Chapter 78 Appraisal Result

Part 2

“It is not often that you seem to have been done in. You don’t have any injury?”

“There is no injury! Because the opponent was only three fallen 『Thief (Tozoku) 』 Hunters. The one who destroyed the store was our security guarddd! It has been a while since he last used his Relics so he couldn’t hold back is the kind of nonsense he was spouting! Damn! I didn’t lend you my Relics so you can break my store!”

... So, the culprit wasn’t the robber.

Even when the security guard was pointed out his line of sight doesn’t move at all. Isn’t this what it means when you say only weirdo gather around weirdo. And how good are you to be able to crush a Red Party just by using Relics equipped on you. At least he looks stronger than me.

Perhaps because he was satisfied of all his screaming, Martis-san drinks to wet his throat and sigh deeply.

“So, what do you want? If you want to compensate, I don’t need it, the bounty on the Red puts me in the clear. My granddaughter has also come to visit me.”

“But, still...”

“I don’t need your apology for the rumors. To be led by the nose by someone else... There is no way that the strongest Relics exist! If there is such a thing, I would love to see it!”

Without taking a breath Martis-san says what he wanted to say and hit his fist on the counter.

Even if there is the worst Relic, there isn’t a strongest Relic is one of his favorite quotes for a decade since I met him.

Apparently, he doesn’t believe in the rumor at all.

Is it because he does trust me or because he doesn’t trust me? Either way, his stubborn words made me feel a little bit better.

I make a smile and decide to end it in a nice way.

“The strongest Relic... perhaps the scariest thing isn’t the Relics, but it may be people’s heart, right?”

“Shut up! What is scariest is you because just by wanting to buy a Relic you can become the center of attention!”

Martis-san frown and yells this. You’re goddamn right.

I sigh deeply and show my agreement.

According to Sytry-chan, in the present era, the greatest 『Characteristic』seems to be human strength.

Previous civilization was well-developed, but the seed called human species wasn’t strong. Although the degree of development in our civilization is not as high as before, the strength of human being is the strongest.

“... You are damn right. Everyone is picturing to much of their ideal on the Relics.”

Martis-san nods strongly to my words.

I assess the situation and assume the worst and the best scenario.

The best is for the Ojou-sama, businesses companies and other Hunters to give up on the Relic and I get it at a low price.

And the worst is... for the Ojou-sama or the businesses companies to get the Relics... Use it without fearing the risks, discover its effect and come knock at my door because it was a different effect than what they expected.

It is an unreasonable story but she is a noble precious princess so I don’t know what she would do. As far as authority is concern, my side is overwhelmingly inferior so I don’t know what will happen.

I don’t need that Relic anymore. But if you give it to me, I will take it, but I wouldn’t think of using Sytry’s marriage funds to get it.

However, since the origin of the turmoil is me, I should keep a preventive line.

I don’t want to do it since it will be very annoying but if I leave such troublesome thing unattended, it will become even more troublesome later.

“Taking into account the words of Martis-san, do you want to talk to éclair-jou at least once... Will you come with me?”

When Sytry hears that when was busy cleaning up. She put her hand on her cheek and gives me a melting smile.

“Of course, Cry-san. Let’s go see the Ojou-sama who got infuriated with Ark-san and tell her more about us, to make her understand better about us.”

TL notes:

Thanks for reading!

I wonder if Strange Grief Mask has a special effect even if there are no holes for the eyes, like they can see the flow of Mana Material or something!

Cry so you gonna meet éclair I hope that you don’t make more problem because of this XD

But well it is Cry we are talking about so we can expect some good misunderstanding!

Tchao à plus!

I put this because Breaking Bad/Heisenberg but it is more like Cry says it in a regretful tone.

Ojou-sama: Mistress as in maste
