Chapter 73.2: Strange Grief Wants to Retire ~ The Weakest Hunterâs Hero Dream Chapter 73.2 \nâIt is harddd! Your personality isss! Baddd! Damnnn! I will beat that armorrrr! Isnât there any secret technique or special moveee!â\n
â⊠There is no way that a ăThief (Tozoku) ă have such a powerful move.â
The role of a ăThief (Tozoku) ă isnât to fight. In the first place, there is already something wrong with the fact that you tried to take on a Golem by yourself with your bare hands.
While Sytry is frowning as she is troubled, she also smoothly takes some notes. The strength of Alchemists is their stack of experience. Lizâs special training is an opportunity to collect valuable data for Sytry.
âStrange Griefâ have compete against each other and have grown as a party. When Sytry thinks about the time when Akashaâs armor will be broken, she has to come up with the next plan, she canât afford to rest.
At that moment, Lizâs movement, which showed no sign of slowing suddenly stopped. The doll that was flying around collapses on the floor as if his string were cut. While breathing roughly, Liz turns to Sytry. Her eyes are bloodshot, her whole face is burning red, she is sweating but her footsteps are firm.
âSyt, it is broken. !â
ââŠâŠâ
I sigh deeply and head for the abandoned doll. The doll had no noticeable scratches. Her proud alloy is dirtied by Lizâs blood but there are almost no scratches.
Liz grabs the dollâs right arm and forces it to stand. In front of Sytryâs eyes, the joint on its right arm is⊠The elbow part is exposed. Since the joints are movable, they are more fragile than other part of the body. The special alloy coating is also insufficient. The real Akasha also have measures taken against this by installing multiple layers of protective armor that doesnât interfere with its operation. But as expect I couldnât do that with this toy.\n
As expected, the joints that is shown couldnât withstand the impact and is cracked.
Liz clicks her tongue and stomps on the ground.
âTsk, is there nothing that you can do?â
âDonât complain! It was already very difficult to just prepare the same metal.â
It has already been a long time since Akashâs Golem study was completed. Almost no material remains, and it is because of the resources of the Tower of Akasha that we could make one Golem so powerful. To reproduce it, I would need a little bit less or as much as resources and people than when we made it.
Even Sytryâs assets isnât infinite. No matter how much I want to please my sister, I canât spend so much money for a training that I donât know if it will be useful or not.
I take out a potion for repairing metal from the inside of my potion bag and carefully pour it into the damaged arm. A small amount of smoke rises up and the previous crack has disappeared without traces. The strength isnât the same as before, but it canât be helped.
In the first place, isnât there a problem to keep training although the doll had his joint brokenâŠ?
Without knowing of Sytryâs inner feeling, Liz shouts.\nâIf it is like this, it wonât be a training. Nee1, bring back that irritating big crap! Right now!â
âDonât say something so selfish! The one who lost it is Onee-chan, right! I was going to get it back as a memento! Where did you fight it!?â
Sytry argues with tears in her eyes.
It was the perfect masterpiece. It is the proof that everyone worked hard. More than its high performance, I had precious memories on it. Initially, I was planning on taking it when I leave the ăTower of Akashaă but now it is missing.
When Sytry returned to the Imperial Capital, there wasnât any shadow or shape of it, so there was nothing she could do.
I heard that after fighting it in the wilderness and left, she left it there. I hurriedly went there but it was nowhere.
Anything left outside of the city is implicitly the property of the one who find it. Even if it is difficult to bring back something huge like Akasha, I wish that I had prepare countermeasure to prevent it from being stolen is my true thought.
Sytryâs words put a stop to Lizâs fury.
â⊠So, letâs put the useless talk aside⊠If you make it again, how much would it cost?â\n\nâAah. Speaking of which, if Cry-san could give me back the money he owes meâŠâ
I muttered when I thought of something that I donât have.
Even if I lent it, there is no interest or deadline for him to repay me. Eva told me to not lend him anymore and we have talked about repayment but Sytry didnât mind about lending him money.
Thatâs because I donât think that my ăBest Friendă who has a lot of income because he is Hunter will borrow money to waste it. Initially, Sytry started to collect money to increase what she could do⊠To increase her options to choose from. As for his hobby of buying Relic, I didnât think of stopping him because the Relics could be useful sometime when we explore with Strange Grief.
âAh, she is here. Sytry, and Liz. It is just right.â
At that time, the person who I was thinking about enters the training ground.
My sisterâs expression changes into a blossoming smile. When Cry came near Sytry, he says with an apologetic expression.
âSytry, I am sorry butâŠâ
Thanks for reading. âCan you lend me some moneyâ XD Just when Sytry was thinking about money issues. You couldnât have a better timing Cry! I am sure even Sytry wouldnât think you would borrow money immediately after Eva talk with her about not lending anymore money XD Tchao Ă plus!
