Episode 74. Is that person Noah Astrid?
After the wedding, all the nobles left the cathedral. Meanwhile, Noah and Olivia had to take dozens of photos with their relatives, the order of which depended on the line of succession.
“In the past, this was drawn as a picture.”
“That’s right. It was so hard towards the end that I cried.”
Even Usher muttered, as if he was fed up, and Beatrix nodded. Meanwhile, Leonard watched his son and daughter-in-law with a very pleased expression, probably enjoying the news the press secretary was whispering in his ear.
Lucy, who was holding her father's hand, was busy looking at Olivia here and there.
Meanwhile, as Noah moved into the 50th place in the line of succession, he began to secretly postpone greeting Olivia.
He was very confused because the order of children and adults was all mixed up, but when he glanced at Olivia, she immediately pointed out the next order without asking twice.
“Count Pattier.”
At Olivia's whisper, Noah looked straight at Count Pattier and smiled softly.
"Count Pattier. Thank you for coming. Please come this way."
“Your Highness, Your Royal Highness. I sincerely congratulate you on your wedding.”
Because of the gap between the photo and the real thing, Olivia, who was only good at theory, and Noah, who was good at practical skills, greeted each other step by step without making a single mistake regarding the hierarchy.
Because of that, the attendant who was waiting had nothing to do and just stood there blankly.
"Mrs. Lehmann was amazed that she could memorize so many family trees in one go. Indeed, it seems she did."
As the Queen, who was watching the scene, muttered, Usher, who was beside her, whispered.
“Is that why Noah keeps asking the Princess?”
"Noah, that guy's been freaking out about that family tree since he was little. Now he's going to pass it all off to the Princess."
Then, Margot, who was next to him, nodded as if it was obvious.
“That would be easy for the Princess.”
Of course.
The Queen and Usher, who had caught a glimpse of Margot's triumphant expression, looked at Olivia at the same time.
Meanwhile, as the families ranked 65th to 73rd in the pecking order came out and stood around the bride and groom, the photographer flashed his flash.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
How many times did they take pictures like that?
Just when both Noah and Olivia thought they were going blind, the photographer finally put the camera away.
Both of them breathed a sigh of relief at the same time.
At that moment, Mrs. Polsman, the head maid who was standing under the stage, spoke to the two people.
“You two, please come down now.”
“I can’t see anything in front of me.”
Olivia blinked rapidly at Noah's muttering and whispered.
“I can see a little. Catch me.”
“Not to that extent.”
“Then that’s good.”
“You take a good look and come down. I know your height, so how high are your shoes?”
“You might be surprised when you see it.”
"Hold on to the dress, too. If you step on it, you'll fall over. Shouldn't you just lift it and get off? That'd be faster."
“...It’s not that bad, Your Highness.”
Noah said that while waiting patiently for Olivia to come down from the stage.
The gazes of the relatives nearby slowly followed the two people.
“...”
“...”
Even as they remained silent for the sake of appearances, their eyes widened. But someone, unable to bear it any longer, muttered involuntarily.
“..Is that person Noah Astrid right now?”
“That’s right.”
“Was he always that kind of person?”
Although it was a statement that required a rethinking of the definition of 'affection,' all the relatives who heard it nodded in agreement.
If it was Usher Astrid, they don't know, but 'that' Noah Astrid is having a conversation that's like a pun?
Then, a small whisper was heard from somewhere.
“Prince Noah fell in love. Why else would His Majesty approve?”
At that time, Noah and Olivia were walking out of the chapel for the city parade. The couple stood shoulder to shoulder as they crossed the empty chapel. Transparent sunlight poured down on their heads.
The old lady, who had been staring blankly at the sight, opened her mouth.
"Don't speak carelessly about Prince Noah, since you don't even know him. Don't even dare mention that his wife is a commoner. Look at her! How beautiful she is! She's very pleasing to the eye."
At the words of the eldest member of the royal family, the Grand Lady, everyone kept their mouths shut and took a step back.
The lady laughed heartily and waved her fan gently.
Is it because youth is like spring? How can she be so pretty?
Noah thought.
By the end of this cigar parade, both he and Olivia will be blind and deaf.
The reporters lined up in a row, snapping pictures like crazy, and the cheers that pierced both eardrums showed no sign of stopping.
Olivia and Noah were touring downtown Herrington, seated side by side in a magnificent open carriage drawn by six white horses.
Olivia, sitting on the left, looked to the left, and Noah, sitting on the right, looked to the right and greeted the cheering crowd.
Parents carrying their children on their shoulders or holding their hands, young people with their elderly parents, and couples standing affectionately together.
Olivia cautiously waved back at those who were waving eagerly at her. Meanwhile, King Leonard's words kept coming to mind.
“Get recognition not from those above these stairs, but from the people of Herod who cheer you on from below these stairs.”
“Can you do it, Olivia?”
Olivia caught her breath and braced herself. The corset constricting her chest and abdomen made her suffocate, and a cold sweat began to form, but she straightened her back and focused on greeting everyone.
As time passed, more and more people started calling out for Olivia.
“Your Highness, the Princess!!!!!!”
The sound was so loud that Noah was startled and turned his head.
Even if you boil firewood and eat it, it would not be easy to make such a sound.
“Please take a look here too!!”
Now, even the people who had been on Noah's side were calling out to Olivia.
The story of the first female college student to become the Princess, which stirred up all of Herod's kingdom, was fascinating enough to capture people's hearts.
Moreover, since the Princess was beautiful, there were far more people who wanted to see Olivia than Noah.
As evidence, the reporters who were standing on Noah's side quietly moved to Olivia's left and took pictures of her.
When Olivia raised her hand and waved, some of them even shouted at her.
“Gyaaaaaaaah!! Your Highness, the Princess!!!!”
The public was enthusiastic about the new Princess.
Yeah, this wasn't love; it was infatuation.
Noah looked around with a dumbfounded look at the reaction that was greater than he had expected, and then turned his gaze to Olivia, who was sitting next to him.
The blaring camera lights illuminated her slender neck beyond the veil. Behind her, a crowd of people and their enthusiastic cheers formed a backdrop.
As the cheers grew louder, his eyes gradually became more and more sullen.
“Here too, here too!! Look here too, Your Highness the Princess!!!!”
Olivia turned her head at the sound of a voice shouting from her right, and cheers erupted as if they had been waiting for it.
Olivia turned her head, sweat beading on her forehead, and her already pale face turned even whiter, appearing as if she had turned pale.
Her smile seemed forced, and the hand she waved seemed thin and weak, like a dry branch.
Noah knew how difficult it was to endure the tidal wave of public enthusiasm. That's why, in his eyes, Olivia seemed to be simply holding on.
“OLIVIA!!!!!!”
The whole capital was filled with waves in her name.
She could become his wife because the King wanted this.
Olivia Liberty, with no family, no wealth, and no social standing, was able to become Noah Astrid's wife for only one reason: the public's outpouring of admiration and attention.
However, this will be until today.
The story of the abolition of the Polian monarchy had long since been buried, and their marriage today would cause Herod some noise for some time.
That's enough.
At this point, Olivia had paid the price of marriage.
Noah's vision was once again darkened by the sudden flash of light. He unconsciously waved his hand, seemingly to no one, and thought.
That today would be the first and last time he would expose Olivia to the public like prey.
And himself too.
Now, all that remains for Noah Astrid is to obtain the peace he was promised.
After the wedding, all the nobles left the cathedral. Meanwhile, Noah and Olivia had to take dozens of photos with their relatives, the order of which depended on the line of succession.
