Strange Grief Wants to Retire ~ The Weakest Hunter Dreams of a Hero ~
Chapter Summary
Even if I couldn’t eliminate the 《Lightning Emperor (Raitei)》, I would have liked to have taken advantage of this incident to weaken Nora’s fighting power a little more――. I was thinking what kind of Relic Tino would have when she said to not count on Relic, but then I remembered what happened a few novels down the line XDThat Doppler Cry yell and the fact that Cry said that Tino can use the other as shields when she just said that she wouldn’t XDOh okay they did make the Phantom disappear immed...
“Sorry, Kryhi, but I have my goals.
Since I helped you, you will have to accompany me.
” (Cry)“Yeah, of course!
Mechanized soldiers are perfect for trying out all sorts of things.
I think there’s still room for my lightning to evolve, so I’d be happy to help you with your work, however little I can!
” (Kryhi)Cheerfully answers Kryhi Andrichhi, the 《Lightning Emperor (Raitei)》.
This man…… Is he still planning to evolve more?
Moreover, even though I asked him for a favor, he would happily help me without even asking me what it was――.
Kool and the others have smiles on their faces, but their eyes aren’t smiling.
As for Elise, her eyes completely look the other way.
I am sure he had helped people here and there with a similar level of enthusiasm, which led him to attack Code as well.
Now, although I said I would ask for his cooperation, I wonder what I should make him do…… If I ask him to do something reckless, it will probably lead to a terrible situation.
To start with, I sit down in a chair, cross my hands, put on a badass smile, and say something random.
“Fuuuh…… Things are finally getting a little interesting!
” (Cry)Kaiser, Saya, we are all set here.
Please join us quickly.
§ § §“The 《Lightning Emperor (Raitei)》…… I never thought he would be able to fight to this extent within Code.
” (Angus)I, Angus Code, sigh as I review the details of the war that had broken out in the prison.
I manipulated the prison’s military forces by rewriting the rules.
The operation went according to my strategy.
The timing of rewriting the rule was near perfect, and Nora changing it back was unexpected but still within the tolerable margin.
It was surprising that Nora would give up on the 《Lightning Emperor (Raitei)》, but oh well.
The only thing that had completely exceeded my expectations was――The power of the 《Lightning Emperor (Raitei)》.
Magic structures within Code are disrupted.
In particular, offensive Magic has little effect as it is dismantled by the city the moment it is released.
To think that he would bypass it with such a method――Indeed, Code’s system can dismantle Magic, but it cannot dismantle the lightning that is generated.
To think that he could repel the prison’s weapons so easily……However, there is no way that Code would just leave it alone after knowing his own weakness.
In the first place, the current mechanized soldiers can deal with a certain amount of lightning without any problems.
If a lightning user with a higher level of power than expected appeared, it is simply just a matter of strengthening its countermeasures.
“Hmph…… I wish I could have used the incapacitating gas.
” (Angus)“The prison’s rules are complex.
I believe “Your Highness (Denka)” has done all you could.
” (Jin)I know that.
No matter how experienced I am with the city system, that is the best he can do with the rules that can be changed in such a short period of time.
If complex rules are changed carelessly and by force, there is no telling where it will start to break down.
However, it doesn’t change the fact that it is a pity.
If we could have eliminated the 《Lightning Emperor (Raitei)》, we should have done so here.
If we had been able to use Saaya and Kai, we would have been able to kill the 《Lightning Emperor (Raitei)》.

push({}); However, it was too risky to send them there.
There will inevitably be inconsistencies when the rules are suddenly rewritten.
In the unlikely event that I am recognized as having broken the king’s rules by sending those two, aiming for the throne will be the last thing I have to think about.
The king’s rules cannot be broken.
Even Nora never attacked the Spare’s Royal Guards with the knight she took with her.
She understands the taboo.
The good news is that the 《Lightning Emperor (Raitei)》 did not fall into Nora’s hands.
The one who obtained the 《Lightning Emperor (Raitei)》, the Spare――Alisha Code has nothing to do with the battle for the throne.
But I am far from being satisfied with this result.
Even if I couldn’t eliminate the 《Lightning Emperor (Raitei)》, I would have liked to have taken advantage of this incident to weaken Nora’s fighting power a little more――.
“It is not going well.
It is not going well at all.
” (Angus)“We must be patient until “Your Highness (Denka)” ascends to the throne.
” (Jin)Says Jin with a smile to me who is groaning.
The succession to the throne is near.
Thanks for reading!
And here is the last chapter of Volume 11, so that mean we are halfway through this arc!
I also added the illustration on chapter 399 part 2 and 400 part 2.
Things are finally getting interesting, all the pieces are set.
Now what will Infinite Variety next move be?
And here is my impression of the 3rd episode of Strange Grief:Yeees another flashback!
We got Luke self-proclaimed alias Testament Blade (Zetai Shin Ken) name drop.
And RIP wooden sword, you will be the first one of many to come.
Sasuga Cry’s luck, meeting a Cyclops at a Level 1 Treasure Shrine.
But wait, zoom, enhance on Cry!
Why does he have dust on him!?
They should have made Cry spotless so we can see that he never gets injured!
Liz and Sytry are ruthless, shoving a Cyclops’ head in a bad XD For people who skipped the opening, there is a conversation between Luke and Lucia about the fact that the Cyclops’ head will disappear soon as it is made of Mana Material.
At least no mistake on that part, I was afraid they were going to make the Phantom disappear immediately after being killed like in Danmachi.
So they skipped the 1st wolf fight… Bummer I wanted to see the Yami Nabe Party cooperation fight (Went to check in the manga and novel but it also skipped the fight, so it wasn’t cut content) Level 8 Divine Strategy (Shinsan Kibou), everything is according to (Cry’s) keikaku!
I was thinking what kind of Relic Tino would have when she said to not count on Relic, but then I remembered what happened a few novels down the line XDThat Doppler Cry yell and the fact that Cry said that Tino can use the other as shields when she just said that she wouldn’t XDOh okay they did make the Phantom disappear immediately after dying… Wait the “blood” is blue!?
Is it Mana Material or censure…?
Yoooo!
Master~ wa kami!
And in the background, you have the other still fighting XDIt is true that Gilbert’s flashback helps to understand his character growth, but I am like meh I don’t really care about that guy.
When we got the wolf closeup, did anyone think that the wolf would counterattack Gilbert after being cut?
The music and the mood were perfect to have Gilbert die after realizing that having companions is nice.
Same comment as Gilbert’s flashback for Greg’s flashback.
In another timeline, Greg stagnates as a Level 4 Hunter forever, Gilbert goes Solo and maybe dies and Ruda joins some unknown Party and will never level up.
Yo, never thought we would get another Master~ wa kami!
Lol Ruda got picked because of her boobs XD 4 Barrier rings used during the flightTino got some amazingly cool evasion shots during the fight!
And Ruda, why do you think she isn’t afraid of it?
It’s because she spars with something even scarier than a mere Phantom.
Ok, there is blood, so blue blood is Mana Material blood.
Oh, I just understood why Tino put the ring on her pinky.
It’s because Cry put the ring on his pinky when he had it.
Always thought that it was weird why Tino put it there.
Human missile to the rescue!
And that cloak flips, so badaaaass!
Too bad they didn’t emphasize the wolf being unharmed by making a cartoony look or face.
But it is funny how afraid they are of Sytry’s SlimeWait whaaat we also get a Tino flashback!?
We are eating good!
Damn that Strange Grief theme song coming back, so badaaaaass!
The day when City Girl Tino learned about Strange Grief and join the Master~ wa kami cult Haha the sweet voice Tino made to appeal to CryOh, I finally understand what they are doing in the next episode preview, they are rapping Let’s go, we have 1st view of Liz in the preview!
TL;DR A nice episode before the climax of the 1st Arc.
The fight wasn’t crazy but we got character growth for Gilbert and the explanation of Cry’s choice of the Yami Nabe Party.
Love the Strange Grief and Tino flashback, the Strange Grief theme song popping during the flashback is reaaaally good.
So with this episode, it is kind of confirmed that we are going to have 3 novels animated.
It is a good pace, so nice.
I was afraid when they showed Strange Grief’s seiyuu, I thought they were going to anime 5 novels but 3 is okay, although the 3 first novels aren’t really the best arc.
Let’s go for the next episode next week, I want to see Liz go crazy!
If you are in a generous mood and want to support me, I will be very grateful!
