Lilica walked towards Kazuya, standing opposite of him as she looked at him affectionately. They hadn’t seen each other for only a few hours but it felt like eternity.

As the two were in their own little world, the officiant spoke up, “Friends and Family, we are gathered today to celebrate one of life’s greatest moments, to give recognition to the worth and the beauty of love, and to ad our best wishes to the words which shall unite Lilica Stell and Kazuya Valen in marriage.”

“As an expression that you are joining hearts and lives, please join hands while facing each other, to recite your vows.”

His speech brought the two back to reality. Kazuya took Lilica’s hands as he smiled at her affectionately.

“Do you, Kazuya Valen, take Lilica Stell to be your wedded wife, to cherish in love and in friendship, in strength and in weakness, in success and in disappointment, to love her faithfully, today, tomorrow, and for as long as the two of you shall live?”

“I do.” Kazuya declared loudly and determinedly as he looked at Lilica seriously.

“Do you, Lilica Stell, take Kazuya Valen to be your wedded husband, to cherish in love and friendship, in strength and in weakness, in success and in disappointment, to love her faithfully, today, tomorrow, and for as long as the two of you shall live?”

“I do.” Lilica emotionally said as her eyes started becoming watery once again.

“Kazuya Valen, please place the ring on Lilica Stell’s finger and repeat after me; With this ring, I pledge my love and life to you.” The officiant said as a servant appeared with the rings.

Kazuya took the beautiful ring and pledged, “With this ring, I pledge my love and life to you.”

“Lilica Stell, please place the ring on Kazuya Valen’s finger and repeat after me; With this ring, I pledge my love and life to you.”

Lilica also took the ring and placed in on Kazuya’s finger as she pledged, “With this ring, I pledge my love and life to you.”

“I now pronounce you husband and wife. You may now share the first kiss of your marriage.” The officiant pronounced.

Kazuya took off Lilica’s veil, revealing her beautiful face. He placed one hand on her face with his slightly shaking hands. He had been feeling really nervous so he couldn’t stop his hands from shaking. He then pulled her in gently for a deep kiss. Lilica also kissed him back as tears flowed down her beautiful face.

The crowd cheered for the newly wedded couple happily.

The officiant then announced, “We will now commence the blood exchanging ceremony.”

The servants moved a table and chair for the couple to sit. On top of the table was two needles, two cloths, two pens and an unfilled marriage license.

“The bride and groom may fill in the marriage license.”

Kazuya took the pen and wrote down his information beautifully. He then passed the paper to Lilica for her to fill her part.

Lilica took her pen and filled out her information. When the officiant saw that the both of them had finished filling in, he announced, “Kazuya Valen, please use your blood to sign the marriage license.”

Kazuya took the needle on the table and pricked his finger and let his blood drop onto the marriage license. The moment his blood came in contact with the license, the paper glowed.

“The bride may take in the groom’s blood.”

Kazuya moved his finger towards Lilica’s mouth for her to drink his blood. Lilica was licked his blood and soon, the wound closed up.

“Lilica Stell, please use your blood to sign the marriage license.”

Lilica then used the needle to prick herself and moved her finger to the paper to lt her blood drop onto the marriage license.

As soon as her blood met the paper, the paper shone and rolled itself up, activating the lock magic on itself. This meant that the marriage license now took effect and became a certificate that the couple could keep. The only ones who could open the certificate would become the newly wedded couple and the paper was no longer editable.

“The groom may take in the bride’s blood.”

Lilica moved her finger toward Kazuya’s mouth. Kazuya licked her finger, completing the blood exchanging ceremony.

“I now pronounce the completion of the blood exchanging ceremony. Your life spans are now shared. May your marriage be filled with happiness.” The officiant pronounced as he blessed the couple.

The couple held hands and smiled happily at each other. Now all the ceremonies for the marriage was completed. They were finally truly husband and wife. The couple stood up and bowed to the crowd. They then walked out of the church together as a couple. The bridesmaids and groomsmen also followed the couple out in pairs.

Ventina, Sharon, and Ellie were all feeling envious as they wondered when their turn to be brides would come. As Ventina, Sharon, Ellie and Lilienne were there as bridesmaids, they dressed in the same tone as Lilica; pale blue.

Ven and Ventina was the first pair to follow the couple out and Ventina whispered loud enough for Ven to hear, “I also want to get married…”

Ven was a little surprised when he heard her whispering. He hadn’t thought about marriage that much. He had just blurted out marriage back then since Zeke was also in the room. Now that his girlfriend started thinking about marriage, it seemed like it was time to seriously consider this matter.

Sharon and Zeke were the next pair and Sharon tried to drop some more hints for Zeke, “How I wish I could get married too… I wonder if there isn’t anyone who would want me…”

However, Zeke didn’t really understand her hint and thought that she was just feeling envious of Lilica. Even though he would usually be able to pick up such hints if it were another woman, it seems that his senses just didn’t work on who he liked.

“I’m sure you’ll also look beautiful on your wedding day.” Zeke replied as he felt a pang to his heart. He had imagined Sharon in her wedding dress and truly felt that she would’ve looked perfect in it. But the groom was most probably not him.

Hearing his compliment, Sharon’s heart raced. She was happy that he thought she was beautiful. She had never heard him compliment her like this before.

The next pair was Ellie and Ron. Ron didn’t really care about this since he wasn’t so interested in marriage. On the other hand, Ellie was looking at him expectantly as she said, “It would be great if we could get married soon.”

“Huh? Did you say something?” Ron asked since his mind was somewhere else. He was thinking of what kind of delicious food was going to be served.

Ellie sighed disappointingly and replied, “Nothing.”

Lilienne and Keith was next. Since Kazuki was Kazuya’s brother, he didn’t have to be the groomsmen.

“So, how’s it going with Rona?” Lilienne teased Keith.

“I think that we’re progressing. I even successfully invited her to my house the other day!” Keith proudly replied.

“Really?” Lilienne asked as she felt surprised. Normally Keith would always be unsuccessful in his attempts to court girls since his personality just aroused women’s motherly instinct. Ths made people view him as family rather than a potential lover.

“It’s true!” Keith replied determinedly. Actually, thee only reason he was successful in inviting her was because he said that he had forgotten one of the papers for the regarding the wedding at his house and asked her to go get it with him. That way, they would have more time to discuss on the wedding plans.

“It seems like my little brother has finally grown!” Lilienne playfully said.

“O-Of course!” Keith stuttered. He couldn’t possibly tell the truth that Rona just had a cup of tea and discussed the plans. After she was done, she immediately left and nothing happened.

It was at that time that Lilienne noticed a possessive gaze directed towards her. She didn’t even have to look to know whose gaze it was. Kazuki was looking at her intently, not wanting her to laugh as she converse with Keith since he was possessive of her smile.

Lilienne turned to look at her husband with a helpless smile, assuring him that she wouldn’t talk that much with other men.
