learned swimming.

You may wonder why a prince of a country would learn something like that while swimming in the teeming sea, but unbelievably, he learned it because it actually happened.

‘What were you thinking when you jumped into the sea? ‘Aren’t you scared?’

‘I was scared.’

‘Look at that. The sea is a really scary place. Even if the big prince stayed, I would have saved the little prince safely...’

‘I wasn’t afraid of the sea at all, Lord Castrin.’

As soon as I shook off the cold and woke up, I went to Teilan and begged him to teach me how to swim. Every day, I asked him to go back into the still cold sea and teach me how to open my eyes, how to float, how to move and breathe.

‘Then what were you afraid of?’

Because my cold got worse, I said I had passed the life-or-death crisis, but I couldn’t remember it properly, so I wasn’t the least bit worried about catching a cold again. I wasn’t scared at all of the never-ending deep water or the waves that seemed to swallow anything.

‘I’m afraid I’ll lose my grip. I’m afraid I’ll lose my little brother forever. I was scared of that.’

Because I learned that there are truly scary things.

Because I never wanted to go through the same thing again.

– Jump and jump.

As I was sending Arianne away and heading towards the place where the biggest person in the palace would be, I suddenly felt a chill. The day was so clear and hot that I got goosebumps because I felt lost and submerged in the deep, dark sea.

Of course, the events of that day were not what Chase experienced today. But to Chase, it didn’t matter when it happened. Chase at that time was Verne’s older brother, and Chase is now.

‘don’t do it. forever.’

I guess I happened to hear these words from him.

Chase was obviously Bern’s and Calian’s older brother. That one thing was the most important.

– Sweet.

Devlan’s huge office was grim and cold.

In Chase’s memories, it was always a small, warm place that was noisy, full of laughter, and where Kyrie would come in with her head down, but not now.

“I think my cold is getting better.”

It was my first time meeting Devlan without any special purpose. It was the first time that Devlan’s health was mentioned. Despite this, Devlan didn’t say anything else. I didn’t ask what happened or wonder why I came here like this.

“I sent you medicine that was supposed to be good for colds, but I heard you rejected it.”

“I sent him back because there was no need to use medicine. It will get better this way, so don’t worry too much.”

Devlan wasn’t sure what was in the medicine his only son was giving him.

Or maybe he refused Chase’s medicine because he was so sure of it. A doubt-filled conviction that it is not a medicine for recovery, but rather the opposite.

‘Can’t you trust and swallow the medicine your son sends you?’

My son doesn’t believe it.

It’s okay to entrust your life to the healers of the traitor’s veins, Tensil, who may suddenly turn and stab a sword in your heart.

Chase thought about this and lowered his head for a moment. No matter how funny it was, I wasn’t supposed to laugh, so I laughed quietly with a face that was enduring something difficult.

“Why are you paying so much attention to me?”

Chase raised his head at the sound of metal scraping and answered quietly.

“In general, rather than saying that they are particularly concerned about such things, children say that they are worried about their father. Is there any other reason why I sent the medicine?”

“I guess there is.”

Devlan said that and smiled slightly at Chase.

“Whether I trust you or distrust you? How can you say I’m worried when I sent you to find out?”

“I got caught.”

Chase smiled.

What a friendly relationship between father and son.

“It was me who taught you, so there’s no way you wouldn’t recognize it.”

Devlan, who was coughing, answered as if it was no big deal. Chase also nodded as if it was no big deal.

“Don’t worry about my cold. I already have a lot of work to do, so I’m worried that it might be cause for unnecessary worry.”

warning.

A warning given instead of directly mentioning the correlation between Marquis Lin’s recent sudden hard-line stance against Tensil and Chase’s interest in Devlan’s cold. It was a warning to stop worrying and not create unnecessary ‘worry’ by going out like that.

This peaceful warning was delivered without mentioning whether the person who would be worrying about Chase was Chase himself, Marquis Lynn, Arianne, or some youngest prince and his healer in the distance.

“Actually, isn’t that the case with colds? Sometimes it gets worse, but at some point it clears up and gets better. You don’t have to worry.”

“Is that so.”

The current Chase was not the one who experienced firsthand how a severe cold spreads. Therefore, Chase answered briefly with an expression similar to that of someone talking about someone else’s business, and then continued.

Planz.

What on earth were you talking about?

At this point, when I thought that I needed to know what Plantz had said to Chase, I heard Chase’s words as if he was looking into Calian’s mind.

– Just in case, Prince Planz wanted to tell me directly, so I won’t tell Prince Calian.

under.

Calian, who covered his face with his palms, tried to suppress his laughter and answered.

– When I asked if you had become close friends, you said it as if you hadn’t. It seems like you have become very close friends. Two minutes.

My mind is complicated.

It’s really complicated.

I couldn’t like it, I couldn’t hate it, it was sad, it was fun, it was sad, it was absurd, it was embarrassing, but I also wondered if it was natural.

– Deep thinking and quick thinking. He’s a decent person.

And Chase said this:

Planz spoke as if he had already forgotten about making a fake permit to enter the Chermil Palace.

– More than anything, he seems to be very worried about Prince Calian.

– Well, rather than worrying about me. I do not know. To be honest, there are times when I feel like I don’t really know why I do this, and I’m even more unsure why they do that to me.

Chase said he didn’t know what to do, so he just shook his head. Anyway, Chase also had no intention of praising Plantz any further, so he didn’t say anything more about Plantz and started talking about something else.

– By the way, now I’m thinking about learning how to manage mana.

– Are you talking about mana?

Instead of talking about other people, Chase talked about himself. Because he knew better than anyone else that the person Calian was most worried about was not Plants.

– yes. I don’t think I’ll be able to receive help from Arianne or Lord Castrin for the rest of my life.

Chase laughed when he said that, and Calian also laughed.

In the end, we both just laughed because it involved the fact that we would have to spend the rest of our lives exchanging voices like this without being able to see each other. Since I couldn’t go to Serenti and raise my voice in anger, I just laughed.

Calian, who was laughing like that, answered.

– You didn’t think it was a bad idea. Since you are learning from Lord Castrin, you may become an Auror one day.

– No matter how far you have already come, I think you are talking too easily, Prince Calian.

-Did I say that?

A pleasant sound of laughter reached Chase once again.

– But I really don’t think it’s a bad idea to learn it in advance.

Knights also learn how to manage mana.

One day, when I take the path of the sword, I will have to accumulate aura, so I am learning how to manage mana with vague hopes for that. Then, there were some knights who found out that they had no talent for manipulating mana at all and even put down their swords. As Calian, I wonder if there could be anything more foolish than that, but it wasn’t something he could interfere with when he felt so skeptical and gave up.

– I don’t know if it’s a coincidence, but I was also thinking of telling you how to manage mana. How amazing.

Chase understood that Calian was planning to teach Plantz how to manipulate mana. I knew that I couldn’t include the word ‘Brother Planz’ in the conversation, and it was difficult to say ‘Prince Planz 2nd Prince’, so I was trying to leave out that name as much as possible.

That was not something Chase could intervene and correct. So Chase just answered quietly.

– Are you trying to tell Prince Plantz about mana?

– yes. That’s what I’m going to do.

Perhaps, if Planz had known what Calian had in mind when he asked him to come to the forest today, he would not have regarded it as an invitation to hell.

Of course, since we met, I had the intention of sparring both privately and privately. anyway.

As I was chatting with Chase, I saw a white horse with a raven in front and a pea sitting on it.

Calian, who praised Raven for bringing Plants here on his behalf, finished his conversation with Chase and stood up.

“Are you here?”

Calian looked around for a moment and spoke to Plantz, who was getting off his horse.

“I’m going to teach you something fun today. You’ll have to practice it every day, but it will be fun. Just promise me one thing.”

Planz looked at Calian in silence and said.

“What promise?”

Calian, who had been looking at Plants like that for a while, answered with a small smile.

“Why am I telling you? You must not pass over this time.”

Calian’s mana, Bern’s aura, and the aura that Calian currently has. I planned to compare and show them all.

Why are you trying to show it?

Why are you teaching me how to manage mana?

He was asking me to never think about why he was already trying to teach me how to practice accumulating mana on my own without Calian.
