How to Live as the Enemy Prince

Of course, Jan said so.

The most insignificant person in the palace is Kalian.

"That's a little unfair. I'm really busy."

We have a lot to do.

I had to meet with the Sispanians and tell them that the Sea Dragon Arnigel had obtained a piece of the Time Axis, and that Arnigel had almost died for a moment because he used it on his own.

Of course, the latter is more important.

"I'm going to tell the Sispanians what the saffron did."

"Fish?"

"Yes, very nasty fish."

"Are you saying you're busy telling the Sispanians what the fish did?"

"No, Jan. There's more to do than that."

You must teach Jan to harmonica, compete with Demirea, teach Riley how to use both hands, and continue to teach Plants not only how to use swords, but also how to use magic. Above all, I had to keep an eye on Kiri's sword, which was changing every day. It was the most important period.

1/23

We should also think about the new information organization that Eila is preparing for, and see if there are any other problems with the school work in Euria and the top of Melpire. I had to be briefly briefed on the situation in Whitlin territory, and I had to meet with Siona and talk.

And most importantly,

I had to gather the most beautiful flowers from this earth, weave together the most difficult jewels in the world, and put together the most noble things in the night sky, in the summer sea, in the midday wind, and in the winter forest. I also had to think about what I would give for Hina's birthday, which is unfortunate. It's only a few months away.

What about Arsen?

I'll take care of everything myself.

"Even if you're so busy, no one will believe you're busy because you're enjoying three meals and a full tea time. You take care of taking a bath every day for over an hour."

"You said it was good to eat well and rest well."

"Good. Of course it's good. I'm just saying it looks that way."

Yan, who drank elegantly the tea brewed from roasted oats, told me not to misunderstand.

"Earlier today, Derek took bread and ham and salad and went to the Wilhelm coffin. I know you're busy, but the prince is jealous that you're not busy."

"It's not that I'm free, it's that you're busy. Anyway, it's on its own. Who would go across the border like that?"

There's a lot of work going on in the Wilhelm coffin.

Very, very badly pushed.

I wouldn't have had to go on a journey without knowing it, so I couldn't eat properly for a few days. I did what I did to help Callian, but that doesn't mean that he can help Wilhelm. However, in order to become an adult, you have to take responsibility for your actions.

Arsen, who was dragged away by my doctors.

I'll take care of everything myself.

"By the way, it's been a while."

When you eat a mouthful of sticky, thinly-baked dough without adding almonds and sliced coconuts, you hear crispy noises. It tastes like a similar flavor to different oat tea. Callian looks at Jan, who enjoyed a relaxing tea time with a relaxed face for a while.

"Are the Dukes of Siegfried back yet?"

"Yes, I've been told I'll be arriving in a few days. If there's anything you want to tell your father, I'll check the exact date."

"No. Not Siegfried ball. I need to speak to Baron Siegfried."

"Mother?"

"Yes."

Sherrie Siegfried.

She is the daughter of Kinz Change Bag, Slay's wife, and Jan and Demirea's mother. A man who oversees the knights of many cities that make up the Duke of Siegfried. And most of all, people who are good at making candy, making cookies, often traveling, and love hot springs.

After Callian mentioned Sherry, Jan asked, "What a surprise."

"Would you like to see it in the palace or the duc?"

It doesn't matter why you're looking for a serie you haven't met since you visited Siegfried for Roselita, what you'll tell her when you meet her. The prince's servant, not Sherry's son and Calian's sidekick, should keep a schedule. No more, no less.

"I think we should go to the duc. Tell him to schedule it with me."

"Are you accompanying me, my prince?"

"Yes. I'm here to see you, not me."

"Yes, I understand. We'll get back to you as soon as we can."

Callian laughs when he hears this. After Jan's eyes turn round, Calian says with a smile on his face.

"Jan. It's about your mother. Why don't you ask me if you can't even hide your curiosity? You're welcome to wonder about that."

Kiri, Plants, Yan.

Why is everyone living in such a mysterious place?

"I was worried that I might cross the line again."

Yan replied:

Again.

Calian's smile fades slightly.

I forgot.

Kalian blinks a few times without saying anything and looks at Jan.

"· · · · · · · Me. To you."

I forgot.

- I'm curious. I don't even know how to get over it. Every day, every day, you want to meddle in every incident. I don't like what you're doing. It's uncomfortable. It's annoying. It's really annoying.

· · · · · · Blinking.

- And now that you're a high-ranking acolyte, you want to play my guardian? What about you? How far are you willing to cross?

Yeah, that's what I said.

I guess I did.

"No, Prince. I shouldn't have said that. I said useless things without even knowing it."

"No, Jan. That's what I said."

I'm reminded of what I told Jan.

I can't remember.

I don't know why I did what I did. I don't remember anything as if it were white paper. Like it was purposefully erased. Like cleaning a stain off a marble with a hand towel.

"I didn't mean it. It wasn't like that. I tried to say I was sorry, but I couldn't. I know you made a mistake. I never said I was sorry. I forgot it when I covered it up. I shouldn't have forgotten. I should have told you it wasn't like that."

But I can see that for sure.

I didn't know why the old Khalian said that to Jan, but I only knew he didn't mean it.

I didn't know why.

I knew I regretted those horrible words.

"I'm sorry, Jan. For hurting me."

On behalf of the old Khalian, I finally opened my mouth, retrieving the fragments of a memory that I had remembered. I wanted to send an apology, but I didn't end up apologizing. I finally apologized for the words I almost buried.

"· · · · · · · Yes."

Instead of saying it's okay or saying it doesn't have to be, Jan nodded quietly and received a slightly late apology.

"Then tell me. I wonder why you want to see your mother, not your father."

"Yes."

Jan knows that she is a Kalian who is willing to worry without annoying Jan's meddling, who knows that she is stronger than I am, and who relies on her to protect her at all costs. I mean, I was hurt, but seeing Callian like that, I was healing a little bit by myself.

Instead of keeping the things that were already too late in my mind, Jan drank another cup of tea that had been washed away with an apple. Khalian nods, relieved to see Yan's complexion.

Soon, Kalian made an error in the form of two small swords. Yando is now a familiar sword, Sinistera. The voice of Kalian continues, holding it at your fingertips.

"Your sword is divided in two like this. He used a heavy sword like Demirea's, and split it with both hands."

"Yes, I remember."

"But if you hold it like this."

Soon, Kalian grabs the hilts of the two swords facing each other. Then, with the handle in the middle, you reach for the long, bladed weapon at your fingertips.

Khalian had already told me once that he had noticed the combination of swords. So I've already used the plants I fought with in front of Hina.

"A spear."

"It's a lot different than a real spear. It's closer to the spear than the sword. But I'm not so keen on weapons, not swords. Especially with a weapon this long."

"Oh, is that why you're going to see your mother?"

"Right. Haven't really shown Evan how to use a sword like this. I think it might be helpful to learn. This sword is too bad to leave it alone."

Plants is smart.

You may laugh at who in the world learns to use weapons with their heads, but Plants can. With that good head, it would be impossible to awaken the error and pay for the sword, but there could be no one better at learning and combining new things.

"Oh, so you're going to learn from the Siegfried people how to develop their swordsmanship."

"Yes. So I'm very careful, but I'd like to meet him and talk to him."

"I understand."

Yan still replied with a clear understanding.

"Don't help me, it's my mother's choice anyway. It doesn't matter to me, and it doesn't matter to Demirea, and it doesn't matter to my father, so talk to me."

"Yes, thank you."

Thank you for continuing like a habit.

"Yes, I'll let you know when the date is set."

"Yes, I understand."

Jan nods, smiling.

"Yes."

I think it's better to be thankful than sorry.

* * *

Taking care of it all of a sudden.

Doing a lot of work, eating a lot of meat. And one more thing.

Stuck in a bathtub made of black onics, continuing the tail of thought.

- Knock, knock, knock.

I tapped the edge of the bathtub like a habit. And I looked out a thick window that was full of one side of the bathroom.

A window made of special glass that cannot be seen from the inside. Beyond that, I saw the night sky. The thin moon and many stars appear at once, as if the moonlight had shrunk like a petal. If it were normal, I would not have been busy looking at the beautiful sky while continuing to think differently, but today was a little different.

"Why can't I remember?"

It was because of the conversation with Jan during the day.

What Kalian remembers, the old Kalian said in his mouth, is unbelievable. I can't remember when and why I did it. It was so weird that I was trying to remember.

"I don't think it was Serenty."

If Serenti purposely erased the memory, she wouldn't even notice the memory was gone. Serenty didn't do it because she knew the memory was erased.

- Knock.

I've never had an experience where I felt like I was' erased. '

Not Serenti.

It's not Serenti.

- Knock, knock.

Then only one.

"Kalyan."

There is no answer to return. Calls are in Calian's mouth.

"What · · · · · · · · Why did you hide it?"

The small voice eventually flows away along the drops of water at your fingertips. I fell like a scattered star.

* * *

The rain did not fall well and stopped.

In the rain, I came and left without a sound so that I didn't even know when I was here, the dawn palace drenched gently.

- Shhh!

A sharply stretched sword swoops across Calian's throat. There were several magic lanterns that illuminated the training ground instead of the sky, but no light was reflected on the blade that had just passed.

Without biting a step, Calian turns his shoulders away from the flying line attack. A bright light flashes on the second sword, looking for no rest, and it reflects for a moment.

A red sword cut in two.

Both swords drop without delay.

- Ka River!

Plants frowns as they quickly rotate their bodies instead of turning their swords.

- Tak!

Then I took a step backwards, shouting as if to listen. Low voices followed.

"Again. Why."

"What are you talking about?"

"Why do you think so much?"

Calian smiles.

One brief lapse in combat.

I stopped for a second and then I heard the footsteps.

Jando Jan recognizes the inside of Calian, but even Plants, who memorized Calian's actions, can no longer be deceived.

"Do you want to know why I think so much?"

"Or is there something else?"

"Senior. I don't think you know, but I actually have something called my privacy."

"Somewhere."

Calian looks back at you, his gaze stifling.

"· · · · · · · · No. Someday, somewhere. Maybe I did. Maybe I don't have one now. Nothing. Privacy."

Calian grumbles at the error, saying that he feels dissatisfied. I thought it would be difficult to fight anymore.

And then snap out of it.

A shimmering sword and a non-shimmering sword merge. Plants looks at Kalian with a thick blade of cinnamon tucked into his sword.

"Description."

All right, now.

Let's solve those two letters.

I don't really want to know if you have any privacy or not, and I was wondering what you were thinking, so I hung myself there until I got into the battle and almost cut my throat. That means explain it.

Of course, this is the interpretation of Kalian.

Eventually, he started speaking with a deep, deep sigh like Alan's favorite coffee, expressing his reluctance to talk.

"I had a memory erased."

"You mean Serenty."

"No, it's not like Serenti erased it."

"Of course."

"Before, the memories that I was curious about were mostly confused. But I don't think about it at all this time. Unlike things that are just dull or naturally forgotten, they feel stuck or wiped off. I mean, like I didn't leave that part behind on purpose, like I'm giving it back to me now."

"That's kind of the thing."

"Yesterday, I knew what I shouldn't have said to Jan. Memories associated with it."

"What."

Oh, really.

Persistent.

"· · · · · · Just. That's a bad word. That's a bad word. I don't remember why I said that. I don't know what made it sound so out of my mind. I remember exactly why I said that, but I can't think of any reason."

"You said that to your fancy acolyte. Then you know."

"Yes. So I asked Jan."

After a long stretch of horse tail, Kalian opens his mouth again. After closing it up again, a long time later, I made a loud voice.

"You'll regret it if you hear more."

"Half past."

"Stop listening. You will regret this."

It wasn't curious enough to bite the horse. Plants nods at Calian. It was filled with the meaning of telling me not to draw any more.

Calian sighs once more, nodding.

"I told Randall I was wondering if his morning car kept going. So Jan asked him why he was asking about it. And he said," Stay out of this. "Me, to Jan."

Callian looks at Plants' face. Then I opened my lips a few more times and split my voice.

"I don't think I had the right idea. It's an idea with no evidence, no grounds."

"· · · · · · Stop fighting."

You'll listen when you say you regret it.

Conversely, this time Plants has called for the end of the conversation.

He squeezes his strength into Sinistera's sword and takes a step out of the training ground.

- Peppermint.

Kalian's feet move a little faster.

Kalyan stands in the way of Plants trying to get out. Then I looked at Plants again.

"Sir, you said you needed an apology from Brother Randall. You said you weren't going to finish telling me what you were apologizing for."

"Stop it. I told you."

"That, by any chance."

Finely energized neck, more open eyes than usual, very slightly paler hands. I saw it. Khalian, of Plants.

I saw Plants doing the same thing as the people who were trying to hide it. And Kalian wasn't the one to miss it.

"You should be apologized to Randall."

"No."

Plants' eyes sank, not explaining what it was not.

Deep.

Reminding me of a memory that I couldn't stand being curious once.

- I don't think it was just Kalian.

- What was that all of a sudden?

- He drank the same tea every morning.

They say strawberries that they didn't like very much are delicious.

I said I would eat a morning tea that I didn't like very much.

Same car every day, same car every day.

- So I'm guessing it wasn't just Kalian. She's not the kind of person who would cover that up.

- Say what you have to say.

- Poison tea. You knew that. Didn't you receive it too? But you could only cure yourself.

- Why do you want to know? Your mother is no longer poisoned.

- · · · · · · · You knew.

I never thought I'd do the same to my youngest.

- Why · · · · · · · · · hid? When you knew where the same car was going, why didn't you tell us?

- I didn't know, didn't I? Do they resemble your mother, even though you close your ears and keep your mouth open?

- Same car. You should have thought there was someone drinking the same tea. You should have told the king.

White roses.

The white rose tree is already poisoned.

I should have told you.

To keep the poison from getting to the vine, the rose tree should have been informed of the spermine poison.

- If I told you. Has anything changed? I thought the king would step forward. I never thought your mother would back off.

I didn't know.

Poison to the vines. I didn't know.

I didn't know.

"About wanting an apology. Is this about me?"

"Not relevant."

Is it really the Rose Tree's fault that I was poisoned?

It's true that I didn't reveal what I was poisoned with.

- It's all been taken care of. So don't make a fuss. Nothing's gonna change anyway.

Plants did not answer.

Kalian smiles bitterly.

"· · · · · · · Lies."

I don't know the answer.
