Chapter 14: The Wedding Procession

Prince Berg’s residence.
The Prince’s residence was extremely luxurious and was currently beautifully dressed.
In the hall stood a pale-faced young man, dressed in formal attire, who was obviously drunk and lascivious. He yawned listlessly when he saw Celt who had rushed over.
“Has the fifteenth young master accepted the invitation?”
This man was Prince Berg of the Simon Empire.
He had heard Celt mention yesterday that the fifteenth young master of the Illumination Empire was temporarily staying at Dawn Inn. He had specially prepared an invitation for Celt to pass onto him, hoping that he would attend his wedding.
The nine empires of the rune world had frictions between them, and there were also small-scale wars.
Of the nine great empires, the Simon Empire was the weakest and was often ostracized by other empires. If they could gain the favor of the Xizhao Empire, the other empires would not dare to easily target the Simon Empire.
That was why Berg had asked Celt to invite the fifteenth young master to his wedding.
“No, the fifteenth young master is currently in seclusion to cultivate runes and cannot attend.”
Lugh, who was disguised, imitated Celt’s attitude and said in a gentle tone, “Your Highness, the fifteenth young master is too arrogant. I haven’t even seen him.”
Berg sneered. “If you don’t want to come, then don’t come. I wanted to get to know him, but since he doesn’t want to show his face, then let’s forget it.
“Let’s go. Follow me to Earl Wilson’s to receive the bride... Hahaha, the number one beauty of the Simon Empire, Camia, will finally become my woman today.
“Let her be proud. How dare she not agree to the marriage? In the end, she wanted to marry me. Tonight, let her see what a man is!”
Berg laughed loudly. The expression on his face was distorted. As he laughed, he moved his lower body, as if he had already pressed Camia under his crotch.
Lugh sneered secretly and followed behind Berg. 𝒇𝙧𝚎𝐞𝙬𝒆𝑏𝑛𝑜v𝚎𝒍.c𝑜m
Outside the door, more than ten carriages were lined up. These carriages were filled with gifts. In front of them was a guard of honor, holding all kinds of musical instruments.
Berg led the way, followed by the other nobles. The group of people marched toward Earl Wilson’s mansion.
Earl Wilson was one of the four great Earls of the Simon Empire. Not only that, but Earl Wilson was also a powerful rune-master. He had experienced dozens of battles on the battlefield of the heavens and was one of the twelve guards of the human race, his prestige in the Simon Empire and the army was very high.
The roadside was full of pedestrians. They stood on their tiptoes and looked curiously at the wedding procession. The Guard of Honor played music and the ribbons drifted away. It was a scene of celebration and joy.
Soon, they arrived at the territory of Earl Wilson. However, the atmosphere was immediately different after they arrived.
The roadside was still full of pedestrians. These people were different from the civilians they had seen earlier. They wore shabby military uniforms, with various medals hanging on their chests. Some of them even had broken limbs.
Their faces were cold. They did not say a word. They just stood by the roadside and stared at Berg.
These were all veterans under Earl Wilson who had fought on the battlefield.
Berg did not seem to notice them. His expression was full of indifference. He even smiled and said to Lugh and the others, “Do you see? Today, I’m going to marry Wilson’s precious daughter, Camia. These unruly people are starting to get angry? Hahaha...”
“So what if they’re angry?
“No one can stop me from sleeping with Camia today. I want her to submit to my crotch.”
Berg’s expression was extremely arrogant.
Hehe! Lugh laughed coldly in his heart. No one can stop you, right?
Lugh’s killing intent filled his heart. He decided to kill this son of a b*tch when he was preparing to get married.
“Hahaha, Camia will definitely kneel down and beg His Highness for sex.”
“Even an aloof woman is a woman. Won’t she look like a slut after sleeping with him?”
“It’s Camia’s honor to have his highness visit her.”
Hearing Berg’s words, the other nobles followed suit and revealed lewd smiles. It seemed that these nobles could die as well.
Berg curled the corners of his mouth and waved his hand. “Men, carry over ten boxes of silver coins and scatter them. I don’t believe that these unruly people won’t be moved by money. Scatter them... scatter them all...”
Boxes of silver coins were thrown at the veterans.
The silver coins landed on the ground and, under the sunlight, they shone with a cold light.
However, no one bent down to them pick up. They did not even look at them.
Their clothes were shabby and their faces were cold. Some of them were missing limbs. It was obvious that their life after leaving the army had not been very good, but no one moved.
Even Lugh saw disdain and mockery in the eyes of these veterans. They stood straight, forming two human walls on both sides of the thousand-meter-long road.
Solemn, solemn...
No one made a single sound.
They just stared at the wedding procession.
The silver coins on the ground seemed so ironic.
Lugh took a deep breath and tried his best to control his killing intent. He was afraid that he could not help but kill Berg here and now.
This son of a b*tch actually treats the soldiers of the Simon Empire like this. These veterans fought on the battlefield for the sake of the human race and the Simon Empire. Some died on the battlefield, while some became disabled from then on. Today, Berg, the Prince of the Empire, actually humiliated these veterans like this!
The Simon Empire was really rotten.
Lugh lowered his head, and flames seemed to shoot out of his eyes.
Such a royal family, such a country, should all be dead.
