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。316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVjaudBlEiQ

大葆士在化妝間整理妝容時，葛柏上尉前來找他。316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzCiQ0yhdgf
316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNRixMGsaMo
「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！」316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT8FI0z5i87
316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ91nA4XnHpD
「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。316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ29vzNK3Xft
316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjZbwApy1ZQ
「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！316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRoV85wBdt5
316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqNvzVFyprY
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！316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡypWJwkLWkR
316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC2LsORv0l3
「哎呀！我的歡鴿！」眾人驚叫。316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSi1Z4kOCL9
316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOoaTUClJIa
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。316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNcSXPKTANj
316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ42UEoo5uPH
大葆士換上正式軍官裝，以真實模樣參與典禮。316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeh0GeeVTk4
316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJwjbpXQ4dU
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。316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVXvLpjMWRx
316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCvsGjuJFrx
弄巧成拙的失誤，一次就夠了。316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4X8hL01O1u
316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFy92H4KnKj
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。316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmKCjJG7twu
316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOdP38OAPo7
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。316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8LoROGs3jv
316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYqF0OBj8Xw
「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。316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8tV6Kpy8sw
316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡst9BgOckHM
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。316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl0EgvVk2Hc
316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYIzSDHDWUf
「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。316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡclRhTZz83y
316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf1bCrdUgCZ
「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。316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNqyfaYHkfy
316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEcDW9ksFvM
「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？」316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHUD2qpz2T3
316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp5rfaCTVsX
「是的，女皇陛下。」大葆士有些尷尬的低下頭。316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsOPDnyDxJg
316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrN3YWLeDUT
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。316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfbxZJb6Ho1
316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxwxjSW4tRV
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。316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgQ4v6sIo5R
316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZN2nent69T
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。316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUtYtdEPr1t
316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVvZgeO3QPz
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。316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL6KXMI80gd
316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtHNrI7wJJ7
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！316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE1DBQbSqfh
316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJIENDN4TtE
「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。316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPAIKxWyNCD
316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgTI7xWbErA
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。316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBP7EGOmOCM
316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWoO4Dxkrj3
「……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。316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPHJ4fE0oeM
316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnYVz2IzWn7
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。316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxDycqffqxG
316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ8a7SXmls3
「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。316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLAlWzSflNl
316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ5kzenRklu
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。316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm9Hal1KCBI
316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDYhGRVa5zf
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。316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡihPTlneYzv
316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6DNTxORG0F
「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。」316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkElS6aG9Oq
316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJQ3g4oYRuo
「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。」316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1pyHrhZoay
316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1grhBm878l
「不用了，謝謝殿下。」大葆士維持行禮姿勢不動。316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqGELVD4YhT
316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr4qd7GUsZD
「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。」316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡutBnwpJvhf
316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnafIVj32oT
「謝謝殿下。」大葆士直起身，接過公主給的莓果。316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡditVhSibXH
316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpfCJNeNlHr
「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。316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZFZmw6mF03
316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGlDqFDmUai
「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？」316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmkk3PvDIwL
316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6xcSt25aUN
「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。316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmjMOmbNl9I
316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHeGP8ePNFH
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。316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaiXcGsl5EP
316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs6oH1p0fJS
「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。316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPYsuGzXo1z
316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpIzy4QymbH
然而，大葆士卻是站在原處，一動也不動。316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ329D19UnZf
316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrKfbmjSfXk
「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。316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmvl6RbTyZu
316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Yaic8EWJE
「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。316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg4xAP4KNmp
316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmxjZSeqLxu
「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。316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCoxjmLGi1h
316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPqgvTqpWiQ
「好的，殿下。」大葆士點頭。316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSDfL5fqkGt
316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5OiMK9Xdvu
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。316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn22QMYIPg3
316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡppUhXz1HNA
「少校喜歡吃甜點嗎？」艾雀公主注意到大葆士在笑，於是問道。316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡumB4TCzFCX
316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf6fJGliaEK
「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。316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlDXD6JaL6r
316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG3DGlTMh6p
「請吃吃看。你喜歡的話，我可以再請御廚準備一份。」公主笑道。316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJWO1IlfPrv

316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeEQBLEDw0V
「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。316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4VhOCrem3k
316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8gYCyJ1GUC
「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。316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL3CXfKhqJp
316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmlXiRefJ8g
「那……你都看什麼類型的？情感類的你會看嗎？」316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFPhhmldvbT
316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyZNIp3qCXS
「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。316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWZTX7YebTJ
316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhjMi1BH8CK
「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？」316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLnCrvbSoZt
316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4ckwVEdO6U
大葆士挑眉，公主見狀連忙打圓場。316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYZDpl0xjiF
316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjoV2RAvu3Y
「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。316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjCKFslLTyo
316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7aMTT6WbGp
316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6ArnXIjIPE
「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。」316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeq75RTgjG3
316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmsFBM9mmYg
316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡez3zOq4214
「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。」316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwBMiejJDC9
316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ27TvmcakO
316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr7MziA6ho8
「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。316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhPxgRNW3iE
316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ68d9jjxaff

「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。316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKdwlRSkArp
316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCih3ZoYkhh
316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7LWVwTwb6T
「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。316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl7cMZA4LuH
316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcLI9BTI1pm
316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡge0xaC2asa
「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。316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPHG1uDjpQc
316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfzT58HsvM9

316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGieRvsNisb
316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzxPJgNOcms
「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。316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBXYOAcVDJF
316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnDqcHpoieo
316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSfR39Ka49N

316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGW0g7J54ID

316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQEaLrVjdnz
316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD3LlxXiHcT
「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。316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOCDB76i6P0
316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw9DWBs6mPa
