Chapter 749 Oaths and Tokens

What a strange race.

Although I was flattered by this result, I can only give this conclusion in the end. If it is because of the sufficient strength shown in the battle with Artoria that the attitude of these elves has changed so much, then

It makes sense.

But when Artoria and I appeared, they didn't know the outcome of the battle at all. No, in fact, no one made a final conclusion about the outcome of the battle between Artoria and me, just like Kane and

Lyman and the others deliberately ignored the general.

Anyway, this is a good thing.

I couldn't understand it even after thinking about it. The otaku mentality immediately took over and made me give up this unnecessary speculation.

The last short distance to the Crystal Tree Square, amidst countless cheers, Arturia and I finally completed the walk hand in hand.

What appeared in front of us was the huge crystal tree that was very close at hand, filling the entire eye socket, and at the foot of the crystal tree, the aging Great Elder Yalandlan was sitting on a chair.

"Congratulations, my child."

Quietly looking at Artoria in a white wedding dress. Even though she has lived for a thousand years and experienced countless joys and sorrows, Arlandan's eyes can't help but become slightly moist, showing the complicated look of a mother looking at her married daughter, and she gently walks away.

She came forward and hugged Arturia, who was half-kneeling next to her.

"Grandma Yalandlan, Artoria is where she is today because of your teachings."

Arturia's meticulous attitude could not conceal her inner feelings at this moment.

"Okay, kid, welcome your own happiness and the future happiness of the mainland."

After wiping her eyes, she gently lifted Artoria up, holding her hand with one hand, and stretched out her other hand towards me who had been standing by and watching.

"Follow your orders, Great Elder Yalandan."

I stepped forward, took Yalanlan's extended hand, and said respectfully.

"Don't call me Great Elder. Like Artoria, can you call me grandma?"

Yalandlan looked over with eyes that seemed to be able to see through the soul, showing a kind smile.

"Well, Grandma Yalandlan."

Feeling the hand tightening, I nodded heavily.

"Okay, very good. I didn't expect that my old bones could still wait until today. God has been so kind to me."

With a sigh of relief, Yalandlan turned his gaze to me again.

"Wu, can I call you that?"

"It's my pleasure, Grandma Yalandlan."

"Okay, Wu, I'm asking you now, can you treat Artoria well, not from the standpoint of the alliance, not from the standpoint of the elf prince, but as a husband."

"Perhaps, in the future, I won't have much time to spend with Artoria."

After glancing at Arturia who was smiling calmly, I turned around and looked directly at Arlandran's sharp and vicissitudes of eyes.

"However, at least when I am with her, I will try my best to make her happy."

"Okay, with your words, I feel relieved."

Arlandran seemed very satisfied, smiled, kindly stroked the golden hair of Artoria's shawl, and said softly.

"Wu, maybe this child seems to be too strict with others and himself. He always has a straight face, doesn't like to laugh, and doesn't know how to adapt..."

Having said this, Arlandran glanced at Artoria who had a confused look on her face. Her originally smiling expression suddenly became sincere and serious, and she continued to speak to me.

"But, please believe me, in addition to being an excellent king, Artoria is also a good girl. She is just too simple, upright, and strict, and seems clumsy. When she was a child, she began to bear the burden silently.

She has met the hopes of countless elves and experienced overly harsh studies. Although this kind of life has made her extremely outstanding, she has also missed some basic things."

Sighing, Yalandan raised his head and looked at both of us with kind eyes.

"So, this child often gets a little confused. I hope that as my husband, you can understand and be tolerant."

After Arlandran finished speaking, Arturia immediately lowered her head and began to think, and then said to herself.

"A little confused? Although I always thought that I didn't do enough to be called an excellent king, but I didn't expect that I would be a little confused. I was really too careless."

As she murmured like this, Artoria showed a solemn expression, and her conspicuous golden hair was not known to be affected by the strength of Arlandran's hand on her head, or by the high-speed thinking of her brain.

The influence, in short, started to change naturally.

"..."

Although it is also a little confused, I can be sure that what Arlandlan said about being a little confused and what Artoria said about being a little confused are two completely different concepts. They are completely different from each other.

So... Artoria, do you know that if you are thinking about the act of being a little confused as Arlandran said, you are already being a little confused.

Looking at Arturia who was deep in thought, Arlandan and I looked at each other and saw helplessness in each other's eyes.

"Don't worry, Grandma Arlandan, isn't this just right? For me, Artoria who gets a little confused from time to time is much cuter than Artoria who doesn't get confused."

"Haha, I wish you could think so."

Arlandan laughed heartily, and Artoria on the side reacted and looked at me with slightly dissatisfied eyes.

"Fan, it's so rude of you to say that, and as a king who leads countless tribesmen, how can you allow a little confusion?"

"No, no, no, Artoria, you misunderstood me. The confusion we are referring to is not the part of you as a king. Let's put it this way. Just because you are so good as a king,

That’s why I got a little confused in other places.”

"I can't understand, Fan, what you and Grandma Yalandlan said is very profound."

Regarding my tongue-twisting answer, Artoria continued to look confused, lowered her head and began to think, and the speed of the golden hair sped up about one and a half times.

"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter. That's what the so-called authorities are obsessed with. Anyway, even if you don't understand this kind of thing, it won't affect your part as the king."

Seeing that Artoria's head was about to be overloaded, I said quickly.

"Indeed, now is not the time to consider it."

I suddenly woke up, and my hair immediately stopped turning. Arturia nodded solemnly towards me, but judging from her appearance, it seemed that she did not intend to give up thinking about this issue, but just postponed it for a moment.

That’s all.

"Well, that's good. Artoria, you can't forget that from now on, in addition to being the queen of elves, you are also Wu's wife, and you should fulfill your duties as a wife."

"Yes, Grandma Yalandlan, Fan has the potential to become an excellent king. I will assist him well and work together to repel the forces of hell."

Looking at Artoria who made a sonorous and powerful declaration, Arlandran was stunned for a moment, and then his eyes moved to me.

"It seems that you will have a lot of hard work in the future." She said with a pun.

"I have already made this awareness long ago."

I can only smile bitterly at Artoria's attempt to forcefully transfer me from the acg otaku profession to the king of clans profession.

"As I just said, couples should be more tolerant."

"Please don't worry, Grandma Yalandlan."

"If possible, it would be better if you can gradually be influenced by Artoria." Arlandran smiled.

"Well..."

Sweat broke out on my forehead.

"Okay, okay, let everything take its course. I believe that as long as you two are here in the Dark Continent, there will be no problem."

Yalanlan is indeed a wise man who has lived for thousands of years. He has long seen my ambition as big as a grain of rice and did not force me too much.

"The people below probably can't wait any longer. Go quickly, children, and complete your vows under the witness of the Crystal Tree."

At Yalandan's urging, we arrived at the high platform of the Crystal Tree, and the hundreds of thousands of onlookers below suddenly burst into loud cheers.

After a closer look, it was Lyman and Kane who were presiding over this ceremony. They were really two busy people.

In accordance with the principle of simplicity, this ceremony is very important and the simplest one. It is divided into two steps. The first step is the oath, and the second step is the exchange of tokens.

Under the auspices of Lyman and Kane, the hundreds of thousands of spectators in the audience gradually became quiet. Finally, the entire crowded square was silent, with only the crisp leaves of the Crystal Tree rustling from time to time, adding an extra dimension to the ceremony.

The mood.

"I, Artoria, hereby swear..."

Under the gaze of hundreds of thousands of pairs of eyes, Artoria's solemn and clear sound echoed over the entire square.

"From now on, the man in front of me, Druid Wu Fan, and I will become husband and wife. I will fulfill my duties as a wife, respect and love each other with him, and share weal and woe. Moreover, we will work together to lead the two races.

The warriors work together to repel the Dark Continent and fight to the death."

Finally, Artoria's clear and loud voice slowly dissipated around the square, and after a while, a wave of applause sounded.

Well, this kind of oath is a bit too formulaic. If you say it's like Artoria's style, then it's similar. If you say it's not like it, then it's a bit unlike it, huh.

Although I know that on such occasions, I must try my best to be perfect and not do whatever I want and make the history books a laughing stock, but if it is too monotonous and boring, wouldn't it be equally boring?

Thinking this in his mind, he suddenly felt a flood of eyes focused on him, which was the eyes of hundreds of thousands of people. He coughed slightly in a panic to calm down his mood. Like Arturia, a loud voice resounded throughout the whole place.

square.
