Strange Grief Wants to Retire ~ The Weakest Hunter Dreams of a Hero ~ Chapter 110，Part2: 2 - A Certain Vacation

Chapter110，Part2: 2 - A Certain Vacation? Chapter 110 A Certain Vacation? Part 2

“What? He already left the town?”

“Ye, yes. It was just three hours ago ――”

Hay widely opened his eyes when he heard what one of the gatekeepers said.

It was unexpected. I thought they wouldn’t stay here for a long ti but they left too soon.

It was just a rumor, but I heard that 《Infinite Variety’s》 purpose was a vacation. He shouldn’t be in such a rush.

Hunters are sensitive to information about strong people and incidents happening.

Right now, Elan is in a turmoil due to the major incident caused by a Lightning Spirit. How can soone imagine that a High-Level Hunter will imdiately leave without showing any interest in this incident.

The young gatekeeper panicked when he saw Hay and his companions frown and quickly said.

“I am sorry, he was wearing his hood and didn’t really look like soone with a Level 8 ―― Ah, right. But, my colleague said this. When 《Infinite Variety’s》 group heard that Arnold-san and his companions repelled a Lightning Spirit ―― They said sothing like they were really impressed about it.”

“Kuh………… Impressed…… You say!?”

“Huh!?”

When Arnold distorted his expression, the young gatekeeper scread a little and took a step back.

《Infinite Variety》 words clearly looked down on Arnold and his companions.

I don’t know where he was, but there was no way that he didn’t notice the town alarm siren.

He ignored it and moreover he praised Arnold and his companion who had struggled to repel it.

If the one who said it was a Low-Level Hunter, then it wouldn’t matter but if it was a Hunter with a Higher Level who said that then it can only be taken as an insult. With their antecedent, it was clear that 《Strange Grief》 wasn’t a Party that would avoid a fight against a Lightning Spirit.

That answered all the questions they were wondering about.

《Infinite Variety》 ―― Purposely didn’t co out.

They were probably watching Arnold and his companions fight from sowhere. Just like ―― A parent watching over a child. Ready to help us at any ti.

Everything makes sense if you think that he didn’t show up during the Lightning Spirit attack because he imdiately went out and watched the whole battle from the sideline.

Our preparation wasn’t over yet but I can’t let them ridicule us to that point. I swallow back my anger and look back at my companions.

“…… We are pursuing them. If it is only three hours then we can still make it. Borrow the fastest horses, you can use as much money as necessary.”

“Aye. I will get it ready imdiately.”

Hay and a few of my companions quickly move to get our carriage.

I will definitely catch them and I will make him regret and crush that carefree face he always has.

Arnold Hale transford all his anger that was about to explode into a ferocious smile.

Inside the Branch Manager office of the Explorer Association in the Imperial Capital.

Today too, Gark was working on a large amount of paperwork which ca unexpectedly, when he opened his eyes at the report that ca from the Imperial Capital gate.

“Cry had left the Imperial Capital, you say? Again, he left in quite a hurry……”

Cry Andrich is a Hunter who won’t disgrace his Level 8 certification, but if I had to say one of his weaknesses then it will be the ti he takes to make a move.

Everything seems to be under his grasp but from Gark’s perspective, who knows nothing, he has cold sweat every single ti.

Among all the nominated requests, this ti nominated request was particularly important.

If he succeeds it, Count Gladys’s hatred for Hunters will diminish and he will get rit that ordinary Hunter can’t get with money.

As expected, even Cry won’t let such an important request pass under his nose, huh.

Kaina, who had brought so docunts, blinked her eyes and told Gark who was thinking of such a thing.

“However, didn’t Cry-kun not take the request form?”

“………… That idiot ―― Kuh!”

Was he careless? Or did he predict everything to this point?

The request form is a paper issued by the Explorer Association with all the details of the request. Initially, it was sothing that was given to the Hunter who had accepted the request.

Most likely, he didn’t leave the Imperial Capital without knowing the content of the nominated request. Cry Andrich wasn’t so stupid and there were multiple occasion where he had properly finished his job without looking at the request form (How he learn the content of the request without looking at the request form is unknown).

However, this ti was different. This ti the nominated request was a request to Cry for a joint operation with Gladys’ Knights Order. The request form sent by Gladys-kyo wasn’t just a confirmation of the content of the nominated request but it was also used as an identification paper.

Since they know the face of 《Infinite Variety》, it might be manageable if he makes a contact without the request form, but it is sure that it will leave a bad impression.

And finally, it could be fatal as the opponent is a noble who hates Hunters.

“Well, Cry-kun has unexpectedly an idiotic side…… Also, it looks like he was saying that he was going on a vacation……”

“Isn’t there anything that we can do with his carefree attitude? Damn, as if there is soone who could take a request from a noble for a vacation!”

Regardless of what he feels, I have to deliver the request form no matter what.

Gark pressed his hand on his head that started to hurt and loudly gave an order to Kaina.

“Oi, find soone to deliver the request form and a ssage to Cry. Soone who knows Cry’s face. The reward will be taken out from his nominated request.”

TL notes:

Thanks for reading!

So Arnold is still not giving up on Cry! Moreover Arnold thought that Cry was looking down on him XD

And Gark misunderstand that Cry went out to do the request when he is in fact running away from it XD

I’m thinking of changing Cry into Krai because of the official translation… What do you think?

Tchao à plus!
