Legend

He was taken by Marka and Nicky, who were waiting for him in front of the inn, and Ray headed for the dining room in the stargazebo.

Seth was satisfied with being with Ray all day today, and went to the stables without seeming particularly dissatisfied.

"Heh... it's a very stylish place."

Ray murmured at the dining room of the star river pavilion.

Rather than a dining room, it has a restaurant atmosphere.

When it became a restaurant for luxury inns, the evening wheat pavilion, where Ray lived in her home in Marina, was an unbeatable taste of the food served in the restaurant.

However, unlike the sunset wheat pavilion, which can be easily accessed without guests, the dining room at this star's river pavilion looks quite high.

Ray's thoughts are by no means overwhelming.

In fact, Stargawa-tei's cafeteria could not be used unless it was visited by guests or accompanied by guests.

(Well, it would be enough for someone chosen like this to have a sense of superiority.... and in fact, the food served in this restaurant is delicious.)

While carrying the stew on the table to his mouth, Ray thinks so.

It is similar to the potage soup of corn, but it is subtly different from corn.

At least it tasted different from the corn I made at Ray's house.

(Speaking of which, you are the dialect.... it's the first time I've seen it on TV)

While enjoying some potage similar to corn, Ray remembers when he was in Japan.

Where Ray was, he called you the corn.

Ray thought you were a word normally used everywhere in Japan, but I was quite surprised to learn that it was actually a dialect that was only used near where Ray lived.

When I came to Ray's place on TV, on the so-called journey show, even if the farmer said you, the entertainer couldn't understand what it was.

"So, Ray. How did it go today?

While carrying freshly baked bread to his mouth, Marca asks Ray.

If you think about Marka, you'll wonder what kind of action Ray, who wasn't here all day, has been doing.

She brightens her eyes with curiosity and tells Ray to talk.

Nicky was also concerned about what Ray and his brother were doing and looked to expectations.

Nicky was originally Marca's escort.

It's not good to eat together, but Nicky, who treats Marca cheerfully, doesn't seem to care about the area at all.

If you look at Marka, you may recognize that Nicky, who treats herself comfortably, is an easy partner to get along with.

Having dinner at the table with me doesn't seem to bother me in particular.

"Today... yes.First, I went to the Dolan Workshop office and applied. "

"Hmm, that's obvious given Ray's purpose.So? "

It seems that it was easy to predict what happened to the office, and I encourage you to follow up on the story as if there was anything else interesting.

I see. I tried to meet a woman named Lindy at the guild, but for some reason it was Roger who was in the guild. "

"My lord... are you still willing to increase your relationship with more than one woman, including Princess General?

"No, I'm not going to increase or anything, and I haven't had that kind of relationship with Elaina and the others before that."

It's not that kind of relationship yet.

Ray said that, that is, he indicated in his attitude that he wanted to have such a relationship if he had the opportunity, but he didn't seem to have noticed his words.

Contrary to Ray, Marca was more interested in the topic at hand, but now she has a stronger desire to hear what Ray did today than she is interested in, and encourages her to go ahead without hesitating.

"So, Roger is the man who led the men who attacked Seth yesterday, right?Does that mean he was waiting for Ray... to avenge you?

"No, it's not. I don't know, but eventually I gave Roger some of the materials for the Demon Forest Monster and instead I got a Golem."

"As a concubine, I'd like to hear the process."

For Marka, I am very interested in how Ray and Roger interacted.

However, judging from Ray's condition, you won't be able to tell me, and I will stop pursuing it any further.

"Still, the Magic Forest.It was a lot of excitement. "

Of course, Marka, as the Quentin lady, knows about the Magic Forest on the border.

Basically, you shouldn't go near it.

However, it is quite rare to be used as a material for monsters in the Magic Forest.

If you sell it where you sell it, it's not so weird that it's traded at an incredible price.

"I'd say excitement.It's not a Rank A monster, it's a monster that came out quite a lot. "

Okunaga is a rare but collective monster in the Magic Forest.

However, Ray's mistilling contained a large amount of dead or demolished material, and I'm not particularly dissatisfied with the extent to which he handed it over to Roger.

However, considering that it's just a sense of ray and the material of an unknown monster, it's usually a mess.

Roger also told Ray to build a defensive golem because he understands its value.

Ray decided that just the cleaning golem he wanted would not be enough in return for the material.

In that sense, Roger must have been quite disciplined.

"And then I went to the guild, and now I'm going to meet Lindy, and after dinner, I'm going to go bandit hunting."

"Wait a minute!

Unexpectedly, Marka said.

Fortunately, it wasn't that loud, so the other guests at the table never heard it.

However, other customers already know who Ray is.

It was only natural that I wanted to be closer to you than that.

I couldn't hear Marka after all, but I'm sure there were a lot of people watching.

Nevertheless, the people who were seen didn't seem to care about their gaze at all.

"What is it?

"It's not what it is.I understand that I eat and shop.Or maybe we could just eat... and go somewhere else.Then why are you a bandit hunter there?What do you think the date is, my lord?

"No, it's not a date or anything."

It's a betrayed form of hope for Marka.

As for Marca, she would have expected a sweeter and sour development.

However, it was impossible for me to be dissatisfied with the result.

"Well, I can guess what you're mistaken for, but that's not my relationship with Lindy.

"Nooo... so why did you end up hunting bandits?

I wasn't entirely convinced by Ray's words, but I still urge him to talk with the thought that maybe...

"Did you know about the recent sudden disappearance of bandits around Egginis?

"Ah, I know.I've been doing a lot of research on your daughter. "

Nicky, who had enjoyed his meal while listening to him, heard Ray's words and said so.

"Hmm, I don't think I remember hearing about it from Nicky before."

"No, you explained it properly, right?... anyway, it's starting to get rumored that bandits around Egginis are suddenly disappearing. "

"Are you starting to get sick? That's a long story.I heard that the bandits had been gone for a long time.... oh, of course you don't recognize the disappearing bandits as residents of Egginis. "

Bandits disappear, and that's what makes bandits who work around Egginis so sensitive to rumors that they're in danger.

Compared to that, if you are a resident of Egginis, it is important for your life that the bandits disappear, but if you are a resident, it is also important in terms of other people's affairs.

... if I were to make it a workshop that actually sells golem, it wouldn't be very difficult, but it wouldn't be other people.

However, as Ray experienced today, bandits can be replenished as soon as they disappear.

With that in mind, I can't help but notice that Egginis residents are missing bandits.

"What happened so long ago?

"Ah... just as many or as many bandits are coming to Egginis as the bandits have disappeared.That's enough to make you feel unnatural. "

"That's...."

I guess Nikki thought something was wrong with Ray's words.

Marka also opened her mouth strangely.

"Does that mean someone is deliberately bringing bandits to Egginis?

Marka nods to see if anyone around Ray is eavesdropping on her words.

Rey was relieved that Ray's conversation could not be heard by those around him while the distance between the table was open.

"Oh, that's possible."

"But what do you do that for?

"If you know that, you won't have to struggle.Of course, it's not free to do something like this.It takes money and time.... on the contrary, if they know that they are intentionally gathering bandits in Egginis, they will surely be captured by the guards. "

In that case, it would be strict as to why they did such imitations... and in some cases torture.

(In other words, it's not very good, but I don't think I would do something like just a pleasant criminal.I mean, there's some kind of purpose and I'm imitating it.)

I can think of that, but why do we need to bring the bandits here?Thinking about it, I can't think of anything against it.

"What makes you think there's a reason to gather bandits to Egginis?

"Hmm, that's right.The first possible reason is that it is likely that some nobleman sent it. "

"Aristocrats.... that's possible."

Even with Gilm's expansion, the aristocrats have been in the way many times.

Ray dealt with the obstruction several times, and eventually Elena, the princess general who was the symbol of the aristocracy, arrived, so the obstruction finally disappeared.

I can't deny that Ray is doing something to keep Elena from being found without Ray knowing it, but there's no more interference.

Against Egginis, the possibility of the nobility reaching out for something is well conceivable.

"We were talking about making money in the Golem industry.Isn't it strange that someone wants to make Egginis their own territory rather than an autonomous city?In that case, it is the nobility adjacent to Egginiss that is suspicious..... "

"Hmm, that's not true.My concubine told me that if you only collect bandits, it's possible, but what do you think about the disappearance of the bandits?

I see.I don't know where it is. "

"Ah, so this is what this is all about?Some nobles are trying to take away the Egginis, while others are trying to prevent it, and there is a dark fight between them.... I think it's possible. "

If that's the case, I think Ray is also a possibility.

I think there is still a reason why I can't nod honestly.

"If it's the aristocrats who are defeating the bandits, why don't you tell the public about it?If we open up the area, we can blame the nobles who are working on Eggzinnis from the front. "

"Does that mean... you don't have that much solid evidence?

"Still, if you're a nobleman, there's something else you can do.... isn't it?

"I won't deny it."

Only the daughter of the Duke of Quentin, Marca, knows all about the nobility.

From Marka's knowledge, there were many ways to impeach the opponent without evidence.

"Anyway, the biggest problem is that the bandits are disappearing.... the information I heard came from the bandits, and they didn't have the details, and so would the residents of Egginis.Then there might be complications. "

As he murmured, Ray reached out for a meal.
