Strange Grief Wants to Retire ~ The Weakest Hunter Dreams of a Hero ~ Chapter 150，Part1: 1 - End of the Vacation ⑤

Chapter150，Part1: 1 - End of the Vacation ⑤? Chapter 150 End of the Vacation ⑤? Part 1

After all, no matter how many tis I get inside, open-air baths are the best. When I retire, I am definitely going to live near an Onsen.

After taking a bath, my sleepiness was completely gone and I returned to my room in a good mood.

I was worried that I might have kept Tino waiting, but she hadn’t co back yet. It was already well past the ten minutes mark, but that didn’t matter as there wasn’t any special aning in the ti I gave.

I yawned heavily, and since I was bored, I took out 『Over Greed (Evolving Devil Mask)』 from my bag.

I *kushakusha* dust it out and stretched it out with both of my hands and placed it down on the desk. When it looked at with its wide-open eyes, his vacant eyes darted down to the corners.

I think that its reaction was very rude. What in the world were the people of the past thinking when they added a feature like this?

“What dost you want? I have told you many tis that with our power, it is impossible to increase your abilities. What is impossible, is impossible. It isn’t our fault, we are made to raise the power of most people. You are the one who is bad.” (Over Greed)

What a terrible thing to say. It is such a useless Relic.

“No… I didn’t have any business or anything, but…… I was bored and I would get sleepy if I am idling, so I thought I would have a chat with you until Tino gets back” (Cry)

“You… You bastard, what do you think we, the great 『Over Greed (Evolving Devil Mask)』 are!” (Over Greed)

Its mouth *wawa* opened and closed as it complained. I am sure I am the only person in the world who has ever been scolded by a mask Relic.

However, I am not afraid of a Relic getting angry. It doesn’t have any limbs and I have already seen that this Relic can’t do anything to .

As I continue to smile, the body (cheek?) of the mask of flesh shuddered as if it was terrified.

“In the first place, you really are a my-pace guy. To think you are having a calm chat with us when you are in the middle of the enemies territory.” (Over Greed)

“?” (Cry)

“Don’t tell , you didn’t feel anything, you bastard!? You don’t feel this huge amount of presence approaching……!” (Over Greed)

“Ahhh……” (Cry)

There it is again. I sighed deeply.

Well, needless to say, I don’t feel any presence. I have never felt it. In the first place, what is a presence?

No, I can kind of tell if they get really close, you know? If they co within one or two ters or so, I can sotis tell them.

However, I won’t notice if they are a few ters away, because, you know, I am not a Thief like Liz.

I know from seeing various Treasure Hunters that the notion of 『Sensing a presence』 exists, but I don’t know how to do it to feel a presence. No one will tell how. Even when I ask them to tell , they all just give a troubled look. Maybe for them, this is sothing you should be able to do as a matter of course.

I had convinced myself that it couldn’t be helped because of my lack of talent, but it is disheartening to know that even such a mask of flesh could do it. Please give that kind of ability.

With a half-hearted smile, I put on a false front.

“Well, as this ti is a vacation, sooo ――” (Cry)

“!? …… There are three hundred of them, okay? They are even coming from the sky.” (Over Greed)

That’s absurd. Three hundred you say, even with a corps of rchants, it is hard to get that kind of number.

Was it broken? In the first place, it is weird that they even co from the sky. You may not know this because you’re an old tool, but humans from the modern ti don’t usually fly in the sky.

As I picked up the mask and turned it over to check if anything was broken, the door opened with a bang.

The one who ca running in was an out-of-breath naked Tino. Strictly speaking, she wasn’t naked, but she was wearing her underwear, both her top and bottom, but that didn’t matter.

“!????” (Cry)

As expected, even I was at a loss for words. I am not crazy enough to welco back my Kouhai with a smile when she suddenly runs into my room half-naked.

The contrast between her white skin and black underwear was dazzling. However, her face was pale and her right hand was holding her side.

That’s when I noticed that Tino’s abdon ―― The place where she was putting her palm over was bleeding. The bloody-red liquid flowed over her white skin, forming a red line down her right leg.

“Masteeeeeeer!!” (Tino)

Tino’s expression changed when she saw . Just as I was about to get up, Tino jumped towards . Her montum was so strong that I couldn’t support her and was pushed down.

I felt a soft feeling on top of . Tino shuddered as she tightly buried her face into my chest while I was unsure of what was going on.

“Thank goodness…… Thank goodness, Master! So you were safe ―― N-No I believed you. B-but, those guys, they put a bag over his head ―― And in the unlikely event, sothing happened…… I am so glad, really, so glad……” (Tino)

I have no idea what she was talking about. In any case, she was completely exposed, so I grabbed her delicate shoulders, where there was only her black bra strap, and gently let go of Tino’s body.

As expected, even I won’t say “Un, un, you are right” at a ti like this.

“………… For now, let’s heal your wounds first. Go lie down there.” (Cry)

“Ah…… Y-yes……” (Tino)

I can’t hope for the sa result as Anthem doing it, but I have a healing type Relic called ―― 『Healing Hope (rciful Devotion)』.

Although it can’t be used to heal missing body parts, it is a valuable tool that can be used for recovery and it was sothing valuable enough that it was difficult to procure one. It is a valuable item that I purchased with all of my money when I first beca a Hunter, and it is a reliable item that has saved my friends several tis since I acquired it.

TL notes:

Thanks for reading! And thank you to Mohammad for his new donation! There will be an extra chapter this Sunday!

Wow, didn’t they say that the Barrel Bandit only has 100 people? How did it beco 300?

And sotis I wonder if deep (like really deep down) Tino knows that Cry is weak? Or maybe she thought he got himself capture in purpose XD

Tchao à plus!
