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

Deep in the woods, Adler receives a gem with a mysterious glow from Uno, who returned from a successful operation, lifts it up to the height of his eyes, seriously, and exhales exclaims of admiration.

A mysterious jewel tied to a string - the conductor spins around and stops in one direction.

"Well done, Uno." This is the guide that [Chi Chi Chi Vanhua] was talking about..... "

"Ah, it's impossible, like this." I can't believe you didn't notice the woman who suddenly appeared in [Chi Chi Chi Vanhua]..... "

Adler squinted his shoulders at Wono, who raised his voice in protest with a pale expression.

I needed the key to achieve my goal. I know that.

I've never heard of it, but if there really is a place where ancient beasts and divine beasts can walk, it's consistent with the Uno purpose.

Since I was constantly monitoring my behavior, I could follow the "Chikamanami", but there was no point in taking the monsters first.

But there's no such ridiculous plan.

Adler licked his lips and said in a shameful voice.

"But that's how it worked." He's weak in ridiculous measures. "

"J, because I won't do it!"

"Uno, if you find out, you can escape." Your Holy Spirit's dimensional dive is the power to escape. "

"It wouldn't make sense if they hit me before I dive." He's not just a hunter, he's a level eight. "

Quint snorted as he sat scratching his nose nearby. Looking at it, Uno stared openly as he roughly took off his hood.

Level 8 Hunter.

Uno also trained himself as a monster, but he wasn't a combatant. However, hunters are required to have a certain level of combat proficiency in order to be certified to a high level.

I was hungry, but Quint was right. I didn't think I could win without a battle monster. And even with the monsters involved, it would be difficult for Uno to win alone.

The opponent was the same guide, but with a different grade. Spanning the treasure chest of monsters I had never seen before, I didn't even show any signs of dominating the horde of monsters that appeared in the forest.

For the guide, numbers are power, but if Wono and the others were in their shoes, the monsters in the woods would also be grateful to be incorporated into their armies.

No, besides--that man had too many mysteries.

Adler frowned and looked at Oono.

"But... did you get the compass?" I wanted that, too.

"There's no way you can get rid of it!" Even if you get it, it's Venus! In the first place, if you call it bad luck, I think we'll show you the way that monsters don't come out if we use them! "

Countless mysterious items emerge from the treasure chest. I couldn't afford to show only one of the monsters attacking me in battle.

I took out a hundred and six chains with handcuffs.

You want me to put handcuffs on the starfish? That's ridiculous. Hundred feet doesn't mean that there are a hundred feet. In the first place, it can't fit in a starfish at that size.

But it didn't even look like I was kidding. It's creepy in a different sense than Adler, who always waves around Uno in a bold and unstoppable manner.

Uno and the others weren't serious yet. It's been a long time since I've felt anxious before I bumped into you, even though I'm supposed to have a lot of money in my pocket.

"In the first place, from Adler's perspective, I still can't believe that the opponent realized that he was being watched by the [Current Mirror]...... that it would work so lightly."

The human mirror that allows for hyperopia is a very rare monster that is still little known in this world.

Even though I shouldn't feel my gaze, it's hard to believe when I have eyes, but if it's true, why did you give it to me?

Unsuspectingly, Adler squinted his lips and twisted at Wono's anxious expression.

"That's right... Uno." This is what I think. This is the amount of room that can be made available. "

"...... eh... ehh!?"

Favorite Servant - While stroking the head of a hundred stars, Adler puts his index finger on the painted lips of the black rouge.

Everywhere, cold, dark blue eyes are as deep as the abyss itself, and when you stare, you almost get sucked in.

"I've been ceded." Uno, I think so too. There's no way that Chigenma won't notice Wono. If you really don't notice the sudden increase in membership, you're just an idiot. In the first place, there are no hunters who don't remember the faces and names of the members of their party. ”

"Ah, uhm... Adler-sama. That's why you let me do that....."

"In the first place, Uno is not a spirit man...... I've been watching him, but it was quite unnatural." He's a really big actor, that guy. "

"Huh! Huh! Huh! This is it, humming!"

How embarrassing she was and how unappealing she was.

Adler slowly stood up in front of Wono, whose face turned bright red.

A cold wind blew through the trees. Under the pressure of the physical weight she felt, Uno lost his words.

Quint opens his eyes and says as if he had seen something interesting.

"Adler, you look very motivated."

"Of course, right?" In other words, his sympathy...... if you think of us as being much less than us, that's what it is. "

His eyes were calm and his voice was not trembling. There was always room to subjugate monsters. However, Wono felt an explosion of enthusiasm because of his stature.

The party led by Adler, [Thousand Demons Night Voyage], was unbeatable. The lack of visibility is because I crushed the opponent by thoroughly. But any idiot would have understood Adler's swarm.

Still, I wish they were just hunters. However, the opponent was the same in nine out of ten. If I was judged to be inferior to the demon king after seeing the herd, I would be surprised even at Oono.

Adler looked at the sky without saying a word for a while and felt emotion, but immediately lowered his arm.

"Let's spoil your generosity, [Chigenma]." I'm also interested in the Divine Beast and Demon Beast that lurk in the path created by the Spirit Man. Did you say the Divine Tree Way? I've never heard of it. "

"But, Adler, maybe this is a trap?" Those horrible monsters are monsters that can't even be subdued by that man, and they might be trying to trap us. "

Sure... that could be true.

Quint's unusual and constructive opinions, which he has not always thought of, are inadvertently taken care of by Adler.

Even if I could manipulate monsters, I wasn't able to manipulate all monsters without any hindrance. Only monsters below their power can be manipulated by the guide, so the guide is almost non-existent in this world.

If I failed to surrender, the monster would kill me.

But Adler's words didn't contain feelings of anxiety.

"That's it, Quint." If I could surrender a monster that that man couldn't surrender, that would mean that I was superior. The battle force is rising, two birds in one stone. "

"... that's... sure?"

Sure, it's simple. Neither Adler nor Quint think of the time when they were defeated.

If the opponent is just a human, Adler will win. However, if the opponent was the guide, the power of the monsters with each other would be directly linked to the battle. No matter how good the guide, the weaker the monster, the loser.

It was just creepy. I'm sure that man hasn't shown even a fraction of his power yet.

The man showed a compass with the sentimentality to call out misfortune. In other words, "Chigenmandai" means that all the misfortune caused by the descent has been swallowed up strongly.

Perhaps the monster that was the source of his confidence also ruled after the fierce battle that had passed through.

However, the race has already been thrown. Once the fire was on, Adler wouldn't stop, even if the opponent was superior.

It was definitely the Demon King's qualities.

"Get ahead and get into the road." Let's see the monsters unleashed by the Spirit Man before that man. "

I can't help it. The power to swing people around does not seem to change this leader or [Chiu Mandai].

Thousand Demons Night Train (Night Parade) An army with Adler as its king. If Adler decides to do so, the lords will do their best.

Worst of all, if I could use the power of Uno's monster, I would be able to escape. Uno sighed and stood up with a smile.

"Well then, let's hurry up!" I think it would be better to be ahead while setting up the jamming. Quint, this is your chance to recover from your recent failure! "

Quint sighed in disgust at Uno's gaze.

"...... why is it all that matters to me...... I just want to say it, but I think it's over when I'm knocked unconscious by a single blow. As one of the generals of [Nightingale], I'm proud to be one of them."

The forest screamed to agree with Quint.

The Dark Cyclops Swordsman, who was sitting tightly on the throne, looked down at Quint with a sharp glance.

The most numerous of Adlar's forces were the monsters controlled by Quint. It's impossible to keep up with that number.

Even when I actually encountered the [Ghost of Mourning] on the plain, it was a very small part of me. Numbers are power. Anyway, the quality of those monsters, their ability to manipulate a large number of monsters was truly worthy of the name of the general of the demon army.

"Quint, do your best to stop them." There are only a few of them, so you can replenish them from now on. "

"... I'll save Zork for you, he's my favorite."

Quint stood up and whistled his fingers. A high-pitched sound echoes through the forest.

The important thing in commanding a great army is how to convey the order to the entire army. Quint's technique of using the flute to give detailed commands was unusual and impossible for Uno and Adler.

The ground shakes and strong winds blow through the trees. In the distance, the roar growls. There was a roar of warriors with a strong will to fight.

Quint looks straight at Adler with a small sigh.

"Everything except us in the forest was divided into a small number of units and sporadically ordered to attack." It doesn't matter if the opponent is a mage, I'll fight to the death. But... you know what I mean? We have abandoned the army, and we have achieved something worthy of it. "

"Of course, General. I will soon give you a more powerful army than ever before."

Adler squinted his shoulders at Quint's intimidating gaze.

§ § §

Ominousness is always irrational. The case comes suddenly.

For example, the dragon's body suddenly fell on the side of the road, the criminal who stumbled upon it was mistaken for a friend, and you suddenly crashed into the temple of legendary treasures even though you were just flying again - and the Spirit Man, who was not supposed to be there, begged you to give you the gems you just received from Eliza.

Finish the break and move forward as fast as you can.

The carriage's sway had already reached a level where it could not ride comfortably without treasure, as it was traveling at full speed on a bad road.

Change into a comfortable vacation. Ride on a horse-drawn carriage and take command.

The air in the parking lot was the worst. In particular, the [Holy Thunder of the Stars], except for Kriss and Lapis, was the worst gaze.

From their point of view, am I the treasure of the Spirit Man? It would be unavoidable to be strangled just because I gave it to someone who showed up in a hurry.

I tried to resolve my dissatisfaction by appearing on the front page, but it didn't seem to be particularly effective.

Kurus, who was running side by side in the carriage, said as if he was stunned.

"Yowanningen, you really suddenly do a terrible thing, right?"

"No, no... that must be a spirit." I called me a human, and there's no one but us in this place. "

In the first place, I got it from Eliza at the entrance to the forest. Is there anyone but us who knows that?

Or it could be an interference from the Spirit Man of Yggdra. I hear that many Spirits who have not appeared in the outside world hate humans, and how can I say that it is not a conspiracy of the extreme part of the Spirits?

Above all, I'm prone to conspiracy...

"Anyway, if anything happens, it's bad, so hurry up."

Eliza, who was running side by side with Krusz, said.

Eliza wasn't particularly angry when she lost something she had bothered to give her. I feel like I've been given up already.

You must be used to it because you already showed a lot of my cheeks when we first met. [M]

You always keep annoying everyone. I have to think about myself a little bit...

The opponent disappeared on the road we came. [M] Assuming she's the enemy, it shouldn't be hard to get to Yugudra before her. There was also Eliza who was actually interacting with Yggdra.

No one came near, because Anthem was leading the way. Although not as fast as Liz, his physical stands out at the party.

As he runs, the ground shakes and the dust winds up. You can even go through the woods and knock down the trees. Because it looks too bad, it is usually sealed.

"... but [Immutable]... is it really a human being?"

That's not serious yet.

"...... Huh?"

Because I'm still careful not to destroy my surroundings... I can't let anyone get anywhere near Anthem when I'm really upset.

At that time, Liz turned around and shouted as she stood on Anthem's shoulder and watched the direction of travel.

Krai-chan, it looks like something's coming!

"...... Huh?"

Something's coming... what's going on?

Anthem is generous and sincere, but now that it has grown so huge, it only looks like a monster at first glance. The reason why he wasn't making any noise in the Imperial City was simply that he had grown proportional to his achievements since he came to the Imperial City, and everyone knew about him. Nevertheless, it can be noisy to those who come from outside.

What the hell is getting close to me when I'm running like this? If it's a phantom or something, I can still see it, but is there a treasure hall around here?

...... No, are you going to pick me up normally? Eliza would have told the other person about the characteristics of Anthem.

"Ansem, stop. I may be there to greet you."

"Hmm......"

I shouted at Anthem. In response to a sudden request, Anthem dropped his hips and applied a brake in an agile motion that seemed unlikely to be a giant.

With a sudden stop, a huge line of footprints remains on the ground. The bumped tree collapses with a loud noise.

As usual, the scale is amazing.

Admiringly nodding, the grass and trees swayed, and 'picked up' appeared.

What appeared was a strange creature.

He was wearing an invisible scarlet armor and holding a sword in his hand. I walked bipedally and had two big eyes on my head like a full-face helmet.

It was also called a compound eye. Citri frowned and muttered in a small voice.

Battle Ant (Battle Ant)......

Indeed... if you say so, you look like an ant. As it turns out, the armor looks like a scalp.

Anselm and the battle ant gaze at each other. Behind them, many more battle ants emerge.

Hard, smooth epidermis, compound eyes on the top of the head. Everyone was equipped with similar swords, and the armor was unified.

It was different from all the monsters I'd encountered since I entered the forest. At the same time, I could see a definite intellect.

No, let's call them monsters - I hear the Spirits have a friendly relationship with the forest animals. "Perhaps they look rather unusual, but they could also be Yggdra's guards...?"

When I thought about it, the ant soldiers suddenly looked at me. Even though there is a dress called ansem, and there are Lucia and Eliza between me and ansem, it is still a welcome time to pay attention to me.

I took a deep breath and spoke with a full smile from above the carriage.

"...... you've come so well, I've been waiting for you......"

…………

"Huh? What do you mean, waiting?"

Kurus rolled up his eyes. The battle ant's sparkling complex eyes were looking at me.

Then, when I tried to get off the carriage with enthusiasm, something jumped out of the bushes behind the combat ants without any warning.

There was no reaction. When she grabs the arrow that came out in front of me at some point, she says it plumply.

Apparently... if my theory is correct, you could have shot me.

"Krai-chan, can we attack?" Looks like there's a lot of them. That's what greeting is all about, isn't it? "

...... Oh? Is it just a monster?

In the strange air flowing around, fighting ants appeared not only in front of them, but also from the bushes on all sides. Looks like they're surrounded.

A member of the Holy Thunder of the Stars screams a little. I don't know the exact number because the outlook is bad, but there are at least a few dozen of them.

Apparently, it was a monster that made a herd. "Well, it looks like an ant monster... but it's a very brave and determined ant that comes close to Anthem."

The monsters were shrinking their rings. I said, sitting back down, coughing up a little. [M]

"Of course, too. Anthem, let's do our best and kick it out with all our earnestness."
