How to Live as the Enemy Prince

< Chapter 17. The Step (1) >

Silique.

And Evan Brissen.

Who's first?

Remain said he was going to hunt, and when he got out of the palace with all the knights Kaerra Allen, he summoned the knights Raon and Karen's captains, as Silica had been waiting for him.

Of course, they knew very well what had happened to Pavel's knights recently. So I was taking care of myself in a way that I didn't want to be seen by Silica. But Silica found them herself.

Finally, the two chieftains who could not refuse the order found Silica's greenhouse. And I listened to what I expected.

- Coming Monday, the Wizard's Banquet of Balkans.

You said that if you did what Silica told you to do, you would be rewarded enough. He did not tell us what to do or what to compensate for.

The two knight captains first asked for some time to think, then left Heicia Palace. The deep waters filled their faces.

"There's nothing to be embarrassed about."

"So am I."

I haven't told him what I want him to do yet. Silica said it wasn't just that difficult.

A deep sigh emanates from his mouth.

"You asked for an answer by tomorrow morning. What are you going to do?"

Raon's Master was no different.

He shakes his head and says,

"Only the erl's orders, I suppose."

"But this place is a palace. How dare you disobey the Queen's command."

They were royal knights. So, of course, they had to obey Remain. However, there was no Le Maine's name in any of their conversations.

Will you listen to Silica or will you follow Evan?

That was it.

Eventually, they broke up and headed to their own office.

And they both saw a letter on the desk. The sender was the same.

It was a letter from the late Evan Brissen.

A letter from the same person to the two knight captains.

The two masters' faces were equally severely stiffened as they moved their eyes busy in their seats and read the contents of the letter.

* * *

It should never have been forgotten.

So it was definitely Kalian's mistake.

"Meow!"

I should have told you whose rose garden it belonged to.

No matter how busy she was attending the hunt competition, she should have told me that and left.

"Meow, meow!"

For whatever reason, I should have told you that cats shouldn't go there.

So...

After meeting Kalian when he had not given up on Bern's appearance, Hina, who considered him more like my sister than my sister, became involved with Plants who was no less than an outlaw.

It was all Calian's fault.

* * *

It started with a conversation that I had at breakfast the day of the hunt.

After arriving at the restaurant first and sitting alone, Calian just walked in and asked me as soon as he saw Plants' face.

"I heard you got a lot of weight. Are you okay?"

Plants was actually in better condition than any other day.

I didn't sneeze once, not once.

Instead of asking why he was barking at Calian in the morning, Plants just nodded and replied.

"You're in no condition to hunt."

I told you not to come on the hunt so openly. What else would you say?

Plants had already guessed the reason why Kalian was in such a hurry to hunt. Therefore, he also somewhat understood why he should not be there.

Divide the nobles into the forces of Van Breezen and Chin Breezen, a hunting contest that Calian created to scare back, and Remain.

Plants, however, is closely related to Brycen. So if he knew about this atmosphere, he would have to tell Silica. We can't help but pass on Calian's information to the Bricen side. So, it means not to get hit, but to stay in your room comfortably.

"I'll tell you what. Rest well."

With the attention of the acolytes, there are no more details to tell. Plants returned to my room that way.

Thanks to this, Le Maine's hunt for Plants was being held, with the exception of Plants, who suddenly announced their sudden disappearance that day.

And that afternoon.

Plants has been stuck in the room all morning. Then I returned in simple clothing and left Chermill Palace. I wanted to go to the training ground prepared for the sponsorship. I thought it was about the time I felt like I had lost a little weight in other people's eyes.

"Meow!"

Then in the morning, I noticed a silver and white hairball that I suddenly saw running hard somewhere. I wouldn't have cared if I'd seen that. After a while, I had to watch a maid with the same color head headed that way.

It was time for Randall to be in the garden.

"· · · · · · · · · · · Ha."

Plants moves his feet.

For the sake of the backwardness of Calian's cat's accident.

For whatever reason, there should never have been a conflict between Callian and Randall at this point in time.

* * *

It was a path for the princes to walk, so there were no servants or maids to enter it alone. Because of this, Hina had never been to the garden and did not hear what the garden was like.

When the kitten ran out of Hina's arms, Hina tried to go to Merlin without going directly to the garden. Then I remembered that Merlyn was attending the meeting on Jan's behalf.

Hina was forced to go to the garden because she couldn't lose the cat that the prince had given her in less than a day. Until then, I thought the princes had all gone hunting, so I thought I'd just go inside and look for the cat.

"Meow!"

You hear the cat cry as it passes by the man-made lake.

And I ran into the sound of it.

'Ahh · · · · · · · · · ·.'

The first prince who was sitting with his knees bent in a corner of the garden, trimming the roses, and next to him went to play with the dirt. And the first prince's escort acolyte stared at Hina with a wary face, holding such a cat wrongfully.

"Who are you?"

Hina leans back, startled.

'This is bad.'

The Grand Chamberlain of Randel would have attended the meeting as well.

The escort acolyte who was out with Randall asked on his behalf. I may have encountered it several times, but I didn't recognize Hina.

"Who are you?" he asked. "

The escort acolyte in Randell was very different from Kiri.

He was big, he was scary, and he was threatening. I didn't give her time to decide whether she should play Suir or take out the notebook in her arms and write it.

"This must be you, too. How dare you put up with this place."

As you look up at the cat, the servant steps forward to Hina. Finally, Hina tried to take out the notebook to explain the situation.

However, the sound of someone new arriving here stops Hina's behavior.

- Jubbuck.

Plants walks in between the acolyte and Hina.

Hina looks up, surprised by the dark clogged vision, then looks at the pale emerald hair and bows his head again.

'What a big deal!'

You ran as if you were in front of Randall, and even Plants showed up here. I regret waiting for Merlin to leave the meeting.

"Good to see you again."

Whether he intended to rebuild royal etiquette or not, Plants came to the garden alone, bowing his head and giving Randall the greetings he wanted. Then you look at Randell's acolyte for a moment and open your mouth.

"I don't even recognize the prince's maid. Why do you carry a bodyguard who doesn't know if he has bad eyes or bad head?"

It's not hard to keep Randall's acolytes in your mouth.

He was scolded for not being a servant in Chermill, but for not being able to distinguish even the prince's own handmaiden. His gaze was wide open that he didn't understand how to escort him.

The acolyte looks down at Plants.

"I'm sorry."

Plants no longer answered him. Instead, he glanced back at Hina and said.

"Put it away."

Of course it's a cat.

Hina bows and greets you. She takes back the cat from the attendant's hand and quickly steps out of the garden. An immature cat lets out a hug in Hina's arms.

By the time you can't hear the cat, Randall slowly rises to his feet and opens his mouth at Plants.

"He told me to come hunting. Aren't you leaving?"

Plants' rudeness was not a day or two, so he did not mention what he said to his servant in front of him. So I would have fixed it a long time ago if I had a better personality.

"That's it."

Plants gave a simple answer. Randall doesn't even nod.

"I didn't know it was your time. I'll be going."

Soon, Plants turns back, saying: It's because I know it takes a long time to talk to Randall. Randall glanced at the back of such plants, saying.

"You two seem to be getting along very well."

Plants' feet stop in place.

Even if the escort acolyte didn't know, Randall remembers Hina. This is why Plants noticed why he had come to the garden at this time. Why Plants helped Calian's maid.

Maybe Calian and Plants are working together. "

Plants closes his eyes and opens. Randall, who started doubting once, can no longer be deceived. And Randall wouldn't have told Brissen about this.

So instead of asking him what he was talking about, Plants only answered with a bunch of ridicule.

"You'll regret this, too."

Randall sits back down. He replied in a quiet voice.

"How can that be?"

That said, Plants was delighted to have one less competitor. Plants comes out of the garden without another word.

Then I saw Hina standing in front of the Chermill Palace again.

Plants glances back at Hina for a moment, as it seemed to have been standing there waiting for him.

"Why."

Then Hina gave me the notebook she had in her hand. On the frozen page, there was a short sentence.

- Thank you for your help.

Plants knew Hina was Calian's servant, but now he knows she can't speak. But I didn't want to say anything else about him, so I just nodded and went back to my room.

Kalian came back from the hunt that night, too. However, there was no other response to him.

A day passed that didn't seem so quiet.

And Monday.

The day of Balkans' founding ceremony.

The day has come when many have waited for their own reasons.
