Reborn as the Enemy Prince

Chapter 51. They say it’s because I’m in puberty (5),

but I don’t know how long it’s been since I’ve been to the beach.

The sound of the waves was quiet and the sky was still. The sandy beach shines pure white and the black sky is full of silver stars.

It was indeed a dream-like appearance, but Arsene, standing in the middle of it, felt a sense of relief.

The condition of all four bodies is the same.

Whether the heart was pierced, the throat was cut, or the throat was cut, there is no trace of it being blocked. Other than minor wounds, there was only one major wound. It is said that the fatal wound was inflicted by a single blow without any time to block the incoming attack.

I didn’t know that Calian’s swordsmanship was like that. Even though I knew this, the reason I felt good about it was because I knew very well how strong the people who are currently dead are.

“How much stronger the prince will become… I can’t even imagine.”

Those who materialize mana and use it are wizards.

Swordmasters are those who strengthen their bodies and swords with mana.

And Calian is a wizard and sword master.

I learned on my own how to transform mana into aura and magic power into aura and magic power at will. Thanks to this, he became the only person who could materialize and wield the aura converted into magical power in the form of a ‘sword’.

This means that when your mana is depleted, the sword you are holding in your hand and swinging disappears.

Therefore, Calian did not often use magic together during sparring. However, in the battle a little while ago, he used his sword while raising the wind as if there was no problem. He killed his opponent with swordsmanship that was no different from his usual skills.

This is because your aura and magical power increase and you become accustomed to magic. Since he was originally a swordsman, it was clear that his swordsmanship would also become stronger as his body grew and he was able to display his former strength.

So I won.

Because I couldn’t imagine how much stronger I would become, I thought,

“If it’s like this… I guess there’s almost no chance of my body being healthy if I get caught making a statue.”

do.

anyway. This crazy blue-haired bastard, who still hadn’t given up on the statue, thought that the knights who were far away couldn’t possibly find out the goodness he felt now. Looking at the condition of the corpses, he is convinced that his chances of survival have decreased while making the statue of Calian, but those knights will be convinced because they are wary of Calian’s strength.

Because of this, Arsene decided to give up examining the body more closely.

– Howling!

A deep red fire broke out on the pure white sandy beach.

“Vice Commander Hertz. Turn off the fire. We need to investigate.”

When Arsene, who was inspecting the body, suddenly burst into flames, one of the knights standing far away came running to stop Arsene. He was leading the knights.

Before he could get any closer to the body, Arsene moved first. Arsene, who moved straight towards the knight through teleportation, blocked his path.

“What kind of investigation can we do when they are all already dead?”

“This is a suspicious group that attacked the princes of Kairis. Of course, we have to investigate. What does that mean?”

“I’ve never seen those attempting assassination carry items that would reveal their affiliation. Wouldn’t it be better to deal with it quickly and follow after the princes rather than wasting time with unnecessary effort?”

“This is Secretia. We have the power to decide what happens in Secretia.”

“In Secretia, I wasn’t even involved in the fight from the beginning, so I don’t know what they say they have the power to decide.”

It was Kalian who prevented them from interfering in the fight, and it was Plantz who made sure that no one interfered. Thanks to obediently following the words of the two princes, there were no casualties, but there was also no way to express an opinion on the matter.

“Don’t worry, the Kairis royal family will not have any problems with Secretia for not investigating them.”

Arsene, who knew well what the knight was worried about, drove the wedge in with these words.

While the brief scuffle continued, all of the body’s clothes were already burned. After that, the fire did not go out and continued to burn what was left. As an unpleasant smell swirled around the area, the knight frowned for a moment and looked at Arsene.

I realized that Arsene’s intention was not to show the state of the body. But I couldn’t say anything else.

“I hope you take responsibility for saying you won’t make a problem.”

“As I said, I am the vice commander of the Vulcan army. I am not in a position to say something I cannot take responsibility for.”

In the end, the driver agreed to burn the body after reaching this level of agreement.

The human body is tenacious.

It takes quite a long time to burn off even one trace of a sword.

“Rest. Let’s go when all the bodies are burned.”

Therefore, after saying this to the knights, Arsene’s gaze fell on the floor as he looked around.

I could see scattered blood stains. Blood stains spread in a semicircular shape due to scattering from a cut wound. Blood stains dotted as if they had fallen from the tip of a sword. Blood stains that flowed from the corpse and spread widely. These are all the blood stains of warriors. Arsene, who did not feel uncomfortable or uncomfortable with the sight, began to scan the traces of the fight.

Then, Arsene’s bright blue eyes were fixed on the blood stains that seemed to have fallen in front of the body of the gray-haired warrior.

There is no body associated with the blood stains. Instead of footprints, there were only traces of blood where the person who must have been the owner of the blood had walked. Then, at some point, the blood stains stopped flowing.

‘It’s true that you were hurt as expected.’

It’s definitely Kalyan’s.

Arsene cannot smell blood, but can read the flow of mana. Calian, who came near the knights, was also aware of the reason why he used clean magic so secretly.

Arsene, who was looking down at the floor with a bitter face, tilted his head for a moment because it was confirmed that his prediction was correct. Then, I bent my knees and crouched down and looked at the difference in ‘color’ between the traces around me and Calian’s traces.

“What the hell is this…”

All the other blood that had not yet soaked into the pure white sand was still red. Except for the ones that fell where Calian was standing and where Calian moved.

It’s black.

The blood Calian shed was black.

“It’s a mess.”

It was only now that I realized that Calian, who returned alone with Plantz, had not simply suffered a stab wound. Arsene, who had erased the blood stains on the floor with clean magic, carefully checked the condition of the bodies in the flames. Arsene, seeing that all traces of his swordsmanship had disappeared in the unquenched fire, turned around without hesitation.

[Sleep]

And I unleashed a magic that I rarely used. When Arsene first appeared here, unlike the thirteen knights who nervously raised their hands on their swords, it was towards the two knights who walked towards Arsene.

“What are you doing!”

The knight, who had no idea why Arsene made such a sudden move, asked in surprise, and Arsene opened his mouth to say something in response.

– Tap, tap, tap!

The sound of a horse’s hooves was heard in a place where no one else should come.

A horse with a pitch-black body, only the right ankle white.

It was Raven.

The Raven was carrying no one.

Raven ran without hesitation across the sandy beach and stopped in front of Arsene. Then, I looked at Arsene, telling him to hurry up and not waste time, saying I would give him a ride just this one time.

Although his pride was slightly hurt, Arsene, who understood Raven’s eyes very well, opened his mouth to the knight.

“I will have to explain later. After the body is incinerated, take those two knights and return to the palace. If they wake up, it would be better if you secretly ask them if they are related to the assassins.”

After that, Arsene climbed onto the saddle as if there was nothing more to see, and Raven immediately kicked his feet. Above Raven, who was speeding up, Arsene looked like he had forgotten something, then quickly turned his head and made a loud noise.

“If it’s okay, please take my horse and come! It’s called Roro!”

Forgetting the detailed reason for putting the knight to sleep, the blue-haired wizard barely had time to introduce his horse’s name as he quickly walked away.

* * *

Twenty six no eight no.

Thirty two.

“……Thirty-four.”

Not a warrior of the great desert.

They were not the knights of Secretia, nor were they the Sejaks that Calian remembered.

Thirty-four prosecutors whose affiliation, skills, and identity are unknown.

Fortunately, they didn’t show much interest in Raven and Estina, who helped them escape from this place. What was not fortunate was that the swords of two of them were glowing red.

Another good thing is that there were no familiar faces, so there was no hesitation in my hands. Another thing that is not fortunate.

– Thick!

The pain in my heart I felt while making the sword.

The same pain I felt when I first woke up here in Kalyan’s body came back. In addition to detoxification and wound healing, the magic power contained in the circle in the heart continued to be overused, so it seems that the power of blessing has reached its limit.

“I should have listened to you, brother.”

Calian laughed and told a joke.

Plantz looked at the shield in front of him and let out a low voice.

“My brother speaks and acts differently.”

“There’s nothing more difficult than using a shield with clean magic.”

“not.”

“What should I do? If I make the mistake of pretending to be bad friends in a situation like this, my brother will die. Rather, I think it would be better to save my brother, who is really weak, and kill all those bastards.”

It was a story about overexerting himself by wasting magical power again, and it was also a story about how he put a shield on Plantz, who was standing in front of the knights after acting at his best on the beach.

“It’s a difficult situation to go through on your birthday, but it’s true that you did what you did, so I think it’s your fault that you saw blood in front of me. Instead, it’s not your fault that you saw my blood, so don’t think about anything else and just wait.”

“okay.”

I see them moving little by little.

Calian grinned, facing the silence that would be broken as soon as someone stepped forward.

– Ugh!

Two daggers emerged with a threatening sound.

In the black and dark forest, a small blade glowed red like the eyes of a beast.

-Ssam!

– Kwasik!

Two red rays of light passed through the black forest. With a sound that was not at all pleasant, the two swordsmen plummeted to the floor.

It also signaled the beginning of a fight.

– Taaat!

As soon as they could see the dagger being made, the two people nearby fell dead and the swordsmen rushed at them all at once.

Even while looking at them, Kalian did not move.

Ignoring the black blood that had formed on the bandage and running down the hem of my clothes, I moved the dagger that had already flown away in place of my body.

The two daggers that cut off their lives changed direction. Two small blades containing Calian’s will and the magic of the wind pierce the hearts and throats of four more people.

And six.

Calian, who had been unconsciously trying to count the number of dead, closed his mouth.

– Thick!

Instead of thinking whether it was because of Plants standing next to him or the fishy scent that hit his throat, Calian just smiled. It was aimed at the two warriors holding red-hot swords who were standing motionless between the swordsmen.

– Ugh!

Fourteen prosecutors died. Calian did not move. The prosecutors stopped. Calian’s dagger did not stop.

In addition to the two daggers cutting through the air, another dagger appeared. And it split the air like lightning. Calian, forgetting the pain in his heart, kept his eyes fixed on the two warriors of the Great Desert and continued to move his dagger.

– Shhh!

– Kwasik!

The moment the swordsman was relieved to have struck down a dagger flashing in the dark, another blade flew from behind and pierced his heart. It was of no use to cover one’s body with strong muscles or to wear armor made of strong chains.

If you block the dagger, the sword will pierce through, and if you don’t block, your life will be cut off.

One of the swordsmen gave up on approaching and grabbed his bow.

An arrow left his hand and flew right in front of Planz.

– Scum!

– Kagagak!

Planz did not dodge, and the arrow hit the shield with a strong hitting sound and fell to the floor.

– Shhh!

As all three daggers change their trajectories in the direction from which they flew, a short scream rang out before long.

Calian’s head, which had taken away the guy who had fired the arrow, turned towards Plants for a moment.

“You trust me too much.”

“My brother told me to wait.”

Plantz, who didn’t even blink because he knew he would be blocked by the shield, continued his answer.

“… I have to wait. You’re taking care of it well.”

Calian let out a small laugh.

It’s not bad to hear that you’re not killing people, but saving people.

“yes.”

The dagger flew again.

The dagger that bounced from under his feet took the life of one person and flew into the throat of the next person. The dagger that fell from the top of his head was aimed at the heart of the person standing next to him. Before I even had time to step back from that sight, a dagger was flying right in front of my heart.

Just three daggers continued to create red waves in the darkness. As the blood pressure became thicker, their numbers steadily decreased.

But that’s it.

– Excited!

Calian, who didn’t even frown an eyebrow when the wound on his back was twisted as he jumped off Raven’s back, clenched his fists without realizing it. Because it was difficult to get used to the feeling of my heart being torn apart.

The three daggers lost their light for an instant and faded away.

I tried to infuse magic into the dagger once again, but the pain continued. The heart, pushed by the power of the blessing, refused to release its magic power.

– Thick!

Twenty-seven died. Five swordsmen and two warriors remain. I forgot. The shield in front of Plants disappeared as if erased.

Planz’s eyes sharpened, and a long line was drawn on Calian’s bright red lips.

“There is no shield. If something flies at you, avoid it.”

“…… okay.”

“You just have to wait a little longer.”

– Ugh!

Instead of a dagger, which was more difficult to make and use, I held only a more familiar sword in my hand. The red aura sways like a whirlwind and exudes anticipation.

“No matter what happens, I will take care of it and take care of you.”

In some ways, the voice seemed playful, but in other words, it sounded cool.

With all seven people in front and Plantz behind, he once again swallowed what was coming up from the depths. Calian’s feet finally moved.

– Jeopuk.

And then.

Discreet footsteps were heard next to Calian. Calian frowned, but the one who didn’t really care whether he did or not grabbed the sword.

A single, red-colored sword cuts through the dark forest.

There is one gray sword that swallows starlight. There is one blue-silver sword that contains starlight.

Three swords were held in the hands of the two men.

“no.”

And the pea that pulled out the knife continued to say that it did not listen to its younger brother.
