Reborn as the Enemy Prince - Chapter 304

Chapter 54. Wildfire (1)

Ah.

I guess I turned around again.

‘I don’t know if I should say ‘again’.’

Actually, if you think about it, it is a question that is not difficult to answer.

From whom did Plantz learn to be irrational? So I decided to just take this matter lightly.

I guess the irrational guy with short patience has taken another turn.

‘I didn’t mean to turn around like this.’

What little remnants of reason I had left reminded me of something from just a moment ago.

– I will be back.

– yes. Bye.

After saying hello to Aila in the garden, I returned to the main palace and walked through the corridors. I walked in silence through the beautiful, regular shadows created by the arch-shaped pillars.

There was a smaller shadow walking in the water garden and a longer shadow. Until I saw that, I had managed to maintain patience. I thought that I would have to go back and spar more later, but I didn’t rush into it.

As I stood looking at Hina and Plants like that for a while, another shadow walked from the other side.

“Your Majesty is in front, Prince Calian.”

The chamberlain who was following behind said.

After seeing the chamberlain bow his waist, he lowered his eyes and nodded. Devlan did not respond and turned his head.

Devlan saw the two in the water garden.

No, I saw Hina.

Devlan’s eyes had been looking at Hina from the beginning. Plantz saw it. The quick-witted Plantz recognized something.

Devlan turned his head again and made eye contact.

“Hina.”

Plantz called Hina.

Devlan’s face did not change one bit.

I witnessed the truth that my brother had confirmed as if he had warned me.

Devlan already knew.

Hina. Kalyan.

Devlan laughed. So we smiled at each other.

“…… father.”

I am a human and he is my younger brother, but in the midst of Plantz’s deep concern, wondering why he talks sometimes, growls often, and barks most of the time, the person in charge of ‘him’ closed his eyes with a calm face.

And soon I opened my eyes again.

Secretia was different from Kairis.

The nobles residing in the capital Secreta were not as numerous as Cairis. Unless they were doing work related to the royal family, had their own territory nearby, or had a special reason to work and live in the capital, they stayed at their respective estates.

They often held small gatherings based on region or power to exchange information and did not necessarily stay in the capital for a long period of time.

It was for a reason that everyone knew but never spoke about.

– A benevolent king who is generous in praising and giving rewards.

Devlan was never timid when it came to matters requiring awards. After making a fair judgment, he was given the title he deserved and bestowed the appropriate land.

Secretia’s territory was smaller than Kairis’s and its seats were limited, but Devlan always had a suitable title to award and a territory that was just right for it.

– How are there always empty titles and estates?

– Nobles receiving new titles and fiefdoms continue to be created, so why is there a shortage?

The nobles did not necessarily wonder why. Because he did not want his neck to be cut off like a ‘dry, diseased, useless branch’. So I held my breath. He stayed quietly within the territory and did his best to keep his mouth shut to prevent his title and territory from being awarded to someone else.

So it was different.

Although they lived on narrower land than Kairis, the speed at which word spread was slower than Kairis.

Tailan, worried about that, opened his mouth.

“Sir. Only three days have passed. I guess we don’t have enough time.”

three days.

Time is tight for a bird with so many words to arrive.

– Devlan’s illness is so deep that it is difficult to guarantee his future.

– Devlan attempted to summon the priest of Tensil to cure his illness, and detained Marquis Leijian Lin, who prevented it. By attracting an assassin from Riverne and seriously injuring the crown prince and prince of Kyris, he almost brought about war in this land.

– The tea that Louise drank while talking alone with Devlan contained poison, and as a result, Louise is in a very critical condition.

three days.

Not enough time for the nobles to hear news mixed with truth and lies and to choose what to do next.

– Devlan Dullahan Secretia’s defeat has reached its peak.

– There is another person who has been given the title of ‘sacred bloodline’.

– A young crown prince who is indignant at almost losing his mother and holds Taylan Castrin in his hands.

three days.

nevertheless.

– Chase Dullahan Secretia.

Enough time for the name of another person with a legitimate claim to the crown to spread.

“that’s enough.”

Suffice.

It wasn’t lacking at all.

“Because rumors are like wildfire.”

After getting ready, Chase looked up.

The purple gaze moved silently and focused on the person standing in front.

“Lord Castrin.”

“Your Majesty.”

It is said that a mysterious light flows like a rapid in the cold sky of the northern great desert.

It is said that if you set your gaze on the shallows, you will not be able to turn your head until the night is over and the sun comes up. It is said that if your eyes are caught by that light, your lungs will freeze and you will not be able to leave until you run out of breath.

“Are you my sword? Or are you your father’s sword?”

Two eyes that looked exactly like rapids in the cold sky peered into Teilan. With that, the question asked in the land of Kairis was asked once again.

The proud knight gave the answer without any hesitation.

“I am still your sword.”

“okay.”

The person who had only dreamed, but had been disappointed and lost so much, nodded.

“Pruning. I’ll make you stop.”

Under the bright blue sky.

The pure white bird of prey is ready to spread its wings.

Another person in the same country and the same palace also unfolded something. I unfolded the Silent and also unfolded the neatly folded bottom.

-What are you going to do now?

Not after taking on the name of Kalyan.

The top button of his shirt had never been undone since he became king. I came here after solving it for the first time.

– What I will do.

So the bottom may have already been spread out along with the shirt.

“Father. Is that what you call me?”

Devlan answered willingly, and Bern just nodded.

“It doesn’t matter what you call it, but I’m glad it seems like I’m right.”

Now that I think about it, what is it?

If my wonderful fiancé found out about this, he would try to break our marriage and my life. If you want to live well and avoid breaking off your engagement, you should at least eliminate any possibility of secrets being leaked.

Now, the last bit of reason I had left came to mind, and I found the most reasonable solution to it.

I’ve found a solution.

“Yes. You guessed right, and I got caught.”

Bern grinned, feeling a little satisfied after successfully finding a problem and a solution.

“Then why should I say hello again?”

“Do we even need to say hello? I’m so sick of seeing you again.”

“No matter what, there is a law… Yes, that’s right. Wouldn’t it be a good first greeting to say you’re happy to meet you again?”

It wasn’t a difficult question to answer either, so Bern answered right away.

“If you act like you’re happy to see me, I’ll act like I’m happy to see you.”

“Okay. Nice to meet you.”

“Thank you.”

The green-faced crown prince, who happened to be present here, was listening to the truly cordial conversation being exchanged between a father and son of the same personality, and trying very hard not to make me go crazy as well.

“Aren’t you curious?”

“What do you mean?”

“What was Secretia like the day you finally died and disappeared?”

The topic of conversation was becoming increasingly tinged with deep personality.

So Plants decided to focus all his attention on making sure that Hina could never enter the Silent Screen, no matter what. I was afraid that if Hina heard this conversation, she would scold them both.

Devlan, who was unaware of this desperate situation, answered with the same expression on his face.

“If it were the day I died, wouldn’t many people be happy?”

“I thought that was it.”

Devlan let out a small laugh as it wasn’t the answer he was expecting.

“Oh my. I guess it was just an ordinary day.”

“Yes. It was just an ordinary day.”

Devlan nodded. And just as Vern had told me, he thought about something for a moment with an innocent expression on his face and then opened his mouth.

“But isn’t it strange?”

“What’s strange?”

“Since you remember that day so well, is it truly an extraordinary thing?”

If no one was surprised or happy about Devlan’s death and went on as usual, Bern asked how he would remember it. Considering the hostility towards Devlan, it also meant that even if it was a death that no one was interested in, it would have been remembered only by Bern.

“I’m sorry for disappointing you.”

Bern shook his head.

“It’s because the news of my fiancé’s death was announced that day.”

– King. Blue Warbler……

“I remember that because it was the first news I heard as soon as I became king. We were so close to each other that I thought we could become closer, but I was very disappointed to hear that we couldn’t.”

Devlan nodded quietly.

“It’s a shame.”

“No. Is there anything else you would be more willing to do?”

Bern’s lips, who had been haunted for such a long time and were still haunted by Devlan’s ghost, twisted up.

“I’m still alive, and my fiancé hasn’t died yet. Only you will disappear from this world again, and the rest will have a sad day. It’s a pity.”

Bern, who cannot lie, added one word while saying this.

“Ah. It’s a little unfortunate that my drinking has decreased.”

Still, it wasn’t a problem because I could just increase it again.

“Yes, but isn’t it truly a pity? Even I, your father, don’t remember you. Hasn’t your whole life disappeared and been forgotten?”

“Don’t scratch. He’s an angry person.”

What Devlan would most like to know.

But the last thing you want to know is.

“I want to tell you when my father died.”

Devlan’s mouth finally closed.

“If you’re curious, ask any time. Have you ever saved someone who was supposed to die by going back in time? Is that person still alive and well without any problems? Did they live according to the set time and end up dying again at that time? That’s the day for my fiancé. “I wonder if I will be able to survive past this. If so, what will happen to my father? I will tell you everything without hiding anything.”

I talked about him with a mixture of a little bit of truth and a little bit of lies. Melfir and Hina, who should have died, were still alive and well, but only Old Calian gave up his life on the appointed day, so in fact, even Vern couldn’t be sure. Devlan doesn’t know that Vern isn’t sure, so it doesn’t matter.

Hearing Plantz, who was standing next to him, let out a small sigh, Bern looked that way for a moment and then looked at Devlan again.

“If you think about it, you really have an honest personality. This is how you tell me something that there is no way to prove if you hide it.”

“yes. “I don’t have a hobby of lying.”

I’m afraid I’ll end up like you.

“By the way, does the King of Kairis know about that?”

Devlan, who looked at Bern in silence for a while, said this.

In fact, didn’t Devlan send such a letter? Lemain was the one who did it. If you don’t want people to know if you know, bring Hina and find him.

A laugh burst out of Vern’s mouth as he thought about that.

“I heard King Secretia is very sick, so I guess he must be mentally ill. It’s nothing for your father to worry about.”

Soon Vern stopped laughing and looked at Devlan. He raised his head and looked at Devlan with lowered eyes.

“But obviously. “I told you not to scratch.”

“You did. I forgot what you said for a moment.”

“The coronation ceremony for the new King of Secretia will be held in February next year.”

Since the negotiations that were offered in good faith had failed, I looked for the next step. Devlan did not laugh.

“Kalian. “

Planz, who had been watching so far, opened his mouth.

He spoke to the bright red eyes that were looking back at him. He

already knew that pushing a person too far into a corner is bound to cause an unexpected accident.

“Stop.”

He told me to stop there for today. .

The red eyes that had been looking at Planz for a while found their own light.

“Yes.”

He then said his last words to Devlan.

“My dear brother, he said he wanted to spend this winter warmly. After spending the middle of winter here, watching the coronation ceremony, and congratulating myself. “I will return to my country, Your Majesty.”

Calian, who showed that there were fewer days left than expected, bowed his head and

showed respect. It was a farewell.
