Strange Grief Wants to Retire ~ The Weakest Hunter’s Hero Dream

Footprints of the Beginning The Clan House Lounge is famous among Zebuldia's treasure hunters.

Treasure hunters are a lucrative profession.Especially when it comes to the income of top hunters, it is not uncommon to earn a lifetime for the general public with a single hunt.

The clan house, which was manufactured with a wealth of funds and brings together some of the best young hunters in the Imperial Capital, is cutting-edge and a kind of yearning for young treasure hunters.It often coincided with the clan name that sounded like a beginner, and the eggs of newly registered hunters were the reason for fantasies about the job of treasure hunter.Perhaps the Clan Master thought of such an effect and built such a huge clan house in the first place of the Imperial Capital.

And of course, it was strangely sensitive that such a clan master had not appeared on the front stage before about the sub-clan master.

"The Clan Master wants to focus on something else for a while, so no one will take care of it.I understand the situation, but please take it back. "

Spacious Clan House Lounge.Eva Renfed, deputy Clan Master of The Footprints of the Beginning, said in an administrative tone to Gerk, who sat down in front of a large, sparkling table set in the center.

The director of the association branch who is still visible after retirement.There are a limited number of crying children who do not atrophy before the silent former "Senki".Not to mention the handful of ordinary people who barely smoke mana materials.

Eva Renfed is excellent. It turns out that she is not the only one who has cut up the clan as the right arm of "Thousands of Changes" to manipulate the situation, but Gerk knew very well that she has sometimes held on to Cry and supported both public and private.

At the same time, she has a certain stubbornness that does not move even if she decides once.Convince Clyde with Gark when he needs it, but if he decides not to take care of it, he will be threatened, but he will pay, but he will never take care of it.Perhaps that temperament is one of the reasons why Krei chose her.

Plus, unlike Klee, she's a sort of rationalist.It is also bright in the laws of the Empire and the rules of the Explorers' Association.In addition, if the opponent is not a hunter, the Explorers Association will not have authority.

All the staff I had already brought were mood to give up.Originally, Gerk didn't want to threaten with violence.

There are many Hunters in the Lounge who belong to Footprints.Whether the opponent is the Explorers Association's branch manager or not, the hunters don't shrink.Of course, even if there were no hunters like that, there would be rhetoric such as threatening ordinary people with violence.

"If Thousands of Changes were a little harder, Zebuldia would be doubled."

"If Thousands of Changes were a little harder, I'd be overworked."

To Gark's light mouth, Eva said with a serious expression without smelling.As he looked, Gark sighed small.

Gerk came all the way to the Clan House today to check on the progress of the incident at the Wu Emperor's Festival.

I wanted to discuss things in person if possible, but this time there will be no problem with the message.Nothing has happened.

The fact that "Thousands of Changes" does not meet means that it is judged unnecessary to meet face to face.Even if the opponent was just a hunter, he should have talked, but there was a track record of insight and reading closer to the future vision than the mythical scheme.Zebuldia also has a track record that cannot be ignored.

Two weeks after the martial arts festival.The destruction of the clandestine organization "Kuo no Shadow Fox" was proceeding more smoothly than Zebuldia and Gerk had imagined.

The opponent is a well-known organization with thorough secrecy.The Empire and the Explorers' Association have been secretly investigating and still have little information.No matter how countries came together to solve the problem, the names of the members of the organization and the base of activities are unknown, and there are few hands to hit.

The Gerks were preparing for a long war, but the situation was showing unexpected progress.

Some of the members turned the information back to Zebuldia as a souvenir.The person was not an executive, and the amount and quality of the information brought in was not so great, but the members of the organization who had not grasped the tail before turned against each other was a major change.

"I didn't think the Wu Emperor Festival was going to end like him."

…………

Eva shuts up about Gark's words.

Until now, "Thousands of Changes" has defeated standing organizations, thieves, and phantom exhaustion with odd tactics that do not seem to belong to the human.Regarding this incident, the figure was calm in the arena as opposed to the fox face, which is why Gark and the others did not enter the scene immediately and watched.

This led to a delay in the initial movement and a missed fox face, but this is a strange story in the first place.

If you don't want to escape in the first place, just leave someone on the escape route.There were thousands of warriors there, including Luke and Liz.

The arena has boundaries and limited escape routes.If Krei, she wouldn't have noticed that much, and even if she had absolute confidence in her strategy, she would have definitely placed people if she was a regular Krei.We need as many people as we can to catch the fox face.

Then why wasn't Clyde blocking the entrance and exit at that time?Were you looking for the former Wu Emperor and a large number of hunters in the venue?

There are holes in the escaped fox face.And yet, a survey of organizations that have made significant progress.

And Gark came to one answer.

What if it's all part of the plan?

Suppose from where I missed the fox face to where the traitor was, what if Krei was on schedule?

The intruder who appeared at the Wu Emperor Festival would be in the executive class of the organization.There's no way I would have allowed you to escape.

But if it turns out to be good for us - wouldn't Thousands of Changes choose to escape?

The tissue that was the tablet is shaking.It is clear that the incident was triggered by the Wu Emperor Festival.

Activates a treasure weapon that could destroy the world.I'm sure that was unexpected for the organization.As a result, there were people who cut through the organization.

No matter how big an organization you're dealing with, there's no way you can deal with multiple countries at the same time.Angry Emperor Radrik Atlum Zebuldia has the momentum to solemnly clear the nobles who are no longer cooperative.

Few people know the truth about the martial arts festival incident.Gark, the Empire, and perhaps even the Fox Face Man - only one person knows the truth.

So, one of the purposes of today's visit is to take out what was left in my pocket and put it on my desk.

Eva's eyes became round.Black stones with strange patterns were one of the most famous treasures.

"Sir Franz is keeping the sound stone.His secrecy goes on now.I want you to give it to Clyde. The fox extermination operation will be country-led, and we are still discussing what we can do about it - I want you to contact me if anything happens. "

Treasure hunters don't look good on the country, but they can't let go of their effective hands.

It's impossible for a nobleman to give a hunter direct access.This is probably a compromise that Sir Franz, who hated the Thousand Thousands of Changes, killed himself for the Empire.Krei would have been guilty of insult if he had made a mistake, but he is as critical as ever.

Eva stared down at the treasure for a while, but eventually nodded small.

"... okay, I'll give it to the master."

"The Imperial Capital will be noisy from now on..."

I've heard that a huge bounty has been placed on the neck of Thousands of Changes.Though Thousands of Changes have been fought and defeated by bandits, the amount spent this time is enough for the opponent to hit even a Level 8 Hunter.

Of course, I don't think that man will get behind so easily.Kri Andrihi was different from when he came to the Imperial Capital to become a hunter.

He got stronger. It doesn't seem to change at first glance, but we can't allow ourselves to be defeated in today's Thousand Thousands of Changes until we have organized, trained our allies, gained trust - and a war against the Fox has begun.

Kri Andrihi's defeat leads to a loss of morale.Put your arms together, and Gark keeps going.

"Eva, there is a possibility that bandits targeting Thousands of Changes will harm your clan staff.Be very careful. "

"That's... not to mention it now.It is packed with hunters, and the upper floors were originally constructed under the direction of the master when the Clan House was built.So that you can escape while your hunter is fighting on the first and second floors.Fortunately, it hasn't been used yet. "

"... I see. I've thought about it from the outset... more than hiring non-combatants. - I've thought about it."

It is more difficult than words to think of the powerless as the powerless.As with the Explorers' Association, it cannot be said that the safety of its personnel is fully preserved.

Not to mention that there was a rebellion from the hunters who gave the money, such as putting money there. It seemed that they did not normally think about anything and gave instructions firmly. It seemed that they were doing a clan master firmly.

"The protection is perfect. One or two floors aren't that much for three floors or more, but if you get caught up, it'll break anyway."

"How about that...?"

In the first place, The Footprints of the Beginning should belong to a clan with weak clan masters.Is it okay to include your Hunter in the Interceptor Force on your own?

For a moment, such a question passed his head, but Gark nodded loudly to convince himself.

As the head of the Imperial Capital Branch of the Explorers' Association, it is decided that the hunter should fight with the intention of dying so that ordinary people are killed or injured.The mighty must guard against weakness.It is also one of the purposes for which the Explorers Association was founded.

"If anything happens, contact the Explorers Association as usual.Let's do what we can. "

"Yes, thank you in advance."

Finish the conversation and stand up.

Gerk isn't free either.First of all, we need to find out if there are any fox hands among the Explorer's staff or their hunters.I had a headache just thinking about it.In the first place, it was Gark's experience as a charisma and hunter that made him a branch manager, and he was not good at detailed investigations.

After thinking about the work after returning to the branch, I sighed loudly and heard a familiar voice from the entrance.

"Ah, Eva, here I am - I am a customer who is coming today... Ah, Mr. Gark!?"

"!? Mr. Krei!?"

It was Kri Andrihi, the master of the "Footprints of the Beginning", who had been refused a visit earlier, who made his face exhilarated from the entrance to the lounge.

Eyes meet eyes and silence spreads into the lounge.The Explorer's men, too, rounded their eyes to Cry with a nasty smile that appeared.

Anything else... Concentrate? Nobody told you to pick it up?Besides, what did he say?

Eva is also looking at the gark in trouble.If the person who refused to see you shows up, how could she be such a smart-armed Deputy Clan Master or such an expression?

Clyde frowned and approached looking around.

"What, were you talking to Eva?I'm sorry, but I have an important customer coming today... "

…………

You're the one I came to see.

When I tried to yell at him, the lounge glass bounced and flew.

Glass pieces glitter.Although it was a long time since I retired as a treasure hunter, Gerk's dynamic vision clearly captured what jumped in through the window.

Stand fast.

It was an arrow.Long, thick golden arrows.

The arrow penetrated the lounge window as if nothing had happened and pierced her forehead as if she were being sucked in.

And then, as usual, I was hit by a thick wall.

"Huh!? What?"

Cry's voice felt no pain.

Behind Krei the stick, the hunters of the party in the lounge quickly entered the fighting situation in the peace that was suddenly broken.

"Hmm!? What is it!? Liz!? Luke!?"

Raid!

Absolute defense of Thousands of Changes.

I can imagine that Kri Andrihi, a treasure collector, has a knuckle knuckle, but the assailant is also considering it.

Cry picks up the fallen arrow and looks around like confused.A fat arrow that could blow the neck of a Phantom Beast.The lid was sharp - something like a black box was enclosed.

Bounding fingers are strong, so countermeasures have been taken.The basics of an assassination are a two-shot special.

In these cases, the price for the arrow is fixed. Thousands of Changes Of course, Gerk stood in front of the men he came with and shouted a warning.

Kri, it's a bomb!

"!? Mr. Gark, pass!"

"Ahh!?"

With a soft voice, Clyde swings and throws an arrow at the gark.

Completely false, the arrows are spinning and slipping on the floor.Clyde jumps in a smooth motion like scheduled harmony and hits her to protect Eva.

"Ahhhhhhhhhhh!?"

No way, this is the customer!?

Assemble arms and take defensive stance.Heat and shock blew off the whole body of the gark as it turned white in front of me.
