It is said that when the wind blows in a fully grown wheat field, waves come.
The expression on his face was so excited as he explained that it is difficult to find such a spectacle on land, and I wondered how someone who does not know how to make things up or exaggerate would say such a thing after seeing a windy wheat field.
Thatâs why I was curious about what a wave in a wheat field would look like. Is it a powerful wave that threatens to turn everything in the world upside down, like the sight I first encountered, or is it a calm and peaceful wave, like the last time I saw it when I returned to Whitlin?
I was good at thinking and drawing conclusions, but I wasnât good at imagining things, so I couldnât figure it out. So, should I ask my younger brother who is so excited one more time? While I was thinking about that.
If just thinking about it makes you so excited and makes a face that already captures the wind of the wheat fields in those red eyes, then of course it must be calm and peaceful waves. Because I had to answer like this, I couldnât ask anything in particular.
âThe Sereia territory will be harvesting wheat soon. I heard that the planting season is earlier than whitlin.â
Moreover, because Calian continued talking like this, I even put the question aside. It is said that all of Sereiaâs wheat would have been ripe by now, so if you are curious, you can check it out yourself and find the answer when you go there. Thatâs all I thought.
So what about Fabianâs wheat?
Suddenly, a new question arises.
-â¦â¦Many angles!
Thanks to the power of Danu, which allows wheat to grow well anywhere, regardless of whether it is spring wheat or autumn wheat, each territory of Kairis has been sowing and harvesting wheat at the time when it is most needed. So, how much does Fabianâs wheat grow at this time? If everyone grew up, would we be able to see those amazing waves? For a moment, I became curious about such trivial things.
Whether grapes and lemons grow well or barley or rye grow well. Regardless of which region is most famous, isnât wheat something that most estates grow to some extent? Aside from being famous for its freshwater pearls, Plantsâ territory Sereia also has a number of wheat fields in case it is difficult to supply wheat from outside the territory.
â Multi-faceted, multi-faceted!
So there was definitely some wheat farming in Fabian. I didnât know about it yet because I didnât pay much attention, but I would be able to check it out if I went there in person. Whether the wheat there has grown enough to make waves or, like Whitlin, not far from each other, it still has more years to grow. About an extremely trivial question.
â Many, many, many⦠Tap, tap, tap!
â Tap, tap, tap!
As I sat on the horse and filled my mind with unusual thoughts, I felt the sound of the horsesâ hooves gradually becoming faster as they walked.
You must have left the outer walls of Whitlin and entered the wide path leading to the moving magic circle.
âAre you so worried that your room is in chaos?â
âI didnât come to see you because I donât know where my room is.â
âIf thatâs the case. what brings you here.â
âWizard⦠Marquis Alan Manasil is going to the Great Desert.â
âIf only the magicianâs energy had permeated me again.â
âSomething happened a little while ago while I was meeting Whitlin in the dungeon.â
âI guess Iâm glad that the anger isnât directed at this place.â
There was nothing special to do until we arrived at the moving magic circle. All I had to do was keep my mouth shut and run as fast as I could.
Therefore, while taking the form of running with Calianâs knight and his betrothed behind, I kept thinking about the conversation between the residents of the same building that had occurred a little while ago.
âDid you bother to come here to tell me that? âTo tell you about my trip to the dungeon to meet that elf.â
âno. I came to tell you that I have something to pay you back.â
âI.â
âyes. âBrother.â
âTo whom.â
âIs there anyone else besides Calian?â
âYou never know.â
âThere may be more. I donât know.â
âIs that so?â
âThatâs right.â
What kind of expression did you make when I told you to pay back?
What kind of face did you make when you heard that there was no one else to pay back?
I tried to remember it for a while, but nothing came to mind, it was just a transient thing.
âHello, Vice Commander.â
âVice Commander, are you here again?â
Without knowing that I had already arrived at the moving magic circle, I stayed still and received these greetings.
I can see wizards with smiles of joy on their faces, as if they have forgotten all the formalities and etiquette towards royalty.
They were not the magicians who originally worked here, but the magicians from Balkan who had followed them from the royal palace to Whitlin. I remember the story that after the battle with Zeon, security guards were stationed here to prepare for any unexpected situation.
I nodded, received their greetings, and then looked to the side. Then Kirie, the Calian knight who had been riding silently until now, got off his horse. And I started talking to one of them.
âIâm here to use the magic circle.â
âYes, Lord Bern. I will get ready right away. Where are you going?â
A smile appears on the wizardâs face again, whether he is glad for the guest he met while on guard duty or the three people who have just arrived. While I was sitting on the horse and looking down at that face, I heard Kirieâs answer.
âI would like to go back to Siegfried.â
âAre you talking about Siegfried?â
âYes. Rightâ¦â
âNo.â
I cut those words off.
The gazes of Kirie, Demirea, and the various wizards present were all focused at once. I ignored it again and opened my mouth.
âIâm not going to Siegfriedâs command.â
âIsnât it Siegfried? Then where are you going?â
âIf I pay it back this time. Shall I no longer have to repay my youngest?â
âProbably not.â
âIs that so?â
âFrom now on, you can just help me instead of paying me back.â
ââ¦â¦ okay.â
âAre you going to do it? âI donât have time.â
âTalk to me. What and how are you being asked to repay?â
âTake it. Itâs probably something youâve seen often.â
âIt wasnât just a disguise.â
âyouâre right.â
âBecause. âWhose appearance are you asking me to take?â
â⦠Fabian. Iâm trying to go to my âbrotherâsâ territory.â
âItâs me.â
â⦠I am you.â
âyes. Thatâs right.â
âAre you talking about Fabian territory, Vice Commander?â
âokay.â
âI understand. I will prepare right away. By the way, Vice Commander, is something bad going on?â
âNever mindâ
âTime is running out. We must hurry.â
The answer I was giving to the wizard standing in front of me was interrupted in the middle. It was Kirie.
The wizard, who realized that I wasted time because of my curiosity, smiled humbly and took a step back. He then pointed to the direction where the moving magic circle was and said.
âOh, Iâm sorry. Iâll pick you up right away, so please come this way.â
Planz No.
âRandel disguised as Plantzâ nodded and got off the horse. And then I followed the wizard and went inside.
It is a moving magic circle that I have already experienced many times. Therefore, I was already used to the fact that my vision became brighter shortly after I stood on top of the magic circle, that my vision became very shaken, and that after a while, I heard a slightly different smell than before.
So everything else was fine.
âIf you donât like it.â
âIâve endured a lot of things I donât like, so it wonât be difficult to endure. Rather⦠it must be very irritating.â
âWould it be any different for me?â
âItâs fortunate. They say itâs the same.â
âItâs very fortunate.â
Except for the annoying bright emerald hair that shimmers before my eyes.
âAre you putting me in your place to hide your disappearance from Whitlin?â
âItâs similar, but the place you need to deceive is not here, but Fabian. Fabian has something for you to do by pretending to be me.â
âWhy are you entrusting me with that role?â
âThe only person who can imitate me and not be suspicious even if I go into a room and donât come out for a few days is my brother. Even if Fabian finds out that it was someone else and not me, the only person who wonât have a problem is you. As I said, Iâm not asking because I like it too.â
I would have to remain like this until the real Plants rescued Calian, sorted out Whitlinâs affairs, and came to Fabian, but I decided to endure it for now.
â â¦â¦Saaaaa!
tide.
Calm and peaceful.
Because I saw golden waves blowing across the wide wheat fields.
Even after leaving the sea, I can once again see the wind moving, so I guess I can tolerate the unfamiliar light of hair that dries up before my eyes for a while.
âThe crew always asks what bad happened.ân/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Kirieâs voice can be heard through the sound of the wind.
âIt was like that.â
âYes, I did. It was because I was worried that your face was always expressionless. So, if something like this happens again in the future and someone in the Balkans asks you the same thing, you can just answer âthere was nothingâ without adding another word.â âYou always answered that way.â
He was explaining why he blocked the answer to the wizardâs question before moving through space.
Iâve seen Plants treat Calian and Kyrie a lot recently, but Iâve never seen him treat Vulkan, so I almost got caught right away. Only then did I realize this and turned my head. Kirie, who was looking directly into the light green eyes with eyes of different light, continued speaking.
âPrince Randel.â
Demireaâs head turned when she heard this.
Plantzâs words come to mind again.
âThe Duke wonât notice because he hasnât seen me and you in a particularly long time, but Lord Verne will immediately notice that you are in disguise. However, please do not announce this in advance as you never know where listening ears will be within Whitlin. Once you leave Whitlin, you may inform the Duke and Lord Bern of the truth.â
Plantzâs prediction came true.
â⦠Ah. Then.â
Demirea, who had been looking at Plantzâs face for a while to understand the situation, opened her mouth.
âCan I talk now? They told me that if I open my mouth, Iâll get caught, so I have to keep my mouth shut until I get here.â
Then he said this.
With the face of Demirea, wearing Demireaâs clothes, wearing Demireaâs armor, and wearing Demireaâs sword. Demirea spoke in a tone she would never say.
I knew it as soon as I heard it. The fact that the person who followed him on that huge black horse was not Siegfriedâs Duke.
âAnd there is one more thing. Youâll find out as soon as we get there.â
Alan Manasil went to the Great Desert to find the missing Calian. The people who left Whitlin and went to Siegfried to stop Alan.
â¦â¦ The three people who first came to Fabian in the name of arresting Rashid Brissen as soon as possible. The three people left separately to prevent other problems from being further delayed due to Kalianâs incident.
Kyrie, Plantz and Demirea.
no. Kirie, Randel and one more person. A person followed with a disguise necklace taken from Whitlin around his neck instead of the bell that Whitlin had given him.
It was Siona Hill.
So, three people including Siona.
The three fell silent for a moment and looked at each otherâs situation.
â Saaaaaâ¦â¦.
Among the truly calm and peaceful golden winds.
* * *
â Are you here?
I hear the voice again.
Maybe the reason I donât open my mouth to speak is because Iâm too tired to open my mouth. Or maybe it was because I had to move my body to block my teacher and brother from the man with long blonde hair who was standing next to me.
I couldnât tell it, but I heard the voice again. Whatever the reason, it is clear that it is not the sound of the seal of the oath bound to the heart being loosened, so it is okay if it is.
â Your companion is gorgeous.
â If Iâm going to fight anyway, I think itâs better if I have too much power.
There is no need to conserve strength when fighting.
The more power I have, the better.
That way I donât get hurt. As long as I donât get hurt, the sharp knife wonât reach the person behind me. but.
â but. youâre right. Whatever it is, if itâs something that can be controlled by oneâs own hands, the more excess the better.
okay.
As that guy said, thatâs only true for things that can be governed.
â Then, brother, you will learn magic now.
â Iâm not learning.
â If you learn magic, you too will become very strong. Why arenât you learning?
â When you think less. at that time.
This answer brings laughter.
â Itâs good. Such an answer.
I only noticed it after hearing it.
He didnât ask because he really wanted Calian to learn magic, but because he was afraid he might try to learn magic to become stronger.
â Are you thinking of trying to teach me again in front of the dragon of the great desert?
â I lift it. You are the only great wizard on the continent, and you even brought a sea dragon that brings rain wherever you go, so why should you choose to be afraid? By the way, you have already come looking for Arnaizel. As expected, my brother is very capable.
A small oasis somewhere in the southern desert.
A small sand tomb grew next to it.
A low hill that is very similar to the numerous sand tombs lined up here and there surrounding the oasis, but is noticeably smaller in size. There was a Silestian nest underground.
After receiving an explanation from Whitlin and confirming the facts from Arsene and Euria, Alan took action immediately. Of course
, it doesnât matter if Sispanian doesnât come. âIâll come back.â
âGo together.â
I didnât come alone.
âItâs not your job to be stubborn, sir.â
âWizard. Itâs not me whoâs being stubborn right now. Adelia said that Cylestian would hate you very much. âYou know.â
âI donât know that. Still, there wonât be any trouble.â
âI will. together. Iâm going. If I were there, Cylestian wouldnât be so angry at you, the wizard, so why?â
âIsnât it dangerous to stop you? Iâll take care of the fight, so you can stay here.â
âno.â
It is known that he escaped from Whitlin alone, but in reality, he left together, unable to separate from âthe crown prince, who insisted on going with his great blood and would never back downâ. And after warping around the great desert for quite some time, I finally found the place that Whitlin had described.
As soon as he discovered the place believed to be the Silestianâs nest, magical energy gathered at the tips of Alanâs fingers. You can see how enormous that power was by looking at the particularly tired face of Plantz, who followed along.
In any case, just before the power gathered like that leaves Alanâs hand,
âI canât even touch the Celestian nest with that.â
An unfamiliar voice was heard.
â Shootâ¦!
And then it rained.
âCispanian canât come this far now. You canât go this far and leave Serenti behind. Itâs okay for Silestian to be angry. If Silestian gets angry, Cispanian must stop him. Then Serenti will feel anxious. Cylestian wonât do anything bad to that human. So just go back. huh? huh?â
Itâs been a long time since I saw welcome rain.
Who in the Great Desert could not welcome the rain pouring down in such a scorching heat, but for Alan and Plants, there was probably no rain more welcome than that.
âI will take you by my hand.â
Alan bowed his head deeply to show respect to Arneizel, who was so happy to see him, and said this.
âI will take you out quietly and return, so please open the door.â
Arnaizel, considering that it was the best âmediationâ, eventually nodded. And this is how we came together.
â How did you bring Arnaizel?
Calian asked after catching a glimpse of Alanâs pure white flame that illuminated the entire dark cave. I looked at Arnaizel for a moment, who followed in with the intention of stopping it immediately if the flame ever reached Cylestian.
â It just so happened. What happened?
â If you were scared to come alone, you would have just done your job and waited. If youâre bored, youâve become very close with Brother Randel, so we can eat together or play chessâ¦
â Bark.
â Itâs nice to meet you. Because he has grown up again.
â â¦the body.
â Iâm sleepy. Iâm hungry too.
Plantz frowned.
And I glared at the top of Cylestianâs golden head, which was obscured by Calian and not easily visible.
My brother said something else before he was hungry.
What kind of person is my younger brother, and how badly he treats his child that he wants to sleep instead of eating meat. So, will I be angry now or not?
â go back. Go sleep.
â yes.
Calian responded briefly and returned his gaze.
Then he looked at the Silestian standing in front of him and opened his mouth.
âIf you have anything to ask, ask now.â
Cylestian, who seemed to be having a separate conversation with Arnigel, who suddenly came to visit, turned his head. Calian continued speaking while looking into Silestianâs golden eyes.
âApologize first. Then.â
Now I am stronger.
So, I have to get what I get.
This is what it means.
