Reborn as the Enemy Prince

Chapter 17. The walk (2)

late at night or early in the morning.

That dark time when anything can be said.

As a wisp of wind swirled around the room, Plants, who was lying on the bed, quietly sat up. Because Calian was not the only one who knew how to open his eyes to the wind.

Instead of taking out the sword he had placed under his pillow, Planz closed his mouth and looked into the darkness. As expected, Plantz chuckled as he saw his younger brother’s red eyes illuminated by the moonlight coming through the window.

“Wizard. You’re free.”

Plants didn’t leave the window open. Nevertheless, there was only one reason why Calian was able to enter Plantz’s bedroom. This was because Sispanian’s alarm magic had been stopped by someone. Of course, there was no one in Kairis who could do such a thing other than Alan Manasil.

“Master said he couldn’t do it twice, so he won’t come again.”

Calian said this, thinking of the useful teacher who was briefly mobilized for this extraordinary meeting between brothers. And Plantz asked briefly.

“Why did you come?”

Instead of answering that question, Calian went to sit on the small sofa in the bedroom. And after staring at Plantz’s face in silence for a while, he opened his mouth.

“One thing to ask, one thing to recommend, and one thing to be thankful for.”

It seemed like he paused for a moment because of something he was thankful for that he probably never wanted to say. That was exactly what was written on Calian’s face. I can’t believe the day will come when I have to say thank you to a guy like that.

Of course, there was only one thing for Calian to be thankful for. It is probably referring to helping or saving the life of Calian’s maid.

The maid standing in front of Randel said nothing as she put her hand into her bosom and tried to take something out. How would Howie know whether it was a notebook or memorization? So, if Plantz had not stood in front of him, no one would have known what the outcome would have been.

However, Plantz also didn’t want to hear thank you from someone like Calian. I already heard about it from the maid, Hina.

So Plantz immediately shook his head and answered.

“I’m not interested in the last one.”

Calian laughed at those words and was the first to say ‘I want to ask you a question.’

“Did Brother Randel notice that you were joining hands with me?”

“okay.”

Plantz responded as if he had been waiting, and Calian let out a low sigh. I tried to hide the fact that I joined hands with Plants as long as possible, but something unexpected happened.

“Why are you so perceptive?”

They say that, but I already knew that it would be inevitable since these princes were risking their lives every day. Just looking at Calian, he hasn’t relaxed even for a single day since he started living in Kairis.

“What about the reaction?”

“Not so much.”

Regardless of which of the two it was that gave up the throne, it would not have been a loss for Randel. Therefore, unless they tried to unite the two forces by making their alliance public, they would not be on guard.

“Yes. Anyway, I need to be more careful with my actions.”

Kalian, who nodded and said this, spoke a second time.

“Aren’t you going to be sick just one more day today? I think it would be best for you not to come to Balkan’s founding ceremony.”

This was a sound related to the third purpose, ‘gratitude’, rather than for any reason that would benefit Kalian. In other words, it was said to be considerate of Plants since he helped Hina.

If Silike had made up his mind to do something, it was clear that he would do it right before Balkan was founded. He must have been boiling with a desire for revenge against Kalian, so he must have decided to ruin the work Kalyan had been working on and ruin Kalyan all at once.

So, if Planz were to appear at the Balkan founding ceremony, he would be able to witness Sillike at work. I thought it was better to just not see it.

Flanz did not answer for a long time.

And after a while, he answered in a low voice.

“That’s the end of the off-topic behavior.”

“Are you sure you want to attend?”

There was no answer back. Calian did not try to persuade Plantz any further and nodded obediently.

“All right.”

However, Kalian did not back down and added words of warning.

“Instead, this time, if something happens, don’t get involved.”

Then he got up and went back to his room.

I really forgot to say thank you.

– Sarah……

Silike’s emerald colored hair flowed over a beautiful grape-colored dress.

The face of the maid who was combing her fine hair was very stiff. This was because Silike’s mood, which had been broken since Calian’s visit a few days ago, showed no signs of improving.

Even if he was slightly upset, he would often scream.

No, I was lucky if I just screamed. In the meantime, I don’t know how many maids have already been injured by Silike’s stabbing swords and by objects thrown by Silike.

“I’m going to put my hair up.”

Sillike did not answer. I was just making eye contact with myself in the mirror. The maid took a quick look at the sight and immediately began braiding Silike’s hair into a thick braid.

Then, it occurred to me that rather than continue to endure days like this, it would be better to go home and marry the young baron my father liked.

Yeah, the Baroness isn’t bad either.

If you get married and live like that, you will get used to that kind of life.

Was it because those thoughts were so deep?

For a moment, the maid’s hand went in the wrong direction.

– Tuk.

There was a small sound without realizing it, and only then did the maid’s face turn pale as she realized the situation. While picking up a pin to fix her hair, she ended up touching Silike’s head with her fingertip.

The eyes of Silike, seen in the mirror, were raised towards the maid.

Silike didn’t even give him time to apologize.

He immediately got up from his seat, turned around, and waved his hand vigorously.

– Wow!

The sound of Silike striking the maid’s cheek passed sharply through the bedroom. The maid, who had been staggering around, fell to her knees without even having time to feel the pain from where she had been hit. I was so scared of those light green eyes that were staring at me just now that I couldn’t think of anything else.

– Wow!

Silike’s palm struck the maid’s cheek once again. He hadn’t said a word until now.

Soon Silike nodded towards the head maid standing next to her.

The head maid, who knew what that meant, quickly sent Silike out before she could touch the maid again. And then he bowed down in front of Silike.

“I’m sorry. I’ll get you out of the palace right away.”

Silike glared at the head maid with cold eyes and sat down. Afterwards, another maid came over and began to comb Silike’s disheveled hair again.

After a while where it was difficult to even breathe, Silike finally opened her mouth when she was done with her hair.

“Has Raon’s leader arrived?”

He was the one who went out with the leader of the 1st Knights of the Karen on Saturday and came to Silike alone on Sunday.

When he was with Karen’s leader, he had such a hesitant look on his face, but when he came to see me separately, he showed a confident attitude as if he was a completely different person. He said he would do what he was told and even requested that he be appointed as the leader of Karen’s knights. Of course Silike accepted.

The head maid quickly answered Silike’s question.

“Yes. I’m waiting outside.”

Silike nodded at those words, thought about something for a moment, and then asked again.

“Is the wizard who disappeared still?”

“Yes. They say it is not visible even within the group called Balkan and has not yet been confirmed anywhere.”

“okay.”

With that answer, Silike stood up.

After that, as he walked outside, he opened his mouth once more with a face that seemed to have suddenly occurred to him.

“Don’t send that kid out. I have something to use.”

The head maid looked at Silike with slightly surprised eyes. Since Silike, who never looks twice at someone who makes a mistake, said this, he is wondering if he may have misheard.

But Silike went out without explaining the same thing again.

I hope that Raon’s leader carried out his orders well and brought the items he told him to prepare.

It was a time when the Heisia Palace was filled with breathtaking tension.

Calian, who was also dressed and waiting for his hair to be finished, asked Alan who was visible through the bedroom curtain.

“I heard that Your Majesty is planning to give Master the title of earl today. It is good.”

There was no official mention. However, the more unofficial a rumor is and the more difficult it is to know the source, the faster it spreads. Therefore, it didn’t take long for the news to reach Kalian’s ears.

“It’s no big deal. The Balkan launch ceremony is more important.”

In any case, Allen was a person who had already proven his worth with his name alone, regardless of whether he had a title or not. That’s why I don’t really care whether I become a count today or not.

“But congratulations, Master.”

“It’s nice to hear your congratulations, but I’m worried that it doesn’t seem like something you’ve been given for free. Now that you’ve officially received your title, it looks like you’ll be giving me more work.”

“No way.”

Calian answered cautiously and closed his mouth. Somehow, I had a feeling that Alan’s worries were not for nothing.

A moment later, when Kalian finished getting ready, Jan walked over and raised the curtain blocking the bedroom. Then, after checking the time, he spoke.

“I’ll tell you to prepare a meal right away.”

Kalian did not go to breakfast that day.

Since Alan suddenly came to visit, I decided to have breakfast with him.

“Ok, thanks.”

After Jan bowed his head and went out, only Calian and Alan were left in the room. It was only then that Calian got to see Alan properly, which made him laugh without even realizing it.

“You’re wearing clothes I’ve never seen before. Is there anyone who said it was no big deal?”

A man who said he didn’t care whether he became a count or not was sitting there wearing luxurious clothes that I had never seen before. After receiving the title, he had to wear a robe signifying that he was the commander of a Balkan corps, so those stylish clothes must have been for the awarding of the title.

Alan even helped Kalian enter Plantz’s room last morning. It was said that he brought his tired body and showed off his style like that.

Alan said, feeling a little embarrassed by Calian’s laughter.

“Rachel prepared it for me, so don’t look at it like that.”

“That’s great. You look good on me.”

It seemed that Alan’s daughter-in-law, Rachel, had made new clothes for him. It was clear that he must have been quite nervous putting on new clothes in the morning, so Calian smiled again as he imagined it.

And the laughter lasted only until Calian sat down across from Alan.

“so.”

After sitting down, Calian opened his mouth like this and looked at Alan. The playful smile had completely disappeared from Calian’s face. Calian, whose eyes were noticeably different from when he was joking with Alan, continued to ask the question he had been meaning to ask.

“Did the Marquis of Briesen visit Your Majesty?”

Although Alan usually came by unexpectedly, I thought there must have been another reason for him to come by on such a busy morning.

For example, Evan Brissen, who was very anxious because he didn’t know what Silike was going to do, suddenly visited Lemain.

As expected, Alan nodded with a slight smile.

“That’s right. The Marquis of Briesen left after having a private meeting with His Highness a little while ago.”

“I will cooperate with you in catching Silike, so please make sure that the Brisen family does not suffer any damage from what Silike does this time. “I would have said something like that.”

“Yes. “I said the same thing as the prince.”

Soon, Alan opened his mouth to explain the whole story.

“I guess it’s Lord Hertz.”

But that’s all.

– Kwaaaang!

An explosion sound that could never be ignored rang out, and Alan’s words continued. I couldn’t do it.

I felt a vibration that was enough to shake the windows of the terrace. Calian and Alan jumped up from their seats and went out to the terrace.

And Calian laughed involuntarily at the sight he saw.

“I said I wouldn’t be able to stay for long. But…”

It was just as I heard and felt.

It was an explosion.

It was an explosion that occurred inside the Kairis Palace.

Black smoke was billowing out of the Heysia Palace.

The meaning was read from the corner of Calian’s mouth as he looked at it. A difficult smile appeared. Alan, who was standing next to him, also looked not that embarrassed.

“The false accusation that Silike will give me this time is quite flashy. I guess I should be grateful for this.”

In the past, Silike had falsely accused the old Calian of trying to poison him. He used that as an excuse to assassinate the old Calian.

This time, Sillike’s way of thinking did not change at all.

“The culprit of that explosion . Are you saying that you are trying to accuse me of being a prince?” ”

Otherwise, there would be an explosion in Heycia.”

Calian answered in a whisper with a relaxed expression on his face.

“At first, watch out for the poison. And now you’re trying to falsely accuse me.”

Should I just take it?

Now I have to give it back even if I have to repay it.
