Reborn as the Enemy Prince - Chapter 141
Chapter 24. The cornerstone of understanding (11)
I had forgotten for a while.
When I returned the dining knife with my hand dripping with blood. When he said in his unique, elegant tone that he was the one who broke Gray’s back. And when I realized why the Heysia Palace was destroyed.
You already thought about it, right?
I think my little brother is a little crazy.
“This is so…”
His younger brother, Calian, opened his mouth like this with eyes of complete disbelief. So Planz looked at Calian without hiding his annoyance.
Plantz thought that Calian, who met Chase, would have a hard time seeing Plantz and Arsene. I thought that if he was okay with having the two of them in front of him, he wouldn’t be crazy.
I should have reminded myself that he was crazy, but I forgot.
“Should I be surprised by your reticence or your consideration?”
Calian’s words came out with a quiet smile.
Plantz frowned as he realized that those red eyes contained something like, ‘It’s unique, but why did you do it so that it doesn’t suit you?’
This is all because of that wizard who seems to be a little more crazy than his younger brother.
Apparently, Planz met with Arsene today and made him not come to dinner. Thanks to this, I even had to exercise patience three times. However, in this process, there were two problems that Planz overlooked, and because of that, Kalian was saying things like that.
“If you’re going to bark, shut your mouth.”
One thing that Planz overlooked was the fact that he had an extremely quiet personality. I should have announced somewhere that Arsene couldn’t come, but I didn’t want to say that much.
Thanks to this, the chef, who knew nothing, diligently prepared a dinner for three people and Kalyan also prepared to attend the dinner.
Another thing is that Kalian’s thought system fell into a category that was somewhat abnormal to receive Plantz’s consideration. That’s why Calian said he would definitely call Arsene again. With a face that really said nothing was wrong.
If Arsene, who was very disappointed that the dinner was canceled, had not taken the money Calian gave him and gone out to drink with the Balkan wizards, Calian would have called Arsene back.
For this reason, Plantz’s life was not very pleasant. Kalian heard another sound from Plantz, but as usual, Kalian ignored it with one ear and continued barking.
“I am not as narrow-minded as you think. There is no reason why I cannot meet Lord Hertz today.”
“Was it a question of whether the inside was wide or narrow?”
Plantz, who was already silent, felt even more at a loss for words.
In the end, Plantz decided to just do whatever Calian said. So, today’s Calian neatly ignored the thirty reasons why he should be reluctant to Arsene that came to mind at the same time.
Calian, who had a slightly smiling face as if he knew this or not, opened his mouth again towards Plantz.
“Still, my brother cares so much about me.”
I know what will be said. It was my turn to say thank you.
Without a doubt, Plantz’s mouth opened first.
“Put it away.”
“yes.”
In response to the sharp rejection, Calian nodded like a sword and put away his thanks.
Soon Kalian thanked the chef and servants and asked them to leave. After looking around, I took a leisurely approach to dinner for three people. Of these, about 2.5 servings would probably be Kalian’s share, so there was no need to worry about the food the chef worked so hard to prepare being left over.
The problem was that since it was a dinner menu, the dinner menu was not ‘Planz-tailored’.
Duck stew with the scent of saffron, veal smoked with basil, roasted pork tenderloin with a cinnamon and apple stew, lamb with a strong peppery aroma, and more.
Calian, who glanced at the food, chuckled.
It’s something that can’t be helped. Wouldn’t it be possible to tell the chef that Prince Kairis, who is known for his personality of eating raw meat, is not a picky eater but has an eating habit that is closer to a glutton?
In the end, between meat dishes covered in spices, Planz said, ‘I am Prince Calian’s cat who prefers Prince Planz.’ I managed to find a tasteless chicken breast salad that seemed okay to share with the cat. Kalian, who saw this, opened his mouth in a passing tone.
“If you eat like that, you will never be able to beat Kirie.”
I thought saying this would make the gnawing stop.
However, when Plantz heard Kyrie’s name, one corner of his mouth curled up. Plantz, who took his eyes off the food, looked directly into Calian’s eyes and responded.
“I thought I would die before then. I.”
Calian still didn’t know that Kyrie had threatened to kill him during the sparring match. Because of this, Calian looked like he didn’t understand Planz’s words for the first time in a long time.
“My brother’s keen servant is very angry.”
Only then did Calian make an ‘Ah’ sound and make an embarrassed face.
It seems that Kyrie, who pieced together the difficult conversation between Calian and Plantz, has finally guessed what happened in the past.
Kiriera was usually quiet, but she knew very well what kind of change she would see in matters related to Calian. Because it was like that in the past as well. Kirie clearly did not differentiate between sparring and actual fighting.
Calian couldn’t scold Kyrie or say anything else about it. Calian knew best how difficult it was to think about the past in isolation, even if it was only speculation and no memory. Also, you can never force your feelings towards him.
“Did something like that happen? Starting tomorrow, I will go out again.”
Therefore, when Calian opened his mouth again to say something on behalf of Kyrie, Plantz spoke first.
“It’s okay. Either an explanation or an apology.”
This was meant to convey to Kirie that he understood the content and to change the sparring partner, and was not something he said because he did not understand Kirie.
“yes.”
So Calian answered briefly this time.
Then suddenly he burst into laughter. This is because they really refuse to apologize or thank you.
“I can laugh easily.”
“Is there anything you can’t laugh about after meeting Prince Chase and having a day like this? It’s fun, so you should laugh.”
Plantz turned his head and looked out the window. Plantz opened his mouth with his eyes focused on the lake and the rose garden behind it.
“Why did you go to Rubia’s pavilion?”
“Brother Randel also has one.”
Calian answered immediately, as if he had been waiting for a question to be asked. As he said that, the white fingertip was pointing at the chest of Planz, who was sitting on the other side of the table.
His red eyes are full of rebuke towards his brothers.
“…… that.”
“There will be one more thing that will save my brother’s life.”
“Yes. Thanks to this, this place has become a little busier.”
Calian said, tapping his head with the finger that was pointing to Planz’s heart.
“Anyway, brother Randel’s seal is a problem I have to solve. I think it would be better not to tell you.”
Planz, who was silent for a moment, leaned back in his chair.
As always, a low voice like a drowsy sigh came out.
“Why did you say something you didn’t want to say?”
“I’m telling you that you can ignore it because you think there must be a reason for him to go away. I’m worried that you’ll start a fight when you run into Brother Randel. Things aren’t going well between you two. A lot.”
“Barking again.”
Calian, who succeeded in barking twice a day, laughed.
“I have never told anyone other than Master about future events. I don’t think I have the right to do so. However, in order to solve Brother Randell’s problem, I have to use the information that Prince Chase gave me, and that is what happened now. “It’s not a record. That’s why I can’t tell you.”
Kalian added the reason why he was so honest.
“I think you’ll notice again. Don’t do that this time.”
If Plantz is curious about the matter, he will notice.
If left alone, Calian couldn’t guess what kind of thinking and conclusion Plantz’s smart brain would come up with.
After hearing Calian’s words, Plantz held a glass of water in his hand.
However, he did not lift it and drink it, but repeatedly swept the outside of the cold glass with his thumb.
Plantz said as he watched the water droplets on the glass being wiped off along the tips of his fingers.
“The power of Tensil must be divided quite complicatedly.”
“… I told you not to think about it.”
At the sound of Randel signing an oath, many people followed. Calian stared at Planz for a moment. Before long, a short sigh came from Calian’s mouth.
“My brother doesn’t listen too much.”
“My brother is very spoiled.”
Words are so annoying that I try not to say a single word.
You probably already know why you can’t tell me. Because it’s Planz. Nevertheless, this is how I want to know.
“I won’t tell you.”
“You can tell me what you’re trying to do.”
“I said I would try to understand, right? That’s why I’m preparing to try to understand. I guess you could say that I’m laying the foundation for understanding for a harmonious sibling relationship. I have to understand properly to be convinced, and only when I’m convinced can we solve the problem.”
Kalian, who said this, added in a quiet voice.
“Whether it’s Brother Randel, Kairis, or Serenti. I’ll try to understand it first.”
“Why on earth? It doesn’t matter.”
“I’m doing it out of concern, so you don’t have to worry about it.”
A soft smile appeared on Calian’s face.
A voice came out directed at the brother he loved and hated with a vague sense of guilt.
“Anyway, what I’m saying is, don’t walk blindly. Do you think there’s something on the road that you can’t see, so you go like that? Without fear. When I tell you not to intervene, you try to intervene, and when I tell you not to be sure, you somehow become sure. Anyway, I’m sick of talking. “You’re not listening.”
“She barks a lot. Today.”
“You can move after you examine everything properly and find out everything. If you think it’s okay after checking everything, it’s not too late to walk. So for now, just eat. Evenly.”
Kalian, who said this, grinned.
The message was not to remove the bell peppers between the chicken breast salad.
* * *
Completely on my side.
In that short period of time, many sides of Kalyan emerged.
Among all those people, there is someone who you can rely on unconditionally, rely on without shame, willingly offer help, and never think about receiving anything in return.
A person who will welcome you back with full arms, no matter what you do. A person I have no doubt will be by my side someday in the distant future.
When I wonder if there is such a person, there is one person who immediately comes to mind without hesitation.
“Ah……”
Alan Manasil.
“Master.”
I tossed and turned until dawn, fell asleep, and woke up to the sound of Jan’s bell.
The two were visible through the curtain.
‘I am Prince Calian’s cat who prefers Prince Planz’, making a loud noise on the sofa. There was a cat and Alan was sitting next to it.
At the sound of Calian’s voice, the cat, which had been lying comfortably on Alan’s leg and was happily lazy, got up. And then, as if he had made a loud noise, he ran out the door. Instead of Kalyan, who takes care of the owner of the leg he was leaning on, he wants to find someone he likes better.
After seeing this, Calian turned his head towards Alan and a bright smile appeared on his face.
“Are you here?”
I’m particularly happy to see you.
It’s always nice to meet you, but this is especially nice.
Even though Calian could not be seen smiling because it was covered by the curtain, Alan smiled and opened his mouth.
“I was on my own again.”
“no. If you are a teacher, you are always welcome.”
In fact, if it is Alan, it is always welcome.
Alan, who was so welcomed, could tell that Calian’s voice was relaxed after he welcomed him. In fact, he came here to find out. He had asked
Jan for tea. Calian hurriedly finished getting ready. After a while, all the maids left, and Alan, who looked worried about his student, opened his mouth. There was no need to ask how he was feeling, so he said something else instead. “Don’t be too pushy,” was the first
greeting
. Calian laughed again as he looked at his teacher who was giving him advice from above as soon as he could give it to him.
“Just let the wind blow for a moment, Master.”
Although the main gate of the royal palace is not visible from Chermil, still.
With these thoughts, Calian went out to the terrace and sat down on a chair.
Before long, Jan He put down the mint tea and milk tea and left. Since Kalian started to hate coffee, Jan tried to prepare Kalian’s tea himself. The tea that the baby elephant brewed with all his care always had a different taste. That’s why it was always delicious.
Table Alan, who was sitting side by side with Calian across from Hana, snapped his fingers. Calian, who felt the warm warmth filling the terrace, let out a laugh without realizing it. Calian will not feel cold even if he sets foot in the great winter desert. . That’s why I felt warmer.
Calian was always a flower-like prince in front of Jan, and was just a pretty student in front of Alan. I always liked that.
“You don’t have to snap your fingers.”
Calian, feeling embarrassed for laughing, asked this. Always. I was curious, but I couldn’t ask every time. Why does he always make that cheerful sound when he uses magic?
Alan nodded and then looked at the lake beyond the terrace.
That was the Seneu River where Annerusia floated for Calian someday, so it was the same for Alan. . So, it is a perfect scene to look at while thinking of the departed.
“Someone told me to do it like this when I was practicing getting rid of starter words. I thought it would be nice because it replaces a starter engine and looks stylish. It became a habit, and it’s like this.”
There was a longing smile on Alan’s face. So Calian did not ask who he was. Calian had also learned how to smile like that. “I told you very well who it was
. “It’s cool.”
Instead, Calian simply answered and nodded.
The day that Calian’s skinny hand, which he wanted to live for, grabbed Alan, not LeMaine. Carly could not be LeMaine’s son or Devlan’s son. Alan hugged him.
So Calian was clearly Alan’s son.
Now both Allen and Calian knew it.
So the worry could not be erased from Allen’s face when he visited Calian this morning. That’s why the smile on Calian’s face when he saw Alan was not erased. “… I asked them to send me less sour tangerines next time .
Also, I’m sure you’ll eat it all at once.”
“Why did you do that? “Tangerines are delicious when you eat them.”
“Please share some with the old man. “Do you bring all the sour things and then become greedy for yourself?” Whether
it’s tangerines or sour seeds.
Calian nodded slightly at the wizard’s words to share rather than take all for himself.
Just like that, he was having
breakfast with Lemaine . While Chase, who came out after finishing his class, looked at the Chermil Palace in the distance for a moment. The horse carrying Chase passed through the main gate of the palace and went up to the royal capital. Until Chase left the square and left the outer castle of Kairisis. Listening to a good teacher and more
. The small
talk between my favorite student continued.
