The Crown Prince That Sells dicine Chapter 151
Episode 151 Relativity Elven Ti Theory (1)
“Recently. “So, didn’t you set fire to the forest where Apyrus’ nest was located about six months ago?”
“…yes?”
Rachiel asked again without realizing it. The elf woman’s eyes cooled down.
“That’s right. Leader of a group of arsonists. “Surgeon Lee Han.”
“….”
That’s right. I have no intention of turning away. But that’s not a recent thing. So it was.
“This is a bit unfair.”
“unfair?”
An elf woman twisting her eyebrows.
I grumbled sincerely towards her.
“It is true that the forest was set on fire. “But you use your clever way of speaking to turn into a an person.”
“As a vile person? I? “That way?”
“yes.”
“why?”
“Didn’t you ask this from the beginning when you held a knife to my throat? “Hasn’t there been a fire in the forest ‘recently’?”
“It did.”
“So I thought. arson? Have I done sothing like that recently? But there has to be sothing that cos to mind. At least ‘recently’.”
Rachiel calmly argued.
How on earth did this elf woman get through the tight security of the second prince’s palace and get here without being detected? It was clear that he was a master of incredible stealth skills.
But he wasn’t scared. The reason was simple. From the mont I first looked into the elf woman’s eyes, I was able to sense early on that an amicable conversation would be possible.
‘If he really wanted to do sothing to , he would have stabbed or cut .’
It’s a fact that cos to mind, but he is the crown prince of the empire. If soone wanted to harm like that, they wouldn’t have even talked to in the first place. He must have just achieved his goal and escaped.
‘Furthermore, in the novel Demon Sword Emperor, it is said that elves… never interfere in human politics.’
But there is no reason to co and harm yourself. In other words, it ans that the elf woman wants sothing from herself.
It was thanks to that.
I felt confident that I could solve the problem through conversation with the elf woman. He boldly questioned the woman. The effect was quite salty.
“What now? Are you trying to play with words with ? You recently committed arson. “Half a year ago.”
“yes. “I didn’t know that an incident from half a year ago would be considered ‘recent’, right?”
“…Why isn’t that recent?”
“Why is it recent?”
“Just because it’s recent ans it’s recent.”
“Then, after half a year, you’ve finally co to criticize ?”
“Have you been thinking for a mont about how to argue?”
“….”
“….”
Our eyes t in the air. Rachiel was able to realize. This elf’s concept of ti seems to be quite different from that of humans.
“So, that’s right. “First of all, let’s get rid of the weapon pointed at the back of soone’s neck and then talk about it.”
“why?”
“Isn’t there sothing you want to say?”
“….”
“I don’t think pointing a knife at is a good way to make a request. “I don’t know if it’s robbery.”
“I might commit robbery.”
“Let’s start by asking what you want.”
“I want compensation.”
“For setting fire to the forest?”
“of course.”
Did he reminisce about what happened at that ti? The elf woman’s gaze, which seed to have softened for a mont, beca harsh again.
“It was a beautiful forest. Countless plants were growing and singing their own songs. But you, young human, burned it. “Innocent plants were brutally burned to death without asking anyone’s permission or understanding.”
“Yes, sorry. “I have nothing to say about that.”
Rachiel obediently admitted his sin(?). Actually, there was nothing to say about that. It was done to ward off the threat of the giant wasp Vesparus, but arson is arson anyway.
Moreover, he was reminded of the characteristics of the elf race of this world that he had read about in the novel Demon Sword Emperor.
‘…fanatic plant lovers.’
That was the most important characteristic of elves in this world. I loved plants. It wasn’t just about caring and loving. I was obsessed with it to the point that I hit Misery Ssadagu 30 tis.
‘I said it was to the point where I wouldn’t eat the plant at all.’
The elves of this world did not eat vegetarian food at all. I didn’t even eat fruit. They ate only carnivore at. It was to protect the plants. All clothing was made from leather and animal tendons, and bows and arrows were made by processing animal bones, tendons, and obsidian.
‘They even said that only won co out of the village and engage in activities such as hunting. because. ‘Because they are lighter than n, they damage the grass on the ground less when they walk around the forest.’
A truly extre plant lover.
The ultimate fusion at-eating machine.
That was the true nature of elves.
But just like that, an elf who is a fanatical fan of plants ca to take responsibility for setting the forest on fire. This ans it was fild correctly. Therefore, responsibility itself should not be denied. Because it will only increase anger.
“So, I will give you sufficiently satisfactory compensation. “Just tell .”
Rachiel spoke with the mindset of a cool deal. All you have to do is acknowledge what needs to be acknowledged and compensate sufficiently. I was confident that I would accept any kind of compensation. Because he is the crown prince. Because he has trendous authority. Because I made a lot of money with Minotaur Hwangcheongsimwon.
However, the request of the elf woman who soon returned was astounding.
“Go to the forest yourself and restore it.”
“yes?”
“Didn’t you hear? “Go to the forest you set on fire and plant new trees and grass.”
“…Are you by any chance an Arbor Day ambassador?”
“What is Arbor Day?”
“No, no, that’s not important. Are you saying we should plant trees and grass? “Should I go there myself?”
“okay.”
“How many trees can I plant?”
“Just like before it burned.”
“Then can I just plant all of them?”
“no.”
The elf woman shook her head resolutely. And then he made an even more shocking statent.
“You have to take care of the trees and grass you planted until they grow back to the sa size as before. “Isn’t that true restoration?”
“…for a mont.”
As I listen to it, I feel a bit dizzy. Rachiel asked without hesitation, suppressing the headache that was rising.
“So, to sum it up. “You an to live the life of a forest keeper, planting grass and trees and diligently taking care of them until the forest is completely restored?”
“That’s it.”
“You are saying this because you know that it will take at least 10 or 20 years for a forest affected by a forest fire to completely recover, right?”
“of course.”
“….”
“20 years is not a very long ti, right?”
“….”
Wow!
Rachiel shouted inwardly. As I was listening, I stopped praying. That’s 20 years. In that ti, wouldn’t 30% of most people’s lives be lost?
‘No, I didn’t commit a heinous cri for which I would be sentenced to 20 years!’
Even the elf’s attitude of calling that enormous amount of ti ‘not much’ made want to hold back my head. He asked, barely able to muster the will to do the twerk of destruction.
“Whew, that’s right. Let ask you honestly. “Are you kidding ?”
“joke? I? why?”
“Isn’t that what you say? “For your species that can live for a thousand years, 20 years may be a short period of ti, but for , 20 years is a ti when a corner of my life flies by.”
Rakiel questioned with sincerity, feeling both unfairness and absurdity. To be honest, it was real. Especially to yourself? 20 years of life as a forest keeper would be no different from a death sentence.
‘of course. I have to heal soone to receive bonus life and continue living. But what if you live alone in a forest with no one around? ‘You’re just telling to die.’
Of course, such a dog’s death is a request. Rakiel spoke as he re-ard himself with a passionate spirit of resistance.
“So, a 20-year forest managent trip is too excessive and a harsh request.”
“Does that an you will refuse to reflect on the atrocities committed?”
“Of course not.”
“if?”
“Can’t we compensate in so other way?”
“Take an example.”
“We will pay the full cost of forest restoration.”
“With money?”
“yes.”
“Do not be ridiculous. “A few shiny gold coins have no value to us elves.”
“It won’t be just a few coins.”
“what?”
“It would be a few boxes.”
“….”
“I can give you more if you want.”
“….”
I was shaken.
The elf woman’s eyes just shook slightly!
‘It works!’
I felt confident.
Even though we are noble elves in the forest, we have no choice but to be equal in front of gold coins. Because I know that money is worthless and it’s all a lie.
‘of course. ‘Is there anyone in the world who doesn’t need money?’
Just look at the elf woman in front of you. After leaving the elf village and coming here, you must have been sleeping on the street every day. Would you have filled your stomach just by catching mice and sparrows in the back alleys?
no. Absolutely not. Because that’s impossible. If you ca this far by only sleeping and hunting, there is no explanation for your hair and neat clothes that resemble those of the treatnt CF.
Rachiel’s tongue moved quickly as he caught a glimpse of the hope of persuasion.
“So how much is it?”
“….”
“We can also provide the labor needed to restore the forest.”
“….”
“Wouldn’t it be more comfortable for both of us?”
“….”
The elf woman’s eyes were filled with anguish. Before I knew it, the dagger that had been pointed at my neck had been lowered. Perhaps it was because I felt that what this side was saying was quite reasonable.
Rakiel sensed the atmosphere and drove in.
“Let’s think about it calmly. I am already reflecting enough. I admit my mistake in destroying the precious forest. That’s why we want to provide the most efficient and effective compensation. But what good is it if I just whine and take care of the forest for 20 years?”
“….”
“While we were restoring it, we spent a lot of money and hired full-ti staff to manage it. Then, the forest will grow much earlier than 20 years ago, beco healthy, everyone will be happy, chirping birds will fly in the clear air, oxygen will gush out, global warming will be prevented, everyone will shout for the green revolution, Greenpeace, and everyone will be satisfied. Do you want to?”
“…Global Warming? Greenpeace?”
“Oh, anyway. “Wouldn’t restoring the forest earlier be the way to make everyone happier?”
“….”
“How is it?”
It cos over. It’s almost over. Sensing the sign, Rachiel’s question beca subtle.
The elf woman’s eyes wavered even more.
She thought.
‘…What is this human?’
I was embarrassed.
I honestly didn’t expect this kind of reaction. I thought that if I strictly judged the cri I had committed, I would agree to their request. Otherwise, refuse responsibility. I just thought it would be one of two things.
But it wasn’t. I’m going to compensate you with a huge amount of money. That would be a satisfactory path for everyone.
‘….’
It sounds like trash, but I can’t refute it. She said, trying to control her embarrassnt.
“I know what you an. But…”
“You’re saying you’re worried?”
“…Oh, right.”
“Then, how about you think about it for a mont?”
“Wait a mont to worry?”
“yes.”
Rachiel nodded.
“Isn’t it the process of deciding and coordinating important matters? It’s a bit strange to decide that so suddenly. Isn’t it? So, how about thinking about it for just a mont, weighing things up, and then talking about it again?”
“….”
It makes sense.
The elf woman caught up in Rachiel’s pace nodded as if she was fascinated without even realizing it.
“…good. “Then let’s think about it for a mont and then co back.”
“Well thought out.”
“okay. “I’ll be back in a mont, so just wait.”
“Yes yes yes. “Let’s go take a look.”
Rachiel greeted calmly.
The elf woman’s appearance disappeared in an instant.
Damn…!
Did it disappear in the wind? Or did it seep into the shadows and leave? I couldn’t figure it out. However, one thing is certain….
‘Operation success.’
Kang Tae-gong’s smile appeared at the corner of Rakiel’s mouth. He returned to the banquet hall without waiting even a second for the elf to leave. The ‘short ti’ that the elf is talking about is at least half a day.
‘Then let get ready now.’
An elf woman appears out of nowhere and demands burdenso compensation. It was a bit annoying at first, but when I thought about it again, it wasn’t that there was no way to deal with it.
‘So, let’s take a mont to asure each angle.’
How to turn this situation into sothing beneficial. I am confident that I can think of it. There is plenty of ti to asure angles and think. One night is enough.
His cerebral cortex started working hard.
