Chapter 101 Execution  Part 2

Well, it would be fine even if I tell Liz the truth.

I found the answer to my worry and said with a smile.

“Vacation, probably. Ah, this is a secret to everyone else, okay?”

Liz’s eyes shine and as if the impulse she repressed in her small body was released, she hugged me.

As usual her skin that was touching me was burning hot.

“!! That is extremely wonderful! How many people do I need to kill? How many people will you go with? Just me? When are you going? It has really been a while since I went out with Cry-chan, right?”

We won’t kill anyone… And also, there are too many questions.

I think I would be safe if I bring Liz with me but the more escorts I have, the better it is. As this time I am going outside of the Imperial Capital.

That’s right, how about making it a Clan trip? I can’t take with me the clerks as they will need to reject various invitations but it might be nice to go out with all the Members.

From the outside, it will look like I had a good reason to leave as all the Hunters from my Clan will be going with me. Yes, it will be perfect if I think that as a reason to refuse the invitation for the 『White Swords Gathering』.

“I want people who wouldn’t be bothered by it but I want to take as many people as possible. We are going today. You are right, it has been a while since I went outside.”

“Kyaaa! I am so… Excited!”

Liz smiles enchantingly. What would she look like if she knew that the reason for the vacation was to run away.

Probably because it is still midday, there were only a few Parties in the Lounge.

It doesn’t seem that Ark is here but when Isabella and Yu who were sitting at a table in the back, saw us, they made a displeasing look.

Now then, I want as many people as I can to follow me, but how should I call them so that they will come with us?

It is a problem that if I tell a lie, I will undermine their trust and if I tell them the truth, then that will be in its own way hurtful.

I didn’t think this through, eh… When I was weakening, Liz, who was next to me, shouted in a happy voice.

“Cry-chan said that he is leaving the Imperial Capital after a long while! It will be for vacation, va, ca, tion! Who want to go with ussss?”

The atmosphere in the room froze up in a second. You shouted it out loud even though I told you that it was a secret…

Stunned and confused gazes are cast on Liz and me. I am sure that they are wondering what I am thinking, going on a vacation despite always being in the Clan Master room, playing around.

My dignity has reached zero.

As I resign to my fate, Liz who is next to me continues without reading the air.

“Ah, the departure is right now! Only people who are properly armed can come. We don’t need weakling as they will slow us down! Aaaah, I am so excited… Recently, I was really worried about my arm going dull. Thank god.”

The difference between Liz’s tension and the other Members’ tension is amazing.

I had no other choice but to ask the Hunter who was playing cards on his table ―― It was Lyle who I have a good relationship with.

“I am sorry that it is so sudden. You are coming, right Lyle?”

Lyle suddenly presses his belly and begins to moan with a harsh expression. He moves his arms to his back and the cards fall apart under the table.

“Sorry, Cry. My stomach suddenly hurts… It doesn’t seem I will be able to go.”

I can only see his sudden movement as acting but his expressions was incredibly pale. Maybe he really feels bad.

When I checked with the other Members who were sitting at his table, they all turned their heads away at once.

“Sorry, Master. This time I have my sister’s wedding ―― ”

“My grandmother’s funeral ―― ”

“I… Ehm… I ordered a new sword as the previous one broke.”

“Then what is that sword on the table?!”

“Argh! That sword… Is just a spare! It is a blunt one!”

“Aaaaah!? Even though you were always saying that it was your soulmate!”

“Shut up! It is the truth, Master. Believe me! I can’t fight right now!”

What does all that mean… Although all we said was that it was a vacation, do they have so little confidence in me?

I looked at the other tables and the number of people still here was fewer than before. When I looked back I saw a Member leaving the Lounge at a pace where it wouldn’t be strange if they fell. Did they remember that they had an emergency or something?

Liz looked at them with a sullen look.

Without another choice I head to the place where Ark’s companions were.

It wasn’t as much as Ark, but they were also splendid Members who will be a waste to be my escort just to go outside.

Isabella rapidly turns away. The reaction of Yu, the Priestess, sitting in front of her wasn’t that excessive but her eyes are moving left and right.

“Isabella-sa…”

“Absolutely not.”

“Yu-sa…”

“Plea, please go through Ark for anything related to the Party.”

I can’t land a word at all.

In the first place, where was my main strength Ark and your other companions.

If I could talk to Ark, then I would love to, you know.

After Isabella scratched her long hair once, she crossed her arms and looked at me.

“In the first place, we are, on a holiday now! Ark-san has also gone home and our Hunters activities are on a break!”

“We are also on a vacation though?”

“That is, only just for you guys, right!”

What do you mean… Well, the reason I called out to everyone was for the purpose of being my escort but I think that is just for precaution and not for work.

It wasn’t entirely a vacation but it wasn’t entirely work either.

When I was confused, Isabella continueed to talk like a machine gun.

I heard that the northern country that Isabella came from was a country where women are stronger than here but I don’t know if it was true or not.

“In the first place, what are you going to fight this time!? Phantoms!? Monsters!?”

" "

“N, no ―― ”

“Neither Phantoms or Monsters ―― Then human!? Don’t tell me this time, the opponents are human!? Isn’t it the worst!? I didn’t train my magic to fight against people!”

It is just a vacation… It is true.

Isabella’s eyes were completely vigilant. Yu was also terrorized and kept her distance.

To think I lacked that much credibility ――.

When I felt only despair on my lack of hope, Liz immediately appeared in front of me and made a follow up in a soft voice.

“Anh? You, are you making a fool of Cry’s decision? He told you to come, so come. If you like safety so much, why don’t you stop being a Hunter?”

It wasn’t a follow up at all. Isabella stood up against Liz who was suddenly looking for a fight.

And with a glint in her eyes, Liz shouted out loud.

“What? If you deal only with Phantoms and Monsters, you will be slow when you need to deal with humans! Sometimes, it is perfect to kill some humans! Cry-chan is telling you that!”

It is just a vacation, you know…

TL notes:

Thanks for reading!

Thank you Eric for the coffee! I will try to put an extra release on Sunday!
