"Arthur-sama! Arthur-sama! It's morning!"
A young blonde girl was waking up a young boy who was under the blankets having a dream only known to him.
"Umm... Is it Violet? Let me sleep a little more."
"No! Today, we have a mission from the guild. And we have to go early."
"Yawn! You are too strict, Violet. What did I do to grow you like that?"
The Boy, Arthur sat up on his bed and just couldn't help but think about all these years.
'Violet was so cute when she was a child. And now she... Sigh. I guess, this is what happens.'
"What a good scenery! This is what I like forest life!"
Arthur came out and saw the green forest and its serenity. It feels very fresh and calm.
Arthur came to the bathroom and washed up himself. Or else Violet will be angry.
"Oh! Arthur-sama. I will dry up your hair."
Arthur just sighed and sat down in front of her.
What can he do?
Because from childhood, he gave too much freedom and made Violet learn a lot of things, she just now reins over the house and over Arthur as well.
Arthur, the strongest demon hunter was at mercy of Violet Evergarden, his assistant.
Violet came to him with a magic hair dryer he made with enchantments and then dried his hair.
Arthur looked at Violet's reflection in the mirror. Unlike in anime, this Violet somehow is more expressive.
She was smiling as she was caressing his hair and drying up it with the dryer.
"Violet, your smile. I like it very much."
Arthur felt very satisfied whenever he sees her smile. It makes him feel like all his sins are washed away.
Hearing Arther's straight compliment, Violet blushed and her smile became more bright.

Hunters Guild.
In recent years, of all guilds, this particular branch in Els became astonishingly famous.
And the reason was really, nobody other than Arthur Pendragon - The strongest demon hunter.
And he is not some old dude. At the age of 15, he is the strongest of all.
As soon as this news was all over the world, many of them ignored it probably thinking it was fake news.
How can a 15-year-old be so powerful?
But some nations paid utmost importance to him.
Earlshide Kingdom and his own nation Els Federation of Commerce.
Many offers from these two countries came to him which he rejected.
It's not of his arrogance. It's just because Arthur never became strong to be used by others.
But he still accepted the offer of Els Federation. And it was of guarding the important merchants' safety while transferring goods for business. And in exchange, he will get a hefty amount of money and also a privilege in all types of government issues.
Buying land, setting up a shop, and all types of issues that require the help of the government will be a privilege for him.
Arthur happily chose this offer. There were too many advantages for him and he also wanted to buy the land of his wooden house.
If everything is settled peacefully, then he is happier than anybody else. After all, he is not a fighting maniac.
And today he has the mission of guarding a noble of Earlshide Kingdom who came to Els for business.
Arthur who only imagined nobles with arrogant attitudes was surely shocked to see a noble with a very normal personality.
"Hello, Count Carlton. My name is Arthur Pendragon. And she is Violet."
Violet bowed a bit as a courtesy, while Arthur raised his hand for a handshake. Though he was only 15, he was the same height as the middle-aged man in front of him.
"Nice to meet you, Arthur-kun."
Arthur didn't mind his familiar way of talking and shook his hands.
"While I didn't intend to ask but who is she?"
Arthur pointed at the girl behind him looking everywhere. She was beautiful with a gorgeous face and proportions. And her bubbly personality was all over the place.
"She is my daughter, Yuri Carlton. It's her first time coming somewhere outside the kingdom. That's why she is very curious. Do you have any problem?"
"No. It's okay. Then, I will protect you till you reach Earlshide Kingdom."
Arthur smiled and finally signed off the deal.

A place very deep inside the forest, there was a very big wooden camp. Larger than anybody could imagine.
Many people fully buffed with swords, spears, and bows were gathered in the center of the camp.
And above on a wooden stage, was standing a very familiar figure.
"Listen you all bastards! After years of struggles with me, finally... we are the strongest bandits in this nation! Just from the small group, we grew up to this.
You all didn't become bandits because you all wished to. It's because of the people who abandoned you. The people who think that they are great. The people who hate you drove you this far. But see where we are now.
But now we have the power!
We are the strongest now!
We are united now!
We will take over the country and make it our own paradise! And today is the first attack of our Bandit Union!
We will plunder them! We will kill them! We are the Bandit Union!"
After the speech, the gathered bandits cheered in a very loud voice. They have been deprived of the freedom and now they will get it.
Those who shunned them and made them ostracized from Society will get repaid.
"Bandit Union!"
"Bandit Union!"
"Love live Grant-sama!"
"Grant-sama!" "Grant-sama!"
There was probably nothing to shock about these bandits.... is what a normal person would say.
But, if Arthur was here he could tell from a glance. That ten years ago, his premonition made him worried is now true!
Grant, the leader of the bandit army raised his sword and declared.
"Bandits. No... Devils! let's commence attack!!"
