Chapter 1: Gambling and Oaths
After a period of recuperation, finally, after experiencing the period of being confessed, confessed and her sister's youthful rebellion, Ariel finally ushered in her first major event after the holiday.
According to the date set before, today is Ariel's knighthood.
Unlike the last marquis, this time the ceremony of crowning the duke is much more grand.
Ariel even wondered if she was going to be emperor.
The road from outside the city to the palace was covered with a bright red carpet. Rows of heavily armed soldiers were already standing on either side, their weapons in hand, staring straight ahead.
In other words, no matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like a knighthood, isn't this the kind of formation that only existed in aristocratic weddings before?
You're sure it's not a trap set by Jack and Loise, pretending to be knighted, and then suddenly asking Xerry to put a ring on him and announcing to the rest of the city that he's married.
When the time comes, I can't even refute it.
So you must be thinking too much.
"Congratulations, Ariel. Because this time was more important, Louise and Anne were dressing up together.
But Anne is more about rubbing oil than dressing up.
"From today onwards, Ariel is a duke, and you are the first duchess, huh?"
"Well, it's fine, but before that, take your hand down. ”
"Not good. Anne said and began to play with Ariel's hair again.
This time, Louise used all kinds of excuses, such as something that was too shocking last time, so this time she had to be more conservative, and didn't go out to seal Ariel in a pink erotic lingerie like she did last time.
The double golden ponytail was combed into a straight hair, and a white bow was worn on the head.
Since Ariel doesn't have any breasts...... So instead of choosing those breast-selling dresses, Louise focused more on the focus of reflecting that Ariel is Lori.
After tying the laces of the little brown boots. Louise looked up in satisfaction.
"Yes, yes, although it is not as sexy as last time, but cuteness is also an attribute. Louise circled around Ariel twice. "Girls should keep changing their attributes. ”
Sure enough, you dressed me up with the idea of dressing me up as a doll?
"Wow, Ariel is so cute. Anne screamed and pounced: "It's just a waiting for a doll, I'll give out 100,000 gold coins." ”
"Two hundred thousand. Louise began to heckle from the sidelines: "Anne, don't forget where you got your pocket money." ”
"Hmph, I'm not afraid. Anne completely ignored the fact that the woman in front of her was her mother: "My newspaper makes a lot of money every month. ”
That gossip magazine?
But it's all about girls' candid shots, photos and something. There are really a lot of men who buy it.
"I won't sell a million, ah no, why should I sell myself?"
"Now, Ariel. Anne's expression changed suddenly, as if she had thought of something bad. "Anyway, Ariel was promoted so quickly, will she snatch her brother's throne?"
So you're worried about this?
“...... I wouldn't have snatched it at all, and I don't think there's any precedent for an empress. ”
"I think Ariel is a princess. Although not from our empire. ”
Anne still remembers the previous events vividly. Ariel doesn't seem to be an ordinary human, she seems to be the princess of the mysterious vampire clan. If I'm not mistaken, they should have a very long life, maybe Ariel is already a lot older than herself.
"Now, Ariel, if I had gone to heaven earlier, you would have remembered me all the time, wouldn't you?"
Why do you say all of a sudden?
Indeed, it seems that his life will be long. At that time, he may really have to face the death of his friend, which is something that Ariel does not want to see or think.
So Ariel has been trying to avoid this question.
"It's still early, Anne, what are you doing so unlucky? Today is the day I sealed it. Ariel smiled reluctantly. Suppressed the uneasiness. "Now, even if you are a human being, you can gain a long life through cultivation. But Annie, if you meet any better girl, don't forget about me, right?"
"How could there be? Where else in the world could there be a more perfect girl than Ariel?" Anne didn't seem to have thought about it at all.
Anyway, you're really confident in how I look.
"Yes, Ariel is the most beautiful girl I've ever seen. Louise also said: "When you grow up, you must be a great beauty who surpasses your mother." ”
Aiya's mother?
used to be in those fragments in my head. Ariel had met Aya's mother.
So, Louise also met Aya's mother?
"I mean if. Ariel said, "What if there is? The world is big, and it is not strange that something has happened." ”
“......”
Anne didn't answer, just looked at Ariel there.
It seems to be cold, did you say something wrong?
Just as Ariel wondered if she was using some jokes or something to lighten the mood. Anne suddenly stood up with her hands clenched into fists.
That's the posture of swearing.
"Ariel, if you doubt it, then I'll swear it. ”
"Hey, I didn't mean that......"
Annie: What's wrong? Suddenly it's more serious.
"I, Anne Lauste, swear by in the name of the Goddess. Anne ignored Ariel's words and continued to speak in a firm tone.
"As long as my soul is immortal, I will always love Ariel. ”
"Hey ......"
The topic has gone off track, how can it be related to love or not? If this spreads, it will be the rhythm of the headlines.
"Even if the body dies, I will always remember it. ”
"Okay, okay. In desperation, Ariel had to wait for Anne to finish her vow.
"Anyway, Annie, what's wrong with you today, swearing and swearing, I'm just kidding.
How could you possibly forget me?"
"It's just a little scared. Anne smiled: "I'm afraid that I will regret it when the time comes, so I will say it first." ”
"What can make you a gay man repent?"
"But Ariel?" Anne then came up again while Ariel was still in a daze, "I behaved so well today, can I stay at night?"
"So that's what you're trying to do?"
Give me back my impressions.
