Strange Grief Wants to Retire ~ The Weakest Hunter Dreams of a Hero ~

Chapter 361.1: After the War



Chapter 361.1: After the War

Yggdra, the hometown of Spirit People. A city built deep in the forest and mysteriously protected is a beautiful city rich in nature, but at the same time, it is a desolate city with almost no inhabitants.

However, right now, Yggdra is in a state of excitement. The Spirit People who have been evacuated returned all at once, and a feast is being prepared on the streets that had been deserted for a long time.

Spirit People hate fire. Instead, it is water, wind, and flowers that decorate the feast. The decorations themselves arent flashy, but everyone who gathers there is a Spirit People known for their beautiful appearance, and looking at them makes me feel like I have wandered into a fairyland. I have visited many places around the world since becoming a Hunter, but this is the first time I have seen something like this.

The Yggdras warriors who had gone missing. The first one returned a while after the Black World Tree stopped moving and we returned to Yggdra. Since then, Yggdras warriors have returned one after another. They are the people whom the Black World Tree absorbed the Mana Materials from and threw them away. I didnt have time to check if they were okay, but apparently they were fine.

Yggdra was immediately excited by the further good news that came after the successful operation to weaken the Treasure Shrine. It is at such a level that the people of Yggdra, who hate humans, have hardly ever been seen since we arrived in Yggdra and never exchange a word with each other even on the rare occasion when we see them, did a 180 en masse.

Serene narrows her eyes as if she is looking at something dazzling, looks at Yggdra which is now in a completely cheerful mood, and says.

It is a miracle. Human. This is a miracle. I never thought that those I had given up for so long would come backI cannot thank you enough. (Serene)

Ahaha I was just lucky. If you want to thank someone, you should tell that to the Black World Tree. (Cry)

What can I say, I am quite perplexed as I am someone who hasnt done anything, but as long as the result is good, alls well that ends well. I am glad to see a smile back on their faces. I dont need any thanks No, seriously.

Ruin crosses their arms and sighs deeply.

The Black World Tree What an ominous name. What a blasphemous deed to do to try to imitate the World Tree Normally, this is something I cannot overlook, but since we have been saved, I guess I should swallow my anger. (Ruin)

Lets not get into the details right now. Infinite Variety (Senpen Banka), I am so glad I trusted you and did not ignore Elizas letter. In less than a month, you have learned everything and solved all our problems. We, people of Yggdra, will never forget this favor. (Serene)

No Is there anything that I have solved? Well, if you only consider the results, it might have worked out, but the scary thing is that I dont remember taking any productive action. Please say your thanks to Sytry.

It seems like it is going to become my achievement, so I clear my throat and try to cover it.

No, not everything has been resolved yet (Cry)

At any rate, in the end, it seems like the manipulation of the earths vein went fairly well, and the warriors from Yggdra who had gone missing have returned. However, the issue of the World Trees rampaging behavior has not been completely resolved, and well, although it may be fine as the destruction of the World Tree is still a long way off, the biggest issue we must not forget is that Lukes curse has not yet been dispelled yet.

Heck, have Liz and the others completely forgotten about Luke? Maybe they trust him but you know Serene nods with a serious expression at what I said.

Thats right I am also curious about what is going on with Night Parade (Hyakki Yako). (Serene)

No, you dont need to care about that. I dont need their power anymore. (Cry)

They must have gotten scared midway through the strategy, or perhaps they got fed up with my incompetence and ran away. I am not really interested in them. A Bandit who disappeared is a good bandit.

Human, if that is what you think, then that is probably true. For now, lets eat, rest, and nourish our spirits. Now that Yggdras warriors have returned, our available forces have increased. Yggdras soldiers are all mighty warriors with great skill. They will all follow your command. (Serene)

Your self-evaluation is way too high for them to be mighty warriors, even though all of them went missing. But, well, I have no intention of commanding them, so I wont say anything troublesome.

Un, un, thats right. I will count on you when I need it. (Cry)

IfTheres anything else we can do besides fighting, please let us know. There are many people who have approached me asking if there is anything they can do for their benefactors. (Serene)

Let me see Not really, I think. (Cry)

If I have to ask something, it would be to allow me to create a branch of the Explorers Association so I can maintain my honor with Gark-san, but it would be cruel to ask that from Yggdra, who has always rejected visitors. It seems like they are showing Sytry, Lucia, and the rest, Spirit Peoples treasured books, so there is nothing I really want more than that. In the first place, it is not like we are here to help you, you know.

As I hold back my aching chest from the excessive evaluation and petty guilt, the Treasure Shrine investigation team, made up of Yggdras scouts and led by Liz and Eliza, returns. At first, it was just Tino, Liz, and Eliza who were investigating, but it has now grown into quite a large group.

Cry-chaaaan, the barrier is gone! (Liz)

The pressure is lessening. I dont think we can hope for the Treasure Shrine to disappear, but There are hardly any Phantoms, so we can invade now. (Eliza)

To think a Treasure Shrine can really be weakened, Sytry is really amazing. Is it possible that I have Sytry who can pull it off this time with me? It is good news that the barrier has disappeared. All that is left to do is break into the treasure room and have Serene lift Lukes curse.

The Phantoms remaining in the Treasure Shrine are probably weakened by Sytrys strategy. The only problem is the Phantom of a god that has looked at us through the mirror.

Eliza, do you think the Phantom of a god is still there? (Cry)

There is a high possibility that it has disappeared. Bosses are the first ones to disappear when they dont have enough Mana MaterialsBut (Eliza)

(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});

But, what? (Cry)

In response to my question, Eliza strokes her bare leg with her palm and says with a troubled expression.

But, I have A very bad feeling. (Eliza)

Elizas bad premonitions are always a hit. A lot has happened since we came to Yggdra, but is there still more to come? I want to go home right now

Cry-chan, were all ready for the invasion, yknow? Ti is also very motivated, so we can go tonight, right? Wouldnt it be better to conquer it quickly before something happens? The other sides probably still confused now (Liz)

Well, that is one way to think about it. No, but well, if you are leaving right away, the time to prepare will be that much shorter I am the Leader of Strange Grief (Nageki no Borei). The opportunities to hunt with Liz and the others have been decreasing significantly recently, but if I am around, I am the one to make the final decision.

What about Sytry? (Cry)

She said shell follow Cry-chans opinion. (Liz)

Liz, Tino, and all the Yggdra warriors are all waiting for my decision. Well, here I am with two choices with no right answer. And when I am forced to choose between two choices, I usually choose the one to put it off until later. There is no need to immediately go to war when the missing people are happy to be back. We need to prepare and I want to rest a little.

Well, I wont accompany you to lift the curse, tho But there are a lot of people going, so I cannot not go, right?

Right No, lets do it tomorrow. The situation might improve if we give it some time Be prepared so there wont be any problems even if something happens. (Cry)

(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});

Liz probably doesnt have a solid basis for saying we should leave immediately. Liz says cheerfully without questioning my decision.

Roooger that! Cry-chan, by the way You will give me a chance to play an active role too, right? Neee? Even though there was the cursed-related commotion the other day, I was the only one who didnt do anything big, arent they all unfair? Even Ti seems to be accompanying Cry-chan all the time. (Liz)

O-Onee-sama!? Thats not (Tino)

Why do you want to get in so much trouble? From my point of view, I think Liz is doing a great job by scouting and doing other things this time as well, but are you saying that is not enough? Besides, it is not like I dont want to have Liz accompany me. It is just that Liz, who is always at the forefront, and I, who is always at the back, dont fit well together

I put my hand on Lizs head and say with a badass smile.

Well, I will let you go on a rampage tomorrow So look forward to it. (Cry)
