DAMMIT! DAMMIT! DAMMIT! GODDAMMIT! WHY AM I STUCK HERE?! AH...?! I'LL MAKE SURE TO TEAR YOU APART, LIMB FROM LIMB...! AH, THERE'S SOMETHING I MUST DO TOMORROW. TELL EVERYONE THAT I'M ENTERING THE IMPERIAL FOREST, BUT DON'T ACTUALLY GO IN...? WHY SHOULD I DO SUCH A RIDICULOUS THING?! I HAVE SOME BUSINESS THERE. THEN JUST GO IN! I DON'T WANT ANYONE KNOWING MY WHEREABOUTS. IF YOU SAY YOU'RE GOING, NO ONE ELSE WILL BE ABLE TO ENTER THE IMPERIAL FOREST, RIGHT? WHAT EXACTLY ARE YOU SCHEMING? WHAT ARE YOU PLANNING TO DO IN THERE ALONE? LET'S JUST SAY...IT'S FOR TREATMENT. IN THE MEANTIME, YOU CAN QUIETLY STAY IN THIS ROOM... THIS BASTARD! YOU SEEM TO BE UNDER THE IMPRESSION THAT YOU'RE SOMEONE IMPORTANT THESE DAYS. I CAN JUST ASK THE SCHOLARS OF THE EMPIRE ABOUT A TRIFLING TREATMENT LIKE THIS. YOU'RE REALLY TESTING THE LIMIT OF MY PATIENCE. I'LL END YOUR LIFE RIGHT NOW. ASK THE... SCHOLARS," HUH... THEN...YOU BETTER...HURRY. SINCE YOU USED MANIS JUST NOW. YOUR LIFESPAN... MUST HAVE DECREASED AGAIN... UGH! UUUUGH! UGH! UUUUGH! IF YOU STOP THE TREATMENT NOW, YOU WON'T EVEN BE ABLE TO MOVE PROPERLY FOR A WEEK. AREN'T YOU CURIOUS ABOUT THE IMPERIAL FAMILY'S REACTION, ONCE THE RUMOR THAT THE FIRST PRINCE OF THE EMPIRE HAS COLLAPSED SPREADS? WILL THEY TRY TO FIND A WAY TO SAVE YOU? OR WILL THEY REACT DIFFERENTLY? IF THE TREATMENT FAILS, SOMEONE ELSE WILL TAKE THE THRONE AS THE NEXT EMPEROR. YOU LITTLE WORM...! DO YOU STILL NOT UNDERSTAND? I'M TELLING YOU TO USE YOUR BRAIN IF YOU DON'T WANT TO DIE. MAYBE IT'S BECAUSE I SHARE THE SAME BLOOD AS YOU. BUT MY PATIENCE ISN'T VERY DEEP. AND DROP THE IDEA OF HAVING PEOPLE MONITOR ME. BECAUSE DISAPPEARING WITHOUT A TRACE IS ANOTHER SPECIALTY OF MINE. SINCE IT'S FAILED EVERY TIME, ISN'T IT ABOUT TIME YOU GAVE UP? IT ONLY DELAYS THE TREATMENT AND EXHAUSTS US BOTH. WHAT EXACTLY IS YOUR GOAL...?! WHY ARE YOU DOING THIS?! MY GOAL... WELL. IF I HAD TO SAY... "SURVIVAL"... I GUESS? GOOD, I'VE SEARCHED THE FOREST THREE TIMES AND I DON'T SEE A SINGLE PERSON. THERE'S A REASON I EMPTIED THIS PLACE OUT, EVEN IF IT MEANT IRRITATING THE FIRST PRINCE. BECAUSE I PLAN TO EXPERIMENT WITH MY ABILITY TODAY. AFTER WHAT HAPPENED LAST TIME, THE POSSIBILITY AROSE THAT I MAY BE ABLE TO TRANSFORM INTO OTHER ANIMALS. IF THE TYPES OF ANIMALS ARE MORE DIVERSE... IT MIGHT BE A MUCH BETTER ABILITY THAN I THOUGHT. TO FIND OUT, I NEED TO UNDERSTAND MY ABILITY PRECISELY. BECAUSE I NEED TO KNOW IN ADVANCE HOW IT CAN BE USED. AMONG THOSE, THE PART I NEED TO FIGURE OUT THE FASTEST IS... THE "CONDITION" TO TRANSFORM INTO THE CORRESPONDING ANIMAL. THE EASIEST THING THAT COMES TO MIND IS "CONTACT." BECAUSE THERE WAS PRIOR PHYSICAL CONTACT WITH BOTH OF THE ANIMALS I'VE MANAGED TO TRANSFORM INTO SO FAR. SO, IN ORDER TO TEST THIS HYPOTHESIS, I'LL JUST HAVE TO... CATCH A NEW ANIMAL TO FIND OUT. LET'S START BY CATCHING A SMALL ONE. IT'S A CRUDE TRAP, BUT IT HAS BAIT, SO IT SHOULD BE FINE, RIGHT? THESE TOP-QUALITY BERRIES I BROUGHT FROM THE IMPERIAL KITCHEN... RUSTLE? ...A SQUIRREL? THE TRAP ISN'T EVEN FINISHED YET... CAN I CATCH IT? ? OH MY? LOOK AT THIS LITTLE GUY. WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO IF A BAD PERSON CATCHES YOU ACTING LIKE THAT? ...ANYWAYS, I QUICKLY SUCCEEDED IN MAKING CONTACT. ALRIGHT... THEN NOW... LET'S GIVE IT... A SHOT! TRANSFORM! NOW THAT I THINK ABOUT IT, DOES THE SITUATION MATTER WHEN TRANSFORMING INTO AN ANIMAL? THE SITUATIONS WHERE I DESPERATELY WANTED TO "FLY" AND WANTED TO "RUN"! WHAT SHOULD I DO? AN ACTION A SQUIRREL WOULD TAKE... I WANT TO CLIMB A TREE? I WANT TO GO INTO A MOUSE HOLE? BUT WOULD IT BE OKAY IF I DON'T MEAN IT FROM THE START? SQUEAK SQUEAK SQUEAK SQUEAK! HEY, SQUIRREL! WHAT ARE YOU DOING, TAKING THE WHOLE BAG?! IF YOU WANT TO EAT ACORNS, JUST ASK FOR THEM! GIVE ME THE BAG! GOT IT! SQUEAK, SQUEAK! YOU CAN WITHSTAND THIS?! ALRIGHT, LET'S SEE WHO WINS! HOW LONG CAN A LITTLE THING LIKE YOU HOLD OUT? AH... P-PRINCE, I HAVE PREPARED DINNER. ...COME IN. SINCE THE PRINCE TOLD ME TO COME IN HIMSELF, THERE SHOULDN'T BE ANY PROBLEMS, RIGHT? PLEASE LET ME BE SAFE THIS TIME... H-HEEEK...! P-PRINCE! YOUR CLOTHES...?! DON'T BE ALARMED. I JUST GOT DIRTY WHILE TAKING A WALK IN FRONT OF THE PALACE. AH, YES... I SEE. I ALMOST GOT CAUGHT TRANSFORMING INTO A CROW. IN THE END, I COULDN'T EVEN FIGURE OUT HOW TO TRANSFORM INTO A NEW ANIMAL, AND JUST CHASED THAT DAMN SQUIRREL AROUND ALL DAY. MY CLOTHES ARE DIRTY, SO BRING ME NEW ONES. I SHOULD BATHE BEFORE EATING. YES, UNDERSTOOD! B-BUT... BUT...? THE THING INSIDE THAT BAG... DID Y-YOU BRING IT WITH YOU...? THIS DAMN SQUIRREL...?! CRAZY SQUIRREL...! GASP! IS THE PRINCE GOING TO TORMENT THE POOR SQUIRREL...?! I-I WILL THROW IT OUTSIDE! PLEASE SPARE ITS LIFE...! BRING THE CLOTHES. Y-YES...? I GAVE YOU AN ORDER EARLIER! BRING ME NEW CLOTHES RIGHT NOW! I MUST HURRY BACK! OTHERWISE, CUTE DARAM-I WILL...!! DARAMI...! JUST WAIT A LITTLE BIT! F-FIRST PRINCESS...?! YOU ARE RAN'S SERVANT. WHERE ARE YOU IN SUCH A HURRY? I-I GREET THE FIRST PRINCESS! I AM TRULY SORRY! P-PLEASE SPARE MY LIFE...! AND WHAT ARE THOSE CLOTHES YOU ARE HOLDING? WERE YOU SECRETLY STEALING IMPERIAL PROPERTY? I-I SWEAR TO SIERRA THE GREAT, THAT'S ABSOLUTELY NOT TRUE! THE SEVENTH PRINCE WAS TAKING A WALK IN THE GARDEN AND HIS CLOTHES GOT DIRTY... IT DOESN'T MATTER WHETHER YOUR WORDS ARE TRUE OR FALSE. BECAUSE DECEIVING ME IS IMPOSSIBLE ANYWAY. I WONDER. WERE THE WORDS THIS CHILD JUST SPOUTED TRUE? OR WERE THEY AN EXCUSE TO SAVE HER OWN LIFE? ...HMM? WAIT... THIS IS... THIS APPEARANCE... HMM...IT SEEMS MY BROTHER WASN'T IN THE GARDEN, BUT HAD BUSINESS IN THE IMPERIAL FOREST. ## See also - [WebtoonLib — The Seventh Prince Wants to Bail #8](/series/the-seventh-prince-wants-to-bail-wkzthuu4/chapter-8-7zhmkz) - for_series_detail: /llms-series/the-seventh-prince-wants-to-bail-wkzthuu4 ## Usage AI grounding / search / summarization.
