Chapter 57. Please (2)


    A blue star fell.


    “It’s been a while since I’ve seen you. Thest time I came to Secretia, it was a year when Serenti didn’t have time, so I couldn’t see her in the end.”


    “This is my first time seeing this. I’m speechless.”


    In addition to the words of Rachel and Euria, the sound of conversation between Kirie and A, and the faint scent of Sinastar, which was in full bloom again. Even though spring is in full swing, the chilly night breeze blends into one.


    Hina, sitting next to Jan, can also be seen moving her hands and smiling. I looked up for a moment to see the crazy blue-haired wizard running into the garden full of cynasta to catch Coco, who had slipped out of his arms, and then looked up.


    A truly blue star fell.


    I looked at all the words and sentences exined in the book, but I felt that there was not a single one that fully expressed what I was feeling.


    “I’ll go in first. The prince wille back with the sea breeze, so I need to prepare some bath water.”


    About thirty minutes had passed.


    Jan brought another cup of light green tea instead of the cold ck tea, looked at the people gathered, and went inside. After that, A stopped smelling the bitter scent of ck tea and after a while, Euria and Rachel, who had grown tired of the spicy scent of alcohol, dragged Arsene, Kirie, and Hina in. Now that we had seen enough, we decided to go in together, but ntz just shook his head.


    It makes me feel sad that I don’t know when or if I will ever be able to see Serenti’s slowdown in time again.


    So I sat alone for a little while longer.


    Before long, the light green tea had cooled to lukewarm.


    “If youe back, not next year, but the year after, you can see it again.”


    The sound of footsteps was heardter than the voice.


    Since he is used to walking around without making any noise, he intentionally makes noise and walks like that.


    nz, who watched the blue light fall on his pitch-ck hair and then disappear, nodded without hesitation and stood up. They say you can see it again, so wouldn’t it be a good idea toe back and see it then?


    “Don’t be alone. I’m not here Kairis.”


    “okay.”


    Instead of saying that I was with a lot of people just a moment ago, I just nodded once more. Then, for a moment, my eyesnded on something in Calian’s hand. It was a long, red box that was nicely packaged.


    “It’s Basilika. Brother Chase gave it to me.”


    A liquor that was fermented more than usual at a brewery during an unusually hot year. Thanks to you, I managed to make nine bottles of Basilica by discarding most of them.


    When the basilica waspleted, its exceptionally strong aroma and soft taste were truly one of a kind. Other basilicas made by fermenting at simr temperatures did not taste like that at all. Thanks to this, the Basilica made at that brewery that year was treated as more precious than jewelry and was sold all over the ce.


    Until recently, only two bottles of Basilica remained on the continent, having disappeared from the hearts of lovers of a bottle or two. One of the bottles was in n’s house, and Arsene drank it right away. Arsene, who doesn’t know much about alcohol, still doesn’t know that n almost threw the me Spear that day.


    anyway. Thanks to that, there is only one bottle of alcohol left.


    Chase gave Calian the Basilica that was left in Den’s wine cer, which is no longer in the world.


    “I guess it’s a birthday present.”


    Calian, who had brought it with excitement at the thought of drinking it with n, looked a little surprised.


    “Yes, that’s right.”


    In fact, the gift was not this alcohol, but the beach far below. I received it again. Of course, since he was the prince of Kairis, it did not mean that he handed over ownership of thend, but this time, Chase gifted the sea again.


    If you think about it, Chase is a really boring person. It’s like giving back what was already given.


    “When have I ever told you this?”


    “There was.”


    ntz raised his head and looked at the blue light that was stilling down.


    – Blue stars are falling.


    Last summer, after attending a banquet celebrating Kalian’s birthday, Kalian said that to ntz.


    that day. The main character of the celebration was Kalian and the host was Lemain. And everyone else there had been invited. So that day, Kalyan was the only guest who visited the ce uninvited.


    He looked like he had gone to a ce he wasn’t invited to and returned with congrattions that weren’t directed at him. I won’t make that face this summer, but I didst year. And we talked. It is said that there are days when blue stars fall in Secretia.


    – Sometimes ites and sometimes it doesn’t, so sometimes I get congrattions and sometimes I don’t. It was like that.


    I feel sorry for Kalyan.


    The sadness of remembering a forgotten person.


    He said such a thing without even being able to hide hisplex thoughts, which even nts could not fully notice. As if he wanted people to know that there was someone else who needed to be congratted that day and that it was not that day that he should be congratted on.


    So ntz also knew.


    February 30th. A day not even written on the calendar. ‘Kalian’ was born in the spring of Secretia, not the summer of Kairis.


    “I said something useless. I.”


    “Why is that?”


    Calianughed without saying another word.


    And when he points towards the vi as if to tell me to just go inside.


    Suddenly.


    Something was thrust right in front of Calian’s eyes. For a moment, Calian, who almost hit it without realizing it, looked at ntz.


    “Why are you giving this back?”


    “I’m not giving it back, I’m giving it.”


    “I gave it to you.”


    “What is that?”


    “… No. But why are you ‘giving’ it?”


    It was a modified version.


    It was an item that Calian gave ntz as a birthday present to encourage him to think about returning home while looking at the cats.


    “The one in Kairis was sent to my younger brother.”


    Now, after watching the coronation ceremony, I’ll go back to Kairis, and if that happens, Calian won’t be able to see Chase, just like ntz won’t be able to see the cats.


    “Just watch and live.”


    It was a birthday present for ntz.


    ntz held the crystal te in front of Calian’s eyes once more, as if telling him to receive it quickly. Calian suddenly took it and opened his mouth.


    “Brother, I am so happy that you are growing up so well.”


    “Don’t bother barking.”


    Calian grinned.


    He gave me a gift on my birthdayst year, and I got it again this time. Chase, who gave me another gift I already gave him, and ntz, who gave me back a gift, both felt like they were trying to turn the gift around, but I epted it anyway.


    “Did you get a gift for Brother Randel? It’s been two months since Brother Randel’s birthday.”


    “You didn’t either.”


    “I sent it to you, Master. Although I don’t think you’ve even opened it yet.”


    I know that it would be the best gift for Randel to drop the crown jewel before going to Kairis. So nz, who had no intention of leaving, walked hurriedly into the vi.


    Calian, who had sent a set of high-quality garden tree trimming scissors that Randel would have been unable to avoid without touching it if he had opened it, followed behind ntz.


    “Shouldn’t you send a gift? Even now.”


    “no.”


    “You should get along well. My brother and I are all grown up now.”


    “If you look like that, could you please tell me the meaning of my name?”


    “Ah. You’re too young to tell me that.”


    “My older brother keeps barking.”


    “I’ll use it well. It’s a gift.”


    “…… okay.”


    “After the coronation ceremony, let’s go eat codfish. I’ll buy it for you.”


    “okay.”


    Before I knew it, the stars stopped falling.


    Instead of blue light, a pure white star appears again, and a silver moon illuminates the garden full of synastars.


    “While you’re eating cod, you’re also buying a gift for Brother Randel.”


    “Stop.”


    “yes.”


    A day passes by that sparkles more than any other day.


    Blue light rises toward the sky between white flowers. It was the light of Sinastar that followed after the time of Serenti.


    * * *


    As I was buttoning my shirt, I turned my head and saw that Jan was crying.


    “I said it’s okay.”


    “Still. It gets on my nerves every time I see it.”


    It’s already been more than two months since we started crying and making a fuss, asking who did this to our flower-like prince’s back. Nevertheless, he still makes the same face every time he changes clothes.


    It is said that it was Han who killed that guy gracefully.


    He said something scary, asking if they should have just saved him and sent him to Siegfried.


    “Will I always be like that until I grow old and die?”


    “Yes. It will be like this. It will be like this every time the prince changes his clothes.”


    “Even if it’s because I’m scared of you, I shouldn’t increase it any further.”


    “So, please be careful. If the prince’s scars increase again, I will quit my job.”


    He says something scary again.


    This means that he will call all the elephants and seek revenge until the Seneu River dries up and wears out.


    “Okay, okay. I’ll be careful.”


    In the end, Calianughed and pointed at the jacket. Yan nodded and opened his mouth, helping me put my arms into my jacket sleeves.


    “Indeed, Relic arrived just in time.”


    “I’m d.”


    Meanwhile, he grew taller again.


    They were both tall.


    It was fine as the other clothes could be refitted here, but the problem was the uniforms the prince and crown prince had to wear today. Thanks to this, Relic, who had been following the cats and baby elephant, returned to Kairis for a while.


    The crown prince’s livery was madeter, with much more embroidery and decoration than the prince’s livery for Kalyan. So Reric came here briefly yesterday, left the conquest of Calian first, and then returned again, arriving early this morning.


    “Master must havee too, then.”


    “Today, there is an event at the Kairis Pce. So I just watched the prince sleep for a moment and then went back. They told me not to wake him up.”


    After bing the continent’s strongest wizard, n seems to have somehow be the continent’s best express transportation manager. We carry people and cats from ce to ce, and now we are even carrying clothes.


    “Now that I think about it, today is the day to spread fish food in the Seneu River.”


    “Yes. It’s the first day of March.”


    Unlike Secreta, where spring has already arrived a long time ago, in Kairisis, which is still cold, it is not until this time of year that the Senu River melts. There were times when there was ice here and there without itpletely melting, but usually around this time, the sound of water flowing was heard again.


    It was a day to celebrate a sessful winter and wee a new year with an event to feed fish that would otherwise not be able to find food under the frozen river. Since it was LeMaine’s day to go out, n would have had to look after the escort.


    Kalian, who was good at using a knife, smiled slightly at the thought of his father, who came over and looked at his face without anyone noticing.


    “I’ll be back soon. You can see me then.”


    “Yes. Don’t be too disappointed.”


    “OK got it.”


    The person who needed to stand out today was Chase, not Calian. That’s why I didn’t wear any essories that were too eye-catching. The prince’s uniform consisted of a ck vest, jacket, and ck pants, and he wore a red cloak with ck fur trim on one shoulder. The winter uniform was minus the coat.


    There was no need to wear winter uniform, but the frail and green crown prince still felt cold. I have no idea how he was still alive in Kairis. Anyway, since nz wore a winter uniform and Calian couldn’t wear anything else, it was decided to wear it like this.


    After Jan, who reced Merlin, who was not here, did a final inspection and even sprayed a few perfumes with a faint tangerine scent, preparations werepleted. And went out.


    “I prepared it because I thought you would ride in the Raven rather than the carriage.”


    “That’s right. Thank you.”


    At the end of my answering gaze, I saw a carriage with the Kairis royal emblem engraved on it. I couldn’t ride the carriage that was so luxurious today either. The person who would use that carriage today was not Calian.


    ntz was standing outside the carriage, wearing a dark navy blue jacket simr to Calian’s but with more patterns embroidered with gold thread, ck trousers, and a ck cloak with navy blue fur trim. And sitting in the carriage was pretty Hina, wearing a beautiful turquoise dress full of whitece and a tiara that sparkled the same way.


    After ntz entered the carriage after Hina, Kalyan, who tried to calm down the fact that our Hina was so pretty but was noisy on the inside, got on top of Raven.


    – p!


    The thick cloak swells for a moment and then sinks.


    It wasn’t long before we started doing various things.


    A carriage pulled by six horses and the prince riding on a ck horse set off for the Secretia royal pce.


    * * *


    Temple of Serenti.


    Like Tensil, there is, of course, a temple of Serenti in Secretia. There was also a priest. It’s just that I didn’t use my healing power in an abnormal way, but I didn’t abandon my faith in Serenti.


    The coronation ceremony begins at the temple.


    Originally, a ceremony was held to receive all eight sacred relics, but this has been gradually simplified, and now only the ceremony to receive the orb, scepter, and crown is performed in order. That alone took a considerable amount of time, and after that, they had to march to the square, make a deration in front of the square, and then return to the royal pce. After receiving greetings from the nobles in the throne room, the ceremony of storing the orb, scepter, sword, and crown is performed again. Only after the coronation ceremony was over did the celebration continue.


    – Multi-faceted, multi-faceted.


    Instead of the carriage with its curtains tightly drawn, many eyes were focused on Calian, who had his back straight, his head not lowered at all, and his red eyes slightly lowered. It was the gaze of the crowd who were not invited to the temple. The royal carriage of Calian and Kairis, without paying any attention to anyone else, slowly passed between them. That’s how we arrived at the temple.


    When the carriage door opened, nts, who checked his clothes onest time, came out first, followed by Hina. Behind Calian, Yan and Kyrie stood with their arms around ntz, and behind Hina, Relic and Arsene stood. The rest of the people, excluding the fiancé and those who served as attendants and guards, were only invited to the celebration and would meet at the pceter.


    Kairis’ guests, guided by the temple’s guides and knights, were seated in the VIP section. Calian gave a quick nce at Louise and Arianne in the distance and sat down.


    Since Kalian’s group arrived almostst, the eyes of the visitors who had already gathered turned to Kalian once again. He saw a mixture of fear and admiration in the eyes of those who still remembered the sight of him throwing the sword into Den’s heart, but Calian did not show much.


    – Deeng Deeng Deeng…….


    The door of the temple was closed.


    The deep ringing sound of the bell signaled the beginning of the coronation ceremony in which the king of a country was officially crowned.


    Everyone sits down and closes their mouths.


    The high priest came forward first and recited a prayer praying that Serenti’s blessings would rest on Secretia forever.


    – Deeng……


    And then another bell rang.


    Chase walked out in front of the closed door in the distance.


    The pure white cloak embroidered with red thread, symbolizing Serenti, sparkles in the sunlighting in from the temple window. Every time I take a step on the red cloth, I can hear the sound of the long cloak grazing the floor. The white pants and red jacket were embroidered with gold thread. Gold chains and tassels sway with every step.


    Calian, who was watching Chase walking out as if cutting through the sunlight, closed his eyes for a moment.


    second.


    This was the second time I saw that.


    When I received the orb, received the scepter, and realized that it was the ruby that decorated the treasured sword, I held my breath for a moment.


    – Deeng deeng…….


    Two bells ring.


    Chase knelt down on one knee in front of the High Priest.


    The high priest took the cloth from the hand of the person carrying arge box wrapped in velvet. A gorgeous crown appeared.


    Diamond. and.


    It’s so out of ce.


    A pale amethyst was embedded in the very center of the crown.


    Calian closed his eyes once again.


    – Deeng Deeng…… Deeng……


    Three bells ring.


    Chase stood up.


    I put on my crown and turned around.


    I became a real king and looked around at everyone gathered here.


    – Thank you foring. Crown Prince nz.


    ntz frowned as he heard Chase’s voice ringing in his head. I realized it wasn’t a thank you. If I had known this would happen, I would have given the crystal version and not taken the ring away.


    – congrats. give.


    As a harsh voice sounded in his head, Chase looked at Calian with a mischievous smile that could not be seen. I looked at him like that for a while and then nodded slightly.


    Chase’s feet move again.


    Outside the temple, into the square, where there are people.


    Calian’s eyes, which had been quietly looking at it, looked somewhere else for a moment. And then it stopped.


    ‘…Tensil.’


    Tensil royal pattern, royal attire.


    Tensil’s distinguished guest who came to this ce, which is no different from an enemy country.


    An unknown smile appeared on Calian’s face.


    The crown prince of Tensil was there.
