Chapter 19: Hunting competition (1)
It was time for the hunting competition to start, so everyone was excited but the Emperor sat leisurely with a joyful smile as if he was simply gonna watch a mundane competition.
Originally, I heard that he was very active in hunting competitions, but why is he not participating this time?
Hmm, I really don't know...
Before the start of the hunting competition, Lobelia said to everyone.
"It is a very nice day. The day is sunny but not too hot, so it is a very suitable day for hunting competition.
"For the sake of the princesses you serve, and for the sake of the lord, or for your family... ...The reasons may be different, but there is one common purpose for all of you who are standing here now. Championship.
"This hunting competition may be a bit difficult. Besides simply catching a lot of animals for high scores, or trying to catch a single animal with a high score can be quite dangerous.
"Of course, for safety reasons, I released them in a fairly deep place in the hunting ground... ...But please be careful. If you do something dangerous for high scores, a normal person could lose their life here."
Some of the nobles were nervous at Lobelia's words. It could have been that they were intimidated by the word dangerous, or they could have been estimating their reputation that would rise if they hunted a dangerous one.
"But you are the noble warriors of this mighty Enadeims. I believe that such threats can be easily overcome. In this hunting competition, which also includes quite a few knights, I hope you will show off your skills to the fullest. Good luck."
As soon as Lobelia's words were finished, the sharp howling of hounds was heard, and the hunting competition began.
"Are you going?"
