"Take a good rest before exercising."

Karp slowly put the Poké Ball containing the little Kirby Beast into the simple fanny pack on his waist, and walked out of the cadet dormitory.

Decide before you act, this is Karp's usual style.

Although he currently has enough money to cover a week, he is not used to waiting for him to run out of money before running around. Get early access to next week's funds, that's what Karp is going to do right now.

The source of income when I was a student, if I put it in my previous life, I didn't cry, make trouble and hang myself at home, but probably went out to work. The former isn't Karp's style, while the latter is what he's going to do next.

Part-time job - this term may make many people think of waiter, cashier, cleaner, tutor and other jobs, but Karp's part-time job and this kind of part-time job are very different in style and income.

Because he has to feed little Kirbymon, Karp has always had a part-time job outside of school.

And the job is -

Bounty Hunter.

......

The sideburns of the Alliance, the traitor of the hunters.

When it comes to bounty hunters, it is estimated that there are many poachers who will not be stingy with such an evaluation. It's a profession that can be done by any trainer recognized by the Alliance: once you have a license, you can pick up quests on the quest board in the Elven Center, and then earn a bounty based on the completion of the quest.

But of course, it is absolutely impossible to be on the task board of the elf center to snatch other people's elves, but most of them are missions to fight against this group of poachers.

That's why the poachers who claim to be true bounty hunters give the bounty hunter profession such an evaluation.

But at the end of the day, this kind of thing has nothing to do with Karp.

He wasn't the kind of guy with a sense of justice, and it was impossible for him to put his elves in danger with him because of his passion.

As a trainer, he must be responsible for the spirits who are willing to follow him. Therefore, except for being forced to be helpless, Karp basically does not take on some missions to fight poachers, even if there are more than one such missions every day. It was precisely because of this that he left home early and rushed to the nearest elf center to him.

If it's too late, those simple, threshold-less tasks that can be completed by individuals will be snatched away by others. In that case, Karp will have to wait for a few days, and if it doesn't work for a while, he will probably have to accept some combat missions.

It's true that the little Kirbymon has learned the art of multiplication, but it's still too early to fight the unscrupulous poachers.

So, Karp left the dormitory early.

......

About two hours after he left the dormitory, a group of people arrived at the door of his dormitory.

"Boss, are you sure that weirdo Karp will be out at this time?"

A young man with short black hair and a face of Chinese characters who might be mistaken for a knight by wearing armor was crouching on the side of the dormitory building, looking at the being he called the boss next to him.

"Shut up Zhengrong, the other party is an excellent trainer who can defeat my big go head-on in the academy's competition, you are not allowed to call him a weirdo!"

The knight boy known as Zhengrong looked at Daigo beside him and sighed helplessly.

"Boss, since you think he's an excellent trainer, why did we come here early in the morning?"

Daigo listened to Zhengrong's words, and there was a bit of fighting spirit in those silver-blue eyes.

"Of course I'm going to fight him again! His little Kirbymon is really powerful, but I've been training my Cocodora more vigorously since I got back, and this time it's going to be my victory! ”

Zhengrong looked at Daigo, who seemed to be already burning, and was even more helpless.

"Boss, that weird ...... The little Kirbymon of a good trainer will easily win if you fight it. Its attack power is strong, but it's too slow, and you can't lose if you don't fight it head-on. ”

Listening to Zhengrong's words, Daigo also returned to a normal state from his previous hot-blooded state. In this state, he snorted coldly, quite dissatisfied with Zhengrong's words.

"What are you talking about Zhengrong, of course you have to choose a head-on confrontation if you say a man! Don't worry, I'll be able to beat him head-on this time! ”

Seeing that his boss was burning again, Zhengrong could only sigh helplessly, and then waited here for two hours with his boss.

"Boss, I'll call him down!"

Finally, Zhengrong's little patience was completely scrapped, and he frowned as he looked at the dormitory building next to him.

"No!"

And beside him, Daigo hugged his shoulders and leaned against the dormitory building, his eyes closed.

"We're in a clear position right now, and he can see it even in the dorm. When I was a kid, I heard trainers in the company say that most of the best trainers have a bit of a quirk. He must be testing our resolve and patience.

I'm not going to lose! ”

Zhengrong looked at Daigo like this, blinked, and had to continue to wait.

He still knows a lot about his boss.

Usually everything is fine, but once you enter the current state of stubbornness, you can't listen to anything. Just like his favorite steel system, he himself is quite stubborn.

Helpless, but Daigo said so, and he had to wait here.

So.

They waited another four hours.

Halfway through, Masaei went to buy water and lunch once, and then Daigo said that he wouldn't eat anything. Although his stomach kept growling, he just repeated the phrase 'I won't lose' and then didn't eat or drink water.

Zhengrong felt that if this continued, maybe his boss would starve to death here, so he could only sneak into the dormitory under the pretext of going to the toilet.

"Well, can you ask what Karp's dormitory is?"

Because he didn't know Karp before, Zhengrong naturally didn't know what Karp's dormitory was. So, in desperation, I had to ask the doorman of the dormitory building.

The doorman glanced at him, then pointed to the room across from him.

"It's that one, 001, because he was the first to come when the dormitory was assigned, so I remember it very clearly."

Hearing the doorman's answer, Zhengrong's brows furrowed again.

001 - Isn't that the one behind the wall they're leaning on!

When he thought that the two of them were outside in the wind and sun, while the other party was eating potato chips and drinking Coke in the house, he looked at himself and the boss through the gap between the curtains, Zhengrong became angry.

So he immediately walked towards Karp's room in a menacing manner.

"Karp-you come out for me!"

"You're looking for Karp?"

Before he could knock on the door, the doorman behind him stopped him.

"He's been out of the house since six o'clock in the morning, so if you want to find him, go somewhere else, or contact him by some other means." He hasn't come back yet. ”

Hearing this, Zhengrong's eyes widened, and he moved his mouth, and he didn't know what to say for a while.

After a long time, he was a little helpless, covering his face with one hand, with an expression of saying that he was not resentful, and that he was not angry.

Especially when I think of what our boss said - the other party is testing our patience again. His expression became more distinct.

"—what the hell did we fight the air for six hours?"
