Barely a moment after Nathan slayed the beast, chaos ensued in the hall.
The wedding ceremony became a drastic mess. The disorder before my eyes made me excited. Now that the fly-like beast, the Diptera, had been slain, everyone unfroze and snapped out of its enchantment.
Nobles who had previously been unable to escape dashed out of the hall in a frenzy. I watched the unfrozen Ronald fall unto the ground right in front of the priest's feet.
The priest and Ronald both looked at each other in shock, realizing the dangerous situation.
Amidst all this chaos, the man with purple hair stood calmly before me, his silver eyes beholding my visage.
Seeing Nathan right in front of me made me hold my breath for a moment. It felt amazing knowing that the young boy who I had raised had finally grown enough to protect me. All my life, I was used to fending for myself, but now it wasn't so.
Thinking about this made a smile bloom on my face. Once again, I had made the right choice.
