Chapter 81: 15-year-old Inglis and Hyrule Menaces' Disease (2)
「Ms. Eris and Ms. Ripple. It’s been a while.」
Inglis politely greeted the two Hyrule Menaces. It had been several years since she met Eris in particular. Seeing her made Inglis felt nostalgic
「Yeah, it’s been three years. You’ve become so beautiful. You were so childish back then, but now you’re an adult.」 「Thank you very much. I see that you haven’t changed at all, Ms. Eris.」 「I guess I haven’t. I’m a Hyrule Menace, after all.」
She had heard that Hyrule Menaces had a long life span, but Eris’ look was exactly the same as when Inglis first saw her after all these years; a beauty just before her twenties. While she looked more mature compared to the fifteen-year-old Rafinha and Leone, she appeared about the same age as Inglis.
「Long time no see!」 「Good afternoon!」
Rafinha and Leone also bobbed their heads with a smile. Ripple then cracked an amiable grin at Inglis and the other two.
「I heard the news~ Y’know, about the negotiation stuff with the Highland the other day! You guys contributed greatly, right? It should’ve been us who take care of stuff like that, so I’m really grateful you scored hard back then for us.」 「Let me say my thanks too.」 「No, it’s alright. The two of you were away because of a mission, so there was no other way. Your absence could also be the direct reason the incident took place in the first place」
If Raphael, a Holy Knight, and a Hyrule Menace were there to exercise their authority over the entire premise — Then the Knights under Prime Minister Althea wouldn’t consider resorting to such a careless action.
And perhaps Special Envoy Myynti would not have let the Rune Eater loose. And the Ironblood Chain Brigade would also be vigilant and chose not to enter the scene as well. It was very probable that the chain of incidents wouldn’t have kicked off, or so Inglis thought.
