Reborn as the Enemy Prince

Chapter 66. It was mine (2), but

there were many times when there were two.

But this is my first time with four.

This refers to the number of royal family members encountered directly outside the royal palace.

Calian and Plantz are walking around together, Calian and Demirea are together, or Calian and Kyrie are outside. It seems like Calian is always there, but I’ve seen the two of them walking around. Calian even went to a deserted bookstore, dessert shop, or quiet restaurant with Demirea.

However, it was the first time to see the crown prince and his betrothed proudly walking around Astricia Street, which was crowded with nobles. The only royal who wandered around outside the palace as if it were a light outing like that was Hatsuara, who couldn’t control even the greatest ancient dragon.

“I went out to dinner a while ago and came back out. I went into the restaurant and saw Prince Calian eating with Duke Siegfried. You thought my eyes were wrong.”

“I don’t know when I’ll get used to the sight of you walking around without blocking the road or having an escort.”

“You won’t get used to it. When His Majesty the Crown Prince goes to Camilon and the other princes leave Kairisis after they turn 20, you won’t be able to see them like that anymore.”

Thanks to this, there was a quiet commotion.

Since they were nobles who would not have been surprised to meet the royal family, there was no outward cheering or crowding around to watch, but they continued to be followed by enormous gazes.

“By the way, Your Majesty is truly amazing. You keep sending not one, but two people out of the palace like that.”

“But doesn’t it look nice? Until a few years ago, I could barely see them until I went to the palace or had a big event.”

“That’s true of us, but there are probably some people who don’t think that way.”

“There will be no problems with your safety even if you move around like that, so I guess you can allow it without worrying.”

no.

Lemain, who was really worried, never allowed this outing. He must have been shocked by the report by now.

Lemain even found out later that his two sons had taken Arsene to Siegfried. Since he went out again, I thought he went out to play in front of the palace for a while, but only Alan knows how surprised Lemain was when he heard that he was going to the moving magic circle. Alan didn’t care though.

As a result, Lemain did not even get a chance to object to this outing. Of course, Calian had the brilliant idea that it would be good to get permission from Lemain in advance. However, Lemaine was in a meeting, and Calian did not have enough patience to wait for the meeting to end, and the knights guarding the main gate of the palace did not forget the gentle Plants and our Hina, which were essential items for this outing. It just wasn’t possible.

Anyway, that’s how we arrived at Astricia Street.

“But that’s him.”

The Prince is smiling as if he has just plucked the most gorgeous flower in the world. The Crown Prince is lowering his eyes with a face that makes you wonder if he is even breathing. The Duke of Siegfried has a serious and dignified expression as always. There was a place where the eyes of those who glanced at these three stopped as if they had made a promise.

“I’ve seen you a few times, but seeing them together like that, I guess it wasn’t a rumor that they were engaged.”

“Did you say he was a healer?”

It was Demirea who was used to people’s gaze, not Hina. But right now, it was Hina who was getting the most attention. A healer who does not need any sacred items, and the betrothed to the half-elf crown prince. That alone would be enough to attract attention, but with royals and even a minor duke present, there is bound to be endless attention.

“Hina, are you uncomfortable?”

Calian asked quietly from the black horse, which was enjoying this situation with its head held high as always and the sound of its hooves raised. Then Hina shook her head and moved her hands.

– It’s not that uncomfortable. I’m just a little surprised. When I walked around with my brother, no one looked at me like this.

“That’s because I was scared of Kirie and couldn’t look at her. She’s really tall, but she always looks angry. Plus, she’s my knight.”

– But the kind prince isn’t afraid of people.

“You’re pretty.”

These words do not contain the slightest hint of boasting. Hina laughed quietly at the words that came out in an overly casual voice. After that, there was a sound of clicking one’s tongue filled with frustration followed by a deep sigh. It came from the mouths of two other people who knew full well that Calian was a person who could not lie.

Calian, who was smiling and ignoring the reactions of his fiancé and older brother, pointed to one side of the street. He didn’t bother to move his hands, which were wrapped in pure white bandages, which stood out even more thanks to the dark purple jacket embroidered with gold thread and the pure black shirt.

“Hey, I see Lord Slake’s clothing store.”

The eyes of people who were looking at Hina naturally moved to that hand. By the time we leave the clothing store, rumors will have spread throughout Kyrisis that Calian has injured his hand.

Kalian, who had achieved satisfactory results, entered Shatin’s clothing store without further delay. And when he brought out Planz’s dress design, he tried to be patient, trying to close his eyes that wanted to hang Shatin upside down as he tried to somehow match her with a dress that had something in common.

Pink, pale yellow, blue-violet, light blue, beige. A gorgeous dress with many layers and full of lace and frills. A dress with a length and decoration that won’t be too uncomfortable. While choosing dresses of various colors and shapes one by one with the help of Demirea, who interpreted sign language by her side, Hina never once glanced at the light green dress.

Green grape dress. Calian knew that it was because he was worried that Planz might remember the thing that Silike wore last time. I’m sure Plants would have recognized him too.

– I don’t like flower decorations.

Because Hina, who loves all flowers in the world, said this.

– Please wear a lot of pretty jewelry instead. The crown prince will buy everything.

And Hina said something unexpected to Kalyan. This time, only Plants found out that he was trying to avoid incurring more debt in the future after collecting all the money for the hard work he had done to save his life.

– Can you buy it for me?

“there is.”

– I’ll dress well.

“huh.”

So, Hina was putting on pretty clothes, Dmirea was looking at the clothes she would never wear even for the rest of her life, and Plants was paying the bills and living comfortably without helping or spending any money. Suddenly, I felt like I was sending my wild baby to somewhere. Feeling uncomfortable, Kalian left the clothing store.

“Do you want to go back right away or take a break?”

Hina, who is excited, and Plantz, who would have never come to Astricia at a time like this, are the same as themselves. Calian, who saw the two, answered Demirea.

“I thought I’d be gone for a bit. It’s been a while.”

“Please do so.”

Demirea, who answered briefly, entered a cafe on Astricia Street and bought a strawberry ice cream carefully served by a muscular man with a vaguely familiar appearance, hair the color of Adinia petals, and handed it to Hina. I didn’t buy a share for the two royals, who couldn’t eat food on the street, and for myself, who doesn’t like ice cream that much.

As he walked in front of the small fountain in the middle of the street, letting go of the gaze that had already subsided, Calian looked at Planz.

“Dmirea said she would come to the palace tomorrow with Lirie, but I think you should save some time for me.”

“okay.”

“I might not come.”

“why.”

“I heard he was stubborn and said he would come back when he turns ten.”

“…… age.”

“I guess that’s why they didn’t come. I heard that other children don’t enter the palace until they turn ten.”

Plantz nodded as he silently added, “In Kairis.” I finally understood why Lirie, who had even received an invitation, had not come to the palace.

“It doesn’t matter.”

“Yes. I asked you to tell me that it was not decided by the palace.”

“okay.”

“I’ll tell you when I arrive.”

“okay.”

Soon Calian turned his head towards Dmirea. And I wanted to say thank you for helping me in many ways today. I came here for a reason, but I also wanted to say that it was nice to spend time leisurely for the first time in a long time.

– Flash!

– Wow! Pow!

However, I silenced my mouth as a loud noise exploded, lighting up the sky like a firecracker. The red eyes that drew pleasant curves became bright.

The direction of Naerangsha that Gray said he walks often these days. Late evening with lots of people. A magical bullet exploded in the air.

okay. It’s not like firecrackers. It’s definitely a magic bullet.

“……Aila.”

As the people, who thought that the sudden fireworks that briefly lit up the dark sky were nothing more than cheap fireworks, took their steps again, Calian, who understood the situation without further ado, turned his head.

“Hina, stay here. Don’t go anywhere else, but stay right next to Demirea and your brother. Brother, please stay for a moment. There was heavy drinking, so the Balkan members will come out. Demirea, I will ask you to stay until then.”

Calian threw out a few words and jumped on top of Raven. Raven, who fully understood the owner’s will to ignore the fact that he was not allowed to run within the capital city, stamped his feet at the fastest speed.

It feels like remnants of flame are falling onto Raven’s shadow, which disappears in an instant. Plantz opened his mouth towards Demirea, who was looking around with a stiff expression on her face.

“If it’s true that my brother’s new subordinate set it off, I might be in trouble.”

It’s not inside the capital. Calian should never have to take out his sword while people were watching. Demirea, who was already thinking the same thing, shook her head. Then he took out a small, round sphere from his pocket and threw it into the sky.

Unlike the loud explosion that rang out in the distance, the sphere that Demirea threw did not emit any light or sound. But Demirea’s black horse pricked its ears, raised its head, and stamped its feet several times.

Demirea tapped the horse’s neck and opened her mouth.

“Siegfried’s knights will come here too. Stay safe.”

“okay.”

Plantz, who realized that the bomb from before was a silenced bomb that could only be found by listening to the words of a well-trained Siegfried, responded.

Soon Demirea mounted her horse. Then he walked forward a few steps, shook his head, and turned back. Then he got off his horse and stood in front of Plants and Hina.

“It’s generally a burden, but sometimes there’s nothing safer than people’s gaze.”

Demirea said something incomprehensible and grabbed Hina’s hand. Then, he placed Hina’s hand in Plantz’s hand.

“then.”

Demirea bowed lightly and got back on the horse. After that, he rode his horse and disappeared, following the direction Calian was heading towards. Leaving behind the crown prince and Balkan healer holding hands.

The nobles crowding around stopped.

Numerous eyes are fixed on the two hands clasped together.

It’s good to learn an effective way to solve problems with Hina, who has been hurt from time to time and has no interest other than holding Planz’s hand too many times, which makes eating ice cream a little uncomfortable, but the Duke also admits that in fact, I’m not that weak. In his complicated mind as he realized that he had not been doing anything for him, Plantz was thinking that he should not spar with Calian or Kirie for the time being.

“…… under.”

So the two began to wait for the drivers safely and soundly amidst the pouring snow.

* * *

A blue warbler.

The ignition button that I accidentally pressed the day I first held the magic bullet in my hand. There was an incident where I couldn’t release it and threw it far away to a place where no one was around.

There was an explosion and a cloud of dust rose under the clear sky. At the edge of the trace where the magic bullet exploded, a small bird lay dead.

“I have a personality that likes to take losses, but this is it.”

Blue Warbler.

A small blue bird that died without any cause. I didn’t forget that bird.

So I took out a magic bullet. threw it into the air. To let you know that whether you come to help or run away, you can figure it out. Then he said something like that. He says he has a personality that is good at taking losses.

Aila, who had never heard such an evaluation before, smiled slightly.

“There is no need to kill unrelated people.”

“If you had thrown it at me, I would have died instead.”

“I’m afraid that people who are more expensive than you will die as well. I feel like the building here is weak.”

“You have to lose that.”

“Because it’s my choice. Either I suffer a loss or not.”

The guy in front nodded his head.

Then, he slightly lifted his long, thin sword and held it against the moonlight that had just begun to rise. The guy’s gaze glanced at the thick red light that was speckled in droplets and then turned to Aila.

“Who is it? The person who sent you. I’m curious, so I think I should find out.”

“Well, who is it?”

“It must hurt. I stabbed you where it hurts. Doesn’t it hurt?”

The man’s sword pierced above the right collarbone and exited.

In an instant, in such a split second.

Aila, who was standing unwavering with a normal face while enduring the pain that gave away too much information about where and how she was injured, answered.

“It should hurt, but it doesn’t look like it hurts. Are you upset?”

“Just disappointing.”

The guy who answered lightly shook off the knife in his hand. Light drops of blood, like those spreading from Aela’s wound, scattered and disappeared. The guy who was looking at it for a while muttered to himself.

“It really doesn’t hurt. You’re responding well.”

A smile appeared on Aila’s lips once again. Then, one corner of his mouth twitched up.

“… You’re a bird.”

“It’s not.”

“That’s right.”

“now.”

“now?”

Eila nodded.

The guy tilted his head.

-Ssam!

At that time, a dagger extended from Aela’s arms and was aimed at the guy’s neck. At the same time, Aila kicked her foot. He was holding a sword with his left hand, replacing his right arm, which he could not use.

– Whistling!

– Kaaaang!

The guy who swung his arm so fast that the wind blew out of the hem of his sleeve caught Aila’s dagger. Then he turned his body once and blocked the incoming sword strike.

A guy who approached without even Eila noticing.

So Aila knew very well that this attack would not be successful. Therefore, Aila immediately ducked as if she had prepared in advance and avoided the guy’s counterattack. Holding back the screams that threatened to spill out at any moment as the severed bones and muscles stabbed each other.

– Hiss!

Eila lightly stepped on the floor with one arm and stretched out her foot toward the guy’s ankle. It was a fierce attack that broke the ankle of Sejak, who had received the same training as Aila, but he easily dodged it by flying away.

His sword flies again.

– Kagagak kaang!

– Kaaaaang!

Eila, who almost rolled to the side to avoid the flying sword, quickly stood up. And I barely managed to block the man’s sword strikes one after another.

Even though it is a thin sword, it is quite heavy. It is a sword that weighs more than what Kyrie uses. Every time I block a single attack, I feel like my shoulders are going to sink.

“It’s a bird.”

“I said no, not now.”

“Oh, I did.”

The guy who shrugged his shoulders and said, “I’m very forgetful,” lunged at Eila once again.

– Kaaang kaaang! Kagan kang!

– Shhh kang!

He continued to block, bounce, and dodge the flying swords. He constantly moved his arms and feet, sending out throws that he would not have had to throw if his right arm had not been injured.

The bastard’s sword strikes once again.

Because it’s fast, it seems like just throwing it away is enough, but if you actually catch it, you know that it’s a weight that will press down on your neck. So Aila twisted her body to avoid it and stabbed the sword into the guy’s abdomen.

– Tuk!

The tip of the sword of the guy who bit off one leg touched the tip of Aila’s head. In that wind, the silver hairpin that had been neatly placed came loose and fell to the floor. A little of the long sea-colored hair is cut off and scattered.

Thick!

A pain that was difficult to ignore, as if an electric current was flowing, stirred through my mind again. Aela clenched her lower lip and tightened her grip on her sword.

-Ssam!

The last dagger that came out of the chest was extended towards the bastard. The guy, who was still smiling, stretched out his left hand.

– Kwaaak!

And he caught the blade of the dagger flying at him.

Drip, drip, drip.

Red blood drips down the dagger’s blade from the man’s palm. The guy who was holding onto something that didn’t need to be held on grinned.

“It’s been a while since I came here. That’s why I have no idea who you are. I need to get hurt too so I don’t get hurt more seriously.”

It refers to self-defense.

Since he didn’t know who was behind Aila, he was saying he was going to claim that he was attacked by Aila first and responded back.

That also meant that I would stop playing and go back.

“If it hurts, I shouldn’t have said it hurts. It would have been even more unfair if I had endured it and died.”

He grabbed the handle of the dagger.

The guy who held his sword in his right hand and the dagger thrown by Eila in his left kicked his foot. Eila bit her lip once again and glared at him.

He moved the sword he was holding in his clumsy left hand to his right hand. Rush towards the guy. I thought I should at least collect the price of the bead that broke when it fell.

– Taaaat!

– Kaaang kaaang!

I blocked the guy’s sword. Raise it up. I turned around and stretched out my legs. I kicked the guy in the stomach. I bent down and dodged the sword that came flying at me again. I stretched out my sword and tried to cut off the guy’s legs.

– Kagagak!

– Phew!

The sword was blocked.

The dagger that had been in his left hand until now was digging into his flesh. The blade dug deep twists. widens the wound And get out.

Eila took a deep breath at the vivid sensation and unconsciously took a step back. The guy who was looking at Aila like that made a disappointed face.

“Ah. There…”

He ‘made’ a disappointed face.

“You’d better be careful.”

“Tap.”

Aila’s leg caught on the low railing on the rooftop.

With nothing to do, my body leans back. My body leans downward with no support. His head and back came off the rooftop, and Jongnay’s feet fell to the floor.

Green eyes were seen looking down at the fall of the blue bird with an expressionless face dotted with red blood droplets.

crash

It was a green bird, but its wings had been broken for a long time.

crash

I closed my eyes.

however.

– Pearl… Luck!

– Percussion!

It sounded like a large piece of cloth catching wind.

I didn’t feel like hitting the floor until a while later. Instead, I felt like something solid was supporting my back. I felt like I was rolling around on the floor. I felt like my whole body was being hugged tightly, as if it would protect me from everything in the world.

I heard a voice.

“Ah…gotcha.”

I can feel the arms holding me trembling.

I heard a voice.

I hear a voice.

“Aila.”

Not dead yet.
