Chapter 87.3: Coronation of the Queen
With the help of the loudspeaker magic, her voice echoes throughout the royal capital of Silesie.
From the other side of the balcony, the murmurs of the citizens can be heard.
It must have been a shock to them since they were suddenly gathered together and were told that a new queen had just acceded to the throne.
Moreover, it is Silhouette, who has never appeared in public before.
However, Queen Silhouette has already said what she has to say.
It will be my turn next. Standing next to the princess, I shouted as loudly as I could.
Soldiers, volunteer soldiers, and the citizens who protect Silesie. I am Sawatari Takeru, the hero of Silesie!
I stood in front of the crowd, folded my arms, and stopped talking. I waited patiently for the murmurs of the people to quiet down at the sudden proclamation of the queens coronation.
Shining mithril armor. I guess even at a distance, they can tell that Im a hero given my outfit.
I started hearing voices in the crowd saying Yeah, its hero-sama but I let it pass.
I will not say anything until the children stop talking. This is a speech technique that school principals often do.
After the people finally quieted down, I finally took a deep breath and spoke slowly in a quiet voice.
As you all know, a large army from Germania Empire is now moving toward the capital. I and you, my brave soldiers, will be there to intercept them before they reach the capital.nove(l)bi(n.)com
Perhaps Lyle-sensei, who was waiting at the side, smiling evilly, had sent people in the crowd to lead the cheers.
I look at Queen Silhouette. Shes smiling with tears in her eyes.
She opens her tiny lips to say something but the cheers of the people are too loud for me to hear anything. Even if I cant hear her, I know what she was saying.
From Silhouettes blue eyes, sparkling tears like the stars spilled out.
I hugged her tightly and shouted as loud as I could.
Today is the prelude to tomorrows victory and marriage. The castles gold storehouse and food storage will be open for everyone to enjoy!
I was overwhelmed by the cheers of the people and my heart was racing.
Queen Silhouette is saying something again so I brought my ears closer to her and she kissed me.
You promised to marry me so please win.
Yes, of course.
I finally heard the queens voice as I brought my face closer to her. Im happy to be kissed but I feel like it should be the other way around.
Oh well, we can kiss as much as we want at the wedding. However, the first step I should take is to win the war against the empire.
I, the hero, and Silhouette, the queen, continued to lean with each other while waving at the cheering crowd at the citys grand hall. The banquet has already started.
