Legend

"Phew."

Where the alchemists in the guilds are gathered… Place the felled trees where they magically process Trent's forest trees, and Ray, who immediately escapes, exhales in relief.

Alchemists often move with curiosity.

We took fairies to places like that, so that's not what the hell was going on.

Fortunately, the fairy Nielsen is in Ray's dragon robe.

On the contrary, he slept in a dragon robe for comfort thanks to simple air conditioning.

Even as Ray moves his body, he keeps sleeping, so I guess that's all comfort in the dragon robe.

... To be honest, it was Ray who had somewhere to think of Nielsen like that, but that's why it would have definitely been a huge commotion if Nielsen had happened, so I guess it would have helped in that sense.

"Well, it's time for the real thing."

"Mm-hmm. A meeting with Lord Dusker?... Lord Dusker, are you sure you're okay?

Elaine, who did not enter the facility where the alchemists were, hears Ray and tells him so.

If Elaine had been inside the facility, that would have been the reason the alchemists would have approached with interest in Elaine's magic items.

If you were an adventurer or an adventurer encountered in the Trent Forest, you wouldn't have done anything rude to emulate Elaine, but you can't expect that from the alchemists in this facility.

Elaine's connecting sword mirage definitely inspired the curiosity of the alchemists in particular.

In that sense, it must have been natural for Elaine to have waited outside the facility.

"So, how's Nielsen doing? It didn't seem like a commotion, so I don't think there's a problem."

"Oh. I sleep well in my dragon robe.... but it's a question of when to wake up"

If anything happens to Nielsen in this situation right now, he'll be interested anywhere until he heads to the Lords' Hall.

That's not surprising when things like Nielsen flying around the city losing his curiosity......

That's why I want to avoid imitating Nielsen all over the city if I can as Ray.

If you imitate something like keeping Nielsen asleep and wake him up after he arrives in front of Dusker like this, it's likely Nielsen will blame you.

If you try Nielsen, you'll be suddenly woken up in front of the negotiators - the subtleties of whether such perceptions are in person.

Normally, I wouldn't be able to tell Ray not to be dissatisfied in such a situation when he brought himself in.

"Hmm. 'Cause what do you say we get some time before we meet Lord Dusker to get us a room somewhere, and wake Nielsen up there?

"... the quickest part is it after all"

I'm convinced that's all Elaine has to say.

(Why don't you make a birdcage where the fairies can't be transferred to the grimm?... Oh, Grimm. Maybe you could have asked Grimm about the fairy if you said so)

I was really talking about this now, but still, given this one thing, I live longer - I guess the expression dead is more correct than undead - but if you're a grimm, it's no surprise you know something Ray doesn't know about fairies.

(I also wanted to know if I could use Dragonias' body as a material when I left it in the other world, and would you like to put your face in the underground space when this matter is over?...... I wonder if I can take Nielsen to where Anastasia is)

With such doubts, Ray talks to Elaine and Arla, and imitates things like stroking Seto, while aiming at the Lords' Hall.

Some wanted to play with Seto along the way, but I guess Ray was at work... or saw a celebrity named Elaine with him or no one to talk to.

Several people tried to talk to me, but such people are also stopped by people who know what's going on.

Eventually, we arrived at the Lords' Hall…

"No way, I didn't think you were busy with Master Dusker. Thank you for saving me this time."

In a room in the Lords' Hall, Ray squeaks so.

Ray and the others asked to meet with Dasker, who is currently meeting with someone else, so he asked me to wait a moment and was escorted to this room.

"Really? But Lord Dusker is Lord of the Guild. Moreover, many people would like to be entitled to it even if it is under construction. So many would like to see Lord Dusker. In that sense, I don't think it's unusual."

If I tried Elaine, I guess this kind of thing was natural.

Nevertheless, in Ray's case, if you ever came to see Dusker, the majority of the time you could have seen him whenever you wanted.

With that in mind, it was only a little unexpected.

"But the fact that Master Elaine and Lord Ray are here means we won't be seeing each other soon... who's coming? Isn't there an extra big guy coming?

"I guess Ara's right. Anyway, when I have Elaine and Lady Dusker won't be able to see me any time soon... someone from the Kings?

The presence of Elaine is by no means a rough opponent for Dusker either.

Because that is the kind ambassadorial presence from the aristocracy.

… In fact, there is a strong sense of restraint and watchfulness to keep noblemen out of the way of the construction of the Gilm.

More precisely, Elaine would like to see Ray.

Either way, Elaine is definitely an important figure for Dusker as well.

Originally, it's not a marina's house, even though it's in the aristocratic district, so much so that you deserve to sleep in this lord's hall.

However, at the request of Elaine...... and at the request of Marina, who knows Dusker's black history at an early age, the situation was as it is today.

"Ray, shouldn't it be time to wake Nielsen? Now, before Lord Dusker arrives."

"Hmm? Oh, right. Nielsen. Hey, Nielsen. Time to get up."

When Ray takes Nielsen out of Dragon Robe's pocket, he calls him that.

Sleeping in cool air in the middle of the summer, Nielsen opens his eyes shaking over Ray's palms many times.

"Mm-hmm... is that it?

On Ray's palm, Nielsen sees what's going on around him.

What's spreading there is a view I've never seen at all.

Until earlier... I should have been in the Trent Forest until Nielsen fell asleep.

Even so, when Nielsen woke up like that, he was in a place he'd never been before, so it would be more impossible to tell Nielsen not to be surprised.

Nevertheless, Nielsen was surprised by a few seconds, and at the next moment, curiosity prevailed to rarely look around.

"Wow, wow, wow. What, what, what, what, what."

Nielsen flies around the room with his wings flapping and flying around the air.

For Nielsen, who only knows in nature, such as forests and forests, the things that exist in front of him like this right now are probably very rare.

"Relax!... For once, some furniture, pots, paintings, etc. in this room are pretty fancy stuff. You break it, you lose money negotiating."

In fact, Ray doesn't have that kind of aesthetic eye to spot the real thing.

Still, I didn't think Dusker would bother to have fakes in such a place than it was in a room reserved for Ray and Elaine.

Dusker's... No, there was a chance that he could mislead the aesthetic eyes in charge of purchasing these.

However, the aesthetic eye is very sharp only for those who work in a place where rare objects are commonly found.

… although there is a difference between materials and works of art.

"I know. But it's rare, that's fine.... Wow, what is this? Where to hide when something happens?

That being said, Nielsen enters the pot he keeps on the edge of the room.

If you try it on Ray, it doesn't look like a particularly expensive substitute... Still, I can easily predict that it would be worth it as a piece of art or a work of art more than it is placed in this room.

"That's a pot. You're supposed to be the guy who decorates flowers and stuff.... In the first place, it's about Nielsen putting it in a pot like that....... can you put in some yellow too?

"If you want to come in, you'll be able to, because the yellow is just small and curious. If I'd been here, I'd be happy to come in."

That's what Elaine answers to Ray's words.

In fact, there's a lot of yellow flying around in the marina's house... the reason Ray doesn't know much about it is because if Seto comes, Yellow is playing with Seto.

It's a big deal that Yello is exploring the marina's house only because he has no one to play with.

If a friend like Seto comes along, naturally, Yellow doesn't just play on his own, he plays with Seto.

And the size of Seto's body makes it impossible to get inside the marina's house, so the place to play becomes a courtyard.

That's why Ray has never seen a sight of Yellow moving around the marina's house.

"Look, just pick it up. Come back here. There's baked sweets over here."

With all sorts of things at stake in the pot - the pot, not Nielsen's, but - Ray decides to call Nielsen with baked sweets on the table.

I guess Nielsen was more interested in baked confectionery than in playing in the pot.

He travels to the table with his wings flapped.

"Baked confectionery is this? It smells good."

"Oh.... you've never eaten?

"Right. I've never seen it before, and I'm gonna eat it."

Baked confectionery...... Cookies in Ray's perception?

Nielsen has a delightful look at a cookie half the size of his body.

"Agu."

Nielsen on such a giant cookie.

Naturally, more than a cookie, it spills its fragments.

Even that fragment is about the size of your own hand if you try it on Nielsen.

Nielsen is delighted to eat pieces of cookies.

(Looking at it this way, you don't seem like the kind of guy who plays a prank where people could lose their lives)

Nielsen, happily cheeky with cookies, is adorable, albeit modest.

Not very much, but I don't see it as a flavor of the kind of people who are currently playing various pranks in the Trent Forest.

"Delicious?

"Yes!"

A glowing smile probably refers to a smile like this.

With that in mind, Ray eats another cookie himself.

(In the meantime, while Nielsen is obsessed with cookies now, you don't have to worry about things breaking in the room or anything like that.)

Nevertheless, even though the number of cookies is considerable, Nielsen obviously seems to be eating more cookies in bulk than his own body.

Still, the rate of eating at all doesn't fade...... on the contrary, if you see that it doesn't change shape at all, it wouldn't be strange to wonder where the hell the cookies you ate disappeared and yes Ray did.

"Hehe."

I can hear a little laugh in Ray's ear watching Nielsen like that.

Ray, who saw it, was just a little surprised.

Because it wasn't Ara who laughed, it was Elaine.

If this was what Ara laughed at, Ray wouldn't have been so surprised either.

But Elaine is smiling when she sees Nielsen... yes, it's unexpected for Ray, and it's unexpected, which is why she's blinded by Elaine's smile.

Elaine, naturally, turns a curious glance at whether she notices Ray's gaze like that.

"What's up?

"Oh, no. Yeah. Nothing."

Ray drinks tea like a blindfold while distracting his eyes from his golden hair as if the sun's rays had gone straight into his hair, dyeing his thin cheeks red.

Elaine, who asked, has such a strange look on Ray's face.

"Hmm, well....... hmm?

Even as I questioned Ray's condition, I finished talking to Elaine about if Ray would say so, but that gaze is inadvertently directed towards the door.

And then, a moment later, Ray, and when Arla glanced at the door... the sound of knocking on the door eventually sounded in the room.
