44 < Chapter 10. You've come too far (3) >

Kalyan looks at Hale's face and frowns as well.

"The Earl doesn't look so good."

Hale quickly gives you an impression of worrying that he might be known to have sold the information to the blue seagull. Then I quickly started rolling my head.

'No. If one of them gets caught, isn't he the famous Cecrethian? I'll kill you the moment I get caught.'

Hale reapplies his mouth with honey, looking for relief.

"No. My anger is deeply against the man who attacked the prince. So starting today, this Hale is also going to be leading the charge. It happened on my territory, didn't it?"

You show her face for a moment that you don't like her anywhere. Hale laughs at Calian for a moment, convinced that he has something to hide.

'You were trying to impress me. Anyway, the arrogant one.'

Calian nods slowly, knowing if you know what you're thinking.

"I understand."

After a short answer, Kalian continued to eat without another word. Then Yuan came quietly to the restaurant and returned with a message to Yan. Jan approaches Khalian and leans back to tell him what the egg just said. One of Calian's eyebrows rises from the story.

Soon, Khalian's eyes turn to Hale. Hale has been focusing on Khalian since the moment the egg came in, so Khalian doesn't need to call her right away.

"The guy named Norton. He said he had something to tell me himself."

The electrolytes told the story, and immediately Calian got up from his seat by removing the napkin. Hale had to get up because he hadn't eaten properly yet. As soon as Hale wakes up, Calian asks.

"I'm going to go. Are you coming with me?"

"You mean the prince himself is going to prison?"

Callian looks at Hale for a while. Then I asked again in a quiet voice.

"That's right."

"Isn't that where the prisoners are?"

"Of course I do. Prison. Prison."

"No, that's not what I mean."

How can you say you want to take yourself to that filthy place with the prisoners? I'll go alone if I have to!

Hale presses down on the words that are about to pop out of his mouth.

"Why don't you bring in a man named Norton and meet him?"

"You can bring her and meet her, and I can go and meet her. There's something I don't want to do."

"· · · · · · · · No, Prince."

After all, he looks like a prisoner going to prison and follows behind Calian.

The dungeon was once curious about childhood Hale. Then, after seeing the piles of bloodstained prisoners swarming under the crumbs and straw on the ground, he did not walk again.

After a long time of discovery, Hale wraps his nose around it. It was due to the unpleasant smell that became dark because the rain was particularly rainy. Hale walks in front of Norton, thinking it's a good thing he hasn't had much breakfast.

Norton sits with the same look on his face as he showed Kalian the other day. Malcolm, the Chamberlain, steps forward as he sees Khalian and Hale coming in without a reaction.

"What are you doing up without showing examples?"

That's what Norton said, staring at Malcolm.

"I'm counting on you to die a day in the morning because of my damn identity. Do I have to have it now?"

If it had been the same commoner instead of the prince, this wouldn't have happened. Hale wanted to snap this rascal's head right away. But I had to keep him alive to catch the one who did something worse. Norton would know that, too, and that would be how he bragged.

Hail looks at Calian for a moment, but she's not particularly unpleasant. So how could Hale be more angry in front of him? Only when the fever rises do I hold it in my heart to make a solemn promise that I will never let him die smoothly.

After a few moments of such triviality, Norton turns to Calian.

"I was told to come back with something."

Kalyan nods lightly.

"Tell me."

Norton looks at Hale and Malcolm for a moment. After that, I looked at the knights, and at the prison walls and the fist-like windows for a moment. So he looks around and opens his mouth slowly.

"The one called the Blue Soldier. It's Cecretia's tribute."

There was thunder outside.

Lightning strikes Hale in the head.

Of all the birds and birds in the world, why do they come out of their mouths?

Norton turns to look at Kalyan and Hale. Then you lower your voice as if you were telling a very big secret and open your mouth again.

"I said I was going to sell something to someone here. Said she'd been with a kite for a long time."

Norton laughs in circles.

It was a shame to see Hale's face. If it weren't for today, Norton wouldn't stop talking, wanting to try to push the one who would become an Earl into the corner.

"But isn't that a little strange? I can't believe you've been making kites with him for so long. What do you have in common with a kite?"

That's it.

Norton did what Kalian had asked him to do the night before.

- Just confess a few more things. Like I said.

- You want me to lie?

- It's not a lie. I'm just borrowing your mouth.

- The man who took your arm won't take your mouth. Yes, ma'am.

Callian recalls a conversation he had with Norton the other night, looking at Hale with clear eyes.

"Outside the mill. I don't think so."

Then he asked with a curious face how Hale reacted.

"Isn't that right, Earl Latran?"

Hale nods, hoping to hear a creaking sound. Callian asks for Norton.

"You've never heard of him?"

"I think I've heard of it. I don't remember."

"It will soon be escorted to Cairosis. Be sure to think of that name before you arrive. It won't be bad for you if it helps."

"I see."

After realizing that Khalian wasn't just a place to think about himself, Hale looked around without my knowledge. The smell, the unpleasant smell, stirs my mind. It looks like a swarm of zebras crawling around underneath the straw. I felt the blood on my arms and legs. I imagined myself trapped in this prison endlessly.

I felt anxious that Remain might cut Hale's throat, even if it is a plain testimony, if it is not bad luck.

Hale hurries back to his room, his head hurrying. I had to ask Earl Brissen for help. Do it now!

Calian mutters quietly as he looks back at Hale.

"Hurry up and move quickly."

So get me some real proof.

* * *

After a brief visit from the prison, Kalian enters his room, and there are two guests where no one should be. It was Shia and Hina.

Xiaa stares at the fat Khalian, and Hina ducks at her waist in shock. Seeing what he was doing, he seemed to be doing a new tour instead of cleaning.

"Hina came to clean up. I followed you. There's a bird here. Hina told me not to come."

He said with a strange look on his face. Of course, Xia's answer came first.

"I know. I told you not to yell at Hina."

"I didn't want to ask you why you're here."

I needed Arsen, the conversationalist, but he wasn't there.

I didn't have enough to go around and catch birds, so I couldn't sleep much while I was guarding Shea all night.

The Blue Soldier says he will remove his hand from Xia, but Khalian cannot drive her out that way. Therefore, it was implicitly concluded that we were accompanying them, even if not in front of the Hirika Forest.

I wonder if I'll get used to this conversation by the time I break up with Shia. Kalian is missing. I don't think so.

Then Calian looked at Asia, thinking, "The Path of the Forest." He clearly said he couldn't keep up with the Elves fleeing the path of the forest.

She was fortunate enough to reach the 'forest' and replied on her own.

"Yes. The way of the forest, I know a little bit. Faster than the Humans."

Calian's face turns pale. I was wondering if I could make it to Siegfried territory quickly. But she said it first.

"Mother's trees don't open the forest for humans. That's why Humans can't go."

It's lethal.

Kalian tried his best to talk Remain out of letting the Elves use the Royal Road.

At that moment, Hina looked at him. Thanks to its very strange and curious ability, Xia responded to Hina's words without having to look at Suir.

"Got it."

Then he looks at Calian and says,

"He's sorry. He wants out. He said he'd come back when he's not in charge."

It translated Hina's words.

After saying that, Asia, who was no longer interested in Calian's room, went out first.

And Hina hurriedly packed her cleaning supplies. Meanwhile, my eyes were closing in on the cage. I laughed at Calian's face when he saw it. I feel like I'm all dried up because I was in the castle basement a while ago.

Of course, Hina was a hundred times older than Khalian, but I could sympathize with Jan's words that she would do well with a sister like that.

Soon, Kalian told Hina.

"Bird, you have to let me go tonight."

Hina nods instead of making a disappointing face. Kalian opens his mouth again.

"Go back to the palace and I'll buy you another bird."

Hina's eyes widen and she quickly shakes her head. A cage in a maid's room. Merlin will be uncomfortable staying with you.

Callian looks out the window for a moment.

It rained a lot, but I couldn't tell what time it was by the sky color alone. Callian, who was standing silently for a while, points out the window.

"When I get to the dinner, open the cage door. Windows, too."

Hina nods as if to understand.

Remain seems to welcome his visit for the first time, and Alan thinks so. Since we told Kalian last night that we would tell him the right story today, he will get up from there as if he had waited like that.

Wouldn't it be better to deliver the news as soon as we've waited?

That's why Alan got to the point again.

"Which one of you is more guilty of selling Cairis information to other countries or of being involved with the hordes that attacked Prince?"

Remain nods without a word.

Remain called the Knight Leader of Caera before he could even fathom what that means.

"Are you sending the Knights to Latran, too?"

"I see."

Alan hurriedly detached Remain from his emotionally unavailable behavior.

"If the foot of the Kingsguard is that light, it's not good for the prince. You know, Caera is supposed to be by your side, so you should call the other Knights."

Le Maine's eyes twitch.

Alan explained that it is a felony to stand up in the royal court and condemn. So it was no wonder we sent the Royal Knights. Moreover, there was a clear reason for trying to send Kaerra.

"You want me to send the boy to where the rebels are gathering, even to the sword of Bricen?"

I thought there was no way the Knights of Bricen could help Calian there alone. Allen relaxed to hear Remain like that.

"One of the traitors betrayed Bryson, so I'm sure he'll be fine with this."

Alan told me who they were and what they were guilty of. Then Remain sighs deeply and replies.

"I didn't know Earl Latran spoke so well. Besides, it's Cecretia's tribute. How the hell did he get involved with those brutes?"

"That's how it happened."

Alan replies with a clear face.

I didn't have anything to explain, because it was true. Remain opens his mouth with a clasp.

"I'll send the Knights Karen."

"You'd better do that. And could you please send someone to Earl Latran's mansion?"

It was very unlikely, but the only evidence of this could be in the mansion of Cairosis.

Remain nods, already thinking of doing so.

"I will."

"Thank you."

Alan looks at the lemon tea on the table. Even in the hot summer, Remain enjoys a hot tea, and Allen shakes his head as he sees it steaming in the car. Then I tapped the cup with my fingertips.

The steam that was rising was fading and there was flesh and ice.

We've already forgotten about the cold and the heat, but we still have to drink something cool in summer, don't we?

Alan, who drank the cold lemon tea with a satisfactory face, said.

"I have one more favor to ask you. I have somewhere I need to be today."

Remain stares at Alan.

Alan's expression changed very gently.

"Even if my steps are a little noisy."

Remain nods. Somehow there was a smile on his face.
