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

Chapter 345.2: Withering One ②

That is a good idea. As Yggdra's Princess, I have one of the most powerful abilities among Spirit People, but I lack experience. On the other hand, Cry is a fragile human being, but he has been through many battlefields despite his fragile body. He also seems to be trusted a lot by everyone in Starlight (Hoshi no Seirai), who are also Spirit People, and he has already decided to cooperate with us. Even if I pushgive all authority to him, nothing will change for him.

Even as we are like, tremors continue to occur intermittently. I can feel the disturbance of powerful Magic power, as if a very fierce battle is being waged. This is a sign that high-ranking Magi are fighting each other. Judging from their Magic presence, one of them must be Cry's companionLucia. As for the other presenceI have a strange feeling like I might or might not know it. Could that be the enemy?

If there is one thing I know, it is that a battle between Magi doesn't last very long.

If we don't go soon, it will be too late Well, the only difference is whether we perish sooner or later. (Serene)

Even if you tell me that. There is nothing I can do. It can't be helped (Cry)

What is he going to do? In front of me, who observes him while surrendering myself to the *fuwafuwa* fluffy comfort, Cry takes out a sword from inside Mimic-kun. It is a beautiful sword, worthy of being called a treasured sword. Pulled from its scabbard, the sword blade is surprisingly transparent, indicating that the weapon is no ordinary weapon.

Are you trying to threaten me? It is useless. I am not scared at all. (Serene)

No Spirit People are lighter than humans, but it is quite difficult to carry them Seriously, why do I have to do something like this Is this what they mean when they say I don't have a sense of crisis. (Cry)

Cry sheaths his sword and ties it to his waist, then puts his hand under my body and lifts me up easily.

I feel like I have been carrying a lot of Spirit People on my back lately.

I walk towards the sound while complaining in my mind. Serene, who has been hit by the power of Perfect Vacation, did not complain even when I was carrying her on my back. Spirit People are lighter than humans. Although they are light, they are still the size of a human being, so they have a fair amount of weight. The reason I, a meager man, can easily carry Serene on my back is thanks to the Sword-Type RelicSilent Air that has the power to manipulate weight.

Serene's body is slender. Her skin is a little cool and her hair tickles my cheeks as I walk. It feels strange to carry a body as light as a feather on my back. In the first place, it is not my job to carry people on my back and take them to the battlefield.

While being carried on my back, Serene makes a small sigh in my ear and says.

Human, why do you want to fight so much? Even though I, the Princess of the Spirit People, said it was enough. (Serene)

Who wants to fight?

I can't help but snicker. Ever since I came to Yggdra, there hasn't been a single moment when I wanted to fight. I have no choice but to carry Serene on my back and go to the battlefield like this. I am guilty of giving Serene the perfect vacation. Even though nothing changed when I used the Relic, I completely didn't expect that it would be so bad when someone who is usually serious used it. I feel I will have stomach pain just by thinking about what Lapis and the others will say if they see Serene now.

However, there is still a chance to win. Perfect Vacation only makes the wearer comfortable, and is not a Relic that affects the person's personality. I am sure Serene will return to normal once she faces the enemy. I think she will return to normal. I hope so.

I answer Serene's extremely off-the-mark question with a badass smile.

Well, it is obvious It is because I am a Hunter. That's all the reason I need. (Cry)

By the way, it goes without saying that I can't do anything even in front of the enemy. I am not even comfortable right now, I am just another incompetent person. The sounds of battle are still echoing even now. I don't know what is going on, but the enemy has invaded, so there is no way Liz and the others will stay silent, so I guess they are probably still fighting.

Besides, you said earlier that you can't do anything, but there are things Serene can do, you know. (Cry)

(Serene)

After all, she is a Spirit People who is known for being a highly talented Magi, and on top of that, she is a Princess. Even the ordinary Yowanoble1 like Lapis and the others have made a name for themselves in Zebrudia, so I can't even imagine how strong a Tsuyonoble2 is.

Well, it seemed like she couldn't lift Luke's curse tho'

I carry Serene, who has gone silent, on my back and just move in the direction of the sound. After walking for a while, even my five senses could feel the aftermath of the battle.

Cold wind. *Biribiri* Electrifying vibrations. I can't feel any Magic with my dull senses, but This is, what you can call a fierce battle, isn't it?Follow current ɴᴏᴠᴇʟs on ɴoᴠel ꜰɪre.nᴇt

I stop when I see Lucia's figure. In the center of Yggdra, a giant Water Dragon and a Jet Black Dragon are clashing. The Water Dragon is probably from Lucia's Magic. Is the Jet Black Dragon an enemy attack? As usual, her battle is different from a battle between melee fighters, it is very flashy.

The Jet-Black Dragon entangles the Water Dragon that has circles around it to attack and quickly erodes it into black. Then a pillar of light directly above it pierces it and explodes.

Fragments of the Water Dragon turn into rain and rain down on me, apparently, she is not dominating. And then, Serene, who I am carrying on my back, let out a small voice.

Tha That is Could it be that is Finis of the exhaustion? Why is Finis (Serene)

Do you know it? (Cry)

Maybe it is a Legendary Beast that lives around Yggdra? If she has information about it, she could also know its weaknesses. Serene says in a slow tone to me who is looking forward to what she will say.

Yes. I know about it or rather, it is one of the pillars of Yggdra's Guardian SpiritFinis of The Demise (Shuen), which has the authority to govern over the end of life. It should have gone to challenge the Treasure Shrine with my comrades and that should have been the end of it (Serene)

!? She is leisurely saying something pretty important, right now Okay, I am going to seal the perfect vacation.

Thanks for reading! So Lucia is fighting against a Phantom that uses Yggdra's Guardian Spirit. So Cry making Miles come back to its sense is all for this moment!? Will Lucia (and Serene?) be able to make Finis come back to its senses?
