Several priests turned on their mana light so that Arielle's path was getting brighter. Arielle frowned when she saw someone with red hair sitting near her brother. He was the only person who chose to sit besides Ronan.
When Maxieno stole glances at her, Arielle gave him a small smile, making the man grumble in his place.
Arielle turned back to the front. Priest Elis arrived with a red cushion that would be used for Arielle to kneel. The girl clapped her hands together in front of Priest Louise like the painting of the Moon Goddess behind the altar.
Priest Louise took Arielle's hands and rubbed it gently. Then, he wrapped a necklace with a pendant of a wolf. The man then took a step back.
"Your Highness, are you willing to take the Oath?" asked Priest Louise.
Arielle was silent for a few seconds then answered in a very calm and clear voice.
"I will."
Priest Louise then received Arielle's oath declaration book and read it.
