There was a strictly title-giving ceremony in the Great Hall of the Royal Castle.
The royal facades, each existing nobleman and the directors of the bureaux within the royal castle were present.
On the altar was King Azpur, and seven new nobles and five knights were called one at a time, and the title was awarded.
And the duties of each member (serving in the King's Capital, holding territory, institute) had been announced, and Babington as holding territory, Bold as the new noble representative to the Council of Lords, had finished taking the oath.
"Royal Institute Affidavit.
Orcott is in the middle of the proceedings.
"" Ha!
Alderson and Takeo rise.
"Representative Baron Barry Kelly Alderson.
Called his first name, Alderson heads up the stage.
First of all, give a toast to King Azpur.
"Sworn!"
Takeo thanked the words on the spot and kept his head down.
"We are aware of the mission of the Institute for the Preservation of Peace and Independence in our country, we pledge to abide by the laws of the Kingdom of Azpar, to unite unanimously, to retain strict discipline, to cultivate morality at all times, to respect the personality, to develop physical and mental integrity, to skill and, in the performance of our professional duties with a strong sense of responsibility, not to take risks when things come to pass, to carry out our duties with our own bodies and, consequently, to entrust His Majesty and the people.
When Alderson reads out the affidavit, he gives it to King Azpar.
And I come back to my seat with a thank you.
Takeo and Alderson take their seats when Olcott nods gently when he arrives at his seat.
"Knight's oath.
"" "" "Ha!
Five stand up, including Alice.
By the way, the knights wore full plates.
Alice is in attendance at her usual red full plate.
"Representative knight Alice Henry Elvis.
Called his first name, Alice heads to the stage.
First of all, give a toast to King Azpur.
"Sworn!"
The knights salute the words most.
"We knights pledge our constant loyalty to our motherland, to serve honestly, and to be ready to risk our lives for this oath at all times, as brave and submissive soldiers.
When Alice reads out the affidavit, she gives it to King Azpar.
And I come back to my seat with a thank you.
The knights take their seats when Orcott nods gently when they arrive at their seats.
"King Azpar, a Reminder.
"Uhm.
As long as I am truly happy to award the title of seven nobles and five knights without delay this time.
It would not be an exaggeration to say that the future prosperity of the kingdom depends on you and your lords in a biased way.
Hope to carry out your duties on your chest with the vows you have taken, and work hard to inspire the future.
This is a truly delightful day.
King Azpar and everyone on the spot but Orcott salute each other most.
"" "Loyalty to King Azpar! Prosper in the kingdom of Azpur!
and sum up.
"Your Majesty will be withdrawn.
King Azpar exits at a slow pace.
"I will conclude the award ceremony with the above.
After this, the newly made aristocrats will each have their own lunch, and a joint aristocratic training will be conducted on this occasion in the afternoon.
All disbanded. "
Everyone took their seats and began to follow the hall.
"Ha... you're done.
Takeo tells Alderson and Babington sitting next to him.
"I was nervous.
"Absolutely.
Babington and Alderson say as they make a tired face.
"Master Takeo, it's a move.
Alice is approaching.
"I've come to pick you up.
Takeo sighs.
"Ha. I'll see you later, Viscount Kitamizato.
"Bye."
Babington and Alderson take their seats.
Meet local lords and acquaintances in each.
"Well.
Miss Alice, shall we go back and get dressed?
"Yes, let's do that.
Takeo and Alice seemed to return to their rooms once.
"Um... Jesse, sister, what do we do?
"Right - lunch first.
Surely there was a cafeteria for nobility, wasn't there?
"Yes."
Smith and Jesse try to move.
"Oh, wait a minute.
Jesse, sister, Smith, let's have lunch.
Leila comes closer.
"Huh? Is that good?
Jesse listens back.
"The 3rd Prince family (us) will be in attendance only tomorrow.
My plans are over for the day, and my sister and brother won't be a problem.
Oh, Count Temple... "
"Ha, I'm a tea party with other nobles.
Lord Jesse should spend time with his sister and brother.
"Should I attend, too?
"... you won't need it.
It's just meaningless conversation anyway.
And if you go that way to me, Your Highness William will be surprised.
Makes the temple look boring.
"Yes, I'm sorry.
I'll call Count Temple tomorrow.
"Yes, I understand.
Temple nodded at Leila's words before leaving.
"Well.
Let's go to our office.
Jesse and Smith were moving ahead of Layla.
------------------------
"You're tired.
"Right."
Takeo and the others are talking while getting dressed.
"Dear Takeo... this way... please raise this way.
"Yes, sir.
Takeo lifts Alice's skirt to her waist and Alice fastens it with her jacket and buttons.
"Ha... wearing this dress is a hassle.
Travel clothes are easier, but I'm also suspicious of walking with that.
... I should have had it easier to wear.
Alice says as she gets familiar.
"... Miss Alice usually wears a dress for tomorrow on her full plate today... that's so much.
"A lot of people put it in Takeo's big bag... but that wasn't enough either.
Well, it's a few days of patience, isn't it? That would leave no other noblemen, so it's enough for everyday wear.
"... Alice, I was wondering if that would be good if you said lady was good.
Because it's beautiful to wear whatever people wear to it.
Praise Takeo as he holds Alice.
"... it's a very good word, but I can't be impressed with what you say while you touch my butt.
"Mm-hmm. Sounds like touching is important, right?
"That's not the word you hear in the middle of the day, is it?
Takeo, Leila, should we go to your sister?
"Yes, I understand.
Takeo and the others also made the move.
