#773 The Attendants’ Perspective 3: The Young Lady’s Closure

It’s me, demon noblewoman Nehera.

I can’t believe that the designer behind the Noujou brand actually exists!!!

...Well, of course, someone has to make the clothes.

But to think that designer is engaged to Lord Olba?!

How can this be?!

To win Lord Olba’s heart, I must have a Noujou dress. But how can I commission one from my love rival?!

This is a stalemate, isn’t it...?!

Hmph! I won’t give up that easily!

I’ll watch the two of them closely and find an opening!!!

*** 

And so, I managed to sneak into their wedding!

I, who have no direct relation to Lord Olba or that commoner, the Noujou designer, used my high-profile connections to stealthily sneak my way in. A success!

Power, it turns out, is very useful!

Yes, power! Power solves everything!

Then again, even with all my power, I couldn’t marry Lord Olba, which is why I’m here...

This venue is bigger than I thought.

So many people.

Was the Demon King’s wedding a few years ago this grand?

...Wait, isn’t that the Demon King?!

His Majesty is attending, too?!

Sure, Lord Olba is noble and elite, but he can’t just invite the Demon King to his wedding like that, can he?

...So, how?!

Is it because of the reputation of the mere commoner designer?!

Even the Mermaid King is here?!

And who’s that human sandwiched between the Demon King and Mermaid King?

He must be some high-ranking noble if he can chat so casually with two kings!

I must get closer to him!

...Oh no, the bride and groom are about to enter.

My chance is slipping away...!

If so... there’s only one thing left for me to do...!

“Here come the bride and groom.”

Oh my goooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooosh!!!

A wedding dress designed by Noujou’s designer!!!

AND it’s the ultimate wedding dress she designed for herselfffffff!!!

It’s stunningggggggg!

So gorgeoussssssssssss!

Adorableeeeeeeeeeeeee!

Pure whiteeeeeeeeeeeeee!

That’s right! The only thing left for me to do now is marvel at the Noujou wedding dress!

Every girl dreams of wearing a wedding dress!

One day, I’ll wear one too, and stand on the stage of the most important day of my lifeeeeeee!!!

Let me indulge in my fantasies!

I’m sure many other girls here are thinking the same!!!

“Oh my...!”

“Absolutely breathtaking...!!!”

“Precious...!!!”

“So dreamy...!!!”

See, I knew it!

Ahh, coming here just to see that beautiful dress was worth it.

...All right.

Time to leave.

I achieved my goal. Now I need to find my next romance!

One day, I’ll wear a Noujou dress too!

I must pre-order it now, or it will take years to be made!!!

As the young ladies, including me, rushed towards the exit, a shocking fact was revealed!

Whaaaaaaat?!

A joint weddingggggg?!

Apart from Lord Olba and the designer, there are other couples getting married today?!

Does that mean we’ll get to see more stunning Noujou dresses?!

Oh my word!

Of course, I’ll stay to watch!

If I don’t, I’ll regret it forever!

Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!

This dress! That dress! They’re all so wonderfuuuuuuul!!!

Sure, some brides are a bit older, but the dresses make up for that!!!

The brilliance of the last bride that appeared was something else!!!

Huh? A dragon bride?

I don’t quite get it, but if she’s a dragon, her beauty makes sense!!!

All four brides, each more wonderful than the last!

Although they wore wedding dresses, each one was unique, and yet it perfectly complemented the bride’s personality.

Without a doubt, these must be tailor-made to fit each bride!

You can see the brand’s dedication!

When I get married, I’m going to order from Noujou too and get a dress tailored just for me. It’ll be super stylish and perfect for my body and unique personality!

Oh, how wonderful!!!

I might just faint thinking about it!

I want to get married as soon as possible!

The only problem is, I don’t have a partner!!!

***

...After the ceremony ended, we transitioned to the reception, and I lingered around.

Because the food at the reception... was to die for!

What IS this cuisine?!

Most of these dishes are nothing like I’ve ever seen or tasted before!

Delicacies?!

Is this what they call delicacies?!

Tender meat drenched in a sweet and spicy sauce!!!

Luxurious fish cooked to perfection!

For some reason, fruit topped with prosciutto!!!

And, oh my goodness, the dessertsssssssssss!!!

There are so many types, and they’re all to die for!

I can’t stop munching!!!

Mmh...! I wish I could go home right now and start planning my own wedding...

But my legs... they refuse to move away from here!

The dazzling bridal wear!

The sumptuous feast!

The reception hall itself looks as opulent and beautifully adorned as the Demon King’s castle!!!

Having a wedding in such a magnificent place... Wearing such beautiful dresses... Celebrating with such delectable dishes...

I feel defeated...!

Even if I get married someday, I can’t imagine having such a dreamy wedding!!!

Such an exquisite ceremony...!

Not even a king could pull this off!

Defeated...!

Utterly defeated...!!!

How can the wedding of a mere commoner girl surpass that of a noble like me...?!

No... I realized it halfway through...!

When I learned she was the designer of the ultimate fashion brand, Noujou, I admired her more than I ever looked down on her.

Every girl dreams of a beautiful dress.

The creators of these dreams—the fashion designers—are every girl’s hero and heroine.

If she couldn’t dream big herself, how could she create dreams for other girls?

Today’s wedding was a testament to the size of the dream she holds.

I’m content just being able to glimpse her dream.

Time for this noble lady to make a graceful exit.

But, as I took a step, I tripped!

Ahh!

Tripping in such a public place is so unladylike!!!

Just as I thought I’d hit the ground, someone caught me!

I feel... strong arms?

Ah, it’s a man.

He saved me from falling!

“Are you okay, ma’am?”

“Oh, yes, thank you so much...!”

My, he’s quite a handsome fellow up close!

That’s right, this joint wedding has invited renowned figures from both merfolk and the demon race.

This is a prime opportunity to meet someone!

Forget about leaving!

I’m going to find my future husband here!

Noujou’s designer really does give us all dreams to chase after!!!
