Chapter 230 Strange Freak

Part 2

It was inevitable that Kryhi Andrichhi, who from an early age displayed qualities of a hero, would aspire to become a Hunter.

When he noticed it, he was already admiring them, and by the time he realized it, the adults around him had no doubt that Kryhi would become big as a Treasure Hunter.

Although his body didn’t grow as large as he wanted, Kryhi had a remarkable fighting sense and powerful magical qualities that were unbelievable for a human.

Above all else――He had a high Mana Material absorption rate and high retention capacity of it, something which was essential for Treasure Hunters.

And finally――As if guided by fate, Kryhi became a Treasure Hunter.

However, even with his abilities that could be said to be blessed by gods, Treasure Shrines were formidable foes.

After leaving his hometown, what awaited Kryhi was a thorny path.

He was crazy about them. He conquered numerous Treasure Shrines. He studied them. He nearly lost his life multiple times and he had also been targeted by criminal organizations.

He had no room to spare. He couldn’t afford to sleep. All those trials were a test sent by the gods for Kryhi Andrichhi, and overcoming those trials brought joy to him.

And the next thing he knew――Kryhi’s name was roaring through thousands of kilometers.

Level 8 (Or with abilities seemingly at that level), Kryhi Andrichhi, the 《Infinite Sky Flowers (Senten Banka)》 .

He hasn’t received an Alias yet. However, many Hunters know about Kryhi’s name.

He was proud of the fact that he could declare his alias dignifiedly. Treasure Hunters’ Alias is normally decided by the Explorer Association, but he wouldn’t have been able to stand it if they chose a lame Alias.

《Infinite Sky Flowers (Senten Banka)》. Traveling through thousands of sky and shining out like ten thousand flowers. The ideal for Kryhi, for a Treasure Hunter.

Sometimes his name was mistakenly remembered, but such matters were trivial.

Finally, Kryhi even earned the right to participate in the Supreme Martial Arts Festival.

He could feel all of it.

The current rumors about Kryhi have been overblown. Kryhi is not yet Level 8, does not yet have an Alias, has not yet destroyed a huge criminal organization without doing anything, or turned a flower garden into a Treasure Shrine.

However, those rumors were surely a manifestation of their expectations of him.

Kryhi Andrichhi can finally surpass the rumors by going above it, by winning the Supreme Martial Arts Festival.

The contestants are probably very strong opponents. Many of them have probably been climbing the stair of martial arts long before Kryhi.

However, Kryhi’s current condition was better than ever.

I can do it. I am sure that my current abilities are comparable to a Level 8.

Moreover, Kryhi has companions with him. Precious companions who agreed with Kryhi’s ideals and followed him, who was initially a solo.

Although he cannot fight in the Supreme Martial Arts Festival with his companions, just the fact that his companions are here gives Kryhi strength.

He even made a Party. He was surprised when they said they wanted to name the Party 《Strange Freak (Nageki no Akuryo)》 and when they wanted to have a mask as their symbol, but Kryhi has the capacity to listen to his companions’ opinions.

“Heyyy, isn’t it bad? What are we going to do, Kool? No way, we’ll be able to beat the real thing, you know? Especially, me.” (Elizabeth)

“Mumu…… This is indeed bad. I didn’t expect the real one to show up……” (Kool)

In an inn they rented as their base during the Supreme Martial Arts Festival. In the living room, the Party Members of 《Strange Freak (Nageki no Akuryo)》, Elizabeth Smyart, the 《Great View (Zeikei)》 and Kool Saiko, 《Foresight (Senken)》 were consulting with each other with serious expressions on their faces.

Elizabeth Smyart is a “Thief (Tozoku)”.? She has dazzling fluorescent pink hair and an outfit that almost makes her seem like an exhibitionist. What is the most striking is her large, big breasts.? It seems that her Alias of 《Great View (Zeikei)》 comes from there as well. It was an Alias that only someone stupid could come up with, and sometimes she says very cunning things, but her skill as a Thief isn’t bad.

Kool Saiko is the brain of the Party. He wears glasses, his particularity is that he always speaks in honorifics, and for some reason, he calls himself a swordsman, although he has apparently never swung a sword.

Although he is almost useless in battle, the fact that Kryhi, who has not been trained as a Leader, was able to form a party and smoothly lead it to this point was due to his 《Foresight (Senken)》.

As for the other members, there are a few strange things about them, but they are irreplaceable companions for Kryhi, who has always been a solo.

“Because except for Kryhi, our Party is only composed of small players.” (Kool)

“Well, yeahh…… If it weren’t for that they wouldn’t call me 『Zuri』.” (Elizabeth)

“!! It is not true!” (Kryhi)

Kryhi intervened unexpectedly at the words he couldn’t let slide.

Although it started with just a coincidence, both of them are already Members of this Party.

Although he always tells them again and again, low self-esteem is a weakness of Kryhi’s Party Members.

“Kool, Zuri. Without you, I wouldn’t have been able to be on this big stage so early.? I’m grateful to you.” (Kryhi)

Said Kryhi with a serious face, and Zuri makes a drawn expression. Kool also has a troubled look on his face.

“Why…… Is this guy so strong…… To think he will really be able to participate in the Supreme Martial Arts Festival――” (Kool)

“Well, yeahh………… It’s because he’s been fighting and surviving all by himself, and………… He’s the only one who isn’t posing.” (Elizabeth)

That’s right. It doesn’t matter who they are. No matter who my opponent is, I won’t lose. Come at me!

I will turn it around.

I will show that I can make not only my name but also the name of 《Strange Freak (Nageki no Akuryo)》 known to the world. That is another one of my dreams now.

When Kryhi renew his resolve, he turned his eyes that were burning quietly out the window.

The city was gradually becoming more and more lively in anticipation of the Supreme Martial Arts Festival. Then? Kryhi suddenly thought.

Come to think of it, I wonder if that young man with a name similar to mine will come to support me?

TL notes:

Thanks for reading!

Kryhi became a Hunter because fate (Cry) wanted it!

The story would have been so different if Cry had the same capabilities as Kryhi

It’s like the Tsukikage-sensei is trolling us by saying: “This is what Cry would have become if I wanted to make a story with everyone in Strange Grief as a OP character”

Tchao à plus!

Footnotes

Hahaha all this paragraph seems like a parody of One Piece like Kryhi who is a parody of CryHere Senten means 1000 sky and Banka mean 10 000 flowers, so this sentence is just Kryhi interpretation of his AliasZuri: Zuri means unfair in Japanese, but it is also how you would say Liz if you reverse the syllables.
