Reborn as the Enemy Prince - Chapter 300
Chapter 53. Calian seemed to have no reason (3) and
once again held his head.
This happened shortly after returning to his newly prepared room in the main palace.
“I drank it.”
“I drank it.”
I just heard that when I told him not to drink tea, he drank it all the time.
The royal palace was still silent about why Louise collapsed. According to what I heard through Chase’s birds, the story is slowly spreading among the nobles, but it is not growing louder yet. If it were the current Kairis, the voices of the nobles who had already rushed to the Senyuu Pavilion or gathered on Astricia Street would have been loud, but that was not the case for Secretia.
All the nobles who knew how to reason and raise their voices, but who had animosity towards Devlan, were already dead. This is a time when only nobles who were unable to discern between right and wrong or who had forgotten how to raise their voices survived. So aren’t the nobles’ thoughts and actions bound to be as short and weak as the wick of a burned-out candle?
I thought that Plantz, who visited Devlan in this situation, could be seen as quite good prey for the nobles. If the plan to kill Plants hasn’t changed yet, I wonder if what Louise experienced will be repeated again, and if the nobles’ opinions are tilted toward joining hands with Chase as Louise intended, they might try to do something to help Chase in some way.
At the time of the private meeting with Devlan, wasn’t it before the fact that Plantz had ascended to the throne had even spread? Moreover, if Plantz falls from poison, Louise’s affair will also become known, and even if Plantz wants to take revenge on the nobles, he will not be able to join hands with Devlan.
So I told him to be careful.
Plantz had answered that he already knew.
“Why… why did you eat that?”
“When I think about it again, I don’t think I would have included it.”
“I drank it because I didn’t think it had been poisoned, but it turned out that it was, so what did you do?”
“You didn’t hear.”
Calian, who looked like he was going to die of old age because of you, our noble and noble brother who believes in blessings and is very good at running wild, seems to have learned from seeing that even a certain amount of poison does not kill him, quietly lowered his eyes.
If someone wants to overcome the limits of their patience, they can try playing the role of the 3rd Prince of Kairis. I feel like I want to ask someone to take my place for an hour instead of a day. In the meantime, I will just be the 2nd Prince of Secretia.
After a while, I don’t know if it was because I had recovered or because my blood pressure had risen, but in any case, a thin voice came out from my red, beautiful mouth where my complexion had returned a lot.
“…… Hina.”
Obviously, someone would try to poison the tea, so I warned you so hard to drink it, just put it down and never put it in your mouth, but that person over there, who is like the back of a maple tree bud, drank it and came back. I told you everything.
Before long, Kalian finished his oatmeal banana soup, watching with satisfaction as Plantz, who was looking at Hina’s hand, continued to say ‘Okay’ out of his mouth. I felt like I could eat about 10 large steaks, but Hina told me not to. Unlike that person over there who was constantly scolding me, I knew Hina would listen well, so I endured it well.
Afterwards, I watched Hina, who had worked hard, eat a delicious meal with a full face, and then watched the green-faced crown prince begin to eat a whole steak grilled in olive oil and seasoned with black salt, and I drank a lot of water.
“Kiri.”
“Yes, prince.”
After finishing the meal, our Hina, who enjoyed the strawberry cake and strawberry ice cream, went inside and slept soundly. Kalyan opened his mouth.
“It seems like Master doesn’t come very often.”
“Association. The blue-haired crazy wizard is late.”
Plantz, who was proudly eating strawberry cake, answered on behalf of Kirie.
Now there were no bracelets or rings on Kalyan’s wrists and hands. Plantz, who listened very carefully to Hina’s words that she should rest and not use magic for a while, took everything before eating.
“Did you say anything else other than that you were going to look for Lord Hertz?”
“There wasn’t any.”
“lie.”
“Speak informally.”
“Don’t lie to me.”
Plantz frowned.
Calian, who was only half-listening to what Plantz said, opened his mouth again.
“What should I do if the crown prince of a country tells a lie in front of his younger brother, who is said to be so weak?”
Plants drank a very refreshing drink of carbonated water filled with mint leaves. Of course, Kalyan is a drink that can never be drunk these days.
“I think I heard that my brother, who is so weak, needs to get some rest right away.”
Calian frowned as he faced the pale face trying to recall where Hina was staying. Kalian was about to ask, ‘Who is it that caused me to end up like this?’ but he held back and said.
“It’s because I’m worried.”
“Who knows who.”
“I’m worried about you, Master.”
“You bark well.”
ah.
Sispanian.
“… Then, could you please meet the two knights I saw on the beach instead of me?”
“okay.”
“Not now, but with you when you come back.”
“okay.”
“Please also look at the materials that Sir Hertz has. I was in a hurry so I couldn’t look at them in detail, but I think I need to think about how to use them.”
“okay.”
“Kyrie says that no one went in and out of the place where Marquis Rin was, so I’ll keep checking there just in case.”
“Calian.”
“yes.”
“go.”
It’s not a big deal if Kalyan is not there for a day or two.
Since there was not only Allen, but also Chase and Plantz, Calian did not have to jump directly into immediate matters. Calian also knew that seeing a squirrel walking around with his eyes open would actually be more of a disturbance to others.
An accident doesn’t happen just because we put off work, and we no longer have to worry about dying if something goes wrong while we’re not talking to each other. Because Alan is there.
“…… yes.”
In the end, Calian nodded and stood up.
“Kiri.”
“Yes, my prince.”
After speaking alone with Devlan, Alan said he could tell them that he would go to the Wizards’ Association, but asked him not to tell Calian that there was poison in the tea.
The situation was the opposite of what Kalian expected.
If Calian found out that someone had given poison to Alan, not Plants, it was clear that any shred of reason left in that pretty head would disappear and he would immediately catch and kill the fearless bastards who poisoned the tea.
“I’m going to rest. Stay with me for a moment.”
“All right.”
“If anything else happens, wake me up. By all means.”
“yes.”
Thanks to that, Calian could have played a prank on Planz’s teacup, but he could not have imagined that someone would do something like that to Alan, so he went into the bedroom without another thought. And then I fell into a deep sleep again with Kirie by my side.
Planz, who hurriedly entered the bedroom and lay down, stood up after watching Calian fall asleep.
– Sweet.
Then he opened the door to Kalian’s room and went out.
Thanks to the power of the blessing and Hina’s healing, Plantz’s wounds were almost completely recovered. My condition would be similar to that of the day after a long sparring session with Calian or the day after organizing documents all night long with a crazy blue-haired wizard.
So, I was about to find out.
Who on earth is this guy whose liver has swollen to a level that Kalian could not have predicted, as he allegedly poisoned the tea that Alan Manasil of the world was drinking?
* * *
The baby duckling pecking at the feed in your hand is cute.
“The tea that Baron Manasil drinks is poisoned. Neither my mother nor your majesty are such thoughtless people. If either of them had been that stupid, this country would have been turned upside down a long time ago, but on the outside they look fine.”
“It’s not that I suspect Marquis Lin, it’s that I’m keeping an eye on Marquis Lin’s situation.”
“Yes. I understand. I know that my mother is the most powerful person in this country if she is someone who can move the nobles or secretly join hands with a force called Zeon. So, whether it is to act as a hostage or protect her, first of all, “I don’t care…”
Arianne continued, picking up the feed placed on the table one by one, placing a large amount of feed on her palm and holding it out toward the duck.
“By the way, what is his name? He’s very cute.”
I told her to stay at Louise’s villa with Aila for a while, but she inevitably came along. Then, as soon as he entered the Wizard’s Association, he petted Coco and gave her food, saying it was amazing.
There was no Arsene, we had to travel a long way, and we couldn’t find someone to look after Coco at the palace. So, Euria had no choice but to put Coco’s entire small house in the wizard’s pocket and go to the forest. After returning from the fight, Euria let out a long sigh.
Rachel and Ayla, who were together, just watched Arianne without saying anything. And Arsene, who was replying a few words, opened his mouth a few times before speaking.
“It’s very late. Stop wasting time and give me the materials.”
“Ah. Did you get caught?”
“It seemed like the lady didn’t trust me, so I came with her to the association without saying anything. I heard that the magicians in the association are Prince Chase’s forces. You will feel safe here, so please give me the information now. I will convey it to Prince Chase without any other tricks. ”
Material given by concubine Louise.
Arianne showed it to Calian for a moment at the villa and then took it back. And after that, I rarely handed it back.
“I heard that the nobles here have to see what’s written in it to get Prince Chase’s hand. So…” “That’s
not what I don’t believe in.”
Her mother, a marquis, is imprisoned in the royal palace and she cannot contact her fiancé, Chase. The daughter of a marquis who cannot fight and is not good at using magic. Arianne stood in this place full of Calian people and looked at Arsene with an unflinching expression.
“To Calian,”
As soon as Arianne began to say this, a cry filled with cold flow came from the blue-haired wizard standing in front of her and then subsided.
“Oh, sorry. I made a mistake.”
“Yes. I made a mistake too.”
Instead of explaining that she and Calian had decided to call each other by their first names, Arianne offered a light apology and then opened her mouth again.
“I asked Prince Calian not to come here. But he brought Prince Flanz, the people in command of the Kairis army, and the head of the Kairis Wizard Association. Then, they even called your amazing archmage. I came. As soon as I arrived, I was caught up in a big accident, so the nobles who had been holding my hand little by little were becoming agitated again, and in the end, I heard that the concubine almost died. Are you trusting Prince Calian and handing over the concubine’s information to you? In your right mind?”
Arsene, who was quite crazy but not without reason, fell silent for a moment. This was because Arianne’s words and suspicions were not considered excessive.
“I understand what you mean, my lady. If Devlan hadn’t reached out to the prince and Viscount Bern, we wouldn’t have come here either. But” “I’ll go back to the palace. I’ll tell you directly. Otherwise, just let me get out of here
. “I will move on my own.”
“Lady Lin. We…”
Arsene opened his mouth again, his face full of embarrassment. But at that time, I felt like a black shadow was passing by from somewhere. Then.
– Boom!
There was the sound of something being struck mercilessly. And Arianne lost consciousness and fell to the floor.
– Tuk!
While everyone was confused when they saw the Marquis’s daughter fainting, Aila quickly came over and held Arianne’s head to prevent her from hitting the floor, then sat her down on the sofa and took out Arianne’s bag. And then he threw it at Arsene.
“Take it.”
Calian said he needed data, and Arianne said he shouldn’t die. I didn’t say that you shouldn’t beat him, knock him out, search his chest, and take his materials. Then it’s done, isn’t it? Aila had a truly peaceful expression as she thought this.
Arsene’s face didn’t seem to care at all how surprised he was to witness Calian’s bird, Takkari, knocking down the daughter of a foreign marquis right in front of his eyes.
“… Ah… yes. Thank you… thank you.”
They say the people of Secretia are terrible.
I guess that’s right.
* * *
One familiar face.
Another unfamiliar face.
“Is Arianne safe and well?”
The middle-aged woman, with her curious eyes focused on the unfamiliar face, turned to Chase and asked.
“I am with Prince Calian’s people.”
“I’m very worried because the child doesn’t listen well.”
“They are not dangerous, so they will get along well.”
They were so close that one of them insisted that he couldn’t give them the information, and the other person hit the person in the neck. Of course, it was a story that no one here knew.
Soon Chase told us about what was going on. I just relayed the events that had happened so far in order, excluding personal thoughts. The person who nodded and listened to the whole story looked towards Plants and lowered his head.
“Then you must be Prince Planz, the second prince of Kairis. Is that correct?”
Plantz answered in a low voice to the middle-aged woman who gave an unhesitating greeting to an unfamiliar face.
“Crown prince.”
“Ah. Has the title changed in the meantime?”
Plantz just nodded without saying another word.
Chase didn’t bother to mention Plantz’s position. Plantz had asked me to do so.
Marquis Lei Jian Lin.
A person without white hair, but with a slightly wrinkled face and eyes that were exactly the same color as Arianne, smiled and opened his mouth.
“Congratulations. I won’t be able to congratulate you for a long time, but for now, enjoy it.”
One corner of Plantz’s mouth rose slightly at the words, which seemed to indicate that he had no intention of going to Camilon, but had only taken the position.
“I know.”
“If you are locked up, will your eyes be blocked from looking at the world?”
Kirie had said that no one had come in or out of Marquis Lin since last night. So, the Marquis was clearly able to guess why Planz had risen to that position simply because he was the ‘Crown Prince’ whom he had just found out about. It was also said that he was a person who could think.
“It was not I who gave poison to Baron Manasil. This place is not so uncomfortable that you would want to leave after doing so, sir.”
After hearing this, Plantz closed his eyes for a moment.
And Chase let out a deep sigh.
– Do you believe that?
– Rather than completely trusting Marquis Lin, there are other issues that hold me back.
Plantz, who had been looking at Chase and Marquis Lin in silence for a while, turned his head towards Chase.
– That brilliant knight of yours. I don’t think I can see it.
Teylan Castrin.
I finally realized that the person who had always followed Chase was nowhere to be seen.
