Chapter: 768

“I want to go on a picnic!”

The word ‘picnic’ seemed to make Theor feel better.

“It must be fun to go to the forest too.”

Kaizen smiled and put Theor down.

“Don’t worry. Soon there will be a harvest festival. I will take you to a hunting competition. It will be held in the forest next to the capital, so you can run around in the forest to your heart’s content.”

Astelle, who had been listening to their conversation, asked in surprise. “Your Majesty, are you really going to a hunting competition?”

“As I told you before.”

He once said something like that, but she thought it was a joke.

While listening to the conversation between the two, Theor grabbed Kaizen’s hem.

“Are you hunting at the festival?”

“Yeah. I will get a great game.”

Kaizen said confidently, stroking Theor’s head.

He seems sure he will win.

……of course, he will.

‘I guess it’s better to stop him.’

Hunting competitions are held in the forest.

Entering the forest makes it difficult for knights to protect the emperor. It can be a little dangerous.

Astelle pondered for a moment, then stepped forward to stop him.

But suddenly, Theor loosened his grip on Kaizen’s hem and took a step back.

“I don’t like hunting.”

“What?”

Theor looked at Kaizen as expressionless as a doll.

His bright eyes, which had shone brightly, darkened.

As if he were looking at a cruel hunter.

“……the bear is dead.”
