“Steadying are financial problem has been coming up.”
Alto said so with a heavy voice. Our eager searching for the devil king’s forces did not produce any results. And finally the day has come where our fund are drying up.
Everybody was quiet.
“Somebody needs to head back to the capital and petition for more funding. . . . I can do it, but what about anybody else?”
That is quite a big task to complete and would were us thing, but someone had to do it. I think that even if you go quickly by foot and even do it all through the night it would take at least 3 days to get to the capital from here. Moreover you have to flatter and suck up the nobles to get the funding. And even more if you do succeed, then you’d have to come back here with all that heavy loot and watch out for bandits.
As Alto said though, he could do it and be alright. Although that would be very foolish to do.If they do decide to attack us, fighting without Alto would be disaster.
Alto understands that himself,it seems to be a quite the conundrum . Just judging by his way of talking and expression.
“Should Alto be left behind? It would be really foolish to send away our greatest battle potential.”
Birdie suggested for Alto to stay behind. He can definitely read the atmosphere Alto is producing. However he couldn’t read the sensitivity of women and men.
“Conversely,I think Me and Root should also stay behind.Because we have no battle capacity we would be done in if attacked by bandits.”
“Yeah that’s right, you guys stay here as well.Somebody from one of your four must go as well.”
I am weak, and in a sense it’s a part of my appeal.
Although the real reason was because I hate bowing and suck up to aristocrats and higher ups. I sometimes can’t hold myself back a just speak my mind. Though I also have no fighting capabilities to fight off a bandit by myself.
“I don’t want to go Birdie. I am not confident in my close range battle skill. And wouldn’t you agree that a mage traveling alone would be dangerous?”
“Me too. I have barely any confidence that I would even reach the capital. . . Moreover if I was surrounded by bandit-sans I would definitely lose.”
Although the 2 rear guard people definitely can’t do melee combat, they are definitely taking advantage of that.Their true intention is that their ultra lovely Alto-sama might be taken away if they were to leave. And they can absolutely not allow that to happen.
“Last time the higher ups would glare at me to make sure I wouldn’t make a pass at women or vice versa, they didn’t like me. In short, Rin or Mamya I beg for one of you guys to go.”
“Birdie, what are you saying !?”
I have not heard of such a story. Although if it is true, it may be impossible to send this guy. . . .Although it might just be made up so he doesn’t have to go.Even though he may be more qualified to go.
“. . . . . .No.I will not be separated from Alto, no.”
“I-I even though that is so! Ray, you always gloat about being able to fight in close combat fighting!”
Rin and Mamya naturally are going to resist desperately.Such an ugly event is going to happen again. . .
The young girl Rin grabbed Alto’s hand and just refuses to be separated from Alto.Rin is a thief and specializes in many different things. Mainly in scouting/spying learning enemy movements, and attacking in the shadows plus being able to fight when a battle starts to happen. Out of the group she is much younger than me and is the youngest member, she is 12 years old. She usually acts like a spoiled brat when she is with Alto.She seems to have feelings for Alto. Although it may just be as an older brother type of love and not the other kind.(オレより年下の12歳。)(TN:just need to make sure about the age.Might even say 12 years younger.)
The other woman named Mamya with her long light brown hair hanging down her back.Is a master swordsman who fights alongside Birdie in the vanguard. Though unfortunately she is out matched by Alto. Alto is just too OP. At the Royal dojo she was a genius swordsman called “God’s’ sword”. And was well known as one of the strongest swordsman in the country.Although sadly now she has settled down to being a harem member for Alto.
“In the first place! Now that we are out of money, Is it suspicious it happened after some idiot visited dubious shops? Shouldn’t that idiot take responsibility!?”
“Cause it seems like you guys were out all night again this time. Are you reflecting properly?”
. . . . .It came up.
“You can call me an idiot, but I only used my pocket money.”
“You shouldn’t use it in the first place.At best it’s about 500g at least.”
By the way,500g is around 50,000yen(USD 500$~) .When we left the capital we had 10,000g. So in short even if it was 500g in the grand scheme of things shouldn’t matter that much. And the amount spent doesn’t go to 1,000g even if 2 people go together.
. . . . . Wait, then why did our saving run out so fast? It was meant as a saving for the 8 of us to last several months.
“. . . . . Hey,~ Ladies. There is a famous perfume place near the red-light district. You guys have been smelly really good recently. By any chance have you guys been?. . .”
And with Biride’s words, All four of the girls went pale.
“H-hey, Oi, Birdie! Its sexual harassment to go around smelling women!”
“. . . .I bought it last. I got scolded for it but everybody else bought it secretly.”
“Rin-chan! It’s different.This is a necessary expenses. . .”
“In short. Women are creatures that must take care of certain things, so it can’t be helped.”
“You guys were embezzling it!”
This is awful. They were acting to nonchalantly and trying to push the blame to us. And all this just to look good in front of Alto?
“All of you guys did it!?!No wonder are funds were strangely and quickly diminishing.”
“”S-sorry””
“I won’t accept your sorrys! Because we have got funds from the taxpayers and capital. So doesn’t that mean we must work and be worthy of those funds?and then you guys, were using all of those funds!”
“Well, the perfume was quite expensive. . . . .”
“Even so, to embezzle those fund!?!”
Root is rightfully quite pissed. I am also quite mad.
“. . . .So, who will go?”
Before Root can start his lengthy scolding. Birdie cut in and brought us back to the topic at hand.
“Surely the first person who got the perfumes, Ray should go! Ray, you can do melee battles against earth dolls fine. Are you not a qualified person!?”
“Haa!? Don’t joke around you burdening swordsman! You also took the funds! I know you have bought hair stuff, with new hair clips. You were flaunting it around and showing it off to Alto.”
“T-That I bought with my own money!You don’t have anything on me!”
“. . .I bought some perfume, but it was really weak. So therefore that wasn’t bad?”
“You still bought it! You would be able to do the round-trip quickly. So Rin-chan should do it!”
“What this female fox is leaving out!. . . .You would definitely be able to easily get the money.And it would be good way to tighten your slack body like that. . . “
“I am not slack!”
Welp, it started again. Whenever these four people face each other it ends up like this. Alto just like always looks nervous and can’t be counted on. Birdie and Root just sigh in acceptance of the situation. Well these guys know that they can’t break up it.It may just backfire in fact.
While we’re at it I should introduce some of the girls.I’ll introduce the young girl who was recently yelling and has a proud tone. Her name is Ray, she has short blue hair and adorable red iris,wearing a similar mage robe to mine but its black.She is an extremely rare mage, who combines fire,lightning, earth water, wind, etc. and uses all of them plus combinations of them. Her long range fire attacks are top-class. The only thing comparable to her distance fire power. . . . Is our leader, Alto.Alto’s strength is really weird.
On the opposite side of her, is a beautiful woman named Yuri with a polite tone, covered in a dressed as a nun with a hood on top of her head. She is a wonderful sister with a large bust,which troubles many men who see it, and can even solve a lot of disputes.Her role for the party, with addition to attack magic with a holy attribute to it. She can also assist the party with simply recover magic, and barrier magic.She is a master of a lot of support magic.I am usually in the back lines with her and we assist Birdie and Mamya a lot. And sometimes each other.
By the way, the person who taught Yuri recovery magic was me. It is beneficial to both of us,because we can heal each other if we ever get in a pinch.
Although these 4 girls go nuclear sometimes, When they are fighting together their unstoppable, in fact no organization could win against our party. The eight of us with the highest specialization in the country can work as a team perfectly. We should be able to take on the devil king.
However, that may not be so. Even though they don’t quarrel and fight during a battle, it seems that cooperation and trust come from the bottom of the heart.And it seems somewhere in their hearts they have mutual hostility to each other. . . . .All because they have romantic feelings towards Alto. . .
Alto is the main fighting power of this party, and is also its biggest shackle. . .Once more if Alto just chooses someone all this will eventually settle down.ButAlto himself is just so thick headed! What’s the deal with that!?
The ugly dispute continued until the night, we weren’t able to bring reason or anything. Eventually we went lord of this region who was much closer by and explained the situation(leaving out some stuff) and even helped carrying back.(オレ達の事情を言わずとも汲んでくれていたこの地方の領主さんが、わざわざ出向いてきて追加資金を運んできてくれるまで続いた。)(TN:just to make sure I got the solution right.)
The lords were serious and good people. Though my face cheeks feel thin.
