Luna sat on the second floor of Fabricia House, looking sideways at the sky. It's been two weeks since she's tried to escape, but it seems like it's just happened. She thought countless times that if she had been more cautious at that time, not letting the little brother at the Earl of Ross Hotel see her wallet, and not trying to book a room with 200 crowns, would she have been able to enjoy life at the foot of the Genting Snow Mountain?

No, no, you can't do it at all.

Something whispered in Luna's ear. Luna didn't want to admit it, but she knew that the voice had a point. She grew up in the Mage Tower since she was a child, and had little experience of living in this world independently, and with her ability, being able to get out of Roseville without being eaten by others was already the best achievement.

"My lord, His Majesty the Emperor has sent a full set of dresses, we have ironed them, do you want to try them?" Lavielle stands behind Luna in her gorgeous gown. Mei Mei held an equally ornate crown in her hand, and the top of the crown was even inlaid with a small pyroxene spirit, and looked at Luna with a smile.

Luna stood up, silent. Lavielle and Mei Mei seemed to know what she meant, and silently stepped forward to help her undress off her body, revealing Luna's beautiful figure.

On the third day after finding Luna, His Majesty the Emperor betrothed her to Lieutenant General Joe, the commander of the Sixth Legion who captured Strandwood, the capital of the Kingdom of Tulucas. McFhairy. Luna had heard of him, a thirty-nine-year-old general with a wife and two children, the daughter of a certain Grand Duke, who had helped him a lot in his career. But His Majesty's order is not to be disobeyed, is he betrothing Luna to Joe? The day before, the Grand Duke had offered to His Majesty the Emperor to dissolve the marriage contract, and His Majesty the Emperor naturally readily agreed, and gave the Grand Duke some land as compensation.

"My lord, they say that General Macfalie is very gentle and very kind to his wife, and if you follow him, you will not suffer."

"Yes, yes, it is said that his previous wife was unwilling to dissolve the marriage contract at all, if it weren't for His Majesty the Emperor's hint, it is estimated that her money-hungry archduke father would not take the initiative to mention it."

Lavielle and Maymay try to comfort Luna, but the words are uncomfortable for Luna. She used to like Dawn? Prince Gibson, but her mentor wants her to marry Scott. Just when she reluctantly accepted the marriage to Scott, her mentor was suddenly assassinated, throwing the entire Mage Tower to the greedy and perverted Paul? Gibson. Now, no one remembers her engagement to Scott, and everyone in the city is talking about her and Joe tomorrow? Machairy's wedding. It was as if that was the best place for her.

Luna is immersed in a sense of self-pity and has no appetite for words. Laviel and Meme helped her try on clothes, and after changing them, they went out in silence, leaving her alone. Luna pulls out the copy of "The Dragon Hunter" from the bookshelf, flips through a few pages, but still can't read it.

Just then, someone pushes open the door to her room, and Luna follows the voice, only to find that it is someone she hadn't expected.

Tritheistic Archbishop, her former fiancé, St. ? Scott.

"Scott, why are you here? How did you get in here? Luna, surprised, but not disgusted. At this moment, seeing her former fiancé the night before her wedding, for some reason, she suddenly felt a sense of relaxation.

"It's not as hard to get in as you think", St. Scott glanced at Luna, looked around the room, and found a stool to sit across from her.

"Luke? Has Brewster lost his magic? ”

"Huh?"

Luna was a little surprised by Scott's direct question, and she opened her mouth slightly, not knowing how to answer. As she and Brooklyn agreed, for Luke? Brewster's state, she can't reveal a single thing to anyone.

"I know if you don't say it," Scott seemed to see something from Luna's reaction, "At first, I just suspected that on the day of the Fire Festival, our church's teleportation circle suddenly failed, and I lost contact with the Longquan Mage Tower, so I felt that something was wrong. Later, our marriage contract was not executed, and no one from your mage tower came to explain the matter, so I suspected that something was wrong with Lord Luke. Recently, the men I sent to Rennes City came back and said that there was a problem with the teleportation circle there, and I knew something was wrong. Yesterday His Majesty the Emperor announced to the whole city that you would be betrothed to that McHairy, and I am almost certain that Luke? Lord Brewster, and our St. Brewster? Together, Lord Egerd had a problem. I don't know much about magic, but I've done a lot of history. Luna, tell me, is this the third great demon wave? ”

Luna reached out and covered her lips, not knowing what to say. Scott was right, but she couldn't tell. Luke? Brewster's status is unknown, and he is the last protection of the Mage Tower, and no matter what, she can't admit anything.

"If you don't say it, forget it, I can understand you", Scott stood up and paced quickly around the room, "Luna, have you ever thought about it?" Why did the Third Great Devil Tide appear at this time? Why does it have to destroy our lives? Who is behind the fate that even the Grand Magus can't resist? ”

Luna looked at Scott and listened to his chatter, the surprise in her eyes turning into confusion. But no matter what her mood was, Scott didn't stop talking.

“…… So, I think the doctrine of the Tritheistic Religion is problematic. In our teachings, God Allen led the gods, created the world, and lived in the age of the gods. After that, Father Mani felt that the world was monotonous, turned mud into spirit, and created three major races: elves, dragons, and humans. The Holy Son Chur was born among the human race, and he couldn't bear to see the human race being bullied and enslaved, and he incargated the world and filled every corner of the air with magic power, so that there was an age of magic. In such a doctrine, there is no explanation for the Third Great Tide! It's even more impossible to make the Magus lose its magic! If the doctrine of real things cannot be explained, does it mean that there is something wrong with the doctrine itself? ”

"The ......"

Luna doesn't know much about Scott, but Scott today isn't normal from any point of view. She nodded slightly, wondering if she should call someone up.

"Forget it, I told you that you don't understand", Scott suddenly sighed and stopped talking about his thinking process, "I now think that the teachings of the Tritheistic Religion do not touch the truth, and above the three gods, there must be a god on God, and I call him Orn." Whether it is the first Great Demon Tide, the Second Great Demon Tide, or the Third Great Demon Tide, they are all tests of the three gods, dragons, elves, and humans. If the test is not satisfied, Orn will destroy the era in which that race lives. Only by following the teachings of the god Eun and washing away sins in a limited life can one go to the sanctuary after death, where magic still exists, and humanity is well fed, and everyone is a great magister......"

"You...... Trying to create new doctrines? Luna finally understands Scott's words, but she would rather she doesn't. What Scott talked about always made her shudder.

"Not the creation of doctrines, but the hearing of the truth!"

Saint? Scott paused, stood still, and looked at Luna.

"The cultists were horrified by the loss of the communication circle, and they began to question the doctrine of the three gods. I must save the doctrine of the three gods, the gods of the gods are not perceptible, but the legend of the destruction of the world is real. Seeing you today, I know that the third great tide has arrived, Paul? Gibson's war will destroy the world, this is the punishment of the end, no one is immune! ”

Luna quietly clenched the handkerchief in her hand, not knowing how to respond, or how to answer. In her world, tomorrow's wedding was pretty much all there was to it, and she simply couldn't understand Scott's purpose and position in such a fanatical attempt to come up with a new doctrine.

"Forget it, you don't understand."

Scott finally quieted down, and he was silent, looking at Luna. Luna looked away and looked at the ground. Leaning slightly, Scott stepped forward, as if trying to touch Luna, but Luna dodged her.

"I'm leaving, so I'll do it myself."

Seeing Luna's resistance, Scott turns to leave. His movements are decisive and swift, without a hint of nostalgia. For some reason, Luna remembered the first time she went to Scott's prom, where the man seemed to have the stars in his eyes as he stepped out of the carriage.

——————————

The next day, the wedding took place as scheduled.

Luna, the archmage's first apprentice? Brewster, who will marry the national hero, captured Lieutenant General Joe Brownwood, the capital of the Kingdom of Tulucas? McFhairy. In order to celebrate, on this day, the whole city is closed, and His Majesty the Emperor feasts the ministers and also distributes gifts throughout the city. Because Joe? While McFaley is still fighting on the front lines, Luna will be the bride and will attend the wedding to be celebrated by the whole city. Archmage Luke? Brooklyn, the director of Brewster's Mage Tower? Arquette, who will be the Mage Tower representative, will send Luna from the Mage Tower to Joe? At Macfarey's home, she awaits her husband's return with honors.

"Teacher, I don't want to go."

Downstairs in Fabria House, Luna in full costume? Brewster stood in front of Brooklyn, his eyes lowered. Her voice was soft, and there was obvious reluctance in her words. Leaving here today means that the intersection of her life and this tower has come to an end. From tomorrow, her name will be changed to Luna? McVerick completely distanced herself from this tower and the first half of her life.

"I don't want you to go, but you know, there's nothing we can do."

Brooklyn was also dressed in the same costume, and she even carried a small ceremonial staff adorned with glittering pyroxenes. Brooklyn reached out and gently brushed Luna's hair, brushing her palm against the girl's face.

"Remember, kid, never give up hope."

Luna nodded, letting Brooklyn veil her. Brooklyn walked in front, and Lavielle and Meme helped Luna into the royal car that was already waiting. The car will pass through half of the Upper Town, enter the Imperial Palace, where it will meet His Majesty the Emperor and receive gifts and blessings, and then pass through the other half of the Upper City to arrive at Joe? Macfay's home on the east side of Uptown. There, the ceremony of the wedding will officially begin.

Luna sat in the car, distraught. She couldn't accept the fact that she was about to marry a woman, but she didn't know how she could change it. She remembered Scott last night, and for some reason she was a little envious of him. Outside the window, the wheels creaked, and Luna could hear the cheers and whistles of the populace. In their eyes, their marriage may just be a reason and excuse for celebration, as for whether they are happy or not, happy or not, who cares?

It took about two hours to get from the Mage Tower to the palace, and Luna met Emperor Paul at the palace? Gibson. Because of Roswell's customs, the veil on Luna's face can only be lifted by her husband, so Luna's vision is hazy throughout the blessing and gift-giving process. She could hear the emperor's voice and vaguely see the emperor's movements. The emperor gave her a plot of land and a manor house in the southern suburbs of Roseville as a dowry, and gave her the title of Grand Duke of "Lonan". In Roswell's aristocratic system, the title Grand Duke has the right to use the royal crest in the family coat of arms, and to enjoy the treatment of a member of the royal family in rituals, visits, and official events, which is a rare royal honor. Moreover, because the title Grand Duke has been favored by the royal family, if it is a woman, she can not change her surname after marriage.

Grand Duke Ronan, Luna? Brewster? Is this your generosity?

Luna smiled self-deprecatingly, thanking His Majesty the Emperor for the favor. After that, she drove out of the palace in a car again, through the East Upper Town, and into Joe? The door to the Macfalie house.

Joe? McFauly's father, Hart? Machairy is just a viscount, and the mansion where they held their wedding was still the emperor's reward for Joe some time ago? McFauly's capture of Strongwood's bounty has just been renovated. Tritheistic Archbishop St. Scott served as a witness to the marriage, and as if he had never known Luna, he took her and Joe? McFaley's parents, and Brooklyn who came with the car? Arquette, went through the whole process of the wedding.

By the afternoon, the wedding canon, which required Luna's participation, was over. A couple of newlyweds will be drinking because of Joe? The reason why McHairy has not yet returned will be held at the Suanna Palace when his class is triumphant. Luna, as the new wife, has fulfilled all her obligations on the wedding day.

"My lord, what do I think of that Hart? Master McFalie is very kind to you, and his wife is a very good character, and you will surely have a good time! ”

Raviel and Meme accompany her to the mansion as a gift from the Mage Tower to Luna. The two of them chatter as they untie Luna's complicated clothes and accessories. Luna was tired and in no mood to talk. She let the two maids help her change into simple clothes, and then left the room to dine with her husband's father and mother.

"I can't believe that our family Joey is so blessed to marry the apprentice of Lord Archmage Brewster, and it is an honor for you to come to us, Lord Luna. If you have any questions about this, please feel free to let us know, we will definitely make your life happy and comfortable! ”

Hart? McFauly and his wife Jenny? McFalie obviously didn't know what was going on at the Mage Tower, and they were very respectful and polite to Luna, and they were very nice. This eases Luna's depression slightly. She tried to chat with the two old men, and found that they also had some common topics, and she felt a little more relaxed. But just when the family had just adjusted the atmosphere of the meal, someone rushed into the restaurant regardless of etiquette. Judging by his attire, he should be a soldier.

"Viscount Hart, the latest news from the front, the Sixth Legion has been defeated in the province of Anta in the Republic of Negro, and the Legion headquarters has been scattered by enemy cavalry, Joe? Lord McFfee's life and death are unknown! ”

"What...... What the?! ”

Hart? The knife and fork in Macfaery's hand landed on the gilt silver plate with a crisp sound. The old man stood up slightly and looked at the soldier in front of him with a look of disbelief.

"You...... You repeat? ”
