Legend

When Ray decided to go to Bourdon, where the orphanage was located, the first thing to do was to rendezvous with Seth and Camilla.

It is only natural that Seth should be able to move to Bourdon.

Fortunately, Seto stands out.

Once Ray and Lindy got to the main street, they could easily find Seth.

"Ah, Lindy! What happened to Anne!?"

Camilla was eating skewers on Seto's back, but when she saw Lindy, she immediately asked.

Naturally, Camilla's appearance was a reason for the people around her to look at Lindy in a meaningful way, but Camilla looked at Lindy in a way that seemed irrelevant.

But when Lindy approaches Camilla like that, she shakes her neck sideways.

"I went to the biggest slave shop in Egginis, but Anne wasn't there.However, the person at the store is kind and gathers a lot of information on our behalf. "

In fact, he wasn't kind, he had a strong side of his intentions... but he decided he didn't have to tell Camilla.

"Really!? So now we can find Anne's sister?"

"I think it's very likely.That's why I've just finished taking Anne's case, and Ray's going to Bourdon, so I'll write to her.... okay? I also write that Camilla is coming to Egginis, so be prepared to get angry when you get back. "

Ugh

Lindy's words were a very painful substitute for Camilla.

It's only natural to think what happens when you return to the orphanage.

If you think about the current situation, it's definitely tough... and that's why it's not strange to be scolded the hardest I've ever been scolded.

In fact, thanks to Camilla's presence, I learned about Anne and was able to respond quickly... even if I thought about it, it was certainly true that Camilla was innocent.

Of course, Camilla was definitely trying to manage the current situation in the orphanage, and in reality she was able to inform Lindy about Anne, and even though she was accidentally helped by Ray being with her, she was able to get help from the largest slave merchant in Exinis today.

With that in mind, Camilla's behavior was never wrong.

But... if I were an adult in an orphanage, I wouldn't be surprised if I had the worst ending in my head.

With that in mind, there was no doubt that Camilla would be severely scolded.

"Don't worry... whatever I say, Camilla told me when I went to the orphanage that I could find Anne.That would reduce the time for sermons somewhat. "

"Really!?"

For Camilla, Ray's words today were nothing more than salvation.

Given the current situation, it was also true that we had to rely on Ray.

"Oh, it's true. That's why you should ask Lindy to write you a letter.If you can write letters, you can write them yourself. "

That being said, Ray expected that maybe Camilla wouldn't be able to write.

The literacy rate in this world is quite high.

For example, in the case of adventurers, if they can't read the letter, they must ask someone what exactly the request is on the request board.

But first thing in the morning... when a requisition is placed on the requisition board, you can't afford to imitate it like that.

It's only natural that everyone is gathering in the guild for a good job.

They're trying to get their jobs even if they push other adventurers.

That way, someone at the party can read the letters, or... the busy morning hours are over, and the Guild staff or someone has to read what kind of requests are left on the board.

But there is a good reason for the request to remain.

Cheap compensation, high risk, or very cumbersome requests.

If this is a skilled request, you may judge that you can expect rewards and rewards from a high-risk request, but an adventurer who can't read is usually a low-ranking adventurer who has just become an adventurer.

For that reason, adventurers will naturally learn to write, given that they want to receive a rewarding request at all, or fail a request because they cannot read what is written in the request form.

Life... no, sometimes life and death are involved, so adventurers are desperate.

That is not how desperate it is for students to study in Japan.

Nevertheless, it was just an adventurer... no, I didn't think Ray would ever think that a child like Camilla would be able to read and write when he was older.

In the first place, Camilla has a better personality running around than studying.

As expected, Camilla nodded deeply at Ray's words and asked Lindy to write in her place.

"Okay, I'll go. Don't worry, I'll definitely give you the letter.If possible, I'll be back in Exinis by the end of the day.If there's nothing going on over there. "

Ray tells Lindy and Camilla, who have come to see him off, that he has completed the process of leaving the city in front of the gates of Egginis.

Lindy nods seriously at Ray's words.

Originally, Lindy still wanted to go to Bourdon.

Nevertheless, the presence of the seto cage is noticeable, so if it causes trouble to the orphanage, there is no reason to use it bypass.

However, it is very unlikely that he will grab Seto's foot and move as Ray suggested.

Worst case scenario, Lindy might be able to handle it, but Camilla can't help it.

Because I knew that, I decided to give up on this case.

I was able to leave a letter with Ray describing the situation, so it's probably a big one.

"Please, everything."

He nodded to Lindy, saying so, and Ray went to Bourdon with Seto.

"No, it looks like nothing has arrived.This was a little unexpected. "

Ray murmurs as he looks at the Bourdon on the ground.

To be honest, I even thought that if I thought of myself as a troublemaker, maybe something would happen by the time I went to Bourdon.

However, in fact, I arrived without any problems at all, so it wasn't strange that I felt like I was out of control.

Nevertheless, normally speaking, it's only natural.

"Grrrrrrrr?"

Get down on the ground? Seth snorts his throat.

Ray strokes Seth's back like that, asking him to do it.

Seth descends to the ground.

Bourdon's guards looked at the huge opponent that had descended from the sky and stood up aggressively.

Basically, there aren't many monsters around here, and there aren't many animal species near the city.

Still, just in case, I was the gatekeeper, so if the enemy came from above, there was no doubt that we had to deal with it.

"The enemy...?"

I suppose that's what the gatekeeper wanted to shout!

However, if you look closely at the falling monsters, there was something familiar about them.

... no, it's not that familiar, and once Seto sees it, he won't be able to easily forget it from that intense impression.

Not to mention, seeing Ray on the back of the set, I couldn't help but remember helping children like Camilla a a little while ago.

"Um... it was Ray, wasn't it?And your Griffon is Seto.What can I do for you? "

Lower your spear and one of the gatekeepers asks Ray.

If this is Egginis, it's no surprise that there are quite a few people waiting to enter the city, but this Bourdon is a big city, but it's a country town and so on.

However, there were not many people entering and leaving the city, and even if Ray and the others wanted to enter the city in that sense, there was no need to wait in turn.

"Oh, I'm in an orphanage."

Orphanages.

As soon as the words came out of Ray's mouth, a mix of emotions appeared, such as sadness, dissatisfaction, anger, frustration... between the two gatekeepers.

That meant I knew about Anne.

While convinced of the state of the gatekeepers, Ray questions them.

"So Camilla came to Egginis to tell us about Anne and protect her with Lindy... why did you let Camilla through?"

Normally speaking, Camilla is still a child.

It was the same when I first met Ray and the others, but why is it so easy to get out of town?

That was a pure question for Ray.

Ray's doubts must have poked the gatekeepers in pain.

In trouble, one of the gatekeepers opens his mouth.

"Looks like there's a couple of places I can get out of town.Children are good at finding places like that. "

"Uh... yeah, I see."

Ray was convinced by the gatekeeper's words.

As a child, Ray also found a place to enter a factory near elementary school, and with his friends he entered the factory premises and built a secret base.

Beyond that experience, I could understand what the doorman said. Yes, but.....

"Doesn't that taste bad?"

"Ah, it's bad. A merchant or someone with luggage can't use it first, but it could be used enough in the sense that bandits enter the city."

"Does that mean you can't go through the place right now?"

"That's it.... Still, did Camilla arrive safely in Egginis..."

One of the gatekeepers muttered, feeling relieved from the bottom of his heart.

The other nodded in agreement with the words.

The child leaves Bourdon alone and goes to Egginis.

It is because I am convinced as a gatekeeper that it is unlikely to succeed.

Ray nodded at the gatekeepers' words.

"I'm waiting with Lindy in Egginis right now.If it's true, I wanted to bring you here when I came, but I couldn't do it for you. "

"Still, I should be glad Camilla's safe.Thank you so much. "

Ray went through the process of entering the city, thanking the gatekeeper.

Well, let's start with the orphanage.

Ray, who entered the bourdon, naturally went first to the orphanage.

In the first place, it's only natural that I came to Bourdon to give you the letters I got from Lindy about Camilla and looking for Anne.

Besides, I was hoping to find out what a guy named Gerby was thinking about doing this kind of imitation.

Ray now has many problems, such as the disappearance of bandits and the raid from the Dolan workshop.

However, even in such a situation, I couldn't leave Anne alone.

There is a strong side around here that I moved from myself because I knew Anne.

"Gruuuuuuuu"

Do you understand that Seth, who is going next to Ray, is going to go to the orphanage? She snorts her throat and agrees with Ray's words.

Normally, Seth is in a place where he can play with himself, so it's no wonder he looks happy.

The reason why she doesn't seem so happy is because she understands that it's not a good time to be happy in the current situation.

As he walked down the road... while the inhabitants of Bourdon turned a surprise gaze, Ray and Seth finally saw the intended orphanage ahead of them.

Oh, my God.

Looking at the orphanage, Ray wonders a little.

Because I heard children playing in the orphanage yard.

Aren't the kids thinking a lot about Anne?And that's what Ray thought.

But the voices I heard were undoubtedly children's playful voices.

If this was a crying voice, Ray would have understood that the children were crying over Anne's absence.

In that sense, I don't think it's bad that the kids aren't sad, but why aren't they sad about Anne?and wondering, Ray went into the orphanage with Seto.
