Chapter 91. Not pearls, but mithril (5)
– Tuk!
The last page of the long report he had written frantically is placed on top of the pile of documents. Plantz, who received what was said, looked through the neatly written text, from the first line of the first page to the last line of the last page, with not a single disorder, and then signed.
Of course, it didn’t end with just Plantz’s signature. We need confirmation from Arsene and Allan, and eventually even Lemain will look into the same thing.
“There will be no problem.”
“know.”
okay. There will be no problem.
Isn’t it the same for Kalian who spent a long time buried in reports? He was said to have served as both the king and the king’s bodyguard and led the king’s personal guard, and while he personally managed so many birds, he had to spare time to focus on himself and Kirie’s sword skills and even drink alcohol.
Where can that incredible experience go?
“Better than the crazy blue-haired wizard.”
Calian laughed slightly. Then he put down the pen he had been unable to put down for hours and squeezed and unclenched his white hand a few times. Plantz, who saw that, spoke as if he had not forgotten.
“You’re letting go just because you wrote a few words. Someone as good as a sword master.”
“Wow. He said he was going to meet Sir Hertz and Master, but he left midway and didn’t show up until I finished manipulating the documents on my own.”
The words that came out, saying it was unfair, stopped midway. That’s why those words from the unfamiliar pea were somehow familiar to me.
“...... ah.”
Calian made a short sound as if he had realized something and looked away. He then looked around at the piles of documents on the desk and the nightstand next to it and spoke in a soft voice.
“Brother, I’m sure you didn’t intentionally not come so that I could work alone.”
“On my way back, I only saw Hina briefly. I guess I should return the earrings.”
“Of course, now. Your brother and your younger brother were working so hard, and when you met our Hina, you realized once again what a good place the world is to live in.”
“You’re still barking well.”
“No. Most of the time, he barks, but when it comes to Hina, he always talks like a human.”
Plantz looked speechless, but Calian opened his mouth again.
“I apologize, too.”
“What?”
“I thought you were disappointed. I said it was a few documents.”
“...Why did my stubborn brother suddenly change his mind?”
I guess I was really sad. He tried to kill me, cursed me with his eyes and sword, and didn’t accept my apology.
“It’s not that I changed my mind, it’s that I was losing strength at the tip of my brother’s knife. I didn’t mean it.”
“If you don’t think about anything else during sparring, you won’t be able to rush in properly. I can see you are about to turn, so then.”
“Did you do that again?”
“I did. Again.”
“I’ll be careful.”
“sun.”
“yes.”
“Thank you for your hard work. Your handwriting. You too.”
of course.
You wrote so many letters with your precious hands.
“yes.”
Calian grinned and nodded, taking back the fake reports in his thin, pale hands and saying,
“And it’s not your fault that you got hurt today, so don’t worry about it.”
“I know. I won’t use it.”
“Yes. So how is Hina now? She doesn’t seem to be okay though.”
“It’s not okay. Don’t show it.”
“... I guess so. What about you, brother?”
“Me too. You.”
“Me too. Not really.”
Tuk-tuk-tuk.
Calian dropped the thick stack of documents on the desk several times and adjusted the corners. Plantz, who was looking at that scene, said as if he was throwing something out.
“I have beef jerky.”
There is a panacea.
Calian burst out laughing.
“I was already planning to ask. Did you have salt today too?”
“No. I was going to leave it to Lucy and Anne to bring it to you.”
“Are you really thinking about giving me Lucy and Anne’s things?”
“You said you weren’t in a good mood.”
“Then, instead of receiving more hate from Lucy, I can eat beef jerky without salt and feel better. Then, what about you, brother?”
“After Fabian, we’ll spar again. Properly.”
“Okay, I understand.”
“Whitlin.”
“I haven’t met you yet because I’m writing a report.”
“Give me back the bracelet. I’m going.”
“It’s dangerous. I will meet you.”
“I think Whitlin will be in danger if you meet her. She’s always angry at Whitlin.”
Kalian, who thought about this response for a moment, nodded his head. And he said, handing back the disguise bracelet that he had received back from Plantz at the training center a little while ago.
“Also, you cannot open the prison door wide and bravely go in. I don’t want to break the promise I made to Hina. Whitlin must be saved.”
“Don’t do anything that will get you caught again.”
“Yes. Anyway, it won’t be hard to convince you. If you somehow go to the palace, there is a chance of meeting Gray Brissen. Just remember to be careful.”
“okay.”
“Anyway, I want to meet you soon.”
“Who else? Whitlin says I’m meeting him.”
“No. Rashid Briesen.”
“why.”
“When it’s time to go to Fabian, I keep wondering. Why Fabian?”
Plantz looked at Calian. Then Kalian shrugged his shoulders and said:
“I understand that Rashid is offending me. I understand why he touched Whit Lin, but it’s disturbing that he suddenly went to Fabian after running away from almost getting killed.”
“Are you saying that the target you are reaching for is not right?”
“Yes. I thought he would come running back to Whitlin right away. I thought he was a guy who would feel better if he ruined the wheat field if he couldn’t get revenge. But he was so generous that he left the wheat field alone and not the pearls he had always wanted. “You’re acting like you’re suddenly interested in Mithril. I don’t even know.”
“I guess I plan to meet at the end.”
“Well... Anyway, I can’t see your face, so I’m still worried. I’m wondering if they’re trying to isolate you, or there may be another reason.”
Planz took a slow breath for a moment and then opened his mouth.
“I was wondering if Rashid Briesen was using Adelia to deliberately divert attention to Fabian.”
“yes.”
“How about you go to Seleiana Palace? I don’t think you’ll move away from me on your own right now.”
“Then what about you, brother?”
“To Fabian as planned.”
After hearing this, Calian nodded his head as if there was no room for concern. As if he had been thinking something similar.
“Yes. Then, if you go to Fabian with the rest of the party.”
– Prince.
“I... first go to Sereia.”
– I just received a call from Sir Ronansite.
“But prince.”
Do you have any doubts that this is the moment of alarm? After thinking this, Kirie opened her mouth once again. But then.
– Rumble!
“It’s time to wake up. Prince Randel.”
The words were conveyed as if the voice in Kirie’s heart was heard. It was Siona who disappeared out the window, saying to look outside for a moment.
– ......clutter.
There was a clang of her chains against the light black armor Dmirea wore. Kirie, who was looking into Siegfried’s distinctive blue-grey eyes revealed above the black mask that covered most of her face, pointed out the door and asked in a low voice.
“The guard knights sent by the lord’s representative do not appear to be agitated. If they are alert, are you saying that they are part of the same group as those who invaded the castle?”
“No. That man, who I think is Varzian, has now raised his sword. He did not rebel.”
After saying this, Siona loosened her blonde-colored curly hair and tied it back, speaking quickly.
“The lord’s agent here doesn’t like the crown prince, but he doesn’t seem to be foolish. He said he personally went out to deal with the people who surrounded the VIP room building from front to back.”
“The black armored troops that were said to be gathering outside the outer castle have already arrived here.”
“No. I think they are Siegfried’s knights, not enemies. I heard that Siegfried’s Ronansite sent a letter to the lord’s agent. I wonder if the lord’s agent can trust Siegfried and ask for support, or join the same forces as the men who came into the castle. “They were considering whether they should be on guard together.”
Siona said this while pointing to her face.
“That’s why Siegfried, the Honest Shield, has no reason to covet other territories or the crown prince’s head. If you want to save your crown prince, I’m on my way to tell you to let him in quickly.”
After secretly saying that he would quietly check the situation and come back, the Sword Master confidently appeared in front of the lord’s agent, Barzian, urged him to trust him, and secretly returned through the window, smiling proudly.
Whatever the method, it wasn’t a wrong move. Randel nodded. And he looked out the window and said:
“So. Who are they?”
Those who broke into the sealed castle.
While pointing to other knights in black armor.
“It’s Xeon. There are people who use red aurors.”
“Is this Dayrn’s army?”
“maybe.”
“Do you know how we got here so quickly?”
Then Siona took a long breath and looked at Kirie. Then she frowned slightly and asked.
“Is it true that Mother Tree really let go of her hold on them?”
“...Does it seem like the path to the forest has been opened?”
“Other than that, I can’t think of anything else. I heard that they came pouring out of a hunting ground inside the castle. If not, that white-haired wizard. He moved through space with Rashid Briesen, so if he can move several people, it could have been his doing. ”
Kirie frowned at her with a similar expression on her face. And she thought about whether to mention another possibility that just occurred to her, and then closed it again. she is with him
– Kwaaaaang!
There was a loud noise.
The chandelier hanging from the high ceiling swayed and reflected the light outside the window. The flames rise further and acrid smoke begins to rise.
Zeon’s troops have arrived, and the most important thing here is, of course, Randel. If Randel, who was pretending to be the crown prince, gets hurt, the situation spirals out of control for him. Of course, even more so if more accidents occur.
“Prince Randel.”
“okay.”
“Whatever the reason, Prince Randel must not be harmed.”
I didn’t think too deeply about the complexities of not knowing whether it was for Kalian’s sake or the relationship between Kairis and Tensil. A guy who has healing powers but doesn’t even know how to properly hold a sword should be kept alive for now. That’s all I thought.
Kirie, who was looking at the light green eyes that were submerged in the red outside the window, quickly stretched out her hand.
– Sweet!
He then took the bracelet from Randel’s wrist. He didn’t seem to have time to explain further to the stubborn prince, so he did so.
Kirie, looking at her golden hair and deep blue eyes, put the bracelet on her wrist. Then, he took out a long black robe from the wizard’s pocket he kept in his arms and handed it to Randel. As Kirie moved like that, the color of her hair began to gradually change to a light emerald color.
Her face wasn’t entirely made up. Since it was in the dark, if only the general appearance changed, everyone would be fooled.
“Your Majesty the Crown Prince uses a sword. If you even run now, your false appearance will be immediately revealed to anyone. I will take on your role.”
“Not a bad idea.”
– Tuk.
– click!
Siona’s voice and the sound of metal rang out together. Nancy continued as she took off her necklace and handed it to Randel.
“Few people know my face anyway. Since I don’t have the crooked sword I use, not only are there fewer people who will recognize me, but even if they do, there won’t be a big problem. So, just change into someone else’s appearance.”
So, should I wear Demirea’s hair color?
After thinking for a moment, Randel used the power of the necklace he had replaced the bracelet with. She changed her appearance to that of her servant Den, who was most familiar with short red-brown hair and light brown eyes. Those who know how to use a sword are said to be different from running, so it would be better than pretending to be Demirea for no reason.
“Wouldn’t it be better for you to take on the appearance of someone other than the second child?”
“Rashid Briesen knows that we have disguise supplies. If it is the Crown Prince we are targeting now, the servants and other knights here may die unexpectedly when the Crown Prince is nowhere to be found.”
After finishing the story, ‘Planz’ walked towards the secret passage and Sio Naga spoke to her.
“They already knew about the secret passage to Whitlin’s villa. It may not be safe just because it is here, so would it be okay to go there?”
“You will understand. However, since I have sharp ears and quick feet, it would be better for me to show off and run away. I will move carefully, so Lord Hill, please cover your ears and escape separately from Prince Randel. We will soon go to where Siegfried’s knights will be.”
I didn’t have time to ask if it was really okay.
– Kwaang kwaaaang!
Another binge occurred.
“Be careful.”
“yes.”
The glass window shakes violently. Instead of Randel, Siona, wearing a black robe, opened the window.
“I know that you are my youngest’s favorite knight. Please pay attention to your surroundings.”
Randel’s words are conveyed.
Kirie lowered her head slightly as she looked at her Randel, and Saishio Naga wrapped her arms around Randel’s waist tightly. And as she looked down at the very low floor, she said:
“Don’t worry. I won’t kill you.”
“Are you going to worry about that now?”
Two voices.
– Taaat!
Then, Siona, who has grabbed Randel, is heard throwing her body out of her window.
-Srumbling.......
A dark passage appeared. Kirie stepped into it without hesitation and quickly walked. And she moved the power of another bracelet.
– Hina.
– brother? What’s going on?
– It’s no big deal. It’s okay, so don’t be surprised and listen. Xeon has entered Fabian’s inner city. I’m avoiding Prince Randel and Lord Hill by staying away from them. Everyone is fine and everything is fine. So just tell the prince. If you come, you should be careful. Please tell me so. I’m fine, so don’t be surprised and don’t cry, Hina.
Tap, tap, tap!
– My brother won’t die. I’m not going anywhere without you. I don’t think like that anymore.
The sound of her short footsteps gradually decreases. It gradually decreases as if darkness is falling. And before long
– Don’t be scared, Hina. are you okay.
As if a shadow is hidden in the darkness, as if darkness seeps into the shadow. It quietly sank in and disappeared.
Then at some point.
– ...... Flash!
– Kaaaaang!
The sound that had disappeared echoes through the long passage. A spark created by a blade ignites in the darkness without a single light.
“This... isn’t the one that grew up in a greenhouse.”
“There is no such degradation in the world.”
“Well then. I am a king who no longer exists in the world.”
“Well, I see a bastard disappearing from the world.”
Two pairs of eyes filled with deep green and fresh green aimed at each other like blades.
– Kaga River! Kaaaaaaaa!
It gets tangled up.
