Isekai Tensei no Boukensha
Chapter 12-8 Cannon
"I wanted to be slow in my room..."
"I don't know how. It's only natural for a guild to want you to report it from a party."
Using a pre-construction report of ill health, he asked the three Lyons and their escort, the nominal puller (Chris), to report to the Alliance. But the Alliance chief decided he needed to talk about me fighting directly to certify it as an emergency, and he was summoned quickly.
"Well, I'm glad you got me a wheelchair... my butt hurts, this"
Even as a guild, you call me in because you say you're ill and you say no, so I guess it's natural to arrange carriages and prepare wheelchairs, but unlike those from previous life, tires are not rubber, and there's no trick to absorb shock, so I put the demon fur in the bag on the seat and back, but it only had a resting effect.
"Here it is..."
When I entered the guild and spoke about the requirements at the reception, I was immediately led to the guild manager's room, but the receptionist who responded to it was always in a mood. I don't know why, but the moment I opened the guild door and had my eyes, they made me look at something very unpleasant. But the receptionist was only available there, so I had to talk to the receptionist who looked disgusted.
"Guild Leader, I've brought you"
"Thank you. Please, come in."
"Uhm. Here I come, Yuri (...)"
The man, called Yuri by his grandfather, smiled and shook his grandfather's hand, then offered me his hand.
"Long time no see"
"Yeah, hasn't it been like six years?
I met Yuri six years ago... since Kukuri village negotiated with me for rescue when he jumped into the guild when he was attacked by a herd of zombies led by dragon zombies.
"It was good until Kukri Village, when I took the rescue troops...... some adventurers panicked at the amount of zombies. Fortunately, no one was seriously injured, as most zombies were just wandering aimlessly. However, when the story spread that there was a dragon zombie, some people tried to escape."
The majority of the adventurers who tried to escape returned to me with the voices of their companions and acquaintances, but some of them fled as they were and were to be punished at a later date?
"Guild Leader, Tenma's not feeling well, so finish the requirements quickly."
"I'm sorry about this. So, that's what Master Lion says, and can you do it quickly? And Kanon (...), you stay here and keep a record."
"… Copy, Guild Leader"
The receptionist who had guided us so far reluctantly accepted Yuri's instructions and prepared a desk a long way from where we were sitting.
Albert and Cain seemed a little upset about this attitude of the receptionist, but didn't seem to put it to words because Lion didn't say anything.
Yuri had frowned at the receptionist like that, but first she thought Rich was first, leaving the receptionist alone to start talking.
"I see, 'I think I've hit Rich hard, but I'm not sure if I've defeated him', 'Rich's people, or possibly his subordinates,' are Tenma's and Merlin's views."
Some of the previously confirmed riches were called "King of the Necromancer" and other individuals who manipulated Andetto's demons as subordinates. So this time Rich also reported that there could be some distribution left somewhere.
"This is information I don't really want to make public..."
When it comes to demons manipulating Andetto's subordination on the Houst Borderline Berg Territory, it's because 'dragon zombies' that come to mind first. Even then, he released information that a dragon zombie appeared after the crusade was confirmed, but still there was a great deal of confusion, and several residents of Russell City left.
I dare to flush it this time.
When Mr. Yuri was troubled, he ran out of words that Lion would clearly release the information.
The reason is that even if you hide the information, if you send personnel to investigate, there is a danger that the hidden information will flow from somewhere, and he wanted to announce that Rich appeared in the name of the Borderline Uncle, rather than the hidden information flowing and discrediting the Borderline Uncle.
It's the opposite of Cain's expectations, but even if there are residents who will leave the Borderlands because of the announcement, it is Lion's decision to reduce the final wound because when the hidden information is uncovered, it is likely that the reputation will be reduced in return for the residents who will leave. Most importantly, I had to send a letter to Uncle Borderline to determine the matter, so there was still a chance that Cain would be as expected.
"As far as I'm concerned, if you're thinking about the future, you should do what Lion says."
"Sure, it might be easier to move later, clearly publicizing the dangers rather than hiding them poorly. Lion, you can use my name then."
When releasing Rich's information, I allowed it because I think it would be more positive material for the Borderline Uncle family if there was a sentence saying, "I (Tenma) defeated Rich, but there is a slight chance that he might survive."
"Getting permission from Uncle Borderline means staying in Russell City until that reply arrives, right?
"Well, I guess so"
If there is a haulier like Ted in Russell City, it may be possible to travel back and forth to Shelheid in a few days, but it would take twice as long if it were a regular fast horse. So I have to stay in Russell City for about two weeks.
"Snow... I hope it doesn't come down"
"Well..."
It was us who were going to have an unexpected stay in Russell City.
"Why me..."
The next day after Yuri's meeting, during her stay in Russell City, an ill-advised receptionist appointed as our guild liaison and caregiver was guiding the city with a small voice and stupidity from earlier.
"Tenma, do you really know nothing about her?
Cain comes to me whispering as he pushes the wheelchair, but he didn't know anything about me. Yesterday, Cain and Albert said they seemed angry at her attitude during the discussion with Yuri, but were apologized for without me. For once, the two of them accepted the apology, but they couldn't even ask why they had a bad attitude. The only thing I found out was that I was the only one she hated, and she seemed to transform herself into a very loving receptionist in my absence, and she seemed to have a good reputation from the accommodated adventurers.
"Cain... I don't know what to say to myself, but I'm not close to the guy, he's the one who keeps it to a minimum. At least I don't remember ever having a word with a half-elf woman since I was born. On the contrary, I don't even remember seeing it."
"Well, unlike Lion, I know Tenma isn't the kind of person who speaks to girls from herself... but it's not even something you say with your chest up, is it?
"Well, that's true."
"Or so I said, didn't you really get numbed and fail? So they hate you or something?
"No, I don't think Tenma would fail anyway, Lion... it would still be the most powerful thing to have bought a grudge where you don't know"
"I think Albert's right. For example, the younger Tenma is jealous of your work, the request you tried to take or failed, even if you succeeded, but I resent the resentment... but as far as the kid's usual reputation is concerned, I don't think it's likely."
Albert gives a sober opinion to the chattering lion. And Chris, who was collecting insignificant information, joined me in a conversation with Cain.
While we were in conversation, Grandpa walked around the city looking nostalgic and was gone at some point, and the other women, peering into the store and the open air, listened to our conversation… Especially at Lyon's "Napa" where three other people, other than Leni, pointed a sharp glance at me.
"Hmm... everyone's waiting for you, Mr. Cannon."
You noticed we were behind, and Mr. Cannon stopped a little while back.
"Hey, Tenma. Is she shaking?
"Looks like it."
"Didn't Lion get too nasty and scared?
"Hey!"
"I don't think you have that personality, do you?
Mr. Cannon was whispering something bumpy as he turned to speak in a low voice. Close to your eyes,
"You don't remember... do such a terrible thing to me..."
You didn't notice us in front of you, Mr. Cannon's whining was getting a little louder.
"Tenma...... you, did you nibble?
"I didn't do anything!
I followed Lion's words and denied them out loud. And that word seems to have been switched on,
"It's not like you didn't do anything! I can't believe you don't remember keeping me in that eye! You gotta be kidding me. Ahhhhhhh."
"Stoppoo!"
Mr. Cannon, who had been stuffed, flew away from the side about Amur's tackle in the position that he could reach me in a later step.
"Phew... good job"
The two men who flew with them burst into a shop where they were lined up with vegetables and fruits. And only Amur stood up, thumbs up with a good smile. I think I've seen something like Amur in a while, but I wonder what that behavior looks like for Leni, who also has a good smile and a thumbs up.
"Sorry, store owner. This is who I am. Now, this is the kind of guy that buys everything that's broken and lined up in the store, so put it away."
Albert immediately went to the two penetrating stores and talked to the man he thought was the manager. What I showed the man seemed to be the family crest of the Duke of Sanga and the House of the Borderline Uncle of Houst, and the man nodded again and again with a surprising look.
"Tenma, the impudent have taken over! And then put out the shilowmall."
The intact Amur came to me with Mr. Cannon on his shoulder, passing out.
"Oh...... thank you, Amur. Shiloumal, you can come out. Sorry, Solomon's waiting."
"Woff!"
Solomon was also about to come out following Shiloumal, but when a dragon suddenly came out all over the city, I didn't know how the unfamiliar people in Russell City would react, so I decided to make them wait in a dimension bag, just like before. Well, there were people screaming in surprise at the sudden appearance of Shiloumal, but when I immediately informed my surroundings that he was a safe demon in my family, I didn't have to be confused.
"Shiloumal, get down!
When Amur let Shiloumal lay down, he put Mr. Cannon on his back and began tying him with strings so that he would not fall.
"Tenma, go guild"
"... right, sounds like you should talk to Yuri"
You will have to speak to your manager, Guild Manager (Yuri), to ask why Mr. Cannon ran off. Everyone nodded at my thoughts and turned to the Alliance. With my grandfather completely forgotten...... I remembered after diving into the guild door.
"... well, okay"
The details will have changed, but you will be able to return to the inn once you know the general path, and you won't have to go looking for it because you may ask the city people and come directly to the guild.
"What's wrong, Tenma?
I replied to Cain pushing the wheelchair, "Nothing," and then I told him to call Yuri at the reception.
I was very surprised at the receptionist because I kept Mr. Cannon bracketed on Shiloumal's back all the way from the place where the noise occurred, but at the same time, it seems that I had a feeling that this would happen when I let him meet me because the voice "I knew..." was heard from among officials and adventurers.
"Now, Yuri... why don't you just wash up and throw up what you're hiding?
"hahaha......"
When I entered the Guild Chief's office, I looked at Yuri from the front and asked for a story about Mr. Cannon. Sitting in a wheelchair, I am shaped to look up slightly at Yuri sitting in a chair, but behind me are three idiots refraining, beside him is Chris, and even behind him is Amur, who is pointing bird feathers at the back of Kanon's foot, which is attached to Shiloumal's back.
"Chief Guild, what's this receptionist's attitude to Tenma? Russell City Guild… or Russell City should owe a great deal to Tenma. I don't really want to, but I'm also thinking about using my authority to hold the entire guild accountable for the punishment."
Lion even seemed to think about punishing other officials as joint responsibility, showing a tough side that was not always the case. Well, on the way home at the request of the Borderline Berg family, the economy of the Borderline Berg could fall again if the Alliance's officials tried (supposedly) to do harm by exorcising (defeating) the dangerous demons that were lurking in the Borderline Berg territory.
"... So let's talk about why she takes such an attitude to the best of my knowledge? It's gonna be a little long though."
Yuri began to talk to me to remind me why Mr. Cannon would only overreact to me.
And in conclusion, it turns out that it was Mr. Cannon's rebellion... but there was some feeling of sympathy.
"I didn't know there was such a contact between Tenma and her in the past..."
"Her attitude is not acceptable, but if you don't remember doing it, you might have no choice but to come with Katin."
"But it is. It wasn't Tenma who did it, it was Solomon (...), right? You can't help remembering."
"Either way, Tenma, you didn't impress me. She's worse."
"Um, Chris is right! Tenma's not bad."
"Right. I sympathize with you after that, but resenting Mr. Tenma would be a mistake."
This is what everyone's opinion was. Jeanne and Aura said nothing, but the women's conclusions were tight and the men's degree of sympathy was a little higher.
"When you ask me, you remember those...... what a team (...) were you to say?
"This is Roen Glynn."
Behind me, he said, "You don't remember!" I heard voices say something like that, but shortly afterwards the Lord of the Voice went quiet with attacks from left and right, so I ignored them and proceeded to talk to Yuri.
"Kanon was an archer in 'Roen Glynn' and hit 'Oracion' in the main battle with the team at the militant tournament, and he lost a lot"
Mr. Cannon was a player who fought in the team battle of the first militant tournament I ever competed in and was taken up by Solomon with his legs turned and dropped from above. The way he lost then became traumatic, and for a time he was unable to demonstrate his strength against lizard demons similar to dragons or demons flying in the sky like birds. They say it's improved considerably now, but in the meantime, the party broke up and Yuri invited me to work for the guild.
"Besides, both Kanon and members of the same team were beaten by you in qualifying for the individual match."
The members of "Lowen Glynn" said they were all in the personal battle as well, and what a threesome of them were out there, including Mr. Cannon, in the same set of qualifying rounds as me. It was quite a fortunate event, and he said all members were happy that if we fought together, one or so would win, and maybe we could have two. But while it was happening, it turned out to be an off-site loss due to my magic, and the other members lost in the qualifying round, so the personal battle for "Lohen Glynn" was over.
"In the next tournament, where I vowed to snowflake, I couldn't stand on the same stage as you in the loss of the qualifying round for both individuals and teams, and" Roen Glynn "was disbanded, and I couldn't even give him a chance, as if I were laughing at the canon that I intended to do next."
"Mmm!"
Why I disbanded them, they're all too eager to revenge on me, and they're starting to giggle even on a daily basis. The discrepancy exploded in the defeat of the second tournament, and they broke up in a fight less than a month after the tournament.
"Still, there's nothing wrong with tenma, is there?
"Mmmm..."
To Lion's doubts, Yuri was also nodding.
"Yes, that's a total rebellion"
"Mm-hmm..."
Mr. Cannon says he's Yuri's niece, and he wants to do something about the current situation that just upsets his mind when he hears words that come up close to my topic or 'Tenma' even on a daily basis. So, he saw my coming to Russell City as an opportunity, and he made us take care of him in hopes that he would improve by dealing with me... but that was the form behind it.
"Mmm!"
"Amur, that was annoying earlier!
Chris noted Amur, who had voiced weird voices many times during the conversation from earlier.
"Tenma. Kanon, I'm pretending to sleep"
In those words, we all saw Mr. Cannon at the same time, but Mr. Cannon did not make it microscopic in the same system as when he was transported here.
"No, you're still losing your mind, aren't you?
"I'm still losing my mind, it could be dangerous... so I'll make sure now. Now!"
It was the bird feathers that Amur had in his hand since earlier. So what do we do?
"Hey, hey, hey..."
As initially seen, Amur began to tickle behind Mr. Cannon's feet. And a few seconds after Amur started tickling,
"Fuhicha"
Mr. Cannon became intolerable. But Amur can't rest his feather-moving hands.
"Heh, heh, heh, heh!
Mr. Cannon's voice, unable to speak properly, gradually sounded colorful.
"Hey Amur... isn't it time for me to forgive you?
"Hmm?"
Among us (...), Lion, who had the reddest face, told Amur so, but Amur kept moving his feathers as he pretended to be troubled.
"Oh, I apologize! I apologize, forgive me!
"Amur, that's enough"
"If that's what Tenma says"
I just thought it was too much for a boulder and told Amur from me, Amur stopped tickling......
"Heb!
Shiloumal, reluctant to be rammed on the back, shook his body and tried to shake Mr. Cannon away. However, Mr. Kanon was firmly attached, so he never left, and instead, Mr. Kanon's foot hit Amur's face.
"Mmmm..."
Amur held his feathers in his hands in an attempt to fight back, but before that, Mr. Leni entered between them and opened Mr. Kanon from Shiloumar's back.
After Mr. Kanon was gone from his back and lightened up, Shiloumaru shook his body so badly, he fled to the dimension bag where the slurrins were waiting.
"Canon, what I said earlier about" apologies "is definitely about Tenma's attitude toward you, right?
"... Yes. Up until now my attitude has come from resentment. I will change it in the future…"
Kanon, who was in everyone's sight, bowed his head in recognition of what Yuri had said while sitting on the ground.
"But isn't it a little light just to apologize? Not to say I didn't do any harm, but I had as much resentment as I tried to grab, and I can't erase as much resentment as I was told, can I?
Cain and Chris nodded to Albert's doubts. I guess the three of them just know how to interact between nobles and can't be trusted with their mouths alone. Lion... seems oblivious to such things, and maybe he hasn't really thought about them before. For that matter, I guess Albert and Cain struggled.
"I apologize in front of the three of you for that. If Kanon does anything to return the palm of his hand, he can take responsibility for it and drop it on Mr. Tenma's slave."
Albert, Cain, and Lion admitted that they were innocent and apologized for it, so the next time they did the same thing, Mr. Cannon, who crushed the face of the noblemen, said he had no choice but to be left as a slave.
"But there's no slave to Tenma."
"Right. Tenma's slaves are treated too well, as you can see from those two"
As Cain pointed to Jeanne and Aura, they nodded and affirmed.
"If we're going to drop them into slavery, let's introduce them to the slave traders we can trust. But I don't know what's gonna happen from there."
"Right. Well, my face is fine, so I think the buyer will show up soon. But we don't know how that buyer's gonna handle it."
I also felt something black overflowing from both Albert and Cain. Mr. Cannon, listening to the two of them, is bluishing his face enough to make this one worried. And behind it, Jeanne and Aura, too, imagined a future in which they might have become, not as pale as Mr. Cannon's, but not as pale.
Did Mr. Yuri think he was feeling a little too well with his aristocratic opponent, or the next word doesn't come up. Chris and the women are also deciding that there was a problem with Yuri's statement, just watching, and I, too, don't pinch my mouth poorly because of the statement 'to my slaves' in the story.
"Don't you need to go that far?
While the room was dominated by a bad vibe, Lion entered between Yuri and me at the usual rate.
"Well, if you're going to apologize in the form of witnesses and still do harm to Tenma, I think we need to punish you for that, but don't we have to until we sell it to the slave traders? For example, I think it's a good idea to keep it with your mum, educate her, and let her work for the Knights."
"Well, if Lyon's responsible as a borderline uncle, we don't have to say any more."
"Right."
As much as I wondered what the remarks had been until earlier, the two of them pulled back lightly.
"At times, you can rest assured that Master Lion will take care of Kanon responsibly."
Yuri's was also a mild knoll as to what the tension had been until earlier.
Though questioning the three strange people in the condition, the end of the conversation led to the dissolution, after the guild, but on its way home,
"Lyon, you're getting weird because you don't get into the conversation fast!
"Right. I only wanted you to read the air at a time like this and don't shut up, I wanted you to be Rion as usual..."
"Wait a minute!
"No man. Leaving Lion alone. Shall we go home now?"
Cain pushed me in the wheelchair to the inn after a frightening rion.
