1244 Disturbance?

pαndα`noνɐ1--сoМ

~Bang. Bang. Bang. Bang!

The drums banged, and the music was at its loudest as the bride's entourage finally entered the Palace majestically.

The event was taking place outdoors, with a massive wedding stage at the forefront.

Yes! The stage was decorated with ancient artifacts and red fabric pieces everywhere.

The lanterns, candles, and everything were well-positioned.

And just below the low-levelled stage were several low-floor seats and tables around for the esteemed guests as well.

Of course, not far from them, one could see the Camera crew already positioned in various positions, ready to take the best shots they could.

As for the rest of Baymard, it was impossible for them to all watch the show here

And that's why several activities had been arranged all around Baymard to celebrate tonight's festivity.

Today, the festivities would be done in traditional ways.

Why? Because tomorrow, the Church wedding would begin at 12 noon. And following that, there would be more games, cents and celebrations to hold.

So the games and activities today were strictly ones that were more in line with several ancestral cultures.

And that's why today, one could see one wearing ancient celebratory clothing instead.

.

Landon, who was somewhat hidden away from the commotion in plain sight, couldn't help raising his lips in glee.

Yes. He and his groomsmen were watching the broader entourage step in from behind a curtain.

As per old Baymardian tradition, he was now waiting for the bride to first come to and reveal herself before he followed in.

Thus, they sat comfortably while waiting for the ladies to arrive.

That's right. The girls were all with Lucy, so what more could they say?

~Pah!

Santa smacked Landon's back hard: "Bro, I can't believe that you're finally getting married. Hahahahaha! Finally, you'll be just like me! Hehehe! Now, you'll know the joy of being kicked out of your bed at night! Or... You'll finally understand the joy of trying to escape but getting caught."

(-_-)

Everyone's lips just twitched while imagining how much work Penelope had to put up with when dealing with this guy.

It was almost as if he liked getting caught by her.

Sigh... Their sister-in-law sure was strong.

Everyone had a Buddha-face while looking at Santa, who didn't seem to realize how ridiculous he was.

He puffed his chest out and rubbed his nose proudly: "Bro! I can't believe that soon, your wife will start kicking you out!"

[Everyone]: 'No... That's only in your case.'

"And bro. Don't forget; you're just like me. Look! We both have curious minds, so it won't be long before you start cooking, experimenting and blowing things up in your home... Bro, I'm just happy that you're finally getting married to sister-in-law after all these years!"

"Agreed. I have to say that it's been long overdue," William added while reminiscing about his childhood days when he first met Lucy and Landon.

Bruh... Even a blind person could've been able to tell that they would end up together. And since then, it's been like what? 8 or possibly 10 years?

Lucy sure was patient, seeing that women looked forward to marriage after their coming of age at 15.

Such a long wait time can make any woman feel anxious.

What? Did he want her to become the Lord Of the Rings or something?

Well, Lord of the Rings was a nickname in Baymard for girls with engagement rings or marriage promises that lasted too long.

Such a title, who would want it?

Everyone nodded their heads, feeling that Lucy was indeed one hell of a patient woman.

Sure. Landon might mean well by pushing the wedding for now.

But no matter how things changed, by 15, women still looked forward to marriage.

And Lucy was now 19. So Imagine how long she had been anxious about her future with their bro?

.

Everyone felt a little pity for Lucy, while in turn giving Landon a very stinky eye.

And for this, Landon was blade speechless, not knowing whether to laugh or to cry.

Hello! He was still a person from the 21st-century earth.

So no matter how normal it was for people at the time, being with a 15-year old girl was a crime to him, alright?

And that's why he chose to get married now when she was 19!

18 was of course not a problem too. But he still decided to push it for 19.

However, in this world, 19 itself was pretty old for one to call themselves a young lady again.

But this was indeed somewhat understandable for them

Looking at things from another perspective, even though no one on earth truly voices their opinions, many have taken the age of 30 as a woman's age of when she would start turning undesirable.

So women around or above that age start feeling anxious about their marriages too.

That said, 15 years old in this era started making ladies feel the need to start a home fast, as well.

It would take maybe 500 or more years for people to change the way they look at 15-year-olds.

The change couldn't happen all at once.

Nope.

Centuries and centuries ago, 11 or 12 years old was the adult age.

And now, depending on what part of the world one was, it would be 14 or 15.

So for them to change that number to maybe 18 or 19, it would take more centuries and centuries to come.

So forget it. For a long time, 14 and 15 years of age would still be seen as the adult age.

Women would still want to build their homes and have children at that age, no matter how good technology got.

Heck! Some would prefer to start it now and live their lives in enjoyment, knowing that they have their children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren instead.

Hey. There was just nothing Landon could do in this regard.

He couldn't change their minds, but that didn't mean that he, an adult in his past life who should know better, wouldn't be comfortable being with an underage girl.

.

Landon looked at his group of sworn brothers and felt tongue-tied.

Sigh... Forget it.

He could only keep giving the excuse that he was too busy earlier on to get married.

Yup! That was his excuse, and he was sticking to it!

What the hell? Did he look like a pedophile or something?

Like so, Santa, William, Sirius, Henry, Astar, Gary, Josh, Mark and Trey all Merrily teased their sword brother while waiting for the Bride's entourage to approach.

But suddenly, one of the guards quickly barged into their hidden area with an urgent message at hand.

Eh? What was going on?
