Strange Grief Wants to Retire ~ The Weakest Hunter Dreams of a Hero ~

Chapter 295.1: Qualities



Chapter 295.1: Qualities

The number of priests who came out of the treasure chest exceeded ten. Even Liz was surprised at the number of priests being pulled out of the treasure chests.

The reactions of those who were pulled out varied. Some were in a daze, as if they were dreaming, while others were so moved that they began to cry. Liz and the others came out immediately, so it was still fine, but if they had been trapped in the box for years, of course, they would want to cry. Even Eva was teary-eyed after a few minutes.

Zh-Zhank you very much! You weally zaved meee! (Priest)

Un, un, good for you, good for you. (Cry)

All's well that ends well. From what I heard, these people were swallowed up after inadvertently removing the lock while organizing the warehouse. I don't know how one could inadvertently unlock a treasure chest But I guess that means these are not-very-serious priests. Moreover, it seems like they weren't someone really important as it didn't become a big deal even after they went missing

However, if a locked treasure chest is unlocked, wouldn't someone be suspicious

When I frowned and looked at the treasure chest, it was just about to pick up the lock and lock itself.  Apparently It seems to have an auto-lock function. It has grown arms too Was there a function like that?

Hmmm. Did you guys build that town? (Liz)

N-No The town was already there originally. Moreover, you don't get hungry or thirsty inside (Priest)

That's Awesome. Some Treasure Shrines have rules that are different from this world, but it may be similar to that.

This seems to have many uses. Yes, for example You can remove all the water from the sea or something

Huh? Could that be a function to keep food fresh?

Anyway, regardless of that, it is a terrifying Relic. If its ability is found out, the country will most likely take it.

It seems like it will be a slippery slope if you think too deeply about this. So I *pon* hit my hands and say to the priests who are outside for the first time in a long time.

For the time being, why don't you go and meet your family as soon as possible, telling them you have been spirited away or something like that?  I will take care of this box, so please keep it a secret. (Cry)

The priests leave the Clan House while thanking me frequently. I don't know how much information the priests will give But well, if they ask me to return it, I will quietly return it. This overpowered box is honestly too much for me. I don't have any use for it If I put my Relic collection in it, I can save space in my room, but I won't be able to see my collection at any time, and if I go inside, I won't be able to escape on my own, which is too big of a drawback.

But I had no idea that I would end up helping people What a strange world we are living in. I was involved in a lot of strange mayhem, but if there were people who were saved by it, it would be meaningful, wouldn't it?

As I was about to end on this note, Liz gave me an uncharacteristically serious look.

Cry-chan, those guys are probably Not from this era, you know. They're dressed differently. (Liz)

Eh? (Cry)

Maybe their sense of time was off because there was no sun. But maybe, just maybe, when you are inside that boxYou don't age (Liz)

(Cry)

A chill ran through me. Tino sensed something and closed her ears tightly with both hands. I feel the same way. I hope you don't hit me with any more strange stories right in front of my face. Doesn't that really make them spirited away people? I will hold off on letting it fight with the carpet for a while. It is a bit too heavy.

I take a deep breath and decide to give up and forget about it. This treasure chest looks a little bit dangerous, but it is fine if I don't use it. Fortunately, it is a nice-looking treasure chest so it will be a nice interior decoration for my private room.

I spread my hand and say while looking at the Ring Relic I just got from Tino.

No, weeell, anyway, I am glad I could see Liz and Tino's growth. (Cry)

!? (Tino)

Eeeeh, which part did we grow? (Liz)

Tino's eyes widen and Liz pouts.

The part you grow was You prioritized Tino over the exit. And on the contrary, Tino became a natural Treasure Hunter who prioritized Relics over the exit.

I can't stand it if I get involved in any more trouble. I will have Martis-san appraise the ring later.

I remove the ring while humming a tune. As I was about to take it offI realized something.

Master~, uhm How is it, the ring? (Tino)

I feel like Ti~ took the best part. Well, if Cry-chan says so, that's fine (Liz)

Maybe she was happy to be of help, Tino had a *muzumuzu* wiggling smile and Liz seemed to be sort of satisfied. I cleared my throat a little and quickly put my hand in my pocket and said.

I-It is not that bad. Let's go get Martis-san to appraise it right away! (Cry)

The ring I can't take it off, tho'? Don't tell me, this ring Is cursed? What What do I do?

Thanks for reading! Sasuga Cry, saving people from a different era! And yes the treasure chest grew some arms to lock itself XD
