“This is a newspaper.”
When we entered the newspaper building, I saw a newspaper that had just been published in what appeared to be a lobby. It seems that anyone can read it, so picked it up and look at its contents.
“It’s true that it’s all text, there are some pictures on some parts though. As for the contents, let’s see, let’s see. Eh? ——A mysterious object flying object in the sky was seen! Is it perhaps an ancient airship? ——An A-Rank Adventurer Party finally heads in the Tower of the Great Sage! They achieved the world’s first feat. ——A popular beach was hit by a mass outbreak of sea monsters for an unknown cause. Local fishermen laments that they can no longer go fishing.”
These information sounds familiar…..
“Uhm, there are also others. —The Martial Arts Tournament of the Hero Festival will be held again this year. There are more applicants than ever before.”
Hero Festival?
“Let’s see… Mmmm, it seems to be a festival that takes place every year at this time in this country, and it says that tourists come from all over the world to honor the legendary hero Leon. I see, that long line earlier was because of that.”
As I read the article further, we came to know that a martial arts tournament has been held at this hero festival for several years now. Skilled players from all over the world could compete, and the winner is given the title of “Hero”.
“If you win, you will called a hero?”
“Isn’t that amazing!?”
Fana and Anje’s eyes lit up.
“Moreover, it says that you will be presented with the armor that the heroes of that time were equipped with. But, can they really give out such a precious thing?”
“Mmm, I have to go.”
“That’s right. My warrior blood is boiling!”
Somehow, both of them are full of enthusiasm. But Meltera shook her head from side to side.
“No. I’m sorry, but we don’t have time for that. We need to get to the next site right away be—”
“Oh, Meltera-sama, you’re back!”
Suddenly, I heard a cheerful voice, and when I turned around, there was a woman with a cheerful expression dressed in tight clothes.
“Matilua-sama. We have solved the mass outbreak of monsters.”
The woman, who was called Matilua, was apparently a reporter for this newspaper.
“Really? I want you to tell me more!”
While concealing the fact that it was a taboo item, Meltera talks about the vortex that was in the depths of the undersea temple.
“So that’s how it went.”
“I see! The cause of the sudden outbreak of sea monsters is a mysterious vortex that creates monsters! Thanks to the effort of our A-rank adventurers, peace has returned to the seaside! But the mystery remains. What exactly is that vortex? What on earth is the nature of that vortex?”
Though left with questions, Matilua is still happy to be able to get the latest information.
“Thanks to Meltera-sama, we have good news!”
“No, no, thank you also for giving me such information. By the way, has there been any other interesting cases like that?”
The newspaper is said to be published weekly, that is, only once a week. Therefore, if we wait for the newspaper to be released, there will inevitably be a time lag. I don’t know how they met, but it seems that Meltera got her information directly from Matilua, a reporter.
“You’ve just come back from solving the case, but you’re already gearing up for a new work? I don’t know the details of the situation, but you shouldn’t overdo it, you know?”
“I got young body, so I don’t mind being a little overwhelmed.”
“That’s another reason. You’re a little too young, you know.”
Matilua smiled wryly, and then she said,
“Hmm~, let’s see…… I don’t think there’s anything that Meltera-sama would want at the moment.”
“Is that so?”
“Yes. By the way…… I haven’t seen these people around here before.”
It was only then that Matilua’s attention turned to us.
“They are also A-rank adventurers, and it is actually mostly thanks to them that we were able to solve this case.”
“That’s amazing! All of you are A-rank adventurers huh. You’re all very young too! …… Wait, what about this baby?”
“I’m also an A-rank adventurer Oneesan.”
“Ahhhhhh! The baby spoke!”
Meltera has been talking for a while now too you know.
