Monster Hunt: Notes from a Hunter

Chapter 1471 The inheritance of slacking off

Fortunately, Gordon is a thick-skinned man.

The surprised looks and whispers of passers-by could not shake him.

On the contrary, Hayata's pace obviously quickened, and Gordon could only keep up with her. The two of them walked quickly all the way to the door of Amos's house.

Unlike his uncle and aunt, Amos, as Hayata's master, is a serious and meticulous person.

Hayata checked her appearance carefully.

After making sure that the protective gear straps were tied carefully, his hair was neat and tidy, and there was no part of his body that would be criticized as "sloppy", he knocked on Amos's door.

After waiting for a while, no one answered. Hayata increased the force a little and knocked a few more times, but there was still no response.

The other party didn't seem to be at home.

This result made Hayata a little disappointed, but not surprised.

As one of the only two (permanent) eight-star hunters in Minagard, Amos has a busy daily schedule.

In addition to another eight-star dual-sword user, Xia Zuo, who is older and has gradually retreated to the second line, Amos is ordered to go out more frequently.

I didn't have time to say hello in advance when I came back this time, so I happened to run into the other party who was not there, which was really helpless.

Gordon patted her shoulder and comforted her, "At least for a short period of time, we will definitely stay in the Old World and will not go anywhere else.

There will be a chance to meet.”

".Um."

Hayata nodded, and after taking one last look inside the window, the two of them walked towards the meeting house just across the street.

Compared to what I remembered, the Hunter's Gathering House in Minagard seemed a little different.

It has expanded in size and the dark red roof has obviously been renovated, but the wooden door, which has become smooth and shiny after being pushed open countless times by countless hands, is still there.

The two looked at each other and pushed the door open.

It was morning now, and there were not many people in the meeting house tavern, only a few hunters, who were having breakfast.

It is rare for a hunter to get drunk early in the morning. That is not heroic behavior, but just a simple drunkard.

If it really gets lively, it usually doesn't happen until the afternoon or evening.

The two people who entered the room attracted the attention of the hunters, and their scrutinizing eyes fell on the two of them without any concealment.

It has nothing to do with offense, it's just the hunters' habit.

It may not be possible to fully judge the opponent's strength based on their equipment, but you can still get a general idea of ​​it.

Just like there will be no novice equipped with a fire dragon suit, and an old hunter wearing a blue speed dragon suit is most likely a gathering hunter.

This sight made them a little stunned.

The armor on the female hunter was completely unfamiliar to me, from its material to its shape, but I could tell at a glance that it was very advanced equipment.

The other big male hunter was wrapped in a cloak, which made it hard to see clearly, but it gave people an inexplicable feeling of scalp tingling.

"Why do you feel like it looks familiar?" the hunter who was eating stew with a spoon asked his companion next to him.

"Seems to be"

The other person looked carefully and finally recognized him, "Isn't that Hayata? The other one is Gordon?!"

"Aha! It's them!" Someone at another table also laughed.

Gordon can be considered half a member of their Minagard Guild, not to mention Hayata, a native local girl.

We are all familiar with each other and have fought side by side. Even if we haven't seen each other for a few years, we will not fail to recognize each other.

Not to mention the names of "Brave Man" and "Red Blade", which are quite popular and people mention them from time to time.

Noticing the movement here, the two of them turned their heads.

Gordon raised his chin, "Darren, Jerome, long time no see."

"Senior Normahi!" Hayata also greeted the senior she was familiar with with a smile.

In addition to a few acquaintances, there were also some young hunters who had heard of the two men's names but had never seen them in person, and they were excited to go up and chat with their "idols".

He was also worried about disturbing the other person and causing them to feel bad, so he looked very restless.

The senior next to him smiled and patted his shoulder, “It’s okay, they have very good personalities, just like those drunkards.

If you are worried about disturbing them, wait until they finish their work and come over, then find a chance to chat with them."

After greeting their acquaintances, Gordon and the other man walked towards the mission counter.

It's not that they want to take the mission, but mainly because Hayata wants to find out about Amos. They can stay in Minagard for another day, and it would be great if they have the chance to meet him.

The two came to the task counter, only to find the poster girl in a light green uniform dozing off on the table.

It was clearly still early in the morning.

The two looked at each other and saw helplessness in each other's eyes.

Gordon reached out and slapped the table, making a loud "bang bang" sound.

"Ah! Sorry! I wasn't asleep!"

The poster girl, startled, raised her head suddenly.

After seeing the former's face clearly, Gordon and Hayata couldn't help but say in unison.

"Who are you?!"

"Not Tikki?"

The little poster girl, who looked only sixteen or seventeen years old and still had a childish look on her face, looked around nervously.

Not seeing the figure that frightened her, she heaved a sigh of relief and patted her chest, "What? Supervisor Tikki is not here."

Gordon and Hayata looked at each other again.

I almost forgot, Tikki is about the same age as Gordon, maybe a year or two older.

It's been more than ten years now. There's no way she's still wearing the light green uniform that new recruits wear and working as a receptionist here.

(so)
But Director Tikki?

Is that lazy salted fish really okay?

The little janitor, whose mind was gradually regaining clarity, bowed vigorously to the two of them, "I'm sorry! I'm not used to working the night shift yet. Please don't tell your supervisor about what happened just now!"

Hayata smiled and nodded, but Gordon had some teasing thoughts.

He frowned and said in a deep voice: "Tell us the news about Amos, and we won't report you."

The young receptionist was stunned for a moment, then took a half step back and looked at the two strangers in front of the counter warily.

One was wearing a powerful-looking black armor, while the other was wearing a mysterious cloak, with the armor peeking out from between the gaps in the fabric also black.

Then I thought about the other party trying to find out the hunter's whereabouts.
"You are Dark Night?!"

"???" Gordon was full of question marks.

It’s true that he wanted to tease the other person, but is there really something wrong with this kid’s brain?
In order to avoid further misunderstanding, Hayata pushed Gordon aside and handed over his hunter notes.

"Amos is my master. We just want to ask if he has been in Minagard recently."

The young poster girl took the note carefully, opened it and looked at it, then screamed again.

"Eight stars?!"

No wonder she was so startled.

Due to the different nature of the missions, senior hunters are received by experienced poster girls dressed in goose yellow uniforms.

As a newcomer, she can only handle low-star tasks. Even so, she often needs guidance from other senior poster girls.

As for the Eight-Star Hunters, their missions are mostly assigned by President Fanti himself.

"Wait a moment. I'll go find other seniors!"

The young mascot bowed vigorously once more and was about to run away when another figure came walking quickly towards her.

"I'll take care of it here."

The person who came was not wearing the maid-style uniform commonly seen in this guild.

Instead, it was a more professional outfit, similar in style to the poster girl of the investigation team.

Gordon couldn't help but grin, "Sure, Tikki, you got a promotion?"

"Hmm~" Tikki raised her chin, "You, 'Hero', are already 9 stars, so what's wrong with me getting promoted to receptionist supervisor?"

"And brought out a bunch of lazy people?" Gordon asked with a smile.

"What do you mean?"

Tikki took a few seconds to react before glaring at the little poster girl fiercely.

"You dozed off on duty again?!"

"Ouch! I'm sorry!"
