Sophia Demiurge

Chapter 132: Wedding Preparations

Author: I don't know anything about weddings, please forgive me if there are any mistakes.

________

Well, I would be lying if I told you that I am not tired of all of the things that I crammed into my schedule before I get to prepare for the big day, even the fun of seeing the faces of people who were being wrongly accused at the expense of their own life was diminished when I am watching how did my framing up play out. Still, I can't complain about it because I am a leader, and I am dutybound to be busy, and I mean I am in the good hands of my resident "stress reliever" Bakunawa, so yeah, no worries.

In any case, after I was done with all the things that should be done, I started the preparations for my wedding. The first problem I got is that my people don't have a lot of florists, first of all, most of the undeads are former military personnel and no one is a double spy because what's the fucking point of having a grey-skinned spy in white-skinned enemy ranks, right? So no one knew of it, I double-checked it in the population registry, and no one listed out flower arrangement and any artistic specialty that can help me in catering, most of my artists are architects and engineers, so I can only ask foreign people to help me, so much for thinking inside the box.

I immediately contacted Auntie Midori and Urduja's main wife, Aoi Dodomeki, the latter immediately sent some orphans from the Urduja orphanage to observe the cathedral where we will be married something that is thankfully present as my people are still worshipers of Siginarugan as well as loads of flowers that are specially used for the wedding such as roses and orchid, so I led them towards the cathedral and assisted in creating the arrangement, after that, they also entered the hall of the palace that I will be using as the wedding reception, these people are not extraordinary ones and are just unfortunate orphans that distracted themselves through artistry and craftmanship, so even though I can go on planning forever, they have to take breaks causing the cathedral planning alone to take the whole day.

After that, they were given luxurious lodgings in the palace itself, whilst I entered the library and met with the prophet (who by the way did not introduce his name to me yet), I saw his giant ass having a stack of blank paged books and writing something on one of those books, I immediately approached him and upon seeing me, he smiled.

"Ah, my lady, I see that the matter with the Dark Jade is successful huh? Congratulations on becoming the Queen of the Undead, officially that is."

I nodded and did not fret about the fact that he knew what I was doing while he was in the library all this while, he is "The Prophet" after all, instead, I looked at the book he was writing and to the history section of the Royal library, it is once as empty as a dessert but now became half-filled.

"You're writing a book about our history?"

The Prophet smiled and then nodded as he finally stopped what he was doing and then sighed.

"So, what do I owe the pleasure of your visit, my lady?"

Hearing that I cannot help but feel like he is just prolonging my stay here, there is no way he will not notice it when I let foreign living beings enter the Queendom, well not like it matters anyway so I just replied.

"Well, the thing is, I am getting married to Bakunawa and Eleanor and I cannot find anyone other than you and Urduja to be the preceding priest and Urduja is my future mother-in-law, so I can't just ask her to be one."

Seeing this, the prophet nodded slowly, and he then replied.

"Of course, it would be my pleasure to preside over the wedding of my queen."

After hearing that, I smiled and then nodded while expressing my gratitude before getting out of the library, after that, I immediately entered the 4th dimension and appeared in my office, in there are several papers with envelopes that has three wedding ring drawings in the back, I immediately used magic to write invitations with the same content, the letters took the whole night to write and the moment the sun rose once again, all of my messengers (manananggals) flew away into different directions to send it to people I wanted to invite and I wanted to piss off namely the King of Gjallarhorn, Stardust, and Tydings, I waited for all the response and the three earliest were as I expected the three great kings, their response was basically "PISS OFF!" according to the messengers.

Of course, they did not dare to hurt my messenger because that would hurt the delicate balance they were maintaining with me, also, I did not need to worry about them taking advantage of my delicate day because their war between Indio and Kamatayan was already being taken advantage of by other countries in different continents economically, if they even got a single thought of mobilizing their army towards me, then that economic exploitation will change into a martial one, and they don't want that.

That's what I call calculated trolling.

After that, I made the whole royal kitchen to tabulate ingredients for the recipes for the reception of the wedding, after all, all of the major visitors of the wedding will be living beings so it is only normal to give them all the foods Kamatayan has to offer, I do not have any particular request other than make a lot of servings of rice sweets like bibingka and all of that, also the cake has to be big too, the meat delicacies will be handled by them, they will be having an audience with the receptionists from Gjallarhorn to discuss how will they arrange the foods.

After I arranged the food, a voice suddenly rang in my head.

"Hey Sophia, I know that you are busy with the wedding preparations, but I would like to report to you that the mass production of the prototype of the rifles you have designed has been finished in the past week, the first batch is currently being under final quality inspection and will be ready for delivery in the frontlines."

Wow such a report when I am preparing for something so big, well I cannot really say that so I just replied to my future wife.

"Ah, yes, please deliver them to the frontlines and tell the warfront commander Arachne that all the archers are to be given these weapons and the bow and arrows to be phased out and repurposed for the production of the prototypes, also please halt the improvement for the prototypes because I will be designing the first actual model of the rifle after the wedding."

Eleanor seemed to nod in acknowledgment though even after saying "Got it" she still was on the "phone", because of that, I could not help but ask.

"Anything else?"

Eleanor took another second to respond as she said.

"Well, I was just wondering if you need any help with preparations."

After hearing that, I smiled.

"Ah, no, don't worry, the preparations are going smoothly, I will call you if I need you, for now after you convey the orders I have given, you can cancel all of your appointments and draw the dress you wanted to wear for the wedding and submit it to the Royal Tailor."

Eleanor seemed to be still reluctant, however, I really was about to finish all the preparations and I just needed to wait for the designers of the cathedral and reception to finish their work, thinking of that, I reassured my future wife.

"Don't worry, I am almost finished and I just have to wait for them to be done, I'm sorry for not giving you or Bakunawa any role in the preparations, but I know that you will overexert yourself by helping me prepare and preparing the mass production of the weapon I have ordered you to do."

After hearing that, Eleanor was once again silent before she sighed.

"Alright, I guess you are right, just don't do yourself too much when you don't want me to."

I gave an affirmative answer and then continued with the preparations, the last preparation was the communication between the three brides regarding what they wanted to wear during the wedding, so Bakunawa and Eleanor went and drew our wedding dress for a week and then passed the agreed upon the theme of the dress and the general design, we then waited for another two weeks before the dress is finished, at that time all the preparations for the internal design of the cathedral was done, it took another week for all the nobles in the Duchy of Urduja to enter the Queendom and settle at the capital.

Finally, after a month of non-stop preparation, the wedding between the 3 queens of Kamatayan will officially start.

[3rd Person POV]

Meanwhile, way before the wedding day, before the orphans of the Urduja Orphanage were sent to Kamatayan. A preparation for Sophia's wedding is also happening in the mansion of the Duchess Urduja by one of the Land Owner's wives, Mira with her chestnut hair tied in a ponytail (Author: The character sheet of Myra in my phone is missing, can you tell me if her hair is as the same color as I mentioned?) was striking a chisel gently against a large slab of marble several times her size and height.

The stone was already carved and was already taking shape, it was that of a woman sitting on a throne whilst wrapping her hands with two women that are sitting on the armrest of the sit of the queen, of course, the marble is yet to take proper form, however, when the other sculptor looked at how quickly did the concubine of their lady learn how to carve such an intricate artwork in just half a year, they cannot help but admire Mira.

_Well, who would have thought that I would have carving talent._

Mira thought to herself as she continued to use her masterful hands to let the figures in the stone come alive. In the world of Pentateuch, the system is not that fair, and while the system will make the progress of people recorded and make them not be discouraged by any normally undetectable feats, the system still favors talent before anything else.

If not, then all people of the same generation as Urduja will be as strong as her or someone like Sophia can never defeat Bakunawa who has worked hard all her life to protect the great forest just because she can use all basic elements, though that is not to say that hard work will not be rewarded, Mira was still quite discouraged when she saw the other spouses of Urduja being so strong while she can barely be called a sword master, so she distracted herself with art.

Upon seeing that she had real talent in art, she began focusing on it more without neglecting her training, after all, it was one of her few bonding sessions with Urduja.

Upon seeing the marble in front of her, Mira smiled faintly.

_With this gift, I will properly ask for Sophia's forgiveness, even though I am sure that I will not be forgiven because of just a marble carving, every person should start somewhere..._

Mira still felt bad for using Urduja as a shield to not be killed by her own daughter and waiting until her daughter's "demons" were already accepted by herself before properly apologizing, but like Urduja said, no matter how much Mira wants to become a better person, she will never become one if she's dead.

As she was thinking of that, a hopeful expression appeared in his eyes.

"I hope Sophia accepts my gift..."

________

The winds of the cold winter swept the whole City of Siginarugan, alongside it were the gentle snowflakes that flowed down the streets as if celebrating the harmonious event that would soon take place in this historic city, in a black cathedral that was adorned with white flowers, several people in dresses chatted at each other as they talked about the lavishness of the design of the cathedral of the undead, in front of the cathedral's altar is a person about 2 and a half meters tall, he is wearing a black and white priest robe whilst besides her is a woman of heavenly proportions donning a pure black filipiniana adorned with baybayin words for "Queendom of Kamatayan" in the sides and her name on the other.

Sophia was smiling widely as she saw a golden-haired woman walk slowly from outside the cathedral inside, the arcs in the middle of the red carpet were adorned with magic, and they slowly hummed a gentle song as if a choir of heavenly talent was celebrating such an important event.

Finally, the wedding of Sophia, Eleanor, and Bakunawa is already in sight.
