Strange Grief Wants to Retire ~ The Weakest Hunter’s Hero Dream
91 The Mourning Ghost Wants to Retire ③
The majority of this world is made of elements that I can't help.
It was for one thing that my buddies worked hard to get to the level of being certified to level 8.
I am already incompatible with my status and abilities. [M] It is also difficult to meet what is required.
So I guess we're going to continue to rely on our people, like Liz, Citrie, or Ark.
All I can do is work my people back from such a battlefield.
Prepare herbal tea and chocolate.
I buy a cake from a famous western confectionery store and then even try to put it up in a candle. It seems to be a gift, and the good champagne is cold.
The tension rose, and Eva looked at me as if I was stunned as she started decorating the Clanmaster's room.
"Welcome back, how about hanging a belt called Arc?
"... I thought we should stop stirring up... that's right, Mr. Ark. But the depth of nostalgia isn't infinite, is it?
"No, it's infinite."
I didn't stir it up later. I just want to convey my sincerity. I just want to convey my passion for masks.
And I want you to sell it for a cheap price, if possible. I'd be happy to sell it to you for about a million geels. That would not be a problem to borrow from the operating expenses of the clan. Can't you?
"Yes, if you prepare potions that work for mental fatigue as well as tea -"
"... did you ask for such a big deal?
Ark didn't quite come home.
Miss Eckler liked the arc. It shouldn't have been that much of a burdensome favor, but maybe I'm being welcomed by the Gladys.
If you don't come home today, it's ruined. Whatever the champagne or chocolate, the cake has a short expiration date. It was a completely unthinkable action, even though I had put up a candle.
"It's too late... Mr. Ark should be able to handle most of this."
"Well, that happens."
The look on Eva's face when she's ready gets a little cloudy.
Naturally, I did a favor while I was busy. I'm so sorry for all the inconvenience I've caused you.
I finished decorating and was out of hand so it takes me to assemble the puzzle again.
I don't know why I bought a white puzzle... it was also an act without thought. Hard boiled, I guess?
It's frustrating because I have to check each and every total win. Is this really missing pieces?
"... Um... can I help?
"No, I'm fine."
I can do just about any puzzle I want. It's not even as meaningful an action as asking a busy Eva.
Facing the puzzle with a sense of reality escape, Liz and the others headed back for the golden measure.
When you open the door in complete disregard of the rules, you look at the clanmaster room in a different shape and let your eyes shine.
"It's just, well, Klee! Huh? What? Party?"
"That was fast. I'm waiting for Ark to come back. I did you a little favor."
"I'm back now, Mr. Klee. … oh, is it the usual"
What is it all the time...
Then came the citrie, who was carrying him, trying to get the big bag down there to his desk, and he sees the puzzle and puts it on the floor. There is the sound of metal rubbing against each other.
He said it was a golden measure, so he thought he was definitely heading to the treasure hall again, but that's not what happened.
Citrie has smiled and reported.
"I've earned 110 million geels! Now we can fill Lucia's account!
"Huh!?............... how?
The sense of money is paralysing, but 110 million geels is a lot of money. It's very helpful to be able to make up for it, but it's not the amount you get feeling like you're going for a walk.
To my question, I answered as quickly as if Citrie and Liz were competing for the handles.
"It's okay. I followed the rules and did it well. It's a dump where no one gets unhappy."
"He's been letting the countrymen who sold us the fight! It took longer than I expected, but it just did! Damn, if you come to this Imperial Capital, come say hello to Klee properly!
"Yeah, yeah, right."
It's gorgeous. Anyway, I feel like I can't deal with both of them.
Wait a moment for the two of you to settle down and ask.
"In short?
"The drunken awakening I created to combat the intoxication potion sold for 110 million geels! Even though it's level 7, the resistance system seems to have been strengthened sweetly."
"No matter how high the level, you're a country man, aren't you? I want to be level seven, too, but I don't even have to be level seven in the country. Hey, hey, Klee, you got something?
Drunk awakening is 110 million geels...... is that a legitimate business?
I'm not sure, but some highly effective potions are incredibly pricey, so, well, if it's Citri's specialty, maybe it's an unlikely story.
I think I'll become an alchemist and sell drunken awakenings too...
"And then, finally, I've dropped my thunderdragon request. Seems like the other side wasn't going to take it either...... thunder dragons are really expensive, and it's no problem, right?
"Oh, there was such a story. Well, chicken tastes better, and I don't mind."
Eva's request was unexpected to me, and the chicken did taste better, as Citrine said, so no problem.
It's scary to correct memories. Maybe eating at the treasure house was the reason it felt delicious.
Both hands clasped together just because Citrie got my will.
"I thought I'd say that, and instead I've given you a request to hunt giant chickens (big chickens). If it's delivered, I'll cook again!
"Me chicken bastards tell me to hunt chicken!
Giant chickens are usually sold in butchers... It also lives in the wild, but it should have been a request for a Level 1 hunter to do it to earn a dime.
I had a lot to feel, but it was a hassle, so I stopped putting it in my mouth and just smiled.
It's not like Liz is pointing out something more belligerent right now.
"Uh, it was a lot of fun. I'm sorry I couldn't be sure how strong level 7 is in the fog country, but sometimes this is a good idea. I can always beat you up."
Liz stretches her spine wide to contentment. The peeled, supple skin burned in the day stretches according to it. Somewhere the behavior reminded me of a cat.
I couldn't read the situation, but praised it because it was a praise-stretching doctrine. [M]
"You didn't hit me... great"
"If Sito didn't do anything extra, I'd hit him..."
"Well... Citrie, great"
Liz, I'm anxious to be alone, but I'm relieved I'll be a stopper when I set up with Citrie. Citrine puts her hand on her cheek in the light of my praise. [M]
But I didn't expect one concern about Lucia's debt to go away even though she hasn't done anything......
I feel the situation rolling in a direction that is convenient to me. Is it God?
"Something like that, and I was wondering if I'd stay at Klee's today"
"You're annoying Mr. Klee. Look, I'm going home, sister! Because I'll let you stay in our house!
How in a good mood, I take Liz, who laughs with a glossy look, so that Citrie pulls away.
I wish we were close. If there's a trick, I'd love to know.
§
It was not until late in the night that the Arch of Fate returned.
Dobbling and footsteps from the bottom as I was playing the puzzle with Eva after today's work.
It's very rare for that arc to break the rules of off-limits. In front of me and Eva with my face up, the door opens wide.
I opened my eyes unexpectedly to the way I came in.
Ark was worn out. The hair that is always in order is disturbed, the costume is unraveled there while returning to the battlefield, and the blood is seeping.
I can't even afford the look on my face. Looking indoors with sharp eyes, he circled his eyes for a moment into the decorated clanmaster room.
Returning to me, I rang the cracker that was ready for prompt action.
Eva follows suit in a hurry. Ark will look like a pigeon ate a bean cannon. Coming in from behind, Ark is no better than a run-down party member.
I don't know what happened, but apparently something happened more than I imagined.
There is a word that facts are stranger than novels. I was used to unexpected accidents because my brain was so pompous and unlucky for how many minutes.
This is the first time Ark has had a run-down level, but he also knows how to deal with it.
When I stood up, I unleashed one of my few special moves - a sliding dungeon - in front of Ark's eyes, which was making my eyes black and white.
It was a carpet, so it slipped poorly, turning for a spin and in a ground-down position. If you want to score, out of a hundred, wouldn't that be about 120 points?
"I'm sorry. Ahhhhhh!
"Mr. Klee!?
I bow my head while satisfied with the formation of the dugout. I don't know if there's anything wrong with this one about the incident that occurred, but at times like this, I'll just keep my head down. There are no eyes but Eva's here.
Ark didn't say anything. Feel your gaze over your head, while fully rotating your brain.
What happened after all, that the arc, the most powerful and famous in this imperial capital, would be melted away?
His combat abilities are extraordinary among hunters. How strong is it, so extraordinary that no one can say that even members of the monstrously groaning Ghost can win one-on-one?
You might wonder if it's to that extent while they say it's the strongest, but the treasure hall you're attacking in the first place is above our party, and it's not an ordinary talent to be that strong even though there's supposed to be a difference in the mana material you're absorbing.
Such an arc melts away. If a monster appeared in Imperial Capital enough for Ark to fight as hard as he could, it should be a big case, so there's no such line. Considered to be the line where a monster appeared that Ark could not fight with all his might.
I mean, there's only one possibility.
I can always call you in an incredibly bad mood for a frank arc.
"... what, all of a sudden, are you bowing your head?
"The lady had a seizure, didn't she?
"... or eclampsia, because?
Bingo.
I'm sure Ark couldn't handle an adult against a lady trying to present a mask with a high nose.
I don't need it, Klee's happy, that's what I must have said.
Hearing that, the lady became grumpy and exploded her eclampsia. Ark must be worn out because he struggled to control the rambling lady.
A little monster who can't get his hands on any of the strongest arcs must have burned his hands at the opponent.
I lift my head and push the trembling arc away with momentum.
"I hope you don't get me wrong, Ark. I thought Ark would make it easier for me! No way, I didn't expect it to be that hard. I guess I didn't have enough words."
There was remorse and impatience in me.
It was my failure to anticipate that. [M] I should have told you not to piss off the lady.
But when you think calmly, it also seems like a story that the usual arc would be able to deal with without problems.
I'm pretty sure there's something wrong with me as a result of what I did, but I can't say there's nothing wrong with Ark.
"But, Arc. Don't you think it goes without saying not to piss off the lady?
"It's..."
"By and large, you have a brilliant magician at your party. If the lady is in trouble, you can use the Sleep Shackle (Hypnos Cage) or anything. I would instruct Lucia to do that."
Attacks and physical enhancements seem to be the main magic Arc can use, but his party also has a brilliant magician who has completed extensive surgical work.
Isabella Mernes, with her Northern, light-purple hair, hung her eyebrows in my words.
"Huh? You're telling me my technique is inferior to Lucia!? I used it! It didn't work!
"Uh... Oh, really... I'm sorry"
"Don't apologize!
"No... look, I'm fine. There are areas where everyone doesn't like it. I don't like it either. But you should repair the abnormal state system because it can be used at times of need. Because I'm going to talk to Lucia."
"Hey, don't comfort me!
Isabella tides her cheeks and steps on the estate waste.
I didn't know you couldn't put one ordinary lady to sleep who wasn't a hunter or anything...... I thought she was an excellent magician, but isn't that what it is?
I sighed deeply, reaching out and showing the decorated clan master room. I don't know what Eva looks like. She's standing there looking anxious.
"I couldn't believe it, I thought it was time to come home and wait. I've got cake, I've got champagne."
Seeing the glitter falling from the ceiling, the cleric Yu tells him as if he was frightened.
"Su, awesome decoration..."
"I decorated it from hand to hand. I'm having so much fun on the way... and some candles."
…………
"I'm sorry. I didn't know it would take this long... I thought Ark would be able to move things a little smarter."
I wasn't estimating the arc high. He had such a high reputation, and unlike me, he was proud of his reputation.
What makes you think I'll struggle with one lady?
Ark didn't say anything for a while with no expression on his face, but eventually breathed deeply.
"... Klee, you're - you're too short of words. I don't know everything."
"I'm sorry."
"I heard Master Eckler did something rude to you. He also warned me that it was a dangerous treasure. But still, Klee would have done a little better."
"I'm sorry."
"It's fine enough to involve me, but it's not good enough to involve an irrelevant ordinary person. It was you, the clanmaster, who set the rule of not bothering the average person."
I didn't have enough words. Good things went ahead. That's a good story.
I didn't mean to offend you at all, but I'm not talking about good because I didn't mean to offend you.
I reflected higher than the mountains and deeper than the sea.
"I didn't think it was going to be that important. Whatever Ark has to say, let's just get Ark involved as much as we can from now on."
You're not reflecting at all.
Isabella pulls her cheek and looks at me.
It is true that we are reflecting. No, you can tell me you're all over it.
But more than that, I was relieved that Ark wouldn't leave the clan.
Ark is one of my childhood friends. [M] It's not that we're fighting all the time, it's that we're friends who can stand fights. Because violent impulses explode if they are not regularly dissipated, Ark was the best opponent.
"So... so... in the end, did you get the example thing?
I don't know what to ask at this time, but I can't possibly not confirm it.
To my inquiry, Ark unleashed a leather bag that he seemed unhappy with. Catch it in a hurry.
"I struggled. I had a really hard time with that. It was hard to seize Master Eclair, who holds the sword and storms it. The speed of the blow was out of step, and he was fine with his power beyond the limits of his flesh. I managed to pull it apart, but what the hell is that? He didn't wear anything, he jumped at me."
I hadn't heard about Ark since I was on my way. [M]
I feel like I even got a present for my birthday. I'm obsessed with untying the bag and sticking my hand inside. I opened my eyes like the arcs were a little.
Nostalgic, disgusting touch like a hand stuck in damp meat.
"Klee, that's dangerous, - and the far-fetched behavior..."
Raise the surface of the removed meat. It was supposed to be during this time that I lost it, but I miss it so much.
Blood vessels running forward on pink meat. Oh, how disgusting! Excellent! Excellent!
At that time, it began to move without touching its open mouth in front of me, which hardened with emotion.
"What a force. I thought I got some delicacies, but I didn't know there were warriors who could easily crack down on those who had already advanced. Well, who in this day and age is tougher than I remember, huh? We need to change standards."
!? Talking!?
I felt my hands tremble.
The "converting person" I had until this time was just a mask, and I didn't talk or move myself.
There is no such thing as a talking or moving treasure in my possession.
"Let it change - the... I'm sorry. Thank you for sending Ark."
From behind the door, a gentle familiar figure emerges.
But at that time, I was pushing a mask of meat against my face.
"Huh!?
Ark and the others cease to believe. I feel so uncomfortable in the back of my head. Apparently, it had a convenient feature that would hold the mask in place to keep it from leaving. Awesome!
"Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa."
The mask of meat barks. Then a voice echoes in the brain.
"Ko, this is - Muscle Strength E -, Agility E -, Health E -, Magic E -, Growth E -, Zero Motivation, Overall Rating, 7 points." Evolving Surface (Over Grid) ", activation criteria not met. Unforce. '
The mask trembles as if trying to get away from me.
The holes in his empty eyes droop just pitifully to him, and the strings like the tentacles that had fixed the back of his head drip down.
And my motivation. It was a step back. Sigh deeply and let go of your hand and the mask comes off naturally.
This looks very similar, but it's not "The Transforming Person (Reverse Face)"!
It's a scam! Shit, but it's totally unexpected that so many disgusting masks exist.
I feel like suing the developer who created the treasure. The developers would be residents of many previous civilizations, and I can't.
... will you put up with the fact that you've got a rare treasure?
"Degraded product, this was unexpected. Eva, prepare the glass case.... that, what's up?
Eva always looked at me with the look of Ark donning, which most of the time doesn't work, even if it's common. All the other members hide behind the arc, and the only Miss Ecclair standing next to her is blue and shudderingly trembling. I had tears in my eyes.
"... yes, no, nothing..."
"Oh, I forgot to ask. Can I have this?
"Ah, oh. I don't want it. It will! I'll give it to you! I tried to get my hands on the treasure you put your hands on, I was wrong! also, never again, never again! Forgive me!
Miss Ecclair shouts her voice out crying. Well, you don't need this looking treasure set.
But what a result of all this hard work.
A treasure collector is disqualified for misjudging treasure. This mistake will go deep in my memory and I'll take it to the graveyard.
I regained my mind, looked at my face, and laughed.
"Well, I ended up with the result of the shoulder watermark, but I prepared the cake because of it. Let's eat together. There's candles, too, right?
