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

Chapter 308.2: Shock



Chapter 308.2: Shock

Swing the spear. No force is needed. This spear will be this human\'s death, even a well-trained warrior cannot withstand it for even a second if it touches him. I greatly twisted my body. And then, at the moment when I was about to throw the spear at Cry Andrich with All my mightCry stance suddenly collapsed drastically.

Mugyaaa! (Cry)

Cry is crushed and makes a strange noise. I just *girigiri* barely stop my throw. His collapse was clearly not a movement intended to take an evasive maneuver. It was as if he could not bear the weight he had on him.

Cry has ultimately become trapped under my own kind. In front of my eyes, the body of my kin, which had not moved even a *pikuri* twitch so far, begins to move.

A beautiful and tough body trained in nature. A serene Magic that flows through her body. Her palms touch the ground, and she bends her arms and slowly stands up. Her face rises, and her somewhat absentminded crimson eyes look at me.

She is alive. No, perhaps it is natural that she is alive since she is a hostage, but there is nothing strange about her every movement, and she does not appear to be injured.

The powerful beat of her heart, the aura of her life, reaches me. As she stood up, there was not a single noticeable wound on her limbs. On the contrary, the kindred before me was as strong as the former companions I have.

I don\'t know why she wasn\'t resisting while she was being carried on his back.

The kindred absentmindedly looked down at Cry who was under her, took his thrown-out hand, and slowly made him stand up, and this time, I lost my anger and could only *pokan* stare blankly in front of me.

This is an impossible scene as far as I am concerned. It is too illogical for a Spirit People to help a humanAn evil human who was holding you hostage.

The spear made of killing intent disappears from my hand, unable to hold it due to the emotional turbulence. The kindred put her arm around the still staggering Cry as if to embrace him from behind, stared at the stunned It, and called out what used to be Her name.

Your Majesty, the Queen Shero Iris Frestel The war Has already ended a long time ago. Let us go back to the forest. (Eliza)

Talking is the best after all It is not like we are Monsters or Phantoms.

While being hugged by Eliza like a stuffed animal, I *unun* nodded with a half-hearted smile.

As usual, I still don\'t know what happened. However, it seems that ElizaHas succeeded in talking to that cursed person.

The Cursed Spirit People\'s killing intent, which she had been brandishing until a few minutes ago, had vanished. There was not even a shadow of the spear that had been pointed at me. It was as if it was a lie that just a few seconds ago I was prepared to die.

Eliza is shorter than Lapis, but she is the tallest among the women in Strange Grief (Nageki no Borei).  Her limbs are also reasonably long, so when she hugs me tightly, I feel a great sense of closeness. If possible I would like to hide behind Eliza, not in front of her.

The cursed person looks at Eliza and me in her arms and says with a *pakupaku* flutter in her mouth.

The wa The war Is o, ver? (Shero)

It is thanks To Her Majesty. It is because they learn about the terror of "Spirit People (Noble)" (Eliza)

Impo-ssible Those humans Stopped Fighting? (Shero)

Wasn\'t it a very long time ago that Spirit People and Humans are killing each other?

Even now, I can\'t say that we are close, but at least there is no war, and although not many, there are even Spirit People living in human cities. I am not that knowledgeable either, but since when did she last updated her information? Seriously.

I ask Eliza, knowing fully well that this may result in adding fuel to the fire.

Do you know each other by any chance? (Cry)

Kuu Good boy (Eliza)

When Eliza whispered in my ear in a calm voice, she *surisuri* rubbed my cheek.

Spirit People age at a different rate than humans. Eliza\'s age is unknown, but at the very least, even Spirit People do not live for hundreds of thousands of years. It is not likely that she is acquainted with this curse that seems to have lived for a very long time.

While I keep blinking my eyes, Eliza continues what she is saying with few words.

For a very long time We have been looking for her. She is Our hero. Our long-cherished wish. (Eliza)

Heeeeeh, good for you then. (Cry)

That doesn\'t explain it at all, but okay. I agreed with her with my vague understanding. If Eliza is fine with that, there aren\'t any complaints from me. Just being alive is enough for me.

Heck, if she would have stopped if I had shown her a Spirit People, shouldn\'t you have stopped way earlier Aaaah. Kruz and the others are outside the city right now.

However, I knew that you were looking for something, but This is shocking in many ways. But, well You know All\'s well that ends well, right?

Yeah. Good for you. (Cry)

Eliza *kokukoku* nods in acknowledgment of my obviously random words, without seeming to mind.

Eliza always seems to be generally absentminded and immediately goes somewhere, but it doesn\'t mean that she doesn\'t think about anything or is heartless. I don\'t have many chances to meet face-to-face with her, but Liz and the others seem to have well accepted her, so I guess she just has that kind of personality.

Eliza once again speaks clearly to the Cursed Spirit People whose eyes are still showing her confusion.

There is No need to, curse anymore Your Majesty Shero. Our companions Are waiting for you. (Eliza)

Uuuuuh I-It\'s a lie After all those death, all those resentmentsI will, eradicate, all those evil, human Cr Cry Andrich! I will bring down, my judgment, to the stupid man, who made a fool, of me (Shero)

We were calling her curse this, curse that, but apparently she has a name. The Cursed Spirit People, apparently named Shero, glared at me with a feverish look in her eyes. She looked as if she had to at least kill me before everything is over.

What in the world do you have against me Please stop. I don\'t even have a Barrier Ring anymore

Eliza remained silent for a while with a vacant expression on her face, but then she rested her cheek against my side of the head, tightened her arms around me, and said in a clear tone of voice.

I am sorry. Kuu is My, "Mate (Pair)".

(Shero)

Oh, you beat her. (Cry)

As expected of a Thief, what a critical hit.

Shero freezes for a while and *patari* collapses on the spot without saying anything. Her figure faded away and all that was left was the pendant with a large red jeweled she was wearing around her neck.

Thanks for reading! I am sure that if Cry showed Eliza directly after Shero materialize, she wouldn\'t have listened. She only listened because she restored her sanity because of Infinite Variety\'s plan. Sasuga Cry, he is the only one who can purify the most fearsome curse in the world without even trying!
