Chapter 222

Chapter 39. I endured a lot (3).

The good thing is that I didn’t die.

The unfortunate thing is that I didn’t even faint.

Perhaps it was unfortunate for both Plants, but Arsene was still busy with work, neither dying nor fainting.

“Did you know, Vice Commander Prince, that the number of Balkan wizards will increase again within the next two weeks?”

“know.”

“Did the Prince, Vice Commander, take a shower?”

“I did it.”

“Have you had breakfast, Vice Commander Prince?”

“I did it.”

“The vice commander, the prince...”

“Get out.”

Plantz, who responded with a look in his eyes that wished he could get out of the office or out of this world, sat down with an annoyed face. Arsene immediately opened his mouth again when he saw the shirt collar pin and cuffs decorated with pale blue topaz being removed and handed to Relic.

“Close.”

Plantz covered his mouth as if he was about to say something, then immediately rolled up his sleeves and turned his eyes to the documents.

Thanks to this, Arsene, who was unable to say the words ‘despite your busy schedule, took a shower, ate a meal, and came home well-dressed,’ took a sip of the dark-colored coffee reminiscent of a wolf’s pupils. I didn’t know that it was late because I was with Calian, but seeing him so clean, relaxed, and even luxurious made me feel angry for no reason.

Reric glanced at Arsene, who was consuming caffeine, not knowing whether he was drinking it to survive or to die, and said to Plantz.

“What tea can I bring you, Prince?”

Plantz, who was quickly going through the directory, answered in passing.

“Not coffee.”

“Yes. I will prepare it right away.”

After answering this, Reric hung up his ice blue jacket, handed Plantz a thin cardigan of a similar color, and went outside.

Meanwhile, Arsene, who had been looking at Planz’s face for a while, quietly turned his eyes to the documents. I thought that if I were to meet Alan this time, I would ask him to appoint just one more person who is young and smart, but short-spoken, rich, but poor in social skills, and someone who is stuck in an ordinary life. Of course, the number of deputy commanders will not increase, but in any case, he will be someone who can help make things easier.

–

Reric came back in not long after and put down one cup of orange and vanilla-flavored black tea on the seats of Planz and Arsene and spoke.

“Then call me again when you need me.”

After Relic, who gave the usual greeting, went out, Arsene, who was impressed by the scent of tea, felt like taking a break and opened his mouth.

“What have you been talking about since morning?”

“this and that.”

Even though it’s annoying, he always answers.

Of course, if that can be said to be a proper answer, then yes.

“It’s because you don’t look good.”

I was asking because I was worried about Calian, who would have been with Plants forever. Not the 2nd prince, who is like newly grown moss, but the 3rd prince, who never hesitates to show us what kind of hell he can see with his beautiful face.

I was definitely not worried about that Planz. never.

“You, Vice Commander.”

“yes.”

“Do you want to try snake hunting?”

I was wondering why they were looking for Vice Commander Arsene Hertz and not a wizard.

“Big snake.”

Plantz added, already unfolding the second bundle of documents with an expression that seemed like it was nothing special.

“I don’t have a salary anymore. I don’t have any more salary to cut, so I won’t be able to buy anything for a while, my prince, Vice Commander.”

This is what Arsene answered to Plantz, who is in charge of the ‘older brother’ in the turbulent and crazy sibling relationship that tries to strengthen their friendship by cutting ties with each other’s parents.

“Wouldn’t it be a little different from getting a bottle of Basilica from the liquor store over there?”

Plantz, who didn’t know what Basilica was, but knew it was nonsense, ignored Arsene’s words and asked again.

“Are you willing to do whatever my brother asks you to do?”

“Prince Planz.”

Arsene, who was looking down at the nice-smelling teacup, called out to Plantz. I looked into the light green eyes that seemed to contain a forest that was just blooming in the clear morning sky.

“The prince will never let you do that. If anything goes wrong, there will be a war with Secretia. Even if you don’t have to worry about a war, the prince won’t let Vulcan into that land, no matter what the reason. You know that.”

Would Calian try to bring Arsene, who is no one, and Balkan, who is not an army, into Secretia?

Planz, who already knew that Arsene’s words were true, sighed briefly.

How to catch a snake without anyone going there.

I still don’t know what kind of absurd conclusion my crazy brother will come up with while thinking about it.

“Is that why you talked so long this morning?”

“no.”

Plantz, who felt that this might be his first time talking to the blue-haired wizard without growling at each other, became a little more lenient and added an explanation.

“Cutting out someone’s insides.”

Arsene frowned at these words and looked at Planz. Plantz shook his head because he seemed to be asking what he had said to make Calian upset.

“it’s not me.”

Not me.

The crown prince who lives somewhere held the sword himself.

“......So I told you to do it?”

It may have been because he was telling me not to give up on being the king’s older brother. Planz, who was thinking about that, put down the teacup he had taken a sip of and opened his mouth.

“Innocent sinners do their work.”

Arsene, who had given up on asking more about what was going on, giggled and nodded.

An innocent sinner.

It was because I really liked those words.

* * *

Oh,

he really gets into a lot of arguments.

“To make me feel at ease inside and Brother Randel’s heart to feel at ease. It’s necessary, so it’s a win-win for both of us.” If

we use Gray Briesen well to deceive Evan and get rid of him, that damn pea won’t be able to make strange threats anymore, so Calian will feel at ease, and if the pea properly comes forward to help Randel. Since the oath tied to his heart will be resolved, Randel’s heart will also feel at ease.

After getting the answer to his question, Randel lowered his eyes and said,

“I’ll check the possible date and send you down.”

Calian nodded his head in gratitude. He looked slightly bowed. He then asked the following question:

“Since when have you been meeting Lennon Brissen?”

“I haven’t met him.” “Have you

never met him?”

“Didn’t you clean up Rosellita?

” It was Lennon Brissen, the owner of the Brisen Merchants at the time, who tried to hand over the sacred items that Blue Warbler had collected in collusion with Count Hail Latran to Randel. Calian, who could no longer tolerate Lennon constantly blocking his way, bought the Brisen Merchants as well. Didn’t he clean up Lennon?

Calian, recalling that incident, nodded.

“Is it because of me?”

“That’s right.”

It’s very different from some guy who blames himself for everything in the world.

Treat the two older brothers in moderation . Calian, who had given up the thought of mixing half and half, answered in a calm voice,

“I can’t say I’m sorry.”

“Do whatever you feel comfortable with.” It’s a relationship of giving and receiving anyway.”

Landel’s feelings become complicated when he says something that Demirea would say.

“I feel a little sad when you say that. Between brothers.”

Randel raised his gaze at these words and looked directly at Calian. He intuited a fire that would not be extinguished in cold, deep, and stuffy water. “You are

saying uncomfortable words.”

“Is that so?”

“It’s new.”

Calian said . I laughed.

Every time I look into Randel’s eyes, I always think of the deep sea of that day. I wonder how on earth Chase jumped into the cold sea that was so deep. I wondered what kind of spirit he had in jumping in without fear. If it had been Randel, of course, Plantz would have been injured

. It was as if he had already shown me the day before, but anyway, what would Randel have done?

Chase, who would have jumped in without hesitation, and Randel, who would have thought ahead, seemed so different from each other that I laughed.

“I have one question.”

“Ask me.”

“Why did you just leave? that day. Without helping.”

In response to Calian’s question, Randel opened his mouth without hesitation. He did not even ask when the day Calian was referring to meant.

“Wouldn’t this be a good thing for both of us? I kept the secret, and the second one kept his position.”

Silike lost too much blood and was unable to come to his senses throughout the punishment, and was on the verge of death. Thanks to this, Silike was able to escape from the sight of the Van Vriesen nobles. Randel, who thought of his son, answered like this.

Hearing this extremely rational person’s answer, Calian’s fingertips drew an arc on the table.

Randel and Chase were different.

Randel and Plantz were also different.

“If it was me who was dying, then “I guess you stepped forward when the time came.”

“Wouldn’t that be good for both sides and look good?”

Calian saved his life, and Randel, instead of being caught hiding something, joined hands with Calian, who was carrying Vulkan on his back. Letting the friendship between the two brothers know was brought to Brissen. It would be the perfect way to respond, so if that were the situation, Randel would have stepped in and healed him.

Calian nodded briefly.

“I understand.”

I couldn’t say that this way of thinking was wrong and selfish. Although it was funny, it was the most correct thought as a prince. Since it was something that had to be done, I had no intention of blaming it.

“Please send me all the way. I will relay the schedule.”

Randel looked one more time at Calian, who was trying to stand up without any further questions.

“I also want to ask you something.”

Calian did not answer, but did not get up either.

“I am thinking of going to Arfia Palace instead of Camilon. Is it still the same?”

He said he would raise a dog in Camilon, but he never said anything about going to Arfia Palace and doing something. So, I was curious about whether Calian really intended to ascend to the throne. “My brother said he wasn’t going

. I can’t yield to Brother Randel. So, I guess I can go.”

It’s not that coveted and has a lot of uses, but after hearing that he wouldn’t give up the crown to you, Randel asked one more question. “Isn’t it possible that

the position is now needed for a purpose?

” Asked if he wanted the throne itself rather than the throne as a means to achieve something.

“No. My dream actually got a little bigger.”

Calian shook his head.

“The crown of this small country is no longer enough to be used as a means. “I’m thinking of going to meet someone later.” I said, ”

I’m going to turn over the sleeping Serenti and go hit her in the back of the head.

If I do that, Arsene will really try to erect a statue, but I’ll have to deal with that by then.

Then, I put a short name on the main gate of the palace. Randel put the last spoonful of sorbet into his mouth as he looked at his youngest brother, who had set a grand goal for himself.

Calian, who was still sitting quietly with an unreadable expression on his face, stood up. Talking

to Plantz. I did this and got scolded by Hina. After hearing the truth from Chase, I confessed my feelings to Kirie. After that, I met Randel and asked for what I needed. So now I was about to go ask questions. It was too late to stop because of the rain

. Because the road is too short. There is still a long way to go before I can walk straight without being distracted. So, I came to my senses and tried not to stop. I was planning to go to the Heisia Palace site. To meet the extremely great man one more time. “I’ll just leave now.”

Sorbet

said

. The taste stayed in my mouth for a long time.

It was sour, bitter and sweet.
