Chapter 1079 Isabel's Wedding

In Avalon, couples often have a bachelor party the night before their wedding.

Usually the bride and groom would gather their friends and do whatever they wanted together. But it was obvious that Aiwass and Isabel would not do such a thing... not because they had to consider the impact, but because they really did not have that many friends.

Aiwass was okay, if you really wanted to find someone, you could find a lot of them, but Isabel didn't know many people her age.

Soon after she fell in love with Aiwass, she became the Queen of Avalon. She was high above, judged the situation, and shouldered heavy responsibilities.

Before she knew how to become a carefree girl, she had skipped this stage. Therefore, Aiwass chose to spend the night with Isabel - together with their few family members, they had a warm and unforgettable family dinner.

The wedding started the next morning before daybreak.

The two newlyweds boarded an open carriage from the Temple of Silver and Tin.

The Griffin Minister personally pulled the carriage and walked slowly on the street. From this perspective, perhaps it should also be called a Griffin carriage.

The huge griffin's feathers were pure white like snow, and under the morning light, they looked like a curtain of golden light. Its sapphire-like eyes radiated a majestic glow.

A luxurious embroidered blanket was draped over its back - embroidered by Isabel herself.

According to the tradition of Avalon at the beginning of its independence, every royal family member who gets married needs to design a pattern for a rug and drape it on the griffin pulling the wedding carriage.

The first set of blankets was made by Princess Guinevere herself, which is now the national emblem of Avalon - an emerald with an eye pattern inside a silver triangle.

After that, this blanket will be sold nationwide as a product similar to "peripheral goods" at the lowest price among similar materials. And the same pattern is also allowed to be copied by major vendors on their own bowls, basins, pots and bricks as a way of loyalty and support for the royal family members. When the royal family members die, the remaining unsold peripheral goods must be destroyed and no longer allowed to be sold.

The purpose of making this kind of peripherals is not to make a profit, but to show support for the royal family. Generally speaking, which kind of peripherals each family uses more represents which royal family member they prefer.

One of the characteristics of a revered king or queen is how long their peripherals can be used after they die, whether anyone will preserve them, and whether someone will buy them at a high price or auction them in the future.

Isabel not only designed it, she even made it herself, a feat that was easy for a versatile person to master in just one day.

In the carriage lined with red velvet, Aiwass and Isabel sat inside, waving or nodding to the citizens around them who came to watch the ceremony.

The attire that Aiwass chose was his best clothes - proof of his cardinalship.

The strange diamond-shaped crack on the chest is decorated with golden thorn patterns on the outside, and in the center of the crack should be a huge emerald surrounded by sin thorns. Inside it, there are layers of cracks that collapse inward, and the closer they are to the inside, the darker it appears, just like the iris and pupil.

But Aiwass was worried that the Sinthorn would hurt Isabel during the hug, so he used the power of the Sin Beast to eliminate the Sinthorn.

In fact, the thorn on the cardinal's certificate was originally for this purpose - this thorn is to make the cardinal stay away from others in order not to hurt them.

Because the gems clustered in it are essentially the deposit of the Pillar God's power. They are naturally sacred and cannot be touched by mortals... and the cardinal himself cannot get too close to people.

Just like the bishops of the church cannot treat people as they please - loving someone differently means that there is no possibility of devoting oneself to more people. That is precisely because of the lack of tolerance for "differences".

Therefore, after becoming a bishop, even if the church does not require abstinence, the probability of getting married will be greatly reduced.

The hem and cuffs of Aiwas's black robe had dark golden decorative patterns of scales and feathers. He wore a long golden shawl on his shoulders, embroidered with a black sinthorn pattern.

There was no doubt that it was a brilliant and sacred dress, an ascetic dress. Except for the huge gem inlaid on the chest, it covered the whole body. Even the neck was covered by the veil.

And Isabel also changed into a pure white wedding dress.

A total of nine hundred and ninety-nine wedding invitations were sent out, and there were nine hundred and ninety-nine pearls of different colors on Isabel's wedding dress.

Inheriting the sacred blood of "Lancelot of the Lake", Isabel's wedding dress is the same colors of lake blue, emerald green and pure white as the Glass Island and the Temple of Silver and Tin.

After all, the name of the surname "Du Lac" means "in the lake". Just looking at Isabel, you will feel like you are in the lake.

She did not wear the silver crown of the royal family, nor did she wear her former princess crown.

She was wearing a new crown made of a huge diamond. The diamond was made by Yulia herself and carved into a shell texture by Janice. It was also a wedding gift from Yulia and Janice to her.

One of the raw materials for making this diamond is Isabel's death diary.

She no longer needed it.

Isabel can now walk into the rain with her head held high and her chest held high. Moreover, when she looks up, she can see the sun.

But what surprised people was... they did not go to the Candlemas Cathedral.

Instead, it spans most of the Glass Island, passes through the Red Queen District and the White Queen District in a clockwise direction, and enters the Lloyd's District from east to west.

There were already magnificent elven warships waiting in the port area.

--boom!

Just as Aiwass and his men entered the Lloyd's Quarter, the sound of regular artillery fire was heard from the port area.

People were slightly startled for a moment, but soon realized that it was a wedding salute.

The crimson artillery fire rose into the sky, exploding into a ball of bright red or purple fire in the sky. Even in the morning sun, the traces could be seen clearly.

——That was not a divine spell from the church, but a gift from the wizards of the Narcissus Principality. The main body of those daytime fireworks was runes one after another. Among them were blessed holy ashes, which would not pollute the environment, but also allow all the people who came to watch the ceremony to receive a large-scale blessing.

Today is the Holy Wedding Day and the Coronation Day, and the entire Avalon is on holiday for seven days. Therefore, there will be no problem of not having time to come.

According to the old etiquette, in Avalon, if it was the monarch, not the prince or princess, getting married, then everyone was required to watch the ceremony or celebrate in their own way. It's hard to say about other places, but at least it was like this in Glass Island.

The salutes were fired again at regular intervals, and by the time the carriage arrived at the port, exactly ninety-eight salutes had been fired.

The Judgment Hall of Avalon was already fully present - they all had received wedding invitations. Then there were all the air cavalry, ministers, knights, judges of the Court of Justice, some inspectors of the Inspectorate, some inspectors and other soldiers who had received outstanding awards, as well as outstanding representatives from all walks of life, a few elite lawyers, and a small number of merchants from Lloyd's... On the contrary, Aiwass and Isabel's classmates and friends accounted for less than one-tenth of the number.

"I bless you, my friends."

Sitting in the carriage, Aiwas closed his eyes and prayed for them: "Thank you for coming to my wedding with Her Majesty the Queen." The antlers on his head emitted a rainbow glow, triggering the blessing ceremony that had already been arranged here.

With the blessing from the fifth-level Enlightener and the rituals of the fifth-level Great Sin Scholar, Aiwass's blessing can easily extend the life of all those attending the wedding by at least three years and cure all diseases.

After all, "wedding" itself is one of the sacraments of the church, and this link does exist.

It's just that the priests and bishops who presided over the weddings were not as skilled as Aiwas, so he decided to do it himself.

——Boom!

"Hail, Your Majesty!"

With the last volley, everyone stood at attention and blessed: "In the name of the candle, bless you!"

Both Aiwass and Isabel can be called "Your Majesty". So this ceremony is not wrong.

Isabel glanced at Aiwass with a smile and kissed the side of Aiwass's face, who had a solemn expression.

"Are you nervous?"

She whispered in Aiwass's ear.

She could feel that since Aiwas got on the carriage, his body had become stiff. He had a stern face, a fox-like rigid smile, and politely greeted everyone. But Isabel could clearly feel that Aiwas's heartbeat was alarmingly fast.

After that, Isabel gently licked Aiwass's earlobe, which made Aiwass shudder suddenly.

——It’s impossible not to be nervous, right?
Aiwass looked back at Isabel with some resentment, and Isabel boldly kissed him directly.

He relaxed immediately, hugged Isabel with his backhand and kissed her vigorously. He even pressed his whole body on Isabel, but stretched out an arm to cushion Isabel's back to prevent him from really pressing her or hurting her.

Amid the people's exclamations and cheers that were getting louder and louder, Aiwass and Isabel kissed each other deeply for a long time. The cameras in the hands of the reporters were flashing.

After a long time, Isabel buried her head in Aiwass's neck with a flushed face, trying to cool herself down first. The two of them rubbed their ears together, and Aiwass did not kiss her again, but closed his eyes and sniffed the warm breath emanating from each other's neck and collarbone.

But the temperature never dropped, and Isabel's eyes even softened like water. And Aiwass was also gentle like the Son of God, with his lowered eyes as sacred as someone praying to God.

At this moment, Yulia, who was dressed equally beautifully, walked out of the crowd and handed Isabel a large bouquet of flowers mixed with myrtle.

Today, she did not wear the white robe that was convenient for experiments and work, which had been a long time since she last wore it. Instead, she wore a white gauze skirt made of the same material.

"I must buy a hundred copies of tomorrow's newspaper."

As Yulia handed the flowers to Isabel, she whispered, "One hundred copies for each newspaper."

There is no doubt that tomorrow's newspaper will definitely have this scene. And it is likely that the angle and content of each newspaper will be different... It can be said to be of great collection value.

Isabel took the flowers, touched Julia's nose shyly, and got out of the carriage with Aiwas.

Aiwass smiled and reached out to gently touch Yulia's forehead, then walked down with Isabel.

Yulia shook her head helplessly and stayed at the door, ready to help Isabel lift her skirt when she walked away.

Isabel's skirt was at least seven meters long and extremely heavy. But when Yulia reached out her hand, she felt it was extremely light - only then did Yulia realize that the long skirt was actually an illusion!
No one present realized this, even the camera was fooled.

There are seven elven warships parked at the port, symbolizing the number of authority - today's theocracy is also willing to give the Silver Crown Dragon a lot of room for the Holy Number.

There were three cardinals who came to greet him.

Cardinal Matilda, Cardinal Galatea, Cardinal Siegfried.

As tall elves, they stood in the middle of all the elves - and the color of their clothes was different from that of the bishops and archbishops. You know, even the only archbishop in Avalon now has seven ships standing. The third-level bishops are not worthy of appearing in such an occasion.

Even if people don't know the rules that require cardinals to wear special attire, they can know that these three people are the core rulers of the theocracy.

——The ruler of the Holy Circle of the Eternal Theocracy, the Cardinal!

Among them, Cardinal Galatea was riding a unicorn in the middle, while the other two cardinals stood on the left and right, serving beside them.

"In the name of the candle, I bless you. May you always be happy."

When Aiwass approached, the three cardinals saluted him with a smile, and Aiwass also saluted them in return.

It was not until then that those who came to watch the ceremony finally realized that it was not a rumor that Aiwass had served as acting pope for several months.

The attitude of the cardinals of the Church at this moment has proved everything!
Who else but the former pope could make the great cardinals bow? !

Even the monarchs of the mortal world would never do that!

This is as sacred as the incarnation of God!

Then the camera's light lit up again, brighter than daylight.

People finally realized why the wedding was not held in the Candlemas Cathedral...

——How could the Cathedral of Avalon contain the glory of Cardinal Aiwas?

The next moment, everyone who knew a little about the occult was stunned:

Cardinal Galatea got off the "horse" and let Aiwass hold Isabel and ride on it!

The unicorn did not resist at all.

Why can Aiwass ride a unicorn?
