Carl, who was enjoying the gentle atmosphere, realized that quite a bit of time had passed, so he took out his pocket watch and checked the time.
"Uhm... Lady Catherine, the appointed time has passed. I guess I'll have to go back empty-handed."
"Oh my, that's a shame..."
Both Carl and Bilford left their regrets behind and returned the way they came. It would be a bit embarrassing if they came back like this. However, since he held a low-ranking position, there was nothing to lose.
"I wanted to give Lilly something worthwhile as a gift."
"Isn't it more important to catch the first hunt rather than a good hunt?"
"Well, it would only be troublesome to give him an animal corpse as a gift right away."
"Ha ha ha ha ha."
Bilford burst into laughter at Carl's words. For a moment, he even forgot that Carl was a prince. There was also a part of him that thought Carl's words were not sincere but a joke.
