Reborn as the Enemy Prince -
Chapter 89
Chapter 18. He had a lot of money (3)
“He was very careful.”
scolded.
“After spending a good winter, in less than half a day, he turned his back on Marquis Evan Briesen and completely quarreled with Prince Randel. It was very obvious that he did it with such a temper tantrum.”
Since everything went wrong in one day, there was no way any good words would come out of Alan’s mouth.
“While you’re at it, why don’t you bring Prince Randel and Marquis Briesen together and have them say goodbye to each other? It would have been perfect if you had told them to get along well at this point.”
It is unknown whether Evan’s swordsmanship skills are better than Calian’s, but it was confirmed once again that it was not easy to bridge the gap over the time he had accumulated aurors. In the end, I told Alan this, no longer hiding it.
Moreover, it became clear that Randel did not regard Calian as an equal. I realized that all of my actions, such as occasionally helping or accepting comments, were part of watching Kalian grow into a ‘fairly useful tool’. So I refused and told this to Alan.
So I got scolded. No, I was getting scolded.
“The Marquis must have accumulated a lot over the years. I know that. But Briesen is still in trouble, so he may get angry at least once regardless of whether there is a difference in Auror status.”
After saying that, Alan felt frustrated and snapped his fingers as if he couldn’t help it. The terrace door opened wide and a cold breeze blew in.
Alan’s eyes, with an expression of wanting to live a little longer, landed on Calian again.
“Even so, Briesen, Prince Randel’s inner thoughts were not suspicious for a day or two, so why did you bother to stir them up and start a fire? Why did you come so sharply, which is unbecoming of a prince? If it were normal, I would have stayed in an appropriate state until I decided how to respond. The person who would have bought it.”
Calian, who had listened closely enough to hear everything Allen said, said with a grin.
“Chocolate is delicious.”
I talked excitedly and this is what happened.
“Where else can I replace such a beautiful student?”
A little anger leaked out from Alan.
Calian, who shook off the fear expressed by his teacher with a calm face, savored the scent of tangerines in the chocolate and recalled what happened with Randel a little while ago.
‘It’s a shame.’
When Kalian said that he would not stand at his feet, Randel responded like this without changing his expression. And he left without another word.
“I didn’t come here without thinking, so you don’t have to worry.”
“Are you telling me not to worry about anything anymore?”
“Brother Randel will not do anything until he is sure that I have turned my back on Briesen. The Marquis of Briesen will still be cautious, so there is no need to worry about that either.”
“Even so for Prince Randel, how do you view Marquis Briesen? Silike has also disappeared, so shouldn’t we grab one of the three princes right away to survive?”
“Because I was on the same boat as Brother Planz.”
Calian briefly brushed away his hair that was swaying in the blowing wind and continued speaking.
“If you know how much your brother knows about Silike’s secrets, I don’t know if you told me or not. So wouldn’t you be anxious?”
“If you are talking about Silike’s secret, are you talking about the former queen Aisha?”
“Yes. He would have at least brought her poison, so there is no way Marquis Briesen was not involved in that matter. And you wouldn’t think that I would already know about Aisha’s poisoning. However, I wonder if Brother Planz might know about it. “I’m sure you’ll be suspicious.”
Evan doesn’t know how close Planz and Silike were. So Evan was saying that even if Calian didn’t know that Silike poisoned Aisha, he would be worried that Plantz might know.
“Even if Marquis Briesen thinks of joining hands with Brother Randel, he will have no choice but to think of Brother Planz first. ‘Does Prince Plantz know what happened about Aisha? If so, did he tell it to Calian?’ “I do.”
Alan nodded without another word.
“If I hear that story and tell it to Tensil, the Tensil royal family will target Brisen, so it may have been like that in the past, but now I won’t be so hasty in reaching out to Brother Randel. Just like I have been doing up until now.”
In the end, it meant that they would not be able to keep Calian in check right now because Randel was focused on Plantz and Briesen, and Briesen was focused on Randel and Tensil.
For that reason, Kalyan, who had lost his temper once, picked up another piece of chocolate and put it in his mouth.
It was sweet.
The scent of a place I miss spreads in my mouth.
* * *
In my sleep, I stretched out my hand and something white and soft touched the tip of my finger.
The gentle crushing feeling wasn’t bad, so Planz, who had been quiet for a while, suddenly came to his senses. And when I realized that this was not something I could just feel good about and move on from, I straightened up.
A round, flat thing that looked like a cushion at first glance was fast asleep next to Plants.
Of course it was Calian’s cat.
“Here we go again.”
This damn cat, who had never been to Calian’s room on his own, still came every time he got the chance. Plantz, who woke up thanks to the guy who was sleeping oblivious to the world, couldn’t think of any better, so he just got up.
And once again the movement stopped.
This is because I saw the cat’s owner sitting on the sofa through the bedroom curtains.
Kalyan came again after saying there would be no more incidents like this.
It was thanks to Alan, who said he couldn’t do it twice, but took the trouble to do it once more.
“what.”
“I was wondering how to wake you up, but I’m glad you did.”
I couldn’t tell if it was because he was sleeping quite deeply or because Calian was able to move a little more quietly. Anyway, this time neither the cat nor the cat owner noticed the entrance.
“I have to go somewhere in the morning, so I can’t go to breakfast.”
“however.”
“Ah. I didn’t mean to tell you that I couldn’t go to breakfast, but I thought I couldn’t tell you anything because I couldn’t go to breakfast.”
Plantz waited for Calian’s next words without replying to the pitchless voice.
“Marquis Briesen will replace you in the near future. It could be today at the earliest.”
“…… okay.”
“Are you uncomfortable dealing with me?”
Since Evan was quite involved in Silike’s affairs, Calian had no idea what Plants would think of Evan. That’s why I was asking.
In fact, it was true that my relationship with Evan was not very cozy to spend time with each other face to face. But it wasn’t so much that I was reluctant to see his face. Therefore, Plantz responded in a tone that it was no big deal.
“doesn’t care.”
Because of the curtain, Plantz could see Calian’s face, but Calian could not see Plantz’s expression. Therefore, it was difficult to tell whether what he said was sincere or not, but Calian just nodded.
Plantz asked in a calm voice.
“Can I treat you well and send you away?”
Plantz also knew how much trouble Calian had given Evan and sent him back. So, I was thinking that Evan would come looking for Randel or myself next.
I couldn’t come to a conclusion yet on what to do, but Calian seemed to have solved the problem for me.
“You don’t have to be nice to me, I think you just have to treat me moderately.”
Plantz nodded before opening his mouth.
You won’t be able to see it if you nod.
“Okay, go.”
“And although it may not be the appropriate thing to say this morning.”
“What else?”
Instead of standing up, Calian chose his words once more. I had to say one more thing that was a bit difficult to say. Thanks to this, when no words continued for a while, Planz turned his head for a moment and looked toward Heisia Palace.
“Is it something to do with my mother?”
You really are so perceptive.
“Yes, that’s right.”
“say.”
“Marquis Briesen may want to replace out if you know something. I think it would be good for you to know in advance. You need to show that you know and that you told me.”
Kalian, who said that, continued as if to warn people to be careful.
“If it seems like you know the secret but didn’t tell me, you’ll die.”
Plantz chuckled.
I thought there were a lot of people dying these days.
“What’s going on?”
“Former Queen Aisha was poisoned.”
There was no sound beyond the curtain for a while. And instead of an answer, a short sigh was heard.
It must have meant that he understood well, so Calian stood up without saying any more. Then, after briefly bowing his head, he returned to his room.

Euria Siren came out of the house a little earlier than usual.
Originally, it was the day when I had to go to Fallun Magic Academy and become the headmaster Euria, but that day was different. I went to the Kairis Wizard Association building.
By the time the carriage reached the front of the association building, Euria had discovered something and had a look of disappointment on her face.
“Raven is already in big trouble.”
This was because there was a black horse in the stable with white fur only on its right ankle, which all the Cairisians now recognized.
I arrived 30 minutes earlier than the scheduled time, and Kalyan arrived first. Euria hurriedly got off the carriage and entered the building.
There were unusually many people in the building. They gathered to see Calian, who had come to see Euria. Anyway, without paying attention to the greetings given by the curious wizards, Euria made her way through the crowd of wizards and entered her office.
Calian, who had already drunk half of his tea, smiled at Euria who had just entered. Just by looking at it, you can tell it was rushed.
“I came early, so you don’t have to worry.”
“I’m sorry, prince.”
After showing a courtesy to Calian, Euria immediately walked to the desk and brought out a letter.
“Here is news from Count Eisen Eifrin. It arrived last evening.”
A letter detailing the progress of the knight forces’ preparations.
Once a month, Aizen contacted Calian through Euria. And Calian was sending them instructions and support funds based on the information they had received through Euria.
Kalian, who was reading the letter, fell silent for a moment. In the past, it only said that preparations were being made without any problems, but that wasn’t the case this time.
“It’s an epidemic.”
“Yes. It is said that an epidemic broke out in the territory of one of the knight families. I heard that one out of ten residents and knights died. It seems that the problem arose as the cold went away.”
“Now that there are no healers in Kairis, it must have been very difficult. But I’m glad to hear that things are slowing down now. I’ll have to tell you if your Majesty is aware of this.”
After saying that, Kalyan looked back for a moment and Jan came over and put down a check.
Calian, who had spent a higher amount than originally expected, conveyed it to Euria and said:
“This is the only thing I can help you with. Please send the necessary supplies through Baron Fallun. If other nearby territories are also damaged, they too.”
“Yes, my prince. I will.”
Soon Kalyan got up and went out.
Euria’s eyes widened as she tried to see Calian off. The check had one more ‘0’ attached to it than the usual amount paid.
“You gave me money to purchase the territory, not restore it.”
Euria shook her head.
This was because he knew that it was not pocket money given to the prince, but Kalian’s private money.

The young man smiled as gently as his personality.
In his hand was an invitation that had arrived from Kairis not long ago.
The driver sitting across from me asked with worried eyes.
“Are you sure you want to go? It could be dangerous.”
The young man nodded without hesitation.
“I need to meet Lord Manasil. He said he’s busy, so I’ll have to go.”
The knight, who knew the young man’s stubbornness well, knew that he could no longer dissuade him and let out a short sigh. The young man laughed a little when he saw that.
The wind blew.
The young man’s long blue-silver hair shook for a moment.
