Reborn as the Enemy Prince - Chapter 174

Chapter 30. My person (1)

The scent came from the transparent purple lavender tea.

I’ve never seen it before, but I wonder if the flower called lavender has the same color as tea.

‘I prepared this because I thought it would help calm your mind, Your Majesty.’

This was the car that Raoul, the chamberlain, had put down with these words after hearing that Calian had left the palace on his own. I don’t know how much help the flower called lavender would have for peace of mind, but it must have paid attention in its own way.

I don’t know if it was the color of the tea or because the scent was surprisingly strong, but even the scent felt purple. So Planz stared down at the purple tea in the white cup for a long time.

Some people might think that the act of a flower that is no longer withering or blooming coloring something else is truly beautiful. well.

“Why are you looking at me if you’re not drinking?”

No matter how much attention he paid, his awareness never increased, so Lemain couldn’t figure out why his second son wouldn’t touch the teacup. Instead, he seemed curious as to why he was looking at the teacup so intently.

“Yes, Your Highness.”

So Plantz simply answered this way.

I know it’s an answer that doesn’t fit the question, but I couldn’t explain why I was staring at the car, and I couldn’t drink it either.

Planz felt like if he looked down at the tea any longer, he would invite her to drink tea again, so he quietly turned his head and looked out the window. I feel like I can still hear the sound of Raven’s hooves that I heard at Chermil Palace.

‘……Crazy guy.’

Of course, it wasn’t directed at Lemain.

That’s because I thought of some crazy person who climbed on Raven’s back and left the palace without saying a word.

That crazy guy would never have let a car with flowers be put down in front of him. No matter what color the flower is or what scent it gives, you will know what Plants will think of when it sees a flower with a scent in front of it.

But a little while ago, that crazy guy couldn’t even get the words out of his mouth, saying, ‘I’m going to save Arsene.’ I know that if I opened my mouth, I would have said that I would save Arsene, so I couldn’t even ask to clean up after myself and just left.

Nevertheless, I removed the flowers in front of Plants.

Nevertheless, he runs out to save Arsene.

Unless you go crazy, how can you stand on top of that gap? So, that guy who doesn’t know his age and says his name is ‘Kalian’ is definitely crazy.

It’s crazy Kalyan.

“Anyway, even though Count Manasil went with us, I’m still worried.”

Lemain caught Plantz’s attention again with these words.

A little while ago, when Plantz came to visit Lemain. Lemain was not particularly surprised to see Planz’s light clothes. This was because he had a good idea of what Planz had come in a hurry to say.

Lemain said that while he was talking with Alan for a while about increasing the number of men in the Balkans, he heard the sound of horses’ hooves through the open window. As I wondered if there would be no one running a horse in the palace at this time, the sound of hooves stopped in front of Arpia Palace.

After that, there was no sound for a while, but out of nowhere, Alan got up and said something to the effect of ‘I have a place to go with Prince Calian, so you should do the rest by yourself,’ and then left.

And not long after that, Plants came to visit.

“It’ll be okay.”

It was a somewhat blunt answer, but it was the best for Plantz. It was something I couldn’t help since I’ve never said anything reassuring to anyone.

“Isn’t Alan Manasil a capable wizard?”

After a short pause, Plantz added this instead of saying, ‘Alan Manasil is a capable father.’

Of course, Alan would have known that the person riding the horse was Calian. Isn’t it obvious what that means since he rushed over and stood in front of Arpia Palace and didn’t come in? Since I called Alan and went out with him, Calian wouldn’t get hurt.

Even if the sky falls and the earth splits right now, Allen will take care of Calian and take care of it.

“Okay. I know you’re overly worried.”

Lemain, who was saying that, looked as if he had suddenly remembered something. Isn’t the person in front of him now not Alan, Chamberlain Raoul, or Knight Commander Ren, but his second son? So, it was because I felt like I had said too much about Kalyan.

“Planz. I especially care for my third child. Please don’t feel sad.”

Now that I say it, it feels like an excuse.

LeMaine paused for a moment, wondering how to explain so there would be no misunderstanding, and then opened his mouth again.

“This is because there are many times when a child who was said to be extremely quiet changes so much overnight and is giving me all kinds of worries, and I don’t know how to deal with it.”

Plantz just nodded his head slightly without answering. Lemain, who was looking at Planz like that, continued speaking.

“But because humans are so contradictory, I also felt happy about it.”

Rather than being silent, weak, scared, and always intimidated, I am happy now.

Those

words.

“majesty.”

Plantz, who interrupted Lemain, quietly closed his eyes.

It was only his fault that the old Calian had been infinitely quiet, but it was both their fault that he had changed so much. Even if he couldn’t tell the truth, Lemain shouldn’t have said he was happy about it. This may be something you can only say because you don’t know the truth, but even so, Lemain should never have said that.

So I said it as if I was asking.

“Please don’t take me for granted.”

Lemain looked at Planz for a moment.

Then, understanding what he said to the extent that ‘Kalian causes too many accidents to be happy about it,’ he nodded and answered.

“Okay. Don’t take it like that.”

Plantz said nothing more about him. Instead, I opened my eyes again, looked at Lemain, and said.

“I came here in a hurry, leaving behind some work to do. Would you please allow me to leave now?”

It was something I said to get out of the situation, but it wasn’t a false excuse. I sent the knights to tell them not to go after Calian, so I had to do one more thing. The task was to call Hina and send her to the outer castle gate in the direction of the moving magic circle.

No matter how fast Raven is, even if she runs at full speed, it takes about an hour to reach the place where the moving magic circle is located outside the outer castle of the palace.

I don’t know when ‘they’ Chase mentioned would attack Arsene, but if the timing wasn’t right, there was a high chance that either Arsene or Euria would come back injured. Before they were sword masters, they were the ones who drove the prince of a country to the brink of death, so they could not have been dealt with by their status and military power.

“Okay, let’s go.”

After hearing the permission, Plantz quietly stood up, showed respect, and went out.

Lemain, who remained in the quiet office and stared at the purple tea that he had not taken a sip of for a while, let out a deep, deep sigh.

It was only now that I realized that I had behaved like a cow again.

* * *

The wizard’s eyes filled with fear.

Calian, who had dared to wake up the wizard, looked like he had forgotten something for a moment. He then began to examine the bodies of the one whose head had been cut off by his own hands and the one who had been killed by Arsene. There was no hesitation in his hands or face as he checked the body. I didn’t care at all whether the uncongealed blood flowed or not, or whether my white hands were covered in their blood.

The wizard’s wounds have healed.

There was magic power and a dagger. However, the wizard just watched Calian like that without even thinking about doing anything else.

“also.”

After a while, Kalyan said this. This is because, as expected, nothing came out of their bodies.

Calian, who soon returned to the wizard again, made eye contact with the wizard and smiled once again. A cool voice that did not match her flawless, pretty smile came out.

“I didn’t think he knew much, but I told him to keep me alive just in case.”

I got goosebumps.

I have met many people who laughed on purpose to scare the person they were obsessed with. But it was different.

The wizard could not properly see Calian fighting. I fell unconscious due to Arsene, and when I opened my eyes, I was in the current situation. Nonetheless, it was scary.

– Zabak

Kalian took a step closer to the wizard.

The wizard flinched and unconsciously tried to step back, but it was impossible. As if I was a frog making eye contact with an open-mouthed viper, the moment I saw those red eyes, my entire body became stiff and did not move.

Wizards were also warriors of the great desert. Although his skills were not comparable to Calian’s, he also knew how to use magic and use a sword. Additionally, even though Calian had powers he could not use, he had no intention of getting up again.

–

I heard the hem of Sarak’s jacket brushing the floor. Calian’s face came down close. Calian slightly bowed his knees and made eye contact with the wizard, then opened his mouth while manifesting Silence.

“If you want to tell me first, I’ll listen.”

Kalian did not say what he was talking about. He urges the wizard to reveal information that may be helpful to Calian.

The wizard did not answer and Calian did not wait.

– Hiss!

Before I knew it, the short dagger in my hand made the sound of cutting through the wind. Along with that came a terrible pain. A horribly painful sensation flooded my mind, incomparable to having been pierced through the shoulder just moments ago.

A scream came out without me realizing it.

Calian’s hand quickly stretched out and covered the wizard’s mouth. The wizard’s screams were interrupted by a pressure so strong that it was hard to believe it was coming from those slender hands. Calian spoke softly, putting the index finger of his other hand to his mouth as if telling him to be quiet.

“Speak rather than shout. It’s not that difficult to understand.”

I was tired of being forced to find out what I was hiding. So I didn’t touch anyone I met before. I did it even though I knew it would be a loss and even though I knew it would be more dangerous.

“Actually, I don’t like doing this. So I just killed all the people who came last time. I didn’t want to do it.”

I have no intention of doing it myself or having someone else do it.

– Phew!

The blade once again touched the end of the wound that had begun to heal. Calian spoke calmly as he watched the wizard struggling to escape from his grasp.

“So, if you had just quietly touched me, I would have waited patiently too.”

And then he held the knife once more.

There was no time for the wizard to come to his senses and come up with an answer.

A dark red substance that was difficult to tell whether it was Auror’s blood or wizard’s blood was dripping down the short sword body and onto the floor.

“You shouldn’t have done anything that touched anyone other than me.”

A warrior of the great desert with healing powers.

And the three princes of Kairis have learned better than anyone else which places are the most painful to explore.

It didn’t take long for the winner to be decided.
