For Louise, she was in a daze for the rest of the time.

She was woken up by Varudo early in the morning, then taken to the church, put on the clothes prepared by Albion for the bride, and also put on the bride's flower crown. Logically speaking, this scene is where Louise has been

She was eager, but she didn't know why, she wasn't happy at all, and even a little scared.

"What should I do, saber?"

"You need to make your own choice."

Faced with Louise's uneasy inquiry, the red ponytail smiled and patted her shoulder.

"You have made a choice and you have to face the consequences, but no matter which one, I will be by your side."

"……………Um."

After hearing this, Louise seemed to finally feel relieved. She smiled at the red ponytail, and at this moment, the wedding was about to begin.

In other words, it has already begun.

The whole wedding was very simple. After all, this was the final showdown. Except for the Crown Prince of Wales, no one else was present. There were no guests or guards. It didn't look romantic. However, no one present seemed to care much.

This bit.

"Then, the ceremony begins."

Looking at the two people in front of him, the Crown Prince of Wales nodded, and then began to read the edict of the ceremony.

"Groom, Viscount Varudo, are you willing to swear in the name of your ancestor that you will respect her, love her, and marry her?"

"I swear."

Faced with the question from the Crown Prince of Wales, Viscount Varudo answered, and then the Crown Prince looked at Louise.

"Bride, Louise Frances Lou Brown Du La Vallière, are you willing to swear in the name of your ancestor..."

"………………"

Standing quietly next to Viscount Varudo, Louise did not feel any happiness or joy in her heart at the moment. On the contrary, she felt as if she was a sacrifice to a monster and was about to be swallowed up by the monster. And even more so.

What makes Louise uneasy is that this feeling comes not from somewhere else, but from Varudo next to her!

Help me! Someone save me!

"So, bride, are you willing?"

"I……………"

Hearing the Crown Prince's question, Louise was silent for a moment. As long as she nodded and answered "I do", the ceremony would be over. But...

"I……………"

However, just when Louise was about to refuse, she suddenly felt her body sinking suddenly.

Then her whole body seemed to be controlled by something, and she was completely unable to move.

I can't speak, I can't open my mouth!

Is this... magic? Someone is using magic to control me?

"I………"

I do not want to!

"snort."

However, just when Louise slowly opened her mouth to speak, she suddenly heard a cold snort coming from her ears. The next moment, the magic that originally bound Louise was suddenly released. At the same time, she saw

A low scream was heard outside the church.

"I do not want to!"

Taking advantage of the moment when the magic restraint was released, Louise shouted loudly. Faced with this sudden development, the crown prince and Varudo were both stunned.

"Bride, you don't want to, don't you?"

"Yes!"

As she spoke, Louise took two steps back and distanced herself from Viscount Varudo.

"Viscount Varudo, what do you want to do? You actually use magic to control me!"

"What? Did you do such a thing?"

Hearing what Louise said, the crown prince was also shocked and looked at Varudo dissatisfied. A trace of panic appeared on Varudo's face, and then he looked at Louise with a smile again.

"Sorry, my lovely Louise, I was just too anxious, because you see, aren't you very nervous? I was afraid that you would not be able to complete the ceremony by then, so I wanted to do this..."

"No, I don't want to hear it, I don't want to marry you!"

Upon hearing Louise's clear rejection, Varudo's expression suddenly changed. He reached out and grabbed Louise.

"Louise, I will get the whole world, and for this you are necessary! Your ability! Your power!"

"Me, my power?"

Louise looked at Varudo blankly, not knowing what to say for a moment, and Varudo shouted as if he was possessed.

"Louise, have you forgotten what I said before? You will grow into an outstanding magician that is not inferior to your ancestor! It's just that you didn't notice this talent yourself, and you summoned the legendary familiar.'

Gundalu', this is the best evidence! A giant metal dragon that can soar in the sky, if we can get that, the whole world will bow at our feet!"

"You, what on earth are you talking about..."

Louise was completely frightened at this moment. In her memory, Varudo always faced her with a gentle smile, but now this man had a distorted expression and looked like he was about to attack her.

Like a robber.

"Hey, Viscount, since you've been dumped, you need to be happy..."

At this moment, the crown prince also came over and grabbed Varudo's hand, but was pushed away by him.

"Get out of my way!"

Varudo pushed the crown prince away, and the crown prince couldn't help being stunned.

"you……………!"

"Louise, don't you understand? Your talent is necessary for me."

"you you……………"

At this moment, Louise was also trembling with anger.

"I understand. It turns out that you don't love me at all. You just love my non-existent ability. You want to marry me for this reason. It is simply an insult to me. You...you

……………”

Louise opened her mouth to say something, but in the end she just stamped her foot angrily.

"You are just greedy for my body, you are despicable!!"

"puff!!"

Hearing this, Red Ponytail, who was watching the show next to him, almost spat out a mouthful of water. But at this moment, Varudo showed his gentle expression again.

"Isn't it okay even if I say this? My lovely Louise!"

"No, who will marry you?"

"Yeah………"

Hearing this, Varudo let out a long sigh, and then lowered his head.

"I originally hoped to capture your heart this time. I thought you were very innocent and could get it very easily. I didn't expect it to turn out like this. Forget it, in that case, let's achieve another goal first."

"Purpose?"

"That's right."

Speaking of this, Varudo raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a sneer.

"I have three purposes for this trip, and marrying you is only one of them. Since it cannot be achieved, it is okay to achieve the other two first."

"The other two..."

"The first one was you, Louise, but unfortunately it failed. The second purpose is the letter from Henrietta that you have in your pocket, Louise."

"What?"

Hearing this, Louise was stunned.

"As for the third purpose..."

It was too late, then it was too late. At this moment, Varudo suddenly picked up the wand and chanted a mantra to the crown prince. With a speed that seemed to flash, the wand whizzed and stabbed into the chest of the crown prince.

However, at this moment, a red light flashed.

"clang!!"

The wand in Varudo's hand was cut into two pieces, and the next moment, the bright red sword burning with flames was pressed against his neck.

"Hey, have you forgotten that I exist?"

The red ponytail yawned and looked at Varudo with narrowed eyes. There is nothing to be afraid of as a clown, but it would be too disrespectful for you to run wild in front of me.
