Pendelia.
Now I know what that name is.
âThat one over there. Itâs a medicine made from Pendelia.â
There was a large plant in the direction Arsene pointed. It has wide, slightly split leaves attached to a green stem with brown spots. It was something I had seen before.
I remembered someone saying that they didnât like the fruit, which was green on the outside and pink on the inside.
âI got it from the healer Sir Bern to use it after sparring with the prince. Since I canât call a healer, let alone a healer, it would be better to use some medicine. This may be my first time seeing Pendeliaâ¦â âI know
. âWhat is it?â
âHow does Prince Planz know such a thing?â
He said that he had been drinking and rolled down a cliff, but when he opened his eyes, he felt like everything was stuck to his body. Plantz, who remembered without forgetting a single word what Calian had told him in the city of elves, answered quietly.
âMy brother told me that he once fell off a cliff when he had too much to drink.â
ââ¦â¦ ah.â
Unfortunately, Arsene did not understand the true meaning of Planzâs words.
Would the treatment of royal family be different just because they were Secretariat? Nevertheless, one can roughly guess what would have happened if raw, unprocessed grass had been applied to the princeâs body.
âAh⦠Anyway, use Prince Planz.â
âRather than me.â
Plantz frowned at Estinaâs movements as she walked up the hill, which was not very steep, and stopped talking. This is because the pain came. Estina was a horse that did not have rough steps, but she was not as careful as Raven, who was careful not to shake her masterâs body even when walking on this path.
Before I knew it, the bleeding at the wound had stopped and it was healing little by little. However, it was difficult to get used to the sensation felt every time the open wound moved.
Planz took a moment to catch his breath, control the sharp feeling, and then spoke.
âI think my brother needs it.â
âFendelia is a slightly toxic herb. In general, it doesnât matter, but if the prince uses it now, itâs not good.â
Plantz, who was looking at the medicine bottle handed to him by Arsene with his long arm outstretched, turned his head. I saw a black-haired crazy guy lying on top of Raven, unconscious.
Arsene was breathing better than when he first placed Calian on Ravenâs saddle, and his purple lips were gradually returning to their original state. Isnât this the blessing of a Sispanian who ignores a hangover and heals an injury even if it doesnât relieve oneâs excessive greed?
I remembered the image of my younger brother leaning on Raven a little while ago.
There is one sword cut on the arm and one on the waist.
That alone makes Plantz so nervous, so how can he stand there without frowning at all?
Is it terrible? Am I ignorant? Or is it familiar?
I canât figure it out.
Plantz let out a short sigh and briefly squeezed and unclenched his bloodless hand, exposed under the moonlight. And then he opened his mouth in a lower voice.
âWizard.â
âyes.â
âHow many wizards can survive when they face them?â
âAre you talking about Xeon? Siren Siren will probably survive without difficulty, but for the rest, including me, it will depend on the situation. You know that I almost died too.â
strong.
I couldnât forget the look the last dead warrior of Zeon gave me. I stepped forward without knowing, and Kalian blocked me, so I couldnât aim my sword, but if I had, would I have survived?
well.
Probably would never have survived.
Planz, who had been thinking about this for a while, extended his uninjured arm to Arsene.
âGive it to me.â
âWhat are you asking for?â
âRevised version.â
ââ¦How did you know I had it?â
Arsene, who was saying this and taking out the expensive crystal tablet, reminded Plantz that he did not have the wizardâs bag, and put it back and said,
âIâll give it to you when I get back.â
âDonât use it.â
âWhy are you asking me to return a large crystal board that you donât even have a place for? Are you saying youâre afraid Iâll use it as I please?â
Plantz responded to Arsene, who was looking at him with eyes that said he was not wearing out.
âYou already wrote it.â
Arseneâs mouth closed quietly.
Arsene, who was looking at Calian for a moment, or more precisely at Calianâs gaze, asked in a whisper.
âHow did you know I wrote a revised version?â
âI hope you didnât call Marquis Manasil.â
Itâs really difficult to talk to Planz.
When I asked him how he knew, he said something strange again.
I had a hard time understanding that he was asking this because he already knew that Arsene had contacted Reric with the crystal version and talked to Alan before coming to help the princes.
âIâm so scared that I canât even drink water in front of Prince Planz. I think heâll find out what I ate three days ago based on the water I drink.â
Even in the midst of his pain, Planz did not miss Arsene calling him âPrince Planzâ again. Isnât there only one reason for Arsene to talk like that in front of Planz?
Through Allen, he had just recently stepped down from his position as deputy commander.
âDonât you know whatâs even more surprising than not knowing?â
âI just dropped my rank. If youâre a soldier, you wonât be able to catch anyone here.â
Unlike Euria, who caught people without looking at the situation, Arsene was a wizard who caught people without looking at the situation. So, before joining the fight, I called Alan over for a moment and spoke to him. âOur Coco is using the carriage made by Sispanian and maintained by the corps commander very comfortably.â
After hearing that, Alan carefully relieved Arsene of his position on the spot, and Arsene calmly returned to being just a blue-haired crazy wizard whose only affiliation was Vulcan.
âIt seems like Marquis Manasil noticed that something was going on, but he said he wouldnât come here. He said he would be very angry if he did, so I told him to wait since itâs still okay.â
âokay.â
After answering briefly, Planz closed his mouth again. As Estina entered the downhill slope, it was partly because she moved her body once more and partly because she was lost in thought.
Arsene, who was staring at Plantz, turned his gaze to Sinastar.
I saw something a little while ago that I had not seen before because it had been in the sheath the entire time. I looked at the words written on the blue-silver sword in Calianâs hand.
When I think of that, my heart becomes complicated.
I wonder what happened in the past to write so carefully the letters to be engraved on the sword of that short-tempered prince.
âIt doesnât matter, right?â
Suddenly, Plantz said this. Before I knew it, the person turned his head and his light green eyes were staring intently at Arsene.
âNo matter who wrote it. No matter what happened. Now.â
ââ¦Did you know it was my handwriting?â
âRoughly.â
After literally answering roughly, Plantz closed his eyes.
It hurt and it was annoying to explain.
A silent sigh escaped Arseneâs mouth as he looked at Planz for a moment.
âI thought about it because I didnât think he would have given that name to just anyone and engraved it. I guess there was no one who could have been by his side. Since the blue-haired crazy wizard was with him until the end, I thought that if there was someone, it would have been the blue-haired crazy wizard. â
But Plantz, who seemed not to answer, continued:
I didnât recognize Arseneâs handwriting, but I thought that Arsene, who was with Planz in the past until the end, when there was no one next to him unlike now, would have asked him to do something like that. It was a vague prediction, but I was convinced thanks to Arseneâs reaction when he looked at Sinasta today.
âI also think about how barren I must have lived to have someone like this by my side.â
Arsene, who almost looked at Planz with sad eyes for a moment, quickly came to his senses.
Planz looked down at the sword for a moment, which made him think deeply about throwing it away thanks to finding out who wrote the letter, even though he knew the meaning well, and frowned slightly again due to the pain from the cut. I didnât even see Arsene, who had been robbed of what he wanted to say, look like he was chewing on coco shit.
Arsene thought that if he said, âWould I have wanted to be next to someone like you?â, it would be considered insulting to the royal family and he could be cut down in Balkan, but Arsene decided to endure it and pass it on, thinking that making a statue and cutting it down would not be the life of a wizard. turned.
At that reaction, Plantz laughed and Arsene laughed.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
âAre you laughing?â
âItâs coming out. Why?â
âEven though the crazy blue-haired wizard who followed me around is no longer following me.â
âIt doesnât matter. That too.â
I know what Arsene means.
In the past, at least Arsene was by his side, but now there is no one to stand next to him, so he asks if he is okay. As the knight of Secretia said so and Calian also worried about it.
âNot really. Lucy and Anne are there. Why?â
Maybe I wanted someone in particular to be by my side. I gave this answer because I had never once considered it regrettable.
Itâs enough to just have one servant following along, whining about every incident, and Vulcan coming up with newer thoughts as if heâs updating himself every day. A black cat that barks every day and tries to bite you when it gets tired is too much for you, so what can you do with a crazy blue-haired wizard next to you? My head just hurts.
After giving an honest answer, Plantz looked ahead.
A small palace with a huge garden began to come into view in the distance.
* * *
Birds are faster than horses.
A lot had happened, but it didnât take a long time, so it was still the middle of the night. Nevertheless, when we arrived at Louiseâs villa, about ten people quietly came out and greeted the three of us. It seems that Chase was contacted before Calianâs group arrived.
The knights placed Calian on a stretcher and carried him to the bedroom. As Arsene watched with his eyes wide open, both Calian and Plantz received appropriate treatment.
The reason it is called appropriate treatment is because the people here heard that Chase was a servant of someone they could trust, but they did not fully believe it, so they did not take or apply the medicine they gave him. Plantz only used the medicine Arsene brought him, and Calian did not allow him to do even that until the detoxification was complete.
â Is there anything else you need, Prince Planz?
â â¦â¦ banana.
â You mean bananas?
â many.
After that, I didnât know when Kalian would wake up, so I had him pile some bananas next to the bed and went to the window a little away from the bed Kalian was lying on. Until Calian woke up or the palace sent more of Calianâs people, Arsene had to watch the guard alone, so it was difficult for him to sit comfortably in his own room.
I was hurt, but she was hurt even more, so I couldnât rest properly, but I decided not to complain too much since I brought it on myself anyway.
â Saaaaâ¦â¦.
A truly quiet place with a view of the sea in the distance.
The room on the highest floor had one entire wall made of glass. As I stood in front of it and looked out the window for a while, I heard the sound of tree branches rustling in the wind. As I was quietly listening to the sound, something caught my eye in the darkness.
â sparkle.
blue light.
A blue light was hovering in a large garden.
It couldnât have been a wizardâs light, but I didnât know what it was, so I looked at it for a while, and the blue light that was shining on one side soon began to spread out little by little. Before long, the entire garden began to glow green.
It didnât take long to find out what it was. The blue cluster of lights spread out like light seeds scattered in the wind and began to rise into the sky.
In this place where only flowers were planted to commemorate someone in a large garden, the second blooming flower was turning blue and emerging under the moonlight.
âThis is Sinasta.â
okay.
It was Sinastar.
Plantz turned his head.
The guy who couldnât stand the bird sat up and was looking out the window.
âwhy.â
âI just woke up.â
A cracked voice came out.
Plantz just nodded because he didnât know that he was someone who could only sleep properly when Alan or Kyrie were by his side or when he was lying down in his own room in Chermil.
âBlood.â
âIt has stopped. Feeling is coming back to my back.â
âokay.â
The blessing of Sispanian, who moved steadily despite the use of force, has been deciphered. I started treating my wounds.
By the way, looking at the pain in his back, Calian looked around for a moment, laughing as he thought he must have been hit in the back at that time. Then he stopped his head and held his breath for a moment.
âDid Brother Chase tell you about this place?â
âI heard itâs Concubine Louiseâs villa. I donât know where it is.â
Calian lifted his palms and covered his face.
A laugh escaped out.
âYou canât know.â
Even if it wasnât the light of Sinastar, which was bluer than the stars, it was still enough to see inside the room.
Black sheets without a pattern, dark gray curtains, dark brown furniture with no shine. A desolate room without a single picture frame or vase. The place I visited occasionally was decorated just as I remembered.
I thought it was gone, but it seems not.
â⦠Itâs my room.â
Queen Deannaâs villa.
And it was Bernâs room that had been prepared there.
Calian laughed for quite a long time as he faced the traces of Bern, who had not lived through this time.
Chase must have thought a lot about whether or not to give this room to Calian. He must have been worried that he got hurt and that he might become depressed while looking at this place. Nevertheless, I laughed because I thought I knew why they bothered to tell me about this villa and why Kalyan was in this room.
âI guess the meaning of my name isnât completely wrong.â
Plantz looked at Calian blankly.
âIf I ask, will you tell me now?â
Calian tried to shrug his shoulders as was his habit, but stopped because his back was throbbing, and then opened his mouth again.
âNo. Iâm not going to tell you the meaning of your name, so why would I tell you my old name?â
ââ¦â¦ okay.â
Calian chuckled at the momentary expression of irritation on his face and looked out the window.
âAnyway, itâs fun.â
âwhat.â
âLord Hertz said that. Youâve fought enough, so now you should rest. Kirie told me not to stop, but I donât know how the two have different personalities and what they say.â
Plantz did not answer. Instead, a small, cracked, blood-filled tone followed.
âI was so happy when Sir Hertz came to visit me a little while ago. As I was looking at Sir Hertz, a thought occurred to me. In the end, I thought I might have been waiting for Sir Hertz to come last time as well. Actually, I was both happy and sad when he told me not to stop. . When he told me to rest, I felt both sad and happy.â
Now, Iâm saying this as if Iâm complaining to Plants, but honestly, it was so hard and overwhelming.
âThatâs also interesting. In the end, I ended up waiting for Lord Hertz twice on this earth. But the reasons were so different.â
ââ¦â¦ okay.â
Calianâs voice gradually subsided.
âThat doesnât mean I liked it.â
âknow.â
âSo you wonât experience the same thing twice.â
âknow.â
âDonât worry and rest. Because of you, there wonât be a war this time. I wonât let that happen.â
ââ¦Speak informally.â
âI got hurt like this because of my brother, but you donât even notice that?â
Planz frowned without answering.
Calian, who got a few informal words for the price of one wound, laughed softly once again.
A wave of blue light shimmered, illuminating Calianâs face and rising into the sky. Calian lay down again on the bed filled with the familiar scent and soon fell asleep. Even though neither Kirie nor Allen were there, he fell into a deep sleep.
Just a few hours later.
â All of Secretiaâs soldiers who went to Bridget Forest died.
Until Plantz, who received this call from Chase, woke up his sleeping brother.
