Announcement

“Th, this is?”

I ended up losing my words at the overwhelming view.
As for why; it’s because the citizens who live in this Royal Capital were gathering before us, who alighted the carriage.

Here, where they gathered, is a location within the Royal Palace, the balcony for the King to address the soldiers and citizens whenever something happens.
Because of that, it can accommodate quite a number of people.

If I exclude the soldiers who are here for security reasons, just the citizens; there are probably about 20 thousand people.
A quarter of the citizens in the Royal Capital have gathered here.

We were dropped off from the carriage by the stairs that connect to the Royal Palace’s balcony.
Alexia and the others are looking and laughing at us, who making surprised expressions; Priscilla and company, and Dargris and company, who were riding a different carriage, are making the same expression as me.
Viscount Kennus probably knew about it since he’s behaving normally.

And on the balcony, there is the King, the Beast King, and even the Pope.
They’d already arrived huh.
Beside them is Caro, who secretly waves at me.
Lining up behind the Kings are the Queens; the Princes; and Princess Marina; and behind them, lining up with the Ministers were Alene-sensei and Madam Eliza.
I wonder if they’re Sieg and Eris’ stand-ins?

“Everybody.
Our stars today have arrived! Give them a round of applause!”

The King confirms that we have alighted and shouts towards the citizens.
Immediately after, the citizens, who heard that, cheer and applaud in harmony.
……this is amazing.
I was then pulled on the hand by Caro, who’d come down the stairs before I know it.

“Come now, let’s go!”

I was pulled on the hand by Caro on the right side and Alexia on the left side.
Ferris follows behind; Aerith and company follow behind her.

“Kyururu!”

In the midst of going up the stairs, Eclat flew over to the top of my head.
I guess she probably wanted to see the scenery from a high spot.
I was thinking, how about flying if that’s the case, but it seems she prefers the top of my head.
And from the surroundings

“Uwaa! Adorableー!”

“That’s a Dragon, right?”

“Amazin’, he’s rearing a Dragon”

“My adorable Eclat-chaーn!”

“Baby Dragon-tan, haa, haa”

there are various voices from the citizens who saw Eclat.
……it feels like I just heard Levine-san’s voice.
I can’t tell even if I look in the citizens’ direction since there are too many people.
Is it my imagination? I also remembered the last fellow’s face.
Don’t you ever get close to Eclat.

We’re going up to the balcony while hearing such voices.
When we finish going up the stairs, only Alexia, Ferris, Caro and I were guided to the front of the Kings.

“Everybody! I have gathered you today to introduce this person! Leivelt・Runwalker; there may also be people who know this person, but he is one of the people who stood at the frontline and protected Nanor Kingdom during the goblin outbreak that occurred at the Baron Mangus Territory.
And this youngster also played a role at the Royal Palace invasion incident 4 years ago!”

In response to the King’s speech, the citizens raise their voices going, ‘Oohー’.
Alexia proudly puffs up her chest.
The citizens who saw that raise voices that are different from cheers.
The men are looking too much.
And then the Beast King goes out to the front, changing places with the King,

“Exactly! 4 years ago, he even sacrificed his own arm for the sake of saving my daughter, who was captured by the enemy, and saved her!”

In response to those words of the Beast King, the citizens shout, and especially the women, they raise their voices going, ‘Kyaa~!’.
Women seem like they’ll like those kinds of stories huh.
A knight who risks his life and fight for the sake of saving a princess’ life, type of story.

In contrast to that, Ferris became despondent.
I guess she’s remembering what happened that time huh.
I hold Ferris’ hand, making sure that everybody can’t see it.
Ferris, who’s hanging her head, raises her head and looks at me, so I smile at her.

Ferris had been working quite hard since that time and she’d improved to the extent that she won’t lose to Alexia and Aerith.
It won’t end up like that time anymore.
Ferris also looks in my direction and smile at me.

And then, changing places with the Beast King, the Pope goes out in front,

“When he came to my country, my capital was exposed to the threat of a Demon Race and an Ancient Dragon.
With also the Knights’ sacrifices, we managed to repel the threat somehow, but if he had not defeated the Demon Race, there probably would have been even more sacrifices! It was thanks to him that numerous lives were saved!”

When the Pope says that, the citizens shout again.
Furthermore, the enthusiasm is gradually rising.
Caro looks in my direction and smiles.
And then the King goes out to the front once again,

“It is imperative that I reward him, who racked up that many achievements.
However, I took into consideration that it is meaningless even if I present a court rank to him, who is still a student.
Over there, in accordance with the wishes of the people themselves, I will reward him with this.
Everybody, to the front”

I was then pulled by the hand by Alexia and the others, who go out in front.
Don’t tell me this is.

“We, the Nanor Kingdom, hereby announce the engagement between Leivelt・Runwalker and the First Princess, Alexia・Nanor!”

“We, the Worvest Beastfolk Country, hereby announce the engagement between Leivelt・Runwalker and the First Princess, Ferris・Worvest!”

“We, the Arcadia State, hereby announce the engagement between Leivelt・Runwalker and the First Imperial Princess, Caroline・Arcadia!”

In the instant the Kings of the 3 countries respectively made their announcement, the citizens ended up falling silent because of their overwhelming astonishment.
I guess that’s a given.
Even if there were precedents of the princess’ betrothment, it was impossible for it to be with 3 countries.
However, cheers erupted in the next instant.
……this is amazing.

“Hey, Lei.
Here the main star has to do something”

“Yeah.
Finish it off with style”

“It is the debut of our husband after all”

Alexia, Ferris, and Caro say to me in that order.
Even if you tell me to do something, what should I do…….
In any case, I take a step forward from everybody.
The citizens became quiet with just that. Uwaa, this is nerve-wracking.

I take Rolgar out from the Item Ring and strongly raise it towards the sky.
In that instant, a ray of flash soars high up into the sky from Rolgar and lightning surges around that flash.

“Kyuu, Kyuu!”

Eclat chirrups happily.
I wonder if she’s happy because it’s the same attribute as her? The citizens are being fascinated by the pillar of light that stretches high up in the sky endlessly, but one by one, they start cheering, and now, it’s the loudest cheer today.
It’s slightly embarassing, but I guess it means that I’m recognised by everybody.
Like this, our engagements were announced.
