Chapter 76
Chapter 15. Let me ask you just one thing. (7)
Are you going to enter Chermil Palace like this?
Should we turn around and enter Heisia Palace?
If not, should we return to Brisen Manor?
Evan stood for a while as if he had lost his way.
This was not because Evan’s subordinates lost to Alan’s subordinates, or because Alan himself was greatly pushed back in both words and force.
Of course, it was true that both of those things hurt his pride and made him angry, but it was more because Alan’s last words were touching his heart.
– Who did Margrave Gray Briesen trust, and what did he hope for when he came here? Have you ever thought about it?
The words Alan said constantly lingered in my mind.
Why on earth did Margrave Gray come to the capital?
Without even thinking, there was only one answer.
‘Silike.’
Just as Lennon abandoned Briesen and chose Randel, Sillike abandoned Evan and tried to join hands with Gray.
‘I was so caught up in the rumors that suddenly spread that I forgot an important fact.’
I was reminded of this fact through Alan’s words, and the devastation was indescribable. Evan gritted his molars to erase the voice and face of the wizard who was trying to teach him again.
Soon, Evan’s eyes naturally turned to Heysia Palace.
‘You take care of me!’
Evan’s closed fist trembled.
It was anger at realizing that his son had tried to kill his father.
Evan held on to his feet as he tried to run to Heysia Palace right now.
Evan, who barely swallowed his anger, turned his head again and looked at Chermil Palace. Evan, who was trying to see where Plants was, shook his head.
‘You shouldn’t meet hastily.’
In fact, I came here to check what the relationship between Planz and Silike was like. He wanted to know whether Planz would be affected if he sent Silike out of the palace just in case.
It was because there was no need to make Planz king if he was going to fight with Briesen for kicking out his mother. I thought that if that were the case, Lennon would be taken out and all of Briesen would support Randel.
But now things are a little different.
If Silike had betrayed Evan, he should have met with Plantz after fully understanding whose side he was on. So Evan decided to postpone this unprepared meeting for now.
So eventually Evan turned away.
Without meeting anyone, I returned to Brisen’s huge mansion, which was like a small castle.
While seriously considering what to do with the silique.
– Shoot….
And then it started to rain.
* * *
Calian, who was looking at the rain running down the window and Evan turning away beyond the rain pouring outside the window, opened his mouth.
“Looking at the direction, it looks like they are heading out of the palace.”
“At least I made the wisest decision. I thought I was stupid for fighting the same fight again, but it seems like I’m still doing my best.”
After hearing Alan’s words, Calian thought of Alan’s peer who, instead of laughing at Evan, had made even himself feel creepy.
“You were really amazing a little while ago. I’ve never experienced that level of energy before. Except for Sispanian, of course.”
Alan answered with a kind face that made you wonder if he was the same person standing in front of Evan.
“I’m sorry for surprising you.”
Calian smiled and nodded.
“Yes. I was surprised. I can’t tell you how fortunate I was that it wasn’t me who was in front of Master. Kirie couldn’t even breathe.”
Calian only conveyed his impressions of the battle up to this point.
Since he couldn’t feel Evan’s auror, he didn’t tell Alan that Evan would be stronger than him right now. Because I thought there was no need to worry.
Isn’t Calian really good at breaking things?
If there is a wall blocking you, you just need to increase your strength to break it down.
“Perhaps I should have stepped down?”
I don’t know how to interpret Calian’s smile as if he had seen something interesting, but Alan asked this.
If Lemain had heard this, he would have thought it was a stupid question. I am asking this question knowing already what answer Calian will give.
Calian shook his head and answered Alan, whose anticipation of receiving praise from his student was clearly visible on his face.
“No, Master. You did a great job. This was the information I was planning to share anyway.”
No one would have known how much this great wizard, who had nothing to fear in the world, enjoyed receiving the prince’s praise.
“I don’t know about magic, but there is no one on this earth who can beat Master with their mouth.”
As Calian added his sincere words, Alan nodded with the proudest expression in the world.
Who can teach you magic?
Isn’t moving your mouth a skill that can’t be learned from anyone?
“My mouth is one that has no rival anywhere in the world.”
Calian laughed for a while after hearing that.
Alan waited for a moment for Calian’s laughter to end before changing the subject.
“Anyway, now I think their relationship will change for the better.”
Calian hinted to Gray that Silike would take Lennon’s hand.
And Alan informed Evan that Sillike and Gray were working together to take away the marquisate.
“On the outside, it may seem like the three are suspicious of and keeping each other in check, but when you reveal it, it’s not true.”
Calian smiled slightly and answered:
On the outside, it may have seemed like the three were competing for power, but in reality, it was as if both Gray and Evan had a common enemy.
It’s a silique.
“I wonder what the silique will look like.”
Alan, who was nodding his head as if he was curious about the same thing, brought up another question that suddenly occurred to him.
“Then what do you plan to do now, Prince?”
“I’m going to go. To satisfy my curiosity.”
“I can’t believe I’m going…”
Alan asked, raising his eyes.
“Are you really saying that you are going to have a private meeting with Silike?”
“Yes. I’m thinking of meeting with you tomorrow. If it’s early, the news from those who sent Gray will arrive by tomorrow, so I thought I’d find out what Gray said.”
Alan lifted his finger and picked his ear.
“I hear someone talking as if they’re only going to live for today.”
Calian grinned.
Now, Alan wasn’t worried that Silike would give Calian his car again. Now I know that Calian is not one to fall for such a move.
I was just worried that Calian, who met Silike, would lose his temper and do something else.
“Don’t worry, we’re not really going to cause an accident this time. Gray and Evan are starting to become wary of Silike, so we need to make Silike focus on me and not on them. That way, she won’t forget her situation and move recklessly.”
It wasn’t that difficult to get Silike to focus on Calian. It was also a method that Alan knew very well.
At the words of the prince, who was well versed in turning people around, the teacher, who was well versed in sarcasm, let out a small sigh.
* * *
Neither the person to greet nor the person to visit had made an appointment in advance, but we just knew.
That we will meet again tonight and talk.
Therefore, Kalian, who was waiting for a visitor with the window open on this cold night, was not surprised by the small ‘pop’ sound coming from the terrace. He just pointed to the sofa across from where he was sitting with a calm face.
“Please sit down.”
I can’t believe I got used to Planz’s visits after just two visits.
Calian shook his head.
Plantz probably never thought he would end up in Calian’s room like this again. It must have been that way until I looked out the window at the thick, dark life I felt in the morning.
Plantz, who sat down opposite Calian, opened his mouth.
“I saw the wizard chasing the knight away in the morning.”
“Did you recognize the battle of wits between you and the Marquis of Briesen? I only half believed it because your Majesty praised your swordsmanship skills. I guess you were not exaggerating.”
Plantz was waiting for an answer to his question without saying anything else.
Since I couldn’t have a conversation with Calian where other people could see, I was sure I would have been worried all day.
What did Alan and Evan talk about? Why did the two of you fight like that? And why did Evan go back?
“Do you meet the Marquis often?”
Instead of answering Plantz’s question, Kalian first asked what he was curious about. This was because he knew very well that he was in control of this conversation.
Plantz, who knew that fact, had no choice but to ignore his own question and answer Calian’s question.
“I’ve never met you face to face.”
Calian nodded.
This is because I clearly learned of Evan’s change of heart when he said that he had never met Plants separately.
‘Even if he didn’t know that he had been betrayed by Silike, he was thinking of abandoning Silike first.’
Calian, who understood the situation a little more, opened his mouth.
“Your family was so harmonious that even though you didn’t mess up too much, you started to have problems right away.”
Planz’s eyes turned sharp.
Calian, who had usually only seen the lack of light in those eyes, suddenly felt an unfamiliar feeling.
Calian continued speaking without making any noticeable comment about it.
“I think the Marquis came to see you because of that incident. To check your intentions. Then he ran into my teacher and there was a small fight of pride, and he just went back. So, if you only want your mother to step down, you should take my side more. There is no need to give it to me. If you leave it alone, the Marquis will take down your mother and prepare to send you to Camilon.”
Plantz did not give any particular response to what was just said. I knew that Calian wasn’t done talking, so I just moved my head slightly as if to ask him to continue.
“So, if you are thinking of rejecting your mother and becoming king, meet Evan. If you are not willing to go to Camilon Palace regardless of whether your mother is there or not. I am willing to go, so I will help you.”
Plantz chuckled and opened his mouth.
“I thought I already answered.”
That was Plantz’s clear answer that his intention to hold Calian’s hand had not changed. Because I had no interest in the throne regardless of whether Silike was there or not.
Calian smiled bitterly.
After dying in the war with Kairis, he was revived by Kairis.
I was in a situation where I would join hands with Plants with Arsene in tow.
How can you not laugh?
Calian opened his mouth in a low voice.
Seeing the brother who took his life sitting in the place of the brother for whom he gave his life.
“Okay then. Let me ask you one last question.”
Plantz moved his head once more.
Calian closed his mouth, took a breath, and asked after a while.
“Silike. This time you might make the worst choice. Because I plan on making you do it.”
Calian, who put aside the long expression ‘your brother’s mother,’ spoke in a stern voice.
worst choice.
Plantz’s eyes sank deeply.
Calian looked straight into Plantz’s eyes.
“And I have no intention of bailing out Silike. If you want to hold my hand, be prepared to hold it properly.”
Will you still be able to hold my hand even if the Renicita leaves for Silike are spread across the square? Calian asked. A
deep sneer appeared on Planz’s lips.
Who is that? Even Plantz himself did not know whether it was a mockery towards him.
The sound of heavy rain echoed through the open window.
“On the path my mother worked so hard to walk.” Whether
she died by Lemain’s sword or
by the hand of Evan Brissen.
Or die as a criminal standing in the square.
“I wonder if there is another end… other than that.”
Planz was obviously trying to remain calm, but despite his efforts, he ended his sentence with a voice that faltered mercilessly. And
Calian completely joined hands with Planz.
