Chapter 77 - Before going to Malsia (1/2)

I remember their reaction last time when I was asked to investigate the king behemoth incident, they're all reluctant to let me go. This time around, another S rank monster appear, plus, I'm going far, to the neighbouring country in fact, so it comes to no surprise that they're all once again, reluctant to let me go

”But last time you're up against the king behemoth, you almost lost!” [Rean]

”If it wasn't for the help of other four behemoths, who knew what will happen to you back then!” [Elise]

”And now you're up against the monster closest to the god of death, Thanatos itself!” [Mara]

”Another S rank monster... Brother Ash, are you sure you wanted to go there?” [Kara]

”Isn't there anyone else well-suited for the job?” [Karon]

”Are they involved as well?” [Claude]

”Most likely” [Ash]

”I see, that is...” [Rafiah]

”Who are ”they” you guys talking about?” [Zerolith]

”Looks like Brother Ash didn't tell us the full story here” [Farhah]

”It's still under investigation, so I might not even deal with them” [Ash]

”Will you be going against bad guy?” [Savel]

”Brother Ash is strong... but going against a bad guy and an S rank monster at the same time is...” [Singa]

(Oh boy, this isn't going well. I'm reluctant to go in the first place, and they're making it harder for me to go. I can refuse but if what King Estel fear do come true and this Achalasia Externa group achieve their objectives...) [Ash]

(...) [Charlotte]

Charlotte suddenly get up from her sit and sit in my lap.

”What's wrong Charlotte?” [Ash]

”Last time Brother Ash does that face, Brother Ash does for us. I don't understand but I'm sure Brother Ash doing it the same thing now” [Charlotte]

”That's...” [Others]

”But do come back quickly and bring us some gifts!” [Charlotte]

”Haha, sure. I'll be sure to bring you all some nice gifts” [Ash]

”...” [Others]

”Remember what I said back then? Instead of making a sad face like this, why don't you all send him off with a bright smile” [Claude]

”That smile does pull me through during my fight with the king behemoth, and I'm sure it will do the same when I'm going up against the Corrupted Thanatos” [Ash]

”Like this?” [Charlotte]

”Now that's cute” [Ash]

”Fine...” [Elise]

”But please come back safely this time” [Rean]

”If you're coming back like last time after the fight with king behemoth...” [Kara]

”We won't forgive you!” [Singa]

”Noted” [Ash]

”I'll be sure to support your brother with everything I have” [Haliza]

”That's goes the same for me” [Mira]

”Do take care of him” [Claude]
