The hunting feast day came as aristocrat and noble af the Empire hunt at the located forest and whoever got the most hunts will receive a single wish by the Emperor which the Emperor himself has the power also to grant and deny the said wish depending its wish unharmful to society.

Lord Rutherford is one of the former classmates from a noble household which detested the seventh prince. He has also joined the feast as he rides on his horse he approaches the prince before the feast began. "Your Highness must know this hunt is only for those who is strong."

The seventh prince looks at his former classmate without interest. "Your petty words don't affect me Rutherford. Let's just see who has the most-" Prince Azule was not able to finish his sentence as blood splash on his cheeks from the man who he was just conversing with now is dead. Head rolling down the ground as his body falls down his horse. The participants were all in shock as behind him the youngest Marchand who is participating the hunt had used his sword to murder in broad daylight the noble. Blood splash on his fine black cloak. The youngest Marchand smiles as he then speaks up. "He was insulting his Highness, that alone is treason and must be punishable by death."

The participants we're looking elsewhere as the Emperor only chuckles before he maneuvers his horse and place a hand on Elliott's shoulder. "I am grateful for your loyalty to the crown, young lord Marchand."

Elliott bows his head down.

The Emperor then raised his hand as he then speaks up. "Let us begin." The hunters immediately coaches their horses towards the forest in a hurry leaving Elliott and Prince Azule behind. The Emperor then ordered some royal guards to clean up the dead body. The Emperor neared his youngest son. "You got a loyal friend." He said before leaving.

Elliott offers a smile at Prince Azule who hesitantly smiles back as he coaches his horse to enter the forest with Elliott following him.

Emerald knew something was off his brother. He held Kaiser tenderly as he looked at worriedly at the forest entrance where soon his youngest brother's back vanishes from his view. He felt a hand on his shoulder. He turns to see Prince Azure. "Something is wrong with your brother."

Emerald hesitantly nods. "I don't know why he did that... his not like this... he is calm... he doesn't resolve into conflict unless needed." Emerald then asks. "What has happened when I was away?, Tell me?, I know you keep tabs on us. You always keep an eye at our household."

Prince Azure sighs. "I do not know also. All the reports are clear with him doing his usual tasks and hanging out with my younger brother."

Emerald furrowed his brows. "It must be your younger brother's fault. He must cause this-"

"Can't you just accept that your brother being a loyal friend to-"

"Loyalty is out of the question here. He just killed someone in broad daylight and no one even- what just happened is wrong. You and I both know it." Emerald cuts him off. As he then added. "If something happens to Elliott, I'll held your brother responsible for it." Before leaving the eldest prince.

Prince Azure sighs as he looks back at the forest his eyes narrowed as he murmured. "They should watch out for your brother instead, my dearest Emerald." He then calls out the head of the royal guards. "Make sure the second young lord Marchand avoids killing another one of the hunters."

"Yes your Highness."






At the end of the hunt the seventh prince has the most number of killed beast. He was asked for his wish however the youngest prince simply answered that he has not think of one as of the moment. The prince answered in assurance he will tell his imperial father once he thought of his special wish and so the day goes on with a celebration. A banquet was made in the palace the aristocrat and nobles eat and drink in their hearts content as they chatted.
