Chapter 200: Chapter 200. Public Speech
"What's going on?" Faren yelled loudly after hearing unnatural noises from outside, but no one answered him.
Everyone looked at each other, not knowing what to do. Just when Anuie was about to go out to inquire, the gate of the temple slowly opened.
As the gate opened, everyone saw a soaked gate, with water droplets mixed with a little red substance that looked identical to blood falling from the top of it.
"Did someone dare to attack the temple in broad daylight?" Rector exclaimed in confusion.
"If I remember correctly, there should be more than 100 royal knights outside maintaining order, right? If someone really attacked the temple, why hasn't anyone come to inform us?" Lewis asked with a frown.
"It seems like something significant has happened outside. Let's go have a look. There are a lot of civilians' parents at the entrance of the temple to witness Sylphy's marriage. If someone really attacked, then this is not a good thing," Faren spoke calmly.
Just as Faren finished saying that and was about to walk out, suddenly two people, one man and one woman, entered from the open gate, attracting everyone's attention.
But what made everyone confused was that they were arguing non-stop with each other like a husband and wife. The wife seemed in a dominating position because every time she spoke, the husband would try his best to calm her down with reasonable excuses.
"I told you they are not going to believe us. Look, I was right," The woman said angrily.
"But honey, they were just doing their job, and from their point of view, we are indeed uninvited guests here," The man calmly replied.
"Doing their job my foot! Don't you see their faces? They are just a bunch of perverts who only know how to take advantage of their posts. I wonder which bastard trained them. Didn't he teach them proper discipline?" The woman ranted.
Hearing the last line from the woman, Aniue, who was very angry at them for being so disrespectful in front of his Father and Mother couldn't help but be stunned because it was he who had taught them. Now someone pointing a finger at his education made him extremely uncomfortable.
Why do those two figures seem so familiar, especially their voices? Myne thought while trying to shield his eyes from the strong light coming from outside so he could see the faces of the two newcomers.

"Well, for this point, I am also with you. Those knights do indeed seem a little unruly. I will try to complain about their instructor to Your Majesty and suggest appointing someone else as the Royal Knight Inspector. But for now, please don't be angry at such a special event. You know, because of you, we are already quite late," The man said, trying to ease the tension.
"And this is also my fault? If not for you, I would have already shown those knights their place. Without the power to back their arrogance, they are clearly looking for trouble," The woman said disdainfully, finally showing her face to everyone.
She is a beautiful lady with aqua-blue hair and eyes, a slender, well-maintained body, light makeup on her face, and was wearing a dress that matched her hair colour with a golden chain around her neck and two golden earrings in her ears.
Beside her was walking an average-looking thin man who looked more like a butler than her husband, wearing an expensive-looking purple suit and holding a large gift in his hand.
"Sis?!" Myne exclaimed in surprise.
Yes, this couple is none other than Myne's big sister Maya, and her saintly husband Jin."
"Huh? Myne, please tell me your wedding ceremony is not complete!" Maya exclaimed after seeing Myne holding Aisha's hand who was in her bridal dress.
"Well, I'm afraid you're a little bit late," Myne said with a helpless smile.
"Myne, who are they?" Faren, who didn't see any of his royal knights instead two unfamiliar faces come inside, couldn't help but ask worriedly. From their simple conversation, he already had an idea about their identity.
"Father-in-law, she is my big sister, Maya Filsi, and beside her is her husband, Jin Filsi," Myne calmly introduced Maya and Jin to everyone, making Sylphy and Aisha very nervous. This was the first time they were going to meet Myne's only family member, whose status in his family is no different than his mother's.
They had already come to this conclusion after hearing how she had raised Myne after his parent's death.
"Look, Jin, just because of your nonsense, I missed my little brother's life's most important moment," Maya said while gritting her teeth, and a blue aura slowly started coming out from her body, along with murderous intent that was dense enough to send shivers down everyone's spines.
They never expected that Myne's big sister would be so dangerous, especially Faren, who had investigated Myne's big sister but had only learned that she was just a normal housewife.
Those bastards! After dealing with this mess, I will surely fire every one of those guys in the intelligence department. Is this what they call a normal housewife? This level of magic energy I have hardly seen dozens of times in my entire life. If this is normal, then what are we? Faren thought while trying to maintain his kingly image with a poker face, hiding his frightened expression.
"Calm down, Sis, there's no need to be so angry. Anyway, even if you came early, you wouldn't have been able to watch my wedding personally because, other than the groom and brides, only the temple head could enter the altar room during the ceremony.
Even Sylphy's family is not allowed to enter," Myne explained, trying to calm down Maya, who was about to attack poor Jin, who, even after knowing his wife's fierce temper, still dared to mess around at this critical moment, clearly looking for his own death.
"Really? Why? I never heard about such a weird custom," Maya asked raising her eyebrows in suspicion.
"Have you ever been to any royal family wedding before?"
"No..."
"Then how would you know about this? Big people have their own customs. How can their marriage custom be simple like that of commoners?" Myne replied helplessly, his mouth twisted in a wry smile.
"Well, you have a point. Sigh, Jin, although I'm forgiving you this time because of Myne, but still you might as well forget about your next three months' pocket money."
"Nooo, please don't do that! You already ate away my pocket money for this month, and now you also want to take away my next three whole months of pocket money. How am I going to buy my study materials this way?" Jin cried out in horror, hurriedly denying Maya's punishment for a crime that wasn't even a crime.
Wow, what wonderful acting. I have to say that Big Bro Jin, who is immune to Big Sis's beauty, is really not a simple person. If not for the fact that I had given him many platinum coins previously, I might have also been caught in his act like everyone else and only felt sympathy for him... Wait a minute, what if Big Sis took away that money as well..."
While ignoring Jin heartlessly, Maya, with a sweet smile on her face, came to Myne. She pushed him away a little bit and pulled confused Aisha and Sylphy close to her.
"Hmm, you two are the girls who dared to steal my little brother, huh? Although I didn't want to boost Myne's ego, but he has good taste... Anyway, welcome to the family. I hope you two take good care of my idiot little brother," Maya said gently while pinching Aisha's and Sylphy's cheeks.
"We will, please rest assured," Aisha replied gently with an awkward smile that looked quite cute while enduring the slight pain on her cheek.
"Good, and if he dares to make trouble for you, don't hesitate to come to me. I will teach him some discipline." While saying that, Maya rubbed her fist while giving Myne a knowing wink.
"Also, if the wedding ceremony is complete, what are we all still doing here? Let's go back to your room. I have a lot of things to tell you two..."
"Your Majesty, two miscreants have invaded the temple and injured hundreds of our—"
When Maya was happily talking with Aisha and Sylphy, a burly, muscular knight wearing golden armour suddenly ran into the temple hall. Without caring about manners or military rules, he headed straight toward Faren while screaming loudly. But, to his bad luck, before he could even finish his speech, out of nowhere, a big water jet shot towards him, sending him flying out of the temple.
There was again another round of deadly silence as everyone stared in shock at Maya's way of dealing with troublemakers.
"Sigh, so where was I? Oh yes, if you don't have anything else to do, let's go back now."
"Ms. Maya, although I understand your excitement, but can you wait a little bit? You see, as the husband of Sylphy, The first princess of the kingdom, Myne has to unveil himself to the general public and give a small speech," Faren said while being cautious and trying his best to not irritate Maya.
"Is there such a thing? Why didn't I know about it?" Myne asked in shock because, although he didn't mind killing people or dealing with them roughly, giving a public speech in front of more than hundreds of people was not his cup of tea.
"Now, this is quite interesting. Okay, I also want to see what kind of speech my little brother is going to give," Maya said with a playful smile, nodding her head with anticipation.
"Good, then follow me."
After saying that, Faren hurriedly led everyone to the right side of the hall, where a large, three-meter-tall silver door with various decorations tightly shut stood before them.
Coming to the door, Faren held its handle and looked at Myne, Aisha, and Sylphy, who were standing in front of everyone with smiles.
"Well then, are you ready? There will be a veranda after this door is opened. Please respond to the voices of the citizens by waving your hands and don't stop until you reach the platform..."
After finishing his sentence, Faren slowly opened the door with a creaking sound.
"Uooooooooooooooo!!!!"
When the door fully opened, everyone heard cheers like rumbles coming from the other side.
"Ohoho, this is going to be a lot of fun," Maya excitedly said while watching nervous Myne.
Sylphy, knowing that she had to take the lead to give Myne and Aisha courage, majestically walked over to the end of the veranda and smiled as she waved to the crowd.
With no other option, Aisha and Myne joined hands and timidly walked up to Sylphy's side with forced smiles.
As the citizens saw Aisha and Myne, they once again broke out in thunderous cheers. Clearly, they were more interested in them than in Sylphy, whom they had seen many times before.
Then, each time Sylphy waved her hand confidently with her beautiful smile, cheers broke out among the audience.
What's wrong with this crowd? Is Sylphy so famous that so many people came to watch Aisha and me? And why does it feel like I'm a monkey in a circus? But being admired and cheered by so many beautiful girls and MILFs is also not a bad experience," Myne thought while waving his hand toward the ladies on the left side with a wide smile, completely ignoring the men on his right.
For about ten minutes, even after reaching the platform, Myne and his wives continued waving their hands, as the enthusiasm of the citizens showed no sign of abating.
Finally, after getting a signal from Faren, The temple head, who was already standing on the platform, put a badge-like item on his chest before standing at the edge of the platform.
"Everyone who has gathered here, please quiet down. From here on, Her Highness Sylphid and her partner, Lord Myne, will speak."
Hearing the loud voice of the temple head, the audience finally calmed down, and a moment of silence returned to the hall.
Sylphy sent a backward glance at the trembling Myne, who was profoundly contemplating what kind of speech he was going to give in front of so many people while sweating buckets. Then with a sweet smile on her face, she came forward and began speaking...
"Hello, everyone, I am Sylphid Fortuna. I am extremely happy that you have spared your precious time to come here for us today..."
