Chapter 360: Wedding Ceremony 2

Chapter 360: Wedding Ceremony 2

A simple carriage ran through the newly completed highway in the Sanctuary.

Yggurle Kingdom’s low ranking Sylphide house’s carriage and it was running directly towards the Sanctuary.

「............」

Sitting inside the carriage was the patriarch of the Sylphide Family, Dante, his wife Freesia, as well as the young man who had a stiff expression and spoke not a single word, the younger brother Darphy who wanted to destroy his sister’s things.

「Darphy, please watch your attitude. King Forselty, the Queen, and Prime Minister Balza are also attending the ceremony. Behavior like before is unacceptable.」

「............」

After the fight with Sophia last time, Dante repeatedly explained the truth to Darphy, but essentially nothing reached him.

A dagger was concealed in Darphy’s bosom. Moreover, the blade was covered in poison. Like this, as long he could cause an injury...... that was all Darphy thought about.

His target was Takumi. He thought that to target what his sister’s greatest source of grief and suffering would be, Takumi.

Moreover, inside the Sanctuary, Sophia would likely not be constantly guarding Takumi. Even less so in the wedding. She would be busy with bridal preparations.

Darphy had undoubtedly not realized. Though it was true that Sophia was always by Takumi’s side, it did not mean that Takumi could not fight. Rather, he was unaware that, setting aside experience, Takumi’s skills and status surpassed hers.

And though the Spirits of the Sanctuary, beginning with the Great Spirits, would not permit violence in the Sanctuary, but Darphy had not realized that he could not hear the voice of the Spirits at this time.

He would soon come to realize. What kind of place the Sanctuary was, how much power the Great Spirits had.

From the carriage that traveled on the new stretch of highway on the southwest direction of Yggurle Kingdom, the walls enclosing the Sanctuary could be seen.

Few carriages passed through the first barrier, and it did not take the carriage of the Sylphide family to pass through the gates.

「......is this where we will stay?」

「No, we aren’t staying here.」

「?」

Dante, overwhelmed by the extravagant accommodations of the completed Dejima, wondered if this was where they were staying, and Freesia denied it.

「It seems we would be accommodated in Takumi-san’s mansion in the center of the Sanctuary past this gate.」

「......did the Spirits inform you?」

「Dear, you should be able to hear it as well if you just calm down. How about composing yourself?」

When Freesia said so, Dante grew red. Darphy, who was unable to hear the voice of the Spirits, mistakenly thought that this was because he also wasn’t calm .

Leaving the security golems’ inspection, the carriage headed from the Dejima into the Sanctuary and the enormous Spirit Tree came into view.

「「............」」

「......the air is so pure.」

While Dante and Darphy were dumbfounded at the sight of the Spirit Tree, Freesia was impressed by the purity of thee air in the Sanctuary.
