Legend

Concom, I hear a knock on the reception room.

Ray replies to such a knock that he can come in.

When I heard that, I came into the room... the man Ray had never seen before.

At my age, I am in my 30s.

Thin eyes on the elongated face that reminds me of a fox.

Now that you have a fox ear growing from your head, it's not strange to recognize you as a fox beast.

The man smiles when he sees Ray.

However, the smile seemed to Ray like a smile because he understood that he was more advantageous.

In fact, Ray doesn't know what he thinks of a man... who's probably gabby.

I'm just saying that it seemed that way if I tried to be Ray.

I've heard about Anne and the director, and it's probably a preconceived idea... but it's only natural that Ray didn't get a good impression when he saw a guy who thought he was gabby.

"I'm Gerby. What do you mean, my men did it on their own? I'm sorry."

After all, the man in front of me was convinced that it was Gerby, and the words that came out of his mouth were predictable to Ray.

At first, I would have given orders to my men to make Seto their own, but I understood the overwhelming strength of Ray and Seto.

Now that I understand, I've decided that I can't be hostile to Ray here, and I think I've managed to get through this.

Nevertheless, Ray doesn't have to follow it, even though he understands the other person's thoughts.

"On your own? That's what I heard from those guys.That's what I heard you ordered.Are you just thinking about your own safety by cutting off your subordinates because they are beyond your control? "

"No, I don't remember giving such an order.They must have acted on their own accord.Otherwise, I wouldn't bother to do such a thing.... "

"Heh, do you think that's gonna help if you pretend you don't know?"

"Even if you say so, I don't remember you here."

Gerby laughs and tells her in trouble.

If it had been Bourdon, I would have managed with such a gabby attitude.

That's because there aren't many people in Bourdon who can say strongly to Gerby, given Gerby's strong influence.

However, only this time, the opponent is bad.

"Hee, don't you remember?In that case, we still need to behave accordingly, but you don't mind? "

Garby reacts instantly to the words "appropriate attitude."

I wonder what Ray would have done.

"If so, what exactly is it?"

"Well, I don't know. Wouldn't that be a punishment?"

It was Ray who answered Garby's question, but he didn't really decide what to do in the current situation.

Specifically, because it is Egginis that deals with Bourdon, will you tell Roger about this through Jarlis Workshop, one of the major Egginis, and close the deal?

But that doesn't make sense unless Jarlis Workshop is dealing with Garby's Chamber of Commerce.

What else could it be, like attacking Garby's Chamber of Commerce warehouse or something?

Of course Ray will be suspicious, but there's nothing we can do without evidence.

Even if Gerby tried to sue the guards in the first place, it's still difficult because Gerby is doing something dark behind him.

However, given Gerby's influence in Bourdon, perhaps we can do something about it.

(Later... yes. As a Rank A Adventurer, do you report anything suspicious that Garby is doing around the Egginis Guild?Or you can apply pressure through Dusker and Elena.)

Let's try Ray, there are other ways to do it.

If he's convinced, he looks a little puzzled about what Garby thought about Ray.

That's what the chimpanzee thought he could do in Bourdon with Garby.

But of course, Gerby knows the outside world better than those pussies.

And Ray is a high-ranking adventurer with a different name.

Or maybe you know something like being a Rank A Adventurer.

Because such a person has a meaningful smile on his face, I don't suppose Gabby could have left it as it was, even though he thought it might be a bluff.

"What the hell are you thinking?"

"Well, what is it? It's just... yeah.Well, I'll just say that I don't mind if something happens that makes you sad.The Duke came out... no, nothing. "

"Eh!?"

Of course, the Duke Ray talked about didn't slip his mouth.

That's what I thought was enough to hold Gerby back.

In fact, Garby is upset to see the Duke.

Normally, the Duke is the highest ranking aristocrat.

It's like there's only a royal family up there.

That's why Garvey couldn't make a fool of Ray's words.

Garby has a lot of influence in this city called Bourdon.

But in the end, it's the only force that works in this boulder.

If there were to be a Duke in that... it would be like a dragon to defeat an orc.

Gerby knew exactly what he was.

Not to mention that, as far as Garby knew, an adventurer named Ray should have been the daughter of the Duke of Kelvin and connected to Elena, alias Princess General.

In this case, the Duke that Ray talked about is the Duke of Kelvin.

It is said to be particularly powerful in the Duke's family, so it is impossible to imitate such an opponent.

If so... then Gerby finds out where Ray is.

In the meantime, in fact, Egginis had a Quentin Duchess lady named Marca Quent, and it was lucky in a way that she didn't know that Marca had a friendly relationship with Ray.

"What... do you want?"

The first time I saw Ray, there was no more despicable gaze.

The line of sight that sees Ray is the one I can't beat anyway.That perception had changed.

Because I knew Ray would be able to move the Duke's house.

"Hmm? You're giving up already?"

It breaks a little faster, doesn't it?And Ray wonders, asking in the sense of provocation.

However, Garby opened her mouth with a grudging look at Ray.

"How would you like to say something like that while you bring out a substitute for the Duke?And it hurts a lot about Jarlis Workshop. "

"Well, if you know about the area, that's fine.... well, then... that's right. You don't have to waste any time, and ask straightforward questions.Why did you enslave Anne from the orphanage? "

"That's because... of course, I liked the look."

"Seems like you're selling it off to Egginis as a slave right now, rather than keeping it with you?"

It was Garby who was stuck in Ray's words for a moment, but he still opened his mouth immediately.

"I liked the look, but not the personality.That's what it is. That's why I sold them out before they thought they were bad. "

I see.

Garby is relieved to see Ray nodding and that he has managed.

It relieves me... but it's also a fact that it was a little early to do such a imitation.

"Let me ask you something. Are you sure that's the answer to my question?"

"Yes, of course."

"... really? The answer to that question depends on what happens next.Are you sure that's the answer? "

I mean it.

Gabby saw Ray's eyes, and that's all he had to say.

I don't know, I don't know, until I know exactly what I mean, but I still firmly understand that if I make a mistake here, it's doom.

There was only one thing Gerby could do now that I understood it.

Dolan Workshop is asking for you.

"... I see."

Listen and understand why Garby did such a imitation.I understand, but the name that came out of the mouth was definitely unexpected.

Ray also thought that maybe Dolan Workshop might be involved during the time of this incident.

But it was certainly unexpected to Ray that it might only be possible to do so.

(This adds credibility to your expectation that you are using human materials to make golem.But... why Anne?)

When I hear about the request from Dolan Workshop, I wonder.

For example, like Goliath, who is currently missing in Egginis, I can predict that if he is capable as an adventurer... in other words, if he has high physical abilities, he will be excellent as a material.

But Anne is just a woman working in an orphanage.

Actually, I don't work in an orphanage, but I don't do adventurers behind my back.

At least, from what Ray saw, it was clear that Anne's way of moving her body was not like she was training.

Then why use Anne as a material?

(If you can imagine... compatibility?Not everyone can use it as a material?No, but then I don't know why the bandits are missing one after the other)

Bandits can sometimes imitate the adventurer of Egginis or the Alchemist's defeat as a performance test for the Golem, but there is no doubt that a significant number of them have disappeared.

That being said, if Dolan Workshop had used people as materials to make the Golem, it would have been definitely using bandits.

It was Ray who thought a lot, but I don't know why Dolan Workshop wanted Anne.

(Maybe I actually had a strong magical talent just because I didn't notice?)

Although Ray has enormous magic, he doesn't have the ability to feel the magic of others.

That said, even if Anne had the potential to be a wizard and possess magic, she would not be able to detect it.

"Again, was it really a request from the Dolan Workshop?You know what happens when something goes wrong, don't you? "

"Of course, this was definitely a request from Dolan Workshop.I want you to sell me a woman named Anne. "

"Did you ask Gerby to do this because of his influence in Bourdon?"

"I think so. Besides, the orphanagers wouldn't have nodded first had they told me to sell Anne as a slave.So turn your hand and let the orphanage be in trouble with the money..... "

Wait a minute.

It was an unexpected word for Ray that came out of Gerby's mouth.

As it turns out, Ray thought it was only recently that Gerby got a request from the Dolan Workshop.

However, from what we've been talking about, Dolan Workshop wanted Anne for a long time.

"Isn't that the recent request from Dolan Workshop for Anne?"

"Huh? Yeah, it's been a long time."

"... is that why Gerby stopped supporting the orphanage after he became president of the Chamber of Commerce?"

"That's how it will be. Of course, even without a request from Dolan Workshop, the aid to the orphanage would not be in the interest of the Chamber of Commerce, so I think it would have stopped anyway."

In terms of profits, there is no doubt that assistance to orphanages will improve the reputation.

But you didn't think that such a reputation was necessary for Gerby.

Even without such a reputation, they have a strong influence in Bourdon.

It's not really a mistake, but isn't it casual to try Ray? I have such thoughts.

I don't know exactly how much assistance I was providing, but it wouldn't have been such a big deal for Gerby's Chamber of Commerce.

Still, if I were to use it as a gabby, I would only have thought it was a waste of money.

With that in mind, Ray wondered what had happened to Anne, knowing that Dolan Workshop had been watching Anne longer than expected.
