Chapter 39 The Wedding I closed my eyes, and a sense of tragic grandeur washed over me. ...
Time flies so fast. Before I could figure out how to reply to Hoya, the wedding day arrived.
At midnight, I was gently awakened by the maids and began to wash and dress.
I was already standing on the steps in front of the stone hall when it was just getting light.
Snowflakes rushed towards me, and the maids quickly shielded me with their umbrellas.
The once simple hall has been decorated in a magnificent and luxurious style. The mottled walls have been covered with gold wallpaper, all the candlesticks have been lit, and the gray stone bricks have been polished so that they can reflect people's images, making it look clean and beautiful.
I glanced at Bernard, dressed in his finest attire, before being surrounded by a crowd and escorted to the throne. Meanwhile, Eve, dressed in a flowing white gown and wearing a semi-transparent veil, walked toward me accompanied by her sister Hoya.
Thinking back on my life so far, I've had it all. I've experienced disasters, turmoil, being switched bodies, marriage, and what's to come...
I closed my eyes and felt a sense of tragic grandeur.
Aife and I stood before a priest in white robes.
For some reason, my gaze fell on "me" sitting not far away, and "me" happened to be looking at me as well.
Our eyes met.
I don't know what "I" am thinking, but my eyes are very gentle.
After a while, the priest in white robes stopped chanting and gestured for the bride to begin kissing the groom.
The bride smiled sweetly and gently, tiptoed slightly, and was about to kiss my lips.
Suddenly, there was a loud thud, as if something heavy had fallen to the ground. It turned out that Bernard had slid off his chair, causing the chair to fall to the floor with a thud. He looked at me with a wronged expression...
I stood there stunned. The bride was furious, Hoya was smiling seductively, and Mrs. Jane and several maids looked displeased.
The generals and other officers almost burst out laughing. "What a jealous man!"
Seeing that Bernard was about to get up, I was afraid that he would cause trouble again, so I quickly avoided Ai's pouting lips.
Eve made no attempt to hide her disappointment, and instead glared directly at Bernard.
Bernard pretended not to see it, but Hoya laughed even more seductively.
Amidst the chaos and disarray, the ceremony ended hastily. Aifu was hurriedly led back to her room by the maids, while I was surrounded by the generals offering toasts.
I'm not good at drinking; I usually only have a small drink at most. Now, I've been forced to drink ten or so cups in a row, and I know things are going to get bad.
Just as I was about to make an excuse to pee, a loud bang suddenly came from outside the stone hall.
I was completely stunned.
The entire stone hall shook violently, and countless lime and dust fell down. Everyone screamed and scattered like frightened birds. A huge amount of heat suddenly surged in from outside the hall.
My ears were ringing, and before I could even react, my right hand was suddenly grabbed and pulled away by Bernard, who had been sitting in the corner drinking.
