Legend

There are many people in the room who are talking about things like what to do now.

Nevertheless, many of them have already decided what they will do.

Those people were consulting other people or talking to the public.

With that in mind, Ray.....

"Hey, come on, I think Anne-san would agree with you if you had Brother Ray."That's why I asked you to help me. "

It was entangled with Camilla.

The first reason was that Anne wanted to return to the orphanage as soon as possible with Camilla.

Anne's saying so is equivalent to saying what has already been decided.

As for Camilla, she had to return to the orphanage eventually, but if possible, she wanted to do it a little later.

That's why Camila relied on Ray.

If it was Camila, she would have thought that Ray would turn Anne's thoughts around.

In fact, that judgment is by no means wrong.

Ray told Anne that even though Anne was in a hurry to return to the orphanage, it was not strange to imitate that she would leave Camilla in Egginis.

I don't mean my own children... but I trust Ray enough to take care of my own children at the orphanage.

But naturally, if that happens, Ray will have to take responsibility for Camilla's safety, and eventually Ray will have to carry Camilla to the orphanage.

Ray shook his head sideways because it was definitely a hassle for him.

"I'm sorry, but I don't mean to."Instead of relying on me, shouldn't you rely on Lindy? ”

"I mean, Lindy's been taking care of Brother Goliath, and I don't want to bother you." "That sounds like you're saying it's okay to bother me."

Ray's words stuck Camila.

In fact, Camila must have decided it was okay to bother Ray.

For Camila, Ray is a dependable brother.

The story that Anne was made an illegal slave, and Ray was very active in helping Anne, comes from the people who were captured with Anne, and above all, from Lindy herself.

Besides that, I was hoping that Camila would be able to do something about it if she asked Ray to do anything about it.

"Lindy will also have a hard time taking care of Goliath, so if you want to clean up Lindy's room or something like that, maybe... maybe she can really tell me that it's okay to stay in Exinis."

"Eh... that's..."

Camilla gave a subtle expression to Ray's suggestion.

If you were Camilla, you wouldn't be able to take Ray's suggestion.

With some doubts, Ray thinks about Camilla's behavior.

Even if he were to stay here with himself, to be honest, Ray was so busy with Ray that he couldn't imitate Camila moving as she wanted.

It is possible to discuss the aftertreatment with Robert, Dwanda, or a son who succeeds Dwanda in a Dolan workshop or Dyrus case, or in some cases, talk to Dusker in Gilm through Ray, or have Duke Kelleur intervene through Elena.

Besides that, Ray's current arrival at Exinis also meant a strong evacuation from Gilm.

It is possible that a merchant or an aristocrat wants Ray to defeat a new kind of dragon, a crystal dragon material, or someone who wants information about a crystal dragon will contact Ray to ask about it.

Even without it, Ray became a Rank A Adventurer, and many people want to know that Rank A Adventurer with the alias Griffon's Set is a follower and in contact with the person with the item box.

Because it was troublesome to deal with such people, Ray was out of the Gilm and evacuated to Egginis.

Although the expansion work currently being carried out in the Gilm was carried out in the presence of Rey and Set some time ago, there is no problem even without Rey and Set now.

... compared to when Ray and Set were working, there was no doubt that the construction was slowing down.

It was just that Ray and Set were out of standard, and now it's more normal.

That's why Ray can't take it easy to go back to the Gilm.

We need to get back to the progress of dismantling the Crystal Dragon we're asking our guild to make and collecting materials.

After all, Ray is busy anyway.

To be honest, I didn't have time to deal with Camilla.

"I'm pretty busy looking like this."I'm sorry, but I can't afford to take care of Camilla. "

"I see..."

In response to Ray's clear objection, Camila spoke with a sad voice.

But I guess the only reason I can't show you that I really gave up is because I'm trying to get Ray to do something about it.

(Well, why me?From what I've talked about so far, I don't think it's strange to understand that it's impossible to ask me to do this anymore, but if you want to stay in Exgenis, you don't have to worry about me... of course, I don't think Anne would be convinced anymore if she weren't me)

Rae, questioning Camila's appearance, asks frankly.

"Why don't you ask someone other than me?"As Lindy said earlier, there may be a possibility, and if you leave it out, there's still someone else you can ask for it, right? ”

"But if it wasn't Brother Ray..."

"... it's not me?"

"Huh!? No, no... I just thought Anne-san would be convinced soon enough if Brother Ray asked for it."

What? Looking at what's going on, it looks like Camila's saying it's not me she wants.

But even if you're right, why me?

Money?

Actually, I'm a little... no, I'm definitely pretty rich.

That's why if ordinary people live normally, they have enough property that they can't use up even after being reborn a few times.

That said, Camilla doesn't seem to know much about the area.

In other words, it's not money.

It's not gold... I can't think of anything else...

Thinking like that, Ray remembers what happened after he acted with Camilla.

It's not so long since Camilla first came to Egginis, so it's not hard to remember them.

That reminded me of something that I could suddenly think of.

Marca?

"Ah!?"

Camila reflexively breathed in the name that came out of Ray's mouth.

That was the proof that Ray was right.

(Ahh... Marka after all. but that's kind of.....)

Ray doesn't know how Camilla feels about Marka.

Specifically, do you only admire older, gentle women, or are you really in love with them?

If the former were the case, it wouldn't be strange to forget that feeling as soon as they were away from Marka.

However, if it was the latter... it was unlikely that Camilla could easily forget her love affair.

There's no way that Marka and Camila will end up together.

That's how big the difference is.

Or maybe Camilla has some special talent... that's why she's so overwhelmingly strong like Ray, or she's an artist with history, or she has technology that everyone else can't use but herself... If she can do that, she might be welcomed into the Duke of Quent's house as Marca's son-in-law.

However, hate and camila are not particularly special abilities, but really normal children.

Even so, an orphan would be out of proportion to Marca, who is said to be the daughter of the Duke's family and the next princess general.

Even if Camila puts her thoughts on Marka in such a situation, it is unlikely that it will come true.

Of course, it was possible that Camilla would become a famous adventurer and have a different name in the future... so it was not that her thoughts would never come true.

Still, it's true that the possibilities are very harsh.

“Give it up. If you're a friend, you might as well think you can't have more of a relationship.”

"That's..."

Camila could understand Ray's words, too.

As an orphan, Camilla is of high mental age.

... Otherwise, I guess I wouldn't have lived until I was put in an orphanage.

"For that reason, give up on the matter with Marka."I don't know what to say, but that kind of pain will heal in time. "

It was Ray who said what he knew, but no matter what happens, the wound will heal naturally with the passage of time.

Whether it was for Camila now or not, I don't know if it would be next month, next year, or even a few years, but it was Ray's prediction that after a while, I would be able to forget about Marka or think it was a good memory.

"...... I don't mean to do that at all"

My intimate love... or maybe it was Camila's first love, but it must have been shiny to know it.

Saying that, he left the scene looking like he could stay in front of Ray any longer.

That said, there were limited places to go, not to mention the snow and wind.

In fact, Camilla was headed for a private room in the back of this room.

(Well, let's just say... it was a bit unexpected that this would happen in the case of Camilla.Nevertheless, there is nothing particularly important to do now. What are we going to do now?)

Ray, who saw off Camila, suddenly knocked on the door of the living room when he thought about what to do.

Some of the people who had consulted about the future in the living room seemed to have noticed such a knock, but Ray, who had nothing to do, turned to you and returned to their story.

In Ray's case, beyond being the kind of opponent who would come to this room in this situation, I probably had to do something for myself.....

Ray-sama, can I have a moment?

After all, there was someone there who wanted to help Ray.

However, it wasn't someone who would use it as usual, it was Nina, the woman in charge of negotiations even in the snow and wind.

"Nina? What's wrong?"

Yes, Master Orban contacted me and asked me to give him the potions.

"Ahh... I see"

As expected of a snowstorm, Ray was convinced.

Perhaps Orban found out that Ray was called to Dwanda's house and given a reward for the necrogolem.

In Ray's case, it's not like he's in such a hurry to get paid.

Still, Dwanda was quick to contact me because she wanted to hire Ray if she could.

Looking at Orbán and Rabel, Dwanda's behavior must have been somewhat suspicious.

That's why we prepared the potions as soon as possible to show that we also attach enough importance to Ray.

Ray nodded honestly to Nina's words, anticipating that from her attitude.

"Alright, I'll be glad to have the potion ready."Then let's go. You can do it right now, right? "

Yes, I've already prepared some potions, so go ahead.

If so, Ray doesn't have anything to do in a hurry right now, so he nods to Nina's words.

Leaving the room, Nina guided me through the underground passage.

Maybe it's underground, but it's not as hot as it is on the ground right now, and Nina hasn't shown up to scratch her sweat.

Currently, temperatures are more than ten degrees hotter than usual in the earth, and it's hotter in the middle of summer... no, it's hotter than that.

Under such circumstances, the basement was still comfortable.

In that sense, those who belong to the wind and snow... even so, those who are currently in Sydney will be lucky because they are comfortable.

Of course, if the above-ground heat continues unabated, it will eventually affect the underground as well.

Ray went down the underpass, talking to Nina about the ground situation.
