Chapter 374

Chapter 66. It was mine (6),

and of course they recognized Dmirea.

But there was no reaction.

If you came here to investigate the explosion, you wouldn’t see it like this. So Demirea, who guessed the purpose of why they came, opened her mouth first.

“This is Siegfried’s Demirea.”

What kind of title does this person belong to? Whose children are they and what are their titles? He simply revealed himself as if there was no need to mention such a thing. Actually, it would be okay if I didn’t even mention that, but I did mention it. There was no respect for the other person.

“... This is Tayden Galedman of the Capital Guard. Meeting you, Duke.”

“What is going on with the capital guards leading the troops?”

“I came to check on the explosion.”

Demirea took a look around.

And, covering Aila, he gave his answer as he stood.

“There are no innocent casualties. Siegfried will take care of compensating for the broken items, so please return.”

“There is someone we need to investigate, Little Duke.”

“Who are you talking about?”

“I heard that the culprit who caused the explosion using magic bullets is here.”

“The magic bullet exploded in the air. It doesn’t sound good to call the person involved with it a culprit.”

“We are also conducting an investigation into what destroyed this place like this...”

“Are you saying that you will investigate Prince Calian’s person?”

– Diverse.

The clever Raven pretended to know when she heard a familiar name. Demirea raised one of her white-furred front paws and pointed at Raven, who was lightly rolling on the ground, and opened her mouth.

“As you can see, the 3rd Prince is here. In that case, it seems to be the responsibility of Balkan, not the Capital Guard. Isn’t it?”

Matters involving the royal family were not the responsibility of the capital guard. This is something the Balkans must proceed with. Just as in the past, when the capital guards arrested Kyrie, who had trashed a gambling house, they immediately handed over all investigative authority to the royal family.

Guard Tayden spoke again toward Demirea, who mentioned that fact.

“I need to check for myself why the magic bullet was used and what the intention was. Little Duke.”

“How many times do I have to tell you before you understand what I’m saying?”

Demirea’s tone changed.

It was the same low level, but it was a tone that the usual Demirea, who degrades the other person even more, would not say.

“But Little Duke.”

The opponent did not back down.

He was stubborn as if he wanted to grab Aila and leave this place before Calian, who was said to be here, showed up, as if he wanted to take Aila with him before Balkan came.

“If you continue to block us, we will have no choice but to force you to come forward. Please step back.”

“Do you think it’s possible? With only eight people.”

“I trust you will step aside.”

It’s so confident that it’s hard to understand.

Even though they knew that the person standing in front of them was Siegfried’s minor duke.

The prestige of Duke Siegfried could not be ignored, but they acted because they knew better than Briesen, not Siegfried, who could harm them or give them the compensation they deserved. I was promised that if I could somehow catch the woman behind me and hand her over to the marquis, I would protect her from any disadvantages from anyone and I would accept her as a knight of the marquis before daybreak.

Demirea looked at Tayden.

I already know what happened to Gray when he met Calian. Now, Gray’s intention is to separate Calian from Rashid and capture Aila, who seems to have been following him, to gain a hand to deal with Calian. The number is obvious.

Nevertheless, Demirea did not say anything else. He didn’t even move to block Tayden’s path.

“Okay then. I’ll pass by, Little Duke.”

Tayden, who saw this as an action to back down, put his foot out. Demirea, who had been standing in front until now, kept her mouth shut. I thought he would be angry, but he didn’t say anything.

But there was a problem. The other guards who should have followed behind Tayden also did not move. No one said anything else.

Only then did Tayden feel something strange and turned his head.

I looked back.

Knights dressed in black rushed forward and stood between Demirea and Tayden. Other people standing around can be seen bowing deeply towards someone.

“...... now.”

Someone approached.

A low, low voice echoes through the silent streets.

“Are you trying to ignore the Duke’s words and get involved in the royal family’s affairs?”

I see a silver-white horse.

The eyes of the person sitting on it are visible.

“dare.”

Light green eyes that seemed to be weighing down a person were looking down at Tayden.

There was a strong scent of flowers that did not fade in the slightest.

“Has something bad happened?”

“Don’t you remember that?”

I don’t know if something bad happened.

I definitely have a bad feeling.

Calian, who had been quietly watching the situation like a sack of barley, opened his mouth. These days, my brother’s condition has changed significantly as he’s been boiled and pickled, so I’m trying to rescue him before he falls into the water again.

But I couldn’t continue speaking.

“I remember when my mother tried to break your and your father’s necks.”

Plantz raised his head.

One lip was raised slightly towards Rashid.

“What happened that was bad? I don’t know.”

Calian frowned slightly upon seeing Planz’s unexpected appearance. And Rashid’s face showed emotion for just a moment.

Pure malice.

Or pure joy.

Something like that came into light for a moment.

“I’m glad you still seem confident. It’s really nice to see that you haven’t changed. Your Majesty.”

Rashid slightly lowered his head and raised it.

“Whether it’s under the skirt of the former Queen Silike or under the shadow of her younger brother. It’s no different than looking out the window while in a greenhouse, so I wonder if something has changed... I was expecting it.”

Calian raised his head.

– Jeopuk.

Plantz took a step.

As if I hadn’t heard anything.

Just make sure Kalian doesn’t grab the guy’s neck. I walked very slowly, one step at a time.

The wind blew.

I could smell a deep, strong floral scent.

“...... under.”

Calian let out a laugh without realizing it.

A scent without any foul odor.

The scent of lilies that occasionally came from Needlen. It was oozing out of Plants.

I sprayed perfume on my body with my own hands.

– Jump and jump.

He came with a scent that made me furrow my eyebrows.

After doing that,

– Tak.

I stood in front of Calian.

“Can’t you see anything has changed?”

Plantz answered.

Rashid’s face was not visible.

Calian’s face hardened as he could not see anything other than the unfamiliar back of the pea.

“You’re more in the shadow of your younger brother. It’s worth buying.”

“...Brother. Now.”

There was no reply to Calian’s words.

Instead, the answer was directed to Rashid.

“But. Even though it looks like I haven’t changed... you have definitely changed.”

“Have I changed?”

I know better than Kalyan what kind of guy Rashid is. Calian, who shouldn’t be involved with anyone right now, knows what he did to Gray. In the end, I knew that if Calian blocked the guy who had Planz at the end of my interest, it would be Calian who would eliminate that guy by any means necessary.

Because that shouldn’t happen.

“Isn’t it because my mother cared so much on behalf of your father, who didn’t deserve anything? I thought I was able to live comfortably in a good place thanks to that.”

A low voice was directed at Rashid.

“That’s not true, it seems like you went through a lot of trouble... unfortunately.”

Plantz’s hands went behind his back.

– It’s my job.

My brother’s sign language, which had naturally become stronger, was directed at Kalian.
