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

Chapter 348.1: Sytry's Strategy



Chapter 348.1: Sytry\'s Strategy

However, it is able to accurately grasp the situation due to its authority.

The nature of the vast amount of Mana Materials that flows in it is the reason why its consciousness has sprouted. The temple is being recreated from the past memories and information that its followers have carved into the stars.

AndConcerning the beings that wander around the temple.

These creatures have abilities comparable to those of the time when it was worshiped as a god. They have excellent Magic power manipulation skills and the ability to interact with invisible Spirits. In addition, they have enough intelligence to feel fear and be wary when they see the temple.

However, there shouldn\'t have been any problems. No matter what kind of power that group had, their rank as beings was different. A god cannot be defeated by someone who is not a god. Rather, all living things are its servants.

Countless Phantoms are kneeling in front of the jet-black altar. The Phantoms come in all shapes and sizes. Some are beasts and some are dragons. Some are spirits and some are people. The only thing they have in common, despite their varied lifespans, abilities, cultures, and ecologies, isThe masks that cover their faces.

A mask. That is the proof of loyalty to Keller, the masked god.

They take in the occasional intruders that appear from time to time, boost their numbers and power, and wait for the time of its complete manifestation. The situation that should have been going smoothly took a turn for the worse when a group of believers who appeared at the temple were wiped out.

There have been times when its followers have been killed in the past. However, it is unprecedented for an army led by a high-ranking follower to be killed. Moreover, if an army of these people suddenly appeared in the temple without warning, no one, no matter if they were a god or not, could ignore them.

Even divine beings have natural enemies. That isAnother god. This world is not the same as it was when Keller ruled. Not being able to use the technique of directly sending troops from outside the god\'s perceptual range suggests the possibility of other gods interfering with it.

And then, that suspicion turned into certainty the moment it was unexpectedly seen.

It had to go on the defensive. Even in its current state, it would be able to overwhelm lower-level lifeforms as its opponent, but it still lacks the strength to fight against someone of the same rank. Using the power of the earth\'s veins, it created a powerful barrier and ordered the newly joined members of his kind to patrol the area and eliminate foreign enemies.

The power gathered in the temple is enormous. A complete recovery is a long way off, but as long as it can manage to recreate a body, it can fight even against gods. The spacial barrier that diverts the power that flows into space is strong. It also has perfect countermeasures against spatial leaps, and even divine beings can\'t break it that easily.

Keller\'s followers are on the defensive due to the Oracle they received from Keller. Time is on Keller\'s side.

Yggdra and the Imperial Capital of Zebrudia have different locations, cultures, and climates, but the bed is the only thing that remains the same. A mansion in Yggdra has been prepared for Strange Grief\'s (Nageki no Borei) stay. And as I *gorogoro* roll around in my empty bedroom bed, I grieve about the cruelty of this world.

Yesterday was a day where a lot of things kept me on edge. And maybe because I haven\'t used my Perfect Vacation, my body feels heavier than usual.

The cause of me being on edge was not the World Tree\'s going out of control, nor the presence of an assailant. I have experienced that many times. If I were to panic about something like that, I wouldn\'t be able to function as a Level 8.

While yawning loudly, I remember what happened yesterday and grumble.

Who would have thought that Serene would become such a Damenoble1 when wearing the Perfect Vacation (Cry)

Also, when I went to the bathroom and came back, before I knew it Serene and the others were gone, so I got really nervous. It is a very common situation for me to wake up and find out that everyone who was supposed to be with me is gone, but no matter how many times I experience it, I never get used to it. But I am glad that they would quickly catch up to me, tho\'

I still have no idea what is going on, but the operation seems to be progressing smoothly.

I don\'t know why, but the battle that had occurred must have been resolved without me even knowing it. It seems like someone is injured, but they don\'t seem to be dead, so there is no problem at all!

I almost had another troublesome task forced upon me by the Guardian Spirit, but I was able to stop it before it said anything, so that was the perfect conclusion for me.

However, Lucia\'s Magic yesterday was amazing even from a distance. This is the second Spirit of the highest rank since we came to Yggdra, and I feel that her power level has increased Or rather, I feel like the enemy\'s power level has gone up a notch. Is this why Level 10 Treasure Shrines are so scary?

There are no Level 10 Treasure Shrines around the Imperial Capital of Zebrudia. This is probably the first time for the members of Strange Grief (Nageki no Borei) to face an opponent like this. Lately, it seems that the nearby Treasure Shrines have become a little less challenging for our Members, so in a sense, this incident may have been just the thing for them. I can\'t say that in front of Serene tho\'.

But still, Luke is really unlucky. Luke is always the one who wants to fight the most powerful enemy

As I am lazing around, I suddenly hear loud footsteps outside. The owner of the footsteps *zukazuka* approaches the front of the room and opens the door without knocking.

The person who enters the room is Adler, the Leader of Night Parade (Hyakki Yako).

With her a long spear and tall black hair. Her sharp eyes are the type I am not good with.

I am sure Adler is much stronger than me even without the Monsters she leads. If she attacks me, I won\'t be able to do anything, but if she wants to attack me, she would have done it long ago. I ask leisurely, so as to not provoke her fighting spirit.

What\'s wrong? (Cry)

No one has the slightest idea. It is quite frustrating, Infinite Variety (Senpen Banka). (Adler)

What are you talking about? (Cry)

Please don\'t expect me to be able to understand. I am a man who hears ten things, understands five while mistaking two of them.

Adler speaks rather quickly as I blink my eyes. I can feel that her voice is filled with indescribable passion.

I\'ve been, watching you. All the time. I\'ve been watching you with, the Mirror of Reality right after, Lucia defeated the Phantom. Serene and the others, believe that you have been moving in the shadows, while you were away.

Eh? No, I didn\'t do anything, tho\' (Cry)

I am just doing my everyday life, you know. Even yesterday, I immediately answered that I had a personal errand, but before I knew it, Serene and the others had disappeared and I was just looking for them. In the first place, if I am going to do something, I will ask someone to help me. I am not really hiding it, but the reason why no one seems to notice this is probably because the other members are very talented and busy. No one has time to worry about me.

But you guys must really have a lot of free time to keep tabs on me

For some reason, Adler nods in satisfaction at my answer.

That\'s right. You haven\'t done anything. As far as I know, you\'ve just been *gorogoro* lying around, and yesterday you just went to the bathroom. To begin with, it is impossible for someone with so little information to make a plan like the one you made yesterday, and to make it work. (Adler)

(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});

? Un, un, that\'s right? (Cry)

I thought she was here to denounce my incompetence, but she seemed quite satisfied. And what is the plan she is talking about?

I hate bandits. Arnold and the others are tentatively Hunters, and Sora is kind of a funny girl, so I can forgive them, but Night Parade (Hyakki Yako) are seriously dangerous guys.

Up until now, I had many encounters with bandits. She seems to be cooperating with me now, but I don\'t know when she will start acting up again, so I would like her to stay away from me if possible. Without knowing my inner thoughts, Adler says with a deep smile.

Infinite Variety (Senpen Banka) , you know I\'m quite impressed. I wonder what would happen when you started using Relic. I thought Hunters wouldn\'t change no matter how high their level was, butYou\'re different. And it\'s not just that. Do you have special eyes like Uno, or special abilities, or is it the power of the Monsters you leadI still can\'t decide yet, but don\'t think you can fool my eyes for long. I don\'t think you can. I can always see what you\'re doing. (Adler)

I feel like she is getting excited all by herself. How can she make such a crazy decision after seeing me doing nothing?

There have been many people who hold me in high esteem. Apparently, even though I am incompetent, I look competent when I am wearing a Level 8 badge. Well, when I see a Level 8 Hunter, I also think they are dangerous too

However, I always get noticed by dangerous people.

Ignoring what Adler says, I make a big yawn to appeal to my incompetence before talking.

I am sorry, but I am not going to do anything else this time. Everything I need to do is already done. (Cry)

What? (Adler)

Is it counterintuitive to say everything I need to do is already done, huh. Seriously, we live in a harsh world where even proving incompetence requires ingenuity.

If it is the current Adler, she would have no problem with me being a little strong. It seems like she thinks highly enough of me to make me take her as an apprentice, so let\'s just randomly befuddle her.

No To be exact, I think there are one or two things left. If you have time to do some pointless snooping, why don\'t you help Sytry? I think it is about time that Yuden, or whatever, has finished its regeneration, right? I think that would be for the best for you. (Cry)

I say a random number of things to do to sound more authentic. Well, with Luke\'s disenchantment and my return to the Imperial Capital, it is not a mistake to say that there are two things left to do.

Adler\'s eyes are watching my every single move.

If anything, Night Parade\'s (Hyakki Yako) strength is a blessing in this situation. If I leave it to Sytry, she will direct their forces to the appropriate location.

Hh I am looking forward To seeing what will come out from under that laid-back attitude of yours. (Adler)

Fuh. I will say that back to you, don\'t think that something will come out after stripping my laid-back attitude, okay? (Cry)

I smile and say something that even I don\'t understand. What did she see in me that made her think I have special abilities? I don\'t remember doing anything constructive since I came to Yggdra tho\' Adler smiles provocatively at me and leaves the room with loud footsteps.

Thanks for reading! Oof another long chapter Not sure I\'ll be able to post the next part on Thursday.

And a new misunderstanding from Keller the Phantom god! Does he think Cry is another god!? Well of course he is, Master~ wa kami!
