Chapter 79 Ideal and Reality

Part 1

His knights are famous for their strength and have protected for a long time the Zebrudia Empire against other nations, monsters and Phantoms.

The Empire became one of the greatest powers by incorporating Treasure Hunters in their strength. But this is why, they must be prepared in case of an emergency. That is a rule in the Gladys House.

The strongest force in the Empire is not the Knight Order but the Hunters.

Absorbing Mana Material is the best way to strengthens human basic ability. No matter how hard the Knights Order trained to improve their skills to defend their territory, against a Hunter who constantly challenges Shrine, there will obviously have a difference in their strength.

For Gladys who is proud to be the Empire’s sword, High-Level Hunters are a threat that can’t be defeated even if he mobilizes the Knight Order. They will be like insects facing against a lion… This is why they are a subject of caution.

His contempt against Hunters cause Gladys to look at Hunters harsher than with other nobles. There are many Empire noble who look down on Hunters and call them gold digger, but the Gladys House are looking at them particularly harder.

He always has an extraordinary sense of opposition against us.

éclair herself have started to wield her sword since she was a child and was instructed by famous swordsmen in order to not lose against Hunters. Although she is always with guards, as éclair regularly dive into Shrines, her ability is quite high for a child.

Even for those Gladys, there is one Hunter that even they acknowledge… It is the Rodin House.

The story of Rodin House was told over and over.

A House of Treasure Hunter who had once made a great achievement in Zebrudia allowing them to claim the name of Hero.

It has been hundreds of years since the Imperial Capital was built. Zebrudia is now called as the holy land of Treasure Hunter but they are still standing in the top among all the Hunters in there, they are Zebrudia’s proud soldiers.

Despite being a Treasure Hunter, they got a nobility title, kept Zebrudia safe for a long period of time and has devoted to its development, just like Gladys House. In the end, Rodin has declined his title but there is no doubt that they are one of us.

Whenever Gladys talks about Hunters, his name always come up.

Rodin has been known for their versality for generation, but the next generation head is particularly excellent, even though he is still young he got himself an Alias and has been conquering certified High-Level Shrine one after another. His strength overwhelms other Hunters and his name will eventually be remain in the history as a Hero.

Every time she heard his story, éclair is all excited to know about what kind of person he was.

In truth, when éclair has actually met Ark Rodin, the expectation she held for him has all been blown away.

He has the exact opposite of the image of a crude Hunter, he had a dignified attitude. While he was slender, he had a trained body. There was something supernatural in his deep blue eyes reminding her of the calm surface of the lake at dawn.

And above all… His strength. In a mock battle training, Ark Rodin has shown them that he can subjugated the famous Gladys Knights Order alone and unharmed.

She has received sword lessons. They have stick together as a Party and cooperated in the exploration of a Shrine. Every time they acted together. éclair admiration for him only got stronger.

“Infinite Silver Thunder”. A heroic name for a Hunter who has master both fields of swords and magics which is initially incompatible.

One day, she wants to stand next to him.

After parting, she is still trembling with a strong euphoria to the adventure they just lived together and what enter her ears was some information on the Hunter who is considered to be the rival of that Hero.

The main residence of the Gladys House in the Imperial Capital is in the center of the Imperial Capital… This street was the exact picture for nobles’ houses.

It is completely different from the lively main street. It is in a sophisticated area. On the completely maintained stone pavement, there are many luxurious carriages with a lot of decoration. Security Knights are lined up at a regular interval and are fully equipped with armor and helmet which are polished to the extent that you can see the opposite side.

There is almost no ordinary citizens or Hunters. There isn’t even any garbage in the street, even the smell in the air seems to be different from the one we normally breath.

Count Gladys.

A count doesn’t seem to be a big deal in the aristocracy but in this Zebrudia Empire they have a lot of right among the nobles. Even if I say I am a Level 8, Hunters are in the end, just an ordinary person. With just this one factor, I am like a speck of dust in front of his power.

Also, the one I am heading to is a famous noble who are known to hate Hunters. Moreover, they are famous soldiers. It won’t be strange if I am cut before even meeting him.

Now, my stomach is starting to hurt. For the time being, I am the Master of the Clan which Ark belongs to but to what extend will that fact work for that Ojou-sama…?

“Damn, is it the fate of the common people to always be oppressed by nobles …?”

If you walk along the street, knights guard line of sight will follow you. There is no mistake Sytry and me are the focus of their attention as we shouldn’t be here.

I should have at least come on a carriage rather than walking. However, in this area the use of a carriage is restricted and only merchants with the authorization of a noble can ride one.

Sytry hold my right hand tightly. Her white fingers are interlaced with mine and feel a little cold.

“Everything is fine. We will just talk a little bit… So, you don’t need to worry.”

“Un, un, you are right.”

Even a noble from the Empire would be charged guilty if he harms someone who is defenseless. The most problematic point is that they can erase all trace of what they did.

Sytry continues while smiling. Even though I wanna puke, my childhood friend seems to be in a good mood for some reason.

“If there is the need, we can suppress them. It is a perfect timing as I wanted to verify if there is a superiority between the blood of noble individual and general individual. This could be a bigger feat than cutting and destroying the giant Akasha, you know?”

“Un, un, you are right.”

I don’t really know what you are saying but are you invincible? Is there anything that Sytry is scared of? Well, I am very grateful to you for accompanying me…

The residence of Count Gladys was a large mansion surrounded by a fence.

Over ten knights stood in front of the gate with a large crest of the Gladys House.

They are probably private soldiers from the Gladys House, when the knights glanced at me, they frown and click their tongue. The atmosphere they have won’t make it strange if they pulled out their swords now. If I haven’t spoken with Eva to contact them in advance, I would have probably been arrested immediately.

I have rarely been in direct contact with Gladys but apparently it is really true that they hate Hunters.

A man with a dark and strong skin seems to be the leader, he looks at me and squint.

“We will take your weapons. Take them out.”

“… Eh…… We don’t have any…”

“……”

You will understand if you look at us.

The leader grimaces and make a quick body check to make sure that I really don’t have anything and finally he put a bracelet on my wrist.

It is a bracelet that hinder the use of your magic power and limits the activation of your magic. Of course, as I can’t use magic, it doesn’t matter to me.

The leader groans roughly at me who was still calm.

“In this state and still have your composure… Don’t underestimate us. You are just a Hunter, if you do anything strange, I will immediately cut you off.”

… Are you a mountain bandit or something? All I wanted is just to talk in good faith…

I am a little tense. I am used to being threatened but it doesn’t mean that I like to always being threatened.

I sigh and point at Sytry who is next to me and is still making a gentle smile.

“Ah, Sytry is a girl so I want you to call a woman to do a body check.”
