Chapter 489

Chapter 86. Greed (2)

Kalyan is not careful.

I don’t know what the evaluation of those around him was, but that’s how Kalian saw himself.

But in fact, in one way it was correct, and in another way it was completely wrong.

As for Serenti, who was said to wake up within this year, he didn’t pay much attention, saying, ‘I don’t know if he wakes up or not, so whatever happens happens’, or he said that since he was in the 5th circle and was worried, he should go to the Auror before a bigger problem arises again. In a situation where he had to solve the Mana conflict problem, he went into bed thinking things like, “I had a good day today, so this was a good day,” or he said he didn’t like it when Plants got pointed at him, so he went to Plantz. If you look at a group of people who kick the door of a conference room while disguised, it is true that they do not have the slightest sense of detail.

But today, I worry about what color ribbon my Hina has tied her hair with, check to see if there is any dirt on her small shoes, or worry about how many pieces of ice cream she eats a day these days, and I have trouble sleeping at night. So, on earth, I am my Hina. I wonder if there is anyone more attentive than this, considering the amount of time he thinks about what to give her on her birthday or the fact that he notices at a glance that Hina has grown as tall as a grain of barley.

Putting aside many of those details, if you just look at what happened this time, it is the same.

‘Wait a minute, I’ll ask you guys for a favor, Kirie.’

In any case, wouldn’t it be difficult to be attentive to Calian’s knight, Kyrie, seeing him leave her alone like this every time?

On days when he went out suddenly like that, he often came back with more than one hole hanging from his body, so it must be said that Kalyan is absolutely not careful about his own body.

‘If by any chance Danu touches you while I’m away, take Brother Randel and get out of the elf city right away.’

But like this.

‘If Danu gets dragged in again, I can just find him on my own, but if Danu causes trouble again, I think I’ll have to worry a lot. Then, the elves might take Brother Randel hostage in an attempt to risk my ankles, so go out in advance. ‘Once the situation is resolved, I’ll go find it.’

Considering that he guessed in advance that he might be in a bad state for various reasons and pointed out what to do when that happened, he had a very meticulous personality.

– Rustling.

So, is Kalyan truly attentive or not?

Kirie, who had been thinking for a moment about a problem that was difficult to understand no matter how much she thought about it, held out her hand. He then handed a blanket to Randel, who was sitting quietly on a rock.

“Please stay a moment. I will prepare a meal for you.”

“Leave it. I’m not hungry yet.”

The bread I had packed with me when I left Whitlin was in the wizard’s bag hanging on Raven’s saddle. Even though it was brought by a Balkan wizard in the lord’s castle through preservation magic, Randel refused.

Of course, it may not be to his liking, but Randel had been eating moderately tasty bread and roughly grilled meat without a single sign of discomfort the entire time he had been here. So, it wouldn’t be like I would skip it because I don’t like cold bread anymore.

Therefore, Kirie, who looked at Randel for a moment, offered bread once more.

“You even skipped lunch.”

“Eat. I’ll wait. I’m done.”

Kirie, whose daily routine included starving for a day or two, shook her head. Anyway, I don’t even think about eating because I’m worried about Calian...

‘...... Ah.’

At the end of his thoughts, as if he realized something, Kirie looked away from putting back the bread he had taken out and looked at Randel.

“Are you worried about you and the prince?”

It was a question hinted at. But Randel just lowered his eyes without answering. Then he turned his head, looked around at the forest everywhere, and opened his mouth.

Kirie continues with words that are unrelated to her question.

“The birds’ cries are different from any other day.”

Kirie asked, hiding her surprise at these words.

“Do you hear the birds crying differently?”

“You made an unusual noise today.”

A different sound from yesterday.

Randel, who has lived in the royal palace his entire life, seems to have learned in that short period of time the difference between the normal chirping of birds and their warning calls.

I guess I should say that all of my brothers are quick learners.

Then why did you learn nothing for such a long time?

Kirie put aside her sad thoughts and answered.

“Yes. There was a commotion a little while ago somewhere far away.”

“Did the elves come out of the city to look for us?”

“I couldn’t leave this place and go far. However, from what I could see from the vague sounds of words and the atmosphere, it seemed like there was a problem in their city.”

“I guess the youngest has returned.”

“Yes. I think so.”

Randel nodded slightly.

Kirie, who was quietly watching the scene, opened her mouth.

“They are also elves. There must be someone with as sharp an ear as mine. It looks like it will rain soon, so it would be better to rest for a while and go a little deeper.”

“I don’t think it’s that dangerous.”

Randel’s deep blue eyes turned to Kyrie’s back. The clear valley water passed between the rocks, pooled for a while, and then flowed down again.

The place where Kalian, who had received Sinastar from Danu, gave it to Plantz.

I was currently taking a break with my back to the valley. Since elves have good hearing, the location was chosen to find a place where the sounds of horses and small conversations could be hidden.

“The surroundings are already noisy, so I don’t think the sound will spread this much.”

“Instead, it is difficult for me to hear their voices too.”

“Even if they are captured, will they be able to harm me?”

“The prince thought it was dangerous.”

Randel nodded.

Then, he walked leisurely toward the yellow flowers blooming in the gap between the pure white rocks and said,

“The best place to hide from elves is in a noisy place. Don’t they know that? If they really wanted to find it, they would have looked in the valley first.”

Small flowers that are not the laprania you get on your birthday, the adinia you get for your recovery, the pansies and chrysanthemums you plant every season, or Annerusia. Several yellow flowers, which may have clear names but which Randel does not know, are swaying gently in the wind.

The flower that blooms at the end of a short stem the length of a finger is very small. Therefore, Kirie’s voice reached Randel, who looked down for a while at the appearance of the flower that he could not even dare to smell.

“Are you saying they have no intention of capturing Prince Randel?”

“I too am the prince of this country.”

I hope you don’t know that.

It would not have been because the elves didn’t know that that they were doing such outrageous things to Calian and Plantz.

So I was about to talk about not letting go of my heart by believing in that one thing, but Randel continued again.

“Danu’s origin is in this forest, and Danu cannot move his first roots. In the end, Danu has no choice but to continue to stay in Kairis. I am not so worried that the elves will harm me and turn their backs on Kairis. “Say nothing.”

“I heard that Danu can spread its roots to other places. Isn’t Danu’s stem and the city of the elves located in the sea of the southern Great Desert?”

“no.”

Randel spoke with a clear tone.

If not, there might be a crack somewhere.

As I walked and walked, I took out the Sinastar and swung it around, and I also stretched out my hand and felt around. It was very different from the day I sat there, doing nothing, covering my ears, lowering my head, and waiting. Of course, it was all the more possible because the ‘last day of Secretia’ had not unfolded, but it was still very different from the day when I was first dragged into Danu.

“I saw you briefly, and Lucy and Anne are said to be well. I won’t be visiting you much, and I’m doing well at Wilhelm House. Don’t worry too much.”

It was definitely different, but I got hurt again.

Still, I bring up the topic of cats.

“Still, I have to go back quickly so I don’t forget my brother’s face. By now, I should have checked out Brother Randel’s territory and everything there, but it’s too late. I tried to look for some smart people, but there’s no progress in that either. As expected, it’s not working as expected. “I think it will be difficult to proceed with this.”

Did you think that if you heard about cats, you would be interested in that? So, if you change your mind, are you hoping that you will move on as you say?

If you’re making such a fuss about wanting to get over it.

“Anyway, I have to go back before the festivities on His Highness’s birthday start. So hurry up a little bit...”

“Speak up. I won’t blame you.”

Do you think that things will go as you want?

“Why are you hurt?”

“I’m being rude to Danu.”

At the answer that finally came back, Plantz let out a long sigh.

I expected Kalian’s stomach to turn upside down like last time. There was no way Danu would give back what he was holding as soon as he faced Kalyan.

But no matter how much I looked at it now, it didn’t look like it was hurt because it was using all its strength. It looks like he was attacked by someone.

“I thought it was Whitlin.”

“Nothing much happened on that side. There was some process, but Xeon eventually stepped down and Master is with us now.”

“So. So you’re saying that Danu attacked directly?”

“I knew how to do it. I was surprised too.”

I found out only after Danu’s branch got stuck in my shoulder.

Calian added with a grin as if it was no big deal, then moved his left hand and pushed back the flowing bluish-silver hair. I got used to this look and thought that if I went back, I might make eye contact with Kirie and look down at the peas without realizing it.

“...... so.”

Calian, who had been pacing his feet, stopped for a moment.

The wind in the forest ruffles my long, brushed hair again. I swiped it again, looked around, and raised my head. I looked up at the overcast sky.

Fighting and fighting.

Slow raindrops begin to fall one by one. As if he felt Calian’s gaze.

“I’ll tell you about Danuwa after I find Brother Randel.”

After a while, a low voice, like a dirt road in a forest getting wet with rain, was addressed to Plants. Plantz, who was standing together, nodded.

“okay.”

“yes.”

“Anywhere else.”

“it’s okay.”

“Truth be told.”

“There are no serious injuries.”

“Deceived.”

“I’m hungry.”

This means that the speed is not comfortable.

Now I know very well that it’s the words of a guy who can’t lie that he’s not okay, but he wants to eat because he’s hungry.

“no.”

“It’s okay.”

“... To Hina.”

“No. I’ll eat it tomorrow. Don’t tell Hina about it.”

“okay.”

“yes.”

At the end of the answer, I feel a refreshing magical energy hovering slightly before dissipating. Of course, it was clean.

I knew he wasn’t going to stop even if I told him that the smell of blood didn’t matter, so I just left it alone. And I moved my feet before the rain poured down further.

I followed Kirie’s words and walked for a while, thinking that she would have gone towards the valley. After visiting the valley where I had once received Sinasta, I climbed a little further.

A place where you can avoid the rain.

Until you see an empty space underneath a large rock.

– Jump, jump, jump!

Calian found Kyrie and Randel in the distance and quickly moved on. After hearing the footsteps of those who had come, two people were seen walking out.

After walking towards them, Calian looked at Randel’s face for a while and then greeted him.

“I’m home.”

Randel nodded and Calian added a word.

“Were you worried?”

A question I asked without much thought.

Saying something without expecting an answer.

Randel opened his mouth at those words.

“Yes. I was worried.”

Called.

Calian was silent for a moment.

Then he smiled and answered.

“yes.”

Hey Demirea.

They say it’s because I don’t know much.

I was wondering if you would know.

Peas take a lot of work. It continues to wither. It goes on and on and on and on and on, it withers away, if you look away for a moment it withers away, and if you forget it, it withers away again without fail. If you try to relax, it will wither again and again. There are many times when it can’t wilt and ends up pickled. There really are a lot of them. But corn isn’t like that.

Does corn actually grow like this on its own?
