閱兵結束後便是騎士受封大典。這次共有十五位在軍、政、學、醫領域表現傑出的候選人，大葆士便是其中一名。286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ49rE6CFl2k

大葆士在化妝間整理妝容時，葛柏上尉前來找他。286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIrSEJhj6ty
286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzvQVbKQI5u
「少校，您今天辛苦了！」葛柏上尉愧疚地看著正被化妝師努力拆鬍的大葆士：「我必須為昨晚魯莽的言行跟您道歉！」286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZUPzjWAp6U
286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPnqVR2Ewkp
「沒關係。」大葆士笑道。然而他的笑容因為臉頰被拉扯的關係，形成誇張弧度。286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoviyDYtmIu
286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDjXrIcc2Is
「不，我真的很抱歉！您是很偉大的機擬員，我必會用餘生誓死效忠您！」葛柏上尉說完，用力行了一個完美軍禮！286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRRToRzNwAn
286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6bknRdRVnQ
大葆士正要回禮時，一直拔不下來的假鬍突然鬆脫，他就這樣一頭撞上梳妝台！286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUub0PaagRv
286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJMEmKhsUAZ
「哎呀！我的歡鴿！」眾人驚叫。286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnyWlfUPinh
286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi9u4oaXAqW
受封大典在柏金漢宮主殿──「柏金大堂」舉行。女皇及主要王室成員皆會齊聚一堂，給予受封者祝福。286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6umBfNJVYN
286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC79spg1DHb
大葆士換上正式軍官裝，以真實模樣參與典禮。286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAgVyA0fI7o
286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwZghsBBncV
原本戰神殿打算讓大葆士依照宣傳照的形象出席，但美編部和公關部在看到大葆士閱兵的野人樣後，毅然決然放棄了這項決定。286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtWdYCVLmKX
286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡacZanBe1N6
弄巧成拙的失誤，一次就夠了。286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtHbgrgc6Sa
286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXhAuVBcRob
大葆士是第一次進入柏金漢宮的主殿，平民無法入內，只有王室貴族和高階政要才能登堂。然而，只要成為王室騎士，日後便可以自由進出主殿，享受最低貴族的待遇。286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPye6wwpVq0
286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOWNqIo1kst
輪到大葆士進行受封了。他慎重的走上台階，在女皇腳前屈膝跪地。286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡme0u1SKBLc
286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ3VBoWGmqX
「機擬員少校大葆士 ‧ 溫頓，吾今日奉歡鴿旨意，冊封汝為荊心騎士。今後汝將不惜一切保衛國土，守護弱者。無畏不懼！無堅不摧！此誓言汝必銘記在心，永誌不忘！」女皇平舉沒有劍尖的長劍，將其按在大葆士的右肩上，祝福道。286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoVZGbkR56z
286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmPN25LZuwd
女皇收起長劍，微彎下腰扶起大葆士，布滿皺紋的臉龐帶有無比的暖意。286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW6vy1NE9ky
286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHmFcw5fX9Q
「孩子，你今天表現得很好，布列斯托能擁有你是何等的幸運。」女皇看著大葆士輕語，後者臉頰泛起紅暈。286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrqUPY3aDlu
286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwgYu3OCwao
「謝謝您的讚賞，女皇陛下。」大葆士不敢貿然直視女皇，當上騎士是布列斯托平民的夢想。對於 10 歲還躺在髒亂酒瓶堆裡過活的大葆士而言，可從來沒想過自己會有這麼一天。286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD9oA6p5z0q
286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFJJFIuPu3K
「不過你好像長得跟剛才不太一樣呢。」女皇露出慈祥帶點慧黠的微笑：「這才是你原本的樣子，對吧？」286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkmKmRXDln2
286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiTSaqXlOj3
「是的，女皇陛下。」大葆士有些尷尬的低下頭。286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWqhnKqqbpT
286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhOvJsOyNfY
接著是授與騎士胸章的儀式。依照布列斯托王室傳統，每位騎士將由大王子或大公主的子嗣親手別上騎士胸章。286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3U18wrllxP
286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx0Ki4uLfcu
大王子威卡漢 ‧ 金列斯有三名孩子，這次的授與儀式將由今年滿 20 歲的三公主──艾雀 ‧ 金列斯主持。286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBfLmjcGSpn
286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn9cYt3kbea
艾雀 ‧ 金列斯三公主為王室著名的可人兒，也被媒體譽為集美麗與感性於一身的文學公主。286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvbf4j6hPCn
286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyczdAmEc4Q
艾雀三公主雖然還是大學生，卻已經出版過不少膾炙人口的愛情文學作品。美麗的她擁有眾多追求者，也因此經歷過幾段戀情。而這些戀情都幻化成她筆下的唯美愛情故事。286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoAp5iwO01R
286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOAfiqZ53Un
身著水藍半肩禮服的艾雀公主依序為一字排開的新任騎士們別上胸章。有好幾名男性騎士在對上艾雀公主那水靈靈的大眼時，臉頰同耳根子紅了起來！286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXdOs7TIrGE
286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWeHFB4P4s1
「願歡鴿祝福你。」艾雀公主清澈好聽的嗓音讓騎士們聽得如癡如迷。286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0l17VNzAuo
286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡObtMXRuLGx
艾雀公主捧著特製胸章盒來到大葆士面前，她看向大葆士，後者眼睛眨也不眨的直視她。286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ60ntQFTgh0
286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZZKyq0KBd8
「……願歡鴿祝福你。」艾雀公主停頓了兩秒，隨後打開盒子，為大葆士別上胸章。286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡihtztOgrof
286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjNxPo2Q2zI
別好胸章後，艾雀公主纖長的手指停在大葆士的胸口上，遲遲沒有移動。286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpxpyH1uWqe
286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡISv2UrLI2R
「殿下，該輪到下一位了！」一旁侍從小聲提醒，艾雀公主這才回過神！她快速抽回手，尷尬地離開大葆士面前。286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx7C7HgBbyZ
286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqiLdwQSNSg
受封大典結束後便是下午茶會。原本大葆士預計在結束後前往「象牙基地塔」與巴特夫進行交接，但女皇讓人傳訊給他，希望他能留下來與年紀相仿的王子公主們一起喝杯茶。286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5g9ANgIohC
286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAMhyGAHxFO
大葆士來到茶會舉行地點，也就是皇宮後花園。花園由專業花匠精心打造，並聘請園丁隨時照護，別緻景象讓大葆士在花叢前逗留許久。286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRJvVR7u8Sr
286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYNva4pEVg7
「那是『金葉莓』，口感甜甜澀澀的。」大葆士的背後響起清澈女音，大葆士連忙側身彎腰，朝艾雀公主行禮：「艾雀殿下好。」286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAxfo6b49iH
286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZzyRhkQ33m
「你好，溫頓少校。」艾雀公主露出淺笑：「你對植物有興趣嗎？喜歡的話，不妨摘一個試吃看看，我小時候很常吃的。」286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeBtXWC6YLc
286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq8WClYofLk
「不用了，謝謝殿下。」大葆士維持行禮姿勢不動。286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKRLvXIrIiu
286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4YkqoCEM7V
「沒關係的，啊，你請先站好吧。」艾雀公主伸手摘了一顆顏色最為鮮豔的莓果，遞到大葆士手上：「請用，溫頓少校。」286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwGekODwv4V
286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIFEVTAm222
「謝謝殿下。」大葆士直起身，接過公主給的莓果。286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwIl5AjldRn
286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNSjWgMz8KY
「金葉莓的汁液具補血作用，對女性來說是很好的補品。殿下可請御廚幫您熬煮成果茶，飯後飲用。」大葆士說完將莓果放進嘴裡。艾雀公主眨眼。286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0w54yWggt0
286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWrKP6CT0IF
「聽聞少校是高閣醫學大學跳級畢業的高材生，果然是博學多聞！」艾雀公主讚揚道：「溫頓少校，我想邀請你一同到位上喝茶，不知你意下如何？」286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFSdkbtDL48
286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeUVpMGVf4f
「那是我的榮幸，殿下。」大葆士再度彎腰。鮮豔莓果其實是過熟的，味道很苦，他心想。286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmQ6kxrr2Lw
286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAgIVaJAmnl
在艾雀公主的邀請下，大葆士來到茶會區。只見穿著精緻的貴族們一派輕鬆的坐在典雅沙發上，邊聊天邊享用美味茶點。286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfWn3NtC3YY
286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs9bBKgozH0
「溫頓少校，請坐。」艾雀公主讓侍女去準備新鮮茶點，打算與大葆士一起享用。286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKUfJBH9ZIz
286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHsrOqMqsME
然而，大葆士卻是站在原處，一動也不動。286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuS5YVFb5Pq
286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD1LMZ1RkRC
「溫頓少校？」艾雀公主輕喚道，大葆士盯著眼前享受生活的王室貴族們，瞳孔失去光澤。286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2NwDSc2Ipv
286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMlavjlwOo3
「大葆士？」艾雀公主喊道，大葆士回神，面帶歉色的朝公主行禮道歉。286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPh5ctB0sG9
286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvSlyJpxDZi
「不用那麼拘束，其實我們年紀差不多的。」艾雀公主笑道：「以後只有我們兩個的話，你不用對我行禮，說好了。」她小聲補充。286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCeQRjFCcGU
286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT0ViOOj3eC
「好的，殿下。」大葆士點頭。286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCaStE7eOB7
286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLO04eV2xH7
侍女提著點心塔和剛泡好的奶茶上桌。大葆士看著裝滿精緻茶點的餐塔，露出笑眼。286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh8JquFfW42
286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbnCLipWq96
「少校喜歡吃甜點嗎？」艾雀公主注意到大葆士在笑，於是問道。286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd4akLwXGbv
286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNM0o0lCjWu
「Hehe ，不是，只是第一次看到這麼漂亮的食物。」大葆士專注看著塔上的小蛋糕，殊不知艾雀公主正透過餐塔的間隙欣賞他的表情。286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn6RGn88bmN
286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCRygnSBu2h
「請吃吃看。你喜歡的話，我可以再請御廚準備一份。」公主笑道。286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9ZPty5NW5p

286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4O8DiGA03f
「請問少校有閱讀文學書籍的習慣嗎？」飲茶過程中，艾雀公主問道。286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNTefXKPkWZ
286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWU5C2Qzmfa
「有的，閒暇時會看。」大葆士小心翼翼的把蛋糕上的白巧克力片摘下，艾雀公主眨眼。286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpiDYy3YA32
286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQOmqaznh5W
「那……你都看什麼類型的？情感類的你會看嗎？」286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTi42mcb13z
286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJWBOxEYMqa
「多半是哲學，不看情感。」大葆士把巧克力片放進口中，艾雀公主抿嘴。286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmObDnwrB5O
286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfK8bTSxj3c
「希望我這麼問不會冒犯到你。」艾雀公主看著大葆士：「請問少校有情人嗎？」286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbJotMWgCxK
286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQoN6NRu9bP
大葆士挑眉，公主見狀連忙打圓場。286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLgFnTJ72oh
286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhIqNvV80sg
「請別誤會，因為你剛才提到很少在看情感作品，所以我才好奇是不是已經有陪伴對象才不感興趣……」艾雀公主伸手撥弄垂在耳際下的髮絲，模樣有些失措。286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ48aHemAA8p
286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqJALqNariB
286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡplFY7LOZT2
「我沒有情人，也認為自己不值得擁有。」大葆士望向遠方若隱若現的鋼鐵牆：「我能做的，就是保護各位與各位的情人，讓大家能安心延續人類的文明。」286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd5np7LlGnl
286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdBYAVFp06n
286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLzvBiZGpuq
「請別這麼說，溫頓少校。」艾雀公主皺起漂亮的濃眉：「我完全不認為你不值得擁有，你在大眾眼裡是相當出眾的男性。」286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNVVwzYhHGI
286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIiwuEX6rsu
286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5w5WcihHHM
「艾雀姊姊！」公主身後傳來銀鈴般的笑聲，只見一名穿著新潮的亮麗女孩從背後一把環住她的脖子，將頭抵在她的肩頸處笑看坐在對面的大葆士。286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwsL2GsYvxm
286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGsBL2944Kd

286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpaUNl1set8
286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX8WgcdSznp
「希文，在貴賓面前這樣太沒禮貌了。」艾雀公主無奈道，她輕搖頸部示意女孩鬆手。286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX1klGQNR5L
286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo4WMMYUfaf
286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHrOS2EgUjf
「您好，希文 ‧ 溫莎 ‧ 衛利普公主殿下。」大葆士對這名字有印象，他連忙從位上站起，對溫莎大公爵今年剛滿 18 歲的愛女行禮。286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkIzGSO9KCA
286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPjyZmzpkpP
286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoOhKbSwQtS
「我太驚訝了！沒想到大葆士 ‧ 溫頓實際上這麼年輕！」希文公主坐到艾雀公主旁邊：「哇！長得還有點可愛欸！」她眼角勾起。286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXM8bqXvK36
286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ6e24RqBHd

286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2OfDdgpyn0
286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyHj0PtvSeC
「溫頓少校知道我嗎？有在雜誌上看過我嗎？」希文公主說完站起身，開始在附近走起台步。286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdQqPj3UtBI
286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz2VavruVRb
286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3YVPgSClwQ
「知道，殿下是模特兒。」大葆士回答，猜謎他可從來沒輸過。286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6lQ4NXeoHt
286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkMcdaPZ3IM
286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLhvt8vU4JF

286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfkQqAIeimF
286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8O3PjdfXrV
「殿下非常漂亮。」大葆士沒有多想的附和。286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwHt5DEMQML
286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2xd7wxFbRQ
286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7PsmNuH7C7
「真的嗎？可是你從剛才開始就沒有在看我啊！只是一直看著後面的樹！」希文公主說完來到大葆士旁邊，緊挨著他的腳邊蹲下並且仰頭望著他。286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEOs6zCfGMQ
286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXnS0umC5Ew
286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvDTS41atrL

286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ47tgazxEy2
名貴茶壺從托盤上飛出，大葆士見狀立即伸出右手！魔方迅速從腕帶蔓延而出，眨眼間便構成一具機械手臂，在茶壺落地前及時接下！286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ45qfUDhH8Q
286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ78xZCoqTqU
286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtkNlx2YWzN
