The empire is called Nihon and Trish city is just a strategic first line of defence so only volunteers dare to live in this dangerous city.
Leader Shun also asked where Erick came from and what he was doing in that forsaken central continent.
.....
“Well, I was just passing by and got lost in the middle!” Erick made an excuse with a straight face to which Leader Shun gave him a look that said, seriously who would believe in that nonsense?
Leader Shun tacitly decided not to ask about Erick’s purpose as he was their saviour so this much respect he deserves from them.
“So would you like to accompany us to our city, as we need to buy resources for them with what we have got in this hunt!” Leader Shun asked Erick if he wanted to accompany them and explained to him why they needed to hurry over.
Erick didn’t have anything to do at the moment so he agreed to tag along with them as he also needed this world’s currency for accommodation so he ought to find something to earn money from.
“Is Erick-san coming with us!” Mortel asked, giving them a look with a curious expression.
When Leader nodded his head in agreement, a small smile blossomed on the faces of Cortel-san and Monan-san but the shy girl in the group hid behind the two of them.
Feeling curious about the shy girl, Erick asked her name but she further hid behind Cortel and Monan’s back so Cortel replied instead to the shy girl’s place.
Apparently, the shy girl’s name is Martha Merial, she was not good with strangers so it would take her some time to get used to Erick’s presence.
The girls were curious about how Erick is so strong and how he obtained his strength, actually about this, everyone in the team wanted to know. From what they had seen during the Erick thrashing of the malice organisms, they hardly believe that humans can do such a feat that Erick is capable of.
“Well, there’s not much of a secret. As long as you train hard enough with the right regiment and supplement, anyone can become strong like me!” Erick smiled and replied plainly not hiding much and what he said is in fact, the complete truth in Erick’s case but helping any person, it might not be possible.
“Haa, No way! Just training but what sort of training!” Cortel, Monan and Merial asked with shining eyes but Merial was still hiding from Cortel.
“Okay...okay, don’t pester Mr Erick! Sorry about that Mr Erick, they are still feeling amazed by what you did so don’t mind their enthusiasm!” Leader Shun chided the ladies who made pouting expressions then apologised to Erick about their behaviour.
“No...no, It’s fine, I don’t mind really! Please, don’t sound so distant with me so just call me Erick that will do!” Erick waved his hand to show that he didn’t mind their enthusiasm and also asked Leader Shun to address him casually.
“Hahaha! It’s just a habit and you also have the strength to be shown some respect. So don’t mind if I offended you!” Leader Shun laughed boisterously then replied giving him martial solute with a slight bow.
After that, Erick felt tired just from arguing with Leader Shun about the honour and shit like that. But Erick was able to persuade Leader Shun to be casual with him.
Once the team was well fed in the pub and everyone drank to their heart’s content, the leader paid the bill and left from there directly to the other side of the exit of the Trish City.
They again took the vehicle leaving for their city, Narsi City. This time there weren’t many vehicles leaving the city, the vehicle they took resembled a bus but because it was heavily modified to tank attacks from malice organisms, it looked like a big iron tank.
From the window, Erick was able to see a little bit of greenery here and there, so he guessed that the area hadn’t been cleaned completely.
Erick was sitting between Cortel and Monan, taking his left and right side of the large size sheet. The shy girl, Merial, was sitting beside Cortel.
They were sitting on the four-sheeter sheet so Cortel and Monan, both of them were being a little bold by hugging his arm from both sides and rubbing their ample bosom on his forearms.
“Ne...ne... Erick-san, can you tell me about yourself a little!” Cortel initiated the conversation and asked Erick.
“That’s right, can you tell us how your life was before this shit happened!” Monan also tagged along with Cortel’s conversation.
“Relax ladies, I am not running anywhere so don’t worry I will try to answer your quarries.” Erick sat completely motionless in fear of touching them inappropriately and tried to calm them down.
After feeling that a little pressure from their bosom eased on his arms but not completely left so he just sighed feeling troublesome when he is a man of culture but he can’t do anything at the moment because of various reasons.
“You know ladies, I still don’t know much about you all so why not first start with that in return I will train you guys slightly so how does that sound to you!” Erick didn’t answer their quarry but asked the duo in return and tried to strike a deal with them.
“Are you telling the truth, you promise!” Both of them tighten the hug on his arms making him feel full pressure with their impressive size bosoms.
“Yes, I am telling the truth and it’s a promise!” Erick hurriedly made a promise with them in fear of losing control of his blood flow and which might make it rush somewhere which will make them face awkward moments and might destroy his strong expert persona.
“Okay, then I will start first. My full name is Livia Cortel. I joined the leader Shun team about a year ago. I have a little brother, a cute little sister and a mother. My Father passed away when he was trying to save us from the fall of a building when the chaos started.....!!” Cortel took the lead and started first, she introduced her full name and then started telling Erick her backstory which led her to the Leader Shun hunting team.
Erick didn’t interrupt her to ask in the middle but he did feel her discomfort when she talked about her father’s death.
