Reborn as the Enemy Prince

Chapter 76. When I said yap, he yuk(1)

and did not turn his head in the direction where Kalyan was.

He didn’t even look at the few remaining enemies.

As Ronansite, who had helped Slayman, who was turning black up to his neck from the poison running up his upper body, sit down, and looked around looking for a healer, Randel stepped forward.

– Paaaaah!

Then he immediately began treating Slayman. Of course, it was about half a span away from Slayman’s body.

The red healing power was said to be due to the influence of the stone in Randel’s heart. Even though the power to heal others, not the stone, comes from Randel’s divine power and fake divine power, the stone in the heart stubbornly revealed its existence as if it had to change even the white light of divine power to red.

Slayman, Ronansite, and even Lemaine, who were still standing on the edge of the cliff looking at Calian, looked surprised when they saw the red light extending out like that, but Randel did not even look at their faces. Without paying attention to anything other than Slayman’s wounds, he just continued to use his healing power without saying a word.

– Pajik Pajijik!

– Boo!

– Kwasik!

Meanwhile, Euria did not rest and eliminated the few remaining enemies. It became Ronansite’s job to plunge the sword into the hearts of those escaping from Euria.

– Tadadat!

Eila and Kirie moved quickly. He began to search through the bodies scattered here and there and collect the scattered daggers.

Plantz guessed the reason and took a step forward. And when he reaches for the dagger stuck in the heart of the corpse seen a few steps ahead.

– Ugh!

I felt a slight movement of magical power.

It’s teleportation.

– Slurp!

Planz reacted almost at the same time and drew his sword. Immediately after that, a Zeon wizard appeared right in front of Plantz. Planz’s sword stretched out without delay and headed towards the wizard’s heart.

– Hwiik!

– Kaang! Kaga River!

The sword bounces off the shield he unfolds.

He raised his sword and swung it again.

– Kaga River! Kang!

– Kagang!

The shield blinks.

Magical power is concentrated in the guy’s hands.

– Bang!

Sinastar, which returned well-repaired through Demirea, was divided into two. Plantz struck the shield hard with the sword in his right hand. The shield flickered and lost power once again.

Plantz, who did not miss the moment, stretched out his left hand.

– Phew!

A gray Sinastar was lodged deep inside the guy’s body.

Red healing light surrounds the wizard’s body. Although it cannot heal others, the power of the stone moves to heal one’s own body.

Plantz raised his sword once again.

The moment you try to plunge your sword into him once more

– Kwajik!

Another gray sword lunged behind him, piercing through his heart and sticking out through his chest.

“Are you okay?”

It was Kirie.

Kirie, seeing Plantz nod, drew his sword.

– Coo!

The wizard’s lifeless body plummets.

The thirtieth enemy.

The last one stopped breathing like that.

– Jump and jump.

After confirming that there were no more enemies left, Euria turned around. And only then did he make eye contact with Lemain, giving him a simple example and then looking around.

Soon Euria’s mouth opened.

“Lord Bern. Prince Calian is not here.”

The leg is gone.

Lemain and Slayman Ronansite are back.

However, this was said because Kalyan was not there.

“We have to cross to the other side. I will come.”

Instead of explaining why Calian was not there, Kirie only said this. And he pointed with his hand to where Lemain was looking.

Only then did Euria, who realized what kind of situation Calian was in, open her mouth.

“Use the teleport and you’ll get down quickly. I’ll be there.”

“The prince told me to stay on this side, Lord Siren.”

“It may be quick to cross the valley and rescue the prince, but we can’t climb up the cliff all the way back up here. We need all the power to protect the group here until they each come down from the mountain and rejoin us.”

Eila and Kirie stopped Euria.

Because Euria, our main force, cannot be left alone in a situation where we don’t know when Slayman will get better. So isn’t it a situation where we can’t all move together down that steep valley?

“Then you’re going to go down that valley naked?”

“Yes, it is.”

There was no other way.

Euria’s ice was not as strong and hard as the aurors used by Calian, so even if one were to create a single leg made of ice, it would not be able to withstand the weight of a person. There were no trees long enough to reach the other side of the valley, nor ropes that could be tied to arrows to connect the two sides.

There is also no time to find other means.

“Prince, there is no answer anymore.”

Even if it wasn’t Aila’s words, I could guess it.

Calian, hanging on the cliff, was not moving at all. I couldn’t tell if I was out of my mind or tired. I can only hope that the red aura wrapped around the hairpin and wrist does not disappear in an instant.

Eila, who had recovered most of the daggers, walked towards the cliff.

– Jeopuk.

Plantz blocked his path.

“Give it to me.”

Eila looked at Planz.

It was one letter too short to understand right away, so Plantz added.

“Whether you carry it or drag it, I’m better.”

Kirie was going to go with me anyway. You might run into them while bringing Kalyan back. So Kirie had to hold a sword. In that case, the other person has to either lift that damned little brother up and carry him or drag him along. It was also said that it would be better to go with Plantz, who would not have much strength in this side, rather than Aila, who is smaller than Kalian.

“You haven’t withered much.”

Eila muttered with a slight smile and nodded. Then he handed over a dozen daggers in his hand to Plantz. I said I was the type of person who would jump on the terrace even up to the 4th floor. I thought it would be easy to go down the cliff.

Planz immediately understood why Eila said that, but pretended not to hear and accepted the dagger.

And after sharing it with Kirie, I walked to the edge of the cliff. Lemain, who had been silent until now, opened his mouth to Plantz.

“Planz.”

“Please stay. I will bring you.”

“… I’m sorry. Because of me.”

“It’s not your fault, Your Highness.”

Plantz answered decisively and stood at the edge of the cliff.

Kirie, who had one dagger in each hand and the rest in her arms, stepped down the cliff first. Planz, who had learned how to go down after looking at it for a moment, turned and stood.

“… be careful…”

A voice full of hesitation was heard.

Plantz, facing Lemain, smiled inexplicably.

“Yes, Your Highness.”

And then I started to follow Kyrie down.

As good as he is, he has no measures, is good at accidents, and is alive.

Pick up your damn little brother.

* * *

Fortunately or not.

I didn’t lose my mind.

– Can you hear me?

– Prince.

– I can not hear that?

However, I was exhausted. Actually, I was very tired. So much so that I can’t even think about giving even a simple answer to the welcoming voice that keeps coming.

– I’m crying!

A lump of blood that no longer needed to be swallowed came out of my lip. It flows down my chin and drips down.

If you just pick up a sword, you will get these four moons.

If Chase found out that he had gotten to this point after only dealing with a few warriors, he would click his tongue. Perhaps, if it had been Bern, this situation would never have happened.

– I’m going down now.

– Just wait a moment.

Aila’s voice continued to be heard.

Flash.

Calian slowly opened his eyes and let out a long breath. And I moved my remaining arm to try to go down even a little bit.

– Thick!

A sharp pain rang through my head.

It was his left arm that was holding on to the auror connected to one of the hairpins, but the pain was actually coming from his right arm. When I wrapped Aila’s hairpin and flew towards the cliff, I wrapped the remaining aura around my right arm to reduce the impact of hitting the rock. Maybe the shock wasn’t all absorbed.

It looks like your arm is broken.

Below article.

It’s better than being thrown down there and having your limbs shattered.

– I came to my senses. are you okay.

As I regained my composure thanks to my broken arm, I spoke to Aela. Then, Aila’s answer came straight away.

– are you okay?

– You worry more than I thought.

– You should be worried. He is a person who entrusted his life to one of my hairpins.

Calian chuckled.

– Enough to not die.

– Okay then. I’m on my way to pick up the prince, so please wait a moment.

– okay.

– Don’t let go of what you’re holding on to.

– …… Yes, Aila.

– yes.

Calian nodded his invisible head and let out a short sigh. I spit out the blood that was leaking with my breath and closed my eyes again.

Calian’s left hand glowed red.

Even if I was hanging from a cliff, it was still okay to rest for a while. I said I couldn’t do anything, so I asked them to save me on my own, but that doesn’t mean I can’t really hang at this height and wait.

– Get it!

After making his decision, Calian strongly moved the Auror that was supporting his body to the other side of the cliff. Aila’s hairpin, pulled out by that force, fell down the cliff. Of course, Kalian’s body also fell again.

– Ugh!

Calian, who was constantly using his auror, held a sharp sword in his left hand. Kalian swung it and hit the cliff.

The falling body stops with a strong repulsive force.

My broken right arm was moving uncontrollably and my mind wandered again, but I didn’t pay much attention to it. Instead, I held my sword and took a breath. And the sword was removed again.

It falls off again.

Once again, he plunges the sword he created into the cliff.

– Kwasik!

There was no need to find a gap. There is no reason why it cannot hit a rock, no matter how hard it is.

Five or six times like that.

After repeatedly falling and stopping.

for the first time.

-…… Tak.

Calian’s feet touched the floor.

Calian let out a long breath and stood upright, leaning on a rock. And then he moved his legs shakily. I took a few steps to the place I had been staring at from before.

– Bruises. Bruises.

At the place where his feet stopped, he swallowed the fishy taste in his mouth and bowed down.

I pulled it out without any hesitation and dropped it on the floor.

I picked up Aila’s hairpin and placed it in my arms.

Because I said it was pretty. I have to return it.

– Tuk!

Calian, who was leaning his entire body against the large rock nearby, tapped the back of his head.

“Ah… I really don’t know anymore.”

He didn’t fall off the bridge and die, came down the cliff easily, and took Aila’s strong hairpin with him. So I really don’t know anymore.

Calian muttered this and quietly closed his eyes.

If I go back, I really will somehow.

I will definitely increase the number of circles, starting with one circle.

While making that promise.

* * *

The capital city of Kairisis, located north of Kairis.

If you pass the main gate of the outer castle that surrounds the entire Kairisis, cross the ever-quiet Seneu River, and drive a certain distance north again, you will see an inner castle that is rarely closed.

When you enter through the three inner gates in all directions except the north, you will see Einansha Street and Astrisha Street, the residences of nobles. While taking in the luxury of the streets and the Royal Forest in the distance, if you head a little further north, you can visit Cispanian Square and Hatsuara Square, which are symmetrical squares based on the royal road.

You can reach this place only after passing by those two squares. This is a place you can only encounter after passing the outer and inner castles and continuing towards the north. Kairis, which means ‘place where spring comes’, is a place where we always face a long winter.

This is the Kairis Palace.

Geographical advantages, living conditions, and a favorable location for improving relations with other countries. It was a royal palace that Hatsuara had decided on the location and built as he pleased, thinking only of Sispanians, who said, “I like snow and I don’t like things that are stuffy,” without even calculating such issues in the slightest. Still, it is a very brave thing to have established a place where a huge river passes.

Anyway.

The vast area extending from the palace to the forest north of the palace was the Cispanian ‘territory’. Of course, the vicinity of Siegfried’s duchy’s inner city is Sispanian land, but that place is not Kairisis, so let’s explain it except that.

“The forest to the north of the palace leads directly into the palace. I think it will be okay to be cautious but not too concerned.”

At Arsene’s words, some of the four division commanders and one corps commander gathered in the conference room of the Wilhelm Pavilion nodded.

“Danu said you can’t open a path through Sispanian territory.”

“Yes, that’s right, Commander. As you know, the path through the forest was used during the Prince’s Rosellita. For that reason, the path was only opened to the nearby forest and not to Siegfried’s Territory.”

“That could be a lie. Just because elves can’t lie doesn’t mean Danu can do the same.”

“Don’t worry, Division Commander Zeia. Even if there is an intrusion into the forest area of the palace, isn’t there a Sispianian protection spell? And I, too, will continue to keep an eye on the interior of the palace.”

“… I understand, Corps Commander. Then shall we send the members only towards the royal forest?”

Alan opened his mouth to reply to Needlen’s words. However, another division commander next to Needlen spoke a little earlier.

“But didn’t Prince Calian give a special request to the corps commander? Wouldn’t it be better to activate the palace’s protection magic right now?”

“If His Highness had been in the palace, he would have done as Division Commander Iveka said. However, not only His Highness, but also His Majesty the Crown Prince and the two princes were publicly absent this morning. In a situation where everyone knew that the palace was empty, the protection magic was hastily activated. “If things go well, things could get bigger.”

This meant that it would be viewed as an attempt to usurp the throne rather than protecting the royal family.

The other two division commanders, Damian and Palton, who had been quiet so far, nodded as if they agreed with Alan’s answer. And Arsene, who had the same thoughts as them, added.

“Since your Majesty and all the princes are away, I believe it is not too late to use protection magic after the situation has occurred. Even if a certain amount of damage is caused due to a delay in responding, it is better than hastily announcing that something has gone wrong in the palace. In fact, what needs to be protected is not the entire palace, but the ruins of Arpia Palace and the old Heisia Palace.”

Lemain, Planz Randel and Kalyan.

If there are people who need to be protected as a top priority, you can activate the protection magic and risk notifying the outside world that the palace is in danger. However, the only people currently staying in the palace were Balkan members, various servants, and Arianne, who was being guarded by Teilan.

Even if there is an external invasion and damage occurs, the worst situation where the royal family is harmed does not occur. So, it was better to take the damage rather than make a hasty move and create unnecessary confusion. As Arsene said, the only places that Balkan must ultimately protect are Arpia Palace, where the throne and crown are located, and the ruins of the old Heisia Palace.

no.

More accurately, it should be called the axis of time.

“Yes. I understand what you mean, Vice Commander.”

The only people here who know exactly what is inside the cavity are Alan and Arsene. Others only knew the cavity as ‘a place containing important Sispanian treasures’. Nevertheless, no one questioned the fact that it had to be protected just like Arpia Palace. It was said to be a Cispanian treasure and nothing else, so there was no way there would be any objection.

“Then, send 30 wizards and 300 knights from the crew at the outer castle back to the palace. Instead, send 50 wizards and 300 knights from the palace to the royal forest first. Complete maintenance before the sun sets and recruit that many people. Let’s send more. I think we can go to the forest together with Division Commander Zeia and Division Commander Iveka.”

“All right.”

“Don’t forget the communication items. I’ll be keeping an eye on you.”

“Yes, Corps Commander.”

“The royal palace staff will be divided into three, one will be at the Arpian Palace, the other will be at the Cispanian Common, and the rest will be on standby.”

“I understand, Corps Commander.”

The short meeting is over.

It was a battle with Zeon, which he might have encountered for the first time. Those who looked somewhat nervous ahead of this went out of the conference room.

If you really encounter Zeon’s forces, how should you fight, what should you pay attention to, who should you keep alive and who should you kill? There was no separate mention of that.

This is because they have already received an excessive amount of training and education from Arsene and Plantz, who know their strength better than anyone else because they have encountered them directly.

– Drurk!

– …… Jeopuk. Jerk.

After a while, Alan stood up and walked around the conference room at a slow pace. The sound of serious footsteps continued with each step.

“Nothing much should happen yet…”

The worry-filled self-talk resonates throughout the conference room and then disappears.

* * *

– Crispy!

– Patter!

The dagger that was stuck in a weak place came out without any help. Between them, a finger-sized piece of stone fell to the floor.

– Kwaduk!

Holding the dagger firmly embedded in a crevice of a rock with his right hand, Plantz looked for the next place for support and stabbed the dagger in his left hand once again, sinking the dagger into a crevice in another rock.

After shaking it a few times to check whether the newly inserted dagger was solid, Planz pulled out the right dagger again. Then I scanned the area for a gap in the rock that would support it. But then

– Chaeng!

An unpleasant sound is heard from the tip of my right hand.

It was the sound of the dagger being pulled out breaking in half. It was unable to withstand the weight of its entire body.

Planz’s body was tilted to one side due to the momentary loss of balance. Then chin. Kirie, who was a little below, stretched out her arm and grabbed Plantz’s body.

Plantz quickly took out a new dagger and stuck it into a crevice in the rock. After regaining my balance, I let out a short sigh.

“Be careful.”

“okay.”

Planz lowered his head for a moment and looked down.

The floor, which had been so far away, was getting much closer.

The bodies of those who fell down the cliff and died are seen in more detail. Planz, looking away from it, pulled out the left dagger and extended it downward again.

– Kwaaak!

It takes strength to close your mouth tightly.

Damn you.

He’s like an enemy.

– Kwaaak!

I was actually a little hesitant about running out of the 4th floor terrace, but this guy made me go down this cliff. He said he would tell me what was on the mountain, but he never said he would tell me what kind of hardships there could be.

Just meet him.

– Kaang!

– Quad deuk!

So, I came down the cliff with all sorts of evil thoughts going on inside me. I forgot to think about how many times my feet slipped and how many daggers I broke, I climbed down that long cliff.

I swallowed a curse as I walked past the bodies that were twisted beyond recognition. I was prepared for something like that to happen, so I walked to the place where the crazy guy who cut off his leg was, stepping on sharp rocks and crossing with my feet in the strong, bloody current.

– Jump and jump.

So I finally arrived.

A guy leaning against a large rock.

A terrible guy who crawls down on my hand, walks a few steps, and stands without sitting down. The guy who was standing there with the smell of blood just as bad as that. Where there is a guy like that.

– Slurp.

The man’s deeply closed eyelids rose.

And then I looked at Kirie who went in front of me first.

“Kiri.”

“Yes, prince. Are you okay?”

“huh.”

I walked next to him.

I see bright red eyes smiling brightly.

“…… hey.”

I called out to him in a voice that suppressed my anger.

I guess you think I’m the only one who knows how to grab someone by the collar.

I know how to do that too. I know how to get angry too.

I will also tell you not to risk your life.

Me too, definitely.

Really definitely.

To that damn little brother.

“Ah… it’s my brother.”

I couldn’t say it.

I couldn’t say a single word during the long journey.

“……Go home.”

He just said something like this.
