The Strongest Hunter Who Was Not Allowed To Hunt Monsters Joined a Cooking Guild - Chapter 44

Pamela’s parents were killed by a skill holder.

He lived in the inn “Estrona” Bounty hunter So, he was familiar with Pamela’s parents. At that time, his job didn’t go well, and Pamela’s parents were consulting, but one day he suddenly attacked the couple and ran away with the money in the store.

Shortly after being caught, the problem was that Pamela witnessed the moment of the murder.

Yes. Maneuver skill, And the appearance of being killed miserably …….

After that, Pamela recovered mentally and took over the “Estrona” that her parents loved.She Was often nervous around skill holders.

By the age of 15 when she was an adult, she would go to the temple and wish for skills, However, there was a reason why Pamela didn’t have either at the age of 18.

“Is it really good, Pamela?”

“Yes”

And now, Pamela and I were standing in front of a temple in the city.

All around me are young children.

The minimum age to get a skill is from 10 years old.

Most parents say “Maneuver skill” or “magic Runes” holders need to learn it quickly and develop its talent. Therefore, most of them sent them to the temple as soon as they were 10 years old.

Pamela’s parents and others seem to have forgotten because they worked without time to go to the temple. Pamela herself wasn’t very interested in it, and she didn’t beg for her busy parents.

We were exposed to strange eyes because there were only children around us.

Pamela answers the question with a bitter smile.

“It’s been three years since my dad and mom are gone. I’ve finally been able to sort things out. Now I know …Maneuver skill Is not bad. The bad thing is the one who uses it? “

“Really……”

“It was Zelet that made me think so.”

“me?”

“I witnessed you hunting monsters using  the skill. “I’m supposed to use it like this.”

“…Skills are not the power to hurt people. It’s a technology to protect people and protect people’s lives. “

“Good words”

“It’s my master’s saying”

“Fufu … I thought it was.”

“Why did you think?”

“Something I like”

“got it”

“Fufufu …”

Pamela begins to laugh. I made my body into a dogleg and made a light voice.

I thought it was impossible, but it’s the usual Pamela.

Don’t you worry about this?

But Pamela’s psychological state is not the only problem.

Pamela said,Maneuver skill, But not everyone wants it.

The skill Can only be understood after being given. In other words, it’s completely random.

There is no predictable factor there. It doesn’t matter if it’s a man, a woman, a birthday month, or a genetic one.

The answer to that choice is up to God.

“Thank you for accompanying me, Zelet”

“Thank you … Pamela —“

“You don’t have to say anything, I know. It’s okay even if it is magic runes, I will accept it. “

“Really”

“Zelet, go back first. That … I don’t want to cry if I get the undesired result. I don’t want Zelett to see my crying face anymore.”

“OK. If Pamela says so, I’ll obey.”

“Instead, if you get good results, I’ll make a treat. Expect it.”

“Usually the opposite … well, okay. Let’s get you done.”

And I and Pamela split up there.

Pamela finally waved and disappeared into the temple.

◆ ◇ ◆ ◇ ◆ Pamela perspective ◆ ◇ ◆ ◇ ◆

“Pamela Estrona …”

My name echoed in the chalk temple.

Going forward, a fine bearded priestess stands on the platform.

When I started explaining the fixed phrases and accepted all of them, I was urged to stand in front of the “Stone of God”.

I’ve known for a long time that there is a “God’s stone”, but it’s different from the image. It’s just a rugged stone that looks like it’s falling on the riverside. I thought it was more like a jewel.

“Raise your hand there. Then you should hear God’s revelation. I can’t hear it, so please tell me what you heard.”

As I was told, I held my hand over.

Even though I just held it up, something was warm. I feel the invisible power coming into me.

Is this magical power? I wasn’t particularly scared to think that this was always swirling in Zelet’s body.

Eventually, the stones begin to shine.

No, it’s a little different.

The world I see is painted white. By the time I noticed, I was standing in an empty space.

The sky is a little bright.

Then suddenly a voice came down.

It’s a word I don’t understand. It just echoes in my head as if I were singing it over and over again. Eventually my head hurt and I got sick.

“Is it OK?”

Hearing the voice of the chief priest, I stand up. By the time I noticed, I was back in the original temple. So I tell the chief priest what I heard in the white world.

The chief priest took out a large book, flipped it over, and instantly frowned.

“What?”

I became anxious. When I endured the feeling of wanting to escape from this place, the face of the chief priest finally collapsed.

“Listen carefully, Pamela Estrona”

“Yes …”

I involuntarily put my heels together and stand upright.

“The power of God given to you —“

At that moment, I joined hands to pray.

◆ ◇ ◆ ◇ ◆ Zelet viewpoint ◆ ◇ ◆ ◇ ◆

” Magic Runes was it……”

Pamela, who returned to the inn “Estrona”, announced the result.

Fortunately, Pamela is strong.

I thought it would be like when she lost her parents, but she has been doing the work of the inn she left behind and preparing for dinner.

Today is curry It seems.

It is a common dish that is eaten by adding carrots, potatoes, onions, meat, etc. to medicinal herbs with several kinds of spices and sprinkling them on white rice or barley rice.

Each household has a roux made from medicinal herbs, which is a simple dish that can be made by putting it in boiling water. He is also an ally of busy housewives.

The scent of fragrant spices spread beyond the kitchen to the inn’s dining room, and Lil and Prim drooled beside me, waiting for me.

“Pamela, still ~”

“Wow ~”

“Yes, yes. Wait a minute. You don’t know that I’m injured, you guys.”

Pamela was laughing.

However, as a childhood friend, I understand. She’s a little overwhelmed. Painfully.

“Don’t overdo it, Pamela”

The movement of the ladle that was stirring the stir stops.

“I wonder if that …Maneuver Skill, I wonder if I was hated by it. It can’t be helped. I’ve been resenting it all the time. “

“The skill Is completely random. Not because you were resentful. “

“I know …. But I’m going to dismantle the monster. I was thinking of helping Zelet.”

“I told you before.You can dismantle the monsters without it. “

“Yes, thank you”

With that said, Pamela took off her apron.

She stops the fire of the kamado.

“I’m done …. And you all eat. I’m a little tired. I’ll take a rest first.”

“Wait. Pamela”

I tried to stop her, but the inn knocker was ringing.

However, it doesn’t seem to be heard by Pamela who has already gone upstairs.

I had no choice but to go out to deal with it. It’s already night outside. Is it a guest of “Estrona” that he came back at such a time?

When I opened the door, I saw a man in priesthood clothes.

“Is this the inn of Pamela Estrona?”

“That’s right … You’re a temple employee.”

“Oh. I want to ask Pamela Estrona to act as an intercessor.”

I glance at the stairs leading up to the second floor.

“She’s in a situation where she can’t visit right now.”

“You are?”

“I’m like a family …”

“Well, then give this to her. The moment I heard what she said, I jumped out. “

Did that happen?

It seems that he was more shocked than expected.

The temple staff gave me a letter.

After handing it over, the temple staff left the inn. I was lost in the darkness of the night.

I’m curious and opened the letter. When I saw what was written there, I took a breath.

The next morning ――――.

“Wow … I slept a little too much. My body is a little heavy …. I don’t feel like making breakfast. Was yesterday’s curry still left? “

“I don’t need it. I made it here.”

I called Pamela who came to the cafeteria.

Pamela instinctively sat down to see not only me but also Rir and Prim.

“What’s wrong, Zelet? Aside from Rir, even Prim-san? And that looks good …”

Pamela points to my appearance.

I was already fully equipped, wearing a black robe with a high collar and a fingerless glove on his hand.

“Maybe you’re going to work?”

“Speaking of work, it’s time. Let’s go, Pamela. Just eat the egg sandwich there and get ready to go out.”

I point to the egg sandwich on the desk.

Already, the portion for the residents living in this inn was prepared.

“But where are you going out?”

“It’s a forest”

“A forest?”

To Pamela, who leans her head, I showed the letter given by the temple staff yesterday.

Looking at the contents, Pamela’s puffy eyes open wide.

“What’s this … Isn’t it a lie? I —-“

”Elemental……! ??”

“Pamela …”

“Yes”

I stare at Pamela.

Pamela, on the other hand, reflexively squeezed the letter.

“I need your power”

…… Let me hire you.
