Legend

"Ray, Ray. Thank you for waiting."Hey, I was a little busy. "

In the room inside the bureau, Robert lowers his head as he says so.

As for Robert, he probably wanted to see Ray as soon as possible, but he probably had a lot of other work to do.

"Well, seeing the officials busy working, I have no choice but to be convinced."... just Robert and Orban?What happened to Dwanda? "

The only person in the room is Robert.

But Ray knew that the Orban was hiding in the room.

Marka and Nikki, who had guided Ray so far, were waiting outside the room.

That's why I gave him that name, but the next moment, the Orban appears from the shadow of the shelf.

"You see, I was hiding."... Dwanda is undergoing medical treatment.Besides that, I had a lot of other instructions I needed to give to my underlings.I think I'll come when it's over. "

"...... a lot of things."

Ray could somehow understand what exactly the various meanings of this case meant.

Now, Egginis is in quite a turmoil over the necro-golem.

However, as a position to rule Exinis, I had to think about the aftermath of this disturbance.

It is not difficult to predict that Dwanda is not here at the moment.

At the same time... Ray's gaze turned to Robert.

Well, what is it?

Robert looked puzzled at Ray's gaze.

"No, Dwanda is moving a lot now, but is it okay for Robert to keep the noise down?"If you're careful, you won't even know that Dylan and Lucitania are taking all of their interests to Dwanda. "

"Well, don't worry about that."Dwanda-san is not so reckless either. "

"I think Robert's right.Whatever Dwanda is up to here, I don't think it will succeed.... I don't think Dwanda could have done such an imitation before that. "

That's what Orbán tells me to keep following Robert's words.

Ray wants to say something about that, but if you're saying that there's nothing wrong with knowing how Dwanda is moving, then you don't have to bother saying it.

"I don't care if you guys are okay with that."So, for the time being, the necrogorems are down.I burned it far away from Egginis, but it's still in a situation worthy of being called Scorching Hell, is it a corpse... or a wreckage?Anyway, I think it's going to take a little more time to check it out. "

"... I already know, but I'll just ask."Could it be that Ray was responsible for the sudden rise in temperatures around here? ”

"Orban's right.I know the answer, but I don't care if you bother asking questions. "

In response to Ray's words, Orbán's gaze was dazzled, and Robert's stunned gaze.

It's where the crimson nickname comes into play.

Is that a compliment?

"To be precise, half of them were surprised that they were dazed."... you can see that when you look at the Exinis now, right?I'm doing some wreckage removal work in the heat of the heat?If it weren't for this heat, I would have been able to move a little more comfortably. "

"I don't care what you say."It's that necro-golem, isn't it?If he attacked poorly, he sprinkled rotting liquid and filled the surrounding area with poisonous smoke.If you want to defeat such an opponent, it is best to defeat it by burning the decaying liquid and the poisonous smoke itself. "

Although Ray tried to say something to Orban, I couldn't refute the words after seeing the necrogolem's humus and venom.

In fact, if Ray had predicted what would have happened in the city without him, even if the temperature had risen suddenly, I could understand that that would have been the best result.

"Y-yeah, around here." Jesus, the damage Egginis would have suffered if it hadn't been for Ray. "

Although Robert says so, it is also a fact without a doubt.

What would have happened to the Necrogolem if Ray hadn't been there?

But the Necrogolem also became violent because of the Dolan Workshop, and it happened because of Ray's involvement.

Without Ray, one of the Dolan Workshops would not have been revealed, but at the same time it would not have caused such damage to Exgenis.

In that sense, Ray could be the cause of this disturbance.

When I looked at Orbán and Rabel, it was subtle whether I should resent the disturbances that had broken out so far in Exgenis because of Ray's arrival, or whether I should be happy that the crimes that had been hidden had appeared.

"That's right. I'm sure that Ray was the one who managed to make it."... oh, yeah. I forgot to tell you about this.Was there an adventurer named Goliath who was looking for Ray... or Lindy? "

Piccoli, and Ray reacts to Orban's words.

Goliath's name came up in this situation, so that's natural.

Did you find it?

"Yeah, they found me locked up inside the Dolan Workshop."

"... in the Dolan Workshop? The place where the illegal slaves were... no, that said, there was a split way on the way there."Goliath was the one I didn't go to.Did you tell Lindy about this? "

“I already told you, I think we're on our way to where Goliath is.”

"So, why was Goliath locked up at the Dolan Workshop?"Anne and the others... being in a different place from those who were illegal slaves isn't that a sacrifice for the ritual of necromancy, right? "

"I guess so." I hadn't heard the details yet, but it seemed to be quite weakened.I was given only minimal water and food, and I was thin when I found it. "

"Was she thin or thin?"From what I've heard, Goliath is a big guy with big muscles. "

Ray doesn't know what the Dolan Workshop was doing imprisoning Goliath.

However, if a big man with a big muscular bone becomes thin or thin, I wonder what he was doing.

That said, given that Ilnara, a non-mainstream alchemist at Dolan's Workshop, knows nothing about it, it's not necessary to think about what she's doing.

"Anyway, it was definitely safe."Given what they were doing, I'm lucky to be safe. ”

Ray nodded agreeing to the orbans mumbling.

In fact, considering that Goliath was trapped in the Dolan Workshop, where he used the human soul as a necromancy material, it means a lot that Goliath was alive.

“Didn't Goliath tell you what he was doing?”

"It's difficult. It seemed like I could hardly speak."I think I managed to say my name. "

"That's it again... I feel like if you listen to that story around Ilnara, it'll be a lot of trouble again."That said, there are some people who didn't know anything about this Dolan workshop, like Irunara and the others, right? "

"I can't say anything because I haven't done a detailed interrogation, but I'm sure that's true.... but I think there will be quite a few people who knew the circumstances. "

"I-It's a problem from now on."There is no doubt that Dolan's Workshop is going to be more of a problem than this.E-Egginis are also likely to be deprived of their autonomy. ”

That's what Robert said, but it doesn't look serious enough.

No, I'm always showing uneasiness, so if you think about it, it might be close to the street.

"Autonomy. However, if we continue to move Egginis with Dwanda... no, with her successor, it will be quite tough, won't it?"Even in my country, I would not suddenly send anyone out of nowhere. "

I wish Ray had become the lord of Egginis after all.

How's it going?

The words that came out of Robert's mouth were completely unexpected to Ray.

Ray's mouth leaked out from between them.

Along with Ray's words, a similar slurred voice leaked out from Orban's mouth.

"I'm the lord? What could I possibly do?"There's no way I can rule the city. "

"Well, if Ray doesn't have to do anything politically, you can leave it to the others."Hee, all we need is a track record of defeating the Necgolore.But if something like this happens again, it's a big deal to have someone who can handle it. "

Robert's tone sounds like he's serious, not half a joke.

At least from Ray's eyes, it looked like that.

As a matter of course, Ray has no intention of doing anything like that.

"I don't know if you're serious or joking, but I'll tell you something.I'm not going to be an aristocrat, nor am I going to use this Exinis as a base.I'm only based in Gilm. "

For Ray, Gilm is like a second home.

No, as long as I can't come to Elgin and return to Japan, Gilm is definitely Ray's only home.

Besides being home, being on the edge means a lot to Ray.

There were unknown monsters on the edge, and the magic stone could strengthen Set and Death Size.

The proximity to the Enchanted Forest was a big reason in this case.

... but basically, the Magic Forest is forbidden to enter without special permission from the lord or guild.

It wasn't like someone was watching to avoid entering the Demon Forest, so in the case of Ray and Set, I could fly into the Demon Forest normally.

There were many powerful monsters in the demon forest, and many monsters were struggling even with Ray and Set, so I couldn't go to the demon forest without ease.

Besides that, because it's on the periphery, there are many special materials and monster meat in circulation.

In Gilm, oak meat is one of the common meats.

But that was also the sight of the periphery.

Of course, even outside the periphery, orcs may emerge quite often, but in terms of numbers, there are overwhelmingly more at the periphery.

"Oh, is that so?" I'm sorry to hear that. "

Looking at the state of Ray, I decided that I could not imitate Ray as the lord of Exgenis, but Robert looked sorry as he said.

(I don't know if you were serious or joking... but if you were serious about this, you'd be in a lot of trouble.)

As for Ray, he didn't think about becoming a lord at all.

I didn't think I could do such an imitation, and above all, given the state of this bureau, I don't like it very much, but I don't want to be a lord.

That's why, as Robert said earlier, it is easy to imagine that even if you leave the actual politics to the people below, there will be some documents that can't be settled if you are not a lord, even if it is a relationship between aristocrats.

Rather than imitating it in such a troublesome way, acting as an adventurer suited Ray's needs.

If you're in trouble with the money, you can either accept a request from your Alliance, defeat a monster to sell materials, or hunt bandits.

Don't be a nuisance like a lord, just do what you do... No, now that you're partying, you just have to think about your own responsibilities and those of your friends.

In that sense, adventurers fit Ray's nature.

If you're an ordinary person, you might have to think about what happened after you lost your ability to act as an adventurer, but fortunately, Ray was quite slow to age.

It's obvious that Ray hasn't grown at all, even though a few years have passed since he came to this world.

Ray is his body, but I don't know what's going on around here.

No one has survived the Zephyr Gate, and if you know anything about the Zephyr Gate, it's only the Undead Grimm.

The Grimm was only one of the admirers of the Zephyr gate when he was alive.

You know the rumors about Zephyr, but you don't know anything about Ray's body that should be considered top secret.

(We'll have to think about that later.)

Yes, Ray thought about it casually.
