Chapter 74.2: Strange Grief Wants to Retire ~ The Weakest Hunterâs Hero Dream Chapter 74.2 \nArnold Hale couldnât decide what to do with this unexpected party. It is the opponent I have a grudge against because they crushed us at the bar on the first day.\n
I suppress the feeling of anger that is boiling. In any case, the woman who raised her hand on Arnold wasnât here. Even if I went and crushed all the people in here, I wouldnât feel better.
As Arnold was silent, the other members who wanted to say something canât say anything. Everyone seems to have something to say but now is the time to keep it in.
As usual, âInfinite Varietyâ is a perplexing man.
In front of Arnold, he has a calm expression. His body is slender for a Hunter and he also lacks muscles. He doesnât look strong at all. He is a man with delicate feature. He doesnât have a weapon on him, but he has necklaces, earrings and rings on each fingerâŠ
So, his profession isnât a close-combat one? No matter how much we looked into it, we couldnât find out what was the fighting style of âInfinite Varietyâ. Whatever it is, he had launched hostilities against someone with a Level 7 just the other day and is now calmly seating here, he isnât probably anyone ordinary.
And on the contrary, the woman he brought next to him is emitting a quiet energy. Her facial features, hair and eye color are similar to the âAbsolute Shadow1â who crushed Arnold and his friends. If the other one was ăMovementă then this one is ăSilenceă. Her appearance is smooth, and she doesnât have any scratches or burn on her white skin. Every one of her moves was graceful but at the same time there was no opening. Although it is concealed, if you look closely, you can see that the energy hidden in her isnât so much different from the âSevered Shadowâ. Arnold has uncovered her concealment because her concealment is weaker than Infinite Varietyâs one. A member of Strange Grief. There is no doubt that she is categorize as one of the strong.
I lick my lips. However, now Arnoldâs position is higher than them.
There are some people who are saying that they would like to negotiate and buy the Relic we deposited. When we received such report, I thought that it was someone who love weird thing, but I would have never thought that it was âStrange Griefâ.\n
Initially, it was a product that I thought it would have been good if it could pay one drinking bill. But if there is someone who wants it then the story is different. Except for some scraps, useful Relics are expensive. In some case, the price may exceed hundreds of million.
The woman who introduced herself as Sytry says with a smile.
âCry-san has a hobby of collecting unusual Relics. That is why, Arnold-sanâs Relic also caught his eyesâŠâ
âIt is a rare item we brought all the way from Nebranubes. It had taken a lot of effort. We canât sell it to you at a low price. It is a product that can be sold even to someone who doesnât have any power. Isnât it right, Arnold-san?â
When Hay hears Sytryâs words, he grinningly smiles and looks at Arnoldâs expression.
Sell it as high as possible. If the opponent is a High-Level Hunter who exceeds Arnold and his friends, then they should have money.
Hayâs words are a bluff. At least that mask wasnât pick-up in Nebranubes. Even a noble who likes rare things have the right to choose. No one would want a fleshed mask that can only be seen as cursed.
Sytry removes her smile and makes a troubled expression.\nâI see⊠I understand the situation. But unfortunately, ⊠No one in this Imperial Capital would want such a creepy mask. Cry-san didnât say that he wants it at any cost.â
The negotiation was still in the early stage.
When he hears that voice, âInfinite Varietyâsâ eyebrow suddenly moved. His expression is distorted for a moment. Seeing this, Hay becomes confused.
It was an easy-to-understand change of expression. It is a problem even before having a poker face. When it is so obvious, we canât tell if he is really upset or if he is just pretending to be.
After all, is it an opponent we need to be on guard against?
âWe are not saying that we donât want to sell it either.â
âMaybe it will be more expensive to buy it here than at the auction. I donât think there will be anyone competing for that item. Isnât it the same line of thought than Arnold-san who is certified as a High-Level?â
It struck home. Arnold and his friends were told in advance the same thing when they went to request an appraisal. Both Hunters and nobles are wary when purchasing Relics. Although there arenât many, there are still some Relics that pose a risk to its owner. And all of these Relics haveăThat kind ofă looks.\n\nâWe canât even fathom the Relicâs power. If this keep going on, we canât put a price on it. Can you tell us what kind of power it has?â
It was just a little provocation. Information makes money. There is no one who will obediently explain everything just because he was asks to. However, it could be one of the factors to raise the price of it. Sytry who is next to him raises her eyebrow as if she was flabbergasted.
Then, âInfinite Varietyâ who is next to her responded with a serious face.
âIt is something⊠That I canât say.â
âFunnâŠâ
His answer is as expected. When Arnold wanted to scream and tried to complain, âInfinite Varietyâ made a smile as if he was troubled and says something unexpected.
âBut if there is one thing, I can say⊠If my predictions are correct then, that, is a bit dangerous. Even this countryâs laws prohibit its utilization. It is better to quickly get rid of it. â
Thx for reading! Sorry couldnât post it yesterday but I played way too much Valorant Competitive Mode and didnât translate! And we already have some misunderstanding with Cryâs power Level! XD Yeah is just concealing his strength sooooo well that if he fights against a slime he will run away! Just to not show his strength. What he is running away because he is afraid? Pffff thatâs just to trick your mind XD And Cry do you really think that they will just sell it to you because you said that XD Tchao Ă plus!
