In Another World, the Boy Was Spoiled by the Iron Knight!-Chapter 318: A Shower of Blessings

The two of them walked through the rows of guests and stood before the temple doors.

The priests bowed deeply and opened the heavy doors for them.

When they stepped outside, the knights were lined up in perfect rows in front of the temple.

"Congratulations!"

Their deep voices rang out together as they saluted sharply.

With that many knights gathered in one place, the sight was truly overwhelming.

Dominic returned the salute sharply.

Yes, he looked cool.

"Congratulations, Lord Shiao Yi!"

"Congratulations, Lord Dominic!"

The lines of knights broke formation and they threw the flowers they held high into the air, showering the two of them in petals.

It was not only the second division almost all the knight order in the royal capital seemed to be there.

When Shiao Yi looked at them closely, he also saw people from the fifth division of the Dashtadem Fortress.

They were the first people he met when he came to this world.

He felt nostalgic.

Did they all come today just for this?

Seeing them made Shiao Yi understand how much everyone loved and respected Dominic.

And feeling that made him happy as if it were his own praise.

There was going to be a banquet after this.

The great hall of the royal palace was offered as the banquet venue.

His Majesty and the knights had been full of excitement and had prepared everything with great energy.

Shiao Yi had begged them to keep it simple, saying something modest was more than enough, but they did not listen at all.

They were on their way there now, but he felt a bit scared.

Was it really not allowed to just go home instead?

As they moved from the church’s front garden toward the main street, the knights split into two large groups to let them pass.

Then, a huge cheer rose up.

From the main street all the way to the open front garden of the temple, the people of the city had gathered so tightly that they filled every space.

"Lord Dominic, congratulations!"

"Congratulations on your marriage!"

"We wish you happiness!!"

The voices of the people’s blessings rushed toward them like a great wave.

Was Dominic really this popular?

It felt almost too much.

In the best mood possible, Dominic smiled and waved at them. Then an even larger cheer three times louder than before rose in response.

Please stop...

Shiao Yi had always been feared, hated, and treated like an object.

He had never been welcomed in a place like this.

He did not know how to react and panic filled him.

"Lord Shiao Yi, please wave back as well. The two of you are the first same-sex couple. The law was changed and now same-sex marriage is newly allowed. You will make a good public example."

When Shiao Yi looked up at Dunyarzad, he saw a soft smile on his face.

Shiao Yi had always thought he looked cold and stern with those deep lines on his forehead, but he was the father of Camilla, the wife of Louis.

Maybe he was actually a gentle person.

If their marriage could help others like them walk proudly together, then Shiao Yi wanted to hold his head high and stand with confidence.

He slowly raised his hand and waved to the people.

"Kyaa, so cute!"

"Is he really a man?"

The high-pitched voices of the women rose.

"I want a cute spouse like that too!"

The reaction from the crowd was good.

Shiao Yi waved his hand a little bigger.

Everyone kept waving back at him with loud cheers.

He felt a little happy and when he started waving with both hands, someone wrapped an arm around his waist.

"Kyaa!!"

A scream-like cheer burst out.

When he looked beside him, Dominic was looking down at him with an annoyed expression.

"You don’t need to smile at everyone like that."

Hey, Dominic. Was that jealousy? It’s so cute. Shiao Yi didn’t dislike that possessiveness at all.

Their wedding banquet was being held in the great hall of the royal palace.

It sounded absurd, didn’t it?

Dominic aside, he was having a wedding, worse, he was the bride... Well, better to not think about that too deeply.

He felt like someone who had reached enlightenment.

But the royal palace... what kind of status did this even mean?

The polished marble corridor had a high ceiling and rows of decorated pillars.

The large double doors were made of thick, hard wood covered in detailed carvings, shining with a glossy surface.

They must have been polished for a very long time.

The inside of the door was lined with cushioned silk, insulating the sounds from the hall.

For someone used to steel doors and aluminum panels, even the door alone made him want to run away.

The feeling of being out of place was overwhelming.

This castles were seriously incredible.

So having a banquet here... what kind of torture was this?

But Dominic grabbed his arm tightly, so he couldn’t escape.

The man must have noticed how nervous Shiao Yi was.

"Don’t even think about leaving me alone and running away," he murmured in Shiao Yi’s ear.

"I’m enduring this too. So, stay with me."

Hey, wasn’t he the one who betrayed him first!?

When Shiao Yi glared at him, Dominic simply kept a calm expression and faced the door.

He keep standing straight with perfect posture, Dominic looked amazing.

Wearing his formal wedding uniform, he seemed to shine like a man too perfect to be real.

Shiao Yi caught himself staring, his face softening without control.

His husband was too handsome, it was a real problem.

While he was thinking that, the large doors slowly began to open.

Damn it! He missed his chance to escape!

It was bright outside with the strong afternoon sunlight, but the great hall that was made of stone didn’t let in as much natural light as the terrace.

But the huge chandeliers hung from the ceiling raining down sparkling light.
