Chapter 224 Dangerous Organization
Part 1
The inn that Sytry booked as our base in Cleat was a robust building rather than a luxury one.
Cleat has a strange bustling atmosphere, unlike any other city I have ever visited. And this inn was located in the center of the city.
The building itself was large and simple in appearance, but what was unusual was that several fully armed knights stood guard just in front of the entrance.
There were thick window glasses and strangely shiny walls. The inn I entered with trepidation looked ordinary at first glance, but there were several security knights standing in inconspicuous places here and there. The inns that Sytry takes when traveling are usually luxurious, but not this time apparently.
I wondered if something was wrong, but as far as I can see, it did not seem to be the case.
The other guests included merchants dressed in respectable (And expensive) outfits, noblemen with a large group of attendants, but not a single Hunter.
We were shown to a large room on the upper floor that could accommodate a large number of people. Liz cheered and quickly ran around the room, checking under the beds and behind the painting. Lucia was looking around through the large window.
I didn’t know why, but even though we were supposed to be an inn in the city, it looked as if they were standing guard as if they were outside.
Sytry-chan proudly said while *chirachira* glancing at me.
“This time I took the safest lodging. Because Cleat is very dangerous during the Supreme Martial Arts Festival.” (Sytry)
Eh? ............ Why? I am just here to sightsee, you know?
In fact, I checked the guidebooks and it is a great city for tourists. It was not as safe as Zebrudia, but it should have been on the safer side.
Lucia sighed deeply at my silence.
“It is because we just picked a fight against the 『Nine-Tails Shadow Fox (Kyubi no Kage Kitsune)』...... So, you can never be too careful.” (Sytry)
“Eeeeh, that’s the point!?” (Liz)
Liz opened her eyes widely at me when I was pushed by Luke’s momentum.
I always lose against Luke’s momentum. That is why I am still a Hunter.
Sytry, who was organizing the large baggage we brought from the carriage, told him as if to wrap up the conversation.
“Well, if they are going to attack us, it is probably going to be with a lot of people. Whether they are going to be swordsmen or not...... Is still unknown though.” (Sytry)
Again, why is this already something definite......
“...... Did we do something that bad?” (Cry)
“It would also be a great way to make a name for ourselves if we make a bloodbath of the contestants of the Supreme Martial Arts Festival.” (Sytry)
They had an expression that said that it couldn’t help, but...... Making a bloodbath just to make a name for yourself, where did your morals go?
“In other words, if we can turn the tables on them, we’ll get some training and fame at the same time, two birds with one stone! Right, Cry!” (Luke)
“............ Luke is so smart.” (Cry)
It is okay. I am not a contestant and Luke and the others are strong.
Even one of them is already strong, moreover, Anthem is with them, so they can handle one or two or three or four assailants.

TL notes:
Thanks for reading!
As usual, Cry is running away from reality by thinking that maybe he won’t be attacked.
But it’s okay, right now he is the Kistune’s boss, so no one will attack them... Probably...
Tchao à plus!
