Chapter 93: Eric and Ariel’s Wedding
Inside the luxurious palace.The prince t the ruler."Father, just as I said before, I barely escaped from a massive conspiracy. Thanks to Sage Rhine of the Rose Kingdom and his companion Aurora—they are the heroes who saved our kingdom!"By the way, since it's impossible for to marry the Princess of Enderland now, can I marry Ariel instead?"
The king was so overjoyed he almost fainted, his heart nearly leaping out of his chest.Prince Eric lowered his head, rapidly thinking of ways to counter his father's objections.
"When will you hold the wedding?" the king asked eagerly.
"Huh?" Prince Eric froze, his face like a carved statue.His father's words were completely unexpected, leaving him montarily speechless.
"Oh, right, Father, there's sothing I haven't told you yet: Ariel never actually lost her mory—she was just hiding her past."As Prince Eric spoke, his voice beca increasingly hesitant."Because... Ariel, she... she... she's not human. She's the rmaid princess from the Deep Sea Kingdom! She only grew legs after drinking a magic potion."
Summoning all his courage, Eric blurted out the cruel truth in one breath.His palms were drenched in sweat as he waited anxiously for his father’s response.
"So when is your wedding?" the king asked excitedly once again.
"Huh?" Prince Eric was stunned a second ti.
"Hurry and decide on a date for your wedding with Ariel, the sooner, the better," the king declared enthusiastically."It will be a grand ceremony, a symbol of friendship between the Western Asia Kingdom and the Sea Kingdom, a sign of reconciliation between humans and rmaids. Both the rfolk of the sea and the humans on land will bless you, my child!"
……
"Teacher, have you heard? Tomorrow is the day of Prince Eric and Princess Ariel’s wedding."
"Their wedding will take place on a ship. Many humans from the Western Asia Kingdom and rfolk from the Sea Kingdom will attend. There's never been such a unique wedding in history."
While practicing her swordplay under the sunlight, Aurora spoke to Rhine.
"Yes." Rhine nodded.
He could feel the imnse convergence of wish energy from all directions, taking shape.It included the wishes of the Western Asia Kingdom’s king, the Sea King, the five rmaid princesses, the rmaid grand matron, and countless ordinary rfolk. Based on Rhine’s estimation, even the Sea Hag’s wish would soon join the mix.
All these wishes, woven together by fate, rged into one.There was no doubt—the reward this ti would be on an entirely different level from before. It would be unimaginably powerful!
Realizing he was about to experience the greatest growth in his life, Rhine glanced at Aurora, who was still practicing her swordsmanship.
"Your swordsmanship has improved."
Compared to before, Aurora’s attacks, while still nimble, now carried an occasional forceful, sweeping montum—powerful and overwhelming.
"After battling that super warrior from Enderland, I feel like I imdiately grasped his combat techniques and combined them with my own," Aurora recalled, smiling in satisfaction."I’ve beco stronger."
Rhine couldn’t help but be amazed.This girl’s growth speed was simply terrifying!As long as she fought against powerful enemies, she could copy their combat talents and techniques. Eventually, she would undoubtedly beco a world-shaking hero.
Aurora looked down at the sword in her hand.—This sword, crafted by the best artisans of the Rose Kingdom at her parents' request, had already developed several nicks and cracks from the intense battles.
"Sigh, looks like ordinary weapons can’t withstand my combat intensity anymore," Aurora sighed.
"I’ll help you find a better weapon when the chance arises," Rhine said. "For a warrior destined to slay dragons, a suitable weapon is essential."
……
Finally, the wedding day arrived.
The beautiful flower ship sailed to the center of the ocean. Below them lay the Sea King’s palace.—The wedding was held on a ship because it represented the eting point of the human and rmaid worlds, symbolizing the harmony between the two nations. ℞ÄŊ𝖔ʙË𝐬
The sea was calm, the sun unusually gentle, the ocean breeze soft, and the waves sang in harmony.
The little rmaid, Ariel, finally donned the wedding dress of her dreams. In the presence of the priest, with joyful lodies in the air, she held Prince Eric’s hand and vowed eternal love.
From beneath the waves, the silver-crowned rmaid grand matron surfaced, while Ariel’s five sisters, hand in hand, sang upon the sea. At the heart of the ocean, the Sea King, holding his golden trident, bore witness to this beautiful mont.
The prophecy had co true—Prince Eric had married a princess from a neighboring kingdom!
A thousand rfolk from the Sea Kingdom and more than a dozen human ships from the Western Asia Kingdom encircled the flower ship where the wedding was taking place.As the bride and groom made their vows, all the rfolk began to sing in unison.
Their beautiful song, carried by the ocean breeze, drifted far, far away.
——
In the distance.
A small, elegant ship floated on the sea.
The little princess of Enderland gazed toward the wedding ship from afar.At such a distance, the bride and groom on the deck were nothing more than two tiny dots.
"Your Highness, would you like to get closer?"
The attendant behind her looked at the teary-eyed princess with so helplessness.
The princess said nothing. She simply listened to the enchanting song carried by the sea breeze, imrsed in the joyful lody, witnessing this sacred mont.
She crossed her arms over her chest, silently offering her blessings to the newlyweds.
Turning to her attendant, the princess said,"This is enough. We should head back."A place so sacred and beautiful—my presence would only ruin it."
The small ship turned, sailing toward Enderland.Riding the sea breeze, it drifted farther and farther away, until the beautiful song could no longer be heard.
