The Eternal Debauchery's

wolf in sheep's hair

There are several reasons I volunteered to leave the camp. The first is that I'm bored.

And the second is to help my sister to establish her authority.

This expedition was the perfect stage for Dina to show her talent. And to achieve that, he needs to be the center of attention.

The problem is, I'm widely known among students. In fact, my reputation as a sword genius surpassed my sister's reputation, and even though yesterday I swore allegiance to Dina in public, in the eyes of many students, it was simply a strategy I used to slap Alan's face.

So, many people still think that I have more authority than my sister.

Therefore, I must go. Once I leave, sister Dina will become the maximum authority in this place, and her position in the heart of the nervous and frightened students will increase tremendously.

That's also the reason I didn't give any opinion on my brother's plans this morning. To give the impression that it was my brother who gave the order.

And that's also the reason why I didn't just wave and kill daemons in the forest. Only when the students and teachers fought hard and persevered under Dina's lead would Dina's first move as the next emperor of the Arcadian Empire be consolidated.

This was the perfect training opportunity for Dina. In this forest, he would lead a group of naive students with the help of teachers who were unconditionally by his side. In the future, he would have to live all of the empire's lives while being wary of crafty nobles who wanted to gain greater authority.

Twenty minutes after the meeting was over, Katherine and I went to look for the route that Dina gave us.

I can understand why my sister is so sure that I won't be able to make Katherine fall in love with me. Katherine's so cold to me anyway. And he always tried to keep a respectful distance from me when we were alone.

Even now, Katherine hasn't spoken to me once since we started our mission.

To be honest, this is a very difficult challenge. Of course, it would be easier if I used my strength, but that way, this challenge would lose all its fun.

I sighed and started with the basics.You know, trying to figure out the topic of conversation.

“... So, how are you, Miss Katherine?”

“... If there is nothing important to say, please just shut up.” he said coldly.

Wow, how rude.

Fortunately for me, so many lives have made my face so thick.

“Come on, I was just trying to start a conversation to pass the time. I don't understand why you're so rude to me. Did I offend you in any way before? ”

Katherine thought for a moment before sighing. “Sorry about that, it's just that I had a bad experience with princes and nobles in general.”

Thinking about it, Evelyn told me something about this before. According to him, the reason Katherine was so prejudiced against me was because of something she had experienced before.

Mm. This can be a great entry point.

“I don't want to brag, but I'm not like most nobles, so you don't have to worry about being forced to do something that goes against your wishes.”.

Katherine glanced at me for a while and nodded after a slight hesitation.

“It is true that you are different from most nobles.and also, you and Dina are very different from your two older brothers. By the way, I like what you did yesterday.You don't mind kneeling in public just to help your sister. That's awesome.”

Mm, good good good. It's in my control.

“Then, we can be friends, right?”

"Of course not." Katherine sneered.

… It's not in the script.

Katherine looked at my expression and smiled coldly. “I admit you're good enough for a noble, but in a sense, you're even more dangerous than they are. You might be thinking of making me one of your girlfriends, right? Thinking about it, I remember the first time we met you praising my beauty and talent. Have you thought about putting your claws on me since then?"

I'm speechless. The defense of this girl is really high.

Katherine looked at my expression and smiled triumphantly.

“Even my Master said that spending too much time near you is dangerous. And just before leaving the camp, Dina warned me to be careful with your sweet words. Something about you being a wolf in sheep's clothing that likes to make pretty girls fall into your hands" Katherine said.

And the headmaster, how dare you say that when you have already fallen in my hands …?

I looked at Katherine and shrugged my shoulders. "What can I say, I'm a charming man."

Katherine rolled her eyeballs. “Too confident.”

I smile. “Now we are talking about that topic, what are your requirements for a husband?”

“...” he stays silent

“Katherine? Miss Katherine? Are you there?"

“... I'm sure that question includes s3xual.” harassment said Katherine.

“Yeah, I'm just curious. As your suitor, I'm curious about what you expect from a man.”

"So you admit that you don't have good intentions, yes." Perhaps amused by my words, Katherine decided to speak after laughing softly.

“... Well, he should be strong.”

"Like me." I said quickly.

"And handsome."

"Like me." I said quickly again.

"He must be gentle too."

“I'm soft.” I said looking at him.

“... And he should know how to cook.”

"i don't want to brag, but I'm a very good cook." I said proudly.

Katherine looked at me speechlessly.

“Looks like I'm the perfect candidate to be your husband.” I put on a satisfied expression and grinned.

However, to my surprise, Katherine looked at me for a while before smiling wickedly. "There's still a final requirement."

"I put all my ears on" I said smilingly.

“... He must be faithful.”

… okay.

I'm sure he did it on purpose.

“What's the problem, prince? Can you not consider yourself a loyal partner?

I could see Katherine looking at me with a seductive expression. This girl, does she think she won?

But before I could turn things around on her, my senses caught something from afar.

"Be careful!" I immediately acted, hugged Katherine and jumped away.

“Wah!” Katherine's eyes opened wide and her expression turned red. But just as he was about to say something, he saw an arrow hitting the place he was at a moment ago, smashing down some trees with a strong expression.

Katherine turned pale. But now was not the time to comfort him. I snorted and kicked the ground, jumping again. A second later, several arrows chased after us.

Looks like we finally met a daemon.
