Chapter 218 The Man Who Keeps Running Away

Part 1

Are those people crazy? Why do you go to the trouble of selling fights to a secret organization? Why are you acting like it is granted that I will go with you?

If you are going to fight the “Fox (Kitsune)”, a secret organization like the one which Term, the 《Stillwater (Shisui)》 belongs, then it is way better to fight a fox who will give you a smartphone just for sharing an Aburaage with her. If you want to do it, I won’t stop you, but if you are going to do it anyway, do it with Franz.

I instinctively send a mail saying “It’s bad.” to the Ani-Kitsune. He immediately replied, “Good for you”. No, it’s not.

When I was back at the Clan House, I ran up the stairs and opened the door to the Vice-Clan Master office.

“Evaaa! Evaaa! I am leaving the Imperial Capital immediately!” (Cry)

“Wh-Wh-What is it… What is going on, all of sudden!?” (Eva)

Eva *bikuri* twitched in shock and looked at me.

Unlike the Clan Master Office, the Vice-Clan Master office was terribly messy. It was tidy, but there was a lot of stuff. It is a sign that they are working a lot.

It had been a long time since I stride closer to Eva without hesitation and raised my voice.

“Like I can stay in the Imperial Capital, I am going to the city where the Supreme Martial Arts Festival is held, right now! Which city was it already!?” (Cry)

“A-Alright…… There is still some time before the tournament though. Did something happen?” (Eva)

“Rather than if something happened there, I am more like going there because nothing is happening over there, you know.” (Cry)

It’s bad, you know. Gark-san is someone who will do it if he said that he was going to do it. He did say that he got rid of the staff member, so I wouldn’t be surprised if he tries to get rid of me next.

《Abyssal Fire of Destruction (Shin En Kametsu)》 also showed great vigor. She said she was going to leave it to the next generation, but I have no doubt that she will live until the next generation, that Baa-san.

I am sure that when she finds out that I will not help her exterminate the “Fox (Kitsune)”, she will try her best to burn me down to a crisp. My Barrier Rings will be of little use if I am thrown into a fire, you know.

Maybe she felt how serious I was, Eva stood up.

“I understand. I will make the preparations. However, what about Lucia-san and the others?” (Eva)

“Of course, I will take them with me. Anyway, I will take everyone with me, anyone that is fine with it.” (Cry)

There was no way I could travel alone! I have to go look for them…… Aaah, but I also have to examine the Relics I will be bringing with me.

“………… Is it such a big incident?” (Eva)

“Eh? ………… No, well, not really, but……” (Cry)

Well, to me it is a big incident, but Gark-san and that Baa-san don’t attack people indiscriminately either.

Eva made a small sigh as I was blinking my eyes.

“I understand. Then I will send a call for a meeting to order. Cry-san, please make your own preparations.” (Eva)

§

“I, was supposed, to take the examination for the qualifications to possess an Advanced Compound Sacred Staff, tomorrow, you know……” (Lucia)

And then I was stared at by a grumpy Lucia.

《Strange Grief’s (Nageki no Borei)》 carriage quickly went past the Imperial Capital departure inspection thanks to my prestige of being a High-Level Hunter and we were traveling on the highway at a fairly high speed.

Heavy *dosudosu* thudding footsteps can be heard outside. It is Anthem running alongside the carriage. Anthem’s footwork was relatively light, but it was so heavy that it makes a loud noise when he runs while putting a little effort into it.

When he is nearby, most Monsters do not come near. Sometimes even the supposedly fearless 『Phantom』 runs away.

The escape took place within an hour. Eva’s ability to make arrangements is truly amazing. Every time I ask her to do something, she seems to get better and better at it.

TL notes:

Thanks for reading! Here’s the extra chapter!

Nothing much to say except Sasuga Eva, she got used to preparing stuff for Cry when he has to leave without notice!

And finally we have a trip with the whole Strange Grief Party!

Tchao à plus!
