Legend

"Well, in the meantime, I've managed to defeat the three kinds of monsters that were the minimum purpose, and I want to move on..."

“What's the matter? Since you defeated the monster that you wanted to kill, that's enough, isn't it?"

Nielsen turned a strange gaze to Ray's murmur and asked.

When it comes to Nielsen, the monster Ray wanted to defeat was defeated, so the next enemy... Isn't it okay to go and defeat the Smog Panther?I thought so.

But if you're honest with Ray, I'd like to beat one more spider and one more deer.

After all, the magic stone used in the magic beast technique needed two pieces of both Set and Death Size.

Although the lizard could get quite a lot of magic stones, there was only one spider and one deer each.

In that sense, I still want to defeat each one of them around here.

"The magic stone needs to be saved and ornamental."Anyway, the lizards, the spiders and the deer are still one at a time, right?Thinking of it that way, I'd like to defeat one more one at a time if I can. "

Ray tells Nielsen a cover story that he often uses in his daily explanations.

Nielsen gave a troublesome expression.

Until now, I was happy that Ray had recognized my strength, but it seemed like I had completely forgotten about it.

In Ray's case, Nielsen didn't have any confusion, but for the time being... so let's continue the conversation.

"Don't worry, I won't bother looking for those spiders and deer."I was just looking for a smog panther, and if I stumbled across it, I was going to take him down. "

That's okay?

Nielsen was convinced by Ray's words, but I think Ray saw how Nielsen looked like.

I've heard that smog panthers are scattered all over the forest.

And Ray was going to take down as many Smog Panthers as he could.

In other words, finding spiders and deer while looking for a smog panther is not a strange thing to say.

Not to mention, the smog panthers are looking for Ray and Set, and Set's feelings in particular are incredibly acute.

If Ray or Set traveled through the woods looking for a smog panther, finding spiders and deer... or other unknown monsters was not unusual.

"If you're convinced, it's time to move."We need to do a lot of things to find the Smog Panther. ”

"Hmm... hey, Ray. Is there anything you want to hide?"

Nielsen suddenly asks Ray like that.

Ray and I didn't know where that conclusion came from in the current situation.

Was it a woman's guess or a fairy's guess?

"I mean, there's something I can't tell people, so I'm hiding it in that way."

If you honestly say you're not hiding anything here, you're likely to be suspicious.

In the meantime, Ray deceived me like that.

What Ray said was never a lie.

There are quite a few things I can't actually tell Nielsen, and there are good reasons for that.

That's why Nielsen was somewhat convinced when he heard Ray's words.

"I see? Well, that's fine."... then let's go.I'd like to find the Smog Panther as soon as I can. ”

Nielsen said so and flew in front of Ray and Set.

Ray glanced at Nielsen like that and turned to Set.

No matter what Ray says, Set understands the gaze alone.

Gruuuuuuuuuuuuu

Seeing that, Ray nodded tinyly to Set's throat.

"Now, where the hell is the Smog Panther?"It was said that it was scattered in the forest, so it was time to find just one. "

"Hmm, if you say so."Smog Panther was a pretty high ranking monster, so I thought it would be odd if he came out soon.Maybe because Set's here, he won't show up? "

Nielsen's words made sense to Ray.

However, Set had already suppressed the signs from the moment he entered the forest.

In fact, the monsters like spiders, deer, and lizards didn't seem to notice Set's sign.

... but it was a triple battle, and I was concentrating on it, so it might be big.

(Tripod... whether or not it can be called a tripod is a subtle thing to be honest.)

When Ray arrived there, the deer was already sealed off by a spider, and it wasn't strange that he should ever be killed.

The reason why the deer had not yet been killed in such a situation was probably because there were lizard herds around the deer.

As a spider, he was alert to the lizard so that even if he killed a deer, it would not be taken from the side, and he had not yet been able to kill the deer.

Because of the situation, the monsters weren't surprised if they didn't notice Set's presence.

"Hey, Ray. Hey. Looks like there's something over there."

Nielsen, who was moving around to take Ray and Set, suddenly said that.

I don't know what Nielsen is talking about.

However, I thought I might have found a monster and asked with an interesting look.

What exactly do you mean by something?

"Hmm... some big tree nuts? There's a bigger tree nut than me."

Tree nuts? I wonder.

In Ray's case, a tree nut bigger than Nielsen is not unusual, but if Nielsen says so, I think it might be quite interesting.

"All right, let's go over there."If the tree nuts are delicious, I want to make sure they are safe. "

“All right. Let's go. This way.”

Saying so, Nielsen flew in the sky and deviated from the direction he had been going.

Ray and Set followed Nielsen like that.

(Tree nuts? If it's bigger than Nielsen, it's definitely quite a size.The question is, can you really eat it?)

I don't think the nuts are just the tree nuts because they attracted Nielsen's interest.

If so, it was possible that it was a tastier tree nut than Ray had expected...

"So, Nielsen, what's the look of that tree nut?"

"Hmmm, that's right. How does it look...?"

"... eek?"

To express a tree nut, is a wax worthy?

Ray had such questions, but it didn't seem like he was lying to Nielsen.

(Tsk... walnuts?)

Ray lived near the mountains in Japan.

Of course, there are walnut trees in the mountains, and I know what walnuts are.

In fact, the walnut fruit known to Ray is covered in pulp, but even if it becomes a tree in a generally known state, Ray can understand it.

Also, walnuts are usually delicious as ingredients.

If Nielsen found the walnut, it wasn't a bad thing for Ray either.

Because walnuts are a variety of useful ingredients, and there is no doubt that the food will be even more delicious.

... but it's basically Marina's job to make that dish, not Ray's.

Ray walked through the woods hoping it would be walnuts.....

"Ah, look, Ray, I can see you." Over there, over there. "

What Nielsen was pointing in the right direction was certainly a very large tree nut.

It was also true that the appearance was wrinkled.

"This... what the hell is this tree nut?" Can you eat it? "

That's how Ray felt when he came out of his mouth because he was imagining walnuts.

In fact, as far as I can see, it doesn't look like it can be eaten.

However, if you say that, you wouldn't think that even walnuts are creepy and can be eaten.

In that sense, even if it's a tree nut that doesn't look like it can be eaten like this... no, on the contrary, it's a fact that you can never deny the possibility of being eaten deliciously.

In view of the current situation, although I could not imitate this tree nut to be eaten immediately, there was no choice in Ray not to acquire it.

Even if it was a tall ray among the nuts, he reached out to pick a tree nut that was a branch at a height that could normally be reached.....

"Whoa!"

The moment you touch it, the nuts burst.

Since he jumped backwards about the centipede, there was no harm to Ray, but it was still enough to surprise Ray.

Gruuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu

Look at Ray jumping backwards. Is Set okay? and snarls his throat.

Nielsen looked at the ruptured nuts with a surprised expression.

The bursting of the nuts was totally unexpected to Nielsen.

And when I turned my gaze away from the tree nuts, I asked Ray for a moment.

Ray, are you okay?

“Yeah, no problem. I didn't think the nuts would explode.”

"Huh? Yeah? I didn't know these nuts would explode, but there's plenty of explosions in the plants."

"... is that so?"

Ray murmured in amazement at Nielsen's words.

That said, Ray didn't know about it, but it also exploded on Earth... There are plants that burst and send their seeds to the surroundings.

In particular, a plant called Snakonoki flies at a speed of 250 km/h.

Besides, the seeds are also toxic, so it can be said that it is a very dangerous plant.

In addition to the seeds, there are many thorns from the trunk of the tree, and the thorns are also dangerous because they are poisonous.

Not only that, but the sap, the leaves, the fruits... all of them are poisonous, and even the sap in my eyes is so vicious that I fear blindness.

Compared to such a vicious plant, the bursting nuts in front of Ray were not that dangerous.

Did that rupture... send the seeds flying?

"Uh, wait a minute.... mmm, ah, isn't this it? "

It was a ray that was reflectively evaded from the ruptured nuts, but I think that the rupture was to fly the seeds.

In fact, as Nielsen jumped close to the ground, he found something that looked like a seed.

However, I didn't know if it was really due to the bursting of the nuts earlier.

"Oh... it's heavy... hey, Ray." Take it! "

I could bounce from the nuts bigger than Nielsen... or the seeds that were supposed to have been fired were quite heavy.

However, it was only a weight for Fairy Nielsen, and I didn't think it was that heavy for Ray.

Then, looking at the seeds I received from Nielsen and their presence...... I suddenly noticed that the scent was sweet.

The scent that comes from the seeds is definitely sweet.

It's not just sweet, it smells like chocolate.

(Chocolate? No, but... this is what chocolate was all about?I'm supposed to use cocoa beans or something like that, and I remember seeing something like that when it's not sweet when it's beans)

Rae wondered, but immediately shook her head to the side.

All Ray has is knowledge of Japan... no, on Earth.

There is no doubt that this Elgin resembles the Earth in many ways, but there are many things that are not at all similar.

The presence of magic and monsters was remarkable.

However, just because Ray didn't know about it, I couldn't deny that there might have been magic on Earth.

Anyway, since the Earth's common sense and Elgin's common sense were not supposed to be the same, it could not be denied that there was normally something like chocolate flavored seeds in Elgin.

If so, it is not surprising that chocolate has the seeds of its flavor.

Thinking so... suddenly, I have doubts.

"Huh? Nielsen, you were supposed to like sweets, but you weren't interested in this kind of thing?"

"... what? What's wrong with that seed?"I think it has a strange smell, but I didn't think it was sweet or something like that. "

Is that so?

Ray grabs the seed again and sniffs the smell.

After all, there was a sweet smell like chocolate.

I don't know why Nielsen doesn't like this fragrance.

Do you not know it is unique to the fairy, or is it because it is Nielsen?

To be honest, I didn't know the difference, but I decided that I should collect as many of these seeds as possible, and I searched the ground with Set and Nielsen.
