How to Live Comfortably as an Abandoned Prince Chapter 230 : Chapter 230

Chapter 230. Claim the Magical Beast Ball (2)

When Inette discovered the stall, people who had already heard rumors were gathered.

"I heard they sell delicious things here?"

"They say you can buy iced coffee and things to eat."

"They said the Prince was selling diligently until just now?"

At the ntion of Radel's na, the first-years imdiately showed expressions of understanding.

"It was Prince Radel's stall."

"No wonder. I wondered who opened a stall."

"Then will they also do a buy two get one free event?"

While the first-years actively shared information, the seniors were fascinated by the form of the stall they were seeing for the first ti.

Since outsiders could not enter the sports festival, it was their first ti seeing such full-scale business.

"Did you co to buy iced coffee too?"

"Yeah. At first, I asked how you could put ice in coffee, but it was decent once I tried it. Refreshing."

" too. Personally, I think not adding syrup is cleaner."

Inette opened her mouth listening to people's conversations.

It seed rumors had spread trendously in that short ti. To think even Academy seniors were flocking here.

'It's a huge success, isn't it?'

If she wasn't careful, she might not be able to buy it even if she had money because there was no stock.

Inette quickly squeezed through the people.

She was anxious that the new snacks might have sold out in the anti.

"One iced coffee!"

"Two cups for !"

At the stall that looked more decent than before, Armandy was moving busily and sweating.

"Yes, coming right up!"

And beside him, a man wearing a suspicious teddy bear mask was standing and diligently grilling squid.

"Three butter-grilled squids!"

NOD.

The teddy bear grilled the squids while moving his hands quickly without a word.

What is that now?

Inette's eyes narrowed.

Since outsiders definitely couldn't enter the Academy sports festival, he must be an insider.

If he was a student, was there a need to wear such a suspicious teddy bear mask?

...Naturally, he wasn't a student.

He was an Academy staff mber.

Radel had claid they were shorthanded and eventually pushed even Pirenzo into the stall.

'It seems difficult for Armandy to do it alone. Professor, you can help, right?'

'Yes? What am I...?'

'Since you've consistently worked together with Armandy, it won't be difficult.'

Pirenzo accepted the doll mask Radel held out like that…

And Armandy, who was sweating profusely alone, could regain his lost smile.

And Radel, the culprit of all these incidents, said he had to go run the next match, taught Pirenzo only how to grill butter-grilled squid, and disappeared suddenly.

"Five cups of iced coffee!"

"Butter-grilled squid too!"

Armandy ground his teeth inwardly while diligently infusing magic into the ice bowl.

'Stop coming!'

However, unlike his heart, his hands were moving frantically.

"Yes, please wait a mont. Coming right up!"

Seeing Pirenzo wearing a teddy bear mask and sweating profusely made him feel a little better at least.

Still, in front of the constantly flocking custors, he had no choice but to clench his teeth.

And he ended up screaming toward Radel who made him like this.

'I've had it again!'

* * *

Around the ti Armandy and Pirenzo were struggling with the flocking custors.

Radel was preparing for the Magical Beast Ball match that would start soon.

"Look, that's the ball. It's a bit heavy, but you should be able to drive it to the goal sufficiently."

Since most large magical beasts could easily lift an adult wearing armor, that ball wouldn't be that heavy.

Radel spoke to the griffin and looked at the opposing team's goal.

There, a giant sli covering the goal was wriggling its body.

Although magic couldn't be used in this match, magical beasts' abilities could be utilized freely.

Aiming for that, the second-year seniors had strategically brought a sli to guard the goal.

- SCREEECH!

Hearing Radel's words, the griffin looked alternately at the ball and the goal and cried long.

It was a protest asking how to put the ball into such a sticky goal.

Radel scratched the griffin's flank to soothe its mood.

"Don't worry. You can do it. We defeated a water dragon too."

- SCREECH!

Although annoyed, the griffin seed to say it would try, shuddering its body once and then becoming calm.

Actually, there was sothing else concerning Radel more than the griffin.

The gazes of the second-year seniors looking this way since earlier were sohow burdenso.

They kept looking this way... No, it seed they were looking at the griffin.

The seniors' eyes were flashing unusually.

Their conversation could even be heard from afar.

"If we just... put it in the stable like this..."

"Then... get the professor's permission and make a specin..."

He didn't know well, but he felt a dangerous feeling.

'Is it okay?'

Radel had brought the griffin from Raviedel at the earnest request of his first-year friends.

It would have been good if Radel went to Raviedel personally, but he couldn't because he was busy.

Since receiving the official support of the Supre Deity Order, the House of the Undead beca busier, and he was also frantic making the newly developed hangover cure.

Thanks to that, the territory deputy Chariot suffered in the middle.

'As the Prince said, when I went up to the valley and grilled at, it appeared.'

Chariot, who ca to find Radel with the griffin, said as if it was fascinating.

'And when I said I had business going to the Prince, it followed .'

'It wouldn't have followed just anyone. The griffin recognized Chariot. Because you are the territory deputy.'

Chariot, feeling shy, also delivered news of the territory.

'The teor Shower Knights are adapting well. Recently, they joined forces with the lizardn and increased the potato field a lot. Next ti, we plan to plant corn.'

At first, the lizardn, displeased with the suddenly appeared teor Shower Knights, picked fights and their relationship wasn't good, but after crossing swords in free sparring, they acknowledged each other.

'That's good news. Chariot always suffers a lot.'

'Not at all, Prince. It was good to see you even for a short ti like this.'

Since outsiders couldn't enter the Academy, Radel sent Chariot away again leaving his regret behind.

- SCREEECH!

When Radel stopped scratching its flank, the griffin made a crying sound as if protesting.

"Okay, okay."

Radel moved his hand again and soothed the griffin.

"Let's eat at to your heart's content once this match is over. Got it?"

- SCREE E ECH!

The griffin reacted quickly to the sound of at.

* * *

BANG!

The magical beast of the second-year seniors driving the ball was hit by the griffin's wing and flew sideways.

The griffin didn't miss that gap and grabbed the ball as it was.

And flapping its wings, it flew up.

"Th-the griffin!"

However, the second-year seniors were not surprised by the griffin's attack.

As the griffin flew up right before their eyes holding the ball, they could see the griffin's belly up close.

"No way. How could such an opportunity co to ...!"

A second-year senior muttered while chewing over what just happened.

"Goodness... there are no feathers on the belly...!"

Then another second-year senior approached driving a unicorn.

"Of course, the bottom is a lion!"

"I know, I know too. I know but... seeing it in person was so, so moving that I just...!"

As the second-year senior was moved, the first-years riding rock eagles smiled from the side.

It was a smile where the corners of their mouths twitched automatically wanting to boast.

"Do you know that, Seniors? We saw the griffin right next to us."

"What?"

"Because the griffin is an athlete on our team. The Prince even permitted us to see it right next to him?"

"Such...!"

The second-years ended up shocked by the first-years' rciless ntal attack.

"Ugh, I'm envious! Surely you guys... didn't see even the griffin's claws up close, right?"

"Kukuku. What do you think?"

The first-years smiled despicably and looked at the seniors.

"S-surely...?"

Noticing the aning contained in that smile, the seniors' eyes trembled.

"Don't be surprised. We even touched the claws directly?"

"Right. I don't know if you can believe it?"

As the first-years' smiles deepened, the seniors' envy also deepened.

"Ugh...! Cheap guys!"

And there was a person watching that scene with embarrassnt.

It was Radel.

'The ball was taken but no one is defending?'

Everyone... shouldn't be talking but playing the match?

While thinking that, Radel faithfully sent a signal to the griffin.

TAP.

Then the griffin rushed toward the goal holding the ball.

Since the sli was blocking the goal, it intended to break through frontally.

CRASH!

SPLAT!

A large hole was pierced in the wriggling sli, and a goal went in along with the griffin.

At the sa ti, Professor Donton raised his hand and shouted.

"Match end!"

The result was 5 to 4.

Surprisingly, it was the first-years' victory.

"Woaah! Prince, we won!"

"It's all thanks to the griffin!"

"It's the Black Falcon Dormitory's victory!"

Soaked in emotion, the first-years drove their magical beasts and ran to the griffin.

The first-years hadn't thought they could win against the second-years who had strong magical beasts.

But thanks to the griffin's activity and the seniors' agitation, they managed to win sohow.

"Long live Black Falcon Dormitory!"

"Long live Prince Radel Silvert Cretian!"

Amidst the athletes' cheers, Radel thought inwardly.

'Hmm, we won... We won but.'

What is this feeling that it doesn't seem like we won sohow.

It was an unknown feeling.

* * *

After the Magical Beast Ball match ended, Radel was taking a rest to prepare for the next match.

But the griffin kept not staying still since earlier.

- SCREECH! SCREECH!

As if asking why there was no promised reward even though the match ended, the griffin flapped its wings and protested.

"Okay. I'll give it to you soon."

Radel took the griffin to the backyard to grill even jerky for now.

And there he discovered Venus feeding water to the hippogriff.

"Senior, you were here."

"...It was a good match."

"No way. Surely you don't really think that?"

Radel, recalling the seniors and friends who focused on the griffin rather than the match, grinned and asked.

Then Venus, who was expressionless, smiled faintly.

"By the way, the people of the Marquisate are doing well, right?"

"...Yeah."

Radel asked after the Esven Marquisate and talked about Magical Beast Ball, sharing a short conversation with Venus.

However, Venus kept glancing at the griffin even while talking.

Noticing that, Radel opened his mouth first.

"Would you like to touch the griffin once?"

"...Can I?"

"Of course, Senior."

Radel also asked the griffin.

"You're okay too, right?"

SWISH!

However, the griffin turned its head sharply at Radel's words.

"Ah, that's permission so don't worry. If it really disliked it, it would have made a fuss."

Radel spoke nonchalantly, took out a piece of jerky, and grilled it.

And quickly putting it in the griffin's beak, he gestured to Venus.

"You can co now."

Venus stroked the griffin's wings and spent a happy ti for a mont.

He recalled the ti when Radel asked how to ta a griffin in the past.

Back then, he didn't expect him to really succeed.

He just thought the junior interested in magical beasts was comndable.

But in the end, didn't he ta the griffin excellently?

Venus decided to tell this comndable direct junior a few secrets.
