"Hurry up and get the barbecue off, it's going to be burned! Sandy, you idiot!"

"This voice sounds full of energy, like a girl. 」

"Don't make noise, try to be as quiet as possible in the camp, what is it like to be noisy. ”

"The man's voice seems to be very reliable. 」

"Why do I hear these people? Where am I?"

Suddenly opened his eyes, An Ran found himself lying in the tent, covered with a blanket made of brand new warm fur, and his clothes had been changed into clean long sleeves, but he didn't think too much, but lifted the blanket and walked out, mainly because the aroma of barbecue had begun to spread, and he might not be able to eat it if he went late.

"You're awake," the owner of the energetic voice, a young girl with curly pink hair, enthusiastically handed An Ran a steaming piece of roast meat, "Eat something, freshly roasted, I hope you don't dislike Sandy, he lacks enough enthusiasm for roasting." ”

"Oh yes, my name is Wendy, the guy in charge of the barbecue is Sandy, and the cold-looking guy sitting there is called Ellbert, and the captain of our hunting party. ”

The short-haired young man in charge of the barbecue smiled at him helplessly: "Wendy's evaluation of my cooking skills has always been like this. ”

"Thank you, my name is An Ran, and I just became a hunter," An Ran took the barbecue and thanked him, and then sat down on the empty seat by the campfire, "How long have I slept?"

"In less than a day, our team was commissioned to collect you, and it was Annbert who found you," Wendy sat down next to Enron very familiarly, "You were found like a specimen sealed in red amber, but it was also because of you that we picked up a lot of ornithosaurus teeth around there." ”

An Ran imagined the situation where the group of dog dragons broke their teeth instead of making a mouth to themselves, and couldn't help but pull the corners of their mouths, it was really cool for a while, God knows if he would wake up in the stomach pouch of a large monster after the next time.

"I'm curious, how did you hunt an ape fox and a beetle without equipment?" Elbert, who had been silent, suddenly asked, "Even the upper hunters don't have the destructive power that borders on natural disasters, and you look like a newcomer to the guild." ”

"(⊙o⊙)..."An Ran was a little confused by Ellbert's question, but fortunately he was no stranger to this question, and someone had already answered it for him, "I did just join the Hunters' Guild, but this is not the first time I have hunted monsters, if you have the right equipment, maybe you can see the specimen of the Mighty Mountain Dragon in Barbarare." ”

"You're the one who fought off the Mighty Mountain Dragon alone in the Balbarare Battle, that, that ......" Wendy stood up very excitedly when she heard his answer, but a shy red appeared on her face as she spoke.

"????" An Ran's face was full of question marks, and Wendy's expression and half-said this scene made people can't help but think about it.

"Protected Barbarre's 'lingerie hunters', that's what the tavern guys call you. Sandy said in a very gloating tone that this title could be regarded as a lifetime of black history.

"Lingerie Hunter"?!What the hell is this title! It must be that Uncle Whitebeard who is messing with me again, if there is a scene of mutual registration in the future, do I have to say this strange line of "I am the 'Lingerie Hunter' who protects Barbarre"?"

"Don't dwell on that strange title," Ambert comforted him unexpectedly, "The strength of this world is the most important thing, you have the ability of a superior hunter, and even stronger, but I also hope that you can take on the responsibility corresponding to your strength." ”

"I know that with great power comes great responsibility. ”

Elbert's words reminded Enron of a tragic superhero for whom ability was nothing more than a tool for "them" to entertain, and he himself was like a doll created for the amusement of others.

"I'm surprised that you can say such a profound truth, but I can tell," Startled by Enron's words, Ellbert looked at the young man in front of him again, "You're not ready to take responsibility yet, but I'm sure there will come a day." ”

"......" An Ran, who didn't understand what the other party was talking about, stopped thinking and reached out to ask for a piece of barbecue from Sandy, the main quest has been completed, and the next thing is to find the fire dragon egg that the glasses lady has in mind, and then you can go back to the business.

"Do you know any shortcuts to the fifth area other than the rock face? I'm not good at the fact that I'm freehand climbing. "If you follow the route marked on the map, the fastest way to reach Area 5 safely is to climb nearly 60 meters with your bare hands, but unfortunately he, a half-hung hunter, has not mastered this skill at all.

"There's a path in the Seventh Sector that was once carved out by poachers, bring me your map and I'll mark it for you. ”

Ambert gave the answer, which also made Enron more impressed by his reliability.

After handing the map to Albert, Enron continued to ask, "Poachers, aren't hunters just a profession for hunting monsters, why are there still poachers?"

After marking the map, Elbert returned it to Enron, and then sighed: "In addition to protecting civilians from monsters, hunters also have the responsibility to maintain ecological balance. It's not that the hunter who hunts the most monsters is the strongest hunter, but maintaining the balance between monsters and us is the most important task of a hunter. ”

"The normal hunting commission is because some kind of monster is over-multiplied, or the monster is causing an obstacle to some village, and the poacher only hunts monsters for money, you must know that human greed is an abyss that can never be filled, someone pays for it, and someone will hunt. And if this kind of thing goes beyond a certain limit, it will invite the monsters called the natural disaster to retaliate. ”

With that, Elbert fell silent again, and the heavy topic fell silent along with Sandy and Wendy, making the atmosphere awkward for a while.

"Hunters still have to join the Monster Protection Society, it sounds like a lot of trouble, and those monsters that are called natural disasters, it's better not to meet them if they have a chance. 」

"Alright, thanks for the hospitality, I'm going to finish my commission. ”

After a long time, the sky gradually darkened, and Enron decided to break the silence, so after thanking the hunting team again, he prepared to leave the camp early.

Wendy seemed to want to keep him, but was stopped by Albert's eyes.

"Go," said Elbert, smiling at him after waving goodbye, and then muttered in a voice that Enron could not hear, "one day your name will be sung by bards on this continent, I believe." ”

"Alright, clean up the barbecue, extinguish the campfire, sprinkle the powder, and we're ready to rest. ”

It wasn't until Enron couldn't be seen that Ellbert began to arrange preparations before resting, for them, their own safety always came first, and the danger of night hunting had been shown for free by many guys who were forced to give up their hunter profession in the tavern.

"Why don't you keep him in the camp for the night?" Wendy poured sand onto the campfire and complained about the captain's behavior of preventing her from staying safe.

"He's not going to be in danger," Elbert grabbed a handful of powder from his bag and scattered it around the camp, then looked meaningfully in the direction of Enron's departure.

"That boy's power doesn't stop at the top hunters, and even in a few years, we might be able to boast that we've witnessed the birth of a legend. ”
