Chapter 493
Chapter 86. Greed (6)
Plantz said.
My younger brother is so dull.
He barks often, bites sometimes, and rarely breaks, and his personality is a bit complex. There is probably no other person in the world as dull as my brother.
If you don’t believe me, ask their dad and their old brother. Because we will say with one voice that that is correct.
“Of course Sispanian knows.”
“Are you saying that you don’t care even though you know that the person inside your youngest child has changed?”
“You don’t care because you know.”
If you don’t believe in my brother’s Mudim even after hearing the words of Archmage Allan Manasil and King of Secretia Chase Dullahan Secretia.
Did you ask Sigmund Khan Sispanian?
If you can.
“I am a person who lives as Kalian because of the items that Sispanian made.”
Whether it was Serenti’s arrangement or someone else’s prank, the origin of everything was ultimately the time axis created by Sispanian.
A war started by the Mad King Planz Rurun Kairis, led by Arsene, in which Balkan participated, and in which Slayman and Allan assisted. A war in which Danu stood by and Serenti did not participate. Whether you die once or a hundred times in such a war, it is the axis of time that eventually turns back time.
This is not to say that we are ignoring the responsibility of everyone involved in the war, but that is the fact. At the bottom of all tragedies was the axis of time.
And the person who made that thing was Sispanian.
“I am a person who knows the truth but never holds a grudge, so how can Sispanian reject me?”
Nevertheless, he is a person who does not blame Sispanians. He is a person who has so many things to endure throughout his life, but has not even bothered to ask Sispanian why he did that.
He is that kind of person. That guy is my younger brother.
How could I reject such a person, claiming that he is not my descendant for the flimsy reason that someone else was inhabiting the body that possessed the power to bless my younger brother?
Is Sispanian’s thoughtfulness at that level?
“… How can a Sispanian reject someone who has an understanding that even a Sispanian cannot fully understand?”
“Are you trying to protect me in that way?”
“Rather than protection, it’s closer to gratitude or compensation. That’s what Calian thinks. I think it’s protection.”
To prevent anyone from touching the person who was left alone because of Sispanian’s belongings. To enable them to walk a slightly smoother path with at least the name of being a descendant of Cispanians. It must have been protection based on that idea.
“It won’t be a bad thing. Whatever the reason.”
“Yes. Whatever the reason.”
Anyway.
The person who gained this level of understanding from Sispanians by understanding Sispanians is my younger brother.
The guy who says things like, ‘I’m glad there won’t be a problem when I go to Camilon since you don’t say you’re not my descendant anyway’ as if he doesn’t have any regrets about why Cispanians still regard me as their descendant, is me. It’s my younger brother.
How can we say that a guy like that is not dull?
‘Sispanian has arrived.’
‘Danu is.’
‘I can also feel Danu’s energy. It looks like we all came to the forest together… I’ll go and watch the fight for a while and then I’ll come back after stopping it properly.’
‘alone.’
‘yes. ‘I have to go alone.’
‘I was the one who asked to hand over the piece.’
‘Whether it was you or anyone else, you can’t even go near that place. If you get caught between those three, you won’t be able to survive Kirie. ‘Don’t be stubborn.’
‘…… okay.’
‘Don’t get caught in the rain. ‘I’m catching a cold.’
So it is true that my younger brother is blunt.
There will be no other person in the world as dull as him.
‘You are so weak.’
‘My brother has become unable to live without barking.’
‘What should I do? ‘Because it was fun.’
‘Why did you have fun with something like that?’
‘Because it’s fun.’
…… okay.
It barks often, bites sometimes, and rarely breaks things, and its personality is a bit complex.
‘Anyway, please stay.’
‘okay.’
‘It’s a bad day, so don’t fight with Brother Randel for no reason. Still, if a fight happens, you can ask Kirie to take your side. Even if you do that, if you lose, call them. Don’t wither away trying to force yourself to overcome.’
‘you. ‘Just a little bit.’
Because he’s such a dull guy.
So I ran out again.
‘I’ll be back.’
He said he had to make sure Danu didn’t die at the hands of Sispanian and went out to help Danu, who no one would stop if he was left alone.
Since Sispanian was called in to bring out Plantz, I think we should send it back so that Randel can eat well and live well this time. Saying those big words without even thinking about it.
“Ha…”
While answering Randel, Plantz, who was looking in the direction where Calian had fluttered away again, let out a slow breath. And then I turned my head away from the rain pouring down like crazy, as if I was going to get motion sickness.
– Tok…… todok tok.
-…… Chee-ik!
A small sound rings out.
It is the sound of raindrops falling in a single line on the rock ceiling, and then a few of them fall on the burning firewood and immediately boil up before disappearing.
Kirie, who could easily distinguish sounds of this level, looked at the bonfire. Then, Plantz, who had turned his head just in time, followed Kyrie’s gaze. Then, regardless of the sound, I made eye contact with Randel, who had already been staring at the bonfire for some time.
That’s why I try to turn my head again out of habit, away from those blue eyes that I can’t measure the depth of.
– Tap! Knock knock!
As Calian left, the water droplets that started falling again due to the shield naturally disappearing landed in the wrong place this time.
– Took!
– Tap!
Randel.
It fell unfiltered on the top of Randel’s head, who had the most curly hair among the three brothers.
I probably would have laughed if Calian had been there.
– Tap, tap!
Plants and Kirie, who rarely smile because they were the only ones laughing when they saw that, just made faces that seemed like they would do something like that. Meanwhile, Randel raised his hand to his head and roughly brushed away the water droplets that had formed in the strands of his hair.
When a thick hand settled down on my golden hair for a moment.
– …… Wow.
A low sound rang from above Randel’s head.
A thin, wide blue thing began to quietly glow.
It was Planz’s shield.
It didn’t unfold all at once. They intertwined for a while and gradually widened. It did not have an unwavering, straight shape like Calian’s, nor was it as thick and hard as Calian’s.
Because I wasn’t yet used to maintaining magic, I blinked a few times and a hole appeared for a while before being filled again. It wasn’t even enough to cover the entire underside of the rock ceiling, so it couldn’t even cover the heads of Kirie, the four horses, and Plantz.
Just one person.
I made one and put it on the head of the upstairs resident I really didn’t like.
“It’s free.”
Then the reaction I expected came out.
Are you stopping the raindrops from falling because you have nothing to do?
“I will pay you back.”
So I answered.
Who do you think does it because they like it?
“what.”
“Are you asking this knowingly?”
“I guess I’m asking because it’s not clear.”
“I don’t know how many minutes you spent, but I’m giving it to you because I don’t think a greeting to Harpy Dog is worth it.”
“Is that one more reason?”
I put it on for no reason.
If I had known that they would bite me like this, I would have just left it alone, whether it was exposed to water or rain.
Plantz, who was silent, thought for a moment about what more to say.
Should I say this as a reward for giving me various advices at Whitlin, or should I say that if you catch a cold here, your schedule will be delayed, or should I tell you to stay still and not worry about anything I do.
Or maybe I’ll just go to Kirie and start a fight.
“……This is my first time doing this.”
He answered as if he had thought about it for a while and had decided.
I didn’t ask whether the reason was that important.
On one day, I asked Hina, who covered me with a warm robe in a carriage, the reason. On another day, I asked Serie, who offered to help me at the duke’s residence, the reason. On another day, I asked Kirie, who gave me a canteen in the mountains, the reason.
The way he asks the reason for his clumsy shield seems to be no different from himself those days. Even though Randel is so good at calculating, it doesn’t seem to be any different.
Of course, my current action was not a ‘favor’ towards my brother, but still. Since he wanted to hear the reason for his unreasonable behavior, I continued to talk to him to tell him why it was so important.
“I once stood in front of Hina who entered the rose garden.”
“I remember it.”
“There was a time when I stood in front of Calian.”
“They said there were a lot.”
“As you know well, there was a day when I jumped in front of my mother.”
There was no immediate answer to the last sentence.
Randel looked at Planz for a moment and nodded quietly.
“… That’s what I did.”
I hear an answer that doesn’t leave any impression.
Plantz also continued speaking without expressing any emotion.
“That shield now. This is my first time using it.”
“It seems so.”
“This is my first time covering someone else with something other than my body. I don’t know if you know that.”
“Is that so?”
“That’s right.”
“Because.”
“That’s why I’m showing you.”
Once again, Randel’s eyes glowed deeply.
As I look into those eyes, I feel my breath catching again.
It’s something that can’t be helped.
Just like a perfume that you still haven’t gotten used to, you can’t immediately get used to the deep waters of someone you’ve never considered a brother. Because I knew that, I didn’t care and kept looking.
I let go of the feeling of the tie tightening and just faced him.
“I am not the kind of person who stands still no matter what happens. Rather than risking my life to protect someone, I also know how to deploy a shield to block even a drop of rain. I know that now.”
Not the prince trapped inside a palm-sized glass bead. Not the idiot who jumps into every place without any thought to save his life.
“Calian told you by imitating me, which I have never seen before. This time, I will show it to you myself. I will tell you with my own words how different it is and how much it has changed. Directly to you.”
Instead of being a helpless person who has to tell the younger brother that the second older brother is not the person the first older brother thought he was.
Instead of the fake planz that Kalian showed me, he directly told me what real planz was like. I said it directly while looking into those eyes that took my breath away.
If something goes wrong and a fight breaks out again, Kirie will take your side. If that doesn’t work, you can just call your younger brother. So I made up my mind and said what I wanted to say.
I said what I had been holding back.
“Then.”
Randel, who was quietly looking into those light green eyes, opened his mouth.
“Has anything changed?”
“Are you thinking it’s impermanent again?”
“I’m just curious. I haven’t walked far yet.”
“…… At least.”
Plantz stretched out his hand.
He pointed somewhere beyond the rocky roof to where the valley he had walked up to get here would be.
Landel, who was looking at his fingers with particularly prominent bulging bones, heard Plantz’s low voice. “I won’t give healthy life to a withered flower.”
“If you don’t do that.”
“
You know how to walk. Please walk a few steps further and fetch water. “Isn’t there a lot of water around?”
If they are wilting, you can just water them.
I can only say this since I have never grown a flower
before. If it were that easy, Calian thought to himself that the peas I had grown were withering again and again. There would have been no need to call Sispanian and Serenti and complain about them.
Anyway, Calian was not here, and Kyrie, who had a vague idea of what Calian had been through, was not planning on getting involved in the royal conversation. Because he had no desire
to do anything. “It doesn’t sound like it would be difficult.”
The flower farming expert, who had no intention of contradicting the words of his younger brother who lived downstairs, just ignored them.
Plantz nodded.
But then.
– …… Drip.
The rainwater that seeped through the crack in the clumsy shield fell on Randel’s face and flowed down. There
was a hole in the shield.
He unfolded the shield tastefully and explained it with meaning. As soon as he finished giving impressive advice about his brother’s bad attitude, there was a hole in the shield.
– Boom!
Kirie quickly stood up.
As if she had something to do in the first place, she walked towards Iris and rummaged through her bag. He took out a white towel from inside and began wiping Raven’s wet fur with it. He
turned his head away from Randel and Planz.
Without turning his face even once, he said,
” You’re clumsy.”
It was my face that was wet, but my youngest brother’s driver was just wiping the horse’s hair. Landel, who was quietly watching the sheep, opened his mouth. At those words,
Plantz, who moved his head as if bobbing, replied,
“Like I already told you. I’m clumsy.”
“I’m just clumsy.”
“Or what else?”
“They say magic is like a mirror that reflects your thoughts.” ”
If that were the case, you wouldn’t have seen my shield that shields you.” ”
Is that so? .”
“That’s right.”
The constant argument continues.
Tap, tap, tap.
Not noticing that the rain pouring from the sky had stopped and now only the rainwater that had accumulated on the leaves had started to tap on the floor. * *
*
Rainwater dripping from my heavily wet, black hair . It dripped down.
It looked different from Arnaizel and Danu behind him. Unlike Calian, who literally looked like he had gone in and out of the water, neither of them got wet at all. Alan also started using such abilities from the 7th circle, so how much more so to them. It’s natural.
It’s strange that Sispanian, who is catching the rain just like Calian in front of him,
is very bothersome.
So, I tried to block the rain by doing a trick of pulling out a shield in front of Sispanian. I
was caught in the rain . If I didn’t like it, I wouldn’t have been exposed to all that rain. After all, an ancient dragon who doesn’t know how long it’s been alive wouldn’t catch a cold. After
thinking about this, I just lowered my hand.
“Danu.”
And then opened my mouth.
Except for the color of my hair. I called Danu, who looked exactly like Sia.
Danu did not answer.
“I think you did well on the exam. “What do you think?”
I said without paying attention.
But as soon as I heard the word “test,” Arnaizel, a boy with blue hair and black eyes, wrinkled his small eyebrow. I can’t believe
Arnaizel reacts to the word “test.
” It looks like he is taking a test.
Tests are just a process to check how much one has achieved, so this is the pea that has been refusing all kinds of tests in order to avoid wasting time and to put a finger on the reputation he has worked so hard to build. You should take a look.
Brother, you are the only one who refused to live through the bondage of a test that even the sea dragon that protected the Great Sea could not escape from. Anyway, brother, you are truly unlucky. Let me tell you something like that. “I saw that there were no restrictions on the method of the test
. Know. That’s why I gave it to you.”
As I was thinking about this and that, I heard Danu’s answer. Kalian smiled a little at that and continued.
“I only gave it back to my brother. You agreed to answer my questions. I have to keep that promise too.”
“I’ll call you again when they go back.”
Should I believe that or not?
Kalian, who was thinking about it, nodded in agreement.
Kalian soon turned his gaze. He guarded the conversation between himself and Danu. I took my eyes off the Sispanian I was watching and looked at Arneizel.
“I don’t like being in the rain, Arneizel.”
Arneizel opened his eyes round.
“Do you still feel suffocated when it rains?”
“Similar.”
“Because of me.” “Are you out of breath again?”
“It’s not your fault. I’m just suffocating.”
“Are you going to fight me if I go?”
“Is this someone you’re going to lose if you fight him? “I’m not going to fight.”
Calian held up both his empty hands.
I know that Calian isn’t going to be able to fight just because he doesn’t have a sword in his hands right now. However, Arnaizel stared at Calian for a while and nodded. “I’ll go back.
”
“Thank you.”
Soon, Arnaisel’s entire body was engulfed in a blue water drop-like light.
Water droplets appeared around Arnaisel as he said, “See you next time.” After that, Arnaisel smelled a little of sea salt. He left it behind and disappeared.
He went back.
Rather than doing it for the sake of Kalian, it was probably because he thought that Sispanian would scold him if Kalian suffocated. Kalian laughed for a moment and turned
back.
Now, on the contrary, he was standing with his back to Sispanian and Danu I looked at him.
I didn’t ask Sispanian, who was standing silently, to go back. To be honest, I wonder what Danu would do when he was left alone with Calian without the elves, and send Sispanian back. Calian’s life is also quite expensive. I know this:
“I have to give my things back. Danu.”
“I think you’ve heard the story going back and forth.” ”
You’re saying you can’t give it to me because you don’t trust me .
” “That’s right.”
“Even though Sispanian said he would entrust it to me.” ”
It doesn’t matter.”
So stubborn . Should he really tell Cispanian that he might die? Calian, who thought about this for a while, opened his mouth.
“If you don’t trust me, make a deal. Danu.”
She brought up Siona’s method.
If you don’t trust her, let’s make a deal. That’s what Siona said to Calian, who didn’t trust the elves. I
guess I’ll have to get Siona a good sword when I go back.
Come now. Kalyan, who realized a little about my unfair feelings, let out a short sigh. Then, looking at Danu, who had not responded yet, he continued, “Promise me that you will not
interfere with me and the people around me from now on. Please also return my items that I accidentally dropped. Then I will shut my mouth.”
“What do you mean?”
Calian’s red lips draw a long arc.
– Sia.
Those red lips that moved silently with their backs to Sispanian created a clear name.
Unlike you , Able to read the future.
Unlike you, I have now opened my eyes.
So…
– A still young ‘mother tree’ born without protection.
Not a fake tree forced by Sispanian, but a real mother tree. As the name suggests, about the life that was born on its own.
Danu raised his head, and
light burst out.
