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

Chapter 369.1: Future That Lies Ahead

Infinite Variety (Senpen Banka), the Divine Strategist, huh It is a bit of an exciting spectacle he showed there. (Adler)

The mirror of reality that has been reflecting the distant scenery of Yggdra suddenly loses its light. I, Adler carefully polish the cracked mirror of reality that has fulfilled the orders from me, its Guide, by using all its strength, then put it away in my pocket.

Uno, who was also staring intently at the scene in the mirror with a serious expression, checks on us.

Is it going to be alriiight? About the mirror of reality I mean. (Uno)

I expected it, but Its no good. I wonder how long it will take before it revives Well, Ill wait patiently. I overworked it too much this time. (Adler)

The mirror of reality is an ancient mirror that has been transformed into a Monster. It can only reflect its target so it is not a Monster that can engage in combat, but as it is a living creature, it has its limit.

In the past, cracks appeared when I looked into the innermost part of the Temple of  Origin, but the impact of looking into the battle this time is incomparable to that time.

It is still, just *girigiri* barely, alive. But it is unclear how long it will take to regenerate. It may even take decades.

But even soI had to know about that battle. In order to move forward.

The battle between Keller and the Fox God summoned by Infinite Variety (Senpen Banka). The clash between two gods that can destroy the world is on a level that I have never even imagined before.

Compared to that, all the battlefields that we have been through up until now are like trash. Even the battles we have experienced since coming to Yggdra are nothing compared to that. It is perfectly clear that Keller was not a bit serious when we fought him. And even in that state, I was helpless even with YudenI guess that means the world is much bigger than what I had imagined.

And there is no need to talk about Infinite Varietys (Senpen Banka) skill that created this God VS God matchup.

We are in a rural town far away from Yggdra. It is the town farthest away from the World Tree, to which we went to by using up all of Rippers remaining power. In this place which is far from Zebrudia, there are no rumors about Infinite Variety (Senpen Banka).

It is a defeat that we can no longer lie to ourselves. However, I no longer intend to refute it anymore.

Infinite Variety (Senpen Banka)That man, definitely didnt need to team up with us (Quint)

Says Quint with an exhausted voice. Hes absolutely right. If he can guide such a powerful god, he doesnt need any help from others.

It cant be helped that we couldnt win against that, we cannot win. Now Im feeling refreshed.

We shouldnt have gotten involved so easily with him. NoShould I say its a good thing that we got involved with him before we could make a name for ourselves?

It is because if we had been stronger, that man would have been completely hostile towards us.

Quint looks at me.

Adler, what do we do now? (Quint)

Lemme seeee (Adler)

It is a broad question. But I understand exactly what he implied in those words.

What will we do from now onWill we continue to be Demon Kings (Maou) as Night Parade (Hyakki Yako), or are we going to give up on that?

Most of the Monsters that are on our command are dead. The only one that is still usable is the Card Soldier that Quint subjugated in Yggdra, so there is no fighting force left in Night Parade (Hyakki Yako). Of course, Monsters can be replenished. It will take time, but we will be able to make a comeback. Though Infinite Variety (Senpen Banka) is undeniably a monster, we are still confident that we are stronger than the majority of Hunters in the world.

But I think for a while, *boribori* scratch my head, and say.

Im a bit tired. Maybe we can try our hand at helping people next time. (Adler)

No well, I understand the logic, but leaving Uno aside, do we have the face of someone who helps people? (Quint)

Thats not true~. If you adjust your hairstyle, your outfit, and other things, I think even Adler-sama can help people~. It may seem a little late to say this, but we are in a time where power is needed, so I think there are things we can do to help~. (Uno)

It seems that Quint and Uno have no intention of continuing their activities as Night Parade (Hyakki Yako). I scratch my cheek as Quint and Uno begin a lively discussion without any hesitation about this unexpected proposal that is the complete opposite of their previous activities.

Thanks for reading! Looks like Adler is now good. Sasuga Cry converting his enemies without doing anything! Next chapter is the final one of this arc!
