Overgeared

Sehee couldn’t forget the first time she saw Mercedes. Mercedes caught her eye at once. She was so pretty that Sehee’s head became blank for a moment. It was like this even though Mercedes had no clear expression. Sehee wondered if she was a doll.

Thus, she was surprised at this moment.

‘Her expression...?’

Mercedes’ cheeks were slightly puffed up as she looked at the backs of Grid and Basara. Her usually always calm eyes were shaken and the water in them made her feel pitiful. Unlike Yura and Jishuka, who distinguished Satisfy from reality, Mercedes seemed quite agitated by Grid’s marriage.

Mercedes’ expression was very vivid. It was so different from her usual appearance that she seemed to be a completely different person. Now Mercedes was absolutely a young woman. The weapons she had always carried looked heavy and awkward today.

Irene was the one who reached out to her. She smiled and soothed Mercedes, despite being the one who should feel more sadness than anyone else. “Don’t be disappointed. The order of second or third doesn’t matter. His Majesty’s love for you won’t change forever.”

She had first-hand experience with Grid’s love, so she could say this. Mercedes looked down at her cold gauntlets and nodded. “Yes.”

I am sorry to show an inappropriate appearance for a celebration day.

I fully understood My Liege’s position, etc.

Mercedes couldn’t bear to say such words, so she gave a brief answer. She thought there would be tears flowing if she said anything else.

Her liege, who loved her a few days ago.

Her liege, who she believed she would be sharing with her queen, married someone else. Mercedes felt embarrassed, sad, and jealous.

That night, on the city wall illuminated by blue moonlight.

“Mercedes.” Grid fell to one knee and held out a ring inlaid with transparent jewels. “Marry me.”

Not long ago, Grid and Mercedes confirmed each other’s hearts. The two people were so hot that they melted the ice caps of the Chaos Mountains. They heard each other’s breathing, not the screams of the monsters. It was their sweat, not the blood of the beasts, that wet the bodies of the two people. How many times did the two of them do it on that day...

Omitted.

...Therefore, Grid was obligated to take responsibility for Mercedes. Even if it wasn’t an obligation, he wanted to turn it into an obligation. He definitely wanted to be with Mercedes. Grid had been fascinated by her a long time ago.

“I’m sorry, but our marriage ceremony won’t be grand...”

Grid’s lawful wife was Irene. Basara had the status of former empress and a legitimate line of descent of the empire. Thus, he had to hold a grand wedding ceremony. Meanwhile, this was a special case. The marriage to Mercedes should be done as decisively as possible. This was the greatest courtesy toward Irene.

“If it is okay with you— no, you must marry me...”

It was even before Grid finished speaking.

Nod.

Mercedes nodded vigorously. She was looking down and her expression couldn’t be seen. However, Grid felt it. Just as he felt her mood behind him during the daytime wedding, Grid’s transcendent senses clearly analyzed Mercedes at this moment.

Therefore, he hugged her as hard as he could. It was to let his heart be conveyed.
