Chapter 4. Until a proper hand was formed (3)

Yan was so surprised that his eyes almost popped out.

In fact, anyone would be surprised if a swooshing sound was heard and an unexpected person suddenly appeared before their eyes.

The reason I didn’t scream was largely due to the habits I had faithfully cultivated as a servant. Otherwise, I would have screamed and run out right away.

Moreover, since I immediately recognized who this man who suddenly appeared was, I even showed calmness by not pouring out the washing water I was holding on behalf of the maid who had sprained her wrist yesterday.

As a result, Jan felt very proud and was able to block the curtains in the bedroom where Calian was sleeping. And then he shouted in a whisper.

“Lord Manasil, what are you doing now?”

Of course, it was Alan who warped in front of Yan.

However, Alan’s expression seemed somewhat flushed. Alan, who looked as if he had just had an argument with someone, pointed toward the bedroom with his finger and asked.

“Is the prince there yet?”

“The prince’s condition right now… No, that’s not the problem!”

While we were talking, the maids came out from inside the bedroom curtains and stopped. He looked surprised because he didn’t know who Alan was. Without even having time to explain, Jan quickly dismissed the maids, locked the door, and dragged Alan into the bathroom on the other side of the bedroom. Meanwhile, he was holding a small basin filled with washing water in his hand. It was because I didn’t have the spirit to put it down.

“Please come this way first.”

The prince’s room was equipped with a bedroom, shower room, study, living room, toilet, and bathroom. There was only one thing missing, and that was the door.

It was created in preparation for an assassin’s invasion or various accidents. Jan, who was embarrassed because simply pulling down the curtains in the bathroom was not particularly soundproof, remembered who Alan was and said.

“Please write about being quiet.”

“hmm?”

Alan, who was looking at Jan blankly, seemed to understand something and snapped his fingers. And then I cast ‘Becoming Quiet’. Soon, a translucent film of Silent magic was seen forming around them.

Yan immediately opened his mouth.

“What kind of rude behavior is this?”

Jan wasn’t surprised that Alan unleashed magic with just a snap of his fingers. To Jan, the current Alan was just a ruthless person who broke into the room of our flower-like prince.

So whether or not the clothes Alan is wearing represent a 7th circle wizard. Whether what I just used was a chantless spell or a naked spell.

Since that thought was so obvious, Alan laughed and asked.

“Did you ask me to use magic to scold you?”

“I don’t want the prince to wake up.”

A situation where the prince’s servant scolds him for being rude when he comes to criticize King Lemain. Although Jan’s attitude was not very good, Alan responded, understanding it leniently as it was the result of him being faithful to his duties as a servant.

“They said that outsiders cannot enter the Chermil Palace without permission. I guess I haven’t heard anything from Lemain yet, so I couldn’t help it.”

“Are you saying you teleported or something because you didn’t have permission?”

Alan smiled and shook his head as if he were proud of himself.

“It’s warp. It’s a bit more difficult. I use some magic.”

Jan said, laughing along with him. Warp or Nabal.

“Get out.”

“You were going to wake him up anyway, weren’t you? Wait for me.”

Jan shook his head resolutely.

“No. We think you need to rest a little longer, so we’re heading back.”

Alan looked around as if he hadn’t heard anything.

Surrounded on all sides by black tiles mixed with gold dust, there was a huge black bathtub made of onyx stone. Alan said with sincere admiration.

“It’s an extravagant place. I understand that the old master told you to come to the palace by 9:30 and is now sleeping.”

“You’re old. You’re very lively.”

Jan muttered something loud.

Then, when Jan realized that the place he entered without thinking was Kalian’s very personal space, he was shocked and tried to say something. Then Alan, who read that expression, spoke quickly.

“If I leave here, I’m out of magic range. Is it okay for me to be noisy now?”

Jan looked unfazed, but stopped pushing Alan away. Instead, he spoke strongly again.

“If you have something to say, I will tell it to you after you wake up. But you shouldn’t wait.”

“I came to see the prince’s condition. So what can I do if I have nothing to say? That doesn’t mean I can talk to you about the prince’s condition.”

Yan closed his mouth at those words. Of course, I heard that Calian met Alan. I also heard that he became a priest.

However, I did not hear whether Alan was aware of Kalyan’s physical condition. Calian had said he would seek help from a wizard, but he wasn’t sure if he’d already told Alan that. So I decided to pretend not to know for now.

“Status. What are you talking about?”

Allen, who was watching Yan continue to disobey him, eventually took out the card he had been trying to save.

“You. You know me, right?”

“… Of course I know. I heard it from the prince.”

Alan laughed wickedly.

Then he brought his face closer to Yan and spoke in a low voice.

“Little elephant. Don’t be so picky. I asked you if you knew me.”

Jan’s eyes opened.

Jan was not unaware that people called Siegfried an elephant. So I was even more surprised than when I saw Alan suddenly appear, so I dropped the basin containing the wash water.

– Clink!

Water splashed everywhere. At the same time, Alan snapped his fingers.

A translucent shield was created in front of Alan to prevent water from splashing onto his clothes. Of course, there was no thought of extending the shield range to Yan, so Yan ended up like a wet mouse. Somehow, too much water poured out to be called wash water, and the corner of Alan’s mouth twitched as if he was holding back laughter, but the surprised Jan didn’t notice.

“how……?”

“Didn’t you come to Riverne with your father’s elephant a few years ago? If you pretend to be someone else just because you’ve grown up, don’t you think I might not recognize you?”

At that moment, the words that Sleiman said passed by Yan’s ears.

– My son is so innocent that no one would suspect anything.

Yan’s eyes shook greatly.

‘No! I got caught! Even though he had grown so much, he was caught right away!’

Maybe it was because of his unconcealed cuteness, Alan’s ghost-like memory and quick wit, or Jan’s bronze-colored curly hair and blue-grey eyes.

Or whether it was due to the injection of a certain sword master who had met a wizard friend late at night two nights ago and was extremely drunk, only Alan could know.

I couldn’t understand why he was hiding it, but anyway, Alan, who had taken advantage of Jan’s great weakness, showed his teeth and smiled.

“Wake me up. Sleeping won’t get you better, so don’t waste time.”

Finally, after about 5 minutes, Kalian heard Jan’s bell and woke up. Then, seeing Yan’s entire body soaked in water, he was surprised and asked.

“Is it a festive surprise?”

“…I’m sorry, prince.”

“You’re not crying, are you?”

“I’m not crying.”

Calian couldn’t hold back any longer and burst out laughing. Yan looked a little relieved after seeing that. I even forgot to tell him that Alan was outside.

“You seem to be feeling better now, my prince.”

Kalian’s face when he returned from meeting Alan on the first day of the festival was truly a sight to behold. This was largely due to the fact that they were attacked instead of by Allen at the end of the forced march.

If Jan had known that, he might have baptized Alan with water as soon as he saw him.

“Because I just slept all day.”

“I don’t know if I should say it’s thanks to Prince Planz, but I’m glad.”

As originally planned, the schedule required a meeting with a congratulatory envoy.

However, Lemain found out that Planz had been drinking and went out to the square. Although the Kairis nobles knew that Plants was not like that for a day or two, the envoys, including the elves, did not.

Therefore, Lemain, worried that Planz would make a mistake in front of them, did not invite the princes to the meeting with the delegation.

“Yes. Yesterday’s schedule was cleared, so that’s a good thing.”

Thanks to this, Kalian enjoyed a long, deep sleep and the good fortune of resting. Jan, who was thinking about Plantz, who had unintentionally helped Calian, delivered some news.

“I heard that His Majesty has issued a ban on alcohol to Prince Planz.”

“Prohibition?”

“I heard that you told me not to bring alcohol to Prince Planz and only give him drinks when he drinks.”

If Lemain even said something like that, it seems like there were quite a few voices of concern.

Calian said with a smile.

“I won’t eat that much. I drink to the point of getting drunk even though I have a blessing.”

“So it looks like Prince Planz’s servants are very worried.”

Kalian nodded as his eyes turned to the curtains that blocked off the bedroom. Only then did Jan think of Alan and speak in a low voice.

“Ah, Lord Manasil is waiting for you now.”

“Master?”

I was surprised. For some reason, I didn’t open the curtains.

Even though he couldn’t see anything, Alan looked straight at Calian’s face and waved one hand. Calian hurriedly bowed his head towards Alan to show respect. Jan, who was looking at that with a displeased expression, said.

“I had to check something urgent with the prince, so I had to come here. I’m sorry.”

“Yes. Good job.”

Calian, who had been considering the correlation between Yan’s appearance and the teacher’s visit for a moment, eventually nodded, unable to come up with an answer. After that, I first wore simple clothes. This is because I had to change into my uniform after lunch for the afternoon event.

After all preparations were completed, the curtain was lifted.

“I will tell you to prepare for the two of you to eat together.”

“Ah. I’m done. I have to go right away.”

After Jan and the maids went outside, Calian was finally able to talk to Alan.

Calian bowed once again to Alan, who had waited for him for a long time. Then Alan waved his hand and said.

“Don’t do that anymore. It’s over.”

“Yes, Master.”

Calian asked, sitting down in front of Alan.

“What brings you here?”

It was true that she had told him the right time to come see Lemain in the morning, but it was a question that came up because she did not know that he would come to see her as well.

Alan took out a pouch from his arms and handed it to Calian.

“Don’t forget to take one every day.”

It was a red, unadorned pouch. When I opened it, there were a lot of translucent pearl-like beads inside.

“What is this?”

“There are two problems the prince has right now. One is that mana cannot be used.”

Instead of answering, Alan said this and held out two fingers.

Calian flinched and leaned back. It was an instinctive avoidance. Alan said with a grin.

“It’s enough to check once. Don’t worry, I won’t waste any more mana.”

Do you know that I was sick all day thanks to you?

Calian laughed bitterly.

“And another thing is that the prince’s body is drying out right now.”

“Mana and physical condition as well. I didn’t say a single word, so it’s surprising how you know so well.”

Alan, who answered by simply nodding his head, asked,

“The prince has the power of Sispanian blessing.”

“Yes. you’re right. It’s the power that gives you healing power and increases your affinity for magic.”

“Have you ever thought that it’s a rather strange combination? Healing power and magic.”

I knew a little about it.

Kalian, recalling the memory of the old Kalyan that came to mind when he had a similar thought, answered,

“I thought that the power of blessing was ultimately the power to strengthen the heart. I did. Because the source of mana and life are both in the heart.”

“Yes. you’re right. Cispanian gave a blessing that strengthened the strength of the heart. If so, it would seem that the prince’s healing powers would have disappeared as well, is that correct? Now that I think about it, there are three problems.”

In Calian’s mind, he remembered the day he got hurt by a knife thrown by Plantz. In the end, it took two full weeks for the wound to completely heal. He had to hide the wound for fear of making strange noises

. Calian, remembering the hard work he had put in for this, opened his mouth.

“Yes. That too is gone. Then, does it mean you have a heart problem?”

Calian looked at the bag of medicine in his hand.

He seemed to be wondering if it was medicine to fix his heart, so Alan shook his head.

“It’s not a cure.”

“Then this is it. “What is it?”

Allen clicked his tongue and said,

“Prince, your heart is not broken or your mana is blocked, so don’t worry about that. Instead, when you pick something up and eat it, make sure it’s done properly.”

Kalian’s eyes turned cold.

“…Is it poison?”
