The Villainess Hides Her Wealth - Chapter 92.2
Chapter 92.2
Primrose’s successor seemed to be in poor condition, so if he didn’t do anything, there was a good chance that Sir Vieira would win.
Whether he would dedicate the hunt to Yuria, or whether he would be sarcastic about it…
He couldn’t just sit still and watch.
‘He proposed to his fiancée’s sister. I can’t believe he can show that kind of attitude.’
In a hunting competition, was the winner the one who brought the most prey or the one who brought the hardest catch?
It was set somewhat subjectively based on the two criteria.
‘So I’ll do both.’
After running fast on the hunting grounds and sweeping everything away like a typhoon, he looked around to meet the other criteria.
‘That…’
And he saw the way to the mountain in front of him.
In fact, if Crown Prince Enoch could look at himself objectively, he would already know that he had done enough to win the hunting competition.
But now, to be honest, he was a little out of his mind. He wanted to dedicate an overwhelming victory to Yuria.
***
The young men who participated in the hunting competition continued to move forward in search of suitable prey.
But nothing changed.
“What the…”
The hunting grounds were already devastated by Enoch.
As they each hurried to steal something, they met with the other noble gentlemen.
But the others also didn’t have much profit.
“Wasn’t it that the Primrose duchy didn’t release a lot of prey?”
“I also suspect that. Otherwise, how could we not find anything at all?”
“But… if you look around, there are traces of a hunt taking place.”
“Ah, I’ve seen a lot of them over there, too.”
“I came from the side opposite you and there were traces there, too?”
And they all came to the same conclusion.
“Then, doesn’t that mean that someone keeps hunting on these hunting grounds?”
And it was impossible for them not to know who it was.
Because he had so much prey, Crown Prince Enoch had started piling it up in advance.
“Crown Prince Enoch is the winner of this hunting competition.”
A pile of prey. Even animals that professional hunters found hard to catch.
And it wasn’t over. It was still piling up.
“I wasn’t expecting it because he has never participated in a hunting competition!”
That voice could be heard even in the forest.
“I mean… I couldn’t catch a single animal.”
“Me neither.”
While the other noblemen were stunned, only one grinned.
“Excuse me, would you please step aside?”
“Oh!”
It was Sir Vieira.
He deliberately passed between the noblemen who had nothing in their hands.
Then, he put down the prey he had caught in front of him.
“It’s a thunderbird.”
The eyes of those who saw it were wide open.
“Is it really a thunderbird?”
“What is a thunderbird?”
“What is that…”
“Ahhh!”
Sir Vieira smiled inwardly at the different exclamations from before.
‘The crown prince must have caught only easy prey. Making threats as the crown prince made it difficult for me, the son of a count, to fight back, but… it’s a different story if it’s a rare prey.’
Sir Vieira comfortably thought that they were quickly intimidated by his skills.
‘I was lucky to find a rare mountain thunderbird. It was easier to catch than the rumors say, so I guess my skills are fine.’
He was looking forward to seeing the expression on the crown prince’s face after saying that there was no need to deter him.
And what would Yuria say when she saw him?
‘Even now, everyone is looking at me differently.’
The thunderbird was such a great prey that it allowed him to find his confidence again.
“Sir Vieira… How did you catch a bird that runs away so quickly at the slightest indication of someone’s presence?”
“No matter how many prey His Highness caught, if it’s something like a thunderbird…”
“But His Highness has caught almost all the prey in the hunting grounds!”
Already, the people were divided when talking about who was the winner of the hunting competition.
‘Tsk. Quality is more important than quantity.’
Sir Vieira clicked his tongue inwardly. However, this wasn’t bad either.
Of course, what he initially aimed for was a solid win.
‘But I also know how to use my head quite a bit.’
If Crown Prince Enoch won, it would leave the impression that he had been pushed because of his status in front of the woman he liked.
Considering that he had made a regrettable move so far, it might be better to get a sympathy vote.
But at that moment, when everything seemed perfect, something happened.
