light today, Fairbanks put his hands together on his abdomen and looked at Locke with a serious expression, "You can now put a cloak on the bride and put her under your protection." ”
Hearing Farbanks' words, Kalia immediately turned around and handed her back to Locke. Locke glanced down at the thick golden knitted cloak in his hand, unfolding it and draping it carefully over Kalia's bare shoulders.
After doing all this, the two of them turned together to face each other and looked solemnly at Fairbanks in front of them.
"Ladies and gentlemen, hereby solemnly declare the marriage of Kalia of the House of Minahir and Locke of the House of Harvey, in the presence of the Light and the world."
"From now on, they are one body, one mind, one soul, forever!"
"Anyone who interferes in their marriage will be mercilessly cursed."
Hearing Fairbanks' expressionless words, Brigitte exhaled disdainfully. Strictly speaking, she is the third party, and the real heroine is Sally!
Thinking of this, Bridget turned her head to find Sally in the crowd, who was whispering something to Shiloh. Shrugging, Bridget felt unwanted about her worries...
Holding Kalia's sweaty left hand with his right hand, Locke joined her in turning to look at the crowd below. He slowly raised Kalia's hand in the air, "I want to witness our love through a kiss!" ”
As soon as Locke said that, Lacaria took her in his arms and kissed her red lips. The cathedral burst into warm, long-lasting applause.....

Before the wedding was over, the guests began to walk slowly towards the City Garden in the Druid district.
"It's a bit too much, don't you think?" Sir Mormont and Shiloh came together, and he had a different opinion about the cost of Locke's wedding today.
Today, the whole of Iva is indeed a sea of joy, with drinks such as bread and liquor for free access in every community. All the taverns and inns were crammed with people, but half of all the spending was credited to Locke's account.
As Locke's staff, or steward, or something. Mormont was very concerned about this, because at the end of the day, a lot of gold would be spent, and this amount would be staggering!
In charge of these preparations was Archprosecutor Shiloh, who was in charge of logistics and finance, and she smiled and glanced up at Mormont with a smile on the corner of her mouth, "I think it's very appropriate." ”
"Proportionate what?" Mormont stepped forward to the left to stop Shiloh.
Shiloh looked up, "The expected luxury." ”
"People who pay for this extravagance don't want the wedding to last too long." Mormont turned around and Shiloh continued to walk forward, "And this one who pays the bill happens to be us. ”
"Then you'll have to enjoy some food or something today, or you'll feel like you've lost a lot," Shiloh replied with a smile. "I don't know what you're complaining about, you probably don't know the actual wealth that Lord Harvey has, and all the costs of Iva today may be half of Eva's gold minerals..."
"So you mean that we can waste money at will?" Mormont still disapproves of this extravagance. "I've heard that Lord Harvey and the Kurtilas have a trade negotiation coming soon, which includes a plan to build a large number of warships. And we will eventually go on an expedition to the Nordson continent, you don't know, what is the war, we have to prepare...."
"Sir Mormont, I'm not just Lord Harvey's treasurer," Shiloh paused to look at Mormont. "I'm also Lord Locke's logistics officer, and I've prepared almost every military supply since the Crusaders have been fighting. No one knows the logistics and finances of Lord Harvey better than I do, so don't worry! ”
Shiloh smiled and waved to Mormont, "Lord Locke's finances are absolutely healthy, and the health is beyond your imagination. When you really become Lord Harvey... Prime Minister, I will report to you at that time what I have. So now...."
"Let us go and sit down in the garden and wait for the luncheon to begin, for it is not good for the king and queen to wait a long time."
