I Was Banished From the Hero Party I Raised

3. Start training (1)

Kati’s cat eyes turned to Vivian.

“uh… .”

Vivian’s hand, which covered her mouth in surprise, trembled.

That wasn’t a good sign.

“Mine… ?”

The voice shakes as well.

also happens like this

I expected it.

Ordinary people get scared and run away when they see Mine.

Even among superhumans, there are even those who run away, and a few try to fight.

When Arya first found out about Kati’s identity, she tried to kill her.

On the other hand, Vivian is rather quiet.

Kati nodded slowly when asked if she was a Mine.

Vivian couldn’t say anything, her mouth was open.

I can’t help it.

I’m trying to tell you to stop wearing blindfolds.

“Wow… .”

… huh?

Isn’t this a scary voice?

“I-I’m seeing that mine for the first time… . Miraculous… .”

Rather, I am curious and look at Kati here and there.

what is this.

“M-Do all mines look like this?”

“… … .”

Kati didn’t answer and stayed still.

This is not the reaction I expected.

“note… .”

Mercy also touched her lips as if embarrassed.

“Vivian? What… Are you scared or anything like that?”

“yes? Ah, yes, I did when I realized it was Mine, but… . If it’s Ian’s person, I think it’s okay to trust him. You seem to have been together for quite some time… . Actually, beating my ex-manager earlier was also thrilling.”

… Totally unexpected.

Rather, I am embarrassed now.

Is it okay to be so positive?

“Ah, of course, compared to useless scumbags like me, Kati-sama is much more competent and beautiful, so it’s true that I don’t dare to dislike it or even be able to… . For me, just being next to Ian… .”

Being positive is canceling.

How can I fix that habit?

“Stop, stop. I see. Kati, you can use the eyepatch again.”

“Yes.”

why is he like this again

Kati is laughing now.

His expressionless expression was the same as usual, but the corners of his mouth went up very faintly.

It’s a smile that I can recognize because I’ve seen it for a long time.

What’s so good about it?

“Anyway… It’s fine if you don’t like it.”

“Me, how could something like me… .”

“From now on, let’s not use the word ‘someone like me’.”

“Ugh, it’s too attached to my mouth… . That, I’ll try anyway. sorry… .”

“Don’t even say sorry.”

“Ugh… .”

He nods his head even though he frowns in pain.

You listen well.

As long as you keep it like this, it’s just fine.

All that remains is to train well.

“Well, by the way, what kind of ability is Kati-sama… ? Each Mine has a special ability… . Oh no, I dare… Hick! It’s not… .”

oh i’m crazy

Kati glanced at me, so I nodded.

“show me.”

Immediately, Kati transformed into a white cat.

There are many other abilities, but this is the only one that can be shown outside.

“Ears, cute… ! so cute… .”

Vivian squatted down almost on her stomach and looked at Carty.

“No, you can touch it… ?”

Kati just proudly scratched her chin with her hind paw.

It was unclear whether it was positive or negative.

When Vivian gently stroked between her ears, Kati stayed still.

“Hehehe… .”

for a while too.

He immediately shook his head and turned around.

“Okay… . sorry… .”

“now stop. Let’s go.”

“Where are you going?”

At that question, I looked Vivian up and down.

“Uh huh, you shouldn’t look at women like that.”

“I did it to buy clothes first.”

I put Mercy’s clothes on, but they are too loose.

Even considering that they will gain weight later, the two are different from the height.

It’s not that Vivian is small, but Mercy is on the big side.

The ones I’ve worn before are no better than rags, so I’ll have to buy several attire.

“I have some of the clothes I used to wear… .”

“That’s called a rag, not clothes.”

“Ugh… .”

“Come on, follow me. Rag.”

“That, a rag… .”

Oh, my insides are all cool.

*

There are not just one or two plazas in the capital.

Among them, the square closest to the training center provides various goods for warriors.

I found the largest and most colorful store there.

It was a clothing store dealing in fabric and leather.

I got mixed up between the aspirant and the manager and the like.

“Welcome… . Oh my, Ian?”

As soon as I opened the door and entered, a woman recognized me.

Elegant and dignified speech.

The long hair neatly tied up and the shirt and pants worn comfortably contrast with the voice.

“Taylor. Long time no see.”

Ruby Taylor.

He is the representative of this large general clothing store, and he is also the person who knows my identity.

“What are you doing here? What about the party?”

“That was kicked out.”

“yes?”

He frowned in surprise, then smiled.

“I thought they weren’t cheap, but I never thought they would do that to Ian… .”

All four of them matched their outfits here.

Even in the second episode, Taylor was so famous that he came and asked for a cheap price before he became that famous.

At that time, the dirty-tempered warriors made demanding demands.

how about this, how about that

The results came out well, but I heard that Taylor and his staff suffered a lot.

“Oh, did I say something I couldn’t?”

“Me too, it’s all in the past now. it’s okay.”

“Then I’m glad. It’s been a while since Mercy and Kati?”

“yes! Nice to meet you.”

Mercy smiled brightly and shook hands, and Kati only nodded.

“Who is behind you? It’s the first time I’ve seen your face.”

“Uh, well… .”

I introduced instead.

“My name is Vivian, and I am a member of the new party.”

“Yeah, I know how you feel. Sister, do you want to come over for a second?”

Vivian stood in front of Taylor, hesitant.

Taylor, without hesitation, touched his shoulder, waist, and leg.

Each time, Vivian’s face turned redder.

I’m sure it’ll be the same color as your hair.

“I’m a bit skinny, but my chest is… . I envy you.”

Oh, it’s almost the same.

“Are you going to put on the flesh soon?”

Taylor looks at me and asks.

Maybe it’s because it’s not the first time, so it’s very convenient for me to infer my intentions and plans.

I just nodded.

“Then you can make it with that in mind. Hey, but this hair color… . It would be art if it came back, right?”

“Ah, that’s just because it was unnecessarily conspicuous… .”

“Ugh, no no no. I’ll do it as long as it goes well with this color. How much are you going to do?”

“Three sets, one for training, one for combat, one for everyday use, and one for pajamas.”

“A total of 12 suits? I see.”

Tyler, who wrote down the order, shouted inside.

“Guys, take this sister’s measurements.”

Some of the staff came over and took Vivian away.

The way he keeps looking at me as he moves away is almost like being dragged away.

“How much money can I give you?”

“Hey, Ian. Why are you like this? between us.”

Taylor grinned and nudged her with her elbow.

At the same time, Kati’s gaze pricked the back of my head.

I don’t see it, but I’m sure it is.

The back of my head is sore now.

“How much money do you make because of Ian? How do I get paid?”

but. That’s not wrong.

Even now, people are densely packed in this spacious store.

There is no clothing store this large in the capital, or even in the entire empire.

Of course, there are no clothing stores with as many people as this one.

It’s because all four of the 1st warrior’s party matched their clothes here.

Not only those who aspire to be warriors, but also ordinary people come here to match or choose clothes.

Because they are objects of envy, the public wants to follow them.

“Would you regret it if you didn’t receive it when you gave it?”

“That’s Okay. Instead, if the next party member is found, they will come to visit again. Wouldn’t Ian’s party be incredibly famous?”

“It has to be that way.”

“That’s enough.”

After taking famous kids around, my business skills have improved.

Transactions are not necessarily about exchanging money.

Giving and receiving trust or goodwill in this way was also a kind of transaction.

“I’ll be indebted to you next time. When will the clothes be finished?”

The warrior’s clothes are usually custom-made, so you can’t get them right away.

“Since this is an issue, I will do it as soon as possible. I think it will take two days. Where are you sending it?”

“that… It’s room 302 in the central building of the training center.”

“Yes, it is room 302 in building C. Has it changed a lot there?”

“I thought it was somewhere else.”

By then, a tattered Vivian had returned with the clerks.

What happened was, while I was taking measurements, I heard a scream in the distance.

Vivian looked more exhausted than ever.

“Sister, take this too.”

Taylor snapped something into Vivian’s hand.

It was a hair tie and a comb.

“Go, thank you… .”

“Then I’ll send it to you in two days! Nice to meet you, Ian!”

“See you next time. Taylor.”

*

They were on their way back with the tattered Vivian.

People gathered in the middle of the fork in the road.

Look, there was a bulletin board there too.

Compared to the bulletin board where the names of famous parties such as the 1st party were posted, it was a bit small.

Was there anything like that?

I tried to ignore it, but Vivian stared at the bulletin board again.

“What is that? I’m seeing it for the first time.”

“Ah, this is the place where those who have passed the temporary warriors come up.”

Even temporary warriors?

The bulletin board is very detailed.

Out of curiosity, I peeked through the crowd.

The name of the person who passed the last test was written down.

There was also a reaction from the citizens next to it, and a few names were mentioned a lot in particular.

Now, it seems that not only official warriors, but also celebrities among temporary warriors are appearing.

Vivian’s eyes were somehow lonely.

It was different from the look he looked up at Sylvia.

It seems that old memories are coming back.

“I will upload it.”

“yes?”

“Hey, Vivian’s name will be on the list too.”

“Something like me really… . Oh, no, no, no.”

Vivian covered her mouth and smiled embarrassedly.

“I will believe you. Ian.”

*

Back at the dorm, I sat Vivian down.

I was about to explain how I was going to train.

Previously.

“How did you do when you were training alone?”

“Well, just repeat the magic… I found a theory book and read it. I also sought advice from other warriors.”

Common.

Usually it does.

However, my method is far from normal.

Because that’s not the way it works here.

The members of the 1st party heard it for the first time and asked if it made sense.

But I can assure you, the effect is certain.

I also confirmed everything with my body during the second round.

“The training method I will tell you in the future will be different from what I have been doing. Still, you have to trust me and follow me.”

“Yes, I will try.”

great.

Now the self-deprecation has lessened.

I see a change.

“Then, the first training… .”

Slowly explained the first training.

Vivian’s expression twisted into embarrassment.
