Reborn as the Enemy Prince
Chapter 268

Chapter 47. I’m pretty good at setting traps (4)

I could barely hear the sound of the teacup being put down.

The habits of being a servant that had become ingrained over the years were not easily abandoned even with my only younger brother in front of me.

“The color is pretty. It smells good too.”

The reason why I bring up this story after drinking tea is obvious. Either the car is really good, or I don’t have much to say, or it’s hard to get anything to say.

“It’s an evening primrose.”

A flower that blooms under the moonlight with petals that were carefully folded during the day. Even when Jan was told that the tea was made from those little bright yellow flowers, he just nodded.

In fact, it was because I already knew.

Kalyan enjoys tea so much that Jan prepares tea several times a day. Since the poisoned tea, Jan has always prepared Kalian’s tea himself.

He didn’t know that the reason he started to enjoy tea in such a refined way was because he gave up his favorite drink, but anyway, all the flowers and fruits that could be dried and poured with water were neatly stored in Jan’s mind.

“Anyway, it’s been a while since I’ve had tea with flowers. The prince enjoys tea, but these days, he stays away from flower tea. He also likes mint a lot.”

Now Demirea was sure.

Jan must have brought a story that is difficult to bring up.

“Has there been any contact from Prince Calian yet?”

So I just gave it a try first.

As soon as he finished speaking, his round blue-gray eyes were filled with sorrow.

“Leah. I guess the prince forgot about me.”

“I think you are forgetting about the lives of elves other than your brother.”

“Prince Plants said he told everything to Reric, but our prince just ran away. When I checked, he even took money out of the safe and left, but he didn’t tell me.”

It’s clear that you didn’t hear what Demirea said just now.

My fiancé left home, and Demirea, who calmly accepted the situation and drank tea, was unable to sleep because my brother, not me, was worried about my fiancé.

After that, I grabbed a few caramels that Jan brought me and ate them.

I waited for the baby elephant, which had been crying for a while, to quiet down, wondering what I would do if my flower-like prince got scratched somewhere and what if he heard some harsh words from his delicate heart.

“You will arrive safely, so don’t worry too much.”

No matter where he got scratched or where he heard some harsh words, my brother didn’t think it would be of any use to tell him that he just had to prepare Annelucia for that person, so he just reassured her a little and continued to eat the caramel.

I wanted to at least use my mouth so I could use my ears less.

In fact, looking back, I went out like that and came back with my side torn open or a hole in my stomach, so it wasn’t completely understandable that I was worried like that.

“But I feel better after talking to you.”

Yan, who had finally finished worrying, concluded his speech with these words.

“Didn’t you say that to Knight Sir Bern or the Second Prince’s attendant?”

“Now they don’t want to listen anymore.”

“…… ah.”

Demirea let out a small laugh as she thought about how much she must have suffered from Jan’s worry.

“Ah, Leah. But I didn’t come just to talk about the prince.”

At these words, Dmirea looked at Jan, and Jan took out a letter from his arms and handed it to Dmirea. Demirea took it and opened it, and saw a handwriting so elegant that it was difficult to recall the person holding the pen.

– To our beloved Duke.

It was a letter from Slayman.

As soon as she saw the top line, Demirea immediately folded the letter again and opened her mouth.

“You sent this to the palace.”

“It wasn’t sent to the royal palace, but to the residence of the Marquis Manasil. They asked for a reply.”

“If you ask me why I changed my ways, I will tell you why.”

Demirea sighed.

“You haven’t asked a single question about my decision to help Prince Calian, but you are curious about other things, so I have nothing to say.”

Slayman did not ask anything about the matter involving Evan. The moment he was entrusted with the work in the capital, he had passed over everything that needed to be done in the capital, and since Demirea had not yet taken an official position to ‘support’ Calian, he left it as is.

– I heard there was a daughter in our family, but I can’t remember at all.

Instead, he was persistently curious about Riri.

I knew which family Riri belonged to, but I wasn’t concerned about it, but was really curious. When are you going to bring her and show her? Is she my daughter or your daughter? If she is my daughter, she will be Yan the dog. That seems a bit strange, so I can’t sleep these days because I’m wondering what to do. But is there anything you need? Should I send you clothes, cookies, a teacher, etc.

“ostrich.”

“yes.”

This time, Jan called Dmirea, who was skimming over the letter containing the same content, and looked at Dmirea’s eyes and the letter alternately.

The mansion’s butler, knight Yuran, Ronansite, and Arsene were all worried about Lirie. Therefore, Dmirea, who thought that Yan might say the same thing, looked at Yan with a tired expression.

“thank you.”

But Jan said this.

“Thank you for raising me to be someone who takes care of children without thinking about anything else. I just stayed here the whole time.”

Leaving Calian’s position aside for a moment, I simply said thank you as Siegfried’s eldest son and as the older brother of Dmirea, who was once someone’s younger sister.

Demirea smiled quietly and nodded.

And ‘Liri will be my younger sister, not her father’s daughter, so you don’t have to worry. I decided to write a reply saying, “I like walnut and almond cookies, so please send me those.”

* * *

The path I walked without forgetting even a single moment.

– Now it’s just a story from some distant day.

Although I told others to put it off and live, I myself did not forget it even for a moment.

Calian raised his head at the words of the mother tree, who had created the path intact and showed it to him before his eyes, adding a feature he had not seen before.

A quiet smile appeared on Calian’s mouth. Even if I understood everything else, I couldn’t understand the elves, so I just laughed.

“If you’re going to make me worry, I’ll treat you well…”

The red jewel powder floating in the sky shook.

They turned into red flames like sparks from a bonfire and were disappearing one by one.

Sparks flew at the end of the long road Calian had walked so far. As if everything were being burned down, little by little from afar, but without stopping, they all turned into small flames and headed towards the sky.

Bern someday.

Kalyan someday.

All the painful things that I could not forget came to mind one by one.

I looked again at the steeple erected in the distance.

I was thinking about going up there, but I just left it there.

I looked into the light green eyes of the person standing in front of me.

I thought about talking to him for a moment, but left him alone.

They also knew that it was a story from some time ago and that they should just leave it as is, so they didn’t do that. Instead, I watched as larger flames than anything else rose calmly from the spire and before my eyes.

Calian stretched out his hand once again.

I sweep away the Sinastar that was placed on the remaining memories of someone who should be forgotten.

“It was hard… a lot.”

Now, I caress the face of the person who has disappeared one last time.

“Good job. You endured well. Everything is okay now.”

Even though it was a tragedy.

Even if it was the last chapter that those who could not let go of their regrets could not finish.

In the end, I lived well because I wasn’t unhappy.

“Bern.”

I sent my condolences.

The flame became a star.

And left behind another star.

* * *

There was no explosion or stabbing as feared.

Instead, unexpected news was delivered.

“I can’t believe you went out.”

“They say you went out into the woods outside the city. Just now.”

Planz slightly closed his eyes.

“Stay next to the elf.”

Needlen, who heard this, was about to ask, ‘Is the vice-commander telling me to take the troopers and have fun with Lord Hill until Prince Calian comes to replace him?’ But Plantz walked out in a hurry. So, Needlen thought that what he thought was correct and began to lead the crew well. It means that we started playing together. While drinking carbonated water.

Anyway, Plantz, who separated this Balkan, mounted his horse. And then I followed towards the forest where Calian had headed.

It wasn’t that difficult to replace where it was.

– Quaaaang!

All you have to do is head to the place where the loud noise is heard.

As soon as they left the boundaries of the elven city, Plants entered a dense forest and took a moment to adjust to the slightly lower temperature. And as I turned my head back and forth to gauge the direction Calian had gone, I heard a loud sound of something being hit hard.

Plantz, who pricked up his ears without being startled by the loud sound, walked towards the direction of the sound.

There was a valley that I thought was probably a waterway leading to the waterfall where I saw the rainbow last time, and Calian was sitting on a rock at the edge of the water.

“Why again?”

Planz, who had probably sat on the sand so many times that the large rocks now looked like nothing more than chairs, sat a little away from Calian and asked.

“Are you here?”

Calian wasn’t even surprised.

He bowed his head and greeted me naturally, as if he knew he was coming or was waiting.

“I came out because I had something to check for a moment.”

Planz glanced at the rock fragments scattered in the distance and frowned.

“It doesn’t seem like confirmation, it just seems like a way to vent your anger.”

“I’m not a person with such violent habits.”

Kalian, who said this, stared at the flowing water for a while and then opened his mouth.

“It was difficult to understand the meaning of Sispanian, but it is even more difficult to understand the mother tree.”

“What did you say again?”

“Are you worried?”

“no.”

Calian nodded and smiled at the immediate answer.

“First of all, I finished talking with the Grand Elder. I decided not to whine any more by saying that I would move to Secretia, and I decided to send a letter to Devlan asking them to come directly to the Grand Elder’s location if they want to receive treatment. I will let you know when I receive a reply. “I said I would give it to you, so I think you can just go back to the palace for now.”

Planz looked at Calian for a moment.

He didn’t know that it was because the title of King Secretia had changed slightly, but Calian just pretended not to know and continued talking.

“I heard that the Mother Tree did not open the forest path towards Brigitte Forest, but it seems to be because of me. If I do not open the forest path, Devlan will ask the elves to negotiate about it, and as a result, I will come here. Especially the conversation. “I didn’t share it, so I don’t know if it was really for that reason or if I saw some other causal relationship, but it felt that way.”

It’s like a fondant.

A small chunk of Auror went into the water of the valley.

Calian’s words reached the ears of Plantz, who could not see him because he had not turned his gaze towards Calian.

“In the unlikely event that Devlan causes trouble in the forest, I asked him to open the forest path in a timely manner and evacuate the residents there, and I was told that he would do so. The forest over there was a little bit nerve-wracking for me, so I made a fuss.”

“Yes.”

“And…”

Calian, who looked like he was going to continue speaking again, closed his mouth and held out his palm.

– Ugh!

With a low ringing sound, a small Auror’s sword was created in the hand, and Plantz, who saw it, chuckled. “I guess the

elf eating chicken wasn’t wrong.”

Mother Tree, who was said to see through many things, looked into Calian’s mind. It seems.

A sword with a transparent red light that reminded me of something other than death, which would no longer feel unpleasant, was floating in front of my eyes. “

Yes.”

Plantz, who did not ask what caused it to shake off and become that light again, nodded. . And after looking at the light for a moment, Calian dispersed his sword again and opened his mouth.

“So you came out?”

To confirm that the auror had changed.

“No. This was something I learned as a bonus. “I was trying to check something else.”

“What check?”

Calian grinned.

Then he opened his mouth and pointed toward the area connected to the elf forest.

“The elves calculate the help they receive quite thoroughly. Even if it was a bit odd from my perspective, I thought it would be helpful to the elves. I’ll give you a reward.”

Plantz looked at Calian.

Calian turned his waist for a moment and lowered his arm behind the rock he was sitting on. He then picked up something and held it out to Plantz.

“Because where everyone disappeared, a star remained. I decided to take it.”

A cold silver sword that seemed to have a blue glow was in Calian’s hand.

Calian opened his mouth while thinking for a moment about the mother tree that returned the burnt remnants of the star to its original form. .

“Brother, use it.” He

said he would give him another sword.

Holding an unexpected gift in his hand, Plantz’s eyes stopped at one place.

– The finger that had unconsciously been placed on the black letters of Sinasta

did not come down for a long time.

“Where should I leave it? “Drink it this time.”

A low voice asked a request.
