Reborn as the Enemy Prince

Chapter 78. I got irritated

when he came into my territory (3) .

A magic that must have been learned a long time ago.

A magic that my younger brother could never have mastered for himself.

‘Abtondent.’

Thanks to that, the pain went away and I became irritated.

‘Leave it.’

‘By cutting off Brother Randel’s life….’

‘Wouldn’t it be less days or minutes?’

‘…… thank you.’

Because of the words I vaguely heard without being able to see anything.

The one whose life is at risk is me, and the one whose life is at stake is me, but my younger brother is refusing. I am the one receiving treatment and he is the one treating me, but my younger brother is thankful. It was my life that was being spared, but the white rose he received in return was given by my sister.

It seems like both of them have overlooked it, but I have to say that the life we are freely exchanging with each other is actually mine. Instead of white roses, I should rather take mithril scissors as payment. Don’t be so snarky when you only have a few minutes less to live.

My brother is the one who steadfastly weighed Chase’s heart. So, the reason why my younger brother can’t put his brother’s number on the scale is similar to why he can’t send his royal highness to a dangerous palace, so don’t think of it as such a big deal and just reflect on it.

Now that I think about it, the crazy guy is so busy talking about whether he’s back as a king or a prince that he’s forgotten that he was supposed to take my side and not that person’s. That’s what I have to say.

I was annoyed because I couldn’t speak.

By the way, don’t pay for my life on your own terms.

Don’t go out on your own and say thank you on my behalf.

Don’t blame yourself for what happened when I went out.

how. Why is your voice like that?

Because I won’t die. Can’t you just take a breath?

I got annoyed because I needed to say something but couldn’t.

‘are you okay.’

That guy said that at the right time.

I told you when to say that.

I definitely learned it. It’s annoying that I can’t even say that short word. In the end, I can’t even tell you that it’s not your fault or that it’s not your fault.

I fell asleep.

A carriage with a completely different exterior and interior.

A royal carriage that even has a bedroom where patients can be moved from the sofa after treatment in a hurry. It was a sound coming from inside the carriage.

A large cup was held out in front of Kirie, who was leaning against the outer wall of the carriage, listening quietly. It was a warm soup with mashed potatoes and bacon.

“it’s okay.”

Randel was a man who had the blessing of becoming stronger in addition to the power of the stone. Therefore, since he would not even notice a fairly lethal poison, Calian left Randel, who had detoxified Plantz’s poison to some extent, sitting on the sofa in the carriage, quietly closing his eyes and leaning back.

But it wasn’t Kirie. They had been kicked out long ago.

Although it was not an infectious disease, there was concern that poisonous air might remain in the carriage. Even Planz, who had the blessing, vomited blood and collapsed in just a few minutes, but what if an ordinary person without him was exposed to the poison? As the saying goes, there is no way he could survive.

“How are you feeling?”

So, of course, Relic.

“I haven’t heard anything else yet.”

“…… yes.”

They couldn’t even see the face of Plantz, who entered the carriage while being supported by Calian, looking like he was dying.

When I collapsed because of Evan, I was confused and didn’t know what to do. Now, Reric has calmed down as much as Yan in front of the unconscious Calian. Although he had a clearly stiff expression on his face, not sitting down or drinking water, and kept moving around the carriage to help Kirie, he didn’t cry.

It looks like they decided to put the crying, screaming, and fussing aside after the Plants incident. Just like Jan.

Thinking so, Kirie said while pointing towards Jan and Den, who were sitting with the Vulcan members in the distance.

“I’ll let you know when you wake up.”

“…… yes.”

Reric answered quietly and walked away, carrying the cup containing the soup back. Kirie thought for a moment whether she should have told you to eat the soup she refused, but then turned her head. I knew that there were quite a few people who would say the same thing, whether it was Jan, Den, or others.

As Reric’s footsteps move away, the sound of the pocket watch being pulled out and turned back from inside the carriage can be heard again.

As if he couldn’t withstand the passage of time.

It’s as if he can’t stand the time that doesn’t pass.

“Whoa…”

The carriage stopped because there was no one to tell it whether to continue forward. Kirie, who had been leaning on a motionless carriage and listening to the same sound until the end of the day, let out a long sigh.

Because every time I touched the crown, I heard the sound of the second hand and Calian’s breathing cut in and out.

* * *

Arpia Palace, the king’s office space.

It is the second most visited place by general nobles who do not work at the palace, after Senyu Hall, where meetings and banquets are held.

Of course, that did not mean that the threshold of Arpia Palace was as low as the Senyu Pavilion, where any noble could enter and exit at any time. Visits are only permitted after some complicated preliminary procedures. Of course, it is the place where you can get closest to the king.

Therefore, there were not many people who did not have their feet blocked by knights when they entered Arpia Palace without prior permission. Crown Princes and Princes Excluding Marquis Allan Manasil, who had an office there even though he was not the king, he had to have a position higher than that of the head of the Kairis Wizards Association or the head of the Balkan division.

If not that too.

“I see you, His Majesty the King.”

Siegfried or something.

“Yes. It’s been a while since we’ve seen each other, Duke.”

“Yes, Your Highness.”

No need to talk about positions or titles, just Siegfried.

Even nobles who were permitted to enter Arpia Palace could never witness the King’s patronage. Lemain, who was taking a walk in a quiet place where only the royal family and Alan could set foot, was informed of Demirea’s visit, which had not been promised in advance. And Lemain immediately called Demirea with support that even Sleiman had never seen before.

Of course, to be precise, it’s not that Slayman couldn’t go, it’s that he didn’t go, but it should have been done, but in any case, the important point was the fact that Lemain dared to bring Demirea into that high-level position.

-Snap!

Without even telling him to release Demirea’s sword.

So, this means, for example, ‘Recall how much trust the king has in Siegfried, who joined hands with Calian’ and ‘Even if Calian revealed his greed for the crown prince in front of the nobles, he has no intention of throwing Calian out or being wary of him.’ It is an expression.

In this situation where Brisen, which was the largest pie of the noble power, was shaking again, it was thought that if the nobles wanted to gather in one place again, it would be best for Siegfried to become the axis.

“Is your arm okay?”

Even though she probably didn’t know Lemain’s true intentions, Demirea entered the palace grounds of Arpia with that heavy sword strapped to her waist. And then he quietly asked Lemain how he was doing.

“You’re all better, don’t worry.”

Although the arrow penetrated, no bones were injured. Moreover, thanks to the strengthening of the blessing, the wound was healing well without much trouble. Therefore, Lemain, who heard the concerns that even his sons had not heard, responded as if it was no big deal.

“I heard from my father that His Majesty was injured instead of my father. Thank you.”

“The duke’s injury was worse than mine. How was it?”

“I’m fine. They said I just need a few days of rest.”

“okay.”

Lemain, who decided that when he met Slayman later, he would say, ‘Now that I think about it, I was grateful back then,’ nodded.

Several times after that.

A casual conversation that didn’t have much meaning or importance took place for a while. Without asking why the Duke of Siegfried had suddenly come to visit Lemain, without even explaining why he had suddenly come to see Lemain.

Some time passed and we were halfway across the low hill built in the vast backyard of Arpia Palace.

“They must have told that child as well. They said he was a bright child.”

Lemain asked as he looked at the flowing stream with a nice sound instead of the boring stagnant tea. Then Demirea, who had been choosing her words for a long time, including an unusually long greeting, opened her mouth.

“Yes. I didn’t hide it because it was from the same family.”

“Are you worried that harm will come to that child?”

“That’s right.”

Will Lemain hit all of Brissen or just Rashid?

I came here because it was a problem that could affect Riri depending on the situation. Of course, it was something that was not specifically mentioned to Calian. In any case, Calian felt that he had no reason or authority to even care about Lirie’s situation.

“For this incident… I will have to punish you.”

“Is that punishment for the family?”

“Actually, I was still thinking. Since there was an intrusion into the royal forest and palace, I felt like I had to carefully decide on the punishment to be given to Brisen and the reward to be given to Lord Bern.”

Calian had even predicted that Gray would directly accuse his son. Isn’t it up to Lemain to decide what to do with it? Kalian never crossed that line, so he didn’t say anything about the rewards and punishments that would follow.

So Lemain’s worries on Calian’s behalf are bound to increase.

“Even though Baron Briesen has nothing to do with this matter, he did harm Calian and seems to have clashed with Planz and Randel afterwards. Maybe that’s why I suspect he may have been involved in this matter as well. .”

“That goes for me too.”

“Yes. If it is true and not a suspicion, I will definitely punish Baron Briesen. However, taking Marquis Briesen’s words into consideration, I will not be able to decide whether to punish just one baron or not when the interrogation of those captured this time is over. “I’m trying to think about it a little more.”

Lemain, who said this, looked at Demirea.

“Last year, when Calian was seriously injured, Siegfried protected him. I know that starting from that, he has helped me in many ways until now. The same goes for my fiancé’s work.”

“Yes, that’s right.”

“You said you would pay for it later. Is that why you came?”

“That’s right.”

Demirea answered without hesitation.

Just as Calian took credit for rescuing the Margrave of Shurinz, didn’t Dmirea do the same? He was on his way to receive back part of the compensation for the help he had provided from Siegfried to Calian and later to Lemain.

Even if the entire Briesen is punished, I ask that Lillie be excluded from the punishment.

Calian will receive compensation for helping Calian, but shouldn’t Lemain be responsible for repaying Lemain for the benefits he gained through his alliance with Calian?

“Even if he did swing his sword at Briseen, I had no intention of turning a blind eye to that child. He is a child who has never shared in the family’s profits, so why should he share the punishment?”

The child abandoned by Brisen.

Could it be that he is involved with Brisen? Lemain was concerned about this and did not hand over a single penny of the wealth created by Briesen and Sillike to Plantz. All property that was not subject to return to the royal family was given into Gray’s hands, and like Calian and Randel, he was allowed to inherit only one territory that he had personally bestowed on Silike. That way, you won’t have to share the punishment with Brisen.

The same was true for Riri.

Isn’t this the kid Gray pretended not to know? This is a child who did not receive even a single share of Evan and Lennon’s inheritance and rights after their deaths. There was no reason for Lirie to share the punishment that Brisen received.

“No matter how much I know, I know that much. Even if I don’t put a price on Calian’s work, I promise that I will make sure no harm comes to him.”

“All right.”

Lemain smiled slightly as he saw the Duke respond that he understood rather than say thank you, and then opened his mouth again.

“Just a minor duke.”

“Yes, Your Highness.”

“I think it would be better to bring that child into Siegfried. I wonder if it would be of greater benefit to the child.”

It was quite common for nobles to adopt other people’s children into their families. Because there is no suitable successor to inherit the title and continue the family, the family cannot be closed.

If we look at the reality, wasn’t Arsene Hertz also a commoner whose origins are unclear?

“We’re still watching.”

“Perhaps you are trying to make that child the next head of the Brisen family?”

“Next head.”

Demirea stopped talking and kept her mouth shut.

This was because I remembered Calian’s story of making Plantz the new head of Briesen, and it seemed like Lemaine did not know that fact yet. Of course, Dmirea didn’t know that Calian had changed his mind about closing Vriesen altogether.

“I’m just vaguely thinking that it wouldn’t be a bad idea if necessary. I’m going to wait and see until the child grows a little older and can make his own decisions.”

So Demirea only answered like this.

I thought that it wouldn’t be a bad thing to make Riri the Marquis of Briesen, whether he was succeeding Plantz or replacing him.

Lemain, who heard this, looked at Demirea for a moment and said,

“That child has a proper guardian. That’s a good thing.”

He said this.

After that, he silently cleared his throat as he looked at the little elephant with a face that said, ‘No matter what, I don’t want to hear such praise from someone like Your Highness.’

– Zeon’s Black Stone. A stone that is bigger than what they have, but looks the same. The stone is broken inside the harpy’s heart. Why is this here?

…… Click.

The sound of the clock that had been making it finally stopped.

However, without realizing it, he quietly stretched out his hand.

– Cry!

Bern, who put down the watch on the nightstand, turned his head. Then I looked at Randel, who was sitting on the sofa a little away.

Randel must have realized that the sound of the clock that had been bothering his ears had finally stopped, but Randel was still motionless, with his back turned to the bed. I couldn’t tell if it was because my body was constantly overworked or because my heart was struggling for the first time. Because Bern is not in a state to care about such things right now.

Since he wasn’t sitting on the chair in the first place, Bern’s eyes were fixed on the bed as he just looked away.

This is because I couldn’t leave it to Randel to heal my insides after completing the detox. Because it was decided to let the rest be treated with Sispanian’s blessing rather than Randel’s life. That’s because I decided to be persuaded by Kirie’s words that going outside and summoning Hina might be a trap.

The pale guy, who still couldn’t come to his senses, could still smell blood. You can see that the blood on the clothes has already turned dark red. The stain also smelled of blood.

[…… Clean]

After searching through his memories for a while and recalling how to use magic, Bern used his magic. An unfamiliar, refreshing energy hovers around me, washing away the pungent smell of blood.

– Jeopuk.

Bern, who had erased the blood stains that had been left untouched until now, took a step back. Then he turned to go towards the carriage door.

“Has anything been confirmed?”

Randel, who suddenly opened his eyes, asked me how I knew. Bern, who was about to nod, opened his mouth when he realized that Randel was not looking at him.

“yes.”

“So you want to go?”

“yes.”

“Where.”

“I’m going to Danu.”

“Go. What are you going to do?”

“I will kill you.”

“who.”

The red eyes move again.

I looked over the bed. I looked at the smell of blood that had started to circulate again.

“All.”

Bern answered.

Randel said nothing more.

instead.

“wait.”

The low voice of his older brother finally woke up and caught Bern.
