1:24:05maybe if they were on the land the nobles bought…
1:24:06What if the dire wolves are rare?
1:24:06Maybe they're magical wolves and their fur coat has other purposes?
1:24:10And not having dirt in their hands
1:24:12They won’t know :_SaeirStare:
1:24:13Aren't there like noble hunting competitions though?
1:24:19all i know noble family just like to collect pretty things, and elf are pretty
1:24:22what if they use them for sacrifices like a cult
1:24:22it could be a hunting festival thing????
1:24:23Me :handshake: you and our villainess stories
1:24:28unless they heard about the kid and they wanted the kid for something
1:24:29Nobles did whatever they wanted though so there is no doubt they could do it for sport
1:24:32mayyyybe the paid them to do it for their sick child or something
1:24:35maybe the nobles heard of a rare creature?
1:24:36stepmother either is pregnant or has a child and that's the whole reason to secretly poisoning the firstborn sickly child
1:24:48They could have been sold the pelts without knowing :_Saeirkira:
1:24:51what about a noble hunting party?
1:25:02Maybe he just learned that they bought one of the pelts, not necessarily hired them?
1:25:03what if u are the illegitimate son of the stepmother
1:25:05Hear me out. Stepmom offs the child and blames you
1:25:05nah, poachers are just poachers, they just happen to strike jackpot in finding you. and when they learnt of the nobility's secret order to find a child of a certain look/build, they brought u to them
1:25:08Saeir knows ball:_Saeirkira:
1:25:13I think you getting blamed for the real kid's death would be good
1:25:14What about secret job? Poison the kid. Kill the mother, take the money, it’s just business
1:25:29VOLTAIRE YESSSS :_Saeirkira:
1:25:43HAVE YOU SEEN THE ANIME "Though I am an Inept Villainess"
1:25:54World building :_SaeirHungy:
