Chapter 120 A Certain Vacation ④?

Part 2

“A…… Arnold-san, it isn’t safe to keep pursuing them with the current status of our Party. Three of us almost died, they will need, at least, a day or two to rest their body ―― We are also out of supplies and our equipment is in tatters. Even the members who are safe can’t get rid of their fatigue so easily.”

Reported Hay in a hushed voice.

An horde of Orcs and a Fire Spirit ―― The Fire Spirit had caused extensive damage to Arnold and his Party, who was still exhausted from their battle in the town of Elan.

The carriage they purchased when they came to the Imperial Capital was half destroyed and the horse that was pulling it was already dead. Their armors were also in tatters, it was already difficult to simply travel, let alone fight strong enemies.

Perhaps because he misunderstands the purpose of Arnold and his companions, the Mayor says with a serious look on his face.

“We will do our best to help you out too. If you need anything, we will make arrangements for it.”

He was now pondering.

He was grateful for the mayor’s proposition but aside from replenishing the supplies, repairing armors is a pain. The carriage they just bought in the Imperial Capital was a complete wreck, and the horse that was used as a decoy in their fight is also dead, so they need to buy a new one.

Complete maintenance would be difficult and time-consuming in a town of this size. The deception we used in the town of Elan won’t work here.

Arnold was silent for a while, strongly clicked his tongue and then looked back at his companions. His bitter expression made his companions take a step back.

“…………………… Damn. Three days ―― No, do it in two days. Hay, make the arrangements. Gather more supplies. Prepare a larger carriage ―― And buy a horse with a higher rank. Next time………… We will finish this.”

“O-Oh!”

“No matter where you run, I will definitely hunt you down and make you pay for what you have done so far.”

《Infinite Variety》, who despite meeting eye-to-eye with me, turned his back to me as if he wasn’t interested.

And 《Absolute Shadow》, who uttered insults at Arnold and his companions when they were exhausted in the middle of a public.

After two fierce battles, Arnold Hale’s will to fight remains undiminished.

『Master is God. Master doesn’t overlook the weak and those in trouble. That’s why, if you follow places where there is trouble, you will find Master. Do you understand?』

I have no idea what you are talking about. Said Ruda, at that time when she heard the words of her 『Friends』, who had spoken in a matter-of-fact manner, but with an extraordinary passion.

But now, Ruda somehow understands what she meant.

“Lightning…… Spirit……? What the hell is going on?”

“The cause is currently under investigation. But, that person left about two days ago.”

A young soldier, who was in charge of the town gate, looked at Ruda with a mysterious expression.

It’s the real thing. A real troublemaker. And according to the story, a nasty guy who passed it off to other people.

When I heard of the 『Infinite Trials』 I was surprised, but it was something terrible. When I first met him at 《Footsteps of the Beginning (First Step)》 recruitment hall, I was surprised at his unlikely appearance, but if it was intentional ―― Even if the purpose was to train ―― Cry Andrich must be a demon in human skin.

“Right…… Have you heard about their destination?”

“It wasn’t registered…… Well, it isn’t uncommon for Hunter to not register it.”

Did we miss each other…… Moreover their destination is unknown. It would have been easy if I could catch him at the first town, but it’s not going to happen, is it?

Ruda received a request from the Branch Manager just as she was examining the request board.

The reason I was given the letter was because I had the minimum level of competence and trust, and I knew Cry’s face ―― And finally, because I had a small amount of experience adventuring with Cry.

At first, I wondered why me, but the reward of just delivering a letter was so extraordinary that I couldn’t believe it, and there was no reason to not take it.

Originally, letter delivery is a request that is occasionally issued from time to time. As it requires a certain amount of trust in the Hunter who receives it as a prerequisite, Ruda had never received one, but if it is a request you receive when you are traveling, it is an incredibly beneficial request when you think about it.

Still, it would be difficult if you also need to look for the receiver, but this time, I know where they are going. It was Count Gladys’ territory. After that, all we need to do now is to contact the department that controls the town’s comings and goings, and follow their footsteps.

It was supposed to be a simple request. However, arriving at the first town, and this was already doubtful.

Normally, a Spirit, something that seldom appears in human settlement, had attacked the town. Even if it was already over, it isn’t a very pleasant story to hear.

I have a bad feeling about this.

While I was frowning and seriously thinking about whether this was an alarm bell ringing because of my intuition as a Thief or it was just an illusion, a voice called out from behind me.

“………… What, we just missed each other. Where did he go?”

“…… I don’t know.”

With a slightly higher tone, I sigh deeply.

This time, Ruda wasn’t the only one who received the request. Coincidentally, a Party that happened to be looking at the request board at the same time as me also received the request.

It wasn’t uncommon for a solo to have a temporary Party, but when that member is the same one as the one who was with you the last time you had the terrible experience at the 【White Wolf Den】, it was understandable to feel a little pressured.

Without looking particularly offended, Gilbert Bush stepped in front of Ruda and asked the young soldier in a loud voice.

“I see…… Then ―― Hey, do you know if there are any towns nearby with some trouble lately? A place where a Level 8 Hunter would stop by.”

“Wait a sec, don’t act on your own.”

“Didn’t Tino say so? I don’t have the ability to track them. Because our Party specialized in capturing Shrines!”

Even though I told them that I was enough by myself, why did they have to come with me?

Seeing Gilbert’s Party Members approaching apologetically, Ruda sighed deeply.

TL notes:

Thanks for reading!

Press F in the comment for the dead horses… They didn’t deserve this. (That’s why you take a platinum horse to pull a carriage!)

Ruda I think you will need backup if you want to follow Cry!

And the official Volume 1 of Strange Grief is finally out! But I’m still waiting for the printed version on Amazon because I live in Europe…

Tchao à plus!
