CH 7

Chapter 7-: On the other hand, at that time ...

( TL By GUST )

"Huh, huh, huh ... What about , the pursuit !?"

"It's Okay ... I managed to escape ..."

Rin and Mina looked back many times, out of breath.

They see the beast road off the highway, but they can't see any monsters, let alone people.

"Huh ... it looks okay."

"Yes, no problem."

Rin and Mina undertook the escort of the merchant intending to earn a little pocket money.

Arios and Aggas were not with them.

Those two are preparing for the conquest of  the "Illusion Forest" that is heading for the future.

Rin can use over a thousand magics.

Mina can use healing techniques that are said to be able to revive even the dead.

However, They are not good at close-quarters battles.

If a enemy  can close the gap, they will be in trouble .

So they hired a suitable adventurer as vanguard  and headed for the escort quest  of the merchant.

It was supposed to be a simple request.

It would have been over soon and they was planning to get a lot of rewards.

Even so ...

"What are you doing!"

"Hi !?"

Rin grabs the chest of an adventurer hired as an Vanguard.

The adventurer did not do a decent job.

Without acting as an Vanguard, he exposed Rin and Mina.

Thanks to that, I fell into a squirrel that escaped to a thief.

It's not something I can forgive.

"The Vanguard presence is basically to protect the rearguards !? But what do you do when the bandits appeared you were the first one to  run away !?"

"Well, don't be crazy! I'm a beast tamer! I'm not good at being a vanguard. Didn't I explain that in advance? Then you guys don't mind ... I am……"

"That's why, what do you do if you leave us and run away !? It's a terrible strain to run away against a thief!"

"Beast tamers can fight? They're just thieves. They're not powerful monsters. Can't you do that?"

" don't let me say it over and over! It's impossible for a Beast Tamer to fight! I don't have the power to fight, so I'll tame the beast and let him fight instead! That's what the Beast Tamer is. What is that! "

"Huh? Even that trash bug was fighting, but why do you make such a silly excuse?"

Rin looks down on the adventurer.

Even that useless Rain was fighting on his own during the battle.

Even during the battle with the four heavenly kings, he was fighting as an avant-garde.

Of course, it didn't help much, but ... it was better than nothing.

And yet, when this adventurer ...

He says he has no power to fight.

If so, isn't it he a useless trash  below Rain?

Along with Mina, she  looks at the garbage.

…… But the two of them are still unaware.

What the adventurer is saying was a very natural fact.

Rain, who is a beast tamer but can fight, is more abnormal different from the rest.

"and?"

"Huh……?"

"I understand that you're a chicken that doesn't have the courage to fight. We, who hired such crap, have some responsibility. When it comes to fighting, I'll give you 10,000 steps and accept your point. .but……"

"Why did you neglect the search around you?"

"Oh, was not neglecting ..."

"You didn't? In fact, you couldn't even  notice until the bandits were visible."

"You're a beast tamer, right? So you should have tamed those animals and sent them out for reconnaissance, right?"

"Well, I did that I tamed the squirrel and watched through it. But even though it's a quick squirrel, it's impossible to watch 360 degrees in all directions. The thieves surround us. Even I can't watch everywhere  , so the discovery was delayed ... "

Frustrated by the adventurer's words, Rin grabbed his chest again.

She was terrifying with a brutal face.

"Ah? Then you should tame 10 or 20 and be on the lookout for all directions! Why didn't you do that !?"

"What ... isn't it a known thing? Only one animal can be used by the Beast Tamer."

"Don't lie.  Could even such an excuse be valid?"

"Uh, I'm not lying! Basically, you can only tame one animal. You can't use two, let alone ten! That's true for all Beast Tamers. It's a burden to use multiple at the same time. Double taming  and all my nerves will burn out. "

Rin and Mina looked at each other.

Makes a slightly suspicious look.

I've never heard of such a story.

First, Rain used dozens of animals to keep an eye on and explore the surroundings.

There is no way that no one else can do what Rain can do.

Therefore, this adventurer is lying to protect himself.

He talks about bullshit to cheat his incompetence.

Rin and Mina made that decision in their mind .

Rin pushed the adventurer away.

"That's ... apparently I got the worst loss. I never thought there was a guy who couldn't use it better than that garbage bug."

"That's right. I never thought I would meet such a fool."

"Gut ..."

The adventurer tried to refute something, but gave up.

It would be useless to say anything to these two.

I felt that way.

It was like dealing with a race with a different language.

"What are you going to do? I have thrown out the client ..."

"Ah ... it's okay. Let's leave it alone. It's strange that we're in danger because of the merchants."

"That's right ... Isn't it going to hurt our name? I'm fine, but Rin and Aggas ... and when Arios gets is involved."

"Yeah ... isn't that bad?"

Rin thought.

They found the request, but it was this adventurer who actually received the order.

They are "heroes", not adventurers.

Although they are similar, they cannot easily accept requests like adventurers.

If such a thing were possible, everyone would count on the brave to do all the jobs.

To avoid such a situation, it is stipulated that only those who have a certain level of power and authority can request Arios and others.

So Rin can't accept the request by herself .

So, she found a suitable adventurer, asked for a request, and made an order on his behalf...

After thinking about the situation they were in, Rin came up with a solution.

She walks up to the adventurer who still has a sticky butt and points his wand at him.

"Yes?"

Rin coldly tells an adventurer who is confused by something like a declaration of war.

"You received an order for this request without permission, and you tried to solve it by yourself, but as a result, it failed ... Can you do that?"

"I see ... okay? Don't talk about us? Don't talk about us being together."

Mina sees Rin's thoughts and immediately gets into the story.

in short……

Putting all the responsibility for failure on the adventurer, we decide that we have nothing to do with it.

Rin thought about that.

Naturally, the adventurer gets angry.

"Don't be silly! I'm the only one who puts on mud ... I guess this request failed because you guys say so much !? Can you do it! When you report, you will talk about yourself properly. "

"Hey ..."

Su, Rin's eyes sharply narrows.

"If you do that kind of playful imitation, you'll die here?"

"What !?"

"I tell you, even if you make a playful imitation of secretly reporting later, I will kill you, right? Chase, hunt  you down, and absolutely kill you."

"Nah ... oh ..."

"You have two options. Listen to what we say  or get killed here. Which is better?"

The tip of the cane held by Rin ignites.

The fire eventually grows into flames, burning the adventurer's face.

"Okay! I'll do what you say, I'm all wrong! It's my responsibility, you don't matter! That's okay !?"

"You're a good boy"

"Then go. Incompetence like you, just looking at it makes me irritated."

"Heee !?"

The adventurer ran away, almost falling over and over again.

"Are you okay? Will he say something extra to expose us ?"

"It's okay if I threaten him  that much. There's nothing you can do to incapacitate him ."

"... That's right, because there is a limit to what a fool can do."

"After all, we should rely on the right guy."

"After all, Arios and Aggas are reliable.  No one else but them can be trusted."

"Oh, I'm tired. Let's go home quickly. I'll miss my reward. It's frustrating, it's been a terrible day."

"I concurr"

Rim and Mina are unaware.

The adventurers' words were all correct, and they were facing a difficult task.

...... It will be a while before they realize that.
