Legend

2600 episodes

The office is splendid... so splendid that even though I've seen it many times before, when I open the door that I'm still unfamiliar with and enter, Dusker, who was working on the paperwork, raises his face and looks at Ray's face and smiles in full.

"Oh, you're back.... tea and something to pick lightly."

I was afraid.

The butler, who had led Ray so far, greeted Dusker's words and left the office.

After dropping it off, Dusker gets up from his chair and goes to the guest sofa.

"Ray, sit over here, too.... and you passed the promotion exam?

Ray nods honestly to Dascar, who asks directly.

Ray didn't tell anyone about passing or failing the promotion exam, but if the other person was Dusker, the story would be different.

He is the lord of Gilm and helped Ray take the promotional exam in the Magic Forest.

In addition, if Ray becomes a Rank A Adventurer, it is definitely better to have Dusker well prepared in the meantime, as it may be necessary to move around a lot.

"So, how was the Devil's Forest?

As well as passing the promotion exam... or more than that, I guess that's what I wanted to ask you.

As a Dusker, I can't allow myself to enter the Magic Forest.

As in this case, if it's too much to talk about, it's different.

In that sense, I can say that this case was truly an exception.

"That's right. I knew monsters were stronger than being outside the Forest of the Devil."

That being said, I will tell you the same thing that I told the gatekeeper earlier - in more detail.

On the way, the butler and the maid brought tea and sandwiches, so I stopped talking once, but when the butler and the maid came out, I started explaining again.

Nevertheless, we will not talk about the Zepil Gate hideout.

I don't know if I can talk to Dusker... or not.

About an hour has passed since we finished discussing some information.

More than half of the sandwiches placed on the table were already in Ray's belly.

"Hmm, I see. As far as Ray's concerned, it's still pretty dangerous."

"That's right. Low rank adventurers are out of the question, but if rank B and rank A adventurers are weak or small in number, they just die. And the existence of a bandit is imperative. It's powerful enough."

In the Forest of the Devil, Ray had a very sharp sense of the five senses called Seto.

That didn't surprise my enemies.... the black snake blew it up anyway.

It wasn't like being ambushed by a monster because of Seto.

But what would have happened without Seth?

Of course, Ray has five senses that are much sharper than normal humans, so the worst is likely to be avoided.

However, bandits who detect the presence of enemies are still a must.

As Ray once said, such a clever bandit is not a bandit who acts as a low-rank adventurer, but a bandit who operates at a party that has a solid pool of high-rank adventurers.

(Especially if that fog monster... is the target of a normal adventurer)

Running away is still the best way Ray can come up with it right away.

Nevertheless, it is unlikely that a fog monster will be able to easily escape an opponent in his area of attack.

If that happens, you'll have to fight if you can't escape... but if the bandits can't catch the enemy's position, the way to attack will be like shooting a widespread attack in anticipation of accidental hits.

"Bandits... they're also smart bandits. It's hard."

Dusker moans with his eyebrows raised.

Bandits aren't as many as wizards, but they're small.

And a few, many of them low-ranking adventurers.

Not that there are no bandits of high-ranking adventurers, but the numbers are rare.

"That's right. So I thought it would be better to basically prohibit the Devil's Forest from approaching.... if you can't defeat the Demon Forest monsters and escape, the worst rank S monsters may attack Gilm."

I see. And then... hmm? Wait a minute. "

It was Dascar who seemed convinced by Ray's words, but I doubt the words now.

And then think about it a little... fu, I come up with something.

"Ray, did you... defeat me?

What are you talking about?

Ray knew what it was, even if he didn't have to honestly say it.

In the current story, it would be stranger not to know.

"Yes, Rank S Monster, it has also defeated a new species of dragon"

That's exactly what Ray said.

Dusker takes a breath at Ray's words.

Ray was convinced to defeat two Rank A monsters.

However, it is only a Rank A monster, not a Rank S monster.

That said, if Ray said that he had defeated a new kind of dragon, he wouldn't be surprised.

"If what Ray says is true... is it true?

Even though Ray said it would be true, is it even more true? Ask Dasker.

That's how Ray's words surprised Dusker.

"Yes, it's true. It's still in my Mystery Storage.... you can let me out if you want to, but if you do, you'll need quite a space.

"Gh...."

Dusker's mouth heard such a groan.

As a personal impression of Dusker, I would like you to show it to me as soon as possible.

However, if you do something like release a new kind of dragon, it will stand out as a matter of course.

Many people know Ray was back in Gilm after taking the promotion exam, but his passing or failing remained unclear

However, if we imitate the body of a crystal dragon here, it is obvious that Ray was the one who defeated it.

Without being so familiar with monsters, many would understand that crystal dragons are high rank monsters... and they are also rank S monsters.

In other words, it's like announcing that Ray passed the promotion exam when he released the Crystal Dragon.

As a Dusker, you can't imitate him as a lord.

No, if you try to push it through, you can imitate it.

However, it did not seem to Dusker to try to imitate it in the current situation.

"Okay. But will that dragon be dismantled in the Alliance? If so, can I inform everyone broadly when I dismantle the dragon?

"What? No, that's fine... why would you do that? To be honest, crystal dragons are pretty powerful even on corpses, aren't they?

A crystal dragon?... no, that's fine. Ray's defeat of such a powerful monster is a huge festival for Gilm... yes. "

I was wondering if it was a festival, but I'm convinced that Dasker would say so.

(Even though it's a festival, I think that's what Gilmore is like every day.)

I didn't think so.

In fact, the current Guillaume has gathered a large number of people for the construction work, and many stalls have emerged for it.

For Ray, the festival is still a night club... or a street stall, or a firework, or a Tanabata.

In that sense, it was not so wrong to say that there were many stalls at the festival.

(Well, but... because I usually use street food, I don't have a special feeling about night clubs)

An okonomiyaki with only a large amount of cabbage and almost no meat.

Yakisoba barely contains ingredients.

Octopus grill, even though it is takoyaki, for some reason it does not contain an octopus.

As such, if you eat a type of dish that you don't normally think is very delicious, it will be delicious if you eat it in a special atmosphere called a night club.

However, since I came to Gilm, I have frequently used street food stalls, and as a result, I feel less excitement specific to street food stalls.

(Would you like to give it a try? I have a bet or something, and I think it's okay to have a whale or something.... but, of course, it changes depending on what kind of spike it is.)

As soon as Ray heard about the festival, he immediately remembered that he pulled the string and pulled the prize.

However, as far as Ray remembers, he has never hit a good product with his hand.

According to rumors, the strings connecting expensive products are shortened in one place, and I remember hearing rumors that they can't be drawn to customers...

Ray only heard rumors, so I didn't know if it was true.

Ray, what's going on?

"No, it's nothing. I heard it was a festival... and I was just thinking a lot about it."

It was Ray who tried to say he remembered the festival for a moment, but he changed his words in a hurry.

Ray was set to live in the back of the mountain with a wizard said to have been his master since he was born.

Beyond that, it tastes a lot worse to say that Ray has experienced the festival.

Can I tell Dusker the truth about myself? I don't think so.

That's all, Ray trusted someone named Dusker.

The reason for this decision is because Marina believes in Dascar.

Dusker doesn't like marinas because he's known for his childhood black history - like proposing to marinas - but it's true that they still have a strong relationship of trust with each other.

If so, I've become a Rank A Adventurer, and I might be able to talk to you.

That's what I thought.

That way, we can also explain the Grimm, who is yearning for the Zepile Gate from the flow of the story and has become undead now.

(Well, even if I thought it would be okay to explain, that's just what I thought. Should we hear from Elaina and the others and make a decision about that area?)

That's what Ray thinks, he keeps on saying.

"Anyway, if you're going to make a scene about a crystal dragon, it would be interesting to have a big scene at the festival.

"Hmm, that sounds interesting. That sounds interesting....."

"Master Dusker?

Ray calls out to Dusker, who looks lost.

Dusker opens his mouth in a little trouble at Ray's words.

"No, if it's a festival... I think I'll have more work to do again"

Ray looks at the documents on the waiting desk.

Compared to when I saw it before, it's not half... but it's about 70% less.

Even if Dusker handles the paperwork, the next one will come.

Still, the decrease compared to the previous period means that the work has settled down to a certain extent.

Festivals in such circumstances will undoubtedly increase the number of jobs.

Given Dusker's health, should we stop the festival? Ray and I get lost.

In the first place, I didn't say that the festival had a deep idea.

I just talked about it in that way somehow.

No need to force a festival.

(Besides, I don't know what the Alliance will do at this festival.)

The only documents that Dusker is processing are because he is the lord of this film - and the documents are still piled up.

Many people have checked the documents by the time they are delivered to Dusker, and they have processed the documents that they can process themselves.

That's why the documents that Dusker handles are really useless if they're not Dusker.

In that sense, there is no doubt that the Alliance is busier.

In the current state, I'm even managing to turn it around, and I'm entrusted with the demolition of the monster Ray defeated.

If we do more festivals there, the Alliance will likely have a full-scale workload.

Well then, do you want to stop after all?

When Ray asks, Dusker silences for a few minutes... and eventually shakes his head sideways.

"No, this is also important in the sense that everyone enjoys it. If a lot of people enjoy it here, it will ultimately improve the efficiency of their work. Then... let's do it."

Ray's casual words led to a sudden festival.
