Strange Grief Wants to Retire ~ The Weakest Hunter Dreams of a Hero ~ Chapter 452.1: New Friend

We left the task force eting room and I talked with Lucia. After hearing what has happened so far, Lucia sighs and bows her head.

“I see, Nii-san――Our Leader did sothing like that. I am sorry for the trouble he caused.” (Lucia)

I see…… Indeed, just like Cry said, she is a reliable Imouto.

I nod for no particular reason. Lucia Roge is a girl with the sa black hair and black eyes as Cry. However, that is where the similarities end, the impression they give off is completely different.

Cry’s expression is sowhat thoughtless, and his deanor doesn’t convey any sense of awesoness, but Lucia is the exact opposite. She has an intelligent gaze and Magic overflowing from her slender body. Her level as a Magi is sothing you rarely see even back in Terrace, my hotown, but above all, she is just so………… Adorable.

With such Magic power and beauty, she is also said to be the closest to Level 7 among 《Strange Grief (Nageki no Bourei)》. No wonder he is so proud of his Imouto. I wish I had an Imouto like her……

Well, no need to talk about an Imouto, I don’t have anyone left in my family except for .

“I am so envious……” (Saya)

“? Did you say sothing?” (Lucia)

No, no, no, I was inadvertently captivated by her.

Liz and the others have great qualities as hunters, but Lucia may be even more so. The Foreigners are *jirojiro* staring at Lucia. They have the tendency to be interested in the strong. They were also *jirojiro* staring at Kaiser, the only strong person the Foreigners have little interest in is Cry.

Just like Liz and the others, Lucia’s gaze shows no trace of fear toward . I am curious as to what Cry really told them about …… But even when I overused my ability during the mock battle, the Hunters there didn’t seem as frightened as the Hunters from Terrace, so I guess their training thods are different.

“It is nothing. Besides, it is fine. I have been under his care…… Besides, I have heard about you. Well……” (Saya)

“I have heard about you too, Saya-san. Leader said…… That Saya-san and I can be good friends.” (Lucia)

Says Lucia with a serious expression. It seems that Cry has told Lucia exactly the sa thing as what he said to . I know it is not like he is trying to help make friends, but it is still helpful for .

And it seems that Cry had completely predicted my arrival. He is a really nice guy, not only did he talk about , but he even gave the opportunity to complete a request together.

I am not saying that completing the request will make us friends, but it will be a good start. The problem is that the content of the request that needs to be resolved is quite important――When he said that I am the best for it, does that an I am the best suited to completing the request? Or does he an it is the perfect opportunity to beco friends with Lucia?

But either way, I cannot afford to look bad in front of my new friend.

Because all I can do to appeal to her is show off my skills as a Hunter.

“Just Saya is fine, Lucia. Lucia’s Onii-san…… Is an astonishing Hunter. I wish there was sothing I could do to help……” (Saya)

Lucia’s eyes widen for a mont because of what I said, then she frowns as if she is troubled.

“…… That’s true. If Leader says that you are the best for it, then there must be so aning to it. As long as he didn’t just randomly say that, that is……” (Lucia)

“How can you just randomly say sothing like this?”

“It is because the aning behind the best can an sothing different. Maybe Saya, you――No, I will hold back on saying it for now.” (Lucia)

What does that an? It is true that Cry has abilities that can co as a shock, but at the sa ti, he also has so unusual aspects……

var adx_id_10791 = docunt.getElentById('bg-ssp-10791'); adx_id_10791.id = 'bg-ssp-10791-' Math.floor(Math.random() * Date.now()); window.pubadxtag = window.pubadxtag || []; window.pubadxtag.push({zoneid: 10791, id: adx_id_10791.id, wu: window.location.href})

Lucia clears her throat lightly, looks at , and says with a serious expression.

“Let’s check the place first. Let know if you notice anything.” (Lucia)
