CH 125.1
Chapter 125 A Certain Vacation ⑥ Part 1
Sent off by the mayor and the townspeople, they left Gula.
Members who were seriously injured from the previous battle were on the carriage with the coachman while Arnold and three other people walked outside while protecting their surroundings.
The new carriage they prepared was custom-made, a size larger than the one Arnold and his companions had been using so far, there was enough space for someone as large as Arnold to get on without any problem. The horses were also well-trained and were of a higher species than the previous ones they had bought and had been using to pull their carriage since they moved out from their previous base.
The cocky-looking Hunter boy ―― Gilbert impressingly said.
“Gee’, when you become Level 7, you really can use some fancy carriage.”
Hunters don’t use very fancy carriages. The more expensive the carriage is, the more comfortable it was, but as there are many chances to break it, replacing it with a new one, will be more costly. For Hunters who spend a lot of money on potions and weapons, the carriage price was a serious headache.
Behind Arnold’s carriage, there was a smaller, more modest carriage. It was the carriage of Gilbert and his companions that Hay had brought with him.
Looking back at the young Hunters who was guarding the carriage nervously, Arnold frowned.
He heard what happened. Arnold understood why Hay brought Gilbert and his companions with him. It was for insurance.
He was thinking about the Party, so Arnold wasn’t going to complain. However, the fact that he had to prepare for an insurance irritated Arnold.
After two full days of rest, the injured members had recovered to a certain extent and their fatigue had subsided to a certain degree, but Arnold’s mood hasn’t calmed down. When he closed his eyes, he could see the mockery 《Absolute Shadow》 thrown at him when they parted.
“By the way, Ossan1, is it true that you’ve killed a Dragon before? How dangerous is a Dragon?”
“Stop, Gilbert! I am sorry, he didn’t mean to offend you……”
Compared to her, Gilbert’s words are way gentler. Arnold has seen many young one who were energetic and fearless.
Arnold snorted as he watched his companions rush from the side to stop him.
Unless Arnold was being ridiculed, he wasn’t as bored as to be intimidated by a few rough words.
Hay with a smile on his face, immediately stepped in.
“Aaah. Even a simple Dragon is quite a formidable foe, but ―― The Dragon we fought wasn’t just any Dragon. Nebranubes’ Lightning Dragon was a big game, it had defeated an army of thousand men. The horde of Orcs we fought this time was also quite large and the horde’s Leader was a strong enemy, but it was nothing compared to that Lightning Dragon.”
“I see…… Dragons are different after all. Dragon Slayer…… I’ll definitely be one someday. I swear on this sword!”
Gilbert confidently drew his sword from his waist and declared so, even Hay’s expression showed that he was taken aback.
“You can’t defeat a Dragon with just a sword. It would still be possible if you were fighting against a Land Dragon as it doesn’t fly in the sky but…… If you don’t drag it to the ground first, it wouldn’t even be a battle.”
“Is that so…… No, but if my sword can’t reach it, I can just jump to where it is, right?”
“Well, you might be able to reach it if you jump, but…… How are you going to avoid its breath in the air……”
Lightning Dragon subjugation. It was both the source of confidence and pride for 《Fallen Mist》.
Dragon’s Roar. A bright light gushing out and an angry roar. He can still remember the scene as if it were yesterday, the moment when his body was shaking from excitement when the Dragon finally fell to the ground.
No matter how many powerful enemies appear, Arnold, who slayed a Dragon that could destroy a country, won’t retreat.
Perhaps because he was too astonished by his ignorance, Hay changed the subject.
“By the way, we are new to this country, so we don’t know much about them, but what kind of Party is 《Strange Grief (The Lamenting Ghost)》? If you know something about them, can you tell us about it……?”
He had asked around in order to look up information about them, but he came up with too little useful information. In particular, there was next to no information on 《Infinite Variety》, despite putting so much effort in investigating him.
There is no doubt that he is a powerful enemy from the fact that he is a Level 8, but Hunters from the Imperial Capital may know more about him.
At Hay’s words, for some reason, Gilbert puffed out his chest proudly and said. His friends dropped their shoulders as if they were exasperated.
“I see. I’ve looked up on all the information on all the powerful ones. Because my goal is to surpass them one day. ………… Weeell, I haven’t been able to find any detailed information about them and the only ones I’ve met are 《Infinite Variety》 and 《Absolute Shadow》, but ――”
Gilbert began to talk happily, but there was nothing new in what he said.
The information wasn’t much different from what Hay had researched when he was unfamiliar and had just arrived in the Imperial Capital.
A Swordsman and a Paladin. A Mage, an Alchemist, and two Thieves. And finally ―― There’s 《Infinite Variety》 whose combat techniques and everything else are unknown.
Only the presence of an Alchemist was unusual, but there isn’t anything particularly new on their Party composition. In other words, it is a group without a gap.
All the information pointed to a disadvantage for Arnold and his companions.
Their Party doesn’t seem to have a good reputation, but they had a solid track record.
At the moment, most of their Members seem to be absent, but he will eventually engage with them.
“―― I’m a swordsman, so my goal is 《Thousand Swords》 Luke. Even in Zebrudia, he is a famed genius swordsman ―― He traveled all over Zebrudia and mastered all swordsmanship style, but he still couldn’t find one he liked so he eventually made his own style.”
“…… A self-taught sword style, hm.”
TL notes:
Thanks for reading!
From the fact that Gilbert is so proud of Strange Grief, it looks like that he became a fanboy XD
Weirdly, I don’t see Luke traveling the world to “learn” about different styles. As he is like Liz, I am more inclined to think that he went everywhere randomly attacking some dojo to test his skill XD
Tchao à plus!
