Chapter 76
Well, a few minutes after Guren-san announced the end of the Extermination Operation, all of the adventurer’s left the Stone Forest, and started to return to Forxx.
The only ones left were; Me, Iguru, and Marubuta.
In other words,
"Ok. Iguru-kun, Marubuta-kun, are you done with your preparations?"
When I said so, both of them started trembling,
"Please go slowly Yuma…."
"Aniki, I leave it to you."
And then, I carried the two of them in the same way as I did previously,
"Ah, leave it to me, i’ll make sure to decrease my speed from last time to half."
When I said so, although they heard it, they completely ignored me,
"Alright, let’s go!"
And then, I started running toward Forxx at half my normal speed. Once again, the two started to scream loudly, but they soon quieted down.
After a few minutes after I started running, we arrived safely at Forxx.
"Umu, as expected, this took quite a long time than going my normal speed. Well, we made it here anyway."
When I said that, both of them immediately refuted back.
"H-Have we arrived? I feel somewhat used to this now…….."
"That’s right……..Aniki slowed down quite a bit from last time, this helped us remain conscious."
Fumu, it seems that this time, both of them were able to properly remain conscious. I then slowly placed down the two that I was carrying on my shoulders to the ground.
And then, the three of us entered Forxx by going through the city gate.
"Well, what will the two of you do know? I plan to go to the guild just like this and ask for the c.o.c.katrice to be dismantled."
When the two of them heard it,
"Well, I am actually very tired today, so I am going to head back to Zinnia first."
"Aniki, I have a little work with the blacksmith, so I will catch up with you later."
Hmm, is that so?
"Then, I guess this is goodbye, see you next time Iguru and Marubuta."
And then, the two of them left,
Well, I will meet up with Iguru at dinner anyway, so I headed toward the guild.
After a few minutes,
"Ok, i’ve finally arrived. The inside seems to be quite noisy for some reason."
The adventurers who partic.i.p.ated in the Extermination Strategy have yet to return, so I find it a little strange that the inside is no noisy. Well~, let’s just enter for now.
And then, I opened the door to the guild and entered inside, when I heard,
"Oi! If it isn't Yuma! It’s been awhile."
Quite the nostalgic voice called out to me, and so when I looked toward the direction of the sound, a nostalgic face appeared in my view.
"Oi, I was wondering who it was, but if it isn't Guresu-san. It's been awhile."
Ah, it’s really nostalgic. Well~, in reality, I had only known him for a week, but
"Ouu! It seems that you have grown quite strong in the short span of time I took my eyes off you, Yuma! I heard that you went ahead and took down the Gortorisu and a Cyclops all by yourself."
"Ha ha, Well~, well, I did struggle quite a bit with the Cyclops, even though I was quite careful to not let it land a hit on me at all."
"Ha! You're quite something to have survived an ordeal like that. But still, by the time that I was in Nas.h.i.+ssu to help the top gather, I was about to return back, when I heard the news that the Great Invasion was already over! It was seriously a little startling!"
Aa, come to think of it, Guresu-san left to Nas.h.i.+ssu to gather some adventurers to use as support requested by Guresu-san. He went to gather an A-Rank or S-Rank party, but I wonder what happened to that.
When I was thinking about that,
"Hmm, Guresu. Is that kid the adventurer Yuma that you spoke of?"
In that moment, a girl came out from behind the receptionist desk. According to her looks, she had blonde hair, and her eyes were slightly dull, while her body was very small. She was even smaller than Sari and Risa.
But certainly, this girl, only her appearance was that of a child, but for some reason my body was unable to move from her gaze. And then, every step she took, the pressure bearing on me got even stronger.
This girl is probably extremely strong. Her strength compared to a Cyclops seems to be even stronger……..
That girl soon came in front of my sight.
"Hmm, i’ll get nervous if you keep staring at me like that. I did not come here to pick a fight with you, no~. I just came here to speak to the person who singlehandedly stopped the Great Invasion."
Hmm, this girl seems to be quite friendly now.
Then, I should respond in kind, and not speak rudely as well.
"I’m sorry. It was wrong of me to gaze at you so rudely."
And so, I bowed my head to apologize.
And then,
"Yes, as expected, you're quite the well mannered boy, na~. It was as Guresu-san said, and you don’t need to worry about your manners. I just put some pressure on you to test your strength, but it seems that you do have the capability."
TL:Sorry for the error, mate's it's probaly autocorrect
Oi, then that was on purpose!
I thought that she was quite harmless, but it seems that I completely misunderstood. Certainly, this girl is definitely not a young one, the way she speaks is completely the old fas.h.i.+oned way of speaking. She almost speaks in the same manner as Alberto-san……..
Well~, for now, it would be good to introduce myself.
"Nice to meet you, my name is Sato Yuma, Yuma is just fine though. My current adventurer rank is A-Rank. And also, I know that this is rude, but i'm sorry, can I please ask you your name?"
When I said so, the girl was visibly startled.
"Ho, it’s quite unusual that you belong to the guild and yet you haven’t heard my name."
"Ba-san*, I did speak to him during the trip here. It has only been a month since Yuma became an adventurer though. It would be impossible for him to know."
Tl:ba-san means aunt.
And so, Guresu-san stood up for me.
But, what is this about Ba-san?
"Fumu, then it’s quite possible. Then, I shall introduce myself."
Now, who is this person I wonder?
(ED: She’s getting to that, come on man, patience)
"My name is Minarisu Amarnasu. My adventurer name is "s.h.i.+den (Purple Lighting)". And my adventurer rank is S-rank. Nice to meet you too, Headhunter-dono."
S-rank adventurer Minarisu Amarnasu, (Purple lightning)
That was the ident.i.ty of this loli.
(TL: It read little (height) girl. But I just couldn't help myself. Loli-baba)
(ED: Mete really loves Lolis….you should see the Discord server, especially Animal Girl Lolis)
