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。258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBj1xsBivW7
258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLYME2LV0Tn
大葆士在化妝間整理妝容時，葛柏上尉前來找他。258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqLR1jM9QiI
258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ789h7QI2UQ
「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！」258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYtHbiIxNU9
258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡelhzlgQIRZ
「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。258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡziIEFG1xoZ
258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ83lzqF5xLm
「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！258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGfAEdlDxPN
258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡknJ5cXSejS
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！258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7y4sXTeeIO
258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Q1CAFDUIV
「哎呀！我的歡鴿！」眾人驚叫。258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGwawV9HerR
258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsog2YkuLbn
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。258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDjMtFPhI79
258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhVFE4hJzC2
大葆士換上正式軍官裝，以真實模樣參與典禮。258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1im03dTJpL
258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4DlBLRGVub
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。258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkCOAgY5l2r
258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4txFNisJu8
弄巧成拙的失誤，一次就夠了。258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0c3AkdAidc
258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAm8YG7wMXR
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。258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfj5kuBCDxL
258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0X0GXXkN4S
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。258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdxNjqAKmrE
258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTsgxXSH5Wm
「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。258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOOtFC5bfKv
258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn0vWHCY44o
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。258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWuRnbBHYv7
258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2ckNdRw4Jr
「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。258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPikZEKaHGT
258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz4GiPtTYEj
「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。258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeAHyEpLHoY
258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6hJIMNPhFv
「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？」258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsqnubh5Oh5
258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxQSp2g0z7U
「是的，女皇陛下。」大葆士有些尷尬的低下頭。258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6eleI9N6jw
258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDoYe18Nkcf
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。258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW8kvXHcE4k
258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd27CEUUeED
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。258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Y6BAQNqQi
258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeHB5cnsTWe
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。258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNwB45EQBdg
258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwQJ8t2AklO
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。258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAvjpDLPj6r
258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeIOytPig1q
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！258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk0i2KKxk0L
258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNOS0HftUzF
「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。258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOlY6SdDV1C
258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ35s1KUzb0u
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。258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW1BuEaYoxl
258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm2QHlZy0D7
「……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。258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHGrYccUfTq
258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCuOkL63cCu
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。258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNgTBEAWZ8V
258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnoZRuesRX2
「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。258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsMJQw0RRU9
258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ30FMp2xidY
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。258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzGJFRNYEke
258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAijj0K5zMB
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。258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnjY4uhAaXL
258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaTlHbdRZkL
「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。」258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNXTDjUTK7j
258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2eajPFhvl3
「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。」258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTQzTaZUQ4E
258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoTpsYYy7Vg
「不用了，謝謝殿下。」大葆士維持行禮姿勢不動。258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI5zwtzIYYQ
258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtt84NQoTqi
「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。」258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2f7yuXn3Ri
258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpmOHCwfrUU
「謝謝殿下。」大葆士直起身，接過公主給的莓果。258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqxtOLyTBne
258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvJN229aRZr
「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。258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ3lXUfWCqf
258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB37IuACuuX
「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？」258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmkIvdGALCU
258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxr9ZGXRi62
「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。258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDuCNDydKv0
258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGAijpxGjtW
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。258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ25bRN9uFcS
258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBp9rUqKbXG
「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。258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡItprRl9EAY
258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1xdoJgRvZy
然而，大葆士卻是站在原處，一動也不動。258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBUD6zouILR
258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6XqP1MfaoZ
「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。258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡatqZinsPNY
258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE83VDnOxZO
「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。258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡupHNYqNQuo
258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ46xgDXM4rc
「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。258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡImp4gGLSHP
258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIlQchtsV2B
「好的，殿下。」大葆士點頭。258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsjFhi2zkZK
258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiBP8ER6Nks
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。258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5ruFaRWT9p
258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYz69f4luLu
「少校喜歡吃甜點嗎？」艾雀公主注意到大葆士在笑，於是問道。258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ86zFdl6v9v
258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBG1YhOMPKk
「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。258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP1vKHCb1fK
258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4BRj2iACmk
「請吃吃看。你喜歡的話，我可以再請御廚準備一份。」公主笑道。258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn1qXuDpIFK

258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLXJwRFm7cA
「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。258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW1pIkewm3I
258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNOvu0Rivna
「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。258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2TCpV8S1qT
258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMOm4DxI2CF
「那……你都看什麼類型的？情感類的你會看嗎？」258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg6AwPsBGGh
258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCGgnKztxcR
「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。258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTZ5k0cagg7
258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9FcmsruhA2
「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？」258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTiWpVtjr0c
258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTLTeghBst8
大葆士挑眉，公主見狀連忙打圓場。258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIk6eh3QG6k
258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyYm8Jda1H0
「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。258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3hvmm3FSvZ
258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt761D2mUma
258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMdQYpW1MXd
「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。」258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEuhh8M1sDR
258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJBkIGRG8Yp
258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe25CdlNFb5
「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。」258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1psKuxFgzI
258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM1KP5hQO1l
258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQZEwHJajsW
「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。258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7FoIxEvUo6
258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlNHxZ9oXE0

258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAjU7RJJL5L
「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。258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS4S9xpf1Fq
258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX3PcvIlPTO
258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYrGH9qLJaI
「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。258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV82ya3I9Yl
258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6lnL1Ox7Y6
258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdfukTOvYeO
「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。258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGvgYkZYdcO
258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuaiJ0xe5dp

258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0vmC370I4Z
258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA9xYLvjd80
「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。258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLXipRToOZi
258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡakw2f1pE5O
258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdtpBuZL9fp
「知道，殿下是模特兒。」大葆士回答，猜謎他可從來沒輸過。258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡplugNEpRuz
258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKJWV5e9Mf3
258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtblyzHDV3t

258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY3AP7e8EFz
258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ88CWvbX0Bh
「殿下非常漂亮。」大葆士沒有多想的附和。258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0clXqlVEhC
258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS5fuh0mc3k
258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCdCc9RJdfu
「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。258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJen8sxj24H
258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcrBycqCFRP

258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj14XuiVFjr
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！258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiYx8uZ0fPP
258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGr5YUg4g6J
258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUZpfhptws1
