As soon as I entered the ballroom, what I saw was somewhat as I had expected.

Most men wear masks that symbolize wildness, such as lions or wolves, and most women wear masks that symbolize femininity, such as rabbits or cats.

Even though there were occasional variations, most of them were cute and familiar animals to humans, like dogs or sheep. The percentage of people who appeared wearing masks that stood out as much as mine was probably around 4-5% at most.

And the person wearing a unique mask that is different from other people’s is likely to be a major character from the original work. For example, the person walking around wearing a cow mask is probably Agnes.

‘The longing for the heart is still great.’

I don’t know if it was intentional, but the cow mask had the side effect of making women’s breasts look bigger when worn. When I saw her standing there in the corner of the ballroom, I couldn’t help but laugh.

The green canary that has been focusing on the party food for a while now, not even talking, is probably Silena, and the monkey that is running around actively and talking here and there is probably Seraphine.

Even if it’s an event with no information, the original is 24.9 times… Oh, no. I defeated the Demon King a few years ago, so I’ve actually cleared it 25 times, so there’s no way I wouldn’t be able to tell the kids apart if I wear a mask.

‘I don’t know where Dan went in the meantime.’

If it’s Ethan’s personality, he’s probably walking around wearing an eagle mask, which is the symbol of his family.

Of course, since the eagle mask is also popular among men, it will be a bit difficult to find. In that case, you will have to have several conversations with men who are presumed to be Ethan to narrow it down.

As I was looking around with that thought in my mind, a sheep with pink fur came scurrying towards me.

‘… Seristane.’

Even though she’s wearing a mask, it doesn’t look like she’s wearing one at all. People around her would probably be able to tell that she’s a saint just by looking at her attitude.

At first, I was looking somewhere else, wondering if she was walking in the other direction, but then she suddenly came up to me and whispered cautiously in my ear.

“Ah, hello, Lee, Sister Release… .”

“Yes. How have you been, Saint Cerista?”

“Uh, how did you get my name… .”

… Did you really think that you wouldn’t get caught if you confessed everything with your actions and words?

And rather, it was a question I wanted to ask. I have seen a lot of Seristas in the original work, so I can tell them apart at a glance, but in this world, she and I don’t have much contact.

“She somehow resembled the saintess Serista. Her fur was pink, and she gave off a harmless vibe.”

“Oh, I see… .”

“How did Saint Cerista know that I was Lilith?”

“I feel divine power… .From Sister Release… .”

“Yes?”

“Well, Sister, you were a saint in the past… .I feel a divine power unique to the goddess, different from that of other priests… .Hee, it’s faint, though… .”

… This is the first time I’ve heard this information.

It was unexpected information that the divine power remained as an aftertaste from her days as a saint. In the original work, there was usually no opportunity to know about it.

Usually, when Lilith awakens as a saint, Serista often does not, and vice versa. Even in cases where both awaken, there are few opportunities to talk about this.

I haven’t heard anything specific from the priests of Mirif or Blackwood, so it’s likely something that only the saints can understand. I don’t know much about it since I’ve already lost most of my divine powers.

‘Oh, now that I think about it, there was something I wanted to ask.’

That’s a good thing. I was already wondering why this wedding was between the princess and the warrior and not the names of Serista and Silena.

“Ah, Saint Cerista. I have a question, is that okay?”

“Yes, yes… . W,what is your question…?”

“This wedding. Why aren’t Saint Serista and Miss Silena getting married together? As far as I know, I think the warrior said he would take responsibility for all three of them. ”

“Ah, I, I’m planning to have my sister Silena and I’m going to have separate weddings… . A, wedding is a meaningful event that will remain as a memory for the two of us, so, we all agreed that we’d like to have it just with the warrior and me… .”

… It was a more boring reason than I thought. But I guess I should say it was a good thing.

It’s fortunate that he’s not an irresponsible guy who suddenly abandons two heroines in the middle of a story. Rather, hearing these words made me even more certain that he’s seriously considering a future with the three of them.

“I, I will be getting married in two months in the sacred city of Mireya, and Miss Silena will be getting married in the forest of the World Tree next spring… .”

“I see. Thank you for letting me know, Lady Serista.”

“Oh, no… .That’s why I came too… .”

With those words, Serista carefully took out a letter from her bosom and handed it to me.

Judging from the conversation just now, it’s probably the warrior and her wedding invitation.

“Are you inviting me, Lady Serista?”

“Yes, yes… . In fact, it was thanks to Sister Lilith’s help that I was able to be by your side, if you think about it… . If Sister Lilith hadn’t kept my secret, or had not put trust in me, I wouldn’t be able to be by your side right now… .”

“It’s because the whole Serista Saint loves the warrior so much that it became like that.”

“Ah, anyway, I’m always grateful to Sister Release, so I hope you’ll attend my wedding and the warrior’s wedding to congratulate us… .”

“Of course I will gratefully accept the invitation from the Virgin. I will also tell my husband.”

“Yes, yes… . Ba, thank you for accepting… .”

After handing over the invitation, Serista seemed to have finished saying everything she wanted to say and backed away, hiding in the crowd.

Perhaps she is trying to hand out invitations while looking for people like that. I don’t know how many she will be able to find with her keen eye.

‘By the way, it means that you detected the remaining small amount of divine power in me….’

Perhaps it meant that she also had divine powers, but as someone who knew the true meaning of those words, I found it a little absurd.

It meant that even though four years had passed since the subjugation of the Demon King, he still had not crossed the line and was only turning a blind eye.

‘How far do you plan to go in maintaining premarital chastity?’

I don’t know if it’s really premarital chastity to just do it from the back.

At least in our industry, we don’t treat women like virgins. It doesn’t really matter as long as we only consider marriage partners.

As I was thinking about sending Serista away and getting up to move, this time a man wearing a pig mask slowly approached me.

‘Is it Ethan?’

It’s not impossible. In fact, in the original work, the title used to refer to Edan was ‘Pig Prince Edan’.

It is not unlikely that he wore the pig mask to reflect on his shameful past. In some sense, it could be used as a symbol that only he and I can recognize.

‘Wait a minute, but if I do this, won’t I be the one to get caught first?’

… Well, we didn’t talk about the conditions of who found it first. I guess we can just brazenly try to hide it.

“Release.”

“Yes. Are you enjoying the party, Ethan?”

“… What are you talking about? It’s me, warrior.”

“… … .”

… Ah, shit. I should have just stayed still.

Why is this guy wearing a pig mask, which doesn’t seem appropriate for the main character of the party? It’s confusing.

“I thought it was Edan because it was a pig mask. Don’t confuse me.”

“I thought it would stand out too much if I made it a cool animal. I even made a bet with Seraphine to see who could find it first.”

“Oh, you guys do that too? People all think the same.”

“What, you were doing that too? You’re still good at magic. So you were using something like an alpaca?”

If you’re a warrior, you probably already know that the golden monkey is Seraphine.

If you go to a ball with a guy whose personal information is completely revealed just by opening the status window, then it’s meaningless.

“Congratulations on your wedding. You’ll have to do it twice more.”

“What, you already knew that?”

“Akaserista gave me an invitation, here.”

“I came to tell you that too, but I’m a step late.”

It’s been years since I’ve had a conversation with a brave guy like this.

Although the time I spent with Ethan was long, he was still the only friend I could talk to freely.

Anyway, since Geumgyeomjo Segi and I share memories of our hometown, we didn’t know each other at the time, but we were often friends at the Lua Gallery.

… Oh right. I had something to tell you anyway.

“Hey, you can make kimchi with this recipe.”

“Yes, I have some. Can you send me a few?”

“… If possible, could you send it regularly? If possible, in an unnoticeable way. I think it would be good if you could send me a few bundles a year through Lizzy. ”

“Well, I do miss Korean food sometimes. But I don’t really care because I cook it myself when I feel like it.”

“I will do it, I won’t do it, man.”

“Okay, I’ll send it to you. It’s not that hard.”

…okay.

First of all, this has accomplished 80% of the reason I attended the wedding.
