Chapter 74. The Other End (4)
I already know what happened.
There was a time when I gave a magic item for disguise to a white suri, and thanks to that item, I lost Calian right in front of my eyes. Above all, isn’t the crown prince of Tensil also a fake who relies on the same thing to survive?
“Yes. I never thought I would see you again like this, Prince Calian.”
Therefore, it was not surprising that the butler of the mansion, who returned from seeing Kalian off at the palace, informed him of Kalian’s visit and that when he went straight to the drawing room, he actually ran into Kalian.
“The Baron definitely said he would wait to see me again, and I would do the same. I’m a little disappointed that I didn’t know that.”
Whether it’s Calian, who is smiling while saying these words.
Kalian, who said he would walk on one path for a while.
That means one of the two is fake.
“Oops. I think I caused a misunderstanding. I didn’t give you empty words to the prince, I was just surprised to see you in an unexpected place.”
“I’m surprised. Kairisis is so cramped, so wouldn’t there be any surprise if the Baron and I ran into each other somewhere?”
“... Yes. That is correct.”
Whether the person in front of you is fake or the person you were talking to just a moment ago is fake. Actually, it wasn’t something that needed to be a big deal. Since both of them are standing in front as Kalians, it is okay to treat them both as Kalians.
“I’m just worried that I may have interrupted the prince’s conversation with my father.”
the problem is.
Who was the person who pretended to be Calian with the magic item? Why did you do that? Is it true that Kalyan really knows this? In addition, what did Calian here talk about with Gray?
The problem was that it was not easy to immediately resolve these questions.
“No, the story is finished.”
Kalian smiled again as he looked at Rashid, whose mind was filled with various doubts. It looked exactly the same as the ‘Calian’ I had just met in the palace.
“As you can see, we’re on our way back, so don’t worry about it.”
“Yes, my prince.”
“It would have been better if I had more time. I was a little busy with work during the day.”
“It’s so late, what are you busy with?”
At those words, Calian’s lips closed for a moment and then opened.
A voice louder than a whisper but not even Gray could hear reached Rashid’s ears.
“Because of the gap in the fence... I’m feeling a bit upset inside.”
It was somewhat different from what another Calian I met a while ago said.
‘After working so hard to fix the fence, I feel a little stuffy.’
Didn’t he act as if he had already solved everything that upset Plantz?
“Anyway. I will keep what I said when we meet again next time, Baron.”
Soon Kalyan opened his hand and extended it to Rashid.
On the surface, it was just an ordinary handshake, but not for Rashid. The back of the hand looked fine, but there was a long open wound on the inside of the palm.
The blood is no longer flowing and it has already begun to heal little by little. Considering the power of blessing, the wound was probably injured around noon today. It seemed like that.
After shaking hands and shaking hands, Rashid opened his mouth.
“Did you hurt your hand during that time?”
“Ah... this.”
The bandage has been off for a long time. A prince leaving the palace can’t have his hands wrapped in bandages.
Calian smiled as if it was no big deal and answered.
“Isn’t it true that brothers clash with each other over various things? You don’t have to worry, it’s okay.”
Instead of saying that this was all because of you, Calian only spoke softly and closed his mouth as if he had no intention of continuing the conversation. And then, at a quiet pace, he passed by Rashid.
The fruity scent, which is nothing special, hovers around for a moment and then disappears. Calian’s shadow is full of leisure.
* * *
Everything is the same.
If you can remember or imagine someone’s appearance in detail, you can change their appearance as much as you want. It’s not the appearance that’s difficult, but something else.
Speech habits, personality, facial expressions, hand habits. It is not easy to follow each and every one of them exactly the same. Didn’t the white repairman also work hard for quite a while to learn the one-armed swordsman’s speaking style and personality?
Rashid, who had erased his thoughts of the white repair in Siegfried’s domain, returned to his original concern. I thought about who could possibly imitate all aspects of Kalyan in the same way.
Calian’s attendant, knight, fiancée, and teacher.
And Kalyan’s brother.
Randel wasn’t even a thought. I can’t be a great person who can put on someone else’s appearance. There is no reason for the other four to take on the form of Kalian and come looking for Rashid himself or Gray.
In that case, there is only one person left.
Crown Prince Planz.
but.
‘I guess I didn’t come to the right place.’
‘Yes, Baron. There was no mention of a visitor, but Prince Calian suddenly came out of the Marquis’ bedroom and went to the drawing room. Like...’
‘Climbing through the window like a petty thief.’
‘Ah yes. Otherwise, it would be impossible for there to be so many servants in the main building and no one to have seen the prince.’
‘Are you saying that you secretly hid and then bothered to show yourself?’
‘Couldn’t this be a warning about what happened when Prince Calian was detained here? ‘This is to convey not only to the Marquis but to everyone in this mansion that the Marquis’ life can be taken at any time and that they should not act rashly.’
‘......I’ll understand first.’
Isn’t there a high possibility that it was Calian himself who came to the Marquis’ residence? If so, it means that the person who came to see him in the palace was a fake.
no.
I forgot about Alan Manasil.
If you are familiar with Alan Manasil enough to help with this matter, anyone can visit the Marquis’ bedroom, even if you are not Calian. If you think about that, the person who came here is a fake.
And the person who can pretend to be Kalyan is likely to be Plantz.
‘Because of the gap in the fence.... ‘My insides are boiling a bit.’
I remembered the wound on Calian’s hand.
It’s obvious even if you haven’t seen it in person. I guess he forgot who was around him and pulled out his knife. The person who put crack marks on my brother’s hands because of that incident was none other than Plantz. That guy came back to ‘Brisen’ in less than half a day.
or. I came to see Rashid, who had me so upset. We talked with normal faces. He held out his hand to save me and catch Brisen together.
“...... well.”
Before their eyes, they saw their black hair slowly bleaching out, their red eyes changing to the opposite color, their height growing to the length of a finger, and their big eyes turning sharp. The knights looked embarrassed.
Kalyan immediately loosened the tie that was tightening around his neck. Planz unbuttoned the top button of his shirt. And then I took off the black jacket that was so tight that it seemed like it was really tailored to my body. I have a small regret that if I had known this would happen, I would have taken off my jacket first.
After taking a breath, Plantz showed something to the knights.
The knights looked puzzled as they checked the black jacket, which was clearly Calian’s, placed on Plantz’s arm and the bracelet in his hand.
“Vice Commander, no, sir. Why do you have that? I’m surprised.”
“It just so happened.”
“No, then why don’t you tell me? I almost attacked you because I thought you were taking out a dagger. I almost ended up standing in the square, my lord.”
“I won’t believe you if you just tell me.”
“... Yes, that’s true.”
“Can I come in now?”
“Oh yes, of course.”
Plantz nodded and took a step forward. However, another knight who was standing next to the knight who was telling him to pass by cautiously stepped in front of Plantz. Then he opened his mouth with a rather solemn look on his face.
“I’m sorry, my lord. I just have one question.”
“What.”
The driver, who had bowed his head in silence for a long time despite Plantz’s permission, looked at Plantz. And he made a voice that sounded like he was squeezing.
“Please tell me what you call me. I am truly sorry.”
“... That’s me.”
Plantz calmed down his frustration and opened his mouth.
“A brunette who yawns when she’s nervous. A brunette who whistles well.”
“Oh yes, that’s right. Thank you.”
The brown-haired knight, who had lowered his head and secretly yawned, finally smiled. And now he bowed deeply as if he could really pass by and then stepped aside.
– Jeopuk.
Plantz took a step forward and paused for a moment. Then he turned back and looked at the two knights one at a time.
“you.”
“Your Majesty.”
“Rest tomorrow. You.”
“Yes sir.”
“Come to me tomorrow.”
Then, he put the person who had raised doubts to rest and told the person who had trusted him to come find him.
“Have a shield and a sword.”
“Yes, Vice Commander.”
In return for trusting Plantz, the driver who would ride for half a day answered. It was difficult to complain because I knew Planz would be playing along with me anyway. After Plants leaves, I’ll at least say something to the guy who went out on his own and got a vacation, but a mistake is a mistake.
Plantz nodded once and turned around.
And then I moved towards Chermil Palace again.
I want to rest. I’m really tired today. I should go in right now, take a dip in the water, and then come out and cuddle up with the cats. You must do that.
– Jump and jump.
Such thoughts filled my mind, but Plantz continued to walk with an expressionless expression that no one could recognize. Pass through the corridor and around the lakeside to Chermil Palace. After receiving greetings from servants passing around, I went to the second floor, then to the third floor, and finally. To the 4th floor.
“Lowering!”
I heard Reric’s voice as he hurriedly walked up the stairs, perhaps having just heard the news of Plantz’s arrival. It wasn’t anything to scold, and Planz, who had no energy to say anything else, just nodded and walked to the front of his room.
“Lowering.”
“I’m going to rest.”
“Well, that’s not it...”
“For now, tomorrow.”
I’ll go in first. He would have prepared the bath on his own, so I would wash by myself, rest on my own, and then sleep on my own. So say what you have to say tomorrow.
Plantz, who miraculously shortened these long words into four words, opened the door. He then took one step inside and closed the door, leaving Relic outside.
– Sweet.
The light was on.
The scent of tea with vanilla and orange spreads out.
Plantz, with frowning eyes again, raised his head. I turned my gaze towards the guy who had arbitrarily entered my room and was sitting there.
“...... you.”
It must be Kalyan.
It was obvious that he was sitting on Plantz’s beige sofa, wearing something similar to the one in Plantz’s hand, with a happy expression on his face. With Anne on my lap, I put my hand on the back of Lucy, who was gently wagging her tail next to me. There would be Calian sitting leisurely in the room as if it were his own.
Plantz’s mouth, which he had opened while thinking so, closed.
“You’re late.”
Because I didn’t expect that the owner of the room who had just entered the room, who was putting down the teacup without any expression, would have another brother with blond hair and dark blue eyes who didn’t even pay attention.
Plantz, who now realized that it was because of these variables why Reric had such an urgent look on his face when he closed the door and why Reric could not come to meet him at the entrance to Chermil Palace, moved on without saying a word. And after catching a glimpse of the two cats sleeping peacefully on the sofa across from him, he opened his mouth to Randel.
“What is this?”
What kind of rude behavior is this?
That’s what I was going to say.
Because I was so tired and worn out, I tried to say that I didn’t have the energy to talk to my brother today. If not, I would just turn around and go outside again. I thought it would be better to spend the night at Wilhelm’s coffin.
– Sweet!
But I couldn’t do that.
“Ah. Your brother is here.”
Because the door to the room on the 4th floor opened again arbitrarily.
“Have you already fought with Brother Randel?”
That’s because the guy who broke through the seemingly shattering silence came in and his bright voice carried away the silence on the 4th floor.
“Would you like me to take your side?”
Plantz turned his head towards Calian, who was wearing a fancy black jacket full of white embroidery and asked this question. He stared at his enemy-like younger brother for a long time, who must have invited the fifth floor resident into this room.
He smiled brightly.
