To Deprive a Deprived Person

City Cummer Adventurer Guild 2F, a place where only selected adventurers can be quested if they are above the C-rank.

2F is the same size as 1F, but only some talented adventurers can be C-ranked. Naturally, the number of adventurers is narrowed. Inevitably, there will be spaces like the territory of each adventurer, and that table will be divided into clans, clans, parties, B-rank adventurers, somewhere, etc.

In the middle of 2F, there was one man's foot on the table and monopoly where he was told he could name the number one out of the thousands or more adventurers operating in the city camer if he could make the place the most prominent and biggest table available and dedicated to himself or his clan or party.

Assuming you're a B-rank adventurer with two names, the other adventurers won't allow you if you're just one person to monopolize the place where the man is sitting. But instead of complaining, the adventurers around them were each at a distance to fear the man.

The man's body was covered in steely muscles, and the great sword erected on the table left so many traces of intense fighting everywhere that it seemed to the amateur to be an industry.

The man's eyes had no perspective and were somewhere vain.

The man with a monopoly on 2F first-class was Joseph.

"Mr. Joseph, you don't look like you're in a mess. I've been in a good mood since I stopped drinking."

"Bye! Don't look. Noah's idiot got caught up in it without reading the air."

"You're lying... Noah's a ghost, right? I can't believe you beat the same B-rank Noah with a bare hands beating... it's impossible"

"That's no different than when I came to Cummer."

"When I came to Cummer, I did... I told you that I rubbed it with the clan" Red Meteor "early on and gave half the clan members a blood festival"

"Mr. Joseph was really naughty back then. They tried to invite me to the clan because they were scared and couldn't even speak."

The voice of the adventurers discussing the far-winded had even reached Joseph's ear, but Joseph had put his arms around him and looked at the ceiling just to make sure that didn't matter.

Joseph remembered the day Yu disappeared from the city Kammer, the last time he spoke to Yu.

"Whoa - Yu, where are you going? Hmm? What are they?

Joseph was dealing with the Lesser Demon crawling out of the gate created by Chee Do, but when the Connectors, including Edda, whom Camilla the Clan Golden Moon Flower had brought back to the city camer, began to tie the line at the gate, he threw the rest of the processing round and went looking for Yu.

Yu stops walking once to Joseph's call, but when he glances at Joseph, he resumes walking. Yu's hands were held by Goliath and the others with missing limbs.

As Joseph circled in front of Yu, he didn't seem to care about the missing Goliath on his limbs, scratching his nose head like it smelled.

"I told you to wait. You're that one. Rely on me for more."

When I said that it seemed like Joseph was an adult, not myself, it seemed like Joseph.

"............... rely on adults? Are you kidding me?

"I'm not kidding. You're still a kid. Remember to trust and rely on adults."

"Joseph, what was the first thing your parents gave you?

To Yu's sudden question, Joseph is a little musty when he thinks he's been teased, but evokes from memory what he first received from his parents.

"Five...... no, was it my sixth birthday? My parents gave me a steel spear. What's wrong with that?

Joseph gets a steel spear from his parents on his sixth birthday, and when he remembers floating and swinging straight outside, he laughs naturally.

The weight of the steel spear was so painstakingly heavy that it was also difficult for Joseph, aged six, to hold it, that he could not wave it satisfactorily, but it was one of Joseph's good memories that he swayed in obsession every day since the day he received the steel spear.

"My... I'm talking about the guy I know. That's the painting I got for my fifth birthday. Don't you see what I mean by" painting "? It's like a little needle that holds the paper to the wall. He was... thrown into his mouth and beaten... yes."

Joseph's grin freezes. Yu said it was about a guy he knew, but Joseph quickly realized it was about Yu himself.

"He said that when he throws a painting in his mouth and gets punched, his mouth gets hotter as if it had caught fire than pain. Your mouth is hot and you spit blood and you roll around. Hot and hot.

His parents don't dirty the room, and if it's that hot, I'm gonna cool him down, so they're gonna strip him naked and throw him outside. It was snowing that day, and at first it was cold and shivering, but I didn't know if it was cold or painful... What do you think happened to his parents during that time? I'm about to eat a warm pot in the house. Just so you can see it on purpose. On my sixth birthday, I put a needle between my nails and my fingers for as many years as I could. "

"Already... okay"

"You're out of line. While it was snowing, a lot of adults (...) went by while he was thrown out naked. They said it was sympathetic. Poor (...).

So, what did I just say? Did you count on the grownups? You have a sense of joke. "

Joseph couldn't stop Yu anymore.

Yu goes by Joseph's side. Joseph stood powerless without being able to follow that figure.

Yu looked back as he progressed for a while and threw a small cloth bag at Joseph. Joseph drops his eyes on the cloth bag at his feet and then moves his gaze to Yu. Yu's expression looked indescribably difficult and made me think of Joseph earlier who looked like he was going to stink somewhere.

"I'm leaving Cummer for a while.

If Nina and the others stay in Cummer... and we're still going to be adventurers, I'd rather you watch them. The cloth bag contains the reward money. "

Joseph squeezes when he picks up the cloth bag at his feet. There was too much effort and the coins inside were hessily bent.

"Leave it to me......"

Joseph replies with a small voice as if he could hear or not. When Yu heard Joseph's reply, he left without saying anything more. Joseph, who was left, kept seeing Yu until he could no longer see him.

"Mr. Joseph. Mr. Joseph!

It was Barbara's calling voice of the 2F receptionist that brought Joseph back to reality, which was a mystery.

"He finally noticed. The Guild Commander wants to ask you to come to the Guild Commander's office."

The adventurers around them watch over Barbara's actions without fear.

"I can't."

"Heh? What did you just say?

"I said I couldn't. From Grandpa for the time being... not just Grandpa. I don't care who asked for it."

"Hey, what are you talking about! I thought you'd be forgiven for that."

Ignoring the noisy Barbara in his ear. Joseph grabs the great sword of a rock dragon, he goes down the stairs. The remaining Barbara ravages her voice hysterically, but the adventurers around her had already dispersed before Tobacchi arrived.
