When Gark-san raises his voice, Kaina desperately try to hold him down. Eva tell me to not say anything anymore with her eyes. I hastily shut my mouth, so I don’t say anything stupid.
When I was silent, Gark-san finally calms down and takes a deep breath, then slammed a stack of paper on my desk. There was a big confidential on the first page.
He still has a blue vein popping on his forehead and he slowly speaks.
“You might have already heard it with your excellent 『Ear』, but it is the result of the research done by the Empire and the Explorer Assoc. We have found multiple rooms inside the facilities outside. It has been emptied but experts have started to investigate it.”
I have heard from Tino that they were investigating, but it has only been a week or so since they started the investigation. Even if they are Shrines near the Imperial Capital there are more than a 100 if you count in the smallest one. You can feel their seriousness when they discover their facilities in such a short period of time.
“Eh… It is amazing to find it in such a short period of time.”
“Tsk…”
“Calm down, Gark-san. Cry-kun isn’t upset. He isn’t, you understand right?”
Kaina-san is appeasing Gark-san who is looking at me with a murderous look.
“Eh? No, no, no, I am not upset. I just thought that it was amazing…”
“Cry-kun, please shut up!”
I swallow the few word I wanted to say. Am I not allowed to say that it is amazing when it is?
What should I say then? Should I say this is it? Like a Level 8?
“Hmph, this is it…?”
“Tsk… Cry? Are you trying to test my patience!?”
See, I knew he would get angry. What should I do? I sighed deeply and told Gark-san who was holding his anger. It is time that we talk constructively.
“Well, well, Gark-san, stay calm. It is not the time to be impatient yet. I will read the document immediately. Is there anything else?”
“Tsk… Those above are starting to run out of patience… They want to know what you know.”
Aaaah… So, it came down to this. I want to know it too. We are stuck. There is nothing I can do. However, I don’t have the courage to tell that to Gark-san who has almost reached his boiling point. I should buy some time…
I pretend to be in deep though and tilt my head and answer.
“You are right… I will need some help… Probably.”
Ark or my childhood friend who are in an expedition. If they come back, I feel that everything will work out fine. They are loved by the goddess of destiny. I am sure they will, one day, be sung as a Hero. Not only they are strong, how to say… Their fates are strong. In a bad way, mine is also strong. Whereas Ark and the others have a high problem-solving ability.
I am sure even this incident, they can somehow manage it. I feel like I said that before but if they can’t do it, then there is nothing that I can do.
To my answer, Gark-san moved his eybrows.
“H… Help, you say? From whom?”
Who indeed? It is a difficult question. I would like to answer with everyone, but I am sure that Gark-san will not accept that.
The safest choice is, needless to say, Ark Rodin. He is in every sense excellent. It is sad that he is not one of 『The Lamenting Ghost』. On the other hand, if we picked from one of the members, Luke and Liz are more muscle brain than Gark-san so they are not suitable for an investigation request. Eliza is a thief, but she is a new member admitted outside, so she won’t listen to my request, so it is NG1. Lucia and Anthem are always calm and dependable, but they are really famous, so they are easy to notice.
Or rather, there is also the incident with the slime, so the obvious choice is Sytry. I want you to come back, Sytry. Final answer.
I somehow turn my sight to the calendar on my desk and answer.
“From Sytry. … She is probably coming back soon.”
Or rather, you can say that she is late. The day I circled on the calendar is the day I expected their return, but it is long past. Let’s check on them If they are not back after waiting for a while. If something happens, I can’t abandon them.
Gark made a rough expression.
“… Sytry? … Speaking of which, it seems that she is hostile against Akasha… Is it not good if it isn’t Sytry? When is she coming back? If you need an Alchemist for something, I can call some people…”
“I am back.”
!?
A familiar voice and appearance shows up and enters. Gark-san vigorously turns around and caught sight of her appearance.
She has the same eyes and pink blond hair color as Liz. Her height is a little bit taller than her sister, Liz. Is it because she wears plain color cloaks or is it because she is calmer than Liz, she looks smaller than her real height? She is carrying on her back a big backpack, and contrary to the regular waist belt that Hunter carry, she is carrying two large potion bags on her waist. She doesn’t have a wand. Sytry’s role isn’t to fight. She is the command tower. From preparation to extermination, she is the support MVP2. She is the one who collects information on Shrine for 『Strange Grief | the Lamenting Ghost』.
Sytry Smart. It was the arrival of the Hunter I had been waiting for.
She doesn’t have a speck of dust on her, nothing has changed on her since she left the Imperial Capital. Looks like she was fine.
“Welcome home, Sytry.”
I wave my hands, while feeling relieved.
But it is really a convenient timing. I hope you weren’t eavesdropping outside. It was the same for Gark-san, maybe it is better to change the door for a soundproof one.
For some reason, Sitry comes toward me with a mysterious look. She made a small bow when she passes in front of Gark-san who is still shock and passed next to Kaina-san and Eva who are silent and stood before me with a teary eye.
“Cry-san, you are too overprotective. Even if you didn’t do that, I will not let him run away.”
“????????? Ah, yes. Sorry?”
You came back and this is the first thing you say? But what are you talking about? Did I do something?
“Because of you, Cry-san, everything is ruined. I was thinking of persuading him to give himself up… I want you to hold back a little. Doing it like this… Even I can sympathize.”
“What are you talking about?”
To me who doesn’t understand the situation Sytry said something unbelievable.
“I am talking about the 『Tower of Akasha』.”
Gark-san’s expression freezes up. He looks at me, but I have no idea why Sytry will bring that subject up when she just came back.
When I can’t speak any word and can only blink, Sytry lower her bag in front of me, take out a small black bag from it and casually hand it to the stunned Gark.
Something like anger oozes out of her action but it is not scary as she doesn’t have the same pressure as her sister.
“The culprit has been caught and is downstairs. As Cry-san overdid it, if you are not too fast, he might die.”
“Tsk… Kaina, let’s go! Oi Cry. You will tell me all the story later! Let’s hurry!”
Gark-san takes Kaina-san and hurriedly leave the clan master room. The one who were left was me who doesn’t understand what happen, Eva with a contemplation look, and Sytry who knows about the situation and seems to have already caught the main culprit despite just coming back.
…It’s impossible. She is too excellent. What is going on with our members? It is true that is said I need Sytry’s help by I didn’t mean it this way. I said their fates is strong but isn’t it too strong?
Sytry is silent, waiting for my words.
As the result of wondering what to I should say, I decided to forget everything that is worrying me. I stand up and spread my arm in front of Sytry.
We can think about the magic organization or the slime later. Right now, we should celebrate her return.
No matter what they say, all I can do is to wait for the Hero’s return and that’s it.
I smile and again clearly told Sytry.
“Welcome back Sytry, I am glad you are safe.”
“Yes. I am back Cry-san…”
Thank you for reading! Finally, the second arc is over but looks like the misunderstanding deepen poor Cry saying random things always help him even if he doesn’t want it XD Cry can’t even appreciate the work of others because they think he is ridiculing them because he found everything immediately XD When he talks about Eliza, he means she wasn’t part of his childhood friend circle, but she joined them during their journey. Okay first objective is completed: End the 2nd arc Redshare404 left. New objective: Let’s aim for arc 3 completion! There’s 41 Chapter let’s hope for the best! I’m going to take 2 or 3 day break before starting Arc 3. See you then! Tchao à plus!
