Legend

Returning to where the adventurers were, Ray could see the Saviors from the adventurers in captivity for some reason.

Why are you staring at me like that? I wondered, but I was convinced by the circumstances.

The adventurers were already on the verge of leaking... that's why I was told they were pushing their limits.

At first, I thought that I was only pretending to be that way in order to escape, but when I saw the adventurers, I understood that it was not an act.

If this is an act, I think it is better to do a play rather than an adventurer.

As a result, Ray signalled Nielsen in the dragon robe to release the restraints and add more energy.

Of course, I couldn't do that in front of Ray and the others, but on the other side of the bushes.

...... I thought about the possibility of escaping in the meantime, but I didn't have to worry about what would happen if I imitated them, because the adventurers seemed to fully understand.

(I didn't think it was like this.)

Looking at the adventurers who returned with a clear expression, Ray felt dumbfounded.

However, it is bad for your health if you don't give out anything more than a living thing.

In that sense, this result may have been natural in some sense.

"Hey, Ray. Are these people really all right?"

Nielsen asks only Ray to hear it so that he can't hear it around him.

Still, besides Ray, Set heard the question.

"What do you mean, okay?"

That's why it's okay to take these people with you.

"I don't know. I don't think we need to worry so much about these people. Besides... those guys will have a problem when they get back to Abruzzo."

I entered the Trent Forest without permission, where Dusker was forbidden to enter.

Besides being an adventurer belonging to Abruzzo, I'm sure that Abruzzo's guild will report on it.

There was also the possibility of complaints from Lord Dusker and the guildmaster's workers.

If that happens, Abuello's guild won't be able to punish these adventurers.

I don't think it's a punishment in that sense, because I'm supposed to have already received a fine.

However, you may be ranked down as an Alliance, added to the list of Needed Attention, or, in the worst case scenario, banished, or your Alliance may be killed.

What happens around here depends on whether there are complaints from Duskers and workers, or if Abuello's guildmasters and superiors decide.

"Anyway, if you hand it over to the guard, it won't matter to us anymore." Please do your best for the patience you've had up until now. "

After Ray's words, you thought you had to put up with them, but you didn't hear a reply from inside the dragon robe.

Probably went to bed.

"Grrrrrr"

Set's throat chirped as he listened to Ray and Nielsen's conversation.

The reason I snorted was because Set's gaze was on me... when I saw the last person to use it coming back, it was obvious.

Nielsen has been hearing about this for a long time.

I was probably done with it, and the adventurers were caught quietly.

Beyond that, there's no reason for me to be here anymore.

(Still, what are we going to do with these guys?)

Ray and the others are now on the east side of the Trent Forest.

Close enough to Abuello, but far enough away to Gilm.

With that in mind, it would be quite a hassle to travel with these adventurers to Gilm, and it would definitely take some time.

That said, I had to use the Set Cage to fly through the sky, but Ray didn't want these adventurers to use the Set Cage.

However, if you take these adventurers to the Gilm, it will take a corresponding amount of time.

Or if you go out to the street and someone you know moves in a carriage... you can't deny the possibility, but you can't expect that.

(Then the quickest thing to do is to hand it over to the soldiers and knights who are watching to keep out of the Trent Forest?)

Those who were handed over the adventurers in this situation might be troubled, but they were watching to make sure no one entered the Trent Forest.

Of course, you understand what to do when you have to.

In that case, even if Ray handed over the adventurers he had captured, you could still do something about it.

The question is, how do we find such people?

Of course, even if you are guarding, the area you are guarding is quite wide due to the small number of people and the size of the place to be protected.

That doesn't mean you can find soldiers and knights anytime soon.

Still, it was quicker to take the adventurers to Gilm, so Ray took out the rope.

"Now I'll tie each one of you up." I'll tie them all together in one robe, so if one of them tries to escape, the others can't get in the way. So don't ever think about strange things. "

Saying that, Ray tied the hands and torso of the adventurers to a few beads each.

All the adventurers' weapons were stored in the Misty Ring.

Imitating adventurers with weapons, I could always cut the rope and escape.

Ray and Set would never let the opponent get away with such an imitation, but I could see that it would be troublesome if that happened.

Then you can confiscate the weapons from the beginning and deposit them with the soldiers and knights who handed over the adventurers.

(It may seem like a troublesome imitation for them, but it's just a job to give up.)

That's what I'm going to say.

It wouldn't have been such a hassle if those who originally kept no one out of the Trent Forest had done their job.

Besides that, if you let the other person do the work here, that's fine.

"Come on, let's go. Don't think you can get away from me."

With that, Ray began to move forward with the rope that bound the adventurers.

Adventurers won't be able to walk if this happens.

If you don't move, you'll cause trouble for your people.

And most importantly, if your people move, you will be pulled more than just a few beads.

In order not to be like that, it was necessary to walk properly.

... but among the pulled adventurers, only the man with the bow and the man with the strong opposition and defiance to Ray seemed to be convinced that he was pulled by the rope.

Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr?

It was Ray who was walking while pulling the captured adventurers, but Set suddenly throbbed as he walked next to Ray.

What happened to my throat?

Ray was a little skeptical about it, but he quickly convinced himself.

That's what Set wants to say when he brings in soldiers and knights around the Trent Forest.

Set has a very high travel speed, whether it's running on the ground or flying in the sky.

They were soldiers and knights that were quite far apart, but it wouldn't be difficult to find them.

And since soldiers and knights are more than just Duskers' men, they certainly know Set.

If Set comes along and pulls his clothes lightly, the soldiers and knights will decide that something happened.

... but if you don't simply want Set to play with you.

All right, I'll keep an eye on these guys, so Seth can do his best.

Grrrr!

In response to Ray's words, Set cried happily and ran away.

"Huh? Hey, what are you...?"

I asked Ray if one of the adventurers could not understand Set's sudden behavior.

If it was the adventurers, I wouldn't have understood that Set had suddenly disappeared.

However, Ray answered without paying any particular attention to the adventurers.

"There's nothing surprising about that, is there? Just now, Set was here, and I was going somewhere else. That's just the opposite."

Just now, things were completely different.

That's what the adventurers said, isn't it? and Ray question.

The restraint remains the same now and in the past.

No, I feel overwhelmingly more at ease now than I did when I was putting up with going to the bathroom.

"Don't you think it's easier now? You don't have to worry about the toilet."

"Gu... that's..."

Did you remember when you couldn't even go to the bathroom? The adventurer who was talking to Ray couldn't say anything more.

If you were to ask me which treatment was better then or now, even a man with a bow who was disgusted with Ray would say that it was better now.

When I was putting up with the toilet earlier, it was so tough.

"If you're convinced, shut up. I don't know what you guys are going to do... I think you should think about it."

"... eh?"

I guess Ray's words were unexpected.

One of the adventurers let out such a voice.

Only one of them actually leaked his voice, but the other faces also had the expression that they could not understand what was said in the same way as the man who made the voice.

Then, a man who spoke up in horror asked Ray.

"Well, I'm sorry to come in here on my own, but I thought it was about a fine instead of being a criminal slave... isn't it?"

“I don't think so. I'm also expecting a fine."

In response to Ray's words, the man tried to open his mouth in surprise while showing relief, but before that, Ray opened his mouth again.

“However, the Trent Forest is also recognized as a very important place in the Gilm. There was no doubt that the guild lords and guild masters of the guild would contact Abruzzo's guild to complain. I honestly don't know what the result will be."

Now...... the faces of the adventurers who were listening became pale.

You must have understood what Ray was saying.

"Well, this time, you don't report it to the top..."

I don't think so.

Immediately deny it.

If these adventurers are handed over to soldiers and knights, the matter will be reported above as a matter of course.

And once reported above, this will naturally also be reported above… Eventually, it will be inevitable that it will be heard by Dusker.

If Dusker finally finds out about this, Ray will know exactly what to expect.

(Besides, there are no such people until now. Or even if you were, it's likely that you were doing whatever you wanted without being seen by the guards. Then, I'm sorry for the expression, but I just need to make an impression once.)

Show what happens to those who break into the Trent Forest once and for all.

Then, of course, fewer people will try to imitate the same.

That is merely a reduction, not a zero.

There's no doubt that the people in the Gilm value the Trent Forest and are doing something.

Anyone who manages to find it and thinks it's in their own interest will come forward.

There will certainly be considerably fewer such people than in situations where they have not made any appearances.

"I don't know what you're thinking of coming to the Trent Forest." But you did it knowing you shouldn't do it, didn't you? If so, you'll have to accept the loss if it fails. "

"Oh no! You're the same adventurer!?" You can show me the depth of your nostalgia! "

All Ray had to do was turn his back on the man he was shouting at.

I came to the Trent Forest knowing the risks, so if it fails, I should accept the consequences.

In fact, if the black sphere hadn't appeared in the Trent Forest, these adventurers would have fulfilled their purpose properly.

Specifically, it is a subtle matter of what kind of profit it was.

In that sense, it worked like an alarm... but Ray didn't want me to repeat the same thing.
