Volume 4 Chapter 1 (1/2)
《Some noble sisters》
The ic, but they didn’t dare to go to the dungeon again It was not about the physical wounds The sense of sha beaten by the orcs, and the fear of the lu by the situation, Haroon knew that forcing theht cause an irrecoverable disaster, so he decided to give soain to take revenge He presumed it was because they were NPCs so they couldn’t help but fear death as they only had one life
”It is my humble opinion we’d better move away fro spirit”
Teeno was on point So Haroon decided to eon, to the rocky , and it was a great place to stay temporarily as there were a lot of caves that could be used as caically becaer
After spending a night at the new basecaathered his members
'I’d hoped I could share the iteeon of the lump orcs, but they didn’t even meet the minimum equipment requireht, letting out a long sigh
Haroon gazed at each one of hisdown feebly, and opened his mouth
”I know every one of you have felt so with the lued”
Everyone had a serious expression on their faces
”But I don’t think anyone of you are weaker than a lu experience Philip, Ritrina, and Teeno, you are er than theent they were, we are still smarter than them”
That helped them to feel better Except Serinn
”I think it’s best to utilize your advantages in the fight In any type of coth over your weakness, that doesn’t necessarily th and the eneht”
”You have a point”
Teeno, who has lots of experience, spoke up to support Haroon’s inspiration
”Moreover, we lack experience in coot easily messed up by the lued like this If we learn to utilize our strength with this experience, we can win next time
Their faces seehter Of course, except Serinn
”Noe knohat kind of ths and weaknesses, so e need to do to cover the weaknesses and iths I think we should stay for 5 days near this place Since we are equipped with new skills, that should be enough time for us to train our skills and our ability”
”Got it, Boss I feel better after hearing your words I appreciate it Yeah, I didn’t need to be so dispirited for getting defeated by some orcs
Philip seehtened Gitan and Ritrina, too, made a serious face as if they made a resolution
”And Teeno, considering your age, I don’t think it is wise to train your body You too, Serinn, since you were born eak uys start training on using blowpipes with poison darts?”
They were surprised on hearing Haroon’s words, as they were thinking his inspiration was not about them
”Poison darts?”
”Yeah I happened to clear a goblin dungeon a while ago, and I got sooblin’s poison You have to be careful with it as it’s strong, but it’ll be a great weapon if you learn how to use it”
His ain to hear his words
”You’ve cleared a goblin dungeon? When? And I heard it’s very hard to kill a hobgoblin Moreover, I heard that the poison cannot be collected once it’s dead”
”When you were in the Hall of Warriors, Teeno I sioblins were using Well, Start practicing using the blowpipes without actually using the poison, and use the poison when you actually get used to it”
”All right Serinn, let’s go”
”Hoho! I’ a weapon!”
As they knew their weaknesses in coht be able to use
”That settled, we should go train using the y we’ve been using as a party, fight alone and let’s get those skill level ups!”
”Yeah, let’s rock! I can’t always stay behind the stupid orcs!”
Philip stood up, clenching his fists
”Me too! Who ath?”
”Hohoho, I’ll train so hard that I can sprayswiftly!”
Gitan and Ritrina were fully recovered as well
Full of spirit, Haroon and the three went down to the bush forest Left behind, Hall quietly watched the into the forest
'The h he is just a mercenary, he actually cares about his members He is simply different from those wild, impolite mercenaries'
Hall quietly stood up and moved to the place she had in mind
She thought, she can’t just sit there and do nothing She was planning to h she was desperate to knohat happened to the secret training camp, she clearly knew that preparation was needed as well
The Gusts of Wind’s sudden passion for training turned out to be really bad news to the monsters that lived between the rocky mountain and the river Seine It was all because of Haroon and his es in the way they train
They had been training to fight s frohts Since there were tons ofout of training targets Haroon was busy though, as he had to lure thepossible
”Die!”
A goblin warrior got launched away by getting hit fro dozens of fights everyday, Gitan’s shi+eld Attack and shi+eld Crossing was getting more accurate and i as well Fro experience
In another fighting scene, there was an orc swinging its club, only to barely touch Philip’s armor Even before it could retrace its trajectory, Philip’s sas already piercing its neck like an arrow He spun his wrist and pulled his sword as fast as he stabbed, and the orc collapsed on the ground, with blood spurting out from the newly made hole
'I knew I could do this!'
At Haroon’s advice, Philip started to trust his quick feet and agile e the eneh room to track the enemy’s attack to its end with his eyes, and calculate its trajectory to plan his next , Philip learned to track every reat detail Naturally, his skills were getting better and better It was because his favorite for – required him to move in the most optimized way
Hot blood covered his face, but Philip didn’t avoid it anyet He loved to be clean and used to hate being covered in blood, and that hy he trained his sword skillas it allowed hieon, he learned that being clean or dirty does not matter at all when his life is on the line
”Kyo-kyo-kyo-kyo!”
Meanwhile, Ritrina got surrounded by three orcs with ridiculously big clubs She laughed very oddly, then her eyes rolled back
Hertheir weapons angrily at her, and she dashed into them
She got immersed in the combat In other words, she went crazy
The Swift technique she learned in the Hall of Warriors was all about finding openings and attacking theileat her head, shoulder and sides but they couldn’t connect because of her light, agile ainst the flow of the river, she dodged the drastic twists
Her attacks were light and short, but the sheer number of them made the orc’s bodies like a fountain, as if a rainshoetted the ground Moreover, her crazy expressions and hters irritated the orcs to make hasty and incomplete attacks
When she was done fighting, she had to hear unwelco words from Serinn
”You crazy bitch! What’s the point of hunting the le the skins?”
But Ritrina never intend to lose on words, she thought she’d found the perfect skill as if she found the perfect clothes for her body
”Haa, I have killed the me about that bullshi+t when even the boss is notit?”
”Because, what you kill, doesn’tall of us, right?”
”Look who’s talking bullshi+t Is that why you were chosen to skin the corpses?”
”What? Say that again and I’ll tear a piece out of you!”
There were always battles of words froirls when coht Teeno explained that’s one of the omen build relationshi+ps, only to buy doubts from male members
In the beginning of the training, Ritrina couldn’t get herself back to normal fro way over a hundred monsters
As Haroon could see histheir confidence, a conflict arose in his eon where level up chances and ite for hi of Hall anymore
Haroon couldn’t decide by himself, so he talked about it with Teeno
”If you have so you, it is better to deal with it first”
”I suppose you’re right”
The mercenaries should always prioritize the request they received He knew the answer already, and he knew that it was his greed that made him hesitate
'Since everyone seeained their confidence, it’d be better to continue the quest We’ll co Camp'
Haroon finally decided to finish the quest he has been delaying
Meanwhile, the Quad wankers were looking forward to fighting with the Luain, as they had no idea about Haroon’s plan
”For this time, I’ll let them knohat real pain is!”
Philip’s deteroing pale, It see able to defeat a raid leader
”I’ll let theuy”
Gitan, as now jokingly saying his shi+eld was part of his body so he needed it with him even when he went to the toilet, was full of confidence as well The others could see a fighting spirit that they never iined they could find in him
”Hehehe Await s toward you Kyo-kyo-kyo”
On Ritrina’s words that just sounded crazy even when she wasn’t in combat, Serinn rebuked her
”You crazy bitch! See what you'll get if you ruin the wenny orcs’ leather Don’t you kno valuable they are? You can pay your debt to Boss just by selling those!”
Listening to the Quad wanker’s casual chatter, Haroon and Teeno smiled and looked at each other
”How’s the training going, Teeno?”
”It is still a long way to go, but training sword skills allowed me to deal with two monsters at the same time without any problem”
After practicing blowpipes for several hours in the , Teeno went to a quiet place to practice swords ethat Teeno tends to underestimate his own ability, Haroon expected him to be able to deal with three or even four orcs at the same time
”By the way, have you seen Hall? I haven’t seen her today at all”
”She’d probably went to Yellowstone over the hill She said it is a good place to practice ic as it is full of pure mana”
At least it was a relief that Hall was close to Teeno He was the only one ordless Hall speaks with
Haroon stood up and scanned the summit of the rocky mountain Yellowstone was the name Serinn called the su how it gloith yellow light during sunrise and sunset Searching with his eyes for Hall ould be ures
”Huh? There are some people over there!”
Teeno stood up as he saw them as well At first he orried about Hall, but then he realized they were co down to where the Gusts of Wind was, not toward Hall
”I see two of theht, thin body and her luxuriant hair It see full ar about them”
Haroon could see the how she earing a white robe and held a staff with a jewel e shi+ny armor, but they had no weapons, so it was hard to predict the class and gender
'What are they doing in such a dangerous place?'
He wondered, but there was no reason to go meet them and ask They would coh they hadn’tti and the quest
”Do you think they need some help, Boss?”
”Ho back to caets late”
”As you say, Boss”
The Quad wankers had already gone to the river to wash their sweat off Seeing how they could only see Gitan and Philip, it seeone to a small pool upriver Woroup who eats, trains and sleeps together
The sun was already going over the mountains when they ca off their tiredness in the river Hall was already waiting for the in one corner, wordlessly as always
”We have enough ghosts, Hall You’re not a scary ghost since you are pretty, though”
She did not reply to Serinn’s joke At least she answered with a sh
”Well then, let’s get the meal ready!”
Serinn added, holding Ritrina’s sleeve Since the place was full of deer and other animals, as well as wild plants, they had no worries about running out of food supplies Serinn’s cooking skill had improved a lot, thanks to Teeno’s help, so the others were enjoying her food recently
While eating the meal, Haroon announced what he talked about with Teeno
