Reborn as the Enemy Prince

Chapter 7. The roses will bloom soon (4)

Calian’s head lifted slightly.

And without erasing the smile on his face, he faced Silike’s smiling face and opened his mouth.

“It sounds like you are telling me to change my mind.”

The clear and pretty voice of a thin boy who has not yet gone through a period of transformation.

The sound gave me a chill.

“Don’t stab him carelessly. The love between brothers is not that deep.”

The smile that had spread across Silike’s face slowly disappeared. Even her picturesque, beautiful face became slightly wrinkled as she heard her stepson threatening her for the safety of her biological son.

Calian lifted his spoon and tapped the end of the coffee cup. With a brilliant sound, Kalian’s face returned to its original calm.

“So. What should I do with the car?”

Sillike did not answer. He was just looking at Calian with narrowed eyes. Calian silently waited for Silike’s decision.

“I’ll try my best.”

Calian laughed.

“I think it means rejection.”

Calian raised his glass.

Without breaking my gaze at Silike, I poured all the remaining coffee into my mouth and swallowed it.

With that, the doors to the banquet hall opened and nobles began to enter.

* * *

Jan, who was sitting next to the driver and fretting, quickly stopped the carriage. This is because they found a boy and a girl walking along the royal road.

It was already a busy road, so if they were just a boy and a girl, they would have passed by. Of course, I noticed that the man’s hair was light blue and the woman’s hair was silver, but if that were all I would have gone on my way without paying any attention.

“… Are you trying to enter the palace with a sword?”

How on earth can you stop a carriage when you have a flashing long sword like that at your side!

First, Jan put the siblings in the carriage and then entered the carriage himself. So the carriage, with three people on board, stopped by the Wizard’s Association briefly and was heading towards Alan’s house.

Kirie, who heard Jan’s question, answered bluntly with an expressionless face.

“Yes. This is the sword given by the prince.”

Oh, I’m going crazy.

“Only the body will go in today. I will leave the sword at the wizard’s house where I am going. Anyway, absolutely not today.”

The knife in the prince’s arms was also taken out of the palace. I couldn’t let him in with a long sword. Then Hina, a silver-haired girl who was sitting awkwardly in front of Yan, moved her hand towards Kirie.

– puppy. I guess it’s this person. I thought it was a girl because she was cute.

Kirie opened her mouth to answer those words. But the answer came from Jan’s side.

“This is Jan. He’s not a puppy. As you can see, he’s a normal guy.”

Hina shrugged her shoulders when she understood the sign language. Yan, who realized that his tone was harsher than usual, spoke again.

“I understand roughly, so tell me what you want to say to me. Anyway, I’m a bit distracted right now. I didn’t mean to greet you like this. I’m sorry.”

Then, I turned my head towards Kirie and was about to say something again, but the carriage stopped. I could see Alan’s mansion through the window. After telling the siblings to wait, Jan ran into Alan’s house.

Meanwhile, Alan had only just woken up, having returned home late in the morning.

“Are there guests coming?”

Alan, who had roughly tied up his disheveled hair and was making a cup of coffee, quietly walked to the kitchen and took out three more coffee cups.

Then, a little while later, he put the two empty glasses back in. Because I felt that there was only one person coming down from the carriage and running towards me. Alan, who had briefly expanded his mana to look around the house, felt the two in the carriage and let out an exclamation that sounded like he was talking to himself.

“Half-elfran. Our prince’s feet are really wide.”

Just as the two cups of coffee were placed on the table, Jan arrived across the wide garden. Alan snapped his fingers and opened the door that had blocked Jan.

At the same time, the flower-shaped marble statue next to the door moved as if it was overflowing and sang in an excited voice.

“Welcome to the home of Archmage Alan Manasil!”

“Ah… I’m really going crazy.”

Why are all those who use swords and those who use magic crazy?

Yan, suppressing these sounds into his mouth, hurried inside.

Alan’s expression, who had been smiling as he looked forward to Jan’s reaction to the statue, changed completely. This is because, unlike usual, nothing was revealed on Jan’s face.

“Something happened.”

Instead of answering, Jan took out the things he had brought and handed them to Alan.

Knife and medicine bag report. And there was a letter. There was no need to wonder who the seal that sealed the letter belonged to.

“He didn’t tell me what he was thinking. He just asked me to hide it because someone might be looking into the prince’s room soon.”

Alan almost snatched the letter from Jan’s hand and opened it. The corners of Alan’s eyes fluttered as he read the text.

“…… This bastard.”

They said they found a way.

“This is called a method!”

Alan returned the letter to Jan. Then he quickly took off his gown and changed his clothes. Meanwhile, Jan opened Calian’s letter.

My hands were shaking when a sentence caught my eye.

– So, if I don’t wake up right away.

Jan bit her lip.

A guy trying to enter the palace wearing a sword.

The guy who makes the statue sing.

The guy who beat you up and serves as your servant.

The one who brought them all together and said he didn’t like the poison.

I didn’t believe in that guy.

* * *

At the end of Lemain’s banquet, which announced the start of dinner.

Exciting!

Calian’s heart fluttered once. It started running at an irregular speed that was noticeable without having to put my hand on it.

Calian quietly closed his eyes and opened them.

Everyone’s glasses were filled with wine.

The empty coffee cup that had been placed in front of Kalian was removed and a beverage glass to replace the wine was placed. Calian looked at the drink glass.

Of course, it was a decent drink. But Kalyan wanted to make it look as if the drink had been poisoned. You couldn’t say you were poisoned without eating anything.

‘They said it would take about half a day for the results of a poison detection test using a magic reagent to come out. After that, it doesn’t matter if it turns out that the drink was normal.’

At this time, the shock from the stories about the numerous mysterious deaths that the Association’s wizards are spreading out on the streets will be heard before Calian’s news has even subsided, so no one will be interested in the test results by then.

Calian picked up his drink glass and drank it slowly.

Silike turned her head and looked at Calian, probably thinking something. The two looked at each other with expressionless faces and then turned their heads in different directions as promised.

– Collock.

Randel looked at Calian at the sound of coughing.

Calian’s eyes and Randel’s eyes met for a split second. For a moment, Randel’s brow furrowed.

I looked into it. The bottom of Kalyan.

How is my younger brother? Why did you talk like that? What role have you given yourself today?

‘I’m fine.’

Why did I respond like that with a face that didn’t look normal at all when someone expressed concern about my health?

Exciting!

I heard the heartbeat again. The medicine was completely absorbed.

Calian’s heart stopped deciphering.

Tacrimosa’s poison, which had been fading little by little, spread like blood drops that touched the water.

Calian clenched his fists with trembling hands. The coughing gradually became louder and more frequent. The nobles looked at Calian. I could feel Silike making an uncomfortable face and Lemaine examining Calian’s condition.

A strong, fishy smell of blood came out.

– Cough!

Dark red blood poured out from Calian’s mouth. The nobles stood up in shock.

Exciting!

The heart-wrenching pain increased.

Just because you don’t die doesn’t mean the pain will lessen.

The ice spear struck by a guy named Arsene Hertz seemed to be less painful than this. I vividly felt as if my airways were on fire and my lungs were being torn apart.

Calian unconsciously clutched his chest and moaned.

And then finally

– boom!

I lost my strength and fell to the floor.

“Prince!”

The hall was engulfed in commotion, and Caera’s knights surrounded the banquet hall. Soon Lemain approached Calian.

“Calian.”

Lemain sat down on the floor with his knees bent and hugged Calian’s body. As the bony body was lifted up, a sigh flowed from Lemain’s mouth.

Calian held on. I held on and stared at Lemain. To remember someone who did the same thing to the same person and to bring out the buried guilt. So, let’s lose our temper a little bit.

In the end, Calian lost consciousness after seeing Lemain’s eyes distort. Lemaine’s hands trembled at the sight of Calian’s limp body.

Lemain turned his head and looked at someone. The gazes of the nobles also moved together.

– The child should have found her father in order to survive, not a wizard she never knew!

“Geez…”

Lemain opened his mouth as if he was muttering. Soon it became anger.

“Are you even trying to harm my son?”

– If you just wait and see, you will lose.

The anger in Lemain’s eyes touched someone. An angry voice echoed throughout the banquet hall.

“Silike!”

All the nobles in the hall were astonished when they saw the king for the first time and heard the name that came out of his mouth.

Plantz lowered his head and cursed.

Exciting!

The power of blessing was revealed again.

The spread poison was collected and the dead tissue was removed.

Healing began with very slow but clear movements.

Lemain did not notice that Calian’s breathing was gradually becoming more even. Silike, who saw the scene alone, grabbed the hem of her dress.

* * *

The nobles’ gaze did not leave Sillike and Calian. Silike secretly bit her lip. He never thought Lemain would call his name on the spot and act so rashly.

The healer who was examining the symptoms on Kalian’s body opened his mouth.

“It’s an addiction.”

The nobles made a sound that was close to screaming. The prince was truly poisoned. Lemain told the healer to act quickly.

The healer took the necklace in his hand and began to collect Serenti’s divine power. Since he could not use his divine power like the priests in legend, it would take time for the power to detoxify to be revealed.

“It’s not an addiction.”

At that time, Silike opened her mouth, blocking the healer’s actions.

Now that all the nobles heard Lemain shouting his name, he couldn’t just leave this place.

“It’s not a poison, it’s a disease. I heard you have a chronic illness.”

“Silike. That’s it. I won’t hold back any longer.”

This time Lemain, who had no intention of backing down, stopped Sillike.

okay. It was said that Freya’s death was due to illness.

He showed up with all his knights and said that.

The healer quickly sat back down and placed the necklace in his hand. Silike said with a smile on his face that was disguised as calm.

“It’s because your Majesty doesn’t seem to know. Please bite the others first. I’m very worried that my child’s condition will worsen during the commotion.”

LeMaine couldn’t stand the shamelessness anymore and tried to open his mouth to Kaera’s leader. However, someone’s voice came out, interrupting Lemain’s words.

“Kalian was fine. I don’t know why they gave me a disease that wasn’t there, but even though I saw it every morning, I never thought there was anything wrong. But the word ‘my child’. Isn’t this something you shouldn’t do to Calian, not to anyone else?”

Silike’s eyes were greatly shaken.

She turned her gaze to follow the voice that contradicted her words.

“Don’t try so hard. That’s what I said.”

The person who turned Silike’s words upside down in an instant turned his head towards her and slowly finished speaking.

“……Mother.”

The light green eyes looking at her.

They were not Randel’s.
