Edited Novel of IBTMITL (Chapter 201-256)

Chapter 204

It was Perez with a bow in one hand.

It was like an encounter that happened by accident.

Well, is it really a coincidence?

This is the reason why I tag along.

Whatever Perez had prepared, I had a strong feeling that it would happen by the end of the hunting competition, which is today.

"Your Majesty, this is..."

Perez, who was about to say something to Emperor Yovanes, found me and stopped talking.

I could tell by his eyes what he wanted to say, 'Why are you here?'

I smiled and looked at him as if telling him to do his own business.

'I'm just here to watch.'

But Perez, whose face became stiff, couldn't take his eyes off me.

"Was the Second Prince also hunting around here?"

In the end, Yovanes spoke to him first.

"...Yes, Your Majesty, this is a place where dangerous monsters come out. Let's move to the other side." Perez said turning away from me with difficulty.

"Hmm, is that so? I thought this was still close to the entrance."

"Yes, I'll take you somewhere safe."

At Perez' words the emperor turned to the imperial knight commander.

"That would be better. Your Highness will know better what's going on inside the forest than us."

Eventually, I, the emperor, and the ten members of the imperial knights lined up after Perez.

At first glance, it seemed like we were going somewhere safe at the entrance of the forest, but Perez, who was leading us made a big turn.

Hmmm, is this?

Then it happened suddenly.

Kiiaaaak!!

A monster with sharp claws popped out while screaming weirdly.

And, unfortunately, it was the emperor that it jumped into and aimed.

The imperial knights quickly tried to protect the Emperor.

Peeing!

However, the arrow shot by Perez came first.

The monster was hit by an arrow from the side and immediately fell out.

But it was not alone.

The next one popped up right away.

But this time the direction wasn't good.

It approached the blind spot of the imperial knights.

Gasp!

Emperor Yovanes stepped back in surprise, but the monster seemed to succeed in coming at him.

Kiiyaaak!

The monster's roar was heard right in front of him.

Right then, the monster's long claws touch the Emperor's chest.

Flash!

The blue light flashed and the monster split in half and fell on the floor.

"Huh, huh?...."

Emperor Yovanes blinked his eyes and made a steady, deflating sound.

And the Emperor's hands touched his protective gear.
