Ivory-haired girl... and then everything was black.

The next thing I knew, I was at the funeral, "Who wants to take them?" "Erm... three child is kinda" "Yeah, I don't mind taking the other two but for the baby" "That's why I say not to marry him" "And the money itself isn't enough to support three children" "Do you know the other two kids are a freak?" "Yeah, it is a hot news all over the world that [Ability] thing" "Still, what's wrong with the elder brother, it is his parent funeral and yet not a single tear falling down"

(.... I can hear everything)

I woke up and found myself in an unfamiliar room. The roof wasn't wooden. The walls were simply cream, not peeling or dirty, just cream, there were flowers, beautiful paintings, leather chairs and soft music. On the wall was a plasma screen and the bed was comfortable. The beeping sound of machines was matching my breath. My body was numb, I tried my best to keep my eyes opened.

*Creak*

The door opened, it created a different sound from the sliding door of my house. A small child, chubby, with her characteristic Ahoge that move left and right every time she walked came in, followed by a brown-skinned girl in green uniform and a blonde girl with a bandaged head

"Ah!! Nii-chan is awake!" Yelled Yuzu and she jumped to the leather chair.

"What the hell is wrong with you, getting hospitalized at your first mission." Said Ume in her characteristic sarcastic tone. She changed the music into the one in her taste and sat down with Yuzu.

"Sorry Ume~ it is my fault." The oddball here was Julia, why was she here?

"Wait! it is a joke!"

"....What happened?"

Everything was hazy. I remembered about the giant crocodile and the Ooze plan, but I can't remember everything after that.

"Erm... they said by the time they found you, you're crushed down by Deinosuchus tail, ah! it is the official name they give to the giant crocodile!"

"....seriously? that is kinda lame."

"Lame or not, you beat the Deinosuchus alone! how did you do that? Is there some kind of trick? or you're actually a strong one?"

"...No, the Ooze... I tricked it to eat the Ooze"

"How? tell me the detail!"

Before I able to tell Julia, someone was knocking at the door.

"Come in" Said Ume, ...hey I just realized the room was too good.

A slick-haired man and spiky-haired man with orange glasses came in, both of them brought 3 attache cases, they lined up at the side and the same old man in his black uniform came in. Julia raised up and gave a salute, Ume clumsily followed her, and last Yuzu also followed them.

"Ho~ what a great recruit we have over here." Said the black uniform old man. "I'm sorry but can you guys leave us for a moment?" Said Akechi, dude... I just woke up.

You could be reading stolen content. Head to the original site for the genuine story.

"Yeah, sure, go interrogate a person who just wakes up." Nice one Ume!

"This is an urgent matter, if you're calling yourself an Adventurer you should know the consequence of ignoring the order, TRAINEE. and don't worry, we bring a healer with us"

"...It's fine, Julia... I entrust those two with you"

"Okie dokie~ now then Yuzu-chan~ Ume~ let's eat at the downstairs~" Julia took both of them, though hesitant Ume still followed her, I wonder how many days I passed out. After they left, the trio took a seat, Spike put all of his cases next to Akechi, while Akechi opened his case and took out his laptop, papers and et cetera.

"...So what's the urgent situation?" When I said this, Akechi started typing on his laptop.

"First, thing first, about the Deinosuchus, is there any information you can give to us?" The one asking first was Spike, hello dude, I didn't even know your name. He moved closer to me and did a treatment.

"....Sorry... I don't think I have."

"Anything is fine, how you beat it? it's resistance, speed, is it have some kind of [Ability]? What about its exp?"

...There were too many questions, first thing first I said "[Status]". Yup, it didn't change.

"About that I tricked it to eat the Acidic Ooze, for its speed I believe it's lower than 50km/h, though it can leap pretty far and fast, I don't know about the exact value, as for its resistance, exp or [Ability], I don't have any."

" *FWEET* Tricked it to eat the Ooze, that's a smart move, so, how do you know it will work?" 

" I didn't, it was a gamble." 

"Hoo, I see, then about its body, since it is a new type, we want to take all of it." Spike gave an eye signal to Akechi. He opened the other case, showed it to me and said.

"All of it is 10 million yen, this should be enough as the reimbursement and don't worry, we will make you a new equipment from its part, just tell us the detail before the end of this week."

....Ah, No good, I had nauseating feeling by seeing that amount of money.

"...can you closed it down" I forcefully moved my hand and covered my mouth, actually I wanted to throw up but nothing came out from my out except acidic flavor. I betted my eyes were watery right now.

"What? are you so happy about getting this much until you wanted to cry?"

"Just! *ouch* just... close it down." Forcibly, I raised my body, it was painful. I can hear the crackling sound from my bone.

"Akechi, just does what he wants," The one told Akechi was Spike.

"...Sorry" He took another case and said, "Now about the next matter, we already made the ID card for you, inside this, there were a specialized phone, laptop, tablet, the other set of uniform and don't forget to register your bank account, it is inefficient to give money directly. Now, I believe Captain has something he wants to ask."

"Alright boy! first thing first! congrats for miraculously survives two encounters in a week! you have a knack to get into a trouble aren't you, gahahaha." ....I believe he was the type that will hit my back as hard as he can while he said this. Thank god I was injured... wait, I had my priority wrong here. wait again, that was all!?

"...Is that all?"

"Yup, now go get some rest, we the old men will excuse ourselves."

Or not, even after he said that Spike still healing me, while Akechi cleaned up his things. After a few minutes of awkward silence, both of them stood up and left the room.

Haah... that was tiring... urgh... the bed was too comfortable.

"Zzzz..."

Once the Trio left the room, they went into their car and Tsukiyama said 

"Akechi searches some information about the boy past, don't forget to apologize at a later time, and Shima, what do you think about this matter? Is this have some connection with the hellhound?"

"Roger"

"I don't know yet, it is weird for a monster as strong as a Hellhound to appear in the middle of city, as for the new variant, I believe it can happen at random times, too bad we didn't have any information about it, I guess autopsy is the only decision we have."

"Hmph! I might be a stupid captain, but my guts telling me something is wrong, anyhow, about the autopsy, I'll try to speak it with the Top."

"FUCK! WHAT DO THEY MEAN I FAILED!? AND HOW IS THAT GLASSES AND THE CHICKEN GIRL ACCEPTED!?"
