Reborn as the Enemy Prince

Chapter 90. There’s a lot to gain (3)

so let’s go.

Let’s go. Let’s go.

Let’s go.

– Stand tall.

The feet that went down the stairs stopped quietly, making a sound without the slightest disturbance. Then the two knights standing guard at the door showed a polite courtesy.

“Meeting Prince Calian.”

The red eyes move quietly and look at the two.

Because I didn’t go to the Wilhelm Pavilion often, I didn’t meet them many times, but they were still familiar to me. Moreover, he remembered that among them, the knight with olive-colored hair was in charge of guarding the entrance to Chermil Palace.

I remembered Hina’s words, saying that her older brother, who had the same olive-colored hair, had recently come to Balkan, and that she was glad to have another brother and sister in addition to herself and Kirie.

“Nice to meet you, Lord Segovia. And…”

Thanks to this, I was able to receive a greeting with a smiling nod towards the two knights.

“You probably aren’t used to using only one hand yet. Is it okay if I move it?”

If it weren’t for Hina’s words, it might have been difficult to say such calm words to another knight standing with him.

The brown-haired knight smiled brightly in response to the concern expressed before calling my name.

“Fortunately, the sword I use is light, Prince Calian. We sparred a few times and I did not lose the sword. So, I received permission from Vice Commander Hertz to return to work, and I came back today.”

Thanks to Hina, my wounds were all healed.

Although he was unable to reattach the arm that had already disappeared, he said it did not affect his activities. It is said with a smile that although there is still anemia left, it is not too severe.

“…… is it so.”

However, Calian could not say that he was fortunate.

I remembered Arsene’s grumbling voice saying that every time the ribbon tied around Coco’s neck came loose, Coco went to visit Plantz instead of her mother, and that it was all because of the driver who taught Plantz how to tie a ribbon.

Someday older than that, or sometime in the future that will never come. I also thought of the brown-haired knight in gray armor who charged at a pure white sword without stopping even at a young blue aura, but lost his arm and had his heart pierced by that pure white sword.

‘No member died in the battle with Zeon, prince.’

‘I’m sure there were no injuries, Sir Hertz. Are there any seriously injured people?’

‘There were three people. Fortunately, two people will not have any major problems in their future lives, but one person had an arm amputated.’

‘Are you a knight?’

‘yes. It’s a knight.’

‘…… name is.’

In the past, the Balkans were made up of only wizards, so the ‘white devils’ with their faces covered were all wizards. So the royal knights, who could not possibly have belonged to Balkan, were wearing gray armor with their faces exposed.

Thanks to this, there were already many instances of overlap between the knights encountered in front of the walls of Secretia and the current Vulcan crew.

Although there were many.

“When I return to the palace, I was told by my brother to watch the Lord’s swordsmanship. He said he would do so.”

I didn’t know that I would ‘pay back’ for it like this.

“Are you talking about my sword skills?”

“is it so.”

Calian, who spoke quietly in a voice that had suddenly lost its laughter, looked at the knight.

“So, until then, don’t overdo it. It’s a good time to form unnecessary habits, so be careful not to do so.”

“Prince. I can learn from the knight Lord Bern. There are other swordsmanship instructors, so it’s okay. You don’t have to waste your precious time because of me…” The words came back, full of regret

.

Since you are not Calian’s exclusive knight like Kyrie, how could you possibly think of learning sword skills from Calian? Even though Hina mentioned Kalyan and told him not to worry, it was something I didn’t expect at all.

Calian, who heard those words clearly revealing his true intentions, lowered his gaze.

The long, white leather sword strap fastening to the knight’s waist can be seen hanging down. Although it was tied to prevent it from unraveling, the long remaining string was probably left unattended.

Calian held out his hand. Then, he grasped the long string flowing from the knight’s waist and slowly moved his white, thin hand, which had no visible scars.

“The arm was cut off instead of the head. If that’s the case, you’ve already been lucky enough to survive once.”

Fluttering.

Tie a butterfly knot.

“Next time, I have to live by my skills. Properly.”

Fluttering.

A low voice flowing through the sound of a thin string moving reaches my driver.

“…Isn’t that so?”

“That’s right.”

“The army survives only when each individual lives like that.”

“Yes, that’s right.”

“That way, the gods will save me forever.”

Balkan belongs to Kalyan.

This is Calian’s army, created by Calian to save himself.

Even if Lemain planned the same thing, Allen helped him, Arsene led him, and Plantz raised him, even if he receives Lemain’s orders, reveres Allen, follows Arsene, and takes Plantz’s side. Anyway, Balkan is Calian’s army. Ultimately, it’s Kalian’s.

“I understand, prince. I will be careful not to develop unnecessary habits.”

The knight, who must have known that fact, answered.

“is it so.”

Don’t worry too much about whether you’re in a lot of pain or heartbroken. I’m glad you seem to be steadfast.

Instead of intercepting what Alan, Arsene, and Planz had to say, Calian just nodded and put down the neatly knotted string. And then he slowly opened his mouth again.

“……Lord Hugo.”

I spoke his name, which I didn’t know in the ‘past’ but now know well. Like taking a long breath in and out.

– Sweet.

The feet of the three princes, who had stopped for a moment, move.

The door leading to the entrance to the dungeon opens.

Calian, who received the courtesy from the two knights once again, took a step forward. Jabak Jabak.

Another swordsman without one arm.

Toward where Norton Ramirez is.

Let’s go.

Let’s go. Let’s go.

* * *

Red rose.

There was a red rose with a really nice scent.

Because it was Randel’s territory, there were rose trees all over the castle. It was also decorated in the VIP room where Randel was staying.

The scent from the roses spreads throughout the night, filling the entire room.

I had noticed it.

This is because it is ‘Planz’, not Randel, who is visiting Fabian at this moment.

‘Crown Prince Planz hates flowers.’

There were many nobles who knew this fact.

The fact that flower decorations were missing from conferences and banquet halls where Planz was present. The actions of Planz, who would leave the room soon after the scent was strong from the person standing next to him. The incident of ordering flower-scented perfume on the 4th floor of the Chermil Palace has never happened. Rumors that there was no such thing spread the story of Al-eum-aleum.

So you will know.

There is no way he wouldn’t know that Fabian’s lord’s representative rarely walks to the capital. Nevertheless, I pretended not to notice and placed an armful of red roses in my room.

Randel took his eyes off the rose, which was starting to reveal its red more under the slowly shining sunlight, and turned his head. It was directed at the lord’s agent, Count Varzian, who did not show any reaction even though he said nothing for a long time.

‘I break it.’

Kirie’s answer comes to mind.

How does Kalyan get angry?

Kyrie’s first answer to that was simple and clear.

Of course, that doesn’t mean it was helpful. Randel also asked because he had never seen Calian angry. Randel also knew very well what happened to Gray Brisen’s waist and Heysia Palace.

– Put it away now. Before I kill them all.

Moreover, it was clearly Randel who treated Kalian the most. Wasn’t Calian the one who never hid the sword in his eyes, the sword in his mouth, or the sword in his flowing energy from Randel?

So, he couldn’t have asked because he didn’t know that an angry Kalian was spewing poison.

That’s why Randel looked at Kyrie again.

And then I heard Kirie’s answer again.

‘It’s different when you get angry to gain something and when you get angry to get rid of something. There is a difference between when you get angry to teach and when you get angry to control. There is a difference between when you get angry with the intention of protecting yourself and when you get angry with the idea of winning. This applies to everyone, not just when dealing with subordinates. Prince Randel has also experienced this, hasn’t he?’

In short, the way you get angry is different every time.

The problem is that the people on the 4th floor are not angry.

The problem is that people on the third floor are very angry.

When talking about Plantz as if he was being squeezed, when Rashid was dragged down, and when the rose was cut off from Lemain’s cloak. Randel, who had never shown anger except at that time, raised his head.

“Do you know that Marquis Gray Brisen has been detained in the royal palace?”

“Of course, Crown Prince Planz.”

“We need Rashid Brissen to find out what he claimed. We need to confirm and arrest him as soon as possible, so I hope you hurry.”

Varzian was silent for a moment at Plantz’s low voice. The mouth, which seemed to be thinking about something for a while, opened a moment later.

“Can I be honest with you?”

Randel closed his eyes for a moment as if showing patience and then opened them and said.

“okay.”

“We need time to assess whether listening to Crown Prince Plants’ orders will be a sweet rain or a heavy rain for Prince Randel.”

“I have just come to you with Your Majesty’s wanted order. Are you going to calculate the pros and cons for your brother based on His Majesty’s order?”

“I’m worried about Prince Randel’s safety.”

“What comfort?”

“While inspecting the Whitlin estate, I heard that Prince Randel, who had said he was heading to the capital to check on something, went to Siegfried’s estate.”

When they went to the city of elves, Randel escaped from Whitlin Castle with the excuse that he had something to check on Kyresis. Afterwards, after meeting Danu and resting for a day at Siegfried’s Territory, we set out again as soon as we returned to Whitlin. While pretending to be Plantz as Fabian.

“however.”

“It is said that Prince Randel, who returned to Whitlin, immediately closed the door and has not been seen.”

“so.”

“Sir, where is Prince Randel?”

It is natural that Randel does not wander around Whitlin. That Randel is now here at Fabian with Plantz’s face made and pasted on it.

Of course, by now, Plantz, who had returned to Whitlin, would have been imitating Randel. It was said that he had kept the magic items of the Great Desert Wolf who disguised himself as Chase in Shurinz. However, the news may not have reached Fabian yet, so Randel’s absence may be viewed as suspicious.

“As the Earl knows, you are currently in Whitlin.”

“Then, sir, the distance between Fabian and Whitlin is not far. May I ask why Prince Randel did not accompany us and why the entire royal army remains in Whitlin?”

“I have some doubts, so I don’t think I need to answer.”

Since Planz also went back to Whitlin anyway, I guess I’d rather take off my disguise here. If you do that, you will be able to proceed with work straight away without these minor conflicts.

Randel thought for a moment and looked into Varzian’s eyes.

Is it really loyalty? Is he really worried about Randel’s safety, and is he committing such rudeness to confronting the crown prince? After wondering about that for a while, I opened my mouth.

“I hope you don’t mean to interrogate me, Count.”

“Interrogation. No. It is right to be curious about Prince Randel’s safety. How dare you ask me a question with a different intention?

” “Then, can I regard it as crossing the line for a moment out of concern for my brother?”

Barzian closed his mouth.

Randel raised his downcast eyes and saw Barzian’s gray eyes. I looked into his eyes.

“…… Yes. That’s right, low. I committed a rude act out of concern for Prince Randel’s safety. I’m sorry.”

No,

there is another reason.

Randel is very good at seeing things through. Not only Plantz but also Calian gave up on the idea of hiding something from Randel. Like Calian, he distinguishes between truth and lies

. Even though he doesn’t know how to do it, Randel is the one who learned on his own how to recognize whether the inside of the person in front of him is muddy water or spring water. This is because he had to live by protecting himself from those who approached him with their intentions hidden.

Randel took a deep look at Barzian, whom he had never seen outside of his eyes, and made a decision. Instead of disguising himself as planned, he would continue to deal with Barzian as ‘Planz.’ “Okay.” “Thank you, sir.” It was

so

different

.

This was because Varzian’s gaze towards ‘Planz’ was very different now from when he usually treated Randel. It was because he did not see it as the rival of the prince he supported. Randel, who was lost in thought for a moment, took a step forward

. –

Low and low.

– Low and low.

I walked slowly to the window where a rose bush seemed to be blooming. And as I reached for the vase with gold leaf decorations placed under the window, I thought to myself. When do I get angry and how do I get angry? Kalian’s

behavior

. I opened my mouth while thinking about what Kirie had mentioned.

“The Count said it was true that he crossed the line for a moment out of concern for his brother, and I said I understood. I don’t know what I’m thankful for.”

“That… what do you mean?”

“Isn’t it a protest? He admitted that he did not follow my instructions while carrying out His Majesty’s orders.” He

said he thought he had crossed the line because he was worried about Randel, but he did not say that he would let him go because he thought so and was flattered.

“Furthermore, the count’s attitude was that he would give up Rashid Briesen . It seems to be the boundary of someone who doesn’t like to give. Was it not that the investigation was postponed overnight, but that it was unnecessary because we already knew everything about him? To hide that fact, you asked me a disturbing question.”

“That’s not true, sir.”

“If not. Shouldn’t we show evidence to believe that? Don’t waste time trying to figure out Brother Randel’s whereabouts.”

“I’ve never tried to waste time. “You misunderstood, sir

.” “Misunderstand,”

Randel muttered quietly, stretched out his hand,

and picked up a rose that had bloomed beautifully.

As his hand took out the red flower, a small rustling sound echoed throughout the room. He did not hear it. Anne raised her head.

Under light emerald hair, light green eyes are visible. Those eyes are filled with bright red roses. The hand holding the rose is filled with red energy… Red energy. That is the crown

prince

. A young thing appears in one’s hand.

For the first time, calm disappeared from Varzian’s eyes as he witnessed an unexpected sight. His sharp, shining eyes immediately filled with astonishment. – Pass! The red flower buds turned black in an instant. With

black

ash

. The burnt thing gradually fell to the floor.

A patter of black ash fell to the floor like thick poison.

“… I was told to be careful of poison when you come here, so I prepared it.”

Randel opened his mouth . “

Oh no.” “I didn’t know you were actually going to experience it.”

Randel looked directly at Varzian.

As if he had prepared a magic item to distinguish poison. As if he were using it to find the poison mixed in the rose. A low

voice that subsided his anger. Turning to Barzian,

“If it wasn’t a protest, please explain this.”

Yes,

Kalian gets angry easily,

but he is also good at deceiving people.
