Chapter 137: The Ceremony Begins


Fortunately, John seemed to know that Lorne didn't like each other and didn't tell the news before the meal.

Otherwise, when Lorne thought of that angelic, sarcastic woman, it would be as if she had eaten hundreds of flies, so disgusting that she was full of everything.

It is estimated that Rory should be holding Celine's aggrieved nose and tears at the moment.

Lorne is mainly concerned about Athena's schedule.

Being in the same city, he didn't want to suddenly meet Athena while walking.

It's not because he's afraid of the other person, but okay, Lorne has to admit that he can't fight that stinky bitch.

But this is only temporary.

As the old saying goes, if you want to destroy it, you must first expand it.

Let Athena be proud for a while first, and when he has the ability in the future, he will definitely get back his dignity from that woman bit by bit.

"John, do you know what the eldest daughter of the Stuart family is doing here?

Or does her family have any friends in the north?"

Lorne wanted to find out Athena's movements and avoid running into her, but unfortunately John's answer was not satisfactory to him.

"The Stuart family has nothing to do with the North.

Athena Stuart went to the North to inspect the church here as a member of the Holy Light Religion.

I heard that she might also lead the knights of the Holy Light Religion to join the grassland border.

The Legion fights with us against the orcs.

With such an important identity, even the Grand Duke cannot ignore her.

During this time, except for some public occasions, she should stay in the cathedral. " Lorne has never been interested in facilities such as churches.

He believes in himself and is not very interested in gods.

Meat Ball also told him that the so-called gods are just powerful creatures.

Therefore, he and Athena should not meet during normal times.

But this is not necessarily the case in public occasions.

Tomorrow's ceremony can definitely be regarded as a grand event in Tallinn City.

No matter what identity Athena uses, she can receive an invitation from the Grand Duke of the North.

The person you least want to see appears on the most important occasion.

What could be more painful than this in the world?

Praying that Athena was a pious and secular ascetic, Lorne hoped that the woman would refuse the invitation of the Grand Duke of the North.

But as he was cramming, no matter which god he prayed to, he could not get an answer.

On the contrary, Athena, who was protected by the Mother of Light, had smooth sailing wherever she went.

The prisoner presentation ceremony was held as scheduled, but Lorne, who was neatly dressed, looked sad.

Because last night, Arthur came and told him something.

"Lorne, I just got news from the person in charge of tomorrow's ceremony.

Did you know that the woman who has a grudge against you was actually invited by the Grand Duke of the North to become the person in charge of the sacrifice at the ceremony?"

After one night, Lorne I still remember Arthur's exaggerated tone and his gloating expression, "When the time comes, she will definitely stand beside the Grand Duke of the North.

I think you may be in trouble."

It was because of Arthur's words that Lorne stayed alone in the empty room for another night.

So much so that today, dressed in military uniform, he looked as dull-eyed as Walter.

As a rule, commanders who return from victory usually wear full armor.

Of course, Lorne couldn't make an exception and put on the old armor with the family crest that Fast carried.

After not sleeping well all night, he was swaying on the horse, thanks to Fast's strong physique.

If it were Lorn's body on earth, let alone riding a horse, he wouldn't be able to walk even a few steps if he put on armor weighing dozens of kilograms.

On the other hand, Doug and Arthur, both guys have decorative armor for participating in ceremonies.

Not only is it lightweight but it's also very beautiful.

If it weren't for the need to mark the coat of arms on the armor, Lorne wouldn't be embarrassed by wearing such an antique set.

But rules are rules, a different world where family is above all else.

Emphasize your last name at all times, especially on important occasions.

Failure to wear the associated coat of arms will be considered as a deserter who does not know honor or gratitude.

After experiencing both physical and mental torture, Lorne and the others led the team into Tallinn City through the main entrance.

All the civilians who were watching stood on both sides of the road in an orderly manner under the maintenance of Tallinn City soldiers.

They were only allowed to move forward slowly on the empty street.

There were no flowers or applause as expected, Lorne could see it in the eyes of those civilians.

They didn't think this battle involving thousands of people was anything special.

In fact, if it hadn't been for a long time without a big battle, Lorne and others wouldn't have had the chance to get the current honor.

Arthur and Doug were also not too excited.

For them, the most important part of this ceremony was the personal award from the Grand Duke of the North.

What happens to civilians has nothing to do with them.

Several people were eager to complete this section of the road, and the entire team was driven by the three to speed up.

The formal ceremony location was actually in Habsburg.

A lot of time was wasted, and Lorne, who was extremely heavy even with his body and armor, even had to stop midway and change to a strong war horse.

Finally, within the scheduled time, their team arrived in front of the Habsburg Gate.

The magnificent castle seems to have been slightly decorated because of this ceremony.

It has many more decorations than when Lorne came the previous two times.

The most eye-catching thing was of course the large group of colorful nobles gathered at the door.

Everyone came in costumes, the men showed their heroic qualities, and the women did not look like women.

This group of well-maintained nobles can be said to be extremely outstanding in terms of appearance.

And judging from the relaxed looks on their faces, they must have been standing outside just after receiving the news.

Comparing it with himself again, Lorne suddenly felt that he looked very ridiculous when he was as tired as a dog while riding a horse.

What happened next was just like what had been previewed at Arthur's house, kneeling on one knee in front of the Grand Duke of the North.

Listening to the useless speech, Lorne didn't pay attention to the Archduke at all.

Because right in front of him, the woman standing with the Grand Duke of the North on behalf of the church made him have to be extremely vigilant.

Although the woman's Zhuang Zhu expression seemed to be very serious, the glance she glanced at Lorne, intentionally or unintentionally, could always make his heart tremble.

On such a solemn occasion, if Athena suddenly attacks, even if Lorne catches it, it will leave a bad impression on others.

People who break rules will not be liked anywhere.

During this period of time, Lorne has tried his best to correct his identity as an illegitimate son in other people's minds.

But if Athena exposes his discord with the church, it will inevitably leave others with the feeling that he does not fit in with others.

Lorne, who is not yet independent, needs to cooperate with other nobles.

The thought of being ostracized makes him shudder
