"Hm! Then I won’t think too much about it."
Seryu nodded.
She was still sowhat naive when it ca to these things, but all she wanted was to stay by her master's side—as long as she wasn’t separated from him, that was enough.
Esdeath, Kuro, Chelsea, Mine, and Seryu. With this, Blayn had truly committed to "leaving no regrets," now standing firmly with five won at the sa ti.
...
"Recently, the Emperor obtained so interesting things from the Western nations. One of them is called a 'wedding dress.' It’s supposedly an outfit that brides wear when they get married. Let’s go try it on."
Today, Esdeath dragged Blayn along to try on wedding attire.
However, Chelsea, Seryu, and Mine happened to be nearby. The mont they overheard, there was no way they were letting Esdeath and Blayn do sothing like this alone.
"By the way, where’s Kuro?" Chelsea suddenly noticed soone missing.
"Judging by the ti, she should be back soon," Blayn replied.
Kuro had been absent for a while because Aka had taken her to the legendary secret spring.
That spring was indeed effective in reducing the side effects of the drugs in Kuro’s body, gradually weakening her dependency. If things continued like this, her reliance on the dicine would eventually fade completely.
Blayn had made Kuro start tapering off the drug much earlier than in the original story. Unlike in the original, where it was too late by the ti she stopped, leading to severe aftereffects, this ti, things were turning out far better.
Just as Blayn and Chelsea were talking about Kuro, she returned—alongside Aka.
"Commander, were you guys just talking about ?"
Kuro’s condition looked noticeably better than before. She hadn’t been in bad shape before, but now she seed even more energetic. Clearly, the secret spring had been very effective.
"We’re going to try on wedding dresses—the outfits brides wear when they get married. If you’d co back any later, we might not have waited for you," Chelsea said with a grin.
"Wedding…?"
Kuro instantly understood what that ant and imdiately responded, "I’m going!"
And just like that, the group set off together.
Even Aka ended up tagging along, though it was clear she was mostly there for Kuro’s sake.
...
Imperial Capital—Royal Palace.
The wedding dresses were stored in the palace, along with formal suits for the groom.
As they changed, Blayn was the first to finish putting on his suit. It fit him quite well.
At so point, however, Spear, the daughter of Pri Minister Chouri, also appeared.
Curious about the wedding dresses, she had co to take a look—only to unexpectedly run into Blayn and the others.
She hesitated, feeling like she might’ve walked in at the wrong ti. But then again, maybe it was the perfect timing.
So she decided to be bold. Otherwise, next ti, her father would tease her again about being too strong to find a husband.
"Um… Mr. Blayn, can I try one on too?" Spear asked, her face slightly flushed.
"Of course, go ahead," Blayn said casually.
To him, it was just a trial fitting—there was nothing to make a big deal about.
Then, when Esdeath and the others finished changing into their wedding dresses, they discovered that today’s "bride lineup" had unexpectedly gained another mber—Spear.
Esdeath, Kuro, Seryu, Chelsea, Mine, Aka, and Spear. Among them, Aka and Spear seed to feel the most out of place.
There were no caras to capture the mont, but the palace had a dedicated painter who immortalized the scene on canvas.
And this mont would forever be etched in their hearts.
