Greatest Alchemist? Chapter 103

103: The Heroes are Misguided Brats

When we finally arrived at the royal capital, we separated from the merchant unit and headed to the Adventurers Guild to submit the proof of request completion.

「Congratulations. Takumi-sama and Sophia-san have ranked up to A rank, Maria-san to B rank, Laeva-san to C rank, and Marnie-san to D rank. Please look after your guild cards.」

「Thank you.」

Receiving the reward for the escort request, our guild cards were updated and we were congratulated. Then, when we moved to the check the request board, it happened.

The area around the guild’s entrance got noisy, and when I turned to look, young people with black hair and eyes wearing flashy silver and sparkly armor, entered the guild with their attendants. Not wanting to get involved, I walked towards the request board, and Sophia and the girls followed.

To come across them in a place like this, how unlucky of us. Those two boys and one girl are unmistakably Japanese. Yes, the heroes summoned by Sydnia.

「Oi, look! It’s an elf! Amazing!」

Ooh! Akira, there’s rabbit ears and fox ears over there!」

They talked in loud voices and I could hear their footsteps coming closer.

Ah, these guys are no good.

「Oi! You over there!」

Haa, so troublesome. As someone who had been dragged into their hero summoning and essentially dying, I don’t remember being called “you”.

「What do you think you’re doing ignoring me!?」

Haa~, can I help you?」

I looked in the direction of the fool who addresses another in a manner that’s too loud and oppressive.

「You’ve got some fine women with you, don’tcha? I’ll buy them from you.」

「That’s right! We’ll buy your slaves.」

「I refuse. Well then, if that is all then please excuse us.」

It’s gotten troublesome so I signaled to the girls with my eyes that we’re leaving the guild.

「I told you to wait, didn’t I!? Don’t think you can get away scot-free if you defy us! Be quiet and sell those girls to us!」

「That’s right! If you don’t want to get hurt, then do as we say!」

「You guys! Stop it! Have you gone mad?! Don’t disgrace yourselves acting like this!」

「Shut up! Akane, you keep quiet! Fine jewels like these are hard to find even in Sydnia. They’ll be happier being our slaves than with that guy!」

The girl told the idiot duo blurting out thug-like lines to stop, but the two smiled vulgarly. It hasn’t even been a year since these guys were summoned to Mildgard, so what happened to make these boys like this? One is handsome and the other looks like a cool athlete, however, their faces that were probably popular in Japan have completely changed to evil ones.

「Thank you very much, but we do not wish to be separated from our master.」

Sophia’s cold eyes aimed at the boys, as she said it clearly. While glaring at them with similarly cold eyes, Maria, Laeva, and Marnie nodded.

「Well, that’s how it is, so please excuse us.」

When we said that and passed the boys, one of them got violent.

「Don’t go disobeying me!」

Shouting so, he drew the resplendent sword on his hip, targeting me.

Bam!

This guy, not hesitating like Japanese would, came at me with intent to kill. That had truly surprised me, but with my current self that had improved my passive skills like Insight, it wasn’t a surprise attack at all. He was too slow to draw his sword and I had more than enough room to deal with it.

I struck the flat of the sword and invoked 『Decomposition』 on it. The next instant, the expensive-looking sword broke right in half from base.

Gacha!

「Ugh!」

I avoided the short haired youth attacking from my blind spot, throwing him down at the same time.

「Wha?! My holy sword!」

Guh, you bastaaaard……」

No, that wasn’t a holy sword, right?

I analyzed it when I used decomposition, and I found out it was just a magic iron sword.

「Y, YOU! What did you do! To defy the heroes of Sydnia, don’t think you’re ………」

The young man couldn’t continue his sentence.

Surrounded by adventurers in the guild, he received the blood thirst of many.

「Do you know the meaning when you draw your sword and attack someone in the Adventurers Guild?」

Having reasonably lost my cool, I glared at the boys with a bit of blood thirst.

「You might be something at Sydnia, but the Adventurers Guild is an independent organization in the continent! You might be some church official, but you’re turning all of us into enemies, yeah?!」

「Ou! You drew your sword in the Adventurers Guild! Bastard, you won’t complain even if we hand over to the garrison, won’t ya?!」

「Moreover, you must be wrong in the head to pick a fight with the A rank leader of 『Wings of Norn』!」

The surrounding adventurers hurled angry shouts at the boys.

Tch! Don’t think you’re getting away with going against the Light God Faith!」

The two boys and their attendants left the Adventurers Guild to escape.

「Everyone, my apologies.」

The girl left behind and her Catkin girl attendant apologized.

「No, you don’t have to apologize.」

When I said that, maybe the anger of the surrounding adventurers lessened as they dispersed, going to the bar or the request board. When we started heading out of the guild, the girl called out to us.

「Umm, may I please have your name? I am Akane Misato.」

「 Leader of the 『Wings of Norn』, Takumi Iruma.」

「!!」

Surprised to hear my name, I gestured with my index finger to my lips before she could raise her voice.

「If you need me for something, we plan to stay at the Lakeside Hotel so, do it then.」

I said that to the girl and left the guild.

Arriving at the royal capital of Valkyra Kingdom, we were captivated when we saw the magical spectacle of the castle seemingly floating on the lake. Afterwards, we went to the Light God Church to give our greetings, then Akira and Yamato started talking about wanting to explore the town. It would be a source of trouble if the two went alone, so Lulu and I went out to town with them.

The royal capital of Valkyra Kingdom was very clean. I couldn’t smell the awful stench that has been tormenting me since coming to this world. I heard this country began popularizing the Purifier MD.

Akira and Yamato said they wanted to go to the Adventurers Guild. That reeks only of trouble. Sure enough, the two were guilty of it as soon as they entered the guild.

「Oi, look! It’s an elf! Amazing!」

Ooh! Akira, there’s rabbit ears and fox ears over there!」

There, a well featured silver-haired young man, a peerless beauty of an elf the likes that can’t be seen on earth, a red-haired beautiful girl, a Foxkin beautiful girl, and a voluptuous Rabbitkin beauty could be found.

After that, the idiot duo had been awful. That’s because he suddenly drew a sword and slashed at someone. Nevertheless, the silver haired young man, I don’t know what he did, but Akira’s sword was destroyed. He even threw down Yamato, who took a swing, easily. The idiot duo were enraged, but they turned meek when they noticed the seething adventurers in the immediate area had surrounded them.

When the idiot duo gave a parting threat and stormed out of the guild, I apologized to the silver haired young man.

There, I introduced myself and he also gave his name, but I almost exclaimed in my surprise.

Takumi Iruma. His appearance had no Japanese traits, but he had a Japanese name I’ve never heard elsewhere in this world. They were apparently staying at the high class inn, Lakeside Hotel. I decided to sneak away from the church and meet him. My Divine Oracle skill supported me on this.

TAMA-MII

Nice move takumi, i’m satisfied.

Logan

Ooooh we finally getting to her joining up? Can’t wait.

Philip

[But the silver haired] -> {Nevertheless/However the silver haired} ~ ‘but’ is used again in the same phrase

Well, that was fast. I was expecting more delays before the meeting, but I was pleasantly surprised. This makes me excited about what follows after.
Thanks for the chapter! Awesome translation! God bless you!

nusan_walen

honestly i also thought that we would need to wait more and god bless you

Zero

Not that surprising, the last chapter triggerd the flags for them to try to take Takumi’s slaves, so it was to be expected to happen anytime now. Also Norn bless you.

Miserys_End

Cheers for the chapter, and all your hard work! Tbh I’m actually kind of surprised at how rushed this meeting with the heroes feels. It’s like those chapters that precedes the lunge to the end of the story before being cancelled… so much so I had to recheck the NU novel page only to find 600+ chapters left. Oh well, looks like we’ll have an arc or three where this dynamic duo of dipshits will bark and cause troubles for the MC and his party. That being said, I wonder if Takumi actually timed his meeting with the summoned heroes… Read more »

Philip

I don’t think Takumi “made” this coincidental meeting, a more likely culprit is whoever is that oracle-like skill of the female hero. Got to keep in mind that Takumi only knew that heroes were summoned from Japan like him, and maybe that they were three, thus their genders, personalities and objectives, very unlikely. Wanting to meet potentially dangerous individuals, not his style.

This novel needs a multiple POV warning. :/

Snookims

What happened to Akita have a strong sense of justice? Cause he is acting like a fool.

Wraith

After Akira got upset about his “holy sword”, I would’ve laughed at him and made him a spectacle for thinking that a magic iron sword is something special, when it’s literally the bare minimum for fighting demons. The adventurers would go from anger for drawing his sword and attacking in the guild, to mocking pity for not knowing anything about anything.
