Chapter 79. Bow down (6)
Euria took a deep breath.
What the hell.
What should we do with the Crown Prince, who is neither Calian, who is said to only take a nap outside, nor a cat, who is lying asleep anywhere, and who is trying to wake up the Count by touching his shoulder with his fingertip, as if he has fainted under the influence of magic?
Even holding a well-forged blade, I will never die, and I will pick out the places where I can just come to my senses and skillfully stab them, or if I dare to lose my temper in front of me again, I will send out murderers and piercers as if I will put them to sleep forever. He glanced at Euria with a smiling face as if asking how long he would have to keep an eye on her. The crown prince, who has the appearance of a black beast, is sure to awaken people in a way that can never be gentle.
“…… Lowering.”
In the end, Euria spoke first.
okay. This is not because I can no longer see Plantz’s actions. It wasn’t because I was embarrassed next to the fact that I had really succeeded in using the dual attribute and the fact that Calian, one of those who was under Euria’s guard, had been kidnapped.
I am setting out to retrieve the wild beast, which may have been taken away while intoxicated by the scent of sleep, as quickly as possible.
“Could you please step aside for a moment?”
Euria, who had a hard time convincing herself and suppressing the laughter that was leaking out, used her magic power.
– Wow!
And he lightened Plantz’s troubles by pouring ice-cold water on Navia’s face.
Navia came to her senses in an instant and looked around. Then, when he saw the 3 princes standing in front of him, he jumped upright.
“Prince!”
Planz let out a short sigh as he looked at the Count who had just run away from the bathroom and was in the same state as Anne. And this time, I used my magic power to remove the water from Navia and the entire room. Calian is a wizard anyway, so he won’t be suspected of this.
After being kidnapped from the bedroom, I came to my senses after being baptized with water, and how should I accept the sight of the kind 3 princes in front of me drying me off? Navia, who was surprised and embarrassed, first lowered her head.
“I’m sorry. I see you, Prince Calian.”
Even in this situation, how can I say hello?
If Calian or Randel had seen Navia, who was confident even in front of the two royal families during the dinner, being so agitated, they would have definitely laughed.
However, Kalian did not inform Plantz of the atmosphere at the dinner. However, Landel is not the one to tell Plantz that fact. Therefore, Plantz, who regarded Navia as just a polite count who had a very difficult time with Calian, nodded. Then he moved his mouth.
– Smile.
do.
He smiled a very pretty smile.
Euria, who saw that scene unprepared, bit the inside of her lip. Then, I clenched my fists as tightly as I could, took another deep breath, and turned my head out the window.
‘I didn’t see it. I didn’t see anything. That person is Prince Calian. The Prince of Planz is not imitating his smiling younger brother, but is simply Prince Calian. okay. ‘That’s it.’
While desperately repeating.
“My brother. Give it to me.”
Then, a sound was heard testing Euria’s limits.
‘…… no. That person is just Prince Calian. So you shouldn’t laugh. Can not be done.’
Endless echoes linger in Euria’s head.
Navia turned her head and twitched once, not seeing Euria’s stiff shoulders. Planz saw clearly, but didn’t care. I already knew that it wasn’t a malicious reaction, and I’ve lived for a long time trying not to get caught up in the opinions of others.
Of course, I was very concerned about the evaluation of ‘picky peas’.
So whether Euria laughs or not.
Plantz continued to play Calian as usual.
“… What do you mean by that?”
“I have no taste for saying things twice.”
I’m glad that the situation is like this and I don’t have to talk too long.
Normally, Calian would not speak down to ordinary nobles and would not just throw out such brief business matters, but if he feels uncomfortable, his judgment is distorted, or he becomes a little more agitated, his tone of voice completely changes, doesn’t he?
“When you say brother, do you mean Prince Randel? Are you saying that Prince Randel has disappeared?”
“Say… Brother Planz.”
Plantz, who answered with a habit of saying, “don’t do anything,” tried to frown, but ended up frowning.
Below article. The people of Whitlin thought that the only person Calian could call ‘my older brother’ was Randel. If this was Plants’ territory, Sereia, or Randel’s territory, Fabian, who would the people there think of? Suddenly I get curious.
“Surely your Majesty has disappeared?”
“No way. Should we hand over someone who is well and well?”
“Ah… that’s why you treated me like this… all of a sudden.”
It was only then that Navia realized why Kalyan had almost kidnapped her and hurriedly shook her head.
“No, it’s not me, Prince. This is the first time I’ve heard this.”
“Then tell me. If it’s not the earl, who would it be?”
“I really don’t know. This is the first time I heard that your Majesty disappeared. But how and who did it…”
“Think… Count.”
In the first place, they didn’t kidnap Navia out of suspicion.
He already knew that Plants would not be welcome here. Just as Kalian had guessed, Planz could guess as well.
So it’s not Navia.
Isn’t this something that Lennon, let alone Gray, wouldn’t do?
This is what happened at Whitlin Territory. Whether they intervened or not, the fact that it happened in Whitlin is already a reason to stand in the square, but if Whitlin is even hostile to Planz, what more needs to be said?
“When something like this happens, who will be liked the most? Who are the doubters? Among them, who will dare to touch the crown prince? You have to think about it before you can decide to save him.”
The end of the voice is life-threatening.
“…… I.”
It doesn’t matter if you haven’t read the story.
The thin voice was already cool enough.
Navia barely let out a shaky breath. And then he opened his mouth to the prince standing in front of him.
“This happened in the territory I manage. I know I won’t be able to avoid responsibility.”
A statement that is not an answer to Plantz’s question.
Because of this, Planz’s red eyes turned narrow.
Navia, who did not see that, spoke quickly.
“I will assume that I found out about the accident tomorrow morning. Additionally, I will say that the prince was injured and in a daze. So, since you don’t know, let’s assume that the injuries were deep.”
“That. What does it mean?”
“I saw that the prince did not intervene, and I will definitely prove that. So don’t worry.”
“…… under.”
A sigh like laughter escaped from Planz’s mouth. Euria’s smile has disappeared and a complex expression appears on her face.
The attitude of being more concerned about the health of my horse than the injury of my brother, and the behavior and facial expression that resembled a silique to the point of extreme, it was never easy to deal with people. So the crown prince who seemed like he would never give up his place to his younger brother. Calian’s non-brother.
This is because I learned that they were not worried about his disappearance, but were worried about Kalian, who would be harmed by the disappearance of the crown prince.
“I’m glad you’re not here.”
Navia might not have understood it properly, but it meant that she was glad Calian wasn’t here. If there had been, Navia would have died before she could even finish what she had to say. Of course, by the hands of Kalian, who cared so much.
This is Whitlin, not Sereia or Fabian. So, it may seem natural to have that way of thinking, but that would never be the case for Calian.
In any case, I understand one thing as I see Tensil’s followers worshiping Calian as if they were revering Serenti. Those guys, at least Navia, are not the type of people who have other plans for Calian.
I understand that clearly. I was able to achieve results from this fun play that I took part in.
by the way.
“Anyway. What should I do…”
That pea has no intention of dying just for that reason. So what’s important now is not the discussion about who is responsible for this, but the fact that what kind of guy kidnapped the royal family?
What should I say to make that loyal estate manager change his mind from thinking about how to brush this off, to thinking about who the culprit is?
Planz, who had heard Calian’s words not to wither very well, thought about this and tried to say something, but closed his mouth.
“You tell an interesting story, Count.”
This is why these words were suddenly heard from beyond the open door.
While he was taking refuge in another room after being led by a wizard who suddenly felt a connection with his peer, he was able to hear the conversation in the room thanks to Kirie, who felt the same thing and quietly opened the door to Plantz’s room and entered.
It was Randel.
Randel walked making a quiet noise and stood between Planz and Navia.
“But your worries are useless.”
Kalian said it was useless to worry about how to avoid being falsely accused. Thinking he knew what Randel was going to do, Planz turned the arm wearing the bracelet back.
“It’s not a good idea.”
“The confirmation is not over.”
“We haven’t figured out everything we wanted to yet.”
“I guess we can just shut this guy’s mouth and continue again.”
“Are you someone who trusts others that much?”
“I just didn’t trust your future.”
An endless argument continues.
There was nothing I could do because I didn’t have my youngest brother to stop me, get angry, or take someone’s side or mediate in any way.
“Shouldn’t you say it’s my bloodline?”
“Does it matter anything?”
With Navia embarrassed, Euria looking on, and Kirie sighing, the argument between the two that suddenly began again quickly subsided.
“Wouldn’t it matter?”
“It’s no longer important.”
“… I didn’t know you were someone who knew how to change your thoughts.”
“Who would be different?”
like this.
Of course, no one who is not Kallian would know that this is the conclusion of a fight and that even this level is a sign of great progress.
Anyway, thanks to Kalian, who showed us ‘what a Planz who couldn’t escape Silike really looks like’ throughout the day, Randel, who had somewhat abandoned the idea of putting Silike on the current Plantz, reached out his hand. Then, he took off the bracelet on Plantz’s wrist that had been placed behind his waist.
Calian’s appearance gradually changed.
Navia’s face changed suddenly.
* * *
– Coooooo.
It rings again.
Kalian suddenly thought that it was like an earthquake.
If the magic leaking inside had not been Euria’s, Danu would have been suspected once again. It is said that there was an earthquake due to Danu.
Calian, who had been listening to the deep echo without even turning his head, opened his mouth.
“Do you think I will announce this? Or do you think I will remain silent?”
“Are you talking about the fact that the crown prince of Kairis was kidnapped in Whitlin?”
“okay.”
“How did I know the prince’s identity and what was my intention in bringing him here? I thought the prince would be more curious about that.”
“I never said it was Calian.”
“You didn’t, but I’m sure.”
Calian nodded.
Be sure or not, do as you please. That was the meaning.
Anyway, that question has already been solved.
It must have been because of the sleeping scent. He would have come to his senses much faster than the average person, so he would have known it when he saw it.
“It’s because of the sleeping scent. I was suspicious because you came to your senses earlier than expected.” Just as
Calian thought, Freyr said this.
Calian still did not open his mouth. The sound from outside became a little louder, but he continued to pay no attention to it.
” I recently saw a magic item that had that ability. That’s why I was suspicious… I didn’t care about the opponent’s armament, I didn’t care where the blades were, and the only thing I was looking for was shoes. When I saw that, I became convinced. “Unlike His Majesty the Crown Prince, Prince Calian does not need a blade.”
“That wasn’t my question.”
“Should I just watch Prince Calian’s moves or should I use today as an opportunity to give Prince Calian a chance? Opinions about him are divided among the nobles staying here. Many people were especially surprised by what you showed this evening. Some of them had seen Silike in person, some had not, but everyone thought of Silike.” Still, that
wasn’t the answer to the question.
– Boom boom!
A place where communication magic doesn’t leak out.
Perhaps a shield has been prepared. It seemed as if it had been placed. The sound of the magical impact, gradually growing louder as if to break through, rings in my ears.
“Even though this is Whitlin, the prince said he was injured. If I tell you that the prince’s injury is serious… Even if something goes wrong with you who came to visit Whitlin, the prince will not be involved and suffer any harm. Those who are short-tempered think like that.”
Freyre was saying the same thing to Calian that Navia had said to Flanz. Navia had already known that some nobles here were thinking that way, and she knew that the crown prince had disappeared. He immediately said, ‘If you tell Calian that it was a slander, he won’t be implicated.’ Of course, Calian didn’t know that fact right now, but that was the reality. “However, that is not what I or Count
Hazel meant. Therefore, the Count called them as soon as daybreak tomorrow and tried to persuade them, but in my opinion, tonight was the critical moment. Doesn’t Prince Calian have the power of blessing? So, I thought they would think that as the days passed, the situation would become more disadvantageous for Prince Calian.” These are the
short-tempered people that Freyr spoke of. They thought that when Plantz died here, Calian could escape because ‘Calian was seriously injured at the time.’ They concluded that it was only circumstantial.
But wouldn’t Calian have recovered as much as a day later? If so, the royal family would have linked Calian, whose condition had improved, with Planz’s assassination. So they worked quickly before Calian recovered. That was Freyr’s expectation that he would try to plan.
“That’s why I brought you here first. It’s contradictory, but it’s for protection.”
“Did you think ‘I’ would believe those words?”
Calian asked.
Freyr laughed.
Calian’s fingertips drew a long arc when he saw that. It was his mother’s will to kill for his own relatives. A deep voice came out:
“If I believe what the Baron says, I will be protected. If you don’t believe it, you’ll just follow the plan of those impatient people.”
“Yes. That’s right.”
It’s the bottom line.
Even if you forcefully bring him in and explain the situation, if Plantz believes you and says you will condone this, you can return him the next day. If he doesn’t believe you, it’s a pity, but you have no choice but to take Plantz’s life. The impatient nobles just need to proceed with their work as planned.
“It turned out to be fun. “My brother who was kidnapped like this”
– … Kugugung!
Now the entire wall was shaking.
Kalian stretched out his finger toward the other side of the wall and continued.
“Everyone must have seen that you were so worried. .”
– Uuuuung!
Wind gathered at the tip of the bony finger.
The wind gathered in a circle. The shapeless magic power gathered in a circle and swirled around in a small way. It was
extremely condensed and contained the blade of the Auror in the power of the wind that looked like a transparent bead. It was Calian’s second magic that he created by playing around with the five circles.
A snowball filled with a blood-red sea facing a storm.
The fist-sized sphere he made for the first time looked just like that. Calian, who was looking at the mesmerizingly pretty figure, turned his head.
It was only then that I looked at the protective shield that seemed to be stronger than the one created by the Sispanian’s chariot, the identity of which was currently unknown. I guessed where the power of water and electricity hitting the shield was coming from. Then, I moved as if I was snapping my fingers
. .
– Sssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssing
the air, not on the balls of blades or arrows, is heard from a sphere? And after a moment
– Pszyg
!
The shield, which could no longer withstand the magic power that hit it, shook greatly.
– …… Bang!
A crack appears.
The gap widens and the barrier blocking the door disappears.
– Burst!
Kali, as if waiting for the shield to disappear. The door to where Anne was opened burst open.
And then, hurriedly,
the Crown Prince, who had suddenly become green again, came into the room.
“Are you here?”
Kali greeted her brother, who looked exactly like her now. Ahn turned his eyes. Then he nodded at Euria. Euria smiled slightly when she realized that he meant thank you.
Calian turned his head again.
– Click.
He slowly untied the bracelet that he had no reason to wear anymore.
I feel cold, black hair falling on my face. Instead of protruding bones, I see fingers with flowing lines .
I don’t like it, but I feel like my eye level has gone down just a little bit.
Calian, whose eyes were as red as his Aura, opened his mouth. A voice that was difficult to hear was directed at Freyr.
“We’ll share the rest tomorrow.”
Freyr, who must have remembered someone from Calian’s face, nodded after a while. I still don’t know whether I should understand his actions or not. Calian, who had postponed his decision because he had more questions to ask, looked at Plantz.
“Brother, your shoes are small.”
Plants went back after wearing Kalian’s shoes, and Kalyan unintentionally ended up wearing bigger shoes from the beginning. Thanks to this, the brown shoes that were too big for Calian, who were in their original form, and the black shoes that were a bit too small for Plantz ended up being worn.
Plantz, who understood Kalian’s words, took off the shoes I was wearing. And I wore them interchangeably with Kalyan.
Tap tap.
Calian tapped the recovered black shoes on the floor a few times as if he was satisfied, then opened his mouth.
“Have you eaten.”
“…… yet.”
“Good. Let’s do it together then.”
Preferably in an open living room.
So that everyone can see Calian and Plantz together.
