Reborn as the Enemy Prince

Chapter 16. I, to you (3)

Calian stood in place and quietly lowered his eyes.

Jan knew that Calian looked like this when he had a lot to think about. Besides, I knew very well why I was in such deep thought.

Therefore, Jan quietly waited for Calian to finish thinking.

The time spent standing in silence increased indefinitely.

Then, something that gave Calian deep thoughts moved again and made a sound.

“Welcome to the home of Archmage Alan Manasil!”

Kalian, who saw the stone statue dancing slowly and singing a lively song, covered its face with his palm.

I was holding back laughter.

Just now, Calian told Lemaine that he had a face-to-face encounter with Silike and that he needed to confirm that it seemed like Silike was behind Aisha’s death. He revealed to Lemain everything about joining hands with Plantz and how coldly he spoke to Plantz.

After hearing everything Calian said, Lemain replied that he had a lot to be sorry about.

Thanks to Lemain’s apology, I came all the way to Alan’s mansion feeling even more calm. This was because there were people to meet ‘outside’.

Then, the stone statue standing in front of the entrance to Alan’s mansion suddenly started dancing and singing.

“driving me crazy.”

When Kalian, who was barely holding back his laughter, said this, Jan, who had been holding back laughter to accommodate Kalian’s mood, twitched his lips and said.

“I said the same thing when I first saw this.”

“When did you come to Master’s house?”

In response to Kalian’s question, Jan looked around for a moment to see if anyone else was there.

Now they were outside the palace.

Since he had gone out secretly in Alan’s carriage, Jan was not even dressed as a servant.

So Jan became Siroian Siegfried for a moment and answered.

“It was the day someone drank poison because he didn’t like poisoned tea.”

Because I had accumulated more things about that day than anyone else.

Alan, who was next to him, nodded as if he deeply sympathized with Yan’s feelings, and Kirie, who was standing behind him, let out a small laugh.

Calian, who had been scolded by Alan, Arsene, and now Jan, blinked for a moment.

So time has passed again.

“Welcome to the home of Archmage Alan Manasil!”

In the end, Calian burst out laughing.

“Since you like it so much, I will place one in front of the prince’s room.”

“No, no. It’s okay, Master.”

Calian quickly waved his hand and took a step forward.

There were already a few people inside Alan’s house after barely entering.

Veronica was preparing lunch, and Melfir, who was also the chairman of the Fallun Magic Academy, and Euria, who was also the principal of the magic academy, were talking about the academy’s operation.

And right next to them, Arsene was doing Veronica’s magic academy homework.

“Out of gratitude, I said I would help you first, prince.”

Arsene, who was doing students’ homework next to the chairman and principal of the magic academy, gave an excuse-like explanation to Calian, the actual owner of the magic academy. Calian decided to only half believe what he said.

After the gathered people finished lunch together, Calian, Arsene, Melfir, and Euria sat around the table in the living room.

“I heard that everyone had a hard time while I was away.”

Calian, who went outside of Kairisis, experienced quite a few things, but those inside also had a restless time. It was because of what Calian had done.

Calian felt truly sorry as he looked at Melfir’s face, which was no longer round. Because I couldn’t rest properly, I became very thin.

“Viscount Reddington has arrived, my prince. Thank you for sending such a good person. Thanks to you, I have more time now.”

It was Calian’s fault for being busy in the first place, but Melfir said such considerate words to Calian.

Calian responded to Melfir’s thanks by nodding and opened his mouth.

“I plan to meet nobles with knight powers at this hunting competition. I think the time has come to find out if there is a force that can replace Brisen’s knights.”

With those words, Jan handed a piece of paper to Melfir and Euria. It was a list of knightly nobles who sent gifts to Calian.

Calian continued as he watched the two of them going through the things written on the paper.

“Baron Fallun.”

“Yes, my prince.”

Calian’s hand pointed to the paper.

“Among them, you can select those who are difficult to trust by the Baron’s standards.”

Melfir, who had made numerous transactions with each noble family while running the merchant, answered as if it was not a difficult task.

“Yes. I will check.”

After that, Calian looked at Euria.

It was to request fertilizer from Euria, the boss of an intelligence organization, not the head of the Wizards Association or the principal of the magic academy.

Euria nodded and said before Calian could say anything.

“I remember well what we investigated about Briesen. We will exclude those who are related to Briesen from the list.”

Calian looked at the two with trustworthy eyes and expressed his gratitude.

Of course, the best way was for Calian to meet each person in person and make a judgment, but it was difficult for Calian, who was not able to move freely, to meet so many people one by one. Therefore, he was trying to borrow the eyes and ears of Melfir and Euria.

Among the people Jan filtered out first, it was clear that only those who were quite trustworthy would remain if they went through the hands of Melfir and Euria. It was okay even if it wasn’t completely filtered.

‘Anyway, the only people I can trust are the people gathered here right now.’

Alan Yan Kyrie, Kalian’s closest associate. And Arsene.

These are people that Kalian can completely trust.

In a slightly wider range were Melphyr, Euria, Lemaine, and Slayman, who were now in front of me. It would have been okay for Calian to reveal his true intentions to these people.

And the nobles you will meet from now on will fall into a slightly more distant range than those mentioned above. We had to hold hands, considering that anyone could turn their back on Calian at any time. That’s why I think it’s okay to not completely filter it out.

“I’ll be here until evening, so just let me know by then.”

After saying that, Calian looked at Arsene. Calian’s eyes drew a long arc.

“Lord Hertz. Is it okay to think that five days will be enough to rest well?”

Arsene, who couldn’t stand boredom and did Veronica’s homework, grinned as he realized that he would now be busy again. Whatever it is, it will be more fun than the homework at the magic academy.

“Yes, my prince. That’s enough.”

Calian smiled with a face similar to Arsene.

Melfir Fallun sent me a gift this morning.

The gift he sent caught Calian off guard once again.

Calian, who came out as soon as he finished breakfast upon hearing that a very special gift had arrived, laughed again as he saw two large and one small animals in front of Chermil Palace.

“Anyway, Baron Fallun.”

It was a gift sent to celebrate Calian’s return and to express gratitude for sending a talented person named Teshid Reddington, who was very close to his heart.

The first gift Melfir sent to Calian was Raven’s necklace. It was more expensive than any of the accessories Calian had, which he still couldn’t bring himself to fill.

However, this gift was not for Kalyan either.

Thanks to this, Yan’s mouth was caught in his ear. Kirie didn’t show it, but she didn’t seem to dislike it.

“How do you think like this?”

The ‘two big horses’ were actually Raven’s brother horses.

It seemed like they had also signed a contract with Maju, who had first sent Raven to Plantz when taking over Briesen Upper.

One was light brown and the other was dark brown, and they were gifts for Jan and Kyrie, respectively. The funny thing is that both dogs were extremely gentle.

Then why on earth is Raven alone?

“That dark-colored horse was originally meant to be sent to Prince Planz. Prince Planz liked Raven so much that he had no choice but to send her.”

Kalian scratched his cheek after hearing Jan’s words. It means that Plantz was completely robbed of Calian by saying that.

Coincidentally, Planz had injured his hand that day due to the knife thrown by him, so instead of feeling sorry, Calian decided to treat it as just compensation for that.

Anyway, Jan and Kirie were going out of the palace a lot now, so I thought about getting them a horse each, so it was a good thing.

“I guess we can just go hunting today.”

Therefore, Kalian, who had said this and allowed Yan to speak to him by nodding his head, this time smiled at the ‘little one’.

“I was thinking about buying you a bird or a dog.”

Calian, who met Melfir, asked if Kyrie’s younger brother was selling animals suitable for raising in the royal palace at the merchant. Anyway, I made a promise to Hina.

It seemed like the answer to that question was sent as a gift.

It was a silver-white kitten with blue and brown odd eyes. At first glance, it looks similar to Hina’s hair color and quite similar to Kirie’s eyes. It was surprising how I found it in such a short period of time.

“Baron Fallun is extraordinary in many ways.”

Calian nodded, deeply sympathizing with Yan’s sentiments.

Of course, the person who loved the meowing kitten the most was Hina, the owner of the gift. Kalian, who was seeing this, picked up the cat and handed it to Hina.

“The cat can stay in Chermil. Just make sure you raise it well.”

Hina’s face widened. It’s a laugh that I always feel, but that makes viewers forget all their complicated feelings.

“Tell Baron Fallun that he will be well received.”

“Yes, my prince.”

By the way, Melfir.

At first, he gave a gift for Kalian’s favorite horse, but this time he sent gifts for the people Kalyan cherished.

“The day will come when the Baron will send me a gift.”

Calian, who had not received anything from Melfir, said this and burst into laughter again.

Anyway, Melphyr is an interesting person.

The rain has already stopped.

The late fall weather was very nice and the hunting competition was not canceled.

“It is an honor to meet you, my prince. I am Aizen Aprin.”

So we finally met.

The hunting competition was held in the form of several nobles forming a group and giving prizes to those who caught the most game.

Previously, Jan had organized the final list, excluding those mentioned by Melfir and Euria, to Calian. The nobles, who had been close to thirty, had already been reduced to eleven after three men.

That was enough.

If each knight and magician gathered together, they would have enough strength to deal with the troops of Briseen and the nobles who were friendly with Briseen.

Calian immediately delivered the list to Lemain. As a result, all of the people on the list were grouped together with Calian.

Calian smiled with a friendly face as he looked at Count Eifrin, who had sent him a bunch of sour rye cookies.

“The cookies were very delicious. I enjoyed them.”

And as Kalian looked into the eyes of the other ten people gathered around him, a strange thing appeared in his eyes. The gazes of the nobles looking at Calian were different from those of those who had simply come to attend the hunting competition.

“Nice to meet you.”

I would have known what the current position was for by looking at the faces of the other people who participated in the group.

Calian will now begin a full-scale fight with Brisen.

“I am Calian.”

Thus, Kalyan made his name known for the second time.
