Chapter 85. Meng (4)
Plantz said.
There are only three things in this world that should not be touched.
My younger brother who skipped meals, my younger brother who is unwell, and.
“I thought you would say you would go to Whitlin with me.”
“why.”
“Because you’ve always been worried every time something like this happens.”
“Is it my brother that I should be worried about now?”
“What do you mean by that?”
“My brother said he was hungry, but he was so unwell that he forgot about it.”
The somewhat stone is my younger brother.
To be precise, he is my younger brother who is ‘of course always round, but a little more round than that.’
Anyway, the point is that you shouldn’t touch Calian, who became extremely ill after hearing that his new subordinate, who was once his fiancé, was in danger, so much so that he forgot his hunger.
Therefore, as soon as Plantz heard Eila’s request for help, he attacked Narzan. When he went to see them, he threatened them, saying, ‘I found out that all the nobles in Whitlin are exiled elves, and I’m very worried whether I should tell this to your majesty or think it’s just a pipe dream.’ After negotiating, tear the forest path from Danu. I did not follow Kalian, who disappeared after being rescued.
Of course it didn’t wither.
I didn’t pickle anything because I was worried about my younger brother.
...... no.
In any case, it is said to have remained resolutely well.
In the city of elves, with my brother’s loyal subordinate and that person who just happened to live in the room above me.
“You didn’t go either. To Hina.”
“Now that the prince is gone, Hina will be safe too. And I can’t just leave this place, right?”
“Isn’t it the same? I have things I need to get back from the elder. For what?”
I didn’t feel the need to grab the leash of my younger brother who was going to show his teeth to Zeon, but there were many other reasons why I didn’t follow him to Whitlin.
Calian and Flanz were unable to ask Narzan about the elven assassin. The same goes for the story of Whitlin and Freya Freyr. In addition, the stolen Harpy’s magic stone has not yet been returned, and it has not been discovered why the elves covet the magic stone. There was so much left to do that we couldn’t just go back together.
Additionally, there was the reason that Estina and the people living above Iris did not speak as fast as Raven.
And one more thing.
“And. I promised not to overdo it.”
Not even half a day has passed since I agreed with my friend who told me to stop worrying about my younger brother and not measuring the front and back. It didn’t occur to me to break my promise already.
“Have you talked to the prince?”
“not.”
“Then”
“With the king.”
“...Is that so?”
“I did.”
“If that’s the reason, I’m glad.”
“I thought it was something.”
“I misunderstood that you were concerned that it would be a burden to the prince.”
Kyrie put it nicely like this, but in the end, it meant ‘I thought I didn’t follow because I was afraid I would be a burden to Calian.’
“no.”
Kirie seemed to care about what Plants said before coming to the city of elves. ‘Don’t worry, you’ll fall again,’ he said, getting angry. Therefore, Plantz himself said no, but he must have been worried that such thoughts might be why he did not follow Calian.
“If it’s not a burden, what is it?”
So, as I was about to give Kyrie one more answer, I heard Randel’s words. Plantz immediately calmed down the corners of his eyes that were about to frown and opened his mouth.
“It’s my brother.”
“That’s why I consider it a burden.”
Look at that. Because you, who live above me, think like that, I can’t even ask my brother to give up his life for just a few minutes. So, stop acting like you’re a burden or anything, and just reflect.
Plantz, who didn’t even feel the need to say what he was saying out loud, lifted the item he had left on the other side of Randel. And he quietly set it down in a place where it could be easily seen by the occupants of the upper floor who were sitting far away.
Sinastar. It was Planz’s sword.
“It’s my sword.”
“I know.”
“Callian gave it to me.”
Are you bragging?
While you only received mithril scissors, I received a fancy knife.
Randel, who, even with his ability to understand meaning, could not figure out the intention of the downstairs resident who suddenly held out a knife, remained silent. Plantz continued.
“The dark side. The price is not to reveal Calian’s secrets.”
“You made a useless promise.”
“... It was a secret until then.”
It’s a secret that both dogs and cows seem to know by now.
On the day I met Chase when he came to Kairis, it was Calian who gave him that precious sword as payment for keeping his secret. Now, it’s a secret that only the dog-like Yan and the cow-like Lemain don’t know, but until then, it was a really secret secret.
“I’ll take it into account.”
“The bright side is that Kalian gave me what he received from Danu when we first came here.”
“So. Why are you talking about that?”
“When I received the bright sword, I did not pay for it. There was no need to pay for it. I know that when I received the dark sword, I was right, but when I received the light sword, I was not.”
Randel’s eyes fell on Plantz.
“If you feel sorry for Calian, don’t even think about paying the price, just repay him. If you think of him as a brother.”
Randel, who was looking at Plantz with an unreadable face, turned his head. And I stared at the dark sea in the distance for a while.
I opened my mouth as I listened to the sound of the waves, which was completely different from the sound of the clock ticking that filled the room, which seemed constant but not regular at all. I gave my answer to a resident of the same building who gave me something that sounded like nagging, worrying about my younger sibling, bragging about a gift, or even advice.
“This is my first time hearing it. It’s not bad to hear.”
I don’t hate the sound of waves when I hear it for the first time.
Plantz, who had decided to understand Randel’s words in that sense, responded.
“I didn’t want to hear it with my brother.”
“Don’t worry. I won’t be any different from you.”
“Fortunately, the.”
“I see.”
Kane answered Aela, who only asked this question.
“I heard it from Prince Calian’s senior attendant. You said there was a secret passage in the basement of the villa. We just have to get out there and move invisibility.
“Wizards alone are dangerous if they are connected to Xeon.”
“Even if I can’t use magic, I know how to run away, Lord Hill. Besides...”
Kane, who was trailing off as if thinking about something, added further explanation.
“I saw that Sir Bridget’s magic bullet worked. It’s difficult right now, but I think we’ll be able to find a way to deal with their magic blocking by the time we get to the territory in about two days.”
The Balkan knight who had been listening to Kane opened his mouth. But the voices did not continue.
This is because outside the window, Zeon’s soldiers, surrounding several wizards as if they were escorting them, could be seen approaching again.
While a frowning Siona was looking out the window, Kane, who had relayed to the driver what he would later report to Arsene, moved on. The idea was to get out without wasting time.
“It seems dangerous.”
Ayla, looking at the back, muttered slowly.
“Can I just protect the three attendants?”
But then I heard Siona’s voice like this.
Ayla turned her head in that direction and answered.
“The villa was abandoned anyway. We just need to protect those three and the drivers here.”
“Then I will be there, so go with those wizards.”
“I?”
“okay.”
Eila looked at Siona without another word.
The investigation into the harpy was also a task that Calian entrusted to Aela. So, regardless of whether to follow them or protect Yan here, it was a reason for Aela to step forward. But instead of nodding, Aila opened her mouth.
“If you don’t have me, I know what you will do to those knights and the people below.”
“Do you not trust me?”
“that’s right.”
“Humans say they are subordinates to their superiors. I am sure you know what they mean.”
“Don’t be offended.”
“I understand. I have experienced what elves are like.”
“Elf or whatever. I only trust my master anyway.”
Is it to clear up misunderstandings or not?
Anyway, Siona nodded, clearly understanding Aila’s words without feeling offended. Then, with his back to the window, he turned back and walked steadily in front of Aila.
“Then I’ll go, so you can stay here.”
“...... ah.”
I guess he didn’t say this out of concern for the safety of the wizards trying to leave this place. Aila realized this and laughed out loud.
“I decided to help the prince because of Zeon.”
“Yes, that’s right.”
Siona decided that if the nearby territory was really related to Zeon, she must find out the information contained therein.
“You are more agile and quick-witted than me. Even without you, I can protect the humans here, but I’m not sure if you can either. If I follow the wizards, I’m sure they will be saved, but I’m not sure I can get the information. So. “It’s about making better offers to each other.”
However, since he did not intend to ‘behave like an elf’ by only focusing on Zeon’s work and abandoning this place, he asked Aela to accompany him on Siona’s behalf to take care of the wizards’ safety and find out information about them.
– Kukung
At that time, a slight vibration was transmitted.
Eila slightly turned her head and looked out the window.
“I think you’re thinking of blowing a hole in the building. Is that okay?”
“No problem.”
“Okay then. Let’s go.”
Eila nodded.
Anyway, I ran out of daggers and used up all my magic bullets. My physical strength was almost at its limit. In a situation where I didn’t know how much longer I could endure, it would have been better to break away and do something else rather than become a burden. Even if we leave here, Calian will come to the villa anyway and then we can help Siona.
“Take care of your servants. If something goes wrong, you’ll be in big trouble.”
“Prince Calian’s servant is also the son of my friend. Don’t worry.”
“all right.”
Aila’s feet move busily, showing no other worries. It was towards the secret passageway that Jan had heard about in advance. Because I had to follow the wizards.
– Taaat!
Eila held on to the railing of the stairs and jumped down with light movements. And then I walked into a dark hallway without any lights.
The sculpture placed on the sixth pillar.
I lifted it slightly and pressed the base.
-......Srumbling...
Then the wall moved with a very small sound. A gap was created that was barely big enough for one person to pass through.
I heard four people’s footsteps moving away in the narrow passage. The sound of a robe fluttering is also heard. Aila also moved her feet following the sound.
How long did it run like that?
A bright light began to appear at the end of the increasingly narrow passage.
It was a welcome light, but there are always pitfalls. Eila, who did not relax, drew her sword and moved towards the light.
The darkness clears and vision becomes brighter.
Eila immediately raised her head and let out a short sigh.
“...I knew it would be like this.”
Four wizards.
You can see the white robes they are wearing.
Zeon’s razor-sharp blade can be seen surrounding them.
– Slut!
– Kwasik!
A red blade is visible.
and.
“Ah...”
I see light purple eyes.
“Thank goodness, Aila.”
Nice to meet you.
A truly welcome voice was heard.
