6.

The wedding hall was thrown into chaos.

“Kyaaah!”

“Good Lord, w-what is…”

In the sunsetting horizon, there was a fissure.

The red sky shattered like a glass window. Blood dripped through the cracks. I reinforced my eyesight with aura and looked up at the sky.

[The apostle of 'The Ox that Harvests Ruins' has manifested.]

There was a girl with a huge hammer.

[The apostle of 'The Warhorse of the Eternal Plains' has manifested.]

There was also a general on a pegasus that was flapping its wings.

[The apostle of 'The Evangelist of Everlasting Happiness' has manifested.]

Young children danced strangely, holding hands.

“W-what…”

The wedding guests looked at everything in shock. The cracking red sky alone was an unbelievable sight, and with the unidentified beings coming out of the cracks, they couldn't pull themselves together.

Except for three people.

“They've arrived.”

Raviel, the Heretic Questioner, and I were ready to fight back. Among us, Raviel was the one who had the power to command others.

“Special ops, assemble and protect the guests! Imperial Spirit Troop, gather the civilians! My vassals, evacuate the guests!”

My bride and duchess of the empire, Raviel, yelled at the bewildered guests—specifically, her vassals. People's shoulders flinched.

She was rallying the troops.

Strangely, when Raviel called them out, they magically came out of their daze. There was no better person than the head of the second noblest family in the empire to use that “magic.”

“Blue Lion Knights, form your ranks!”

“Your Excellency, just what are those—”

“Save your questions. Stay alert and observe the enemies. You are the protectors and leaders of the empire. If you're going to act up in front of me, relinquish your titles! Understood?”

“U-understood!”

Raviel organized the hall in an instant. Even the soldiers and nobles who were not under her command obeyed her orders.

They felt something, instinctively. They didn't understand why the sunset in the sky was shattered nor why some unknown apostles appeared, but they knew if they followed Raviel Ivansia's voice, they could get through this situation.

“Can you figure out their abilities?”

Raviel asked the Heretic Questioner after rattling off a series of instructions.

“Yes! Just a moment!”

The Heretic Questioner made some hand signs. A white light flared from his hands. The light stretched out into the sky like a beam, and in an instant, it passed over the apostles from the other worlds.

“Mm. Analysis complete! First of all, that lady with the giant hammer over there—”

However, the Heretic Questioner couldn't finish his words. Did she interpret the beam as a challenge? The apostle wielding the hammer jumped from the sky.

Her blonde hair fluttered as she slammed the ground with the huge iron hammer.

Booooom!

The ground was literally upturned. Screams echoed.

The wind pressure of the strike alone caused a tornado to form. The red and white flowers that had been imported from the southern part of the empire for the wedding were whisked messily into the air. Amid the hundreds of flowers, blooming and scattered, the apostle's eyes burned red.

-Raviel Ivansia!

Her eyes and voice were somewhat familiar.

-I won't give you a thing!

Shockingly, the apostle looked exactly like the Lady of the Golden Silk.

“L-lady of the Golden Silk…?”

“Why does she look like that?”

The guests chittered suspiciously. The Lady of the Golden Silk was a celebrity, too, even if she wasn't as famous as my husband. It was natural that many people recognized her face. Some of them astoundedly looked back and forth between the apostle and the Heretic Questioner.

“Hmm.”
