“Now, there are two ways to beat Dogeu.”
“Why is it that Prince Leon is in charge?”
When we decided to form a party, Leon held up two fingers and began to explain.
“Let’s hear him for a moment.“
“The first way is to hunt and kill more than they do.”
“…..That’s a very straightforward approach.”
Laura gives me a scornful look. Maybe it’s because she knows him, but she is more expressive than she is with me.
“The other way is to not let him hunt his prey.”
“What exactly are you going to do?”
Leon happily smiled when I asked him what he was going to do.
“The bow he’s using is Sylphid, and thanks to the wind spirit embedded in it, so the arrows that he shoots are going to hit the prey without fail.”
I’m pretty sure he was bragging about his bow, but that’s how it worked…..
“It doesn’t matter if it’s me or Elt, we can command the wind spirit that resides in his bow to temporarily stop lending him power. That way, he won’t be able to easily aim at his prey with his skills.”
As if he didn’t like Dogeu, Leon happily suggested.
“What shall we do? Elt-sama.”
Laura waited for my reply, as if she was convinced by Leon’s explanation.
“First of all, I can’t command the wind spirits because the spirit I’m under contract with is far away.”
Marie is attending a tea party right now and eating delicious food. I could call her back, but she seems to be looking forward to it, so that would be a pity.
“Then I could do that, so what do you want to do?”
I put my hand on my chin and thought about the options Leon had presented.
“The nature of this bet, if we lose, Alice will have to deal with him.”
Cutting the bow’s powers alone would not ensure victory.
“So I’m thinking of going with both.”
“”Both?””
I told Leon and Laura about the strategy I was thinking of.

“Damn it! You haven’t reported any prey found since a while ago! What the hell is going on?!”
Prince Dogeu was annoyed and lashed out at his cronies.
“W, well, that’s the thing….No matter how hard we looked, we couldn’t find any prey……There are traces of them nearby, but…..”
There were signs of disturbed plants, so there was no doubt that creatures were in the area.
“Th, there’s a wild boar over there!”
“Finally!”
A crony spots a moving wild boar over a hundred metres away.
“From here, it’s hit-or-miss.”
Prince Dogeu took his arrow and released it with a powerful pull.
“”Wh!?””
The arrow, which had previously flown straight through the prey, flew in the other direction and disappeared into the grass.
“Prince, the wild boar is fleeing!”
The wild boar, perhaps having noticed their presence, moved away quickly.
“Damn it! What’s going on?!”
He looked at his bow in disgust.
“Now you go and look for the prey!”
Prince Dogeu shouted at his cronies.
★
“Well, I guess we don’t need to see the results.”
Hunting time was over and we were heading back to base.
The hunted prey is piled up in the group’s respective camp.
There were dozens of prey piling up in the camp of me, Leon and Laura, but Prince Dogeu seemed to have haunted only a few.
“It looks like we’ve won the bet now.”
“Guguguguu!”
Prince Dogeu glares at Laura’s words, his face turning red.
“So, you said that if we lose, the Princess of Irkutu will accompany you, what will you do for us then?”
Laura gives him a cold look.
“You’re not going to do whatever you want to a princess of a country, and not even think about the price you could pay, right?”
“……Gugugugu, what do you want?”
To Prince Dogue’s chagrin, Laura takes a set of equipment as well as a concession in a trade between countries as a settlement for the bet.
“Then again, you’re the one who thinks up the crazy stuff….”
On the way back after putting Dogeu away, Leon spoke to me with his arms folded behind his head.
“We’ll let Laura search for the nearby prey and keep them away, and then we’ll snatch any pray Dogeu might target.”
This was the winning strategy that I had proposed.
Leon said he could control the wind spirits, so I had him correct the trajectory of the arrow to kill the prey.
That way, Dogeu would not be able to hunt anything, and our victory would be assured.
It was a method that only became a reality because we were superior in individual strength.
“It was a good thing that we won, Laura. From now on, don’t make these kinds of bets.”
Back at the castle, on the way to my room, I stopped Laura.
“No matter what, betting Alice’s…..body without permission is too much.”
I shuddered just thinking about Alice being in the clutches of Prince Dogeu.
“Ah, if it’s about that bet, it wasn’t Princess Alice, but….”
Laura was about to say something.
“Ara, welcome back. Laura, you’re dressed in a very unusual way.”
Alice, whom I had just mentioned, walked by.
She was attending a tea party and was wearing a dress and make up.
“How are you doing, Elt-kun? Did Laura cause you any trouble?”
I was at a loss of words when she asked me this question. Because just before, I was asking a question related to this.
“I didn’t bother him.”
In the meantime, Laura was talking to Alice. While I was listening to the conversation…..
“You’re the one who needs to get a grip.”
“Onee-sama!?”
At my shout, they both turned to look at me.
Light pink hair and amethyst eyes. Although their expressions are different, they both have well-rounded faces that are….similar….
“Didn’t I tell you? That Laura is my sister?”
“That’s right, I am Laura, the second princess of the Irkutu Kingdom.”
It reminded me of the exchange that we just had. I realised that Laura had not intended to sacrifice Alice from the beginning, but had made herself the object of the bet.
“What’s the matter, Elt-kun?”
I covered my face with my hands, feeling tiredness washing over me……
“No, it’s nothing.”
I was depressed at the fact that I hadn’t realised that these two people, who looked so much alike when placed side by side, were sisters.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
