Chapter 58: 58

Flamehounds

***---***

 

When I was explaining the situation to Reinhardt who came back to my room on the second floor, Mirt came back.

 

"Goshujin-sama, they've entered a building, Mart is watching."

 

"Okay, Murt, stay here and tell me if Meisa comes to tell me supper's ready."

 

"Okay, Goshujin-sama."

 

Leaving Murt as an answering machine, we headed to the building where Mart was waiting.

 

Since I moved in the shadow world with Mart as a landmark, I don't know where it is in the city, but the five Flamehounds are gathered in a room like a drawing room.

 

"And that's why, you guys will stop at C-rank no matter how much time passes."

 

Chezari and the slender man are shrinking back in front of the bearded dog beastman who seems to be exasperated.

 

Four people, two on each side, sit face to face on the long side of a rectangular table, and the leader Bartolo sits in the seat of honor.

 

"Tony was with me and it still became a mess ... I'm ashamed ..."

 

The shaved-headed giant, who had a large shield, also looked exasperated, looking down at the two people who were shrinking back.

 

Apparently the slender man is called Tony.

 

"You couldn't get any results, and on the contrary, you smeared mud on the name of the Flamehounds, you fools!"

 

Bartolo was glaring at the two with his arms folded, with an infuriated look.

 

"That brat called Kent, if we could lower his reputation, our treatment would be even better."

 

"I'm sorry, Bartolo-san, that brat called Kent, he knew strange things ..."

 

"Yes, he knew we were aiming for a Gigawolf ..."

 

"What did you say ... where did he get wind of that, did you tell someone?"

 

"No ... that is ... ..."

 

"It was a bad atmosphere ... or rather ..."

 

"Idiot! Didn't you try to find out how the enemy got the information? You fool!"

 

"Hii, I'm sorry!"

 

Chezari and Tony shrunk even more, being yelled at by Bartolo.

 

At this rate, I think they will be small enough to hold in your hands in about three hours.

 

"Well, now Volzard is being invaded by monsters. It should be a time for adventurers to make money. And yet, the city is peaceful. Why?"

 

"Well, that's because of the brat called Kent ..."

 

Chezari replied, while freaking out, to Bartolo, who leaned forward and asked.

 

"Yes, it's said that the brat called Kent used monsters to defeat the hordes of monsters alone. It's rumored that there were more than 200 rock ogres and more than 350 orcs yesterday. Do you understand the meaning of this?"

 

"Um ... that brat Kent is employing strong monsters ..."

 

"Are you stupid! That's not it, you're really an idiot aren't you ..."

 

He doesn't seem to like Chezari's answer, and yells at him again, and it looks like Chezari has shrunk again.

 

Is Bartolo the user of magic that shrinks things?

 

As they send fleeting glances at Bartolo, the dog beastman sneered at them.

 

"It can't be helped, this Orest-sama will tell you the answer ... It means that Kent brat is monopolizing the magic stones."

 

"Ah ... that brat, is he really making so much?"

 

As the dog beastman Orest says, I'm in a state of having a monopoly on the magic stones, but I still have to take care of 150 people, and I plan to use half of the orcs' magic stones for reinforcement.

 

Sitting back in his chair, Bartolo opened his mouth, looking around at everyone.

 

"Well, if there were no brat called Kent, we could earn a lot of magic stones, and our fame will increase as we take out the monsters. Think carefully, there are over 350 orc magic stones. No matter how cheaply you estimate it, it should be between 3.5 million and 4 million Helts."

 

"4 Million Helts ..."

 

"Hmm, and he earns that in just one day ..."

 

It seems that all five Flamehounds are completely dazzled by gold.

 

I wonder if these people are really strong.

 

Even if they're strong, can just five people subdue the 374 orcs?

 

[ How about it, Reinhardt? ]

 

[ These people, although I don't know if they are master level, but I don't think these five alone could subdue them. ]

 

[ I know right, somehow, Ridner and the others who said it was over if they died seem more like veterans. ](TN:In case you forgot, Ridner's group is the group always getting crushed in the guild job request rush, who took the combat class with Kent and Manon)

 

[ If you trust the rumors, this Bartolo is an A-ranked adventurer, and although he has a good track record, he has never faced a horde of more than 200. ]

 

[ He doesn't have the actual experience ... that sort of thing? ]

 

[ Probably ... ]

 

Even so, I wonder if they themselves would actually subdue the monsters or focus on their own interests, in which case the mass outbreak of monsters could endanger the city.

 

"Bartolo-san, what about the Gigawolf?"

 

"That's right ... Keep trying to find it, but don't be too focused on it."

 

Bartolo replied to Chezari's question as to whether he should simply stop aiming for a Gigawolf.

 

"Well, does it have to be a Gigawolf?"

 

"Tony, Gigawolf or orc, which is more dangerous?"

 

"That's, of course, Gigawolf."

 

"Which is better, risk your life or earn it easily?"

 

"Obviously it's better to take it easy and earn money."

 

"Then you know which one we should aim for."

 

"I see ..."

 

The door of the room was knocked upon as the five Flamehounds were grinning at each other.

 

"Excuse me, dinner is ready, and I'd like you to join Nazario-Bouchama and tell him a heroic story ..."(TN:Bouchama is young master of a rich family)

 

"Okay, we'll go right away, please tell Nazario-tono that we'll be there shortly."(TN:Tono/Dono = Lord/Master not necessarily a noble)

 

"Understood."

 

The maid who brought news of supper was given a lustful look by the five people, but I felt that the wording of the response was just as dignified as it should be towards an A-rank.

 

As the maid left the room, Orest, the dog beastman, snorted.

 

"Snort, here also you have to babysit a brat, it's tough Bartolo."

 

"If you think so, you guys should help, he's a promising candidate as a gold mine, so don't be rude. And don't mess with this brat like Kent. He'll cut it off so that you can't hold a woman, so I won't do that ..."

 

Everyone nodded at Bartolo, who looked away.

 

I see, this is Nazario's house, is it? It was a store called Orlando Store.

 

The reason Flamehounds came out to Amanda-san's shop for a while was to damage my reputation and get Nazario in a good mood.

 

[ Well then ... what should I do now? ]

 

[ It's just one right after the other, Kent-sama has it hard. ]

 

As the five Flamehounds headed for a meal, we returned to the boarding house, leaving Mart to keep watch, and began a discussion on what to do next.

 

At the time of the turmoil, the Flamehounds were probably in the Devil's Forest, so they weren't involved in the turmoil.

 

From the story of the maid and the conversation that followed, it is unclear whether Bartolo and the others moved due to the instructions of Nazario, but it seems likely that they are acting to improve their position and profits.

 

[ If they think I'm not going to say anything if they involve Meisa-chan, I feel that they're going to continue to meddle. ]

 

[ That's quite likely, we're not going to be aggressively hostile at this point, but it's better to let them know that it's not a good idea to turn us into an enemy. ]

 

[ Yeah, that's right, they have various problems, but when Volzard is attacked by thousands or tens of thousands of monsters, their strength will be a valuable asset. ]

 

I don't know what the situation will be when tens of thousands of monsters invade, but if my genus alone can't handle it, we'll have to have the adventurers fight.

 

I don't think the five Flamehounds will fight for free, but if they kill monsters to survive, it should help reduce the total number.

 

[ The question is, how do we warn them? ]

 

[ That's right, I feel like they won't withdraw if it's done half-heartedly ... ]

 

When I was worrying about how to deal with the Flamehounds, I heard footsteps coming up the stairs.

 

"Kent! Supper time ..."

 

"Thank you, Meisa-chan ...? What's wrong?"

 

Meisa has her eyes wide opened and is standing stiff with the door open.

 

"Wh, wh, what is that! What, that Fluffy!"

 

"What? Ah ..."

 

I Fluffed Milt and Murt and kept them out in the open.

 

"Milt and Murt are my genus."

 

"Milt ... Murt ..."

"Both of you, Meisa-chan is an important person, so say hello properly."

 

"This one is Milt."

 

"This one is Murt."

 

"They talked! The Fluffy talked ..."

 

Miesa-chan's eyes aren't the usual when she looks at Mirt and Murt, and she is breathing through her nose excitedly.

 

"I, I want to touch ..."

 

"Okay, but don't be violent."

 

"I won't, I absolutely won't ..."

 

Meisa-chan, approached timidly, and gently reached out to Mirt.

 

"Howaa ... Fluffy, amazingly Fluffy! Wafuuu ..."

 

While petting Mirt, Meisa-chan is enchanted.

 

"Kent! Meisa! What are you doing, hurry up and come down or you won't get dinner!"

 

"Yes, we're coming now! Look, Meisa-chan let's go."

 

"No, a little more ..."

 

"You can pet them slowly later, so look ..."

 

"Uuu ... I definitely will ..."

 

Not just Milt and the others, but Zae and the others haven't been introduced to Amanda-san and Meisa-chan yet, so let's take this opportunity to introduce them.

 

Otherwise, if something happens and they come to help, when they meet for the first time, they'll think they're just monsters.

 

After dinner, I told Amanda-san about the story behind the ruckus from earlier in the evening.

 

"I see, getting a grudge because of Beatrice-chan, that's a real nuisance."

 

"I'm sorry, I'll have to do something so that they won't bother you anymore ..."

 

"Well, I don't have anyone who believes such stupid stories among my customers, but it'll be troublesome if they bother us, so do something about it."

 

"Yes, by the way, I've increased the number of companions in my genus, like Reinhardt and the others, so I'd like to introduce you."

 

Meisa-chan was restless during dinner, and it seems that she can't help but want to pet Mirt and the others.

 

"Well, first of all, from the undead kobolds, Mirt, Art, come out for me please."

 

"Eeeh ... they're different ..."

 

The fluffy and cute Mirt and Art with a fearless figure look a little different, but the specs are almost the same.

 

"Nice to meet you, I'm called Art."

 

"This one is Mirt."

 

"Oh, how surprising, the kobold spoke."

 

"Hey, hey, Kent, can I pet it a little?"

 

Meline-san also seems to want to experience the Fluffy, so she's impatient.

 

After confirming with Art and Mirt, when I give the OK, Meline-san went to Art to Fluff, and Meisa-chan hugged Mirt.

 

"They're pretty cute, but are they useful?"

 

"Of course, if it's about the level of an orc, they'll kill it instantly."

 

"Eeh, that totally doesn't match their appearance."

 

"Yes, I was careful not to give too much intimidation when I strengthened them."

 

After all, even in this world, cuteness is justice.

 

"And the next one I'm going to introduce is an undead lizardman specializing in combat, so it's quite poweful, so don't be surprised, Zae ..."

 

I introduced them after making a preface, but when Zae emerged from the shadow world, all three tightened their facial expressions.

 

So I stood next to Zae to show them it was okay.

 

"I'm Zae, the undead lizardmen's coordinator."(TN:Zae speaks with ending sentences with desu, should I add that? Or just leave it like this.)

 

"It's the first time we've met, I'm the Landlady, pleased to make your acquaintance ..."

 

"Wow, this one talked too ..."

 

"Yes, I tried to strengthen Reinhardt and the others so that they could speak, but they could only talk with telepathy, probably because they're only bones. On the other hand, Zae and the others and Art and the others can speak, so you can communicate with them."

 

"My King has told me to protect the people of thise house, and I will protect you if anything happens."

 

Perhaps he learned from Reinhardt, Zae does the knight's salute, and the facial expressions of the three relaxed.

 

"We are also told by Goshujin-sama to protect this house."

 

"There are five undead lizardment and thirty-three undead kobolds, so don't worry, I'll always have someone watch over the store."

 

Hearing the number of my genus, all three froze up.

 

"Mom, it's amazing, it's like a fairy tale."

 

"Oh, it's a really unbelievable sight."

 

"That's right ... but I can't believe it's Kent doing this."

 

"Ah, seriously ..."

 

I know Amanda-san and Meisa-chan are very good people, but I feel that my treatment is terrible ... At this time, Meline-san's hug is ... Art's!

 

Ah, I also need healing ... When I looked around the store, I noticed a box on the table.

 

"That ... Amanda-san, what is that box?"

 

"Hmm? Oh, that's a cookie box I got from a customer, do you want to take it?"

 

As soon as Amanda-san said that, an intense wrinkle appeared between Meisa-chan's eyebrows, it's not possible to take it with me.

 

"No, not the contents of the box, but if possible, I would like that ribbon ..."

 

The cookie box is tied with a red ribbon that has been untied once.

 

"What will you use the ribbon for?"

 

"Yes, I'd like to write a letter of reconciliation to those who were making noise in the evening and attach it ..."

 

"Huh? Putting a ribbon on a letter to those thugs? Can you reconcile with that?"

 

"Well, if you don't try it ..."

 

Meisa-chan also wanted the ribbon, but apparently gave up when she heard that I would use it for negotiations with the Flamehound guys.

 

If I don't do it soon, it will be useless to reconcile.

 

It may cause an uproar if the customers see them, so everyone in my genus won't show up on the first floor of the store except in an emergency situation, if there was a situation, they could talk to Amanda-san in the kitchen.

 

Meisa-chan seemed to be dissatisfied, so when Mart, Mirt, and Murt had spare time, I decided to rent them out for when she went to bed.

 

"Amanda-san, these kids don't lose their hair, and they don't sleep, so it's okay."

 

"Ahahaha, well then, only one person needs to worry about bed-wetting."

 

"Kiiii! I won't do it, I won't do bet-wetting any more!"

 

While being hugged by Meisa-chan, Mirt looks very worried, so I'll explain later that you probably don't need to worry.

 

After finishing the introduction of everyone in my genus, I moved from my room to Lastock and explained the aftermath of the turmoil while taking care of the chairman.

 

When I gave out the name of Sumika Kizawa, the chairman's expression became cloudy.

 

"I'm not good with Kizawa-san ... I don't want to say bad things about others, but ..."

 

The chairman talked to me after making a preface, but it seems that she is leading the bullying, cheating on tests, and other bad rumors.

 

However, she says it's just rumors, and she seems to be good at moving around.

 

"Maybe if Kent says this and that directly, I feel that trouble will increase ..."

 

"Hmm ... but I'm in trouble if something happens ..."

 

"It's better to talk to Tomo-chan and At-chan before acting."

 

"I see ..."

 

According to the chairman, Kizawa-san, who is good at moving around, is not hostile to the dekoboko sisters who are overwhelmingly popular with the girls.

 

"But that's because in the past the dekoboko sisters were overwhelmingly supported, right?"

 

"Yeah, that's right."

 

"Now, it's about 17 to 8 power difference ..."

 

"Ah, yeah, there are only 25 girls, hmm ... maybe you have to do things so that they don't get too angry ..."

 

"Hmm ... do we have another time bomb besides Takayama ..."

 

"For the time being, Kent should concentrate on the rescue operation."

 

"Yeah, I wonder if I should do that ..."

 

I haven't had a chance to get close to any girls so far, so I have no idea how to deal with girls like Kizawa-san.

 

I'm a little sorry, but let's let the girls handle the whole thing about the girls.

 

I kissed the chairman and returned to Volzard.

 

Let's send a letter to the Flamehounds.
