Infinite Gacha - Chapter 29

"--Unghh!　Oh, brother!

...... Good morning, Mya."

"Da, Dirk, sir?　Hey, what's this place ......"

The bedroom of the suite on the top floor of the inn where we are staying.

Miya was lying in one of them.

I was sitting on a chair by the bed, watching over her.

When Mya woke up, she looked around like a frightened little animal, as if to say, "I don't know what's going on.

When she calmed down enough, I told her the story I had prepared in order.

Last night, when Gold was drinking at the Adventurers' Guild, he asked me for information about the 'Adventurer Killer.

When we learned this information, we set out to find the "Adventurer Killer" before the other adventurers in order to name him.

We set out to find the "Adventurer Killer" before the other adventurers in order to name him. We went into the dungeon at night to search for him and happened to find Miya, who was about to be killed by a young elf.

The young man, who had seen us and taken us by surprise, was alarmed and fled into the depths of the dungeon.

After protecting the unconscious Mya, we investigate the area and find her dying brother Erio, and the unfortunate bodies of Gimla and Wardi.

Based on the circumstantial evidence, he concluded that the "young elf-kind" was the "adventurer-killer.

We cast a recovery spell on Elio, but he was seriously wounded, and we immediately returned to the dungeon to ensure the safety of Mya, who had fainted, and to bring back information.

She went to the inn where we were staying. Erio was taken to a hospital in town to be hospitalized.

Gold went to the Adventurers' Guild and was given information about the "Adventurer Killer.

--Of course, it was all horseshit.

It was all a fabricated story to keep Mya and the Adventurers' Guild from becoming suspicious.

The guild notwithstanding, Miya's own memories are hazy, thanks to SR hypnosis, and she has no recollection of her brief stay in the "abyss.

Kite, the "young man of the elf species," has already been in the basement of the "Abyss" and has already been discharging information.

He has strict orders to extract information about "Master" and "Sabumasutaa," even if he has to be a little forceful.

I am sure that Elly and his friends are now reading the memories using forbidden magic, etc., which involves immense pain.

I can cover up my facial expressions with a mask, but I'm careful not to sound suspicious in my voice as I continue talking.

The guild also concluded from circumstantial evidence that the young man was most likely an adventurer-killer. They want to hear more details when Mya wakes up.

I understand. Yes, I am sure that person is the "Adventurer Killer. He suddenly appeared right beside us and when I told him about ...... the "Adventurer Killer," he said, "Next time you should be a little more careful about concealment," and then he attacked us. He took his brothers to ......."

Mya is sitting on her upper body, her small hands tightly gripping the quilt.

I take two handkerchiefs from my pocket and hand them to her.

What are these?

It's the hair of Gimla and Wardy. I'm sorry, I was able to save Elio, but they ...... couldn't take the bodies home with them.

!　Oh, thank you!　I'm just glad it's just a hair!　Thank you, thank you--uuuuuhhhh!"

Finally realizing that the death of her friends was real, Mya clutches her hair to her chest and bursts into tears.

(That time, while confronting the culprit, Kite, I used an infinite gacha card to heal and protect them, but I couldn't save Gimla and Wardy, although Erio made it in time. ......)

Resuscitation magic exists, but it is not universal and has various conditions, and it could not help them. Once human life is lost, it cannot be easily restored, no matter how powerful it may be.

(This is probably the limit of what we can do today. ......)

I make a decision and quietly leave the room without saying anything more.

Even though I close the door, my ears catch Miya's sobs as she cries inside the room due to the high level.

(I did my best to raise my level to get my revenge, but having better ...... hearing is a bit inconvenient at times like this.)

I left her alone and quietly distanced myself from the door until she calmed down.

☆ ☆ ☆ ☆ ☆ ☆ ☆ ☆ ☆ ☆ ☆ ☆ ☆ ☆ ☆

Two things changed after the "Adventurer Killer" incident.

The first was that the ...... Adventurers' Guild appreciated the information we provided about the "Adventurer Killer" and raised our rank by one.

After weeping, Mya went to the Adventurers' Guild that same day to give a detailed explanation.

Our sighting and information about the repulse.

Mya's detailed statement confirmed the guild's belief that the young elf-killer was the Adventurer-Killer.

They even made a portrait of him based on our and Mya's memories, and warned the adventurers to be careful.

A team was even formed to take down the "Adventurer Killer," who had escaped to the back of the dungeon (according to our testimony).

My guess was that we would have to hand over the "Adventurer Killer" in order to move up in rank. It was an unexpected stroke of luck that I would be upgraded to C (skilled adventurer) with just the information I had.

Then, the other thing was - Miya and Erio decided to quit the adventurer business, give up their studies at the Six Principality School of Magic, and return to their hometown.

Erio has been discharged from the hospital, and the two have disposed of the luggage they had left at their regular lodgings.

Early tomorrow morning, they will leave the city for their hometown as an escort for the merchant corps.

They came all the way to greet us, who had saved their lives and taken care of them.

We took Miya and Elio up to the living room of the suite on the top floor of the inn and listened to what they had to say.

Nemmu brewed tea and put it on the table in front of them on the sofa. I sat on the sofa across from them, while Gold and the others stood in the corner of the room and listened.

Mya and Elio bow deeply.

I thank you so much for saving my brother's life and taking care of him for such a short period of time.

'Thank you so much for helping me. ...... It is thanks to Mr. Dirk and his team that lives were saved."

No, we were given advice and burn medicine as well. It just so happened that ...... saved my life."

I can't say that it was the power of "SSR, Prayer Misanga". And I won't say it from our side because I don't want to remind you of that time, but I couldn't save Gimla and Wardy. I was just lucky that I could save Elio.

No matter how high my level is, I can't do everything - this power is not universal.

I shake the subject to change the subject.

If you were as good a magician as the hardworking Erio and Miya, you could have teamed up with other people and continued as an adventurer, couldn't you?

Yes, in fact, some of them have told me about it. But I was afraid to dive in the dungeon anymore after what happened to me. ......"

The hand on my knee trembles.

My friends were killed in front of my eyes, my brother was dying, and I was about to lose my life miserably.

There was no reason to be frightened of going back into the dungeon.

And besides," she says with a troubled laugh, "I'm not sure I'm ready to go back into the dungeon.

'I became an adventurer and dived in the dungeon because we were all together, and I couldn't do it with just the two of us. Hey, big brother."

'Yeah, so it's not quite right to team up with someone else now. Besides, I want to make sure that Gimla and Wardy's hairs are returned to their hometown. And I hope to be able to support myself with the help of my relatives.

I see.

A somber atmosphere filled the room.

To change the mood, Miya tells them in an upbeat, but cheerful tone of voice.

It is difficult to enter a school for magicians in the principality, but I intend to study magic on my own without giving up, working hard together with my brother, so that I can become a magician who will not be laughed at by everyone. If Mr. Dirk and the others are ever in my hometown, please call on me."

Yes, by all means.

Yes, we are waiting for you. Everyone in my hometown will give you a warm welcome.

Absolutely, Mr. Dirk. I'll be waiting for you."

They reply with positive smiles.

Afterwards, Mya and Erio left the inn after a brief conversation with Gold and the others.

We were left alone in the room.

I'm going back to the 'abyss' once. If you have visitors for me, please let me go home.

Awe, master."

Leaving Nemum and Gold in the room, he returns to the "Abyss" once with "SSR, Transition".
