Strange Grief Wants to Retire ~ The Weakest Hunter’s Hero Dream
186 talented blossoms
My stomach felt bad and it was painful.
Radric Atorum Zebuldia. Needless to say, it is a masterpiece that has brought prosperity to the Empire, making it the pinnacle of the Zebuldia Empire.
The Empire is an absolute monarchy. All its power is concentrated in the emperor, and from its power, it is like flying if you blow a hunter or something.
And at the same time, the fact that the country was being established without major problems even in an absolute monarchy was telling the story of its king's competence.
Even treasure hunters get involved with the nobles if they get to a high level.
I have also heard stories about how it seems appropriate to see His Majesty the Emperor, a family member who has long contributed to the country, like Ark Rodin, but I have lived as little as possible not to be associated with nobility because I am a cautious man. I have also refused to accept invitations from nobles and the Chamber of Commerce.
My heart is not ready for that to be summoned suddenly to His Majesty the Emperor.
I know exactly how Tino feels right now. You have Mr. Franz to rely on for escorts. Meet a filthy hunter like me, and there's plenty to be drunk about.
Mr. Franz told me very seriously that he had said it with such tragic eyes that he could see even his parents' enemies.
"Come on."
What the hell did I do? Nuts are delicious.
Fortunately, His Majesty Radrick is famous for his profound nostalgia. There is also the possibility that we can manage to cut through if we deal with friendly......
"I'll take the Terms, too. Like?"
"No. You're the only one who's been called."
You want me to stand alone against the Emperor? You want me to die? I don't mean to, but who would follow me if I did something disrespectful?
Mental stress cannot be prevented by a junction finger. This is a serious problem. Declare clearly.
"No. I'm not going unless my people are with me."
"Yowaningen, come alone without any odd feelings for us,"
No, I'm not paying attention. I want to take Cruz and the others on the road. I can't do this alone. Mr. Franz will slaughter me.
I don't know what you're talking about, but it would be a working relationship. Other than that, I don't know why you call me. And in such cases, Telm can make more advanced decisions than I do.
I put my arms together and told Mr. Franz I was clearly offended.
"... it's okay, the tellums can be trusted. Ask His Majesty."
"Shh... damn, the hunter flair"
I'm sure my disrespect would be alleviated if Ketchachka and Cruz were here. 'Cause obviously ketchucka is heterogeneous, and Cruz doesn't care because he's the emperor. Of course, it doesn't matter if it's rejected and you can't look at it anymore.
Mr. Franz leaves with a loud footsteps and a rubbing sound of armor.
Cruz forgot his anger earlier and said as if he had been frightened.
"Yowaningen, you, you're really uncoordinated, are. Only your guts are at level eight."
I don't want to be told only by Cruz, and my guts are ordinary.
I can say anything but words. He nodded loudly and clasped his shoulders.
"I just said what I had to say. I'm still a clanmaster. Yeah, should I have told you to come over there if you'd rather be on business?
§
Follow Mr. Franz, who is clearly frustrated. Cruz and the others are with us, of course.
Wishes were vain and demands were immediately accepted. Apparently His Majesty the Emperor really wants to see me. Absolute monarchy is troublesome at times like this. Because there is no one to block the will of His Majesty the Emperor.
Cruz looked like he was impressed for some reason.
"I see... when it comes to the size of a human country and Zebuldia, the top weights are extraordinary,"
"Let me tell you something, if you do anything rude to His Majesty, you can't just do it."
"Hmm. Shouldn't I tell Yowaningen that? Yes."
"I'm telling both!
"Hihihi..."
Not now, but am I wrong? Nobody seems nervous except me. My buddies suck at being lonely even though they have everyone but Kilnite. What good people are all my strength?
Meet the knights who are strictly guarding in front of the room and wait for permission to go inside.
This time, the room where His Majesty the Emperor stayed was a little special. The conditioning is luxurious and the room is spacious, but there are no windows. Maybe I'm thinking about when Childra attacked me again.
His Majesty the Emperor sat in majesty. I have many expressionless knights around me.
Strict appearance and the intimidation of the champion seeped out of his standing, while some of the things he was wearing were still in place. If I sit in the dungeon in front of someone who has a reputation for my dungeon skills, it will be a painting. Near His Majesty the Emperor is the figure of a familiar son.
Telm is looking around (maybe) at the room without alarm to check the security of the room.
His Majesty Radrick glanced at Franz as he stiffened himself and looked at me.
The blue eyes are sharply reminiscent of the samurai, but at the same time I can see the deep intelligence inside this one.
His Majesty Radrick says in a well-passed voice once he nods.
"Thank you, Franz. And I was late to say hello. Well done. You've been asked," Thousands of Changes "and brave hunters."
You're weaker around than I thought. Apparently, he didn't call it in with the intention of scolding him.
Undo the posture that was in place so that you could be grounded in preemption. His Majesty Radrick's words were so Frank that he didn't seem to be the emperor of the great powers, but there's no way to pinch his mouth around them.
"I wanted to talk to you once. I was supposed to call you on the first day, but the situation was there."
"... thank you for your care, Your Majesty"
Sure, it was a lot bumpy. There will be nothing to talk about after the Childragon raid, and the situation has been disturbing ever since.
I've been calming down the last few days, but I wish I'd been much more disturbed if this were going to happen.
Mr Franz said with a small cough.
"It finally calmed down somewhat, but the number of raids is far greater than expected. It's impossible to be attacked so far by demons in the streets. The dragon raid was clearly man-made, but it was also raided five times today by a massive herd of demons. Your Majesty is worried that it may be a foretaste of some kind"
Unexpectedly frowns.
I wonder what Mr Franz is saying?
Regardless of the dragon, there are fewer such as five raids at the request of escort. And it was less than a hundred, so that's not a massive herd, it should be called small-to-medium. There were no unusually strong individuals, and it would be like nothing was out there because they didn't struggle. If I were alone, I'd die.
Mr. Franz is noble. I've been guarding His Majesty the Emperor for a long time. I guess I don't know anything about the outside world.
But I was an adult, so I responded with a smile. [M]
"You won't have to worry. To this extent, it's not even enough to call it a foretaste. To this extent, I have countless experiences. It was all bad luck, and I can explain it, and I'm just going to have the strength to come out a dozen times as good."
The word ten times the look on the face of the knight who was guarding him around His Majesty.
But when I ask only a few questions, it may seem like I'm saying something amazing, but I'm not saying anything funny. There are magicians here who can use massive attack magic. From them, not a single one or a hundred are the same. I'm going to die.
His Majesty the Emperor roars small. From that look I couldn't see what I was thinking.
"You sound like a confident man as rumored."
"Because I was blessed with a very good party"
I look at Term, but Term was tattered. Ketchachakka is as usual, and Cruz doesn't pinch the extra mouth either, but he looks a little frightened.
I'm not lying. I'm just a mustard, but I wouldn't dare speak of it.
His Majesty Radrick lifted the edge of his lips just a little bit there and laughed.
"That won't be all, Thousands of Changes. There is very little information coming into my ear - but I have heard rumors. Looks like you've contributed a lot to our country."
".................. it would be just a rumor. I didn't do anything."
Let me deny it immediately, but His Majesty's eyes were dull and shining. Apparently, he doesn't believe it.
Well, I can't deny that some of the things my buddies have done have become my feat on the paperwork...
"It's hard to believe that you've turned the notorious Barrel Bandits into frogs lately... is that the truth?
"... yes, well... I'm not lying..."
It is a terrible place to turn humans into frogs. How could Lucia think of such uncertain magic?
What if the law makes you guilty?
"That's a catchy way of saying it. Any objections?
How should I answer...... As a result of being lost, I give out a bad toothpick.
".................. no. By mistake, we turned the hunters into frogs together... so that was a bit of a problem..."
"Oh my... even the hunter?
He looked at me like he was about to eat in. His Majesty's son is also listening with his eyes round.
"Oh, yeah...... of course, I put it right back together later. It's only non-killing magic."
Looks like Tino got them back, too, and there shouldn't be any leaks. Even if there were, I'm sending a letter around to Sir Gladys. I don't have a complaint in it, so I guess I didn't have a problem with it.
His Majesty laughed audaciously at me shrinking, as if he had heard something strange.
"Interesting. Interesting, Thousands of Changes, sounds like a man without a rumor"
"……… an honor"
What rumors are circulating? At all, rumors are a pain in the ass. The information with the tail is not so easy to retrieve.
His majesty nodded loudly at me, and said with a sharp voice.
"I just wanted to see that power in this eye once famous for rumors. It would have been a boring escort, using magic and tricks that would actually turn you into that frog in this place."
... Huh?
No, no, that's what Lucia did... Huh?
Half-hearted gaze was gathering. To His Majesty the Emperor's gaze, the gaze of your son's curiosity. Mr. Franz's surprised look.
I look around, but Cruz and Thelm are staring at me.
What the hell kind of rumors are going on... I'm not a magician. I can barely make one spark without magic.
Cruz licks his lips and says funny.
"Hmm... this is ridiculous and magical I've never heard of... but if you can manipulate the Spirit of Sheets, maybe it's easy to frog a human being,"
"Speaking of which, you hadn't shown me your powers yet..."
"Kake... hihi..."
I have an ally... no one...................... Yep. I don't care what you think. There's no way a human or animal like me can use magic. Hmm? Don't you see the amount of Mana Materials accumulating in my body? It's faint, it's faint. I don't remember having anything heavier than a fork here for a while.
The rambling carpet is clapping with pessimism. He was totally stirring me up. I can't tell you what you can't do now. Well, I just have to say.
Don't lick the excuse master. I make a serious look.
"Human frogging is inhumane. And then there was this unstoppable circumstance that I did."
"I don't mind. I forgive. Can it be undone?
".................. the control is still a little sweet. It's the evidence that frogged the hunter."
"I don't mind. Do it."
His Majesty Radrick's expression was serious. Do you really believe I can be a frog? I'm gonna laugh.
When I sigh small, I tend to check around, but neither Telm nor Ketchachakka nor Cruz seem to take my side.
If you don't show strength, it could affect your command. I made up my mind.
"And I can't help it...... that only succeeds when it's in great shape, and even when it's in great shape, the success rate is about 10 percent, and I don't know if it's going to work because I'm having a little stomachache today...... No, I don't think ninety-nine percent is going to work -"
"Yowaningen, you had a stomachache and you were eating scattered nuts earlier, right? Just do it."
Well, you can't help it. I'm actually incompetent, and the leader only has to be Telm.
If we overlap this excuse, we won't be caught falsely. Let's go easy.
When I smiled halfway, I mimicked Lucia and patted my fingers.
"Yeah, Cruz, be a frog!
There was no way to make a change.
I cannot use magic. [M] I've practiced admiration, but I can't use it, and I have little magic in the first place.
I was told there was no talent in my hometown. I wasn't talented at everything, but if I gave you one of the least talented, you'd be a magician's talent.
Mr. Franz didn't say anything. His Majesty didn't say anything either. Cruz didn't say anything either.
The tellum opens his eyes stunned and squeals.
"Stupid......" Thousands of Changes, "what did you do?
What did you do? I was the one who wanted to hear that the most.
There was a frog on the chair where His Majesty the Emperor sat until earlier. There was also a frog where Mr. Franz was. There were Kingsguards. There are many frogs roaring where many stood. He spares only the leader of the female demon mentor among the Kingsguards, screaming with a blue face.
It's like you're even having a nightmare.
Looking back, there was a silver frog where Cruz was. She was sifting and trembling, but when her eyes and eyes met, she stuck to my feet.
Not the kind of amateur Lucia changed during this time. This... is a toad. I calmed down quite the opposite of the mess. [M]
"Looks like Ketchachka and Telm are safe"
"Sparkle!? Sprinkle!?
"You... should have been eating amusenuts! Impossible!
My throat is crunchy. Take a big, deep breath and you will understand the current situation a little by little.
Is this... the talent of the magician who slept with me blossomed?
Sure, Cruz used to tell me that Mr. Lucia has talent, so Yowaningen would be a little better if he worked hard too... but did he get the recoil he was incompetent before?
By the way, there's little blood connection between me and Lucia.
The emperor's son, the toad, is whispering in a small voice. Glad to see your talents blossom, but catastrophic before you rejoice.
Franz toads and Kingsguard toads are making a big chorus of protests. Only the emperor toad among them was prestigious even when he became a frog.
The only shadow I saw when I was an emperor was a golden body table as if I had transferred the color of my hair intact. I just look like a frog no matter where you look from. Besides, it's not like Lucia did it to an amateur, but to a toad as I imagined it to be...
And so much so that I reviewed the Emperor Frog again.
............... my thought technique is supposed to be a toad, but, well, luxury is not good at this. Toads are still closer to the image than amateurs.
Is this my power to awaken...
I said with a nihil grin to escape reality. [M]
"... apparently I'm better than Lucia"
"Yes, I'm telling you, if so!
The only Kingsguard magician who spared the change eats and hangs with trembling. Desperate eyes. That would be such an eye if all my people were frogged.
But His Majesty the Emperor should have worn a junction finger. I can't believe I pierced the junction finger... this is exactly what the truth is out of the lie.
"So, I told you, control is sweet..."
"Put it back! Now, put it back!
The Magic Leader grabs his collar and complains.
Putting it back is a good idea. The problem is I don't know how to do it.
"Er... go back!
"!? I can't, brother!
I scream and see but nothing happens. Shit. I can even hear Lucia's voice because she's in a hurry.
Not good. As it is, I accidentally turn a line of emperors into frogs and become a murderer. It's unheard of. There's no escape because the tellum is witnessing.
How Lucia was putting it back when she turned it into a frog...... I dug up my memories desperately and I pounded my hands big.
"Oh, yeah. I remembered how to put it back. You just have to crush it."
