Chapter 174: A Risky Venture

Before returning home, Akira stopped by the city’s forward base to sell the relics he’d found. The clerk, treating him extremely politely, handed him a list.

“These are the relics you’ve given us today, itemized for your convenience. Please take a look and confirm that everything is correct. If so, we’ll begin our appraisal and will pay you afterward.”

Akira looked at the list, and one thing immediately jumped out at him. “Er, it says here that these relics were found in ‘Kuzusuhara Depths, Zone 2.’ What does ‘Zone 2’ mean?”

“Yes, for convenience’s sake, the Kuzusuhara depths have been divided into zones and numbered by the city.” The area Akira had just visited was Zone 2, and the section where he’d worked with Yumina was known as Zone 1. “Wow, for you to head to Zone 2 on your own, you must be awfully fearless, eh, Mr. Akira? Then again, you were given a rank advancement commission, so perhaps ruins like those are just business as usual for hunters as talented as you.”

While exploring Zone 2, Akira had also taken on some mundane extermination jobs for the city on the side, so the city already knew he had been in the area. “Er, thanks for the compliment,” he said with a polite smile.

“We would have bought those mechanical monsters off you too, if you’d brought them in, but it seems you destroyed them instead. Understandable, but still a bit of a shame.”

“Sorry. Things got a little dicey back there, so I didn’t have that luxury. Oh, I’m not claiming my rights to their remains just because I defeated them, though, so you can send some people to recover what’s left if you want.”

“I appreciate your kind offer, Mr. Akira, but Zone 2 is so dangerous that even the city’s mechs had to retreat from there. If we did offer a retrieval job to other hunters, I doubt anyone would take it— Oh, what if you go get them for us? We’ll make it an official request through the Hunter Office, if you’d like!”

“Oh, well, I appreciate it, but I just, er, kinda came back from there, and you know...”

Seeing Akira’s face at the prospect of heading back to Zone 2 so soon, the clerk gave a wry smile. “Don’t worry, I don’t blame you.”

The group of hunters were heading to Zone 1 in a large transport vehicle that also carried the corpse of the giant wolf Akira had defeated. The unit’s leader, a man named Moraf, addressed his comrades.

“We’re about to arrive at the destination point. Just to let you know, they’ll be expecting us to stay quiet and not make a scene, but stay on your toes so that we’ll be ready in case something does happen.”

The other hunters chorused that they understood—save for one, who looked puzzled.

“Hey, Moraf, are you sure that this is a good idea? Isn’t this transaction a little more dangerous than what we’re used to?”

“Why do you think I just told you
