"Waw......"

The leading wolf sounds like that when he sees Ray.

Seeing such a wolf, Ray understood why Seto was not in danger.

Because these wolves were the wolves Ray encountered in this Trent forest today.

It wasn't just a wolf either, it wasn't weird when you were thin and starving to death, those wolves.

At first it was Ray who thought I'd take him down if he seemed to attack me, but the wolves who saw how skinny and thin he was and pitied him and gave him pork meat.

The meat of the pigs that Ray gave him was a good amount, but still not enough to inflate the bellies of all the hungry wolf herds... Still, the wolves ate that meat and quenched the hunger for a first time, they left before the Rays.

Why is such a wolf in a place like this?

I thought so for a moment Ray, but the scent drifts around me...... I could tell the answer right away if I could smell the scent of Nielsen's purchased luggage at Gilm that stimulates his appetite drifting from a skewered bag.

The wolf's sense of smell is very sharp.

If there was a scent in Trent's woods that stimulated this kind of appetite...... and if you were hungry, it wasn't so strange to be drawn to that smell and come this far

"What do we do, Nielsen? Looks like these guys came over here attracted to the smell of your skewers."

"Huh?"

To Ray's words, Nielsen is surprised… and immediately convinced.

Given the current situation, it was clear that Ray's words accurately represented the current situation.

Still lucky for Nielsen and the others that the werewolves who came attracted by the smell of skewering didn't come under attack without question?

Is that luck because the wolves remembered the Rays existed... or because they had fairies like Nielsen in front of them?

Ray didn't even know why around there, but he was lucky that the werewolves still didn't attack him without question.

I was lucky...... the question would be what to do with this situation right now.

I'm in a strange adhesive state with a bunch of wolves that wouldn't be strange if I were to attack them right now, but I don't think that's going to last.

For example, it was necessary to move the current situation somehow.

... but there are not many ways to do something about the situation right now.

"Nielsen, why don't you do that skewer to the wolves?

"Huh? Hey, seriously? I bought this skewer, didn't I?

Though Nielsen so disputed Ray's suggestion. In fact, it was Dusker who gave out the gold, and Ray who bought the skewer with that gold.

In that sense, Nielsen's words were misguided... but not if he's saying that now.

No, a bunch of wolves is more than a monster or anything. If you fight, Ray wins.

I knew that, but still, given the current situation, as Ray, I didn't want to hurt the wolves if I could.

I saved him from starvation by giving him pork meat, but if he attacks me here again, I need to take that life.

Of course, given this current situation, if it strikes, we'll have to deal with it.

Still... and that's what I thought.

(Do you want a skewer in my mistering?

Naturally, Ray's mysteries contain tons of dishes.

That's the hundreds of skewers... no, it's not strange to have enough to reach a thousand.

That's not the skewer I just bought today, it's the skewer I've been buying and collecting.

In fact, the skewer grill I bought is consumed with a lot of momentum, so if the number of copies I've bought so far is thousands... no, it's not strange that it's in 10,000 units.

"So, what are we gonna do? I don't think those werewolves are going to go back any farther than they came here smelling this?

"It's..."

To Ray's inquiry, Nielsen worries a little... eventually reluctantly, really reluctantly, but opens his mouth.

"You can't help it. If this happens, we'll have to be ready."

That's a surprise word for Ray, too.

Because fighting a bunch of wolves seemed like what I was saying.

The fairies are actually free to use the transfer and carry out powerful attacks in the name of pranks.

Given its strength, Ray can also predict enough that he will be able to deal with it somehow even if he fights the wolves.

But the words that came out of Nielsen's mouth at the next moment were not what Ray expected.

"Rabinara, can you please? I'd like to convince those wolves."

"Er... I'll do it -?

Rabinara whines in a relaxed manner, even though she is in front of a herd of wolves.

Not very much, but seeing such a rabbinara didn't seem to have the power to manage the situation now.

Still, Nielsen relies on it in this situation... I'm pretty sure it has more than just the strength to do something about this situation right now than it leaves full trust to it too.

(In the meantime, do you want to see the arrangement?... sucks, you can do it if you want to do something over here)

It was a pretty smart wolf leading this pack of wolves.

That's why you'll remember Ray, who naturally gave me pork meat today.

And on Ray's side there is Ceto, and if there is more to Ceto than being a wolf, there should have been no such thing as a detour to Ray... and an attack on the fairy.

"I can't help it.... Here, here, here."

Rabinara slowly approaches the wolf as he utters his words.

The wolf looks at such a rabbinara in wonder...... that's all.

(Is that it? Whatever the attack, don't you roar or something like that?

Ray was questioning how the wolf looked against Rabinara, but Rabinara speaks to the wolf without looking at all concerned about such a question of Ray.

"Here, here. You know what I'm saying, don't you?

To Rabinara's words, the wolf doesn't seem to react to anything in particular.

He doesn't attack, but that's why he doesn't listen to Rabinara very much.

(What happens?... or what are you doing? Tamer, you have abilities?

If you're Tamer, it's not like you can follow a wolf.

Of course, the ability to be Tamer is very rare, and if Ray had told me that I could do something about it so easily, I wouldn't have known that either.

That's why I was watching a series of movements with interest...

"Oh?"

Unexpectedly, Rabinara makes a bewildered voice.

Ray also understood what that voice meant.

Somehow, the wolf leading the herd moved his face unexpectedly.

It also opens its mouth, not like following Rabinara.

"Gaw!"

The bark is clearly full of frustration.

Not very much, but it didn't seem like a success to Tame.

... Though Ray only expected Tame, and Ray doesn't know what Rabinara was actually doing.

"Is that it? Um, this girl...... it's a little unusual. It's quite willing-"

"Huh!? Hey, hey, Rabinara! If you can't do something about those wolves, what are you gonna do with this I bought you!

"Even if you tell me that, I'm in trouble -"

From that word, it doesn't seem very, but troubled.

But still, Nielsen tries to do something about it... and then he turns his gaze to the luggage he buys.

What drifts from it is the smell of stimulating appetite, drifting from freshly baked skewers.

But I tried to hide in that smell, and it also smelled sweet and fragrant.

(This is it!

From that scent, Nielsen thinks of the means to break the status quo.

"Rabinara, do something about those wolves and I'll give you sweet, delicious food."

"Huh!?

Reacting to the words Nielsen...... no, precisely the words sweet and delicious food, Rabinara flies around the immediate vicinity of the wolf leading the herd.

What the hell are you doing? and so those who do not know Rabinara's abilities, including Ray, wondered... the effect of which is quickly to be found.

At first it was a wolf staring at Rabinara with anger, but after ten seconds that anger disappeared.

Rabinara opens her mouth to such a wolf appearance as she looks happy.

"She's a good girl, so I'm not going over there."

"Waw......"

As Rabinara's words prompt, the wolves leading the flock walk away from the spot with the other wolves.

It should be noted that the other wolves left without imitating that Rabinara was hooked during that surgery when he first did something against their leader.

(Not Tamer... you're giving orders to someone like hypnosis or something implicit? Considering I was flying on the side of something's face, did you use scaly powder or something like that?

It is not surprising that only fairies with wings similar to those of insects have scaly powders coming out of their wings.

Most importantly, it was only Ray's prediction, and I didn't know if it would actually happen that way.

"Is this okay?

"Yeah, fine. So... uh, wait a minute."

That said, Nielsen fishes the luggage that was placed on the ground.

... Some fairies looked intrigued to see such a thing, but no way to get their hands on it.

I guess you understand what would happen if you got your hands on Nielsen's stuff.

Only fairies were entrusted with negotiating by the chief, and in fairies Nielsen was treated as a powerful man.

I guess the fact that we can make contact with humans without problems is also why the length appreciated it.

Of course, Nielsen likes pranks too.

You can say it's more engraved on instinct than being a fairy.

Still, I can also imitate things like judging a situation and not playing pranks.

Like when I was negotiating with Dusker.

Such Nielsen, baked sweets out of his luggage...... when he takes the cookies out, he passes one of them to Rabinara.

"This? Hmm, it might smell delicious."

When I hear one cookie, it seems very little.

But the fairy's size is more than just the size of a palm, and even a single cookie gets pretty huge.

Huge than his own face like that...... instead, Rabinara starts eating cookies that are about half the size of his body.

The sound of crispness echoes around, and the face of the rabbinara eating it is happily distorted.

"Delicious."

"Yes, you seem satisfied. Above all.... So, for once, I'd like to ask, do you think that wolf will be here again?

"I don't know. They may or may not come."

Nielsen wonders what to say to Rabinara's vague words.

Nevertheless, even if the wolf came again in the present circumstances, there was ample way to deal with it if it was a fairy.

It's a big deal that I didn't do that as of today because I didn't want to do battle damage to the luggage Nielsen bought.

"... so let's just say that's a good idea. As Nielsen carries the luggage hard..."

"Huh? Hey."

Ray says something to Ray's words. Do so, but Ray listens to it and opens his mouth.

"What are we going to do about the next negotiation? From now on, Nielsen is heading directly to the Guild? I don't think that tastes good."

If Nielsen had gone to the Guild alone, the prank would have likely caused confusion to many in the Guild.

Then naturally, Ray needs to come pick you up.

Happy or unhappy, Ray's request from Dusker is to find the fairy, and that's settled.

I mean, Ray isn't particularly busy with anything right now.

... It's actually true that I have a lot of work to do with the help of building additions, and I need to do things like try to see if I can't use the Dragonias body I asked Grimm for for a magic item...

Still, it's true that the fairy thing, which was the most important thing in the sense of a sudden errand, was largely cleared up.

(Oh, thinking about it, what do you care about accomplishing Dear Dusker's request in one day?... I may not say that I have done more than the negotiations have yet been wrapped up)

While I have some subtle thoughts, Ray's gaze is directed at Nielsen...

"Um, yeah. If you come by about noon tomorrow, I'll decide what to do then."

"It's not too late noon, it's before noon... well, somehow I know why"

I thought maybe Nielsen would like to have the lunch he was eating, and that's what he told me.
