Chapter 902 - The Wedding Of The Year!
--The Capital City, Empire Of Carona--
.
Today, the entire place had come to live, as everyone was busy preparing for one occasion, the wedding of their Beloved Female ruler, Queen Penelope and her Fiance, the now Duke Benjamin Hamilton.
The summer season had just ended 3 days ago, ushering in the beginning of Fall.
Nonetheless, the sun was still way up in the sky. But coupled with the gentle breeze of the early touch of Spring, the heat was not so unbearable.
It was a perfect sunny day that doesn't make one sweat a lot.
Everyone was filled with joy and jubilation as they danced merely throughout the past few days.
There were Baymardian banners hanging on several wooden posts all around that Captured images of Penelope and Santa together.
Also, were merchandise in the stores that all had images of the living couple too.
Flyers, books with their images, pens, calendars, and so on were all done to publicize the marriage even further.
This was the first time the people witnessed such a thing, which left them shocked and happy to see their royals on day-to-day items.
Some people desperately went around trying to collect items that had their favourite royals on them.
Hey! Some collected items with Penelope's face, while others chose to collect those of King Adrian, who was Penelope's grandfather.
In short, all the royals, including the women, were also very popular since they started the daycare center and brought other activities to life here hm Carona.
Everyone was very much looking forward to the wedding, 2 days from now.
Of course, the palace was also chaotic as well.
With a major wedding coming up, how dare they slack around?
This wedding was going to be one in a million!
.
--The Royal Palace--
.
"Oh my God, people!
We have just 2 days left. So pick up the pace!"
"Yes, ma'am."
"No!
Beatrice, I want the diamond-encrusted ones there, not the gold.
It doesn't look aesthetically pleasing."
"Yes, sir!"
"Come, Come, Come.
Someone should run to the Van and get more supplies.
This won't do.
We need to make it bigger and better.
I want the entire wall decorated with white roses.
I want it to look magical!
The entire place should be picture approved.
The cameras will be on that day, so then we need the red carpets and everything else.
Well, what are you waiting for?
Go Now!!!"
Up, down, right, left, and center, the whole place was currently transformed by the team from Baymard.
This was their biggest project ever since the royal palace of Carona particularly contracted them.
They were so shocked and a little bit nervous that they almost died from sheer excitement.
What did it mean to be contracted by the members of the royal family?
This was an advertising opportunity for them.
Of course, the Art and Beauty Academy back in Baymard also gave birth to one of the most powerful Event Planning companies in Baymard.
And those who graduated from the empire, or those who were still studying, could still work in the company as interns or full-time staff and whatnot.
The Academy and the company consisted of people from all empires.
So the Caronians, Arcadinians and other staff selected by the company... were more than excited to display their full talents in organizing and rearranging the place.
Be it creating a wall filled with fake flowers or making the palace's features stand out even more, they were very much up to the task.
Even the makeup artists were all fired up.
Again, it wasn't just one company that was contracted, but many, like KiLu's fashion designers that were tasked with creating Penelope's wedding dress, Santa's outfit and the rest of the royals.
Even the Camera crew came here because they were contracted too.
They brought both Solar-powered Cameras and electrically charged ones.
The electrically charged ones would stay in their vehicles while charging, as they drove in the possession, Capturing the many the people and everything else on that day.
Even now, they still drove around and shot scenes because they wanted to capture the people's joy before the actual event.
As for worrying about fueling their vehicles, this wasn't a problem.
Why?
Because each vehicle had a storage box in their boots filled with 2 plastic jugs of fuel and a simple pumping hose that can be attacked and detached to their vehicle.
And if they honestly needed more, then they could contact the ship that was waiting on the shores.
In turn, the ship would send several tanker trucks called Fuelers.
It was essentially a well-designed truck that carried and stored fuel carefully.
Of course, during missions, the tanker trucks weren't as long as the big ones used regularly in Baymard to transport fuel from the industry to the gas stations.
Nope.
They were much smaller and had the size of a regular bus when compared to the longer ones that looked like 3 buses combined.
Thankfully, since these tankers carry the fuel in steel compartments, no stray flaming arrow or anything of that sort would be able to penetrate it, setting a disaster loose.
Nonetheless, it still wasn't a safe job, so those in need can only call the sh.i.p.s for Fuel refills if they used up the large plastic jugs of spare fuel that they carried in a safe metal trunk in their boots.
Likewise, if called, those driving the tanks must do a quick job.
Drive there, pump fuel and go back to the sh.i.p.s.
It was better to be safe than sorry.
.
Anyway, those in the sh.i.p.s would send others to drive the tank to the Capital, pump the vehicles and give them more jugs of fuel for them to store safely, just in case they ran out again.
Be it medical aid or anything else; the sh.i.p.s were always around the shores for these purposes.
And so just like that, everyone has been running around like crazy, doing the best they could to prepare for the day.
Even the guards were told how and where they would stand on that day.
So they too had to practice.
The Capital was going crazy, but not more than Penelope, whose craziness was different from their excited one.
Never in her life would she think that she would be beaten so hard by a wedding.
For the first time in her life, she wanted to cry.
She was seriously contemplating if she should change her friends or not.
This was ridiculous!
"No way!
I've taken too much time off my training.
Why do I have to try all these outfits?
Can't you guys just pick one for me?
It's just a wedding!"
