Chapter 255

Chapter 45. To See the Sea (2)

I read one and missed one.

I locked the window while showering. Just in case, I just wore the ring and washed it.

I locked the window because I could clearly see what thoughts were going through the mind of the old kiwi who was staring at the ring instead of sparring. It was closed very tightly and locked tightly.

“Why on earth are you so curious about that?”

He clearly saw with his own eyes that Kirie almost stabbed him in the heart during a sparring match, but instead of getting angry, he was upset that his younger brother’s servant was just acting like that without even showing the slightest question as to why he attacked him.

It’s a bit better now, but at that time, he was in a state where he had no limits to his life, so I didn’t even expect him to get angry at Kirie over that. Instead, I told him that anything is fine, brother, so you too should be curious, and he became curious about something unexpected.

– So what is my name?

After fixing my weak heart, I started asking this question again.

For five days, whenever I made eye contact, he would flash his green eyes and ask me what my name meant, and I was so sick of it. In terms of persistence, it would be more, not less, than Lucy trying to catch rainwater splashing outside the window.

However, even if I tried to explain it properly, my damn mouth couldn’t tell a lie, so I felt like I was going to be hit with scissors if I continued like this. I taught you curiosity, but it seems like you also learned stubbornness somewhere along the way.

“Where on earth did you learn that in the palace?”

I just can’t figure it out.

While lamenting, “Where in this bleak royal palace did I learn such things?”

“... It must have been me. It must have been me. Who else but me? Is there more than me? I must have taught you. It must have been me. Yes, I did it.”

Calian, who lightly used her magic to shake off the moisture that had accumulated on her jet-black hair and put on the clothes the maids had prepared, muttered quietly.

My eyes fell on the ring that had almost been taken away.

Still, Calian, whose feelings were so complicated because he found it funny that he thought it was fortunate that he could clearly see what kind of trick he was trying to do, shook his head.

“My brother’s thoughts are so obvious.”

Then he said this and laughed.

Because he had not yet completed puberty, he could not even imagine what the tempestuous pea, who had never forgotten his firm determination not to listen to Calian’s words, had planned to do tomorrow.

Calian, who had read Plantz’s small plan and missed a grand plan, but had not yet realized that he had missed something, opened his mouth outside the door.

“Ask them to come in.”

“Yes, my prince.”

Yan’s voice, who had been waiting outside, was immediately heard, and then the door opened with a quiet sound. And Aila came in, dressed a little more comfortably than on the first day.

“Welcome Aila.”

Clothes in a color that you probably like for the same reason as Kalyan. He was wearing matte black leather pants and a jacket, which in some ways didn’t seem to match, but made me wonder if there was another color that would go better with him.

“Have you waited long?”

“little bit.”

“I’m sorry. I wasn’t able to wash comfortably because I was worried about the person living upstairs. Did you rest well so far?”

Ayla, thinking of a lobster full of buttery flavor, answered in a light tone.

“Yes. It’s been a while.”

“Okay. Good job.”

A few simple words of greeting were exchanged, and after a while, Jan, who was not at all curious about who Aila was, came in, put down two cups of tea, and left.

After exchanging greetings, Ayla just looked down at the citrus-scented black tea and did not say another word.

‘It was like that originally.’

Aila wasn’t really a talkative person. In any case, I was just being sociable ‘due to the nature of my job’. So, it was a great pleasure for Calian to be quiet like this now.

“I guess I’m feeling a little more comfortable. I see you’ve become quieter.”

Aela, who was staring at Calian without answering, let out a short sigh and answered.

“I need time to get used to the fact that you know me so well that I won’t be surprised. Please understand if I look at you strangely sometimes.”

“I understand. It’s been a long time.”

Now to explain, Kalian was also ‘caught’ by Eila.

Because of this, he thought for a moment of Demirea, who had promised him that he would live without any more secrets, and felt like blaming himself for breaking his promise, but Calian did not do that.

If you look at it strictly, wasn’t it already a year ago that Aila caught him? It would be correct to say that this happened right after he was caught by Plantz, long before he made his promise to Demirea.

So Calian had already shaken off his conscience about Demirea five days ago. Because I didn’t have a guilty personality like the person living upstairs.

“It took me a long time to get used to it, so I’m not surprised that I’ve changed. So it’s okay.”

In fact, it is difficult for Calian to say whether he has fully adapted or not, but in any case, he has improved a lot compared to before. Anyway, it took Kalian so long to get used to it, so I wonder if others would be surprised. Kyrie, who treats Calian as if he knows everything he knows about her, is just ignoring it.

“Why did you call me?”

“I have something to give you. Although it took a little longer than expected.”

Calian answered briefly and pointed to something he had placed next to the table.

One piece of parchment and one piece of paper.

Among them, Aila picked up the paper first and quickly read the few words written on it, then let out a short laugh.

“You know me really well.”

– The deceased was identified as Eila Verdandi.

Calian nodded and responded to Aila’s brief impressions as she held a piece of paper with her real name and last name in her hand.

Jan, who found out that I had stayed up all night sitting on the sofa with the window open so that a completely chilling breeze could fill the room, nagged me for a while again.

Calian didn’t say not to worry because it wasn’t cold at all even when the winter wind blew in the great desert. I didn’t even say that it felt good because it felt like a sea breeze.

“What are you going to do if you catch a cold?”

“Sorry. I forgot to close the window.”

“Do you know that you really can’t take your eyes off me even for a moment?”

I smiled brightly as I watched Yan calmly and hurriedly bring a blanket and wrap it around my whole body, nagging me and saying that I couldn’t leave her alone.

I didn’t mean to, but Jan canceled all of my morning plans.

“The new person appointed to Margrave, where Marquis Gray Briesen was, will come to say hello after lunch, so please get some sleep until then. I don’t know how you can be so upset.”

Kalian said this while bringing her lemon honey tea that should have been hot rather than warm, and Kalian laughed again. “Don’t laugh because she’s

not pretty at all.”

There’s no way she’s not pretty. Calian, who was about to answer, nodded without saying a word. Then he looked up at Yan for a while and opened his mouth.

“I’m sorry.”

I apologized like this because I was planning to break away from Yan, who wouldn’t take my eyes off me even for a moment, and run away again. That’s how I spent

the morning . After getting some sleep, I had lunch with Lemain for the first time in a while and met the new Margrave. I met Alan and told him again what I wanted him to do while I was away. I met Kyrie and asked him to watch Plantz’s sword training. He asked for more.

Another day passed and night fell.

Calian sent Jan out saying he would go to bed early, opened the safe, took out some money, put it in a palm-sized bag he had borrowed from Alan, and put it in his arms. After that, he silently looked out the window. I jumped down.

I was planning to stop by Siegfried’s Castle anyway, and I didn’t plan on staying out for a long time, so I didn’t have any luggage to take with me. He said he was tired and went in without even eating dinner, and the lights on the 4th floor were already turned off. “I guess there’s a lot of work to do

. .”

Calian muttered this with a chuckle and went to the stables.

– Tap, tap!

Raven stamped her foot as if to say hello.

After she got hurt, she met her a few times and comforted her, but she still couldn’t put her mind at ease, so Raven placed her forehead on Calian’s stomach. He held it and made a purring sound.

“It’s all healed.” “It’s okay.”

After giving Raven a gentle pat, Calian jumped up and got on the saddle, and Raven sped towards the main gate of the palace as usual. Raven knew now that she had to move quickly before going outside the palace so the knights wouldn’t chase her. Because.

– Tap, tap, tap!

So, he quickly passed the main gate and reached the square. When the knights who had been chasing him turned around, Raven stopped. Rather than slowing down, she stopped in place. ”

.... .. Hmm.”

That was why Calian, facing something unexpected, spoke in a panic for the first time in a long time.

I had no taste for doubting anyone, so I trusted him too

much. I didn’t have any doubts.

A pink-haired wizard wearing a pure white robe and the same clothes. Ten wizards came into view. Thirty knights in pure white uniforms were seen. Next to them stood a servant with grape-colored hair.

“Meow!”

“Meow!”

The two cats in the servant’s arms meowed prettily.

“I came to see you off, Prince Calian. Lucy and Anne have also come to see us off, so don’t worry.”

Relic’s red eyes filled with a shy smile as he answered an unasked question.

And.

“It seems like my brother forgot the order.”

“What order? What do you mean?”

“Negotiation first, then threats.”

“...Brother.”

Don’t just go to the Sword Master and threaten him, but go to the 3rd Prince Calian, who is accompanying the Vice Commander of the Balkan Corps, and start the negotiation. Dazzling

under the moonlight . Plantz, well-dressed in a shining white uniform, was riding on a silver-white, nameless horse. His white cloak was flowing beautifully in the blowing autumn wind. “My only brother, you haven’t put your name anywhere

. I have something, so I’ll come with you.”

Pea, who had come to accompany his younger brother on his short journey who was planning to go to the elves alone and threaten them, raised one corner of his mouth. A low voice pierced Calian’s ears. “So, Vulcan, who is there

. Isn’t that the title of vice-corps commander?”

How could it be that my younger brother, who doesn’t have a single bit of power in his hands, wants to go off on his own to cause an accident again? My older brother, who holds power, should follow suit. “Ah...” That’s the

plan

. Calian, who had been looking at Tsu for a long time, raised his hand.

The red lips hidden under the palm under the black hood opened and a murmur like a whisper came out. “

Where on earth did you learn that?”

It must have been me.

It must have been me. Not me. Who could it be? Is there anyone else besides me? I must have taught it. It must have been me. Yes, I did it.

Ah...

I’m really amazed.
