Chapter 2227: Planning a wedding
"These are the places that we’ll need security in."
Though they were supposed to be planning for a wedding, these were the things that were being discussed.
It wasn’t that they were preparing security because it was a royal wedding.
It was all because they knew that this wedding was supposed to be a distraction, which made it a likely target for the forces of Destruction.
Hearing them talk about this made me feel guilty since I knew that Noah was using his wedding like this for me. Though it wasn’t all completely for me since it was also for the good of the continent, I knew that it was mainly because of me.
As such, I really wanted to do something for him.
It was just that whenever I tried to help, I would always be chased away.
"Go and prepare for your trial." That was what Noah or the people that he assigned to chase me away would say.
It wasn’t that he didn’t want me to be a part of the wedding, it was that the whole wedding was supposed to be a distraction from the fact that I was supposed to be taking this trial.
Which was why they didn’t let me participate at all.
However, it wasn’t as if I was going to let that stop me.
It was unknown how long it would take for this trial, so I had come to the conclusion that I would at least show myself at his wedding.
Though if they did catch me, I did have the excuse that it was better to show myself so that no one suspected anything that I could use. But before that, I would find a way to show myself at the wedding without anyone noticing.
It was better if it was a surprise for Noah.
I just wanted to see that look of surprise on his face.
Other than them planning everything related to security, they were also properly planning the wedding.
The one that took the lead in planning the wedding itself was actually Shadow One, who was now going by the name Sakura. Or was it better to say that this was her original name in the first place...
It wasn’t something that anyone actually knew since her name had been erased when she became a shadow.
However, it wasn’t as if one could marry a former prince and the current prime minister if they didn’t have a proper identity. So even if it was fake, she needed an identity.
But no one really minded her identity since everyone in the family knew how Noah felt and that was the most important thing.
Since Sakura was the one that was planning everything, it meant that she was the one that I had to consult on this matter.
"This isn’t what he would want."
That was her first response to my request.
Even before being married, she was already thinking about what her future husband wanted. Though in terms of time together, the two of them had been together for quite a while now and they had worked closely.
So it wasn’t strange that she would know a lot about Noah.
"Maybe, but I have to show myself at the very least. If I don’t do that, I think you should know what others will say."
Seeing her bite her lip, I knew that she was convinced.
It wasn’t just about the rumours, it was also about making this realistic so that people would believe the distraction.
Though I could also see that she was agonizing over this since it was her wedding.
It was only normal that a bride would want their wedding to be perfect.
After a long silence, Sakura finally agreed to work with me for this surprise.
What tipped the decision wasn’t just the fact that it was necessary for the wedding to work as a distraction. It was that she knew that this was a family affair and it was important for them to function as a proper family.
So that was why she decided that it was best if the entire family was at the wedding.
Though from the looks of it, it also seemed like there was a part of her that was still part of the shadow guards. It also seemed like she was doing this because I was the king and I was asking for this.
The shadow guards had been trained to serve the royal family and be deathly loyal to them. In the first place, they were supposed to sacrifice themselves if it was necessary to protect the royal family.
Which also made it a bit ironic that she was joining the royal family as an in law.
Still with Sakura’s help, things definitely became much easier.
Time passed and everything was prepared.
The invitations were sent and everyone agreed to come.
At the same time, there were many different news outlets that were invited.
Even though it wasn’t a royal wedding, it was a wedding that had caught everyone’s attention since it was the wedding of the prime minister of the Kite Kingdom. He was considered someone that had quite the high status in the racial alliance.
At the same time, many people knew that he was the one that really ran the Kite Kingdom.
Many people wanted to approach him because of this, but they never really had the opportunity to do so.
This wedding was one that no one wanted to miss.
That included me who was currently hiding in the back.
I couldn’t show my face too early since that would just take away from the surprise, but I also couldn’t hide away here forever.
At this point, I was just waiting for my cue to come out.
This was a surprise that Noah certainly would be taken aback with.
"It’s time."
When that person came in to find me, there was even a smile that appeared on my face.
It was the smile of someone that was about to play a naughty trick.
