“Ah? A swordsman stronger than Luke-chan came out? What is that… It is unfair!”
Liz slams her finished mug on the table and says with a sword-like glow in her eyes. Sytry giggles at her a sister, point the middle of her left arm with her finger.
“Onee-chan you went back too soon so… Luke-san was incredibly pleased… The moment he saw the opponent holding a sword, he jumps in alone and I got a hit there … I know the opponent was not a human, but I got careless.”
As usual, it is a crazy conversation.
High-Level Hunters are monsters but the Shrines those Hunters capture have 『Phantom (Illusion) 』also as strong as them.
Therefore, Hunters who are always in the front line and betting their life are respected.
Even if Luke is a man who burns his soul in the path of the sword, even if he is called as one of the best swordsmen in the Imperial Capital, meeting in the deepest place of a high-level Shrine a monster defying common sense was bad luck.
In particular for “Strange Grief (The Lamenting Ghost)” as they are constantly challenging Shrine close to their limits, this is even more true. This time it is 【Myriad Demon Castle】a Level 8 Shrine. “Strange Grief” doesn’t have the proper level to capture it.
At first, I was frightened by my explosives friends but now I believe in their ability and I try not to say anything unless it is something big. I am at least the Party Leader. Luke are the others are defiant, but they listen to my words. That is why, as I am half an outsider, I have to speak the bare minimum.
Although I heard the 【Myriad Demon Castle】 situation from Liz, she leaves a lot of details so, the new information brought by Sytry are very helpful.
On our table, the dishes ordered by Tino were laid out in a platter. They brought us a mountain of fried chicken and fried potatoes. Crispy grilled meat on a bone and Fish and Chips. Pasta with meat sauce on another platter. For me alone, there is enough for me to eat for a week. Just by looking at it, my stomach is full.
The potatoes are covered. And there is no salad. There aren’t enough vegetables…
When Sytry-chan empties her mug in a breath, she exhales a small yet somewhat sexy breath. However, you can’t see in her eyes any sign of being drunk. Golden Ale has ale in his name, but the alcohol level is over thirty. It is a drink even Hunters can get drunk. What is going on inside the body of a Hunter? Even Tino who quietly puts her mouth on the extra size mug has drunk approximatively the same amount.
Liz vigorously grabbed the roasted brown meat on a bone which come from an unknow beast and munch it with excitement. Sytry with an elegant motion cuts the steak with a knife and fork. If the steak wasn’t as big as a lump of meat, it might have been called an aristocratic behavior.
They are such big eaters, it fit if you called them Gluttonous. Where on earth does the foods you eat disappear to?
No matter how much Liz eat, it looks like her stomach is never full. And it doesn’t seem like she gets fat no matter how much she eats. When Liz notices me looking at her, she leans on me and hug my arm. She says with a large blossoming smile.
“Hm? Cry-chan, what is wrong? It looks like you aren’t eating.”
It is not like I am not eating. It is Liz and the others who eat too much. The portion is too large. If I eat one fried chicken, I will be full. I am slowly eating it.
Sytry smiles at me when she saw me only eating a little bit.
“If you don’t eat, you won’t have any strength. Even Oni-chan “Heal (Healing Skill)” will be less effective on people who haven’t properly eaten.”
“Ah… This is why when he regrows a hand or a leg, you will get very hungry… Cry-chan, if you don’t eat when you need it, it will be dangerous. I will feed you. Say aaah…”
When comes a time to use it… I definitively don’t want to go there…
Liz licks her lips and holds a potato in front of my eyes. To do such a thing in public, even for me, it is embarrassing. But such an excuse won’t work on Liz’s heart of steel. What was given to me wasn’t a big piece of fried chicken but a fried potato from Liz’s leftovers that even I can eat, I wonder if this is an expression of her kindness.
“Onee-chan, your drinking speed is too fast. There are limits even to a Hunter, are you drunk? What if you fall down like last time?”
“I am all right. Golden Ale is like water! Hey, Cry-chan. Do aaan…”
Without listening to Sytry’s advice, Liz makes a sweet voice with her redden cheeks.
Her chest is tightly pressed against my arm. If she went so far, I can only eat it. Without any option left, I open my mouth, I suddenly notice Tino opening her eyes, next to me.
But her line of sight isn’t on me. She also isn’t looking at Liz or at the potato on Liz’s fork.
“Come on, Cry-chan. Aaan!”
“Ah, un.”
I follow her line of sight while accepting Liz potato. What Tino is looking at is Sytry. Over Liz’s shoulder, you can see her stirring Liz’s Golden Ale with a muddler while smiling.
… Mmh? But Golden Ale isn’t a cocktail…
When I am chewing, there is the strong salty flavor of the potato. Liz finally let go of my arm, I wonder if she was satisfied with that. By the time I finished, Sytry doesn’t have a muddler anymore.
When Liz returns to her seat, Sytry says in a reproving voice.
“Moh1! Onee-chan you are bothering Cry-san again…”
“I am not bothering at all. Right, Cry-chan?
When she asks with such a smile, I can’t shake my head.
“You pamper Onee-chan too much, Cry-san… As expect, you should stop if you are drunk.”
“I am not drunk. Syt, until now, what do you take me for? I have already transcended alcohol…”
Liz drinks the mug in front of her as if to show off. In the hustle and bustle, I can hear Tino making a small voice.
The golden liquid that had been poured disappears quickly within sight. And she slams the empty mug on the table.
“By the way, Syt. You are Akasha’s… Kuh!?”
At that moment, Liz’s body tremble for a moment. The focus on her eyes is blurry, right before she falls down, she holds hard the table and endures it. The piled up empty platters make a loud noise. Her breathing was getting rough. Her eyes wander around as if she couldn’t keep focus.
“See Onee-chan. I told you so…”
Sytry looks amazed, the corner of her eyes lower and she giggles. Liz shook her head and look up a Sytry. It is a sharp line of sight as if she had a grudge.
“Sy,t… You brought it?
“No way… Don’t blame me! In the first place, Onee-chan, didn’t you transcend all kinds of drugs? Right, Ti-chan?”
“I, I… Haven’t seen anything at all.”
Tino holds her mug as if securing it with tears in her eyes, she shakes her head.
Thanks for reading. So, Hunters eat like Luffy but without having their stomach bulging eh. That nice, I also want to eat without caring of getting fat. I was thinking is the meat on the bones, the legendary manga meat? I so want to try it one day. And what happen to Liz? Did it had something to do with Sytry stirring her drink? Will Cry do something about her? You will know in the next part! Tchao à plus!
