Legend

"Wait, wait, wait. What the hell are you carrying!?

On a snowy night, Ray and Seto were walking all over the city of Gilm. Of course, just walking normally doesn't mean you can put that kind of penetration into a guard or a knight around.

Still, I guess I was stopped by three guards policing the city because Ray had a woman on one shoulder and Seto had two men on that back.

Besides, it was only natural for the guard men to call Ray and Seto off, even if one of the men was going to smell strong blood.

"You, when it comes to taking Griffon, are you an adventurer who says Ray or something? I would like to hear more about the situation. And those three?

"Right. I don't mind that, but can I ask for one from here? Of course I'm involved in this."

"... what? I'm not sure I can fulfill your hopes, but just say so."

Sometimes it's winter nights, and the number of people in the city is low. But still, it's not like he's never there. Are you on your way to the tavern or even the whorehouse? Quite a few people looked promising, those figures were sending their gaze with a slight frown as to Ceto carrying two men who had passed out on their backs or Ray, who was responsible for a woman on their shoulders, or some kind of incident.

Because of this state of affairs, Ray handed over the woman he was shouldering to one of the guards, approached the other guard and spoke to the surrounding wild horses so that they could not hear him.

"Go to the Lords' Hall and bring me a knight. Looks like these guys are spies or something from the Bestian Empire."

"Huh!?

To Ray's words, a sharp and breathtaking guard.

If this was normal...... that was what happened about a few months ago, I would probably have laughed with my nose. But not now. Somehow it was revealed a long time ago that the Alchemists of the Bestian Empire had entered the city.

And the adventurer in front of him was also involved in the disturbance that captured the person, naturally the guards who were forced to participate in the investigation of the Azot Chamber of Commerce because of the disturbance. Hence.

"Okay. I'll call you right away. But there's nothing we can do here like this. Will you come to the guard's jar once? Even for you, it's better than waiting for a knight to come in this cold, right? Besides, honestly, your job is heavy on me."

I thought about the words of the guard for a few seconds, and eventually nodded.

Ray wearing a dragon robe or Seto not bitter at all this degree of cold, but still not happy to remain standing in the winter night sky. If you can sit and wait, it's because you've decided you've never been over it.

"Well, then, please"

"help.... hey knight please"

One of the guards nods small in the gaze of the guard he was talking to Ray. Somehow one of the three has a woman and the other has to show Ray to the stuffing station. Because when that happens, it was obvious that the free self would call the knight.

"I'll be right back"

A guard who says so briefly and runs to those who have the Lords' Hall.

Dropping it off, Ray was led to a guard crawl near downtown.

"It's a small place, but come on in"

That's what they say, Ray and the guards go into the jar. Seto slept in the shadow of the building as usual after handing over the two men he had on his back to the guards. However, this time I am not relaxing or sleeping as usual. There will be other spies of the Bestian Empire infiltrating the city of Gilm, alerting their surroundings to perceive them when they come to retrieve the three captured, or when they come to seal their mouths.

Ray was going to let Seto eat plenty of meat when he was done, acting like he knew everything just by looking at Ray.

"Just wait there for a second. We're gonna tie those three up so they can't get out when they wake up."

A guard who tells Ray so by placing a cup of tea on his sitting table.

"Oh, no problem. Instead, try not to get away with it a little or softly. They're so called backwards. You can usually take the bones off and untie the rope that's tying your hands."

"... ok. Just in case."

That said, two of the guards descend into the basement of the building.

(I see. I didn't think it would be very spacious for the stuffing, but is there a store or something available in the basement? but......)

Ray nodding inside somehow.

Because there's magic, you can use earthly magic to help you escape or escape? I thought so, Ray, but there's basically no such thing as an important criminal in this jar. It is mainly for those who make noise in the downtown area. There is no need to be so sturdy as to be so, and above all, the city of Gilm is harder to build on the ground a facility that takes a place than has a limited site area.

If this isn't the border, it won't be that hard to expand the walls that cover the city. But this is the border. If you break a wall badly, you don't know what kind of monster will appear after that gap. Not to mention the possibility of stimulating monsters by building more walls, which makes it so easy to expand the city.

I carry the tea to my mouth with that in mind, but I frown unexpectedly at its taste.

"Exactly what you should call a stuffed tea"

"Ha ha. Well, because the budget is the budget. I can't prepare tea leaves that expensive. Still, you're just blessed to have tea leaves."

The guard who came up from the basement hut laughed and lowered his back across from Ray.

"Well, I just wanted to ask you what's going on... well, since the knights came from the lord's hall around there. You want to avoid the hassle twice, don't you?

"Right, that would help if you did"

Bring the tea back to your mouth as you thank the guards for their care.

Instead of calling it tea, sip that drink, which you might describe as just colored water, and look inside the jar.

"Hmm? What's up?

The guard asks if you cared about that gaze, but Ray shrugs his shoulder small.

"No, because it's a stuffing block near downtown. I just thought it would be noisier. But as far as this goes, aren't you even that busy?

To such Ray's words, the guards shake their heads in sigh.

"It's still early at night. We should be busy accelerating from now on.... Well, still."

The guard continues his words as he turns his gaze out.

"It's winter now, so that's about it, but if this is summer, more idiots will be on track and the businessness won't be sprinkling"

"... I see"

Two, Ray reminds me of a police feature show I did on TV before I came to Elgin. I remember seeing a summer altercation in that show, that too, downtown alternation kept me busy with a lot of things. Luckily for me, Ray lived in a country where I could say it was the back of the mountain, so I've never actually had that experience.

(If you think about it, the guards aren't easy either)

Either way, there are many adventurers in this city of Gilm. That means that battle duty is often drunk and violent. Thinking about it, I'd say the guards in front of you are doing a tougher job than the police officers.

"It's definitely you more than that, isn't it? He said he delivered medication to a city where the plague was endemic."

"Hmm? Oh. The city of Barr."

"Is it the city of Barr?... It doesn't mean it's close, but it doesn't mean it's far away. What about the risk of a plague spreading all the way to this city?

Only the guards, I guess I'm still worried about this city. While I think so, I nod to reassure the person sitting in front of me.

"No problem. It's an endemic plague, a disease called satanic fever, but it was blocking the city of Barr. The illness itself is healed with the ingredients I took. You won't be afraid to spread."

(Except if this city has the same nucleus of dungeons as the city of Barr)

Inside While I think that way, Ray continues his conversation with the guards without putting that on his face.

Later, when we talked about the recently endemic udon and the fact that the distribution of Gamellion meat was considerably higher than last year, we eventually heard the door of the stuffing knock hard.

"You're here."

I guess I understood who came by the sound of that knock alone. A guard opens the door to welcome visitors.

Outside the door were the knights of the Knights of the City of Gilm, wearing knights' armor, as the guide guards had expected. Five of them.

I just got in touch.

"Yes, Ray there is the central figure in this disturbance."

A guard answers that to a knight who is at the head of the knights, presumably the superior officer of the other knights.

(The central person... and that sounds like I made the case)

You're right in a way, but naturally the knights don't do anything about it. A representative of the knight turns his gaze to Chirali and Ray.

"Seeing Seto outside, I thought maybe... I knew it was you"

I didn't recognize Ray, but I guess the knight knew Ray and Seto. Nodding somewhere convinced, he turns his gaze to the knights behind him.

"Transfer the three captured men to the carriage. They're the so-called troops behind it. It would have useful information for the Kingdom of Mireana in various ways. Use whatever means you can to pull it out."

"Okay."

A knight who was partitioned approached Ray as he nodded small to the words of the leading knight and quickly escorted him to the cellar while being guided by the guards.

"I'd like to hear more about it, is there a bit of a problem here"

"Wait a minute, please. What do you mean there's a problem?

Did you feel like you were ridiculed for the place you were packing, or the guards would eat and hang on to the knight?

But the knight waves his head small and opens his mouth without looking concerned about it.

"Unfortunately, the kind of people that Ray actually caught this time are entering the city. You won't be able to say it's all for what you caught this time. If that happens, they could be eavesdropping on information when we're talking here."

"Wait. You can be more relieved of the area than Seto is out there."

"... I see. I would have liked to get some info at the Knights headquarters if I could, but surely does anyone imitate a fool to eavesdrop where there are high-ranking monsters like Griffon. Fine, then let me know what's going on here."

Rather than trusting Ray's words... he nodded like he trusted Griffon's abilities, and the knight lowered to the couch to face Ray.

Though he was not wearing a helmet, the sofa with his hips down sank enormously because he was still wearing armor like a breast plate covering the chest area.

Without looking concerned about it, take out the pen and paper on the magic item and turn your gaze toward Ray.

"Well, let me talk to you in turn"

"Right. The first time I felt my gaze was during the day today. I was out of town to defeat Blue Caterpillar on a monster crusade request, and that's when I felt my gaze and tried to find signs, and it disappeared."

That being said, I will briefly explain the situation. Having deliberately moved to an unpopular location throughout the city to lure it out. And that he was solicited to the Bestian Empire, and that if he refused to do so, he was defeated and captured with Seto because it became a battle. The guards found me on the way to carrying it, and to this day.

"... I see. As the Hand of the Bestian Empire, I'm sure it's only natural to think about drawing you in."

Behind the shrieking knight's brain was past the face of the alchemist who had extended his hand and rooted for the Azot Chamber of Commerce.

Alchemists and warcraft soldiers have already completed their transfer to Wang Du, and their superiors have also heard information that interrogation is taking place. Then, naturally, we're squeezing out a lot of information about the Bestian Empire that's been hard to come by. He said it would be impossible for the Bestian Empire to try to draw in any more than it was sitting in front of him who created the cause, seemingly only a luxurious apprentice wizard.

(It's an alchemy that the Bestian Empire is putting in, but I guess an adventurer who follows a griffon means the person he wants even in exchange for that alchemist. I can't feel it, but I'm talking about this guy having enormous magic himself)

Even to the guard I was listening to with the knight, you didn't think it was such a big story, his face also seemed slightly drawn. He takes a glimpse of such a knight and shifts his gaze to the paper where he writes the story he heard from Ray to confirm it.

Then I listened to the details and it wasn't until about an hour after that that that Ray eventually opened up.

"Then the three of the Bestian Empire will be picked up here. Perhaps we'll be escorting him to Wang Du, just like we did in Post-Guela after we pulled out the information.... Maybe there's some contact from over there again. It would be helpful if they captured him again like this one and handed him over to us."

"As far as I'm concerned, I'm not very happy. It's not particularly beneficial."

"Well, that won't help. Anyway, you're the protagonist of this riot."

The guard slaps Ray on the shoulder to comfort him somewhere, and the knight greets Ray and the guard lightly with a bitter smile before embarking on a carriage for escort.

Dropping it off, Ray finally returned to the inn with Seto.
