58 Episode 23: Welcome Party for Drintre 2




"Fire Bullet.


 In front of Cain's outstretched hand, five pale, flaming, violently spinning fire bullets were floating in front of him.

''Tch. You're a wizard. Everyone scatter.''

 The adventurers who had surrounded them scattered to pieces.

'I'm going. Try not to get hit! Yo.

 A bullet of fire that flared up blue-white and flew in the direction of the adventurers. The adventurers had all ducked the magic by flying slowly on purpose.

 And three of the avoided fire bullets went straight to the wall on the bleacher side. Two were at their feet.

Dogaaaaaan! Doggone it! DDDOGAAHH!
Bogooooooooooooooooo! Boom!

 It hit the wall in three places and blew up the entire auditorium as it was.
 Where the outer wall had been, there was a pile of rubble, and the cityscape was visible as it was.
 Where it fell at his feet, there was a crater about three meters long.
 The city did not seem to be affected by the reduced power.


「「「「「「......」」」」」」


 The adventurers who had ducked and the adventurers in the bleachers stared at the pile of broken rubble where the wall that separated the training grounds from the bleachers had been.
 Then they realized in an instant what would happen if they were to be hit.

'You all dodged it properly, didn't you? If we get hit, we'll be like that wall! Then I'll go next.

 Cain said, and made the same fire bullets appear in ten more rounds.
 At that moment, the onlooker adventurers in the audience ran away in unison.

''What the hell was that! If that thing comes at us, we can't do anything about it!
"There's no way I'm taking a bet! Get out of here!

 Throwing the mug of liquor they were holding, the adventurers in the bleachers fled one by one.
 The adventurers who were about to engage in a mock battle (lynch) were pale, but they couldn't escape because Cain was standing in front of the doorway.

'What is this ......?'

 Betty dropped the cigarette in her mouth as it was and muttered a single word to the stunned Betty, who was stunned.
 All five adventurers, who were shaken by the tragedy, fell to their knees on the spot.

I'm 「「「「「 sorry. We lost. 」」」」」

 Cain saw this and added more fireballs. When the number of those floating fireballs reached twenty, the five of them were incontinent and wobbling and trembling.

'Nope. It's not over until the judges stop them.''

 Cain then spoke to him smiling.

'The air in here is bad, so we'll have to switch things up a bit.

 Ten of the floating fire bullets flew towards the spectator side wall.

DODGAHH! Dogaaaahhhhhhhh! DDDOGAAHH!

 Furthermore, the training grounds were breaking down. The bleachers were already in a pristine state.
 The remaining fireballs, which were no longer needed, diffused and extinguished the magic power.

''Please ...... no more ...... stop .......''

 Betty, too, could only sit there and cry in a puddle on the ground.

 Just then, a large man with a skinny head over two meters tall entered from the entrance of the training ground with great vigor.

''What's going on! What the hell is this?

 What the big skinheaded man saw was that the training ground was cratered and unable to function properly. Eighty percent of the area where the bleachers used to be was just a pile of debris flying around.
 There was an adventurer on his knees incontinently in the middle of the training ground and even Bedi, the sub-guild master (・・・・・・・・), was sitting on his knees shitting himself.

 And Cain was the only one standing on the training ground.

''You! What did you do to him? But first, who are you?

'It's a shame that you call me you. Who are you? I'm just a ten-year-old adventurer. And the adventurers sitting there are the ones who have challenged me to a mock lynch,

 Cain spoke to the big man without backing down at all.

'I'm Rixetu here at Gilmour's,' he said, 'and you know what you've done? You know what you've done, don't you?

 Lixetu was breathless at the destruction of the facilities within the guild that was his territory.

'I'm coming to this city soon and I only came to the guild to say hello, but a few of us ended up getting together and trying to lynch each other in the name of a mock battle. Even the guild staff there got together. That's why I was just there to help out. What are you the one doing as a guildmaster?

Shut up! Do you have any idea what happens when you do this? It's Iron, anyway. The adventurers of this city are going to come after you with a single voice from me.

"You want to kill me? Can you say that as a gildmouth: ......

 With that one word, Cain unleashes the killing air in all directions.
 The adventurers who are on their knees and Betty, the guild staff member, whose faces were completely blue due to the killing qi also turned white and fainted as it was.
 And Gilmouth's Rixetu, who had been subjected to a killing atmosphere of a different dimension from the norm, was also kneeling down and trembling.
 As expected of a former S-ranked adventurer, he did not faint.

''Oma...... Ah, who the hell are you, sir......?''

Well, I'll be back. Maybe we'll find out then. The guild will have the money for the repairs here, the staff there just now said that the guild will have the money for the repairs, so I'm counting on you.

 Cain retracted his killing intent and walked past a trembling Gilmouth.

'Hey, what the ...... what the hell is that bastard ......?

 Lixetu could only mutter that.

 Everyone stared at Cain with awe as they walked through the training grounds and down the hall.
 The adventurers watching from the bleachers were shivering in the corners of the hall.
 The rest of the staff, who hadn't seen anything, were shivering under their desks from the roaring and shaking that had just taken place.
 Cain realized that he'd forgotten to give them the letter, but he knew he couldn't give it to them in his current state, so he left the guild as it was.

'Huh. I think I went a little too far: ......'

 After muttering that, he headed to the lord's house.
