Reborn as the Enemy Prince

Chapter 68



Chapter 14. It’s been a while (5)

– Elf Sia Rose Cobblestone Axis of Time Sispanian.

And Serenti.

Calian, who had several words that came to mind in an instant engraved in his mind, took a step. Then Jan came forward and said.

“I’ll take a look. It’s dangerous, so stay back.”

I don’t know what kind of courage it was, but Jan said this and Calian just shook his head. And then I walked back one step at a time.

After taking five or six steps back, the light on the pebble disappeared. Of course, the light of the flower also disappeared.

A few steps forward again.

Flowers and stones shine together.

Calian soon walked around the rose garden and looked around. But I couldn’t find anything that gave off the same light.

After confirming that there were no more flowers of the same type, Kalian returned to where he originally stood. Then, he walked in front of the flower with careful steps, held a stone in his left hand, and stretched out his right hand to touch the petals.

Then

– Passu….

The red petals withered in an instant and fell to the floor. Along with that, the light of the pebble disappeared.

Kalian, realizing that he had rashly touched an unexpected figure, let out an embarrassed sound.

“this.”

The fallen petals soon crumbled into black, burnt ashes and scattered into the air.

Calian thought that it was as if time had stopped in an instant. Then, I caught the tail of that thought that came to me unconsciously.

‘hour.’

I couldn’t tell when the roses bloomed. But what if.

“If it has been blooming for a long time.”

Assuming that, Calian’s eyes calmly sank.

Sia, who was one step ahead of others, listened to and responded to Time.

And a flower that bloomed for a long time as if time had stopped.

“As expected, is this correcting the wrong time?”

Calian, who was thinking like that, frowned.

If time is to be corrected, isn’t Kalyan himself the first one to be corrected? Since Calian was here, standing unharmed, there was a high possibility that the conclusion I had just come to was not correct.

– She doesn’t want you to be impatient.

Sispanian’s voice came through my memories.

Because of the frustration it gave, Calian closed his eyes for a very long time, trying to stop himself from swearing bitterly.

“Time passes before your eyes, so don’t be impatient.”

And he sarcastically muttered:

Alan had no butler or servant.

Most things could be solved with magic, and the main reason was that wizards, like wizards, did not like having outsiders in their homes.

As a result, there was only one person hired by Alan at Kyrisis. There was only Oscar, the coachman.

“Manasil, you came home early today.”

Oscar, who has been driving Alan’s famous mother-of-pearl carriage for nearly half a year, said this and gave a friendly smile.

Even though it was already dark, I was on my way home, smelling the night air instead of dawn for the first time in a long time. Even so, if Lemain had not decided to have dinner with the princes, he would never have even dreamed of it.

Alan smiled and said similarly to Oscar’s greeting.

“Let’s run away quickly.”

“Huh? Running away?”

Oscar asked in surprise, and instead of answering, Alan got into the carriage. Alan’s excited voice came through the window behind the coach seat.

“His Majesty has gone to dinner. In the meantime, he is planning to organize everything and sneak away, so we must go quickly.”

Apparently, Lemain had said that he would finish work on the wizards after dinner. And Alan pretended not to hear that and just finished the urgent work and left like this.

Alan’s mouth opened again as he was somewhat flattered to see what kind of expression Lemain would make when he found out that he was gone.

“Today, my daughter-in-law and granddaughter who lived in Riverne arrived. Your Majesty is so indifferent. Wouldn’t it be right to tell her to go home on her own on a day like this? She really enjoyed pampering the old man.”

Oscar responded with a big smile.

“I see. I understand. I will run away quickly.”

Oscar soon began to undo the straps that held the horse’s reins in place.

But suddenly Alan sighed.

He noticed that someone was hurriedly running towards the carriage.

There was no one who would come to catch Alan who was trying to go home unless he was sent by Lemain. So Alan opened his mouth and started babbling.

“No, did you already know where the rice came from?”

“yes?”

The coachman, who had not yet noticed that there was someone running towards Alan, asked back, and Alan once again let out a long sigh without answering.

Soon, a voice was heard hurriedly calling for Alan from afar.

“Please wait, Lord Manasil. Your Majesty is looking for you.”

Only then did Oscar understand Alan’s sighs and complaints and spoke through the window.

“Manasil. I guess you won’t be able to escape.”

In the end, Alan had to trudge back to Arpia Palace, leaving behind Oscar, who felt a little sorry for not leaving sooner.

If you meet Lemain, you must say something. While making that promise.

However, it was not the office that the servant guided Alan to.

Allen furrowed his eyebrows and muttered as he sensed a familiar energy hovering in the middle of the back garden of Arpia Palace.

“Are you taking what your son quit eating instead?”

Let’s drink again. Even on a chilly night like this.

Alan shook his head. And without further steps, I moved my finger and warped right in front of Lemain. Lemain, who was about to pour a drink into a glass, was seen slightly raising his head.

“Seeing him coming like this, it’s true that he’s a wizard.”

I thought he would be quite surprised like Jan was, but he was surprisingly calm. Alan, whose fun had disappeared, grumbled and said.

“If you sit outside and drink on a day like this, your mouth will water.”

Then he flicked his hand and raised the temperature around Lemain a little. As Lemain felt his body getting warmer, a chuckle came out of his mouth.

“After all, there is no one better than a wizard when it comes to drinking.”

Lemain tapped his hand on the floor across from him.

Without another word, Alan sat down where Lemain’s hand touched, took the bottle from Lemain’s hand, and poured him a drink. And then he poured his own into the empty glass in front of him.

After having dinner with the three princes, I suddenly started drinking.

Instead of asking what was going on, Alan clinked his glass against Lemain’s and said,

“It only hurts to think about the past.”

“Is there a magic that allows you to look inside people?”

“Is there such a thing?”

How could Alan’s brilliant and brilliant insight be used only by Calian? Lemain, who had been staring blankly into the distance, turned his head and looked at Alan.

“It’s obvious. Since everyone came to see the three grown princes at once, wouldn’t you be confused about how many more positions like this there will be in the future? As I was worried about the two guys who would lose out in the competition, I thought of my brother who was trapped far away and brought in Silike. “You may have regretted it.”

So, why do you regret having created three princes when you could only have one?

Alan, who thought about this for a moment, realized that Calian was the youngest and shook his head. Since Lemain gave birth to three children, he must have met such a beautiful student.

“How can you recognize me so well?”

“Just look at the road ahead.”

Alan said this after taking revenge on Lemain, who had prevented him from returning home early today by not telling him how he knew about it.

After that, the two exchanged drinks without saying a word.

When the sound of water flowing in the stream became familiar and the sound of grasshoppers seemed louder, Alan opened his mouth again.

“Actually, I thought that even if you combined all three princes, you couldn’t even keep up with Chase.”

“You mean the crown prince of Secretia?”

Instead of suddenly being asked why he was comparing other people’s children, Lemain received a quiet comment.

Alan nodded and Lemain chuckled.

“I once thought it was amazing how a son like that could be born from that snake-like nature of Devlan.”

“Yes. Anyway, Your Majesty’s three sons are not as great as Chase, but looking back, they are not really idiots. Don’t worry, they will all take care of their own way and move on.”

After hearing those words, Lemain’s eyes stared at Alan for a moment.

This is because there was a person who seemed to have difficulty making a living. Soon Lemain opened his mouth in a low voice.

“If anything, Calian gets lost.”

The words that came out like that didn’t last for a while. Lemain took another sip of his drink and then continued.

“I would like to ask you a favor.”

This meant that if Kalian could not sit on the crown prince’s throne, he was asked to save Kalyan and run away. There was only one reason why I asked Alan to do it. If Calian was pushed out, there was little chance that he would be alive at that time.

“You know the situation well, and since you care about Calian so much, I think you would grant this request.”

However, after hearing Lemain’s words after serious consideration, Alan suddenly burst into laughter. Then he shook his head.

“I wonder if there’s anything I can do to take care of Your Majesty’s youngest son.”

“What does that mean?”

LeMaine’s face frowned greatly when he thought that Alan had shown his intention to refuse. Alan saw that and asked with playful eyes.

“Do you know how much a baby elephant cares for your youngest son?”

And at the words that followed, Lemain’s eyes, who had been calm even in the face of Alan’s warp, lifted up.

This was because he realized that if Calian was pushed out, he would have to worry not about Calian but about the lives of the other two princes and the future of Kairis, so Alan shook his head to mean that there was no need for him to step forward.

Eventually, I completely sobered up.

Kalian had not gone to breakfast for two days.

He gave a reason that was half sincerity and half an excuse, saying that his illness had not yet resolved.

“Prince. Do you plan on having breakfast tomorrow too?”

Finally, on the second night, Jan asked with a voice filled with concern.

He was saying this out of concern that people might link him to Sillike’s mention of the Crown Prince or that he might be concerned about Calian’s health.

“Until tomorrow. I’ll be there the day after tomorrow.”

Instead of realizing or complaining that he had returned to a life where he could not eat breakfast as he wanted, Kalian simply responded like this.

Jan also knew why Calian didn’t come to breakfast, so he nodded without nagging him.

“Yes. I will tell you that. Then, I will leave as well. Be sure to close the window before going to sleep.”

“okay.”

After saying his final words, Yan went outside and locked the door, and a sigh escaped Kalian’s mouth as he was left alone.

“Whew.”

There is only one reason why Kalyan doesn’t go out to breakfast.

It was because of Randel.

Calian associated Randel simply because the thing that shone was a rose. There was not a single logical basis. It was simply because it was a garden tended by Randel.

There was no suspicion that Pebble and Randel were related. All I could think about was whether it was Randel who stopped the rose’s time. Because the blood of Tensil, where priests are born, also flowed in Randel.

However, since there was no basis to support such an out-of-the-blue suspicion, Calian decided that he should first observe Randel’s movements.

While I was thinking about it, I was trying not to encounter Randel for fear that he might unconsciously look at me with suspicion. Isn’t penetrating people’s hearts at a similar level to Alan’s?

Calian, who was lying in bed thinking about various things, soon fell into sleep.

And a while later, the dark dawn just before dawn.

– Sarah…….

There was the sound of a curtain shaking in the wind, and Calian’s eyes, which had been closed, slowly opened.

‘intruder.’

I felt someone’s silent footsteps.

And Jan obviously locked the door.

If you open it with a key other than Jan’s, the alarm magic created by Sispanian will be activated. So it wasn’t like someone came in by visiting.

Then I remembered that I fell asleep with the window open out of frustration. The window’s alarm magic had not been activated.

‘I should have listened to Jan carefully. ‘Something troublesome will happen.’

Calian laughed slightly.

And still lying down, he waited for the intruder to come closer.

‘They’re already welcoming me like this. ‘I don’t know what to do with myself.’

Silique. Or Randel.

I was wondering who really sent the guest.

A moment later, there was the sound of the bedroom curtains being quietly drawn.

Calian, who was looking at the intruder who was now clearly getting closer, frowned.

This was because it was the energy of someone I was familiar with but did not expect to come like this.

In the end, Calian put off making the ‘sword’ and sat up. Then he looked at the intruder with sharp, shining eyes and said:

“What is it?”

The intruder did not even cover his face.

And he wasn’t surprised that Calian had woken up. He didn’t seem to pay much attention to Calian’s words, which were full of caution. He looked into Calian’s eyes and spoke in a low voice.

“They said they could use some magic and they knew how to wake up in the wind.”

Whoever it was, there was absolutely no reason to welcome anyone who came through the window at this hour. Therefore, Calian did not bother to hide his unpleasant expression and opened his mouth.

“I asked why you came, at this hour and this way.”

One corner of the customer’s mouth twitched as he looked at Calian, who was showing hostility with his entire body, from his eyes to his voice.
