Chapter 465

the bracelet on the innocent (4) wrist was left intact.

In that state, I only lost my disguise for a moment.

The same was true for Plants, who watched his younger brother’s hair turn black from behind. However, Planz did not completely remove his disguise and only changed his face. Since I had to take on the form of Calian again when I left Freyr’s study anyway, there was no need to change my body.

– I found it.

At that time, these words came into Calian’s head. It was Aila’s voice.

– There is an old, nameless grave.

– How long has it been?

-There’s nothing written. The tombstone isn’t very old… I guess it’s only a few years old.

– okay.

– Is this really Freyr’s tomb?

– huh. If it’s true that I stole it correctly.

– Then you’re right.

– maybe.

I found out that someone I thought was alive was dead.

I found out that someone I thought was dead was alive.

– If you go to investigate the background to releasing the harpy, you will find out that. I heard something strange. Of course.

– That’s right… it would have been better if I hadn’t known.

I wish I didn’t know.

– The prince. are you okay?

– Come back when you’re done. Be careful. Ayla.

– all right. I won’t interfere.

– huh.

After finishing the conversation, Calian looked at ‘Freyr’.

A thin voice resonates in the study.

“Whitlin. I thought you were dead. You.”

I have already experienced the experience of someone thought dead coming back to life.

This does not mean that time goes back and people who have died come back to life. It is true that they are dead. Everyone who had shared Bern’s life died, and not a single one was brought back to life. Even Bern. Even Bern.

So, it wasn’t like leaving them behind and thinking they had come back to life. It wasn’t about them, it was about Aila. It was referring to the white suri. Didn’t they both come back alive and well?

After learning that fact, Aila took it back. The white eagle killed again. Of course, Calian also tried to send Aila back to the execution table. If Aela hadn’t fallen into Calian’s hands, I’m sure Calian would have done that.

However, the reason they tried to kill the white eagle and send Aila to the death row was not because of their ‘anger at being brought back alive.’ The fact that those two had faked their deaths was not something that Calian should be angry about.

“I didn’t know he was alive and pretending to be the dead Freyr. I didn’t believe it until right before I came in here. Hey, could it be that I’ll experience three times where a cub I thought was dead appears before my eyes? That’s what I thought. But.”

It was different now.

“He’s alive. Whitlin. I expected it. Really.”

Life burst out.

Because of anger.

Freyr’s reaction upon hearing the name Whitlin and the fact that he was completely convinced by the story told by Eila made him angry enough to turn back. I was completely angry because I had witnessed a situation that could not be understood even if I gave a thousand reasons.

“They say elves can’t lie. Is that a lie?”

Below article.

Kalyan can’t lie, but he’s good at imitating others. They say elves can’t eat meat, but Siona can’t live without meat.

“Why aren’t you answering? We need to talk about whether what I said is right or not.”

“… The prince said, ”

Don’t talk nonsense and just answer. Whether it’s true or not.”

I looked for Whitlin with blood-soaked eyes and a crushed voice. He urged me to answer with a face that said I absolutely did not want to hear it.

‘Freyr’ raised his eyes. And then I looked into Calian’s red eyes. I looked at a face that looked exactly like Freya. His eyes were making it difficult to tell whether he was looking at Calian or Freya beyond him.

– Sweet.

I took off the necklace I had been wearing under my shirt and put it down.

“yes.”

A distinctly different voice was directed at Calian.

It wasn’t just the voice that became thinner. The face changed, the height decreased, and the body changed. The protruding uvula disappeared and the hair became a little longer. The neck and wrists became thinner and the eyes changed. Gender has changed.

Silver hair. black eye.

“It’s not dead.”

I returned to Whitlin, who looked just like Hina.

“…… under.”

The voice of Planz, who would never forget the face he saw in the portrait, was heard. In this way, Calian, who had confirmed the fact once again, began to become even more vicious.

‘I don’t know your last name. I know very little about the two of you. In fact, I found out my siblings’ names thanks to finding a letter my mother left behind.’

‘It was written that my father passed away not long after my younger brother was born. I think my mother passed away from a sudden illness after that. It may not be exact, but that’s what the letter said.’

“I heard it was written in a letter.”

‘My sister died by herself…’

“… Hina. Kirie. I heard you wrote down her name.”

“Yes. I wrote it down like that and gave it to Freya.”

“In that case, I should have found out who Kirie was. I should have found out first.”

I should have known the names of the siblings I brought into this territory. I should have known what my knight’s name was.

“If I didn’t recognize it and forgot about it, and whatever the reason, I would get caught like this.”

If you didn’t know

I wish I could forget it.

“You should be dead.”

If that were the case, I should have died.

– I’m sorry, Prince.

– Have you met Ayla?

– yes. I briefly borrowed Sir Brigitte’s ring. Are you at the conference hall?

– huh. It’s a conference hall. What’s going on?

– Because of what I just heard, I… have something to tell you.

‘I might have lived a happier life if my parents were there. ‘I don’t know because I don’t know.’

‘I think I lived really hard and well. I just want to live like that from now on.’

– …… no way.

– Did I hear it wrong?

– Wrong… Yes. You must have heard wrong.

– If it’s true, prince.

– When I go out, I will meet Freyr. I can tell if you’re lying or not when I see it. Let me ask. I’ll ask and let you know.

– If it’s true. I will meet you too.

At least if you don’t know, forget, and die.

– okay. Kyrie.

At least to Kirie.

Of course, to Kirie.

“…You should be dead.”

I shouldn’t have been caught by Kirie…

* * *

– Tinkle… Tinkle.

Siona’s long ears perked up as she absentmindedly tapped the bell attached to the end of the handle. Siona took her gaze away from the bell and raised her head. This is because I felt Calian’s life.

Siona instinctively relaxed her tense neck muscles and tapped the tips of her ears before looking at the Lord’s Castle a little distance away and opening her mouth. But the person next to me spoke first.

“I guess my mother is alive.”

It was Kirie.

Instead of saying the words she was planning to say, Siona nodded and spoke in a somewhat subdued voice.

“So, the three princes will commit suicide like that.”

“yes.”

“You seem very angry.”

“Perhaps… there are some facts about my siblings that only the prince knows.”

The Hina of the past… maybe.

It’s something that Kalian will never tell you about, but Kirie is expecting at first glance. That’s probably why he gets so angry.

“okay.”

Siona, who still didn’t think much of Rashid’s comment that ‘black cats smell like sea salt’, shook her head without another question.

After staring at Kirie for quite some time, who didn’t even turn her head towards the castle, I heard Kirie’s voice again.

“He’s definitely passed away.”

“Did you see it in person?”

“Yes. I saw it myself. Even though I was young, I saw it clearly. I remember feeling cold. I also saw the village people asking for my mother.”

Siona, who had not responded for a while, opened her mouth.

“Faking death is actually not difficult.”

“… Yes. I know.”

Sugar-shaped medicine.

Kirie also knows the medicine that can stop the heart. Didn’t you see Calian handling it? I know that there are many ways to fake death, even without such drugs.

But why bother? why. I just don’t know that.

“Did you know?”

“You mean the fact that Whitlin was alive?”

“yes.”

“After I gave you all the letters that day and handed over all the money I had, I starved all day until I met my teacher again.”

Kyrie chuckled.

If I had known that Whitlin was alive, would I have given her all the money and left her behind? No matter how difficult it is to force two children to take them to Whitlin, it is better than starving.

“Why don’t you go to the forest? You could have hunted.”

“It was a place where I was supposed to wait for my teacher, so I couldn’t even go out because I was afraid our paths would cross.”

“I will definitely treat you to a meal after this is over.”

“It’s good.”

Siona, who responded as if nothing had happened, turned her head again. The sound of the bell rang once more due to the movement.

As I listen to it, my eyes inevitably fall on the lord’s castle.

“I wanted to bring you here by force.”

“No, that’s not it.”

Kirie, who answered as if there was nothing to worry about, opened her mouth again.

“I lived as if he had passed away, so I can live like that in the future.”

“For Hina.”

“We will talk.”

“Isn’t it better not to know?”

“In the past, I thought it was better not to know what happened to my parents, but not anymore. I will go back and meet Hina in person and tell her. It is up to Hina to decide how she will take it.”

“okay.”

“Will you ever meet Lord Hill?”

– …… rattle.

The bell at the tip of the sword makes a sound again.

No matter how hard I listen, it’s still the same. There is no sound of fox cubs playing.

I was curious about how I could hear such a sound from this bell.

“no.”

I was only curious about that one thing.

But not anymore. Instead of the sound of a fox cub playing, a sound like the smell of rye bread came out. So I no longer wondered. So that’s it.

“You should meet a dead friend after death.”

Kirie, who was looking at the bell hanging on the tip of the sword, stood up.

“Then I will go alone.”

“Do you want to meet me?”

“That’s right.”

“I’m trying to hear what you’re talking about.”

Kirie let out a sigh and shook her head. The same gentle voice as always came out.

“I plan to have a conversation with my late mother after I die.”

“then.”

“I just want to confirm one thing.”

Whatever the reason for living under the guise of death.

No matter how big the task was and how big the decision was made.

There was only one thing that was important to Kyrie.

“How are the ears of the person over there? Are they still long and pointy? That’s all I will check.”

I wonder if Whitlin’s ears are still long and pointy, or if she cut them off herself like Hina.

There was only one thing to check.

It is difficult to disguise the cut off part. That’s why I didn’t know that a person with two healthy arms couldn’t become one-armed using magic items for disguise. Therefore, it is clear that Whitlin, who has been pretending to be Freyr, also has short ears.

However, maybe cutting off that ear was just a disguise. Or maybe it was to live like Hina. I decided to check it out.

“If anyone is curious, I should let you know.”

“You mean Hina?”

‘I should have learned healing skills quickly.’

“…… Yes, it is.”

Hina always regretted not being able to cure her mother’s illness, which she couldn’t even remember properly because she was too young. Because Hina had always been curious about Brigitte’s Forest, which Whitlin had wanted to go to.

Kirie herself wasn’t curious about anything about Whitlin, but Hina thought it might not be. So, if Hina was curious about whether or not Whitlin lived an easy life, Kirie had to tell her.

“okay.”

Siona nodded.

Kirie quietly greeted me and took a step forward.

* * *

Plantz let out a short sigh.

There was a reason, I couldn’t help it, I didn’t want to do it. I felt fortunate that such words did not come out of Whitlin’s mouth. If he had come out, Calian would have killed my mother’s close friend and the mother of my knight.

“Would you like to sit down for a moment? I have a question.”

But Freyr, no.

Whitlin said this first.

The words spoken by Whitlin, who was in the guise of Freyr, who was said to be dead. There wasn’t a single word about why he had pretended to be dead.

Calian, who was staring at Whitlin, who looked so much like Hina, nodded. With that, the deadly force that was weighing down the air gradually subsided. In any case, Whitlin and Calian were not the only ones present.

Calian, who was sitting where Whitlin pointed, turned his head. And now I frowned as I saw Planz slowly walking towards the sofa.

– older brother. also.

The steps changed again.

The difference may not be noticeable to others, but it was very visible to Kalian. It is obvious without even asking why the steps have become so straight.

They thought it was because of Briesen.

It was said that Whitlin had powers similar to Hina.

Briesen sent him poison, but he probably faked death because he was afraid he would be taken advantage of if he stayed alive. Did he decide to kill not only himself, but also Kirie and Hina, out of fear that they would be harmed? Is that why he left Kirie and Hina alone like that?

Plantz must have thought something like that.

– If you think it’s because of Brisen.

– I was right in thinking it was because of Briesen. Still, I’m not blaming myself.

– Then why are you doing that?

-……I’m angry.

After answering this, Planz took another short breath.

“It’s not something the prince will be angry about.”

But Whitlin said this as if he had heard it. Of course, the timing coincided well, but it wasn’t about what Plantz said he was angry about. Kalian must have been saying this to mean that it was not something to be angry about about Kirie and Hina.

“That’s true. My brother will be angry.”

So this angry pea took my brother’s side.

When there are three people fighting, if one person takes one side, isn’t it somewhat reassuring? So I stepped forward and took sides.

Whitlin let out a long breath. Then he turned his head to look at Calian and opened his mouth.

“Do you have the axis of time?”

A story that was completely different from the topic that had been going on so far. Such words were heard that neither Calian nor Plantz had expected at all.
