344 < Chapter 61. Wishes (5) >

I did not cry anymore after 'Peep Peep Peep'.

- Quack, quack!

The ducks are all grown up now.

His beak is big, his feet are big, and now he flies quite far.

Coco still followed his mother and father well even after all the duckling days. Some people who appeared often, including Hina, followed me, and when I saw curious Lucy and Anne, I became very close to them after growing up as if I had forgotten that I was busy running away.

Today, I came to the most beautiful garden of water in the royal palace of Cechrytia, instead of a cozy pool that always boasts the right temperature, no matter the season my father made. My blue-haired mother, who brought Coco to the Royal Garden, came with me again, no matter when Devilan was around.

Coco's mom opened her mouth when she sat down and watched Coco as she finished her life's work and built her own children's farming so that she no longer had to be greedy about the world life.

"I'll get my paycheck back when I get back, Chairman."

Coco's father, Uriah, was sitting in the garden of the sunny water at noon.

"Not much."

"Shouldn't you congratulate me first before asking for money?"

"Yeah. It was too long without pay to start celebrating with."

Just as Uriah, who believed so, did not expect to answer, Arsen made a grim face.

"It's enough to feed Coco. I keep getting allowances."

"Not much."

"Chairman of the Association, money is not that important to people living with that good work. Besides, since we decided not to reduce the amount of money the prince had originally received, the pouch will become thicker as a result. That's all that matters."

"Looks like you're getting paid enough as it is."

"Chairman, did you hear me?"

"I heard. I'll answer. You're not answering. So, what, did you go back to Florin?"

"First Florin, you're so mean. That's all I look like to you, Mr. Chairman."

"Yeah. That's what it looks like."

"That's a little harsh. My prince will not be as determined as the Chairman of the Bern Association who scolds him."

"You're in trouble. I told you to drink water, and you drank jerky."

"I thought you only drank jerky because I told you to drink water."

"What are you talking about?"

After resting and getting up, Hina goes to see Kalian. Then Calian noticeably improved in color in one day. Maybe Hina's been through too much already to be happy about it. You grab Calian's wrist and examine his insides. On the contrary, I immediately realized that the boat that needs to be empty is really breathtaking.

Hina smiles out.

And then...

'I am the Three Princes who secretly ate jerky.'

I brought a piece of paper. "Of course I do.

'I am the prince who secretly gave jerky to his brother as a healer.'

There was.

'This is the knight who delivered the jerky.'

There was a piece of paper that said, They are more unwilling to listen than Lucy and Anne, so it is Hina's gift with a strong will to treat her about herself like two cats around her neck.

Alan has made it very difficult to ask you to stay for an hour in the middle of the royal garden of Cecritia.

"The prince was wrong not to listen to the healer. So, what's your salary?"

He saved the day before Callian died in Cecretia, and he was recognized for his help. That's why I got my salary back. To be precise, I was forgiven for what I faced one day after being trampled by Alan in front of the Wilhelm Coffin.

He said it was because he liked getting his salary back, but the amount of the salary made him leak out and he couldn't find it. Even as I tried to change my words, I went back to the barrage of sin.

"Kid, it's not because you blew up the Haycia Palace that your salary dropped."

"That's right, Chairman. I'm the wizard who blew up the Heitian palace."

"Proud."

"I'm proud of you. You'll never see a wizard on the continent."

"I'm not saying I can't, I'm saying I can't."

"They're not wizards."

"Yes. Whatever you want. You said your salary was reduced until you rebuilt the Haycia Palace. That's a long way to go to be rebuilt."

"Yes, that's right."

The Haycia Palace began to be built next to the Arfia Palace.

Remain and Allen decided to seize Arsen's salary until the palace was rebuilt. And the palace is still a long way from rebuilding. It is said that there may be no place for the next monarch of Remain to stay. When Plants leaves the palace, it's hard to conquer whether or not the Grand Chamberlain of Brissen is finished.

So, no one can be sure when Arsen's salary will be back.

"Still, it's important that you get it, Chairman."

"That's right, you get a florin."

"No, I'm not."

"Of course."

"I've done a lot in Sacritia, so now I get three florins."

"· · · · · · · · Proud."

That's less than half the healer's salary. Plants, the same deputy commander, receives a substantial amount, though not as much as a healer. I'm proud to say that Euria's reaction must have been cold since it was clearly less than Lucy's and Anne's or Raven's care costs before comparing it to the healthcare paycheck.

"But you still don't get your allowance."

"Why are you suddenly talking about salary?"

I smile at the salaried blue-haired crazy wizard after receiving only 3 princes' allowance without pay. Arsenal smiles at Euria and gives a beautiful voice.

"It doesn't matter how long it took. Anyway, I'm a paid wizard now, Mr. Association."

"So, what."

"Besides the money for Coco Moi, I also make money for flowers that are not boring."

"You didn't buy the boring flowers, kid. You made them."

"There are many flowers that are not worn out, other than ice flowers. No matter what flower, I can get it somehow and buy it all."

Uriah, who has a reasonable sense of what the little bird is saying, smiles bloody.

"Instead, you freeze the fries."

"I won't freeze you anymore."

Only up to three beers.

Uriah, who looked at Arsenal with three fingers outstretched and resolute, sadly shook her head.

"No."

The face that was not greedy for the life of the world suddenly changed like that of the person who lost the world. A gloomy voice pops out.

"Why not?"

"I'm busy."

"What are you so busy with?"

"I'm going to get Adelia. So I'm busy."

He was the head of the Wizard's Association, the principal of the Magic School, and the boss of the Information Organization had to go back and hand over the information to Eila. Plus, I didn't have time to get flowers from a blue-haired kid to catch Adelia with one or two more circles.

Uriah looks at Arsen and says,

Even if the world were to collapse right now, I would look at your face more joyfully than mine.

"So when you drink four beers and don't freeze the fries, Don't even think about buying flowers."

and said,

"Chairman of the Association."

Arsen's face blossoms as he chews on Uriah's words.

"Can I tell you then?"

"Yes."

"Really, Mr. Association?"

"I'm telling you."

Arsen nods, returning to the face of the dying world. Then, by tomorrow, he looked like he was going to catch the Demon King.

"Then I'll tell you again after I expand my circles."

"Oh, yeah."

"You can't say anything else after stretching it out."

"I knew it."

"You promised, Chairman."

"Yes."

After that, Uriah smiled, slightly folding her worries about increasing one circle tomorrow.

- Quack, quack!

Spring came.

"Until then, I won't receive any other boring flowers."

Like Coco's yellow beak, stirring the garden of water with excitement, a beautiful spring has come.

* * *

I try to run away, but it catches up.

The more you try to get rid of it, the more you stick with it.

Time is usually the case. The more you try to run away and get rid of it, the faster it will flow, and eventually it will lead to me.

I looked at the sea and faced Cinnastar, feeling so deep that I couldn't feel the salt, and I met Serenti. In fact, I've been through a lot and I grew up in it again. Meanwhile, autumn came late, winter came and spring came. Flowers bloom as the winds of the leaves subside. Time has passed.

I went into a nightmare and woke up from a nightmare.

I met Arniesel and Danu.

Time has passed.

While Hina was scolded, sitting across from Alan, briefly giving Jan the harmonica and the sword again.

After five days of unfortunate transformation,

- Pumpkin.

- Jubbuck Jubbuck.

The path to a small banquet hall in Cecretia.

Different steps sound side-by-side in the hallway.

It was the footsteps of Prince Cairys, who was well traveled without a guide in a foreign palace, and Prince Cairys, who had become more accustomed to following his brother than a guide before.

"I'm leaving today."

"Yes, today."

I finished breakfast with Chase, Arianne and Louis before I went to Cairys. Chase then heads to the Oval Office for a moment to take care of the urgent matter, and Arianne and Hina follow Luis. The cure for the poison was over, but I wanted to see if there were any more sick spots.

Thanks to this, Plants was on his way to his room to speak first about Cairis' schedule. Otherwise, it was because of Kalian's face, who didn't seem to say a word from the end of his meal until he returned to Cairis.

"Are you saying you want to go to the ducal palace as soon as you return?"

"Well, if you're not already divorced, I'll let you in."

"I don't think the king will let me out. For now."

"You're the one who won't let me out. I am."

Upon arriving in Cairys, Plants smiles as he sees his younger brother fleeing.

"Why the ducal palace."

"I need to see Siona and ask her a question. It's not urgent, it's just... I'm just going to go."

Of course, Calian was answering with a familiar face. And Plants knew that such a Khalian could not be harmed. However, I didn't bring out too much worries because I didn't want to. He didn't want that.

"You'll be busy when you get back. We need to get you to Wilhelm's coffin right away."

"No."

So Plants paused and came up with a pretty good answer. I mean, not a brother who needs to break up right now, but an answer that will change his mind to another brother who needs to meet right now.

"Fifth floor. I'm going."

"Ah."

"You're going to be sick."

"· · · · · · · ·"

"Soldier's Note."

"Yes."

"You have to."

"Yes, absolutely. Have a nice day."

"Got it."

It didn't go down as planned.

So it's clear that there won't be any Randall among the Cairys' group. Whether she has a cold or pretended to have a cold or has a lot of sunshine, whatever it is that's causing her headache, Randall must be sick. So he said he would come to see me as a soldier. The prince of the realm, to the prince of the realm.

To say hello.

Are you serious or are you telling me to smile?

After all, Calian bursts out a small smile to see if the answer was quite good. It looked like a Renieri, but it wasn't just like a Renieri.

"I don't know what to ask a chicken eating elf."

"I have a favor to ask you and a personal question."

Plants takes a slow step toward Calian. If there's something I need to check with Siona, it's because Bricen is involved and she has no intention of stopping her eyes and ears from knowing the truth.

"I don't know if it has anything to do with Brysen. I was wondering why your mother came into the palace."

"Do you think it's because of Brissen?"

"Yes, we need to meet Siona to know exactly, but I think it's probably because of Brycen. That's what I think when I come into the palace."

"I came straight into the palace."

"Yes. To find out why Whitlin disappeared, or... I feel like I came in for a reason, for revenge."

In fact, Freya soon after Queen Aisha's death entered the palace.

"· · · · · · · I heard that the King was fond of you. Maybe Queen Freya wasn't on her side."

"I'm so sorry to hear that. It wouldn't have been so hard if Mother had just decided."

It's a waste to say more about beauty. Beautiful, too, but that's what Siona said. He has the same personality as Calian. If you say so.

"Honestly, I don't think anyone can get over it if they want to."

"Peacock."

"Ah."

Yeah, right.

"Except my fiancée."

Plants grins.

Whether Freya cheated Remain or not, Plants doesn't care. Marriage of royalty is based on what we want.

"Anyway, if you went to the palace for something else, your mother might have told Siona something. That's what I thought."

"Yes."

The long footsteps echo the hallway again.

Plants has been silently moving his feet beside Calian for some time.

"When are you going to the ducal palace?"

"The king will probably want to have dinner, and then he'll come back. Before that, I think I should stop by Wilhelm's coffin."

"Come with me."

"Somewhere else."

"Duke."

They're following us again.

Peas that have been following the Degulgul all the way to Cecretia will not go to Wilhelm's coffin and follow the duc.

"It's not just Demirea and Siona there."

"I'm going because I know."

"Sir, I don't think you're okay."

"Me."

He wants to go.

Calian nods quickly, as you can almost tell. It's because I always feel the look down on Plants, but don't want to get used to it.

"Because they look alike. I'm curious."

A child who looks similar and resembles a smart one.

A child who looks a lot like Plants but will now grow up in an environment that is very different from Plants. I was curious and said I wanted to go.

Kalyan looks at Plants without answering for a while.

"Well, let's run away together, then."

At least we won't let Remain out for a while. Running away with peas like I'm curious about my blood is the best way to go.

"Got it."

Plants nods as he follows his brother on the run.

I don't know what to do when I go back, or when to give Eila a new daughter, or when to let Kyrie and Siona meet. I thought about those things. I talked about Prince Tensyl and Danu and the Elves.

That's how time passed again.

* * *

A lot of ripe tangerines.

Chase listened well to Hina saying that eating a lot of cinnamon tangerines is bad. He turned all of the cinnamon tangerines into yellow tangerines. Calian stopped trying to wrap a fresh cod and a cave. Instead, he told me to come and eat it the next time. Chase bites back on his many gifts because he liked hearing them better.

"Be careful."

I greeted Arianne, holding her hand as she smiled. The next time I came, I thought I'd tell you to bring your fiancée, but you didn't. Instead,

"You have to take good care of me when I go. I'm lonely by myself."

I said I would come myself.

"Why are you here?"

"Can't I go?"

"No, I don't think so."

"Congratulations. It's my new friend's father's birthday."

He said he will come as the representative of Cecretia on Remain's Birthday.

Of course, the new friend did not refer to Khalian. I'm talking about Plants. I've become friends with Plants since I've become very close to him. Whether Plants was thinking the same thing, it was necessary to hear Plants' opinions.

In addition, I knew that I was going to celebrate Remain's birthday, and that I was going to meet Uriah, Rachel, and Eila who had become very close to each other, but Calian replied with a joyful face.

"Okay. I'll be waiting."

After placing Arianne's nodding hand, you take another step to the side. Louise, who doesn't cough anymore, reaches out her arms with a smile on her face. With a small smile, Kalian holds Louise in his arms, not refusing.

"Be well."

"Yes, I will."

Louise holds Callian in her arms. As if trying to convey an unforgettable warmth, Luis wipes Calian's back for a long time.

"It may be difficult, but come back often. It's always good."

"Yes. I'll come often."

Callian nods, face buried in Louis' shoulder.

"Dear Mother · · · · · · Anytime."

Louis' hand, which paused for a moment, sweeps his son back down again. As much as I'm concerned, and as much as I wish for future peace.

"Yes. Anytime."

I slipped out of Louise's arms quietly.

I bit one foot back.

You wave to Arianne.

You bow before Tailan.

But I didn't see Chase.

I haven't looked away for a while. I couldn't say anything. Like Chase did, so did Callian.

I couldn't say goodbye. I couldn't say good-bye.

I couldn't say goodbye. I couldn't say goodbye.

"· · · · · · · Yes."

"Yes."

I just shared a greeting that contained nothing.

There's still a lot left to say, so we'll just have to do it again somehow. Anytime, anywhere, anytime. You don't have to say goodbye anymore.

After a while, Calian looks down with a smile and bites one more step backwards. And I embraced Alan's warm light.

- Shit!

A greeting pops from Alan's hand.

The light reaches out, filling your body in the light and closing your eyes.

I'm going back.

Where spring comes.

Now to me, Cairys.
