Chapter 119 Heart Pounding Vacation
Part 1
Maybe because he wasn’t used to talking in a polite manner, his speech looked pretty awkward but regardless, I finally breathed a sigh of relief when I heard his report.
Next to me, Liz crossed her legs and laughed happily and hilariously.
“Kusukusukusu, did you see that? Cry-chan. He was so angry that his face was bright red. It feels like he should know his place despite only being a Level 7 in the countryside!”
Please spare me from that. You can sell a fight all you want, but for some reason all the responsibility falls onto me.
The opponent is Level 7, you know. Level 7! It’s above Liz’s Level, Level 7! With my actual ability being below Level 1 (Although there are no Level 0 in Hunter’s Level) no matter how I struggle, he isn’t someone I can fight against.
“Don’t stir him up. It would be one thing if I was the one at fault for making them fight against the horde of Orcs, but it wasn’t my fault.”
“Right, it is all thanks to Cry-san assist!”
“……”
While Sytry was *nikoniko* smiling, she made an absurd follow up.
It wasn’t my fault nor thanks to me. Their bad luck is their own responsibility. Just like my bad luck ―― I am the sole responsible for it.
I don’t have any allies here. The only one who was on my side was the sleep-deprived and nearly collapsing Tino.
While opening a chocolate box of souvenirs that we got in Gula, I asked to check with Sytry.
“Do you think they will pursue us?”
.
“They will surely pursue us. If they don’t, then they would be missing something fundamental as a Hunter.”
Riiiight. A good Hunter is like a good hound. Once they find a target, they will forever chase after it, and even if they lose sight of it, they will never give up.
I have been marked by some really nasty guys. I wonder what kind of compromise Ahrun has made with them……
If it was poorly handled ―― For example, even if Liz, Sytry and the others do their best and beat them up, there is even a possibility that they won’t give up chasing us.
If we are already up to that point, killing them will be the quickest solution, but only that solution I will not use it, absolutely not use it. It isn’t because it will end your career as a Hunter but because it will be the end of you as a human being.
For some reason, despite understanding the whole situation, there was no sign of Sytry’s smile breaking down. I give up thinking about it and she says in a gentle voice that makes you feel at ease.
“Well, the other side is exhausted too. I don’t think there are a lot of chances that they will be chasing us anytime soon.”
I see…… Indeed, as a Hunter, you always need to be fully prepared to act at any time.
It seemed that his companions were also wounded, so I doubt that he would take on Liz in such a state.
And what’s more ―― Arnold and his companions shouldn’t know where we were headed. The only people who I have disclosed what appeared to be our destination are the members here, and I am also hiding my identity with a fake (Real) identity card.
Since I am using a carriage, there are wheel tracks, but we are on a highway. There are a multitude of wheel tracks on it. We can consider that the chances of him successfully tracking us are slim to none.
Liz stretched her legs and *batabata* moved her lips in a flapping manner.
“It’s so booooring. I want to play taggggg.”
That demon is a real demon?you know…… The Arnold at that time wanted to crush my head like an apple. No doubt about it.
Tino was *yurayura* bobbing her head left and right, she looked at me with swollen eyes. She was already at her limit.
I’ve made up my mind.
Even in a one in a million chance, they shouldn’t be able to catch up to us, but just in case, let’s be careful. I opened the map while a sweet taste of chocolate spread across my mouth because I chewed on it.
At first, I had planned to take the safe road by stopping through several towns to go to the 【Castle of a Myriad Demons】. As I wasn’t in a hurry, my first and top most priority was my safety.
However, if there was someone chasing after me ―― The plan has to be changed. Even though it would be difficult to track us, if we take the main road like some upfront idiot, then they may catch up to us.
Let’s get off the road and take a shortcut. The farther you leave the main road, the more likely you are to encounter Monsters, but we have Liz, Sytry and the three bodyguards that Sytry hired. You can say that our safety is somewhat guaranteed.
This would still be better than being chased by an angry Level 7 Hunter.
TL notes:
Thanks for reading!
