How to Live as the Enemy Prince

< Chapter 16. I, to You (3) >

Calian stands in his place and opens his eyes.

Jan knew this was what Kalian looked like when he had so much to think about. Moreover, I was well aware of what caused me to fall into such deep thoughts.

Jan waits quietly for Kalian to finish his thought.

The time to stand there without speaking grew without fail.

Something deep in Calian's mind makes a sound as he moves again.

"Welcome to the home of Archmage Alan Manasil!"

Calian covers his face with his palms, watching the statue singing a cheerful song while dancing slowly.

I could not help but smile.

Kalian just told Le Maine that he faced Silica and that there seems to be Silica after Aisha's death, so she needs to be confirmed. You've teamed up with Plants and let Remain know how harsh he was when he spoke to Plants.

Le Maine apologizes a lot for hearing all of that.

Thanks to Le Maine's apple, I was able to get to Allen's mansion feeling even deeper. It was because there were people to meet outside.

Then the statue standing on the porch of Alan's mansion suddenly dances and sings.

"This is crazy."

After barely enduring the smile, Jan frowned and said, holding on to the smile while keeping up with Calian's mood.

"I said the same thing when I first saw this."

"When did you come to Master's house?"

Yan looks around for a moment to see if there's anyone else in Calian's question.

Now they were outside the palace.

Jan wasn't even dressed as a servant, since he was sneaking out in Allen's wagon.

Jan replied briefly as Siegfried.

"The day someone gave you poison because they didn't like poisoned tea."

More yarn was piled up on that day than anyone else.

Alan, who was next to him, nods as if he could sympathize deeply with Yan's feelings, and Kiri, who was standing behind, gives a small laugh.

Following Alan and Arsen, Calian blinks for a moment, now cursed by Jan.

Time has passed again.

"Welcome to the home of Archmage Alan Manasil!"

Finally, Calian's smile bursts.

"Since you like it so much, I'll put one in front of the prince's room."

"No, no, no. It's all right, Master."

Kalian hurries his hand and moves his feet.

There were already a few people in Alan's house who barely walked in.

Veronica was preparing lunch, and Melpire, who was also the chairman of the Polish Magic School, and Euria, who was also the principal of the Magic School, were talking about the operation of the institute.

Arsen was giving Veronica a magical academy assignment right next to them.

"I said I'd help you first, my prince, with a free heart."

Arsen, the chairman of the Magic School and the principal of the school, who was doing whatever he wanted to do with the student's assignment, saw the actual owner of the Magic School, and explained that. Kalian decides to take it in half.

After lunch with the group, Calian, Arsen, and Melphire and Euria sat around the reception room table.

"I heard you all had a hard time while I was gone."

Kalian, who was outside Cairysis, had to spend a lot of their free time inside, even though he had been through a lot of things. It was because of what Callian left behind.

Callian is really sorry to see Melpire's face, which is no longer round. I couldn't rest properly, so I became a lot thinner.

"Bird of Reddington has arrived, my prince. Thank you for your generosity. Thanks to you, I have more time."

It was Calian who was busy in the first place, but Melpher said that he cared about her.

Khalian nods and opens his mouth in gratitude to Melpher.

"I'm going to meet some nobles with knights in this hunt. I think it's time to find out if there are forces in place of the Knights of Bricen."

Along with that, Jan handed him a piece of paper in front of Melpire and Euria. It was a list of the nobles of the Knights family who had sent a gift to Kalian.

Kalian looks down at the two people written on the paper.

"Baron Pollun."

"Yes, Prince."

Kalian's hands point to the paper.

"From the baron's standards, you can choose those who are difficult to trust."

Melpher, who had made numerous trades with the noble families while running the merchant guild, replied as if it was not difficult.

"Yes, I'll check."

After that, Kalian looks at Euria.

He was not the head of the Wizard Association or the principal of the Wizard Institute, but to request the fertilizer of Urea, the boss of the Information Organization.

Uriah nods, even before Calian speaks separately.

"I remember very well what I was researching about Brissen. I'm going to take the people associated with Brissen off the list."

I thanked both of you for seeing that Kalian is trustworthy.

Of course, the best way was for Calian to decide for himself how many people to face each other. I was going to borrow Melpire's eyes and ears.

The first ones that Jan filtered must have been pretty reliable if they went through Melpire and Euria's hands. It was okay if it could not be filtered completely.

'I can rely on all the people who are gathered here today.'

Alan Jan Kirrier, Kalian's closest friend. And Arsen.

These are the people that Kalian can turn his back on completely.

A little bit wider than that was Melpire and Euria and Remain and Slay right in front of us. Until then, it was okay for Calian to reveal his insides.

And the nobles who will meet from now on will fall a little farther into the range than those mentioned above. I had to hold hands, considering that anyone could turn their back on Calian at any time. That's why I don't think it needs to be filtered completely.

"I'll be here until evening, so let me know until then."

Callian looks at Arsen. You draw a long arc with Kalian's eyes.

"Sir Hertz. You can think of it as a five day rest."

Arsen, who was unable to endure his boredom and did Veronica's work, smiles, noticing that he will now be busy again. Whatever it is, it will be more fun than the Magic Academy's assignment.

"Yes, Prince. That's enough."

Kalian smiles with a face similar to Arsen's.

Melpire Pollun has been sending gifts since morning.

His gift pierces Kallian's vanity once again.

As soon as she finished her breakfast saying that a very special gift had arrived, Calian laughed again, looking at the two large and one small in front of Chermill Palace.

"Anyway, Baron Pollun."

It was also a gift to celebrate Calian's return and to thank him for sending his favorite talent, Teshid Reddington.

The first gift Melpire sent to Calian was Raven's necklace. It was more expensive than any jewelry Kalian had that still wouldn't fill it.

But this gift was also not for Callian.

Jan's mouth is stuck in my ears. He didn't seem to mind, but he didn't hate Kiri.

"I don't know how to think about this."

"Two Big Ones" was the word of Raven's brother.

He seemed to have made a deal with the owner of the Bricen Merchant Guild when he first sent Raven to Plants.

One was light brown and the other dark brown, each a gift for Yann and Kiri. The funny thing is that both of them were not very gentle.

Then why the hell would Raven do that alone?

"That dark horse was supposed to be sent to Prince Plants. Prince Plants liked Raven, so he had no choice but to send Raven."

Khalian scratches his cheek, hearing Jann's words. Plants was taken away by Callian in a fit of words.

Unfortunately, the knife that Plants threw hurt his hand that day, so Callian decided instead to apologize, it was just a reward.

Anyway, Jan and Kiry have a lot of work to do outside the palace, so I thought I'd get you a horse. It was very good.

"We can ride straight out to the hunt today."

For this reason, Khalian gave me permission to be told by Yan to nod. This time, I saw a 'little one' and laughed.

"I thought I'd buy you a bird or a dog."

Callian, who met Melpire, asked if Kiri's brother was selling animals at the Merchant Guild for a royal palace. I made a promise to Hina anyway.

The answer to the question seemed to have been sent as a gift.

It was a silver-white kitten with a blue and brown eagle. Somehow, it looks like Hina's hair and resembles Kyrie's eyes quite a bit. It was amazing how I found it in such a short time.

"Baron Pollun is extraordinary in many ways."

Khalian nods, empathizing deeply with Yan.

Of course, Hina, the owner of the gift, liked the most when she saw the kitten. When Calian saw that, he picked up his cat and gave it to Hina.

"Cats can stay in Chermill. Keep him safe."

Hina's face is wide open. It is a smile that makes me forget all the complicated minds of those who always feel but see.

"Tell Baron Pollun I'll make good on him."

"Yes, Prince."

By the way, Melpire.

At first I gave her a gift for her favorite horse, and now I sent her a gift for the people she cares about.

"Will the baron ever send me a gift?"

Callian, who had received nothing from Melpire, said this and laughed again.

Anyway, Melpire is an interesting person.

The rain has stopped.

The late winter weather was very good and the hunting competition was not cancelled.

"It's an honor to meet you, Prince. This is Aizen Aprine."

So I finally met him.

The competition was organized by a group of nobles to give the prize to the most hunters.

Previously, Jan organized the final list for Calian, except for those mentioned by Melpire and Euria. Nearly thirty nobles went through three fertilizers and were eventually reduced to eleven.

That was enough.

The gathering of knights and wizards will give you enough strength to counteract the forces of the nobles in Brycen and Brissen's friendship.

Kalian delivers the list directly to Remain. As a result, all the names on the list were tied to Khalian.

The Earl Aefre, who sent out a whole bunch of sour rye cookies, smiled with a favorable face.

"The cookies were delicious. Thank you for eating."

Then he looks into the eyes of ten others gathered around him, one by one. The eyes of the nobles facing Kalian were different from those who came to the hunt competition.

"Nice to meet you."

You would have known from the look on the faces of others who participated in a group what the current place was for.

Callian will now start a full-scale fight with Brycen.

"I'm Callian."

As such, Kalian announced his name the second time.
