Chapter 2:

Typhoon Trace: S-Rank Adventurers

『For Me, Teleportation Is the Worst Power, Because I Want to Be a Normal Rising Hero—Not Someone Who Skips the Struggle and Starts Overpowered』


“I will help, but I will need to keep my powers hidden from M.A.Y for a while, meaning I will need a team to work with and…”

BANG…Crash…SCREAM…

"Rrrrraaaaaaaaaaaaaaggghhhhhhhh..."

"RUN... It's a monster."

"AH, Goldie, come here."

That was the next noise heard, before the screams and commotions, then the throne room doors flew open, and a bald guy in armor and a scar on his right eye looked similar to Juan except for the scar and the fact that he was a bit tanned.

“Commander Julius, what is the commotion?”

“My King, a monster just sprung up from the river outside the capital walls, its rank is at the lower end of B. The name is not known; it must be a new chimera.”

“Angler Kraken, let’s call it that, looks like what it sounds like,” I said as I was at the window. It looked like an angler fish and octopus chimera, basically a red fish with red tentacles and a yellow esca.

It attacked by moving its tentacles and spitting green acid from its mouth. Next thing I knew, the alarm system was blasting, which was surprising yet not surprising, and by that, I mean, the world is a mixture of fantasy and a bit of the early 1900's, probably 2000's, thanks to magic.

<WARNING! WARNING! A MONSTER, RANK B MINUS, HAS JUST APPEARED OUTSIDE THE CAPITAL WALL. EVACUATION INSIDE THE CAPITAL WALLS IS ADVISED. ALL ADVENTURERS RANKED B AND ABOVE SHOULD REPORT AT THE CAPITAL GATES.>

“Do you want to handle the kraken, Lord Irashime?”

“Nah, Aro I don’t feel like. I mean, the adventures have been called.”

“Of course, you want to see which of them is fit for your crew. I will have the best join you.”

Well, the best will be okay as long as it's not only women. The thought of having a harem is as bad as having one.

Not long after, the AK, as I call it, received giant slashes, the culprit a cat girl. Next, it was held by some spirits, I think of lesser to greater rank, summoned by a female human, and then a female elf fired a fire spell, notably known as 'Fire Spear', at the AK, which surprisingly dealt a lot of damage. All in all, this team was great, but the nobles said they were holding back. But I still lost interest since all three were girls.

Ω

“How about this?” said the cat girl as she sliced off one of its tentacles.

It retaliated by sending a large acid ball at the girl, which was deflected by a shield wielded by a male ogre.

“Thanks, Tank.”

“Learn to be more careful, Symphony,” replied the ogre.

“Yeah, that could have killed you.” Said the female elf, annoyed, before launching a boost spell towards a human male, “ It is all yours, Boss.”

Then afterwards, the one known as “Boss”, a male human, struck the kraken down in half, while the human female called back her summoned spirits. Afterwards, peace was restored to the capital walls.

“Well, no need for the others again, right?” said Tank, looking at the other adventurers who just assembled outside the capital wall.

“Well, it is because of Eighty’s teleportation magic.” Said Symphony, the cat girl.

“Eighteen is the name Symphony. You should learn to pronounce my name more properly.” Said Eighteen the human girl.

As they were almost at the capital walls, a carriage pulled up to the gate, and a second one followed it swiftly behind it.

“Well done, Team Typhoon!” said a bald man with some hair around the back and side of his head and in butler slacks coming out of the first carriage few moments after they reached the capital wall. “The King knows of your most recent deed and has summoned you all for an audience with the newly summoned hero.”

“A meeting with the hero, huh? I guess that is okay, must mean the hero likes us.” Said Savior, the boss, putting his giant blade in his sheath, and turned towards his crew. “Well, let’s get going.” And with that, Typhoon Trace got into the second carriage and headed for King Aro’s castle.

They were one of the top five groups in the Basilisk Union Group Of Guilds, commonly referred to as BUG, and Typhoon were seen as the S-rank Heroes of Adventuring by many.
