The Wedding
Dugu Qing tried to gather his energy, but could only mobilize a small amount of magic power, not even enough to support his flight.
Seeing the wolf-like Alde, he could only walk away.
"Hey handsome, don't go! I've fallen for you at first sight!"
Alde gently reached out and embraced Dugu Qing, breathing softly, her eyes filled with spring light.
Dugu Qing struggled with all his might, but he couldn't even push Alde away. He pursed his lips helplessly, and could only hope that Frieren, Fern, and Stark would discover the Demons soon and come to save him!
"Hey sir, what's your name?"
The young man was stunningly beautiful, as radiant as a star, and every part of him exuded charm. Alde was eager to know everything about Dugu Qing.
During his last conversation with Solitair, Dugu Qing remained silent, only to have his shoulder slashed by her sword.
Dugu Qing still needs to recover, so he has no choice but to feign compliance and delay the inevitable.
"Dugu Qing!"
"What a beautiful name! My name is Alde, and I'm the future queen of the Demons, young man."
Alde leaned down, her slender, jade-like fingers slowly tracing the boy's delicate, flawless cheek.
A warm breath wafted over her, Dugu Qing's face flushed slightly.
"We just met, is it inappropriate to stand so close? Let go of me."
Alde shook her head slightly, her face flushed, as if she were drunk.
"No, I like you, I really like you, my love, let's get married! Let's have the wedding tonight."
Dugu Qing didn't expect Alde to be so direct, and struggled forcefully.
"We've only just met, and you're already getting married? That's way too fast!"
Ignoring Dugu Qing's protests, Alde embraced him, jumped off the cliff, swept through the forest, and landed on the red carpet.
Long live the Grand Marshal!
The robots all knelt down, their posture humble.
The spaceship hatch slowly opened, and Generals Maximus and Megatron, under Alde's command, moved their massive, towering figures with their thick steel legs, bowing their heads respectfully.
"Marshal, who is this elf?"
Alde patted Dugu Qing on the shoulder, looking dashing and full of heroic spirit.
"This is my future king consort, and also your master. Quickly, come and pay your respects to the future king of the Demons."
The robots were all low-level intelligent beings created by Alde using Steel Magic. They obeyed her every word and immediately knelt down upon hearing her words, respectfully chanting slogans.
Dugu Qing saw that the robots created by Alde were hard in appearance and tall in stature, especially Megatron and the Maximus, which were as majestic as mountains. Moreover, they truly possessed intelligence and silently wiped away the sweat for humanity.
Who knows who will face Alde's overwhelming steel torrent in the future...
"Also, spread the word that tonight I'm having a grand wedding with Dugu Qing. All the high-ranking members of the Iron Legion must perform a talent show, understand? Get ready!"
Alde issued the order with unwavering conviction and absolute authority, leaving no room for argument.
"Yes, sir."
The Colossus and Megatron exchanged a glance, then, with their massive steel bodies erect, turned and left.
Alde held Dugu Qing in her arms, sniffed her lightly, and entered the spaceship with a look of infatuation.
The spaceship's interior was spacious and filled with cube-shaped steel.
Dugu Qing breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, the cannons, satellites, monitors, and radar he had imagined did not appear.
Otherwise, he would really suspect that the apocalyptic crisis was triggered by Alde.
Alde went into the wardrobe room, opened all the wardrobes, and began selecting her wedding attire.
Seeing that most of the clothes in Dugu Qing's wardrobe were military uniforms, he took the opportunity to seduce Alde.
"Look, we haven't even prepared a wedding dress yet, why don't we wait a few more days?"
Alde was burning with anxiety and couldn't wait a moment longer. She clenched her fist tightly, determined to win.
"No, I won't wait a second longer! You humans wear wedding dresses, right? Alright, there's a small town just ahead. Let's conquer it and hold the wedding there!"
With a single command, she gave orders to all directions.
The robots under the command of the Iron Legion abandoned their tasks and gathered from all sides, forming ten square formations, and marched in a mighty force towards the town ahead.
In the small town, the cavalry guards stationed there saw thousands of steel-clad soldiers, dressed in uniform, marching in dense formation from afar. Terrified, they immediately retreated.
The Iron Legion effortlessly drove away the town's knights and occupied the town.
The townspeople stared in fear at the suddenly appearing robot.
The robots did not harm humans, but faithfully carried out Alde's orders, collecting various wedding supplies.
The priests from the church, the chefs from the hotel, and the maids from the nobleman's house were all requisitioned to prepare for the wedding that evening.
Upon receiving news that the town had been successfully occupied, Alde laughed heartily and used her magic to propel her spaceship toward the town.
"Frieren, Fern, come save me!"
The spaceship descended from the sky and landed on the ground.
Dugu Qing looked out the window at the town that had been taken over by the Iron Legion, her exquisitely beautiful face filled with sorrow.
A group of robots walked up to Dugu Qing, placed their fists over their hearts, and bowed in respect.
"My lord, this is your wedding attire."
Dugu Qing looked up and saw that the Iron Legion had brought out all of William VIII's royal robes from the theater troupe and placed them on the clothes rack, which made her both amused and exasperated.
"This is utterly awful." Alde walked out of the spaceship, carrying a snow-white wedding dress, her phoenix eyes filled with anger. "I, Alde, am destined to rule the world as the Demon Queen! To have my wedding dress stolen from a merchant is a disgrace!"
Dugu Qing activated his magic to detect the magic emanating from Alde, which appeared to be over a hundred years old. He figured Frieren Fern could easily handle it, and his mood immediately relaxed. He looked at Alde with a teasing expression.
"How about we postpone it?"
Alde firmly refused, "Forget it, we can just hold a bigger ceremony for the tenth anniversary."
Dugu Qing walked to the clothes rack, picked and chose, and selected a brand new white bodysuit. She put it on and felt that it was alright.
However, the thought of marrying a woman he had just met filled Dugu Qing with disgust.
As dusk settled over the land, the grand wedding ceremony began promptly at seven o'clock in the evening.
The square in the center of the town is full of blooming flowers, filling the air with their fragrance.
With a wave of its massive hand, the robot ignited the fireworks.
Fireworks rose and fell in succession, their dazzling colors painting the sky crimson.
Megatron personally loaded the cannons, and 108 real war behemoths roared towards the sky, raising huge plumes of dust.
The symphony orchestra, dressed in clean and tidy formal attire, meticulously played romantic and soothing music.
To the accompaniment of rhythmic music, Alde wears a dazzling rose crown, sparkling metal cross earrings, and an exquisite diamond necklace.
Wearing a pure white wedding dress, with flowing red hair and a seven-meter-long lace train, she walked gracefully down the red carpet.
