May 19, 3460.

Ernest Lilim Andrew, 3rd Prince of Egelea, age 16.

The 3rd Princess of the Kingdom of Klein, Rieschen Fuchsische Klein. 15 years old.

The two were to hold a wedding ceremony.

The vows, the cornerstone of the ceremony, were said in the back of the castle by the royal family and their relatives only, but the reception that followed was a lively affair.

The couple came to the hall where the wedding party was to be held, being congratulated by the people from the back of the castle.

This is the place where the Golem garden party was held in the past.

For a while, there were still scars from the destruction, but now it had been completely restored to its former glory.

Congratulations, Your Highnesses!

Congratulations!

Thank you.

Thank you!

They are now old enough to be adults in this world.

Prince Ernest has grown taller and more gallant as a young man, and Princess Rieschen has become a graceful lady.

The two stood at the center of the platform set up at the front of the large hall, being congratulated by the knights and ladies who worked at the castle. Behind them, the kings of each country sat side by side.

The wedding reception of His Royal Highness Prince Ernest of the Kingdom of Egelea and Her Royal Highness Princess Rieschen of the Kingdom of Klein is about to begin.

The voice of the magic instrument resounded, and the large hall was filled with applause.

First of all, we will have congratulatory speeches from the representatives of each country. ......His Majesty the Emperor of the Shoro Kingdom

The empress stood up, smiled kindly at the two, and began to congratulate them.

"Congratulations, Your Majesty! To the Kingdom of Egelea and the Kingdom of Klein, I extend my congratulations."

The emperor breaks off and bows to the people in attendance. Then she continued her greetings.

"...... I would like to share with all those present the joy of celebrating the young couple on this auspicious occasion. I wish you many years of happiness. Gerhard Hilde von Rubies Shawlo, Emperor of the Shawlo Empire."

There was a round of applause.

Then Cesar Valois de Celuloa, King of Celuloa, Lotharus de Franz (née Lafayette), King of Franz, and Alois Lux Klein, King of Klein, offered their congratulations one by one.

The last one is King Alphonse Alba Elias of the Kingdom of Elias.

His father had been bedridden for a long time, so he used to run most of the country's affairs, but now he has officially taken over the throne and is a very successful king.

Thank you very much. Thank you very much. The distinguished guests have offered their congratulations. Please give them one more round of applause.

The people gathered in the hall gave a hearty round of applause.

The guests of honor continued their congratulations. ......

The reception proceeded in a lively manner.

(As usual, this kind of ceremony is tiring.)

Jin, one of the guests of honor, looked at the happy couple and grumbled.

There was a wide space below the podium where they were standing, where various entertainment was being held.

（Oh, it's the Ste-Arena!)

(Oh, the ste arena!) Right now, three crystal golems in the ste arena are performing a song and dance.

The red ruby golem, the yellow citrine golem, and the light blue topaz golem were singing, dancing, and performing in a spectacular manner.

(I remember it was Ceres, the crystal golem, at that time.)

Jin remembered with nostalgia the old golem garden party when he met Stearina for the first time.

(Reinhardt this time, right?)

The black knight (Schwarzlitter <>) is holding up a mock sword and shield, and is performing a dynamic demonstration. In the background, the military band of the Shoro Empire is playing magnificent music.

Since Prince Ernest is fond of Golem automata, many of the performances were relatively related to them, but some of them were ordinary people singing songs or reciting poems.

Among the human performances, the one that caught Jin's attention was a skit.

The skit reminded Jin of a .

Next, the representative of the Nostalgia Party, Elena!

"Oh?"

Jin paid attention.

To his surprise, Elena was present.

"My name is Elena. I am the honorary advisor of the Nostalgia Party.

Elena greeted the guests in the same voice as in the past, rolling bells, and began to sing while dancing slowly.

Blue sky, white clouds

The sun shining brightly, the moon shining quietly

Twinkling stars, winds across the world

Healing waters that flow around us Flames that burn

The earth of blessings, the forest of harvests.

Flowering meadows, sheer mountains.

Quiet lakes ......"

The audience all looked at Elena as if they had forgotten how to breathe.

"On this good day, I wish for the best for the two souls who are joined together. ......"

The speech ended with a congratulatory prayer.

When Elena bowed in curtsy, the audience burst into applause and cheers.

(Elena does it too!).

She does not have eyes that have < effect now, but her gesture seemed to fascinate the public.

After the performance, the gifts were presented. Jin is here.

After the presentation of some magical tools and works of art.

Sir Jin Nidor, Magecraft Meister, presents a car.

"Oh," came the cry.

It is the same type of car that was once presented to the female emperor.

It is a classic car in design. <. In other words, it is a <>.

Its top speed is about 20 km/h, so it is more of a hobby than a practical product.

In fact, it is possible to make a horse-drawn carriage that can go up to 60 kilometers per hour, but it has to be detuned to the utmost to avoid injury to the royalty in case they are injured.

If it becomes popular from such a point of view, I can't help but think that it will be ...... someday.

(It was not so popular even after 400 years...)

(I hope it will not be so popular 400 years later...) Jin remembers that golem horses were more culturally acceptable and that carriages driven by golem horses were more popular than cars.

* * * * *

The reception continued into the night. It was a standing buffet party.

"Jin!　We can finally talk!

Jin!　You've come!"

Prince Ernest and Princess Rieschen came to Jin and smiled tiredly. It seemed that this party was too much even for the royal family.

"Congratulations on your wedding!

Jin greeted her in a rather formal way since it was a public event.

"Thank you.

"I would have brought Elsa, but she's still too young..."

"Oh, yes!　You told me you had twins.

Yes, their names are Yu and Mio.

I hope to meet them someday.

Then Reinhard and Stearina arrived.

"Oh, Reinhard!

"Hello, Stearina, it's been a long time."

Enjoying a moment of laughter with their old friends, the two gentlemen smiled carefree smiles as if they were back in the old days.
