Reborn as the Enemy Prince
Chapter 85

Chapter 17. Those steps (5)

With what kind of feelings did I keep you alive?

What will happen to my life if you die by a knife like that?

You really seem like a crazy bastard.

* * *

The sword disappeared from Calian’s hand.

At the same time, Planz lost his strength and fell to the floor.

Only after seeing that scene did the venue finally become engulfed in chaos. That’s because I realized that what was surprising now wasn’t just that Calian had manifested a blue ray of light.

Because the queen swung a sword at the prince!

Lemain, who saw his son bleeding again, faltered as he walked towards Plantz.

“Planz.”

Alan, who was holding onto Lemain, looked at Calian and clicked his tongue. I’m worried because my power was revealed in front of everyone.

However, since he knew what was more important right now, Alan looked at Lemain again and said,

“First, get out of here. It could be dangerous.”

Then, without further delay, he protected Lemain and took him outside.

Along with him, Caera’s knights moved in perfect order.

Some escorted Lemain along with Allan, while others captured Silike and dragged him away. And those who remained took control of the surrounding area by sending out all the nobles.

The Balkan wizards blocked anyone else from entering Wilhelm’s coffin. This was to block another attack that might occur due to the atmosphere.

Calian, who was in the midst of this chaos, could not watch all of this happen. It would be correct to say that there was no time for that.

Calian couldn’t even think about using Aura in front of so many people just moments ago. Lemain, Jan Randel, and even Evan all put aside their worries that they had seen what Calian had hidden.

Calian bit his lip and pressed down on Plantz’s wound.

The cursing that was lingering in my head slowly came out of my mouth.

“You crazy bastard.”

Plantz had already lost his mind.

Silike’s dagger left a merciless wound. The wound was long and deep. Blood rushed out every time my heart beat. Dark red blood poured out.

The power of blessing alone was not enough.

If you really wanted your offspring to be special, the power of the blessing should have been stronger. But Sispanian did not leave that much power.

Because she was so fucking thoughtful.

If this continues, I will really die.

Calian, who was watching the bleeding not stopping, opened his mouth as if in a hurry.

“Get a healer quickly.”

“I already went to call you. I thought Hina would arrive sooner, so the Prince went to Chermil Palace.”

Kyrie, who clearly heard Calian’s voice amid the commotion, approached and answered. Then, together with Kalian, they began to stop the bleeding from Plantz’s wounds.

Then, Calian’s head suddenly lifted as he remembered something.

Isn’t there a healer right here?

Isn’t there Randel?

“Ran…”

Calian’s mouth, which had raised his head as he called out to Randel, stopped what he was trying to say and slowly closed.

Randel was still sitting in his seat and continuing to look towards Calian. Calian raised his head and Landel, who was sitting, immediately made eye contact.

So this time Kalian got to see it.

The bottom of the extremely rational Randel.

Randel was different from Calian.

I stood up. went out

It does not reveal the hidden aspects.

Calian laughed long after seeing that.

Instead of blaming Randel, Calian put strength on the hand that was pressing the wound. Another curse came out between my clenched teeth.

Before long, I saw Hina running towards me.

* * *

Silike, who had been sitting quietly, raised her head.

Footsteps, neither slow nor fast, echoed in the dark hallway. Just from the sound of those steps, I felt like I could tell who was coming.

Soon the sound stopped and there was silence for a moment.

The person who was standing silently watching Silike through the iron bars opened his mouth after a long time. It was a very deep voice.

“They said they found me.”

Blood-stained clothes, a bandage wrapped around where his right hand should be, and even a pale face. Silike’s appearance had changed so much from the morning. Nevertheless, it was still the same. It was still beautiful and still poisonous.

“I called you because I wanted to ask you something.”

Silike, who said that, frowned slightly.

When I saw that the eye was on my right hand, the cut seemed to be painful. Calian watched the scene with an expressionless face.

Silike, who had been silent for a moment, opened her mouth.

“you.”

Silike, who had called Calian like that, scanned Calian’s face. Calian silently waited for Silike’s next words.

“You have something to hide, right?”

Calian smiled empty-handedly.

Because it wasn’t the question I expected.

Did you call me here just to ask that?

I’m so curious about what Calian is hiding. Is this the only way to ask a question like this?

Soon Calian nodded his head.

Feeling that Silike’s eyes had changed when he saw that, Calian added an explanation.

“Is there anyone who has nothing to hide?”

There was no reason or intention to reveal his secret to Silike now.

After hearing those words, Silike opened her mouth again. But Kalyan had no desire to say anything more about it. That’s why he cut off Silike’s words and said.

“Now that we’re here, let me ask you one thing.”

Silike did not answer, but Calian heard in the affirmative.

“Former Queen Aisha. Is it true that you killed her?”

The purpose was to confirm whether Silike was truly involved in the death of the former queen, who was also Landel’s biological mother.

“Aisha…”

After saying that, Silike, who had been pretending to remember for a while, made an expression that reminded her of something.

Silike, with a pure yet cruel smile like that of a child, looked straight at Calian and continued speaking.

“How could I forget that? It was the first poison I ever gave with my own hands.”

He also killed Aisha.

Calian, who was speechless at the way he was talking about it as if it were a memory, laughed softly. It was time to thank Lemain for keeping him alive until now.

Silike’s soft voice echoed through the hallway.

“I told you this honestly. You are not.”

After saying that, Silike looked in Calian’s direction without saying another word. It seemed like Calian was hoping for an answer, but there was nothing more he wanted to share with Silike.

So Calian, who was about to turn away, stopped and looked at Silike for a moment. Then he quietly took a deep breath and opened his mouth again.

It was a new question, not an answer to Sillike’s words.

“I thought you would ask me as soon as you saw me. But you didn’t. Is your son dead or alive?”

Even after swinging the sword at his son with his own hand, Silike did not ask a single question.

Silike made a cold voice at Calian’s words.

“… You disturbed me until the very end.”

An extremely cruel misunderstanding. And turn away.

Calian, who was looking at the floor with slightly lowered eyes, opened his mouth.

“I don’t want to say more, but I’m a little angry too.”

Calian raised his hand and pointed to where the heart was.

“I want you to think about how you could have caused such a serious wound with that clumsy little knife of yours.”

The informal language was spoken again, but Silike’s expression did not change. All I did was hold the hem of my dress with my free hand. Silike’s eyes fell on the red blood stains on her dress. It was difficult to tell whose blood it was.

Calian, who saw this, slowly bent down and made eye contact with Silike. And he continued speaking at a slow pace.

“People usually jump in to protect.”

Sillike did not answer.

She was still looking at the hem of her dress with the same expression.

Calian, who was quietly watching the scene, spoke the last words.

“So, the steps you were taking. Why don’t you just take a look back?”

After speaking, Calian turned around and walked away.

They didn’t even say goodbye to announce the end. Once again silence came to that place where there was no one.

Soon the sound of faint sobbing spread through the hallway.

Is it a late regret or a regret that I missed a way to create a better path?

Or maybe it was a sound containing another word.

Now no one cares about it.

Even Silike himself.

* * *

Silike’s execution proceeded quickly.

As Calian had told Planz, they did not spread Renicita leaves in the square. However, a poison was delivered that caused a very long and painful suffocation. It was Lemain’s decision.

Only Lemain would know whether he was thinking of Plantz, who had no intention of waking up, or whether he thought it was the same punishment for poisoning so many people.

And on the river Seigne that day.

None of the petals floated away.

No one prepared Annerusia for Silice.

* * *

A week passed by like the quiet river Seneu.

Because they wanted to quickly erase bad memories, those who talked about Silike soon disappeared. Instead, voices mentioning Calian gradually became louder.

Because there was another incident that day that was overshadowed by Silike.

Numerous nobles and knights present saw it.

The thing Calian held in his hand was clearly an Auror.

‘The prince is only fifteen years old. No one has ever become a sword master at that age.’

‘Is that all? ‘They say he also uses magic.’

Opinions continued to be conveyed to Lemain that now that something bad had happened, wouldn’t it be time to announce something good?

But Lemain was not giving any answer. No, I couldn’t replace an answer.

Shouldn’t you say something once you meet Calian?

That day, after meeting Silike for the last time, Kalian went straight to Plantz’s room. And he hasn’t come out of that room for a week.

Since he was constantly guarding the side of Plants who could not wake up, no matter how Lemain was, he could not force himself to be summoned.

“so.”

LeMaine quietly opened his mouth and cupped his forehead.

It was noisy inside, but it was because the baby elephant sitting in front of me kept saying strange things.

“What you’re saying is that Calian learned self-defense from Howie and then took the path of the sword.”

Yan, who said that Slayman, who had devoted his entire life to training in swordsmanship, was foaming at the mouth and collapsing, was really serious. Jan even looked very proud of Calian’s accomplishments.

Plantz seemed to be in a deep sleep and didn’t wake up, which was enough to make him worry, but with the addition of Calian, it was bothering Lemain.

Unfortunately, Alan wasn’t there at a time like this.

When he said he would call Jan and ask, he said he wouldn’t be of much help and left and never came back.

“okay. I understand, so let’s go.”

In the end, Lemain sent Jan away without gaining anything.

Lemain’s sigh was deep and deep as he just hoped that Plantz would wake up as soon as possible and Calian would come out.

* * *

Meanwhile, at that time.

Le Chermil Palace, where the two princes who created Main’s sighs were located, was buried in an excessive amount of silence, the exact opposite of Lemain’s noisy interior. Outside, the incident about Silike had already been forgotten, but only Chermil had not

.

Therefore, since no one dared to open their mouths, there was a silence that made one wonder if this was indeed where the princes lived.

In particular, the atmosphere on the 4th floor where Plantz was staying was more depressed than anywhere else in the Kairis Palace. So, whoever it was, it was on the 4th floor. He was reluctant to step on it.

That’s why no one knew.

“……So why aren’t you going?”

The second prince of Kairis had already woken up and was completely normal, spewing out irritated words.

” “I haven’t found an excuse yet.”

And the fact that Calian had been stuck here for a week because he couldn’t replace the words to explain how he got on the path of the sword. Thanks to this, Lemaine, who couldn’t hold back his

frustration and called Jan, is now wondering what kind of situation he is in. Calian, who had no idea that he was going through hardships, opened his mouth with a very shameless expression.

“Don’t worry about me, just rest. You’re probably still very dizzy.”

Plantz closed his mouth.

‘I am Prince Calian’s cat.’

A cat wearing a leash with the words written on it comes up to the bed and meows. Next to it is a maid who is diligently playing with her hands and talking to the cat. Behind her, an Odd-Eye swordsman is standing with his eyes wide open without saying a word, and next to her is a 7th Circle wizard. He was constantly talking to the prosecutor.

When I first opened my eyes and saw this scene two days ago, I was worried that Silike would make him depressed and I thought that was it.

But aren’t they such friendly brothers?

“….. .Go.”

In the first place, it was my younger brother.

Calian grinned while looking at Plants like that.

It must have meant that he didn’t like it.
