Chapter 49
Thanks for reading~
Morning has come. It was quite an enjoyable show.
To think the hero of the sword would persist that much. Seeing the state of her earnestly seducing men without shame or honour gave me much laughter. Well, in the end though, her hard struggle was in vain and she was eaten.
Near the end, the men who lost their reason were too violent, that it wasn't something you could call a woman. That wasn't something that could seduce anyone.
By the way, I disposed the three big men. Killing trash that would a.s.sault a woman as a group of three is what you call doing good for the world and mankind. Besides, I was clad in the smell that those drug addicts hate, but they a.s.saulted me after losing themselves to extreme hunger. The so-called legitimate self-defence.
"Kukuku, ahya, ahyahyahyahyaaa, aa, with this, I completed my revenge on one more person." (Kearuga)
The three heroes I had decided that I would never forgive. The hero of magic, Flare, got her memories wiped and devotes herself to me as my servant. The hero of the sword, Blade, threw away her pride, and continued flirting with men until she died.
The only one who remains is the hero of the gun, *Bullet. Bullet is a muscle daruma with black skin. He's h.o.m.os.e.xual and has a shota fetish. I can't let that thing live either. While disposing of the current demon king for Eve's sake, I will concurrently track that guy's movements. I will definitely kill him. Ah, even now, he gives me nightmares. I will kill that h.o.m.os.e.xual with the most disgusting and worst method. I just need to hold out for a bit longer until my revenge finishes. I will keep working hard after this. Well then. (TL Note: *Bullet. So, in other chapter's, the author writes it as ブレット (bullet), but in this one, the author wrote it as ブレッド (bread). I think it's just a mistake, but the author wrote it like that twice, so idk…)
"【Transformation Heal】" (Kearuga)
Throwing away the Kearura appearance I had depended on for a while, I return to my Kearuga appearance. And then, I change into the clothes I had prepared beforehand.
As I thought, this appearance fits me the best. I should return back to Setsuna and everyone else. It's sunny and I feel good. I also obtained loot; the【G.o.d Made Treasure Tool】. Rather than vaguely making a contract, it's probably better to hold off contracting it until I can get a clear image. I guess I'll make this weapon that's just for me into the best one.
When I return to the inn, Setsuna and Freya greet me.
"Welcome back, Kearuga-sama." (Freya)
"Did your work go well?" (Setsuna)
"Yeah, I did it perfectly. I properly achieved my goal, and I obtained information as well." (Kearuga)
I did it to take revenge, but my official objective was information gathering. I completely peeked through the hero of the sword, Blade's memories.
I found out that three days later, the younger sister princess Norn will make a false accusation against this town's feudal lord and a large-scale clean up task will begin. Until then, I need to earn as much money as possible. Afterwards, I should confirm the sales of the potion with the merchant Caruman without delay, and supply additional goods.
"If they're fast, it seems that this town will be overrun by the Dioral Kingdom's troops in three days. As someone who possesses a heart of justice, I can't overlook this. One way or another, I want to prevent it. If I do that, I'll become a wanted man, so I should prepare to escape." (Kearuga)
If this town which I'm attached to is destroyed, I'll have no choice but to take revenge. … Especially on the day when Caruman, the merchant I trust and became friendly with is killed, the gentle Kearuga-sama will quickly change into a ruthless revenge demon.
"Nn. Preparations will be made." (Setsuna)
"Yes, we need to replenish plenty of things that are necessary for travelling ahead of time." (Freya)
Since the two of them have gotten accustomed to travelling, they can think about various things themselves and take action.
"However, it is regrettable. You already returned to your usual appearance, even though
Freya and Setsuna disappointedly look at my face. These guys are quite rude. Even though I unexpectedly quite like this Kearuga face. Since they are saying that much, next time I will do some malicious play with them in Kearura's appearance next time. Since Kearura can't change gender, I properly have 'that' as well.
"That's right, Freya, is this dress necessary?" (Kearuga)
I take out the dress that was necessary for sneaking into the high cla.s.s bar as Kearura. I most likely won't ever wear that again, and it's too big for Setsuna or Eve, so if I were to give it to someone, it would be Freya.
"Um, I appreciate the thought… but the chest." (Freya)
Hearing those words, I look at Freya's breast. Yeah, this is impossible. No matter how much she tries, the size is too different.
"It's regrettable, but we should sell this. It will probably become dirt cheap though." (Kearuga)
Freya is reluctantly looking at the dress. However, it can't be helped. Things that can't go in just can't go in.
We finished lunch, so together with Eve, we went outside as a four. It's for the sake of preparing for our journey. To earn those campaign funds, we are heading to Caruman's place. Plenty of potions for restocking are inside my pouch. If the potions are selling, these additional ones should be able to be bought as well. Now, I wonder what our sales are.
"Oh, I was waiting for you lad. The potions are all sold out. It was quite difficult as the people who actually used it in the morning rushed in, asking if there are any more. They are expecting the additional stock." (Caruman)
"That's great. I properly brought them." (Kearuga)
Just as planned, it seems the potions have sold like crazy. I exchange the contents of my bag with gold coins. If I have this much, I won't have any troubles with money for a while. I have a friendly chat with Caruman.
"Hohou, it's surprising to see first-cla.s.s potions in a town like this."
One gentleman in his prime calls out to me from my back.
"Oh, you over there, you have quite good eyes. We're the only people in this town who are selling potions of this quality." (Caruman)
I turn slightly pale. This guy is the superhuman that noticed my observation when the Dioral Kingdom's chivalric order came to this town.【Hawk Eye】. He's wearing plain clothes right now, but even in his plain clothes, they are red and stylish clothing. … The biggest problem, is that even in this moment, I have not dropped my guard, yet I wasn't able to notice him approach us. The three great men. It seems he's a monster beyond my imagination.
"Are you the producer of these potions?"
It's pointless to deceive him, so I nod.
"At such a young age, it is quite admirable. You are quite a skilled alchemist. I would certainly like to invite you to our house. After all, not only are you an alchemist, but you are also a talented person whose speciality is peeking and can fight quite well."
Reflexively jumping back, I rest my hand on my sword. My instinct made me do that. As I thought, it wasn't a coincidence that our eyes met. He was able to perceive me from that distance huh.
"As expected, your reactions are good. Feeling just a slight bloodl.u.s.t, you entered combat readiness in an instant. I am increasingly becoming pleased with you. I am a knight, Trist Orugan. I was granted【Hawk Eye】as my second name. How is it? You will be able to splurge your wages." (Trist) (TL Note: Refers to himself as wagahai.)
"I refuse. I like going on unfettered journeys." (Kearuga)
"That is unlucky. Leaving that aside, we should do work. Could you answer why you were looking at us from far away?" (Trist)
"… I am a travelling alchemist. If such a large army appears in the town in groups, I would be on guard. It's not weird if you think about wanting to gather information." (Kearuga)
"Indeed, it is exactly as you say. However, I will give you one warning. You should stay away from actions that will be misunderstood, because we will have to make suitable correspondence. A young, talented person is a country's treasure, so plucking it would hurt my heart." (Trist)
There was ghastliness in those few words. This man is considerably capable. I don't have the confidence to be able to win against him directly in a fight. And also, surprise attacks also seem difficult. I can't find any distinct weaknesses like I did with the hero of the sword.
"I'll be careful. Thanks for the warning." (Kearuga)
"It is a good thing you are obedient. Merchant, I will take ten recovery potions and fatigue potions." (Trist)
"Alright." (Caruman)
Like that,【Hawk Eye】purchased the potions and left. Setsuna pulls on my s.h.i.+rttail.
"That person, amazing expert. Looking at him makes Setsuna tremble." (Setsuna)
Hou, so Setsuna understands it huh.
"Who do you think is stronger between me and him." (Kearuga)
'In pure strength, Kearuga-sama. But there's something deep about him.You probably can't win." (Setsuna)
"I'm of the same opinion." (Kearuga)
I should be able to overwhelm him in physical ability. The abilities of heroes that dwell in this body exceed him. Even so, for some reason I don't feel like I can win.
I feel depressed. The biggest obstacle when I'm killing princess Norn is that guy. It will require much effort to evade his watch and kill princess Norn.
However, I can't not do it. My suspicion that she's the true mastermind behind the attack against my birthplace is extremely high, and she's the incarnation of evil who's trying to burn this town that I have gradually become to like. As someone whose sense of justice is overflowing, I can't overlook this. If I leave her alive, one by one, disasters will be born!
There are three more days until they start moving. During that time, I will make various plans. For example, it might be good to borrow the missing hero of the sword's appearance. If it's that woman, I should be able to easily go into the center department. … For the time being, I should think about it later.
"Thanks Caruman. With this, we have enough campaign funds." (Kearuga)
"Lad, I'm also grateful since I was able to earn a lot. I'm counting on you for the additional supply tomorrow." (Caruman)
"Of course." (Kearuga)
I split up with the merchant. Now, we've earned our campaign funds, so we should buy plenty of things.
"Kearuga-sama, the skewers being sold at that cart look delicious." (Setsuna)
"We don't have enough spare underwear, so it would help if we could buy some more, but…" (Freya)
"Buy me the knife you promised. There was a cute one over there." (Eve)
It seems Setsuna and co have found the main goods. I finished a big job of disposing the hero of the sword at great pains, so we can at least enjoy ourselves for today. And then, from tomorrow, we will become hunters that are aiming for a new target.
