<h4>Chapter61，Part1: 1 - Safe</h4> <h4>Chapter 61 Safe</h4> <h4>Part 1</h4>


    n Master is a difficult position.


    In the first ce, the organizational system called n, consists of gathering multiple parties, so the situation tends to beplicated.


    To me, except “Strange Grief (The Lamenting Ghost)”, I am closer to n Members than other party, but we are not friends.


    Even if we say it is a n, they all have various purposes and organizational system.


    While in some ns, the Master’smands are absolute. Whereas in other ns, there are those who they let their parties operate separately from the n.


    If there are ridiculous n who forced lower party to go in the front, then there are also n who wants to incorporate a party who work for a noble to get his connection and form a faction.


    “First Step (Footprint of the Beginning)” is a very general n whose purposes are mutual assistance, information exchange and exploration support.


    The reason I created this n wasn’t for wealth or power. So, this is probably why this n is looser than other ns.


    I have only set up three rules.


    Everyone should get along.


    Don’t bother the ordinary people.


    And democracy.


    There are other detailed rules set up by Eva and the others but those are the only major rules.


    Initially, “Footprint” was a n made by gathering multiple parties of the same rank. So, it was very difficult to choose who was going to be at the top, the n Master.


    Hunters values hierarchy. If there is a big difference in each other certification Level, it will be simple. But everyone would want their party leader to be Master.


    “Footprint” solved this hurdle by giving the n Master little authority.


    The n Master of “Footprint of the Beginning” would be elected by majority and would have no control right over the party belonging to the n.


    In short, when the n Members are mostly listening to my requests, it is just them doing me a favor.


    However, my childhood friends doesn’t take that truth into consideration.


    Contrary to Liz or Luke, Sytry doesn’t resort to physical violence but that point doesn’t change much.


    “Is it going to be okay… I wonder if they will leave…”


    “I think it will be all right. Cry-san. Surely one day those people will understand Cry-san’s kindness.”


    In the n Master Room. I sit on my chair and recalls what happened in the Lounge. The main culprit, this time, says with her eyes closed.


    Why are you saying it as if it was my fault…?


    I was just thinking of asking a little favor… But the way of doing it is too horrible.


    It wasn’t an atmosphere where I could stop them when they started. She has a talent to be an agitator.


    It is difficult to beat Sytry in a word fight. I have always been beaten since a long time ago.


    “Un, un, you are right? … But I wanted to make it a little bit easier for them.”


    Peacefully. Easily. Even if they give me a hundred step because I am in the n Master position, as it is going, I may be stabbed.


    To my words, Sytry made a dark look.


    “You are, right. As Cry-san says, they were… much more useless… than we expected. As a Hunter from the same n… It is very, embarrassing. Even more… They dare to me their own weakness on my potion!!”


    Somehowing with us, Tino casually enters the n Master Room which is off limits. She opens her eyes and look at me as if she was distraught.


    I didn’t say… I didn’t say it, I didn’t even think about it.


    Rather than weak, it is not a word uses to describe the “Footprint of the Beginning” which is known as a rising star.


    “In the first ce! If you were screaming with just that… What about Lucia-chan!! Every day, no matter where, she charges with a smile… Thinking that Lucia-chan was in fact forced to do so… Is so pitiful… Uuuh…”


    Sytry further shout in a trembling voice. She bits her lips and her eyes start to be filled with tears.


    She is like a tragic heroine. This is some excessive acting.


    When she hit my weak spot, I decide to shut my mouth.


    I don’t really remember doing this. If I say that, I will probably pour more oil in the fire.


    Tino’s line of sight go down one more step, it is as if she isn’t being looked as a person. It was a bad case of misunderstanding.


    … Sytry isn’t telling a lie but there are times when her expressions are overkill.


    “For the time being, let’s stop with that topic.”


    “Well, you are right. I obtain some good data… Let’s think about what to do for the remaining Relics.”


    Sytry quickly stops her fake cry and wipes her tears and starts to think about the next thing to do.


    On the contrary, Tino’s expression cramps up.


    I am used to it so I don’t think about it anymore but Tino may have been really lucky that Sytry didn’t be her Teacher.


    “Well, well, I have a little more extra room now with those 『Safe Ring (Barrier Finger) 』. So, I wonder if we should wait for Lucia toe back…


    Including the unused one, the remaining one is eight. The maximum I have is seventeen so, I have half of them charged up.


    『Tower of Akasha』, the problem I was afraid of was resolved. If I take extreme care, it should be manageable if I don’t approach dangerous ce.


    Above all, at this pace, if the damage spreads, it is likely that I will be crushed by guilt (Although Lucia has no choice but to put up with it).


    “It may be good to use a service provider for the rest. There are some ces who will keep their mouth shut. I can also get new data. I will pay for it.”


    Sytry hit her hand and says in a smile.


    Aren’t you taking too much data? What are you going to do with that much data?


    At that time, Tino who has shrunk because of Sytry’s word, shouts as if she had decided something.


    “… Ano, Master! If, if you like it, I… can help…”


    Sytry eyes rounds up and looks at Tino. It is unexpected even for me.


    “… Eh? To charge?”


    From the fallen Mages, there are some who has a higher-level certification than Tino.


    After seeing those people vomiting and losing consciousness. Although it is for her Teacher’s best friend to say such a thing, what kind of gut do you have. It only seems like she is trying too hard.


    It might be because she is a Hunter, but I don’t want to see my Kouhai puking…


    With a terrified footstep, Tino walks to Sytry, as she approaches my desk, she opens both of her hands and cries with teary eyes.


    “I, I am also, a Hunter too, Master! I don’t have magic power but what you need is, mental strength then… I can endure it!”


    I think it is probably not possible.


    I heard that the taste of magic medicine is difficult to describe. The Mages who should be used to it are like that.


    No matter how often you are treated by Liz and has an unusual mental power, there must be a limit.


    “No, I am happy for your feeling, but you don’t have to do it. It is not Tino’s job.”


    “No way…, please let me do it! Master! I can do it too!”


    “Eeeh!?” <h4>TL notes:</h4>


    Thank you for reading.


    More n exnation in the beginning


    So Cry really unknowingly forced his sister to do that magic charge and he ns to keep doing it. XD


    And Tino really loves Cry to do all that despite knowing how she will end up, respect.


    Ok, Tchao à plus!


    Give a hundred step: It means the members will ignore his action because he is the n Master. But there is still a limit.


    Ano: simr to English “er” or “umm”, said when hesitating in speech. From wikitionary.


    Kouhai: It can mean a junior or a subordinate.
