Chapter55，Part1: 1 - Strange Grief Wants To Retire ② Chapter 55 Strange Grief Wants To Retire ② Part 1

Ah, I can’t take it anymore. I want to throw everything and run away right now.

As per usual, I sighed while I was in the Clan Master Room with a sloppy appearance.

It had been a few days since I went to eat ice cream with Tino. The situation didn’t change at all.

After going back, I did various research and what co out of it was only seriously dangerous information, there was nothing I can do.

I an, the incident this ti is completely beyond my control.

It really seems that the 『Tower of Akasha (Akasha no To)』 is really a famous Magic organization. Well, from my point of view, any secret organization is already plenty dangerous, so, I don’t want to be involved with them. But they seem to be an organization that does a lot of horrible things in the na of seeking the truth.

To obtain rare materials they are prepared to kill and plunder. Group abduction and human experintation. Using sacrifices to summon ancient gods. Even the mobs around here won’t do things they do. They really are a group of heartless people. I’m gonna puke.

Ark, Luke, and the others aren’t here. And all the other Clan mbers inside the Imperial Capital are already working with the Explorer Assoc. And I don’t have any Relics.

I don’t know why they were hiding in a rabbit’s burrow but if you are a magic organization, I wish you would act like it.

Well, if at that ti I knew that they were such a dangerous magic organization I would have opted to run away without a second thought. The worst thing was that Liz-chan blew everything out of proportion to Gark-san and the others. And what’s more, was that Gark-san seed to believe her for so reason. I am checkmate.

We have been together for several years, but I wonder why Gark-san still doesn’t understand my ineptitude. My Level is high, but it is a Level, you, the Explorer Assoc. certified. If you are certified as a high-Level Hunter, then you will get stronger is not what will happen.

There was no doubt that Eva, who was pouring so tea, knows more about the current situation than who was putting my legs on the tables and sloppily trying to run away from reality.

Ah, sorry. I don’t need any tea because I am not working…

“Cry-san, is everything fine with the Akasha’s mber?” (Eva)

“… It is not the ti yet.” (Cry)

When I rember the face full of hatred of the Leader of the ‘Rabbit Club (Rabbi-ken)’, I can’t help but shiver.

At that ti, I didn’t think about it, but if he was the Leader of a dangerous magic organization then it is bad. He is definitively holding a grudge against .

I didn’t an any offenses, but that Noto-san guy probably doesn’t care about what I think.

I am incompetent but I have lived through a lot, so I have at least learned all kinds of skills that can protect my life.

Right now, from all the options left, my only option available is… To not even step one foot outside of the Clan House.

The Clan House was not just a place for Clan mbers to relax but it was also a safe spot for . The fact that I made my bedroom here, that we have abundantly more equipnt compared to other Clan and even a basent full of equipnt is to prepare in case of an assault during an ergency.

Everyone who is gathered here is one of the best Hunters in the Imperial Capital. They are professional in monster extermination.

Even if their opponent is a magic organization, there is probably no safer place in the Imperial Capital.

With this level of robustness, if in the unlikely chance I got killed in the assault then I can only resign to my fate.

Therefore, I will never leave this place under any circumstances. As an escort, Tino lacks a little bit of strength, if Liz was here, I will be more comfortable, but it is better to not go outside until the criminals are caught.

I said that 『I have transcended all physical attacks 』. …But I did not, you know.

“It is not ti yet… Then when is the right ti? Gark-san is starting to be a little bit impatient…” (Eva)

“Unnn… Even if you ask , it doesn’t depend on …” (Cry)

I an, isn’t Gark-san trusting a bit too much?

The fact that sothing sli-like ca out was a coincidence and encountering the mber of the ‘Rabbit Club (Rabbi-ken)’ was also a coincidence. If all those things were calculated, I would understand that level of trust, but I have already said that it wasn’t the case.

Isn’t it strange that he understands when I don’t say anything, but he doesn’t understand when I say sothing?

What do they an I let them swim…? The only thing swimming here is my eyes.

“Are you eyeholes empty or what? What were you looking at up until now…?” (Cry)

I am incompetent. If I go outside, I can’t complete a Shrine and I can’t stop Liz’s violent impulse.

For sothing similar, we have… Yes, Sytry’s incident.

At that ti, when Sytry was stigmatized with an awful Alias like 『Deep Black (Saitei Saiyaku)』I couldn’t do anything.

I did the best I could, but I lacked strength. The pressure from the country was too much for . When there isn’t any proof, I think it was wrong to receive a penalty just because she was a suspect. All the circumstantial evidence pointing at Sytry as being guilty was probably so conspiration.

Sytry-chan laughed and forgave , but I rember that ti as one of my biggest mistakes since I ca to the Imperial Capital. (By the way, at that ti, her dear sister was clapping and laughing out loud).

When I think about it, I am getting irritated. I complained in a small voice.

“I hope his brain didn’t beco a muscle brain.” (Cry)

“… Cry-san, what you are saying is too much.” (Eva)

… But if you calmly think about it, it might not have been too unreasonable that Gark-san misunderstood.

Sytry is a good girl, even for who have known her for a long ti, there are tis when I don’t understand what she says. If it is from soone who doesn’t know her then it will look like she has a few screws loose on her head. Except for us, everyone agreed to give her that Alias.

What does it an 『Next ti, I will properly find a culprit』…?

… You really didn’t do it right?

At this mont, the Clan Master office’s big door slamd open with a loud sound.

At the appearance of an unexpected person, I felt my own heart skipping a beat.

“Yo, Cry. I am sorry for suddenly showing up when you are so busy… I think that I should at least confirm the situation, right …? Aaah… My bad, doing that when you are soooo busy.” (Gark)

Gark-san entered the room with a blue vein popping up and with a wide smile. The timing was so bad.

While trying to reflexively do a Dogeza. I trip over my own foot and fell as they were still on the table.

While struggling hard with the pain, Gark-san got close to without stopping.

When I stood up while holding my painful waist, he was already in front of .

That’s bad. I am scared. When did he get so close …?

“No, I am sorry. Cry-kun. I am warrior, so my brain is only muscle, I am different from you who know everything. I need people to share their information or I will know nothing.” (Gark)

“……” (Cry)

“Even my eyeholes are emptyyyyy! I can’t even see what is in plain sight! I am different from you! To the point where I would want to exchange my eyeballs for yours!” (Gark)

Even though I wasn’t speaking so loudly, it seed he heard everything through the door. This is why it is a problem to treat Hunters as regular people.

When Gark-san looks at with a piercing gaze, I laugh flatly.

“Ha, haha… It would have been fine if your ears were bad.” (Cry)

“You… Are you taking for a fool!” (Gark)

“Well, well, please calm down! You shouldn’t take what Cry-kun said in the first degree.” (Kaina)

“I apologize for our Master, for all those tis! I will scold him later, so please find the strength to forgive him!” (Eva)

Eva and Kaina-san who ca in with a bitter face from behind Gark-san tried to smooth him.

As expected, they were used to it. Their breathings were in sync as if they were sisters. If they are on my side, I am confident enough to even lightly slap Gark-san. I want you to stay by my side forever.

I hurriedly ride on the apologies.

“So… Sorry. I… I just let it slip from my mouth, I wasn’t serious.” (Cry)

“I know. Oh, I understand. This is why, I still haven’t used, my only strength, my muscles!” (Gark)

Gark-san laughed while breathing roughly.

It’s bad. I heard that Gark-san has beco tad compared to his heyday, but he was still the 『War Ogre (Senki)』. I don’t know when he will raise his hand.

Apologizes were probably not enough, he was obviously still angry. I imdiately say sothing in order to do a follow-up.

“O… Of course, not… Your humor and your endurance power are off the chart in my opinion!” (Cry)

“You… You are taking for a fool!” (Gark)

Ah, this is not good. It was better if I had stayed silent.

TL notes:

Footnotes

He let Noto swim ans he let them run away. Like a fisher who catches and releases his prey. And his eyes swimming ans that he is confused.Dogeza: Japanese kneeling to apologize.War Ogre: In Japanese Gark alias is “戦鬼Senki” that was one of Aiz in Danmachi na and it was translated as War Princess. So many Danmachi references. Is it a coincidence…? I think so. XD
