Reborn as the Enemy Prince - Chapter 419

Chapter 74. The other end (6)

There are things that are natural to some but not to others.

There are some things that we take for granted now, but that weren’t the case at first.

‘Rashid Briesen looks like me.’

‘at all.’

‘That’s the way I see it. But I don’t know much about Rashid Brissen. On the other hand, he knows quite a lot about me.’

‘He could be hiding the same thing as Evan.’

‘You mean an Auror. ‘I hid my path to the sword.’

‘okay.’

‘yes. Rashid Briesen has already joined the Sword Path and has more Aurors than me, so I didn’t notice. We are considering that possibility as well. So I’m trying to find out exactly what he might have been hiding.’

‘Are you saying that you will secretly join a wizard?’

‘I got caught. I said I looked into Lord Hertz’s stealth magic, but that doesn’t work. I think I will personally approach Rashid Brissen as someone he would not suspect.’

‘who.’

‘White repair. It’s him.’

‘It would be impossible.’

‘It’s not impossible. It won’t be very fun.’

‘how.’

‘Because I wasn’t there either. ‘At the end.’

‘…… if. I.’

‘No matter what, there’s no way you would have had the ability to cut off my arm. I was in a state where I couldn’t sleep or eat for a few days, got hit by a lot of arrows, no one knew if I was alive or dead, and I didn’t know either, but I wasn’t in such a mess that I would give my arm to someone as weak as my brother.’

‘You are bitter.’

‘It’s better to tell the truth than to wither again for no reason.’

‘Don’t use that excuse to bark.’

‘…… yes. Anyway, I thought you would have seen that too. When he was called to Danu. ‘Didn’t you know?’

‘I told you not to watch it alone first.’

‘So you didn’t look at it properly?’

‘I didn’t see it.’

‘You did well. It makes me proud to see people listen to me well, even if only occasionally. It’s worth raising it.’

‘He said it was a cat. ‘Is it nature to bark?’

‘I heard it looks like a desert dog. I guess it’s nature.’

‘If you look at it again and find that we don’t look alike. ‘Don’t you bark?’

‘Even if you say no now, it will continue to bark. ‘Because it’s nature.’

‘… Just keep talking.’

‘yes. Anyway, I’m thinking of changing my appearance into a white suri and going there. What do you think?’

‘Are you trying to go out and walk around like that person?’

‘no. For now, I was planning to go to the marquis’ residence in my own person. I’m going to check whether the relationship between the two is really bad and make Marquis Briesen be wary of everyone.’

‘then. That disguise tool. ‘How about writing one more time now?’

‘Are you talking about disguise?’

‘I understand that you can hide your auror.’

‘there is. I was planning to hide it once it turns into a white eagle.’

‘therefore. Disguise and hide as an auror. Let’s do it now.’

‘What way do you mean?’

‘Like, my brother and I meet Rashid Briesen at the same time.’

‘Are you saying you’re going to disguise yourself as me?’

‘okay.’

‘Brother, can you follow me?’

‘there is.’

‘I didn’t know you were that interested in me. I feel proud again.’

‘I didn’t know you would bark this hard. ‘Annoy me again.’

‘I was meeting normal nobles in a normal palace, but two of my normal palms got split straight apart. ‘Because it hurts, I have to bark hard.’

‘Sorry. that.’

‘I’ll accept your apology if you say you won’t do it again.’

‘Okay, so.’

‘yes. Anyway, then. If you do as you said, if he shows that he recognizes the fake, it will mean that he has more Aurors than me. Even if I don’t show it, I will get the results I wanted.’

‘okay.’

‘More than anything… it’ll be fun.’

‘It will be fun.’

‘I will meet Rashid Briesen. ‘I will ask my master to ask you to go to the Marquis Briesen’s residence.’

‘not. on the other way. ‘I can tell when you’re hiding your surprise.’

‘but. older brother.’

‘What I said was my responsibility. ‘Have you forgotten?’

‘I’m afraid I’ll wither again while taking care of my brother’s share.’

‘What on earth does my brother think of me?’

‘It’s a green, round thing that wilts quickly and gets very thin.’

‘you. also.’

‘That’s exactly what you’re thinking of right now.’

‘…… hey.’

‘I’m just saying I’m worried. ‘Brother.’

‘I’m saying it’s okay. Thanks to the fence my brother repaired so well.’

‘But… yes. All right.’

This happened after a long and peaceful conversation.

Plantz, disguised as Calian, met Rashid Briesen, and in the end, Calian, who could not overcome his stubbornness, went to the residence of Marquess Gray Briesen.

While thinking about that conversation for a moment, Randel organized and understood Calian’s words and opened his mouth.

“You made Marquis Gray Brissen think that you had something else in mind so that he could hastily gather his forces. Isn’t it because you wanted Rashid Brissen to be mistaken that you used a disguise for that purpose?”

“you’re right.”

Communication bracelets were scattered on the floor as the arm they were wearing disappeared. Calian answered, picking it up and putting it back on. And he added a more detailed explanation of the things Randel did not know about that he had just said to Plantz.

“Rashid Brissen’s subordinate, the White Eagle, turned into a one-armed knight I knew and came to me. After that, I killed the White Eagle, but Rashid Brissen doesn’t know that he is dead.”

“okay.”

“That’s why I’m thinking of disguising myself as a guy. They’ll probably think that I won’t disguise myself again. Especially if I’m a one-armed swordsman.”

Calian disappeared for a moment and then reappeared and tapped my left arm. Randel, who was looking at the fingertips, said.

“I understand that.”

“yes.”

“But I don’t know.”

“What do you mean?”

Randel quietly turned his head. Then I looked at Planz and then back at Calian.

“You sometimes talk as if you know the future.”

“I know a little bit.”

“And that stranger. The King of Secretia. You look like him.”

“… This is my older brother. My brother.”

“But the King of Secretia doesn’t have a younger brother.”

“It may be difficult for you to believe, but I lived as Chase’s younger brother for 26 years. Then I died, and I went back 10 years and am now. The person I was in the past has become a non-existent person in this life.”

“The King of Secretia once warned me about you. He probably knows about you too.”

“you’re right.”

“But you still didn’t follow him back.”

“Yes. I didn’t go.”

“If you used that disguise, you could have lived in a different form, so why didn’t you do that? Why did you stay here? Why did you go to such lengths to help us? I wonder about that.”

“…… that.”

Calian, unable to find an appropriate answer to Randel’s words, kept his mouth shut. This is because it was difficult to tell the reason. Isn’t there a party of its own here?

When there was no answer for a while, Randel looked at Calian.

“that.”

On behalf of Calian, Plantz spoke up.

“It is said that the new king of Kairis started a war. He died because of that war, and Secretia was also destroyed because of it. In order to prevent that, I decided to stay here instead of leaving.”

“If it’s the new king.”

“Yes, it is me.”

“The third one somehow managed to leave you alone.”

“Are you sorry?”

“More or less.”

“Do you think I’m the only one who managed to leave it alone?”

“No.”

“The day Calian first came here, I called in and stopped him from threatening to kill his brother.”

“You must be regretting having to stop it like that.”

“More or less.”

That’s right. Serenity.

Why am I here talking about how pretty they are?

“Please stop. Before I end up feeling sorry too.”

Why am I suffering here, leaving my good brother behind?

If you know it, I might actually have a lot of patience. After thinking about this for a while, Kalian spoke out and conveyed his thoughts beautifully.

“It’s just like you said. First, to stop it. Then, to save it. And now… I’m living. I didn’t go.”

“I came to live because I saved. Is that your answer?”

“Now that we have changed the ending, we have an obligation to create a better ending and show it to others.”

Plantz, who had a slightly more accurate understanding than Randel of who he should show it to, looked at Calian. This is because he understood that it was the answer to what he had said.

‘On the path my mother worked so hard to walk. ‘Is there another end… other than that?’

A different ending that wasn’t known to Plants that day.

The end of the path that Silike worked so hard to walk. Calian, who was thinking about that, touched the pink soles of Lucy’s sleeping feet and continued. He spoke of the ‘determined ending’ that he knew.

“Knights wearing gray armor. Wizards wearing pure white robes. I remember my brother standing with them together.”

A smile appeared on Calian’s lips.

Of course, I didn’t smile because I remembered what that day was like. This was because Lucy, who hated having the soles of her feet touched, slapped Calian’s hand with her white, cotton-like paw even though she was asleep.

“Rather than that, isn’t it better to spend your time taking care of a gray cat and a white cat like this? Rather than being forced to be called to Tensil’s royal palace, which is no different from a tower, and act as someone’s puppet, you said you would take the rose I gave you and raise it there. It’s better now.”

This is something that Plantz takes for granted, but Randel does not.

This was something that was not natural to today’s Plants from the beginning.

Kalian lives here, even accepting the role of Rashid’s one-armed subordinate, willing to save the lives of two brothers who may be strangers. Now the reason has become new again and I have explained it again.

“I’ll send you off to Tensil, Brother Randel. Let’s build a new residence for the Marquis of Briesen so you can live in it. Then there won’t be a war.”

“You said you were going to get rid of Briesen. Are you saying you would place a second son on the marquisate?”

“no.”

Calian pointed to his chest and smiled.

“You know, Brother Randel wasn’t the only one who tied up my heart arbitrarily. I was worried that the seal of oath you made would go wrong, so I made a contract with you too.”

“The second one had one more seal of oath.”

“Yes. Did you know?”

Plantz frowned.

This is because Randel noticed when he learned of another seal bound to Plantz’s heart.

The oath seal tied to Calian, as well as the healing powers of Hina and Randel, played a big role in prolonging Plantz’s life until Evan was eliminated. I must have been in a happy mood because I was thinking about the day I unintentionally received help from Randel.

Unlike Plantz, Kalian, who had no regrets over the fact that Randel had saved his brother, nodded.

“The Marquis of Briesen is tied to the conditions of the oath. So, to be precise, it is not a marquis, but a marquis.”

– When Plants leaves the palace, he lives at the residence of the Marquis of Briesen in Kairisis, raising cats.

– Kalian works hard to help.

“If Briesen disappears completely, the marquess title will disappear or the family name will change, and if that happens, the name Marquis Briesen will have no meaning, so it won’t matter where you live, but I’m just curious. I’ll build a new house on the site of the marquis’ house that was completely burned by my brother. “I want to let you live there.”

“It won’t be easy.”

“It’s okay. He’s a very capable person. I’m confident that I can let Brother Randel live comfortably growing roses, but wouldn’t it be difficult to have a brother in the capital? Anyway, if I want to keep my brother’s heart healthy after working hard to heal, I have no choice but to stay there. He is good at raising cats. ……”

Calian gently tapped Lucy’s head again.

“To the Archduke.”

Calian drank his tea with a very calm expression, as if he was just throwing out his grand ambitions that he had not yet told Plantz about.

Randel doesn’t care at all whether he’s sent to the tower, out of the capital, or even given the title of Grand Duke, and he keeps a smart pea by his side for the rest of his life, having lured him away with the expression that he will let him spend the rest of his long, quiet life holding a cat in his arms in peace and quiet. He pretended not to notice Plantz’s deep annoyance when he finally found out about his younger brother’s ambitious plan to take care of him.

* * *

Will anything be corrected over time?

In just a few days, more was restored than expected. The things that had been broken when Calian stepped on them were completely transformed. The endlessly deep holes in the forest have been filled, and young saplings have already been planted in place of frozen or burned trees.

“I guess you told me to put away all the magic lanterns too.”

The magic lanterns, which had been installed as if they would light up the entire forest path, had disappeared except for the one placed at the entrance to the forest. As I said this, wondering if I could just leave it as it was already installed, Kirie, who was nearby, gave a low answer.

“Don’t you know that the prince likes dark forests?”

“So you cleaned it up?”

“I guess that’s why you cleaned it up.”

“It’s good for me, but the wizards must have had a hard time.”

“Everyone was amazed and excited to see the traces of the battle, even though they had gone through a hard time. You don’t have to worry about that.”

“Crazy guys.”

Kirie laughed quietly at the honest reaction.

“You restored everything and left it here, brother.”

“Because you know it will break again anyway.”

As if they knew that if they planted something again, it would be dug up again, only the empty space in the middle of the forest in the distance had not been restored.

Isn’t that the case just today?

If the seedlings had been planted here, they would have had to be moved elsewhere in advance. If I had decided to cross swords with Teilan, I would not have been able to greet the morning with this place intact.

“Kiri.”

“Yes, my prince.”

“What about Aurors after that?”

“It hasn’t reappeared yet.”

Calian nodded, thought about something, and opened his mouth.

“My teacher was twenty-three and I was twenty-one. That’s how I entered the path of the sword.”

“Yes. You told me that before.”

“Actually, it was very fast. Neither Lord Siegfried nor Briesen’s blood could have been obtained that quickly.”

“Yes, that’s right.”

“But maybe you will pull it. I think my fiancé will pull it one more time after that.”

Jabak Jabak.

Kirie’s footsteps rang alone. However, Kalian’s voice continued as if to prove that he was not walking the path alone.

“Unfortunately, I will not be known as the fastest age because the age at which I enter the sword path has been pushed back. I will definitely be the fastest. This time.”

As it became known to the world that Calian took up the path of the sword, the earliest age at which he took up the path of the sword was recorded as fifteen. If Demirea ascends before she turns twenty, she will in fact ascend to the path of the sword faster than anyone else, but according to records, she will not be able to surpass Calian.

Kirie turned her head and asked in a voice that sounded pitiful.

“Didn’t the Duke of the past take the path of the sword?”

“Rather than saying I couldn’t do it, I guess I should say I didn’t do it. I think Demirea at that time couldn’t find a reason to become stronger for anything. That’s probably why she didn’t take the path of the sword. I think so.”

Aren’t Siegfried people who are strong because they protect them?

“Then, are you hoping that the Little Duke will take the path of the sword as soon as possible this time?”

“Of course. Dmirea, who prioritizes Jan, protects Lyrie, and continues Siegfried, is the only one who is greedy for the sword. Now she is doing that. It’s nice to see.”

After saying this, Kalian looked at Kyrie and added.

“So, I hope that both you and Dmirea can quickly climb up. Because I know that it is not the end of the goal, but the beginning. I know that both you and Dmirea will be really happy once you climb the path of the sword and realize that you can now hold the sword properly. I know that both you and Dmirea will be very happy. “I want to see your happy face as soon as possible, my fiancé.”

Kirie nodded as if she didn’t like the heavy burden, looked around, and said.

“I think it would have been better if you had also invited the Little Duke to this event. I doubt whether I will be able to see Lord Castrin and the prince sparring again.”

“We’ll see each other again. Not today.”

“Why are you saying it can’t be done?”

“I have something to check. It’s something that Demirea shouldn’t know about.”

Dmirea, Eila, and Planz.

He said he was trying to find out what no one except Kirie among those who handle swords should know.

“Is it okay for me to know such a thing?”

“Anything from you. Is there a need to hide it?”

Calian answered lightly, looked at one side of the forest, and opened his mouth.

“Anyway, Kirie.”

“yes.”

Kirie’s voice as she answered like this was no different from usual. Calian smiled slightly and turned his head because there was something that even his good ears couldn’t notice.

He spoke with narrowed eyes and a long smile on his lips.

“Stay back. Stay far away.”

As soon as those words were finished, the wind blew.

A wind of extreme ferocity blew. After that.

– Slut!

– Kagagak Kagaga River!

A sound that seemed to shatter the silence of the forest was heard.

It was only then that I saw Calian, who had jumped out to the distance and holding a sword, and Teilan, who was holding a sword blocked by Calian and smiling.

The two then continued their greetings.

“Are you sending me a sword without even a greeting, Lord Castrin?”

“There is no enemy in the world that attacks after sending a warning.”

Teilan, who clearly revealed where Calian’s habit of attacking first without saying anything came from, bit down on his sword.

– Ugh!

The red sword in Calian’s hand cried out for a long time.

The blue aura that wrapped around the red sword like the body of a snake coiling around the enemy’s entire body added to the sharp cries.

I hear a voice like the wind passing by my fingertips.

“long time no see.”

Kyrie looked at Calian’s sword, which was emitting an unfamiliar light.

Calian looked at Teylan’s eyes, which were a greenish color close to brown. Teilan looked into Calian’s blood-like eyes.

“Master.”

“…… okay.”

Teylan’s answer was relayed.

“I’m not looking forward to it.”

Calian smiled, pleased with those words that seemed to catch the wind.

“Yes. As much as you want.”

Coo….

The sound of heavy feet is heading towards Kalian.

The sound of the footsteps of someone who has forgotten the sound is heading towards Teilan.

– Kaaaaaaaa!

The reunion has begun.
