Chapter 56: The Concept of Marriage!

Carrying the unconscious Iria, I return to Guildmaster Gilmas's room.

"Iria, what happened?"

Shikibu rushes over in a panic.

"Well, I fainted from being too happy."

"Huh?"

Shikibu looks puzzled, but Iria wakes up.

"Iria, are you okay?"

"Huh, huh?"

Looking around, blushing,

"It's nothing. I apologize for causing concern."

She bows her head.

"So, what's the cause?"

"Tell us quickly, Laura!"

"I'll recreate it here and now. Shiro!"

In response to the call, Shiro appears from an empty space.

Laura's measuring device is also sounding an alarm.

"Takuto, who's this girl?"

"The one I introduced yesterday, Shiro."

"Huh, Shiro?"

"A Shiro in human form."

"...I see."

Perhaps giving up, Shikibu stops pressing further.

Probably, Shikibu seems more interested in Murasaki, who is stretching his nose beside Shiro, than in Shiro.

...I get it, because he's a guy, but if this continues, Murasaki might die!

"I see, it's teleportation magic. A 'Unique Skill' that only a few people in the world can use. It's no wonder the measuring device reacted."

It seems he's adjusting the measuring device by touching it.

"Alright, now the alarm won't sound."

They can adjust it so the alarm won't activate if they recognize this magic waveform as non-harmful.

Later, Laura talks with Shikibu in the inner room.

Shiro talks with Iria, but her nervousness is palpable even to me.

I decide to move to the testing ground and talk to Murasaki.

Actually, it's 'healing' the spot that was attacked by Shikibu in secret...

"Maybe we should inform the guild members about this at noon today."

"Is that so?"

A marriage announcement!

"Are you not going to have a wedding ceremony?"

"What's a wedding ceremony?"

"Huh?"

It seems there's no wedding ceremony in this Exis world.

There's no need to submit documents to an official place, and it seems the couple simply makes a contract between themselves.

It's customary to inform close friends and associates after the contract is made.

It might sound strange coming from someone who's never been married, but I think it's better to have everyone's blessings and start a new life.

I've heard that weddings are a place where women shine and it's a once-in-a-lifetime event.

Though these two have just met, or rather, I should say they've been nothing but a bother, I want to do something for them.

...Wait a minute, if there's no wedding ceremony, why don't I create one?

And if I mention Elinu's name with a divine vow, it's killing two birds with one stone!

"Murasaki, when do adventurers gather the most at the guild?"

"In five days, there's a regular meeting in the guild. Most of the adventurers in this city will probably attend!"

...Five days, huh, not much time.

Moreover, I can't rally the adventurers on my own.

First, I should ask Iria.

And while Tohgril would be a suitable candidate, they hate me...

"I'll plan to attend the regular meeting too!"

"Is that so? Thanks!"
