Thanks to the aether resources within Void Zero, New Elidu is developing at an unusually rapid pace.
It's hard to imagine that this is the new Elidu, which has gone through internal strife, yet its development momentum is even stronger than before.
"That's good. I'll drive you there."
Upon hearing this, Mrs. Merlin nodded, grabbed the car keys on the table, and was about to pull Fagga out with her.
"Misha, come and see your brother off."
Hehe, Xiaoya, my Xiaoya... Ah? Oh, coming!
Fagga hesitated for a moment, but had no choice but to follow Mrs. Merlin after she had already gone out.
Outside the clan's territory, Fagga stood in front of Mrs. Merlin:
"Elder, this is enough. I can take the rest of the way myself."
Mrs. Merlin shrugged, brushed aside Fagga, opened the driver's door, and got in herself.
"We're already on the bus, so there's no need to take the last two steps. Get on."
Mrs. Merlin raised her chin and beckoned Fagga to get in the car.
"this..."
【Hey, just do it! Stop talking so much nonsense.】
Just as Fagga was hesitating, Misa opened the car door and forcefully pushed Fagga into the car.
Fagga couldn't help but smile bitterly.
But since Misa has already forced me into the car, there's nothing more to say, so I should just sit back and relax.
Buzz!
As Mrs. Merlin turned the car key, the engine roared to life.
Immediately afterwards, he pressed the clutch, shifted gears, and applied the handbrake in one smooth motion, and the red car sped away.
Fagar looked out the window and saw a bustling scene of cars and people, with advertisements projected on towering buildings and pedestrians coming and going on overpasses. The music from the shops along the street and the engine sounds of cars on the road mingled together, echoing the towering cranes under construction in the distance, creating a vibrant atmosphere.
A little while later, while waiting at a traffic light, Fagga suddenly caught a glimpse of a snow-white sedan behind him through the rearview mirror. The car window was decorated with the character "囍" (double happiness), and the hood was covered with delicate flowers.
"Is this someone getting married today?"
Fagar rolled down the car window and stuck his head out while waiting at a traffic light.
Looking back, wow!
What a grand spectacle! Cars adorned with the character "囍" (double happiness) formed a long line, stretching as far as the eye could see.
"What a grand spectacle! Such a long convoy; the cars behind are probably going to have to wait a while."
"Who's getting married today? There's such a long convoy of cars."
Fagga pulled his head back and then asked the two of them a question.
【have no idea. 】
Misa said casually, then turned over and reached into the trunk of the car to retrieve something.
After fiddling around a bit, Misa finally took out the two small boxes, then handed one of them to Fagga, saying:
"Here, put on the suit jacket inside; you'll need it for your wedding later."
Well...
Fagha's lips twitched.
Was it me...?
Mrs. Mei sighed, "Misha, we agreed to keep it a secret until the very last moment!"
Don't let that scoundrel's bad reputation fool you; he's incredibly clever, how could he not have guessed?
Misa retorted, then helped Fagga flip the box over.
"Put these on. It's so cold, you should be wearing long johns, right? I don't want to see anything unclean... Hey, why are you opening the car door? No, no, don't throw me out! I'm supposed to be your best man!"
After a long struggle, Misa finally escaped from Fagga's clutches.
It wasn't that Fagga had changed his mind, but rather that he was exhausted. He covered his face with his hands and muttered to himself, "Have my social circle become so narrow that I have to rely on my sister to be my best man?"
Cheer up! So many people want me to be their best man, but I wouldn't even consider it.
Misa patted Faga on the shoulder, comforting him: "Look on the bright side, at least it's not Black Fa who's your best man. If it were..."
"Shut up, don't say another word."
Okay...oh, the red light's about to end. Hurry up and change into your suit, I still need to wear this!
After the red light, Fagga changed into a suit.
Suddenly, the streetlights shone on Fagga's face.
Faga thought it was just another advertisement and didn't usually pay much attention to it, but for some reason, he inexplicably turned his head to look this time.
But upon looking at it, he suddenly froze.
The towering buildings along the street were all uniformly free of advertisements, instead adorned with lush greenery.
Looking into the distance, at the end of that green shade, there is a white archway.
Beneath the archway, the Sharkgirl, dressed in a pure white wedding gown, stood somewhat awkwardly, seemingly unsure of herself as it was her first time doing something like this.
[Hello, hello? Has it started yet?]
[It's been 30 seconds already, Eileen, start your lines (whispering)]
[Ruby, be quiet! I'm trying really hard to remember!]
Fagga chuckled. This was the Ellen he knew; she became cramped around people and wished she could disappear into the ground.
But perhaps because Ruby interrupted, Ellen's condition inexplicably improved, and she continued:
First of all, the first time I met him... I don't remember it very clearly, it must have been quite ordinary, right? We both met at school, and at first he was a very quiet person, practically invisible.
【Ellen, you're married now, say something nice!】
These are the questions you prepared for me; that's exactly what Fagga asked.
“Nonsense!”
Fagga crossed his arms and grumbled through the big screen, "Back then, I clearly had bricks from the construction site and stray cats from Sixth Street as friends!"
Upon hearing this, Misa cast a pitying glance at her, carefully considering her words to avoid hurting Fagga's feelings:
Brother, I feel so sorry for you.
"Shut up, you're the pathetic one!"
...
Okay, that's the end of that question. Next question... uh, your first impression of Fagar?
[I have absolutely no recollection of him! Besides knowing he always got first place and seemed pretty amazing, he was basically a pathetic guy with no friends.]
Oh, he used to like hiding in the shadows. I thought he was a flounder who liked to bury himself in the sand.
[Hiss~~~ Ellen, if you answer like that, Fagga might cry!]
Uh, really? Actually, without Ruby and everyone else, I guess I'd be pretty much the same.
Well... anyway, thank you for the compliment.
"...Oh!"
Faga, utterly dejected, slumped in his chair and murmured, "So this is how I saw Eileen at the beginning?"
"Hehe, hehehe..."
"No, bro, it's not over yet!"
Misa shook Fagga's body, shouting, "Although you're described as utterly despicable by my sister-in-law, she must have suddenly become interested in you! She must have seen through my illusions later!"
"..."
Fagga glanced at Misa silently, and after a long silence, said, "It's a bit strange, but anyway, thank you."
...
[Then, the next question... what drove me to be with him?]
Upon hearing this question, Fagga sat bolt upright, startling Misa, who jumped to the side, her mouth slightly agape, and murmured: "Wow, he's sitting up in shock from his deathbed!"
But Fagga ignored him, focusing intently on the voice of Ellen coming from the speakers outside.
Well... how should I put it? It just happened naturally. If I had to explain why...
Because we are family.
【Faga!!! Get off the bus!!!】
You said you'd put our names on the same household registration book!
Upon hearing this, Fagga felt as if a thunderbolt had struck his heart, and he abruptly looked up at the window.
It turned out that the car had driven off the asphalt road at some point, and in its place was a shady green area with a long red carpet spread on the ground.
At the end of the red carpet was a white archway.
Beneath the archway, the Sharkgirl Eileen, dressed in a pristine white dress, held a bouquet of vibrant flowers and raised a microphone, expressing the greatest courage a girl in love could muster in her life.
[A shark has its eye on you, and you can forget about ever turning back!]
...
The End
