401 – Epilogue – Brightest Darkness 5
“Uh… ….”
“What should I say about this… ….”
“…… “It’s amazing.”
“…… I know.”
The knight commanders were speechless and staring blankly ahead. I didn’t expect my mouth to close, and my legs didn’t move as if they were nailed in place.
“Have you ever seen something like this, Minerva?”
“Never.” What about you, child?”
“It is the same for me.”
Not only Aurora, but Minerva and Caecilia, who were not usually surprised unless something really happened, seemed very surprised by the sight before their eyes. Aurora seemed slightly intimidated.
“Heh, hehehe. Kihihi…… Oh, what is it? “You went in again?!”
Nicks was alternating between the formal Nicks, informal Nicks, and Flor personalities.
When Flor forcibly brought out the personalities of Nyx, who spoke politely, and Nyx, who spoke informally, to come out, the two personalities, unable to withstand the intimidation that was being conveyed in front of their eyes, would hide again.
“Isn’t it the wedding of a saint? “This is how it should be.”
“The entire Holy Kingdom will be ready.”
“People will be packed all the way to the end of the sanctuary.”
“Rest assured, there is no one in the Holy Kingdom who would not do that.”
Only Floretta, Luna, Stella, and Selene showed expressions that this atmosphere was natural. The four of them were not surprised at all, but rather acted as if it was natural.
“…… “It’s a good thing, because if they knew my identity, they would have been in big trouble.”
Eclipse was looking down at the figure with a slightly ambiguous smile, saying that he had done well to hide his identity. He stroked his head a couple of times, telling him not to worry about such unnecessary things.
‘I almost got into big trouble.’
I was sweating coldly on the inside.
I almost called his name without thinking. If that were the case, it would not have been a grand wedding, but a grand climactic show in front of so many people that even covered the horizon. I was lucky that I didn’t have to show any shame.
“Are you ready?”
At my words, my girlfriends, each wearing wedding dresses matching their hair or eye colors, smiled brightly and came next to me. All of them were extremely revealing dresses.
Even Claudia’s dress, which was relatively healthy, exposed more area than it covered, and by Eclipse, it was no different from the piece of cloth she usually wore.
However, my girlfriends recognized it as a ‘wedding dress’, so I had a hard time finding a place to focus my eyes on the lack of exposure. When our eyes met, my girlfriends were very happy.
“Let’s go.”
It was finally time to take the final step.
The bell rang. Ten nuns dressed in sacred nuns’ attire were striking a bell as big as a decent building without looking out of place.
In response, the citizens of the Holy Kingdom who filled the sanctuary all kneeled down. It would have been impossible for ordinary bells to ring throughout the sanctuary, but this was the wedding of a saint.
Impossibility could not exist before the name of the saint.
All directions of kneeling were toward one place. A place where the sun and moon rise overhead, and a place where the living saint and his women entrust the Eucharist.
A place where the sun and moon meet, day and night meet, and clouds and stars pass by like a river in the sky.
Underneath that miracle, people were divided into two. Those who believed in the sun were settled in the solar realm, and those who believed in the moon were settled in the lunar realm without any disturbance.
The entire Holy Kingdom was divided into gold and silver, desperately hoping for just one.
Finally, the door to the mansion located in the exact center of the sanctuary opened, and the wind that I had prayed for appeared. I practiced for a month just for this day. The subjects of the castle bowed their heads in unison.
ㅡWitness the sky…… Glory be upon you…….
At the same time as the miracle of the living saint being imprinted in everyone’s eyes despite her bowing her head, the choir high in the sky began to sing her hymn, shedding tears of emotion.
The choir felt it even while singing the hymn. That this hymn would be her last. When all the music is over, my heart will explode with joy and I will die.
But it was still good. Because they were all women who were selected just for this day, after choosing again and again, and finally dozens more times. I have already prepared myself for death.
No, there was no need to say preparation. Because it was the ultimate honor.
At the wedding of a living saint, floating high in the sky, singing hymns, and then dying from joy, if that is not an honor, then what would be an honor? In fact, the expression ‘preparation’ rather than ‘resolution’ was more appropriate.
Preparation to gladly sacrifice this insignificant life for the saint and his women.
-The sun and the full moon will look down…….
Perfectly harmonized voices rang out toward the sky. There shouldn’t be any mistakes, and I didn’t intend to.
Over the past month, the choir’s sleep time has been less than 3 hours. It is based on a month, not a day. Everyone had been training and practicing hard just for this day, so it was time to show off the results.
The hymn soon spread throughout the sanctuary riding on thousands of layers of divine power.
Voices singing hymns were clearly heard in the ears of countless subjects of the Holy Kingdom, who were bowing their heads without any hesitation, from the center of the sanctuary to the ends.
“… ….”
Seongguk was not delighted. They didn’t even have the right to rejoice. They were insignificant beings who did not even deserve to show such happy emotions in this sacred place.
I just quietly bowed my head and prayed. May the sun and moon bless the living saint and her women. I hope that the blessing will last forever.
The countless people gathered in the sanctuary all felt the same way. Everyone knelt, everyone bowed their heads, everyone closed their eyes, and everyone prayed.
“… ….”
However, just because I closed my eyes and bowed my head, it didn’t mean I couldn’t see it.
I don’t know if it was the saint’s consideration, or the sun and moon’s consideration, but even though my eyes were closed, I could see the saint and his women walking along the road where day and night met with happy expressions.
Even with his eyes closed, he clearly saw the sun and the full moon shining brightly above the saint’s head and growing so big that they covered the entire sky. People shed tears without realizing it.
Even though I had been practicing for the past month to suppress my emotions and pray, even though I knew in my head that even the act of crying was blasphemous, I could not suppress the overwhelming emotions.
There are two miracles unfolding before our eyes right now.
– Cry as much as you want.
So people.
ㅡToday is a happy day.
When the saint’s voice rang in my head, I couldn’t bear it any longer. She fell to her knees, bowed her head, and cried like a child. No one in the Holy Kingdom was an exception.
All the preparations I had made over the past month, the moments where I washed my body eight times a day and spent the rest of the time just kneeling and praying, were all repaid with just one word.
The crying did not last long and stopped. This was because the saint and the priest continued to kiss. The cries of these miserable things could not be mixed with that ecstatic sight. Everyone desperately swallowed their tears.
And when the last person, an unidentified black-haired woman, kissed the saint, everyone in the crowd that had filled the horizon of her sanctuary had fainted.
It would have been fortunate if I had just fainted. As soon as the entire choir sang the last verse of the hymn, their hearts ruptured and they died.
With a smile of joy on his face, without a single trace of regret or regret.
– Wake up.
And he became a subject of the Holy Kingdom who experienced resurrection for the second time.
The choir that came back from death was confused at first, unable to understand what had happened, but soon after learning the truth, they were unable to control their joy and repeated the death and resurrection three or four more times.
Even though there was such a ‘minor’ incident, today was a happy day.
The wedding preparations in the Aeternum Empire were completely different from those in the Holy Kingdom of Raphaela.
As it was the emperor’s wedding, a national holiday was declared and preparations for the festival began, but unlike the Holy Kingdom, where everyone was full of thoughts of uniting and honoring the saint, the prevailing atmosphere was that it was a day of fun befitting the word festival.
Anyone who would act like Seongguk in the first place would have moved on to Seongguk a long time ago.
While the people of the empire were enjoying the festive atmosphere by taking advantage of the national holiday that was declared to last for as long as two weeks, the imperial palace was busier than ever.
Even the slightest mistake was met with disapproval, and everyone working in the imperial palace was required to look their best. Everyone in the hallway was standing at attention.
Luckily, Lana wasn’t on the list of people being asked to look sharp that day. This was because she was omitted from the preparations because Aurora had personally asked her to do ‘other important work.’
Of course, the other important thing was just chatting next to Aurora. This is consideration for Lana. Aurora was very satisfied to see Lana’s smiling face.
Lana was very satisfied when she saw her sister Laura’s happy smile.
“…… “It’s finally starting.”
“Finally, it’s only a matter of hours, Caecilia.”
The wedding at the imperial palace was held immediately after the wedding at the castle.
Everyone involved in the ceremony was busy, but the bride in particular seemed anxious and didn’t know what to do. I looked at the clock several times before the wedding started.
Delta said that they would hold the first night after finishing everything including the wedding in the Empire.
“…… “That’s too much, Delta.”
“No, why on earth is that?”
Anyway, the wedding held at the imperial palace was not large enough to fill the skyline with people like it was in the Holy Kingdom, but it was by no means inferior in splendor.
The difference this time was that the brides wore uniforms decorated with gold and jewels rather than wedding dresses that matched their hair or eye color.
It was good news for Delta, which had been in quite a bit of trouble due to lack of attention due to the exposure of the ‘wedding dress’ prepared by Seongguk.
Also, there was no officiating this time. This was because there was no one who dared to officiate for the Emperor, the Eternal Wizard, the Pope of the Sun, the Pope of the Moon, and the Living Saint.
The wedding, which took a month to prepare, spending money at the imperial palace, lasted for two full days. Meanwhile, some quite unexpected, or rather expected, guests came to Delta to congratulate them.
“Congratulations, Captain.”
They were the Knights of the Silver Dawn and the Knights of the Dark Vigil.
Laksia and other leaders of the Knights of the Dark Night came wearing only a rabbit ear headband and three stickers, which were ‘decorated with special care’.
Similarly, the regular members’ uniform, which was ‘decorated with extra care’, was a 100% transparent bunny girl with only a hint of coloring around the nipples and pubic area. In terms of exposure alone, it was no different from reverse Bunny.
The Jet Black Holy Night Knights wore uniforms, raised their rabbit ear headbands, and saluted the Knight Commander, making Delta’s expression subtle.
When all the turns were over, Delta disappeared into the portal with his women, who were now his wives. Women with very red cheeks were pulling Delta’s arms and urging him on.
Lana, who now knew what was going to happen in the future, saw her off with a happy smile.
Two days in the Holy Kingdom of Raphaela, and two days in the Aeternum Empire. After a wedding that lasted four full days, we arrived at the underwater mansion that Minerva had completed.
Even though the mansion was completely submerged in water, sunlight and moonlight shone through the windows. Minerva smiled and opened the window, enjoying the sight of us being surprised that no water was pouring out.
The knight commanders, Aurora, and Nyx, as if amazed, put their hands in the water that was not allowed inside the mansion right in front of the window and slapped it.
But the novelty did not last long. Because there were more important and provocative sequences left.
The women who dragged me to the huge bedroom on the top floor of the mansion all laid down together on a bed so huge that even if 14 people could lie down and roll around at the same time, there would still be a lot of space.
Then, one by one, she started taking off the wedding dresses she was wearing. More and more of her pale skin was revealed. When all that was left was underwear or nothing at all, Eclipse smiled and whispered.
“There’s only the first night left, are you?”
“Yes.”
I have too many memories of physical contact to call it the first night, but that’s not the definition of the word anyway.
I approached the wives who were already rubbing their thighs. As soon as I got near the bed, delicate fingers wrapped around my body and pulled me in.
The night lasted a very long time.
A few months, or more.
Maybe over a year.
“It’s finally tomorrow. Right? “I didn’t read the time wrong, right?”
“You’re right tomorrow, you. “You saw it correctly.”
Eclipse was standing right behind me with a benevolent smile, embracing my restless shoulders, and the other wives were sitting on the bed a little distance away, looking at me.
I sat in front of the 60-inch 8k monitor I had specially purchased for this moment, receiving thirteen pairs of gazes, nervously checking their gaze.
Now 30 seconds to go. There really isn’t much left. I waited, waited, and waited again. 30 Seconds felt like an eternity.
When the promised time finally arrived, with the first digit of the clock number changing and the last digit showing 0, I clicked on the newly added shortcut icon on the desktop with incredible speed.
The screen went dark for a moment with magnificent orchestral music, but soon after, text written in a gothic font appeared.
