Reborn as the Enemy Prince - Chapter 416

Chapter 74. At the other end (3),

sparkling green eyes looked up at the red eyes.

The green eyes soon move to the side. Then I looked up again into another red eye.

“Wow…”

The palace is a truly amazing place.

The palace I came to for the first time was a little scary and a little boring, but the palace I came back to was not like that. As Plantz said, there were two cats roaming around freely, ducks swimming, and there were lots of horses. Contrary to what I expected, there was no cow, only beef.

Still, Lily was not disappointed. There were pretty fountains here and there in the large garden, small streams flowing, hills, and many flowers, as well as a large lake where you could float a grass boat. There were so many interesting things that I couldn’t see them all even if I walked around all day.

Plus one more thing.

“It’s really the same! It’s amazing!”

Same red eyes, same black hair.

There are two identical Prince Kalyan!

“Want to find out who’s real, Riri?”

“Prince Calian you just mentioned is the real Prince Calian!”

Lillie responded with a face like Siona’s bell and laughed like a fox cub rolling around in the snow.

“Oh, I guess so. I asked something pointless.”

Calian, who showed a shy smile, looked to the side.

Another ‘Calian’ with the same face as if looking in a mirror frowned. Before any words could come out of his mouth, Calian spoke first.

“You shouldn’t be so impressed with that pretty face.”

“…… you.”

“You can’t use such harsh words like stupid with that pretty mouth.”

My brother has such a beautiful face and mouth that he furrows his eyebrows at the slightest hint and treats everything in the world as if it were his children, choosing only the pretty words that are pleasant to hear.

“Ha……”

There are a lot of things I want to say, but thanks to Lillie, ‘Kalian’ can’t even hand them to me, but it’s a lie that I’m worried about whether it’s really okay if there are two such pretty people in the world, even if it’s only for a moment. Looking at my younger brother who couldn’t do anything, I let out a long sigh.

Rashid and Gray and whatnot.

I guess that guy just finds this situation fun.

okay. I was wrong in expressing my opinion.

“So which one is going where?”

Demirea, who lifted Lirie, who seemed to have difficulty raising her head, and hugged her, asked this.

“To the Marquis Briesen’s residence.”

“On Rashid Briesen’s side.”

The two Kalians answered together.

Demirea, who was looking at the two in turn, nodded as if she had completed the final inspection. Then he pointed to his mouth and spoke to one of the two Kalyans.

“There is no difference in appearance. You already know Prince Calian’s actions, gait, and way of speaking. As long as you smile well, you won’t have to worry about being caught.”

“It’s okay, Demirea. You smile surprisingly well.”

“Is that so.”

“Yes. Lord Hertz said that he smiles brightly at least three times a day.”

Demirea, who had no idea why Plantz was smiling and had no great curiosity, just nodded. And Lily had the dangerous thought of wanting to see Plantz smile like that as soon as possible.

“Now that I think about it, Arianne isn’t there… Are you going back today?”

“Yes. I would like to see Lord Castrin meet after I return, but since my father is not in the mansion and only my mother and Lord Bern are there, it would be better to go back.”

“Yes. Anyway, I think we’ll talk more about other things than sparring today. If I have a chance to get along properly with Lord Castrin again, I’ll call you then.”

“All right.”

Soon Calian bowed slightly. After that, he made eye contact with Lyrie, who was in Demirea’s arms, and opened his mouth.

“We’ll have to go to sleep later, Lirie.”

“Yes. I will.”

“I’ll play better next time you come. Let’s talk more.”

“Yes, my prince.”

Lillie smiled brightly as she nodded and answered.

A child’s smile is simply adorable, so Calian unconsciously raised his hand and carefully stroked Lyrie’s head.

Wasn’t it Riri who even gave Kalian delicious cookies to let her know that she wasn’t afraid of him? I will continue to meet Lyrie like that in the future, and when she grows up a little more, I will have to teach her Brisen’s swordsmanship, but I can’t keep being awkward forever.

“Ah…”

Another Calian, who was listening to the conversation, made a small noise.

This is because he has now realized that the fact that he went to Senyu Pavilion and stopped Calian’s plan not only left long cuts on Calian’s palms, but also resulted in Lirie canceling her plan to sleep at the palace.

“Liri.”

‘Calian’, who called out to Lyrie in a low and awkward voice, reached out for the red cloak he had taken off next to him. Then, he picked up what had been placed neatly on the cloak and placed it in Riri’s hand.

A brooch studded with sparkling black gems. Calian had given his red cloak to Plantz when he wrapped it around it.

Lyrie, who had no idea what the brooch on her palm was or what kind of jewel it was, asked ‘Calian’.

“What is this, my lord?”

“A gift. Because I disappointed you.”

“I’m saying this is a gift I’m giving you as an apology for disappointing you by not being here longer.”

Brother, are you returning gifts again?

Did you give a black diamond brooch to a young child? No, do you think that is a suitable gift for a child under the age of ten? Don’t you know that it would be better to make a pinwheel somewhere and hand it to the kids? I wonder if you know what a pinwheel is, but anyway, brother, your gift is truly unique to you.

Kalyan, who was thinking of scolding her like this, couldn’t bear to say harsh words to that pretty face, so he explained in short. Then, he stroked Lillie’s head again and continued speaking.

“It’s a gem called a black diamond. Actually, most of them have a lot of flaws, so people don’t like them that much. Still, Riri. Even among the black diamonds, there are pretty ones like this one. It’s much harder to find than the clear and sparkling common diamonds, but it’s that much more precious. . As you.”

Just as peas and lilies were born in that Brice.

Lyrie, who would be able to fully understand Kalian’s words only after she grew up a bit, smiled prettily. Not because it was valuable or precious, but because I was excited to receive a gift from Plants. And it was so nice to hear Calian’s voice reaching out to him. It’s still as sweet as the day I told you to think of everything you’re seeing as a dream.

Calian smiled brightly, ignoring the other Calian’s gaze that seemed to say, ‘Are you criticizing me because the diamonds on the cuffs you replaced with yours are common?’

“So, keep it well.”

“Yes, my prince. Thank you. I appreciate it. Today was fun. I wasn’t disappointed.”

Lillie bowed her head after receiving the hard jewel that would never be stained by anything else.

“okay.”

‘Calian’ nodded and smiled slightly.

“then.”

“I’ll go first.”

Soon the two Kalians went their separate ways. One would set off straight for Gray Briesen’s residence, and the other would wait a while before going to see Rashid Briesen.

After the two left like that.

Demirea left the Luvia pavilion with Lirie in her arms.

“Isn’t it cold?”

Demirea asked this while walking slowly to the carriage. Lyrie, who looked a little sleepy rather than cold, answered by gently rubbing her eyes with the hand that was not holding the brooch.

“Yeah. It’s not cold at all.”

Beat, beat, beat.

Demirea’s footsteps followed.

“Did you ask me whether a knight or a wizard would be better?”

“Yes. I asked.”

“What did you say?”

A black brooch that sparkles in the moonlight. Lirie looked into the moon inside and smiled brightly like moonlight.

“He told me to be a good adult.”

When asked whether a sword or magic would be better, he gave an odd answer.

It’s just as Calian said. Plantz gave an answer that was of little help in resolving Riri’s concerns.

Demirea smiled and looked at Lyrie, who rested her chin on her shoulder. Instead of a face, I could see a yellow ribbon neatly tied on dark green hair.

“I tied my hair back.”

I personally tied up the messy hair of Lucy, Anne, and Coco while playing with them, but now that I look at it, the shape of the ribbon has changed. Thanks to my poor workmanship, no matter how many times I tied it, it was twisted vertically and one of the tails became longer, so I ended up tying the ribbon properly, but before I knew it, it was tied nicely.

“huh.”

Lirie nodded and let out a voice full of laughter.

“He tied me up.”

“You? The ribbon?”

“Yes. I heard you tried tying a lot of Coco ribbons with Lucy and Anne.”

A small laugh came from Demirea’s mouth.

Lillie asked as she touched the ribbon Plants said she had tied.

“Dmirea. Am I a good adult?”

“no.”

“Aren’t you a good adult?”

“He is someone who will become a good adult.”

“Then what about Prince Calian?”

“Prince Calian… is a good adult.”

The sound of a person’s feet walking down the gravel road lingered.

Two long shadows descended.

“It’s difficult, Demirea.”

“You’ll find out when you grow up.”

“As much as Demirea?”

“Any amount.”

For a long time.

* * *

As if he had never shown such resistance.

Red eyes filled with a beautiful smile shined brightly.

“I’m feeling a little stuffy after working so hard to fix the fence. Would you like to walk for a bit? I’ll escort the Baron to the front gate.”

“Yes, my prince. It is an honor.”

I had already been listening to the sound of water from the fountain for a long time. Therefore, Rashid nodded without refusal and approached Kalian.

A night filled with darkness like a black curtain.

In between them, the sound of the two people’s footsteps continued quietly.

“Have you fixed the fence already?”

“The Baron tried so hard to inform me, but I wasted my time. I can’t confidently say that he’s completely calmed down, but it seems like he’s healed enough to catch his breath for a while.”

“That’s a welcome message.”

“Is that what you think?”

“Is there any question? I’m glad and glad to hear that you’ve stopped snakes from coming in.”

Calian smiled quietly.

“You say it’s a fortunate and welcome thing… but why does it sound like a regret to my ears when you ask if it’s already been fixed?”

“The mouth through which I speak is mine, and the ears through which I speak are the prince’s, so isn’t it inevitable that my words will be received as intended?”

“Is that all?”

“That’s it.”

They say it sounds that way because you are twisting my words, but what can I do? As a person, I tend to choose only what I want to see and listen to only what I want to hear. Therefore, Calian nodded without refutation and opened his mouth again.

“Did you have a nice conversation with Brother Randel?”

“We had a good conversation. However, I don’t know if it was fun.”

“Was there something the Baron

didn’t know?” “No matter how much I am, there’s nothing I don’t know.”

Rashid answered and looked at Calian.

“It’s as if I still haven’t fully confirmed Prince Calian’s true intentions. “That’s

my true intention.”

Four knights passing by on the street saluted Calian.

Nodding and passing them, Calian reopened his slightly closed mouth and continued.

“I thought I had put all my true feelings out there . .”

Hearing this, Rashid took out an emerald brooch from his pocket. Kalian, who was facing him in front of Senyu Pavilion, had broken it and handed it to him. “Are you talking about

this brooch?”

Kalian smiled slightly and corrected Rashid’s words.

“That emerald. It would be correct to say that.”

“If you have to distinguish it, it would be better to call it an emerald broken into pieces, prince.” ”

Like Brisen of the not-too-distant future.”

Calian turned his head.

The red lips of the person looking directly at Rashid were beautiful. It moved.

“… If I add that. It seems to be more accurate.”

“That means.”

“I am.” Kalian

‘s

footsteps were unusually loud.

“I think so. What do you think, Baron?”

A voice that was much quieter than the sound of the footsteps, but was so straight that it could not have been any clearer, was addressed to Rashid. Rashid, with an expression of surprise on his face, not sure if it was true or not, answered. “This is what I asked in one go

. I didn’t expect you to show your true intentions so easily.”

“I am a person who swallowed even more poison than that in order to ward off the poisonous tea that comes every morning. Wouldn’t it be better to bring it out and display it first, rather than suppressing it, hiding it, and watching what others think? Besides, anyway… I don’t know if what I said is true or not, but the Baron will take it as he wants. “The mouth that speaks is mine, and the ears that speak are the baron’s.”

Rashid let out a small laugh.

Calian stopped for a moment.

He opened his mouth quietly as he looked at the main gate of the palace, which was neither near nor far.

“Even if our expectations are different ends. Until that day soon, I wonder if the Baron’s and my steps will overlap for a moment. That’s what I’m thinking. How is it. Baron.”

“Then, Crown Prince Planz.”

Instead of answering, Rashid opened his mouth like this and turned his head.

“I wonder if this is a suitable person or not. Would it be okay if I ask more about what the prince thinks?” I

asked whether Planz would belong to the Vriesen that Calian said he would destroy as soon as possible. I asked him that. “I told you so.

”

Calian faced Rashid.

A green light was directed at him. Without taking his eyes off me, I answered,

“What is my weakness?”

“… Yes. “You said that.”

“That would be the answer. “To the Baron.”

“Then, the prince and I will certainly have similar desires, but the ends will certainly be different.” ”

At the end the Baron hopes for, the two brothers will be there, but I will not be together, so the ends we each hope for will be similar, but different.”

” Oh my… did he know that too?”

“How could he not know? “They’re trying to give Randel a tower, an abyss for you, and a nightmare for me.”

Rashid nodded willingly.

“Yes. It is the same that Crown Prince Planz must remain until that day, but the person to be placed next to him is different. It can’t be the same ending that the prince and I hoped for.”

Rashid turned for a moment.

He looked at the path we walked together while talking to here in front of Chermil Palace.

Then tap tap tap.

Rashid smiled as he tapped the emerald brooch with the tip of his finger. He laughed.

“Still, until we are divided like that, it will be one path, prince. “Do you think it would be okay if I think like that and start walking?”

“I said I would walk like this for a while. It eased my worries.”

The same tap, tap.

Tap on the floor with the tip of his toe. Calian smiled brightly.

* * *

The person’s red eyes frowned as he looked down at the warm tea cup.

“You don’t have to show off like this. The way he entertains guests is also very Brisen-like.” The

owner of the house, who had a somewhat gaunt complexion due to not being able to eat, drink and rest properly, and the butler who had been called by the owner and had to prepare tea for the unexpected guest had quite similar faces.

It was said that he was showing his irritation.

Either way, Kalian, with his eyes fixed on the white teacup decorated with silver rim, spoke in a sweet voice. “I am

someone who has not yet forgotten the poison I drank in the coffee, so please bring it back.”

Soon, Kalian . Anne rested her beautiful back against the luxurious leather chair. She then leisurely looked around the living room, which she had already seen once but had not been able to properly see.

Gray, who was watching her, opened her mouth.

“It will take some time to bring the tea back .” Won’t it take?”

“Does it have to take long enough for it to be considered that poison was put in it?”

“That’s not it…”

“Your son is still in the palace. “I’ll finish the conversation before I come back, so don’t bother me.”

Kalian came to the bedroom and said hello, then walked out as if he had nothing to hide and headed toward the living room. Without any time to stop him, he walked into the living room and took a seat, looking at Kalian. What could Gray have done? He had no choice but to call the head butler again and have him bring tea.

Gray, who could not guess the intention of refusing the coffee that was served and insisting that he bring another tea, responded with a long silence. I protested.

– Clap.

Not long after, the head butler re-entered the parlor and set down the black tea, which had a light color and scent. Likewise, it was a teacup with a silver rim. After carefully putting down the silver spoon, the head butler quietly walked out of the parlor. – Clink

. .

Calian moved his white and beautiful hand, lifted an unnecessary spoon, and stirred the black tea. He then took out the spoon again and began to rotate it around to see if there was any change in color. Even if he had put poison in it, it was still Brisen

. Esau had been using only poisons that did not react to silver for a long time. Gray as well as Calian knew well that even if such a poison had been used, it would be of no use to the current Calian. Nevertheless, Gray, who was filled with anger at being watched so carefully, opened his mouth. ”

I I know who will benefit if I harm the prince now. It’s not that stupid, so stop.”

“That’s surprising. I never thought you would think that much.”

Gray, who had put his frowning eyes back in place again, looked at Calian. Calian, who was still not paying any attention to that appearance, opened his mouth. “Well

. That’s why I kept him alive for a while.”

Calian brought the teacup to his mouth. Then, he drank the tea with a nonchalant expression, as if he had forgotten that he had looked at the teacup with such suspicious eyes, and put it down. “Prince.” “Talk to

me

. I’m listening.”

“What did you say to me a little while ago?”

Calian, who was smiling leisurely as if he liked the scent of the tea, widened his eyes.

“I gave you this long time to think about it. Didn’t you even understand the question, let alone give an answer?”

That’s why they are Brisennes.

Calian, who put down his self-talk, not knowing whether to listen or ignore it, looked at Gray.

“Your son is not good at making sense of the world, so my plan continues. Isn’t it becoming distorted? So, after thinking about it for a while, I came to a realization.”

Calian, who was staring at Gray, turned his head slightly. He lowered his eyes with a slanted face and made an expression that did not know whether he was looking down at the tea or at his own thoughts. He spoke in a low voice.

“There is no need for two people to take charge of this position until I get rid of Brisen.” “

The moment the prince points his sword at me or one of my sons, the remaining Have you ever thought that someone might be after the prince?”

“Yes. It did. If I get rid of Baron Brissen, you will accuse me of being the culprit, and if I completely break your back, Baron Brissen will accuse me of being the culprit. I was afraid of that, so I held back until now.”

What should I hide?

Kalian, who shared his honest feelings, let out a laugh.

“That’s why my thoughts were so short. I have finally reflected on this.”

Gray frowned for a moment.

Calian continued.

“Is there any need for me to step forward? If you take up the sword and I can help you.”

“What

you are saying is…” “This is the child you gave to the world, so you take

it back . ” “Prince.”

Don’t go looking for it. If your son also rejects my words, I will have no choice but to bide my time and take care of myself.”

Click.

The fragrant tea once again entered Kalian’s mouth. Poison flowed out of his mouth after swallowing the incense.

“. ….. Indeed.”

Will your son also reject my words?

A beautiful smile full of such meaning appeared on Calian’s lips.

Gray, who had been looking at those lips for a while, raised his eyes.

“You are asking a question that doesn’t even seem like a question . “Do you?”

he said, looking into Calian’s red eyes.

Calian closed his eyes for a moment and answered quietly,

“I. Did you do that?”

Gray, who was looking at Calian’s red eyes without avoiding them, nodded. Then he opened his mouth with a very elegant smile. “Even things that require an answer are

called questions, prince. So, why do you need to take two unnecessary steps?”

There is no need to answer.

There is no need to take another step and go find Rashid.

“Yes. There’s no need to take two steps.”

“That’s right.”

Calian smiled like a flower, his bright red lips curling up a little more. After that, he put down his third sip of tea and stood up. “Just in case, I’ll face

my brother . “If you hit me.”

“I haven’t seen Prince Calian since I escorted him to the palace after he was attacked by a gunman, so I should at least ask how he is doing.” “Yes

. Those are good words to hear.”

Calian soon took a step forward.

Calian walked to the front of the living room door and turned his head. He looked at Gray, who was standing far away, and said his last words.

“I’ll see you again soon.”

But then.

– Dalcak .

As if in response to Calian’s words.

The door to the drawing room opened.

Calian’s head, which had been facing Gray, turned forward again.

“… Prince Calian.”

The person who opened the parlor door and entered recognized Calian. He lowered his head. Like a habit, he showed respect as always.

The face he lifted after saying hello was a little stiff.

It was as if he really liked the look on his face for the first time.

“I see you again, Baron.”

Calian smiled brightly. .
