I have Became Able to Do Anything with My Growth Cheat but I Can not Seem to Get out of Being Jobless

Chapter 192





Translator: Tseirp


Haru and I still could not hide our surprise at finally reuniting after missing each other after so long . Our swords were trembling . Thanks to that, it might have seemed to the surrounding audience that a competition of strength was going on .


(Haru, why are you here?)


(We were planning to make the pirates there let us ride their ship after this match was over . )


I see, I did consider the possibility that Haru would have reached Port Ithaca but Haru was not the type to wait until the fishing season ends . I failed to consider the possibility that she would try to somehow get to Port Kobe .


(Master too, why are you aiding the pirates?)


(They aren’t pirates, just regular fishermen . Normally, the fishing ground would be split equally like every year but this year the Port Kobe pirates voluntarily retired and so I posed as a pirate for this negotiation . )


(So that was why ― it seems like I have been lied to … Although I had already stopped trusting those people who played such petty tricks during a sacred battle like this . )


It looked like Haru didn’t look upon their act of tampering with my sword kindly .


(By the way, where is Malina?)


(Malina is on the pirate ship . )


She’s on the pirate ship huh … that means we can’t tell what the pirates might do if Haru loses . If that’s the case ― I feel a little guilty but,


(Haru, let’s continue this charade for a little longer)


( ― Understood . Although Master calls it a charade, I shall fight to the best of my ability as I have the chance to practice with Master who is stronger than me . After this is over, I will apologize in whatever manner necessary for the disloyalty of pointing my sword at Master . )


No, she’s going to fight seriously?


I wasn’t looking for some battle junkie spirit . Neither was I looking for her apology for her disloyalty .


I don’t want her to do something like splitting her stomach okay? (TL: Harakiri)


I leaped backward and grandly drew my sword up,


“Slash!”


And swung my sword down, releasing a vacuum wave like in a swashbuckler film . Haru leaned slightly to her right . Naturally, with Haru’s dynamic visual acuity as well as her agility, regardless of the armor she had on, she effortlessly dodged the slash . Although the slash was aimed at a position that would not hit her anyway .


And that vacuum wave bore into the surface of the earth and plunged into the ranks of the opposing pirates . Three of the pirates were blown away .


“Bastard, where are you aiming at!”


The pirates yelled .


“Your captain evaded it himself, it wasn’t my fault!”


I shouted back . Behind me, Hallock was laughing but jeez, at this rate, the opposing pirates will all be decimated .


Maybe we should just ignore this match and directly beat them up .


Just as I was thinking that, flames covered the blade of Haru’s dagger, the Flame Dragon’s Tooth . Immediately after that, those flames were shot from the dagger .


“Oop ―”


It was a little shocking even though it was shot at an avoidable position ― just as that thought passed through my mind, Haru rapidly approached me and released a roundhouse kick .


(I see!)


I acted as if I was blown away and leaped to my side on my own . At that spot was naturally the belly of the enemy pirate’s former captain . In other words, I just did a body blow .


“Oo, thanks for the great cushioning!”


While I said that, I added in an elbow strike on the former pirate captain who had fallen on his back . The pirate captain collapsed with foam around his mouth .


“Help me look after him . ”


I said as I stood up and readied my sword .


“Now this is getting interesting . ”


It was seriously interesting . Despite having been apart for so long, I could grasp what Haru was about to do and what she wants to do .


Similarly, for Haru, she knew what I wanted to do and matched her movements to mine .


Our dance-like movements were as if we were in a swordfight period drama and before we knew it, Hallock and the others were watching us silently . And we made all the enemy pirates faint silently .


“It seems like they’ve all been annihilated without us noticing . ”


“Yeah ― then ―”


It happened when Haru was about to lose on purpose .


” ―― !!”


What’s this sensation?


It was chilly all of the sudden . The Presence Detection skill activated on its own and it told me that I was going to be attacked by that monster .


Haru was the same, she trembled as she looked at the southern sky .


I could tell even from a distance . I could tell even without confronting it .


That unmasked killing intent ― it was probably a strong foe at the same level of the Leviathan .


(It can’t be ― the Demon Lord!?)


Haru heard my involuntary muttering and looked at me .


(What about Demon Lord-sama?)


(I was planning to tell Haru later but it seems like the Demon Lord has revived and is near Port Kobe . )


(Demon Lord-sama … has revived?)


Although Haru could not hide her shock, I actually hoped that this presence belonged to the Demon Lord . As long as Haru was there, it would probably not turn into a fight .


But it was still uncertain .


I turned to Hallock and yelled .


“Hallock! You guys should evacuate with the ship! Something dangerous is coming!”


“Dangerous person … Don’t tell me it’s that person who destroyed the pirates ―”


“It might or might not be . I’m not sure but just evacuate for now!”


“O, okay!”


Hallock replied and ran in the direction of the ship .


Like this, they won’t find out that Haru and the Demon Lord are acquainted .


I thought so but ―


” — !”


The presence changed direction . That direction is —


I looked eastward where Hallock ran off to and cursed my own stupidity .


If the opponent moves to crush pirates, there’s a possibility that they will aim for the escaping Hallock and others and it was what actually happened .


A huge explosion of darkness happened to the east and that aura became a gust of darkness that threatened to blow us off our feet .


I covered my face with both my hands to resist it and thought to rush to Hallock’s aid but it looked like the fight was already over .


The presence slowly came towards our direction .


“Haru, I’ll let you know first, I have pretty much used up all my magical power and I can’t even switch from my magic-class jobs to Swordsman job — I’m at about 50% of my capabilities . ”


” — That was your 50% huh — I have personally experienced Master’s amazing strength . ”


“Please leave the flattery to after everything is over — if the opponent is the Demon Lord that Haru is acquainted with, name yourself immediately — if not, we’ll look for an opening to escape to where Malina is . ”


If we escaped to My World, Malina who was still on the pirate ship would be in danger .


However, if we moved to the pirate ship where Malina was now, the Demon Lord would probably chase us and it would turn into a fight before we could talk .


Now, we could only wait .


Then, I slowly heard the footsteps of the owner of that presence and they appeared .


Strangely, the opponent was also wearing armor just like us .


I had a golden armor, Haru had a silver armor and the opponent had a bronze armor .


However, unlike an Olympic competition, I could tell from their presence that their strength was not directly proportional to the material of the armor .


“Haru — is that?”


“No, Demon Lord-sama is not that small . ”


” … I guessed so . ”


That figure reminded me of the height of the mysterious girl that I heard of from Hallock and the others . A considerable scent of danger was coming from the opponent of about Carol and Miri’s height wearing bronze armor .


I was certain that was the pirate-crushing girl feared as a Demon Lord by Hallock and the others .


If I remember correctly, her name was —
