Reincarnated as a Son of the Sword Saint and the Sage

After the archbishop pronounced the matrimony of the three brides, they ecstatically exited the chapel with their arms closed, and then the families and guests followed suit.

As we planned, after the ceremony, the brides boarded a horse-drawn carriage modified into a float that was excessively covered in flowers and paraded themselves around the city. That was the purpose of the space in the middle of the crowd in the palace's courtyard—to give way to the brides.

Their parade around the city was scheduled for around an hour. While my newlywed mothers were celebrating with the masses, the guests then proceeded to the next venue for the afterparty.

Currently, we were at the central gallery of the orangery of the palace, the venue for receptions after the wedding as well as the cocktail party. The venue shaded the guest from the summer heat as well as providing the guest with a picturesque view of the orchard outside, so that was why we chose this place.

Since the palace was just newly built, there was no way for the fruit trees to grow in such a short time. For that reason, I somewhat cheated on it and used my Unique Skill: Botanist to manipulate the growth rate of the shrubs and trees, making them almost at the time of their first harvest. It was also for aesthetics, so that it would look pleasing to everyone's eyes.

The venue was adorned with various decorations other than its beautiful and state-of-the-art objects, such as the shining chandeliers and statues of gryphons that posed like that in heraldry emblems. There were flowers of different shapes and colors, and some palm trees were placed at the arched openings.

The wait was quite long, so in the meantime, the guests were having some refreshments as they socialized with others. The orchestra also transferred here, so there was some soothing and relaxing music playing in the background to liven up the venue.

At the moment, I was sitting on my seat around a round table with my sister, flanked by our own fiancees.

"—Last year, Louise was so popular in the academy because of her beauty, strength, and charisma that she was courted by several students, including some seniors."

On the table, we were chatting with each other, discussing some topics about ourselves, to kill time as we waited for the party to start. Just now, Christine recapped some events that happened to them during their days in the academy.

"But Louise was unbothered by their efforts, and she just flatly rejected them all. For those who were persistent, all they needed to do was defeat her in a duel, but before they could challenge her, they should defeat her brother first."

"It's been a while," I chimed in. "A few freshmen students from the academy visited our residence back in the now-Lavender City, and they suddenly challenged me in a duel. Of course, they were no match for me. There was even one who passed out before the match started."

"You must be thinking that they don't deserve your sister."

"Well, that was indeed my reason," I responded to Iris's statement. "Also, I wanted them to save their efforts for another because they did not have a chance on my sister, as she likes women. But without that, I would not have met Alexander, so he probably would not be able to introduce me to you, Iris."

"Even if that were the case, we would still be in the same class. It seems like our destiny has been bonded no matter the situation."

"It seems so..."

I knew what I was saying since Iris would have known me even without my connection with Alexander, as she would thoroughly check on every special individual she had heard of. Nevertheless, it was pointless to think about it when I was already engaged to her.

"By the way," Iris uttered. "I wonder whose among you and your sister is going to get married first? Do you have something like an arrangement about it?"

"Well, about that," I replied. "It has been decided that Sister will be the one to get married first and then me. Right, Sister?"

"Yeah, but it really doesn't matter to me whoever takes the matrimony first as long as I get married to the ones I love."

As Big Sis said those words, she turned her head left and right and glanced at her fiancees. With their cheeks slightly reddened, Christine and Mary seemed excited and embarrassed about it at the same time when they heard it.

"One more thing," I continued. "My sister will be the one to have children first in order to avoid any future conflicts in the queendom's internal affairs, if you know what I mean."

"I somehow get you, Raphael. Since your sister is the future queen, the position of her line must need to be secured. If Raphael were to have children first, they would probably use that logic to seize the throne for the Lavender branch of the Raevender family. That's it if they were to believe that Raphael deserves the throne as the majority of the nations are patriarchal."

While holding her chin, Iris shared her thoughts with us, which were actually correct. I was impressed by how fast she picked that up. Just as she explained, my future children might fight for the right to the throne. For that reason, even the order of when our own children would be born was planned.

"It looks like the brides have returned.

"Alright, let's remind the guests so that we can welcome them," I said before we stood up.

As we were chatting, my sister then quoted that our mothers had already returned to the palace after around an hour of parading around the city. A few minutes later, after Big Sis said that, the three gorgeous brides made their entrance to the central gallery, to which we responded with claps and cheers.

They then went to their seats, which were situated beside the wall in the middle of the gallery. After a short speech, they held a knife together and sliced their multilayered wedding cake, and the party began.
