How to Live as the Enemy Prince

< Chapter 30. My People (5) >

White sand in the middle of winter.

The foam of the waves hovering over it is silent.

It quietly comes back and forth with everything in its arms, and the sound of the waves pushing it away as if it were swallowing everything up.

Quiet or pushy.

Generous or relentless.

"Me."

A voice that is hard to grasp.

"I thought I told you to bite your feet. Was he dreaming?"

Birds that flew in the morning dew quietly bowed their heads, feeling the waves in their forest-like voices. You can see that the eyes overlooking your bird do not appear to be hidden in the deep pressed white hood, but it is not a mercy within.

Looking down at the three men who kneeled before him, Chase says,

"Dreams are already so tiring, I can hardly sleep anymore. But did I have a dream?"

Tell them not to go after the Wizards. I told you to go back to Cairosis. I must have said something like that, but it was my mistake.

The yellow woodpecker bows his head to the ground.

"Otherwise, I don't think I would have let it go so lightly."

I'd rather you didn't hear a word I said. So answer me if I accidentally disobeyed an order.

I'd rather you make excuses.

I didn't know that.

Chase's expectations are met by a sinking yellow woodpecker.

"· · · · · · · No face, degradation."

Saying you clearly checked Chase's orders, but you didn't follow them. That there's no excuse.

"I made my own decisions and acted on my own terms. I'm sorry."

"Solidarity · · · · · · · ·."

When I came back to the answer that I really disobeyed orders rather than dreaming, I drew a long line of lips below the white robe.

"The birds I met in my dream didn't know that. It's strange."

I didn't like this situation and smiled.

The grudge is grinning and you don't know who to turn to.

"Since when do my birds have heads?"

A cold horse like a blade.

The birds didn't know that the short memorial was Chase himself, not the birds.

"I'm so sorry."

So the yellow woodpecker said he was sorry again.

I'd rather you tell me why. He was apologizing without even saying it, even though it was a noble gesture in Chase's heart.

I got angry and ate at that attitude again, and the young smile disappeared from Chase's mouth. As the remnants of the fading waves sink into the sand, the voices of innocence settle.

"Coming here, all I could do was give up my expectations. You're letting me down all my expectations for the birds I left behind."

The yellow woodpecker had no other answer.

What Chase was dreaming about, what he was devastating about, what he had left to look forward to. I only bowed my head because I didn't know anything.

- Shroud.

The cold ringing echoes in the yellow woodpecker's ears.

A white sword that looks like it's been baked.

The dawn's sunlight reflected on the body that was too immaculate to take life, made of the known pure steel that can no longer be obtained.

"If you have something to say, say it. I'll listen."

Knowing that it was Chase's decision, the yellow woodpecker shuts up and lowers his head even more.

- Tell me when you get back. He met me, and he said he wanted you to pick it up.

The Yellow Wool also knows what Kalian's words mean. That's what Kalian said after that. From now on, your life is more at stake than information. So obviously, it was the last thing I wanted to ask Chase to do.

So I couldn't say it out of my mouth.

"No, Your Highness."

Yellow woodpecker was neither a soldier nor a knight.

A bird that moves in secret in a place several times more dangerous than them. I knew better than anyone how sinful it was for those birds to disobey their superiors. That's why I couldn't tell him to save me.

Chase looks down at the yellow woodpecker and the other two, who are also kneeling silently next to him, for a while.

A long time passed without a word.

- Tak!

The sound of the drawn blade returning to my house uncut.

I stared at Chase with a puzzled face that the blade that seemed to have been reflected suddenly disappeared.

"Back to the nest."

The answer to the question was heard from behind.

It was Chase's guardian, and Tailan, the Swordsmanship Swordsmanship, who approached them without a sound.

"I'll be in touch when I need to."

It meant I was going to save him.

A few days ago, Remain was scolded by Allen.

I was really upset, not nagging. It was because of the lavender car I gave to Plants.

"My child's wounded father in all the world will be nothing but a charge. You still have no idea why Prince Kalian brought down that palace. Don't be sick. I'm just a little disappointed to be groomed, but I can hardly shake the guy who just woke up to walk on his own feet, and I'm interested in that, too. Do you think that's why I'm interested? '

Then, don't take out the coffee in front of Calian, and when dealing with Plants, take out the flowers or anything that smells good, and don't touch the roses of Randall, Bride. If you want to be interested in someone, you can start by looking at what hurts.

'Let's not make excuses about being a bad father, let's try to understand. If you do that again, I will take all three princes with me and go south.'

Then he said this horrible thing.

Remain, reflecting on his own efforts to dig my own grave, could not say a word to the king that the erl who stood in front of him would kidnap three princes at once.

In the end, Le Maine decided to just ask about the unauthorized outing of Kalian and Plants. Randall's probation has also been lifted.

It's because I empathized with Allan's words that the princes would do better than what he did.

Anyway, thanks to what happened, Kalian was able to find the forest again without a swarm. Unlike the Chermill Palace, the air itself was perfectly clear without the smell of roses.

"Stars are nice at night, and the breeze is nice in the morning."

Come to think of it, I only visited this place at night.

In fact, it was difficult to find it only at night, and I only came here twice. So it was a little awkward to say it always came at night.

After all, Kalian has been in the forest for the third time, and it's early this morning.

The ferocious beasts who are reluctant to the power of the Sispanians can't live, but the birds are nesting, so the various disturbances that are alert to strangers' visits ring beautifully.

- If the yellow bird speaks to me, I want you to live, and if it doesn't, I want you to believe me.

When I heard the bird whistle, I remembered the letter I sent to Chase a while ago.

I thought that when I visited Karen the Knights, I remembered that I was surprised when someone who knew too well was inside. It was a wash that Chase had planted to really use for news or to spread news, and someone he knew well when he was Bern. He must have recognized him and allowed him to use it if he needed to.

So Callian wrote to Karen's knight through a green brochure. Callian's words, "Let him live," meant that he would let him live, and if he didn't, he would consider him to be a trustworthy person.

Maybe Chase is the only one who really remembers Bern. I didn't doubt that Calian would do it, even if it wasn't the same Chase we spent the past with.

"I've been here every day since. It was always a good place."

A slightly later response to Calian's statement that the stars and the wind were pleasant.

It was Kiri who waited a moment to answer the question, as if she was thinking something else. Calian takes a deep breath and says,

"I messed it up, but was it okay?"

It was Kalyan who messed with the forest in the face of Allen. It looks fine on its own, but it doesn't mess with its insides.

"Once you get used to it, you can't see it either. It seemed like they were all part of the forest, so the prince's knife prints looked good, too."

Kalian nods, smiling slightly.

It seemed to have slowed down a lot in Kiri. Of course, I thought it would be difficult for Calian to rest assured and reassured, but there wouldn't be any big problem.

When the eyes of the blue and black Kiri saw Kalian, there was no more confusion.

"I think it's okay to go see Hina now. Can I do that?"

Kyrie asks with a cautious but unhesitant voice, as if to reassure her. It seems he understood that Kalian had deliberately detached Hina.

He nodded and replied, as it also said that the stems were no longer visible.

"Whatever."

I wanted to walk for a long time, so I left Raven at the entrance of the forest. Kiri's words, 'Iris,' were the same.

So they walked side-by-side on the dirt. Walking so slowly, Kiri opens his mouth.

"There's something I'd like to ask the prince."

"Yes."

He gives you permission to ask, but he doesn't say anything to Kiri. Instead of being frustrated, Calian quietly waits for the next statement.

about the time he entered the forest, crossed a deep trail, and arrived at a place that was full of water. Kyrie stands on her way to Calian. Calian's feet stop together, and Kiri's silent voice follows.

"I wondered if I deserved it."

And I asked him this question.

Khalian does not ask what it deserves.

Kiri reclaims the sword that Callian took for a moment. I deserve to be a knight of Kalian someday. You deserve to stay by Callian's side. That's what it's all about.

Maybe it was a question of whether he deserved to kill people.

"Kirrie."

"Yes, Prince."

Standing across Kyrie, Kalian raises his hand.

Then he stroked Kiri's head.

The day Kyrie drew her head when she entered Chase's office. So the day I got Chase a gold coin. Even back then, I still remember Bern, who thought he was still older in Kiri, but still had a peculiar look of growing up.

She compliments Kyrie's blonde hair, older and taller than herself, as if it's soothing for a child. Zec stroked.

"What do you think was the last thing you showed me?"

Then, in this solemn voice, I asked him with my mouth the last day. Do you know what Kiri showed Bern at the end of that day?

"My back."

There's an answer that doesn't bother you at all.

A straight answer came out without any doubt.

- Stay with me. Do not stop.

In Kyrie still.

Kyrie's answer is correct, not correct, and Callian does not answer. I only had a soft smile on my face that might not fit so well.

"I think that answers your question."

With that in mind, how can Kalian talk about his qualifications?

"I just think I'm grateful."

The mother of the king, the knight of the king, the wizard of the king, the king's men, all of them have gone mad.

A king who wouldn't go mad alone by his side.

What he decides and what he decides. I wonder what he might be up to and pick up the sword. I didn't know what he was flying the falcon for.

I still wonder what all those people died for, but I have no idea what Bern came back for, though.

Still.

"This is how I found you again."

The only one who can stop Kalian from showing everyone his back is me again.

"You should be thankful."

Callian holds out the blade of glow in his hand.

Confident he'll never get it back again. Promised I wouldn't send it first again.

Promising to see you this time.

Kirrier.
