Chapter 241 - Episode Thirty-Eight - The Collector (9)
I can’t grasp the collector’s intent.
His deanor changed too abruptly.
I took a step back, feeling disturbed.
“Well, well …… I’m not sure if I’d be a match for you, even if I really tried to fight you. I had no idea that such a person existed in the world, and while I lant the narrowness of my views, I also feel that I have seen a ray of light in this world that I thought I had had enough of.”
“Wha-, Huh ……?”
While I am bewildered, Altamir goes out front.
“…… You’re persistent. Don’t be a sore loser. For the legendary adventurer to be like that.”
It seed that Altamir had grasped the collector’s intentions.
I threw a glance at Altamir for an explanation.
“No, I have changed my mind. Abel, Abel the Sorcerer of Marren. To show my respect for your great magical power and I will allow you to help with my alchemy experint …… on the “Ravenous Dragon’s Tool Bag”.”
“R-Really!?”
I pushed Altamir away from and brought my face closer to the collector.
The collector retreated for a mont, as if pressured by , but then he leaned forward and ca face to face with .
“Yes, yes, that’s right! But I want to test you once again to see if you are really worth it. Yes …… I want you to fight as an equal, without these trivial fetters.”
As soon as he said it, the collector waved his hands in the air, took out the broken “Earth-Shattering Sword” and put it in his hand, and shook it from side to side.
“If you don’t live up to my expectations …… I can’t leave the Great God’s Treasure Book with such a person, so I’ll ask you to return it, and I’ll take that wooden puppet and the wand of destruction as I originally promised. And I’ll also take that transformable sword that you took out. Since I’m gambling my, the collector’s greatest treasure, I should get at least that much ……”
“The Great God’s Treasure Book, the World Tree Ortem, the Wand of Destruction, and the Lapides Sword. ……”
T-This guy, a-all bet huh ……
No, in the first place, I don’t have the third thing, and I haven’t even seen it before.
“No, don’t take it so seriously! With your magic power, no matter what I do with it, it will be aningless. This is my little gift to the sorcerer who will eventually leave his na in the legends …… In return, I just want you to go along with my selfishness for a little while. In other words, it’s like a rite of passage for to convince myself!”
The collector, with a gentle smile in his eyes, plays with the broken sword in his hand while he fiddles with his other hand.
“N-no …… you’re overreacting ……”
I scratched my head to cover up my embarrassnt at being called a legendary sorcerer.
There’s no reason to say no when he has said so much.
Besides, I could see the limits of the collector in the earlier ga.
In fact, no matter what the collector uses, I don’t think I’ll be in much danger.
“I know that’s an overestimation, but of course I’ll take you up on it! To not disappoint the Mr. Collector, I will do my best not to ……”
“Ho-, hold it! Abel, please hold it!”
a throws out her luggage and elbows my arms from behind.
The thrown out Great God’s Treasure Book bounced lightly on the luggage bag.
The collector’s eyes sharply condemned it, but as soon as I looked at the collector’s face, his eyes imdiately returned to normal.
“It’s a trap! This is a trap, no matter what anyone thinks!”
Altamir, too, was trying to hold back.
“…… I’m glad you agree with , Abel.”
As soon as I said it, the collector that plays with the “Earth-Shattering Sword” in his hand crushes it
The remnants fluttered around.
In place of the lost Sword of the Earth, the collector raises a huge sword to the ceiling, which he has been holding for so ti.
“Take back what you said! If the person you were fighting is a human, then from here on out you’ll have to deal with a mythical magical tool itself! It’s completely different! Even you understand that, don’t you!?”
“No, he said his just testing . ……”
“Of course, that’s a big lie, you know!? He’s just trying to spare the treasure trove! There’s no room for a handful of hands and no room for a handful of cards, and this isn’t even a ga ……”
“You …… have been bothering for a while now. You re disembodied ghost!”
The collector swung his arm wide and sends Altamir flying.
Altamir’s body easily jumped and slamd backwards into the ground a few ters away.
“Cack!”
“Altamir-san! W-Wait, what are you doing ……?”
“It’s a good opportunity for to try out my treasure trove in a spectacular way! Today is a wonderful day! My collection has grown by three, and I’ll be able to experience the beauty of my treasure with a target that’s worth fighting with! I’ve been bored with my days of just collecting things! Fuhahahahahahaha!”
The collector snapped his neck and laughed loudly.
“Mr-, Mr. Collector ……?”
“I’ll keep my word! That’s my style! Fuhahaha! You don’t look like a tough guy, but …… I’m looking forward to seeing how far you’ll take this! You’re not going to tell that you’re exhausted from that earlier ……?”
The collector points the giant sword that is much taller than himself to .
“I’ll just play along. Do your best effort, and fight with all your might! I’ll show you that fighting is like confronting many myths! I’ll show you that no matter how good you are at sorcery, it’s aningless in front of my collection! But you’ve made take you seriously. Don’t expect that I’ll end this so easily.”
