What are you here for? Did you come in to see if I was working? Initially, I should be bowing to you and because of the debt I can’t raise my head even more. I am really sorry for the inconvenience.

As I made a Dogeza in my heart, Eva reports to me with her same expression as usual.

“Last time, Branch Chief Gark has contacted us, it is about “Fallen Mist (Thunder Dragon’s Mist)” … Apparently, they calmed down for the time being.”

!?

For a moment, I couldn’t understand. It is too unexpected that my facial muscle froze.

I mean, I never thought that he would nail it so well. After all, they were picking a fight in a Tavern and a city, they visited for the first time. If “Strange Grief” was in the same position as the “Fallen Mist” they would have never stayed put.

It so normal that it is shocking. I suppress my confusion with all my might but the voice that came out is trembling.

“…… Eh, ehh. He is admirable.”

“… Well, even though they are from a remote country they are still Level 7.”

What about our party then!? Is our party more bloodthirsty than those thugs! Maybe in the Mist Country, Hunters have a higher ethical level than those in the Imperial Capital? … Ah, no more. I want to retire.

No, wait. Calm down. Think carefully.

Whether he made them stay put or they thought they were fighting a losing battle. Whatever the reason is if that made them calm then it is for the best. The situation is very troubling but, the “Fallen Mist” seems more stable than “Strange Grief”.

“They haven’t even been in the Imperial Capital for a week, it is not good to be in the radar of the Explorer Association. It looks like they restrained themselves, I think they won’t make any disturbance for a while.”

When Eva is wearing her uniform neatly from head to toes, her words are very persuasive.

This is an opportunity. I stand up and quickly equip the Relics lined up on the desk. Finally, I wear the unidentified dark bracelet in my right wrist and I am ready to go. The sun is still high and the temperature is just right. It is a nice weather for a walk.

“I am briefly going to 『Magiz Tail』. There are some Relics that need to be appraised or it will be bad.”

There isn’t a better chance than now as Arnold calmed down. The guard is… Well, let’s randomly take someone who is available in the Lounge. If the opponent isn’t Level 7, then it will be manageable one way or another. Initially, it is the Relic Tino found, if Tino was there, it will be alright …

When Eva heard the name of my favorite Relics shop, she frowns and stares at me.

“I think that Cry-san have at least understood but… Please don’t waste your money. You have a ten-digit debt, you know?”

It seems she doesn’t trust me at all. Well, many of my collection were suddenly brought at 『Magiz Tail』 so it can’t be helped. Even for me, I won’t increase my debt and immolate myself after the conversation yesterday. Where else is there a Hunter with a ten-digit debt and have their Vice Clan Master manage it?

I grin and smiles then answer with a thumbs up.

“It is okay. In the first place, I don’t have any money in my wallet.”

It has been almost empty since I returned the money for the drinks to Sytry. The appraisal is going to be fine. My Level 8 can make it fine!

With swift movement, Eva takes my wallet which I have thrown on the desk, and silently look inside. Her eyes open widely, and her lips were shaking.

She is looking at me as if she was looking at an idiot.

“It… It is, really empty… You… You did well to survive.”

“Because I don’t go out much.”

“Mo1! You can only buy three breads!? As expect, with only this… I will replenish it a little bit.”

Eva rushed out with my empty wallet. I am really sorry to bother you again and again.

The main street is just in front of the Clan House. Even if there are multiple large carriages passing through there is still plenty of room, this street is one of the arteries of the Imperial Capital. The traffic doesn’t stop during the day and even at night. Near the entrance, I am hiding in the shadow of the foliage, Tino who was watching outside rushed over.

Just the other day, because of my childhood friend, she lived something terrible. But her behavior doesn’t make you feel that something had happen to her. She is dress as usual, a short pants that are overly light as if to emphasize her legs and a black jacket. My outfit doesn’t change much but Tino is mostly the same.

Tino reports in a quiet voice.

“Master, I can’t see any suspicious shadows. As far as I can tell, though.”

“Let’s go through the backroad.”

As a representative of the weak, I never forget to be on alert on any circumstances.

The opponent have a bigger number, the leader is a giant, even if he is high-level, I don’t think a “Swordsman (Kenshi)” can avoid Tino’s eyes who is specialize as a “Thief (Tozoku)”. I did everything I can. My word are kind of like doubting Tino’s search skills but my straightforward junior nod without discomfort.

“As expect of Master. Even when hunting a Sand Rabbit, a Dragon uses all his power. Is what you are doing, right?”

“Un, un, you are right.”

She kind of have a high tension today. But I don’t think a Dragon will uses all his power to hunt a Sand Rabbit. The energy consumption is too inefficient. It isn’t worth it, if it gives his all against one Rabbit.

Tino doesn’t make a big deal of my random answer and hold her hands tight and lift the end of her lips. Somehow those gesture overlaps with Liz’s figure.

“Don’t worry. We have diligently told them how great Master is to those bumpkins.”

“Hmm.”

“In the first place, it would be foolish to do something when Onee-sama is here. At this hour, they are probably trembling because of Master’s awesomeness.”

It is a poor-quality joke because she doesn’t look like she is joking. I understand the first half, but I have no idea about the second half. What is my awesomeness… I don’t know what you talked about, but it is to the point where I want you to tell it to me.

I have no time, so I have no choice but to ignore those words and leave the Clan House.

It has been a long time since I went outside at this time. The weather is sunny. I shake a little bit because of the slight chilly air and start walking next to the wall with my small guard. Although there are still many passersby, as Tino reported there is no sign of Arnold and his friends. There is no reaction from the danger detection Relics.

After checking it, I take a deep breath. I am not that nervous when I am with Liz or Sytry (I am nervous in another sense though), after all doesn’t that mean that Tino isn’t enough to reassure my small little heart.

I carefully go through the town. Maybe because the sun is still high, the number of passersby is high, but Treasure Hunters’ figure isn’t visible. I ask Tino, who is next to me looking excited.

“By the way, do you know where Liz is right now?”

“… If you are talking about Onee-sama then… She couldn’t break the Golem before, so she will show you that she can do it next time, so she pulled Sytry Onee-sama and started a special training. Right now, they should be at the instructor’s place.”

In the first place, the job of a thief is not to defeat the enemy… Liz really hate to lose. The instructor will probably be in trouble. Even though they have the greatest skills in the Imperial Capital. Since Liz has inherited of the name “Severed Shadow” they are kind of giving a preferential treatment to her.

Following this, Tino said with a weak expression and a weak voice.

“And I have been… told to doing self-training.”

She looks so pitiful that I can only give a funny smile. There is a limit in laissez-faire. Tino is also talented so it is fine if she goes with you.

“I will tell it to Liz next time. If you do a special training, take Tino with you.”

“!? Plea, please stop it! I will die!”

“I will tell her to be careful to not let you die.”

“…. Ma, Master. Master, should be, a little more, gentle, to me.”

“Eh?”

I am trying to be as kind as possible, but for some reason Tino was weeping. What do you want me to do?

Then after taking many turns on the muddy backroad and making more detour than usual, we safely arrive at the store. Quietly standing on a street just off the main street of the Imperial Capital, is a famous store known only by those who know of it. With a quiet exterior that goes straight on, there is a small signboard that you can’t see unless you look carefully.

Relic Expertise Shop 『Magiz Tail』.

When I came to the Imperial Capital, the one who took care of me the most after Gark, Ark and Eva is the Ji-san who is running the store.
