97 The Hunt Part-1 (2/2)

As such they were stuck with hiking to their destination, with Anne as their guide.

As they reached the base of the mountain Aika and another as she spoke, ”I wish you success and safety on your hunting trip Your Highness.”

Ryuu just nodded at that as he spoke, ”Aika, please keep an eye on the villagers and make sure that no stray beasts harm them.”

Aika bowed acknowledging Ryuu's command, soon Ryuu disappeared along with his hunting party disappeared from her views.

Ryuu because of excitement had forgot a very important rule, which now hit him like a tons of brick, as his thoughts went back to the rule his eldest sister laid for such a situations.

Flashback~

Antariskh in a serious manner, ”Ryuu, if you want to go on a hunt during out absence remember you will be in charge and have to plan the hunt without the help of our maids, they may help you to set the traps,help you carry the carcass of the prey, help you to scout, but they may not help you in combat until and unless your life is in danger as such they will not fight on your behalf at full strength but will always be at low Primal Daoist level only when your life is in danger will they fight with their true strength also as long as you do not fight neither will they.”

Currently Ryuu and his party was only half way up the mountain, on the other side is deep valley in between which was a large lake where their prey currently resided.

Ryuu was currently going through a crudely drawn map made by Anne, as he spoke ”Mary what do you think about this small gorge which connects the other side of the mountain with the valley.”

Mary: ”I think it will be better your highness the gap is enough,I think we could trap the beast there with the help of our traps, it is a shame we could only use traps made for beast up to high Primal Daoist realm otherwise we could have completely immobilized it, the huge body will cause it to get stuck here enabling us to defeat it easily”

Ryuu nodded at that before he turned to another blond haired maid as he spoke, ”Jeeva, you are the most agile and fast among all of us, I hope you would be able to lure it towards the trap.”

Jeeva just bowed as she replied, ”It will be done as you wish your highness.”

Ryuu then spoke as he stood near the edge of the mountain overlooking the valley, as he spoke with predatory smirk, ”Well Let the Hunt Begin.”
