Strange Grief Wants to Retire ~ The Weakest Hunter’s Hero Dream
288 Marine Crying
The church courtyard. It was a vast space paved with cobblestones, and the preparations were very confusing.
When I stepped in with Anthem, the followers wearing simple cloaks were excited, and I turned to Anthem with a favourable gaze, and looked at me secretly standing next to me and returned to my true face.
Anthem is a source of pride for the churches in the Imperial Capital.And for some reason, I'm not a frivolous friend with that ansem.Besides, if Anthem always leaves me alone, I won't be able to turn my gaze to favoritism.
Well, Anthem and I are close, so we're not blameless, but... we're totally dressed in the prestige of our people.
There was a large magic circle on the ground, and the air was strangely clear.We are preparing to erect the barrier.
The more massive the ritual, the more meticulous the preparation.When I was still following Hunt, I knew that Anthem was using a barrier technique.
In the vast courtyard of the church, there were several figures of the Light Spirit Church, the Imperial Knights, and hunters.When I looked closely, there were some familiar faces.
I said, slapping Ansem's knee standing next to me.
"I'm looking around on my own, so you can come if you have business to do."
"............ umu"
Anthem is poor in assertiveness, but he is familiar with childhood, so he largely knows what he is thinking.
His sense of responsibility is strongest in Ghost of Mourning .Rock will not be a danger to the church grounds, and it is not my intention to interfere with his work.
Anthem headed toward the center of the square.I lifted my arms wide and took a deep breath. [M]
The church seems to wash its heart just by being like this.
Observing that the preparation was gradually progressing in the mood of sightseeing and mountaineering, I suddenly heard a low voice.
"!? Cu, Cui, why are you here!"
Your body is twitching and moving with reflexes in your spinal cord.I looked in the direction of my voice in a hurry.
There were - Gark Welter, the famous branch manager of the Imperial City branch of the Explorer's Association, and Ark Rodin, who was on everyone's side.After that, Luke was perfect.
Gark and I met each other on the cleats where the Martial Emperor Festival was held, but it was a long time since we met Ark.Nearby, there are many aspects of "The Son of the Holy Spirit", of which he is the leader.
When Ark looked at me, his eyes widened. [M]Even though the people behind him are looking down on us, his proximity is truly worthy of the title of a brave man.I'll leave the matter unanswered for you when you want it.
Even from the top of the mystery, I nodded and raised my hand enthusiastically.Looks like there's something good going on today.
"It seems that Garg-san, Ark, and everyone else are in line..."
Mr. Garg's eyebrows twitched.I haven't done anything yet this time, so I'm not going to get down on my knees.
I don't usually come to such a dangerous place, but this is because I trust Anthem.
Mr. Gark tied his lips tightly and said nothing, but for some reason he was pulling his cheeks and scowling at us.
So I suddenly came up with something and hit my hand.
"I've always been here since I got the call, but today I came before I got the call!"
"Huh!?"
Is this some kind of arithmetic conspiracy?
Mr. Gark approaches me with a hard-boiled smile as he pulls his cheek.
The gaze that was thrown from close range seemed to be enough to kill people.Mr. Gurg says in a heavy voice to me, who inadvertently takes a step back.
"Klee, oh, you... what are you going to do now?!"
"......... eh?... no, I just came to see Anthem's work."
Most of the time, I don't do anything."If they say it's bad that you haven't done anything, then that's it..."
I can't help it this time. [M]
Mr. Garg puts his hand on my shoulder as I stretch my spine, and he says in a slurpy tone.
The tone seemed to be distracting, but it was the killer's eyes.
"Cry, no excuses."I'm asking you what you're going to do now.Look, this is-- this is a case, this is a case, but it's not stylish.The opponent was different from the usual opponent, it was a [curse].You see, the church is at a level where it asks for help in its exploration.Thus, the ark was called back after being forced to do so.It's not just a curse, it's a terrible weapon.At that time, thirteen church officials sealed it in exchange for their lives. "
"...... I might like to know the route to recall the ark after doing so."
I would like a direct common sound stone if possible.Well, even if I tried to give it to them, the party members, Isabella, would stop me.
And thirteen men sealed in exchange for their lives.
………………
Branch Commander Gark is quietly intimidating us.Is it because this is the church?
When I seriously thought about giving up on my seat under the pressure of even the actual weight, the ark came in.
"Well, Branch Manager, I think he has a reason..."Besides, there were a lot of high-level hunters.I've only ever counted the opponents of the curse...... Isn't that right, Kry? "
"! That's right, Ark.
This is it. This is the ark. Welcome back, Ark!
As usual, both the inside and the outside were handsome.Isabella and the others sighed deeply at me who replied with a smile without thinking.
"Ark-san, even though you've been wiping it off, you're spoiling this guy too much..."
"No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.Arnold's opponents, the Emperor's escort, the fox's opponent, and even the Martial Emperor's Festival were all taken care of by me. "
"Oh, I see... that was a big deal."
Ark makes a bitter smile. When I think back, you keep telling me there's no ark, me.But I had no choice, because there was no Ark."I can't say I'm here without Ark..."
I'd like to put it in the Ghost of Mourning , but it's quite difficult because another party can be a benefit.In the meantime, please continue to give me your best wishes.
Once Anthem and Ark were together, this request for cleansing was a success.However, it was only when we had the strength that we felt guilty. Let's face it.
Banbin patted his shoulder friendly and said:
"I have quite a lot of power for this spell purification, but it's a troublesome opponent from my point of view, so don't be alarmed!"
………………
Inspired by my inspiration, the bright ark's expression always stiffens.Garg-san's eyebrows twitched and twitched, and the mafia stared at me with a pale expression.Isabella and Yu had a similar reaction.Even though it's light advice, it's too reactive and I don't know what to do.
There was an unpleasant silence.As if Mr. Gark were to wipe out the air, he said it with every word and effort.
"This time, this operation will be carried out in the church, based on detailed calculations."The level of the guru was higher than it used to be.In addition to the weakening of the curse over time during the seal, the depth of the curse is assumed to be considerably higher, and a plan is planned. "
That's...... perfect. There is no longer any reason to fail in purification.Moreover, if I'm not lucky, I'll be perfect.
But I don't know what's going to happen in the world.
…………
"Ah, ahaha... oh, I'm just kidding... I'm just kidding"
Immediately surrender to the pressure of your gaze.
I'm used to being hostile, but I can't stand being seen by Ark anyway.
Gark and Ark look at me for a moment as I temporarily take a break from my hardboard and try to mislead me.
When Mr. Gark opened his mouth and took a step forward, he heard a frantic voice.
"Niisan!? Why are you even out here...... no way, niisan?"
No, hello, hello.
Look at the way your voice sounds. It was Lucia who came into the church.
I didn't hear anything, but did she do what she asked?As he approaches us with a run, he stares at us.The expression was no less serious than that of Gark and Ark.
For the record, Lucia is in a hurry to call me brother.During the rebellious period, she seems to call me her brother as a sharp leader as much as possible, but it seems that old habits remain.Well then... you're in a hurry, aren't you?
Lucia had a familiar face behind her. Star Thunder (Starlight) and other Footsteps of the Beginning mages.
Lapis, the leader at the forefront, frowns gracefully as he comes forward.
”Hmm... it seems like [Chikamami] is going to be a very troublesome project... to be on the battlefield all the time......”
"Yowaningen!! I'm listening to you!"Even though the Martial Emperor Festival is not yet over, it seems like you can do whatever you want from time to time! it's nothing.... "
As usual, Chris looked at his face and bit him.Unusually, the other members of the Star Thunder (Starlight) seemed to be together today, and everyone was looking at Kurus with a vision.
It feels like a bargain to have so many spirits with such a beautiful appearance. It's never bad for me to get along with the Star Thunder (Starlight) ®, but only Lapis and Kriss have an intimate relationship with me.
"...... it's unusual for the Lapis to come out for such a job"
Spirits are basically free people.It doesn't mean authority, and it doesn't mean being tied to people's fences.
In response to my question, Lapis snorted as if he was stunned.I really envy that each casual trick becomes a painting.
"Witchcraft is our specialty."The curse of a person is equivalent to a child's play when compared to the curse of a spirit man.I wouldn't say no if Lucia asked me for advice. "
Yowanningen, you don't know the legend of the cursed Crimson Spirit Stone!
"Sensei asked me for help... I didn't think I'd have a leader... because Sensei is full of things about the Black World Tree."
I see...... Lucia pulled me in.
And the Lapis seemed to get a lot more rounded.He hasn't been a bad man for a long time, but he should be able to blend into human society if he can show his strength to the church in this matter.
"Ah, the legend of the Spirit Stone of the Curse."That's it, that's it.... "
"...... Yowanningen, if you don't know, don't look weird!"
There are some things in the world that you shouldn't know.
The wind blows everywhere, and Lapis says with a sad expression.
"The recovery of Spirit Stones has been our pity for many years."This is one of the reasons why we came out of the woods.I thought the curse was solo this time... but I guess it was different.Spirit stones are beyond human control. "
By the way, Eliza said she was wandering to find something, but maybe it was the same thing.
Finally, Lucia coughs up a small cough.
"...... I-It's fine....... Anyway, Leader, please don't just bother me."
Well, you don't have to tell me that.I mean, I've never tried to get in the way before... "
But this time, you're a really luxurious member.I feel the will of the Light Spirit Church that it will never fail.
When I thought about it, a few times a frenzied voice resounded.
"Ku, Krai Andrich...!? Why are you here, I'm calling you!"
With a large number of knights and countless believers gazed at her, she recently came in with some kind of fated face.
It was as if I had seen a ghost.
Equipped with well-polished, unified armor, the faces had a different order than the clean air of the church.
"Ah...... Mr. Franz. How do you do?"
Damn it... I called out casually because of my habit when I contacted you with the consonant stone.
When Franz approached me, I checked my surroundings lightly and suddenly shook my collar.
"What kind of wind is it to come out directly!?"What the hell is going on!?Ah!? Is this a prophecy curse?!Spit it out, spit it out! "
The Shake Attack is one of the few attacks where the barrier fingers cannot penetrate.I thought I was shaken by nothing. [M]
Apparently, I didn't mind doing it, but it was really a terrible reaction.If I thought you wanted me to come, I would complain about what you were doing. What do you think I am?
For some reason, no one helped me when I was shaken. [M]Not only Ark, but also Lucia and Krus, all of whom were shocked by the fact that they were able to help.
Shit... I'm getting sick. I'm flying.
“Commander Franz, it's time for the meeting.”
"...... Shit. [Chi Chi Chi Van Van Van Van Van Van Van Van Van Van Van Van Van Van Van Van Van Van Van Van Van Van Van Van Van Van Van Van Van Van Van Van Van Van Van Van Van Vun Van Van Van Van Van Van Van Van Van Van VIncluding the events of the Magic Sword and the Magic Academy! "
Releasing herself, she was about to collapse. She grabbed Lucia's staff and managed to regain her position.
I just came to see it, and I was in terrible trouble.
"Mr. Franz, do you have a grudge against me?"
“He deserves it, and most of his recent stress is about Yowaningen!”
…………
Tsuyonouble poked his arm, and Lucia blamed me with her silent gaze.
I'm Lucia's brother and Anthem's best friend!?At the same time, Liz and Luke were both best friends, and I felt like I had no choice but to keep an eye on them.
Mr. Garg scratches his head in shame.
"Come on, let's go talk too."This operation is church-led. "
C 'mon, c 'mon, c 'mon
"...... you're going too!"
I've been told what's going on all over the place... but I don't know if I can help it.
If you don't listen, you may be in danger if something happens.
It's okay, but I won't say anything.
"Come on!"
§
The Imperial City church was once rebuilt to the size of the Ansem.The auditorium chosen for the conference room was high enough to accommodate Anthem, and there were special seats.
It was a result of Anthem's strong healing power and his prowess as a Paladin.
I don't know that much about it, either, because it's not a hunter's activity, but it seems that he played a remarkable role in an incident involving the church's top executives' relatives.
He doesn't talk much about himself, so when he sees a great career like this, he feels proud and relieved, and I have to work hard. I won't try.
The operation meeting begins solemnly. [Marine Cry] The purification plan seemed to be very logically assembled based on the numerical values.
The curse was born of strong thoughts.It is known that its power depends on the situation and the ability of those who are mindful of it, so it is prone to unexpected events, and the power tends to diminish with the passage of time.
The power of the Light God's Seal Magic was originally used to seal spells and purify weakened places.
The plan of the church was to deduce the strength of caution placed in the curse from the scale of the damage caused by "Marine Cry" in the past, and to use the experience of dealing with many curses over time as an analogy to the power remaining in the curse, and to strike with more strength than that.
However, due to the nature of the spell, I was able to gather a lot of power, and it seems that I had enough power to suppress it even if my power was not reduced at all.
It was refreshing to hear about the detailed surgery, but it seems that there is no irrelevance.
I was wondering what would happen when I first heard that the curse prophecy would unseal and purify the curse, but I see that the country accepts the operation.
If I summoned Ark, Lucia, and Lapis, I could no longer imagine that they would fail.Well, I guess we don't need any more strength."Even if I call Luke, the curse won't be broken..."
After finishing the explanation, the elderly priest who sat on the upper seat - the priest who oversees the church in Zebuldia, the Imperial Capital, who is cared for by Anthem, shouted.
It was like a man with a gentle gaze reminiscent of the surface of the water.He looks like he can't even kill a bug, but I hear he was originally a good knight.
"This time, the church prepared a first-class magician."With the help of the Knights, the Explorer's Association, and the Mage Academy, I don't think there has been a single purification failure.Is there anything that bothers you? "
Somewhere in the voice there was a sudden resounding, a resounding peculiar to those engaged in the priesthood.
A little reminiscent of Sora, the Shrine Maiden of the Fox God, but he won't be bored.It was different from Sora, the shrine maiden.There can be no objection.
Nodding without thinking about anything, Franz stood up suddenly sitting on the edge of the wall on his left hand.
In myriad gazes, I often speak in a passing voice.
"The flow is good." But... I want to add more personnel. "
"...... As I presented, I prepared a member that greatly exceeded the expected strength of the spell."Is there any element of anxiety? "
Father narrows his eyes and looks at Franz.The gathered gurus of the Light Spirit Church are also struggling with unexpected words.
As expected of you, Franz, it's hard to raise your voice in this air.I had no idea, but was there a hole in the plan?
Franz stared at us with a deep smile at the words.
"What's so trivial about it... it's a bit of a noise right now."If any more trouble happens, even as Zebuldia, it's very troublesome. "
