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

his kind of small house is also exciting in its own way.
It is to the point that it is a pity that the other Clan Members can’t experience it.
If there is no danger, then such days aren’t so bad.
Above all, the word hideout (Well to tell the truth, it is a villa though) tickles man’s romance.
Compared to last night where I was in the carriage, it is a whole lot different.

Liz was also joyfully knocking on the walls.
…… Knocking the walls?

“Syt, the house looks like just a regular house but will the walls be fine?”

’

“Onee-chan, hasn’t Cry-san prohibited those kinds of checks? It has at least been reinforced, so I think that it would be able to resist some hits if it comes from regular Hunters’ weapons……”

“Ah! …… So, sorry, Cry-chan.
It wasn’t intentional…… It was just, a force of habit ――”

Liz panickly bowed her head but I think that it wasn’t that serious of a deal.
I just wanted them to not cause any trouble.
As long as we have a peaceful rest then it would be fine.

“Things that we need…… I think that I had prepared most of the things we would need.”

“Not bad.
If it was me who had to prepare it without instruction then I would have messed up ――”

Perhaps because she is a Thief, Liz was humming while looking around the house.

Trusting what Sytry said, I took off my cloak and sat down on the sofa in the living room.
For some reason my whole body felt a comfortable feeling of tiredness despite me doing nothing and only having a one day trip.
When I made a big yawn, Sytry-chan had boiled some water and made tea.

………… If I were a god, it would be almost time for me to give divine retribution to myself.

“As expected of, Master…… There are so many, openings.”

“…… Un, un, you are right.”

Tino who standed next to the sofa throws out words that I did’t know whether she was respecting me or taking me for stupid.
And at that time, Liz, who was moving left and right next to a bookshelf, made a small whistle.

’

Liz lightly pushed behind the bookshelf.
And without making a single sound, one wall slid down.

What appeared with the new wall was innumerable weapons lined up next to each other.
Long swords, knives, wands.
Guns and bowguns.
As expected, there weren’t any big weapons like spears or battle axes but it was like a weapon trade show.
A sharp-edged blade shines with the ambient light.

…… Was this a weapon store?

“Onee-chan, don’t touch, anything strange!”

“…… Heee.
What is this? Paralysis poison and sleeping pills? And…… Aphrodisiac? What did you intend on using it for?”

“Stop! Even I had arrangements planned! I was going to explain everything to Cry-san later!”

Apparently it wasn’t just a simple villa.
Sytry screamed each time Liz touched a floor or a wall.
The room that looked like, at first glance, like any other room in a regular house was full of gimmicks that was revealed by Liz.
If you fold the carpet, there was a trapdoor leading to an underground warehouse and inside the cupboard, there were potion bottles disguised so that at first glance, you would think that it was just some seasoning.
When she had prepared so much, you would be more impressed before being surprised first.

I wonder if all Hunters are like this……

TL notes:

Thanks for reading!
Here is an extra chapter courtesy of Eric!
Too bad there wasn’t a batcave behind the bookshelf, it was just a James Bond mechanic XD
Sytry what were you planning with the aphrodisiac? Were you thinking of bringing Cry here from the beginning? ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
Tchao à plus!
