Arriving at the wedding day, Alissa was ready with all the attributes of her wedding dress. She was in the dressing room of a temple. Horse carriage lines were lined up in the courtyard. The temple has been decorated with silver and gold decorations. The face has been given make up, the hair has been styled upwards. The bridal veil has been fitted. Everything is ready. What was not just Alissa's heart.
Right now, he was like he was betting. If Rion is Dion, then he must find out why Dion remembers nothing. The faces of Alissa and Masya are not so different, because indeed when making the character Alissa, Masya poured his own face image in the form of writing. After all, the one who called Dion Mas was only himself. If Dion does not know him, it means that something happened in the past that shackles his memory.
However, if Rion is not Dion then Alissa aka Masya is married again. He didn't want that to happen. Alissa wanted that in her life, repeated to any number of times, to remain the wife of one Dion, not another.
Do I have to trust a hundred percent on the mission box yesterday? Is it true, after marrying me, Rion will be happy? ask Alissa in your heart.
In the novel, Rion is jealous of Lucius, feeling that Alissa has betrayed him. During this time his life was often disappointed by others. Rion felt slighted, had been cheated like that. He killed Alissa as proof.
Right or wrong, the existence of the mission box itself is already a miracle. Whoever Rion's true identity is, the reward is that Alissa remains back to her original world.
Do I really have to sacrifice my loyalty to Mas Dion, just to meet him again on earth?
Suddenly, a sound of window glass was knocked from outside. At the same time, Dea tells Alissa that the wedding will start in half an hour.
"You and all the servants, come out first. I'll be there any minute" said Alissa. The servants followed him.
Alissa hurried off to the window and peeked. A person in armor was standing on the outside, turning his back on Alissa. It was the clothes of Rion's army. Alissa scrunched her forehead. "Did Rion send me a bodyguard? Why knock from the window?"
Before long, the figure turned around and took off his helmet. A special silver-haired man. The man who had put his heart on Alissa. Lucius knocked on the window once more. The girl opened her cellot.
"Lucius! Long time no see!" exciting Alissa. Since Lucius joined Rion's army, neither Alissa nor Cass could meet him again. His posture is getting straighter and higher, with a firm field and jawbone.
Lucius shook his head weakly. "Two days ago we met .. in your house."
"In my house ...? Ah, you were there when Rion---"
"Why, Alissa? Why don't you tell me you're a member of the Valcke family!" There was a tinge of anger and sadness mixed in Lucius' question.
"Did you forget, you hate King Eric and all his followers? Valcke's family is famous as followers of King Eric, although in fact it is not. You won't accept my help to make you stronger" Alissa said.
"Then, when will my power be of use to you? You said, in a dream I could protect you!"
Alissa could not answer. Actually, he prepared Lucius for today, or at least when Rion was about to kill him. Alissa plans to overthrow the throne of Rion when in case his life is threatened. However, after learning of the mission given to her to return to the home world, Alissa could not possibly do that.
"Let's get out of here!"
"Huh?"
Lucius' impulsive proposal clearly shocked Alissa. "But soon the reception will be held!"
"We ran away together! We're going to another kingdom!"
"Lucius, I-I-"
"You don't want to marry King Rion, do you? Relax, I'll protect you, I'll make you happy!"
Alissa fell silent as Lucius held tightly to her hand. The girl took a breath for a moment and exhaled slowly. Lucius looked at him deeply.
"Lucius ... We're friends, right?" alissa asked in a very careful tone.
Once again, Alissa asked, "We ... will forever be best friends, right?"
Lucius stunned. Alissa emphasized her sentence on the word friend.
"Friend ...?"
Alissa nodded. He grasped both of Lucius's hands tightly, then looked at him gently.
"Are you going to support me, in my marriage to Rion, in joy or sorrow?"
"I-i ... ."
Suddenly, the sound of the door being knocked. Dea's voice sounded from across. "Miss, it's time for the show to start!"
"Yes, I'm coming!"
Alissa patted Lucius' head, which was now lower because the floor of his room was higher than the ground Lucius had stepped on outside. Alissa rubbed Lucius' head, just like back then.
"You are the best friend. I go first, yeah ... ."
Alissa's words were only faintly heard in Lucius' ears. The girl turned around while running small, dragging her white dress out of the room. Lucius' vision was also blurry, as it was wet with tears.
His love was rejected before he could even say it.
***
Behind the bedroom door, Alissa herself shed tears. The girl could not bear to linger with Lucius. Alissa never loved Lucius more than a friend. Lucius is the kind of person who makes it easy to fall in love, if people want to recognize him more deeply. Alissa could have learned to love him, if only the plot of the novel had to keep happening like in a book.
But now he has a mission to carry out. Now, Dion's husband is in plain sight.
Alissa wiped away the tears that had dripped down her cheeks. With a steady heart, Alissa went to the hall room where the wedding took place.
***
The wedding procession is about to begin. Rion had been standing in front of the priest, waiting for Alissa. For the first time, Rion was officially dressed in royal clothes without any frills of enemy blood or clinging animals. All the attributes and badges he had worn on the white coat. The man looked repeatedly at the main door, making sure that the bride had come or not. The row of seats was filled with invited guests, including the loyal soldiers in the rear row.
Strange, where's Lucius? ask Rion in heart. His loyal knights did not cross that afternoon. Among the other soldiers, Lucius was the strongest and could always rely on Rion in every action. Rion was quite surprised when his right hand was not in this formal event. Although this marriage was only as a symbol for a king to Rion, but Lucius was supposed to still come.
Before long, the main door opened. Two people emerged from behind it. Theo wore a black suit, holding his sister, Alissa who wore an all-white dress and veil. Theo escorts his younger sister down the red carpet, to where Rion is.
As soon as he arrived next to her, Rion stole a glance at her bride. His eyeballs displayed a tinge of red, like he had just cried. There was a deep resentment in Rion's heart when he saw that, for some reason. In fact, Rion himself forced this marriage, he should know that his bride would not be willing to live it. Rion does not usually care about what people hate about him.
Akna but, every time Rion saw Alissa exuded sadness, strangely, her heart felt hollow. It was as if his feelings were unwilling to see the girl next to him currently hurt. Her sad face was like Rion had known for a long time.
What's wrong with me? Rion was confused in his heart.
