Acumetsu traveled to the King's Capital.

This time there is also a period of stay in the Wang capital, which is why I plan to return quite late - so, rather, it is an affair I am in a better mood after my husband travels, and the first two days were quite intense.

"Hey Halagree, hunting, but what about the Blue Lake Forest in the south?

And when the affair was over and we were having a neat and good word, she had made such a suggestion.

"Hmm, certainly there are no dangerous demons there. There are few beasts, and at this time you can scatter deer after wild birds and rabbits. It might be a good first hunt."

"... Of course it's important for him to hunt, but more important things are missing."

She says as she scratches up Brown's hair as she gets stuck in the halibut.

And what? and although it was a halagree that brought a question mark to my head.

"At all, I don't know if you're good or missing. Oh, that's cute."

"Or don't make fun of me -"

It is a halagree that seems to illuminate.

"So, that's the answer, but it's a lake. It's about Blue Lake. There's a beautiful lake in the woods."

"Oh, speaking of which, you did have a lake in those woods."

"That's right. Hey, don't you think it's nice? I haven't had a water bath in nature in a long time, too, and that's why we're together, right?

"Yes, together..."

"Yes, and after that, of course, in the sun, heh heh"

"Ha, in the sun -"

In the end when I dream about that, I get better again, and although I'm a hallucinogen trying to cover up another round of hard work.

"No more, not tonight. Until hunting day, oh, no."

"Nah!? Ho, are you serious?

"I mean it. 'Cause it burns better, doesn't it? So make sure you have a good schedule."

"Ugh, um. But even though there's something about Akdork-sama's hunt, will you have time..."

"What are you talking about? You're taking the knight with you, aren't you? Then you can leave the hunting to them."

"Uh-huh."

"Besides, I have to deal with your son."

It is a good yet again grumpy affair, but it seems unwilling to make it to the end as declared, so it is a halagree that remains murky all the time.

And let it take precedence over everything from the next day on, and Halagree set a date for Akdork's hunt.

He also elected three knights to follow him. One is a bow famous man who would be able to coach a bow instead of a halagree.

The other two are also, one is a small female knight who boasts the appearance of the Knights of Luphall I and vice versa, a shallow black knight who boasts of the Knights I giant.

The bowman in particular is sensitive to the signs and can respond immediately when something happens.

Especially in an extremely peaceful forest where there are no demons. To be honest, I almost feel there may be as many as three, but that's the escort of the future lord, just in case you can't go wrong.

Thus - on the fourth day after Acumetsu's departure, he was to leave the castle for the first hunt of Acdorc.

That said, it's about two hours walk to the woods. Of course, Akdork and Affair use horses and some luggage, so Halagrai and knights also serve as substitutes for horses.

Of course there is a hand to prepare a horse's side, but I dared to reduce the number of people because of the slight impossibility that the distance would also be short and would lead to foot and hip workouts.

Of course it was because there was a desire to reduce the extra intrusion as much as possible.

And the journey was quite relaxing without any particular problems such as this.

We arrived in the woods with a little chat, then we unpacked in front of a lake near the center and connected the horses.

"And it's a beautiful lake - it makes me want to take a bath"

Redhead knight Reese Crito said with her eyes sparkling.

She is still young, and there is some place left of her infancy. He seems to be adored among the knights for that reason. Bright and ready to break with anyone personality or an adorable face may be the reason why it's so popular.

"Come on, it's not like I'm here to see you. At all, Reese is as young as ever."

Don Fan, the long-bodied man with the bow, said as if he was frightened. It has blonde hair that hides one eye and is quite sturdy.

The man who is the highest profile of a woman among the Knights of the Castle, and who also feels quite thin there, is undoubtedly the top of the Knights when it comes to bow arms.

"... ready, done"

And it was the giant Malagar Big, especially in this one, who was silently working on unloading and stuff. Honestly, no monster worries, no less dangerous woods, he was dressed in the usual heavy, obscure armor.

Considering that the other two are made up of light armor that is relatively easy to move around, it may seem a little out of place, but even as a knight, I often have a serious personality.

And Akdork, who is the star (nominally) of this one, sleeves through the hunting clothes that he has decorated for this one.

A sturdy, long-sleeved fabric that won't be damaged by branches or anything like moving around the woods, this dish also combines aristocratic elegance that doesn't look wild.

Sturdy, but also confined to suppleness to avoid inhibiting movement to the maximum, the chest and shoulders are also well decorated with family crests.

Shoes, of course, are a material that won't hurt if you walk around for long periods of time, making them soft and light.

As for the bow, it is a wooden bow and arrow, but the shaft is covered in iron and increases its killing power.

I don't mind being a demon or a beast opponent, but it's too much of a substitute for targeting small animals and deer around here.

Above all, it is easy to handle for beginners.

And Halagray calls the three knights, and tells them their roles.

"Huh? Your son has us? Will Master and Mrs. Halagree remain here?

"Um, actually, I promised my wife I'd take care of the fishing. See, you're right. We have the tools for that."

That's how Halagree showed him the fishing rod he brought with him.

"Besides, when it comes to hunting, you should have a don who can actually handle bows, and there's no way there's more to being a single escort than to travel through the woods"

"But isn't that what makes your wife the only form Master Halagrai sees?

"Sure, but we're not on the outside from this lake. It's like luggage time. The danger is still different from that of the Luphole son who will be moving around. Of course it's a safe forest, but it's probably the best way to do it than to be here hunting."

Halagrai intended to explain as unnatural as possible.

But, heh, I'm a little nervous about Don holding his jaw and watching as he explores.

"That, what. Besides, me and the guy I used to be knights. For example, I know enough to get rid of pigs if they show up."

"... Phew, that's right. It's true that this forest is not that dangerous in the first place, and if you have as many halagrees as Yingjie once did, you will never be more reliable."

Apparently, you convinced me that it's a reassuring halagree. It's not something I've ever had any worse feelings about.

"Eh, but that's a little too bad. I wanted to go hunting with Master Halagree - I knew I wanted to."

But here's Reese throwing in some natural explosion magic. Besides, he has approached me to the front of the halibut and looked me in the eye somewhere mesmerizing.

Plus it was a bit of a glitch - and at the same time he was afraid of the piercing gaze felt from behind.

"So we hunt in the woods, your mother hunts in the lake, right? Got it! You can't beat your mother."

"Oh, my God, now you're telling me."

"Ha, ha, be gentle"

For some reason it was a halagree to drop off with a slightly stiff smile, and then again later, the knights took Akdork into the woods.

So I finally got to hang out with Affair.

"After all, do you prefer your younger daughter?

It is a halibut to the Affair who says such things in the eyes of Zito.

"Come on, are you jealous about that?

"Jealousy? Me? Don't be silly."

Halagree rushed over to the fair, where he showed his back and walked in a grumpy mood.

"Will you fix your mood, Affair? I'm sure she's just joking, and I don't care."

"Is that true? It seemed to stretch under your nose for a long time, though?

"No way, and that kid's not as big as you. I prefer women with big breasts."

"So you're going to follow me?

She picked up the fishing rod and drooled the fishing line in the lake.

"... and what are you doing?

"Fishing. I promised that kid, and you wouldn't be here to do anything else, would you?

That's it. Affair to shut your mouth once. I scratched the back of my head and watched it for a while.

"Give me a break already! This is a snake's life, then. You're the only one I love, Affair. I swear to God, you're tens of thousands of times more attractive than that girl."

…………

Affair then put the fishing rod down and jumped into the lake, taking off his dress and looking like he was still born.

"Phew, the water feels good, Halagree."

Yet it floats on the water and shows off without extra limbs of its own.

While acknowledging and sighing that he had no choice at all, Halagree also took everything off and jumped into the lake.

And then after that, in the lake, and once we get out, it's a good time to enjoy the halibut.

"Master Luphall, please calm down and concentrate your consciousness."

"Oh, I know."

While that was good, Akdork had set his aim on the field rabbit. He is a healthy child whose fingers shudder with pulls on his first hunt, but who manages to succeed in the hunt and wants to please both his mother and father.

But - the arrow, which cut the wind humbly, pierced the ground slightly beside the target.

The wild rabbit who notices it rushes off the spot.

"Oh, I couldn't do it again..."

"Don't be so depressed. Nobody's going to make it from the start. Besides, it's getting a lot better aim, so I'm sure you'll succeed soon."

Don told me to encourage it. That said, I'm not just saying it with a stomach full, and Akdork's aim was certainly getting better.

He seems to be a clever kid, his first practice and there seemed to be tension at first, but he is making and improving modifications with his own hands a little bit.

"Yeah, that was a shame from me. If this happens, we're gonna go after the big guy next?

"No, whatever it takes. That's too much talk. You're not serious enough at all."

A smile spilled out of Akdork watching the exchange. It is Don who reassures me that this will not even drag the failure later.

I might say that you were right that a lease that could change the air has accompanied you in that sense.

"... this way"

Then a sparsely spoken malagar invited everyone. What the hell is that? and approaching don, but admit it from the shadow of a tree. Tell Akdork to approach softly.

"Wow."

Then Akdork, peering in from the shadows of the trees, dived into his voice and was surprised.

There the deer were devouring the sesame grass in an excellent way, both in distance and position.

I'm totally focused on bait and I haven't noticed this one.

"Yes, in that position. Go for it."

"Yeah -"

Don will coach you and sharpen your aim. Keeping an arrow, he puts his finger on the string and squeezes it tight.

And now it's time! and put strong thoughts on the arrow, and punch them in.

Without precipitation, the arrow went straight ahead, cutting the wind and hitting sharply on the calf's neck.

He made a thin squeal and tried to escape in a flimsy foothold, but ended up not moving completely after he didn't hold it, tipping and cramping.

"We did it, Master Luphall!

"Ugh, yeah!

Joyfully brave, Akdork approached the deer who also laid him. I seem to have learned some heartache from the first time I took my life, but soon I smile and thank Don for winning the exhilaration that I ended up with my own hands.

"No, I'm not making a big deal out of it. Thanks to you."

After telling him so, he looks at Akdork in an excited state with a smile, while confirming the dead deer.

That was, without a doubt, a loss of life, and later enough prey to be universal enough as food if it was bled out and dismantled.

Don thinks it would be enough if this was tailored in his first hunt. I even thought you were lucky.

"... wait, something, I'm here -"

Secondly, Don mentioned it as whispering.

Huh? Could it be another prey? and Akdork to round your eyes, but Shh! and he put his index finger up.

It was a pretty serious look, and the smile disappeared from the lease that was watching it, too, before Malagar became Akdork's shield.

"Reese......"

"Yeah, I know"

And then Reese moves forward softly and cautiously to Don's finger.

It was something I noticed because Don is acquiring the ability to perceive signs. But I can't grasp the details of who I'm lurking with. It just means there's something there.

That said, I can feel the atmosphere I'm after this one.

There shouldn't be any demons in this forest by nature, but if it was goblins, it often meant that they would have bred at some point if they had noticed.

Especially if it's about goblins.

And then Reese stepped in his leg.

"... Huh?

It was over and Affair slept easily with Halagree's arm on his pillow. I had a thin sheet in my luggage for once, so I hang it from the top.

She is a halibut who thinks that she is as fierce as a carnivore, and that her sleeping face is cute.

That said, it's time to wake him up. I know it's still early to come back, but if you don't get dressed enough, there's no excuse when something happens.

"Affair, it's time to wake up and get dressed. If they find us, it's a lot of things."

"Uh-huh, I was enjoying the corner finish."

What's the aftertaste? and the cheeks turn red. I find it difficult to make fun of him a little like this, but at the same time I find him adorable.

While I was thinking about it, I was smiling and watching Affair. Halagree, but at that time the grass shook with the noise of gassagoso.

And, no! It is a haragrai to dwell on. There is also a feeling of impatience that it was a little far-fetched.

I didn't know you'd be back so soon - the Affair is sipping on you too.

In the meantime, Halagree tries to hide her with her sheets on, but honestly, it's only an evil retribution.

But...

"This surprised me. I didn't know you were having fun here."

So it was these people who showed up like they'd never seen them at all.

The only thing I could say was that they were never favored.

Because one of the groups had captured Akdork, tied him with a rope so that he could not move, and poked the tip of a song knife at his neck.

I mean, Akdork is totally taken hostage.

"Oh, Mother!

"Huh? That's such an Akdork! No, why, why!

"Hey! Affair, calm down!

And as soon as I saw that loving son, Affair was about to jump forward, disturbed and also forgetting to hide his body with sheets.

But that halagree desperately stops, picks up the sheets and hangs them on his shoulders.

But at some point the men dressed to surround the two looked down with a humble grin.

"Hehe, they showed me something good inside again. It's a big day for kids to watch."

A man says, tapping his shoulder with a very long, curved sword. I guess this guy is the leader around talking about representing him in the group.

The weapon in hand is a sword called Falcata, which is about two-thirds of the total length and seems to be a medium sharp substitute such as a blade.

The handles are often in the shape of some animal, and the prey of a man is in the form of a wolf.

Most of all, the characteristic is that these people are all beasts. Leader-style men have wolf ears and tails, beasts, and other fox types, bears, and monkeys.

There is no question that these people are bandits from the point of view of Halagray, but it is nevertheless quite rare in the kingdom that they are all beasts.

"Ki, what the hell is your purpose? Besides, there must have been a knight of escort on his side. What's wrong with that?

"Oh, your fellow knights are over there in the middle of nowhere for now. But knights are surprisingly simple. It would have been easier if I'd gotten into a simple trap and taken a lovely knight hostage, huh?

"... the outer roads"

When Halagray says to throw it away, Guerraggera and the bandits laugh.

"Hey, before you say anything about us, what about you guys? Doesn't look like a healthy relationship, does it?

"Oh, that's..."

Unexpectedly mouth-watering halagree. But if they do say so, it will be difficult to have a healthy relationship.

"Hmm, okay. Like what we're here for. That's easy. In the meantime, I'll take that woman too."

"Don't be ridiculous!

Though I am unexpectedly outraged by the leader style beast man who points and declares his finger.

"Ha, even if they say so. You're a little too blunt, aren't you?

"What? Gaha!?"

He doesn't understand what the man is saying, but shortly afterwards, a strong shock to the head.

And only for a moment my vision stained bright white, and the ground was imminent in front of me regardless of my will.

"Dude, you don't even notice a surprise attack of this magnitude, or this guy's a good spot, huh?

And he managed to turn his face to the side, and beyond that he raised his gaze, the monkey beast man wielding a small leather bag and peeking in to make a fool of himself.

Due to the uneven shape of the bag, it is expected that there are stones inside.

And that alone can be enough of a weapon if you accidentally target them.

"No! Halagree! Halagree! Hey, what are you doing! Let go! Who do you think I am?

"Come on? I just saw you. You're just a slut."

"Heh, little one. Hey, boss, I don't have any more patience with this woman's body, okay?

"What, you guys, can't stand it until I take you home? I don't have a choice. But, well, do you have this too? Hey, get his face up."

"Hey, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. Burn it in those eyes!

And Halagrai was forced to look up by a monkey beast man grabbing his hair.

On the front is Affair, surrounded by both guesses, and the figure of Akdork, who continues desperately to call his mother's name.

Halagree screams desperately, too, but when he is obnoxious, he gets stuffed in the mouth, and the woman he loves is made a mockery of them - crying and still showing off the sight of being humiliated as long as he never stops.

"Okay, this one (...) will be enough. I don't think I can spend much time on this."

"Boss, will you kill this guy? He's already got some dead eyes."

"Whoa, don't be stupid. He still has things to do. So..."

And the man with the head stood in front of the halibut, and waved something down toward the halibut that looked like sudden self-loss.

"Sleep tight for a while. And when you wake up, take a good look at the tree in the front."

And finally, Halagree let go of that consciousness this time -
