Chapter 102: The King's Promise

  On June 6, 1080, the major cities and towns of Brian, as well as nobles above the rank of earl, all received invitations personally prepared by Seron. Today, most of the top nobles in Brian gathered in the capital of the Kingdom of Brian.

  A grand ceremony, held once in decades, with enormous investment, to celebrate the handover of the old and new kingdom. People on the street are dressed up and bustling about, shouting and calling out to each other, while various fireworks light up the sky above the palace.

  The entire palace of Breyan was in a state of extreme busyness, the Knights of the Guardian under Seron's command, the top combat organization "Crazy Thunder", collectively set out. Today is the day when Breyan gets new blood, today as the protagonist, Seron will be crowned and officially become His Majesty the King of the Kingdom of Breyan.

  Similarly, Sei Yu will be granted the title of Duke today and become the youngest Duke in the history of the Kingdom of Blythe. As if he were not the person concerned, he strolled around the palace, because Sei Yu's life had been a bit "threatened" recently. As the newcomer to the Krewud Dukedom, Vivis seemed to be playing a joke on heaven, and Sei Yu met her under various "unfortunate" encounters, no matter how much he tried to avoid her.

  Vivian lived in the Duke of Criwood's mansion and seemed to have gotten used to hitting Starry, getting more and more handy at it, without even apologizing sincerely.

  Although there are some estrangements between the Kingdom of Blythe and Mikaeru Academy, the sacred land of Mikaeru will still maintain basic courtesy. As the "Tian Shuo Designated" Kari Lampachi, who is the chief of Mikaeru, will represent Mikaeru to congratulate Seron on his coronation, the change of dynasty in Blythe.

  Icaros, Jian Shan Huang Quan and Xing Cui, for the sake of Xing You this carefree person, prepared to confer a title on him with elaborate rituals and preparations. In order to avoid unnecessary bloodshed. Xing You as "bodyguard", together with Vivian, grasped a wooden stick over one meter long, ignoring the strange glances from others in the palace, took Vivian to the square where the inheritance ceremony was held.

  Why did Xingyou and Vivian hold onto a wooden stick over one meter long, after going through many painful memories. Xingyou finally figured out that the distance at which Vivian's androphobia would erupt was one meter, as long as they didn't enter this dangerous range, Vivian wouldn't erupt.

  As "Baoquan Designated" Vivian, grasping this ordinary, unremarkable wooden stick, she gazed at Xingyou's back as he paved the way for her. Although there were many men beside her, why did following this man make her feel more at ease?

  Vivian couldn't understand at all. Was it because no matter how she beat this man, he would endure it without getting angry and quietly care for her?

  Vivian's face turned a little red as she called out in a cute voice: "Xing You gege!"

  "What's wrong?"

  "Today we're attending the dubbing ceremony, are we going to depart for Mikaru Academy afterwards?"

  Xing You didn't know why normally shy Vivian would ask this, but still subconsciously replied.

  "Hmm. Because if we don't set off in advance, perhaps we won't make it to the Continental College Exchange Match!"

  Vivis suddenly fell silent, while the other Vivis rather enjoyed her current life. Kanshuku treated her like a sister and took care of her, Ikaros helped her overcome her androphobia despite being dissatisfied with Vivis's inability to control herself and hitting Hoshiyomi, the lord of the dukedom. Hoshizora always took Vivis out to play and was one of the few friends Vivis had.

  And even if she accidentally ran into the only male, Hoshi Yū, and couldn't suppress her urge to attack, Hoshi Yū wouldn't blame herself. Nor was it like at home where family members would pressure her to overcome her androphobia by finding a man, not knowing that this would only exacerbate her androphobia.

  Crewwood Manor is much better than Migaro, where Vivian was known as "the unthinkable existence" at the academy. Whether it's teachers or students, all men kept their distance from her and cursed her behind her back.

  Due to her introverted personality, status and strength, it is extremely difficult for Vivis to find friends and companions. In Miharu, Vivis' only friend is Kari, who was assigned by Tenshoku. The only male who doesn't fear her is the teacher who can withstand her attacks, "Ice Cutter Wind Flower" Kiryuu.

  Xing You finally brought Vivian to the square of the inheritance ceremony, looking at the countless people who were waiting for that moment, the entire Kingdom of Brion's old and new alternation.

  Vivian glanced around at the dense crowd, a thread of unease appearing in her heart, and unconsciously took a step forward, drawing closer to the familiar man in front of her, entering the range of his explosive mysophobia.

  However, neither of them noticed that Vivian, who had clearly entered the range of male phobia explosion, did not explode.

  Xing You knew that Vivian was afraid of crowded places, so she pulled on a small wooden stick: "Let's go, I'm one of the main characters today anyway. Seron has helped me prepare a special rest area, where there are only people you're familiar with, like Ikaros and Kanzaki Hikari, so don't worry."

  Vivian nodded obediently, finding it easier to just follow behind the man.

  Arriving at the exclusive rest area for Xingyou and others, Xingyou looked at the crowd with very few people dressed up, each one was so pleasing to the eye.

  Looking at the familiar crowd, Vivian completely relaxed and sat down beside Carly, who had never left her side since the Festival of Heaven's Bow.

  "How much longer until the coronation and dubbing ceremony today?"

  Icarus rummaged through the data in his mind: "The seven major procedures, including the opening speech, oath and summary, will take half a day for the entire ceremony."

  Just as Vivian and others started chatting, a thunderous cheer suddenly erupted from the entire audience!

  Xing You looked at Selon who had finally appeared and knew that the ceremony was about to officially begin, their identities would change dramatically from this moment on!

  Icaros came to Xingyou's side, just like a standard wife, and helped Xingyou tidy up her clothes.

  "All preparations have been made, all that's left is for you, Master, to follow the procedure of conferring a title."

  Jian Shan Huang Quan rarely took the initiative to offer help with his master's busy schedule: "The ceremony is definitely going to be boring, heavy and lengthy, let's just wait patiently."

  "Go on, Duke Criwood!" Little sister's face turned bright red with excitement.

  Xing You walked slowly onto the stage under the gaze of everyone's unreal feeling, he had never thought that one day he would really be enfeoffed.

  Among the salutes and applause of the crowd, with a steady pace, he walked to Seron's side. The identities between them changed completely from today on. One was His Majesty the King of the Kingdom of Blain, and the other was Duke Criwood of the Kingdom of Blain.

  Just like forever letting people see through, except when dealing with the devil summoner, Seron revealed a corner of the iceberg, he always had reservations.

  Although they were partners who could entrust their lives to each other, at this moment when all eyes were on them, on the stage of crowning, Xing You didn't know what to say because of the identities of the two people, an invisible gap appeared between them.

  Xingyou discovered that Cailon was smiling, and in front of the top noble families of the future, including Brian, he said something that Xingyou couldn't believe.

  "I will never treat you as my pawn or subordinate, no matter how our positions may change, you are my partner! This is the promise I, Seron Charles Relie, make to you, Hoshi Yū Kiriwudu, at this moment when I am about to be crowned!"
