172 – days remaining – 1
The wedding day was busy from morning.
First of all, I have to prepare to receive guests.
“Uhahahaha!! I didn’t know the day would come when I could see the sage’s marriage!”
The first to come were the Dwarves of Dwarven City. There were quite a few dwarves behind Marax, who joked that it was hard to stop them all from coming.
Is it dry…?
Anyway, they went in, and Leo, the king of the beastmen, arrived with the beastmen.
“Marriage. It’s really good. Have a good life.”
He smiled and entered, followed by the elves including Lorelia.
They and the Chungin tribes, the minor dwarf races and even the Lizardmen.
After the heterogeneous races came in one after another, the humans began to come.
“I’m sorry, but I wish you happiness.”
The Queen made the procession herself. Standing beside her is Lucille adorning herself in a red dress.
And now it was Wheeloth, who was living in the kingdom.
when receiving their congratulations.
“…congratulation.”
Cecil, who seemed to have a clear look on her face, came with Karin.
She stared at me and sighed heavily.
“…Honestly, I didn’t think I would win. But I thought there would be a chance to turn around.”
“hahaha…”
“Anyway. Congratulations. But you know what?”
She quietly approached me and spoke in a small tone.
“You mean playing with fire.”
“I have no intention of doing it.”
“Sheesh. He really is a man of stone.”
“If I have any sparks left, I’ll give them to Veronica.”
“Uhh… chicken meat. Chicken meat.”
After grumbling, she grinned. Then she reached out and I took her hand.
“Congratulations. Really.”
“Yes. Thank you.”
After Cecile entered, one after another, faces I knew came to the church.
Eight star seekers, adventurer companions.
and.
“…congratulation.”
“…Congratulations.”
“Whoa… I wish you happiness.”
Even the well-dressed warrior party members.
Meeting their gaze, I shrugged.
“Thank you for coming.”
“…Yes. I have to come. Ah. Can I… go in?”
“Sure.”
Guests come and greet guests.
like that.
The time to be in this world is getting shorter and shorter, and finally the time has come.
“We are going to start the ceremony.”
“All right.”
I stood at the entrance of the main building wearing a prepared tuxedo. Usually, there is a podium for preaching.
“The groom’s position.”
The sixth man was the host. As he smiled and brushed his shiny hair to make it even more shiny, I walked down the Virgin Road.
Step by step on the red carpet.
Like a wedding event in a game, when I walked out confidently and stood in my seat.
“The bride’s position.”
The performance and singing of the choir begins with the solemn voice of the Sixth Man.
“The Lord is with you. This is also happy.”
A silver-haired beauty wearing a white wedding dress and a veil was walking softly while listening to wedding music in the church.
To her, I calmly walked.
“…Please be happy.”
The Pope, who gave Veronica’s hand to me with regret, sighed and headed to the officiating table.
like that. I held Veronica’s hand tightly until he went to his seat.
“You don’t regret it?”
People cheering, choir playing.
Even in the midst of the noise, Veronica seemed to have heard me and put a smile on her veiled face.
“Who will say.”
That smile melts my heart.
Strength enters the hand that I gently held, and Veronica moves it and puts her arm around my arm.
“Wow! Wow! Sage!!”
“Nya-nya-nyang! The two of us finally got together Nyan!! Be happy Nyang!!
Wilkers in a suit that didn’t suit him and Rachel in a dress sat together and burst into cheers.
Is it because of the light atmosphere unique to adventurers? The people who were sitting there started shouting.
“Sage! You know we saved our lives thanks to you?!”
“You should be that happy!!”
“Hey man! You said we should live single for the rest of our lives!!
What kid would say such nonsense?
Turning my head, I was one of the A-class adventurers who were eaten by the Sixth Man the other day.
I can understand why you eat galgan.
“Hmm. Did you want to enjoy single life like that?”
Strength goes into the folded arms. A smile crept across the beautiful face behind the veil.
A bit stiff and scary.
“No way.”
“Whoops. Right?”
“then.”
Only then did I walk step by step with Veronica, who let go of her smile.
I see familiar faces in the seats around Virgin Road.
“…Cyron is also true.”
It would have been nice to have a bit more formality in a place like this.
You’re still wearing revealing clothes.
“Isn’t it covered up too much though?”
“…Are we supposed to be happy with the bikini armor?”
“Whoops. That’s right.”
Step by step.
Chin and Mr. Edwards were laughing and clapping at us.
Glancing at them, Veronica muttered in a low tone.
“When I met Mr. Edward in Trevor Village. I was really nervous.”
“Did you?”
“Yeah. That’s the only way to do it, right?”
“But there were many times when I was away like that.”
“Whoops. Call it a woman’s intuition.”
“That feeling. I hope you will use it well when you go to my world.”
“Ah. Come to think of it, I said what you’re doing is dangerous, right?”
“yes.”
Even if I go back to the original world, I won’t be able to leave the unit right away.
Veronica also understood that part, so she didn’t show any complaints.
“Then can I work at the orphanage there?”
“Everyone will like it.”
“why?”
“Tell me that the angels are here.”
“Puhh…”
It’s a shame because her smile was covered by the veil, otherwise everyone would be surprised.
That’s because her smile that I can see in my eyes is so beautiful.
To the point where I wondered if he was really an angel.
increasingly.
The end of the Virgin Road was approaching.
The pope standing at the chair was smiling benevolently, but there was a moderate mix of regret and joy in his eyes.
“sad?”
“Not at all.”
“What do you miss?”
“no.”
“You’re firm.”
“Originally, once I decide, I’m straight. That’s why. Don’t you like it?”
“No. Good.”
“Yes. Yes.”
The only thing left to do in front of the officiating table was one step.
I said holding Veronica’s hand.
“Don’t let me go now. Even if I regret it, I can’t back down. You no longer have a choice.”
“That’s what I’m going to say. Hyeonu. You only have two options left.”
What. To be happy being your groom, or to be happy being your bride?
nice Are you saying that the chemistry is good after seeing this?
I slightly averted my eyes to look at Veronica, and she also averted to look up at me.
Me and Veronica both had good eyesight to block it with a veil.
Both of us were laughing heartily.
“There will be an officiating speech.”
The bride and groom stop where they are supposed to be and after a few ceremonies.
The Sixth Man solemnly sentenced, and accordingly, the pope calmly begins to read the prepared address.
“Veronica is my daughter, a wonderful child of the Creator. She knows what to do…”
The officiating speech is long.
That must mean that the Pope deeply cares for Veronica.
I glanced at Veronica. She was smiling, but she had plenty of tears in her eyes.
“Do not cry.”
“…don’t cry. Whip.”
Liar.
I squeezed her hand tightly, and only then did Veronica swallow her nose and remain calm.
“…So. May God bless my daughter who is now with a wonderful husband. Guys, let’s pray.”
Since it is the church’s wedding procedure, it is only natural that there be prayers.
Even if I’m not religious, I’ll have to give up the level of imitation.
I bowed my head slightly, like Veronica, and raised my head in response as everyone raised their heads.
“Sure. I’ll ask the groom. Will he always cherish and love his bride?”
“Yes.”
“That’s not an answer. Veronica is also my daughter.”
A smirk crept across the bear’s mouth. So I shrugged.
“I swear to Cosmo.”
“No, in church… tsk. Do you have any thoughts of conversion?”
Anyway, trust him.
“Kuhm. That’s right. I understand. Then, Bride Veronica. As a child of God, do you promise to always do good, never betray your groom, and always love him?”
“Yes!!!”
“Ahahahaha!!”
“Cardinal… ah…”
“Sister… I’m ashamed…”
grinning.
Veronica was not shy and answered coolly, and the Pope hesitated as if he was a little embarrassed.
“That… if you don’t want to get married and live with your father for the rest of your life…”
“No! God wills it!”
“right!!”
“cool!!”
Cries of support for Veronica are heard everywhere. Most of them were adventurers or mercenaries who were atheists, but the believers also just smiled happily.
“I see… Then. Is there anyone here who opposes the marriage of the two of you? If so, please come out at this moment.”
Veronica and I turn to look at the crowd, but no one steps forward.
great. Great.
Veronica and I turned around and the Pope smiled bitterly.
“With this. I declare that a pair of lovers who love each other have become husband and wife in the name of God!!”
Simultaneously with the papal sentence.
[You have achieved the Marriage achievement.]
[Please wait a moment.]
Even in the game, there was a short waiting time after completing all the achievements.
It wasn’t too long though…
“Then, to prove that, the groom and the bride. Chiyiyiin! Han! Prove each other’s love with a kiss… Hey! I’m not done talking yet!”
noisy.
Before the Sixth Man finished speaking, I lifted Veronica’s veil. Then, as if Veronica had been waiting, she hugged my neck and we shared a deep kiss like we always do.
“…That’s too hot. Better send it quickly. Come on. Is anyone dissatisfied with ending this wedding?! Oh, what is it? The groom’s trotter! If anyone wants to see the bride dance and sing, Get up and shout!!”
Now that the officiating ceremony is over, it is now the realm of the moderator. So the Sixth Man shouted after completely erasing the solemnity from before.
Is that why?
A few mischievous people tried to get up.
Before that, I teleported my rainbow wand and mace.
That’s how I hear a weapon in Veronica’s hand.
“Would you like to wake up sometime?”
“You may have heard of a bloody wedding. But don’t worry.”
sh*t. Veronica had a perfect smile.
“I’ll treat you.”
“……”
In this way, the wedding was able to end safely without anyone’s disagreement.
As soon as we changed our clothes after the wedding, we were taken to the reception area.
There were many people at the already prepared reception.
When I was told to look around and say something.
A message window appeared before my eyes.
[You have achieved the ‘World’ achievement.]
[Returns after a while.]
[Companion – Veronica]
I held Veronica’s hand tightly. She nodded her head as well.
I looked around at everyone and said.
“I… am not of this world.”
“…What?”
“No, what is that human talking about all of a sudden?”
The chatter grows.
I laughed at them.
“Thank you so much. If it weren’t for you guys. I wouldn’t have saved this world, couldn’t have lived in this world, and never met my other half.”
Did you feel that my words were not a joke?
Except for a few who had already heard what would happen next from Veronica, everyone was surprised.
However.
Even so, it must be done.
“Thank you so much. And Lucille.”
“S-Master…”
“Thank you for growing up well. Now. From now on, you are a wise man.”
I threw my rainbow wand at her. Upon receiving it, Lucille closed her eyes tightly.
“Can I come too?!”
“Well? But if you want to do it, there must be nothing you can’t do. I also made the impossible possible.”
Finding bugs wasn’t easy.
[The return begins.]
Light begins to radiate around me and Veronica.
Everyone panics when our bodies rise to the sky.
And those who knew what this light was all knelt down nervously.
After all, this is the light of the Creator.
It was his light that I met the other day.
“Veronica. Say something.”
Veronica looked up at me and smiled.
“Goodbye! Everyone! I…”
[The return begins.]
this. I didn’t get all the lines.
I opened my eyes.
What I see in front of my eyes is an old laptop.
I checked the time, it was 6:00 in the morning.
I looked at my cell phone.
The good news remained.
And more good news.
was by my side
“…is this… your world?”
twice twice.
Veronica sat on my bed in a white dress and looked at me with a tilt of her head.
Then, slowly, I looked out the window and was startled.
“Oh my God! Buildings this high?! No! No! Uh, what are those?!”
“It’s okay if you learn the details slowly.”
“…Uh, umm. Yes. That’s right. You just have to figure it out slowly.”
I held my hand lightly and Finn Veronica and I hugged each other.
-Releung!!
“Surprised! What is this?! Artifact?!”
“It’s not like that… Wait a minute.”
i got a call
-Team Leader! The old woman says she’s going into action right away! Must come right away!!
“…Damn it.”
“Operation? What operation?”
before entering the game.
Terrorists infiltrated an elementary school in Tokyo and took children and teachers hostage.
They demanded 5 billion yen in cash and the release of Muska Etatsu, a cult leader arrested last year.
Because of that, we came to Japan and were negotiating with the Japanese government about the operation.
and around early morning.
I received the good news that the Japanese government decided to follow our side’s strategy.
With the snipers all positioned accordingly, an order was issued to enter as quickly as possible and subdue the Tereboms.
“Well…”
I thought as I hugged the puzzled Veronica and sat on top of me.
Veronica, who looked at me kindly, kissed my forehead and said,
“It’s about saving someone else, right?”
“…yes.”
“then.”
Veronica stroked my cheek.
“It’s okay, my love. We’ll be together forever.”
“…okay.”
we’ll keep working together
