Reborn as the Enemy Prince
Chapter 6

Chapter 2. It didn’t grow that much (3)

We had to move to another building for dinner.

Therefore, Kalian finished his preparations early and boarded one of the two carriages parked in front of Chermil Palace. The remaining one would naturally be for the prince who had not yet departed, either Randel or Plantz. So it looks like one person has already left.

‘It’s so wide that I wondered how I could get to the other building. ‘I never thought there would even be a carriage for transportation within the palace.’

When Sispanian said that he couldn’t live in a small space, Calian shook his head, recalling the memory of Hatsuara building a palace of such ridiculous scale.

The carriage passed through the long corridor surrounding the Chermil Palace and the fountain garden that formed the border between living and working spaces. After that, I passed Narsil Pavilion, the office space for nobles who work related to the royal family at Arpia Palace, prepared for the king’s duties, and ran a little further before stopping.

It was in front of the Senyu Pavilion, which was used for small events with nobles, and the setting sun reflected on the white marble building decorated with gilded pillars, creating a quite beautiful appearance.

“Prince. We have arrived.”

Jan, who had placed a simple staircase at the entrance of the carriage, helped Kalian not to step on the hem of his clothes when he got out of the carriage, and Senyu Gwan’s attendant came to meet him and guided him to where the dinner would be held.

A garden created behind Senyu Pavilion.

Magic lanterns were prepared in case it got dark.

Calian crossed the garden and sat down on a chair pulled out by an attendant. Randel was already there, and after Calian arrived, Plantz walked over and sat down. And the same silence as always passed for a while.

Then, I suddenly felt a strong smell of perfume.

It was the scent of the Renieri flower, which is of special value because it blooms and fades only one day a year. Even though it wasn’t indoors, the scent was so strong that it made my fingertips tingle.

‘Silike.’

Calian had never seen Silike or smelled Renieri. But the moment I smelled that scent, I knew right away that she had arrived.

Calian turned his head and looked at Queen Sillike walking with Viscount Lennon Brissen. Silike’s eyes also turned to Calian. And soon, as if they had made a promise, they simultaneously turned their eyes away from each other. Randel looked at that figure for a moment and then shifted his gaze.

Silike sat down in her own seat as if nothing had happened. It was the seat next to Plants. Plantz, who saw the two, just sat there without showing any particular courtesy.

Silike frowned slightly upon seeing that, but did not say anything, perhaps because she was conscious of Calian and Randel who were there.

“It’s been a while, you three princes.”

Lennon gave a brief greeting.

Then he looked at Calian’s face, which had become somewhat unfamiliar. Lennon looked surprised, as if he had probably seen Calian before. Just as he was about to open his mouth to Calian, Silike’s hand moved.

– Cry!

A fan made of purple silk unfolded and made a rather loud sound.

“Hmm!”

Lennon, who noticed Sillike’s discomfort, cleared his throat awkwardly and closed his mouth.

Soon dinner started with appetizers. As the conversation continued with Lennon speaking occasionally and Sillike giving short answers, Sillike’s eyes turned to Calian.

“You’ve grown a lot.”

Calian, who immediately realized that the question was directed at him, looked at Silike. At this point in time, I don’t think he really meant ‘he grew taller’.

“It hasn’t grown that much.”

After spending some time, Calian answered calmly and continued with a relaxed smile.

“It will grow even more in the future.”

Silike’s eyes changed.

The old Calian had never laughed like that. I didn’t like it at all.

At that time, the tactless Lennon intervened between the two.

“That’s right, prince. You’re still growing, so you should grow taller…!”

– Sigh!

Silike once again covered Lennon’s mouth as he did not understand the meaning of what was being said.

‘That’s right. It’s almost surprising because it’s just as rumored.’

There are many skills required to run a top.

Among them, judgment is the most basic of basics. At the very least, you have to have some tact. With his words just now, Lennon clearly proved that he lacks those two things.

‘The manager at the top will have a hard time.’

Sillike said, looking at Lennon with harsh eyes.

“The chef said he paid special attention. Enjoy yourselves, brother.”

It is a blatant expression telling you to shut up and eat.

Did he finally understand what I was saying or was he scared by the look in his eyes? This time, Lennon, who fully understood the meaning of Silike, closed his mouth and concentrated on the steak. Plantz, who was watching the scene from the side, let out a hidden laugh.

Silike’s eyes turned to Planz.

Since the conversation with Calian ended midway anyway, I opened my mouth to Plantz this time.

“I heard your horse didn’t follow you.”

Randel glanced at Calian slightly.

Calian, who was lost in thought as to whether he was referring to Raven, the words he got from Plants, or Calian himself, did not feel Randel’s gaze.

‘but. ‘I’m not the type of person to care if a horse has a bad temper.’

Therefore, the ‘horse’ that Sillike was referring to would not be Raven, but Calian. This probably means that Calian’s attitude toward Plantz has changed.

“I wish you had told me in advance.”

Plantz moved his head crookedly.

Plantz’s distorted voice followed as he looked into Silike’s light green eyes, which were identical to his own.

“What.”

I wasn’t asking what should have been said.

The dust that lived quietly before quietly disappearing after its mother has changed dramatically. Thus, it is annoying to Silike like a thorn in her throat. Plantz also understood this meaning.

“I’m sure you’ve already told them everything.”

However, he knew that Planz’s servants reported his every move to Sillike. Therefore, the question was what ‘more’ should be said about Kalyan.

Of course, Silike was not unaware that Calian had changed. The very day he cut his hair, the rumor had already spread throughout the royal palace. In addition, I had heard and knew the entire situation, including the accident at the restaurant and the horseback riding class.

Silike spoke in a disappointed tone at Plantz’s reaction.

“You didn’t tell me it was completely out of your hands.”

The red eyes facing Silike no longer contained fear. They should have told Silike that it was not only his appearance that had changed in Calian, and that Planz would no longer be able to hold on to him.

But Plantz didn’t do that.

“I don’t even know what you plan to do.”

“That’s already…”

A sneer appeared on Plantz’s lips.

“I would have told you.”

“I don’t remember.”

Plantz leaned back in his chair as if he didn’t feel like talking any more. Seeing her son like that, Silike laughed quietly.

Soon Silike’s smile changed a little differently.

It was a bright, childlike laugh. It looked exactly like what Planz had seen right before he threw the knife at Jan.

“Planz, you always have been like that. But don’t worry too much. There will be nothing more to miss and nothing to get back.”

A slight smile appeared on Calian’s lips.

‘If I die and disappear, there will be no need to run away.’

Calian pretended like nothing had happened, picked up a glass of water, took a sip, and put it down. And then we continued eating. Then Silike opened her mouth again and continued.

“It won’t take long.”

Planz turned his head and closed his eyes, as if telling him to do as he pleased. Calian’s eyes, as he naturally moved the knife, gradually turned cold.

How ridiculous must they have been to look at him so calmly and say something like that in front of him?

Randel quietly turned his head and looked at Planz and Calian. Afterwards, surprisingly, he spoke to Kalian.

“You look tired. Go and rest first.”

Even Plantz looked at Randel in surprise at his unexpected words. However, Randel did not say anything else.

I was so happy to hear that one word that helped me escape from this horrible table.

Calian immediately nodded and stood up. Silike’s brows narrowed, but he did not say anything else about Randel’s actions.

“I enjoyed the meal.”

Calian, who had spoken to Lennon, turned his head and looked directly at Silike.

Calian smiled brightly, staring at Silike with eyes that completely resembled the woman who had died. I sincerely hope that this figure also resembles the dead Freya.

“See you next time.”

Silike, who frowned for a moment, returned to his normal expression and was about to answer, when Calian turned around and left the scene. Silike’s hand holding the fan grew stronger.

Randel lowered his eyes and brought the dessert to his mouth. It was a sorbet made with Renieri flowers because Silique liked it.

The scent of Renieri’s flowers lingered in Randel’s mouth before melting away and disappearing.

* * *

Three more weeks have passed.

Ahead of the King’s Birthday celebration, the entire city of Kairis, the capital of Kairis, was in an uproar. One by one, the nobles who were staying in his domain gathered at Kairisis’ home. Envoys from all over the world came to relieve their travel fatigue at the Lubia Pavilion prepared for the royal guests. There was a commotion for a while as people came to see the elves who entered Kairisis two days ago.

Someone welcomes guests and someone prepares a banquet. Also, everyone was so busy trying to ensure safety. Everyone could not erase their excitement ahead of the grand festival.

But Yan’s complexion noticeably worsened.

Not only Jan, but also the six maids who helped Kalian look on did not look good. Even Shatin, the costume manager, who came back to Kalyan after a month, had a stern look on his face.

“Prince. How did you get thinner?”

“That’s it.”

Calian smiled humbly, looking at Shatin’s worried face.

Although he answered with a calm face and tone, Kalian was also aware of the problem. It seemed clear that the mana in my body was having a negative effect on my heart, as my heart hurt every time I tried to use magic and my body continued to deteriorate.

Jan looked at Kalian like that and said that he would call a healer every day. In the end, Calian explained that only Yan could use magic and the circumstances under which the circle had to be hidden, and also explained why they had to wait until the King’s Birthday festival.

Of course, I couldn’t say that I knew Alan was coming, so I kept that part a secret.

‘I’m sure famous wizards will come to the festival on Your Majesty’s birthday. ‘I’ll replace someone I trust to check on the problem, so just wait until then.’

If he had learned magic, the healer’s divine power could have had a negative effect, so Yan only nodded.

While Kalian was thinking about that incident, he heard Shatin’s voice.

“I think I need to get my robes repaired.”

At first, I tried sticking pins here and there on my clothes to distinguish between places that needed to be shortened and places that could be left as is. But when I realized that this was not a problem that could be solved, I took out the tape measure again.

“I will take new measurements, Prince.”

It seemed like the intention was to cut all the clothes into pieces, reduce them, and then put them back together again.

Calian felt somewhat sorry and obediently followed. Shatin took the measurements again for a while and said as if there was no problem.

“Still, I’m glad I have time. I will repair it and come back by tomorrow morning.

” “I will wear the two sets of formal clothes on the second and third days anyway, so if you are short on time, you can bring them a little later.” ”

Yes, my prince. “I understand.”

Calian immediately ordered a carriage to take Shatin. That was the least he could do to help Shatin.

That’s how King Lemain’s birthday arrived.
