Chapter 80. Meow (2)
Something clicks! and hit the table.
A dark wooden table decorated with platinum. If it had been a human hand that had knocked on that expensive furniture, the sword of Ren, the guard knight standing behind it, would have been pulled out immediately. This is not because the table is expensive, but because the seat of the table owner has now become very expensive.
However, it was not a human hand that knocked on such an expensive table. So, instead of pulling out his sword, Ren just smiled quietly.
The beautiful white cat that was sitting on the table, blocking the sleeping gray cat that was lying peacefully on the table, tapped its tail once again! I hit it. Thanks to this, the person who tried to take out the document that the gray cat was lying on only ended up incurring more hatred from the white cat, so he had no choice but to withdraw his hand.
“Isn’t she a very clever cat?”
The wizard who was sitting across from the person said that he could get his hands on the ‘Request for Waterway Improvement in the County of Wrights’, which became the gray cat’s rug, without passing the white cat. His face looked as if he had absolutely no intention of taking out the documents and handing them over.
A person who knows very well that if you ask what makes someone smart, you will get a useless answer. Lemain, the man who was greatly hated by the white cat, silently raised his teacup. Then I saw white and gray fur floating along with chamomile petals and put it back down. Because the wizard sitting in front will never get rid of it.
“I heard that Healer Sir Bern returned yesterday morning.”
“It seems like the cat has become smarter, just like its owner, because it chooses the right person to hate and raises its fur like this.”
“... They don’t take the cats away.”
“Anyway, I need to give you some food now. It’s time to get hungry.”
“I gave it to you.”
“Have you already given it to me?”
“Can you finally hear me now?”
“In any case, that cat must have given up on his actions. Even though he hated you so much, he didn’t refuse food. I don’t know if he is smart like his owner or has become mellow due to caring hands, but it is truly amazing.”
Who on earth am I talking to right now?
LeMaine, who had become bitter three times thanks to a cat sleeping with papers as bedding, another cat ‘protecting’ the cat, and a wizard who only said what he wanted to say, let out a long sigh. Alan, who wasn’t very interested in that situation, simply brushed away the cat hair in his cup, drank his tea, and put it down.
“It smells really good.”
“I don’t know.”
Because I can’t drink it.
The cat fur floating on the brown tea water was gently shaking.
Lucy, who had protected the innocent Anne from Lemain’s unscrupulous touch, fell down with her chin resting on her front paws.
“Aeoong.......”
A faint cry comes out.
The sound was so pitiful that Alan clicked his tongue and gently stroked Lucy’s round head.
“Just wait ten nights. Your Majesty will be back by then.”
“Eong.”
Who should you blame?
In the end, if you look at the fact that Lemain’s three sons left the palace in one way, it turns out that Lemain was the culprit.
“They say the white cat is Calian’s cat.”
Every time she hears Lemain’s voice, Lucy’s ears perk up. I must have reacted unconsciously because I heard a voice quite similar to Plantz’s.
“It’s Prince Calian’s cat that follows His Majesty Plantz more. That’s because he cares for it so much.”
“I didn’t know that kid would like animals.”
“What should I do since I have no place to give affection to? I should have held a cat at least to keep my embrace from getting cold.”
“...... okay.”
“Anyway, don’t think that even cats hate you. They are children who do for you what your majesty could not give you.”
“Okay.”
“Now you know what to do.”
Alan, who gave me a tireless beating, stretched out his hand. And with a careful hand, she gently pulled out the document just below the top of the stack of documents that were lying under Anne’s stomach. Anne had no choice but to wake up to retrieve the top document that touched her.
– The Inspector General
Katabuta A short title without much explanation caught Alan’s eye. Short but neat handwriting was also visible. Alan, who had a look of surprise on his face because it was quite familiar, opened his mouth.
“Did Duke Siegfried send a letter of reflection?”
That’s because it was Slayman’s handwriting.
LeMaine frowned as he came across something he had left aside because he had no intention of reading it.
“I guess it was sent about yesterday’s incident.”
“I see.”
“Do you mind if I take a look?”
“Do whatever you want.”
It sounds good, but in fact it is just a statement of reflection.
Slayman came to the training ground in Balkan, which was quiet after the training of the crew the evening before. Siona and Teilan were standing together.
Slayman, who lied to Damian Scone, the Balkan division commander at the training ground, that he had ‘received permission from the corps commander Allan Manasil,’ greeted Siona and Teilan on the spot.
It means there was a fight.
“The Little Duke’s sorrow will be deep again.”
Alan, whose name had been arbitrarily sold to Slayman, shook his head. And the circumstances are well filled with plausible content. I covered the reflection paper again.
“Anyway, this is a sparring that was supposed to take place once the palace is stabilized, so just laugh it off. Watching the two fight will be a great insight for the Balkans as well.”
“I’m still thinking of doing that.”
“Lord Hill lost his sword before he could make a few moves, so there will be another sparring between the two soon.”
“I’ll take note.”
Still, isn’t Slay the only one who acts without knowing the line at all? Even if the Balkan training ground was used as a sparring ground for the two sword masters, there would be no harm to the royal family. Rather, it is a good thing.
“Now that I think about it, I heard that Calian also sparred with Lord Castrin.”
“It wasn’t even a fuss.”
“Then what if you get hurt?”
“All sword-wielding guys are like that. Does it make any difference just because you’re a prince?”
As Alan said this, he picked up the raspberry pie on the table. The taste of the generous custard cream and raspberries go together very well. Alan, who seemed to really like it and ate three more in a row, opened his mouth.
“Prince Calian has placed one more circle.”
Guard driver Ren, who was standing as if he didn’t exist, raised his head.
Was it only Len who was surprised by Alan’s words that came out so suddenly?
Lemain, who was staring at Alan’s mouth as he put four sweets in his mouth, closed his mouth. Then, I looked at Lucy, Anne, the teacup, and the flowers on top, then turned my attention back to Alan.
“Are you saying that Calian has become a 5th circle wizard?”
“It’s worth having a good teacher.”
Is this the price of having a good teacher?
There are a whopping 5 circles. Of course, I haven’t mastered the 5th circle yet, but I’ve just acquired the circle, but even so, it’s still the 5th circle. The same number of circles as Arsene and Needlen Euria were in my heart.
Lemain’s eyes naturally look at Alan.
It’s obvious what he wants to say from his mouth. Therefore, Alan nodded and said.
“You’re faster than me.”
He entered the 4th circle faster than Allen. It still is. Even if it is a miraculous achievement achieved in a situation where life is at stake, it is a great thing.
“It wasn’t my job to prepare a celebration for my birthday.”
like this.
Calian and Plantz, who were making full use of the bracelet that had not yet been returned to Jan, were in a lot of turmoil as usual.
– Brother, do you know that?
– what.
– Even Hertz cannot eat rabbit meat.
-Why is that?
– Listen. Just like you can’t eat rabbits and piglets, Sir Hertz can’t eat rabbit meat either. The reason you and Lord Hertz are picky eaters is the same. I heard that Sir Hertz couldn’t even eat a bird’s egg, so he did something about it and ended up with Coco.
– so.
– Wouldn’t it be better to eat it than to be rumored to have similar tastes to Sir Hertz?
– no.
– ...... yes.
okay. What can I do if I hate it so much?
Whether it keeps coming or not, I have no choice but to clean it up.
“I’m glad you’ve made a full recovery, Prince Calian.”
The nobleman’s words were heard again.
‘Kalian’ nodded and took his hand off the teacup.
The orange-flavored black tea rippled for a moment.
Calian glanced down at it and then raised his head. And while trying to hide his dissatisfaction with having been silenced by Plants until now, he smiled sweetly at the nobleman who was worried about his well-being.
“I didn’t think the distance between Kyrisis and Whitlin was very far, but looking at it today, it seems to be farther than I thought.”
“Yes, prince. I guess that’s true. It’s too easy for you to walk....”
“It seems like the same words are used with different meanings.”
The nobleman, whose words he was saying, was cut off, kept his mouth shut.
‘I’m glad you’ve made a full recovery.’
Then, he thought back to what he had just said and weighed what Calian had said. After that, he opened his mouth with a look on his face as if he had just heard something completely absurd.
“How could I have anything else to say about the fact that the prince’s injury has healed? I am telling you this because I consider it truly fortunate.”
“...... Is that so.”
“Of course I do.”
“Then I’m glad too. Actually, there was something that bothered me.”
Navia, who had been listening to the nobles and Calian, opened her mouth at these words.
“Prince. What happened?”
It was Navia, who had already talked to Planz the night before. Of course I knew that Calian had been kidnapped. Wasn’t it Navia who immediately confirmed who was the person who hurriedly took Plants and where he was?
Still, it makes me laugh when he talks to me like nothing happened.
Calian, who couldn’t hold back his laughter and wrapped it nicely again and put it out to his mouth, nodded. Then he looked straight into Navia’s eyes and answered.
“It’s Whitlin where the breeze is so good, but you guys kept the windows closed all night. So I guess I didn’t have the time to tell you to open the windows, so I guess that’s what I did....” “I guess I was worried.”
Are you really happy that you got better?
I wonder if it’s a pity that Calian’s quick recovery meant he lost the opportunity to attack Plants. It seems that the fact that something happened to Plantz when Calian was injured was not Calian’s intention to attack Plantz while he was out of harm’s way.
Calian stopped talking and slowly closed his eyes.
‘It is true that I was concerned that something disturbing might happen. Therefore, we carefully looked into it, but there were no people who actually tried to commit the terrible thing I told the prince about yesterday. We will never raise arms against the palace.’
Before going to lunch, Navia, who had come to Kalian separately, said this. It is said that Freyr, who was concerned that they might attack Plants, took the initiative, but no major nobles actually attempted to carry out the attack.
Navia had a complicated look on her face as she said that even though she said that, she still didn’t believe them. This is why it was all understandable from Navia’s point of view, including the nobles who had decided to attack Planz but failed to do so, and the royal family who did not trust them all due to Freire, who had hastily kidnapped Plantz out of concern for them.
– Knock knock knock.
Calian’s fingertips tap the table as he ponders.
I feel like I want to get out of Whitlin right now.
But aren’t there too many things to check? So in the meantime, we have no choice but to continue to stay here. However, for that to happen, safety had to be ensured.
– Knock knock knock.
So what should I say?
What decision should I make?
“I guess I just need to ask you one question.”
But then.
A low voice rang through the banquet hall.
The person who blocked the nobles’ mouths by not saying anything and told them to talk to each other after eating, and then watched the nobles and Navia without saying anything after that.
It was Planz.
Plantz took one look at Randel, who was sitting next to him, and stood up. Relic came over and stomped on the chair without even having time to remove it. He made a slightly annoying noise, stood up, and looked down at the nobles.
The gazes clearly contained barely contained repulsion. The gaze is clearly different from when looking at Kalian. I watched them for a long time, as if engraving each look in their eyes. Then.
– Jeopuk.
I walked one step, making a short sound.
I passed behind Calian, followed Navia, who was sitting next to him, and then took another step and passed behind Freyr. I just kept walking.
white shirt. Pearl colored tie. A tight-fitting apricot-colored jacket worn without a vest. White pants. While dressed like that, I walked slowly through the banquet hall as if I was taking a walk.
– Jump and jump.
He seemed to be organizing his thoughts, but continued walking as if he had no hesitation. Plants continued to walk like that in a place where there was no sound.
Before long, Plantz, who had returned to his original position, turned around. He placed both hands on the chair he had been sitting on just a moment ago. And then I raised my head.
At the same time.
– Whaaah!
A change has occurred.
The thin hair grows longer as if flowing down.
It has a color like pomegranate juice dropped into a clear lake.
A new life appears in the light green eyes that seemed to have just bloomed. It feels red like a beating heart.
The waist becomes thinner and the shoulders become narrower.
Fingers that used to have protruding bones become longer.
Long bright red hair and red eyes. It transformed into an image of incomparable beauty.
‘Planz’, whose face and body had changed, stretched out his arms. Then, he took the bracelet off the wrist of Kalyan, who was sitting right next to him.
– Sweet!
At the same time, everyone watched as Kalian’s black hair turned lighter and his red eyes returned to their original light green color. But not everyone could see it.
Because the person who looked at me with such cold eyes just a moment ago changed in an instant. Because it has changed into something I was so in awe of.
“Let me ask you just one question.”
Freya’s son, who came in the full form of Freya, opened his mouth.
“Are you following Calian? Or are you Freya’s son?”
And I was asked this:
