Chapter 36. Be patient, Master (2)
Light green eyes filled with life that has begun to bloom.
Red eyes that continue the life that has already left.
Red eyes that are losing their light like a pile of ashes left after everything has been burned. A fishy smell comes from those red eyes that seem to have already turned black and dead.
Just like I felt that day when I was glaring at Plants with unresolved anger, and just like I felt that day when I couldn’t fully hide the image of someone I couldn’t return to, I feel like I smell blood, not the smell of the sea, from those red eyes.
Plantz opened his mouth as he watched his younger brother, trapped alone in a cold prison created by the resurrected ghosts of the past, screaming horribly so that no one could hear.
“Calian.”
Calian’s eyes turned to Plantz.
Kalian is Kalian Road and Planz is Planz Road. They had the same life, but gazed at each other with eyes that gave off a completely different light.
whoever it is.
Don’t let anyone interfere.
Don’t let anyone interfere.
So, I know that he is trying to embrace everyone on his own so that no one gets harmed. He’s always been like that, so I can hear everything he’s thinking in those bright red eyes.
Plantz, who was looking at Calian’s eyes towards him without answering, added a short comment instead of explaining the current situation in detail.
“Sit down. Don’t bark.”
I was saying this because I thought he had disappeared after doing as he told me to do and playing with my cat. They listen to what they want, come to see what they want, figure out the situation as they want, and get angry as they want, so what else can they say?
At the very least, wasn’t Plantz not obedient to Lucy? Since my spoiled younger brother treats Plantz like he’s a quiet pigeon, I can’t help but look at him as a puppy.
Alan, who was watching Planz, stood up silently, passed by Calian, and went outside.
Because Alan was different from Lemain.
It wasn’t such a tactful greeting to ask what you guys are doing now, interfering with a situation where my kid treated my kid like a bird, and my kid’s older brother is treating my kid like a dog.
–
Neither of them paid attention to the door that closed with a small sound.
Calian’s eyes moved as he stood still. I quietly lowered my eyes in front of my younger brother, who had no idea how far he was going to cross the line.
– I don’t know if the King of Secretia… really remembered my brother’s old self and sent it to me.
Devlan is not Silike.
Devlan has nothing to worry about now.
Silike and Devlan, who smiled while giving poison that would slowly kill them, are different. He is a real snake. If you get closer, its poisonous teeth will kill you. You die in an instant, in an instant. He dies before he knows it, bitten by a fang that he doesn’t even know about.
“Don’t be selfish. It’s my job.”
So stop there.
Alan, Arsene, Arianne, Chase, and Plantz. I had to stop there.
Plantz, who had once again heard Calian’s thoughts, let out a drowsy voice.
“I have no hobby, like being a bird that quietly folds its wings and breathes in the cage you made.”
If you need someone like that, go to the 5th floor of Chermil, or call Crown Prince Secretia back, or do whatever you want. Because I’m not.
Calian, who was looking at Plantz with astonishment in his eyes, responded.
“I have never held my leash.”
Brother, don’t you remember how you treated your perfectly fine younger brother like a dog just a moment ago? Anyway, don’t you think birds are better than dogs? That’s what it sounded like.
Plantz, who was leaning back on the sofa and crossing his legs, looked up at Calian crookedly and said.
“I don’t know if my brother doesn’t listen to me because he doesn’t hear what I say in human language, or because he doesn’t believe me.”
I don’t know if it’s because the cold, useless wall I built with my own hands is so thick that I can’t hear anything, or because I’m conceited that anyone other than myself is always weak.
“My brother barked several times today.”
And Plantz didn’t even listen to Calian’s words. Isn’t it a long time since I was so impressed by Kalian’s behavior as an obedient younger brother that I beat him up as an obedient older brother?
I don’t know why, but you really don’t listen to me at all. Planz frowned as he thought about that. This situation is annoying and I don’t like it because Plantz is just as good as Calian.
“Sit down. Don’t look down. It’s annoying.”
Plantz said the same thing again as he looked at Calian, who was standing upright while treating him like a young and weak person.
Calian tightly closed his eyes and tried to control his anger.
I decided to understand with an extremely generous heart that the peas that I had raised so well by keeping them alive, caring for them, teaching them, were disobeying me again and crossing the line.
Then he answered in a quiet voice.
“yes.”
After thinking for a moment about whether he should get rid of that spoiled bastard’s hair that would break off with a single touch and get to work, Calian came and sat down where Alan had been sitting.
It has a subtle strawberry scent.
It was the scent of tea with dried strawberries that had been prepared in advance so that it could be brewed and served at any time in Alan’s office, which only had coffee and mint.
Calian looked at the transparent red car that belonged to Alan for a moment and then opened his mouth.
“I will listen.”
I was told to sit down, so I sat down. It’s not like I was asking them to sit across from each other and enjoy a leisurely tea time, and since I told them not to bark, I was just going to listen.
“Why did you open it? Why did you come here?”
So, I was told to say whatever I wanted to say. Why bother making a sadal like this when it would have been nice to just be a Jeon Seo-gu, quietly delivering letters? I will hear the reason first.
Plantz, who finally defeated Calian, began to speak.
I received a letter from Secretia’s Sejak. I became suspicious of the words written in the letter. That’s why I opened the letter. I had to tell Calian about it so I could handle it alone. It was obvious that I would end up with a dead look on my face, so I just told Alan. After confirming this, Alan even announced that he would go to Secretia right away.
There was no explanation as to what was said in the letter, believed to be from Devlan, and Calian did not miss that point. Calian said, thinking that Plantz had left that out on purpose.
“…and the contents of the letter.”
I don’t know why that bastard keeps talking so subtly, but if he keeps talking about it now, he feels like he’s going to fight until Alan, who is outside, comes in and tries to stop him, so Plantz, who has a big heart, let out a short sigh and let out his anger.
“What are you going to do with that?”
“Isn’t this a letter addressed to me? How many times do I have to tell you that it is my business?”
It was difficult to get into a good situation by being tangled up with the Kairis royal family, so it also meant asking me to tell you everything so that I could think of a way to deal with it quietly.
In the end, Plantz explained the contents of the short letter without exception. Alan destroyed it, but Plantz did not forget a single word of the letter and delivered it in its entirety.
That strange content.
Calian clenched his fists after hearing such information, which made it difficult to even tell whether he knew the truth or not.
A forgotten ghost. As soon as I realized that the ghost had reached out to me again, I clenched my trembling hand into a fist to hide it from Plantz.
“He would know that the third prince of Kairis had never trained in swordsmanship. He would also know that he took to the path of the sword as if in an instant of awakening. He would also know that my swordsmanship before I changed it after hearing from Lord Siegfried that I had the habits of the Secretian knights. If there was a bird that reported this, it would have been thought that there was something suspicious. It is possible that the bird knew about Prince Chase’s close relationship with him and their efforts to help each other, and he may also have known for whom Prince Chase was using the birds. there is.”
Calian, who hid his anger, hatred, fear, regret, guilt, and pain in a low voice, looked at Plantz.
“But I don’t think the words ‘protect again’ were meant without meaning.”
Although it was not written what was to be protected again, Plantz did not really feel the hidden words. I guess it means protecting Chase from Devlan again.
Calian was the same, but he had doubts.
Even if Devlan heard information through birds and found out something strange, he still doubts Calian’s identity. Devlan cannot even infer Calian’s past.
“Either you have directly found the memories like the crown prince of Secretia, or you just think of me as someone who was a knight of Secretia.”
If it was Chase who was asked to protect, it would have been said in search of memories, and if it had been the Secretia royal family or Secretia itself that were asked to protect, it would have been words that were recklessly trying to find Calian without being able to find the memories.
“Whether I know the truth or not, what do I do?”
It was Devlan who taught Bern how to set a double or triple trap to catch someone. It’s as if Devlan has set a trap for Kalyan. It’s like setting a trap so that you have no choice but to stick your head in even though you know it’s dangerous.
He threatened to reveal the real reason why his third son changed to Lemain, who had been unable to make a sound under the pressure of the nobles, who seemed pitiful in Devlan’s eyes.
Whether or not he knew the truth about Calian, Devlan was convinced that the moment LeMaine suspected Calian, everything Calian had would disappear. Since he must have already lost everything, he is confident that he will run without hesitation into the trap he created to avoid losing what he had as a Kalian.
“Are you planning on visiting in person?”
So Planz was asking what he was going to do.
Are you going to personally go and kill Devlan like Alan said you would do?
Can you do that?
Can you do that too?
“Is that why you’re doing this?”
Calian, chased by Devlan’s ghost, asked as he looked at Plantz, who had turned his back on Silike.
Wasn’t it Calian who tried not to find out what Chase had done and forced Planz by asking him if he could let go of Silike’s hand?
This situation was so funny that Calian ended up laughing.
“Are you acting so arbitrarily out of fear that you won’t be able to hold a sword, or that you really won’t?”
Are you making a move to get rid of Devlan, or are you meddling out of fear of being caught in the trap hastily?
“Whichever you choose, just leave it alone. Your brother will get hurt.”
At the end of laughter, Planz looked into the teacup as he watched Calian say this. Planz, who had been looking at the strawberry-filled container for a long time in silence, looked forward again.
strawberry.
I don’t remember if I just answered yes because I was bothered to be asked if I liked it or because I really liked it. I don’t know if I forgot or was forgotten, but I can’t remember.
Did the child know the answer?
Planz, who knew that he would never be able to ask that question even if he lived his whole life, looked at the person who would not give him the answer until he died. Plantz, looking at the eyes as if they had been filled with tea in a teacup, continued speaking.
“I’m not being unruly, I’m acting like an older brother.”
So stop showing off and stop looking down from above.
“Calian.”
I don’t need to know how old you are or what your name is.
This time I won’t do anything I’ll regret.
“So stop barking and just stay as I help you.
“Because it’s annoying.” Plantz said this, not knowing how complicated Calian’s feelings were after hearing that a guy like a broccoli stalk that he had grown with great care would act like a proper older brother. When Calian heard those words, he went through a storm of rage
. I felt like I couldn’t even laugh or cry because I was clearly realizing how annoying my older brother could be.
“Yes.”
So I just answered like this.
