Chapter 52. Be patient, brother (3)
Pendelia.
Now I know what that name is.
“That one over there. It’s a medicine made from Pendelia.”
There was a large plant in the direction Arsene pointed. It has wide, slightly split leaves attached to a green stem with brown spots. It was something I had seen before.
I remembered someone saying that they didn’t like the fruit, which was green on the outside and pink on the inside.
“I got it from the healer Sir Bern to use it after sparring with the prince. Since I can’t call a healer, let alone a healer, it would be better to use some medicine. This may be my first time seeing Pendelia...” “I know
. “What is it?”
“How does Prince Planz know such a thing?”
He said that he had been drinking and rolled down a cliff, but when he opened his eyes, he felt like everything was stuck to his body. Plantz, who remembered without forgetting a single word what Calian had told him in the city of elves, answered quietly.
“My brother told me that he once fell off a cliff when he had too much to drink.”
“...... ah.”
Unfortunately, Arsene did not understand the true meaning of Planz’s words.
Would the treatment of royal family be different just because they were Secretariat? Nevertheless, one can roughly guess what would have happened if raw, unprocessed grass had been applied to the prince’s body.
“Ah... Anyway, use Prince Planz.”
“Rather than me.”
Plantz frowned at Estina’s movements as she walked up the hill, which was not very steep, and stopped talking. This is because the pain came. Estina was a horse that did not have rough steps, but she was not as careful as Raven, who was careful not to shake her master’s body even when walking on this path.
Before I knew it, the bleeding at the wound had stopped and it was healing little by little. However, it was difficult to get used to the sensation felt every time the open wound moved.
Planz took a moment to catch his breath, control the sharp feeling, and then spoke.
“I think my brother needs it.”
“Fendelia is a slightly toxic herb. In general, it doesn’t matter, but if the prince uses it now, it’s not good.”
Plantz, who was looking at the medicine bottle handed to him by Arsene with his long arm outstretched, turned his head. I saw a black-haired crazy guy lying on top of Raven, unconscious.
Arsene was breathing better than when he first placed Calian on Raven’s saddle, and his purple lips were gradually returning to their original state. Isn’t this the blessing of a Sispanian who ignores a hangover and heals an injury even if it doesn’t relieve one’s excessive greed?
I remembered the image of my younger brother leaning on Raven a little while ago.
There is one sword cut on the arm and one on the waist.
That alone makes Plantz so nervous, so how can he stand there without frowning at all?
Is it terrible? Am I ignorant? Or is it familiar?
I can’t figure it out.
Plantz let out a short sigh and briefly squeezed and unclenched his bloodless hand, exposed under the moonlight. And then he opened his mouth in a lower voice.
“Wizard.”
“yes.”
“How many wizards can survive when they face them?”
“Are you talking about Xeon? Siren Siren will probably survive without difficulty, but for the rest, including me, it will depend on the situation. You know that I almost died too.”
strong.
I couldn’t forget the look the last dead warrior of Zeon gave me. I stepped forward without knowing, and Kalian blocked me, so I couldn’t aim my sword, but if I had, would I have survived?
well.
Probably would never have survived.
Planz, who had been thinking about this for a while, extended his uninjured arm to Arsene.
“Give it to me.”
“What are you asking for?”
“Revised version.”
“...How did you know I had it?”
Arsene, who was saying this and taking out the expensive crystal tablet, reminded Plantz that he did not have the wizard’s bag, and put it back and said,
“I’ll give it to you when I get back.”
“Don’t use it.”
“Why are you asking me to return a large crystal board that you don’t even have a place for? Are you saying you’re afraid I’ll use it as I please?”
Plantz responded to Arsene, who was looking at him with eyes that said he was not wearing out.
“You already wrote it.”
Arsene’s mouth closed quietly.
Arsene, who was looking at Calian for a moment, or more precisely at Calian’s gaze, asked in a whisper.
“How did you know I wrote a revised version?”
“I hope you didn’t call Marquis Manasil.”
It’s really difficult to talk to Planz.
When I asked him how he knew, he said something strange again.
I had a hard time understanding that he was asking this because he already knew that Arsene had contacted Reric with the crystal version and talked to Alan before coming to help the princes.
“I’m so scared that I can’t even drink water in front of Prince Planz. I think he’ll find out what I ate three days ago based on the water I drink.”
Even in the midst of his pain, Planz did not miss Arsene calling him ‘Prince Planz’ again. Isn’t there only one reason for Arsene to talk like that in front of Planz?
In this place where only flowers were planted to commemorate someone in a large garden, the second blooming flower was turning blue and emerging under the moonlight.
“This is Sinasta.”
okay.
It was Sinastar.
Plantz turned his head.
The guy who couldn’t stand the bird sat up and was looking out the window.
“why.”
“I just woke up.”
A cracked voice came out.
Plantz just nodded because he didn’t know that he was someone who could only sleep properly when Alan or Kyrie were by his side or when he was lying down in his own room in Chermil.
“Blood.”
“It has stopped. Feeling is coming back to my back.”
“okay.”
The blessing of Sispanian, who moved steadily despite the use of force, has been deciphered. I started treating my wounds.
By the way, looking at the pain in his back, Calian looked around for a moment, laughing as he thought he must have been hit in the back at that time. Then he stopped his head and held his breath for a moment.
“Did Brother Chase tell you about this place?”
“I heard it’s Concubine Louise’s villa. I don’t know where it is.”
Calian lifted his palms and covered his face.
A laugh escaped out.
“You can’t know.”
Even if it wasn’t the light of Sinastar, which was bluer than the stars, it was still enough to see inside the room.
Black sheets without a pattern, dark gray curtains, dark brown furniture with no shine. A desolate room without a single picture frame or vase. The place I visited occasionally was decorated just as I remembered.
I thought it was gone, but it seems not.
“... It’s my room.”
Queen Deanna’s villa.
And it was Bern’s room that had been prepared there.
Calian laughed for quite a long time as he faced the traces of Bern, who had not lived through this time.
Chase must have thought a lot about whether or not to give this room to Calian. He must have been worried that he got hurt and that he might become depressed while looking at this place. Nevertheless, I laughed because I thought I knew why they bothered to tell me about this villa and why Kalyan was in this room.
“I guess the meaning of my name isn’t completely wrong.”
Plantz looked at Calian blankly.
“If I ask, will you tell me now?”
Calian tried to shrug his shoulders as was his habit, but stopped because his back was throbbing, and then opened his mouth again.
“No. I’m not going to tell you the meaning of your name, so why would I tell you my old name?”
“...... okay.”
Calian chuckled at the momentary expression of irritation on his face and looked out the window.
“Anyway, it’s fun.”
“what.”
“Lord Hertz said that. You’ve fought enough, so now you should rest. Kirie told me not to stop, but I don’t know how the two have different personalities and what they say.”
Plantz did not answer. Instead, a small, cracked, blood-filled tone followed.
“I was so happy when Sir Hertz came to visit me a little while ago. As I was looking at Sir Hertz, a thought occurred to me. In the end, I thought I might have been waiting for Sir Hertz to come last time as well. Actually, I was both happy and sad when he told me not to stop. . When he told me to rest, I felt both sad and happy.”
Now, I’m saying this as if I’m complaining to Plants, but honestly, it was so hard and overwhelming.
“That’s also interesting. In the end, I ended up waiting for Lord Hertz twice on this earth. But the reasons were so different.”
“...... okay.”
Calian’s voice gradually subsided.
“That doesn’t mean I liked it.”
“know.”
“So you won’t experience the same thing twice.”
“know.”
“Don’t worry and rest. Because of you, there won’t be a war this time. I won’t let that happen.”
“...Speak informally.”
“I got hurt like this because of my brother, but you don’t even notice that?”
Planz frowned without answering.
Calian, who got a few informal words for the price of one wound, laughed softly once again.
A wave of blue light shimmered, illuminating Calian’s face and rising into the sky. Calian lay down again on the bed filled with the familiar scent and soon fell asleep. Even though neither Kirie nor Allen were there, he fell into a deep sleep.
Just a few hours later.
– All of Secretia’s soldiers who went to Bridget Forest died.
Until Plantz, who received this call from Chase, woke up his sleeping brother.
