"Gu......"

Ray illuminated by the morning sun and opens his eyes on the bed. But the moment I tried to wake up my body, I felt a dull pain in my head.

"What the hell am I... No, when did you sleep?

Whimpering, he looks around while keeping his head down. Coming into that sight was definitely a room in the wheat pavilion at dusk, where Ray was sedentary.

"What happened? I did go to the guild yesterday..."

Ray following his memories like he remembers. And eventually I remember meeting Fron, a female warrior in his mid-30s, and Brasso the Dwarf. At the same time, I was advised not to be that good at alcohol, and I kept drinking for hours without cutting it off.

"I see, is that why you got drunk and crushed?... you should say it was good at the tavern in the guild. If this was a liquor store around the city, it would have been a lot more likely to have been left behind or scratched."

Exhaling sighs, he abhorrently glances at the morning sun as if it were a symbol of autumn sunshine.

"This headache, this is the guy called Hangover.... Should I take the day off?

While I praise my face for the pain of claiming cancer in my head, I pour water from water to cup to quench my thirst and drink it out for a few drinks.

"When I get hungover, I talk about wanting to drink miso soup... well, there's no way there's miso soup in this world"

Drink the water for now to make sure it calmed down somewhat, wear the dragon robes and Slapenil shoes that had been removed at some point, and make sure that the Mystering and Sucker bracelets fit properly in both arms... if you're unlucky, cool your liver without realizing that those magic items were stolen.

"This... should I take care of something"

While solidifying the image with the magic of the flame that you can use in the back of your brain, take the magic activator death size out of the mystering and cast a spell.

"O flame, if any man touches thee against my will, he shall have greater regret than his scorching fire."

Flames gather on the Death Size blade with that word...... magic activates at the next moment.

"Flames of Repentance"

At the same time that the magic is activated, the flame disappears as if it were stained into mystering.

Against Ray's will, as it was in the spell... or anyone who tried to take away mysteries when they were unconscious, as the day before, is a magic with a kind of security effect that would result in its flaming baptism. … but its power is not easy to prevent.

After that, get appropriately familiar and then go down to the ground floor.

Perhaps the peak has already passed. Guests were barely visible in the dining room, and a few people neglected to eat late.

Sitting in an empty seat watching as that happened, Lana, the general of the wheat pavilion at dusk, shows up as if waiting for it.

"Good morning. Looks like I got drunk yesterday, are you okay?

Lana lines up a light breakfast on the table with that said. You understand that you are hungover, lots of moisturizing, refreshing light objects.

"I was yesterday?

"Two of you, Lenora and Kenny, who are receptionists at the guild, brought you here. They brought it straight to your room."

"... I'll thank you when I get to the guild."

"Yes, that would be better."

Laughing and nodding, Lana returns to work. He dropped off his back and reached for breakfast.

"Ah, Mr. Ray. Good morning. Are you all right, sir?

Lenora calls out when she sees Ray coming inside the guild. The face looks at Ray worryingly, but the person at the heart just nods that it's nothing in particular.

"When I woke up in the morning I was hungover and pretty tight, but while I was eating breakfast I was getting much better"

Thank God for Zeppyre's technical skills.

I never would have thought Zeppyre would be thanked for the hangover either, but if I were Ray himself, I would have seriously thanked Zeppyre.

"So you said you carried me to the inn yesterday? Thanks."

Pecory and head bowing ray. Then I looked to Kenny as well... but I couldn't see the cat-shaped subhuman who should always be next to Lenora anywhere.

"What about Kenny?

"Oh, she would start this afternoon. Anything at home, I have a little errand to run."

"Right. Then tell Kenny I was grateful when he came this afternoon."

"Yeah. Okay. So, right? Actually, Mr. Ray has a call..."

Lenora opening her mouth looking sorry somewhere. That was a rare attitude as Lenora doing her job as a regular refresher.

"Calling? I don't remember being called."

"Yeah, I'm aware of that here, too. But it's a call from someone who has given the guild a lot of working capital, so there's no reason not to pass it on to us..."

"Why or what?

"No. I'm not informed of anything as an Alliance side. He just wants me to call Mr. Ray."

"Who is it that imitates such indiscretion?"

To Ray's words, Lenora opens her mouth with a slight frown.

However, the praised frown was not against Ray in front of him, but against being put out of his mouth at the next moment.

"I'm Bornter, the representative of the Azotto Chamber of Commerce."

Azot Chamber of Commerce. Bornter. If you asked me if those two names sounded familiar, of course they did. Anyway, I heard the name yesterday.

"I hear he's doing something like tightening up the city's weapons store."

"Yes, definitely. There are rumours… that most of the weapons coming into the city of Guild are in the hands of the Azotto Chamber of Commerce."

"So, the great man from the Azotto Chamber of Commerce is a Rank D adventurer, and I have business."

"It seems so. Of course this is only a unilateral demand on the other side, and the Alliance has no right to impose it on any adventurer who registers. So it's up to Ray to decide whether or not to respond to this call."

That being said, Lenora's expression was a blatant indication that she should respond to the call. Anyway, it's a call from someone who has more power than that in the city of Gilm. It was Lenora's honest feeling that she didn't know what kind of harassment she would be subjected to if she refused.

With a general anticipation from such Lenora's expression, Ray nods small, thinking about it for a few seconds.

"I still don't know what it's for sure, but don't you need to go down there? There are rumors, but in the end, I can't tell you anything until I see him. Okay, I'll go... can you tell me about that merchant's house called Bornter?

"Ah, yes. This way, please."

I guess I was going to talk to Ray when he originally came to the guild. A map of where the Bornter mansion was already available at Lenora's disposal.

Ray bows his head small after receiving it when he realizes that the letters on that map are Lenora's handwriting, which he has seen several times.

"Sorry to bother you."

"No, no! It's not usually possible to call adventurers to their homes through the guild even though it's not a nomination request or anything in the first place. Um... please be careful. He's got a lot of bad rumors."

"Yeah, I heard about that area yesterday from two crushed warriors.... With that said, what happened to them after that?

"What's the matter... after Ray got drunk, we went to the request, didn't we?

"... after that?

"Yes, well, not many people drink alcohol before they ask for it, but still, there are quite a few people who drink a few drinks to the scene and then head to the request."

"... right"

I sighed and shook my head as small as I had regained my mind just because I had no words already.

"Anyway, this map was helpful. Then I'll be there as soon as I can."

"Yes. Take care. Oh, please wait a little longer for the stripping request."

"Okay."

Lenora lowers her head with a pepper and still sees Ray off worried.

(... you can't tell Kenny about this one)

That's what I squeal inside. Anyway, Kenny has wandered into Ray strangely these days, even as he watches beside him. If you hear from a reputable Azotto Chamber of Commerce meeting you've been summoned straight away, there could be a lot of outbursts.

(Well, you don't even know how that feels)

Indeed, the Azot Chamber of Commerce has made a substantial donation to the Alliance. But I can't help but feel uncomfortable using it as a shield for such forceful imitation as this one. However, in the end, if there is a certain amount of demand, it is the sadness of the people who are donating funds for their activities that must be heard.

May there be no weird trouble between Ray and the Azot Chamber of Commerce. Lenora could only pray so in her heart.

What Ray saw when he left the Adventurer Guild and picked up Seto, who should be waiting in carriage and beast riding spaces, as usual. That's...

"Seto, you look cute today. Yes, eat this too."

"Grrrrrrrrrr"

While stroking Seto's head and back, he looked like Mileyne holding a large quantity of food sold in the outdoor shop around the area for a sandwich and skewer-roasted meal walk.

"Mileine... you've been coming to see Seto a lot lately, but did the scorching wind even break up?

Normally, I delay noticing Ray's presence when I'm standing in Ceto, but that's just what I couldn't miss hearing right now. He throws a sandwich with fragrant baked meat, cheese, and lettuce like leafy vegetables toward Ray with his mouth pointy.

"Slow down!"

Catch it not to grip it, and stick it where the sauce is dripping.

The outside is fragrant and cooked, but the meat inside is juicy, and the overflowing gravy and sauce came together to entertain Ray's tongue.

"You know, won't you tell me something that's not even on the edge? We've been busy here lately, so we decided to take a week-long holiday. I mean, don't eat on your own, right? It's a popular dish."

Gito, whatever Mileyne looks at me, I quickly put my sandwich in my mouth.

"Then don't throw it. If it wasn't for me, it would have fallen to the ground or been crushed."

The sandwich is already all in Ray's stomach, even as he groans like a shudder.

"So, that's what Ray's going to ask for?

I shake my head small to Mileine, who asks, stroking Seto's back with a swinging smile.

"I don't know. I'm not asking you to do this, but I want you to meet with the Azot Chamber of Commerce."

"... did you do something?

"No, nothing in particular. It's just... it seems there's been a rumor about me lately. So you actually wanted to check it out with those eyes or something like that?

"... are you okay? The Azotto Chamber of Commerce isn't very reputable, is it?

"Apparently. That's what an adventurer I met said yesterday.... So, Seto. What do you want me to do, come with you?

When Ray spoke to Seto, who was eating a sandwich, naturally, it was Seto trying to get up all the time...

"Maybe we should stop taking Seto, huh?

That's how Mileyne stopped me.

"Why? You've heard rumors that I'm taking Seto over there, and that's probably why you're calling me in, right?

"Right. Sure, that might be the reason, but there's a chance that we'll do something about Seto..."

Mileine tells with a slight frown. From that appearance, it was clear that, even as Mileyne, she did not have a good impression on the Azotto Chamber of Commerce.

"Gru......"

You got anxious to see how Mileyne was like that, and Seto rings in the back of his throat like he's not feeling well anywhere either.

"Are we going to get that far? That's a little celebrity that Seto is now the city of this guild. No, I'm not a person. If you try to give Ceto something like that, you're just gonna turn the city dwellers against the enemy, right?

"Right. I think so, too.... but it's the Azotto Chamber of Commerce that might be more bothered to say that..."

Mileyne opens her mouth again, even as she sighs small.

"Some years ago, some adventurer had a rub with the Azot Chamber of Commerce. I think the beginning was definitely some miscommunication about the escort request or something that killed that fellow adventurer by a monster or something.... Then put pressure on the Azot Chamber of Commerce not to turn its hands behind it and sell weapons to that adventurer. You know how important weapons are to adventurers, don't you? And the adventurer, who couldn't take care of it, immediately turned up his voice... and eventually left the city."

Don't be ridiculous.

Ray whines unintentionally at Mileyne's words.

I don't sell weapons to adventurers. That means you won't be able to act as an adventurer. If the adventurer was like a wizard, he would have managed. But suppose the weapon was worn out like a warrior...

"That's why you shouldn't take Seto so he can't cause it over there."

"... right. Seto, I'm sorry, can you wait here for a minute?

"Grrrrrrrrrr"

He was a nodding setto, even as he looked more worried about Ray.
