Chapter 35-Yuki's teaching of cowardice and courage

 

 

(TL:By Rafael)

 

"......, so 'Clover' has been nominated for a court-appointed request mission."(Yuki)

 

"Court-appointed request mission ......!"(Silk)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 Silk gulped when she saw the request form on the table.

 

 

 

 That's right, of course. Normally, a court-appointed request mission is something that top rankers such as A-rank parties would accept.

 

 

 It's not the kind of work that usually comes to a C rank party.

 

 

 

"I know we're talking about research, not raid, but it's still ...... a dungeon attack."(Yuki)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 I cut off my words and started to speak.

 

 

 

 It's a little regrettable for me to say this.

 

 

 

"I thought about ...... it, but I think I'm going to have to decline."(Yuki)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 On the way back here, I was thinking about this case.

 

 

 

 It's a court-appointed mission, so the reward is perfect. I'm sure they'll give us a lot of Adventurer Credibility Points.

 

 

 

 I could even challenge the colorless darkness that I've been longing for.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 But .......

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 The risk is too high.

 

 

 

 I don't know if the current us can take on this challenge or not.

 

 

 

 I can't imagine it.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 In the first place, "Colorless Darkness" is a dungeon that is said to be crazy from the start.

 

 

 

 It's easy to see that by reading the logs, and now we have proof of that through the distribution.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 In particular, the labyrinth environment, which changes rapidly, is as abnormal as the report says.

 

 

 

 To be honest, I thought the logs on ...... were just spit in the face, as if we were going through an abandoned castle, we suddenly came across a forest area, or if we went down the stairs and came up again, the floor itself had changed its appearance.

 

 

 

 However, if you look at the delivery of the A-ranked party "Mont Blanc" which was defeated  , it is obvious that this is a fact.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 I can't take these girls into that danger, I concluded.

 

 

 

"What, you're just gonna say no?Why?"(Marina)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 Marina looked at me with a curious expression.

 

 

 

"It's lack of preparation and experience. There are too many things missing for us to challenge the Colorless Darkness there."(Yuki)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 Silk shook her head at my words.

 

 

 

"Sir, experience or not, we should be able to prepare. Fortunately, our equipment is up-to-date, and we should be able to find everything we need for our adventure in Finis."(Yuki)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 Silk laughed lightly and let out a small sigh.

 

 

 

"It's not your fault if you're overprotective of us, sir."(

 

"I'm a Sensei, you know."(Yuki)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 Silk looked me firmly in the eye and opened her mouth.

 

 

 

"So, Mr Yuki. We'll take this court-appointed mission ......."(Silk)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 She picks up the request form on the table and smiles, but it's kind of scary.

 

 

 

 Could it be that she's angry?

 

 

 

"Listen, Mr. Yuki. This is an opportunity for us. One day, we will have to break through this dungeon to get to the Abyss Gate, so we should think of this as an opportunity to get a good preview.(Silk)

 

"That's right! Otherwise, what Yuki calls 'experience' will always remain in short supply!"(Marina)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 I didn't expect that Silk, or even Marina, would argue with me.

 

 

 

 I can understand and agree with what they are saying.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 But .......

 

 

 

"You're scared, Yuki."(Rain)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 Rain, who had been silently listening to what was going on, spun out a few words.

 

 

 

 The words sunk into my heart as if they were being sucked in, bringing up feelings I hadn't realized I had.

 

 

 

"I was afraid of ....... Oh, yeah, I'm scared. ......"(Yuki)

 

"Yuk?"(Marina)

 

"Sir?"(Silk)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 Marina and Silk look at me.

 

 

 

 I'm afraid I've ...... accidentally said out mu inner thoughts.

 

 

 

"You're afraid we're going to lose?"(Rain)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 I can't help but respond to Rain's admonishing voice.

 

 

 

"Yes, I'm afraid. I can't help it, I hate it and I'm ...... scared. I've never felt anything like this before."(Yuki)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 I hadn't felt this way when I was in Thunderpike.

 

(TL: No surprise in that)

 

"Yeah. We're with you."(Rain)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 Rain got out of her chair and cradled my head.

 

 

 

 My vision was obscured and the warmth and softness filled me.

 

 

 

"Hey, Yuk. Let's do it."(Marina)

 

"But........."(Yuki)

 

"We're not that trustworthy, are we ......?"(Silk)

 

"That's not true. I think we're the best of friends."(Yuki)

 

"Well, let's ...... move on to the dream."(Rain)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 At that moment, my vision brightened.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 On the other side of the desk, Marina was smiling with satisfaction and giving a thumbs up, and Silk was smiling with her hands loosely clasped together - and Rain was right beside her with a soft smile.

 

 

 

"Come on, Yuk. Let's get ready for adventure!Tell me what you need!"(Marina)

 

"We'll also make a plan of attack based on what we've delivered so far. We'll also need to request access to the logs."(Silk)

 

"You know what? We'll take care of it."(Rain)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 The three of them look at me.

 

 

 

 Oh, ......, I'm so sorry.

 

 

 

 I'm really no match for them. That's a good reminder.

 

 

 

"I get it. I was wrong."(Yuki)

 

"That's right! It's the place we all want to go the most, and there's no way we can resist it if we get the chance. You're making a big mistake trying to scare us into agreeing with you!"(Rain)

 

"Gosh, ......"(Silk)

 

"You know, even Yuk wanted to go there a little bit, so he brought the request back."(Marina)

 

"Marina. Don't poke at it. I didn't say anything."(Yuki)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 I'm a little ...... shocked that she could see through me that well.

 

 

 

"Come on, Marina. Don't blame Sensei. After much deliberation, he prioritized our safety. This is our own selfishness, and we have to be firm so that Sensei doesn't worry about us."(Silk)

 

"Yes. That's right. So, Yuk, don't worry about it!"(Marina)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 When you laugh at me like that, I feel like an idiot for walking home while worrying.

 

 

 

 But there's a part of me that feels comfortable with this conclusion.

 

 

 

 I strongly realized that I wanted to go to "Colorless Darkness" with everyone.

 

 

 

"Let's go to ......! To Colorless Darkness."(Yuki)

 

 

(TL: If only the name was a little cooler,smh)

 

 

 

 

 Everyone nodded vigorously at my words.
