Legend

Ray, can I talk to you for a second?

After unfolding the Mithril barrier again, Ray, who was slowing down with Set on the side of the magic tent, raised his face when he heard the voice.

The person who uttered the voice was the flat.

He was entrusted with this encampment.

“What's the matter? Was there anything wrong with the way the flat came to me?”

"Actually, there was a lizard man coming." I'm asking you to come over to Ray for a minute, but do you mind? "

"Lizardman? What do you want from me?" It doesn't look like Zozo's here.

If Zozo is the only one who has pledged allegiance to Ray, it's not through the flat if he has anything to do with it, and it's not strange if Zozo comes to see Ray in person.

If that's not the case, it means that other Lizard Man besides Zozo has something to do with Ray.

"What should we do? If you're busy, you can say no."... it doesn't look like I'm busy. "

As far as Flat could see, Ray was just leaning over to Set and looking at the Monster Atlas.

It may be said that he is busy reading the monster atlas, but it is the flat's prediction that he will not make such an excuse because it is about Ray......

"I see. I don't have anything in particular to do right now, so let's go for a while." What about Nielsen? "

Flat is surprised that Ray called Nielsen's name.

Of course, when something happened... Specifically, I knew that Nielsen had to be on Ray's side so that I could be informed as soon as it appeared, but I saw that Nielsen was not on Ray's side.

In other words, I thought they were hiding in a nearby tree.

The appearance of Nielsen with his face out of Set's hair was enough to surprise the flat.

"If Ray and Set are going, I'm going too." I was curious about what happened.... what is it? "

Nielsen's last words were directed at the flat.

Nielsen is in a bad mood because she was napping.

"No, it's nothing." Well then, please take care of the birth tower. "

If you stay here like this, you think you can be entangled with Nielsen or even play a strange prank, and Flat leaves the scene if he says so briefly to Ray.

Or are you busy with work?

Basically, it was Ray who didn't have anything to do unless he came out, but unlike Ray, the flat that compiled the camp had a lot of work.

... but it's not as easy as Dusker's workload.

"Nielsen, don't make too much of the flat. No, not just the flat, but the rest of them."

"I don't mean to do that." But there's a lot of them... right? You know that, don't you? "

“I know how you feel, but the flat is different, isn't it?”

Many of the adventurers in the camp are fairies.

Such a person comes closer when he sees the fairy Nielsen.

And he's overreacting to Nielsen.

Nielsen wouldn't care so much if this was appropriate.

But the fairy lovers were overwhelmed.

That's what I think Nielsen is so depressed about.

When I checked with Nielsen, it was not strange that there were many things about the case.

"Hmm, more than that, you can't keep doing this forever, can you?" Well then, it's time to go. Come on, hurry up. "

It was Nielsen who was clearly trying to deceive the story, but I knew that Ray would only make Nielsen's mood worse even if he broke in on this matter anymore, so I nodded honestly to the words.

It was one of the criteria that the lizard men wanted to solve the question of why they were calling themselves.

(Well, I wonder what happened. If it has anything to do with me, it wouldn't be strange if Zozo came to let me know, not another lizardman.)

While thinking like that, he stored the magic tent in a misty ring, cleaned it up easily, and then headed to the birth tower with Set and Nielsen.

"Wow... this is quite unexpected again..."

Ray leaked his voice to the sight in front of him.

If this were the case, for example, with some kind of monster attack, Ray wouldn't have been so surprised.

Most of the lizardmen were warriors, but they were convinced that it was even like that.

If you wanted me to join you in combat training like you did before, Ray would have been able to convince you.

But... what's right in front of Ray right now...

"Giggle, giggle, giggle..."

She was crying well, she was a baby.

It's also a human baby.

Time seems to have passed since birth, but Ray and I don't know if that's right.

However, as far as I can see, it will look like I'm in good spirits.

"Baby...? Why are you here?"

Even if this baby is a baby, you can expect that the Lizard Man baby will be born fresh from an egg in the birth tower.

But it was undoubtedly the human baby that was here.

There was also the possibility of a beast baby, but Ray saw that there were no beast characteristics in places like ears and hair.

In other words, there was no doubt that the baby in front of Ray was a human baby.

Lord Ray, you're here.

The lizard man who was sneering at the human baby came up to Ray with the baby.

Basically, the Lizard Man pays homage to the strong.

In that sense, there was no doubt that Ray was worthy of respect for the other Lizardmen besides Zozo.

"Wow, that's cute."... it's a bit noisy, though. "

Standing on Ray's right shoulder, Nielsen looks at the lizard man with the baby approaching her and says:

Or maybe you could see the baby and understand why you were so cute to the fairy lovers. You only had a grumpy expression on your face for a few seconds, but it disappeared immediately.

"What happened to this baby?" It's not like you've kidnapped me from somewhere, is it? "

Lizardman nodded again and again in a panic as he held the baby to Ray, asking just in case.

If I stayed silent, I would have thought I'd be the one to decide that I had kidnapped this baby from somewhere.

In fact, if the lizard man had been silent, he would have done something he thought suspicious, even if he hadn't imitated it like that right away.

"It's falling from the sky."

"... what about you?"

For a moment, Ray didn't know what the lizardman was talking about, so he looked up.

There was just a blue sky, and I couldn't understand what the Lizard Man was saying.

"It's falling from the sky."

That's what Ray said again, Lizard Man.

I don't think Ray's lying in this situation.

So, how do you know that it fell from the sky?

(I don't think the baby is really flying. In other words, could it be a monster?)

Ray and the others are in the Trent Forest.

If a baby comes down from the sky in such a place, it is possible that the current situation is not a monster... or a monster, but a bird or something has taken the baby from somewhere and dropped it for some reason.

"Has the baby fallen back to normal?" How do you feel about that? "

“That's what happens. I was lucky enough to catch it.”

I understand the words of the lizard man as much as possible.

I wonder if my prediction was still correct.

When the baby fell, were there any birds or monsters in the sky?

Ray asked, but Lizardman shook his head sideways unfortunately.

“No, it's not like that. Maybe, but not when I saw it."

"... I see. When that happens, the question is what to do with this baby." Did you call me to ask that? "

"Yes, I don't know what to do with the human baby, so I asked my buddy to call Ray."

"If you called me because a monster appeared, you can call me because a baby fell." What do you want me to do with this baby? "

If this is the case, or if Japan were to deliver the missing baby to the police, it would be possible to inform the whole world, rather than the whole country, that they are generally keeping the lost baby on the Internet or TV.

However, there has been no development of TV or internet environments in Elgin.

That's the only way to find the baby's parents in a flyer.

Nevertheless, it is unlikely to be found, and in some cases it will be necessary to make choices such as placing them in an orphanage.

There is no doubt that there is nothing we can do under the circumstances.

"At least if it's a baby from Gilm."...... If you brought me from somewhere else, it would be impossible to find my parents. "

If this is a monster or animal that moves on the ground, it is unlikely to move that far.

But in that case, the baby would probably have been eaten to death already.

In that sense, I guess I was still lucky to be kidnapped by a flying monster or a bird.

... it was subtle to think that I was lucky to be separated from my parents and brought to the Trent Forest.

“Maybe so.... so what should I do?"

"I don't care what you ask me..."

If I was leaning on the way I defeated the monsters, I could handle Ray too.

However, when asked what to do with a baby that fell from the sky, Ray couldn't make an immediate decision on how to deal with it.

“I think you should ask the flat rather than ask me first.”

Ray hasn't had any experience with human babies, even though he wants us to do something about them.

When I was in Japan, I only went to see my relatives when they had children.

If this were an animal baby, not a human baby, or a monster baby, maybe we could still do something about it.

So, can I leave this baby with Ray?

"... I see. Should I take her with me?"

As for Ray, I don't care about my baby.

That said, I was afraid to leave the human baby to the lizard man, just in case.

In the sense of babies, some children hatched from eggs in the birth tower, but there is no way that a human baby and a lizard man baby can be together.

Even if the person looking after you doesn't intend to do so, even if the lizard man's baby is fine, it's not a human baby... that's normal.

That's why Ray decided that it was easier for him to take this baby with him.

Well, please.

As soon as Ray takes over, the baby is handed over to Ray.

"Giggle, giggle, giggle!"

The baby, handed over by the lizard man, cries furiously as he is embraced by Ray.

"Hey, you didn't leak it, did you?"... I don't think so. "

There is no such thing as disposable diapers in this world.

No, maybe, but at least as long as Ray knows, it doesn't exist in the Gilm.

"For now, this baby... isn't it a child from a very nice house?"

The baby's underwear is a pretty good quality cloth.

It doesn't feel like silk... but it's definitely an undergarment made so that there's no strain on the baby at all.

"Hmm, is that so?" It was the first time I touched a baby in this world, so I thought it was normal. ”

"No, well, I can understand that." Not for now.... Anyway, I guess we just have to ask the flat what to do with this kid. Maybe... maybe the flat or some adventurer in the camp knows which house this child is from. "

That being said, I don't think Ray is going to do what he says.

It can be predicted that it will be terribly unlikely.

But... maybe. Just in case.

That's what I was going to tell you with such expectation.
