How to Live as the Enemy Prince

< Chapter 56. Serpent's Grave (7) >

It was raining, I guess.

Calian looks a little sad about the rain in this blue winter. Then I opened my mouth with a face that was dull.

"It's been a long time since I've had rain. Anyway, I guess rain doesn't really fit me very well."

After eating so much of the sandals that had been returned to its original owner's hand rather than being handed them over, Plants, who put the tangerine back in his mouth, with all the thin and hard skin peeled off from his struggling fingertips, turned his head back out the window again.

Winter.

It rained in such a cold winter that Plants had never seen before looking out the window. In the sky without a cloud, I did not remain without a cloud. So either it really rained out that window while Plants was asleep, or it only rained in front of the guy who was sitting alone and forgot tangerines. I don't know.

"Why are you here?"

"I like it here."

"Description."

"I came here somehow."

The sky that said it was raining is blue. It was far from me that the sea of light seemed to be indistinguishable from the sky, unfolding endlessly under the sky.

So this wasn't an annex to the royal palace of Cecritia. Queen Deanna, and now the villa of Luis the Concubine.

I fell asleep in the palace and opened my eyes and was in the villa.

"Explanation. Correct."

His face was nothing, and now he forgot the banana he had left for his patients.

Calian shrugs as he chews the banana. And I said in that exact voice that I had heard the news that the rain had stopped at dawn.

"By the time Sir fell asleep, Sir Hertz had returned to his post on his own terms. Sir Castrin and Sir Hertz killed half the Knights of the Devil outside of Marquis Lynn. Thanks to that, the nobles here were unable to say anything about Sir Castrin killing knights unilaterally, and I overlapped the sword in Devil's heart."

"· · · · · · · Someone threw something at the heart."

"I didn't kill him. This way, this way, just passing through. I just gave him a little scare."

Threats are extraordinary.

What am I supposed to do with my big brother?

"Ha."

I knew if I called, I'd understand and come out properly. I didn't expect to blackmail myself. The problem is, I know why he did it. I think I know too well as I can see. I can only sigh.

My shoulder aches as I try to sweep my head with my right hand, and I frown without knowing it. I only realized why my brother, the enemy who was busy in trouble, gave me a tangerine that he hated so much while giving it to me quietly.

"Shoulders are different, so it takes a long time to heal. Use the other arm, which has one for this."

"Okay."

Even so, the answer is very good.

A smiling Kalian, who showed me how to fix it, opened his mouth again, seeing a gentleman looking for no more words to say than a short answer to his brother who couldn't bark for a moment after missing his collar, and then came back with a very good bite.

"Anyway, that's why I'm no longer in the palace. I was angry because I had to stop what was going on with Hina. If we take the next step, Brother Chase will be king on his back and on the throne. That's why they're all here for the fragile Prince and His Holiness excuse to be so much injured by the assassin Devil sent."

Suddenly, there was a squeak somewhere. I think it was the duck the blue-haired lunatic commander brought back to work on his own.

Peas closed their eyes for the life I couldn't save because I liked drinking and had a bad temper. I came to this far-off country because I thought I would have no way to break up now that my skills are well packed in addition to my public relations personality. I didn't care about it very much, but I think it would be right to be unfair.

"It was Chase who started it, and you and I did well, so now it's time for you to finish it again."

"My brother, who knows it so well, why he went out in the rain."

I didn't know it at first, but I felt it all the time a while ago.

Between the sweet smells, there was a silly smell of rain, and a sillier smell of blood.

"We're not the nightmare people anymore."

Calian's hand, which had just shattered the fourth banana, paused for a moment. The smell of God's sweet smell led to the horse instead of the hands that were moving diligently.

"I want you to stop sleeping. Me, too, brother."

It's been a long time since Plants fell asleep without having any dreams. He nods slowly and wakes up. Everything else was fine except for the sore shoulder on the right shoulder, so there was no pressure to move.

"Get out."

"You're getting ready to leave."

Plants nods. Kalian looks at you and asks again, "You're not full."

"You're okay to move already. What are you going to do?"

"A duel."

"You mean with me."

"Or else."

"There are many knights besides me."

"That's enough."

"My frail brother, who made you my fiancée without knowing my brother, will regret it if you fight me now."

"Now it's a habit to bark in half."

"A lot, you'll regret it."

"You."

"I'm sure."

"Enough. Stop barking."

The prince of another country, who raised a bird well and started using it properly, is going to be a while ahead. He will make something better to do. After barely finishing what I had forgotten or cinnamon tangerines next to my brother who fell asleep, I will take care of the one who is now caring about coming back because of the civil war that the old brother started. I said let's have a duel that I haven't been able to keep up.

It also meant not to worry too much for someone, and also to someone who had suffered a lot alone.

"Yes."

After understanding it all, I finally answered like this.

He knew that he would eventually do nothing but stand side-by-side at the highest point of this villa and watch Secreta from afar.

- Flutter!

When it rained, a clear breeze passed under the private sky.

With that wind, things have been disappearing all over Secreta for days. The smell of roasting coffee and baking bread, the sound of chopping meat and shells and using vegetables, and the busy movements of those who carry books and display flowers. There were no wagons crossing the street, nor were there any jockeys working diligently toward where to start the day. Especially when it wasn't a festival for everyone to rest, everything that needed to arrive in the morning was stopped.

Instead, the winds converge from all over Cecritia, and the insides converge into the square.

- Flutter!

The flag flickers.

Some were painted with blue flowers on a white background. Some with a black shield and a sword on a grey base, and some with a white staff on a red base. There was also a picture of a small castle or a golden lion. There were also portraits of armor, or goldsmiths, singing mermaids and fishing boats. In the desolate square, where no one was coming or going, each flag with so many paintings appeared.

So it doesn't matter whether it's an unmanned family, a merchant family, or a fishing family, there are so many nobles. After changing their minds under Chase's command and gathering under Allen's help, they were numerous nobles and their soldiers gathered in front of Lazian and Arianne. The flag of many was spread in unison under the private sky.

Even though all those people were gathered, no one opened their mouths. Arianne, who was standing next to the Knight Leader of the Foreign Guard in front of them, and everyone behind them, were silent.

"Your Majesty, it's too late."

"Your knights are strong. Even if we bring everyone together here, we're not stronger than the degraded troops inside that Resistance."

Arianne stares nervously at the tightly closed fortress gate and says to herself, Then the person beside him gave me the answer right away. The first person to raise Chase's hand in the capital. He was also known to Arianne for a long time as the commander of the Foreign Guard Knights.

It was also because of Arianne's help with the Legal Officer, Lazian, and because of her temperament with the knights she met in the capital. Someone who knew Arianne well has said something to reassure her.

"So if you wait a little longer, that shield will be gone, too."

"I know, I know."

It was strange.

Arianne is unfamiliar to stand in front of the nobles on a day when she faces a tightly closed gate, not the sound of soldiers standing behind her, not the feel of armor I've ever worn before. I was scared.

Of course I do. I know better than anyone that Arianne shouldn't be nervous here. But there is a Lazian inside the resistance. There's Chase, so he's anxious.

The gates have not been opened for a long time. If I could hear them fighting, I'd be better off, but I can't hear anything or feel anything. It was anxious and crazy. It was best not to let the other nobles and soldiers standing at a distance notice Arianne's anxiety.

"Those nobles are all gathered here now because of the infancy. If the spirit hadn't reached it, the Immunity Gate would have closed and gone back by the time that shield was up. We can no longer have the help of Baron Manasil."

Devilan closes the Resistance.

The Devil, ahead of the last knights who followed him, remains undefeated until the end. You shut down the Resistance and drove the Great Barrier to prevent Alan from bringing any more troops directly into the Resistance. It was also the first and last gift given to the great king of Cecretia by a long time ago by the Sispanians.

Perhaps Allan had already stopped a similar sorcerer at Cairys temporarily. Devil knew it, but drove it. I knew Alan would never break it. And Alan couldn't stop the giant sorcerer for a moment.

The last line of defense for the royal palace of Cecritia could not be announced that a wizard with an enemy in Cairis could touch it. I couldn't break it with my own hands just to catch a Devil.

So Alan won't make a move anymore.

"I know. Lord Manasil has already intervened more than the baron of Cecretia could in doing so far. I know that if I go any farther than this, I won't be seen as just the Baron of Cecretia. If I interfere any longer, I will become poisonous to the future degenerate."

"Yes, Your Grace."

- Flutter!

Tons of flags are waving again.

'Don't worry, Arianne. I'll be back in no time.'

Arianne looked around in front of the unfamiliar mood that she didn't want to go through again. With little knowledge of the situation of the prince within the fortress, only this moment was left behind by those who had gathered to believe in the complaint of only the Marquis Lean.

Before he was married to the Crown Prince, there were those behind him who believed and waited, knowing that he was the strongest family in the country against the Devils.

So what Arianne had to do at this moment was not to be shaken. I wasn't raising a sword for them, nor was I leading them on behalf of the Knight Master. Putting them all together here, holding them together so they don't scatter again. That was what Arianne had to do now. To do so, I had to stay steady.

"Okay, I'll wake up."

You've done a lot of work so far.

Arianne convinced the Lazians, strengthened the law, and moved the soldiers around. So now, there's nothing more to worry about. Arianne, who had her lips clenched once, nodded her head and lifted her lower back as if to look around in relief.

- Flutter!

The flag flies.

The last blue flag you see in the square shakes the white flag.

The wind blows and the red wine at the tip of the spear is shaken together. The wind blows and the flags of the house of those standing in front of them are pulsating. The Alliance flags flare in front of it again. The wind blows.

- Flutter!

Above resistance.

The flag of the crowned eagle is raised, clutching the round shield. It was pulsating.

Royal flag of Cecretia.

It was Chase's signal.

Arianne, who was holding the harp, gave her all the strength in her fist.

- Kuku Gugu Bow · · · · · · ·!

I hear the sound I've been waiting for.

'Become king. I'll be back.'

The inner gate will only open.

* * *

Chase, standing in front of the palace, sets foot towards the palace.

When the resistance is closed far and the shield is activated.

The Yellow Wolf Svervain handed over control of all the birds and now the knights to Tailan. In Tailan's footsteps, I believe they are returned.

You see that even Prince Cairys turned his back on Devil's reckless plan. I saw Allan stop the Grand Wizard Devil from retrieving it. I saw the flags of other nobles gathering in the sea outside the fortress.

I held on to the hearts of all the nobles outside for a moment and saw Prince Man. You see the prince standing in front of Devil and debating his guilt. I saw the prince who first asked me to put the surviving child to sleep at the hands of Devil. The prince, who held her hand, sees how many people vomited their fever at the Devil, how many people remembered what he had erased.

"Make way."

Chase walks towards those who have seen it all.

To get it back, I walked to get it back. I returned to the palace. Lead Chase's knights and knights to Chase's palace.

There were none to stop them.

Obviously.

I slowly moved my feet without stopping for a moment. It does not stop at the entrance of the palace, through an unstoppable palace gate, through a garden full of red Begonian flowers.

- Flutter!

A long white cape with a black lining blows in the wind.

The one who could not be innocent walked towards the one who was going down to impersonate pure white.

That's how you get past the crowd, past the knights.

"You've come a long way. You."

Conquest of kings.

I thought you were wearing that.

Devilan, sitting quietly with a cup of tea in his hand, talks to you first. I smiled as I calmed down my pale face because I couldn't sleep well for a few days.

"I know exactly how you feel right now."

The brown eyes stared at the bright eyes.

Chase does not refuse, but confronts the Devil.

"That feeling of devastation, of horror, of having the whole world nonetheless. I know that."

"Regrettably."

Chase opens his eyes. I opened my mouth.

"I feel like I've taken my first step in a long, long way to walk. That's it."

A voice of tranquility, truly serene and quiet, does not disguise serenity.

"Your Majesty."

Devilan chuckles, putting down his cup of tea. I nodded, smiling for a while as if I liked it. The laughter was not the same as before, and Chase saw not only Calian at dawn, but also that his fingertips were trembling.

Chase also did not turn away.

You look straight at it, casting a ghost, a Devil, a Devil, not even the courage to put a dark, poisonous substance directly into the cup.

"To hell. Take him."

I order you to go to hell.

It was the end of the last fight.
