Strange Grief Wants to Retire ~ The Weakest Hunter Dreams of a Hero ~ Chapter 100: Running Away from Reality ②

Chapter 100 Running Away from Reality ②?

Damnit, is today cursed ? There is one thing after another…

It did have so rit to know everything about all the main coffee shops in the Imperial Capital. I escaped outside by sneaking outside with the big window in the toilet, I can finally take a breath.

I don’t know what was going to happen there.

If I was surprised because of the 《Fallen Mist》 then it was also unexpected that 《Hidden Curse (Magic Wands)》 got in contact with .

Moreover, I didn’t have an escort at a tis like this. I should have been with soone who could get things done quick and easy ―― Like Ark or Sytry.

What did I do to earn that… I, so; want to go ho.

Right now, 《Thunder Dragon’s Mist》 and 《Hidden Curse (Magic Wands)》 are probably continuing to stare at each other in the coffee shop.

Despite this I am still a Hunter, as a High-Level Hunter living in the Imperial Capital… I have in my mind, information about Hunters with a Certification Level of 7 and above. Marie and Aarun’s Level should be below Arnold.

However, I am not too worried.

《Hidden Curse (Magic Wands)》 is a special Clan made up with only Mage with exceptional talent. Their activities are mainly academic and they have strong connections with various Mage schools and armies seeking powerful Mage. If you are a Mage Hunter, then you have to have heard their na at least once like anyone else.

And in addition, due to their Clan’s activity policy, the mbers of 《Hidden Curse》 tend to have a lower Certification Level than their abilities.

They said they will be their opponent in front of my eyes, so there shouldn’t be any problem if I leave. In the first place, for soone like to be worried about Marie and Aarung who are elite Mages belonging to that kind of Clan, is too presumptuous.

However, don’t Hunters have sothing called common sense? To try to fight during the day at a coffee shop with regular citizens in it…

I rember Aarun’s icy gaze and my body starts to tremble.

《Fallen Mist》 is also terrifying but 《Hidden Curse (Magic Wands)》 is also terrifying in their own way.

The number and quality of their mbers and also their influence in the Imperial Capital can’t be comparable to Arnold and his companions even if their Certification Level is higher, as they are only a Party of Hunter.

While calming down my breathing, I quickly return to the Clan House.

I can’t see anything around anymore. There is only one thing in my head, to return to a safe place as soon as possible, that is it.

《Hidden Curse》 Clan Master. 《Abyssal Fire of Annihilation》 is said to have the strongest annihilation ability in all Zebrudia.

His/Her?temper was as raging as burning flas and unlike Liz, he/she is sly and crafty, he/she is one existence that I can’t help it but being chilled to the bone.

As a bonus, even if it was a small one, we had a feud with them in the past. forgetting Aarun and Marie’s faces was so kind of escapism from .

The trigger that started our feud with the Mage who was Level 8 long before I beca a Hunter, was at the establishnt of 《Footprint》.

There was a Party where Hidden Curse was scouting among the Parties I randomly? approached to start my Clan. And for so reason, I won that Scouts battle. Moreover, it happened while I had no idea about it.

Legally there isn’t any problem, but it exists a very troubleso aspect where Hunters had to keep their face.

.

At that ti, it was pretty rough. There was no way a new Clan Master, who was Level 6 at that ti, could compete with a Level 8 Hunter who was known as one of the strongest.

I couldn’t say that I don’t need them in the end, so at that ti I wanted to puke every single day and that event is in the top 30 of my trauma I experienced as a Hunter.

Fortunately, the feud managed to subside by itself, this is why I am still living with all my limbs, but the fear of 《Hidden Curse》 is imprinted in my mory and can’t be erased so easily.

I am really glad that I didn’t refuse Aarun and Marie’s requests. If there were more feuds, 《Abyssal Fire of Annihilation》 would burn down the Clan House.

Without being attacked, I managed to safely reach my familiar Clan House.

The shiny, polished windows reflected my tired look.

I don’t want to leave the Clan House for a while.

I have too much work to do, so my head hurts.

My quotas, the request from Glady-kyo. I also have to confirm what Aarun and Marie talked about and the miniature Imperial Capital is still unfinished.

For the first two things, well, I will let soone else handle it, the first thing to do is to confirm what Liz and Sytry are doing about Akasha.

I really missed my friends.

At such tis, how encouraging will it be for Anthem and Lucia to be here. No, even Luke would have helped distract myself from all of this. What are they doing right now?

I go up the stairs and sit down on the chair in the Clan Master room.

Well, before looking for Liz and Sytry ―― For the ti being, let’s continue the creation of the miniature Imperial Capital.

At the mont when I started to activate 『Mirage Form』, the door opened vigorously as if it were waiting for .

It was an out of breath Eva who ca in. She holds in her hand a magnificent white envelope with Zebrudia emblem on it.

This was unusual, her cheeks were flushed red, maybe because of her excitent.

Eva looks straight at , without looking at the miniature Imperial Capital I created and raises a high-pitch voice.

“Cry-san! Finally, Cry-san received an invitation letter to that 『White Swords Gathering』! Congratulations!”

“………?”

In one instant, the turmoil from the whole day blew away from my head.

I don’t understand what you are saying at all.

The 『White Swords Gathering』 is the most famous eting among Hunters in Zebrudia.

It is a group of venerable delegation, where only a small number of Hunters who contributed to the Empire are allowed to attend, an invitation sent to you is also a proof that you are recognized as one of the top Hunters in Zebrudia.

Above all else, the organizator is ―― This country’s Emperor.

“《Strange Grief》 is disrespected because they have a bad reputation but the other day ―― ”

Eva quickly explains everything but nothing gets inside my head at all.

According to the rumors, top ranking Hunters from overseas might or might not be called as guests, you might or might not be able to test your skills against transcendent elite knights or against other Hunters or that there are delicious desserts that might or might not co out.

I definitely don’t want to attend it. I don’t want to et other High-Level Hutners. I am a little interested about the dessert but I can’t escape from a big problem without making so sacrifice.

Why is sothing so horrible only happening to ? Let Ark go, Ark go.

Seriously what the hell did I do to deserve that? I didn’t do anything you know? No, this isn’t being humble but I, seriously, didn’t, do, anything, at, all!

Surprisingly it wasn’t a big deal, I an .

My quota, request from Gladys-kyo. Feud with 《Hidden Curse》, 『White Swords Gathering』. I am too unlucky.

There is no hesitation. I made a decision in an instant.

“…… Ano… What is wrong? Cry-san.”

Eva squints and looks at . I cleared my throat and said with all my might.

“Aaah, sorry. I have an important business to do so I need to leave the Imperial Capital. It is a great honor to have been invited to the White Swords Gathering but it will be unlikely that I can attend. Sa for the other invitations. I am sorry, but can you handle it with the sa feeling as what I just said? ……… I will return as soon as possible.”

“… Eh?”

I will run away. I will show you my brilliant escape skill.

TL notes:
