Chapter 341

By no ordinary means

After somehow creating the wedding rings and engagement rings, I then confronted my next problem.

Where to hold the ceremony.

I thought it would be fine to hold it normally in the church built in the Sanctuary, but there were those waiting in anticipation here and there.

Simply put, there were plenty of people who would be troubled with the ceremony being held in the Sanctuary.

Only the people acknowledged by the Great Spirits were permitted to enter the Sanctuary. This was related to the innate goodness of the person, but even if they were a good person, the Sanctuary did not have the capacity to accept them so thoughtlessly and without principle.

「Haa~ this is hard.」

「Haa~ this is tough.」

Akane, who was in charge of the wedding, sighed, and I followed suit.

「It was supposed to be held at the Sanctuary church, but doing so would limit invitations to only Princess Mimir who could come and go freely and the leaders of the Sanctuary inhabitants.」

「Personally, I have no issue with that, but ……it would be distasteful.」

「Of course it would be. Setting aside who can and can’t come, you have to at least invite Margrave Volton, Barack-san or Hans-san from the Adventurers Guild, Papeck-san and Thomas-san from the Papeck Company. And we have to invite Earl Rockford if we invite Margrave Volton. Then, in turn, aside from Princess Mimir from Yggurle Kingdom, wouldn’t it be bad if you only invite Sophia-san’s parents?」

「Uwaaa~ here comes the difficult topics.」

Can’t we just have a small event with just the relatives? And as if reading my thoughts, Akane shook her head.

「You can’t. Both you and I have been taken care of by Margrave Volton in Valkyra Kingdom, haven’t we? The one who protected us from the mass of nobles and merchants by becoming our backer was Margrave Volton, wasn’t it? Even His Majesty had paid attention to us commoners’ needs. Even if they can’t attend, at the very least we have to send invitations.」

「……we can’t miss Margrave Volton.」

Having shielded us from things relating to the Divine Empire Sydnia, we definitely had to invite Margrave Volton.

「And Berkut would sulk if you don’t invite her.」

「Guha……」

Exposing their existence would subsequently leak the Sky Island. Moreover, if I invite Berkut, I’d have to invite Valkan-san and Valzak-san. I won’t invite their two dumb sons though.

「So in the city to the east of the Sanctuary, what was it called…… oh, right right, I think it was given the name Crossfort[1] .」

「……still, that place was built by the union of the Trinationー Yggurle Kingdom, Valkyra Kingdom, Lomaria Kingdomー, and there is an influx of people from Samandour Kingdom now too, so isn’t security a concern?」

「I think security will largely be okay. The problem is if the wedding is leaked to the countries besides Valkyra Kingdom.」

Ahh, I really want it to be a small event.

At the time Akane and I were troubled by where to hold the wedding, my fiancées were thinking of designs for their wedding dresses with Kaede.

Wedding dresses were also not part of the culture of this world. At weddings in this world, it was commonplace for the bride to have a pretty dress to wear, not like a pure white wedding dress, but rather a showy dress worn in contemporary dances.

The one who told my fiancées about the wedding dress was obviously Akane.

「Ah!」

「!? What’s wrong!? Don’t scream like that all of a sudden, you scared me!」

「Sorry, sorry. Uhh, are Sophia’s parents doing well? Do you need to have marriage greetings?」

「Ahh~ that was a thing, huh?」

Maria and Marnie no longer had anyone they could call family. However, Sophia’s parents were doing well in Yggurle Kingdom. I had met them once before when we visited, but her brother was working in the capital.

「A man asking for their daughter’s hand in marriage. Perhaps you need to greet them to be able to marry a noble’s daughter. I also have no clue about social etiquette with nobles, so perhaps we should ask Princess Mimir.」

「Instead of choosing where to hold the wedding, that should come first.」

「Then I will ask Princess Mimir.」

Saying so, Akane left the room. That said, Princess Mimir was in her mansion next to ours, a mere 5 minute walk away.

Do I have to make marital greetings to my partner’s parents? Oh man, now I’m nervous.

Footnotes:

1. I’m pretty sure that the city built by the Trination to the east of the Sanctuary was called Valor [mentioned in ch204/ch209], but I guess the author changed it, soooo I’ll be changing too.
