The Beast Tamer Exiled From the Hero’s Party and the Cat Eared Girl From the Strongest Race Meet - CH 43
Chapter 43-Hearing and Shifting Thoughts (Thunderpike Perspective)
(TL:By Rafael)
(Simon PoV)
“A protest has arrived against you Thunderpikes.”(Benwood)
The guild master tells me as he summons me to a hearing room on the third floor of the Adventurer’s Guild.
“Protest?Against us?”(Simon)
“Ya.”(Benwood)
(TL: just found about the manga they are slow and way behind so just wanted to show you Benwood)
The Guildmaster lays out four letters on his desk.
“The supporters of the protest sent in joint names, the Foresters’ Liaison Council, the Elmeria Human Rights League, and the last one from the Adventurers’ Guild Headquarters. You know what’s causing this, right?”
I do.
It’s because that sarcastic bastard Yuki has been broadcasting live.
“Clover’s attack on ‘Colorless Darkness’ got a lot of views. It’s not right to make racist remarks like that.”(Benwood)
With a big sigh, the guild master turned to me.
“What do you have to say for yourself?”(Benwood)
“It’s not that big of a deal, is it?”(Simon)
I quickly skimmed through the protest documents, all of which were about our attitude and behavior towards the Dark Elf.
It is true that the words may have been a little too much, but the fact that a C-ranked adventurer spoke out against an A-ranked adventurer should be a bigger problem.
If you’ve been watching the live feed, you’ll know that.
The first person to speak rudely to us was the dark elf, and we were just a little too hard on the rude person.
“Do you think that’s not a problem?”(Benwood)
“It was the other side that was rude first. You know for a fact that they are barbarians and traitors, don’t you?”(Simon)
The next moment, I felt a shock on my cheek and the taste of blood spread in my mouth.
It took me a few moments to realize that I had been slapped by the guild master.
“What the hell are you doing?”(Simon)
You……!You don’t seem to understand what you’ve gotten yourself into!”(Benwood)
“What’s wrong with calling that rude black elf a barbarian?”(Simon)
This time I was slapped on the other cheek.
(Write Benwood OP in the comments he did what many of you wanted to do)
“In this age when even the term “Dark Elf” is about to be eliminated, what you are saying is a big problem. There’s a danger that it will worsen the relationship between the Kingdom of Elmeria and the Elves.”(Benwood)
(TL: similar to the colour discrimination problem faced today)
The guild master’s angry voice as he pounded on the desk, intimaded me and made me shake my shoulders.
“It’s just an argument between adventurers!”(Simon)
“Didn’t I tell you when you got your A rating, ……?From now on, you’ll be held accountable for your words and actions. A-rank adventurers certified by the Kingdom of Elmeria, all together, made racist remarks referring to the elf race during a live broadcast. You have disgraced the dignity of the Kingdom of Elmeria. ……!”(Benwood)
The guildmaster’s thick arm grabbed me in the chest as if he was furious.
“You’re going to have to deliver an apology. You will also be deprived of your adventurer credentials. Depending on the ruling, you may be deported.”(Benwood)
“That’s stupd!”(Simon)
“You’re the ones who are stupid!”(Benwood)
You’re wrong.
It’s absolutely wrong!
Why should I be punished so badly because of that stupid Yuki and the barbarians around him?
Something ……. I need Something …….
That’s right!
“What about the …… court-appointed missions? Aren’t you in trouble without us?”(Simon)
The guildmaster glares at me, and I give him a little smile.
It is you who will be in …… trouble.
It would be a problem if the only people to take on “Colorless Darkness” were that C-rank party.
This is a place that until now only A-rank parties were allowed to challenge.
We applied, it was approved, and the blockade was lifted. In other words, thanks to us, the survey has been reopened.
The investigation would require a party with an A-rank adventurer credibility score, so they couldn’t leave us out now.
“No trouble at all.Clover’s already done enough for us, unlike you clowns.”(Benwood)
The guild master chuckled as he roughly lowered me into a chair.
“What did you say……!”(Simon)
I felt a darkening in front of my eyes, yet a pang in my chest.
It’s always …… why does he always do it so well?
Yuki is a humble, useless red mage and a money-grubbing alchemist.
And there’s no way that a bunch of fledgling women would be able to pull it off.
And yet, ……!
Now he’s a high-profile distributor and leader of a famous party.
He’s having a lot of success, adventuring in comfort with a young lady in tow.
During the day, he’d broadcast his silly adventures and get praise for it, and at night, he’d hold all the girls he could get his hands on.
…… Why are you so different from me?
I am supposed to be a glorified A-rank adventurer, not you!
“You’d better reflect on that and come up with an apology to deliver.”(Benwood)
◇
“Why would I do that?”(Simon)
On the way from the Adventurer’s Guild to the party house, I walked with frustration.
The people around me were looking at me coldly, and I felt as if I were a criminal or something.
The only ones to blame are Yuki and that black elf! They set us up with their delivery. They intended to provoke us from the start.
That’s what that clever little Yuki would do. They must have known what we would do when they met us.
As we walked, my thoughts organized themselves and my thoughts became clearer.
Even the kindness with which we proposed the United Alliance was readily apparent to Yuki.
He had been with us since we became adventurers until recently.
He must have predicted that we would make such a proposal.
And he deliberately let the black elf make a statement that would cause problems.
He must have known how Barry and Camilla would react when they got mad.
That’s why he didn’t turn off the delivery magic artifact when he left the dungeon.
Normally, you would end the delivery at the exit.
…… I knew it.
He was planning to trap us from the start. ……!
Yuki,I’ll never forgive you for this.
