Strange Grief Wants to Retire ~ The Weakest Hunter Dreams of a Hero ~

Chapter 302.1: Prophecy ⑤

The three curses follow. The most powerful Cursed Spirit People. Marin's Wails and the dark knight of unknown origin who suddenly appeared. The mixed miasma turns into a black cloud that erodes the Imperial Capital's sky. There are also insubstantial Phantoms and the like in Treasure Shrines, but Tino had rarely fought against such things. If they had been a little more Or rather a lot weaker, I could have said it was a good experience, but this time it was way over my tolerance.

Master~, aren't you overestimating me too much? I'm like a tiny speck of dustOr rather, there's no way I can handle something that even that phony Ikemen can't defeat, Master~!

While I was desperately trying to control Car-kun, I looked at Master~ who was *burabura* dangling.

Even at times like this, Master~ didn't lose his composure.

Does he have a plan that Tino can't even imagine? It's always like that. I'll look at death in the eye and barely survive. But even if I know about that, scary things are scary. I think that wandering between the boundary of life and death is not something that should often happen.

I had a glimpse of hope that Ark and the others would manage to defeat them, but it seems that even a hero would be unable to do so. In the first place, there is nothing I can do when the opponent is something even barriers don't work against it, and has a lot of endurance and would relentlessly pursue Master~ without looking back.

It's hard being so popular. (Cry)

Master~ Its figure It changed again! (Tino)

At the gate of the church. A black mass could be seen from above it. The mass *gunyagunya* wriggled squishily and changed its shape drastically again.

Spirit People are known for being the guardians of the forest. Although it is a place that humans rarely enter, the Spirit People form friendships with various plants and animals and protect the forest with their help in the city of Spirit People located deep in the Great Forest. Spirit People don't talk much about themselves, but legends say that a good guardian of the forest can even borrow the power of a Monster, to repel intruders. Perhaps, by borrowing power, they were referring to transforming with Magic.

The new form of the curse wasA Dragon. A jet-black dragon. A dark dragon with black wings and fangs similar to blades. It's about two sizes smaller than the monkey from earlier, but that is not salvation at all. That form isIt's one where it can fly in the sky. On top of it is the black knight and Marin's Wails. I've never seen anything like that before.

It's a dragon! A dragon! (Tino)

You think it flies? (Cry)

Of course it can fly. It's because it's a dragonMoreover, because it is the transformed form of a curse, it is not a goofy dragon like the Onsen Dragon.

Amidst the dark clouds of miasma, a dark dragon spreads its wings and flies through the sky. The scene reminded me of a scene coming from the ends of the world, and screams went up from all over the Imperial Capital. Even if the commotion were to be safely contained, there would be no way to recover from this

I could also see the knights protecting the Imperial Capital, but for some reason, there were obviously fewer of them than usual. In the first place, it seems difficult to drop that thing with an attack from the ground.

Even if Master~ Divine Strategy failed and was killed by it, that thing's anger would never subside. The fate of the Imperial Capital was now definitely in Master's~ hands.

Tino must do what she can.

Where do you want me to deliver you, Master~!? I will, absolutely, carry you there, Master~. (Tino)

Oh? Isn't that Sytry? (Cry)

Eh!? Ah (Tino)

I look in the direction Master~ is pointing. Just then, Sytry Onee-sama came out of a large, rugged building off the main street. It is hard to tell because she is wearing a rugged gas mask that completely hides her head, but there is no doubt. The person with her is probably also an Alchemist from Primus Academy of Magic Sciences.

With the hand grabbing Car-kun, I drive towards them while searching in my memories.

What kind of building was that Right. If I'm not mistaken, that should be the entrance to the Imperial Capital's underground sewers. It is the entrance to the terrifying sewer that stretches like a maze with Monsters and the like apparently living there, and accidents seem to occur regularly, so Tino remembers being very scared of this place when I was a child. It is a place where people rarely go. What in the world is Sytry Onee-sama doing in a place like that

In any case, I follow Master's~ instructions and took Car-kun there. Sytry Onee-sama widened her eyes for a moment when Tino and Master~ suddenly appeared on the carpet, but when she removed the gas mask, she immediately said with a blossoming smile.

Cry-san, you came just in time! I am currently doing some research on the ecology and water quality of the underground sewer! And I made a wonderful discovery thereSo, I would like to do some experiment with the Strawberry Blaze (Sytry)

Hmph I have a lot to say, but I will save it for later. Right now, we need to confirm the effects of the controlling drug first. (Nikolalf)

They have this attitude despite seeing Tino who came on the carpet covered in sweat and Master~ who came while dangling from the carpet. Is it a characteristic of all Alchemists to forget themselves when absorbed in something?

Even though a 3-course curse set is coming soon.

O-Ooh? (Cry)

Master~ was at a loss for words as his eyes widened at the sudden welcome from Sytry Onee-sama.

Come on, Master~. Tell Sytry Onee-sama that you want her to do something about those curses!

Sytry Onee-sama *jii* looked at Tino for a moment and hugged Master's~ arm who, even in this situation, wasn't nervous at all. Apparently, she didn't like the fact that Tino came with Master~. However, if you look at the desperate Tino and Master~ who was *burabura* dangling and still think that it looks like a date, then Sytry Onee-sama must really be blind.

And then Sytry Onee-sama said with a big smile on her face.

As expected, the potion was diluted and lost its effectiveness, but I discovered the urban legend! I'm sure Cry-san will like it too. There was a Dragon in the underground sewer, a Sewer Dragon! If the effect of the Strawberry Blaze is true, it should listen to Cry-san (Sytry)

Sew Sewer Dra Gon???

The curse roar rises from behind, and Sytry Onee-sama looks up at the sky for the first time. A jet-black dragon in the form of death is approaching from behind. In front of Tino, who was frozen by her unfamiliar words, Master~ *pon* hit his hands as if he had come up with something.

Are you serious, Master~

Thanks for reading! A sewer dragon! Sasuga Cry, he prepared everything! How will the dragon(?) fare against the 3 course cursed set!?
