The Crown Prince Who Raises a Side Character

Riding was a privilege of the wealthy.

Horses were creatures that drained an immense amount of money, both in purchasing and upkeep. Unless one was exceptionally wealthy, the costs were simply unsustainable.

For successful adventurers, it wasn’t entirely impossible to afford a horse, but honestly, very few adventurers actually owned one.

While useful for long-distance travel, horses often became a hindrance in battle. Moreover, since adventuring was fundamentally a team effort, maintaining mobility meant that the entire party needed horses.

If one had that kind of money, why waste it on a horse instead of rare equipment, potions, or magic tomes?

In other words—

Blanca had never ridden a horse in her entire life.

No, she had never even experienced moving ‘faster’ than a person running.

“Kyah! Kyahhhhh!”

“If you keep your mouth open like that, you might end up biting your tongue.”

Then stop and let me down, you lunatic!!

Blanca wanted to scream that at him, but she didn’t have the capacity to do so.
