71 < Chapter 15. Let me ask you a question (2) >

A few more days passed.

The greenhouse in Silica, which was always filled with green leafy Renee pots, was completely empty. The day I met with Callian and exchanged the seal of oath, I broke all of Silica's fury.

Since then, silica has not left the room until a few days ago. So I cleaned up the greenhouse in Silica and spent months unfilled.

Silica was moving slowly in the reception room in the middle of the greenhouse. It seemed to be cold every step of the way, so the maids could not even go near it.

Again.

Glug glug.

Again.

Glug glug.

Silica, who was standing around in the greenhouse folding and extending the debt in her hand, stopped and bit her lips deeply.

Grey Brissen is not coming.

It was clear that we were close to the capital. Since then, news has dropped suddenly.

Lennon's sudden disappearance was unknown, but he did not doubt the possibility itself. He was an ordinary man, so it was not impossible for him to be kidnapped or murdered for any reason.

But Grey can't do that.

Now, Silica wasn't worried about what happened to Grey. I was wondering what other minds Grey had in mind.

The bridegroom came running to Silica and said a few words.

"Earl Evan Bricen's messengers attacked when the Grey Bricen Change Bag arrived near the capital. The news is spreading that the change bag was heavily injured and returned to the Change White House."

Silica, who heard it, frowned and asked.

"My father? Why?"

"It · · · · · · · · · · ·. I understand you want to take the title, so I've been warned never to return to Cairosis again. The nobles are very noisy about him right now."

The nobles' mouths were really quick.

Rumors of Grey returning to the capital and being attacked by Evan also spread in an instant.

He would, too. Grey was a sorcerer.

Since such a man was badly injured by his father, what could be more interesting news than this?

Silica frowned.

After unfolding the debt in your hand several times and folding it over, Silica's soliloquy spills out.

"I thought I was going to take the baron's place, so I sent him ahead. At this point."

Then, as if there was something strange, Silica asked again to the bridegroom.

"My father didn't go himself. Who could hurt the change bag?"

"The change bag was already injured and on its way to the capital. They said they didn't respond properly."

Silica's eyes flashed with the answer.

Silica bites her lip again and opens her mouth.

"No."

Grey was not injured.

When I came to Cairysis, it was Silica who made me make excuses. After that, he said that if he helped put the plant on top of Cesar, he would expel the late Evan Brissen and seat Grey there.

- Glug!

Silica came up with some assumptions in her head.

Evan Brissen stepped forward and attacked Grey's plan.

Grey betrays Silica and leaves with an excuse.

Otherwise, an undisclosed assault on Grey.

Immediately, Silica looked at the bridegroom with her sharp eyes.

"Send the cure to Brighten the White. Check and come back to see if the change bag is really injured and who attacked it. You should look at it with your own eyes as soon as possible."

The bridegroom leaned at her waist and said that she would do it.

"And find Lord Tail and bring him to me immediately."

Tail was deputy commander Pavel of the Knights who left the palace because of the Kalian. He used to wield his sword many times on behalf of Silica. I did everything I could for the money, so there was no one better to serve as a pawn for Grey in a hurry.

After the bridegroom left in a hurry, Silica wandered around the greenhouse again.

Silica was about to check all three of her assumptions. The first and second will be confirmed by the maid who met Grey. And the third one I was going to check through the tail.

Imagine that you are someone who is invisible.

"Why do you keep saying that?"

Callian.

"· · · · · · · Reminds me of you."

- Glug!

Silica goes back to her room, trying to shake off her unpleasantness.

* * *

Le Maine made a major announcement that afternoon.

They were all ready to start a Wizard Legion named Balkan, and they said they would start running a fast a week later.

Alan Manasil, interim commander of the Balkans.

His deputy commander was Arsen Hertz.

That morning, Silica frowned at the news about Grey's face and frowned again.

"You want to use Pavel's building and training ground, you forgot all about the old days."

Once again, the Maid of Honor didn't know what to do. You hear a whistling sound in Silica's mouth.

"If I didn't lose my strength because of the Knight Pavel's disappearance. Where are the wizards?"

Silica, who said so, paused.

"No."

It is reminded that it is not a good time to ask.

The story goes that Earl Brissen crippled his son. In this situation, if Silica opposed Remain's will, people's gaze would return to Silica.

"Thirty wizards you have gathered."

"Yes, it is."

Silica nods, laughing.

"Yes. There's nothing you can do about it. He says he wants to play in the army, but he has to show you around. I get it."

Silica said that and turned around. Then the servant grabbed her feet with caution again.

"I brought the one you mentioned."

Silica's face is slightly straightened when she hears that sound. Pavel's knight tail came. Silica soon nodded and went down to meet him.

Silica, who was bitten all around in front of the reception room, enters alone. There was a man sitting at the table in plain clothes. It was that article called Tail.

Tail was a typical knight with a look like this. Moreover, there were fewer and fewer actions. Because of this, those who have never seen the tail cannot imagine what it really looks like.

But Silicon Bay knew.

If only he had three gold coins in his hand, he would have killed anyone outside the palace and brought them here.

- Good luck.

That's why Silica handed him a pocket full of money in front of the tail sitting in the reception room. The tail that checked the contents asked.

"Are there many to deal with?"

I asked because I had a lot of money.

Silica shakes her head.

"One."

Tail smiles at that. It's because I had dealt with one not long ago and received a lot of money.

Lennon Brissen.

One of the two knights who captured him and brought him to the Marquis was the tail. Of course, the tail was a heavy knight, so Silica never knew it.

"Who are you?"

The one who carried out the Roselita of Kalian, did not stay in the royal palace, and was not a member of Alan Manasil's family.

Silica opens her mouth in a low voice.

"A wizard named Arsen Hertz."

The deputy commander of Balkan, who worked hard with Grey on the mouths of the aristocratic nobles today. I also heard the name Tail.

"If you come across Grey Brissen, you can find out what happened. Once you find out, you'll have to keep his mouth shut. Take care of it, and I'll give you double that."

The tail that realized why the money pocket was heavy stood up quietly. Then I put my pocket in my arms and left the reception room of Silica.

And that evening.

Jan was very excited.

"Our prince finally has power."

Of course, there was no mention of Calian anywhere related to the Balkans. However, Jan knew that the Wizard Balkans were Calian's army.

"It's only thirty, but it's going to be huge soon. So the prince can move on with his life now, right?"

At Jan's words, Kyrie, who was standing next to Jan and waiting for Kalian to come out of the shower, carefully replied.

"· · · · · · I'm not sure it's okay to be more justified than it is right now."

The sincere words opened Jan's eyes wide.

"You've been beaten up by Prince Plants or Randall. Especially if you knew how bad Plants was doing to our prince."

Jan is really surprised to find out that Khalian is working with the Plants in half. Because of this, Khalian heard Yan's words in the shower for a moment.

I have to tell her about my work with Plants, but I'm worried about how she might react.

After taking a shower with such complexity, Kalian put on a simple uniform. Then I moved to the banquet hall at the Senate. It was not yet officially founded by Balkans, but to attend a light dinner commemorating Remain's announcement of the Choir.

Shortly after, Calian stopped for a moment because of his more focused gaze.

"Prince Kalian is here!"

They were wizards from all over the country, and not many people have seen Khalian this close. So they all began to study Calian with one mind.

- I wonder if those eyes are as red as the Sispanians.

Thanks to this, Kalian had to greet all the wizards face to face.

'How fortunate that Randall and Plants didn't come.'

Of course it was silica, and both of them reported their discontinuation for good reason. It was a good thing I didn't have to show Callian this much attention.

Arsenal approaches Kalian one last time, thinking about it and disappearing alone. He was quite tired. Because of this, Kalian said with his regrets.

"Sir Hertz. Are you okay?"

"I don't think I'll be okay soon, Prince."

Calian opens his mouth, smiling at an honest answer.

"There will be a banquet on the day of the founding ceremony, so just go and rest today."

Arsen's expression brightens a little. I wanted to go home, but I couldn't go.

"Thank you for your attention. But I have to go back to Manasil after dinner. Moreover, if you go home at will, you have no idea what General Manasil will say tomorrow."

Kalian smiles again, looking at that face.

"I'll tell my master what I said."

"But · · · · · · · · ·."

"Rest when you can."

Arsenal, who was genuinely grateful to Khalian, greeted him with a respectful greeting.

"Thank you. I'll leave first today, then."

"Be careful going in. Don't fall asleep on the way."

Callian smiles as if he didn't know the meaning.

Of course, Arsen didn't recognize it. I just took a quick step up to the wagon, feeling like Alan was coming after me.

Arsen's house had to cross the Senho River, so it took time to arrive. Callian said not to fall asleep, but it doesn't matter what the human eyelid looks like.

- Polygon.

Arsen closes his eyes as he listens to the footsteps of regular horses. And I fell into a deep sleep.

After crossing the Señor River.

Until the anxious shaking of the wagon and the wagon's urgent voice woke up Arsen.

"Hertz!"

The horse calls out to Arsen, who opened his eyes suddenly in a strange mood.

"Get up!"

Suddenly, Arsenal awakens in a hurry.

The wagon shakes violently with him.

- Bang!

Arsen's eyes, always calm, glow coldly.

Arsen opens the door to the runaway wagon.

A wagon that was several times faster than usual was in a frenzy. The unfamiliar landscape flashed past.

Instead of being embarrassed by this sudden situation, Arsen yells at the horseman, keeping his eyes on the right place.

"Keep running, keep running!"

And I was able to operate my magic quickly.

[Teleport]

At the same time, Arsen's body disappears from the wagon and appears exactly where he saw it a moment ago.

Arsen moves from a running wagon to the ground, immediately creating a shield to protect his body. Then several horses, which seem to have followed the wagon, surround Arsen.

All the moonlit blades were pointing towards Arsenal.

After realizing the suspicious situation, Arsen opens his mouth in a calm voice.

"Nice to meet you."

The twenty-eight five circle master wizards have studied only fast and efficient man-in-arms, thus creating ice windows at speeds faster than lightning.

"Deputy commander of the Valkan Wizards. Arsen Hertz."

The ice in Arsenal Hertz flashes out of the sky with a shimmering glow.
