Strange Grief Wants to Retire ~ The Weakest Hunter's Hero Dream

And that day came.

Wake up to the sunlight streaming in through the large windows.

I got up from the slightly hardened bed and stretched out.

I was in good health. Visiting a high-level treasure hall in a long time is quite restless mentally, but it will also be solved by using "Perfect Vacation".

It's okay, the wind is blowing here. Either way, the Treasure Hall was dangerous. There was no better time to decurse Luke.

All I needed was to be prepared. Even if I accompany you to the Treasure House, there is no choice but to leave me here, the leader, as long as everyone goes.

I slapped my cheek and put my temper in it. I finished charging my treasure last night and I'm ready to go.

Get dressed and put on the perfect vacation. Leave the bedroom and head for the living room.

There was no one in the living room anymore. All you have left in one corner is to greet me (though I'm pretending to be a normal treasure chest).

Probably getting up early in the morning and getting ready to fight. In addition to preparing the necessary items, preparing your own condition is also an important process to survive.

In Lucia's case it was meditation, in Liz's case it was light gymnastics, in Ansem's case it was prayer, and in Luke's case, it was a ritual for leading hunters to switch on their full strength.

[Ghost of Mourning] is often forced to fight because of sudden accidents, so everyone is accustomed to turning on the switch in an instant, but this time, the [Ghost of Mourning] might be seen with more power than usual.

Everyone will gather in time. I didn't have anything to do, so I took Mikun, who was alone in the living room, a little early and headed to the meeting place with Serene.

The meeting place with Selen was on the outskirts of Yggdra.

A small glowing spring surrounded by lush green grass. The clear water surface, which is almost free of impurities, shines brightly in the sunlight.

This seems to be the best power spot in Yggdra.

It is said that spirits gain power from nature. Selen stood at the center of a sacred air fountain, looking up at the sky.

An air of silence with no one in the way. It was a harmonious scene, like a famous painting.

Even if I'm not interested in the Spirit Man, I can't help but open my eyes and hide my breath.

Perhaps that was the ritual before the battle of Serene Yugudra Frestel.

The air surrounding the powerful mage was different. I couldn't identify the opponent properly, and I didn't feel anything when I first saw her, but I could clearly see that the Selenium's power was full.

There was a small crystal jar by the fountain. The contents are already empty. I wonder if you noticed what I'm looking at, but Selen explains it by looking up at the sky. [M]

"It's a secret medicine made from the leaves of the world's trees." We spirits of Yggdra can temporarily gain strong power by taking the power of the world tree into the body and integrating with nature. I'm really sorry that I got you into this mess after you found Cry Andrich and Sherro's cursed stone and returned home. "

"It's the law. Don't worry, I'll... just do what I want."

In other words, when the curse is lifted, I will press it against the ark and return to the Imperial City, but is it conveyed? It can't be passed on.

I don't feel anything if I can come in a fight like the spirit people in the outside world, but when I hear that sincere voice, I feel as if I'm dirty.

"I am also a member of Yggdra's royal family. At the very least, in order to reward you for your kindness, I'll make sure to decurse Sherro.”

"You don't have to worry so much... if it doesn't work, I'll think of another way."

For the time being, I checked Luke's inner voice in [Round World], but it's still going to hold for a while.

Apparently, even if it was petrified, the outside was still visible, and the voice heard from inside the statue frequently shouted that the treasure hall would be cut off.

Can I tell you something else? A message for us... "

"That's right, does that medicine work for humans as well?" Today we will fight strong enemies, I don't think there will be any problems, but I want to make sure everything is all right. "

Even if it didn't work for Lucia, it would still work for Kriss and Citrix.

In response to a casual suggestion, Selen looked at us and said with a slightly sad expression.

"Yes, I think it works...... but unfortunately, I don't have any more pills." I drank the last one. If the world tree returns to its original state, it can be made again...... "

"...... Huh!?"

One last thing...? That's probably a very valuable item...

Did you use those pills for us? Shouldn't we use the world tree to do something about it?

Selen smiles at me, frowning.

“No problem. I can't manage the current situation with one pill. I've already tried it many times. If it's a useless potion, you might want to use it for a new friend. Sherro's curse is powerful. There won't be time to try again and again - but I would definitely be able to remove the curse even if it was released by Shelo.”

"Ah, yes............ I'll help you"

"......? Somehow, you're not feeling well?"

Inadvertently shifts his gaze. I'm going to lose my energy... I'm going back to the Imperial City once Luke has been decursed. It's hard to argue that if I let them use the last medicine, they would go home after the successful decurse.

But I can't refuse now. I've already drunk it. I'm glad to hear that, but I wanted you to tell me first when you use such valuables.

Selenium comes out of the fountain. Slim, bare feet clinging to clothes tread upon the earth.

"I'm sorry to keep you waiting." Let's go to Source Temple .

...... I can't help it if I use it anyway. Let's think about the problem after all is over. Right now, I was just focusing on Luke's decurse.

§ § §

At the entrance of the forest leading to the world tree, the [Holy Thunder of the Stars] was already aligned.

Originally, [Holy Thunder of the Stars] was famous in the Imperial Capital as a mage party of beautiful spirits, but I felt that the spirits' hometown was very vivid after coming here.

It seemed like my powers as a mage had actually improved. A mana material that is too thick for humans would be just right for a spirit that has low absorption capacity.

There were treasure halls of the highest difficulty in the future, and everyone seemed to be more nervous than usual, but there was no sign of fear.

However, I don't think you're looking at the treasure house sweetly. I'm sure Selen was just as prepared as he was to use his last potion.

They were hard to get used to in human society, but when they got along, they were honest and easy to get along with. Lapis looks at us and snorts.

”Hmm... it was late, [Chiu Chi Van Hua]”

A slim body. His long hair stretched to his feet with a sharp pitiful gaze. Sometimes I get the illusion of being tall and seemingly being looked down on, but I already knew it was just an illusion.

A member of Holy Thunder of the Stars . With the exception of Cruz, Lapis Furgol, who is the only one who faces each other frequently, slaps the ground with his long cane in his hand.

"We're all set." I don't usually do this kind of thing, but - don't be shy. I'll leave the power of our Holy Thunder of the Star to you this time. Hmm...... by the way, that's what I was betting on. "

"Lapis!"

Recently, Astor, who had just learned his name, saw Lapis in the words. Lapis snorted his nose, smiling slightly at the rare thing, and said to inspire everyone.

“I know. I'm not being unreasonable that this is the outcome of a bet. This is Yugudra's, and this is our problem. Show them our power over the people of Yggdra! It wasn't just my power as a mage. We have a lot of experience as hunters."

According to the words of Lapis, the [Holy Thunder of the Stars] members burned their fighting spirit quietly. It's hard to tell from the expression, but that curiosity is fully conveyed.

Holy Thunder of the Stars is the party's certification level 4, but it's because of the spiritual person's unique bad company, and its strength comes with origami.

However, the [Holy Thunder of the Stars], which caused so much trouble and responded like a person other than a mage... it's really changed.

Looking at Lapis and the others in an euphoric mood, Lapis tells me that he feels uneasy.

"... what are you looking at?"

"No, not really? I'm starting to feel like I can count on you..."

Regardless of their personality, their magic skills are undoubtedly first-class. Especially in the field of attack ability, it was said to be among the top ranks in the Imperial City.

Selen had to focus on decanting the spell, so the success of this operation depended on [Holy Thunder of the Stars] and [Ghost of Mourning].

And when he heard what I said, Kris lifted his face as if he had noticed something and clung to my arm.

"Yowanningen, Yowanningen"

What?

"...... Well, you can count on me, too. The magic arm is confident and in excellent condition, but there are things we can do and things we can't do.”

…………

Don't be afraid to say it, Krus. Somehow you're quite humble. Is there anything you're worried about?

And I haven't seen a single [Ghost of Mourning] here yet, but where did he go?

Liz and Tino went to the final check with Eliza, but it was strange that Lucia, Citrix, and the eye-catching Anthem could not be seen.

It was a treasure hall of no difficulty compared to the treasure hall that [Ghost of Mourning] had conquered so far. I may be careful to prepare, but then you'll be in touch.

Looking around, Eliza returns to her last scout.

A leisurely journey that didn't seem like a very good bandit. When Eliza came to me, she reported with a sleepy expression that was as tense as ever.

"Woah, I can't see any phantoms today either." But... I have a bad feeling about this. You better hurry up. "

I have a bad feeling about this. "I guess Eliza's guess is pretty good..."

But more than that - the Lizzies we've been scouting with lately, they don't seem to be here today - what's the matter?

"Ah. Good job. By the way, Liz and Tino aren't together today." I can't see the other members, but where did they go? "

"...... I'm sorry. I forgot."

Eliza blinked her eyes and pointed at Mikun as she stood at her feet.

Mikkun wasn't just a treasure chest-shaped [Space-Time Bag (Magic Bag)]. It's an unprecedented temporal bag stored all over the city, in addition to being free to the creatures. I had all the treasures, and I was going to take her to escape immediately when there was an accident.

"Inside Mikun?" Everyone? Why? "

“…………… in preparation for…”

Ready? I see, there's quite a bit of space inside Mikun. Even Lucia had enough space to use her wide-area attack magic, and she kept supplies. It will be a good time to prepare.

But don't make a scene... I wish you'd let me know beforehand. Mikkun's weakness was that it was difficult to get out unless someone let him out. What would Eliza have done if she had forgotten that all her friends were inside Mikun?

Well, after the little talk. I opened the lid of Mikun and told Eliza and the others.

"I'll call for a minute." I'll leave as soon as I get back. Mikkun, Lizzie and the others. Please let me in where Liz and the others are. "

"... I see."

It's been a long time since I got inside Mikun. When I took a deep breath, I jumped into Mikun's darkness.

§

The feeling of floating in a plump, memorable atmosphere. It was a large building that stood at the end of the alley.

"Eh? T-This place...?"

Look around. This is probably the city you ran into when you were cornered by Shelo.

Mikkun was a very good treasure. In particular, pride as a space-time bag is excellent, and it allows some flexibility if it is to provide comfortable storage capacity.

Open the door and enter the building. The building was like an inn.

Chunky carpets on the floor, elegant furnishings that combine functionality and appearance. The lamps on the counters are lit by flames and the lobby is shining dimly.

If you look at it this way, Yggdra was also good, but the ordinary accommodation is also good. I hadn't been able to investigate Mikun's city yet. Once Luke's curse is lifted, will he be able to stay here for a while?

With that in mind, I walked around the building looking for Liz and the others. Liz and the others were found at once.

─ ─ Liz and the others lay flat in a spacious bedroom bed.

I didn't understand the meaning at all.

A small groan echoes indoors. It froze for a moment and rushed to the bed in a hurry.

First of all, I touched an anseme like a small mountain lying on a huge bed made of multiple beds that I saw first, and I waved the bulge that was occurring on the bed that was a little far away from me to avoid being accidentally crushed.

When I gently turned the duvet around, I saw Lucia's familiar face. However, his complexion was terrible and his forehead was sticking to sweat.

"Huh? What's the matter? Everyone? What happened!?"

Could it be that you went to the treasure hall yesterday without patience?

No... I don't think so. If so, I can't explain what's going on inside Mikun.

Lucia slowly opened her eyes and said in a frightening tone as she fought a brain that was trying to blink her eyes and start escaping from reality.

"Niisan, I'm sorry... I can't move. It seems like Mana Materials got drunk all at once - I thought it was dangerous."

"............ Huh?"

I slowly looked around the room at the words. Four beds, except for the beds of Ansem. Each of them is well swollen.

You wouldn't do this if you were joking. In the first place, I was looking forward to the day when Liz and the others were heading to the Treasure House.

I approached Liz's lying bed and gently checked her face. Liz, who had barely even caught a cold, turned her lazily moistened eyes to me and said in a faint voice.

"I thought it was bad, so I ran into this thin area of mana material in a hurry... I'm sorry, Krai-chan."............ Will you postpone it? "

.................. no, no, I can't!!

I wanted to postpone it, but Selen was using the last potion, and I was also a member of the Holy Thunder of the Stars .

Check the beds in order.

"Ugh... there was something I wanted to try out." I can't even get drunk..... "

"Ugh...... mu......"

"I see, is this also a test?" It's a trial, isn't it? "

Tino turns his unfocused eyes to us and protests in a lower voice than usual. "It's not a trial, Tino..."

Apparently, when I first saw it, it was just some sort of mana material drunkenness. In the first place, if it's another disease, the weakest of me will be the first, and Citrix and Anthem will be able to cure it.

Take a breath of relief. Mana Materials' intoxication was not so unusual for the [Ghost of Mourning].

If I rest a little, I will absorb the mana material that my body could not handle, and I will become stronger and resurrect.

"Hmm, but to fall so clean... the amount of mana material absorbed and allowed should be different depending on the person."

The members of [Ghost of Mourning] are talented hunters, but of course there are differences in the qualities of the fine parts.

Everyone (except me) is experiencing Mana Materials intoxication, but it's the first time they've all fallen at once.

Moreover, the timing was the worst. Sure, he looked a little sick, but...

There, Liz, lying on the bed and chanting, leaned her arms and forced herself off the bed.

Ahh, what are you doing?

"Krai-chan, I'm coming too!" I'll definitely cum! "

"Yeah, yeah, I don't think so."

"Krai-san, this is my string... I'm sure I'll be able to move after a while!" Yugudra's Mana Materials don't come in this far, and I'm a little drunk, too! "

"Yeah, yeah, I don't think so."

I lifted Liz who had fallen off the bed and put her back on the bed. Liz's supple body was light enough for me to lift up as hard as I could.

It's the opposite of the usual.

No matter how tough your body is, you can't resist the effects of Mana Materials intoxication.

Apparently, according to what I've heard, the higher the talent, the stronger the impact. It seems that some people's sensory systems are severely disturbed, so it is not a matter of physical strength.

Could it be that the [Temple of Genesis] wasn't the lucky one among the misfortunes?

[Ghost of Mourning] When everyone falls, there's a lot of anxiety left over from the fighting, but Eliza is safe and the [Holy Thunder of the Stars] is safe.

Reconnaissance was fine, so we just had to buy Selen a little time to get rid of the spell. We have to try.

"I can't help it, I'll work with Eliza and the others to decurse Luke." By the way, it looks like everyone can't move, but care-- "

"I'm cumming...!"

Along with the trembling voice, the magical creature created by Citrix, Killkill-kun, appeared naturally. Unlike usual, she wrapped her aprons around her tough body and held a tarai filled with water.

If you think you won't see me along the way, when will you get to this place...

"Will you take care of everyone?"

"Kirikurikuri..."

In response to my question, Mr. Killkill appealed to me by showing the strength of his arms.
