Legend

The discussion between Orban and Ray began with Orban lowering his head with a word of appreciation.

This is impossible under normal circumstances.

The impossible in this case is that Orban, whom Nina knows, does not imitate lowering his head so easily, and besides that, the act of lowering his head at the beginning of the discussion is impossible.

Such imitation would naturally hand over ownership to the other party.

This is not a place for negotiation, it is a place for discussion.

However, it is true that it is by no means preferable to give the other party the lead.

Even if Ray and Alban were in a friendly relationship, that shouldn't have changed.

Of course, Orban knew that as the leader of the storm and snow, but there is no doubt that there is some point in lowering his head like this.

Nina, sitting next to Orban, tried to read Orban's thoughts in that way... but never thought of hatred and why.

... in fact, Orban lowered his head to Ray not because he had some sort of feeling, but because he really appreciated it from the bottom of his heart.

If Ray hadn't been here, we wouldn't have had to figure out how much damage he'd suffered in last night's raid.

The conversation between Ray and Orban continued around the confused Nina.

"There's no doubt Dolan Workshop set it up, but the assassins who broke in weren't hired unilaterally, so they wanted to get rid of the snow and the wind."

"That's right. In fact, no assassins have been dispatched from organizations with a friendly relationship with Snow and Wind, nor have they received a request to do so.They must have called us from the beginning, other than the organization we were close to. "

"Was there a friendly organization in the snowstorm?"

"Of course. What does Ray think of us?"

It was an Orban that seemed unconvinced by Ray's words, but Ray naturally returned the words.

"Isn't that the biggest assassin guild in Egginis?... that's why I thought there was no friendly organization.I know what you're talking about in the lower tissue. "

"There's a lot going on here."

Ray's words may not be perfect, but maybe he was poking at Orban's star, and Orban slightly strayed away from Ray.

"Don't worry about it.... the question is, what do we do now?Did you find the guy who's connected to the Dolan Workshop while he's running Egginis?You said we'd leave your investigation to the blizzards, right? "

As for Ray, I don't want to wait any longer to gather information than the Dolan Workshop has become so futile.

If you think someone is suspicious, you should beat them up even before the evidence is consolidated.

Naturally, if such imitations were made, they would be problematic.

What happens if Ray uses connections with Dascar, Elena, Marina, etc., and learns about the truth about the Dolan Workshop by those who used to move Egginis before that... specifically, by summoning bandits, using illegal slaves, or by putting their souls at the core of the Golem by a necromancy ritual...

Normally, he would have managed not to rub it away.

However, if such an imitation is to be made in this situation, the first thing is to seal the mouths of those who know the secret.

Naturally, Ray is also present in it.

Instead of actually knowing the secret, Dolan Workshop has an altar that was used in Necromancy rituals.

With that state, it is impossible to imitate the way those who are moving the egginis seal their mouths.

Above all, one of the exquisite movers, Robert, is on Ray's side... exactly.

That's why, in the current situation, we can't imitate eliminating extra rays.

Not to mention the snowstorms Ray told us about Dolan's secret.

Not only Ray, but also the choice of turning Snow and Wind, the biggest assassin guild in Egginis, into enemies would be unusual.

"I don't think it's a problem to imitate it quite aggressively."

"That's right. That's what I'm going to do."

"... is that so?"

Even though I thought my opinion would be rejected, Ray was a little surprised by Orban's words.

Ray and I had quite a conversation, but at the same time, Ray had the perception that he was cautious.

"Ah, if you leave me alone, I'll scratch the name of the snow and wind."

Oh, I see.

I suppose it means that it can't be left intruding into the wind and snow.

If we catch him or find out from the corpse where the assassin belongs, there's no doubt that we'll be chasing him.

But the assassins who broke in last night are the only ones behind the Dolan Workshop and the ones pulling the thread behind it.

Orban is trying to crush the people who instructed him.

(If you don't do that, the name of the wind and snow that was broken into by the enemy will remain scratched.I don't know much about that area, but if that's what Alban says, I guess so.Besides, it's easier for me to move things forcefully than to waste time like this.)

Ray doesn't want to cause a big disturbance on his own.

However, given the current situation, it is a fact that such a conversation would proceed more quickly.

I'm not going to stop Ray from doing that.

"So we were talking about going to force them, but what exactly do we do?Are we going to get in the front now? "

"That would be very difficult.I told you I was going to force you to go, but I'm not going to frighten the residents of Egginis for nothing.Isn't that the same with Ray? "

"That's... well, yeah."

Ray is hostile only to the mainstream facade of the Dolan Workshop and those behind it, not to the city of Eggdinis.

... some of the guards actually thought they were the adventurers who attacked the Jarris Workshop or were being bought by the Dolan Workshop.

Beyond being meaningless to say in detail, it is, by and large, the Dolan Workshop and the people behind it.

Nina, who is next to Orban, is also relieved.

It was really helpful for Orban to turn down Ray's offer because he thought he would be very busy negotiating if he did something like punch a suspicious opponent where he lived right now, as Ray said.

Nevertheless, given the current situation, it can't be made longer.....

"So what do we do? I think it will take time for the snow and wind to attack but not fight back."

"I know. I didn't say I wouldn't do anything.... tonight. We're going to raid tonight.Doubtful... well, there's evidence of the situation, first of all, that somebody definitely thinks it's the real killer.I wanted to check the evidence and then attack. "

"I'll take care of that.Try to negotiate with some organizations in exchange for the prisoners.Hopefully... "

"Can you do that?"

"Yes, I will do my best."

Ray was listening to Orban and Nina talking, are you sure that's all right? I doubt it.

As for the people who broke into the snowstorm area, it was because they didn't know who asked for it.

Or even if I arrived at the Dolan Workshop, I heard stories that I couldn't reach the person behind it, and Ray probably did.

In such a situation, can we reach the mastermind's location after negotiating with the organization, as Nina said?

Yes, it was natural for Ray to wonder.

... but it wasn't strange for Ray to hold his tongue here, since Orban said he could trust Nina.

Tonight.

"That's what I'm going to do. Can you think of Ray's help?"

"Of course. If you let them do whatever they want in this situation, they won't know what to do next."

They raided the Jarris workshop, bribed the guards, failed to capture it, and tried to capture Ray, who came to help.

Raging the Golem in Slam City, and in the middle of the night, bringing out the underground digging Golem and hiring an Assassin Alliance that is hostile or not interesting to the snow and wind to infiltrate the snow and wind.

Even now, I can't imagine what kind of attack you're going to make next.

In this case, should I praise Ray for attacking someone he can't imagine, or should I blame him for doing such a stupid imitation?

Regardless, I don't know how to attack them, and it would have never been wrong to attack them instead of defensively in order not to imitate them.

"What kind of means? One of yesterday's events was the Dolan Workshop and the people behind it.Which idea was it? "

In Nina's words, Ray sees a mystery that fits into her right arm.

"Maybe Dolan Workshop."

That's what Ray says. It's still a big deal about the altar that's stored in the misteling.

From the reactions so far, it is easy to predict that the altar Ray has taken is probably quite valuable for the Dolan Workshop.

If it's so precious, it would be nice to have a spare for a time of need.

(Or is there no spare because it is precious?)

If it's valuable because it's expensive, such as paying for it, you can buy a replacement at Dolan Workshop, which is making money from the Golem trade.

But if the altar is a rare kind of magic item that you can't buy even if you pay for it, what about it?

No matter how much money you have, it's impossible to get it even if you don't want to buy it without the altar itself as a commodity.

As Ray, it was in a sense the most ideal development.

If you have an altar, it is unlikely that you will use more souls to create the nucleus of the Golem.

"Dolan Workshop. That's a mess.Behind it is likely that you have acquired the Golem from Dolan Workshop.The Golem used in last night's incident must have been prepared by the Dolan Workshop.It's likely that we'll encounter the Golem of the Dolan Workshop during the raid tonight. "

Orban, who raised his eyebrows slightly, said in disgust.

If you think of Orban, I think this case is really troublesome.

In fact, Ray doesn't disagree with Orban's words either.

The Golem who fought in Slum City had independence, but I didn't think they were that strong.

However, it is likely that this has happened because of the opponent's surprise, or because of their high combat power.

Then, if a weaker opponent encounters the Golem of the Dolan Workshop, the damage will certainly be greater.

(Nevertheless, it is only if you fought properly from the front)

Wind and snow are only assassins, not adventurers.

... some assassins, like the blood-bladed assassins Ray encountered when he came to the slums before, appear to be knights and gracefully attack from the front, but naturally such assassins are a minority.

"In that case, I think I'd better play golem.... in order not to cause extra damage to the snow and wind. "

"It would be helpful if you did that."

As far as Orban is concerned, I'm glad Ray told me that.

Orban naturally believes in the strength of his men.

I believe it, but if I was told if I could win a battle against a Golem made by Dolan Workshop, I couldn't nod honestly.

Beyond that, it was very helpful to Orban that Ray could be expected to help us as a force.

"Okay, thanks for your help.Let's put an end to this disturbance tonight.... but I don't know when it will really end, because I have to move a lot after the disturbance has actually been resolved. "

That's how Orban smiled.
