Reborn as the Enemy Prince

Chapter 35. Ghost (2)

The most amazing moment created by the sun.

The light of the sunset is unfortunately short and as precious as it is short.

Arianne was a person with eyes that gave off a beautiful glow, like a sunset, warmer than red and warmer than blue.

– You’re still not going to answer? Do you have a lot of time?

Of course, I am saying that what I saw was like that, and I am definitely not saying that what I put into my mouth was like that.

– Oh, are you the one my fiancé left behind?

– Just a moment… please wait a moment.

In an instant, Calian, who had become ‘the thing that Arianne’s fiancé left behind’, sent an answer to Arianne, who kept ringing in her head and urging her to answer quickly. Then, as if he had been waiting, the next words flowed in.

– Wow, it really works. Hello, the person my fiancé left behind? This may not be the first time, but since it is my first time, I will introduce myself first. Her name is Arianne Lin, and her mother is a legal affairs officer, so I happen to be caught up with her. Oh, and Crown Prince Secretia is my fiancé.

All countries on the continent obviously use a common language.

So Arianne probably didn’t understand Calian’s words, ‘Please wait a moment.’ Nevertheless, the self-introduction continued immediately.

Calian laughed as he realized that his personality, which cannot be fully explained by the word arbitrary, had not changed at all. Yan, who saw this, stood up without making a sound and spoke in a low voice.

“Prince, I am going to leave now.”

The ring suddenly glowed and Calian’s mouth fell silent throughout the entire Rosellita period, so it was a sound that made him realize what kind of situation Calian was in now.

Jan had also known that Calian had not taken the ring off under any circumstances lately, but this was the first time he had actually seen it glowing inside Chermil Palace.

Calian did not explain who owned the ring and the bracelet attached to it, nor how it was possible for the ring to glow even when inside Chermil. This is because I have not used the ring in front of Jan since I visited Rosellita.

“Jan, I’ll explain later. I’m sorry.”

“are you okay.”

But Jan had an expression on his face that seemed like he was just going to do it. It was not an expression of curiosity but patience; it was an expression that came from the thought that there must be something going on with Calian, but that there was no need to know.

The reason was simple.

Because Kalyan didn’t tell me.

Isn’t the baby elephant the first to be curious about anything unless it is related to Kalyan’s safety?

“Please call me if you need anything.”

Therefore, after saying these simple words, Yan stood up and slightly bowed his head.

“Ok, thanks.”

Calian, who felt even more sorry for not being able to tell me in advance, nodded and answered. I wanted to explain the situation to Jan, but right now, the first thing I wanted to do was check the circumstances of Arianne’s conversation.

Judging by the way he introduced himself calmly, it didn’t seem like he was contacting me for an urgent situation that wasn’t good, but in any case, wouldn’t Chase be the same as Calian? Obviously, the bracelet would not be taken off under any circumstances, so it would have been better to quickly find out why and under what circumstances Arianne was talking to her.

– Nice to meet you, Arianne.

– ah. I guess they called it by its original name. Yes, nice to meet you.

Arianne was also a 2nd circle wizard.

It wasn’t that he didn’t have talent, but he gave up halfway through training. It was not because wizards were not treated specially in Secretia or because the family was against it. This was because Arianne herself did not have much interest in being a wizard.

Anyway, after seeing Arianne’s reaction, Calian could tell that Chase had told Arianne his secret.

It’s a good thing and fortunate.

For Chase, Arianne has always been like a big star floating in the sky. So, it was clear that Arianne would hold Chase’s heart in a different way than Taillan and properly tell him the direction he should take.

– Then what should I call you?

– A name is enough.

Since they had originally only called each other by their first names and talked comfortably, Calian had a look of disappointment on his face when he answered this without realizing it. It was because I didn’t know what name Arianne would call.

– Okay. Then Kalyan.

And Arianne immediately responded like this, surprising Calian twice.

No matter how first it was approved and no matter how foreign it is, isn’t it a royal name? Nevertheless, I was surprised that he still had the confidence to call the prince’s name without hesitation, and I was even more surprised that he called me ‘Kalian’ instead of ‘Bern’.

Calian did not yet know that in order to remember the name ‘Bern’, he had to come up with the name himself, like in the case of Chase, or hear the name directly from Calian, like in the case of Alan or Kyrie.

– He said we were quite close, but I don’t remember. I don’t think I did anything particularly wrong, so I won’t be sorry. Since we’ll probably meet later and become friends again, I think it’s better not to worry about each other. It’ll be okay, right?

Calian grabbed his head and started laughing softly.

It’s always because the editorial is this long that people criticize me for not answering quickly and asking if I have a lot of time. Moreover, how un-Arianne-like is this to say that she has no intention of being sorry?

– yes. it’s okay. It’s okay if we become friends again.

– You communicate well.

Will it work out well?

How many things have you taught me?

– Anyway, Kalyan. I had a favor to ask, so I contacted them on my own.

– Talk. I’ll help you with anything.

There was no response to this for quite some time. Just as I was starting to feel a little uneasy because of that, I received an answer from Arianne again.

– Oh, it’s really strange. It’s the same thing I’m talking about. I heard they look very similar to Teylan, but it seems like they really are.

He said he wouldn’t be sorry, but he was just casually tapping the area that would hurt. However, because it was like the touch of a witch doctor revealing the area that needed to be treated, Kalian instead of feeling pain only smiled as if he was recalling a friend from a long time ago.

– Anyway, it’s not a big deal to ask…

Arianne, who said it was nothing special, paused for a moment before continuing.

– Please save the crown prince.

And then he made a seemingly insignificant request.

In an extremely light tone, as if it was really no big deal. A request that Calian could never refuse.

* * *

There are three things you must avoid in Wilhelm.

The first is to talk needlessly to the second prince, who is just a bad-tempered prince outside Wilhelm’s pavilion, but shows himself as a perfect vice-corps commander the moment he enters Wilhelm. If you’re not careful, you could end up facing a vice commander with a completely bad personality.

The second is to carelessly bother the healer Hina, who is the symbol of the Balkans and the salvation of all and the light of this land. Everyone except Hina knew that if they bothered Hina by asking for unnecessary treatment, etc., they would inevitably encounter the Three Princes, who were smiling like a flower in full bloom.

The third of them.

This is the most important, yet most difficult thing to keep, that all seniors unanimously say to new recruits entering the Balkans.

Carelessly giving food to Lucy, a silver-white cat who goes back and forth between Wilhelm and Chermil as she pleases.

“Aow!”

“no.”

On the day when he is fooled by the pitiful cries asking why you, human being, are the only ones eating that good-smelling food, and ends up giving up a bite of white bread, you meet both the second prince and Hina, who have the faces of a completely bad-tempered vice commander. Since it was a hassle for Hina to walk, there was a very high chance of meeting the three flower-like princes as an addendum.

So it would be the same as saying that I would cross the Seneu River on my own feet.

“Aeowong!”

Therefore, Needlen, the 5th Circle lightning magician who was the most capable after Arsene, was looking at Lucy with a very embarrassed expression. Her short hair, a color between light purple and pink, reminiscent of adinia petals given when wishing for someone’s recovery, swayed back and forth in the wind.

The source of the problem was that I took out a rye sandwich filled with thin bacon and white cheese made by my younger brother, who runs a fairly famous cafe at the end of Astricia Street. Hungry Lucy, who had come out from a leisurely sleep at the Chermil Palace and came to Wilhelm in search of Hina or Planz, smelled that delicious smell.

“No. This is mine.”

“Meowong!”

It is said that Calian’s horse, Raven, never touches anything other than the grass and vegetables grown separately for the royal horses, but that feisty cat had no idea how to hide it. I tried to eat everything, no matter what.

Thanks to this, Needlen, who didn’t know how much Plantz thought that Lucy looked exactly like his owner, grinned and took out something wrapped in paper from his pocket. It was boiled chicken that I had prepared separately at the request of my younger brother to give to Lucy when I met her.

“Eat this. You can eat this.”

“Meow!”

It didn’t necessarily have to be bacon. Needlen, who was watching Lucy take the chicken and start eating it with a happy sound, tried to take a bite of the sandwich.

“what.”

If only the second prince, the fearsome vice-captain, had not appeared with a shout.

Needlen, startled by a voice like a snowstorm that blew during a leisurely midsummer lunch hour, stood up. Needlen, who noticed exactly where those clear light green eyes were looking, quickly opened his mouth and explained.

“It’s not salty, prince.”

It was only then that Planz turned his head, looked at Needlen, and said, since Lucy was saying that the chicken she had already almost finished eating was not in the sandwich.

“Why you?”

“I eat things with salt in them.”

When asked why you were eating bread alone while losing chicken to Lucy instead of eating with the other wizards, Plantz let out a short sigh after hearing the answer that he was eating salted foods.

okay. Plantz also knows that Calian, who understands, is a strange person.

Still, it wasn’t something he was curious enough to correct and ask again, so Plantz just nodded once and picked up Lucy. Then, he pondered for a moment whether to say that he was good at giving Lucy snacks or to thank him, but in the end, he kept his mouth shut without saying anything.

“Prince Planz.”

Needlen cautiously opened his mouth to Plantz. Needlen, who hesitated for a moment about what to say with that plant in front of him, continued speaking.

“I thought I said something unnecessary yesterday…”

I heard from my younger brother that among the rumors that were spreading widely on the streets of Astricia, it was related to Plantz. Then, yesterday, when I saw Plantz returning to the Wilhelm Pavilion alone at Kalian’s birthday celebration, I suddenly thought of that and told him that I was glad Lennon was safe.

Afterwards, I thought about whether that was actually a good thing for Plantz, and came to the conclusion that it was really just a useless act. Although it is said that he joined hands with Marquis Evan Briesen, isn’t the prince’s family relationship very different from what he thought of? Calian also seemed to be without any communication with his concubine Freya’s younger brother.

“I want to say I’m sorry.”

Of course, Plantz, who had heard what Needlen had said the day before, just nodded with a nonchalant expression on his face and passed by. However, I felt like I made a mistake with my words, so I apologized.

“I didn’t hear anything. “What are you talking about?”

Plantz, who had been looking at Needlen for a moment, replied and went on his way. He was afraid that

if he found out who told the story, his thoughtful but very patient younger brother would come running. Needlen smiled slightly, perhaps knowing that he was just pretending not to have heard anything, then

sat

down again and took a bite of the delicious sandwich

. Are you saying that asking for a favor is not that big of a deal? To make it a little more special, are you trying to ask me to conquer the world?

Calian, who had barely managed to organize the many thoughts that came to mind at the same time, was about to ask for more details, but Arianne spoke up again.

– Your Majesty, the healer. I’m looking for you. As you know, it’s illegal for Tensil healers to come into this country. That’s why we’re arresting and deporting all healers who enter the country. Sooner or later, Marquis Lin might be framed and taken in. Calian’s eyes darken as he looks at the mint tea

. I sat down.

It was simple information that only conveyed the current situation while hiding the details, but the hidden meaning was not simple.

Devlan searches for Tensil’s healer.

In the ‘past’, Devlan also tried to summon Tensil’s healer, but failed, or is it now? Kalian didn’t know if he was looking for it because the situation had changed from the past,

but he knew what it meant to prevent it.

– It’s dangerous.

If Marquis Lin is Arianne’s mother, isn’t she? It means that she suffered damage while trying to fight against Devlan’s power. . Of course, the force is not easy, so I will not try to prune it carelessly, but Devlan is a person whose scope of good is very uncertain. It is impossible to know when he will change his mind and send the sword to Arianne’s house. –

Teilan It’s at my house. Not long ago, I came home after drinking and met some bad guys. So the Crown Prince, who couldn’t sleep at night worrying about his fiancé, sent an escort. It must have been a play. I avoided Devlan’s eyes and kept my

guard

. It means that he played the role of a blind crown prince and sent the knight Teilan to Arianne’s house.

But why?

– Prince Chase, why do you have to risk a civil war? In the past anyway…

– Because it wasn’t in the past anyway.

He wasn’t a person who would have died anyway, regardless of whether he called a healer or not.

So Calian’s eyes narrowed when he realized that both Chase and Vern were hiding each other’s darkness.
