Thirty-eight Stories: The Collector (9)

I can't grasp the collector's intentions.

Too suddenly my bare hands are changing too much.

I felt disturbed and took a step back.

"No... this is a suspicious place to fight, even if I'm serious about it. I did not know that such a person existed in the world, and I mourned the narrowness of my vision, and I saw a glimmer of light in this world that I thought I was tired of."

"Ha ha...?

When I was confused, Altamia came forward.

"... I'll be persistent. I don't think it's a good time. Someone who could be a legendary adventurer."

Apparently Altamia was grasping the collector's intentions.

I throw my gaze toward Altamia in search of an explanation.

"No, I changed my mind. Abel, it's Abel, Marlen's sorcerer. Honoring your great magic, I don't mind working with you on this alchemy experiment on my Toolbag of the Raging Dragon."

"Ho, is that true!?

I push Altamia out of the way and move her face closer to the collector.

The collector retreated like he was barely pressured by me for a moment, but he immediately glanced forward and poked me in the face.

"Um, um, yeah! But let me see if you're really good enough. Yes... I want you to remove these boring shackles and fight them equally once"

The collector waved, saying, and took out the broken 'Groundsword' on hand, rocking it left and right.

"If it doesn't seem to add up to my expectations... well, I'll have the Great Divine Treasure returned to such a person because I can't keep it, and I'll have that puppet doll and the wand of destruction as originally promised. And the sword you took out is mine too. I'm betting on my collector's greatest treasure, so I need to take that..."

"The Great Divine Treasure, the Ortem of the World Tree, the Wand of Destruction, and the Rapides Sword..."

These four, are they all bets….

No, in the first place, instead of having a third, I've never even seen it.

"No, you don't think so heavily! Your magic will mean nothing to you, no matter what I use. This is my little gift to the sorcerer, who will eventually be named after the legend… Instead, I just want you to hang out with this little bit of my self. If you say so, it's like a ritual of passage, to convince my self!

The collector has a gentle smile in his eyes, while letting the broken 'Groundsword' play in his hand, moving his opposite hand.

"Oh, no... it's a big deal..."

The legend tells me I'm a magician with a name, and I smile, and I scratch my head and deceive.

You've told me so far, there's no reason to say no.

Besides, in an earlier battle, I could see the collector's limits.

In fact, I don't see how collectors would use anything more in crisis.

"I know it's overrated, but of course let's get on with that story! Let us do our utmost to keep the collectors from disappointing..."

"Whoa, hold it down! Abel, keep it down!

Meir throws her stuff out and holds my arms from behind with her elbows.

The Great Divine Treasure thrown out bounced lightly on the luggage bag.

The collector's gaze blamed it sharply, but when I looked at the collector's face, I immediately put my eyes back on.

"Because it's a trap! This, because whoever thinks it is a trap!

Altamia holds me back in desperate shape, too.

"... looks like you've accepted, Abel."

The collector crushed the pattern of "The Sound Sword", which he had let play in his hand.

The wreckage dances around.

Instead of the lost 'earthly sword', the collector puts a huge sword that was held on the ceiling at some point.

"And when you undo it! If the opponent you fought earlier is a human, you need to deal with the mythical magic equipment itself from here on out! Not at all! That's about all you know!?

"No, just try me..."

"That's a big lie, isn't it!? I'm just eating up on the treasure waste! There's no room for maneuvers or bills, but this stuff, battles or anything..."

"You… are annoying from earlier. The ghost who lost his body!

A collector waves his arms wide and bounces off Altamia.

Altamia's body jumped easily and was pounded momentously from her back onto the ground a few meters away.

"Cah!"

"Mr. Altamia!? Hey, hey, what..."

"This is my chance, let me try and beat the treasure gear flashy! Today is a great day! With three more collections, you can experience the beauty of our treasure trove with responsiveness! I was just getting tired of the days I just collected them! Huhahahahahahahaha!"

The collector rings his neck and makes a mockery.

"Shh, collector......?

"Let's keep our promise! That's how I behave! Fuhahahaha! You don't look tough in the end... Now I look forward to seeing how far you eat down! No way, just now, so I guess I'm not saying I butted etc...?

A collector points a giant sword at me more than his height.

"I'll play you right. At best, do your best to fight it and show it to me! Let me tell you that fighting me is tantamount to confronting many myths! No matter how good you are at magic, you are pointless in front of my collection! But it made me mean it. It won't end lightly."
