Chapter 151 End of the Vacation ?

Part 2

Tino, who was properly wearing her yukata to hide her skin, looked at me in awe and muttered.

“Human…… Enemy ?? This is, this time’s ?Infinite Trial?, right…… Master~.” (Tino)

“No, you are wrong. Because this time, we are on a vacation. Didn’t I tell you that there would be no trials.” (Cry)

“!?” (Tino)

I put my hand over my mouth and smiled in a badass manner. I looked at Arnold and his companions, who were stunned, and Sytry, who had a faint smile, in turn, and explained to them.

“Don’t worry, for now, we don’t need to do anything. If they came and attacked this inn, I think all we need to do is to just repel them.” (Cry)

“………… What do you mean?” (Arnold)

It is simple. Because reinforcements are coming.

Today, I am ?? Brilliant. No, you don’t have to be brilliant to know what is happening if you think a little about it.

Maybe Arnold and his companions weren’t accustomed to this kind of pinch. That is why they couldn’t think about it.

My abilities don’t suit my certification Level, but only the number of times I had been involved in a battlefield won’t shame my Level.

“You don’t get it?” (Cry)

“Tsk…… This bastard……” (Arnold)

Arnold’s lips quivered and he tightly clenched his fist.

It was written that there were around one hundred people in the Barrel Bandit Group. The number that the mask said was around three hundred. So, if both of those numbers are correct, why is there a difference in numbers?

Exactly. If my assumption is correct then the remaining two hundred people are ?? Reinforcement.

Moreover, they are probably from Gladys Knight Order.

If they are the Gladys Knight Order who are renowned for their valor and long war history, then it won’t be surprising for them to own mythical flying beasts, moreover, the Barrel Bandit Group was originally rampaging in their territory. So, it won’t be strange for them to chase after the fleeing Barrel Bandit Group.

I am sure the mask had confused the two groups.

My assumption is a lot more realistic than thinking that there are three hundred bandits, moreover, we might be outside of Gladys territory, but we are still right next to their border.

So that means that all we could do was to wait for Gladys’ knight to free the city.

I doubt there is anything we can do against a group of one hundred bandits, moreover, they have also taken hostages, so we can’t move carelessly. It is best to leave it to Gladys Knight Order as they have double their number. Rather, isn’t everyone relying on me way too much? Up until now, have I ever been useful to you once?

Fortunately, we should be able to at least protect this Ryokan. We have Sytry, Arnold, and also Tino who has kept her ground against ten of them by herself.

“Well, calm down. If my calculations are right, reinforcements are on their way. For the hostages… Well, it will work out one way or another. There is no point in rushing. What we need to do right now, is to recover our strength in case of an emergency.” (Cry)

This battle is… my victory.

§?§

What… Is happening?

Hidden in the shadow of one of the large buildings, Ruda gasped. Behind her, the members of ?Crimson Flame (Fire Gale)? are looking around with a mix of anxiety and tension, except for Gilbert.

I couldn’t understand the situation. Their movement was so fast that I couldn’t understand what was going on.

The only entrance to the city (Although the walls surrounding the city were high enough for us to jump over) had been completely sealed off by an unknown group.

There were already no other people in the city except for Ruda and the others. Even though we didn’t see any tourists, we did see some people living in the city until yesterday.

They were all captured by the people dressed as tourists and had been gathered in one place. This was no ordinary trick.

It was only by luck that Ruda and the others hadn’t been captured by them.

As expected, even Gilbert wasn’t going to make a fuss in a situation like this one and opened his eyes and muttered in astonishment.

“Wow…… There are so many of them. What’s going on?” (Gilbert)

“Look! There are even mythological flying beasts!?” (Gilbert party member)

If you include the reinforcements that came on their horse from outside, then there were probably more than a hundred of them. The way they spread out with swift movement without any disruption and the way they surrounded and kept a lookout from the outer wall made them seem like an army.

The first people who walked through the streets looked like tourists, but the ones who came in later were all fully armed. From their faces to their equipment, all of them had the air of someone who was engaged in violent trades.

The most conspicuous of all of them was a giant man who came in at the very end.

He was definitely the head of this group. He had a sharp pair of eyes that were as powerful as sharpened blades and had scars on his cheeks. His well-trained body is even larger than Arnold’s who already has a well-built body, and although his face seems to be close to forty years old, the sense of intimidation he gives off is unbelievable. He carries a huge battle-axe on his back, one which Ruda would be unable to lift up, and his carefree demeanor gives off a strong sense of charisma.

If he was a Treasure Hunter, he would be a cut above the rest. But it was clear that this man wasn’t good news.

That is ?? Impossible. He is definitely superior to us. He has an overwhelming feeling showing that he has absorbed way more Mana Material than Ruda and the others.

The man sat down on a huge barrel that they had brought in and unexpectedly slammed his battle-axe that was on his back into the ground.

The radiant blade on the weapon that wasn’t commonly used, pierced the ground and made a massive sound.

The place was filled with a tingling sensation of dangerousness. It wasn’t just the hostages that had been captured that were afraid. Even all of my companions were afraid of that man.

The man looked at the man rolled in front of him and said in a low voice.

“Hmmm? How the hell is that guy ?Infinite Variety (Senpen Banka)?? He obviously didn’t have the aura. Answer me. I sent you guys to capture ?Infinite Variety (Senpen Banka)?. It’d be one thing if you lost and came back, but what do you mean you caught the wrong guy?” (Barrel Bandit Group Boss)

“S-sorry, Oyaji. But there was only this guy in the Ryoka ??” (Barrel Bandit Group 1)

In front of Ruda’s eyes, the man was rolled down and when the bag he was wearing was ripped off, it revealed a face that was familiar to her.

It was the man who was supposed to be working with Cry Andrich. I believed………… He was called Gray.

As Gray looked at him as if his soul had been drained, the man who was called Oyaji slowly gritted his teeth together.

The voice that came out of his mouth was, however, surprisingly calm.

“Search again. Use as many people as you want, we’ve three hundred people with us. I don’t plan to stay here for a long time. We’ve surrounded the city yet he still hasn’t come out, it’s obvious that he isn’t as strong as his reputation says. If we can kill him, we’ll have more men joining us. Don’t forget, we’re bandits…… Don’t fight one-on-one. Use your numbers, rob them and lay waste on them. We are ?? Not warriors, we do it unfairly. Go now ??” (Barrel Bandit Group Boss)

The man lifted his battle-axe with one hand, looked up at the sky, and shouted.

“?? Glory to the Barrels.”

“Oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooh!!” (Barrel Bandit Group)

An explosion of cheers shook the place. Seeing the shadows scattering, Ruda pulled her head back in a panic.

This is bad. We’ve got to tell this to Cry right now.

TL notes:

Thanks for reading. Extra chapter thanks to Mohammad.

Hahaha so Cry thinks that the 200 people approaching are Gladys knight. Pffff keep dreaming.

Him being all confident is so funny when you know that he is sooooo wrong! XD

Tchao à plus!
