Chapter 783: Grand Wedding
Under the full attention of the Demon Realm, the wedding day of the Fallen Angel Empire’s Royal Majesty Empress had finally arrived.
Almost all the lords and the empire’s upper cla.s.s people attended the wedding ceremony held in the morning. The Dark Shadow Empire and the b.l.o.o.d.y Empire also sent envoys to present gifts.
The whole ceremony was grand and splendid. The whole process was broadcast by magic television. However, Chen Rui, 1 of the protagonists as the party involved, was confused all the way. The royal wedding was not trivial, especially the supreme ruler of Royal Majesty Empress, so they must follow various steps, etiquette and rituals. The dizzy male protagonist had a vague memory of the specific details of how it was done, only remembering that it took 2 hours to dress beforehand.
‘Aguile’ who appeared in front of the public still wore a mask to remain mysterious, but this mask was a simplified version which only covered the eyes, revealing his nose and black hair. After the wedding ceremony was successfully completed, ‘Aguile’ officially became the prince consort of Empress Shea.
In fact, the prince consort was nothing more than an empress’ accessory. It was more of a symbol. In a sense, it was quite similar to the ‘chief toy boy’ for the ‘queen’. The Royal Majesty Empress had the right to cancel or replace him. Even if ‘Aguile’ was really the rumored king of Beelzebub, then this relations.h.i.+p also meant the ‘surrender’ of the Beelzebub Royal Family.
After the ceremony was the celebration. There were not only traditional banquets and b.a.l.l.s, but also 2 celebrations that could be called the main events.
The first was the ‘Empress Cup’ battle ball match held in the royal arena in the afternoon. Although the battle ball had been impacted by the magic game, its popularity had not diminished at all, especially since the 3 empires’ battle ball league was about to start. The Empress Cup was actually the most important warm-up match before partic.i.p.ating in the Demon Realm League.
The 2 teams facing each other were the Red Blood Team and the Flame Team. The elites selected from different parts of the team were equivalent to the ‘empire team’. The personal skills and abilities could be regarded as the top level at present, but they needed to be further adjusted in tacit understanding.
After a fierce and exciting match, the Red Blood Team defeated the Flame Team with 4-2. Since the battle ball was popular, the Demon Realm audience had a considerable level of appreciation. This high-level ball game was like a sumptuous treat which made the fans feast on it.
The second event was the large-scale concert, ‘Dream Night’ that would commence in the evening. The venue was also in the arena. This was the second concert held by the Demon Realm. After gathering countless popularity in the first concert, this concert was unprecedentedly popular. Numerous ‘fans’ came from all directions, including fans of the other 2 empires. The arena was once again packed. The tickets for the concert had long been sold out, and the black market prices had also skyrocketed to staggering heights. Fortunately, the Fallen Angel Empire was well prepared, adding large live screens in the plazas and many locations. They also sent a large number of soldiers to maintain order.
The 2 protagonists of the wedding ceremony today were also watching the concert, but not at the scene, but in the palace; to be precise, the royal bedroom.
There was no magic television in the royal bedroom, but a special 3D magic projection device which made one seemed to be on the scene when it was turned on.
“Our bridesmaid… is amazing, but this ‘The Beginning of the World’ seems a bit familiar?”
The bride and the bridegroom held hands and sat on the sofa looking at the figure of the woman wearing a veil playing music in the magical forest scene. In the elegant Quqin sound, the graceful figure walked in the mist, looking ethereal and mysterious.
“Uh, yeah, amazing.” Chen Rui sweated a little on his forehead. It is really amazing. How is this ‘The Beginning of the World’? It is clearly ‘The End of the World’. Madam Aunt really plays such a song at the celebration of the wedding ceremony.
There was a strange friends.h.i.+p between Isabella and Shea. Especially after the life and death battle with Obsidian, this friends.h.i.+p was stronger, but their implicit conflict also gave the blissful male protagonist headaches from time to time.
“Well, just treat it as ‘The Beginning of the World’…” Shea smiled knowingly, “I accepted this gift from her. I will give her a big gift for her wedding next time.”
Chen Rui wanted to spit out ‘an eye for an eye makes the whole world blind’, but obviously this was a very subtle type of ‘battle’ between women. It was better for the man to avoid meddling in. He poured 2 gla.s.ses of fruit wine and handed them to Shea.
“According to the rules of our hometown, newlyweds should cross arms to drink the cup of wine.”
Shea’s attention no doubt was diverted as she revealed a cautious expression. She turned off the projection, took the wine cup, and drank the wine with her arms crossed according to Chen Rui’s posture.
“According to the rules of my hometown, you are my official wife.” Chen Rui looked at Shea’s moving purple eyes and delicate red lips, “My Princess Royal, you are so beautiful.”
The name ‘Princess Royal’ seemed to bring Shea back to the time when the 2 met for the first time. The experience of acquaintance, knowing, love, life and death, and so on appeared in her mind. A warm feeling slowly spread in her heart. The usual cold complexion when she was on the throne had already melted, leaving only the warmth.
Naturally, both their lips merged together, and the warm feeling spread quickly from the intersection to their whole body.
“Wait a minute.” Shea suddenly opened her eyes and grabbed the hand that slid downward.
“No way. I waited for several years and can’t wait any longer. There is a saying in my hometown, the joyful night is always short. We must hurry up.” Chen Rui grinned and hugged her up in a standard princess hug as he walked toward the bed.
“Since you are a prince consort, you must listen to my orders.” Shea struggled a few times, and her voice suddenly softened, “Just tonight, okay? After that… you can do whatever you want.”
It was the first time that Chen Rui heard this pleading tone. His heart shook, and he finally let her down gently.
“Answer me a few questions first.” Shea pulled Chen Rui to sit on the bed.
“Uh… alright.”
“I have always wondered, what is the reason you formed the 3 empires alliance? Is it to unify the strength of the Demon Realm to deal with… or revenge on the human world in which you were originally in? You never seem to mention it to me. What happened before you came to the Demon Realm. As your wife, I want to know everything about you.”
Chen Rui thought for a while, “Before I came to the Demon Realm… My memory is fragmented, I just remember the super… The inheritance of the grand master and my former name, ‘Arthur’. It was like a dream. Just like how I gave up the name Arthur, I have given up everything in the past. The Demon Realm has my beloved woman, my best friend, and the business that I manage. This is my home. I will never leave here. As for the empire alliance… it has nothing to do with revenge. I just want to cancel the root of the Demon Realm’s war and really let the Fallen Angel Empire and the Demon Realm develop in peace. There are many ideas in it, including how we can defeat the 2 empires without bloodshed as well as some economic and military measures in these 2 years, but… these are not suitable for discussion on our wedding night.”
“What if I insist? Dear Your Highness Prince Consort, you said you will answer my questions.” Shea glanced at him with a smile.
Chen Rui’s face was bitter. No, it’s unscientific! The night is short, my girl. I would not agree if I had known about it earlier.
Shea smiled as she noticed his expression, “Okay, let’s change the question. How did you coax Alice on that outing? These days, I see her feeling very refreshed, which is completely different from the precious months’ listlessness. Moreover, she personally made a gift and gave it to me. Has my sister been successfully tricked by you?”
“How is it a success? Actually, I’m the loser, okay?” Chen Rui couldn’t help but shudder when he recalled the series of actions of the Royal Highness Little Princess after seeing through the ident.i.ty of ‘Aguile’ – swooped, hugged, hooped his neck and so on.
That day, Alice was crying and laughing.
That day, he walked back with Alice on his back.
That day, the 2 made a formal agreement.
No matter what ident.i.ty he was in the future, no matter what the relations.h.i.+p between the 2 was, he would always be forever by her side unconditionally.
With this earnest promise, Alice finally put aside the big burden in her heart. She no longer struggled with the 3-year or 2-year agreement. In fact, the long-term plan was set because the little loli had one of the most entangled things – I’m almost 17 years old… Why has there been no change in my height and appearance in these 2 years? Especially the chest…
I heard that when my sister was 15, she started…
Therefore, I must wait until I truly have the ‘hardware’ compet.i.tiveness! Then defeat sister, defeat Athena, defeat Kia…
Woo, speaking of Teacher Zola, when can I learn the quick magic of the big b.r.e.a.s.t.s?
(The above were the little loli random rant)
Seeing Chen Rui distracted, Shea pinched the soft flesh on his waist, “Hmph, no matter what, you can barely count as pa.s.s as Alice has regained vitality… By the way, a lady told me yesterday that although I’m the only woman of ‘Aguile’, that’s just a ‘subst.i.tute’ or ‘small account’. According to that, my ranking is last, is that correct?”
Chen Rui wanted to cry but he had no tears. He could say the name of ‘the lady of yesterday’ with his eyes closed. Can’t you stop causing the End of the World?
“The third question is, how many women do you plan to collect?” Shea made a difficult 360-degree rotation with the fingers pinched on his waist, which was the technique taught by ‘the lady’.
“Not anymore! Really! With you, I’m really completely satisfied.” Chen Rui reluctantly made an oath, “I swear by the name of Chen Rui, I will never have new women. If I violate …”
‘New’ women naturally exclude Royal Majesty Empress.
But the current harem is enough. If there are a few more, the blood sacrifice of the crystal harem will surely turn the male protagonist into a corpse. From now on, I shall be an honest person and have s.e.x in a down-to-earth manner.
After the oath was over, Shea had covered his mouth lightly, “Hmph! It’s just an empty oath, you just have to know it in your heart…”
Her smooth hands gently stroked his face, “The last question, the woman in front of you, whether she succeeds or fails, possesses or loses, are you willing to accompany her until the end of everything?”
Chen Rui looked into her eyes, “Of course, just like she has been with him.”
Shea’s purple eyes became hazy as she blushed as if she had drunk wine. She slowly lay down backward. Although she didn’t have a special posture, she looked very sultry.
“The question and answer time is over. Then, Sir Chen Rui, it is time for you to fulfill your prince consort obligations…”
It was said that when someone recalled afterward, this was the last ‘complete’ sentence from Her Majesty Empress that night.
TL: Who will be the one who gets married? Hmm…
