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

Gurg Welter, the director of the Imperial City branch of the Explorers Association, opened his eyes to the story of the clan house that he went out of his way to hear about the end of the incident around the prophecy the other day.

Level 8 Hunter, Chiwanmai . A man named Krai Andrich is a man who has been doing unexpected things ever since he first became a hunter.

This time I came all the way here because Krai took the curse and flew around the Imperial City in the carpet. No matter how many times you experience it, you will never get used to the unusual behavior.

But right now, the words that came out of Cry were enough to blow away all the intentions of this time.

After responding to a large number of inquiries from the state and aristocrats, and mobilizing a large number of hunters, the Explorers' Association is fully operational without a daily and nightly break, but all of that is over.

Kaina, the deputy branch manager who was brought with her, and the other staff were in shock.

"Yggdra...... the city of the legendary Spirit Man." As usual... it's a terrible thing again. It's a secret place without a branch of cooperation. "

Well, I have a guide for Eliza.

As usual, Cry shrugged his shoulders with a relaxed expression. Even though the childhood friend Luke was petrified by the curse, his attitude showed no agitation.

Invitation to Yugudra.

That was, "I'm sorry, but I can't listen to information or cooperate because I'm going to Yggdra." It wasn't like talking like this, or "I have guidance."

Originally, spirits tend to be exclusive. Ygdorah is a holy land for the Spirit, and none of the hunters has reached it, as Gaak knows.

There were many who aimed, but all of them failed. Since the spiritual royal family does not come out of the forest, there is no room for negotiation, and neither power nor violence can be used in front of the mysterious magic. There's hardly any information about the country out there.

This is an opportunity. Until now, there was no such thing as a spiritual royal family trying to meet. I can't imagine how profitable it would be if the interaction with Yugudra started due to this incident. And if it is known that it was the hunter who made it, the hunter's status will be greatly improved.

It was a great feat to appease the Spirit Stone of the Curse, but as an Explorer's Association, I had a better relationship with Yggdra. Exactly, no one can complain, it's a feat that everyone can understand.

“Very well. Improving the relationship with the Spirit Man will also be of great benefit to Zebuldia. We'll take care of the aftertreatment around the prophecy. Instead, negotiate firmly. If you can, ask me to set up a branch of the Explorers' Association."

"!! Branch. I can't help it...... I'll take care of this one."

Unusually, Klee, who always had a disgusting look at Garg's requests, nodded. Even though I was dealing with a very difficult Spirit Man, and even the Imperial Family, I could still afford it. Is it a place where you can show off your Level 8 skills?

"Show me the power of the treasure hunter!"

"I know, I know. This time, both the [Ghost of Mourning] and the Lapis would accompany me. I'm going to take a lot of treasures with me as well--"

"If you succeed, you will be king at level 9." Level 9 accreditation requires the nomination of multiple branches and approval from HQ, but they don't complain. "

In proportion to the rise in hunter status, the accreditation standards for high-level hunters are becoming more stringent. Especially at level 9, it is necessary to have more trust and merit than ability, and it is difficult to meet the conditions to take the level certification examination first.

It is unusual that you should be so young that you can reach it. Klee frowned at Gurg, who was naturally hot in his voice.

"Ah... yes, I'll tell you what, but I'm not going to Yggdra for that." The purpose...... is just to decurse Luke. "

I don't know if it's happening again... why isn't this guy so active in leveling up?

Level 8 or higher is not even a level that most hunters can see, but there is no willingness on the part of talented people who can reach it, so it's really the end of the world.

I would like to be accompanied by the Explorer's Association, but I had a sensitive issue with the Spirits. It doesn't necessarily mean that we don't get into trouble by putting in extra people.

Garg took a deep breath and pressed his wrinkles against his forehead as he stared into Cry's eyes with all his might.

"In this case, if we do not succeed, it will develop into a problem between the races." I'll take care of it. "

§ § §

Before dawn, I was in front of the main gate of the Imperial capital, Zebulia.

Even the metropolis of Zebuldia is quiet during this time. The people who walked outside were patrolling knights and early risers, and I usually got up around noon, so the landscape looked a little different to me.

In front of the gate, there was already a carriage inscribed with the symbol of the "ghost of mourning", the "skeleton of the wolf". It was different from the carriage I remembered, but [The Ghost of Mourning] would break the carriage so much that it would be turned down by the carriage insurance, so it would be worse now.

While stretching heavily, Lucia, walking next to her, was foolishly concerned about when Garg-san came.

"I'm really having trouble with Mr. Garg." I'm always trying to raise my level... "

"That's because... the leader is so stubborn that he won't take the test!"

Why does everyone care so much about the level of others? It is not enough for me to aim for retirement. [M]

Well, it's unfortunate that I was able to impose all the prophetic post-processing on Mr. Gark. I almost got mad at Franz again... he screamed his name on his own.

Citrix, standing near the carriage, approached Nikoniko.

"Good morning, Cry!" I'm ready to go. Luke-san's stone statue is also......

As usual. Even though it is still early in the morning, it is still slow. Behind him, Kill Kill carried Luke's Stone Statue, without any signs of physical recovery since he had become smart through fasting.

Luke also said that he was going to slash it in the stone statue, so maybe it would suit him.

Is the Holy Thunder of the Stars coming?

"Not yet. Well, it's still a little early, so... I was wondering if I'd come soon." Mikkun too... good morning "

In the words of Citri, Omimikun, who brings you behind me, hides in my shadow.

Apparently, Mikun wasn't very good at Citri. It must have been because they saw the prey with their eyes open when they first met. With Liz's eyes, it was unusual for Citrix to look like that.

"Well, I've always wanted a space-time bag..."

It's been a long time since I've been on the expedition as the Ghost of Mourning. Even if it is an expedition, it does not challenge the treasure hall, but it does not change that the forest where Yggdra exists is harsh.

"If Luke hadn't been a rock, I wouldn't have been summoned..."

Ooh, Krai-chan!

Good morning, I'm fine.

As usual, Liz comes to Tino with full of energy. She must have stayed at Tino's house last night.

"I knew it, but I'm the only one weak in the morning..."

The members of this party were [Ghost of Mourning] and [Holy Thunder of the Stars].

The more people there are, the more luggage there is. If you have more luggage, you have to use a large carriage.

Choosing the tools to carry is a difficult issue for a treasure hunter. Especially if you go to a treasure hall in the distance for days, you will need household goods, so the luggage volume will be huge.

The more luggage you have, the more weight you'll have and the more you'll be able to carry. It's hard to escape when something happens, and we're taking a lot of damage when we're hit by supplies. Ghost of Mourning I didn't know how many times I'd lost items to monsters and phantoms.

However, if I squeeze the luggage too much, I can't deal with it when something happens.

However, Mikkun's presence solved everything this time.

Water. Food. Camping gear. Most of the bulky supplies were already stored in Mikun. The only thing I'm putting on the table right now is something that would be suspicious if I didn't have it.

Mikkun is not a treasure that can be unveiled. Even though space-time bags are precious and a treasure that everyone wants, if you know that there is such a high-functioning space-time bag as Mikkun, the country, the Chamber of Commerce, and the bandits will come to take it with all their hands.

Even if it was okay to give up a hundred steps to travel in a treasure chest, it was bad to know that it was a space-time bag. I feel it is slower now because I have already swallowed a number of people, but the spread of information has never been more limited.

Speaking of which, do you know about Hami Min-kun from Holy Thunder of the Star ?

Then, Anthém, who was staying at the church, rendezvous, and Eliza, with a vague expression, arrives from nowhere.

It's not that I have a squeaky expression all the time, but now Eliza is not as powerful as usual.

I see... the weaker members were here in the morning, besides me.

"Good morning, Eliza. How are you today?"

In response to my words, Eliza checked this with a slow motion and nodded softly. Lucia frowned and spoke to Eliza.

"Eliza-san, are you okay?" I don't think I'm doing well..... "

Eliza blinked her eyes slowly and looked at me and Lucia alternately, but she said puffy.

"...... my legs...... they want to escape from Ku"

... what do you mean, come on.

This time I look different. [M] It's all about purpose, and I've got all the collections I've collected. Besides, there are a lot of charging personnel, and I'm the strongest I've ever been.

No... I wonder if Krahi is number two?

Don't worry about it. If this doesn't work, we won't be able to do anything anymore.

Eliza slipped into the carriage. Feeling his gaze, Tino looked at me with a subtle expression.

I feel like my position in Tino has been changing lately. I relied on it a lot last time, and I showed you bad looks, so I can't help it, but I want to save it a little bit.

Don't let your arms ring for a long time.

Why don't you get on Tino as well?

"... heh? Ah, um, did I?" I... am just seeing you off - no, no, nothing! I'm honored! "

Looking at the neighboring Liz, Tino got into the carriage like he was playing....... I feel like I've done something unnecessary.

Well, um... I don't think Tino's around, because he can't move well...

Mikun sat down and waited for the Lapis and the others. The sky is white, and the number of people is gradually increasing, but there is no sign of the Lapis coming.

Lucia, who was sitting next to her, looked at the clock on the side of the gate and said:

"Lapis, it's late... I'm sure you'll keep your time..."

Is something wrong?

I didn't mind waiting a little, but unlike Eliza, who was a little slow, the Lapis was a good one. Is there something wrong?

Thirty minutes later, the Lapis finally arrived.

It looked like something had happened, and Lapis himself and his allies looked cloudy. When you look at me, you say it in a lower voice than usual.

"I'm sorry I'm late."

"I don't mind...... what happened?"

The facial expression of the party members was somewhat unsettling. Most of the Spirit People (Noble) are rational and always have an attitude that makes them feel ruthless, so if they show such an unusual expression, they will become uneasy even here.

Lapis glanced at the surroundings as he asked me in horror, and said with a frown.

"Ah. That's why Kurus went missing... until we got back to the Imperial City... do you know anything about it?"

............ ah.
