Storm of Reluctance is the third episode of the Louie the Rune Soldier manga and the third episode of the first tankōban in the Louie the Rune Soldier manga series.
Synopsis[]
Melissa is disappointed that Louie doesn't fulfill her expectations of a true hero. He's not strong, noble, proud, manly, but she views him as a thug. She tells her high priestess Jenny she was hoping her hero would be more like Rijarl the Dragonslayer, but Jenny remembers Rijarl was into liquor and women just like Louie is. She reminds Melissa that if these were Myrii's words, then everything will be fine.
Later, Merrill, Genie and Melissa have gotten information on some unexplored ruins they want to investige as part of their adventure. They spot Louie in a bar and watch as another adventurers group is trying to bribe him into leaving the three girls, and joining them. Louie, however, believes that they're just after his name (because of his connection to Carwes) and, even though the three girls are never nice to him, he decides to stick with them. Outside the bar he meets with the three girls who tell him they're gonna depart for their adventure the next day.
