Chapter 151.1 \n<h1>Chapter 151 End of the Vacation ⑥</h1>\n\n As Arnold lay there helplessly, Sytry shoved her light blue potion into his mouth.
His half-opened eyes quivered and his pale face instantly regained its color. It was such a sudden change that it stunned Hay who was next to him and had a grim face.
As poison has various types, it seemed that their detoxification spell didn’t work because he was poisoned by a powerful poison. This wouldn’t have happened if they had given him the optimal antidote. Arnold, who was clearly on the verge of death just a moment ago, sat up with a tough expression.
Are Level 7 beings, monsters?
“!? Wh-what the hell………… M-my body is so…… Light…………” (Arnold)
“It was a very expensive healing drug. Naturally, we will charge you for it later. But it is better than dying, right?” (Sytry)
Come to think of it, Sytry fancied Arnold. With an indescribable expression, Hay thanked Sytry who looked very happy.
“Y-yeah, you saved us. Damn, I owe you one now. ………… What kind of poison was it?” (Arnold)
“………… It isn’t something that you can find in the general market, it is a poison made to kill Hunters. You need a really good Alchemist to refine it ―― So it probably came from Akasha. The maker’s name is…… Sofiane1.” (Sytry)
“…… It’s a name that I’ve never heard before.” (Arnold)
“Ti and I have a resistance towards it, but ―― I made the right call to bring medicine for it.” (Sytry)
As expected of Sytry, she is really reliable when you are in trouble. Arnold has been chasing me around a lot, but I don’t think he deserves to die for it.\n
For now, my life is no longer in danger, so I am going to listen to what he has to say. And then, I immediately felt like I wanted to puke.
Apparently, for some reason, this city was under attack by some bandits right now. Moreover, according to Arnold’s testimony, it was the group I had heard about just the other day, the group Count Gladys had nominated me to take care of, the Barrel Bandits Group. They are outrageous bandits who can toy with a real Knight Order.
The city of Surus is quite close to Gladys territory, but there are mountains between it and Gladys territory. Why is something like this happening here?
When I was disgusted by the nightmarish situation, Sytry said with a smile that made me feel like she was blossoming.
“To think that the ever so cautious Barrel Bandits Group would come and attack us…… As expected, even I couldn’t predict this development. Certainly, their level of covertness made sense now!” (Sytry)
…… Why do you look so happy, Sytry……?
And it is at times like this that Liz isn’t around. No, according to Sytry, there were quite a lot of them that are approaching from the outside, so on the contrary it might be lucky that Liz wasn’t here as she loves to jump inside groups of enemies like those (Well, she went to the mountain to look for Dragons, instead of giving up on finding one).
Arnold stood up, let out a deep and heated exhalation, and spoke in a low voice. Even though he was dying a moment ago, he feels so intimidating.
“Damn, I let my guard down once, but ―― I’m not gonna let that happen again.” (Arnold)
“Calm down, Arnold-san. You owe Cry-san a debt of gratitude. Shouldn’t you obey him for now? Or do Hunters from the Country of the Mist not return a favor they received?” (Sytry)
“Tsk……………… Fuck!” (Arnold)
Sytryyy…… What a thing to say.\n Arnold glared at me with murderous eyes, clicked his tongue hard, and sat down with his arms crossed.
I don’t have a way out of this. Neither do I have the power to. While Tino was fighting so hard, I was in the Onsen, remember?
I quickly *pachin* snapped my fingers.
“Yosh, I have decided. I will let Arnold-san and his companions take all of them out. So I will enter the Onsen then.” (Cry)
“Aaaaah!?” (Arnold)
Arnold’s eyes peel off at my half-serious joke. Hay and the other members of 《Fallen Mist》 were also stunned. At their reaction, my defensive instincts kicked in and I immediately changed my mind.
“I-it’s just a joke. A joke………… Hahaha…… But, you know, this time we are on a vacation, soooo……” (Cry)
I was completely swept away by the mood. When I stood there pathetically, Hay advised me in a serious tone.
“…… We are in a situation where we don’t even know how many enemies there are. Although we have one Level 8 and one Level 7 with us…… As far as I can see, our enemies are a fairly well-organized group. In my opinion, we should act with caution. It also seems like they have hostages with them.” (Hay)
I see…… I want to run away so badly. I wonder if I am being punished by the gods for skipping the White Sword Gathering so I can lazily dip inside an Onsen? I want to do something about this. The Onsen in this town is too good to give it to the bandits.
\n There was only one conclusion that could be reached.
