There was nothing else in this incident that I was just watching in silence.

Except for the other audiences who witnessed this historic moment.

"Holy Virgin... Holy Virgin!

"I didn't expect to be present at this moment"

"Spirit King! Virgin!"

The surroundings revealed a confusion with Zawazawa to read the situation. But gradually, when he finds out that the Spirit King has granted him protection, he slowly changes from confusion to joy.

The whole venue was engulfed with applause and cheer that just cracked like the ground.

"Virgin, huh? Miss Carol..."

Unexpectedly turning to His Highness for the whining I hear from next door. His Royal Highness did not lose his cool, but just turned his gaze to Mr. Ji and Anna.

Is the gaze more judging than the joy of the Virgin's birth, in contrast to the circumstances that may be considered in the future?

… Yes.

Just because Ms. Anna became a Virgin doesn't mean that her future will be the same. I'm not going to make mistakes like I did in the past.

Most importantly, what are you going to do without me believing in His Highness's feelings?

"Your Highness..."

"Rachel. … I was surprised by the boulder, too. I didn't expect the Spirit King to show up to provide protection."

"Yep."

"Are you worried about something? You look like that.

It's okay, it's going to be noisy all over the country for a while, but we're going in the right direction. "

"… yes, right. Yes, it's a pleasure."

His Highness, who saw my face, spoke kindly to me. I guess my anxious face wasn't hidden out. In contrast, he smiled calmly to reassure me.

Strangely enough, His Highness calls out to me. That alone makes the earlier anxiety a little lighter and creates a sense of security.

Right.

Anna's becoming a Virgin will not change our relationship. Because we have a different relationship than last time.

More than that, we have to rejoice that the Virgin has not been born in this country in three hundred years.

In the future, she will also be busy in her duties as Virgin. And I think that as fiancée of His Royal Highness Prince Wang, I should support it in the shadows.

I'm just a little concerned about Anna's attitude towards Her Highness. There are many bare gestures that concern His Highness.

What is the intent of the action?

… If Anna is also talking about Her Highness.

Such thoughts flatter my mind and haunt me.

… No, I have not just considered His Highness and I to be the same now.

At the end of his gaze, he grabbed a piece and thanked Anna beautifully, smiling happily and responding to everyone's applause.

Seeing that figure still doesn't make my anxiety go away.

… but now.

Thank God the Virgin was born in this country again.

The Moya Moya thing stayed, but I was forced to smile nicely and applaud like the others.

And turn your gaze to the Spirit King again.

Then the Spirit King moves on to Master Theodore and whispers something.

The Spirit King turned his nostalgic eyes to Master Theodore, softer than the gaze he had earlier directed at Mr. Anna.

The opposing Master Theodore also seems to be having a conversation without the appearance of cowering to the Spirit King after paying his fullest respect.

Is it because Master Theodore is the bearer of powerful magic that you two feel something similar when you stand side by side?

Or is it because the beauty of Master Theodore is also a floating away thing like the Spirit King?

"You look alike."

"Huh?"

"It's Spirit King and Theodore. I can't say what…, but I feel that the air feels very similar.

You may be disrespectful to the Spirit King, but you look like a brother or a parent or a child. "

"Me and I were feeling that way. If you look at it this way, you can see that Theodore is somewhere near the Spirit."

"Oh, because my abilities are out of standard."

When His Highness said so, he laughed like he was joking.

And watching the exchange between Master Theodore and the Spirit King from afar, Fu and the Spirit King turn their gaze here.

At that moment, the Spirit King says he is so far away, he is imprisoned by a strange feeling as if he were in front of him.

In my ear, I feel like I exist.

Who is it?

At the same time as I open my eyes to surprise, what I hear is the Rin of the Spirit King I heard earlier.

Maybe we'll meet again.

"Huh?"

Now...

Unexpectedly staring at the Spirit King, he still had not come near me and was only gazing at me next to Master Theodore, as he had done earlier.

"Um, now..."

"What's up?

Did His Royal Highness hear you earlier?

I think so, and I turn my gaze toward His Highness. But at the end of my gaze, Your Highness leans his neck strangely.

Didn't you hear that?

Were the words of the Spirit King now only to me?

'Then I shall return to my former forest.

Blessed is the future of this country '

Yes, when the Spirit King utters his words, there are many glowing petals floating in the universe throughout the venue.

It's so fantastic, it's like forgetting me temporarily for beauty that I don't think belongs in this world.

And everyone is indulging in that sight.

The sparkling flowers slowly disappear with the pale light.

Happily I stopped trying to extend my arm to that light.

For some reason I felt something unspoilt, like I shouldn't touch it.

After all, the Spirit King is special.

The future of this country will be a glorious one, just as Happy That and the Spirit King put it into words. Everyone doesn't doubt it, feels like something convincing.

And the Spirit King left the word, and when he stood again over the magic formations, he disappeared again with a strong light.

All that remained was doubt about the words left by the Spirit King earlier.

─ ─ I wonder what that meant.

I think about it, scrubbing my ear.

Maybe we'll see each other again?

But the Spirit King only appears in the ritual of summons...

While I conceived of myself as a guru, and with some floating noise around me unquenched, a bell rang to let me know that the ritual was over.

At the same time, clerics and magicians sitting in the VIP table take their seats early enough.

That would be, I think.

Whatever, it's the Virgin. It would be a celebration to name the country.

Besides, the Virgin will be deposited with the Church. The Church will be in a hurry to welcome the first Virgin in a while.

I raised my gaze at the signs of His Highness sitting next to me getting up softly.

His Highness turned to me.

"Rachel, talk to Theodore. You want to come with me? I suppose there's something you'd like to hear?

"Yes, I'll come with you"

And I followed the arena with His Royal Highness and Cyril in pursuit of Lady Theodore, who was already blind from the venue.
