Strange Grief Wants to Retire ~ The Weakest Hunter Dreams of a Hero ~

e exist because Sytry made a large investment as an individual at the time of its construction.
Whether it is a Mage or a Swordsman, wealth is gathering where there are Hunters.
But Alchemist is incomparable to the other occupations.

“It is a pity that Noto is unconscious.
Treatment is still going on but there is no sign of him waking up.
If we interrogate him, we may have more details.”

“It is a very… painful story.
It wasn’t someone I could hold back.
Please don’t blame Cry-san.
Cry-san just helped me! And… Noto Cochlear… was…”

Sytry says in a quiet voice and with her eyes close, trying to appeal to Kaina who was standing behind Gark.

’

Noto Cochlear has been permanently exiled from the Empire.
If he is found in the Imperial Capital or in the Empire, no one will complain even if he is killed.

That is also one of the reasons why Sytry valued Noto.
It is fine if it were to clean up, but creating a criminal is a tedious story.

“… There is no external wound.
Healing is not even effective.
There is no damage to the brain or internal organs.
However, the consciousness is gone, and his heart is almost stopped.
It is the first time I have ever see such an injury.
Is what the 『Writer (Specialize Healer) 』 said.”

“I think he will recover over time… I think he is just weakened.”

The cause is the lack of Mana Material.
Mana Material live and strengthen all things, it is not an exaggeration to say that it forms the basis of every existence.
Initially, it would be impossible to live without it in this world but if for some reason… For example, because of a strange slime sucking everything up, or for some other reason… You have close to none.
You will be dying.

It should recover over time, but he wouldn’t have any memory.
The human experiment has already been completed.

“What did he do to end up in this state?”

“Gark-san… Are you telling me to leak Cry-san’s tricks? You are joking right?”

Gark shut his mouth when he saw Sytry squints and smile.

Treasure Hunter is a life-threatening job.
There is an infinite method to be one and making their trick… Making their moves known by the others is a big disadvantage.
It is a violation of manner to look into it without a reason.

Of course, in this case… The one who did it was Sytry’s Slime, so it is beside the point but as it was on Cry directive, I am not lying.

Gark open his eyes and harden, and I continue with an apologizing look.

’

“It is not that, I don’t trust Gark-san, but it is the sort of thing you should ask Cry-san.”

“Ah… You are right.
My bad.”

This is good.
Perhaps Cry would tell Gark the power of Sytry’s Slime.
But at that time… It will be when Infinite Variety will judge it to be the best.
I won’t hold a grudge.
At that time, I will accept it with a smile.

This is what trust is.

I stand up and made a small bow to Gark and Kaina.

“If there is anything else, please tell me.
The Tower of Akasha is my enemy… All Mages and Alchemists enemy.
We must stop them.”

“…… Aah, thank you for your cooperation.
We will contact you if something happens.
Will you stay in the Imperial Capital for a while?”

“Yes.
If anything happens, please tell Cry-san or Onee-chan.”

Anyway, this time I put an unnecessary burden on Cry.
I should find something to apologize.
That kind of ring is not enough.
This time my troublemaker sister is back first.
Her lack of brake is one of sister’s drawbacks.
I am sure she has caused some problem.

Atoning for her sister’s failure is one of the little sister’s duty.

Sytry leave the reception room of the Explorer Association while humming, she has lost all interest on Noto and the Tower of Akasha.

Thanks for reading! And this conclude the first chapter of the third arc.
So this is how Sytry has been removed from all suspicion on being a member of Akasha.
This girl is all cute, but she can be ruthless! Looks like only Cry can control her.
Let’s get this third arc rolling! Tchao à plus
