Aldrich raced on his horse through the wooods and followed the prompt but he couldn't do that for long. But half the work was already done.
"Heya!"
Only he was greeted with the worst possible scene.
Ayemon held the horned fox by the horn and it was already shot dead by an accurate arrow to the heart.
"Oh? You got here much faster than I expected…"
"Y-you knew where to find it from the beginning!" Aldrich realized with a start.
"Oh, yeah. Well, I knew where to look. This is after all my backyard, I know it like the back of my hand."
"B-but that's cheating!" Aldrich pointed.
"How is it cheating? It's not a Skill and I didn't use any of my powers. Don't be a sore loser." Ayemon said all that while gloating with a shit-eating grin.
'This guy has no qualms about playing dirty, damn it!'
Back in the mansion while the fox was cooking Aldrich continued with his tale about his adventure starting with their arrival in Ebrict.
