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

Although Jean-san told me beforehand that criminals could be made into Royal Guards, Kool, and the others all have cards that prove they are citizens. Apparently, they were given these when they were imprisoned, so there is no problem with assigning them to the Royal Guard.

To be honest, the abilities of 《Strange Freak (Nageki no Akuryo)》 are not trustworthy at all, except for Kryhi, but they are interesting, not evil and people I know, so they meet the requirements to become Royal Guards. Besides, even if I say that I cannot trust their abilities, if what that staff member said was true, their evaluation would be at least 25. That is more than five times my evaluation. I am sure they will perform at least five times better than me.

Using the spider, I guide my new companions to Alisha-ojou’s――Ohii-sama’s building.

They all seem nervous in the vehicle, as it is their first time seeing the townscape of Code. Don’t worry, you will get used to it quickly. The city may be amazing, but the people who live there are just normal people……

As I look at 《Strange Freak (Nageki no Akuryo)》 who are staring in wonder, the Spider soon arrives in front of the building. I get off the Spider and go inside the building. I wanted Jean-san and Olivia-san to check on the new members of the Royal Guard, but it seems like they are both out.

I don’t know what kind of work the two of them do on a normal basis, but they are being too careless………… No, actually, Ohii-sama’s room can’t even be opened by herself.

Well, I am the one in charge of selecting the Royal Guards. I might as well register them. I look back at Kool and the others and say.

“I will ask Alisha-ojou to register you as members of the Royal Guards.” (Cry)

“!? A Princess, you say……!?” (Kool)

“Wahwah………… It’s the first time I meet oneeee” (Rusha)

Rusha, who seems to have somehow managed to recover somewhat, speaks in a sweet voice.

“What, guys, don’t tell me you are new to princesses………… How lucky. For me, I have met three of them in the last six months.” (Cry)

“…… I don’t think that has anything to do with being Level 8, Danna.” (Kutry)

Zebrudia-ojou, Yggdra-ojou, and the Cursed-ojou. Well, that is a mix of Princesses, but I met way too many of them. By the way, I met the Emperor, but I don’t remember meeting Princes that much. Especially in the last six months, it has been a while. Most likely because Princes are more guarded than Princesses…… But with this request, my count will increase by four.

Oi, oi, my Royalty Collection is growing (No idea what this means).

“You know, this city runs on a strange system. I don’t understand everything about it, but it is amazing how just entering and exiting a room will instantly take you to the desired floor. I will make sure to get a good grasp of it later. I am planning on trying out various things myself, but if you notice anything, please let me know.” (Cry)

“………… There’s no way a Level 3 like me could notice something that a Level 8 wouldn’t notice……” (Zuri)

Quietly interjects Zuri. But there is no way it will be like this. Now that I haven’t been able to join up with the Kaiser and Saya, and I don’t have 《Strange Grief (Nageki no Borei)》 that usually helps me, it is no exaggeration to say that 《Strange Freak (Nageki no Akuryo)》 is my trump card.

Usually, they may rely on Kryhi, but they won’t be able to do that this time.

“I am not like Kryhi. I will have you work even harder than usual. Well, I am sure you guys are always indebted to Kryhi, so it would be nice to help him out every once in a while.” (Cry)

“D-Do you think we can do it?” (Kool)

Says Kool while trying to check with me with a pale expression. That is up to you guys. Well, let’s give them a little encouragement.

“If you can’t, you will just die.” (Cry)

“Hh…………” (Kool)

Kool *gokuri* swallows hard at what I said.

…… Well, even if they can’t save him, if Kaiser and Saya rescue all the Royal Family, they might be able to rescue Kryhi too, but I will keep quiet about that. I should at least be prepared to back up Kaiser and Saya.

Leading the *kyorokyoro* restless newbies in front of Ohii-sama’s room, I *pachin* snap my fingers to create a window.

Ohii-sama immediately comes and stands in front of the window. It seems like she has too much free time on her hands. The reason she is always in a good mood may be because communicating with someone is one of the few forms of entertainment for her.

When I wave my hand, Ohii-sama *niconico* smiles and waves back. I am sure nothing would change even if this Ohii-sama equipped the 『Perfect Vacation』 ……

The purity and somehow noble feeling conveyed in that gesture makes Rusha’s cheeks twitch as she speaks.

“I…… I looost.” (Rusha)

“There’s no way you could win against her! She’s a real princess, you know!?” (Zuri)

“H-hey, don’t talk nonsense! This is an audience, remember?” (Kool)

You guys are really colorful.

Zuri quickly interjects and Kool hurriedly tries to get everyone together. Kutry watches with a defiant look on her face and while I don’t know what she is thinking, Elise stares intently at Ohii-sama.

I take a step forward and point to the new Royal Guard candidates and say.

“I would like them to become Royal Guards. Is that okay?” (Cry)

Ohii-sama watches the movement of my mouth intently, then *kokukoku* nods vigorously and immediately *kurukuru* twirls her fingers in the same motion she had done to me before.

Apparently, even if it is not with Jean-san, she can still appoint Royal Guards. I will share some snacks with her later. If I can, that is.

Now, I have added 5 more Royal Guards………… So there are 22 left, huh. That’s a lot.

I frown, take a quick look at Kool and the other, and try to use my head for the first time in a while

……………… Let’s buy some time, shall we?

I learned that if I don’t think about our own safety, I can quickly gather people from the prison, and Kool and the others may come up with a great idea to help Kryhi. There is also a chance that Kaiser and Saya will be on track to accomplish the request.

Neither Olivia-san nor Jean-san had said when I needed to get all the Royal Guards. It is possible that they could find someone more suitable to be Royal Guards, and there should be no problem if I wait until I hear about the deadline to act.

The eyes of Ohii-sama are shining as if she is happy to see the place becoming more lively.

Right, right, they are not bandits like Biker and his group. They seem weaker than Biker and his group tho’.

Ohii-sama has both her palms pressed against the window, desperately peering in our direction. I kind of put my hands on the window, look at everyone, and say.

“There are plenty of empty rooms in the building, so feel free to use them as you see fit. I will introduce you to Alisha-ojou’s attendant when they return later…… I will basically be staying here, so come here if you need anything. Now then, let’s disband.” (Cry)

Now that I have done some work, let’s take a little break.

Thanks for reading! Haha Cry is so direct, if Kool and co fail they will JUST die. Cry said this as if dying is the easy way out. And is Cry going to do the random number adjustment again!? What will happen this time!?
