"Elena smiled and gave Sara a short answer."
(“No, thank you.”)
"Ts: This code is the sign → (“..... ”) to show the conversation bubble."
(“It was too bad. ”)
"Sara then made an exaggerated move to show her disappointment."
"Just after, a boy ran over and stopped in front of Elena and Sara before giving them a wide smile. He looks very excited. Looks like he's the one Elena and Sara's been waiting for."
(“Elena-san !! Sara-san !! I'll be in your care today. ”)
"That boy is Katsuya. Airi and Yumina followed behind him."
"Yumina looked annoyed as she smiled bitterly and said to Katsuya."
(“Katsuya, don't just keep going like that .. You're too excited. ”)
"Yumina said the last part with a small voice that no one could hear as it mixed with a hint of jealousy and annoyance. But he immediately returned to his usual self and politely bowed to Elena and Sara."
(“Elena-san, Sara-san, I will take care of you today. ”)
"As for Airi, her expression did not change much as she said."
(“I will also be in your care. ”)
"Katsuya idolizes Elena and Sara. Although there were many other mixed feelings, it was still a form of his admiration for the other Hunters he recognized were above him. Of course, there were many Hunters in Drankam who were far above him, but since most of them had always looked down on young Hunters like him, so he didn't really like them. In contrast to them, even after doing some work together with Elena and Sara, there were not even instances where they looked at her or mocked her or insulted her or showed that they hated young hunters like her. There were even times when they considered his inferior skills, but that was foreseen. In fact, he was really happy when Elena and Sara were watching him."
"Because of her past experiences, Katsuya is thrilled when she finds out that she's going to do a Hunter request along with a strong, gentle, awesome, and on top of that, beautiful Elena and Sara."
"For Airi and Yumina, as fellow female Hunters, Elena and Sara were their idols that they coveted. That's why they understand that it can't help when Katsuya gets excited and therefore they hold back."
"Shikarabe followed behind Katsuya and the girls. He glanced at Katsuya who was showing this contempt for being so excited but then he immediately returned to his usual expression and turned to Elena and Sara."
(“Are we late?”)
(“No, it's okay. ”)
(“I saw . Well, I'll hand it to you. Just check from time to time ”)
"Drankam makes a special request to Elena and Sara to take the request along with Katsuya and his friends. Although that includes a lot of details, the point is, they want Elena and Sara to take care of, train and protect Katsuya, Airi and Yumina. So in short, Drankam wants them to keep an eye on the young Hunters. Elena and Sara understood this when they accepted the request."
"All young Hunters belonging to Drankam are set to work under other veteran Hunters until they accumulate enough experience, abilities and achievements. This is necessary to improve the survival abilities of young Hunters who are not well versed in this line of work where their chances of survival are already low. It was also a method to attract more Hunters to their gang."
"Katsuya is considered quite talented, so he is assigned to work under Shikarabe who is considered a skilled Hunter in the gang. It's also because of Shikarabe who discovered the hidden talent in Katsuya."
"However, Shikarabe doesn't like Katsuya, so he's quite upset when he has to look after Katsuya. This was also one of the reasons why Shikarabe made an individual request to Elena and Sara to check on Katsuya and his friends."
"Seeing Shikarabe looked relieved that he didn't need to keep an eye on Katsuya and his friends for some time, Elena felt regret when she said to him."
(“But about the request, I'm really sorry to say this so suddenly, but can you cancel it?”)
"Katsuya was surprised because he couldn't wait to make this request."
(“Eeeh ?! Wh-what's wrong? ”)
"Shikarabe was also startled, he then asked Elena the reason while looking a little unhappy."
(“How is it? You asked me to cancel the request right before it started, you know. Hope you have a good explanation for this. ”)
(“Of course, a job request was sent to us from Hunter's Office. I'm really sorry but we'll prioritize that request. ”)
"After hearing Elena's explanation, Katsuya was furious and displeased. But that didn't happen to Shikarabe. As the Hunter from Drankam, he only showed a hint of displeasure to Elena who tried to reject her request, he then continued to suppress her with a hint of intimidation."
(“So, you canceled a request from Drankam just because of that, huh? Do you really think that we'll allow you to do that? There will be consequences, you know?”)
"But Shikarabe's behavior instantly changed with Elena's answer."
(“Even if the request came from Corporate?”)
(“.... Company Government? !!”)
"Shikarabe was surprised, this reason was enough to completely erase his displeasure towards Elena and Sara."
"Corporate Government is a large association of many large corporations that govern the eastern district. The Hunter Association that manages the various Hunter Offices is none other than one of the partners of Corporate. So for the Hunters, any request made on behalf of the Corporate Government is essential. If they refused the request for no reasonable reason, in the worst-case scenario, it might even turn the entire eastern district into their enemy."
(“The request was to patrol around a dangerous area near the city of Kugamayama, but the request was made under the Corporate Government. Although, to be honest, this kind of work had to be done by the city. I don't know the reason but since the request was officially sent from the Hunter Office, I don't think there was any mistake. I'm sorry, but I can't seem to turn down this request just because I plan to browse with some of my acquaintances. As for the cancellation fee, the Hunter Office will directly transfer it to Drankam. You're okay with this, right? ”)
"Elena then smiled as if she was challenging Shikarabe after giving that explanation."
(“Or maybe Drankam wants to take responsibility and negotiate with the Government of the Company? Of course, I'll rethink about your request if you can do that. ”)
"Shikarabe smiled bitterly and shook his head."
(“Don't be stupid, I get it. I'll tell the people at Drankam .. But still, a request from the Corporate Government, huh? What the hell is going on?”)
(“Your guess is as good as mine. So there you have it, I have a lot to prepare for. Sorry, we're leaving. Tell Drankam that I did meet with you in person to cancel the request. ”)
"When the Hunter Office sends a request from the Corporate Government, they usually only send that request to first-rate Hunters who usually work near the Front Line. Although Elena and Sara were recognized as quite powerful Hunters in Kugamayama city, they were not that strong for the Corporate Government to notice them. Shikarabe, Sara and Elena knew this fact well, that's why they had so many questions regarding this request."
"Sara turned to Katsuya and the other children."
(“Yeah, so there you have it. Sorry for today, see you next time. ”)
(“…. Ah, okay. It is unfortunate but it cannot help. ”)
"Although Katsuya was still not completely convinced, he had no choice but to accept it. At the same time, his gaze was sucked into Sara's cleavage, but he immediately threw his face away. Sara just smiled at that."
"Soon, Elena and Sara left the place. Shikarabe then used his information terminal to contact Drankam and discuss this matter."
"Katsuya sighed."
(“Request from Corporate Government, yes …? It was incredible, but it was a pity that Sara-san and Elena-san had to cancel today's request because of that. ”)
"Ts: This code is the sign → (“..... ”) to show the conversation bubble."
"As for Yumina and Airi, the two of them also felt that it was indeed too bad. But after seeing how Katsuya reacted, they felt a little conflicted and it was visible on their faces."
"To change the mood, Yumina made an awkward smile and said."
(“I don't think there will be a next time, after all, you're staring at Sara-san's chest right now. She probably hates you for it, you know. ”)
"Katsuya coughed and panicked."
(“Am I staring too hard?”)
"Airi made a brief comment confirming what Yumina said."
(“You did it. ”)
(“... Well, it's just that I was hooked. How else, you know. Any man would agree with me after seeing that. So I'm sure Sara-san will understand .. ”)
"Yumina seemed comforted as she continued to tease Katsuya."
(“I think Sara-san won't understand because she's a girl. ”)
"Airi also followed Yumina but with a flat expression."
(“ Curiosity kills the cat, it might be better if you give up. ”)
"Unlike Yumina who was clearly teasing Katsuya, Airi simply stated the facts, hearing her, Katsuya was even more panicked."
(“I-not that. It's just that Sara-san is wearing a pendant even though she doesn't usually wear it, and the pendant is made of unusual bullets. The top of the locket was sucked into his chest, so I couldn't help but be curious when I noticed that, you know. ”)
"Yumina and Airi sighed at the same time."
(“Now after you mentioned it, it's not unusual for Sara-san to wear such a pendant. But it seems rude, I wonder if anyone gave it as a gift? ”)
(“I don't think Sara-san or Elena-san would buy something like that by themselves, so it might as well be a gift from someone. ”)
(“That might be a gift from her boyfriend. ”)
"Katsuya was a little surprised."
(“B-boyfriend .. B-but I heard that Sara-san and Elena-san only work in teams of two people. So it's hard to believe if she has a boyfriend ..”)
(“The boyfriend doesn't have to be another hunter, you know. Moreover, it's not too hard to believe. ”)
(“Even maybe another Hunter who couldn't join him in the Hunter request because it would interfere with his relationship with the other Hunters. If that was the case, then it wouldn't be strange at all. Or they may have already begun negotiations for a transfer. ”)
"Yumina and Airi have fun teasing Katsuya who has a crush on Sara. So Katsuya's torture continues."
"Shikarabe ended his call with a bad mood. He was upset because the negotiations did not end well. He put away his displeasure and turned to Katsuya and the other children to inform the outcome of the negotiation."
(“You can go back home if you want, but if you want to take more work, you have to take on patrol work like you brought in this morning, he said, so what do you want to do ? Today's job with Elena was canceled, so I think it's okay if you guys just go home today. ”)
"Personally, Shikarabe wanted them to go home alone today, but as someone who took care of them, he couldn't say that directly. Therefore, he could only send a gaze that said that he hoped they would disperse."
('. Just got home. You should be able to understand that I cannot order you to disperse. You should also get a hint that something bad might be happening right now from a previous conversation with Elena. I know that you also don't want to go to patrol work. Your next chance to go with Elena will come again sooner or later. No need to work hard under me, so just go home.')
"Ts: this code is the sign → (‘......’) to indicate a thought or word bubble that appears in someone's mind."
"Shikarabe's silent prayers did not reach them when Katsuya turned to Yumina and Airi and asked them."
(“What to do now? I did prepare my things to find a job and not to mention I wanted to raise my Hunter Rank as quickly as possible as well. After all, with our current Hunter Rank, we were unable to accept any other requests on our own and neither could we explore the ruins. ”)
"After all, they still need Shikarabe's permission. Katsuya wanted to get away from this situation as soon as possible. If he did, then there would be fewer people looking down on him."
(“I don't mind if you say so, how about you Airi?”)
(“No problem. ”)
"As for Yumina and Airi, they only follow Katsuya most of the time. Their budding love for Katsuya in their hearts encourages them to do so."
"Shikarabe just looked at them with a cold gaze, showing his strong hatred towards Katsuya."
('... Go with the majority rule again, huh? Don't you know that the two won't be opposed if you make a suggestion? Did you do this on purpose after knowing that fact?')
"Ts: this code is the sign → (‘......’) to indicate a thought or word bubble that appears in someone's mind."
"Initially, there were 5 children under Shikarabe. Whenever they want to decide something, they will always go with the majority rule and Katsuya always wins, that's why the other two make requests to be moved to the other team. So Shikarabe was left with Katsuya and these two girls."
"Seeing how Katsuya imposes his opinion using this majority rule, Shikarabe's hatred towards Katsuya increases."
"Katsuya then turned to Shikarabe to tell him their decision."
(“We will take another patrol request. ”)
"Ts: This code is the sign → (“..... ”) to show the conversation bubble."
(“...Good.”)
"Shikarabe then turned to Katsuya and took his information terminal to contact Drankam and take care of the registration for patrol work. As he operated his information terminal, he sighed in annoyance."
(“Damn it, if only I didn't need to check on these boys, I would have been able to investigate the request from the Corporate Government by now. I know that we have to invest in training young Hunters, but it is we who work hard to pay for their equipment and sacrifice our time doing cheap work with them for the sake of their training. I really hope the people in management will pay more attention to this. ”)
"Shikarabe understood that it was Drankam's policy and not Katsuya's fault, but he does not understand that hatred is created between those who must sacrifice and those who benefit from the sacrifice of others is normal."
" *** "
"Elena and Sara arrived home and were preparing for the request in their vehicle. They check their ammunition reserves, the condition of the vehicle, large information-gathering devices and machine guns mounted on their vehicles. They also put up more armor just to be safe and fill the energy tank. It's pretty excessive preparation for a simple patrol in the desert."
"Usually, Elena would do the gathering and driving information, while Sara peeked out of the vehicle and shot at the monsters. So they prepare themselves in the area that they are responsible for."
(“Say, Elena, about this request, what do you think?”)
(“I did a little investigation, but I couldn't get anything valuable. But it seemed like the same request was also sent to another Hunter near the ruins. Since Hunters like us received this request, sent directly to us from the Corporate Government, I think it is fully expected that there are other Hunters who got the same request as well. Maybe they tried to call all the Hunters back to the city. ”)
"Sara looked confused."
(“Don't that mean there will be another large-scale monster attack? Hmmm, but then again, it's strange that the Corporate Government will send a request just because of that, huh? If that was really the case, then the city's Defense Forces should be enough to deal with them. Not to mention that it would be the perfect opportunity to show their value to people who keep saying that the Defense Forces are spending too much money. So I don't think they'll go out of their way to call the Hunters back to the city just to seize the role of the Defense Forces. ”)
"Elena seemed conflicted as she agreed with Sara."
(“It's true . Therefore, I cannot understand the reason behind this request. It would be great if it was just a form of insurance, but that might not be the case. Let's prepare everything so that we can stay safe even if something unexpected happens. ”)
"Elena said the last part in a firm voice as if she wanted to calm herself down, but then she continued in a soft tone."
(“But yeah, I'm sure it'll be fine. Anyway, we've been fine lately. Thanks to that, we got quite a lot of money and we were able to upgrade our equipment. It's as if our time when we were in a slump wasn't there in the first place. Even though I said it as if it was nothing, we were really facing hard times. ”)
"Sara replied in a small voice."
(“Indeed really bad .. And what got us up from that situation was Akira saving us. Not only did he save our lives, he even reversed our situation .. I can't thank him enough for everything he did for us. ”)
"Elena agreed with him as she smiled and nodded."
(“Talking about Akira, I met him today by chance. I can finally say thank you to him and I feel much better now. But don't worry, just like you, I also promised him not to ask for anything unnecessary or tell others about him. ”)
(“You met Akira? Although I thought that I would meet her at Shizuka's store sooner or later, I haven't seen her at all lately. Where did you meet him?”)
(“It was at the gathering place where we met Katsuya. It seems that Akira also received a patrol request. She told me that she locked herself inside her room after placing her order for an extra suit at Shizuka's shop. It made sense, after all, it would be a pity if he went to the desert before getting his plus and injured suit. ”)
(“So Akira started getting better Hunter equipment for himself, yes. We have to work hard too. ”)
(“Yes, let's give you the best out there. ”)
"Elena and Sara giggled as they continued their preparations. Although they could not understand the reason behind this request from the Corporate Government, they were confident that they would be able to do well."
