Reborn as the Enemy Prince

Chapter 12. Living (3)

A dazzling light enveloped the cavity.

Even though it was morning, the light was bright enough to see it even from the city of Citren, two days away.

The people who watched Kalian enter the cavity could not hide their surprise. A phenomenon that has never occurred before has appeared.

It was definitely not an ominous light.

However, it was difficult for the party waiting for Calian at the foot of the rocky mountain to completely relax.

Because of this, Jan was restless and just staring at the common entrance. Someone walked silently towards Yan. Then he spoke while roughly stroking Jan’s curly hair.

“Are you that worried about your little boy?”

It was a place where there were many knights.

Are they just knights? It was a place where people from Calian, including Arsene, were present. Of course, the only person who could call Calian that way in an event like this was Slayman.

Yan, who was clutching his unruly hair, looked at Slayman in surprise. Because it was too early for him to arrive.

“I heard you’re going on an inspection?”

The western sector that Slayman had to check was half a day away. Even if you leave the night before, you won’t have enough time to finish the inspection and come back already.

Slayman, who received Jan’s question, stepped slightly to the side and answered.

“I was lucky enough to meet a nice customer and came quickly.”

At those words, Yan turned his head and looked at the people who were hidden by Slayman’s huge body. And his face was several times more surprised than when he saw Slayman.

There were two people standing there whom Jan had never met. However, when Yan saw a girl who seemed to be his age, he immediately guessed who it was.

“My name is Veronica Manasil.”

The hair becomes increasingly red as it goes down.

She was the granddaughter of Allan Manasil.

In the silence, the sound of blades of grass passing by.

The smell of grass, which wasn’t that great, filled the air.

The place where Calian was currently standing was a small field on a hill. There was nothing around. Neither land nor sea was visible. It was a place that felt like an island lying beneath the sky. That’s why Calian doesn’t know if this is the right place for Kairis. I couldn’t guess whether it would be a no-man’s land.

– Meet the extremely great Sispanian.

Sispanian, who received Calian’s greeting, did not respond.

Instead, it calmed down the magic that seemed to be eating up all the air around me and the fear that made me forget to even breathe.

The intimidation I felt when I first encountered Sispanian disappeared even further.

Calian, who felt that he was clearly more comfortable dealing with Sispanian, lowered his head for a moment.

Sispanian, who was looking at Calian, turned back without saying a word.

And then I walked slowly to the edge of the field. Her long black hair continued to sway back and forth in the wind.

Suddenly, Sispanian’s voice reached Calian’s ears.

“I wondered what was going on because a child who shouldn’t exist in the world was looking for me.”

I wondered how Calian, who was already destined to die, ended up here.

“I wondered what was going on because I had memories of living in a different time.”

I wanted to find out why Calian had Bern’s memories.

“I wondered what would happen since I had sharpened my blessing into a sword.”

He wanted to know why Calian’s magical power contained in the heart that Sispanian blessed was different from others.

Sispanian, who was still standing at the edge of the field and following in the distance, turned his head and looked at Calian. A mysterious voice that seemed to be speaking right next to me was heard again.

“So I called you.”

Only then did Calian understand why Sispanian appeared in front of Calian in his true spirit and not by will.

Sispanian is now saying that he decided to meet Calian in person out of curiosity.

‘Are you saying that Randel and Planz have never met the true Sispanians?’

Should I say that I am lucky that this special meeting took place?

Calian smiled bitterly for a moment.

Soon Sispanian took a step toward Calian. Then, before I knew it, he came and stood right in front of Calian.

The movement was so natural.

Thanks to this, Calian was not surprised that Sispanian suddenly appeared right in front of him.

Sispanian, standing facing Calian, said.

“I’ll see.”

There was no explanation as to what was meant to be seen.

Sispanian, who only said that, looked at Calian’s eyes, which were similar to his own, for a long time. After that, he sometimes nodded, sighed, and smiled slightly.

‘It’s like looking at my memories.’

It was just as Calian had guessed.

Sispanian was observing Calian’s life directly.

Calian might have been offended by the way he searched through his memories without asking for any understanding, but he was surprisingly calm. In the first place, Sispanian was not someone who needed to ask for someone’s understanding, and there was no need to hide what he had experienced from Sispanian.

Time passed like that again.

Sispanian said, taking his eyes off Calian.

“I understand.”

One short word.

I wasn’t even surprised or even suspicious that Bern had come back to life. The reaction was as if it was okay because they knew what had happened. Calian smiled languidly without realizing it.

But Sispanian’s words were not over.

“They ended up overdoing it.”

Sispanian closed his eyes for a moment and spoke as if reciting.

okay.

Sispanian certainly said so.

But those words did not reach Calian.

Even though I said it right before, I couldn’t hear it. Calian saw Sispanian licking his lips, but he couldn’t understand what he was saying at all. Even the shape of that mouth didn’t remain in my mind.

Sispanian frowned for a moment when he saw Calian’s face filled with questions due to the difficult-to-understand situation. And then he explained what just happened.

“You cannot hear me. It is because she does not want to.”

It is said that a ban was placed on Calian to prevent him from listening to Sispanian. I didn’t have to think long about who Sispanian meant by ‘her’. Calian, who had not said a single word yet, opened his mouth without realizing it.

“Are you talking about Serenti?”

“That’s what it’s called.”

If not Serenti, who in this world would dare impose restrictions on Sispanian’s speech?

As I thought about it, a sudden curiosity arose.

“It is said that Serenti fell asleep during the process of sealing the evil spirit. But how can they stop you from speaking?”

This is because it was difficult to understand that the sleeping Serenti appeared in a timely manner as if she was still active and silenced Sispanian.

Then Sispanian responded as if it was no big deal.

“Will your existence be obscured by falling asleep?”

“Are you saying that even if I’m not awake, I can cover up what you say?”

“Even I am here with my will left behind.”

Sispanian’s words were a little strange.

Just as Serenti left behind her will and fell into sleep, doesn’t that mean that Sispanian also came ‘here’, leaving behind her will?

Calian asked again.

“Then where is this place?”

“It is a place where human feet cannot reach.”

It wasn’t an answer I could understand properly.

In fact, it didn’t seem like the answer was meant to be understood. Because it sounded like they had no intention of telling me anything. Therefore, Calian simply nodded and showed that he understood roughly. What mattered to Calian now was not where Sispanian was.

Soon Calian took out something he had brought with him when he came here. It was a black pebble that the elf Luca had stolen from someone. Sispanian saw that and held out his hand.

Sispanian, who was looking at the stone handed to him by Calian, frowned once again and opened his mouth.

“They made it.”

This too was not heard.

Sispanian, knowing that Calian did not hear what he said, returned the pebble and spoke again.

“Keep it with you. You will find out when the time comes.”

After hearing those words, Calian noticed that Serenti was forbidden. It seemed that Sispanian could not go against Serenti’s will, so this time Calian only nodded.

Of course, Calian, who had no intention of letting go of all his curiosity, took a moment to choose his words. The real purpose of taking such a long time to visit Sispanian under the pretext of a coming-of-age ceremony was to bring up what I really wanted to find out.

“You’re a child with a lot of questions.”

When Calian’s questions showed no sign of ending, Sispanian said this. Fortunately, I didn’t say this because I was bothered by the constant barrage of questions.

For some reason, Calian thought that Sispanian, who had said that, was smiling. Thanks to this, I asked a question feeling a little more at ease.

“There was something called the axis of time in Secretia.”

“Know.”

Sispanian let out a low sigh.

That sigh was very different from what I saw when I searched Calian’s memories a little while ago. It feels like a deep sigh.

So Calian, who had forgotten to ask a question, suddenly came to his senses and asked.

“I want to know why you wanted the axis of time in Kairis.”

After hearing those words, Sispanian opened his mouth again, but this time it was banned. This time, no voice came out at all. Serenti blocks Sispanian’s words even more strongly than before.

Sispanian again answered with different words.

“She doesn’t want you to be impatient. She’s worried that you might find out about the circumstances behind your death prematurely and ruin the future. So don’t be discouraged.”

Calian’s eyes lit up at those words.

“I was not disappointed.”

It wasn’t a lie.

Calian was not disappointed.

This is because I learned something from the continued ban on Cispanians.

“You’re saying that something happened to the point where Serenti personally stepped forward to prevent it from becoming known.”

God’s intervention.

Isn’t the board bigger than you think?

It also meant that coming back 10 years in time and coming to Kairis, who destroyed Secretia, was by no means meaningless. Sispanian looked at Calian with interest for a moment and answered.

“You are right.”

Calian closed his mouth for a moment, lost in thought. And soon Calian’s voice came out carefully.

“I would like to ask one last question.”

“I will listen.”

Even though permission was given right away, Calian was unable to open his mouth hastily.

Calian asked with a face that clearly showed hesitation.

“Is it true that you used the axis of time to revive me?”

A genuine smile appeared on Sispanian’s lips. It didn’t just give the impression that he was smiling, he was actually smiling. It seemed like a smile that Sispanian would make while reprimanding Calian.

Sispanian responded with a smile that could not be wiped off his face.

“Your thoughts are not deep. You will find out about that too.”

“It wasn’t the one you used.”

Those words alone were already a sufficient answer. But Sispanian dared to open his mouth once more.

“Before I am your brother, I am a king. “Is your brother so foolish that he goes against the grain and puts you first?”

It was a clear rebuke.
