Reborn as the Enemy Prince

Chapter 7. The roses will bloom soon (5)

Randel’s blue eyes moved quietly as if scanning a painting.

‘They said the roses would bloom soon.’

It didn’t take long to realize why we talked so much every morning. The moment I looked into those eyes, I knew his intention.

I also learned why Calian prepared for this situation. To be precise, I should say that I knew what Sillike had been doing to Calian.

Now that he understood the situation, Randel was thinking about what to do.

Will you raise Calian’s hand?

Or maybe he will take a step back like he always does.

Randel’s gaze landed on Calian. And then slowly walked away.

Instead, his feet left the floor. As Calian wanted, he decided to become Calian’s horse first.

I was curious about how that rose would bloom.

But Plantz, who was sitting alone on a chair, stood up. Then he created a huge ripple in the banquet hall, emptied the wine that had been poured into Randel’s into his mouth, and went out.

To be honest, Randel was more surprised that Planz knew how to speak in complete words than that Plantz himself had cornered Silike. Therefore, I watched for a long time as Plants walked away as if nothing was rough.

In any case, since Plantz has already done what he wanted to do, he has no choice but to put his foot down again.

After Planz left, Sillike left the banquet hall, looking as if she had been greatly insulted. Because there were no other instructions from Lemain, Caera’s knights did not stop the prince and queen from leaving.

“Hurry up and get treatment.”

LeMaine hired a healer.

The necklace made of Serenti’s sacred material began to glow little by little, and soon a dazzling white light began to shine. The healer reached out to Calian’s body.

At the same time, a translucent red shield wrapped around Calian as if protecting him. As a result, the healer’s divine power heading toward Calian was blocked by the shield and collided with each other.

– Pajijik!

It was not just a shield.

Everyone saw that the red light surrounding the shield covered the white light, and Serenti’s energy disappeared into vain, unable to even reach Calian.

It was the 6th Circle Great Shield that blocked the power of the divine being.

“They tell me to just die.”

And then a wizard appeared.

Lemain’s eyes turned fierce.

It was obvious what he was going to say, so Allen quickly sent a shield to protect Calian’s body. He walked into the banquet hall and spoke first.

“There is already a circle in the heart. If divine power is used in that state, the situation will only worsen.”

The healer, who had not been able to properly examine Calian’s body as he was urgently treating him, was startled and withdrew his hand.

Instead of reprimanding the healer, Alan once again used his magic towards Calian. This time it wasn’t a silent chant. The starter words flowed from Alan’s mouth along with a few short words of incantation.

[Abtondant]

It was a magic that prevented me from feeling pain that I had only used once. It was soon visible that Calian’s face relaxed. Alan, who was looking down at this scene in silence, opened his mouth to Lemain.

“This is partly my fault, so I’ll get you one later.”

It was Allen’s own apology for shouting at Lemain so loudly and letting Calian do something like this.

* * *

A leisurely evening.

White paper fell like rain from the sky on Astricia Street, where chatty nobles were crowded together in groups. The paper clearly contained information about numerous people who were ‘presumed’ to have been killed by the Silike and Brisen families.

And after a while, news came as if from the blue.

– Someone tried to poison the 3rd prince, and King Lemain pointed the finger at Queen Silike.

The nobles’ eyes fell on the paper in their hands.

‘As the queen extends her power even to the prince, it will be the queen’s fault that she harmed the people before her.’

‘A queen who killed so many people would not have tolerated a prince who was a threat to her throne.’

As the attempted murder of Calian and the evil deeds committed by Brisen became intertwined, it seemed as if they were evidence of each other.

Over the next few days, the capital city of Kairis was hit by a proper typhoon.

It was difficult to compare it to what the death of Freya alone brought about, and even Calian did not expect it to be to this extent, causing great confusion.

People associated with the known victims gathered together and demanded confirmation of the veracity of the data.

People refused to do business with the Brisen Merchant Marine, and students attending the Brisen Knight Training Center left the school one after another. The procession of nobles who used to pay their respects to the Marquis of Briesen every morning has noticeably decreased.

It was obvious that if even the slightest evidence was discovered, Hatsuara Square would be stained with blood, so he did not want to become involved with Brisen and contribute to drenching the square.

In the end, when papers requesting Silike’s ouster were secretly posted everywhere, Marquis Briesen closed the gate for a while.

In addition, gift boxes were piled up again in Kalian’s room.

It was sent by nobles wishing Calian a speedy recovery. Of course, that was the justification.

“I guess you were in a lot of hurry.”

Calian, who was staring blankly at the piled up gifts and the uninvited guest, said this to the other side of the curtain. The voice was somewhat subdued, but it did not cause any loss of composure.

When Silike came, Kalian closed the bedroom curtains. The reason was that it was difficult to meet customers face to face because he was sick.

Before long, the scent of Renieri filled the room, and Calian spoke to Jan, who was standing next to him.

“Please open the window. My head hurts.”

Our flower-like prince has a headache!

Jan made a fuss and opened all the windows in the room and on the terrace. The scent of Renier passed through the window. Silike bit her lower lip tightly.

“So…”

Calian’s voice came out after all the windows were open.

“What brings you here, Silike?”

Calian left Allan and Lemain to complete the work, but Lemain left this gift exchange entirely to Calian. It meant that since you risked your life, you should get the price you deserve.

After standing silently for a while, Silike sat down on Calian’s sofa. Calian frowned at his self-indulgent behavior, but he wasn’t rude enough to tell him to get up again.

Soon Silike opened her mouth.

“It looks like the Wizards Association has been a little busy.”

Calian laughed quietly. Rather than laughing out of fun, it was closer to laughing out of absurdity.

I knew everything that happened during the time I was losing consciousness, as I had heard it from Jan. So I knew very well that Silike was the perfect underdog.

Of course, I didn’t expect him to kneel down and apologize as soon as he arrived, but I didn’t expect him to come out so confidently.

Calian answered, wiping away his laughter.

“You’re saying something I can’t understand.”

That was exactly what Silike had said to Calian a week ago.

Silike was silent for a while. Calian, who had been waiting for her next words, let out a short sigh. As soon as I opened my eyes after a week, I was informed of the current situation, and within 30 minutes, I was receiving an uninvited guest.

Because of this, Calian, who was not in a condition to deal with him willingly, opened his mouth in a somewhat tired tone.

“Thanks to your consideration, I was able to rest for a bit longer.”

Silike’s eyes briefly fell on the hem of her dress, as if she remembered Calian from that day.

“But since I almost went to the afterlife to rest, I think it would be difficult to face him for a long time.”

“… One by one.”

Finally, Silike’s mouth opened. My voice was trembling slightly because I never dreamed that the day would come when I would say something like this to Calian, and not to anyone else.

“How about we make an exchange?”

“It would have been better if you had said that a week ago.”

Calian slowly shook his head. Of course, Sillike would not be able to see beyond the curtain, so I added a word about it.

“From what I heard, it seems like there were more people there than I expected. What should I do?”

After taking a moment, Calian leaned back against the head of the bed and spoke.

“First, let’s hear what you have prepared.”

Silike made a face as if she was barely holding back something and swallowing it. He didn’t bother to hide the fact that he was speaking forcefully and said what he wanted.

“If you tell me that the data is not true, I will not object to what your highness is preparing.”

A small sound of laughter came from beyond the curtain for a moment. Calian poked Silike’s weakness in a voice that still had a hint of laughter in it.

“I heard that a list of concubine candidates has been posted to Your Majesty. But I’m not sure if it’s really a concubine or a new queen. Do you know?”

Silike chewed her lips.

The typhoon that hit Kairisis was bigger than expected.

Silike was thrown into a prison much deeper than Calian expected. So much so that it would be difficult to take them out just by creating a wizard corps.

So Kalyan’s mind changed.

“Besides, you don’t need the queen’s permission to create an army in the first place. Please tell me something other than that.”

Sillike did not answer. This is because they did not bring anything other than the wizard group. Besides, the answer would have been decided anyway, so Silike spoke through gritted teeth.

“Are you going to tell me what you want?”

Calian nodded and said without further delay.

“Should the sound of swords clashing be this loud in a land ruled by Sispanian descendants?”

I couldn’t tell what was going to happen. Silike looked uncomfortable and looked toward Calian’s bedroom. A relaxed and calm voice continued from inside.

“Please defeat Templar Pavel.”

It’s Pavel!

Silike got up from his seat.

The Kairis Royal Guard Knights originally consisted of only Raon and Karen.

Pavel was an order of knights gifted to Silike by the Marquis of Briesen for the purpose of keeping the king’s guard, Caera, known as the ‘King’s Sword’ in check.

So now Calian was telling him to hand over Silike’s sword. Since I risked my life, wouldn’t it make sense to take away the opponent’s weapon?

“Pavel is disbanded. The Wizards are founded.”

Calian, who was not interested in how surprised Silike was, spoke again as if driving a wedge. It was a very firm voice, as if it would leave no room for compromise.

A crackling sound came from the tightly held fan, and Calian added in a slightly lighter tone.

“I’m also taking back your maid who was attached to me.”

The color disappeared from Silike’s face. Calian gave Silike some time to think. And at the end of that patience, Silike slowly sat down and answered.

“… I will do that.”

Kalian’s lips drew a long line.

Instead of reaffirming Silike’s decision, Calian looked directly at Jan and said,

“Bring it to me.”

“Yes, my prince.”

As if he had been waiting, Jan picked up what was on the nightstand and went out of the bedroom. And then he handed what he carried to Silike.

It was a written oath containing the seal of an oath.

The promises they made were engraved on each other’s hearts, and if they were broken, a spell was placed that would tighten the hearts.

Silike was seen frowning after seeing the oath. I didn’t really know whether it was surprise that I had prepared such a thing, or irritation because I didn’t like the details of the transaction, or both. Because it was none of Calian’s business.

Kalian said as if it was just a natural procedure.

“Because the relationship of trust between me and you is not that strong.”

Silike closed his eyes for a moment, took a deep breath, and signed the pledge. Then, the letters that were written as things that Silike had to protect emerged with a light and formed a long band, which went up Silike’s arm and disappeared. It is directed to the heart. Of course, the same restrictions were imposed on Kalian.

Silike, who had finished her business, stood up with a noticeably gaunt face compared to a week ago. Calian looked at her and opened his mouth.

“Ah. I’m telling you this in case you misunderstand that our relationship as brothers was quite good.”

Silike paused for a moment.

But he didn’t turn his head towards the bedroom.

“Planz didn’t say that for me.”

The words at the banquet hall were the starting point that brought Silike to this point.

Silike’s eyes glowed coldly as she recalled her sense of betrayal toward her son. Calian clicked his tongue at the sight that could be felt even through the curtain.

“You’re talking about something that isn’t that curious.”

“If only you had said one more word there.”

Lemain had lost his mind more than I thought.

How did that anger spread?

“The king’s sword would have struck the queen’s neck on the spot.”

Silike, who had been standing still, walked out step by step.
