Chapter 24. Cornerstone of Understanding (10)
Kalyan is absent or once.
And the planz will be about three times.
This means that it is the number of patience that can be exercised at one time. Of course, it wouldn’t always be the same, but if you roughly guessed it, it would be about that way.
“Why are you suddenly telling me not to come?”
A shuddering breath escaped Planz’s mouth. It was because he was someone who had no way of saying ‘yes’ to anything at once.
I really wanted to do something to that crazy wizard who wouldn’t listen to a single word, but I held back for now.
“You. Wizard.”
“I am the vice-corps commander. Vice-corps commander.”
Planz closed his eyes for a moment. I endure it for the second time.
While I am patient, I try to think based on common sense and reason.
okay. What that crazy wizard said is not wrong. He is also the vice-commander of the Balkans, and Plants is also the vice-commander of the Balkans. However, as everyone knows about Planz.
He is a prince.
Try adding quietly in your head.
Arsene That guy is just the vice commander. In addition to being the vice commander, Planz is also a prince. The word referring to Planz is longer.
Now try subtraction in reverse.
Except for the vice-corps commander, there is nothing wrong with him. If you remove the vice commander from Plantz, the prince remains. They are a noble royal family with Sispanian blood.
“Is this the Wilhelm Hall?”
Plants came out of Lemain’s office and came down the stairs of Arpia Palace. And Arsene was climbing the stairs of Arpia Palace to go to Alan’s office. These two met.
Therefore, this place was definitely Arpia Palace.
Since it was not Wilhelm’s view, Planz meant a prince before he was the vice commander of the Balkan army.
“When you told us not to come when you asked us to meet because of Balkan matters, weren’t you speaking as the vice-corps commander?”
And Arsene responded like this.
Kalyan is not a member of the Balkans. He was just a prince who followed Arsene. Regardless of whether what he wanted to say was related to the Balkans or not, Calian ‘just’ called Arsene.
However, Plantz told him not to come when Calian called him, and he responded by giving a reason that didn’t even seem like that. That crazy wizard!
anyway.
Take a deep breath again. I endured it three times.
A low voice came out from Plantz’s clenched mouth.
“Something unpleasant has happened to my great brother today, so please don’t come. I said I would take care of my great brother when I have time and go to the Wilhelm Museum. Why on earth are you?”
“I am the vice-corps commander. Vice-corps commander.”
Let me just point out here that Plantz is sixteen years old.
In other words, Arsene is thirteen years older than Plantz. Nevertheless, the reason why an argument is possible is because one of the two has either an excessively high mental age or an excessively low mental age. Or maybe it’s because it’s both.
Anyway, just like this, Plantz’s three patience ran out. A childlike, pretty smile was drawn on Plantz’s face as he slowly brushed his hair.
“Vice Commander, you. You keep barking like that for today and acting like you’re going to disappear forever.”
So far.
Whatever the target, Arsene, who knew the point of the explosion, suddenly returned to a more polite tone and opened his mouth.
“I understand for now. I am currently working outside, so I may not be available, so please come to the Wilhelm Pavilion and call me, and I will come see you right away. Then, is it okay if I leave now?”
It’s called working outside.
Arsene, who presented the punishment for cleaning up the remains of the Heysia Palace in a very attractive way, bowed his head and showed respect.
After seeing this, Plantz closed his eyes again, took a deep breath, and moved his head slightly to the side. It meant disappearing quickly before I open my eyes. Arsene grinned at the sight and walked towards Alan’s office again.
“…… under.”
Kalyan either doesn’t tolerate it or tolerates it at least once.
And Planz endures up to three times.
When his patience runs out, Kalian takes out a knife or a club. And Plants closes his eyes.
Plants didn’t know that this was one of the reasons why Raven and Arsene followed Calian unconditionally.
However, as an older brother, you can’t bark and bite like your younger brother. So Plantz went down the stairs with patience, thinking that this was really the last time.
And then I saw Chase walking towards Arpia Palace. Plantz and Chase’s feet stopped at the same time as their eyes met.
‘Why not now?’
A short sigh came out of Planz’s mouth again.
Calian was not there, as he had already returned to Chermil.
It was true that it was Calian who kept Arsene from dinner. After meeting Chase, who said he was going tomorrow, it would be crazy if he thought it would be okay to have Plants and Arsene in front of him as a pair.
So, I forced Arsene not to come.
Shouldn’t he pay the price for destroying the palace and providing food for him? This was roughly the idea. I don’t know if the value is correct.
But then I ran into an unexpected chase.
Plantz didn’t know that Chase had already met Arsene. Instead, I had a vague idea of the kind of bad relationship between Chase and Arsene. So, I tried to tell him that there was already someone in Alan’s office and that he should just go back.
Because of this, Plantz closed his mouth tightly.
Chase also never thought he would see Plants at this time. Thanks to this, what Chase could not hide was revealed to Plantz.
When I saw that, I kept my mouth shut.
The corners of Plantz’s eyes narrowed as he saw what was reflected in those purple eyes.
* * *
Not a single thing is forgotten.
He was walking straight, trampling on a puddle of blood. An arrogant face that seems to look down on everything in the world. A low, cold voice as if it was holding the neck of the person it was facing.
I clearly remember facing the scene where I felt like all my bones were crumbling from mourning, my whole flesh was falling apart in despair, and finally, I felt like every last drop of blood was falling apart.
Chase knew as soon as he saw him.
– A king gone mad.
I immediately knew why everyone was saying this to him.
Those eyes.
It was like a glass bead with cracks in all directions. A light green glass bead that looks like it will shatter and shatter at the slightest touch.
How could there be no light in eyes as colored as blades of grass that have just come to life?
Even in the midst of that grief, I had that thought.
Funny.
* * *
A passing glance.
My last memory ended with Arsene’s spear piercing my heart. Plantz’s eyes met just before that. That memory rushed through my mind without me even having a chance to stop it.
Chase, who suddenly remembered a bitter memory as he looked into the eyes of the person looking at him, covered his face with his hands and said,
“for a moment.”
Even though he had treated Plants resolutely until now, he suddenly became agitated like this. The vision of the past overlapped with the planz standing in front.
This was after a long talk with Calian.
As I was worrying about the path Calian would take and thinking about what Vern was trying to protect, my mind was filled with memories of the time after Vern left without being able to protect it.
Seeing Chase, who always talked a lot or walked a lot when they met, Plantz just nodded without answering. Of course, you won’t be able to see it.
After a moment, Chase lowered his hand and greeted me as if nothing had happened.
“Seeing you again like this, Prince Planz.”
“… I didn’t see the prince.”
It was not a response to the greeting.
Chase, who had already returned to his normal self at the correct point, smiled softly and nodded. I already knew that Plantz was quick-witted and thought-provoking, so I wasn’t surprised that he said this.
“It was a little noisy today. It’s okay.”
Plantz sighed softly.
Whether it’s okay or not isn’t for Plantz to know. When I say it’s okay, I can’t help but make a face saying it’s okay.
“I thought you were meeting my brother.”
“We met. We went back.”
To Chermil Palace.
And then to Kalyan.
I don’t know if he understood what was going on, but this time, Plantz just nodded. Then he turned towards Chermil Palace and said:
“I think it would be better to see Count Manasil later.”
I know Chase is leaving tomorrow.
There would be a breakfast with Lemain, but Lemain would not necessarily invite the princes to attend. Didn’t the three energetic sons of this enormous family all get into accidents and are all on probation?
So after today, Plants wouldn’t have anything to talk to Chase for a while either. Nevertheless, the reason I tried to go back without only telling the story about Alan was because I was worried that I would have something to ask.
If Calian had a truly wide-ranging sense of understanding, Plantz had a truly wide-ranging sense of guilt.
“I thought it was unexpected.”
The words, whether teasing or surprising, caught Plantz’s foot. Plantz turned his head and looked at Chase.
“Prince Calian didn’t know that Prince Planz came to visit me.”
shit.
The name has changed again.
Plantz frowned once again at that title, which was as changeable as the weather in Kairis in midsummer.
“It was surprising that Prince Plants went to such lengths to help Prince Calian, and it was surprising that Prince Calian did not know about it.”
“…Not much.”
It’s not that important. I didn’t even feel the need to make a move. Anyway, there are a lot of things we don’t know about each other, so it might be surprising.
Plantz, who gave a three-letter answer with this meaning, opened his mouth again. Since Chase wasn’t Calian, I thought he probably didn’t understand correctly.
“not really.”
So I added this. It’s not that great, so don’t worry about it.
Chase seemed to understand as he nodded. So Planz turned to Chermil without saying anything.
“however.”
Chase’s words caught Plantz’s stride again.
In Chase’s memories, the emotionless steps that seemed impossible to hold on to with anything turn around too easily.
“What else?”
A voice full of annoyance, but thoughtful.
Chase smiled slightly and slowly opened his mouth.
“It’s strange that I’m even saying this, but anyway… this is something Prince Calian doesn’t know about.”
Chase, who said this, was lost in thought for a moment with a face that seemed to be looking into the distance. Then he opened his mouth again and began to speak slowly.
“Last time you told me to get ready. I thought you had a good reason for doing something like that.”
Chase said as he turned his gaze and looked into Plantz’s eyes.
“That’s probably true. That’s how I see it.”
That’s how I saw it too.
I wasn’t talking about current events. I understood that Chase was saying that he had met Plantz during the same time that Bern had experienced.
Plantz’s head rose slightly.
Chase couldn’t be disappointed in him even if he didn’t show interest or seemed like he didn’t want to hear it. But on the contrary, Plantz looked at Chase with the most concentration he had ever shown.
“I had a feeling there must be a reason. I felt aggrieved because I wanted to know the reason.”
Unfortunately, I couldn’t continue my thoughts any further.
Nod.
Light green eyes closed and he shook his head once.
The Balkan corps commander walked out with him. .
He quietly said he was sorry.
That was the last time.
“Why are you saying that?”
“I’m saying this because I don’t know whether Prince Planz’s actions are helping or repaying.”
Is he moving to help Calian or is he trying to repay his debt to Calian? “ Ask
for help, not pay back.”
Plantz closed his eyes for a moment.
“Did it look like he was paying back?”
“Well, I don’t know. I don’t know if it’s because I decided to help or pay back, but I feel like I’m already creating poison in my own way. It seems like the vague belief in oneself is not a lifeline.”
Chase didn’t know whether speaking of Planz that day would be medicine or poison for Plantz. Nevertheless, he was telling this if this It was because he judged that even if the story was poisonous to Plantz, nothing would be particularly different compared to now.
“Even if there was a reason, the behavior of Plantz that day cannot be forgiven by Bern. But I’m telling you this because I think it might be a reason for Plantz to understand himself now.”
Chase’s story ended there.
Plantz just listened and Chase didn’t say anything more.
After a while, Planz said , Tsu quietly opened his eyes.
“Okay… I’ll keep this in mind.”
Plantz didn’t know why Chase had said this.
So Plantz just said this with a face that had already returned to normal. Chase was like that. After nodding once toward Plants, he walked toward the Rubia pavilion. Alan had decided to come see him later. It was nice to meet you or
see you next time.
It wasn’t a relationship worth talking about.
That kind of greeting . You will have to do it sometime in the distant future.
