Chapter 81. You know, Dmirea (5),
I wonder if dust will settle.
I was a little worried and covered my face.
Then Arsene shook his head and made a gesture.
Freya and Calian sitting side by side.
The thin film of ice that surrounded them on all sides disappeared with Arsene’s touch.
“…I almost did something nasty.”
Arsene wanted to learn fire magic, but his teacher was against it. This is because we looked into the attributes that fit Arsene better. If there had been no teacher, Arsene would have naturally chosen fire as his main servant. Because I liked fire the most.
But what about Kalyan? I guess there wasn’t a teacher who could find out if there were other attributes that would suit me better. So, this would mean that ‘wind’ was Kalian’s favorite attribute when he was young.
When I made Kalian, I made it so that it could be placed somewhere in Whitlin where the wind blows so much. I was worried that the dust would settle on it, so I thought about blocking it so that not a single wind could blow in. Just like what I said, I almost did something nasty.
“I guess I’m really tired.”
The faces of the mother and son who resemble each other so much are full of smiles. As I was staring at it, I felt like a breeze was blowing into a corner of my heart.
Should I make a bouquet of Laprania flowers and give it to Freya? Then the wind will be less cold. Should I make a pinwheel and place it in Calian’s hand? Then the wind will be less cold.
I looked down at the statue for a while, which had become so lonely because it was so well made.
“Didn’t you say you would raise a dog?”
But once again, a voice containing the answer was heard. It was Randel who had just returned from a night walk, escorted by Euria, who had woken up from her sleep.
Arsene stood up for a moment and said hello, and then his blue eyes looked into Randel’s blue eyes. Then, he nodded, agreeing with Randel’s words.
“Are you talking about a puppy?”
“You always say that.”
“… Yes. That would be good.”
In the end, instead of giving her a bouquet of flowers or a pinwheel, which will only make her feel more lonely, all you have to do is give her a puppy.
Thinking like this, Arsene gathered his magic power again.
I didn’t worry about what kind of puppy to make. This is because the only dog that looked familiar enough for Arsene to create was ‘Jan’, a poodle raised at Duke Siegfried’s residence.
If you were a Calian after going to Camilon, you could either bring in a great desert dog that was said to be bigger than a human and raise it, or bring a black wolf or jaguar from somewhere, name it ‘dog’, and raise it as you please, but what can you do? Something only poodles know.
– Square, square!
The sound of ice being touched was heard again for a while longer.
Randel, who had started drinking the tea that Dan had brought him and said it was good for a good night’s sleep, did not tell Arsene to leave now. I just quietly lifted and put down my teacup and looked out the window.
“…… after.”
Before long, Arsene took his hand off the table and straightened his back.
Freya, Calian, Calian’s wind, and a dog that resembles Jan. The small statue that contains it all has finally been completed.
– Drurk!
Arsene stood up with a small sound. Then he opened his mouth to Randel.
“The Siren will be there tonight.”
“How long are you planning on doing that?”
“We plan to provide close escort until the prince is relieved.”
“Don’t worry.”
“yes.”
Because it was difficult to guarantee safety yet, Euria announced that she would be escorting. Then, he wrapped the statue in a red silk cloth that he had prepared at the request of one of the Vulcan agents and carefully placed it in his wizard’s pocket.
“I’ll just go now.”
Randel nodded.
And Arsene opened his mouth again.
“Good luck.”
Randel did not answer. This is because he understood that the second greeting was addressed to Euria, not to himself.
“Uh, go.”
“Yes, Chairman of the Association.”
A short answer was heard from where no one was.
Arsene answered with a grin and came out of Randel’s room. And then he walked briskly towards the study where Freyr was.
It would be better if I showed this to Calian, but didn’t Calian call this statue a ‘carrot’? If there was a stick, there would be no reason to delay giving the carrot, so I would bring it to him right away.
– Tap, tap, tap.
I took a step.
I passed through the hallway of the VIP room, went down the stairs, and walked again. Towards the study where Freyr is deep in the lord’s castle.
The wind blows.
I love that wind, so I can’t help but hum.
– ……Tap.
I stopped walking.
Deep in the lord’s castle, in front of Freyr’s study.
Arsene stopped quietly and glared at the door of Freyr’s study.
– Saaaa…….
A thick cold feeling gathers at the tips of my fingers.
Soon Arsene put his hand on the door of the study. However, instead of opening the study door, he closed his eyes for a moment and opened them. There was a cool glow in his blue eyes, which had suddenly turned sharp.
The unique smell of sand and wind.
The smell of prey that you will never forget until you die.
‘…… A wolf.’
Wolf of the Great Desert.
Their scent was hovering in front of Freyr’s study.
* * *
Poisonous blood flows.
The poison contained in the blood spreads.
Harpies, elves and humans.
The red eyes that had been silently watching the three’s battle from afar blinked down and found their proper place.
“I’m anxious… Demirea.”
A small self-talk is heard through the wind.
‘Are you saying there were harpies?’
‘yes. Master. But instead of the magic stone, it was a harpy with a Zeon stone.’
‘I don’t know why… Anyway, the harpy’s poison must be strong, are you okay?’
‘My brother is addicted, but it’s because Brother Randel is there. It’s okay.’
‘Prince Randel must have taken his time.’
‘That’s it.’
‘is it so. Still, I’m glad that there doesn’t seem to be any major trouble. If you happen to encounter the same guy again, don’t hesitate and call me.’
‘I’m a harpy… are you sure you don’t mind that?’
‘it’s okay. ‘Nothing bigger than the prince’s life coming and going will happen right now.’
‘……Okay then. If we ever meet again, I’ll tell my teacher.’
‘Do so. And even on your way back, be careful not to step on that ground. ‘It’s a stronger poison than I thought.’
‘yes. I won’t forget.’
It is said that one should not step on soil that is young with harpy poison.
Alan said it was a stronger poison than expected.
Blink again.
Is it because of the poison that splattered on my hand, or because I inhaled the poisonous air from the ground I stepped on? I thought of Plantz, who had never thought about the exact reason why he was poisoned by the harpy’s poison. Then he turned his head again and looked at Harpy and Dmirea, who were starting to bleed.
“I don’t want to see my fiancé die again… I do.”
Calian muttered as if laughing.
However, he did not do anything such as disobey his orders to remain calm and step forward or send the Auror’s sword flying to help Siona and Demirea. Therefore, neither Siona nor Demirea continued the fight without much concern for Calian, who stood behind them.
– …… Wow.
Instead, under their feet. On the ground where the dark red blood of a harpy was left like a brand. A wide and thin shield was spread out there.
– Saaaaa…!
The wind blew toward the Harpy from behind Dmirea. Like Whitlin, where the wind is good.
Blocking the sword-using Dmirea with a shield will only serve as a hindrance. The shield and wind summoned like that helped Demirea.
– Excited!
-…… I’m crying!
I helped him so gently so that no one would notice unless he was aware of it.
It may have been a useless act, but whatever. You can think of it as a preparation just in case.
Still, it’s like that because I did such a pointless thing.
– Ugh! Ugh!
Isn’t it nice to see such a wonderful sight?
That would be fine.
“That’s cool. My fiancé.”
Just as time does not necessarily have to be visible to pass, and the wind does not necessarily have to be visible to blow.
…… I thought.
I felt like it was a really cool lie.
“Are you out of your mind? Now.”
scolded.
“I told you to be quiet, but you didn’t listen to me.”
Unfortunately, I lost my senses at that exact moment and was caught.
I couldn’t hide the smell of blood any longer, so it got caught. It seems like not only are secrets easily discovered, but even the things that get you scolded are easily discovered.
As soon as Siona caught him from falling to the floor, Calian opened his eyes again and smiled brightly.
“I’m worried. I’m afraid my fiancé will get hurt.”
I can feel the wounds on my side healing quickly, as my aura has decreased significantly due to using magic in as wide a range as possible, and the venomous energy is disappearing again. I can also feel Demirea’s gaze staring at me as if there isn’t a single corner I really like.
Demirea looked at Calian for a while and sighed.
“… I will not accept compensation for saving you, prince.”
“Do you think I saved you too?”
“Yes. It will be the same price.”
“okay.”
Calian let out a small laugh as if he was happy to be recognized, but then closed his mouth. This is why I had to hold the blood rising from the poison to the back of my neck.
It would be great if I could collect all the poisonous energy in my body and spit it out like Alan. For now, the best thing to do is to block it with aura to prevent even the healthy parts from being poisoned. Still, at least it’s okay to be alive like this.
“I don’t think Freyja was this reckless either. You are truly terrible.”
“A son must have at least one advantage over his mother.”
Calian answered Siona, who clicked her tongue, and looked down at her clothes. Now I can see things I hadn’t paid attention to before.
– Jabak.
Calian’s feet, which were half-leaning on Siona, moved forward. At the same time, the dark red blood stains disappeared from the light pink jacket.
Demirea let out a long sigh and quickly moved one step towards the training ground. Before entering the fight, I heard from Siona that two people’s voices could be heard inside the training hall. The idea was to call them and return to Yeongju Castle.
“It looks like he went to the back of the training room.”
“It’s not there, Demirea.”
But the voices of Siona and Calian stopped Demirea. Calian slightly turned his head to look at Siona and let out a thin voice.
“As Siona said. There was a binge drinking earlier. It will be at the back of the training center.”
“Are you saying there’s another fight? But why are you so relaxed here? Let me go.”
“No… not a fight.”
“Or not.”
“I’ll tell you. But don’t pick up the knife, Demirea. It’s dangerous if you use the knife carelessly now.”
“Why do you say that about a knife?”
Flash.
Calian, who regained his senses, gave an answer.
“I think I’m here.”
“Who are you saying came?”
“Rashid Brissen.”
Demirea’s feet suddenly stop.
He must have remembered again why he came here. It is clear that Rashid Briesen’s words about targeting Yan came back to mind. The hand holding the sword sheath was gaining strength.
“I was wrong. It’s not Rashid Briesen.”
“Or who is it?”
“I can’t explain at length right now. I’m sick, Dmirea.”
Anyway, it’s not Rashid.
Kalian said this and placed his hand on the handle of Dmirea’s sword. He meant to ask her not to pull it out carelessly, and Dmirea nodded quietly. Looking at Dmirea like that, he smiled gratefully
. Calian stopped quietly.
“Aren’t you going? If he had come to visit, he would have run away a long time ago.”
“… That’s not it. “I told you, but I thought you wouldn’t listen to me.”
Kalian, who was pouring a lot of patience toward Rashid, drew a long line with his red lips. Since it
wasn’t Rashid who was targeting Jan, Dmirea got even angrier at Rashid. There may be nothing to do, but it’s not Calian. He probably knows a lot, so he wonders if he can endure facing a guy who can’t be killed right away. He couldn’t guarantee that, so he stopped for a moment. Soon, Calian took a long breath and looked up
. He shook
his head and slowly moved his feet again,
forgetting that the sound of his own footsteps
had disappeared
.
“I don’t know.”
“Because I’m smart.”
I’m so smart that there’s no situation where I’m scared. No matter what I see, my judgment comes first, so in this situation, how can I be scared when Rashid is in front of me? I nod. I lower my head
appropriately
. Rashid, who hesitated, moved the hand holding the sword. Seeing this, Eila raised the sword in the same way, but Planz did not move. Rashid, who smiled at Eila, quietly
raised the sword.
– Clap!
And slowly moved the hand to place the sword in its sheath. Put it in.
“I know one thing,”
Rashid said, and Plantz did not reply. Rashid,
who shrugged his shoulders as if he knew it, continued,
“You recognize me better than my mother. “I understand that now.”
“I don’t plan on becoming friends.”
“Are you sure you were just saying this to socialize? “I said it out of surprise, so don’t worry about it.”
“I didn’t use it.”
“Thank goodness.”
Rashid took a step back.
This was because Planz had come between Eila and Rashid, so the distance between them was too close. . As much as they face each other.
“I tried to get rid of the Marquis of Briesen myself.”
“I know.”
“I was uncomfortable with someone taking what I was aiming for, so I tried not to let it be taken away this time. I guess the situation is…”
“Get to the point. Shortly.”
I’m so tired.
I’ve been talking too much lately. There are only people around me who talk a lot. Except for my brother’s new subordinate and Kirie, everyone talks a lot. “I’ll hand over the Marquis of
Briesen, so please lift the wanted order for me. . There are a lot of inconveniences as I go from place to place.”
Rashid said this as he thought.
Eila, who couldn’t have liked what he said, frowned, and Plantz replied,
“Why me?”
Rashid laughed and spoke again. “ I
’m sure you have a lot of questions.” About me.”
“Not really,”
Plantz answered firmly.
I had no intention of being fooled by flattery.
Wasn’t my younger brother like that? When making deals, he was smart and clever… No. He considered it carefully and took the loss. Make a deal that you won’t see.
“Or whose life will I have to take to untie the 1st Prince’s heart…” ” Not
at all.”
I’m not curious.
I’m really not curious about that at all.
“Oh my… …. It’s a pity. Since you get along so well with the third prince, I thought you wouldn’t have a bad relationship with your eldest brother either.”
“I was mistaken.”
“Are you mistaken?”
“They’re just cheap things. It’s the price of your life.”
Despite Plantz’s attitude as if he already knew the seal of oath in Randel’s heart, and his response that Randel’s life was cheaper than saving Rashid’s life, Rashid just smiled quietly. That’s right.
Flanz
. Tsu took a step back and put his hand on his sword. He couldn’t come up with words that were appealing enough to keep Rashid alive. “If there’s nothing more.” “Do you keep trying to put your head down like
that
? “It’s not fun, sir.”
These words were full of confidence not only for Plantz and Aila present here, but also for Demirea, Siona, and Calian on the other side. Plantz, who almost frowned at those words, quietly looked at Rashid.
“then. How about this?”
“Well.”
“That black cat that takes so much care of you. Someone told me an interesting story about that black cat. Are you interested in finding out who it is?”
Zeon or Danu.
I thought you would give me their secrets in exchange for information about them. I’ll give you information about them, so you can kill Gray Brisen in return. I thought you would say otherwise.
“That’s an interesting story.”
“That black cat smells like sea salt.” The
corners of Plantz’s eyes narrowed.
The corners of Rashid’s mouth went up.
“I heard… “That
‘s why the warrior sent from Zeon had the appearance of Chase. He said he would tell me about him.
That would be of some value.
Thinking this, Plantz opened his mouth. But then
– clank.
Suddenly, a heavy metal sound was heard. .
The sound was heard from somewhere other than the three of us right now. Plantz, who heard the unexpected sound, turned his head.
“Ha…”
And without realizing it, he let out a long sigh.
Siona and I were close by his side. Calian was standing close to him. In addition, this was because he saw Demirea standing there, who had found out that the secret of another fiancé had been leaked.
Plantz, who closed his eyes tightly, opened his mouth.
“I speak first . Don’t listen, Duke.”
Wait a minute,
Duke.
Let me explain.
That’s roughly what it meant.
Shouldn’t we stop my younger brother from breaking off the engagement?
