Monster Hunt: Notes from a Hunter

Early morning at the port of Minergard.

Before a certain cargo ship from the Western Continent docked, a petite figure jumped down from it.

The tourists passing by and the workers on the pier couldn't help but turn their eyes to her intentionally or unconsciously.

Her recurved feet and pointed ears proved her identity as a dragonborn, but this was not the reason for everyone to focus on her. After all, dragonborns in Minagarde City were not uncommon.

What really makes everyone feel interesting is her small stature and her attire.

The little girl, who was about 150 centimeters tall, was slender and slender, and looked like she could be blown away by a gust of wind, but judging from the equipment on her body and the weapon behind her, she seemed to be a hunter again.

I have never seen such a small hunter.

The girl who had been floating on the sea for a long time just landed on the ground of the pier, her footsteps were still a little shaky, "Hey ~!" After standing firmly on her feet, she breathed a sigh of relief, clenched her small fists as if to cheer herself up .

Cute pinch.

Such thoughts popped up in the hearts of everyone around at the same time.

He is two meters tall, shoulders as wide as a city wall, and his arm circumference is comparable to the head circumference of an ordinary person. His big bald head is covered with scars and his mouth is like a bold and fierce man, which is in line with the standard image of a monster hunter in ordinary people's impressions.

And the little girl in front of me can be said to be two extremes.

Noticing that everyone around her was looking at her, the dragon-human girl trembled all over, folded her hands in front of her lower abdomen and bowed quickly, then ran away.

After leaving the pier, the dragon-human girl inquired all the way, and finally, with the help of an enthusiastic sister, she arrived at the gate of the Minagarde Hunter's Gathering House.

She thanked her sister who led the way earnestly, and then opened the door and entered the lobby of the Hunter's Gathering House.

The arrival of the dragon-human girl naturally attracted the attention of the hunters in the hall.

As if seeing some kind of rare beast, the brothers and sisters who met the expectations of the public all gathered together.

"Ah! What a cute little girl!"

"Is the little sister a newcomer? This outfit seems to be the style of the Western Continent?"

"The little one is so cute, it reminds me of my little sister!"

"Wake up, you don't have a sister."

"Now there is!"

"roll!"

"Hahaha! The little girl is so skinny, did she sneak out to play in her parents' equipment?"

"(ˇˇ)#"

In the face of everyone's enthusiasm like teasing children, the girl of the dragon tribe puffed up her mouth in dissatisfaction.

In the rented room, Gordon sat on the edge of the bed with his hands on his knees, thinking about life.

Why did I become a lonely person in an instant?

Due to the similarity of ideas, Anshir was favored by Miles, saying that he wanted to teach him the experience and skills of using heavy crossbows. The old and the young went to the hunting ground together, and they would not come back until half a month later.

This is Anshir's chance, which is very good. Anyway, it will take some time until the scythe crab suit is manufactured. It is better for him to "learn" with Miles than to squat in the city to catch fish.

Followed by pork chops.

Pig Chop, who has been away from his hometown for several years, proposes to take this opportunity to go back and visit his parents.

This must be agreed, Gordon also specially bought a lot of food utensils for the pork chop, and by the way asked the pork chop to say hello to the steak for him.

His teammates went to study, and Mao Mao went home to visit relatives. Gordon, who didn't know what to do by himself, wanted to find Ted and the others to play a team. Anyway, everyone's hunter level was about the same.

In the end, after asking Tiji, I found out that the "Alcohol" team set off yesterday afternoon, and failed to catch the team.

Right now, I have to stay in Minagarde for at least half a month. Is he eating, playing, lying down for half a month? Or just find a mission and go to the hunting ground to relive the feeling of hunting alone?

Gordon sat by the bed and thought for a long time, but couldn't come up with a result.

In the end, I still plan to go to the task counter first to see if there are any interesting tasks before making a decision.

Going down from the floor where the hunter's hut was located to the hall on the first floor of the assembly hall, before Gordon had time to go to the task counter, he was first attracted by the movement from the tavern area.

A large group of hunters gathered around the wine table, shouting and cheering.

The waiters and the staff of the assembly hall could even be seen in the crowd, which was extremely lively.

"Uh, it's better than arm wrestling in the morning?" Gordon muttered.

He is familiar with this scene.

As warriors, hunters naturally like to compete, but it is strictly forbidden to point weapons at humans.

Therefore, "wine table entertainment" such as arm wrestling and wrestling has a great market among hunters, and they can be seen almost every day. That's how he and Ted got acquainted back then.

But most of them were drunk, this early in the morning.

Gordon complained in his heart, but he couldn't help but move towards the crowd.

——He likes arm wrestling the most, because he has never seen anyone who can beat him. He could beat Ted when he was seventeen or eighteen years old, let alone now when he was fully grown in his early twenties.

Noticing Gordon's arrival, the onlookers hurried out of the way.

This is the treatment of the king of arm wrestling!

With a reserved but proud smile on his face, he walked into the crowd and came to the table, but when he saw the two players who were competing, his expression suddenly cracked.

He knew the chunky and strong man on the left side of the wine table, a three-star giant hammer user, although the hunter level was not high, but he had stupid strength, and he was a frequent visitor in the arm wrestling field.

But the one on the right side of the wine table

Uh, how old are you, little girl?

Anyway, she must be underage, barely a girl? I feel about the same age as Hayata when we first met, fifteen or sixteen?

In terms of common sense, it is impossible for a petite girl's wrist strength to be comparable to that of a strong adult man, even if the girl is a dragon-human race. After all, the dragon-human race does not have an advantage over humans in terms of muscle strength.

However, this unreasonable scene happened in front of everyone.

——The dragon-human girl clasped the edge of the table with one hand to stabilize her body, and held the other hand with the giant hammer, and the two were in a stalemate.

Looking at the constantly trembling solid wood tabletop, and at the flushed face suffocated by the giant hammer, Gordon understood that there should be no possibility of leaking water or cheating.

This stalemate didn't last long, and amidst the crazy cheers of the crowd, the Dragonborn girl gradually gained the upper hand.

The giant hammer made him grit his teeth, his cheeks bulged up, his eyes almost popped out, but he couldn't move the slender arm with no muscle lines.

The balance of victory tilted step by step.

In the end, with a loud "哐!", the back of the giant hammer hit the table heavily, and an empty wine glass placed on the edge of the table was knocked over.

"Win~!"

The dragon-human girl jumped up happily, but immediately restrained her expression, as if she was trying to maintain her calm and mature personality.

The judge was a tall huntress who, as is customary, grabbed the wrist of the winner and held it high.

"The winner is! Fengying from Yanhuo Village!!!"

Under everyone's speechless gazes, the dragon-human girl whose height barely reached the referee's chest was picked up by her feet in the air.

Fengying: "."

ps. Let’s just say that the prototype of Fengying’s character is the young Shui Yun (in terms of appearance), even, at first I wanted to write Shui Yun directly.

But considering the setting of the twins and a series of factors such as responsibilities, it is too ooc to force Shuiyun (my wife) out of Yanhuo Village's sister, so I can only give up.
