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

Chapter 305.1: Prophecy ⑧

I can't believe even Lucia's Ears and Tail mode cannot do anything about her What the hell am I supposed to do? I was being carried by Tino in a semi-desperate state.

In the first place, the reason I managed to get through all the troubles I have encountered so far is because of the help of my friends. If Lucia and the others cannot do anything about her, there is nothing more I could do.

As usual, the curse was still single-mindedly coming toward me. I should call it a blessing in disguise that her hostility is directed only at me at the moment. Two of my Barrier Rings had been consumed when I was glared at and when she fired her attack that pierced through the wall of fire, so there was only one left. Isn't it super dangerous to have a barrier activated just because she glared at me? I can't help thinking that but come to think of it, Kechakchakka also scraped off one of my Barrier Rings by hitting a nail on a straw doll while screaming, so I guess that's what curses are.

The curse showed no sign of quelling her anger. On the contrary, it looks like she powered-up by acquiring a dangerous-looking staff in the auditorium.

A semi-transparent Spirit People is riding a black bird and chasing after me. Behind her were also the black knight and Marin's Wails with the black staff. On the other hand, there are Car-kun, Tino, the Carpet Rider, and me, who is *purapura* fluttering along like a fishing bait. We are completely at a disadvantage.

I wonder if she will forgive me if I get down on my knees and do a Dogeza

The only possibility left is Luke. As expected, even I am aware that it would be quite difficult to cut a curse with a sword, but he is the only card I can play after using all the others.

Aaaah, there is also Liz and Eliza too. Although I don't know where they are!

But Professor Sage wasn't there at all Even though there were so many Magi in the auditorium, where the hell did she go She is there when I don't want to see her, but she is not there when I want to see her, geez!

And then, I suddenly find Arnold among the people who are making a fuss below. Arnold and his large Party look up in astonishment at me who is running away on a carpet and the Spirit People chasing me. I do a sink-or-swim and shout loudly for help.

Arnold! Can you do something about that? (Cry)

Aaaah!? (Arnold)

Arnold seems completely unable to react. And just like this, I fly right over his head without him understanding anything. Even though you are Level 7, you are not used to this kind of battlefield, are you? Seriously, people like you

But despite all the fuss, what is wrong with Franz-san! Wasn't that guy supposed to be keeping peace in the Imperial Capital, no? The Imperial Capital is in danger, you know! He even took away the Symphonic Stone at the worst possible time Really Really! Seriously, everyone's just!

It would be a waste to just *burabura* dangle around, so I yell out loud. If I call him out, someone should call him. I don't want to be conspicuous, but you can't make an omelette without breaking eggs.

Franz-san! "Commander Franz (Franz Dancho)" of the Zero Knight Order! He-Lu-Pu Me! (Cry)

Master~!? (Tino)

The Imperial Capital is in a crisis! It's a curse! Franz-saaaan! Come quicklyyy! There's a dangerous curse! We're in trouble! (Cry)

I'll kill you, I'll kill you, I'll kill you Hh! (Cursed Spirit People)

The Spirit People chased after us while shouting this. She was terrifyingly fast, but Car-kun was still barely faster.

Avoid it, Car-kun! (Tino)

On top of that, Tino avoids the arrows of light shot from behind with brilliant instructions. I am grateful for that as I only have one Barrier Ring left, but That was something I always wanted to do, you know?

Even though I haven't even been able to ride it yet, Tino's Car-Skill has become something great. So unfair.

After several minutes of running for my life, the "Sword Saint's (Kensei)" dojo that had been cut in half by Luke finally came into my view. In the courtyard, many swordsmen swing their swords under the "Sword Saint's (Kensei)" tutelage.

Come to think of it, he said that he is going to retrain his students in order for them to overcome the curse I'm so lucky (Burnout) today.

Maybe the famous Sword Saint (Kensei) could even cut through a curse. Because Thawne-san seems to have won against the cursed magic sword too

The students, maybe noticing us coming from the sky, begin to point at us and make a fuss. If it was just Tino and me, it would have been fine, but the three chasing us were calling forth black clouds.

I yell at Thawne-san, who looks at me startled, and Luke, who opens his eyes widely next to him.

Thawne-saaaaaaaan! Luke! I'll leave this to you! (Cry)

Hh!? (Thawne)

!! Leave it to me, Cry! Uoooooooooooooooooooooo! (Luke)

Luke hears my call for help and starts running. It was probably purely on instinct. He probably doesn't even know what his enemies are. My childhood friend, Luke Psycol, the Thousand Swords (Senken) was that kind of man.

Tino lowers the carpet. Luke sprints past us as fast as he can with his uselessly high physical strength, and then he kicks on the ground and jumps.

Master~ Luke Onii-sama is Holding a wooden sword. (Tino)

Uoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo! (Luke)

!? (Cursed Spirit People)

The Cursed Spirit People, who had been thinking only about killing me, suddenly stops for a moment, as if she is startled by Luke's spirit, who rushes in without thinking. Even Marin's Wails is trembling. Luke uses his wooden sword to cut away the arrow of light that was released and then splits the Cursed Spirit People in half with his wooden sword, which had been burned by the light and reduced to half of its length.

!? (Tino)

!? (Cry)

Ah!? (Cursed Spirit People)

Tino's eyes widen and I was speechless. But the most surprised person is probably the Spirit People who was cut down.

The Spirit People who was cut in half instantly sticks back together and Luke exclaims.

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaah, she sticks back togetheeeeeeeeer! I still have a long way to gooo! (Luke)

No, well After all, it didn't have any substance, huh. Don't use a wooden sword to slay a curse that no one has been able to deal any effective damage until now, on the contrary, I'll be shocked if it did anything! Luke *poi* throws away the half-remaining wooden sword. The Spirit People said dumbfoundedly while rubbing the center of her body that was slashed.

Wh-What The hell is that guy!? (Cursed Spirit People)

Uoooooooooooooooooooh! It's a knight! Sw-Sword, a new sword! Kill! Kill1! (Luke)

Looking from the sidelines, Luke is the one who seems to be more cursed

Luke *kyorokyoro* looks around and spots the Magic Sword next to the Sword Saint (Kensei). The Spirit People notices this and reaches out her hand in a panic.

The Spirit People passes the sword to the black knight behind her and glares at me as if she just remembered me.

Hu-Human, how dare you, throw this, strange creature at me (Cursed Spirit People)

Somehow, I'm sorry about that. (Cry)

C-Could it be that, Sytry Onee-sama use this as a reference for Kilkill-kun's cries? (Tino)

Thanks for reading! Here's Saturday chapter Sasuga Luke, he almost cut a curse Will Luke be the one to save Cry

1. Kill, kill: here it is written cut/slash, but I left kill because it make sense with what Tino said later with Kilkill-kun cries.
