Reborn as the Enemy Prince

Chapter 77. Listen to me for a moment (3)

The pure white half-moon blooming on my fingernails was gently revealed.

The flawless thumb is folded.

‘Our precious Hina.’

Is it really true that it belongs to the person using the sword?

Even when you think about it, the soft and smooth index finger is quite mysterious. This time it folded in.

‘My cute baby elephant.’

The long middle finger, where the bone joints smoothly connect, was also folded.

‘majesty.’

After folding my three fingers like this, I thought about it for a while.

And again.

There was someone.

‘Ah, Raven. ‘The kindest Raven in the world.’

The dark silver ring on my ring finger shined for a moment.

This is because the ring finger, the prettiest of the five pretty fingers, was quietly folded and reflected in the moonlight.

‘no. I think Raven knows.’

Doridori.

The pretty face with pale cheeks, thin jaw line, and sharp nose bridge denied something. At the same time, the ring finger, which was just straight, rose again, as if it had never held anything difficult before.

‘And again…’

A small wrinkle appears on his bright, round forehead.

‘So… again…’

The deep worry continued.

It’s rolling around.

The two eyes, redder than flowers and clearer than jewels, moved like beads.

‘There is none.’

The result that came out at the end of that consideration.

A hand with only three out of five fingers folded.

As she looked down at it, her thick, bright red lips pursed and then slightly opened. A quiet sigh flowed through them. When it rains, the rainwater settles, and when it snows, snowflakes rise up. Long, thick eyelashes go down for a while and then come up again.

So, right now, Calian was reflecting on Alan’s words, ‘It would be quicker to count the people who don’t know the prince’s secret.’ At least until I heard that, I think I had filled all five fingers, but now I was coming to the realization that even if I added Raven, I would still have fingers left.

‘…… three.’

There are three left.

I know everyone except three.

As expected, there is nothing wrong with what Master said. If you stop counting people you know and start counting people you don’t know, the answer comes out so quickly.

“Hmm…”

What should I do?

“…… under.”

Plan, who looked as cautious as if he was trying to decide what kind of meat to eat for dinner tonight, folded his fingers one by one and unfolded the one he had folded well. He was watching the behavior of my damn little brother, who I couldn’t help but love and hate. Tsu made a sound of getting older.

It’s obvious even if you don’t look into what it does. When you count who hasn’t caught your secret, you must have finally realized how many have been caught. I was so nervous when I almost got caught by my servant.

“I think Serenti is going through all the trouble for no reason.”

Plantz said this after looking at Euria’s eyes, which were filled with questions about the strange story she had just heard, and her younger brother’s eyes, which were full of questions about how I got caught again.

This is it.

Despite the fact that he is sleeping soundly, he is watching both materially and mentally to ensure that the existence of ‘Bern’ is not known. It almost makes him want to express his condolences to Serenti or someone else’s futile efforts, who are erasing the memories of mere humans and even covering the mouth of the great ancient dragon. am.

What’s the point of trying so hard to block it?

Everything is being discovered like that.

Sispanian probably knew that this guy was the youngest. Since there was no other place to use the remaining blessings, he poured it all into that bastard’s magnificent stomach and poured the rest into his ability to reveal secrets. Otherwise, it would have been discovered within a few hours after I opened my eyes again, and now, less than three years after starting my brilliant new life, there is no way such a miserable thing could have happened, with only three people left who don’t know the secret. . In common sense, this makes absolutely no sense. No matter how much I think about it, I can’t understand it with my head.

“First of all… Siren Siren.”

Calian, who had heard Plantz’s long sigh, opened his mouth.

“Yes, prince.”

“I know that I need to explain. I also knew that you had a lot of questions about me.”

Aren’t the doubts about Calian already piling up day by day? Arsene seemed to know something, so he asked several times, but the only answer he received was to believe and not doubt. I just couldn’t ask any more questions because I couldn’t confirm anything, but I didn’t give up my doubts.

‘Brother Chase.’

‘I guess I’ll die like this again.’

‘If I die again, disappear again, and come back to life again.’

However, although I vaguely understood what had happened, I overheard a sound that I did not understand. Euria, who had a puzzled expression on her face, gave an honest answer.

“Yes, that’s right. I had a lot of questions.”

Calian nodded.

“I’ll tell you. Is it okay if I organize what I want to say instead of here? Actually, I’m a little tired right now.”

Climbing mountains, cutting off bridges, hanging from cliffs, overcoming death threats… I even swung my sword at Chase’s face. Since I’ve had a very long day, I’d like to postpone the explanation until tomorrow.

Euria smiled slightly and answered those words.

“No way. You won’t come quietly before morning and then point your sword at me because you heard something you shouldn’t have heard.”

“Is there any way I could have left my brothers’ lives in the hands of someone whose secrets are lighter than mine?”

Calian, who understood that this was half-jokingly half-seriously, replied, and Euria’s face looked like it had confirmed once more what was obvious.

“Yes. Then, if you can explain at any time, I would be grateful.”

And like this.

It wasn’t a suspicion or anything like that, but I obediently accepted that it was something that could no longer be covered up due to the wizard’s curiosity.

Calian nodded and looked at Plantz.

“older brother.”

“why.”

Plantz looked at his younger brother, who may not be good at lying, but is good at hiding things, but when it comes to the most important issues, he can’t even hide the traces of chicken soup for cats at the end of Anne’s whiskers.

“Go in and sleep. I’m going to get some rest too.”

I am saying that you should follow Randel’s example and go get some sleep, as he said he went to sleep on his own. And then I said I would rest.

It’s not a good idea.

Kirie, who had already stayed up all night the night before, would still need to sleep, so there was no way she would try to sleep without Kirie. I know that he will be thinking about it all night, taking a break from fainting for a while while coming down the mountain.

How to further investigate the captured warrior of Zeon and what else to look into in the axis of time where only fragments remain. And more than anything, I need to tell Euria where and how far I should go so that the Duke doesn’t break off the engagement. Such concerns.

Plantz, who was staring at Calian, turned his head towards Euria. I thought I should shake off at least one of those concerns.

“It seems like Serenti is the one who created this situation, but that’s not accurate. Anyway, he said that time went back because of something called the time axis, which I told the president of the association about.”

Then he immediately began explaining the key points about my younger brother’s complex personal circumstances.

In any case, wouldn’t the Duke have at least spared his younger brother’s life if he believed that the secret became known because of me rather than because of his younger brother’s fluttering mouth? If you’re going to tell it anyway, it’s better to tell it all without having to hide it any further. It would be of great help if Euria knew about what would happen in the future.

“…….I will continue to listen, sir.”

“My brother was the younger brother of His Highness Chase, the original king of Secretia. He died at the hands of Vice Commander Hertz while trying to prevent ‘I’, who ascended the throne of Kyris, from invading Secretia by leading the Vulcans and taking over the axis of time. He was able to see again. “They said he was able to rise and was not in his original form, but in the body of my younger brother. So, as you can see, he is living again as my younger brother.”

After hearing this, Euria had a face immersed in deep thought.

Actually, rather than thinking, I was trying to understand Planz’s words. Rather than unrealistic stories about waking up again or going back in time, the overly calm way of saying that the person who died because of Arsene and me was my younger brother only added to the confusion.

Calian, seeing Euria like that, moved his hand.

-Why does your brother talk like that?

Instead, it was not enough to just open his mouth, but he sent a reprimand for the vague explanation that was given in detail without hiding even the slightest hint of the relationship of support when conveying the facts.

In the end, Planz, who was thinking that the water arrow he shot had given him this fortune, looked into his younger brother’s bright red eyes.

“I’m taking responsibility.”

And he gave an answer like a pea that grew up like this.

Of course, it was the sound of Demirea looking for carbonated water that Calian would be excited to hear, but in any case, responsibility is responsibility.

* * *

For some reason, a halo of moon was forming.

I was about to see the sun rising over the mountains for the first time in a long time, but the sky was dark. Then, before long, it started to rain lightly.

Arsene, who was up on the rooftop to guard the surrounding area and get some fresh air, drank the beer in his hand. The wind was cool and it was nice to hear the sound of rain hitting the large ice curtain over my head.

“Then why drink beer if someone attacks you again?”

“The president of the association is here. The prince is there, and Lord Verne and Lord Brigitte are there, so I don’t have to be gone for a while. I’ll just have one drink.”

Arsene turned his head after answering this sudden voice. Then, after taking a walk around the area and seeing Euria, who had just completed her inspection, I patted the seat next to me with my palm.

“Please sit down for a moment.”

Euria, who had already planned to rest for a while, went there and sat down. Arsene’s barrier widened slightly, blocking the rain from falling on Euria’s head.

“Is the guy you captured alive okay?”

“Uh, I put it in a magic-controlled prison. There are knights here, and Sir Brigitte and Sir Bern are taking turns watching it.”

Arsene shook his head and held out a beer bottle and an empty glass. Euria saw that and shook her head.

“The beer is okay. I’ll go down there later to have a Himolica.”

“Are you taking me too?”

“I’m going with Sir Bridget. The prince.”

“You said it was strange to drink with a prince, but then you said you would go together.”

“I thought it was a child. I thought it wasn’t, so I had to drink.”

“Ah… about the prince…”

“Uh, I heard. At dawn.”

You got caught again.

Arsene, who immediately grasped the situation, shook his head. Then, looking at Euria, he opened his mouth.

“I thought the president of the association wouldn’t believe that.”

“I didn’t believe it originally.”

A story that resolves all doubts, including skills that are too strong for one’s age, behavior that cannot be understood simply because he is a prince, bold actions, appearances that seem to have changed overnight, and relationships with the King of Secretia and the three sons. I won. Still, it was difficult to accept it all.

“I can’t understand that. Your Majesty just casually said that and then said that I would believe it, but you looked at me like, “Why don’t you believe me?” and said that it’s natural for the prince not to believe you, so if you have any more questions, ask me. So there’s nothing you can do. You have to believe it.”

Arsene chuckled.

Then he gulped down half of the remaining beer in his glass again.

“You believed that and still stuck with it.”

“Anyway, the only one I saw was the current prince, but the prince was a different person on the inside. Is there a reason why I shouldn’t be there?”

“Other than that…”

Euria, who had been talking like this, closed her mouth.

I thought that she might not know that Calian died at the hands of Arsene. That’s why.

“I know that the prince turned a blind eye to my hand, President of the Association. They are sticking next to our prince without knowing it.”

“… They are great too.”

I heard a new compliment.

Calian, Planz, Arsene, etc. Anyway, there are no normal guys at all.

“Our prince is a good person. This is the president of the association. I’m not saying it’s okay for you to keep me by your side even though you know who I am. He’s just a good person.”

“Because of that incident we met on the bridge?”

“He too. Don’t you know what I did in the Great Desert?”

“I took revenge.”

“Because they are from the same tribe as the warriors who killed my family, because they know those warriors, and because they have the same thoughts as those warriors. I killed them all for various reasons, Chairman of the Association.”

“Uh. know. I saw it too.”

Gulp.

Arsene opened his mouth after taking another few sips of the remaining beer.

“They were all the same and they were all bad guys, so I killed them. So, there are many people who died without even knowing who the blue-haired wizard was trying to kill me or why he was trying to kill me.” “I guess so.” “It’s

not

that I regret that now. Anyway, the prince didn’t do that.”

“You say you saved him. “Knowing all that.”

“Yes. At first, he seemed like a good person, but as he went through things, he became strong, and as I watched him, I realized that he was a person who wandered around a lot, so it seemed like he was watching me floating around, not being able to find his place. So I decided to keep following it. But now that I know that fact, I don’t need any other reasons anymore, I’m just glad that he’s a really good person.” Euria, who listened to the sound of raindrops

hitting

the ice for a moment, slowly nodded.

“Yes.”

“I will definitely become a prince someday. We will erect a statue, President of the Association.”

Euria ended up laughing because of the great praise she was making tirelessly. Then, she said words of encouragement that could never be considered cheering.

“I will prepare something pretty for Annerusia.”

“Yes. Please prepare something pretty.”

Immediately, Arsene let out a long breath. He

then looked at Euria and opened his mouth.

“But can you buy me Annerusia a little sooner?”

“A little sooner, sometime.”

“After I go to Kairisis.”

“Are you going to make a statue as soon as we get there?”

“I’m going to go to the Seneu River. It’s almost been three years.”

Those were words that other people wouldn’t understand.

But Euria, who could understand them better than anyone else, looked a little surprised and a little happy and answered.

“Little one. I guess I finally have the heart to talk.”

“I said that to the corps commander. You have to tell the prince about your son, so he can be your son.”

“You’ve said all the great things.”

Arsene grinned after hearing the praise.

A quiet voice continued.

“But after saying those things, I also reflected. “Master, you’re not the only one who didn’t say anything.”

“Yes. “You didn’t either.”

“Yes. I didn’t either.”

“I did… right.”

“Yes. “I wanted to say at least once that my teacher was like a father… but in the end I couldn’t.” In the end, I couldn’t

stand by the Senyu River holding flowers.

Even after he closed his eyes, he couldn’t tell me what he thought of the teacher who raised him all his life. In the end, I couldn’t do it. Instead of floating the flowers on the river, I just stood there blocking the bridge.

“What are you so scared of?”

“That’s right. “What are you so afraid of?”

“Now. “Can you do it?”

“Now. Yes.”

Euria stretched out her hand because she knew that Arsene was afraid of being rejected and was happy to hear that he would send flowers and tell her. Then, she patted Arsene’s shoulder and said, “Yes

. I’ll buy it for you.”

“Yes.”

“I’ll buy you a lot of pretty things.”

“Your association president.”

Todok todok.

The rainwater that fell quietly rolled down again.

* * *

Late afternoon or noon.

A rainy day. Calian, who I didn’t like very much, smiled brightly at the person sitting across from him.

“I’m glad to hear that there is no major problem.”

The person who heard that, Emilia, the Margrave of Shurinz, bowed her head deeply. She was quite close to the Margrave. Count Aizen Aprin, also known as Sai, said hello.

“Thanks to you, Prince. Thank you very much.”

What thanks.

The knights were searching the surrounding area, so even if it wasn’t Calian, they would have found it before long. Of course, Calian was the one who knew the truth best. “He is the person who will protect this villa

. . Isn’t it something that should be done, of course?”

Nevertheless, Calian worked so hard to take credit.

Isn’t that only natural? We don’t know what more incidents will happen in the future, so what’s the harm in leaving things to be repaid here and there? ”

….. “My brother, His Majesty, said. So, since I also had to put in effort in the search, I am ashamed to stand before the Margrave’s gratitude.”

And I gave the credit to the pea.

I looked at the prickly grass with a look of horrified shame at your flashy words that I didn’t even mean to say. Pea, who was picking up the pea, looked at the Margrave’s eyes towards him and said,

“That’s enough.”

“… My brother, your Majesty, always shows such humility. You always serve as a role model for me, so as a younger brother, I am just grateful every day I see you.”

Euria, who was sitting two seats next to the Margrave and raising a glass of water, cleared her throat quietly. Euria and the Margrave Arsene, who was sitting between them and already drinking his fourth glass of water, looked at the ceiling for a moment.

Unlike those two, take a look at Kirie and Aela, who were standing with perfect expressions. People were wearing a little gold on their mouths depending on the occasion. You should know that. Anyway, what are wizards?

“Don’t you think so, brother Randel?”

“You’re saying meaningless things again.”

Ha. Even

Cornstalk isn’t helping you.

“…… That’s right. Just like Brother Randel said, I can’t be more happy about it.”

Calian, who was struggling alone in the banquet hall on a rainy day, smiled. He made a face that turned the damp atmosphere into a flower field in full bloom in an instant, and he managed to finish lunch like that. After that,

on the way back to the room.

“Kalian.”

Plantz, who couldn’t stand the threat, followed along. Calian, who

stopped quietly, looked at Randel next to him and answered,

“It’s not a ploy.”

What kind of ploy did he have again? Planz asked Calian again, who had answered beforehand because he knew he would ask if he was talking nonsense. “Then

what is it?”

“If you don’t want anything bad to happen, brothers, don’t you need to please the Margrave? The Margrave is probably already anxious about the Shurinz incident, and that needs to be relieved a little.” ”

No. I have another plan.”

“So they’ll treat me well even if

I’m gone for a little while.” “……No.”

“I’ll go to Whitlin.”

Calian smiled brightly as he said this.

I’ll leave and come back, so you two can stay here. It meant that you were well.
