Chapter 49. It’s truly beautiful (2)
and so cheerful.
The sound of Raven’s footsteps walking on the well-maintained royal road was always cheerful, but today it was especially cheerful.
It’s natural.
“For some reason, today they suddenly said they were going to change Raven’s horseshoe... was this what you were thinking?”
Raven felt refreshed wearing her new horseshoe, so it was inevitable that such a cheerful sound would be heard.
Calian, who couldn’t bear to say things like ‘an ulterior motive’ or ‘a trick’ to his brother’s face, took a deep sigh and continued speaking.
“No matter what, it’s still like that. How can you hit your little brother in the back of the head twice like this?”
“I didn’t expect to be fooled twice.”
Calian, who saw a reaction that made him even more surprised that he had been fooled twice by the same method, distracted Raven’s mane here and there.
I was deceived.
I’ve already surpassed Planz’s number twice.
‘They say they’re changing Raven’s horseshoe today.’
‘
‘Really? ‘It still seemed okay.’
‘Reric came earlier, and the funeral priest who came to change Estina’s horseshoes said that Raven’s horseshoes should be replaced as well, so I asked him to do so. I have to change the horseshoe and give him a bath, so please take Izlan to the duke’s residence, prince.’
‘huh. okay.’
Jan told Calian, who was going to Duke Siegfried’s residence that day, to ride his horse instead of Raven. And Kalian did as Jan told him without thinking much.
They said they were going to change the horseshoe, but was there anything else to suspect?
Calian had no idea that it was a plan to go on a long-distance trip or that it was a ploy to get Calian to pack his personal belongings into the bag Raven was carrying.
Of course, Jan didn’t know until then. If I had known, it would have been obvious that he was hiding something on his face.
“I wouldn’t have opposed it even if you had told me in advance.”
“That would be the quickest way for my sister’s old brother to find out.”
I’m not good at lying, but I’m good at getting caught. So, I thought that if I had told Calian, Chase would have noticed and eventually Devlan would have found out.
... Calian shook off the feeling that this was just an excuse and that he was just teasing him, and shook his head as he looked at the Duke’s residence in the distance.
After sparring with Demirea once, he fought with Evan and suffered a hole in his stomach. Thanks to that, we postponed our second sparring and ended up going to the elf village, so we couldn’t meet again. Then I managed to make my next appointment, but ended up breaking it again.
“I shouldn’t have made such an appointment with Demirea. Thanks to you, my brother, you are so thoughtful. I think we will probably break off the engagement when I return.”
Plantz chuckled without answering.
I didn’t know that my younger brother, who had gone a long way without even seeing the faces of Lucy and Anne, who seemed to have finally remembered Calian again, and skipped a proper greeting with Alan, was grumbling in an ironic tone.
It was fortunate that after Calian left for the duke’s residence, he found out about the truth and said hello to Jan, who hastily made preparations for the trip.
“Anyway...”
Calian sighed deeply once again, feeling fortunate to be in this situation, and looked back.
Kirie, who was following behind, made eye contact with Calian and lowered her head. Calian, who received a slight nod and a light bow, looked away.
Eila is seen next to Kirie. We ended up coming together.
Behind the two, knights appeared. Since there should be no unnecessary vigilance in Secretia, only 30 people were selected. For the same reason, the royal army, Balkan knights and wizards, could not join the trip to Secretia.
Additionally, not a single servant or maid was included. To prepare for an unexpected situation, those who were unable to fight were excluded from the group. Just like Chase did when he visited Kairis.
Lastly, among the knights, the royal carriage, boasting truly enormous majesty, came into view. It was the same carriage that Raven couldn’t ride because of her stubbornness.
“Are you pulling the carriage out with the intention of leaving it parked in front of the moving magic circle? It won’t be able to pass through the magic circle.”
“Marquis Manasil solved it.”
This is what I asked Alan for on the first day back from the elf city to Kairisis. The request was to allow the carriage engraved with all kinds of defensive magic to pass through the moving magic circle. And Alan had easily remodeled the carriage on time.
Since when have they been planning something like this?
Calian, who laughed, opened his mouth again.
“I thought you would choose clothes that won’t get wet and go, but I didn’t know you even prepared a carriage.”
“You can’t hear it.”
“I thought you wouldn’t wear the black clothes as well as the white clothes.”
If you were a Planz who set foot on the land of Secretia, wouldn’t you leave behind the Balkan uniform and the prince’s conquests? That’s what I thought.
Calian turned his head forward again and looked at Plantz.
LeMaine’s gaze rested on the teacup for a moment.
Those words coming out of Alan’s mouth don’t sound like a joke at all. I know that if something like that were to ever happen, I would truly be the person who could erase Secretia from the map of this continent.
The King of Riverne must have known this, so he immediately executed State Secretary Teian. Thanks to this, Rivern’s map would not have changed.
“... Yes. Please refer to it.”
A small shadow passed outside the window as if a bird had flown away. Alan, who was looking at it, asked.
“Did you send a letter to Devlan?”
“I sent it right after the two princes set off.”
Lemain laughed for a moment as he remembered the contents of the letter, having never dreamed that he would be so shameless in his entire life.
– My son’s birthday is coming up, and he said he would like to see the country. By the time you receive this letter, you will probably be near the border. If you upset my precious sons in the slightest, Balkan’s heart will be broken, so I hope you will open the gate and help me get there without any trouble. Still, I regret not telling you in advance, so I will cancel my decision to cut off communication with you.
I decorated these words beautifully and sent them to Devlan.
Soon Lemain raised his teacup again.
I thought to myself that this is a tea I would like to drink with Plants sometime in the future.
* * *
It’s been a long time since I took off my thick coat out of frustration.
Instead, he wore a black shirt, red vest, and black jacket and pants. And he wore a long cloak made of red cloth. With Kirie’s help, Jan even put on the cloak knot decoration that she had kept.
I know that this is not appropriate clothing for traveling.
I wasn’t the type of person to care about clothes to begin with, but in any case, it was difficult to say that this was an outfit suitable for someone going on a long journey.
still.
It was more convenient than the prince’s conquest, so it was okay.
“Is there a problem.”
A fairly heavy voice came out of Kirie’s mouth.
The soldiers in front seemed to be exchanging opinions among themselves for a moment and then approached again.
“I have received notification about the visit of the 2nd and 3rd Princes Kairis.”
The soldier paused for a moment and looked at the group in front of him with a serious expression on his face.
Gorgeous carriage with curtains down.
The long black cloak of the rider on the huge black horse standing motionless right next to him fell in an elegant curve.
The man with a slim physique and wearing a black suit just looks straight ahead with his head held high. He doesn’t even look at the soldiers.
The soldier quickly looked away so as not to stare at the sight for too long.
3 princes.
And Sword Master.
It was to avoid going against the grain and making things complicated. In fact, there was already one thing that would make things complicated.
After checking on his companions, the soldier looked at Kyrie and opened his mouth again.
“Soldiers are not allowed through.”
“Are you talking about Prince 2?”
“No. Other...”
“Otherwise, there are no soldiers among them.”
The soldier clenched and unclenched his fist for a moment.
And then I looked at the bright blue haired wizard standing behind Kyrie.
“Oh, you mean me?”
A blue-headed duck mother holding a rather large webbed duckling in her arms opened her mouth and pointed at herself.
“The wizard Arsene Hertz.”
yes you
After seeing the soldiers’ eyes as if asking if you were that soldier, Arsene added a lengthy introduction.
“I’m just a magician who was relieved of his position after confronting the corps commander about his entire salary being cut, so it doesn’t have to be that difficult.”
The wizard who heard the news of Raven’s horseshoe replacement the day after he was temporarily made a civilian by Calian, rushed to the front of the moving magic circle.
“Is there something wrong with what I said, Chairman?”
“No, there isn’t any.”
Arsene Hertz smiled and looked at the purple-haired wizard standing next to him.
