What is this?

　I was at a loss for words at the sight of it all. Because when we got out of the carriage, the citizens of this royal capital were gathered in front of us.

　This gathering place is located in the royal palace and is a balcony where the king delivers a speech to his soldiers and citizens whenever something happens. Therefore, quite a few people can enter it.

　If you exclude the soldiers here for security, there would be 20,000 citizens alone. A quarter of the citizens in King's Landing have gathered here.

　We were unloaded from the carriage by the stairs leading to the balcony of the royal palace. Alexia and the others are laughing at our startled expressions, while Pricia and the others, as well as Dagris and the others in the other carriage, share the same expression on their faces. Viscount Kenus must have known because he was normal.

　And on the balcony, there's the King, the Beast King, and even the Pope. I guess they were already there. Next to them is Caro, who secretly waves to me. Behind the king were the queens, along with the princes and Princess Marina, and behind them, along with the ministers, were Dr. Eileen and Lady Eliza. Could they be replacing Zeke and Elise?

Good evening, ladies and gentlemen! Our heroes of the day are here!　Let's have a big round of applause!

　The king confirms that we've come down and shouts that to the citizens. Then the citizens hear that and they all cheer and applaud in unison. ........This is great. And before I know it, Caro comes down the stairs and pulls me by the hand.

'Come on, let's go!

　Caro takes my hand on the right, and Alexia takes my hand on the left. Ferris follows behind her, followed by Aeris and the others.

'Curle!'

　Halfway up the stairs, Ekla flew over my head. Maybe she wanted to see the view from higher up. Then I think she should fly, but I hear it's better above my head. And from all around me.

'Wow!　Cute!

That's a dragon, right?

d*mn, I got a dragon.

My little Ekla!

"Zilong-tan, huh, huh?

　And various voices from the citizens who saw Ekla. ........I think I just heard Levin's voice. I look at the citizens, but there are too many to recognize them. Is it my imagination?　Oh, and that last one, I memorized his face. Don't ever go near Ekla.

　We walk up the balcony despite hearing those voices. Once we reach the top of the stairs, only me, Alexia, Ferris and Caro are ushered in front of the kings.

'All of you!　I asked you to gather here today so that I can introduce you to this man!　This one, Ravert Lanwalker, as some of you may know, was one of the first to defend our Nanor Kingdom during the goblin outbreak in Baron Mangs' territory!　And this boy played a role in the attack on the royal palace four years ago!

　The citizens ooh and aah at the king's speech. Alexia proudly throws out her chest. The citizens see it and shout differently than they cheered. The men see too much. Then, as if to replace the king, the Beast King steps forward.

'That's right!　Four years ago, he sacrificed his own arm to save my daughter from being captured by the enemy!

　At those words from the Beast King, the citizens shouted, especially the women, cah!　And then I raise my voice. Women seem to like stories like that, don't they? Like a knight fighting for his life to save a princess' life.

　On the contrary, Ferris shunned it. I wonder if she's remembering what happened then. I hold Ferris' hand so that everyone can't see me. Ferris, whose face was turned down, looks up to look at me, and I smile up at her.

　Ferris has worked pretty hard since then to get to the point where he's competitive with Alexia and Aeris. It won't be like that time again. Ferris also looks at me and smiles.

　And then he replaces the Beast King and the Pope steps forward.

''When he came to our country, our capital was threatened by the demon race and the old dragon. With the sacrifices of our knights, we managed to defeat the threat, but if he hadn't defeated the demon race, we would have suffered even more losses than this one!　Several lives were saved because of him!

　When the Pope says this, the citizens shout again. And the heat is slowly rising. Caro looks at me and smiles. And once again, the king comes forward.

　I must let him take a reward for such a tremendous achievement. However, as he was still a student, they thought it would be useless to give him a title. So, with the hope of his own people, this is the reward. Before all of you.

　And I'm being led away by Alexia and the others who come forward. This can't be right.

"The Kingdom of Nanor hereby announces the engagement of Ravert Lanwalker to the First Princess Alexia Nanor!

'My beast nation, Warbest, announces the engagement of Ravert Lanwalker to the First Princess Felice Warbest!

Our Arcadia Papacy announces the engagement of Ravert Lanwalker to the First Princess Caroline Arcadia!

　The moment the kings of the three nations made their announcements to each of them, the citizens were so surprised that they were silent. That's probably true too. Until now, there have been times when they have taken a princess to wife, but never in three countries. But in the next moment, there was an explosion of cheers. ........This is great.

''See, Ray. The main character has to do something up here.

Yes. Just be smart about it.

It's our master's debut.

　Alexia, Ferris, and Caro will each tell me to do something, in that order. What do I do when they tell me to do something.... For now, I step forward from everyone. That's all it took for the citizens to get quiet. Wow, I'm nervous about this.

　I take out the Rowga from my item ring and raise it powerfully to the sky. At that moment, a flash of lightning rises high into the sky from the Louga, and lightning gushes around the flash.

''Squeak, squeak!

　Ekla purred happily. Is she happy because she has the same attributes as me?　The citizens were forever admiring the pillar of light reaching high into the sky, but one by one they were cheering, and now it was the biggest cheer of the day. It's a little embarrassing, but I guess that means everyone recognizes us. This is how it was announced that we were engaged.
