An invitation to a wedding . We were grateful for the invitation .
I am curious how does the marriage in this world works .
A copy paste of different ways at home ? . The which and religion will it be like . Hindu , Buddhist, Christian, Islam . Maybe something like a court marriage .
We reached at the venue it was in a farmhouse like setting . With decorations and such .
And another crystal orb in the middle . Wait a minute , don't tell me the couple will keep their hand in the ball and boom you're married .
There was no one priest except there was a guildmaster. And multiple priest with their own seperate dresscode .
Indicating different groups .
One was from the round table the bishop . Another was a monk from the warrior tribe . Third was a proxy of the judge who worked in the government .
And a lady with really salacious clothing choices .
Am I missing something here ? . Something even I don't know .
Livia and Lilia were with the bride as she took worked in the guild . Yes the receptionist.
She is a decent lady . So I would give props for that .
While the guildmaster's son we'll leave it to your own imagination. But when I look at him I feel a slight bit jealous .
Jay :
Explain the marriage process of this world to me .
McElroy:
Uhh get ready here it goes .
Marriage is a bond between ------
Jay :
I know what is marriage but how does this one take place .
McElroy:
Simple . Atleast 4 proxies of different gods are required. Any three of the lower gods and
1 proxy of godess of love .
That one lady who is being stared by every man here . (points towards her )
Jay :
But why four proxies . Why just you can do with one .
? :
Let me tell this story to you .
Suddenly the woman appeared behind us even though we were just looking at her .
Liebe :
Ahh so you want to know how marriage works let me enlighten you as a proxy of godess of love .
A long long time ago . There was a time when the godess of love used to validate marriages . It was her duty .
She guided the path of love to everyone.
She eventually guided a beautiful couple to their marriage . And years later they had a beautiful child .
But some of the gods were not happy with their union so they tried to break their marriage.
But the goddess stopped them in their tracks . And they were forced to step back .
From then onwards of the 12 gods you have to get atleast proxies of 4 gods to approve the union .
I serve the benevolent godess of love .
Hesia .
While the other three serve other gods .
That bishop serves the God of light
Luminos
The monk serves the guardian of existence who serves as a bridge between the ones alive and the weathered .
And the one there is a proxy of the Judge .
Jay :
I appreciate you explaining me this but don't you think you're getting all over me .
Lebe :
Ahh but I don't think so . It been a long time since I found somone as you .
Jay :
Stop teasing me please . And countinue .
Lebe :
Of course dear .
Oh look the bride is finally ready just see the ceremony for yourself.
I must ready myself as well .
The receptionist was the bride who looked beautiful in colourful clothing .
Which made her shine out even more .
While the groom was in a similar colour contrast to her .
And the guildmaster was standing with us . In tears as he watched his son get married .
They stood before lebe . So this is a Christian style wedding .
Lebe :
I am lebe a follower of the benevolent godess of love. I am here as a proxy and as a witness to their love .
She removed her staff . And raised it to the sky .
" I ask the godess Hesia to approve their marriage. " The mystical staff started glowing
" Godess Hesia has approved of the union "
The crowd started going wild . And started cheering for those two . While the monk stood on the stage .
He removed his talwar and said in a loud voice .
" The guardian of existence who maintains balance between life and death , Do you accept their marriage "
The sword started burning furiously .
" The guardian has approved of the marriage"
The crowd started cheering more furiously .
Next the judge stood in the stage .
" I ask the Judge who is righteous and
maintains the law and order . Will you approve the contract of marriage "
The symbol of the judge was the scales . The scales started tilting furious as he was being judged within the eyes of the God and it tipped opposite to the weights .
" The Judge has approved of the contract which will be followed till their death "
Now one more permission was needed . Everyone's heart started pumping very fast as the bishop from the knight order stood on the stage .
He had a staff which was a cross made of pure gold . And he held the lower half of the cross with one hand and his other hand he pulled the top of the cross and a double edged sword
poped out . He held the sword above. his head .
" Lumios the God of light . I beg you to approve the marriage of this wonderful and lovely pair "
The bishop was looking confused as there was no response. The crowd started chattering within themselves. The guildmasters heart turned pale .
The bishop repeated his chanting . Again and again . It was of no use .
The bishop stepped down and started talking with the other proxies .
Jay decided to closely listen . The bride couldn't take the stress as she fainted . And the groom held the bride in his hands and seated her on a chair .
Bishop :
This is something that has never happened before . Even if something was wrong there are clear indications . I am not sure if what to do .
Monk :
Maybe your message has not yet reached the God .
Bishop:
This isn't possible just two hours ago I conducted another marriage and it was fine .
Lebe :
This is a disaster , just do something for now . The three gods have given their permission now only hod of light is left .
Bishop :
I umm don't know .
The bishop spotted me from a distance afar .
Bishop :
You boy come here .
Jay walked towards th bishop .
The bishop whispered something in his ear and Jay agreed .
The bishop returned to the stage and proclaimed .
" It seems my power to communicate with the God has decreased , but fret not . Here is a young devotee whose call the God definately listen "
Jay dressed in a devotee attire stood before the entire crowd of 200 .
Jay raised the sword in the air .
Jay : (Loudly and clearly )
My name is Jay Garrick I am. acting on behalf of the bishop .
I am asking the God of light Luminos
to approve the marriage of the
guildmasters son and the beautiful bride.
The sword suddenly started glowing brightly yellow . And the crowd was in an uproar .
The bride regained consciousness as she asked " What happened, did we get married yet ,"
The bride was in tears as he kept a hand in the bride's cheeks and replied
" Yes , we are finally married my dear "
He picked up the bride in Joy and spun her around .
And the crowd congratulated them .
The proxies and Jay acting on behalf of the Bishop gathered together and raised their symbols toward the couple .
All the proxies :
By the agreement of the gods we now declare you to the world as
Husband and Wife .
And the marriage was conducted peacefully .
Later during the reception in the night we met the couple .
Jay :
Congratulations on your wedding .
Groom :
My father told me everything about you . He told me you were a demon , but he was wrong .
I want to thank you for tieing us together.
Jay :
Don't worry ah and where the groom .
He pointed towards the both of them .
They were with Lilia and Livia and McElroy.
Jay :
Oh and before I forget here a gift from. me .
Jay held a gold Ingot in his hand
The groom saw the gold Ingot and immediately backed off in. it's sheer. presence .
Groom :
No no I can't take this . I'm grateful for this marriage . Thank you for saving our bond
Jay ,:
Oh is that so (both of us started laughing)
Meanwhile on the other side .
Bride :
I was totally wrong about Jay . He was. just portrayed by the guild as a demon . But he appeared like an deity and saved our marriage.
McElroy wanted to correct her. but refrained.
The reception ended with fireworks in their name . And everyone was dispersed .
McElroy:
Hey Jay how did you made the sword shine .
Jay :
We'll some things are better not revealed .
If you know then you know .
McElroy:
No fair come on spill the beans Jay .
Jay :
Nope not gonna .
