Chapter 115 Exciting Vacation ④

Part 2

“Eh!? Master, you have never been wounded in a battle before?”

“It was because Luke and the others were so strong.”

Tino’s eyes widened and said in surprise.

Because Anthem put up barriers, there were also the Barrier Rings, but well, in the first place there wasn’t a lot of attack that reached me.
Of course, as my Mana Material absorption rate was extremely low, I wasn’t very noticeable on the battlefield. And on top of that, as I had nothing to do on the battlefield, there was no reason to get injured. There was also some time where I just sat in the corner and watched the fight. I am probably the only Hunter with those kinds of experiences in all the world of Treasure Hunter.

“As expected of Master………… I can’t do the same as you.”

For some reason, Tino’s respect for me skyrocket as we talk. I am not someone deserving so much respect, you know.
Feeling a little sorry for that misplaced respect, I decided to do a quick follow up for Liz.

“…… There is nothing to brag about not being injured. Rather, you should train your spirit so you can move calmly even when you are injured. So, you know, it may be a pain to train under Liz, but it is definitely for Tino’s sake. It may be tough, but it wasn’t like Liz did that just to bully you, Tino ――”

“? Yes. I had been under Onee-sama’s care. I am very lucky to have met you and Onee-sama.”

“…… Even Sytry isn’t bad. Her sensibility is just a little bit different ―― Well, you know, Alchemist are all like that, so it wasn’t like she was trying to bully you too, Tino ――”

“……? Yes, Sytry Onee-sama is…… Well, it is a bit embarrassing, just a little bit embarrassing to be touched in front of you, Master, but it isn’t enough to be called bullying ―― It wasn’t like she was always touching me.” 

…… Huh? Maybe there wasn’t any problem at all.
Tino’s reaction was lighter than I had thought. I thought that she was exhausted from being under the pressure of her Onee-sama and Sytry Onee-sama, but the tone of her voice didn’t indicate that she was pushing herself to say that. In the first place, Tino wasn’t someone who tells lies.

In my mind, I nodded, but checked again just to be sure.

“………… You didn’t have any unpleasant experiences? If anything has happened, please tell me, so I can deal with it.”

“Yes, everything is fine. Rather…… Master’s requests are the most heartbreaking ―― No, I mean, I know that Master is thinking about me, but……”

Tino looked down and mumbled an excuse. Did I do something? Did I ever do something worse than having to take a Lightning Inducing Medicine and being struck by lightning in the name of training?
Sure, I had made a few bad calls, but I have never done it out of spite.

No, wait. But then, what was the reason you had been in bad shape all this time?
Past or not, I didn’t demand anything from Tino this time. Now that I look back, I am even more harmless than usual. 


 

Then at that time, Tino’s expression suddenly changed. She stood up vigorously, saw me looking at her and sat down in a hurry.

“I-I’m sorry, Master. Just now ―― The voices outside ―― Well ―― I wasn’t trying to listen, but their voice was so loud, so I naturally listened to it due to Onee-sama’s training ――”

“Was there something wrong?”

Voices outside you said, how good was your ears? Even though I didn’t notice anything and we were behind a window, what the hell can’t you do when you are a being called Hunter.
Tino’s face became red up to her ears and wound up talking really fast when I had no idea what was going on.

“I, couldn’t believe in what Master said. But, it was because of everything that had happened up until now, and even if it was easy for Master, it was life-threatening for me, and Master should have been with me all the time ―― So-sorry. I am extremely ……………… Ashamed of myself.”

Tino shrunk as she clenched her fist tightly in her knees.

I’m sorry that you had embarrassed yourself but I have no idea what you are talking about at all.
All I knew was that Tino didn’t trust what I said at all, but the appearance of Tino who had her face bright red was just like any girl of the same age as her and was very cute because of the gap there is compared to her usual self.

Tino, who was excited, didn’t see the moment when the waitress carried a tray with a gorgeous parfait on it. 



" "

“I have made up my mind. I will never doubt Master’s words ever again!”

Tino raised her head and declared so as if she had found a new resolution.
However, I don’t remember doing anything that would make her earn that much trust in me, and in the first place I am a good-for-nothing, so I will be troubled if you trust too much in me and beside ―― It wasn’t the first time I heard those words.

I am sorry to have betrayed you so many times. Everything was my fault.

“I remember hearing those words several times.”

“This-this time, I really mean it. Master. If Master said that crows are white, then they are white! Master’s will are my will!”

Wasn’t the difference in our tension too drastic? Well, I am glad to see her happy.
When I was about to turn off all the questions I had in my mind and as usual, answer with an all knowingly look “Un, un, you are right”, Tino asked me while fiddling her fingertips.

“So, Master. If I may be presumptuous…… I think I won’t understand even if I asked you, but well…… Is it okay to ask you for future reference? Just now, the Hunters outside were talking about it………… How did you repulse the Orcs out of their fort?”

“…… Un, un, you are right.”

…… What are you talking about
