The Strongest Hunter Who Was Not Allowed To Hunt Monsters Joined a Cooking Guild - Chapter 18
A loud voice echoed in the Hunter Guild in the afternoon on a cheerful afternoon.
“what!!”
Gangel, the guild master, stands up unintentionally.
His snorting and blushing face reminded of a bullfrog.
The guild staff who came to announce the report was pushed by the force and was about to drop the documents, but the result was a pile of documents piled up in front of Gangel.
“Hmm, is that true …”
Gangel asks with a slight sigh.
He grabbed his chest, which has endured the stress of work for over 30 years.
In such a devilish appearance the guild staff nods as they come.
“No doubt, Leviathan, King of the Sea, has appeared off the coast of Chichigaga Bay.”
Sea Dragon King Leviathan.
As the name suggests, it is the king of the giant sea dragon, even though it is called the sea dragon species.
It is large enough to swallow a large ship, yet boasts unbeatable speed underwater, and its underwater impact alone can cause huge waves.
Life in the sea is basic, but it has an extraordinary jumping power and reaches the rain clouds floating in the sky.
The rank set by the Hunter Guild is “S”, needless to say.
There are only two examples of hunting the Leviathan in the past.
Chichigaga Bay is one of the leading fishing grounds in the Kingdom of Vanahia, where the Hunter Guild is located.
Thanks to the cold currents from the north and the warm currents from the south, a variety of fish gather, and the fish caught there are distributed to markets throughout the Kingdom of Vanahaia by frost magic. The amount of fish reached 30% of the kingdom’s fishes, making it an indispensable fishing ground.
Another feature is that it has a depth that makes it impossible to see the seabed just by going a little offshore.
Leviathan began to sit in the Chichigaga Bay five days ago-it was discovered in a report from a nearby fisherman.
He complained that it was too dangerous to leave a fishing boat as it was.
“Why is it Leviathan?”
There are other reasons why Gangel has a headache.
Starting with Leviathan, S-rank monsters have begun to actively work in various places.
That is ――――.
”King bird Sky Bone.”
”Ground Battle King Ancient bore.”
”King corn Kakuo “
”Empress Prisila”
And “Kairyuou” Leviathan.
There were reports from various places on Gangel’s desk that the most troublesome kings of monsters in the S rank were beginning to rampage in various places as if they had shown together.
And, unfortunately, only after Zelet left the guild.
(It’s as if they were waiting for Zelet to quit …)
Gangel sits on a chair once and bites his nails.
Already the nails were tattered and jagged like a fork.
“I have received many requests from fishermen to get rid of it as soon as possible. What should we do?”
“Noisy! Shut up! I’m thinking about it now !!”
Gangel throws the nail clippers on the desk to his subordinates.
He bit his nails again and meditated with a rattling noise.
Even without Zelet, there are still many hunters left in the Hunter Guild. There are also hunters who have experience of defeating S-rank monsters.
However, there is no hunter who can be trusted in terms of ability if he can subdue more reliably than Zelet.
Moreover, the opponent is “Kairyuou” Leviathan. It won’t be a straightforward fight.
I didn’t want to bow to Zelet from now on.
“Okay. If this happens, I’ll win with all the Hunter Guilds …”
Gangel finally got angry.
When I sit up again and try to give instructions, the door of the office opens.
It was the scent of perfume that drifted earlier than the appearance of the occupants. Gangel and the guild staff involuntarily turn back to the strong scent.
Shortly afterwards, the men, who appeared to be chamberlains, pulled a red carpet straight toward Gangel’s office desk.
It was a woman whose age was unknown who appeared on top of it with a relaxed gait.
Insidious drooping eyes with eye shadow and dark cheeks. A lady with a thick fur around her neck and a blackish outfit overall.
“Marquis Henderone!”
Gangel raises a crazy voice.
Delisa Bonis Henderone.
She is the current head of the Marquis Henderone family, and is a powerful person who has a good face in social circles.
What she is obsessed with is, after all, a monster protection policy.
From her point of view, any ferocious monster lives in this world. Of course, it is a worthy thing, and it is wrong for humans to hunt monsters, Marquis Henderone accuses.
It’s also a radical way to involve the people.
However, even if someone with a status like her appeals loudly, the monster hunting will not end easily.
There, the Marquis de Henderone took an amazing action.
She became a patron of the Hunter Guild.
Instead of directly funding the hunter guild, who was in trouble with money, she urged them to refrain from their activities, and as a result, she pushed through the absurd proposal of a total ban on S-rank monsters.
Gangel, who was indignant in front of Zelet, had a feeling of intestinal failure in this decision.
However, I want enough money to run the guild.
The offer of the Marquis Henderone was such that I had no choice but to cling to her for the continuation of the guild, which was drowning.
When the Henderone comes in front of him, Gangel, who had been indignantly giving instructions, suddenly changes his complexion.
I lowered my hips and began to rub my hands together, and I greeted the Marquis.
“Marquis! Why are you coming in a hurry?”
” Listen here, about Chichigaga Bay …”
The Marquis Henderone begins to flutter her fan. The wind pressure caused the unhealthy mass under the chin to quiver.
“Ei, do you mean Leviathan?”
Gangel bows his head and slumps.
“Yeah. Over there. A ship owned by the Henderone family is stuck. It’s a state-of-the-art sailing ship that is worth three times your guild. I’m thinking of having a party, but Leviathan has prevented the ship from sailing, right? “
“Haha! I will Immediately dispatch a hunter to defeat Leviathan — it hurts !!”
Something hits Gangel’s lowered head.
I saw the fan of the Marquis on the floor.
The chamberlain picked up the fan, and another chamberlain offered a spare fan, and the Marquis began to fan herself again.
“Who asked for the subjugation? How many times do you want me to say …”
Marquis Henderone finally hits the desk. It’s like a money lender who came to collect money.
“You say that a monster is also a life. It’s outrageous to take that life because of human desires. You explained that it’s an ego, right?”
“Oh, you’re right! That’s right!”
“Get rid of it! Of course, don’t hurt it.”
Then, Gangel bows again, swallowing the words that it is neither desire nor ego to drive away S-rank monsters for a party on board.
“Understood!”
After hearing Gangel’s words, it seems that the amount of drinking has finally decreased.
The Marquis Henderone gives only a warning and goes out quickly. All that remained was the scent of a strong perfume.
“Huh …”
Gangel sits in a chair and sighs.
The guild staff, who have been watching the exchange for a long time, looks at Gangel leaning on the back of the chair.
His face looked ten years older than before the Marquis came in.
