Chapter 112: Before Marriage
In the Heelman kingdom, daughters often required a large dowry to marry. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ο½ο½ο½Uο½Eγ ο½ο½ο½ο½
When a man marries a wife, he does not need a bride price, and even the cost of the wedding is paid by the woman.
It's just that when he reaches the status of Rennes, money is completely reduced to something outside his body.
Seeing Andrew's excited face, Wren pursed his lips in disdain.
"The seventh-order demon core alone has a small box!" Andrew said enviously.
Wren looked slightly stunned, and then said, "Then don't hurry up and bring it." β
......
The dowry sent by Watson was indeed rich, which made Wren quite tempted.
Among the most valuable were a box of forty-eight seventh-order demon cores, a seventh-level witchcraft called the Wind Boots, and two animal skin scrolls inscribed with models of seventh-order witchcraft.
Seeing these things, Wren almost thought that this Duke was really a good person who valued love and righteousness.
It is obviously impossible for a good person to sit in the seat of the deacon of the Wizarding Alliance.
Therefore, Wren was always wary of him.
The news of Wren's imminent marriage to Offne was publicized in the province of Lema.
Even in the face of the threat of blood mist, this incident still aroused the curiosity of the public.
The people of Giant Bear Town were proud to talk about this to outsiders.
The Earl's Court was filled with joy.
The old butler Cassie always had a smile on his face, and in his opinion, it was a very face-saving thing for his earl to be able to marry the pearl of Duke Finger's palm.
The only thing that made him occasionally show a sad look was Heidi, who never woke up.
The Duke's Palace specially sent a group of ceremonial personnel to cooperate with Wren in preparing for the marriage.
Under the fiddling of these people, Wren feels like a doll.
But he had to cooperate, because he understood that the good-looking Duke was by no means a good man, and it was best not to disobey him until he had the strength to fight him.
The day before the wedding, Wren took time out to go to Heidi's yard.
He was wearing a black aristocratic robe, and his eyes looked at the obscure figure in the middle of the sea of fire, and murmured, "Little Heidi, my brother will get married tomorrow." β
"The bride is Ovne...... The wedding was nothing more than a fake ceremony, but ...... When exactly are you going to wake up? β
In a trance, he saw the sea of fire tremble.
This made his eyes froze suddenly, and he looked carefully, and waited for a long time, but he couldn't notice any other movement.
"Was it just dazzled?" Wren frowned hesitantly, he took a deep look at the fire and walked towards his bedroom.
Tomorrow, there are more elaborate rituals waiting for him.
Perhaps, there are other unknown events to come.
Next.
It was dawning, and there was a knock on Wren's door.
With a stroke of his mind, he let the door open automatically.
Cassie appeared outside the door, flanked by a group of ceremonial staff from the Duke's Palace.
Wren stretched and let the men fiddle.
Half an hour later, he appeared outside the Earl's Court, dressed in new clothes.
Wren at this moment is very different from his usual him.
After some simple makeup, the edges and corners of his face were more distinct, his demeanor was calm, and he had more aristocratic temperament than before.
He wears a purple knight's uniform, a bowler hat, and a one-handed sword hanging from his waist.
This outfit adds a bit of heroism to him.
This is the groom costume of the Hillman kingdom.
The Earl's Court was lit up with lights, and many guests came with gifts.
Wren rode on a white horse and led the convoy of Earl's Court to meet the door.
According to custom, the groom does not need to go to his fiancΓ©e's house to greet him, but waits at the door of his house.
Andrew rode on the back of another horse and whispered to Wren, "My lord, how long will it take, I didn't have such trouble when I got married." β
"Shut up!" interrupted him with a loud shout.
The one who spoke was the head of the ceremonial team, a man named Mark.
Mark wore a noble robe, and his hair was meticulously groomed, as shiny as if he had been licked by a horse.
He was a minor nobleman in the city of Sein, but he was very famous in the whole province of Lema, because he was once praised by the king as the nobleman who knew the most etiquette!
Mark has always been proud, and he is envious and jealous of Wren, a nouveau riche nobleman, especially when the other party can marry Ovni, who fascinates him, which makes him even more jealous.
He understood who he was, so he didn't dare to express his dissatisfaction. But for Wren's subordinates, he didn't have a good face at all.
Wren frowned and glanced at the somewhat girly guy, and Andrew pouted.
"Pay attention to your appearance, since the Duke has entrusted me with such an important matter, you must do as I say!" Mark said with a cold face.
"Today is a very holy day, and no one can make a mistake!"
Wren shook his head speechlessly.
His gaze swept over the stone pillar forest in the distance, and his heart was uneasy.
While everyone was waiting, a cloud of smoke suddenly appeared in the distance.
All the people who greeted the relatives stared at it, and they could all see that it was a group of knights.
Getting closer, Wren saw the identity of the knights.
"Why did she run back?" Andrew wondered, his gaze swept to Wren, and a hint of complexity flashed in his eyes.
"My lord, I heard that you got married today, so I rushed back immediately. After the group of knights came closer, Zhuang Senni said, who was ahead.
"Congratulations, sir!" said the knights behind him at the same time.
Most of these people were Wren's former personal guards, and they knew him relatively well.
Mark's face was already very ugly.
Wren smiled and waved his hand: "You guys go back to the mansion first." β
Watching those knights leave, Mark couldn't help but whisper: "Hmph, a group of guys with no quality, it's really a hillbilly in a small place." β
His voice was soft, but the Wren and Andrew beside him were not ordinary people.
Both of them didn't look good.
This is clearly a curse on them.
Andrew's hand tightened in grip of the sword, and he cast an inquiring look at Wren.
Wren shook his head with a wry smile.
In any case, this Mark represents the Duke's Palace at the moment, and he has to give him some face.
Moreover, although he is arrogant, he does not sin to death, and Wren is not in the habit of killing people at every turn.
On the contrary, look at Andrew, this guy is really a character who cuts with a knife without saying a word.
Andrew glanced at Mark contemptuously at Mark and said coldly, "You're in luck!"
Mark didn't know that his words were heard by the two, and looked at Andrew inexplicably, and was about to scold, when he suddenly saw a strong momentum erupt from Andrew.
Mark was almost scared to pee in an instant.
Fortunately, this momentum was only fleeting, and it didn't make Mark ugly.
However, he finally looked at this "hillbilly" with a strong fear in his eyes.
After all, he was just an ordinary person with a bit of information, who was carried away by jealousy before, and thought that he could do whatever he wanted on behalf of the Duke, but he forgot that the two in front of him were real wizards!
