Chapter 65 Teriyaki
Part 3
“Sorry. We have kept you waiting. You are the one coming from Nebranubes, the Level 7 “Heavy Lightning Strike”, right?”
I raise my face. The one who called out to Arnold is a giant as tall as him.
Hay opens his eyes and Juster takes a step back as if he was being pressured.
You can even understand that there are bloated muscles under his uniform and on his hand and legs numerous deep scars. A large tattoo is tattooed on his face and he overlook Arnold and his friends with his sharp eyes.
Is his age one generation above Arnold...? But from that appearance, his enormous amount of energy hidden in his body is transmitted.
It seems that the Branch Chief in the Imperial Capital was a former top-class Hunter. I have heard the rumor, but the appearance of this masterpiece is beyond his imagination, Arnold lip’s turn into a grin and laugh.
I get up from the sofa, we are about the same height... A sharp line of sight collides between each other.
The Branch Chief in the Mist country was a round man like a fat pig. As a Branch Chief he seems to be quite capable but as a warrior he was worthless.
Every time he met Arnold a slight color of fear was visible in his eyes but what about this man in front of him?
Gark clasps his outstretched hand. To test him, I to put strength in my hands but he grabs it back with more strength.
Strong. Despite him being supposed to have retreated from the front line... This power!
“Aaah. So, you are... Branch Chief Gark. I am Arnold Hale, Level 7. I will be in your care for a while.”
“Good job for coming from so far away. You have subdued a Thunder Dragon, right? High-Level Hunters are welcomed.”
Apparently, they already got the information.
To Gark word the other members relaxed. At that time, Gark has come up with something as if he just remembered.
“Well, you can believe him. He isn’t the kind of person who will allows her to 『bully the weak』. If you are a good boy, you shouldn’t have any problem.”
His voice was like he wanted to comfort him.
In his voice, rather than anger, Arnold felt a chill that he couldn’t understand.
He said she was a Level 6 but that woman was a strong one.
To a Hunter who declared a Higher-Level than herself. She, without hesitation and with her fierce temper launches an attack. And she has the strong ability to support this.
She doesn’t look like a human who will work under someone. What is needed for such a beast to obey?
If the one she obeys to is a Hunter, then there is only one answer... Strength.
To submit a berserk beast who will even attack the Branch Chief, you will need an overwhelming strength.
How much strength is it? Liz have attacked Arnold and his friends. If so, it is obvious to think that he is way above Arnold who is down in the ground.
Hay has a slightly pale face after listening to his words. He probably come to the same conclusion as Arnold.
Whether he is aware of it or not, Gark claps his hand.
“Aaah, yes. It seems her owner... “Infinite Variety” has a request he want to ask you guys. He is one of less than five Hunters in the Imperial Capital... There is no loss in making a connection with him.”
“A request... You say?”
Infinite Variety. While Arnold is carving his name in his head. Gark smile and says.
“I will pay you, so I want you to get a “Thunder Dragon (Rai Ryū)”. I heard that you had defeated a Thunder Dragon and I wanted to eat it after a long time. Well, there is no deadline, so leave it in a corner of your head. I wish you good luck, “Dragon slayer (Ryū Koroshi)” gentlemen, is what he said.”
TL notes:
Thanks for reading.
Lol that request cry made. It is like he is mocking them. But he really went and request a dragon to eat because he was hungry. I can picture Cry in a clown outfit and grandly bowing to Arnold when he made that request XD.
So, in the Imperial Capital there are less than 5 Level 8 Hunter. I wonder how many Level 9 or 10 is there? Probably 0 for Level 10 as it is Hero level.
Tchao à plus!
