Reborn as the Enemy Prince - Chapter 325
Chapter 57. Please (4)
It does not exist or exists once.
Of course, this is a story about Calian’s patience. In most cases, I don’t have any, and I only tolerate it once in a while, but considering that it’s a stormy season, I tolerate it a little more when it comes to peas. Because Kalyan is an adult.
It usually doesn’t happen, but it happens occasionally.
This is an explanation of Kalian’s reason. This is also acknowledged by Sispanian, so it is difficult for Calian to refute it. However, there are times when Calian loses his temper and then regains it, but in most cases, it is because he is concerned that Pea, who is going through a stormy period, will learn from the bad side of him.
You think it’s good, but when you know it, it’s not.
This is an evaluation of Kalyan’s personality. However, there are significantly few people who know this fact. This is because most of those who have experienced that humanity are no longer in this world. I know that his personality is complex and not at all good, but the reason why he survived without any trouble is because he is my family, my fiancé, my ex-fiancé, or because he is my friend. And it is because peas must not forget that it is another time of stormy weather.
“…… under.”
Because my younger brother is such an amazing guy.
As his younger brother was showing his patience again today, Pea-pea sighed, making a small noise as he was faced with an imminent situation where he lost his senses and showed his humanity.
“I don’t think you even know what an apple is.”
And then I started fanning my burning personality.
The colors on Jan and Reric’s faces change, and Arsene’s eyes begin to sparkle very brightly. So Planz lived up to everyone’s expectations a little more by leaning back in his chair and crookedly raising his head to look at the crown prince of Tensil.
“Your generous brother will understand and move on. I didn’t expect any courtesy from them.”
Surely Kalian had thought about it first? Knocking on the table as a habit. So I thought there must be a reason for him to suddenly get angry like that.
He gave Tensil’s fuse arbitrarily and then took it back, acting as if Kairis had unreasonably demanded the fuse. Although he could not send gifts to the celebration of King Kairis’ birthday, he still has not apologized for sending holy knights into the palace. The reason is to let them know that the grievances that have built up due to such things have not been resolved and to gain the upper hand in future conversations with them. In addition, it would be better to stop the trickery that spreads that Planz is aware that his ascension to the crown prince was a trick.
Then my younger brother looked at me with the eyes of a well-raised child. He’s probably doing it because he’s intentionally getting angry, so it doesn’t matter how he views me, but I’m the older brother. So, instead of hiding the irritation that was flooding in, I showed it on my face. It may seem like I’m very angry at Tensil’s rudeness, but it’s true that I’m annoyed not by him but by my younger brother.
“I heard that if you set your eyes on Crown Prince Plants of Kairis incorrectly, Prince Calian’s sword will come flying at you. So, I spoke to him first to get permission to say hello to the prince’s older brother. “I am not unaware of what lies below.”
Complete disregard for Planz.
“Permission… Yes, I have to get permission. But.”
While Arsene was wondering if he would be able to see the land of Tensil this time, the words directed at Serjane continued.
“A non-royal person dared to speak to my brother first. I have to decide whether to let such a person live or not. I think I need to get permission first. Not you, but my brother. From me.”
Kalian didn’t say anything else. I was doing my best to keep my mouth shut because if I left here, it would only be like ignoring Planz. Instead, it was Plantz who, having anticipated what would be said, spoke freely within the well-timed Silent Act. It’s a big deal, a nabal, and first of all, they’re impersonating royalty. Because Plantz also saw Hina’s sign language.
Plantz, still sitting in his seat, raised his head a little more. And then he opened his mouth again with his eyes looking down at Serzane, who was standing in front of him.
“What. You.”
Serjane grinned.
“Wasn’t he the bastard in his brother’s arms?”
“What? I asked.”
It was similar to the one the blue-haired crazy wizard showed just before a smile appeared on Plantz’s face. So, while Plantz narrowed the corners of his eyes, annoyed by him instead of my younger brother, the guy’s mouth opened.
“Tomorrow at 11 o’clock, let’s have some tea. I have something to tell you.”
“Nope.”
Plantz smiled.
“I decided to go eat codfish with my younger brother.”
I answered that I was going to have fun eating cod, so I wouldn’t meet a dangerous guy I didn’t know who he was. He smiled brightly as if he was really looking forward to the taste of cod.
Now, on the contrary, Kalian, who is in a situation where I have to stop my brother, has become an interesting face. So, I’m thinking for a moment whether to add more oil or water to that atmosphere.
“Your Majesty the King.”
Chase finally completed all the rituals and entered the banquet hall.
Chase, who saw the Crown Prince of Tensil and Calian and his party together and sensed that the atmosphere was not very good, turned his eyes towards the Crown Prince of Tensil. He was smiling with a soft face, but his eyes were very sharp. It seemed like he was curious about what was going on and also seemed like he was wondering why you were standing there.
Since he couldn’t continue the conversation in front of the king, Serzane slightly bowed his head towards Chase and looked at Plantz and Calian.
“We’ll have to continue our conversation later.”
Then he smiled again and walked to his seat.

Thump.
The glass of alcohol I put down as if I was feeling refreshed was empty. Euria picked up the bottle of Basilica and filled the glass she had just emptied. Of course, it was not the precious Basilica that Kalian had received from Chase, but another liquor he had bought at the store. They couldn’t drink to their heart’s content at the banquet hall celebrating Chase’s coronation, so after returning to the villa, they all gathered together again for a small drinking party.
Euria poured a new glass of wine and laughed as if it was fun.
“Hey, we decided to go eat codfish. You spoke very briefly, but you still argue well.”
“I guess I’ve picked up the speaking habit from the prince. Our crown prince.”
“The Crown Prince’s speaking habits may have passed on to the Prince. He is the Crown Prince’s younger brother.”
“That may be true. Anyway, he picked up his speaking habits quickly. Veronica also imitated her father’s speaking habits shortly after learning to speak. Since she’s the older brother and the younger sister, there’s no way she speaks any differently.”
Kalyan and Plants also saw Hina’s sign language.
Naturally, everyone there knew sign language. Even Euria and Rachel learned sign language during their free time after Devlan’s work was over. Thanks to this, everyone in the room saw what they said, so Calian didn’t have to remove them from the Silent Membrane’s range.
Rachel, who clinked her glass against Euria’s glass, which was now full again, opened her mouth.
“What is it? Crown Prince Tensil.”
“Well, I didn’t even say when I would come back. I just smiled and said I understood and left.”
“If it were me, I would have said I would meet you just out of curiosity, but you sharply refused, our crown prince.”
“That’s right. Anyway, there is no one with a sane personality in Kairis.”
As Euria said that, she stroked the silver hair of the person who was sleeping on the table.
“No. Except for one person here.”
It was Hina who gulped down a glass of basilica, which was as strong as himolica, and dozed off to sleep before long. Calian probably wouldn’t have stayed quiet if he found out that our Hina had been drinking like this here, but Rachel and Euryah weren’t the ones to care about that.
“I’m fine too, Chairman.”
“Throw away the spoon in your pocket and say something like that, kid.”
“Shouldn’t that just be seen as a wizard’s true faith?”
“Uh, no. It’s a little weird.”
Rachel let out a laugh.
Arsene, who was feeling bitter for a moment at the reactions of the other wizards who did not know what I was thinking, picked up a sweet and salty snack of fried bananas sprinkled with cheese and brought up the topic they had originally been talking about.
“Isn’t it someone else, not the crown prince himself?”
Rachel’s gaze fell on Hina, who was still sleeping. This is because I thought that Aila’s disguise magic tool had turned me into a completely different person.
“I guess that’s right. We’ve tried making them look the same. It’s not a big deal, but if it’s the crown prince himself, why would they lie about their gender? There’s no reason to do that.”
“Then, it looks like it was Devlan who gave me the disguise magic tool. It may have been a condition for bringing back the Tensil priests, or he may have sent it for another reason before that.”
Arsene responded to Rachel’s words and tried to pour beer into his empty glass.
– Pajijik!
Then, a tiny purple spark rose from the water droplets on the beer glass.
“I know you had three drinks, kid.”
“Did you see all of that?”
“Uh, since I’ve seen everything, just drink the sparkling water over there. Go watch Coco.”
“I’m going to sleep on Coco. I’ll drink carbonated water.”
Euria chuckled at Arsene’s grumbling.
Still, if it doesn’t work, it doesn’t work. It wasn’t as good as frozen potatoes, but frozen banana fritters were no different.
“What are you going to do now?”
“Well, you’ll know if you watch. It’s okay if there’s a fight or not. Anything is fun.”
Euria, who knew better than anyone else that Calian was interested in the crown prince of Tensil, had a face full of anticipation. And I took a sip of the basilica from the clear glass.
* * *
The world is wide and there are many things Plants still doesn’t know.
“Have you ever seen this before?”
Plantz remained silent in response to Calian’s question.
To be precise, it was a slightly more fundamental problem than just seeing it for the first time. So, I was wondering where I should start explaining it so that he wouldn’t bark again.
“Okay. Now.”
So now, for the first time, Planz has learned that plates can be made from wood. Of course, it doesn’t mean I don’t like it, it just means that it’s the first time I’ve heard of it. So of course it was my first time seeing it.
Plantz, who answered while looking at the rustic wooden plate and cup without any patterns, briefly wondered if the fork and knife were also made of wood. And soon he looked a little disappointed. They were not made of silver decorated with fancy work and jewels like those seen in the royal palace or Slayman’s estate, but they were rough gray and made of metal, not wood.
I don’t know how I could see the expression hidden under the hood, but Calian’s red lips curled up to both sides as he pressed deeply into the large hood of the same robe.
“There’s no way we can even use wood for tableware.”
“okay.”
“Anyway, my older brother has grown up so beautifully.”
“I want to eat with someone.”
“Lucy and Anne sit together and eat. Can’t I just watch?”
“… in the first place.”
In the first place, aren’t you too naturally accepting yourself as something less than human?
As I was about to say this, the owner of the restaurant approached me. Then he put down two more large plates that smelled pretty good and went back. They didn’t even say “excuse me” or explain what ingredients it was made from or how to eat it. I just put it down and left.
It was also the first time. Even when I ate roasted wild boar meat while camping, I was at least told what kind of meat it was. Of course, this didn’t mean it was unpleasant either. It was just unfamiliar.
“The cod is cleaned, cooked on the outside in olive oil, and then cooked on the inside over charcoal at a low temperature. Then, it is grilled again in olive oil and served.”
Kalian explained on behalf of the restaurant owner.
Since it takes that much time to grill a single fish, this place is quite famous and expensive. He also added that ceramic plates are easily broken in the hands of customers who have been drinking or are easily destroyed, so porcelain plates are generally not used in any restaurant.
“Of course, this won’t be the case for restaurants in Kairisis or Secreta.”
“It’s not that I don’t like it.”
“I know. Just so you know. Things like this.”
“okay.”
Planz answered briefly and looked at the grilled cod that was sprinkled only with salt and no other sauce. It was very different from the one at the palace, topped with herb butter and tastefully drizzled with lemon sauce, but I didn’t hate it.
This was their first time seeing a place like this. Calian asked if there was a need to use magic to change their appearances, so they both wore only deep-hooded robes. Raven and Estina were also brought in without hiding anything. Thanks to that, I didn’t hate the fact that I came to such an unfamiliar place looking the same as usual.
“Please eat. The cod here is delicious.”
“I guess you came here often.”
“…… yes.”
The smile filled with anticipation stopped for a moment.
Coming a long way from Kairis to Secretia, using swords, getting hurt, and falling asleep, he contributed quite a bit to changing the owner of the throne of this country. Even after doing that, he did not come right away, but eventually came here only after seeing the king of this country fully established.
Now I’m telling you why I’ve been putting it off for so long. It is only when you come here that you are told that it was a place you could only come to after doing that.
“I stopped by this place every time I came to the villa. Sometimes I came with Chase. Sometimes I came with Arianne. Sometimes I came with Kirie. Most of the time I came alone, but I came often anyway. About three years later. Oh, now that I think about it, now. “Maybe it was before it was as delicious as it was then.”
It’s really strange to say that I’ve been coming here often since about 3 years ago. The words of a time when it is unclear whether it is the present or the future are being spoken as if they were past history.
About three years later, the grilled cod was delicious, but Planz just heard that he wasn’t sure what it would be like now, so he picked up a fork and knife. And without another word, he cut the fish, which was brown on the outside and white on the inside, into small pieces and put it in his mouth.
“Now that I think about it, I didn’t think of that. But it’s a restaurant that’s been running for a long time, so even if it was 3 years ago…”
“It’s delicious.”
Calian, who had been looking at the vast expanse outside the window for a moment, unable to tell where the sky started and where the sea ended, turned his head again.
“I’m glad. I heard you got it right in the mouth.”
“Eat. You too.”
“yes.”
Planz took a look at the same sea and put his fork to the wooden plate he had never seen before and the cod on it. Only then did Kalyan put the delicious grilled cod in his mouth.
“It’s delicious. Luckily.”
“okay.”
I ate grilled cod.
Both will probably be delicious for quite some time.
After barely eating that cod, Calian paid the bill as promised and got on board side by side with the fierce Raven and the extremely gentle Estina. Although he didn’t get off the horse, Planz’s eyes couldn’t easily leave the shops and people lined up around him, so he walked back down the street at a speed that was almost as fast as walking.
“Master must have arrived at the villa by now.”
“I guess so.”
“Did you hear that Brother Chase and Arianne will be accompanying us on a boat ride tomorrow?”
“I heard.”
“yes.”
If motion sickness is severe, just sleep.
Master is better at putting things to sleep than I am.
Such trivial words were exchanged several times.
– Diverse.
And then Raven’s feet stopped.
Calian’s eyes were already facing forward. Planz, who was about to take out Sinastar, carefully put Estina in range, and when he saw the unfolded shield, he just let go.
“It’s because Crown Prince Tensil is so light on his feet.”
I must say this.
I have to tell you someday.
I really should tell you that I know how to use a knife too.
“What’s going on? All the way here.”
You may or may not know Pea’s dissatisfaction.
Calian’s voice, full of hostility, came out thinly from under his black robe.
“If you’ve eaten cod, I think you can have a cup of tea now.”
The crown prince, who somehow smells like grapefruit, said this.
Raven’s feet moved. I was just trying to ignore it and pass it by. I wasn’t stupid enough to talk to a stranger in a place like this on a day like this.
“I have something to say about your big brother.”
– Diverse.
Raven’s feet stopped again.
