Reborn as the Enemy Prince

Chapter 18. Because he had a lot (4)

Kalian tapped the table with his finger.

This is the second habit that appears when you have something to think about.

There were quite a few people around, but it wasn’t noisy. So Calian was careful not to make any sound with his fingertips so as not to disturb other people’s stories.

A conference hall where regular meetings of the central nobility are held.

After the coming-of-age ceremony, where Calian was also present, the youngest-looking nobleman sitting around a large round table was talking.

“It is said that Tensil suffered a lot of damage due to the heavy rains early this year.”

– That spring, unprecedented flood damage occurred in Tensil.

– Tensil’s priests said it was because of a lack of respect for Serenti, but others said it was because the waterway was blocked for the construction of a canal.

In fact, Calian didn’t like going to meetings that much.

This is because he did not feel comfortable when information that only Calian knew was mentioned because he had gone against time.

“If there is a flood, wouldn’t the biggest shortage be food?”

– Kairis provided food to help, but Tensil refused.

– Because of this, the relationship between the two countries was not good for a while.

The same goes for this case.

At least in Kairis, Kalian was the only one who knew what would happen with the ‘food’ mentioned now.

That’s why I’m worried.

“So I think it would be good to support wheat to maintain friendly relations between our two countries.”

Should I shut up that insidious bastard or just let him talk?

Kairis and Tensil had different wheat harvest times.

Even if there was flood damage, Tensil’s wheat, which was last harvested in January, was safely stored in storage in each estate. Even though there were some shortcomings, an abundance of wheat was provided, so both the rejecter and the rejected party were bound to feel hurt.

In other words, this was Briesen’s plan to narrow Randel’s position by driving distance between the two countries.

Seeing the same events as Calian’s memories repeating themselves, it seemed like Brisen had no intention of siding with Randel yet. Either he had Planz in mind, or he still had feelings for Calian.

“If you make a decision, I will appoint a person in charge, Your Highness.”

Anyway, if Randel’s position were to be narrowed, he would have left that mouth alone, but Calian couldn’t do that. Isn’t the Fallun Merchant Marine, which is providing a lot of help to Kalian’s treasury, trading diamonds with Tensil?

‘Should I step forward? Should I just leave it alone?’

Having Alan, Kirie, and Melfir by my side and creating a wizard group. This is what Calian did using the information he knew.

‘That alone is changing the future quite a bit. Can I directly interfere in matters that will affect the relationship between the two countries for the sake of profit?’

Calian’s brows narrowed as his worries deepened.

But then I heard something unexpected.

“It’s not necessary.”

It was Lemain.

LeMaine’s next words were almost identical to what Calian had thought. Lemain already knew exactly why wheat was not needed.

Calian’s fingers paused for a moment.

And the finger drew a small curve on the table.

He created a smile that couldn’t be put on his face with his fingertips.

‘Your Highness in the past knew that that opinion was wrong, but was unable to refute it.’

So in the end, the mere presence of Calian had already changed many things. Because of this, Kalian opened his mouth with a lighter heart.

“If you apply.”

When the three princes, who had been sitting quietly until now, opened their mouths for the first time, everyone in the hall looked at Calian. And Calian gave the correct answer in a relaxed voice.

“I think it would be a good idea to send salt. Right now, Tensil’s salt farms and salt storage facilities are probably submerged in water.”

Lemain was seen smiling slightly as he looked at Calian.

‘I guess it won’t work.’

And Marquis Evan Briesen, who was watching this, made an expression that he was not surprised.

‘Whether it was his intention or not, isn’t that guy interfering with Brisen’s work again? ‘I shouldn’t join hands with that guy.’

In the end, Evan decided to meet Plantz in order to win Randel’s hand. To find out whether Plantz knew about Aisha or not.

* * *

After the Central Noble Meeting ended.

Evan, who had asked to meet with Plants, exchanged proper goodbyes with the nobles and then moved on to the meeting place. Plantz, who did not need to say hello to others separately, was already waiting for Evan.

In fact, Evan didn’t know much about Plants.

It didn’t have a very good reputation because it resembled Silike in many ways.

And that he joined hands with Calian.

For that reason, I thought I would never join hands with Plants. And because of what happened during the meeting, I was very inclined toward Randel.

However, Evan was able to realize one more thing right after he saw Planz looking at him while sitting in the reception room of Senyu Pavilion.

‘I guess I was wrong.’

This is because it was difficult to find any ill feelings toward Evan anywhere on Plantz’s face.

“I thought the prince would be reluctant to see my face.”

“Is there a reason why I should do that?”

Of course, Plantz had no reason to have special feelings toward Evan.

Since it was Plantz himself who decided to oust Silike in the first place, there was no reason to keep Evan away just because he helped in that task.

However, Evan, who does not know why Plantz made such a decision, came to make an incorrect assumption when he saw Plantz treating him now.

‘Is it because Plantz didn’t get along with Silike so well that he temporarily joined hands with Calian and drove out Silike?’

Called.

So, after thinking about this, Evan slightly changed his mind.

‘I should have met this guy before Calian. If this guy really doesn’t have any hostility towards me, it would be best to join hands with this guy, not Calian or Randel.’

For a moment, Evan regretted going to Calian first and being treated like that. Then he walked over to Plantz, gave him a simple example, and then sat down across from him and talked to him.

“How much trouble have you had so far?”

It was a sound that came out as a result of thinking for a while while walking in front of Planz.

After hearing Evan’s first words, Plantz curled up one corner of his mouth.

Because Plantz understood that Evan viewed him as a ‘good-to-use tool’.

From then on, the smart Planz began to treat Evan ‘properly’.

* * *

Calian had a look on his face that made it difficult to hold back laughter.

I thought Evan would just take a look at the planz and leave.

I thought that if Kalian knew the secret about Aisha, he would keep reaching out to Kalian, and if it seemed like he didn’t, he would tell Randel.

He said he wouldn’t think of making Planz on his side, as it was clear that they would be at odds with each other due to the silique.

But Briesen chose Planz.

“Thank you for your good thinking, brother.”

Planz had no intention of becoming king himself.

However, he had no intention of appointing Randel as king.

That’s why Plantz held onto Evan’s heart to prevent him from going to Randel.

After building up my pride, I joined hands with Evan.

Plantz smiled at Calian, who was making a cheeky comment again, and opened his mouth.

“Bulkan work. I’ll take charge of it starting tomorrow.”

“Yes. If you do that, it will look like you deliberately took on Balkan’s affairs after joining hands with Evan. I wonder how much the Marquis of Brissen will like it when he thinks that even the power of Balkan is in Brissen’s hands.”

Calian, who nodded while saying this, continued speaking.

“Then the relationship between you and me will have to deteriorate somewhat after that.”

“Sounds like it was a good time.”

Calian grinned at those words.

“Anyway, within a few days, I will do something that will cause trouble between me and Briseen. It will be seen that my second brother, who helped me at best, is angry at me for joining hands with Briseen.”

“okay.”

Plantz didn’t ask what it was.

That’s because I wasn’t that curious and thought it would be taken care of.

Kalian also did not tell Planz specifically what to do in the Balkans. I’ll take care of it.

Only Arsene, who will welcome the man called the Mad King as his superior, will face hardships.

Of course, it was none of Calian’s concern.

* * *

Sometime in the past, Alan looked at Kyrie and asked:

‘Do you intend to become the Sixth Sword?’

There was a reason for such an unexpected question.

18 hours a day.

This is the time when Kyrie locks herself in Calian’s training room and practices swordsmanship. Whether you learn from Kalian, spar with Kalian, or practice alone. Kirie finished the day only after completing that time.

It wasn’t what Kalian ordered. I was doing that myself.

‘I was wondering if the prince would like to increase the number of sword masters he reduced by one.’

And then I thought I was asking a stupid question. Anyone who holds a sword would want that, so I thought it was a pointless question.

But unexpectedly, Kirie shook her head.

A small but not confident voice gave an answer.

‘no. I just want to be a sword that the prince can use.’

‘It’s a sword worthy of being used by the prince. Actually, wouldn’t that be more difficult?’

Because Calian was already strong in his own right.

‘yes. To become a sword worthy of use by the prince, it is not enough to follow the path of the sword.’

Alan was quick-witted, but even Alan found it difficult to understand Kyrie.

Jan had been serving Calian for a long time anyway, and Arsene happened to have a crush on Calian. Of course, Alan knew full well why he was helping Calian.

Calian said he cared for Kirie because he had a past as Bern, but he didn’t tell Kirie all about that past. To be precise, he did not tell us why Kirie followed him or what happened in Kirie’s past.

I couldn’t figure out what it was that this quiet boy saw in Kalian that made him decide to sacrifice his life to Kalian.

‘It’s a useful sword. ‘You’re setting out to do something very difficult.’

However, since Alan was Alan, he did not bother to ask Kirie about his true feelings and just responded like this.

“Kiri.”

And Calian summoned that useful sword.

After that, he asked, instructing on one thing that would cause a bad relationship with Briseen.

“Can you do it?”

It was the same question I asked once.

Kirie knew that Calian wouldn’t blame her even if she answered ‘I can’t’. So I answered right away.

“yes.”

Kalian just nodded without saying another word this time, and Kyrie also left Kalian’s room after saying a simple greeting.

And that night.

A brown horse came out of the palace.

The place the horse was heading to was a bar with a very strange name.

– Cispanian’s deep smell of

alcohol Kyrie, who went there on her own, pulled out the sword that Calian had given her. And without hesitation, I entered the bar.

“Do you have company?”

The clerk’s eyes as he asked that question fell on the sword in Kirie’s hand.

When he took a step back with a wary look in his eyes, Kirie held up her finger and pointed to the lower floor without another word.

“I would appreciate it if you would just open the door.”

The clerk nodded and ran to open the room with the secret door.

Kirie entered the room leading down and opened the secret passage as Calian had told her. Then, she passed the third floor and went to the fourth floor.

A place full of swearing, shouting and cheering.

When Kirie arrived there, she tightened her grip on the sword in her hand.

And then he moved towards the office where Calian had entered a long time ago to retrieve Kyrie.
