Reborn as the Enemy Prince
Chapter 480

Chapter 85. Meng (1)

There was a harpy in Calian’s villa.

The villa was prepared by Kalian’s senior servant.

Calian was concerned that the aftermath of the incident would spread a stigma against Siegfried. It was thought that the three princes, who coveted the throne, had joined hands with Siegfried to attack Crown Prince Planz, or that they had planned to send Harpy to the capital. Therefore, Demirea came down to Whitlin in person to investigate the truth.

However, the situation went in a slightly different direction than Kalian expected.

“This is what you did by joining hands with us?”

“It’s true as it is said. Since the prince is eagerly seeking your position, there is a rumor that you have joined hands with Siegfried to harm the prince. This is a rumor that will subside when you and the princes return to the palace, but I am telling you to keep it in mind. “That’s right. You, the leader elephant, should not have been so surprised to hear that from somewhere that you start swinging your sword.”

“Are there still people who think the relationship between you two is not good?”

“Do you think there are people who think we get along well?”

“Hagisa. Anyway, this is all because my kid is so talented!”

“Why is the rumor going out there? Do you think you like this rumor?”

“What’s there to hate? Because he’s so talented, isn’t there a rumor that this guy and that guy are joining hands with my kid?”

“… This is why people say you shouldn’t sit in the same place as people who use swords.”

“Don’t forget. Half of your newbies also use swords.”

“Did you just curse at my kid?”

“I?”

“Is there another elephant here who made fun of his snout?”

“When did I say that the wizard turned pale again and only his ears got old?”

For example, a situation where the strongest sword master in Kairis and the strongest wizard on the continent are arguing as if they were gangsters in the back alleys of Naeranxia. Calian probably never imagined that the incident would spread like this.

“I say this because I put Prince Calian on the same level as you.”

But someone broke up the argument between the two.

The person who scolded the leader elephant, who was arguing with an archmage who looked much younger than me but was actually much older than me, turned his head. He then spoke to the archmage who was arguing with the sword master, who looked much older than me but was actually much younger than me.

“I heard that the body of Knight Siegfried was found in the villa of the Whitlin estate. I don’t want you to doubt us, but just in case you never know, please pay attention to one of the two, whether you be silent or be careful of what you say, Marquis.”

A person who could scold the Duke and Marquis who were arguing while sitting across from each other in Duke Siegfried’s residence. It was Serie.

For now, Alan kept his mouth shut. And then quietly unfolded Silent. It was not that they would stop arguing, but their will to prevent the argument from leaking out was clearly revealed, but Seri did not pay much attention to it.

“Prince Calian is a bastard anyway.”

Then, Alan’s new kid, Ani. He calmly informed us whose child Alan’s new son actually was.

“Besides, didn’t you say that Prince Calian is the person who will become the next king of this country? It is not easy for anyone to understand that the Marquis adopted such a prince without your knowledge. It is a heavy statement to dismiss as nonsense. No matter how much this place is, Even though it’s a comfortable position, don’t forget.

“I’m sorry.”

“I’ll take note of it.”

It was Slayman who meekly apologized to Serie’s words. And instead of explaining, “I said it after already checking that there were no listening ears around.” It was Alan who nodded.

Seelie sighed a little as she looked at the two and said again,

“There is no one who doesn’t know that the Little Duke is allied with Prince Calian. Everyone knows how much your Majesty trusts the Duke. It is a rumor that cannot be taken lightly that such a minor duke secretly joined hands with the Crown Prince to try to harm Prince Calian.”

When Calian hid in Duke Siegfried’s residence after being attacked by Zeon for the first time, he visited the Duke’s residence. Plants volunteered to be Dmirea’s hostage. In addition, the two even pretended that Calian had gone missing. At the time, Dmirea made quite an

interesting threat to stop Evan from demanding an apology for the incident. . It was a threat that said, ‘If you don’t want to create a rumor that Prince Planz stayed alone at his brother’s fiancé’s house, keep your mouth shut.’ But that incident has now caused an uproar. In response to Demirea’s threat

,

Evan He kept his mouth shut that day. Therefore, Demirea also did not spread such rumors, but suddenly

in this situation, the events of that day came to the surface. Why did Plantz go to the mansion where the Duke was staying alone in the middle of the night? The relationship between the two was surprisingly good. “I wonder if it’s true.

” “So, aren’t you saying that you and the Duke were holding hands under the table?” “

That’s right.”

Plantz and Demirea have been secret allies for a long time. Meanwhile, Plantz, who did not miss this opportunity, is my younger brother. I tried to kill him, and Demirea betrayed the fiancé who joined hands with me and helped Planz.

There are rumors like this going around.

“Don’t laugh it off, sir.”

Siegfried is a betrayal.

The falling out and the breaking up of the engagement were the same. It’s such a stigma that Siegfried the Cytros Horn, who was already buried in the ground and completely gone, tried to walk out of the grave with a confused face. “I’m sure you’ll laugh it off

! It was such an absurd thing to say, so we were just joking around for a while.”

Slayman, who answered Serie, looked at Alan.

“What did Lemain say?”

“I can’t believe it so much that someday I want to hear with my own ears how much you curse. I did it, but it’s not worth hearing it twice.”

“Did you say there was a damn rumor?”

“You said Brissen spreads damn rumors.”

“Is it true that Brissen did it?” ”

If it wasn’t Brissen, who else could it be? . Your ears have confirmed it.”

Where is the source of the rumor?

Of course, it must be the Brissen nobles who are trying to somehow get Gray out of prison in the royal palace.

Rashid Brissen has no sign of being caught, and the rumor from the Whitlin Estate was revealed at best. It is obvious that Siegfried did this because he did not suffer much damage. Since he

could not touch Lemain, which rose to the sky with the appearance of Sispani, he touched Planz. If he does so, let’s count ‘the son of a corrupted nature who has not changed at all.’ Wouldn’t the reputation of Lemain, who had been singled out as such, also been shaken? At this point, he had even cornered Planz and said, ‘If you listen to us carefully, we will put you on the throne’, and even put Plantz in his hands and used Plantz as a hostage to get Gray out. That was the intention.

“Anyway, these damn things.”

“Are you the one who taught me those inappropriate words?”

At Alan’s question, Slayman burst out laughing and nodded. Then, he took a swig of the wine in front of him and opened his mouth.

“The late king was killed by Asnan’s sword, and Lemain was cut in the side while trying to stop it. At that time, a hole appeared in Lemain’s intestines. “No matter how blessed it was, there were no Tencil healers at the time and Lemain was not as strong as the 3rd prince, so it’s a miracle he didn’t die.” This was the story of the day Lemain ascended to the

throne .

“But the man who had been reading books all his life went around like that, got Evan’s sword, sent his brother to the tower, took the throne, and lined up all the nobles who were on Asnan’s side in the square .

I thought he had come to his senses after that, but he was able to sit up within a day. So I did that. I don’t know what that damn crown is, but it makes people really crazy. Go lie down and go to sleep.”

It was also a story from a time when Lemain was not like a cow. After hearing that, Alan asked,

“What did you say then?”

“Don’t meddle in a topic that was just about watching. That’s what Lemain told me.”

Alan clicked his tongue.

Slayman, who probably didn’t know what that meant, picked up the wine bottle. He poured a glass each into Serie’s glass and his own and opened his mouth.

“That’s what he said . I wonder how the guy who knew how to

do something ended up like that.” “Elephant, what did you do so well?”

“That’s right.”

After leaving the capital and returning to the Duchy of Siegfried, I inherited the Dukedom not long after. After getting used to the position, it wasn’t long before I started flying. I lost my eldest son, who had been suffering from an illness since I was a child. Then my second child closed his heart. As if I was leaving the second child, whom I had comforted and comforted, to be sent to the young prince in the palace, my third child, who was left alone, started having nightmares every night. He hung on to his sword like an obsession and read books obsessively. I saw it. I didn’t have the time to pay attention to my old friend’s affairs because I was focusing my attention on those three children.

Still, it wasn’t an excuse.

Because it wasn’t just Slayman’s second son who saw the dryness of the young third prince. . That’s because Sleiman, who came to the palace holding the hand of his second son Jan, also saw Calian. ”

I didn’t do anything well either.”

“I wonder if there are people who did well.”

Sleiman happened to say something damning to Lemaine. Alan, who was in a really shitty mood after hearing what he taught, clicked his tongue once again. “

… If I had known it would be like that, things would have been different.” If

Alan had come to Kairis with Ronil, only Slayman would have done so. If he had known that his eldest son was suffering from an illness, Ronil would have cured the illness.

Instead of living in hiding in the duchy, Sleiman would come back to the capital and Briesen would be wary of Siegfried, so he would save himself a little. So, If only Slayman had paid attention to the young king who became his old friend’s younger brother and new friend. If so,

a

lot of things would have been different.

I thought to myself,

“Can’t you stop complaining?”

Serie’s voice said. Alan, who had swallowed a lot of bitterness at these words, smiled slightly.

‘Have you never thought about that, Prince?’

‘What do you mean?’

‘I’m talking about whether the person who decided to turn back time was really right.’

‘Perhaps Lord Siegfried or Baron Siegfried wanted it. Jan or Demirea… or Brother Randel wanted it. Or, if not that, the Master himself wanted to turn back time. Yes, I thought. I wouldn’t do it. ‘I couldn’t do it.’

‘Do you mind if I ask what conclusion you came to?’

‘I haven’t come to a conclusion. This is a life where there are so many things to regret.’

‘…… Is that so.’

‘I was wondering what other people would think. No matter who made up their minds first, time has already gone back, so now who are we to suspect and blame? That’s nothing to complain about.’

After fighting as ‘Bern’ in front of Balkan,

I remembered the conversation I had with Bern, who had visited the spire of Secretia’s royal palace, and brought him back to Kairis. Serie said something very similar to Calian, which made me think of it. So

Alan, who had put aside his complaints, looked at Slayman and Serie and asked,

“So, are you planning to bring in the Duke?

“no.”

“Is there any need to call me here and make my baby step into the mud?”

“then?”

“I don’t know about the wizard, but if you want to deal with an oncoming attack, you need to learn not only how to block it, but also how to deflect it.”

Naburangi, the only 8th circle wizard on the continent, was about to answer this, but this time Serie opened her mouth.

“We watched as the third was indignant on our behalf for touching the second, and now we can call them parents if we allow them to even reach out to the third. No matter how much the duke and I are elephants, something can happen that trumps our beliefs. I don’t know. Moreover, I

said, “Serie, who had a relaxed voice, looked at Slayman and continued,

“I didn’t just turn a swordsman who was like a piece of metal into a duke because I was bored during my days in the southern region.”

Yes,

he was like a piece of iron.

Oh my . It was my first time seeing a guy swinging a sword so ignorantly. I made fun of him for being stupid and stupid, but it wasn’t because he was really stupid that he thought that way. It was because he didn’t pay attention to anything else and only held on to the sword. That was Slayman at that time

. Alan, who was thinking of this and laughing together, nodded and said to the two with an indifferent look on his face,

“Are you planning on causing a big accident and going down?”

“That’s right.”

“Yes. That’s what I plan to do.”

I couldn’t stand by and ignore the people who tried to make my daughter and my son suffer so much, so we decided to try our hand at their politics. After paying them back, I said to Demirea: He said he was planning to pass on the title.

“It’s nice to hear.”

Alan answered with sincerity after hearing what the two said.

“Now it’s time to go out and play quietly with our Serie!”

Rather than the beliefs he held firmly, it was his child. The piece of iron, now a duke, who knew that this was more serious, laughed loudly.

* * *

Quite a long time has passed.

– What’s going on? Or not yet.

– Prince Randel is still talking to the elder.

– What? You’ve been talking for so long. Brother Randel, are you fighting again?

– No. You don’t have to worry. I think it will be over soon. – Okay,

if anything happens, we’ll talk about it.

– Yes, Prince.

– And I’ll look at your sword later at night, so think about it. It’s okay, Kyrie.

– Thank you.

The conversation between Randel and Grand Elder Narzan never ended. So the fact that I left it to Kyrie was Jan’s, but I checked the situation for a moment through the bracelet that Pea had taken. Then, I looked to the side

. He turned and opened his mouth.

“I’m thinking of watching Kirie’s swordsmanship at night. Take a look, you too.”

Plantz, who was about to frown slightly, nodded quietly. The guy who came to me to say he would raise a dog in place of my brother hasn’t returned, so that’s probably why he did it. I guessed what he was thinking, but he hasn’t said anything yet

. Bern, who had no intention of going back, grinned. Seeing that, Plantz finally spoke up.

“Why?”

“I’m afraid I’ll get scolded by you if I call your brother now. I’m not used to being scolded. “I’ve never been scolded much, so I am.”

Right now, I get scolded by Jan, Hina, and Alan, and I get scolded a lot by Dmirea. These are

the words of Bern, who has never been scolded except for a few times when he was very young by Deanna and Louise. Planz frowned.

“I went into the sea without asking a single question. Then.”

“I asked.”

“I didn’t ask properly.”

“I thought you would understand that much.” ”

Obviously, the guys who were saying it was all their fault just a little while ago were now saying, ‘Now that I think about it, I think you were a little more at fault.’

“I didn’t ask you if it was right to tell you to go into the sea. “ Why on earth did you go into the sea? ” “I

thought there must have been a plan.”

“Who told you to be scared?” “

A pea that lives somewhere was sprayed with perfume, but it ended up in the ocean.”

“If you pour perfume on it, it won’t die.”

“You won’t die if you go into the sea.”

“I’ll die.”

“I won’t die.”

Bern replied, holding onto the tail of his horse as if he wouldn’t give up, then turned his head again. The moon had already risen and he opened his mouth, looking at the dark blue waves sparkling with silver

. I won’t die. This time.”

“… Didn’t you say it would be easier said than done?”

“When.”

“On a day when I was full of perfume.”

“Ah. The day I was beaten by you.”

This time, Planz turned his head and looked at Bern. After

realizing that he had made a mistake, Bern quickly changed his words.

“Ah. The day your younger brother was beaten by you. Not me.” He

‘s saying he doesn’t want to use polite language yet.

Because if he does, it’s obvious he’ll get scolded for jumping into the sea. Kalian even said it was entirely his fault, so there’s no way to avoid getting scolded. “I didn’t say it was easy

. “I said I wouldn’t die.”

“How? “Why do you promise?”

“Because I don’t like breaking my heart twice. “Your younger brother,”

whether it was a promise to live another 30 to 50 years or a promise to raise a dog,

he said he would not break it twice.

“I won’t die. anyway. So, stop rushing at me to rescue your little brother. If you don’t do that, you won’t die. Because I won’t die.”

“…..”

“Answer.”

“Okay.”

Bern nodded and followed the distant sea in a daze for a moment.

“I don’t know the details. Evidence was discovered that the 3rd Prince Kairis attempted to assassinate Silike. So it’s true that he died. I didn’t know you drank poisoned tea. Because that wasn’t mentioned in the story delivered to Secretia.”

“Then.”

“He was assassinated.”

Strangulation disguised as suicide.

The specific reason why Calian died in the past was not mentioned. The purpose was to harass him by revealing such details. It wasn’t something I said out loud.

“It’s not your fault, past or present, but it was Silike who killed you. Whether you, Prince Randel, or King Lemaine, they were all wrong, but it was Silike who killed them.” ”

I know.”

“That was a wrong answer for us and a right answer for Silike. It’s not that you made a mistake on your own and gave the child the wrong answer. In the end, it just happened that way.”

“……I know.”

“Every number of cases, each variable, yes. I know you made a smart calculation. I know I’m not wrong this time. “Because you calculated correctly and I made everything correct.”

Plantz nodded.

“But if you keep worrying that you might be wrong, I will have no choice but to make everything correct in case you get stuck with the wrong answer.” . Then I’ll go into the sea again and you’ll wither again.” I

didn’t do anything wrong, but I can’t live forever calculating the numbers for everything.

“Let’s not do that.”

“…… Yes. .”

“I won’t die. You can either give the right answer or a wrong answer.”

“Okay.”

– Slap…!

The peaceful sound of the waves, which I had already grown tired of, lingered in my ears. Plants nodded and Calian smiled.
