章 277: His warning

"They had started."

Conan blinked twice as he set his eyes on Aries's side. Noticing the lopsided smirk on her face, he tilted his head to the side. 

"Lady Aries, are you planning on joining the crown prince?" he asked out of plain curiosity, watching her look back at him with a sweet smile.

"Of course not!" she giggled, adjusting the reins on one hand while she carried the crossbow in position. "They had started, so it means it's my time to hunt! I got a competition to win." 

Conan tilted his head, but before he could speak, Aries already sped away like a madwoman. 

"Come on, Sir Conan! Let's put your vacation to good use and hunt for me!"

"Hey…!" he outstretched his hand but to no avail, eyes on the dust her steed was ambling up. "I feel like I don't even know the entire plan anymore."
