“That skinny woman caught Sebek?”

“I’m sure she’s lying.”

In a way, it was a reasonable doubt. read only at salmonlatte . com.

“Maybe she’s trying to attract attention.”

“Because she’s from a family of low status.”

It was private soldiers who dragged the demon beast’s body, so of course, there was a sound of doubt about her achievement. read only at salmonlatte . com.

In fact, the authenticity of the case didn’t matter. read only at salmonlatte . com.

At the banquet, it was basic to cook and serve the game that the participants hunted. read only at salmonlatte . com.

At least one of the emperor’s knights caught a waterfowl which became the highlight of the banquet. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.The waterfowl, cooked in its flying form, decorated the center of the table.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

Several roosters and goats that were caught were placed around it and the dinner hall was decorated. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.The banquet hall was somewhat full of complaints because of the sparse selection. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.This was because it was too underwhelming for a table of the banquet that was held for the first time in five years.read only at salmonlatte . com.

In the middle of the banquet hall, there was the head of a demon the size of a house. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.The servants decorated it with flowers and ribbons. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.Its figure was truly spectacular.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.read only at salmonlatte . com.

This annoying watermark is not there.The core of a demon beast has been used to make magic tools since ancient times. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.In particular, Sebek’s leather was strong, making it a perfect material for armor. read only at salmonlatte . com.

Ragnar introduced her to everyone he came across because it was his fiancee who caught the demon beast. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.Those who attended the banquet did not believe his words, but they could not criticize him in front of their eyes. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.So there was no other way but to just whisper behind their back.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

Christa was again aware of whispers throughout the banquet.

The banquets she attended before were largely victory banquets. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.Even so, most of the banquets were informal, and she only showed her face a bit as soon as it started, and then took off.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

On the other hand, today’s banquet was attended by people prestigious enough to be invited by the royal family. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.In other words, it was not a place for an illegitimate child to participate but she was able to because she was with Ragnar.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

Then Ragnar reached out for her hand. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.At that moment, all her focus was on it. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.Strangely, she felt like all the noise around her was blocked.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

“Will you give the honor of your first dance to your fiance, who failed to offer you this year’s game?”

It was embarrassing for her to dare to dance with such grandiose adjectives. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.But she couldn’t say no.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

“Yes.”

The two held their hands together.

“Have you ever danced?”

Christa recalled memories of the past.

“I learned it as a basic skill at the training center…….”

She had never actually danced before. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.In the first place, Christa had barely participated in such a banquet, so it was inevitable.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

“That’s enough.”

The musician plays music. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.A slow and light dance of two beats began. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.It was definitely a melody she remembered. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.A large hand covered her tense hand.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

“What if I make a mistake?”

“I couldn’t even hunt, so I can sacrifice my feet.”

Christa laughed at the remark. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.She actually stepped on his foot three times, but Ragnar didn’t show any signs.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

The second dance was easier because she had become accustomed to it. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.However, unlike the first time when she simply focused on the movement, this time, the act of the dance itself bothered her.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

Dancing is more about putting your body closer to your partner than she initially thought. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.Above all, they often met each other’s eyes. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.Seeing their gazes meet inside the circle created by their hands feels strange somehow.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

Her cheeks are burning up when she starts to realize it. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.Dancing was, so to speak, quite dangerous. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.In particular, the repeated body movements of winding the waist and moving away and in close contact reminded her of the act of bonding between men and women.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

“What are you thinking?”

“Oh, nothing…….”

As soon as the dance song was over, Christa quickly headed to the table, saying she should rest. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.With a determination not to dance in the future.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

“I’ll bring you something to drink.”

Kissing her cheek affectionately, she looked at his retreating back. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.She cooled her burning face with the back of her hand.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

In that moment, Margrethe and Ivar, the captain of the Knights Division, came calling to her. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.The two had a significant difference in physique, and it was like seeing a roe deer standing next to a big bear.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

“Knight Palmaril.”

Christa tried to get up and salute as usual, but Ivar stopped her. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.Then he bowed his head.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

“I didn’t come here today as your superior, so I don’t need formalities. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.And most of all, I came here to tell you something.”read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

“You mean to me…?”

It was not an illusion that Ivar’s eyes looked watery for a moment.

Margrethe pokes Ivar in the ribs. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.At the same time, Ivar coughs a few times and reaches out his hand.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

“Thank you very much for protecting Grete.”

He had a stiff voice, but his voice was teary and trembling.

“I just did what I was supposed to do as a knight.”

Christa held his hands tightly together.

“The Emperor was very happy to hear this news. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.You were highly praised for being the first contributor to raising the status of this hunting festival.”read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

“Ah, is that so?”

Then Ragnar came back.

“Captain!”

Ivar tried to salute as Christa tried to do earlier, but this time Ragnar stopped him.

“Well, no more greetings. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.I heard that my fiance saved your wife this time.”read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

Ivar broke out in a cold sweat when he saw Ragnar’s expression.

“Well, that’s the truth! It’s something that should be hang in the sky. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.I hope that I will never forget this grace for the rest of my life and will surely repay it in any form……!”read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

Ivar was a man of the size of a bear. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.Christa laughed at the way he crumpled and blushed.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

“Because Lady Christa is my benefactor.”

Margrethe also smiles at Christa. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.Then Ivar sneaks in a question.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

“By the way, when do you two develop such a relationship…….”

He looked alternately at Christa and Ragnar and rolled his eyes anxiously. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.His boss and his subordinate promised to get married, yet he didn’t know anything about it. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.Either he had no sense or they acted too well.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

“Actually, it’s been quite a while.”

Then Ragnar hugs Christa’s waist. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.For a moment, Christa began to make a lame excuse, too.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

“Yes, that’s right. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.We’ve been seeing each other for a long time.”read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

Then she looked up at Ragnar with a nervous look on her face. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.He gave a sly smile.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

“I didn’t know that.”

Ivar nodded steadily. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.Then Margrethe grabbed his hand.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

“You have a dull spot.”

A friendly atmosphere ensued. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.Somehow Christa was a bit embarrassed. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.Then the atmosphere of the banquet hall changed completely.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

“Your majesty, the noble emperor of the Cassidanian Empire, is here!”

The clamor in the hall stopped with the cry of the servant. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.Pelias I took the podium. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.The emperor had a somewhat exalted face.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

“I heard that there was a knight that showed an impressive performance at this hunting festival.”

For a moment, the public’s eye was drawn to Christa.

“Crista Palmaril, come forward.”

For a moment, Christa could not decide whether to bow or salute in military style.

However, today was not a military banquet, so Christa walked half a step forward, grabbed her dress, and bent her knees. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.As she walked onto the platform, she felt a burdensome gaze.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

Christa climbed onto the podium and knelt before Emperor Pelias I. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.The intensely colored fabric of her dress spreads in the air and creates beautiful ripples.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

“You saved the life of a lady by displaying true chivalry as a lady, and made an achievement that no one has ever achieved with that brave feat. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.Therefore, I will give this sword to praise your greatness.”read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

When Pelias beckoned, the servant brought a sword and bowed before Christa. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.Christa picked up the sword. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.It was a dresser’s rapier decorated with colored jewels.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.read only at salmonlatte . com.

“Endless glory and peace to the new empire Cassidenia. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.One of the prey I hunted will be dedicated to the Emperor.”read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

This was what she discussed with Ragnar earlier. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.She heard gasps, and soon applause broke out here and there.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

“Endless glory to the new empire, Cassidenia!”

“Glory!”

People raised their glasses high and shouted congratulations.

Emperor Pelias turned straight back and left. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.The servant followed in a hurry.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

As Christa turns around, Ragnar congratulates her with a meaningful smile.

“Well done.”

As a result, the royal family officially acknowledged the marriage of Christa Palmaril and Ragnar Argonod. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.Of course, it would not have mattered if the imperial family were pleased with the situation.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

Ragnar did not know how to hide his joy.

“That pot-bellied man had a face that said he was about to die of anger.”

“Did he?”
