Kalianâs head turned to the side.
You have a personality as complex as mine.
Iâm sorry for thinking that you smell like my father and me. I donât think Iâve ever seen a crazy person like you in my life, but if you hear me say things like this, you really are as great as Sir Hertz.
I was trying really hard to keep these words from coming out.
âI think I found someone I liked.â
âIt hasnât been long since I came back here. I really wanted to meet you at least once, but thereâs no way, so Iâve been thinking a lot about how I can meet you, and Iâve met you like this. So I canât help but be happy, Prince.â
Calianâs eyes looked into the distance.
Calian asked, being careful not to reveal his gaze towards Plants.
âThere are many people who have arrived. May I wonder where the Baronâs eyes landed?â
âIsnât that natural?â
Rashid showed his innocent face once again.
âPlanz Rune Kyris.â
The name of the royal family is mentioned as if there is no hesitation.
ââ¦Your Majesty the Crown Prince, Prince.â
âiced coffee.â
Calian quietly lowered his eyes.
He quietly lifted Rashidâs blood-soaked hand and very slowly brushed his black hair.
âYou mean my brother?â
So that the face that says youâre going crazy because itâs fun is covered by that hand. So as not to be revealed.
* * *
I crept my foot back.
Of course, I know it shouldnât be like that. This is something you would do when you see Lucy and Anne walking in the distance without any snacks to take away, but it is definitely not the right thing to do when you spot your boss with whom you had a meal the day before. I didnât know that.
No, still.
The situation is a bit different.
I saw my boss and coworker standing in front of the fountain, holding hands affectionately and holding ice cream in one hand. However, he came there with a bright face and asked how he was doing and how he was doing. When I saw him on my way home from work, he had already finished work and was no longer there. Perhaps that was why, unlike me, he was doing well, so I couldnât say hello to him with envy.
âWhen you were growing your muscles, shouldnât you have also developed your senses?â
Itâs all Scarlettâs fault like chicken breast.
You should have told me the important thing first.
Among the nobles who stopped for a moment around Plants and Hina and then went on their way, pretending like nothing was wrong, Needlen, who desperately prayed that I would not be noticed among their constant gazes, quietly took a step back.
âPink-haired wizard.â
âYes, sir. Hello. How have you been?â
Ahâ¦â¦
Sispanian.
â⦠I see you, Crown Prince Planz. I am sorry.â
It just caught on.
Needlenâs face changed to the color of his hair as he unconsciously sent a greeting that made no sense and was not at all etiquette in front of Plantz, who was looking at him with eyes that asked, âWhat kind of blue-haired crazy wizard are you talking about?â In fact, I couldnât have imagined that that expressionless face contained some kind of worry, like âI guess I was very tired because I worked all night.â
â Hello, division commander. What are you doing here?
Thanks to this, a helping hand came to Needlen, who was looking embarrassed and embarrassed.
Thanks to Needlen, there was no need for a dangerous situation to arise, so Hina mercilessly let go of Planzâs hand, took a bite of the already melted ice cream, and left the remaining ice cream to Plantz for a while.
Needlen, who saw the crown prince naturally taking the ice cream that Hina was eating without saying anything, forgot all his embarrassed feelings and smiled without knowing, and quickly answered.
âMy brotherâs cafe is in front of here, healer. I heard that His Majesty the Crown Prince is outside, so I came to say hello.â
â Oh, I see. I think itâs even nicer to see you outside.
âYes. Me too.â
Hina smiled and nodded, took the ice cream back from Planzâs hand, and took another bite. Realizing that it was the very strawberry ice cream that Kirie had bought me for the first time on a breezy spring day, I felt happy and didnât want to leave any behind.
Needlen looked proud when he saw Hina eating deliciously. And I thought I should tell you that what you are holding now was made by my sister who used Lucy and Anneâs snacks as her staple food.
â Tap, tap, tap!
But the sound of a horse running, which was not suitable for this street, stopped Needlen.
Needlen, who wiped the smile off his face in an instant, stood in front of Plantz and Hina. Then he turned towards where the horses were running. Then, about a dozen knights in black armor without a single family crest were seen approaching quickly.
â Itâs a bit trickyâ¦!
An electric current gathers at the tip of my finger as I try to point at the ice cream.
â Ugh!
At the same time, a thick shield was created in front of Plants and Hina.
âBe careful.â
The wizardâs short words and sudden movements. And those who were surprised by the suspicious knights running quickly left the place. Even though there was quite a commotion, Needlenâs gaze did not stray from the knights.
âHaâ¦â
But then I heard a sigh from behind.
This comes from the mouth of the Crown Prince, who is so used to this situation that he is immediately locked inside the shield when he feels the atmosphere is a little bad, and is completely irritated.
My younger brother is acting like that now, but why are you even doing this to the pink haired wizard? Was my sword only visible to my eyes? Plantz, who was staring at the back of Needlenâs head with those exact eyes, opened his mouth again.
âDivision commander.â
âYes, Vice Commander.â
âPut it away.â
âyes?â
âBecause itâs Siegfried.â
ââ¦â¦ yes?â
It is a silenced bomb made and trained for emergency situations. If you had called in reinforcements using that, isnât there a high possibility that you wouldnât be able to reveal your affiliation? Therefore, Needlen, who had no way of knowing that he had come with all the marks representing his family removed, looked ahead again.
â Diverse.
The horses that had come a short distance slowed down and stamped their feet several times in the same manner as Demireaâs horse. The knights who confirmed this got off their horses and walked straight toward the person who had summoned them and who might know the whereabouts of Demirea.
One of the knights standing in front showed an example with moderation.
âMeeting His Majesty the Crown Prince. This is Ronansite, the chief knight of the Siegfried family.â
Needlen realized that the face of the woman with her long hair tied high was familiar, so she lifted the shield. And he spoke on behalf of Plantz, who had just been greeted.
âThis is Needlen Zeia, the Balkan division commander. What is going on here in Siegfried?â
âI think we should ask why you called the knights here. Where is the Duke?â
The shield was lifted, but it was still blocking Plantzâs path. It was true that he was Siegfriedâs knight, and it was true that he was a knight with a familiar face, but the fact that he left his familyâs emblem behind was considered very strange.
âI donât have time to explain.â
Why are there the Crown Prince and Balkan people instead of the Little Duke?
Those people who suddenly appeared arenât even Prince Calian, so why are they all covered up and dressed in black?
Plantz, completely ignoring Ronansite and Needlenâs questions, looked at Hina.
âIf you ate it all.â
Hina nodded. Then he rushed over, threw away the cup of ice cream he had finished eating, and grabbed the wings of Tuntunâs saddle. Plantz, who personally helped the short Hina step on the stirrups, climbed onto Estina.
Soon Planzâs head moved.
He looked down at the wizards and knights standing very awkwardly with each other and spoke in a low voice.
âFollow me.â
ââ¦Where are you going?â
âFollow me.â
The kind of person my brother is is that once he starts barking, he disappears, but he was unable to bark as much as he wanted at a red bird he met a few days ago and held back for a long time. He used up so much patience that he didnât already have that day that he might bite instead of barking this time. I wasnât going to go with Hina today, but after thinking about it after my sister went there, I decided I probably wouldnât be able to go there.
If my younger brother bites anyone, the Little Duke, who only knows how to stop people, probably wonât be able to handle it.
âBecause the Little Duke canât catch my brother.â
Plantz, who had folded up his long words and laid them down, leisurely took the lead. If I meet Balkan members on the way, I take them with me, but if I donât meet them, whatever. It will come to you on its own.
It was such a light hearted feeling.
It was like that until then.
â Do not come. go back.
Thatâs why, after entering Naerangsha, I saw my younger brother sending me a sign language while being careful not to be noticed by someone standing nearby on the rooftop of a building in the distance â right now
. go back.
â why.
So, even when I gave the answer to my younger brother as if I was talking to Hina.
â You may not believe it, but thereâs a crazy person here.
When he couldnât understand the harsh words mixed in, he showed the same thing to Hina and asked her what it meant, and then when Hina, who had a normal face, lifted one of her fingers and rolled it around next to her head to tell him the meaning. Even when Hina wrote a word on the palm of the handsomely grown crown prince, who did not even understand the gesture.
â believe.
â â¦No, not me. Another crazy guy.
Plantz wasnât too worried.
Because I was shrouded in darkness, I didnât know the identity of this crazy guy who was so crazy that my brother recognized him as crazy.
â Speak informally.
Because I didnât know who Calian had encountered.
* * *
How long has it been since I was helplessly stabbed by a knife?
I tried to gauge it, trying to calm my mind, which was starting to fail. But it didnât come to mind right away. Not only had I never had anything like that in the last few years that I could clearly remember, but the feeling of the bundle of cloth in my wound and my broken collarbone constantly poking my skin interrupted my thoughts.
With Calian nearby, I wanted to sleep peacefully, but I couldnât.
How can one sleep in front of people who are unable to leave the injured person sitting against the wall and donât know what to do because they canât even check on him thanks to the 3rd Princeâs black words that block anyone who comes?
âdo not die.â
Below article. After seeing that face, I couldnât lose my mind.
So I thought again.
Donât fall asleep or lose your mind.
So, Iâ¦
got stabbed like this.
â¦â¦ Itâs been a while.
âSir Bridget.â
I heard a voice.
Aila opened her eyes, glad to hear a voice that would wake her up even if she didnât think about it. I saw someone with two black horses behind them.
âDo you know who I am?â
ââ¦â¦Siegfried. Minor Duke.â
Raven, who was standing in Ailaâs way, was the only one who made way. The person who came so close and confirmed that Aila had come to her senses.
Demirea nodded slightly. Then, he put aside the purple jacket and vest that were lying on the floor, took off his dark-colored jacket and laid it on the floor. And then Ailaâs body was slowly laid down. Even though I had someone to take care of me, there was no need to make me sit still.
âWhere is the prince?â
âRooftop. I went to see Rashid Brissen.â
Demireaâs eyes hardened after hearing the unexpected name. Then he nodded and answered.
âAll right.â
I know that since he was not in a state of immediate death, he would have left it like this. Still, I needed to know how injured I was before I could decide whether to go to Astrisha, where Hina was, or go to the palace and wait for her. Therefore, instead of going to where Calian would be, Demirea carefully looked at Aelaâs condition.
It looks like the collarbone or shoulder is broken. I have a severe fever.
I donât know how much blood was shed, but the smell of blood was quite strong. The wound on his back was already well bandaged, and no blood was oozing out of the bandage.
It is worth knowing what method Calian used to stop the bleeding. Therefore, after thinking for a moment, Demirea opened her mouth.
âIf Viscount Bern asks, just say that I took action. Itâs a skill too familiar to be said to have been done by a prince.â
âI was thinking of answering that I did it. Isnât that strangeâ¦â
âI canât do this on my own.â
âThatâs right. Okay.â
Dmirea, seeing the person who had not even come to his senses answering calmly, shook his head. This is because I remembered that Calian, who had been brought dead to the Dukeâs residence, did not show a single sign of pain throughout the treatment.
Itâs terrible.
I never thought there would be someone else who suits those words so well.
âIâll be going to the palace soon, so you can relax.â
âI will do that when I get to the palace.â
Siegfriedâs knights would have arrived in Astricia a long time ago, and Balkan members would have arrived nearby as soon as possible. I think it would be a good idea to bite the people gathered around them before they come and make more noise. Because of this, Demireaâs movement as she stood up and turned around stopped for a moment.
People on the street were already retreating. Lightly armed soldiers could be seen walking through the created street.
Neither Siegfriedâs knights nor Balkans.
It was the capitalâs guard.
âYouâre coming quickly.â
Demirea let go of her words and took a step forward.
Then he slowly moved his feet and blocked the guardâs path.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
