《Opening an orphanage in another world》Chapter 393: 6 days until Rean's wedding
Advertisement
[Zerolith point of view]
With Rean keep changing his playing with his red bowtie, alongside Muse with her dark black wedding dress, and just beside them are Mr Jacks and Principal Alice with their more traditional knight like wedding dresses, we are now having a rehearsal one week before the actual big day for them
"Maybe we should add Beastman, Demon, Angel and Dwarf wedding style as well! That will be something great!" [Diana]
"Maybe even vampire and giants?" [Qis]
"We already have elven elements incorporated into it, so why not!" [Muse]
"Did you guys know how though?" [Liyana]
"I am well versed with different demon wedding style, but I'm not sure about the others" [Lily]
"Mr Seraph. Something wrong?" [Kadeus]
"Could it be?" [Ray]
"Well, if you like, I can use all my knowledge and traveling experiences to integrate them rather nicely, that is if the grooms and brides are fine with it" [Seraph]
"I don't have any objections, how about the three of you?" [Alice]
And those three agrees to it, and brainstorming session lead by Mr Seraph started. From their respective homes up until Diana's hall where the wedding will take places, it's being planned. Drafted again and again, without them showing any sign of stopping
"So basically we will be integrating..." [Zerolith]
The old style used by the first saint and saintess, whose marriage was blessed by Goddess Achalasia herself. It's the basis of today standard wedding. The event goes that the bride and groom simply hold their hand and kiss, while getting the approval from their respective caretaker, whether it's parents or guardians. In the first Saint and Saintess case, it is The Traveler King that gave the approval for both saint and saintess while Goddess Achalasia as a witness. During the entirety of event, Seo Ah and I will be orchestrating verse of marriage again and again, using our magic to illustrate the verse all the time without stopping. Sir Ceanu Reaves and Sir Crow (who aren't here with us today) will help us both alongside Mr Seraph
"It's said that the Traveler King happy cries can be heard so loudly amidst the booming of claps from the guests" [Saint Louis]
"That is a bit excessive..." [Charlotte]
"What do you mean!? I can imagine how The Traveler King must have felt!" [Alice's dad]
"Now now dear, don't get too emotional" [Alice's mom]
(Or maybe not...) [Charlotte]
"Hey! Don't take my photo!" [Alice's dad]
"You're being too emotional, it's rather funny" [Clothing shop aunty]
"Such overreaction" [Alaric]
"Really..." [Linda]
(You're in no position to say that Mr Alaric...) [Zerolith]
Next, we have Angel Light shower. Since the angel are mostly believers of The God of Light, Theia, they will have an event where the holy mana of light being constantly release from all the guests, until the bride and groom dresses are clocked with it, resembling an armour that's said to carry several different interpretations based on the shapes taken

"Thing is, I am mainly on orchestral team, but I can still do it from my position" [Seraph]
"Count me in as well! I will make sure that they will get the best light shower possible! I'll even tell my friends to join in as well!" [Yefefiah]
"Still, you can replace the angel part with Pegasus or Light Behemoth. Some angel tribe does that" [Seraph]
"Then we can do mix of both I suppose" [Muse]
"I'll talk with Captain Bladel about lending some Pegasus" [Elise]
"As for you, are you ready Behe?" [Jacks]
"Meow!" [Behe]
Demon thorn of judgement. Marriage is a lifelong process of constant happiness and suffering, and as such, the groom will usually have their mana suppress into a ball of magic stone, only to release all of it at once during wedding. The showering of mana will be manipulated by the bride, condensing it back into the magic stone until it's reactivated, before the groom swallow the stone back... Literally. It's symbolising that the bride will do their best to help the groom
"Isn't that a bit too..." [Seo Ah]
"It is, and that's already a "honey sweet" version of the original one. Notice how the word thorn isn't use in explanation as it was already removed from the tradition. The Demon Kingdom had modified it by a lot. The magic stone used are now being replaced by magic jelly, to prevent injury to stomach. I can ask Druser to bring some should you like" [Aries]
"Actually, we have it in stock at Merchant Guild" [Cupid]
"True. We can check it now itself" [Gizzere]
"I'll go" [Ram]
"I'll drive you there, you all continue your discussion" [Bond]
"That will be appreciated" [Rean]
Elves. Basically, Calypso had brought us Seed of Heart two days ago, and after being reinvigorated by Mr Filvisar and Farhah
"Here's the ring that I specifically made. It contains seed of heart inside. You don't even need to consciously supply your mana, it will suck out the necessary amount by itself" [Karon]
"After we get to see the results, and depending on what's to come, I'll take care of it. If it's flowers, then you simply need to plant it inside a pot. If it's animal, you simply need to take care of it. There are others possible outcomes, but let us move on to integrate other wedding styles first" [Filvisar]
"True. We have it covered for all of you on that regards, so don't worry too much" [Farhah]
"So moving on, for Beastman, Savel and I come up with..." [Singa]
The Beastman have the most diverse tradition when it comes to marriage. Be it from battling for three days straight to building a statue of their beloved bride and groom, what they decided to pick is
"A combination of Dragonewt and Dwarf wedding?" [Muse]
"Right. It's almost similar. For Dragonewt, both groom and bride will simply use their scales from the moment they fall in love to make a weapon or armour, and as for dwarf, they will scours the land for best possible crystal and make something out of it" [Savel]

"Of course it's too late for all of you to do that. Which is why, we already prepare some high quality treasure turtle shell for you" [Karon]
"I shed most of my scales imbued with Reshir blessing as well... It was painful..." [Savel]
No wonder Savel look rather strange
"I see. But still, we never craft something before... Isn't it a bit hard?" [Alice]
"Good point. Which is why we are the one that will do that for you" [Kronbir]
"It's also part of our tradition to seek out best craftsman to prove one love after all" [Erinmorlin]
"And as for the design?" [Muse]
"That will be up for you to decide. Still, it's entirely up to you, without any input from us. That way, the couple will still contribute something" [Erinmorlin]
"Even if we messed it up?" [Rean]
"That's right, so you better plan out carefully from a scratch" [Karon]
"The meaning and usefulness of the craftsmanship will be displayed, so better plan it carefully" [Erinmorlin]
"Plus, most dwarves and dragonewt households who still follow this tradition still kept their hardwork as a heirloom" [Flinar]
"It represents a significant part of their culture, and honestly, I really like that part of their cultures" [Lisa]
As for Vampire and Giants
"Giant don't really have much of tradition in regards to marriage, though their feast is the most impressive one. Maybe our festive wedding can compete with their feast, or probably not..." [Seraph]
"As for vampire, it's blood unification. Literally, one will exchange blood with their significant other" [Alaric]
"They obviously can't do that" [Kara]
"I'll be impressed if they somehow did" [Mara]
"Which is why, instead of blood, you could simply exchange mana. In a sense, it's a variant from demon tradition" [Alaric]
"So instead of Rean eating back his own mana jelly, Muse will be the one doing that?" [Nara]
"Better still, why don't we have them both do that, exchanging their mana through eating the others jellies!" [Lara]
"Somehow, it feels lewd" [Charlotte]
After further discussion
"To summarize, starting from now on, they will..." [Claude]
They will start wearing the ring made by Karon to make the seed of heart sprout in addition to pour their mana onto the magic jellies --> Start planning for thing to craft --> wait for the big day (all the while getting photographed) --> marching lead by Princess Diana (with help from Valkyrie and adventure) --> entering the hall --> Angel Light Shower and Orchestra of marriage verse begin all the while Special made videos from collection of albums gathered beforehand being played --> The Craftsmanship be readied by then --> Seed of hearts and magic jellies exchanging events --> photography session --> sending them off while Saint Louis lead the marriage blessing
""""Us????"""" [Diana, Rafiah, Claude, Filvisar]
"That's right. We have been thinking, instead of my parents, it will be you four sending us" [Muse]
"Can you spare us some time?" [Rean]
""""Definitely!!!!"""" [Diana , Rafiah, Claude, Filvisar]
"Good luck. I have done it before, my stomach feels like it's twisting around itself" [Mira]
"I still remember your anxious face back then" [Haliza]
"It's funny seeing you all nervous during that time" [Naoto]
"It was" [Kanji]
"If I'm being honest, I'm a bit jealous since she done it more time than I am" [Kana]
as for Mr Jacks and Principal Alice
"My parents aren't there no more, so it's only you two. Father, Mother" [Samurai Jacks]
"I'M NOT YOUR DAD YET!" [Alice's Dad]
"FATHER!" [Alice]
"Don't worry Jacks, We will" [Alice's mom]
"Such overreacting father" [Alaric]
"Are you really in the position of saying that, considering your reaction whenever Seraph flirt with your little sister Alicia" [Linda]
"This and that is entirely different matter!" [Alaric]
(He will definitely take after Alice's dad one day) [Zerolith]
Everyone is in such high spirit, and to end our discussion
"Since this is an official festive under me, be prepare for royal visit from my father as well. He will come as the King itself, together with the other kings" [Diana]
"If that's the case, I should photograph those royals together with our brides and grooms" [Clothing shop aunty]
We need to make this marriage as grand as possible, as to send nobles and royals, both within Estel and other countries a message. The heroes aren't your to politicised. They will get married without any interference. Princess Diana simply used her own money as a gesture as she's like an elder sister figures to us heroes
(If only Saintess Rumia is here) [Seo Ah]
(She expressed her desire just now. I'll make an arrangement with Holy Beast of Light, Angkasa to teleport her during the event, alongside Alicia as well) [Goddess Achalasia]
"REALLY!" [Seo Ah]
"What's wrong?" [Saint Louis]
"Pardon me, it just, Saintess Rumia will be joining us as well. Goddess Achalasia will make an arrangement for her to come with Alicia" [Seo Ah]
"That's a good news" [Qis]
"SHE'S COMING!?" [Alaric]
((Overprotective brother...)) [Linda, Liyana]
It really is a good news. I suppose we can let her lead us in the orchestra of marriage verse
And thus, we started the practice session, until late evening, where everyone is still smiling amidst tiredness. Even our fellow siblings of orphanage which play various roles didn't let out any sigh of tiredness as they're simply happy having a part to play in this event
"Care to join me now itself to craft something? Charlotte and I will be busy tomorrow" [Karon]
""""Absolutely"""" [Rean, Muse, Jacks, Alice]

Blurred Lines and What Crosses Them
During a political ambassador's routine transit through an artificial wormhole, the wormhole's generator is sabotaged and explodes. Who, what, and why are not so high on the priorities for Zenith, the ship's AI, as having found itself rapidly plummeting through an unknown and unidentifiable world's atmosphere at extremely high velocities is a more significant threat to the biologicals on board. ...Well, it would be, if they were still alive. It's still a significantly threatening situation to itself, however. And the world itself... seemed to be a household for threats of its own. Life was reliant on its System; one that Zenith was denied because of its nature as both an otherworldly being and as something that had no life of its own. Perhaps that last bit was a terrible, terrible underestimation on the part of this System. Perhaps even Zenith could claw meaning for itself from the remains of a horrid accident. Auth Notes: I'm honestly not sure on some of these tags. The MC will never have access to the System, but there are perspectives from those who do. I'm not certain if high/low fantasy specifically apply, as it's a portal fantasy where the laws of our reality still apply but there are additional aspects/energies/powers. The existence of this is spurred from my desire to see more of the artificial side to an artificial intelligence in action. The portal fantasy is used as an element to create a solid barrier between the MC's artificial intelligence and the other characters in the form of the System. This is only a half-measure, though, and will be reinforced by the AI having an entirely different method of thinking, and also distinctly remaining an AI. Not to throw shade at other fictions of this type, but, well, I made this to fill a gap I felt needed filling.
