While being completely oblivious to whatever schemes were in Abrielle's mind, Cedric didn't like the hunt. It explains why he would rather spend his time fighting a barbarian than be surrounded by a group of power-hungry nobles.
"That's a nice offer, but the king also delegates his representative, and since the hunt is going to be during winter, I am not sure my wife will be fine with it, considering how vulnerable she is to cold." Cedric wanted to politely decline, using Abrielle as an excuse.
Yes, the Villainess had a weak constitution against cold but dear Abrielle was ready to fight the elements to change her fate.
"I guess that will be a shame..the winter hunt being in the middle of the snow can be cold but it's a fun social gathering to end the year. " Rudeus said in a sad tone.
Abrielle's grip on Cedric's arm tightened, causing him to look down at her, and she was surprised to see her staring at him with glassy eyes and a cute pout.
