442 – The merry wedding – 1

It’s unfamiliar. Maybe it’s because I’m wearing a tuxedo for the first time in my life instead of the uniform I always wear, but I feel like my body is wrapped in a blanket.

“What do you think? Do you have any discomfort moving around?”

“Good. It feels like the clothes I always wear.”

However, he gave a positive answer to the imperial tailor’s question. It was awkward because it was unfamiliar clothes, and since the clothes themselves were custom-made, I couldn’t find any uncomfortable parts.

Actually, I’m a little scared that if I say it’s uncomfortable, they’ll make a new one on the spot. Considering the ability and passion of the tailors I’ve seen so far, that’s more than enough.

“Is that so? Even if it’s something you only wear for a short time, it’s something you wear on an important occasion in your life, so if there’s an uncomfortable part, it’s a problem.”

Luckily, the tailor kept nodding his head as if he was satisfied with my answer.

“I especially took care to make it because the Minister had to wear it five more times.”

“Oops, then I’m sorry I only have to pay for one set.”

“hehehe, the imperial family has decided to cover the costs, so don’t worry.”

The tailor, who was smiling while covering his mouth, eventually turned his gaze to Mar. Since there is no problem with the groom, it seems he is trying to focus on the real protagonist, the bride.

As I was looking at the tailor, I quietly adjusted my bow tie. I always wear a tie and a bow tie, so I feel very empty. Both wear the same thing around their necks, but there is a difference in length.

‘I have to endure it.’

However, I tried to suppress the awkwardness and get used to it. An expert put it on like this, so it is correct. For no reason, I thought, ‘I’m more comfortable with a tie.’ If you say the same thing, you might have to put your outfit together again from the beginning.

If awkwardness was the problem in the first place, I wouldn’t have worn the tuxedo itself.

“Chief, are you sure it’s okay? You look uncomfortable.”

While I was carelessly fiddling with my sleeve, Eri, who was wandering nearby, slinked up to me and whispered.

Anyway, he is quick to notice. Or did I fail to manage my facial expressions?

“If you find comfortable clothes, they end up being uniforms, but you can’t get married wearing those.”

After confirming that the tailor’s attention was completely focused on Mar, he answered softly. If all clothes under the uniform are equal, it is better to just wear what you are given. That’s the path that makes everyone happy.

Furthermore, it is a wedding that is not an official event or during work, but it is very strange to wear the bloody uniform of the Inspection Department at a place that should be blessed. If you do something wrong, you can turn your wedding hall into a place where all kinds of ghosts gather.

“That’s right.”

Eri nodded her head as if she was convinced by my explanation. Even to Eri, who is full of madness, a wedding with a uniform from the Inspection Department doesn’t seem like a good idea.

“Thank goodness the color is black. I can’t imagine the manager wearing white.”

“I couldn’t give up on that either.”

The only thing I asked for when making clothes was color. Like Eri said, it was hard to imagine myself wearing white clothes.

“And if I wear white, the attention will be diverted. If possible, only the bride should receive attention.”

“Isn’t the groom the main character at a wedding?”

“I’m okay with doing it six times.”

I’m sure it will get attention at least once.

When Eri added that, her eyes widened and she started giggling. It seems that he was impressed by the husband-to-be’s broad-mindedness.

Whenever the tailor visits the mansion, the pattern is always the same.

“This is the final version!”

A special tank tailor who attracts aggro with a voice full of passion.

“Wow…”

Mar is the first to be attracted to aggro by such a tank.

“Sister, hurry up and try it on!”

“Sure. You can try it on to see if there are any strange parts.”

Other lovers followed suit, showing passionate reactions.

And naturally, I am buried in a corner and forgotten. It is a very familiar and familiar pattern.

“Then the princess needs to change, so the minister, please leave for a moment.”

But today I couldn’t breathe quietly in the corner. Because the tailor specifically pointed me out and issued an order of deportation.

“…We’re a couple anyway, so why bother going out?”

“Please leave.”

“Yes.”

I nodded obediently to the firm instructions.

When I think about it, the tailor is the person in charge at this point. It is natural to follow the instructions of the chief executive.

“Can the others help me for a moment? It’s a bit uncomfortable to put on by myself.”

“If that’s the case, of course we should help.”

Just before I opened the door and went out, I heard a conversation between the tailor and Trixie.

I am confident that I can help, but I didn’t dare open my mouth. I don’t want to see Mar, who is so happy, look scared.

***

I looked at my reflection in the mirror.

“For the fabric, we used what was presented to the imperial family by the Marquis of Iones. Since the princess’s prestige does not need to be expressed externally, the freshness and beauty of the new bride are emphasized rather than excessive splendor─”

The tailor is next to me explaining the dress, but honestly, I can’t hear it properly. Because I was too distracted by what I saw right in front of me to focus my attention on my ears.

From noble mtl dot com

Without realizing it, I reached out to the full-length mirror in front of me. When my hand, wearing gloves as white as a dress, touched the mirror, I also stretched out my hand to face the reflection in the mirror. Then it felt as if two brides were holding hands.

‘It’s pretty.’

When I look in the mirror and think like this, I feel like I am a person with strong self-love, but that is all I can think about right now.

It’s really, really pretty. It is prettier, more beautiful, and more elegant than anything I have ever seen. This is a level of dignity that can be seen even when just standing still.

‘You’re getting married wearing this.’

When that thought occurred to me, my face started to turn red little by little. Wear these clothes and stand next to the sword. We will get married with everyone’s blessings at the place where the Emperor swore his eternal love for the first Empress.

“I’m sorry, but I’m not ready to be with anyone yet.”

The best moment of my life is ahead, but strangely, the worst moment of my life comes to mind.

3 Years ago, when Karl pushed away my love. At that time, Karl had not yet erased the wound in my heart, and I did not even know that Karl had a wound.

At that time, I was so angry and sad that I cried a lot. I was busy being comforted by my brother and sisters, and even cried profusely in front of my father.

‘It was like that.’

I carefully turned my head and looked around. Beatrix looking at her happily, Louise smiling brightly and telling her she was pretty, Irina clapping her hands and smiling, Ergébet giving her thumbs up while expressing admiration, and Fenelia nodding her head.

I am no longer surrounded and comforted by my family. Congratulations are being received among the new family.

“Ma, Marya?”

I was startled by Beatrix’s surprised voice. Before she knew it, her tears were flowing down her cheeks.

Fortunately, it wasn’t at the level of pouring out, but at most, one drop was enough to ruin one’s makeup.

‘It shouldn’t be like this.’

Today is a happy day, but why am I like this? It was a good atmosphere, but everyone was surprised because of me.

“Dog, Ganchan…”

I barely opened my mouth, but my eyes and mouth didn’t move as I wanted. A voice came out that I didn’t mind hearing.

I’m embarrassed. I was so emotional that I cried for no reason.

“Other priests also get emotional when their wedding is just around the corner. It’s not shameful to show tears.”

In the meantime, only the tailor comforted me with a calm expression.

I don’t know if that’s the truth or just a white lie to appease a crybaby─

“Mar is crying!?”

When I suddenly open the door and see a knife coming in, I think it would be best to think of it as the former. Because that way, I think Carl will calm down.

***

While loitering in front of the door, I heard the word ‘tears’ and so I rushed in. It’s such animalistic etiquette, but who wouldn’t be embarrassed when a bride-to-be cries?

Still, I was relieved when the tailor explained that they were tears of joy. Mar also seemed confused as to why he was crying.

“…Something like that happened.”

– Huh.

When I told my first father-in-law about that little commotion, he laughed.

-Mar looked more like his wife than me. She pretends not to be emotional, but that’s just the nature of a wife.

“Did your mother-in-law show tears too?”

– Thanks to you, I was misunderstood a lot. It was already a marriage with a significant age difference, but there was talk for a while that it was a predatory marriage.

Seeing her father-in-law muttering bitterly, she quietly lowered her head.

It’s unfortunate, but considering my father-in-law’s size and appearance, it’s not surprising that she was misunderstood like that. Moreover, as my father-in-law said, the age difference between Mar’s mother and my father-in-law is quite large.

– Don’t think strange thoughts and raise your head.

“Yes.”

She quickly adjusted her expression and raised her head.

Let’s calm down. If you show even the slightest sign of smiling at this time, there is a high possibility that your father-in-law will be angry.

‘How could the duke plunder?’

He gently bit her lip and calmed her emotions to a desperate level.

No, but what kind of crazy person led public opinion like that? Is it one of the previous Dukes? Otherwise it doesn’t make sense.

“Still, I feel good because I think this is proof that I too can live happily with Mar, just as my mother-in-law lives happily with my father-in-law.”

– You might think so.

After erasing the words of her predatory marriage from her head, she desperately opened her mouth and her father-in-law looked satisfied.

Regardless of the strange rumors spread by others, the two are living in harmony. She said she heard that from her youngest son-in-law, so she won’t feel bad.

– Has it already been so long?

After that, she talked to her father-in-law about various things for a while, but he turned his gaze to her corner and she muttered softly.

– Let me stop now. More details will be discussed later in the system.

“Already? I’m still wearing Marga’s dress, so why not just look at it and hang up?”

– …It’s okay. I’ll see you at the wedding anyway.

It was only for a moment, but I could feel my father-in-law hesitating. However, she did not offer it again. She has made a firm decision, and it is not her duty as a warrior to interfere with it.

– Ah, now that I think about it.

Her father-in-law, who was just about to cut off her communication, opened her mouth again.

– Sooner or later, Hyeong Hyeong-gong will come to the system. She made a fuss saying that she would definitely go because it was her nephew’s wedding.

“Yes, well, I was prepared.”

– If Duke Hyeonjeong attends the wedding, the Golden Ball will also come.

She couldn’t answer that question right away. It’s like all five dukes gathering at an imperial wedding.

‘I’m going to be amazed.’

I really think my wedding will go down in the history of the empire.
