Chapter 366

Today’s Lesser is bigger. Fran, Monica, and Nicola, my side servings, four Fugo and castle chefs, two priests, two priests, and the priests necessary for the star-knot ritual, me and the priest There is a large amount of luggage, such as ceremonial outfits, side food, and changing clothes.

 

And the accompaniment from the castle side is Otlier, Brünnhilde, Haltomut, and escort angels Angelica and Leonore. Since I stayed at Reizegang, I decided to give priority to relatives and high-ranking people.

 

Dermuel, Udit, Filine, Rieserator, Richarda are answering machines.

 

Brother Cornelius is not my guardian knight, but is accompanied by the groom’s relative. Similarly, father is not the chief of the knights but the father of the groom today.

 

The father’s escort knight is organized around the vice leader.

 

Because it is said that the lord family will participate, not only the lords but also Villefried and Charlotte are together. Bonifatius should accompany the lord family, but since he has already announced his retirement, he has an answering machine to protect the castle. Because there are so many people on each side, the castle is quite thin.

 

Ceremonial temple group and its side serving, lord family and their side, Knights for escort, groom is not only Lamprecht brother but also Freuden and his family.

 

I was surprised at the scale of the companion when I received an explanation about this companion.

 

“There are so many”

 

“If Ahrensbach did not push the tension between the territory of Aube and the territory to the fore, it would not have been of this scale”

 

According to the explanation of the chief priest, if there is a regular nobility, and there is a purchase from another territory, after getting the permission of each lord, go to the gate at the boundary only with relatives and greet each other And then bring the bride or groom home. At this point, with the fiance who has not yet completed the ritual, the formal marriage will wait for the summer star knot ritual.

 

“What is the case when you are not a regular noble?”

 

“The marriage of lord candidates and royalty is different”

 

The marriage of royals and lord candidates requires the permission of the king as well as the lord, so the Lord of the temple comes from the central temple during the lord meeting, and the star-knot ritual is held. It seems that a star-knotted ritual will be held in the prayer room where the altar I went to go to take God’s will, and then only the announcement will be held in the territory.

 

In any case, unlike this time, there seems to be no ritual on the border.

 

“Why is this baggage so big? I’m on the border to make sure that Aube Ahrensbach is worried about the cute kite I think I was going to have a star-knot ritual at the gate of the city. “

 

I believe that it must be a message from Ahrensbach that Aurelia, who is married to a house with a strong blood of Reizegang, should not be taken down like Gabriele.

 

“But that’s not the only purpose. If you trust Lamplecht’s words, the bride is the daughter of the third wife from Freibertak. You don’t have to be so big. Isn’t it the best purpose to check the Ehrenfest trying to get away from Ahrensbach with the deal with Ahrensbach?

 

The priest said so and exhaled.

 

“To date, the faction of the Veronicas, in other words the faction of Ahrensbach’s strong influence, has been the biggest force in Ehrenfest for decades, and drew the blood of Ahrensbach. It was supposed to be a rock stone when Jilvester became the lord, but Jilvester saved you and cut off the faction that was his ground by consecrating the former temple chief and mother Veronica.

 

In the words of the priest, I was able to finally understand the situation of the adoptive father. When I didn’t understand the factional relations of the aristocrats, I was thinking, “Why do you allow such an all-you-can-given sinner to judge?” It seems that it was an act.

 

In my position, it means giving some kind of punishment to the lords, brothers and sisters, fathers and mothers, and most of the aides. If that happens, you will have to confront the aristocrats who are not so close to you and the aristocratic aristocrats who have had a grudge so far.

 

When I knew what it meant to lose the backing, it was terrible.

 

“I went to think that Gilvester was necessary. Actually, it was necessary. You don’t have to face that …. And Arlensbach’s purpose for this time was in the Aristocracy. I think it includes observing you who couldn’t see it. “

 

“I know it because I’ve been told many times. I don’t move spontaneously until I speak to the chief. Isn’t the blessing minimized?”

 

I’m going to hang around behind the priest like a chick that walks behind my parents to make it appear that they are just moving as their parents say.

 

When we left early in the morning, we were able to arrive at Reizegang by noon. Compared to moving around the winter pavilion here and there at the prayer ceremony, it was quite quick as it just pushed straight forward. It would be great to be able to increase the speed because it was a movement with only aristocrats above the intermediate level.

 

“Welcome!”

 

Earl of Reizegang welcomes us, and the lords, Villefried, and Charlotte enter into the house, but I can’t enter immediately. You have to give instructions to the francs so that you can keep the beasts away.

 

¡Let me wait for the aides from the castle before leaving, and I and the priest give instructions to the temple group.

 

“After lunch, we will go away to change clothes. Be prepared to do this.”

 

“I’m smart”

 

As with the prayer ceremony, priests and shrine maidens cannot enter the House of Count Reizegang. I will stay away. Therefore, it was necessary to prepare food, and I and the priest must also go away when changing to ceremonial clothes. I think that it was normal, Ilkner, who allowed the gray priests free access to take care of us at the Harvest Festival, was still quite loose.

 

“To prepare for the altar, we will first head to the gate of the border. There is not much room.”

 

Gray priests begin to move in the words of the priest. You’ll have to clean up, eat the lunch box prepared by Ella, and bring in the luggage you need to change clothes. It will be quite busy.

 

After seeing the gray priests who started to move, I and the priest headed to their neighborhood and the mansion.

 

“The cook is here”

 

Court cooks brought from Fugo and the castle are helpers for tonight’s banquet welcoming the brides. Instead of accommodation, we will show you how to make the correct collection of recipes that my great-grandfather bought.

 

When the room was allocated and we had lunch, we changed to the ceremonial clothing of the temple head, and the temple group departed first. The temple group also includes me and the priest’s aides.

 

Since there is no ritual at the gate, of course, there is no altar. You have to make a simple altar. At the same time, in order to prepare for unexpected attacks, the chief priest will be crafted in various ways in the gate waiting room and the ritual room.

 

I got to change into Monica and Nicola and boarded the Lesser. After confirming Angelica in the front passenger seat and the gray priests in the rear seat, he left.

 

From Rizegang, run further south.

 

“… Eh?”

 

At the time of the prayer ceremony during the blue maiden era, when viewed from the sky, there was no difference between Ehrenfest and Ahrensbach, and the same forest continued for a long time. Of course, I didn’t know where the boundary was.

 

However, the boundary line is visible this time. It is divided into a rich forest and a shrub grassland, as if it was a perfect line. For the time being, there were only prayer ceremonies and harvest festivals under the direct control of the area, and I did not come to the southern end where the nobility had jurisdiction.

 

When I turned my eyes to the chief, I saw the chief squinting with a difficult face and looking down. After all, it seems that the situation is not normal.

 

‘I wanted to ask various questions to the priest, but it ’s not an emergency, but it ’s not an emergency. Yes. I can’t help it, so I decided to put up with the gate.

 

The lord seems to know if the nobility crosses the border between the territories. Conversely, it cannot be detected by owners of magical power that does not meet the standards of nobility. Thanks to the barrier that protects this boundary, the lord seems to be able to quickly detect the invasion of other nobility.

 

And the border gate is set up to enter and exit other territories so that nobility can be suspected of aggression.

 

“… is that a border gate?”

 

“It ’s nice that you do n’t have to worry about mistakes.”

 

As Angelica says, there seems to be no worry about making mistakes. Although there is a highway, the area is somewhat open, but it looks very conspicuous even from the sky because there is only a white and huge gate with a forest spreading around it. It is made on the premise that it will be used by aristocrats in pots, so it is much larger and wider than the city gate.

 

However, unlike the city wall, an invisible border extends from the boundary gate, so there is only a gate in the forest, and it feels quite strange.

 

“Lose Mine, Ferdinand, I have been waiting for you.”

 

When I arrived at the border gate, the knights of the gatekeeper greeted me. Of course, there are not only Ehrenfest knights but also Arensbach knights at this border gate.

 

“It ’s a big job to gather lords from both territories today, so it ’s hard, but thank you.”

 

I greeted both representatives as directed by the chief, and handed the leather bags that were handed over to the chief. In the leather bag that makes a jarring sound, there is money for the knights who are packed in the border later to drink celebration wine.

 

Celebration liquor has a risk of being mixed in, so it is safer not to prepare from here. Because there is no actual thing, there will be no one who drinks secretly during the mission, and the representative will not be able to dress because it is handing over in front of everyone.

 

“I’m sorry”

 

A little smile on the faces of the knights, probably because money was given for launch after a big job. The first impression is important. It seemed delightful for the time being, so I had the Ehrenfest knight lead me to the ceremonial room.

 

“The priests prepare the altar. Rosemine is waiting in the waiting room”

 

The priest gives instructions, glances at the baggage being carried by the francs, and after confirming that all the baggage has been carried out, clears the beast and heads to the waiting room.

 

While the francs are preparing, my castle side will take care of me. O’Telier and Brünnhilde moved around and brewed tea. The tea ceremony is a cookie prepared by Ella before departure.

 

When I was eating, I gave some instructions, and the priest came to the waiting room to see if the installation of the magical tools was completed. Immediately Justocus begins to brew tea. There are several faces of Justok and others I don’t know about. It was strange that Eckhart was missing.

 

After reviewing today’s rituals and division of duties, I give the head of the scenery seen from the sky to the chief priest.

 

“… Still, the scenery has changed a lot. It’s different from my memory, but it’s the same as the place where I was attacked at that time?”

 

At that time, it seems to have been communicated properly. The priest asked his eyebrows and said, “Oh, roughly the same.” This conspicuous gate was not in sight, so it is a bit far away, but it is similar in the sense that it is near the border with Ahrensbach.

 

The priest, out of a leather bag hung on the waist belt, puts out an eavesdropping witchcraft and presents it to me. With a sigh of praise, “I also have an Ahrensbach knight,” I knew that I had lost my voice again.

 

“I’m sorry”

 

“Oh, good. Perhaps this border was under the jurisdiction of Count Vindewald. After the countdown of Count Vindewald was dismissed, there was not enough magical power for the nobles dispatched to this area. It seems that nobles are not dispatched, or because the magic power of Ahrensbach as a whole has fallen in the first place .. Anyway, Ahrensbach seems to be very hard at magic. “

 

In the words of the chief priest, I suddenly sharpen my lips.

 

“What was the purpose of the two men to buy a bride in the midst of so much magical power? The lord’s niece is a senior nobleman and has more magical power than Ramplecht’s older brother before compression?” I think it’s a valuable human resource … “

 

“I have decided to demand more than two brides. I don’t know what I’m aiming for yet …”

 

Overwhelmingly lacking information, the priest drinks tea while saying so.

 

When the altar was in place, the people of Ehrenfest arrived, followed by the people of Ahrensbach.

 

The lords exchange long greetings. I listened to it and I was observing the people on the Ahrensbach side.

 

The brides who are wearing veil and are not able to see their faces are in the back, so Aub Ahrensbach and his family greeted them first.

 

… Is this Aub Ahrensbach?

 

Aub Ahrensbach is old enough to be a grandfather. Isn’t it from the mid-50s to the second half? When Georgine was lined up next door, the age was as different as the parent and child, and when Dietrinde was there, it seemed completely three generations.

 

A girl younger than Dietrinde, about the same age as me, was with him, hiding in Aub Ahrensbach. It ’s a blond shame, it ’s a cute girl.

 

…… Is that child another lord candidate?

 

If you are a lord candidate, you must be a son of a lord, but not a child of Georgine. I have heard that Dietlinde is the youngest daughter. In addition, Georgine has a different face, and it is not the distance between parents and children when viewed from the standing position.

 

…… Is there any other wife, or is it an adopted child from the sideline like me?

 

While looking at the lords of Ahrensbach, the greeting between the lords seems to have ended. Georgine has a meek smile and refrains half a step from Aub Ahrensbach. With a modest wife’s impression, it looked something different from what I saw at Ehrenfest.

 

And Dietrinde smiles and greets Villefried. And Villefried also answered.

 

“Will you be engaged with Villefried, you, Rosemine? … It doesn’t look like the relationship between the two has changed.”

 

“Rose Mine is originally a family, so it doesn’t change”

 

“That’s right”

 

Afterwards, I looked at Lamprecht’s older brother Aurelia and his family, reflecting on the end of the sight of Dietrinde’s first greeting with Charlotte.

 

Aurelia wears a veil, so the face is not very clear. However, she was wearing a gorgeous costume because she had been told in advance that she would marry as a lord of the lord.

 

女性 It is a little tall for women, and it feels good to line up with Lamprecht’s brother.

 

Aurelia’s father, like Aub Ahrensbach, is quite old. If you are not good enough, your first grandchild is an adult generation. The third wife, Aurelia’s mother, is probably his late wife. The third wife looked old enough to be the same as her mother.

 

And then he looks at the girl lined up with her mother.

 

…… Is that child a younger sister who is amiable, smart, and cute? Maybe similar to Turi.

 

Talking about the braids of fluffy hair, it seemed that the active and bright atmosphere seemed somewhat similar to Turi. The age when I saw it is about the same as Turi. Turi grows better than the surroundings, so it’s probably about the same age as Dietrinde. Even if there is a slight difference in grades, I think there is no doubt that I am still a student at the Aristocracy.

 

Behind the Aurelians, I could see Freuden’s relatives and their relatives, Arensbach’s middle noble relatives, greeting each other.

 

“Let’s start the star-knot ritual”

 

The star-knot ritual is started by the head of the priest. The relatives moved to the room where the altar was, and the bride and groom, my aides and the apostle’s aides were left in the waiting room.

 

“You are the sister of Lamprecht and are you going to perform this ritual? I heard you are the saint of Ehrenfest, but are you so young and okay?”

 

I was surprised at the voice of Aurelia. It’s said that you don’t touch, but you can’t ignore it when you talk to it.

 

At the same time I looked back, I was surrounded by vigilant Angelica and entourage. In response, the bride’s escort knight narrows his eyes and is on alert.

 

“You don’t have a lousy sign at the place of pleasure”

 

From the back of the aides, I speak to Aurelia.

 

“It may be anxious for Ahrensbach to give these children important rituals, but I have been doing many rituals as the temple head. Please rest assured.]

 

“Rosemine, contact is forbidden”

 

In the words of the entourage, I was prepared to be beaten by the guardians later, and then suddenly turned my face and stretched my chest.

 

“I have no contact. This is my own word.”

 

“It’s a lot of big self-speaking”

 

Talking about what I was saying, I insisted that a thin voice rang from Ahrensbach. I don’t know because it’s blocked by a lot of people, but I think it’s probably Aurelia.

 

“… I’m just talking to myself, can you bless me?”

 

I blinked with an anxious voice that included surprises. The inside of Ehrenfest is divided, and the information must have been sent from the old Veronica school to Ahrensbach. It was a push on the Arensbach side for this, but maybe it was a push from the top for the brides. If so, it is the two brides who are most worried about getting married in a difficult situation.

 

“This is just a word, but isn’t it natural to bless a new couple? That’s why I’m here …. Because the territory is complex, there’s a lot of anxiety about each other. Life at Ehrenfest is something that two couples talk to, support each other, and make choices with them, and I hope that it will be full of happiness. ”

 

The escort knights of each other looked at each other and lowered into a sigh, which softened the atmosphere in the waiting room. At the same time, the voice of Fran, “Please enter the temple, please come in” from the other side of the door. I smiled at the two brides and then went to the open door with the scriptures.

 

I walked straight toward the priest in front of the altar, feeling a strong line of sight from the Ahrensbach side. Pay close attention not to step on the hem at this important ceremony.

 

A private platform is placed behind the altar for the scriptures. As usual, I handed the scriptures to the chief priest and placed them on the altar.

 

priest chief speaks when I am ready.

 

“Start the star-knot ritual. The bride and groom are here!”

 

The bride and groom entered from the door opened by the gray priest. Although it was a ritual in which the Knights of each other showed a sense of tension, I was looking a little relieved at the applause and congratulations from the relatives.

 

There was a story about the scriptures by the chief priest, and after that, while both lords were present, the two brides and grooms were asked about their will to marry. Since we are married to Ehrenfest, it is the Ehrenfest side that prepares the marriage documents. The bride and groom sign on the documents that the adoptive father has taken out using the pen of the magic tool.

 

Marriage is established when the two contract documents that burn in gold disappear completely.

 

“Blessings from the temple head for the birth of a new couple”

 

Here is my turn. In order to adjust the amount of blessing, a magic stone that had been preloaded with magic power was handed over to me by the priest. The blessing is done only with the magic power of this magic stone. This is an “overdoing prevention strategy” by the chief priest.

 

Listening to the priest’s line of sight of not doing anything superfluous, I took a deep breath and then prayed to God.

 

“The high god governing the sky as a high bower, the god of darkness and light, listen to my prayer, give birth to the birth of a new couple, give the body a blessing, dedicating their thoughts, prayer and gratitude I will receive the holy blessing. “

 

If you pray for the blessing of the Supreme God, the gold and black light swirls from the ring as usual and flies near the ceiling. And gold and black were twisted, overlapped and played.

 

Everything becomes small particles of light that scatter and pour onto the bride and groom. This time it was said to be modest, and since the bride and groom are two pairs, it is not a big blessing.

 

“My blessing, which is influenced by emotions, is breathing relief to the four people who flew equally, and Ahrensbach ’s feeling of excitement is“ Huh… ” A sigh screamed.

 

“It was a wonderful blessing. The Saint of Ehrenfest”

 

“I’m sorry”

 

Aub Ahrensbach smiles.

 

However, the line of sight was directed at the priest, not me.
