Strange Grief Wants to Retire ~ The Weakest Hunter Dreams of a Hero ~ Chapter 382.2: Station ②

I say to Saya as she sits down next to .

“By the way, Saya, you used your ability on , didn’t you?” (Cry)

“………… You noticed?” (Saya)

Saya’s eyes widen in surprise. No, even if you ask if I noticed it or not, your *Sarasara* rustle, rustle has massacred everyone who had been involved………… Maybe you didn’t notice that your ability activated?

………… What on earth is *sarasara* rustle, rustle?

There, Kaiser then speaks up in an agitated voice.

“Wait a mont, Saya-kun. Did you use your ability on too?” (Kaiser)

“………… It is because it is dangerous here…… With my abilities I can deal with surprise attacks. But usually, people don’t notice――” (Saya)

So Kaiser didn’t notice either. If a Level 8 Hunter didn’t notice it, it is no wonder I didn’t either.

You are more than welco to protect . I don’t know what you are doing, but I hope you will keep preparing the *sarasara* rustle, rustle.

Please be light on the counter if possible. I would also like to have this Magic put into my Relic, but it would be a problem if soone died because of it……

Kaiser sighs, looks at Saya and in turn, and says.

“*Yarayare* My goodness, as rumored, you seem to have keen insight. I’m impressed. To think you noticed sothing that I didn’t notice――Well, for now, let’s share the information we have and co up with a plan of action. I’ll go first. I’ve been going around each organization to gather information on Code.” (Kaiser)

《Celestial Dancer (Hagun Tenbu)》 begins to talk about the information he has gathered.

Recently, there has been a sudden increase in passcards, which are usually hardly issued. There are widespread rumors that they are forming an army and that they may be planning to invade sowhere. Apparently, it is quite unusual for the station to be this crowded. And in the first place, the number of cards issued is usually quite small.

“I haven’t been able to find anything about the internal structure of Code. It seems that no one has ever set foot inside the city and returned. Apparently, even the organization that exchanges supplies with it multiple tis has never entered the city. It seems that the people of the city almost never go outside, so it seems that it is more difficult to get out of Code from the inside than to get in from the outside.” (Kaiser)

Even though it is not even a Treasure Shrine, to think I would hear that no one has ever co back from it, the world sure is full of danger.

I am sure it will be okay this ti since there are two Level 8s with , but………… It sure will be a problem if we can’t get out of the city.

“And the reward offered to those recruits is――Code’s citizenship. Depending on how well they do inside the city, they could even be given nobility. Hahaha…… It’s the most powerful city in the world, and there are quite a few people with bounties on their heads, so it’s probably a good deal for them.” (Kaiser)

The more I hear about it, the more it sounds like a bad city…… Code. Since you are blessed with the benefits of an Advanced Physical Civilization, I wish you would contribute more to the world. Citizenship and nobility, huh. If those things are given to law-breaking, socially ostracized scumbags, the city would probably be in shambles.

While I am thinking about that, Saya begins to speak.

“I focused my research around Code’s military strength. The main weapons they are currently known to have are semi-automatic ultra-long-range artillery and chanized soldiers who follow the orders of the Code’s residents. The long-range artillery has a track record of being used to shoot down dragons that entered its attack range.” (Saya)

Bombardnts that can bring down a dragon…… It is completely beyond the level that modern civilization can recreate. And didn’t they ntion that Code’s attack range is insanely wide? What in the world would an Advanced Physical Civilization have to fight against for them to create such superweapons?

Saya continues as I frown.

“The exact capabilities of the cha are unknown, but――Recently, it seems like soone attacked the city and was subdued by the chanized soldiers that were sent out. The attacker appears to have the strength of a High-level Hunter but was unable to even set foot inside the city. There seem to be a fair number of them, so I am sure they are quite formidable. After all, it would be difficult to take the city head-on.” (Saya)

No, I knew it was impossible to make the city fall from the front…… But I am more frightened by Saya who is still exploring this possibility even after hearing what happened so far. But even Code gets attacked sotis………… What kind of bandit has the power of a High-level Hunter――.

“In addition, there are already more than a dozen organizations that have been recruited as soldiers for Code. In terms of numbers, there are several hundred of them, and many of them have large bounties on their heads. I think they are inferior compared to us, but if they do form an army, there is a possibility that they will be given Advanced Physical Civilization weapons, so we must not let our guard down.” (Saya)

I definitely don’t want to fight bandits ard with Advanced Physical Civilization weapons.

No, wait a sec? Advanced Physical Civilization Weapons (Especially those from later civilizations) are rarely available in the outside world, but are they sold normally within Code? I don’t have any desire to be a Hunter anymore, but I have hardly ever used weapons from Advanced Physical Civilizations. Maybe there is a weapon I can use.

“Also, it seems Code has been taking in people from various organizations for a while now. Including violent traitors that even the organizations can’t handle and magical creatures created as a result of experints――So be careful. Leader, that is all the information I have to give you.” (Saya)

Be careful you say, but how can I be careful? …… And Saya, you said, focused on their military strength but you only talked about their military power. I see that you are completely ready to get them.

“I see, I guess it’s not going to be a good idea to cause a ruckus inside after all.” (Kaiser)

Kaiser *un, un* nods and looks at .

(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});

“So, anything from our Leader?” (Kaiser)

………… I have nothing. Unlike both of you, I was just dozing off. Sorry. Even though there is nothing soone like can do, I have been slacking off too much at work.

Saya turns her clear eyes towards . Kaiser also seems to be waiting for my words. It seems like I must say sothing.

“Umm…… I left the investigation up to you this ti, so I don’t have anything special to say.” (Cry)

“That ans………… You were testing us?” (Saya)

Saya frowns and leans forward to look at .

………… Sohow, I am sorry. I wasn’t testing you so please don’t look at like that.

“Did I pass?” (Saya)

“W-Well, well, calm down…………” (Cry)

Do you want to pass? I can’t have a good read on Saya’s character.

I don’t have any information, but it seems they think I am their Leader, so I should at least say sothing Leader-like.

(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});

“But………… Right. I left the investigation to both of you, but I had a dream. I dread that this request went well. Kaiser rescued the royalty and Saya was in charge of the fighting.” (Cry)

“That’s………… A dream that the request goes well, huh. That’s a good on.” (Kaiser)

Un, un, that’s right. If I have to na one problem――It is that most of my dreams never co true.

It is just a dream, so I suppose that there is little that can be helped, but even though it is a little late now, isn’t it a bit harsh to go straight from Tempest Dancing to *Sarasara* rustle, rustle to Let’s Go Vacation?

“In my dream, Kaiser said that he once sided with the nobles and made a surprise attack. Apparently the royalty was imprisoned in the castle. Well, it was just a dream tho’.” (Cry)

“Fumu………… That’s an interesting idea. Although I’d like to avoid it if possible――” (Kaiser)

Kaiser stands out, after all…… He has been quietly gathering information, so I don’t think it is impossible, but it is not easy to infiltrate the enemy. Well, it is just a dream tho’.

“…… What did I say?” (Saya)

“………… You didn’t say anything in particular. But it seed you were doing quite well in combat.”

After all, she even got rid of the people from headquarters who had forced us to take on such a troubleso request. Well, it is just a dream tho’.

That is the end of the story. I remain silent with a badass smile on my face, and Kaiser, maybe sensing that I wouldn’t say anything further, shrugs his shoulders and summarizes.

(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});

“The next stagecoach to Code is tomorrow morning. All that’s left is to actually go and check how Code is.” (Kaiser)

Thanks for reading! Saya will fit quite well in Strange Grief as she thought about fighting Code head first Now we just to wait and see how Cry dream will co true (or not)
