Chapter 102 Execution ??
Part 1
Liz completely seemed to be on boosted mode.
It was like watching a dragon rampaging. In front of her, everyone was overwhelmed by her figure full of energy like a raging sun. Now that she was like this, it was very difficult to stop her.
Why are you so motivated even though what I said was just that we were going on a vacation? I will say it as many times as necessary but I have no intention to go to a dangerous place.
I was a little nervous when I was watching Liz running around in the Lounge but I won’t take the Members who said that they don’t want to go.
I am a little uneasy if Liz was my only escort but if I talk with Sitry, she will probably come with us.
Perhaps because she had run around as much as she wanted, Liz came in front of me with swift movements, leaned over a little and asked me with upturned eyes.
“Nee, nee, Cry-chan. Can I, like, take Ti?”
“……”
That is a difficult request. We were in an awkward situation since the ?Over Greed (Evolving Devil Mask) ? accident.
Of course, if she wants to, then I will agree but if I think about my lovely Kouhai then I think it will be better if I leave her alone for some time.
When I was silent, Liz suddenly closed her eyes and made a worried look.
“Was it that? Maybe Cry-chan, you disregarded Ti because of the previous accident?”
Wasn’t your statement weird?
There is no way I will disregard her. Tino didn’t do anything wrong.
I remember Tino’s behavior when she was wearing the mask and expired a small sigh.
Or rather, (even though it was because of the mask) I am more worried about Liz and Sytry’s thought about the obedient Tino who had rebelled against them.
?Over Greed (Evolving Devil Mask) ? had the unique effect of releasing the latent potential of the user but as well as releasing their subconsciousness. The feeling she released and the power she felt must have made her feel omnipotent as it has made Tino a little bit more aggressive than usual ?? Force her to be more aggressive than usual.
To be more concrete, she stood in front of me as if she was my shield, pointed her fist at her Onee-sama and launched a series of complaints against them. At that time Liz and Sytry’s expressions were, honestly, quite interesting.
Liz wasn’t the kind of person who would be silent after being complained to, so naturally she rushed at her but Tino was a mild and good kid. I am the one who put the mask on her, so the damage Tino suffered was my fault. I told her to think that the mask incident never happened, but it was impossible to completely negate the effect of what actually happened.
And in an unusual fashion, Liz didn’t want to cut ties with her and didn’t seem that worried about it, but seriously what on earth was going on with their teacher-apprentice relationship?
When I was silently thinking, Liz makes an unusually sad voice and says.
“… Indeed, it is true that Tino is a small fry and stood in front of me and Syt without knowing where she belonged. But, but, that was all for Cry-chan’s sake! She just kept following my order! From Cry-chan’s perspective, it may have looked unsightly but… Don’t give up on her, please?”
I am confused by the difference in our enthusiasm.
I had never thought of Tino as a small fry nor have I thought about throwing her away. Rather, I was the one who would be thrown away. While I didn’t know how to react, I opened my eyes and nodded *un un* with a wry smile.
“I have never thought about, throwing her away. It is a useless worry. Un, Tino is a splendid Hunter. I also think that Liz did well.”
.
I think it would still be better if you were a little bit more gentle with her though…
Liz’s expression which seemed anxious turned into a blossoming smile because of my empty words of comfort.
“Then……… Can I take her with us?”
“……… No problem.”
When she was showing such a big smile, even if I wanted to, I couldn’t refuse her.
… Well, it was just a simple vacation though…
“Yatta, Cry-chan I love you! It is fine, even if Ti died due to her lack of ability, Cry-chan can think of it as a stepping stone for you to reach your goal!”
“Then I will go talk with her.” said Liz while leaving the Lounge with fast steps.
I won’t think that she would be a stepping stone for my goal… What does Liz think that my vacation is?
Certainly, I am unlucky. I had been involved in various commotions even before reaching Level 8. If we go see cherry trees blossoming, a Shrine will appear and if we are exploring a cave, a big earthquake will occur and collapse it. If we dive in a Shrine, we will have a high chance of encounter a boss who should have a low probability of appearing and if we are under a big storm, thunder will suddenly rain on us (By the way, it hit full force on Anthem the tallest among us when he was next to me) .
But even that should have its limits. This time, I will leave the Imperial Capital to avoid any turmoil. I have no intention of fighting Monsters or Phantoms and of course I neither have any intention to kill anyone.
I look around me, but there are only a few people left in the Lounge. They all fled because Liz was making a fuss.
I have a feeling that it has become something really big even though all I wanted to invite people to go out with me.
TL notes:
Thanks for reading!
Too bad we didn’t see how Tino was with that mask but it looks like in the light novel there was the continuation of where the web novel stopped (or maybe it was a short story) so if you are curious (and can understand japanese) you can buy the book and read it.
And I think that if you have so many coincidences happening around you people will start to think that might not be a coincidence but something planned. So that’s why people think that you can see everything and be omnipotent.
Tchao à plus!
