The crowd was boiling over.
"Queen! Queen! Queen!"
The people at the very front excitedly raised their arms, shouting, with the emotion infecting those behind them who also began to chant, "Queen, Queen."
Audrey seemed as if she were in a dream, dumbfoundedly cradling the bouquet of roses in her arms.
Mona's body stiffened slightly, standing alone.
"Kiss! Kiss! Kiss!"
The boiling continued, the entire hall reverberating with calls for a kiss, escalating the proposal scene to its utmost.
According to Ratin Country's tradition, the next step after presenting flowers is the ear kiss.
Arthur smiled slightly, leaned close to Audrey's ear...
Audrey's hands trembled slightly as she held the roses.
A mere moment later, Arthur withdrew, still smiling gently at Audrey, then stepped back.
"Salon! Salon! Salon!"
The people continued to revel, wanting the future queen to accept their prince's proposal and perform a salon dance with their prince.
