Chapter 301: The Fox’s Interrogation Mission
"Awa-awa, awawa—!"
"Rocco, calm down. There’s no need to scurry around like that. And stop circling me—you’re too cute, and it makes me want to just scoop you up and capture you."
Rocco never could have anticipated the crown prince suddenly showing up in the middle of his peaceful snack time.
On top of that, Laxus had just made a wildly reckless remark.
Overwhelmed by confusion, the terrifying possibility of Laxus being executed for rebellion, and a flurry of other anxieties, Rocco panicked, flailing around in a frenzy.
With both arms raised high, he ran circles around Laxus at full speed.

A one-man barricade? A personal security perimeter? Something like that.
As long as he kept circling, no one could lay a hand on Laxus—pure genius! He even impressed himself.
"Awawa—! Wah! Auwah!?"
