Chapter 46: Amyl’s Recollection

 

The first time we met him is when we escaped from being chased by the orcs. The me of those days, although I could manage if it was one-on-one, the Orcs are not an opponent I could handle if 2 or more appeared. Therefore I didn’t hesitate to run away. I don’t want Lelena to encounter any dangerous experience because of me.

I am at a loss and sit down from having met an unexpected powerful enemy for what should have been a simple request, when a boy with jet-black hair looking slightly younger than me, as well as a girl of the Cat tribe about the same age as him happened to pass by.

 

Although his appearance doesn’t seem reliable, when I look at his status he’s Level 13 which is 5 levels higher than us. I have unintentionally called out to him in surprise. Fortunately, as they seemed to have also accept the same quest as us when we talked, we created a temporary party.

I could hardly believe my eyes when we fought together for the first time. Surprisingly, he could use both sword and magic. People would usually just concentrates just either one of those. Although there are some high level soldier that fight using some simple magic, it was way different from this guy that could skillfully use magic with no aria during battle. As for the No Aria skill, even a high level magician are not sure whether they could use it or not. Although there are many court magicians in this country, I heard the one that could use it is just one or two people at most.
[T.N: Changed No Chant to No Aria, as it sounds better.]

 

After the battle with the Orcs, he acts pretty humble even though he showed that kind of ability. However, he moves in a way that makes all the surrounding party members able to fight advantageously at any time. It’s not a thing that anyone could do. I don’t have it, and it might have been an ability he was born with.

The thing I’m surprised the most is his 『Experience Value Up』 skill that I’ve never heard of before. Lelena and I have been raising our level little by little for a long time after leaving the village. I was speechless when I was able to get more experience value that what I have gathered until now in just one fight.

I can’t say that I didn’t have any ulterior motive. We thought that our luck will open out if were with this guy. Since he’s a guy that was easy to talk with, Claire who’s together with him seems to be a good girl too. Although I don’t know whether they will accept it or not, I suggest we create a party thinking he will refuse, but he easily accept it. We only met each other while passing on the road after all. I’m glad.

 

However, because of my mistake I almost made everyone encounter a dangerous experience. The request that the fired up me take as it was our first quest for the new party was actually a Silver rank quest. It was a dangerous quest for the Bronze us at that time with no expectation of success. We even got tangled with a Silver rank party when i decided to return the quest immediately.

Those guys made a fool of us and tried to take the quest, but he stubbornly refuse to hand it over. On the contrary, he boldly pick a fight with them. I started to think that this guy’s heart is made of steel. And he said it like it was nothing, that there won’t be any problem if we just get stronger.

 

How does he have that much conviction to easily said that with his mouth. But seeing his face full of confidence,I start to think that it might be possible. We immediately went into the dungeon for training, and we’re able to reach Silver rank in just a few days. The medical herb quest before is just a small change compared to this.

The current us who have become strong could easily defeat the previously powerful Orcs, so we could defeat the previous Silver rank adventurers one-on-one. I’m a little bit scared at how I’ve become strong so easily.

 

When I fought against the large crowd of monsters for the urgent quest, he really stood out. The wyvern that couldn’t be dropped by neither a strong bow nor magic, he dropped them like insects one by one using explosion magic that should be unsuitable for flying enemies.When I saw that, I’m really impressed on that guy who had various ways to fight by changing his tools and technique.

We heard the story about being the capital city’s officer from the ossan during the urgent quest, thus we immediately headed to the capital city. Everyone cooperated together to acquire abilities in the capital city’s dungeon to allow me to be a knight. I’m really glad. I’ve joined party several times, but I’ve never been able to meet such a kind companion so far.

 

When we went into the dungeon, we met 2 slave girl that were thrown away as shield. One of them is still a kid. Although I got angry at them who used such a kid as a shield, that guy got more angrier than me, he just went and beat them up on the spot. At first I thought it was going to be a big fight at that time. He just decided to take the girls like it was natural. When you meet him in person, he looks cold but actually warm on the inside.

 

The powerful enemies hiding underground appeared when we went to the lower level. I felt my life in danger several times. But, that guy managed to do something each time. Although he’s slightly shameless as a man, I think that he’s a really reliable guy.

And when we fight the Floor Master, since we were busy dealing with the small fry, he was made to fight the Floor master one-on-one. We were trying our best to support him, but he managed to defeat it alone while being seriously injured. Defeating the Floor Master alone, that is just like the heroes in the old stories.

 

With everyone’s help, I finally managed to reach Gold rank, and managed to get the recommendation as a knight. Although it’s the first time I spar with him as training for the examination, it was so difficult. Even though the difference in level is not that much, the title he received had made him raised to another plain. There’s not many things changed since I first met him, but somehow he had this dignified presence. Is this what they call a true strong man?

 

On Knight’s Examination day, at first it was the interview. The Knight Captain with the beard and the chubby Vice Captain are the interviewers. Although the Knight Captain speaks normally, the Vice Captain is a real ass. Although nobles used to boast about things, he insulted my birth and parents. I have no idea how many times I want just shout back and leave, I could do nothing but endure for the sake of everyone who cooperated.

Since I embarrass the Vice Captain during the match, I guess I feel a little refreshed. However, the Knight Captain that I fought afterwards had tremendous strength. He could handle me lightly even when I go all out, each blow that I received almost throw me away. Although I managed to find a chance to attack, he just receive all of it like he’s playing. I lost.

I wanted to apologize to everyone who went together with me, but I couldn’t lift my head. I was really surprised when I heard that I have passed for some reason, I became speechless. Celebrating it together with Lelena, we make a fuss in front of the Knight Captain.

 

And then, although I have no idea how things lead to that, that guy will fight against the Knight Captain. No matter how strong he is, the opponent is a veteran soldier who served as the knight of the country. The captain’s level is higher too, so I thought he would be defeated for sure.

But he easily exceeded my expectation. The Knight Captain is at his mercy as he aims for the hands and feet. He finally end it by splitting the Knight Captain’s sword in two. When that guy is serious, I was surprised once again at how strong he is.

 

And finally, the time for us to part ways have come. From tomorrow onward I will be a knight of the country, and they seems to be leaving for another country. Although I’m so indebted to him I couldn’t thank him enough, he still gave some of their shares of the reward to us. He said that it’s a wedding present. I think that I’ve stumbled upon a really good friend.
My life as a knight had just begun, I will work hard so that news about me will reach him in far away places. I don’t want to disappoint that guy. That’s why, let’s meet again later, Est.
