For Louise, she was in a daze for the rest of the day.
She was woken up by Waludo early in the morning, then brought to the church, changed into the clothes that Albion had prepared for the bride, and even put on a bridal crown. Logically speaking, this was the scene that Louise had been longing for, but for some reason, she was not happy at all, and even a little afraid.
"What should I do? SABER？”
"You have to make your own choice."
Faced with Louise's uneasy question, the red ponytail smiled and patted her on the shoulder.
"You've made a choice, and you have to face the consequences. But no matter what, I'll be by your side."
"… Hmm."
Hearing this, Louise finally seemed to be relieved. She smiled at the red ponytail, and at this time, the wedding was about to begin.
Or rather, it had already begun.
The whole wedding was very simple. After all, this was the final battle. There was no one else present except for the Prince of Wales. There were no guests, no guards, and it did not look romantic at all. However, the people present did not seem to care much about this.
"Then, let the ceremony begin."
Looking at the two people in front of him, the Prince of Wales nodded, then began to read the edict of the ceremony.
"Groom, Viscount Waludo, are you willing to swear in the name of the ancestors that you will respect her, love her, and marry her?"
"I swear."
Faced with the question of the Prince of Wales, Viscount Waludo answered, then the Prince looked at Louise.
"Bride, Louise Francis Brown Du La Valliere, are you willing to swear in the name of the ancestors …"
"…"
Standing quietly beside Viscount Waludo, Louise did not feel the slightest happiness at the moment. On the contrary, she felt like a sacrifice to a monster, about to be swallowed by the monster. And what made Louise even more uneasy was that this feeling came from none other than Waludo beside her!
Save me! Someone save me!
"Then, bride, are you willing?"
"I …"
Hearing the Prince's question, Louise was silent for a moment. As long as she nodded and answered "I am willing", then the ceremony would be over. But …
"I …"
However, just as Louise was about to open her mouth to refuse, she suddenly felt her body suddenly sink.
Then, her entire body seemed to be controlled by something, and she couldn't move at all.
He couldn't speak, nor could he open his mouth!
Is this … magic? Is someone using magic to control me?
"I …"
I don't want to!
"Humph."
However, just as Louise slowly opened her mouth to speak, she suddenly heard a cold snort in her ear. The next moment, the magic that bound Louise was suddenly released, and at the same time, a low scream came from outside the church.
"I'm not willing!"
Louise shouted as soon as the magical restraints were released. Faced with this sudden development, both the crown prince and Waludo were stunned.
"Bride, you don't want to?"
"Yes!"
As she spoke, Louise took two steps back, distancing herself from Viscount Waludo.
"Viscount Warudo, what do you want? You actually used magic to control me! "
"What? Did you do such a thing? "
Hearing Louise's words, the crown prince was also shocked, and he looked at Waludo with dissatisfaction. A trace of panic appeared on Waludo's face, then he smiled at Louise again.
"I'm sorry, my lovely Louise, I was just too anxious. Because look, aren't you very nervous? I'm afraid that you won't be able to complete the ceremony, so I want to do this … "
"No, I don't want to hear it, I don't want to marry you!"
Hearing Louise's clear refusal, Waludo's expression suddenly changed. He reached out and grabbed Louise.
"Louise, I will have the whole world, and for this, you must! Your ability! Your power! "
"My, my power?"
Louise looked at Waludo blankly, not knowing what to say for a while. Waludo, on the other hand, shouted as if he was possessed.
"Louise, have you forgotten what I've said before? You will grow into an excellent magician who won't lose to the ancestors! It's just that you didn't notice this talent yourself. You summoned the legendary familiar 'Gundaruu', this is the best proof! A metal dragon that can soar in the sky! If we can get that, the whole world will kneel at our feet! "
"What, what are you talking about …" Louise was completely terrified.
Louise was completely scared out of her wits. In her memory, Waludo always had a gentle smile on his face, but this man in front of her had a twisted expression, looking like a bandit who was about to attack her.
"Hey, Viscount, since you've been dumped, you should be more straightforward …"
At that moment, the crown prince also walked over and grabbed Waludo's hand, but Waludo pushed him away.
"Get out of my way!"
Waludo pushed the crown prince away, and the crown prince was also stunned.
"You …!"
"Louise, don't you understand? Your talent is necessary to me. "
"You … … you … …"
At this moment, Louise was also trembling with rage.
"I get it now. So you don't love me at all. You only love my non-existent ability. You actually want to marry me for this reason? That's an insult to me, you … you … you …"
Louise opened her mouth to say something, but in the end, she just stomped her foot angrily.
"You're just lusting after my body, you lowly b * tch!!"
"Pfft!!"
Hearing this, Red Ponytail, who was watching from the side, almost spat out a mouthful of water. At that moment, Waludo showed that gentle expression again.
"Can't I even say that? My lovely Louise! "
"No way, who would marry you!"
"Is that so …"
Waludo let out a long sigh and lowered his head.
"This time, I was hoping to capture your heart. I thought you were very simple and easy to get, but I didn't expect things to turn out like this. Forget it, since that's the case, let's achieve another goal first."
"Goal?"
"That's right."
The corners of Waludo's mouth curled up into a sneer.
"I have three goals for this trip. Marrying you is only one of them. Since I can't achieve that, I can achieve the other two first."
"The other two …"
"The first is you, Louise, but unfortunately, it failed. The second goal is the letter from Anlietta in your pocket, Louise."
"What?"
Hearing this, Louise was stunned.
"As for the third goal …"
At this moment, Wardt suddenly picked up his wand and chanted an incantation at the crown prince. Accompanied by the speed of light, the wand whistled towards the crown prince's chest. However, at this moment, a red light flashed.
Clang!!
The wand in Waludo's hand was cut in half. The next moment, a bright red sword burning with flames pressed against his neck.
"Hey, have you forgotten about my existence?"
The red ponytail yawned and narrowed her eyes at Waludo. A clown is nothing to be afraid of, but you're not giving me face by acting so atrociously in front of me.
The crown prince finally reacted and glared at Waludo angrily.
"Are you a member of the Restoration Alliance?"
"That's right!"
Seeing that he had been exposed, Waludo admitted it without hesitation.
"I'm a member of the Restoration Alliance of Albion."
"Why?!"
Hearing this, Louise couldn't help but shout in surprise.
"You're a noble of Torristine!"
"We're doing this for the future of this continent. For this reason, we formed a cross-border alliance. Harukginia will be united in our hands, and we will reclaim the holy land where the ancestors descended!"
"I won't comment on your methods, but your ideals are good."
The red ponytail nodded. Waludo smiled when he heard her thoughts.
"Can you understand our thoughts? Gangdaruu? "
"Correction, I'm Saber. To be honest, your motives don't matter to me. Whether you want to rule the world or reclaim the holy land, no matter what, the unification of a civilization is always a good thing. Of course, there will inevitably be all kinds of troubles."
The red ponytail shrugged and replied. Emperor Qin was an emperor throughout the ages, but he wasn't a saint either. The so-called path of the king to unify the world was just the main theme in the game. In reality, Emperor Qin's methods of conquering the Six Kingdoms weren't any better than the Restoration Alliance's, and his ideals weren't more noble than the Restoration Alliance's. But regardless of his motives, methods, and means. At least in terms of results, a unified Chinese civilization lasted for thousands of years and didn't become the dust of history like other ancient civilizations.
That was enough.
As for the 100,000 surrendered soldiers who were killed, the laborers who died at the foot of the Great Wall, the burning of books, and so on, they were naturally unavoidable.
"Then, are you willing to help us?"
"I'll leave it to Master."
As she spoke, the red ponytail looked at Louise.
"As I said, the ideals aren't bad, but there's no shortage of people like you who want to unify the world. Hundreds of years ago and in the future, there were many people with similar ideas. Now there's the Restoration Alliance, and in one or two hundred years, there might be another alliance trying to rule the world. So, I don't care. It's up to Master's choice. At least for me, ruling the world isn't something I should be particularly concerned about. "
"Louise …"
Hearing this, Waludo looked at Louise again. Louise clenched her teeth and threw off the bridal cloak on her body.
"You're a traitor, and I won't forgive traitors!"
"Then there's no other way."
Hearing this, the red ponytail shrugged. Before Waludo could say anything, she turned the sword in her hand and pierced it directly into his heart. The next moment, flames burst out and quickly burned Waludo to ashes.
"…"
Watching Warudo completely disappear in the flames, Louise was at a loss. She stood there blankly, as if she had lost her soul. The red ponytail waved the sword in her hand, then looked at the crown prince.
"I didn't expect this guy to be a traitor."
"That's right …"
The Prince of Wales looked a little bitter at the moment, while the red ponytail stared at him.
"Honestly, is it worth it?"
"…"
Faced with the red ponytail's question, the crown prince was silent for a moment.
"I've decided that this is the last thing I can give her."
"A bootlicker will end up with nothing, Your Royal Highness."
The red ponytail shook her head helplessly.
"You're about to lose your country, aren't you going to consider leaving something as a souvenir?"
"This is a man's dignity."
Having said that, Wales took off the ring on his finger and handed it to the red ponytail.
"Give this to her for me."
"Okay … Then we're leaving. We won't meet again, Your Royal Highness."
"I wish you all the best. I'm going to join the battle too."
Picking up the wand again, the crown prince nodded to Louise and the red ponytail, then quickly walked out of the church. At this time, the red ponytail came to Louise and patted her face.
"Have you come back to your senses? It's time for us to go. "
"Ah … Um …"
Louise was still sleepwalking at this moment, nodding dumbly. Red Ponytail did not say anything, but directly pulled her into the fighter, and then flew away. As for the battleships surrounding the palace, of course, she did not care about them at all.
"Boom!!!"
The closed door was blown open, and a group of heavily armed soldiers rushed in. Seeing these soldiers, the expression of the old king sitting on the throne did not change in the slightest. The Prince of Wales, who was standing next to him, curled the corner of his mouth slightly, revealing a smile. Then, a man wearing a hat and dressed like a cleric walked in.
"I didn't expect it to be you."
Looking at the priest in front of him, the old king snorted coldly.
"Oliver Cromwell."
"Hohoho, hello, Your Majesty. I'm the current commander-in-chief of the Restoration Alliance, but that's just the result of a vote in the Assembly of Nobles. "
"Hmph, I didn't expect you to come in person."
"After all, this is a historic moment. How can I be absent?"
The man called Cromwell raised his hands.
"The history of Albion will be completely changed from today onwards! The royal family of Albion will become history, and we will be the creators of a new history! We were chosen, and we will unite as one to take back the Holy Land from those dreadful fairies. This is the mission given to us by the ancestors! "
"You're dreaming."
Hearing Cromwell's words, the Prince of Wales snorted coldly, but Cromwell did not care.
"In any case, you're the only ones left here now. To be honest, I was worried that you might have escaped on that terrifyingly fast steel dragon."
"The royal family of Albion will never escape, and …"
Having said that, the Prince of Wales raised his head.
"We've received the blessings of the ancestors."
"The blessings of the ancestors?"
Hearing this, Cromwell was a little puzzled. He raised his head and followed Wales' gaze. Then, his eyes widened in surprise. Above the hall, a ball shining like a star caught his attention.
"That, that's …?"
"Feel the wrath of the ancestors, Cromwell! This is your retribution! "
As the Prince of Wales' voice trailed off, the ball of light suddenly emitted a dazzling brilliance. The next moment, darkness erupted and spread in all directions, shrouding everything.
"— — — —!"
It was only for an instant.
Looking from afar, the entire Royal City trembled violently. Then, a huge rotating black hole suddenly appeared out of thin air. It expanded rapidly, swallowed everything within it, and disappeared in an instant.
Royal City, the castle, everything had disappeared without a trace. Only the obvious circular gap remained on the ground, proving what had just happened.
"What, what was that?!"
Standing on the deck, the commander of the warship stared dumbfoundedly at the scene. He could not imagine what had just happened in front of him.
