Chapter 78. If you entered my area (2)
[Abtondant],
this is something I have already learned since the circle was insufficient.
Now I could use it, but I used my magic for something I had hoped would never come.
The smell of blood soaks my clothes. Dye your hands.
I looked down at it.
I know that if I use my magic once again, I can erase that redness. However, my head, forgetting about other thoughts, called on memories instead of magic.
‘Who are you blaming? ‘You call me every day in your nightmares.’
The sounds of days gone by come back to me.
Bright red eyes, unable to hold back memories, lost their breath and sank.
‘I said I would live and die as a knight like a prince.’
‘What should I worry about when you’re here?’
‘Come to your senses. Don’t stop...’
‘If your brother is that serious, give it a try. ‘In the end, neither your brother nor you will be able to protect anything with blood-soaked hands.’
There wasn’t.
Not even once.
‘Your Majesty, the Blue Warbler...’
‘Please... come out of the water and at least vomit.’
‘Don’t do that. Just... just be. Please... Bern. Just be. ‘I will ask you this...’
I have never been able to protect the things I decided to protect. Even though I searched through all the jumbled memories, I couldn’t find it.
‘I, Bern Secretia, in the name of Serenti, to Prince Chase Secretia, who will be my only master...’
Instead of the things I had decided to protect, I could only keep one oath, which was to die before the person I was trying to protect. So it was never something that was protected, and therefore, in the end, it was a life in which nothing was protected. It was a life that ended without anyone being able to protect anything.
It was a life where I was unable to protect everything.
‘Because I want to live.’
Still, this time will be different.
So I guess this time will be different.
I thought. I made a promise.
“......again...”
But why like this?
Why on earth again? I am.
I am.
I smell blood again. In the end, I took over again.
In a place that should have been the safest.
Where it should have been.
In the place where my hand touched, yet again like this.
Me to the guy for whom everything in the world was already complete poison. This is how I poison this guy who was completely poison in every place he stepped, every word he spoke, and every breath he took. In the end, I’m still here again. I am like this again.
‘Can you help me save my life?’
I fell into the sea sent by a snake and met the ghost again.
Deeply intoxicated with Serenus, I was hit by a rain of arrows again.
My heart, which had frozen in front of the castle gate that day, stopped again.
I couldn’t do anything and it happened again.
“...... no.”
Me again.
Me again.
also. like this. A life that cannot be protected.
I’m afraid it will happen again.
Because I was scared.
“It’s not your fault... Kalyan.”
I couldn’t hear a single word being said.
* * *
– Wouldn’t it be dangerous?
The other person asked this:
He answered as if it was nothing to think about.
– Didn’t you know it was dangerous?
– I’m not saying this because I don’t know. But it seems too early to release it already...
– Already.
He interrupted the other person and let out a laugh.
The other party did not react differently. I put aside what I wanted to say and waited for him to continue.
– Is there a set time for moving when the time comes? Since the situation has come to that, I am telling you to let it go.
– It’s time. Has Alan Manasil been dealt with?
-Not yet. However, there is no need to worry.
-Alan Are you saying that you should take out Manasil and not worry about it?
– Alan Manasil is in Kairisis. We didn’t go together.
The other person snorted at his answer.
He wasn’t angry, and the other person stopped laughing and spoke.
– I finally realized that Alan Manasil was a person who could count on the strength he didn’t have just because he didn’t move together, Baron.
It was sarcastic.
But even after saying that, he still didn’t get angry.
Randel, who probably didn’t see what had happened to Plants, was heard asking without any sign of surprise.
Calian looked into the eyes filled with the abyss of the deep blue sea and nodded slightly. And he opened his mouth with a voice already submerged in the deep sea.
“Kiri. Hina.”
It was not an answer to Randel’s question.
But it was the answer at the same time.
Kalian, who brought in Plantz, who was barely able to breathe, is looking for Hina. What could be other than an accident?
“I tried, but it won’t connect.”
“...... okay.”
Communication was possible with Eila around the carriage, but communication was blocked with Kairisis. It was the same as when Alan, who was inside the defense shield of the forest north of the palace, was unable to contact Calian. This was to prevent long-distance attacks sent outside the range that could be responded to by Sispanian’s magic power.
But isn’t communication magic only possible when the magical powers of both sides are connected? Just like what happened in the past when Chase couldn’t hear Calian without the help of Arianne or Teilan. Therefore, Hina cannot be summoned within the magic defense range. Because even if magic power is sent from this side, it is not connected to the magic power sent from outside.
“I’ll get out of here and call you.”
“I’ll go.”
I was in tears.
The blood that had leaked out for no matter how many times had already soaked Plantz’s clothes again. Calian, who was watching the scene, continued to speak indifferently.
“... That’s fast.”
Life and Peer, who have given up on collecting what is pouring out towards themselves, continue to try to keep it from heading towards Plants.
I’ll hold on.
He survived a wound that almost broke his heart. He is the one who withstood the restraints imposed by the oath seal. This guy can withstand even the scent of Renieri. This is the guy who withstood it all and crossed the Secretia barrier. After all, this is a guy who stood in front of the axis of time like that.
It’s about this much poison.
“I’ll hold on.”
Calian took a step back after speaking without knowing who he was saying, whether it was calculation, faith, or desire. The purpose was to get out of here as quickly as possible without further delay and bring Alan and Hina.
“Stay.”
The person who was watching Kalyan speak like that opened his mouth.
It was Randel.
Calian, who neither expected nor had any intention of asking for Randel’s treatment, and who still had enough reason to know that Randel’s treatment was not possible, answered.
“There is a circle. Brother Randel’s divine power cannot cure it.”
“Because I don’t know. Stay.”
But Randel answered:
Calian looked at Randel.
Randel, skipping the long explanation, stood up. I reached out and took off the necklace hanging around my neck.
Sick of it.
That small necklace that he held in his hand when he made the rose bloom again, when he ‘cured’ the wizard who was attacking him, when he deciphered Slayman and healed Ren. I solved it this time too. And
-......tuk.
I put it down quietly.
removed from the body.
Calian, who had figured out what it meant and had decided to watch Randel instead of going out, stretched out his arms.
– Percussion!
Calian stopped Randel by holding his hand as he headed toward Plantz. And immediately opened his mouth.
“Leave it.”
Not even a few minutes had passed since I was poisoned.
Sispanian’s blessing became stronger than before.
So why not?
“I have no intention of asking for your life while ruining Brother Randel’s life.”
Not the mana of nature, not the divine power contained in divine objects. I had no intention of asking for the stone in Randel’s heart to save Plants with Randel’s life force accumulated in it. There was absolutely nothing.
Randel glanced at Planz’s face, which was gradually turning blue, his mouth, which was turning purple, and the dark red blood flowing non-stop from his fingertips, and then he looked at Calian. I looked at the tired guy with an expression that wasn’t much different from the guy lying down.
“So. Are you planning on making me wait like that? Do you think that would be okay?”
A quiet question was directed to Calian.
“I can come back soon.”
Is it okay if I make you wait?
Calian, who couldn’t lie about that, gave a different answer.
“If anyone sees it, they will think that they will live a few days less.”
“Whether it’s a few days or a few minutes, it’s going to be less. I don’t have time to argue with Brother Randel like this. I’ll be back.”
“It is done.”
Where did he get that strength? Randel shook off Calian’s arm. Then he quietly sat down with one knee on the floor of the carriage. Calian moved his hand again. But Randel’s voice stopped that action.
“If you were the one to put my parents and my second child on the scales, you wouldn’t have come forward like this.”
The second one is my older brother, and I am the one who always calls me brother Randel. The person lying down is still alive, but he is standing there as if he is already dead and gone. At the same time, they are saying that they will just take a gamble and throw away any way to save the lying thing right away.
Plantz’s life and Randel’s minutes.
Instead of the clumsy youngest who couldn’t even do such an easy calculation, Landel, who completed the calculation well, opened his mouth again.
“It’s the price of a white rose. Say no more.”
Mithril scissors are difficult to calculate, so I offered to pay a few minutes in exchange for the ugly, withered rose. In this way, Randel’s hand went up, having set the price of Plantz’s life together.
Anyway, if he stays alive until the white roses bloom in the royal palace of Tensil, that stiff-headed bastard who looks exactly like someone else will either bow his stiff head or bend his stiff back. I think that only if that guy is alive will the youngest, who is giving off an inhuman energy, come to his senses.
Randel placed his hand on the arm of his only remaining relative, who had treated him the first time because there was no reason to step forward and save him, and the second time because he did not need to owe him his life.
A darker red light than before appeared in the hand.
It began to seep into Plantz’s body.
Calian, who was looking at that scene, lowered his head.
I bowed to Randel on behalf of someone stiff.
“......thank you.”
Randel conveyed the true value of those few minutes.
