”Take everything ya got and leave it right there If you value that life of yours, that is”
A three hter, a shter's skills had failed hiainst such a ridiculously strong man His party lay strewn about in critical condition Not even the Magician's hter looked back and forth between the bag and his party as if weighing the decision for ait out
”There's a good boy Now just give that to h”
He grabbed the bag with his large hands and began rifling through it He tossed away their precious ite potions splattered on the floor, painting it blue
”Y'know, you should have so solanced around at theay?”
The Sword Fighter rear words The hter had in his party's abilities in an instant He had no willpower left to oppose such a monster It was the first time in his life he had ever met anyone like him
”Well, this'll do for now I guess Here” The large hter's face He stayed silent as he allowed the bag to hit hiht it before it could fall to the floor
”Quit adventurin' You were lucky it was me this time I'm nice, you see But what if it was so it'd take you to get C Rank?”
” Half a year”
”Half a year!” Thehis sto back
”You're a bunch o' losers! Most people take half aten times that! Did ya take a vacation? Or did you stick to horseshi+t jobs like fetching goblin ears? Any idiot can do those jobs and get to C Rank! Half a year, hah! You must be a special kind of h even louder this time
The young Sword Fighter fought to hold back back tears, lest he give the ed to bear it
”Corunted and nodded towards the Sword Fighter's party members on the floor ”Those idiots over there dead?”
The young man snapped back to reality and realized his two coe le, offering no help whatsoever

”Ryua, seriously?”
”J-just a little longer!”
We had been in the weapon shop for over twentywhich sword I would choose I had 200 gold to spend On one hand, there was an iron sword for 180 gold, and on the other was a wing sword for 150 gold The iron sas sharper, but the wing sas lighter and swifter As if the decision wasn't hard enough, whateverour lunch
Roel had given old for pocket money She handled all the money we received from the co expenses because I don't think I could have ed if I tried
So I stood there, still thinking The iron sas sharper, and that could be the difference betinning and losing But the wing sas faster, which would help if I needed to quickly save someone
I couldn't stop worrying and I couldn't decide at all I kept reaching out for one, only to draw my hand back Then I'd do the same for the other
The weapon shop oas leaning on the counter with his head propped up on his elbows, givingjust get on with it already”
”Ryua, don't you already have a sword? Why can't you just use that one?”
”That one has soht in it, it wouldn't end well I thought it would be safer if I just used a normal sword”
Of course I was talking about what happened during ht that had seeped from his wounds before he exploded I had felt like if I were caught in it, I would have been destroyed, too
I couldn't even i myself with my oord accidentally, so that was another reason I decided a normal sas better
”C'mon Ryua, you're so powerful anyway it doesn't even matter what you use”
”That's not really the issue here…”
Roel wouldn't get it Neither sword had a large advantage over the other The iron sould givesould do the same for my speed It was such a small difference, but that was exactly the reason it was so hard to choose I wanted to give them a try, but it didn't seem like I could do that
”Hey, Roel… What if I were to get b-”
”Nope” Roel was extremely strict with our funds She was a very careful person and ed our accounts very precisely
”Meanie…” I tried to look sad and stared at the ground, but it didn't affect Roel at all She saw right through my act
”Handle a coive you a weapon better than either of those” The shopkeep h
So if I just did a coet a weapon? I was immediately sold
”You see-” He began to speak but just then the door to the shop opened He greeted the custonored The customer quickly made his way to the counter
”I' for theive them away for free”
”How do you expect to be an adventurer without a weapon? After all, it's pretty obvious you're a Sword Fighter” The shopkeep stared, astonished by what the young man said
”It's fine I don't need them anymore”
”Ah, I see…” He see I didn't and started to calculate the price of the weapons
”Well then, here you go”
”Thank you”
The young ht out of the shop He walked as if he had no energy, slouched over and ar to his side like he was about to collapse
”Looks like another victim A failed adventurer, that is It can happen to the best of them Heh, it even happened to me once upon a time”
”You used to be an adventurer?” I asked
”Ah, it was such a long tile person who didn't know the na over with the memories
