Chapter 22. Don’t touch it (6)
At least it won’t be unfair.
That is, if you saw Calian’s shadow rather than Calian.
“What kind of nonsense is this?”
Not even a day has passed since Calian disappeared. To be honest, now I know it’s gone. However, if you don’t give up Calian, they won’t let you send Plantz.
No, what else did Planz believe in when he followed Siegfried’s knights? I should have been suspicious if he had called that night, but I can’t understand why he went to Siegfried’s mansion and brought matters to this level.
The misunderstanding that they had injured Gray was extrely unfair, but now they are saying that they are holding onto Calian, as if they are going to raid the house after imprisoning Arsene.
“Actually, Lemain is quiet, but why do elephants keep putting their butts in the fight for position?”
Marquess Evan Brissen, who was completely innocent except for imprisoning Lennon Brissen and running a gambling house, was furious.
“Your Highness is also monitoring the situation. With the 3rd Prince gone and the 2nd Prince detained, you won’t be able to attack Siegfried at will.”
“… Yes. You can’t move carelessly. You don’t want to face a situation where even Plants goes wrong or Siegfried takes down the king for the first ti.”
Evan, who had gathered his thoughts by agreeing with the head of the house, let out an annoyed sound. Being put in a situation where I had to solve this problem myself without even Lemain getting involved made really crazy and excited.
“What would you like to do?”
Evan, who was about to tell the deacon to prepare the knights imdiately, kept his mouth shut when the head deacon asked from the side. And after a while, he managed to control his anger and answered.
“……I will be alone for a while.”
I had to think.
In my heart, I wanted to lead the knights now.
– It’s Seungnyang who’s doing this.
But didn’t I hear this from a guy who was about my grandson’s age, or rather, a guy who was my grandson? I didn’t want to be treated like that again.
“When the Third Prince disappears and Siegfried and Briesen co into conflict, who will benefit the most?”
Without a doubt, it is Randel.
It seed like the crazy elephants were pushing Brisen without even thinking about it.
“But isn’t the third prince a sword master?”
It is difficult to guarantee that he will win if he faces Kalian right away. I don’t know what kind of trick they used, but I couldn’t feel the aura. So, unless you have the sa level of force as Slayman…
“Is this a play of Slayman’s own making?”
Evan’s face hardened as he thought about that.
“No. Slayman was said to have been away from the capital from yesterday afternoon until a little while ago, so it must not be Slayman.”
Evan, who had in mind the knight Teilan who ca with the crown prince of Secretia, shook his head again. There was no reason for him to do such a thing, and since Chase was in the palace, the risk was too great for Teilan to do such a thing.
Then there is only one thing left.
“Grey… That’s right. Even so, Gray, who was slightly on Randel’s side, may have intervened in this matter. He must be of similar or greater power to the 3rd prince, so he should catch the 3rd prince and kill him. “It might not be completely impossible to trap them.”
Evan still didn’t know that Gray couldn’t use Aurors.
“Did Randel and Gray work together?”
After coming to this absurd conclusion, Evan sat down at his desk and took out a letter. Instead of going to see Siegfried in person, I thought about sending him a letter first.
If it was really true that Randel joined hands with Gray, he shouldn’t have made a fuss with Siegfried right away.

The mont when insight and abyss t.
Everyone recognized each other.
I clearly recognized it.
It happened the day before when Chase, who had gone to Chermil Palace in search of Plants, took a short walk in the rose garden.
“It looks like there’s nothing left to cut.”
Chase said this as he watched Randel’s hand examining the roses.
Randel, who turned his head for a mont at the unfamiliar voice, slowly stood up. Then, with his attendant behind him, he quietly answered the stranger who had co to this depths.
“If you leave it alone for a little while, it will grow.”
That’s how I encountered it.
The two stood still and looked at each other without even exchanging greetings for their first eting.
The abyss tried to swallow insight, and insight saw through the abyss.
“Wouldn’t it be better to just let it grow?”
Randel looked into Chase’s deep purple eyes for a mont and answered.
“I don’t like being left out.”
“I’m afraid I’ll hurt my hand.”
The wind blew.
When the scent of roses lingering on the end of the wind disappeared, Chase smiled and opened his mouth again.
“…I’m saying this because I’m worried. There are thorns.”
A voice like a softly lingering scent followed the laughter.
The wind blew again.

Lubia’s annex.
It was a place built for distinguished guests among the envoys who visited Kairis.
In fact, there were very few people who could be treated as VIPs to the extent of being given an annex at Kairis. Therefore, this annex was also not opened often, so it was a rare sight to see people coming and going in the annex.
Of course, except for recent tis.
After Chase, Crown Prince of Secretia, moved into the annex, the annex of Luvia Pavilion was quite busy. And since yesterday, a few people were especially noticeable, busily coming in and out of the outside of the palace and the Ruby Pavilion.
One of them was Knight Teilan.
– smart.
Tailan entered the annex with fairly long strides, knocked on the door of Chase’s room located at the highest point of the annex, and said,
“This is Castrin, sir.”
Then, even though there was no permission to co in, he imdiately opened the door and went inside. This was permitted because Teilan was Chase’s escort.
Chase was standing with his back to the door, looking out the window. Chase opened his mouth as he looked at Tailan reflected in the window.
“Are we still on Siegfried’s side?”
“Yes. There is no other news yet.”
“okay.”
A small sigh escaped Chase’s mouth.
Tailan did not know why he cared so much about the affairs of the Third Prince Kairis, but he knew well that he would not answer even if asked about him. So, instead of asking a question, Tailan said what he had to say to Chase.
“The Society’s wizards have begun to investigate. Should we let the birds in?”
“Just keep moving. We won’t crash.”
“All right.”
“Any other news?”
“There is no movent within the capital, and inspections on entering and leaving the capital have been strengthened under King Lemain’s instructions, but it is said that there are no abnormalities among those leaving or entering the capital.”
Even among the information requested by birds active in Kairisis, their movents were not detected.
“Either they are still holding out and watching the situation, or they have retreated, waiting for the next opportunity, or they are all already dead.”
“Yes. However, I think it would be better to rule out the possibility that everyone is dead.”
“I guess that’s right. By the ti the birds discovered the traces of the fight, they already said there was no body, so we have to assu that soone cleaned it up.”
“Your Majesty.”
Chase, who was nodding, shifted his gaze from the Teilan reflected in the window. Chase, who was looking at the fountain outside the window, opened his mouth again.
“The Marquis of Briesen.”
“Yes. There hasn’t been any reaction yet.”
“It’s slower than I thought.”
Chase, who was lost in thought for a mont again, nodded and said.
“okay.”
“yes.”
Tailan bowed his head towards Chase, who was still looking out the window, and then went outside. Chase, who heard the door closing, quietly opened his mouth, rembering Randel, whom he had t the day before.
“I don’t think it’s Prince Randel yet…”
Chase didn’t even know what Randel had said to Calian. However, I knew a little more than Bern about his tendencies as king of Tensil.
Therefore, it was not that difficult for Chase to guess how Randel viewed the other two brothers.
Randel wasn’t cornered enough to send his sword at Calian right away. He wasn’t the type of person who would do such a foolish thing. Also, Randel probably doesn’t know anything about this incident.
“Then who would it be?”
Chase’s face reflected in the window was cold.

“I wish I could start a rumor.”
Calian, who was sitting against the bed with a tired face, opened his mouth like this.
“Are you talking about rumors about this incident?”
“Yes. I disappeared.”
In response to Demirea’s question, who had been completely uninterested in rumors, Calian answered with a mischievous face that did not suit his complexion, which would have been surprising if he lost his mind again.
Calian was the one who knew best how much the nobles cared about rumors. Because it is the most directly related to their honor. That’s why Kalian has also taken advantage of the power of false rumors several tis.
“Marquis Briesen will not make any more rash moves.”
After saying that, Calian looked at Planz for a mont, who was sitting next to the bed and quietly closing his eyes.
A little while ago, Plantz filled Calian with everything that had happened since the last ti he t him. Also about what I said to Evan when I t him at the prom.
Therefore, Calian, who judged that Evan would want to ignore this incident quietly, decided to rely on the power of rumors once again.
“It’s too quiet for the Marquis to sit still and just send letters.”
“Are you telling to create and spread a story that is unfavorable to Briesen?”
“Yes. That way, this incident will also spread.”
Calian spoke in a light tone as he peeled the banana he was holding.
“I understand. The association’s wizard will be nearby, so I will deliver it to you.”
“Did I tell you that the association would co forward?”
“You didn’t.”
“But I know very well.”
“Aren’t they the ones who will take care of anything related to Prince Calian?”
Calian chuckled as he looked at Dmirea, who looked so different from Jan, who had used up all his smarts not long ago.
“Okay. By the way, the baby elephant is whining again. Please tell what happened.”
Demirea smiled for a mont and answered.
“All right.”
“Thank you, Demirea.”
I was really indebted to him in many ways.
Since the information about the shield was only a justification, locking the gate and stepping forward was no different from Demirea unilaterally helping Calian rather than a decision based on alliance.
“You will get the full price later. It is expensive.”
He then added, pointing to a pile of banana peels.
“Even the price of bananas.”
“Oh, I should have saved so bananas.”
“It’s not free, so eat as much as you want.”
Calian smiled and nodded, and Demirea went out after a brief greeting. It was to et the wizard of Euria who was hiding sowhere around the mansion.
After Demirea left, Calian looked at Plants and opened his mouth. However, before any words ca out of his mouth, Plantz spoke first.
“Not required.”
“yes.”
This ti, Calian just ignored the words of gratitude and held up the last remaining banana to Plantz.
“Brother, would you like to eat?”
“no.”
“yes.”
Kalian, who never says the sa thing twice, never gave the sa recomndation twice, so he nodded and ate the banana. Then he looked at Planz and said.
“… They were warriors of the great desert.”
And what followed was sothing that could not be told to Demirea yet. This was because I could not tell others about the power, which felt similar to the one used by Randel.
“I felt similar to the power that Brother Randel used. There was one person with abilities similar to an Auror and four people with abilities similar to magic. The strongest was the swordsman, and all five had healing powers.”
“They say the warriors of the Great Desert used divine power.”
Planz, who was lost in thought for a mont, slightly opened his closed eyes and asked.
“If you can call it divine power. Actually, I thought that Tensil might be behind this incident. I think they may have stepped forward separately from Brother Randel.”
The information known so far clearly pointed to Tensil. There was also a suitable justification. Because the biggest obstacle to Randel’s path was Calian.
If Randel becos the king of Kairis, what greater benefit would there be for Tensil than that? So, it seed like they would try to take Calian’s life separately from Randel.
“My brother is so special.”
Calian, who laughed briefly at Plantz’s words, opened his mouth.
“But no matter how much I thought about it, it didn’t seem like a possible situation, so I put my doubts aside for now. I was wondering if Tensil would do sothing that would imdiately escalate into war if things went wrong, even if he joined hands with the Great Desert.”
“okay.”
“Then who is it? I can’t think of any other people. Unlike my brother, I don’t think I have done anything bad enough to be attacked in the capital.”
“Don’t bark.”
Calian grinned after seeing Plantz’s reaction to the comnt he added as a joke.
Plantz, who was looking at Calian, who was pondering various possibilities, opened his mouth.
“Stop thinking.”
Even though he was eating a lot of bananas and talking casually, he looked like he was about to die.
“yes.”
Calian nodded without saying a word and lay down. And soon I fell asleep again.
After that, Calian spent another full day before he opened his eyes again. In the anti, due to the rumors that Euria had faithfully spread, the Marquis of Briesen finally ca and threatened him before returning.
As five more days passed, Kairisis was filled with stories about Calian’s disappearance. Nobles who supported Calian visited the palace every day, and Lemain remained silent.
And then they moved.
Kalian said with a smile after hearing the news.
“Call Master.”
I almost died after dealing with five guys.
Are you crazy enough to go alone?
The ti has co to see the skills of Alan Manasil, who is full of love for his students.
