Reborn as the Enemy Prince - Chapter 313

Chapter 55. To the abyss, you (5)

The sweet scent of grapes wafted from the pale golden wine.

It was brought by the surprisingly meticulous Plantz on behalf of Calian, who had been taken to Secretia on the way from meeting Demirea. For example, it was the price for one sour tangerine from Secretia that I ate some time ago.

Calian entered the main palace, stood guard over Chase, and brought out Plantz, who was with Devlan. And along that path, he dragged both Chase and Plantz to the annex.

After that, we ate.

Chase, who thoroughly enjoyed the sweet dessert wine made in the north-central part of Kairis, opened his mouth. Marquis Lei Jian Lin had a relaxed attitude, as if he had momentarily forgotten about the situation.

“You revealed the conversation with your father at the Kairis noble meeting. You had a pretty good idea.”

“Actually, Demirea is still looking for the royal palace. I thought it was important to let you know that the relationship between the royal family and Duke Siegfried is still there, so I asked for it separately. And a sword master named Siona Hill helped the guard knights and added strength. “It exists, but I don’t think it’s enough.”

“That’s right. Even if you haven’t been away for a while, the palace is now empty.”

“Yes. The leaders of the Balkans and even Brother Plantz are here, and even the position of crown prince has been decided in an unprecedented way.”

Chase nodded at Calian’s words.

There are no Kalyans in Kairis now.

No Arsene, no Allan. In one word, Lemain’s neck is really tough.

Demirea had already visited the palace three times and talked with Lemaine before returning. Siona, who was being used properly thanks to the deal with Calian, visited Arfia Palace whenever she had the chance and assisted Lemain’s guard knights.

“It won’t be a big problem for Prince Randel, but it won’t be for Briesen.”

“Ah. Actually, Marquis Gray Briesen wouldn’t have the courage to change his mind.”

“… Yes. I heard what you did to him. Still, I thought it was good that you didn’t use as much help as before.”

“I’m holding back well these days.”

Calian, who had become very kind, smiled brightly.

I pretended not to notice that Planz, who had touched Gray’s waist while trying to eat the pork spine dish that Calian had said he liked, instead picked up a piece of minced chicken breast and a long sliced apple rolled in pickled cabbage.

“Yes. Anyway, I was worried that people around me might instigate the Marquis Briesen. So, since it was the day of the meeting, I spoke with Brother Plantz in advance about making sure the story could be told during the meeting.”

As discussed just now, it is true that Calian and Plantz planned to make Devlan’s conversation public through a revised edition during the central noble meeting of Kyris.

In this situation, if there was a problem with Lemain’s safety, there was no reason for Randel to have any other thoughts, as Plantz, who was ‘allied with Calian with Alan on his back’, would safely return to the palace and inherit the throne. If you leave it alone, Plantz will come down from the throne on its own, so why bother touching it?

However, the nobles, especially Gray Brisen, were worried.

It was true that Gray was afraid of Calian, but it was impossible to know his true intentions, so it was difficult to guarantee that there would not be a move by the nobles to solidify Brisen’s power by defeating Lemain and quickly placing Plantz on the throne.

“There is no way Devlan will step down like this, so if you are going to go see Devlan anyway, I wanted to serve as a warning to both Devlan and the Kairis nobles. Kairis may be agitated due to worries about war, but it is better than putting your position in jeopardy. “I thought it would be better.”

“It’s a good idea. First of all, we need to naturally show off His Highness King Kairis’s power.”

Lemain, who induced Devlan to reach out to Plantz and learned of Devlan’s intentions, decided to briefly create a situation where he could move Balkan on the spot. Even though the palace seemed empty, Balkan reminded us that we were still inside the palace.

Plantz moved Devlan, who was cornered, well, and Devlan opened his mouth as he thought. Lemain was also angry, as Plantz had assured. Up to that point, everything went as planned in advance. Until there.

“Yes. But.”

Calian stopped talking and looked at Plants.

“You came back with something else to say. Brother Planz, your Majesty. I didn’t have a plan for that.”

Sold again.

On the day we went to the beach, we sold it to assess the situation, and this time we sold it to get Devlan to move quickly. Of course, the person who sold was Kalian, and the person who sold was Plantz.

LeMaine created a reason to move Allan Manasil.

I showed Devlan that I could bring Alan Manasil here at any time. He asked for a deal to get rid of Calian if he would let Alan appear here as he wanted and if he would let him attack Devlan first.

Devlan accepted Plantz’s words. No, I almost accepted it.

They wanted to keep Plantz detained in the main palace as a condition, but Plantz refused and Calian rescued him, so it must be said that the deal fell through for now. However, it is true that the trade proposal is valid, so if Devlan decides to bring in Allen without detaining Plantz, the deal will proceed again.

“Since the situation went as expected, Crown Prince Plants should have tried something else. If Lord Manasil wants to take the initiative, my father will also hold Crown Prince Plants’ hand, and only then will he find out what his father’s final hand is. What is it? “Shouldn’t we find out if it exists and fight an all-out war?”

It’s Seungsan, it’s Nabal, and my brother and younger brother were sold again.

That light green guy over there, who is pushing aside the soft onions between the grilled bacon, sold me out by saying it was the best way. Why didn’t you talk about that and instead take the side of that guy who looks like a stem of leaves growing at the top of an olive tree?

I wonder if that wine suits your taste that much.

I told you that you like wine.

“… That’s true. But didn’t you feel so different after just one bottle of wine?”

“It smells good. There’s no shortage of flavor.”

Chase laughed for a moment when he saw his younger brother chewing and swallowing lamb with a look on his face that had a lot to say. Then I held the fragrant wine in my mouth for a moment and swallowed it.

It’s unfair and saddening that I’m in such a pitiful situation being sold all over the place, but what can I do? The facts are true.

Anyway, I’ll tell everything to Jan when I get back.

He’ll tell you everything, asking you to look at my back.

“So, how is it going on Marquis Lin’s side?”

“I changed the plan a little. I thought I would just create a mood and disperse. Since the situation turned out as I expected, I should also aim for something else.”

“Are you demanding that the nobles who are currently being detained be released first?”

“okay.”

“Then after that.”

“Wouldn’t it be better to use the birds and take out the nobles first? Sometime today.”

The last word was not from Calian or Chase.

These were the words of Plantz, who had filled his stomach after listening intently to the conversation between Calian and Chase, and Calian looked at Plantz with a full expression on his face.

“I am very proud. You are learning so well and growing up.”

“Eat well and bark again.”

Calian, who smiled and nodded, answered on behalf of Chase.

“Brother Chase, you must help the nobles first with your power, and then the nobles must step forward and bring down Devlan, so that when you ascend to the throne, the nobles will not say anything about the price. And the reason you received Marquis Lin’s help first… .”

“This time, we’ll have to have a civil wedding. If Arianne doesn’t like it, I’ll try to find another way.”

“Yes. If the national marriage with Marquis Lin goes ahead, there will be no other problems. It may be said that the Marquis’s power is behind his back, but if a new army like Vulcan is created centering on the Birds, the Royal Knights, and the Wizards Association, such a thing will not happen. Because words will slowly disappear.”

My younger brother had an arranged marriage, but not a civil marriage.

I don’t know if he just lived alone for a long time or if there was some other reason, but he didn’t do it anyway. However, this time, seeing that there was talk of a national marriage, it seems that the person raising the bird also did not have a national marriage.

‘I’m sure he wasn’t that old.’

Still, I wouldn’t have been over 30.

If so, it means that Planz of the past also ascended to the throne and went to war before he turned 30.

Plantz, who came to a rather strange conclusion, said that when he returned, he should tell Lemain to eat at least some healthy food.

“It wouldn’t be nice to see my brother’s former brother staying here. Even if it’s dangerous, wouldn’t it be better to go back to the main palace?”

“Are you worried that I might be seen as hiding under the protection of a crown prince or prince of another country?”

“that’s right.”

“it’s okay.”

After saying this, Chase smiled and put down his wine glass and stood up. Then he walked to the window and pulled back the curtain.

One corner of Planz’s mouth went up as he looked out the window.

“I thought you were raising some birds.”

Kirie, Hina Rachel, and the knights of Kairis were currently staying in the annex. Except for the fact that the garden was a little smaller, it was an annex of similar size to Queen Diana’s villa, so the number of people staying there was small compared to its size.

So, the countless knights standing in front of the annex and lining up towards the main palace were definitely Chase’s knights.

“A naughty prince told me not to let my hands go. Thanks to him, I moved a little faster, which is very helpful.”

Knights of the Secretian royal family.

He brought all of the knights under Teylan’s management to his side. Devlan’s direct subordinate knights or another royal knighthood are still under Devlan, but if the birds outside the palace and the knights inside are combined, they will not be easily outnumbered even if an all-out war breaks out.

“I will protect you well so that you will not be harmed even if a civil war breaks out, so you can rest and not worry, Crown Prince Planz.”

“Good.”

It is not under the protection of a foreign prince.

Rather, it was the opposite.

Chase, who was protecting the crown prince of another country, the prince, and the crown prince’s fiancé from Devlan, came back to his seat and sat down. And I started enjoying my favorite wine again.

okay.

Alcohol made from grapes should smell like grapes.

* * *

– So when can I step forward?

-More than that, Master, where on earth are you right now?

He increased one circle, collected Chase’s birds from all over the continent, hid them, and moved Marquis Lin’s private soldiers to the front of the castle. In this way, Alan Manasil, who showed off his intervention and power, disappeared.

Kalian’s voice was filled with joy as he had only recently contacted him after the conversation in the banquet hall.

– I felt like I was focusing too much on my new son these days, so I came to see him for a while.

– … Did you go to that nice place alone? Alan, who was looking down at the tombstone engraved with

‘Ronil Manasil’

in shaky handwriting, looked like he was smiling a little or crying a little.

I secretly stopped by the palace to bring flowers and came here in the middle of the night, but before I knew it, it was morning and then day, and I was talking with Kalian.

– If I continue to stay in Secretia, my circle will increase and I feel like I will overthrow the entire palace. I came here to see this child after a long time and to calm down a bit.

– I am okay. Really. I won’t go through the same thing, so don’t worry about me.

– Would you say it’s the same thing if you take poison, vomit blood, and collapse? In the end, it’s the same thing that my child gets hurt by a knife and a horse sent by another guy.

If I had a moderate amount of power, I would have been angry and revenged, but I was too strong and couldn’t do that. As Teilan said, the strongest must also have the heaviest steps.

It was like that back then too.

I stayed on this earth without being able to get angry at anything. I knew I had to do it and I did it because I knew. I lived in the contradiction of having power and having to suppress it.

-Brother Chase called the knights. It is said that Kirie is also sharp and His Majesty is very angry. I’ll be safe and well. And this time, I won’t be soft either.

– Do you know that it is soft?

– yes. I am reflecting.

– I’m glad to hear that you still know.

– I will reflect a lot and come to my senses. I will call you again when you can come and be as angry as you want. Until then, please say hello to me. Don’t think about me. I will be sad that my father was taken away from me.

Alan laughed.

– All right. That’s right.

Alan, who soon finished communicating with Calian, put down a flower he was holding. The flowers Veronica bought and Hina gave as a gift. A sweet-scented flower that reminded me of Kalyan because it has transparent red petals. It was Cabania.

Date of birth Date of death.

I never thought I would see the date of the last day written under my son’s name. I still felt unfamiliar and not used to seeing that date, so I placed flowers on it.

“I heard that the flower bloomed in the pot that Veronica bought.”

The story is that your daughter bought the flower to make medicine.

Veronica started making medicine after you. This means that it has grown so much that it can find its own flowers and buy them on its own. Even though it has grown so much, there are times when it is still immature, as if you bought the wrong flower. I couldn’t bring you the sweets you loved so much, but the flowers have a sweet scent, so please understand.

The saying is that a new son has been born who resembles that flower.

“…… Time passed before I knew it. They said the flowers had bloomed.”

So many words were put together in that one flower.

Because so many words were put into that one flower, I couldn’t say anything else. I just looked at my son’s name written in an unfamiliar place.

I didn’t know how much time had passed since then.

It was daytime when I spoke with Kalian, but the sun had set and set before I knew it. The long shadow fell again on Alan’s flowers and on Alan’s many words.

How much longer has it been like that?

When blue darkness began to seep into the sky, replacing the red sunset. Alan, who had been standing still until then, turned his head.

“I guess I’ve been out too long.”

This time I was half laughing and half embarrassed.

Because in the distance I saw a gorgeous carriage pulled by six horses.

Someone was walking slowly alone, leaving behind a pure white mother-of-pearl carriage decorated with gold. Seeing that, Alan thought about going back to Secretia like this, but then he smiled again and lowered his head.

“long time no see.”

“I thought you would run away.”

“I was thinking of running away, but I got a lot from him, so I should be able to do that.”

“I’m glad I sent you so many things. I was worried that I would almost miss it right before my eyes.”

bright blonde. Dark pink eyes.

It was Eline, the king of Riverne.

“I heard that a wizard with unusual hair color was here, so I waited to see if he would come here or the day before, but he never came.”

Although she was speaking lightly, Eline was not looking at Ronil’s grave. It would be correct to say that you cannot see it. Even though I waited for Alan until now, he didn’t come, so I guess I had no choice but to take the difficult step.

“Say hello. It’s been a while.”

That’s why Alan spoke like this first. Only after receiving permission, Elinne took a step back and prayed silently toward Ronil’s grave.

Did he have as much to say as Alan?

Eline’s greeting continued for a long time.

After saying hello, Eline looked at Alan and opened her mouth.

“You’ve become young again. You’ve gone back to the time when I met you, so I guess I’m jealous of this.”

“Is there anything to be jealous of? I have been under the bondage of not being able to die for a long time.”

“Still, I’m glad you made up your mind. It seems like the matter was resolved without any problems.”

Alan frowned slightly at these words and asked back.

“Solution. What do you mean?”

“I told you. There was a wizard who ran away from here. I thought you took care of it since you said you killed him without incident.”

“It wasn’t me, but the head of the Kairis Wizard Association confronted me, so the name was changed by the head of the association.”

This time, Eline frowned.

“How is he?”

I heard that there was a wizard who ran away and I quickly reported it. Fortunately, Euria killed him without any trouble, but I heard that he had a hard time. After that, while I was talking with Elinne again, I stopped the conversation because I saw Calian, who had met Devlan.

okay. Because of such an urgent situation.

“The president of your association must be from the 5th circle. How do you deal with the 7th circle?”

I couldn’t check the basics.

“…Gina. I heard it was that kind of name. Wasn’t it?”

Two other 7th Circle wizards used pseudonyms.

Alan didn’t know their real names.

I feel a cold wind blowing through my heart.

Even in the dark, it was clearly visible that Elinne’s face had turned pale.

“no.”
