h.e.l.lo, Plenou here. My wrist is better now. I have so much things to catch up. Xen.o.blade Chronicle 2, Mario Odyssey, Breath of the Wild, and other game events. Well, it won’t affect the translation speed though since I spend most of my time doing homework during the weekday. Here’s the engrish translation of chapter 34.

34th Meal The One Who is Feared

“Hahaha, it’s been a while, have you guys been doing well ~?”

Finis.h.i.+ng his vacation, Alp-ossan-sensei has came back.

Some of the students raised complaints.

Of course, the reason is that Stilva-sensei will no longer be our homeroom teacher.

Well, from now on we'll be taking cla.s.ses regarding weapons, so it's not like we won't be able to meet again.

It is too bad that I won't be able to look forward to seeing her breast and a.s.s everyday.

Well …… saying this and that won't change anything, so the students eventually became quiet.

It was mostly the male students that were complaining, but I was surprised that some of the female students were also complaining.

After all, eroticism is great! I know it for sure now! ! (Conviction)

Well, let's put that aside… … Our cla.s.s seems to have many excellent students, so we've graduated from hunting Butch Rabi to hunting boars.

“Unlike Butchi Rabi, it’s quite tough – make sure you're prepared!”

Under the command of Alp-ossan-sensei, we headed towards the hill where the boars are.

Today will be “Botan nabe” … …

(T.N. Botan Nabe is a j.a.panese hot pot made with meat from wild boars)

Ah… … nabe is good. The boiling vegetable and juicy meat with the sake at the end!

(T.N. This sentence was a tongue twister, there were so many t’s.)

It is especially the best during a cold day.

It warms both your body and mind.

For nabe, coldness is one of the essential factor.

My party members that surround me as we walk.

Someday… … I hope we can all eat nabe together while drinking.

We're finally here! The top of the hill ! !

This is amazing! I can see all of the royal capital Philimichia!

I am a little excited.

That is because the scenery that can be seen from here is more than what I imagined.

Unexpectedly, I suddenly remembered that forest.

It was the strange edible forest where I was at the beginning.

Is this … … what's known as homesick?

From here I could not see that forest.

I feel a little disappointed, but it can't be helped.

“Now that I think about it, I've came a long way … …”

It’s been a year and a few months since I've left the forest.

Various things have happened  … …

Oops, instead of thinking about all of that, Butan Nabe… … More importantly, boar hunt!!

"This time we will be properly distributing our role as vanguard and rearguard before the hunt! The quota is one boar."

Bas.h.i.+n! Rioto b.u.mped his fist together.

(T.N. Probably sound of metal hitting metal. Rioto might be wearing gauntlets.)

"Rai, Hi and I will be the vanguard! The rearguard will be El and Linda! Fol will be guarding the rearguard!"         

“Leave it to me and it'll be fine.”

As expected of Ganzurok.

As the pillar of the party, he is a reliable existence.

And with that, we quickly began the hunt.

This time, our target is "Hillboar," a wild boar that lives on a hill.

Its name is literally what it is.

Although it isn't as bad as Butch Rabi, but when they can't find enough food, they go down the hill and vandalize the fields. So, if we don't hunt it regularly, it will cause some damage.

“Found it … … over there.”

There was a Hillboar on the hill pointed to by Hilitia.

It doesn't seem to realize us yet.

"Yos.h.i.+… … I'll charge in from the front, Rai go in from the right, Hi go in from the left! Rearguards, stay back and support Rai when needed."

The battle is finally about to begin.

Well, I’m just watching though!

If I use attack magic in a party fight, it will be catastrophic! ! (s.h.i.+vering voice)

However, if they’re in danger, I should be allowed to secretly use heal.

“Here we go!!”

Ganzurok charged at the Hillboar while shouting.

Rioto and Hilitia attacked from the sides in waves.

It is perfect …… while I was thinking that …

A huge “something” suddenly appeared there.

Overwhelming, overwhelming … … with a sense of intimidation.

It fell directly on top of the Hillboar.

And with that ma.s.sive body, the Hillboar immediately died.

A large amount of blood and meat pieces splashed around.

The smell of  the blood and meat entered my nostril.

"Dr… … It's a dragon!!"

Ganzurok has stopped moving as if he was stuck.

A huge dragon with golden scales suddenly fell right in front of us.

It can't be helped to be surprised.

I was also frozen in place while saying "Faa!?" in a stupid voice.

Everyone else was in a similar situation and is completely still.

That dragon …… it is way too big.

Six horns, golden scales covering the body, and extraordinarily developed limbs.

The golden dragon turned towards me and lowered its posture.

However, it didn't suddenly jump towards us.

We shuddered.

To its overwhelmingly large body, overwhelming intimidation, and overwhelming killing intent … ….! !

“Kyaaaaaa!!”

Unable to bear the fear anymore, Linda screamed.

That served as a trigger and it started moving.

An overwhelming predator set its aim at me and headed towards me! !

“Gouh!?”

Ganzurok, unable to cope with the charge was blown away.

He was blown into a boulder and splattered blood from his mouth.

Still the dragon's momentum did not decrease.

Without even caring for others, the golden dragon charge towards me! !

Hey … … why is it after me!?

Is it because I look tasty?　

… … … Uoo! No thank you! !

I forcibly move my cells that are frozen with fear and tried to avoid urgently by running across the field.

Kaschu! !

A huge mouth that looks like it can even cut s.p.a.ce.

There are countless sharp teeth lined up in its mouth.

If I'm bitten by such a thing, I'll instantly die!

“You guys, escape! Tell Alp-ossan-sensei about this thing … … Ahh!?”

A bite again ! ? This time it was also pretty close! !

As I thought, this guy only aims at me!

What does it mean! ?

“El!”

“f.u.kyun!?”

Rioto lift me up and ran.

“Rioto!? The aim of that dragon’s me! I don't know the reason, but you will also be eaten if you're with me! Leave me behind!”

“Idiot! Didn't I tell you that I would protect you!? Even though you're slow, don't be so c.o.c.ky! ”

Rioto was running in the opposite direction of everyone else.

But, as he's holding me, his speed isn't as fast as usual.

“Hilitia! Go tell Alphonse-sensei !!”

“Rioto ……! Folbert! I leave Ganzurok to you !!”

In order to convey what's happening, she ran off with all her might.

I was only able to see that figure while being carried by Rioto.

(T.N. Perspective change to Rioto)

“Ehehehe! It became an interesting situation!”

“It’s not interestingggggggggg !!”

Right now, I'm carrying a screaming tiny white elf, Eltina in my arms and is running away from the dragon that suddenly struck.

No matter how light she is, there is a limit to running while carrying a person.

But … I can't give up.

The aim of the dragon is …… for some reason, Eltina.

Even though Ganzurok was in front of him, it didn't even look at him and went straight towards El!

I've been managing to somehow miraculously dodge the attacks , but … I do not think that miracles will happen that many times.

Leaving that aside, white elves have low physical abilities.

Because of that, El's athletic ability isn't that good ….

“Ha … … Ha … … over here! You enormous b.a.s.t.a.r.d !! If you are angry try to catch me!”

” Its reckless! Put me down! You'll die !”

El says that as usual, but I ignored it.

I don't have the option of sacrificing El to save my own life.

"d.a.m.n it… … if I at least have half the speed of Rai, I'll be able to handle this guy myself!"

“El, even if you have half my speed, you won't be able to handle it… oops!!""

I jumped sideways to avoid the dragon's biting attack at the last moment.

…… That was pretty dangerous.

That was the proof that my stamina is reaching the limit.

If I don't somehow lose this guy, both of us will get killed!

“That’s … …! It’s a forest !!”

I saw a thick forest in sight!

If it’s the forest, we can hide while escaping! !

I rushed into the forest with all my strength.

Hoping for a way to survive  … ….

“Sensei!”

Finally, I found Alphonse-sensei.

Alphonse-sensei was surprised to see me who was all tattered.

I was tattered because on my way here, I tripped on my own legs many time and fell.

My body doesn't listen to what I tell it to do, I can't stop my trembling

This is the first time.

“What … What happened?” For a person like you, did you get beat by a Hillboar? ”

Alphonse-sensei rushed over to treat my wounds.

But that’s not it.

At this rate, El… and Rioto who ran off bravely to protect El will die! !

“Sensei … help …… everyone, El … Rai … … !”

My emotions are disturbed and I can't speak well … …! !

Calm down……! I have to quickly tell him! !

“Calm down …… Hilitia, please slowly tell me.”

Noticing my emotional disturbance, Alphonse-sensei's low-gentle voice calmed me down.

It’s okay, now I can properly tell him …! !

"While hunting… Hillboar, with everyone … … then suddenly from the top … … a dragon!!"

Dragon… when the word left my mouth, the fear that I've felt suddenly revived.

Scary! I’m scared! ! Until today … … I’ve never felt so much fear ! !

Why in that situation … El was able dodge! ?

Why in that situation … Rai was able to move! ?

… … Shameful! Shameful! ! Shameful! !

Even though I told her that I would protect her … I couldn't even do anything! !

Tears naturally overflowed.

It is regrettable! I’m regrettable ….! !

“You did well … … telling me! Hilitia, you've done a great job!”

Sensei grabbed my shoulder and praised me.

why……?

“I am going to protect the two of them! Prince Edward! I leave this place to you!”

Leave the place behind to Edward-sama, Alphonse-sensei wears the wind and starts to run.

And, at an unbelievable speed his figure began to go further away.

“You've done well … let’s leave the rest to Alphonse-sensei.”

Edward patted my back.

All my strength left my body and …. I crumble to the floor like that.

Please … … Please, be safe …!! !

I could only pray for the safety for both of them … ….
