Reborn as the Enemy Prince

Chapter 15. Let me ask you just one thing. (1)

Alan’s statement that LeMaine always takes care of things was truly bullshit. Clearly, LeMaine was treating Alan as much as he was working on him.

Among those working at the royal palace, Alan was the only one who had a private office in Arpia Palace, Lemain’s office space.

“Wow…”

Calian, who was visiting the place where Alan’s office was located for the first time, let out an exclamation. Since I hadn’t even entered the office yet, I wasn’t impressed by its facilities or size.

“It’s huge.”

Kalian, who said that, burst into laughter.

Calian barely stopped laughing after realizing that his laughter was echoing through the solemn hallways of Arfia Palace.

“I can see at a glance why Master has always been with you. Your Majesty was taking such good care of you that you complained.”

After saying that, Calian looked at the two offices located on the uppermost floor of Arpia Palace.

Lemain’s office was on the left of the hallway filled with portraits of past Kairis kings, and Allan’s office was on the right.

In other words, Lemain provided a place for Alan to work right across from his office.

As soon as you open the door, the king is there, so what better treatment could there be for Alan, who has no special title in Kairis?

“Don’t say that.”

Alan, who was next to me, grumbled like this.

He originally worked at Narsil Hall and was told that he would be given a bigger and better room, so he came and found the room across from Lemain. When I said no, Lemain said he would just put another desk in his office. Several months have already passed since I entered my new office, crying and eating mustard at the king’s unconventional treatment.

“You probably have no idea how much I suffer every day.”

Alan’s main work was related to the wizard group Vulkan. Of course, it was something I did with Lemain. But at some point, Lemain began handing over his share to Allan one by one.

Thanks to this, Alan, who had thought of ‘a teacher who teaches magic to the prince and helps the king a little with his work in his spare time’, was now able to barely watch the prince’s magic in his spare time after work.

Of course, the fact that Alan claimed to be Calian’s teacher was just an excuse to enter the palace. Moreover, Calian was also practicing magic well on his own using the knowledge that the old Calian had acquired well.

But anyway, isn’t there something wrong with this?

“The work given by Your Majesty is very difficult.”

Kalian’s laughter started again as he saw Alan complaining endlessly. Alan quickly opened the door to his office and let his student in, who couldn’t stop laughing.

Calian entered Alan’s office and sat down on the sofa, trying to suppress his laughter.

The reason Calian followed Alan to Arpia Palace was for a private meeting with Lemain. As soon as he heard Calian’s request, Alan brought Calian here.

‘No matter how secretly your Majesty and the Prince meet, they will be found out anyway. So, just say you have something to do in my office and go with confidence. It’s better that way.’

Thanks to this, Calian came out as soon as he finished talking with Alan. And he confidently arrived at Arpia Palace, greeted by many people.

“Please wait a moment. Now, I am going to secretly bring you home.”

After Alan said this jokingly and left, Calian’s heart started pounding again. It was true that Calian had requested a secret meeting with Lemain, but he did not expect that they would meet right away as soon as he spoke.

Calian sat on the sofa in Alan’s office and was busy clearing his throat, moving his facial muscles a few times, and checking his clothes. I was nervous.

Before long, the door opened again and Alan came in first, followed by Lemain. Calian stood up and politely bowed.

“okay.”

Lemain, who received Calian’s greeting briefly, sat down across from Calian. And Alan went out again. Since you said you wanted to be alone, you will be given a seat.

Calian, who had been laughing as if it was fun just a moment ago, looked serious enough to make you wonder if he was the person who came here, and spoke to Lemain.

“Thank you for coming here despite my sudden request, Your Highness.”

The tone of his speech was quite harsh. Lemain, who was looking at Calian’s face, answered in a comfortable voice.

“Don’t be so difficult.”

Calian laughed awkwardly and Lemain continued.

“I was worried that the queen might have taken the queen’s words and actions to heart at dinner, but it was nice to hear them laughing and talking.”

It seemed like he heard Calian’s laughter and conversation echoing through the hallway. Calian, who was embarrassed, was about to apologize, but Lemain’s words came out first.

“I’m not saying this out of a negative attitude. Don’t worry. On the contrary, I’m relieved to see that you’ve grown strong enough to not be swayed by such words.”

Hearing Lemaine’s sincere words, Calian bowed his head with a deep sense of gratitude he had never felt towards Devlan, the King of Secretia.

“I don’t care about that at all, Your Highness. I’m just grateful that you care.”

“Yes. That’s a good thing.”

Lemain smiled slightly and nodded.

And Lemain gazed deeply into Calian’s eyes for a brief moment. Then, after a little pause, he opened his mouth.

“Lord Manasil told me to listen because you are thinking of destroying something else.”

It was a word filled with worry and concern. As soon as he heard Lemain’s words, Calian’s eyes turned towards the door. This was Alan’s place.

If you listen to Lemain’s words now, there is literally no other idiot several times as tall as Plants.

Calian let out a small sigh without realizing it. Somehow, Lemain didn’t say anything about Calian’s sigh because he seemed to know his feelings well.

Soon Calian gave up his resentful gaze towards Alan and looked at Lemain and answered.

“Yes, Your Majesty. There are things to break.”

Lemain nodded.

“I’ll prepare my mind for what I’m going to destroy. Let’s talk about it.”

“Of course it’s Brisen.”

Lemain’s eyes looked out the window.

“You mean Viscount Lennon Briessen and Margrave Gray Briesen?”

“No, I’m not talking about one person in particular, but the Marquis of Briesen himself.”

LeMaine said, trying to be as calm as possible instead of becoming concerned about him again.

“Yes. It will have to happen someday. Keep talking.”

“First, I plan to meet the nobles of the knight family. Therefore, I would like to ask Your Highness who it might be.”

“Are you asking whether your growing power will harm me or become a problem for me to be wary of?”

“Yes, Your Highness.”

In other words, it was no different from asking what Lemain would think about his growing power. It’s a bold question.

Lemain, who understood that, smiled and said.

“He said he was the disciple of the teacher.”

“What do you mean by that?”

“When you said you were creating a magic academy, Lord Manasil asked the same thing. But now they are knights.”

Lemain, who said that, looked at Calian and smiled like a very caring father.

“Okay. It’s okay. Just do whatever you want.”

“Thank you for your permission.”

After expressing his gratitude, Kalian continued to explain in detail what he wanted to ask for.

“There are a few people I would like to talk to, but I need to avoid Briesen’s eyes. Could you perhaps expand on and pursue what you said to Brother Planz at the dinner table?”

Nothing LeMaine said at dinner was empty. Therefore, as soon as Calian’s story ended, Lemain knew what he was talking about.

“You mean hunting?”

“Yes, Your Highness.”

After saying that, Kalian continued his explanation.

“It was something that came up naturally during a meal, and it was something that was recommended to Brother Planz, not me. So even if it is suddenly promoted, there will be few people who will doubt it.”

Lemain nodded and listened carefully to Calian’s words.

“Besides, since it is a hunting competition, wouldn’t it be strange if all the knightly nobles would participate? The queen will not be there, and since rumors about the Margrave of Briesen will soon spread, the Marquis of Briesen will not be able to come either.”

Lemain’s expression darkened somewhat at those words. It wasn’t because it was difficult to hold a hunting competition. Lemain, who realized something from Calian’s words, asked quietly.

“You say you should avoid Briesen’s eyes, but you actually ask us to prepare an event where Plantz has no choice but to attend. Could it be that Plantz and the queen have turned their backs on each other?”

“Yes. At least Brother Planz seems to have changed his mind.”

Lemain had a somewhat confused look on his face.

And then he nodded and answered.

“It’s not difficult. Just tell me to prepare.”

Kalian once again expressed his gratitude for the willing permission. And he spoke in a more cautious voice than before.

“And there is one more thing I would like to ask of you.”

“Talk to me.”

Calian’s next words were something Lemain didn’t expect at all.

“I want to create a large-scale movement magic circle between Kairisis and Siegfried. In the future, I want to connect it to other areas as well.”

“Siegfriedra.”

Land of elephants. A moving magic circle connecting that place and Kairisis.

“In that case, Siegfried’s knights could cover Kairisis in three days.”

“That’s right, Your Highness.”

“I heard from Lord Manasil that your servant is Siegfried’s eldest son. I also know the disposition of the head of the family, Prince Siegfried, but… The story you just brought up is not an issue that can be easily decided based on trust in them. I think so.”

Lemain continued his thoughts for a while.

However, it was not an easy decision to make.

“I will give you an answer again in the future, so please wait a moment.”

“I will.”

In the end, Lemain answered that he needed time to think.

* * *

People’s tastes naturally change at any moment like the flip of a palm.

The proof was that Kalyan did not like the coffee that Bern liked to drink.

Since what he drank on the day he detoxified his body in front of Silike was coffee, Calian was not particularly at the point of refusing to give it to anyone, but he did not look for coffee first and drink it. It feels like a subtle repulsion.

After learning this fact, Jan never served coffee to Calian.

Alan always loved coffee, but he knew Calian’s inner thoughts well, so he did not drink coffee at Chermil Palace.

Therefore, Alan, who returned to Chermil Palace with Calian after finishing his conversation with Lemain, answered Jan when asked what he would like to drink:

“You can give me anything.”

And Arsene, who was sitting across from Alan, politely answered Jan, who asked the same question.

“Do you mind if I ask for a cup of strong coffee?”

“yes.”

Yan answered willingly and placed a cup of highly concentrated coffee that seemed to contain the darkness of the abyss in front of the wizard, whose eyes were puffy.

Alan took a sip of mint tea, saw coffee out of the corner of his eye, and spoke softly to Arsene.

“you. If you drink all that, you’ll die.”

“I don’t think there will be any particular difference.” Either

you die from overwork or you die from drinking coffee that has a color similar to that of subspace.

Arsene drank a cup of coffee without any hesitation.

Calian looked up when he saw that. He shook his head.

“Are you saying it’s because you haven’t been able to develop the space movement magic circle?”

Calian, who had never put pressure on Arsene in particular, opened his mouth. Lemaine said he wouldn’t be able to give an answer right away anyway, so there was no need to rush, and by the way, Arsene was in charge of Balkan. It was because I felt like I would die before becoming a corps commander.

“First of all, it would be best to get some rest today. And just make it a regular magic circle. We just need to strengthen the security.”

Calian did not intend to overwork Arsene this much, so he asked what he had ordered. ”

No.”

But to his surprise, Arsene shook his head and said,

“I gave you an answer, prince. The principle by which the Seal of Oath is activated has been modified. A contract for use between multiple targets and a magic circle is possible.”

Then, Arsene finished his speech with a grin at Calian, whose eyes seemed to be asking why he drank that coffee that seemed to shorten his life rather than sleep. “The prince created a moving magic circle

. You can monopolize it.”

These are words that I really like.

Calian looked at Arsene and showed a smile of trust.

“Thank you for your hard work.”

Arsene, who had sipped Jan’s coffee for fear of falling asleep before hearing Calian’s words, sat down on Calian’s sofa. He collapsed as if in a faint. Then he fell into a deep sleep for the first time in a long time.

Seeing this, Alan asked Calian,

“Is there nothing else for him to do?”

“Yes. I’m planning on sending out wizards from the Wizard Association to build the magic circle.”

” Then, that friend has become a free wizard again.”

When Calian, who realized why Alan was asking that question, could not bear to answer, Alan found the answer on his face and smiled with satisfaction. The

wizard’s work was in Arfia Palace . There’s a lot of it piled up.

I wonder if the future corps commander has this much free time to use it.
