I Was in Charge of Scouting for the Hero’s Party - Chapter 88



87. Reuniting with her was the worst

“Morning….”

Morning. Hmm. Morning.

I shook her head vigorously. Rather, it seemed more dizzy.

With her curtains drawn, her room was still dark. Through the cracks in the curtains on the windows, the blue morning sunlight peeked shyly.

“Growl…. Pew woo…. Growl…. Ugh….”

“Hmm…. Hmmm….”

The babbling of Robin and Maya, who are sleeping on the bed, was impressive. I drank like that yesterday, so I wonder if I won’t wake up until lunchtime.

The warrior party is… Haven’t come back yet. He stopped by the royal palace and came back, and in the end the whole day passed.

Royman and Isabel, who had fallen asleep in their chairs yesterday, were not in the room as if they had already gone out to do business.

Anyway, religious people.

I got up and sat on the bed for a while, staring blankly into space.

What did I do yesterday?

Let’s talk about the work we were commissioned by Lowell with everyone, and….

“… Ah.”

Yes, indeed. I found a way to be with Princess Alexis.

Princess Alexis said, she will be away from us for a while with the opening of her academy soon. Perhaps even after she graduates from the academy this year, she won’t be able to join us right away.

So what I came up with was….

“Academy.”

If you’re a temporary teacher at the academy, can’t you do something? Was

Without Princess Alexis, the only tank in our party, the adventure would have ended anyway. Rather than just spending money and waiting, how about working at an academy where you can earn money and meet Princess Alexis?

Unfortunately, the party of warriors who have to confront the demon army won’t be able to join.

Everyone welcomed them with open arms, and Princess Alexis, who had been out for a while, doesn’t know about this yet. You will probably be surprised.

Of course, it is not easy to get hired as a teacher at the Royal Academy, which is known for its strictness. Even more so, how foolish are we who have not received any invitation from the academy? They all have decent abilities, so we’ll need some connections to vouch for us.

It would be perfect if it was recommended by the hero, but unfortunately, the hero is not from this world, and he has no relationship with the academy. No matter how much he is a hero, the academy is not easy enough to believe in the hero’s recommendation and blindly accept idiots. Since the president of the academy is already a great wizard, I’ve said everything.

Therefore, we have two things to do.

One is to ask Instructor Pamela, who is in a high position as a Ranger. Instructor Pamela also has a certain amount of time as she has served in the Ranger for a long time, so she even plays a role in selecting Ranger instructors who go on business trips to the academy every year. Robin and I will be able to do anything.

The other is Princess Alexis’s father. That’s why, I’m asking Duke Alexis directly.

Duke Alexis and I have known each other to some extent. In the past, he had been offered to go directly to him by Duke Alexis.

Seeing my abilities, I asked to join Princess Alexis as an escort knight, probably. At that time, I flatly refused.

Of course, Duke Alexis is not someone you can meet right now. It’s not yet time for Princess Alexis to leave, so I’ll be able to visit with Princess Alexis in the near future.

If you go this way, there is an advantage that not only me and Robin, but everyone may be hired as temporary teachers according to their respective aptitudes.

“By the way, I need to meet Wyler too…. Are you still in the capital?”

Wyler, of course, has thoughts of meeting him. I should go and apologize properly, but…. Apparently, when Robin was awake, it seemed good to go with him. So, once dismissed.

“Then….”

First, I need to stop by the Ranger Training Center. After that… Go to the guild, take Galran’s bounty…. Also….

“… That should be enough.”

Once you have a job to do, there’s no time to be like this. I got up right away.

After taking a light bath, changing her clothes and coming out, Sylvia, who woke up from her sleep, was sitting on the bed and dozing off.

“Sylvia?”

“Ummm…. Oh, Austin…. Where… ?”

“I’m thinking of going to the Ranger Training Center. I have some business to do.”

“Wait…. Me too…. Haaam…. Let me go too….”

“Yes. Then wash quickly and come out.”

Sylvia’s gait twisted back and forth. She was so drunk that she managed to get Sylvia into her bathroom, who was doing a grotesquely limp dance.

“Write…. Sooner or later….”

The shin guard made of hardened wyvern hide was more torn than expected. Well, rolling on the rough dirt floor and sliding….

Thinking about it like this, it’s surprising that it hasn’t been torn.

“… I should just buy a new one.”

“Huh? Buy something?”

Has time already passed like this?

Silvia, who was ready to go out, was standing next to her, rubbing her sleepy eyes.

“Haaa…. By the way, are we going alone?”

“Since all the other kids are asleep…. There is no need to forcefully wake him up.”

“Yes…. Let’s go now….”

Sylvia’s eyes kept closing.

Please don’t lie on her sidewalk, because I’m begging you.

* * *

“Ah…. It’s the head….”

“You should have been drinking in moderation.”

“But, jerky goes really well with alcohol…” . Who are you? The man who made that heinous jerky.”

“… Did I make it?”

“… Okay. Somehow it was so delicious.”

After leaving the dorm, Sylvia and I were walking again in the commercial district we had walked together yesterday when we went to see Lowell.

At first, even Sylvia’s gait, which was staggering as she was drunk, she suddenly became normal as if she had just woken up.

However, I would say instead. The hangover seemed to come all at once, so he frowned the entire time we walked. I wondered if I had made a mistake.

“So, where are you going?”

“First, I have to go to the ranger training center.”

“Ranger training center?”

Sylvia looked up at me with an expression like, “What is that?” If you ask what…. Well.

“Yes. Ranger training camp.”

“If it’s a ranger training school…. Austin, isn’t that where you were raised to fight so well?”

“… Yes. But, Sylvia.”

“Ugh, yes… ?”

I lifted her hands and chin on Sylvia’s shoulders! He sighed and opened her mouth.

“It’s just an idiot town. I don’t know what you’re thinking, but it’s just how to make people suffer the most. The place where these things are studied is the Ranger Training Center.”

“Uh…. That, yes… ?”

“Even the food is f*cking tasteless, the only thing to do is train or exercise, all of the comrades-in-arms seem to have lost a screw somewhere….”

Ranger training camp.

I don’t have any good memories of that damn training camp. The last time I put it into practice, I lost my comrades…. It’s just a purgatory where all kinds of absurdities and dog sh*t are gathered.

The rice was terribly tasteless, and the barracks were truly awful. I’ve never seen a day when the barracks were rat-free. On the other hand, the fact that the equipment provided was unnecessarily good in quality was a point that made it even more annoying.

I hope it improves a bit now. Otherwise, it would be a shame for me to recommend Max to the training center.

Anyway, in my hellish training school life, a few kind classmates and Instructor Pamela were my only hope. Thanks to them, I was able to complete the ranger training school with a smile.

Thankful people. It’s been a really long time since we met.

“It was just a joke. Anyway, it’s just a place to train rangers. Nothing special.”

“Aha…. Okay? I thought it was a very underdeveloped place again.”

Rangers compete for the top among human combat forces. Sylvia seemed excited at the thought of being able to see where the Rangers were being trained.

I’m sorry, Sylvia. That’s right, it’s an underdeveloped place.

“By the way, Sylvia.”

“Huh? Why?”

“You…. Don’t you think of my brother?”

“… You mean Agato?”

“… Huh.”

Sylvia’s expression became complex and subtle. He hated Agato in the past, but Sylvia now must have vaguely realized it.

In the past, it wasn’t Agato’s fault that Agato was favored more than Sylvia. Even when he was active in the Demon King’s Army, Agato was trying to look after Sylvia.

“I… I do not know. Huh.”

“… Okay. I won’t care how long it takes, so at least your relationship with Agato is settled well.”

That was sincere advice. Even for me, I completely cut myself off from the warrior party and only recently reconciled.

Sylvia also listened to my heartfelt advice, and she shook her head with a serious expression.

“… I didn’t mean to lighten the mood. Sorry.”

“Ugh…. No. Are you okay. Agato anyway… I had to talk to her brother somehow, that’s what I was thinking too.”

“Then it’s fortunate.”

“Ummm…. So, after going to the training camp, where are you going?”

“I must go to the guild. I need to get Gahlran’s bounty.”

Sylvia said with her wry smile.

“Galan…. Okay. Galan. We killed Galran too, we.”

“It’s sad.”

“Sad.”

“It’s also a pleasure.”

“Ahahahaha…. That too.”

As we walked and talked about this and that, unaware of the passing of time, we were already on the outskirts of the city.

This way… Very used to Sometimes when I was on vacation, I used to drink with Robin on this street.

In the distance, I began to see the entrance of the ranger training camp that I had been watching for years.

“Hey…. Nothing has changed. I miss you, I miss you….”

“Hey there….”

We moved a little faster. The entrance to the Ranger Training Center, filled with all sorts of memories, was getting closer and closer.

We stopped right in front of the entrance. From deep inside, I could vaguely hear the powerful commanding voices of the future rangers who were being reborn as murder weapons.

There was a time when I rolled like a dog like that. After a moment of reminiscing, Sylvia tugged at my sleeve.

“Austin. Austin.”

“Uh, uh. I was thinking about something else…. Why did you call me?”

“What is that… ?”

“… Hmm?”

My gaze moved along Sylvia’s fingers. At the end….

At the end….

“Uh… what is written…. 101St… Austin… The final warrior party… Pass… ? What else is that… Could it be, is that Austin?”

“… ….”

At the end…. There was even a large, painted monstrosity next to it with my name on the door, a face that I couldn’t tell if I had failed in trying to draw my face, or if it was so funny that I couldn’t tell if it was human or not.

Ranger training camp, at the entrance. It’s okay. It’s a big word.

* * *

“Whoa…. Be hard….”

Instructor Pamela let out a sigh as she relaxed her tired shoulders from today’s hard training.

“When I was young, it wasn’t like this….”

After raising the next Ranger talent like this, he was approaching his mid-30s before he knew it, but Instructor Pamela had no intention of retiring just yet.

She got up and looked in the mirror on the wall of her office.

From noble mtl dot com

No wrinkles yet. Sagging flesh, not yet. Dark circles, not yet. The skin….

“This is still active duty. Whoops….”

It wasn’t a look that would make you kneel anywhere yet. Not yet.

“… Hmm?”

As she peered into the mirror and carefully examined her face, she noticed that the hallway outside her room was a bit cluttered.

Thump! Thud! Thud! Thud!

Who would dare to walk through the hallway in front of the office of Instructor Pamela, the oldest at this training center, stomping her feet like that?

Thinking so, the moment she turned her head toward the door with a bewildered face, the door of the office was violently opened with someone kicking in anger.

Boom!!!

“Hey, you f*cking old lady!!!!!! Come out right now!!!!!!”

“Who is the lady!!!!!!!!!!”

The reunion after a long time was in the worst form.
