How to Live as the Enemy Prince

< Chapter 50. For public relations (5) >

It took me a year to get rid of silica.

It took two years to get rid of Evan.

In that case, Devil.

- Knock, knock, knock.

When I arrived at the royal palace of Cecretia, I looked back at my memories, and without a moment to speak to those who missed me, I met with Devilan first. I know it's true that I was called rather than met, but I did. Even for a moment, we kept our eyes on each other and shared the poison trapped in the hollow of horses.

The finger holding the glass cup of cold mint tea makes a slow sound. All I went into my body from morning until midday was a mouthful of mint tea in my hand, and a sweet coffee aroma in the morning.

Nevertheless, it doesn't feel hungry.

"Eat a lot of poison."

Since there was so much poison exchanged between each other, I have to be full without eating anything in particular.

Upon returning to the room, Calian, who was buried deep on the couch, thought, tapping the glass hundreds of times with the tip of his hand that he had placed on the armrest.

The poisoned sleeping scent prepared by Queen Deanna and Concubine Louise is no longer transmitted. After learning of Chase's transformation and Louis' betrayal, Devil is no longer careless. So if you let it go, Devil will be treated somehow while he's living his life in a slutty state.

No creature called the serpent forgives and forgets nothing, so Devil will not give up his vengeance against Chase and Louis or give up his deep interest in Khalian.

So what do we do?

'What should I do? It would be a pity to send even Itda back to her joyful self.'

'You don't have to worry. You will never see me return.'

How do I burn that snake, that poison, to the ground?

Prince Cairys. King of Cecretia. How?

- Knock, knock, knock.

Originally, I played a play to make myself suspicious of the relationship between Xeon and the red error, but I was beaten by Plants' wonderful backside. Maybe we're running out of time to get Devilan's attention about what Louise did.

So you howl in front of Devil.

After all, you bark from Devil's mouth until you hear a word that concerns Calian's safety. It may not be the way you planned it, but in doing so, you bound your gaze at Louis to yourself.

After that, it continues for a long reason.

To kill someone who is thinking exactly the same way as himself at this moment.

"Kirrie."

Without appraising how many minutes had passed or how many hours had passed, Kiri, who had been guarding the door ever since Kalian returned, opened his mouth.

"Bring me Lord Hertz. Quiet, not Tina."

"Yes, my prince."

Kyrie, who lowers her head briefly, comes out.

Kalian says he doesn't have to stand outside like that. He just shuts up.

It won't be long before Kiri is back in town. The call was opened and closed a little longer than before. And a little later in Kiri, Calian opens his mouth, looking at the door where no one is actually there.

"Come and sit down, Lord Hertz."

Arsen reveals himself as if he were removing the veil that had been hanging in the air with him. Arsen walks in along the Kyrie, using transparency magic, greets you and sits across from Calian.

"Welcome back."

"Thank you."

"No, I'm not."

A short answer, Arsenal doesn't say anything else. Calian laughs a little more calmly than usual.

Kirrie said she didn't look like much in front of Chase, but she seemed to care. That he was in the palace of Cecretia.

"How's your duck?" "

Calian asked a mild question, even though he cared about the peas' mood but didn't take it well. In the meantime, I couldn't put Coco's name on my mouth.

It's intuitive and easy to remember, and it means a lot, but you can't even stick to your mouth and hold a book without having to make a great name, like just a sturdy ton. You're good at naming people.

"Yes, Prince. He eats well and grows well enough to look at it every day."

Duck's mom smiled and replied, noticing that it was a question to change the mood. Since then, Calian has been silenced for a while, given a few light words. And then I thought about it again, and I said,

"I have a favor to ask of you."

"Yes, Prince. Tell me anything."

Khalian nods, holding it in his hand for a long time, and cools down the melted mint tea again. And after a sip of it, he pulled out a request for Arsen. Arsen nods happily when he hears the story and says thank you to Kalian.

After spending a bright time with the aroma of coffee and a cup of mint tea and eating a lot, it was before being dragged to the sea during puberty when it was dark.

* * *

I didn't have a small ocean with Chase.

Taking Plants without thinking about Chase's mood was enough for one spire, so I did not intend to go to the sea with him.

Moreover, the sea was also a place that Devil didn't know about, so he shouldn't move toward it. Queen Deanna's grave near the sea is worth a visit later.

After stepping up to Estina and staring at the uninterrupted Plants for a moment, Calian turns his head back. Plants was so volatile that they needed to see the sea that night, and the Knights of Cecretia who would eventually guide the unstoppable Khalian to the royal waters of Cecretia.

There are familiar faces.

No, there are only two strangers. The remaining thirteen are all those who know.

It was not the knights of the Kingsguard who remained in the palace until the end, and thus left the palace with Bern. They were the ones who stood there before the SS left the gate.

"· · · · · · I need to talk to Narjan, Elf Captain, later."

Calian opens his mouth, trying to erase all of the knights' names and their last faces.

"Since my brother loves the sea so much, I think you should take care of him so that he can go to his favorite sea anytime with his brother Dory."

Dark night.

The hoof sounds of a horse walking at a steady pace without running.

Everyone hears Calian's quiet voice, because that's all you can hear.

"Why is my brother planning something worthless?"

Surprisingly, Plants took the word "do not bark" quite long. Thanks to this, Kalian's lips go long. Now you know how Plants wants to talk.

Callian opens his mouth with a very small laugh.

"Whether it will work or not. No one knows unless you're a Cisspanian. So it's best to be prepared in advance. That's what I think. Especially these days."

"I understand you're not giving me a gift, so I need you to shut the hell up."

"Shut up, I'm sorry. I'm your brother who came all this way together and walked you all this way. Could you be a little nicer?"

"If you're going to keep spitting things you don't even know, let's go back."

"No, it's not. It's a step. We have to keep going."

Calian smiles and adds a slightly smaller voice.

"· · · · · · You had a birthday."

My younger brother said that if I get away from Sezar, I won't be able to stay in the royal palace, so I will be considerate to let him live around the sea he likes. And I'm the one who's going to be on top of the threesome, and I don't know why you're making such a useless plan.

In this way, the "Conversation of the Unusual Princes" is shortened. And the knights were silently staring ahead, pretending they didn't hear anything.

I wonder how much more I walked.

I can feel the deep saltiness and the sound of the big water watering the earth is starting to come in very little by little.

"This is it. I'll keep an eye out. Take a look around." "

Even if you came here for a reason, it's good to see you.

"Thank you."

Callian nods at the words leading the knights, pausing Raven's feet for a moment and looking around with a much-faced face. Then I grabbed Raven's belt.

Like the day we first met Chase a long time ago, Raven tried to run to where the waves could see him.

"Wait here. Raven."

Calian whispers to you from Raven's back.

Soon, Calian took out his pocket and checked the time and moved his jerky feet. You hear Plants following you.

Kalian leaves no footprints on the sand.

Two men walk towards the waves, leaving only one man's footsteps.

"What else did you think?"

At the end of those steps, Kalian opens his mouth, inhaling a mouthful of salt. Plants, who were looking at translucent silent membranes you wouldn't see outside, replied.

"Not really."

"I don't think so."

Kalian added a single letter with a smile.

"· · · · · · · · · ·."

It's not even peas' birthday yet.

Callian opens his mouth as he sees Plants' glabella frowning again.

"I'm here because you wanted to come. Are you trying to deceive Devil or are you trying to deceive me? I'm not sure what you're up to."

If you return to the palace, the two conversations you had before you arrived will be shared with Devil and he will not believe you. You know that the magical Khalian would never have a private conversation in the presence of knights.

I wonder if we can trust each other.

Or maybe we don't get along.

In the end, it is difficult to predict the steps to cheat or cheat.

"Or did you really want to see the ocean?"

"Both."

I have a plan, but I'm also here to see the sea.

"Curious. Different."

Instead of asking if you're going to let that scheme out, Calian nods and answers.

"It's different. Different ocean colors and different shapes. The sea is very dark, but not here. When it's really clear, there are days when it's hard to tell whether it's the sky or the sea."

"Yes."

"You have to come during the day to see that. Too bad."

"· · · · · · Later."

"Yes. I'll show you again. Later, when you can eat cod comfortably."

Soon, Calian bows down and sits down where he was standing. I had chairs and tables available to sit a little further away, but didn't mind. I just turned off the surprise of the first knights who would have seen the royal family sitting on the floor because there was no Bern who was supposed to sit and sleep everywhere.

"I didn't prepare a birthday present. I have so many gifts that I thought you might want to pay for them."

"I didn't ask for it."

"Yes."

"I think I've had one."

Calian raises his head and looks up at Plants.

Plants, who had been watching the sea and places for a long time, sat a little closer to the waves, a little further from Calian.

"You planted the Renieri."

"How did you know that?"

"Somehow."

"I didn't give it to you as a birthday present."

"It's the heart of the recipient."

Besides, it was about the same time anyway.

Somehow, I think we heard this together. After a short sigh, Calian lifts his head and looks up at the sky.

"I can't remember when I started, but I didn't see the sky at this age. If I had never seen it, I would be lying, but I had never looked at the sky consciously."

"Why."

"I couldn't see."

Callian continues to open his mouth, looking at the silver sky, literally pouring down.

"Having never seen the sky like that, I just lived, and then Devil died, and I got kicked out of the palace, as I said, and I had nowhere else to go, so I went to another little beach. It was the kind of place I told you to rest as comfortably as possible, so I wanted to spend some time there and go back."

Plants nods silently.

"Then, when it was hot and I couldn't stay in the hut, I lay outside and saw the sky. The moon was bright, there were stars. I was looking at it for a long time, and I smiled for no reason. I held the boat like a madman by myself and laughed."

"You're crazy."

"Oh, that's not true. It's true."

Calian smiles for a moment.

"There's no reason not to look up, I want to. That's how I looked up at the sky ever since. Look at the moon, look at the stars. Chase and I have a better bet that the clouds won't rain. I've been there."

By the way, Calian's voice, smiling again, comes up on the waves, saying that I have to collect all of his wagers anytime. A voice that sounded like the wind came out like a wave, even though it sounded like rain.

"He lowered his head. That day, sir. I didn't hesitate to look at it. I just, I don't care what I think, I just planted it. Renieri."

"I thought you didn't know."

"I just wanted to live for no reason. He didn't hesitate."

Before the plant stands in the way of silica. When I saw someone die, I lowered my head to prevent me from dying by Silica's secret. That's why I told him I planted the Renee. He didn't say what he thought and what he said to whom he planted it.

You asked me if I knew why I saved that foe's life, if I wouldn't tell you why I ended up living it, and I told you that I don't have anything to be sorry about. I think I said a little too much, but I don't remember everything, so I just didn't say it.

"Well, anyway."

An adequately spoken Kalian pulls out a small pouch from his arms. He turned it around a few times and took something the size of two palms of his hand and gave it to Plants. I thought it was my birthday, but it wasn't my birthday present, I just gave him what I was going to use.

"What is it?"

"You know how to work magic."

"You said you didn't have a gift."

"It's not a gift."

After not forgetting another half-word until next summer, Kalian smiled and said one last time.

"I know why you told me to come and live here. Since the old house is here, and the old brother is here, and the old Mother is with him, I think he thought it would be appropriate to come back here. Because she knew me, I was already thinking the same thing. And I didn't even know it. When we're done here, we should go back. So you don't have to worry about me."

Plants looks at the crystal in his hand without another word.

The one that Eline sent for Alan. With green tea that smelled like fireworks that Le Maine and Alan drank.

After having a cup of tea with my new son, he gave Plants the item he had sent to keep an eye on his face wherever he went.

I asked Alan after I got back from the tower, and the other one should be here by now.

- Meow!

- Niang!

He'll have it.

You hear a sound before you can even see what's on the other side.

He added one more word to Plants, who was still looking down on it without another word.

"Just in case you think I'm the only one going back. Even though I have a lot, don't be jealous because there's nothing you lack more than me."

"· · · · · · · Howl."

"I gave you a gift, but you're overreacting."

"You said it wasn't a gift."

"Oh, right."

Callian gets up from his seat and throws the sand on his clothes.

"I don't think I'll forget your face, but don't forget it. Say hello for a second. I'm..."

Kalian looks at the distance for a moment and smiles.

Satisfactory growling like a predator who has found good prey makes a red light. At a distance, Kalian's eyes narrow, looking at the other lights of color that looked similar to those gathered at his fingertips.

"I'll be right behind you, my clever brother."

Under the black sky in front of the Black Sea, Kalian hides in the shadows.

- Whoo-hoo!

The image of the red light spreads out into the air.
