Reborn as the Enemy Prince

Chapter 85. Meng (3)

News came from Hina.

– The mother tree of the elves will no longer help me. I guess the conversation went well.

Danu let go of Zeon’s hand.

It was good news. It was definitely good news, as it meant that in the future, there would be no need to be on guard in the forests of the entire continent for fear of encountering Zeon.

But it was also news that announced the coming of battle.

‘When I go to the city of elves, I plan to persuade Danu. So that Danu no longer helps Xeon. If all goes well, Zeon will try to take Whitlin away before she returns to Danu. Because I know what power Whitlin has.’

Arsene also agreed to Plantz’s letter explaining why he was going to Danu. I didn’t want to agree with my co-worker’s opinion, but it wasn’t wrong.

“I see… I understand.”

Arsene answered briefly and called a member of the team waiting outside the room. In the Balkans, he was a wizard named Cézanne Eli, better known as ‘The Yellow Hair that Anne Frightened of’.

“Yes, Vice Commander.”

“Send a signal toward the villa.”

“What can I send you?”

“All you have to do is say you will raise the alert level.”

“Yes, I understand, Vice Commander.”

For reference, Arsene was still maintaining his invisibility.

Although I didn’t want to participate in my colleague’s plan, I knew that the crown prince was not so hot-headed as to immaturely follow his younger brother.

Thanks to this, ever since Calian disappeared, everyone had become accustomed to the voice of the vice-captain commander suddenly appearing out of nowhere and meddling. Therefore, Cézanne, who resolutely responded to the command coming from the empty air, hurried out and Hina moved her hand.

– And the good Crown Prince has now lost his disguise. So, the good crown prince said that it would be okay for the foolish Vice Commander to stop using magic to become invisible.

“Yes, I understand. But is the person who contacted you the prince?”

– no. My brother told me.

“I guess the prince didn’t say anything else?”

– The kind prince just said that the statue was well made.

“You didn’t say anything about this?”

– Yes, nothing.

In fact, he did say one more thing to Hina. .

He was just at the palace. Why did he come all the way to Whitlin? However, those words were nagging concerns about Hina, who had come to a dangerous place to meet the elf Whitlin, so he did not convey them to Arsene. Soon, a voice filled with a bit of disappointment was heard

.

” You no longer get involved in Balkan affairs at all. “It’s an army created by the prince.”

Hina smiled brightly and played with her hand again.

– You’re not the corps commander or vice-corps commander, but the only one who can get involved is you. Even if it was created by a kind prince, you may not know it for the first time, but the kind prince will continue to do so. My brother said that if you get involved, it will just be interference.

“Okay. Of course I know.”

– But you are still helping me through the good crown prince. Don’t be disappointed and just turn off your invisibility. I’m scared of hearing your voice when no one is there. “Oh, that’s right

. “I’m sorry.”

Arsene soon appeared.

Hina, who was shocked for a moment by the strange appearance of only the floating head, greeted her again. After exchanging a few more words, she moved towards the door to do her own thing.

– I’ll check out the people walking around the castle.

“Are you okay? Otherwise, I would feel noisy inside.”

– Because it is noisy, I will work.

“…Okay. “Please.”

Nods.

Hina responded by moving her head and went out. It was to do something that only Hina could do: to closely check whether any of the people passing by the castle had a stone in their heart. –

.. …. Piing! Piing ping!

Almost at the same time as the door closes, the outside of the window starts to glow.

It was a signal of fireworks fired according to Arsene’s words. It was an announcement that the guard would be strengthened, so now is the time to go outside.

“…. .. Phew.”

Arsene let out a short sigh as he stared at the quietly closing door to the crown prince’s room. After that, he clenched and unclenched his fists for a moment and walked around the room before sitting down on a chair. “Why are you so nervous?” Arsene

said

. Another voice echoed through the room.

It was Euria, the person who had been standing silently next to us until now.

Arsene turned his head towards Euria and asked,

“Am I nervous, Chairman?”

“Extremely. It’s like the Association Wizards who are about to take the promotion exam.”

“Is that so?”

“Uh.”

“Probably… it’s because I’m not used to it.”

“Well. “Fight?”

Fight.

It refers to an event where one lives and another dies.

“Can I be unfamiliar with fighting?” Not only is

it not unfamiliar, but it is very familiar.

Didn’t they survive by reducing the number of wolves that lived in the great desert? In a life where one lives and one dies constantly, I have always been the one who ‘survived’. So there was no way I wasn’t used to fighting. “But why are you nervous

? Useless.”

“Actually… it’s my first time conducting alone. Neither the prince nor the corps commander are here right now.”

Arsene Hertz is an outstanding wizard.

This is a fact that not only Allan and Euria, but even Calian does not deny. We need to find a wizard who can surpass Arsene in a person-to-person battle. It wasn’t an easy task.

That’s why he seemed nervous.

Arsene Hertz’s excellence was not his ability as a deputy commander in the Balkans, but rather his ability as a person. He lived in the great desert with his teacher without having to take responsibility for the lives of others. A wizard.

“I heard you did well.”

“Are you talking about the battle where you took on eighty-six Balkan soldiers and took on one prince?” “

Huh. “That.”

“I also know how to lead people. And I also don’t get nervous if the person I’m dealing with is a prince, president of the association. No matter what happens, no one will die, right?”

“Are you afraid that the crew will die?”

“Yes. “That’s right.”

Arsene spoke once again in an inappropriately weak tone.

Seeing that he was scared of leading over a hundred soldiers, Euria opened and opened her mouth. Then, she patted the top of Arsene’s bright blue head as he let out a series of long breaths. He looked down and said,

“The little boy has grown up. I know how to do tricks.”

Arsene slowly raised his head and smiled slightly.

“… Were you caught?”

“Uh.”

The magic stone was stolen by an elf assassin while just looking at what was in Aela’s hand. Euria, who had decided to receive the Harpy’s magic stone, which was several times larger and of better quality than the one sent by Eline, the king of Riverne, gave one sleeping incense and one herbal medicine to Plantz. And, on behalf of Arsene, who had ‘disappeared for a while’, he became a member of the Balkan team. I decided to give various advice to Arsene.

So, if Arsene steps forward, Euria will no longer need to move. Right now, there is no royal family in Whitlin that Euria needs to protect. “Otherwise, what should I say to the president of

the association? Are you there? I don’t have that great magic stone and I don’t have the status to be the Siren of Euria. “Isn’t it impossible to hire the president of the association as an indifferent flower?” It

was just as Arsene said.

Euria is not an individual. Among the magicians of Kairis, she represents all other magicians who are not affiliated with Balkan. .

No matter how much Euria supports Calian, that is only in a power struggle against Brisen or other nobles, and she cannot support treason against Lemaine. It is completely unrelated to the evidence of treason from the villa. This means that we are not in a position to hastily help Calian, who has not yet revealed everything. We cannot take the risk of setting up all the top wizards in Kyris in the plaza. Furthermore, Calian did not request Euria’s cooperation

. Arsene didn’t say anything about Euria, let alone Vulkan, and just made idle remarks about how well Arsene made the statue. So instead, Arsene was whining at

Euria and playing tricks on him. That great dual-attribute wizard. To ask for some help.

“I’d rather ask for help.”

“You’re not in a position to help me just because you ask for help.”

“Well. Is whining that it’s difficult different from asking for help?”

“Isn’t there a justification for not being able to refuse because the vice commander of the Balkan army was so persistent?” ”

You like justification.”

“I like justification. Master said that there is anything a person cannot do as long as he has a reason.”

“You said you were nervous, but you said it well, kid.”

“No, it’s not. I was very nervous.”

“I have to do it. “I have at least a hundred lives.”

“Yes. It’s true that I’m worried that one of them will die.”

“If you’re worried about that, you should ask me properly.”

“If I ask you properly, will you help me?”

“Uh.”

“I don’t have a magic stone to give you.”

“I know.”

” Still, will you help me?”

“Yes.”

“Then please help me, Siren.”

At the end of the conversation, the request was properly made. So, ‘Not the head of the wizard association who couldn’t refuse a request from a wizard with less experience than me, just eu. Lia nodded.

“Of course. I’m bored, so why not have some fun?”

“Thank you.”

“Oh, okay.”

Arsene smiled and stood up from his seat. ”

Next time, I’ll ask you properly without being too snarky.”

“Next time, I won’t be so mean.”

“But I know you’re the one who will help me, President of the Association. ”

The little boy who was so cute when he was in the great desert got older and became so sly.

Euria smiled and opened his mouth again.

“I guess the villa is safe. Otherwise, I’ll go there.”

“I have the crew and Sir Siona Hill, so it will be safe.” ”

I thought it would be better if we were all together, but why did we split them up?” ”

I guess we should all be together. It is too dangerous to gather together. We don’t know how Whitlin will come out, and we don’t even know what Whitlin’s abilities are. I am now wondering whether it would be better to send healer Sir Bern to the villa.

Arsene, who said this, looked at Euria and looked worried about whether or not to tell her something. Then, remembering that Euria had willingly decided to participate in this matter, he opened his mouth.

“Actually… it seems like there are people who block the manifestation of magic and auras.”

This was what Hina had just said in sign language. It was also a story that Euria, who had not learned sign language properly, could not understand.

“Block mana?”

“Yes. They say those guys went looking for the prince. I don’t know what their healing powers are, but they say they have the ability to make magic and aurors useless.”

Euria’s face hardened.

“All the wizards will become burdensome.”

“That’s right, President of the Association. So, in some ways, the villa may be safer. Even if he can’t use Aurors, isn’t Sir Hill a strong swordsman? There are knights and Sir Bridget, so we can easily protect the three servants who followed us there.”

The three servants are not soldiers. Like Demirea, who remained in the lord’s castle, she has no ability to protect herself, and there is no reason to be caught up in the soldiers’ battle and be in danger.

Moreover, if Siona is unable to use Aurors anyway, she will not be able to protect all the remaining Balkan wizards in the lord’s castle. Still, he would definitely be able to protect at least three servants.

“I don’t know if they have learned all of the methods or just some of them, but in any case, the situation is not that good right now. Rather than gathering together and putting everyone in danger, it is better to make sure to protect only those who are not soldiers, Chairman of the Association. .”

“Then why did you ask me to help you? I’m a wizard too.”

“Isn’t the president of the association the person who handles magic best in this lord’s castle? Even if they do something, I think you can figure out a solution.”

Euria closed her mouth without saying another word.

Arsene showed a small bow to Euria. And then he slowly walked out of the room.

A bargain between many people and many people that was decided to pay instead of giving away the whitlin. It was to prepare for the big fight he would lead alone for the first time.

* * *

Whitlin was the variable.

An unexpected variable was introduced.

After Eila eagerly eats raw oysters, Siona takes a rest, and a flame informing the strengthening of security appears in the direction of the lord’s castle where other Balkan members and Demirea are staying.

While watching the surprisingly quiet Lord Castle, Siona’s sword let out a low cry.

‘Whitlin is protecting the castle. You turned away from Xeon. ‘It’s coming this way.’

And Siona relayed the situation in these words.

As they said, Yeongju Castle in the distance was shining golden. This is because Whitlin’s protective shield surrounds the castle.

Aila made a decision as soon as she saw it.

And then I contacted Kalian.

‘Prince, are you busy? I think you need to come save me. ‘Do you want to stay away?’

‘where are you.’

‘It’s a villa, not yet.’

‘wait. ‘I’ll go.’

‘all right.’

Isn’t Hina like that?

Don’t risk your life and fight.

In a situation like this, is there anything you can do to live well and return to a new, expensive house without risking your life? You should ask for help in advance. If I summon Calian again with his life at stake, and if I have bad luck, I don’t want Calian to be unable to protect Aela this time.

– Kwaaaaang!

After calling Calian like that, an explosion sounded from the main gate of the villa, which was like a small castle gate.

Reric, who was startled by the loud noise he heard while taking refuge in the basement of the villa, was surprised again when Jan tried to reassure him by jokingly saying, ‘Don’t worry, you can just rebuild anything that gets broken,’ and nodded without any further questions. I was once again surprised by Den’s reaction.

Siona’s blue aura outside the villa lost its light. Seeing that, Eila slightly raised and lowered her eyebrows, and Siona said calmly.

“It doesn’t matter. As Prince Calian said, the aurors protecting my body are the same. I haven’t lost any aurors, so don’t be surprised.”

“I’m not surprised.”

This was something I already knew.

“What can you do if you just protect yourself? Find a way quickly.”

“It would be great if there was a way to find it with just the heart.”

“The prince did. I heard you hate losing too.”

Siona kept her mouth shut as the words contained both appropriate criticism and appropriate encouragement.

Calian, who has a similar amount of aura to Siona, is said to have overcome Zeon’s mana blocking, but he was unable to find a solution.

“What about Yeongju Castle?”

Siona turned her head and asked Kane Tesman, the orange-haired wizard. Then Kane said, erasing the magic that was disappearing without any help.

“No signal is emerging.”

“I heard that we can also contact you through Prince Calian.”

“They say they can’t communicate with the Little Duke. I guess it’s because of the shield that Whitlin deployed.”

Siona looked into the distance for a moment when the name Whitlin came out of Eila’s mouth.

Whitlin’s shield blocked Xeon’s attack.

That was good up to that point, but at the same time, Yeongju Castle was isolated. Zeon’s soldiers began to come and attack the villa instead of the lord’s castle, and it became a situation where there was no way to know what was going on in the lord’s castle or whether the Balkan members were safe or not.

Xeon is Whitlin.

What on earth are you thinking?

Siona sighed as she looked at Whitlin’s defense shield surrounding the lord’s castle in the distance.

“Since an attack on Yeongju Castle is not possible, is this an intention to take us hostage?”

“They’re probably targeting the servants, not us. Capture us and use them somewhere.”

“I am a capable sword master.”

“I’m also a talented aspiring knight from Sejak.”

“Then it might be useful.”

“But it’s useless because there isn’t any.”

– Kaaaang! Kagang!

The talented Sword Master threw himself away.

And he started swinging his sword at the guys who were breaking through the broken front door.

Eila, who had been watching the scene while slightly lifting her chin, moved quietly.

-Serung …….

I picked up the sword and started dealing with Xeon’s soldiers.

– Suddenly!

– Kwaaak kwajik!

While decapitating one guy, he extended the dagger in his left hand towards the other guy who was running towards him. He quickly pulled out the dagger that dug into the second guy’s solar plexus and stabbed his heart again. As I dodged from the fire arrow that flew so far away, the person who got hit instead rolled around on the floor.

Aila, who hid herself for a moment behind the flames burning so strongly that her eyes were stung, searched in her arms.

– Click.

Then, he took out any magic bullet he could get his hands on and threw it at the Zeon guys in the distance.

“I’m about to explode.”

The magic bullet is about to explode.

Or that too.

– Slut!

It won’t explode.

– Quaaaaaaaa!

A huge explosion shakes the earth.

Instead of an expensive iron sword, he spent a lot of money to buy a top-class magical bullet that swallowed up fifteen of Zeon’s warriors.

“That thing explodes.”

Leaving behind Eila’s unimpressed voice, the Balkan knights rushed forward.

– Shhh! Cankagang!

He slashes his sword towards those who jump out of the explosion. Siona knocked away someone’s water arrow that was hitting the knights. Meanwhile, the dagger thrown by Eila gets stuck between the eyes of the wizard who sent the water arrow.

-Ssam!

– …… Cooung!

After that, Aela sent more daggers at the two visible wizards and kicked her foot again.

He kicked the ankle of the Balkan knight who was trying to put his sword in his back and then plunged the dagger into his neck. Immediately after that, Aila twisted her waist to avoid the memorizing blow from Zeon and launched herself into the air.

Two swords plunge into the spot where Eila was just moments ago.

– Whirr!

– …… Bah!

Aila jumped high and kicked the chin of one of the two who had sent a sword at her with her knee and stretched out her other foot. He then kicked the other guy in the stomach and immediately cut off his head.

– Suddenly!

Eila frowned slightly, pulled out her sword, and launched herself at the next guy.

With a sword, with a knee, with a heel of a boot, with a dagger.

-Ssam!

– Kwaaaaang!

And with magic bullets.

By the time I cut down a few guys and exploded a few more.

– I called Arianne through Chase, but she said the palace gate was closed and my father had left. I can’t contact you.

Calian’s voice came through as if he were submerged in deep water. This is because they did not know that Alan was at Duke Siegfried’s residence at that time.

Ayla, who wasn’t waiting for Alan anyway, answered in a light voice.

– I called the prince. So, the prince can come.

– huh. I opened the way to the forest. I’m heading that way. I’ll go. I’m going, Aila.

The next words did not continue.

It’s obvious even if you don’t listen to what they want to say.

Therefore, Aila, who had thrown her dagger at the spot where the arrow she had just dodged had come from, spoke again.

– I won’t die.

– …… okay.

– huh.

– Ayla.

– yes.

– I’m going.

– all right.

– wait.

– Okay.

The voice returns.

– Don’t die…Aila.

– huh.

I won’t die.
