[Episode 67] – How to enjoy the hunting competition (1)

The seven ‘dwarfs’ following the princess-

Unlike the hairy dwarves in fairy tales, the dwarfs in the game were different ‘fairies’. Seven dwarf fairies do not live in one place like in fairy tales, but live in different places.

The fairies are called ‘Seven Dwarves’ in the game.

The house elf ‘Brownie’ waits for a new owner in a cabin in the mist.

Havetrot, a spinning wheel fairy who makes clothes for princesses when they get close to each other.

Cat fairy ‘Cathie’, who is a capricious pet and plays the role of the princess’s pet, etc.-

A total of seven cute little dwarf fairies existed in this world.

In games, it is usually seen as a ‘sub-event’ for a princess to meet a dwarf, and if you clear this sub-event, the princess can sign a contract with the dwarf. A common story in which a princess solves the dwarves’ worries, and the dwarves are moved by the princess’s personality.

It was also a secondary goal of this game to increase the number of dwarves one by one and make friends with as many dwarves as possible until the princess turns 15 years old. There should be a lot of dwarfs because it will be of great help in clearing the ‘Main Event’ that will take place at the ‘Academy’, the main stage of autumn.

And although collecting a lot was a secondary goal, it was okay if I didn’t have to collect a lot of dwarves. In the first place, this place where I was possessed is a ‘training simulation game’ with dozens of endings.

There are countless endings in which the princess is happy even if she does not meet the dwarf.

But… It’s better to be with the princess than not to have the dwarf.

A dwarf by her side would be of great help to her. Rather than being alone, it was my idea and goal to make a few fairy friends.

‘Even if I leave the castle and leave Titania’s side, the dwarves will be able to fill my void. Even Titania would feel a little less lonely if the dwarves were by her side…’

So I made it my goal to get Titania to meet the dwarf. I didn’t intend to meet all the dwarves, but I did intend to let Titania meet at least a few dwarves.

The first goal is ‘brownie’, a house fairy that you must meet in the game.

That cabin is like the ‘fairy’s path’ that Frank told you about, and if Titania makes a contract with Brownie, she can go anywhere through the hut even if Titania doesn’t learn her magic.

Really, anywhere.

According to the description in the game, it was written that the brownie’s hut was no different from ‘another world’. Perhaps what the game wanted to explain was the fairy byway?

Anyway, I knew how to get in and out of that fog, despite its notoriety for being a devouring fog. Every time I foster a princess in the game, it was strange that I didn’t know because I went in and out of that fog.

“Whoa…”

I let out a small sigh and turned her head to look at Titania sitting next to me. Titania still flinches and looks at me whenever I make eye contact with her. Seeing this made me feel like my head hurt.

And another cause of my headache is-

“Please don’t stare at me like that. I also tried to keep as much as possible the words of Her Majesty the Queen, ‘Don’t be seen by me again.’ But in this case, what can we do?”

“…Yes. But can’t we go to another table? Princess Fiona?”

“Haa… Not even a child.”

“What?”

“Didn’t you say anything? Also, the seats were assigned by ‘Mrs. Serena’ herself, so as an invited guest, I don’t want to be in a crowd like a child. Even if I feel burdened, please be patient with me.”

It was because of ‘Princess Fiona’ who was standing next to me, covering her mouth with a fan and curling the corners of her eyes in a smile. He hadn’t known that this hunting contest hosted by Mrs. Serena was a huge event that even royalty from other countries came to visit. I thought it was just a small hunting competition hosted by the family…

Seeing if Mrs. Serena, who was busy receiving guests from afar, felt my gaze, she jumped up to greet me, looked at Princess Fiona, who was sitting next to me, and asked.

“Princess Fiona. Thank you for accepting this invitation. I sent invitations every time, but honestly, I never dreamed that the princess would visit me in person. After hearing the news of the princess’s visit, I hurriedly prepared a table, but if you have any inconvenience, please feel free to let me know.”

“No, Countess Serena. Rather, thank you for inviting me. The splendor of the beasts from these forests is really famous in our home country. Today, I really want to count the wonderful game with my own eyes.”

Hearing the greetings of the two, I naturally frowned.

So, you ignored the invitation every time and decided to attend the day I was visiting? No matter how I looked at it, I doubted it, but I had no choice but to keep my mouth shut because there was no evidence.

While I was making such a sullen expression, Princess Fiona smiled and held out the wine glass in her hand to Mrs. Serena and whispered, It was whispered in such a low voice that I could barely hear it.

“If your wife’s hunting competition ends well… Would you like to have a drink together in Mrs. Serena’s ‘room’ tonight?”

“Yes, yes?!”

Mrs. Serena covered her mouth and was startled by the sudden ‘sweetfish’.

How startled she was, until Mrs. Serena, who jumped up in place, gave her body a shudder. Princess Fiona, who smiled at her, sipped her glass and smiled.

“Just kidding. They say it’s a trend in this country, right?”

“Ah, hahahaha, yes, that’s right. It’s a social fad.”

From noble mtl dot com

Did you even know about ‘sweet words’ that are popular in social circles in other countries? If the effort is great, it’s great, but honestly, I didn’t want to praise it. I still had the ringing in my ears of what Princess Fiona had said to me.

‘I know you well. You’re not the kind of person to be sad when a child you don’t even have a blood connection with runs away from home, right? Are you pretending to be sad in front of others to manage your image as a queen?’

‘I just wanted to tell you that you don’t have to do that in front of me, Your Majesty the Queen, since you seem too tired to pretend to be sad. Don’t you get tired after acting for a long time?’

……

Thinking about it again made me feel annoyed. If I had known Vivian in the past, I would have agreed, but it was not something I would say in front of the parents who were desperately looking for their missing child. Since she was a princess from a foreign country, she ended up with one cheek. To be honest, I felt like putting her in prison right away.

Titania was also glaring at Princess Fiona, as if she were glaring at her, as if she was of the same mind as me. ‘Yeah, you’re doing great! Be vigilant and stare like that!’ While she was cheering for Titania in her heart, Titania tilted her head as if she didn’t understand, and moved closer to Princess Fiona.

Then-

“Why, did you lie to me?”

“Yes?”

“Our foreign minister said. There is no ‘second queen’ in that country. Why did you lie to me? Was it all a lie when you said, “I don’t want to be like you”? Did you insult my mother with a lie?”

…? What are you talking about?

Is this a conversation between two people I don’t know? Come to think of it, on the day Princess Fiona and her envoys left, Titania had asked the foreign minister. ‘What kind of person is the second queen of the Silver Ward Kingdom?’ She said.

There was a moment of silence at that question. Princess Fiona looked down at Titania and curled the corners of her eyes into a smile. For some reason, unlike the smiles I had made so far, for some reason, I found that smile to be sad.

“You really are so bold. Is that a question you would like to ask me in this place where everyone’s ears and eyes are open?”

“I don’t know what other people think. For now, the only thing that matters is the fact that you insulted her mother by lying to me. Tell me Why did you insult her mother by lying to me?”

“…Ha ha.”

At some point, the noisy tent became quiet. As everyone’s eyes fell on Titania and Princess Fiona, Princess Fiona let out a small sigh and laughed. Princess Fiona, who looked down at the princess with a cold, expressionless and icy gaze, replied to Titania in her cold voice.

“Princess Titania, I did not lie.”

“But…!”

“How can a foreign minister in a foreign country know my true past? To believe only the word of a subordinate and to accuse the opponent of being a liar. Is this how Princess Titania treats her foreign princess? I never acted so immature when I was your age.”

Hwaak-

At that answer, Titania’s face turned red.

“You…!”

“Titania! Come here!”

I had no choice but to stop Titania from seeing her look as if she was going to scream at any moment. It was because, in my opinion, Titania was emotionally charged. Titania was a smart kid, but her weakness was that she couldn’t control her emotions when she just talked about me.

I sat Titania on my lap and patted her head, trying hard to soothe her. Thank you so much for taking the piss for me, but the place wasn’t good. This was in a tent for a hunting tournament, and it wasn’t just the three of us in the tent.

As Titania became quiet, the nobles in the tent began to look away. Their eyes turned the other way, but their ears were still open to us. Maybe it’s a habit of the nobles, but the nobles who like this stimulating situation didn’t seem to have any intention of going out of the tent.

I sighed for a moment, then turned my head to look at Princess Fiona. Princess Fiona was still expressionless, staring at the cup in her hand.

“…Princess Fiona, I don’t know what you and Titania were talking about, but I want you to answer this with the truth.”

“What do you mean?”

“Did you really ‘lie’ to Titania?”

Princess Fiona, who was looking at her glass at my question, raised her head and looked at me. An expressionless face with no hint of laughter. No, on the contrary, he seemed a little angry. Princess Fiona sighed for a moment, sipped from the glass in her hand, and answered me.

“I don’t know if you’ll believe me when I say this, but… No, I didn’t lie. Of what I said to Princess Titania at that tea party, I did not lie a single word. You can risk everything.”

“…Yes.”

“And to you that day.”

“What?”

Princess Fiona stood up from her seat, raised her head and looked down at me. The raw disgust and contempt that she did not hide in the cold gaze she looked down upon. What the hell did ‘Vivian’ do to Princess Fiona, so she doesn’t hide her feelings so much?

‘…If you look at me, the way you treat me emotionally is the same as Titania’s… It’s not like Titania’s crush, but disgust and contempt…’

Seeing that scornful gaze, I let out a deep sigh and hugged Titania, who was about to run wild in her arms. For some reason, Princess Fiona’s expression seemed to wrinkle more whenever she clung to Titania. Maybe I’m mistaken…?

In such an atmosphere like a great hallucination, a large bell rang out.

The bell announcing the start of the hunting competition.

Everyone started cheering and riding into the woods. Our schedule was to go into the forest with the scholars who had gathered to investigate the forest immediately after those participants returned.

After watching the participants enter the forest for a while, Princess Fiona let out her deep sigh, then smiled again and looked at Titania and me. I was honestly afraid of that changeable expression.

“Your Highness the Queen? Would it be okay if I ask what your future schedule will be like?”

“Ah, um… After we entered the forest with the scholars, we plan to have a picnic at the place Mrs. Serena recommended… Isn’t Princess Fiona going to the hunting competition?”

“I just came to watch the animals being caught. I can’t even shoot a bow.”

Princess Fiona flexed her forearms and gave her arms a lot of strength, but instead of her biceps coming out, her delicate forearms only trembled. Princess Fiona, who had been panting as if exhausted after giving only a little strength, let out a sigh of her tiredness and smiled brightly as she looked at me and Titania.

“Then would it be all right if I followed you? To be honest, I wanted to go into the forest too!”

“…..”

At that moment, I lowered my head and looked at Titania. I had never imagined that Titania would be able to make such an expression. He frowned at how much he hated Princess Fiona’s proposal, looking like her hounds growling in anger.

“Yes? Are you okay though? I just brought a delicious snack! There are egg tarts… And also some fun books for pastime…”

Princess Fiona begins to urge when there is no answer.

Now I don’t know what the hell Princess Fiona is thinking.

You looked at me earlier and got so angry, this time you want to go out together? Is it because of diplomacy? Or high politics? I frowned, let out a deep sigh, and looked up at Princess Fiona.

When Princess Fiona met her eyes with mine, Princess Fiona looked at me and smiled her big smile. As if I was responding to that smile, she replied with a big smile.

“I hate it.”
