Chapter 14 – 014 – Objection! # One

014 – Objections! # 1

“The man who will be my husband is Monk Hyde!”

Psyche shouted proudly from the garden.

I thought, I must have come after hearing this story. Of course, most people could not accept this situation and started whispering among themselves.

“Lord Loras fell? What is going on?”

“Much less the skinny doctor Selim, but the wooden monk Hyd.”

If a wolf appeared and there were sheep in panic, would it be exactly like people are now? As people’s eyes turned to me one by one, I was looking at Loras.

Knight Loras seemed to be so insulted that his sunburnt face looked very red.

Swish!

Loras, perhaps unable to bear this situation, fluttered her cloak and walked away.

Shame on you.

Of course, Loras’ difficult journey will only begin now.

It wasn’t just Loras.

I was already feeling better at the thought that I would be able to tie up Priest Manaan and his henchmen and chase them out.

What also made me happiest was the fact that I was able to marry Psyche, whom I had been in love with for quite some time.

That beautiful, proud, yet godly person will be my bride!

To become the wife of the church I will build!

When I was immersed in such emotion, Psyche spoke.

“Then let’s proceed with the wedding right away. “I have contacted Priest Manaan, the person in charge of the Agarpe Territory Church, so he will soon be the notary for our marriage.”

Priest Manaan.

If he found out that I, whom he had ignored so much, would become the son-in-law of a count, he would be so shocked that his eyes would roll over.

Moreover, I would feel very confused because I would have to notarize the marriage.

With that feeling, we waited in the garden for the priest to arrive.

However, as time passed, the only thing that appeared in the garden was a servant who had gone to call the priest.

“Priest Manaan refuses to notarize?”

Psyche raised her eyebrows at the story she heard from her servant. The servant who hurriedly ran to the church added to her words, soothing her tired breath.

“Ha, hoo. She was told that from now on she would begin an all-night practice of silent prayer, fasting, and prayer. Not only the priest Manaan, but also the iron-clad priests Gurban and Ogid!”

People who have been quiet until now suddenly want to say silent prayers and fast?

Because of that, you can’t be the wedding officiant and notary?

What amazing timing.

It was clear to anyone who saw this that it was done on purpose.

In this world, marriages that were not notarized by a priest of higher rank were not officially recognized.

Even if a man and a woman who were flawless and in love with each other came to each other saying they wanted to get married, if the church said, “No,” They would not be able to get married.

How does the church have that much authority?

This was all because the church won the war between the royal family and the church.

From what I heard, the direct reason for the war between the royal family and the church was because a member of the royal family attempted to marry someone who was not recognized by the church, and the fight broke out.

So, the current Kingdom Church had stronger authority than anyone else regarding marriage.

“And I have something to say to you…”

The young servant looked at his surroundings while sweating profusely. While everyone was watching to see what he was going to say, the servant closed his eyes tightly and shouted.

“Oscar Archibald has arrived at the Agarpe Estate!”

Oscar Archibald.

Psyche took a deep breath at that name.

“Lord Archibald has already arrived at the territory?”

As far as I know, the reason why Psyche, the Count’s daughter, got married as quickly as if she had picked up and adopted a stray cat was with the intention of avoiding a man named ‘Oscar Archibald.’

However, since Oscar Archibald came to this estate before the wedding, it was natural that Lady Psyche’s worries deepened in many ways.

As I watched Psyche clicking her tongue, I became lost in many thoughts.

Sunny lunchtime.

A murmur was heard in the garden.

Looking outside the window, I saw a man wearing a purple cloak entering the garden of the Agarpe Mansion without any obstruction.

He was holding a wooden staff like a shepherd herding sheep, his platinum hair was long like a woman’s, and his face was pretty like a girl’s.

“That man is Oscar Archibald.”

I recognized the man.

I’ve encountered him at least once on the battlefield before.

My memory was vague because that was all.

It turned out that he was an amazing master.

Jeopuk.

Oscar stands like the main character in the center of the garden.

He shouted to those around him.

“The news that Lady Psyche was cured was heard even outside the estate! Is that true? If it’s true, it looks like my prayers worked!”

He shouted loudly in a humane voice.

For priests and pastors, having good vocal skills was a plus, and he had a beautiful voice that could captivate people.

Psyche went out into the garden and soon encountered Oscar.

The archbishop’s second son, Oscar, bowed his head like an elegant princess.

“Lady Psyche, it is an honor to see you again in such good health. Even illness could not hide the beauty of the young lady. He is as beautiful as an angel.”

You’re as beautiful as an angel.

It was a very poor compliment.

It’s not that you’re pretty like an angel, but an angel is pretty like Psyche.

When thinking about that, Psyche answered very politely.

“Lord Oscar, thank you for your undeserved compliment. But I heard that your younger sister is the best in the kingdom when it comes to beauty. How is her sister doing?”

While saying that, Psyche gently touched her shoulder. He frowned slightly, and it seemed like he was in pain.

“Honey, let’s not talk about my tomboy sister now. “I want to tell a story about me and the young lady.”

The second son, Oscar’s eyes had thin lines.

I think he must be looking at Psyche’s white and thin neck, 70F breasts, and slim waist.

It seemed like I was trying to be careful with my gaze, but my sharp eyes never miss a single speck of sin.

How dare you look at my wife’s body like that?

I don’t know if it was the archbishop’s son or something, but it felt like a three-out.

This master, who had no idea that I was thinking such things, turned to Psyche, placed his hand on his heart, and spoke like an emotional orator.

“Lady Psyche, it is an amazing coincidence that you got better just before I arrived. No, maybe it’s not a coincidence. “I feel the Creator’s providence now.”

“Providence?”

“Lady Psyche, please marry me.”

Oscar Archibald got down on one knee.
In his hand was a ring with a thick pearl, and it seemed like a very expensive item.

Perhaps because of its appearance, this scene looked very romantic and some of the maids said, “… “It’s cool!” Or “It’s romantic…” He made a groaning sound with the same exclamation.

I really didn’t like this situation.

At the same time, something began to emerge from Archibald’s story, which he said was ‘not a coincidence.’

The reason Priest Manaan refused to notarize the wedding was because of this guy. She was somehow trying to bide her time until this guy came.

This is a very foolish thing to do.

Do you think that can stop the trend?

Of course, it was up to Psyche to do it.

The story will vary depending on what choice she makes here.

At that time, Psyche grabbed Oscar’s hand and helped him up.

“Don’t do that, Lord Oscar. I already have someone who has promised to get married. “The only thing left to do is get married.”

Gugit-.

Oscar’s handsome eyebrows twitched strangely.

Of course, he asked without losing his smile.

“You are such a lucky person that you have promised to marry me. Is that man here now? “I guess that’s not this Midbarian?”

Oscar finally looked at me.

I held out my hand towards the guy and said.

“My name is Monk Hyde. You are Archibald’s second son, Oscar, right? I have also heard a lot about Archbishop Archibald. “You seem like a great priest, just like him.”

Oscar didn’t hold my hand.

I guess it was good.

I also didn’t want to hold hands with men.

Jalang-.

I was looking closely at the silver cross hanging around Oscar’s neck.

Oscar Archibald is probably a silver plate priest.

At least it is said to be at the level of a bishop.

At that time, Psyche smiled brightly and said.

“How about Prince Oscar notarize our marriage now? “It seems like heavenly providence that Prince Oscar came just at the right time when a priest should have been there.”

Entrust the notarization to Oscar?

Psyche was, after all, a smart woman.

Smiling and countering his enemy who just proposed to him. Now I wonder what Oscar will say.

“…”

Oscar was smiling subtly, but she was secretly rolling her eyes as if she were embarrassed. Didn’t she think something like this would happen?
It was that very moment.

“I have an objection! “I have an objection to this marriage!”

Someone shouted loudly.

Everyone turned their heads at the loud noise, and Loras, a knight in silver armor, walked briskly and shouted at the people.

“Lady Psyche is not yet cured of her illness, so it is impossible to make a normal assessment of the situation! So we need to look more closely at this marriage!”

That Loras guy.

Now you’re acting so lamely?

The problem was that it made Oscar’s face brighten.

“You are Lord Loras, the runner-up of the tournament. I was familiar with dance. Rather, Sir Loras, is what you just said true? Lady Psyche’s illness hasn’t healed?”

“That’s right! The proof is in this blasphemous question and answer sheet! Check out the questions and answers to help you identify marriage candidates! Hyde, he is a heretic who says the earth is round!”

The earth is round─.

At those words, the people around me began to hold their breath one by one.

They trembled with fear as if they did not understand the situation.

“How is it that the land is round?”

“Then shouldn’t it fall down?”

In response to the excitement, Loras clenched his fists as if he had won.
Count Dovan, who had remained silent throughout this situation, did not even seem to care as he muttered, “How dare he tell my daughter—.”

Does the count’s knight want to prevent my marriage to Psyche, risking the count’s hatred?

Perhaps, if I mess this up, I might turn to the Knights of the Temple with the Archibald family on my back.

Anyway, knights.

This is why I don’t like knights.

Soon, Oscar spoke while looking at the scroll and the answer sheet he had obtained from somewhere.

“I can’t believe you’re trying to marry a man who told such heretical stories as your groom. Lady Psyche, this is impossible without at least being possessed by a ghost. Lady Psyche must be possessed by a ghost!”

Psyche is possessed by a ghost.

It was a very amazing and interesting story.

A woman who played a false illness is now tormented by a false ghost.

How about Loras? He looked at me with the same expression. I feel very happy because it seems like I was given a chance to change my mind.

The bastard twisted the corner of his mouth in a mean manner, wondering how he had accepted my silence.

“Hyde, you also said at the dinner that the young lady was possessed by a ghost. Knowing that, she tried to get married while the young lady was distracted, right? Or is it you who is causing the ghost?”

You can’t believe they’re casting a spell on a faithful and godly person like me.

Loras, this ignorant bastard has never even heard of not slandering innocent people.

When I was about to say something, Doban shouted.

“How cruel! My daughter Psyche, a member of the count’s family, is a ghost! If you don’t take back what you said right away, no matter how much it is you, Oscar Archibald—.”

Doban’s face was red and red like a volcano about to explode.

I think Doban’s temperament was quite fiery.

If Count Dovan causes trouble in front of Oscar Archibald like this, he might be caught by Archibald.

That was exactly what the Archibalds wanted.

I decided to step forward for my future father-in-law and my wife.

“I have an objection too! I am not a demoniac, and Lady Psyche is not possessed by a demon! Therefore, we demand a public trial! Please gather as many people as possible!”

Public trial.

It was a matter of gathering a lot of people and talking about who did well and who did not. Oscar said, “Hmm.” As if he didn’t like my opinion. I fell silent.

I added a word to lure him out.

“I request that Father Manaan, the priest in charge of the Agarpe Church, attend as a witness to prove the innocence of me and Lady Psyche! Even though the Manaan priest is currently fasting and saying aphoristic prayers, Oscar, will you not listen to your request?”

Manaan Priest.

Oscar smiled brightly at that name.

“Priest Manaan is a trusted disciple of my father, Archbishop Archibald! He would be perfect as a witness because he would give a fair evaluation in many ways! Great! “I ask him to testify!”

“Yes, a ‘conscientious man’ would never lie and only tell the truth.”
