Chapter 58 - Meeting Again
Is suffering from insomnia lately, don’t feel too good to translate.
On a wasteland located on the north of Suminastar.
The sun has set for a while and the only things that illuminate them are only the dim moon light from above and the light generated from their camp fire.
“It’s alright, no problem. We have more people here. This job will be just as easy as the job before”
There are already twenty of them lurking under the shadow of a boulder.
After a bit while, the man leading them in the front silently lift his hand. With only that signal, that group of people spread out to their planned position. Their movements are neat and organized. This group seems to be a well-trained one and it proven by how they managed to surround the campsite without taking much time.
If one guard is to be surrounded by 3 people, then much less stalling, they can even finish the 3 guards quickly. And after they deal with the guards, they can steal the horse cart and all other valuables then the job for the night will be over.
The guards noticed his underlings sneaking toward him and start fighting. When he affirms that, he gives the sign to surround the horse cart while he also jumps into action.
But he immediately got thrown out by a sudden kick that is followed by an appalled voice.
Seeing their leader suddenly tumbled over like that, his underlings around got stunned as their legs stop moving spontaneously.
“GYAA!”
“DOA!”
The one who looks like the bandit leader can only sit there dumbfounded as his brain can’t follow what had just happened in front of his eyes which is something that totally different from what he had imagined before.
“Oops, no magic allowed now”
Renya who feels a fluctuation of magic on the bandit leader body conclude that he must’ve tried to form magic runes so he quickly come and kick him square in the chest to disturb his spell casting or whatever it was by not let
ting him concentrate.
The bandit leader thinks hard for a solution but he seems to be already check-mated.
He got roused up, it seems like there are still hope for him. The bandit leader then screams with all he had.
Too bad for him, because his sight is obstructed by the horse cart, he can’t see the situation on the other side.
“Nope, not at all. It seems like his fear got the best of him and made him hallucinate or so” Greiz just follow along with Arda joke and gives out his logical opinion.
The bandit leader had made light of these warrior guild elites combat power and earned his just due.
◇
From the information he heard about the bandit before, he knows that the bandit have a habit of constantly changing their base, it is clear that they are afraid of getting their tail tracked easily. Everyone could guess their hideout easily if they stay still in one place. After all, people could just guess it from the location of attacks and rough direction they come from. So Renya concluded that this group moves their base around while also executing their attacks.
There, Renya decided to lure the bandit group into a trap instead of chasing them around. His party and Greiz party will disguise as a trade caravan with the 3 from warrior guild acting as the guard and start traveling outside just like a normal merchant caravan that is doing its job trading to other city.
And the result is perfect. They made the one bandit acting as the leader to spit out all the information about their meeting point and other related information. But unexpectedly, they don’t need to chase the mobile group as the mobile group is closing in by themselves to the camp. They must’ve thought that the attack group’s attack was a success and they move in to join them. But too bad for them, what awaits for them there was not their ally but instead a surprise attack. With that, Renya and his companion managed to capture more than 30 bandits just like that and take them to jail.
The job that they accepted had been perfectly accomplished without any complain.
Arda’s mood is considerably good as he keeps on laughing. Well, it’s not like I don’t understand his feeling. After all we managed to finish the job without much receiving any damage and without having to spend much on the usual expense to do the job but still managed to land ourselves for the prize money which is not little either.
Because of the scale of the mission, the one who issues the job, Tosminia Kingdom, also prepares a big reward because they also thought that this mission isn’t feasible with only a small number of people. But when they learnt of the fact that the job was accomplished by a team that had a far below number of member than what they had guessed before, it just surprised them greatly.
“Roger that leader. But I’m really surprised by your party member, boy. Seems like Darel’s judgment about your party not being normal hit the home”
After not meeting them for a while, the trio from warrior guild is really surprised by how much Renya’s party has grown and they keep on praising them without holding back.
(Well, what do you expect from a rule breaking god’s private party)
With that kind of lineup, finding a human who could stand up decently against them would be very difficult. After all, the previous mission still a big success even when they still holding back their true power. If they went all out, they might even win against a kingdom’s entire army so against those bandits small fry, this result can only be said as something natural.
“You are welcome but we would not be able to do the job by ourselves either. After all I’m the only man in my party. We don’t look dependable enough to receive such big quest which often resulted in us getting rejected from accepting the job. Thanks for letting us work together with your party too, Greiz-san”
“What will your group do next, Greiz-san?”
“You guys really are in great demand nowadays”
“Understood, good luck”
After saying their goodbye, Greiz party left.
“Well then, we managed to get a jackpot this time so what should we do next?”
“You are using the [Archer] job this time right? Why did you feel tired when you don’t need to move much?”
Floria slowly nuzzle her body against Renya’s body like saying ‘praise me~ praise me~’ to him with her act. But Renya just coldly peel her off him. It doesn’t mean that he doesn’t feel happy from Floria’s skinship. He just doesn’t want to become too conspicuous in a bad way in the middle of public places like this. For once, he knows that it was already too late but he just doesn’t want to give up trying just yet. Well, condolence for him.
“Okay, I understand. What will you do after this Renya?”
“Yes, I’d be glad to desu!”
“Hey! Elvira!? Don’t you think it’s cruel to treat me like this!?”
“What is this bad feeling did I feel!” Floria scream out loud but Elvira just ignores her and drags her along by force. Brenda then follow after the two calmly like usual. After seeing of the three girls, Renya and Therese walks back again to the government office.
“Umm…… I know you are quite capable from your record but this one is kinda……”
“This job requires you to be in a party with a few people in it. Even a temporary one is okay you know?”
Twin sword and chestnut colored hair.
“Oniisan, that girl, is the girl from yesterday desu”
“She seems to be troubled with something desu……”
“Fue?”
“…… I’ll go desu!”
A second meeting means that they are connected with something similar to fate. He only heard a little bit of their conversation but it seems like she needs to get more people to work together with her. Confident with his conclusion, Renya then goes into action to try to give a helping hand to the girl.
“Ah, Renya-san. What’s the matter? Is there any problem with the prize money that you just received before?”
“Yes it is. Actually, the job that she tried to get is quite a dangerous one. It is a job to subjugate a dangerous monster that is. We know how capable she is from her record but by our standard, this job need to be done by at least a small group of people and that also become the requirement to accept the job. We just can’t send her alone to do such dangerous mission……”
No matter how strong you are, no matter how great your achievement in the past were, there are limits of what you can do if you do things alone.
Renya then turns his head to face the girl. With his power as a god, he, who already had a good judgment skill when looking at people become even better at it, concludes that he can’t feel anything evil from the girl. Rather, her eyes are just too straightforward that he even feels somewhat awkward when looking at her eyes.
“……… E………?”
No, it seems like she is not acting like that because she is surprised from Renya calling her. But why did she gives this much reaction from a mere greetings?
“E?”
She also seems to be surprised from what she reflexively said so she just shake her head.
“…… Is that so? Well, I don’t really mind so it’s alright. Anyway could I have a second?”
“That job request that you are doing, do you want to take it no matter what?”
“I understand. We just don’t know when we can earn this much money again so it’s best to earn as much as we can right?”
“Well then, how about join a party with us? Of course the reward will be equal for both parties. You will get 50% and my party will also get 50%”
“We are basically not separates our party money individually. If we get paid more than our party activity cost then even half of the reward is alright”
To make the other party feel comfortable, Renya gives out a warm smile.
The girl still seems to feel hesitated for Renya proposal but then Therese come and try to give her the last push.
“…… A, it’s you……”
“Well it was just yesterday after all”
“Our girl here is pretty concerned looking at you who works your best alone like that. That’s why I call you up. It might be fate after all so would you like to try working together with us?”
Looking at Therese who is pouting cutely from her interaction with Renya, the girl was surprised for a moment.
“…… Okay, I understand. Then we’ll work together. Please help me”
Therese grabs both of the girl's hand and start swinging it up and down in happiness. It just happen to suddenly that the girl seems to be perplexed from Therese’s action but she just let her do what she want.
“…… A, I forgot……”
“……… Rebecca Saxton, pleased to meet you”
