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。386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSmY5vsOdGo

大葆士在化妝間整理妝容時，葛柏上尉前來找他。386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjL7sI7yDTg
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxFNZjjaY99
「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！」386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa926blMjvQ
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0BNE3gz8pB
「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。386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzgjfqoYewt
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZxGyP2i6aa
「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！386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTiEyCyr0c7
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4H5tRe6pHU
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！386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡChCIJiF3ZB
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡryOpz0R4DJ
「哎呀！我的歡鴿！」眾人驚叫。386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPOhSKi3i9t
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJQHN49oo09
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。386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3IalESnPwQ
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUeV2YjWAoH
大葆士換上正式軍官裝，以真實模樣參與典禮。386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfIzhdC3grl
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkDOyAV0Co9
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。386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1GCyKdrBQs
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmw0L7jJzXG
弄巧成拙的失誤，一次就夠了。386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMPHhwxO1RH
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ8Vx8NWPWh
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。386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK54fKvniR6
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXEamdmshdA
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。386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx2VHkRdUYF
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIj2YGHnDjm
「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。386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ46WUIMN3Dm
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Cn0qkmNE0
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。386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXS61NL2NBS
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2CJ75JX5jc
「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。386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTP6Xd0gCKI
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxg3C2R6BNu
「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。386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaqSLFHrykZ
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5ifZ4lLY9S
「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？」386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVTNDkhyAXR
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQGwRPY3Sw5
「是的，女皇陛下。」大葆士有些尷尬的低下頭。386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDqYaFyHe1i
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn4JccWUWYM
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。386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvX4T3WOfD6
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmmYFyHAGvL
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。386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡod0ckjmLKe
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEU9slF71zv
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。386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUC5240eBj2
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzmH2MUeFYW
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。386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbQsMvL209R
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVv3CfESKzp
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！386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoOozps8WHX
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhfpe7O1yw7
「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。386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTh7OWQ4PME
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMFWHn2Attg
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。386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTN27eISTd8
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUxYJpRsWG9
「……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。386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1S6GWJ22R2
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaxKlYv5kCh
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。386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlpiQg0DqpD
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgpZm47wjsD
「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。386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO1nE98oTQF
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAEtRP94Hak
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。386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQHT8uo2B3F
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyvF1xMbbuy
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。386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeIJat9bOPZ
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyFXxxd0dhz
「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。」386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTQH0NIpGs8
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ28SuH9BcAT
「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。」386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoGkhYG2tBn
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8dN4XJOGt5
「不用了，謝謝殿下。」大葆士維持行禮姿勢不動。386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb3LEF4JgqZ
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd91ZkYfwo9
「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。」386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5HUmXifXUr
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtxtodl3ObM
「謝謝殿下。」大葆士直起身，接過公主給的莓果。386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS05YywscBF
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTG1UsM5fr4
「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。386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1FSxwC2W6A
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB1ZtnEwMhd
「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？」386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCPVzSazMPQ
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtMo9sE0NSP
「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。386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkm2LG6nZD0
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtFJmpZBrXE
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。386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWjW3TmyMuw
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOWiGbcgChX
「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。386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiavcRjIJnT
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB5uh9oJVB6
然而，大葆士卻是站在原處，一動也不動。386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7wFQ7sGNte
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPZy5w68luQ
「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。386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr7AcZYFyzM
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2bDYa8b0J5
「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。386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeUd3gz3Nfy
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcZMuTJKwrL
「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。386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRs6vkyW9Bk
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKp9etNF8UV
「好的，殿下。」大葆士點頭。386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmGwQhG5FOn
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcpFzZHZBPg
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。386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEKvg6Gt1aE
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf5HEcrNCxU
「少校喜歡吃甜點嗎？」艾雀公主注意到大葆士在笑，於是問道。386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCNgQRenRNl
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmBLYWwR49P
「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。386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRQVa4YgzCE
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMLatg6NCVe
「請吃吃看。你喜歡的話，我可以再請御廚準備一份。」公主笑道。386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn3OAT1T2Ig

386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡePSS0FUy2b
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsv8RzUpAfB
「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。386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm02glHSKjU
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlQIfIO4ZuM
「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。386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjP9kMsH7uB
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQURuJhdoSU
「那……你都看什麼類型的？情感類的你會看嗎？」386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡswivAmKi2Q
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhcZjuxYt1D
「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。386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8cGy4SrbjZ
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRlnF6nzmXn
「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？」386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG075iHvTXq
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ43KfIjVsg2
大葆士挑眉，公主見狀連忙打圓場。386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEDLcRtTcPL
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡScI893YdaR
「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。386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2aPLiKndta
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkSCsSkzmHc
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4LGZckDTJT
「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。」386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZpPeYDHNdE
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgHO4hsQxow
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrOIEHPOmbT
「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。」386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXF8xzLfnNK
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Vms4yHGvJ
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAQbhttiuwO
「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。386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs5ygKywqC7
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTIjsJDu5vR
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyUpbn3CZvr
「欸？這位該不會就是那個機擬員少校？」女孩睜大眼打量大葆士：「你的鬍子咧？」386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡygmUYpNRAz
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2dVxKElHLn
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRVPzfaF8Yn
「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。386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ43fUnkeEb
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKxeGcus30m
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8ChBEM7Mtn
「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。386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVRZtnZYUuc
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxOwChMW0QS
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWYk88KJtr2
「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。386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEANYZOFES9
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdZ7tz27huP
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjwFhPJSwgf
「希文，我正在──」艾雀公主話還沒講完，立即被前者打斷！386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf3xZG21ziV
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP04cCxYhdG
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCbmH0wXLGp
「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。386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1MvPESA61P
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDPAWyxIygq
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKglIvoswhC
「知道，殿下是模特兒。」大葆士回答，猜謎他可從來沒輸過。386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqThqmGmkg6
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcyQ6J4yaph
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDcRVE7RS9a
「哇！好開心喔！」希文公主甩動淡亞麻色的波浪大捲髮：「那你覺得我漂亮嗎？」386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfb8xsEuQsE
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpXNkeiF03e
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGMRfXEnwEo
「殿下非常漂亮。」大葆士沒有多想的附和。386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaWkR11pJY2
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo0uSlAmcYj
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMxvf1tlPe7
「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。386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbgGIfaL0D1
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0FNrct6RVN
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVW5h2ypN7L
「不！殿下靠太近了！」大葆士趕緊從椅上離開，一不小心撞上正在送茶的侍女！386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpb96vjrlfi

386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBy3UvuetWQ
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！386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM57bGGKkSN
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoTp3FKOVjt
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl8mfeE4E2N
