Legend

Even though spring was approaching, Ray, Seto, and the four Ethereal Blades were walking in the darkness of the night while the winter cold was still there because it was night.

Of course, it is the building in the slum where the intended Min and Rodos are captured, and in addition to the Rays, the party people who can currently move the Alliance are headed to that location. To surround the perimeter and not let them get away with it.

"... heh"

Into the slam, Ray unwittingly squeaks to see what's going on around him.

Built, who is also the leader of the Ethereal Blade, turns his gaze to such a Ray appearance.

"What's going on?

"No, think the slam is oddly small. There's naturally a slam in the city of Gilm, but it's bigger and bigger than here."

The city of Gilm on the periphery can be done as an adventurer by any man, as long as he has strength. But on the contrary, there is the reality that there is nothing that can be done about those who have come to the periphery even though they have no strength.

Of course, not everyone can do anything about it. Be picked up by a strong party, or gain the strength to hone your own strengths and prevail on the border. Where things have changed, there have also been people in the past who move to positions other than adventurers.

But not everyone who falls off can do it all over again. Those who have been abandoned by luck, those whose strength is overwhelmingly insufficient, those who have broken their bodies by force. Few of them exist, and they will fall into the slums. Or so will those who have fallen into the back world.

Even as the Dasker of Larks Border Uncle, I'm hitting my hand at recruiting guard soldiers, but it's still hard to get rid of the slam altogether. We really need Slam Street as a receptacle for these people.

But the slum streets now in Ray's gaze were much smaller than those in Gilm's city. Sometimes, of course, the population is quite different in the cities of Gilm and Abu Ero. But based on that, the slums in front of Ray were small.

When Ray tells Built about it, he smiles somewhere proud and opens his mouth like he's good at it.

"Right? By the time I was born, Slam Street was pretty big, too, but as a result of Mr. Tillage's various actions in becoming a guild master, running guilds, talking to proxy lords, etc."

While listening to the words out of Bilt's mouth, Ray nodded that he could also understand being admired by adventurers belonging to the guild if he did have this much result.

"Some people hate guild masters when they say they're weak. Let's go faster than that. It's time for the other adventurers to move. Shame on you, shame on you if we're the last to arrive. If it's true in the first place, we didn't have to go in, but I'm going to tell you that the bilt is going to stick with us..."

Kara, the archer, whines in her mouth about the bumps and complaints against their leader.

"But we owe Ray a lot, don't we? Thanks to Sword Bee, temporarily, I was able to escape the money."

"Yeah, right. But the only two people who were short of money were Bilt and Begliff. Me and Birke could still afford it..."

"Gu."

Built to unwittingly jam words into Carla's words. And that sharp tongue still didn't stop.

"Besides, if you think you got out of the gold on the Sword Bee thing, you're going to be out of money again.... Hey, are you stupid? If I had the money, I'd just spend it, would I die? Can I stick my head in your brain? I'd like to replace that useless brain with the one around the goblin."

"Muggu..."

"Mmm."

The sharp tongue that came out of Kara's mouth...... no, a word that could be called a poisonous tongue, but a bilt and a beglyph that can't say anything back just the facts.

"As it were, sort of. Carla needs to calm down a little. And thanks to Sword Bee, we were able to get to know Ray. Normally, you don't get to get to know adventurers who are famous on the border, do you?

Exactly, you feel sorry for your brother for being exposed to Carla's poisonous tongue, and Birke tells Carla to take it back.

And even for Kara, do you understand that what Birke is saying is not a mistake? It nods without any particular objection.

"That's true. But remember, I'm the best at this one, right? Let me exercise my rights properly when it comes to remuneration."

"Ah, haha. He said he knew. Carla loves money as much as ever."

"That's right. Because I can't even buy food without money, and most importantly, I need tons of money to make my dreams come true.... I can see it. Over there."

I guess I got to where my goal was at some point because I was walking in conversation. Everyone's gaze concentrates in the direction Carla shows.

"...... grrr"

"Oh, it seems like a hit"

Seto senses signs for several people in the building indicated by Kara, and turns his head toward Ray by honking his throat.

"Wow, wow. Griffon and words make sense.... if the words make sense, don't you have to be scared?

Birke whines as impressed as he was watching Ray and Seto like that, and the other three snort as well.

I know the relationship between Ray and Seto because I've seen it more than once, except that they still actually seem to be going through each other's will.

"Well, then... the other adventurers are much more"

Begliff looks around Paul Axe in his hand and explores what's going on around him...... but immediately shakes his neck to the left and right.

"Oh, no. I don't have the ability to detect signs. Kara, what do you say?

"Begliff... No, it's useless to expect that from you, whose brain is made of muscle in the first place, isn't it? Absolutely. If it's not the muscle that's stuck in that head, but the gold meat, I'll crack your head open and make it my property."

"Whoa, don't suddenly whine about something scary. Yikes! That's in the face too!

"Shut up. If it's not golden meat, shut up. I haven't been noticed across the corner...... Huh?

It was Carla who ruthlessly told Beglif, but suddenly he turned his gaze toward the target building as if he had noticed something.

There would have been spies and hostages of the Bestian Empire there if it had been. Yes... it should have been.

But what I saw at the end of Carla's gaze was a few shadows shrinking distances trying to break into the building.

Some of the silhouettes are equipped with swords or spears. For this reason, Carla decides that she is undoubtedly an adventurer in the city of Abu Ero.

"Hey, huh? It's Ray and Seto and us, right?

"Hey, what's going on?

To Carla's sudden wolf, Bilt asks. But it was not Kara who answered the question, but the voice of a third party.

"... bad, couldn't contain the bounce"

That being said, it was a pair of men in their mid-20s and women in their early 30s who emerged from the shadows of the building, both with swords, and it was clear that they were adventurers in the city of Abu Ero. No, he's also a familiar person if you try to build it.

"Mr. Iseberg, Mr. Holti too..."

The man is more Iseberg. Women are more horty. It was a pair of rank C parties: the Fangs of the Dinosaurs, and at the same time, it was a fine figure for Ethereal Blades to call a dependable senior.

"The orgasmic hearts are on the loose for merit... and there's no way to stop it or make a scene here."

"Become!? 'Cause those guys..."

"... I'm sorry, can you explain that to me too? I heard that the heart of an orga was a troublesome party."

To Ray's words, which are left entirely in the story, Iseberg turns his gaze to Seto and then nods small.

"I'm sorry. Ray, you were the guild master. And that Griffon over there is Seto. The heart of an orga is a rank e party. Features include one party but close to 10 adventurers. You know how adventurers used to make noise around here?

To Iseberg's words, I recall what I heard in the office.

"I did get into a brawl with a group called the Gilgmonts or something."

"Oh. And I was fined for that..."

I understood what happened to Ray too if I asked him that far.

"I mean, with a little credit, trying to do something about that fine with the reward in this case?

"I guess..."

"Damn, those guys got all the numbers together and that's what makes them stronger. We're getting into a lot of trouble, too."

Build's tongue-in-cheek echoes all around him, but in the next moment it's gone.

Ray jumped silently onto Seto's back.

"Anyway, I can't help but make a scene here. It makes no sense for them to be badly noticed by their enemies and for their hostages to be in danger. I'm sorry, but I'll let you in first.... Well, there may be some damage to those guys like Auga's heart, but it would help if they meditated on their eyes about it."

Hortie nods at Ray's words.

"Of course. Because it's bad that I ignored the operation in the first place and went in. We'll testify properly around here, so don't hesitate to bust out.... they didn't seem to be punished enough for the disturbance."

All those who were around nodded at the words of whining in a groaning sigh.

I guess that's all the party called Auga's Heart was a source of concern.

"Well, then let me go first. Seto."

"Grrrrrrrr!"

Ringing briefly to Ray's call, he wings up into the sky with a few steps of aid.

Dropping off the figure, eventually those who were on the spot nod small and move into action to do their part.

Two of the dinosaur fangs went to their original planned placement. And the four Ethereal Blades that were supposed to go in with Ray are to fill the hole that Auga's heart fell out of.

Ray, who was watching from the sky as he scattered quickly, nodded and went with Seto toward the target building.

Except once it's up above the building so those who keep an eye on what's going on outside can't find it.

(I see, the number is definitely three: one guards out the window and stands by near Min and Rodos, where the other two are each tied up and can't even move.... I can't guarantee those two lives when a guy like Auga's heart enters. I'm talking about a Rank E adventurer party. then you should do something about it before they move)

Exploring the state of Auga's heart whining inside, he was finally proceeding from the outside to the second floor of the building.

"All right, Seto. I need you to stick it in the building as fast as you can. And just before he hits the wall, he changes direction and pulls up. I'm going into the room where Ming and the others are being captured."

"Gru?"

Are you okay? And Ray nods when there's no problem with Seto leaning his neck.

The strength of the enemy itself was that Seto could be lightly powerless in the city of Gilm, so it was determined that he could not be considered a strong enemy even if he could not be underestimated.

(Better yet, Seto was a surprise attack in the dark of night. Do we have to act on that?)

No matter how much you were holding Rodos and Minn hostage, you weren't the kind of person you could be alarmed to think you held that elk.

"... All right, let's go"

"Gru."

Seto rings in the back of his throat against Ray's voice and goes straight down to the target building with his wings flapped. In Ray's eyes on its back, I can see the building rapidly approaching.

I couldn't say enough that the only delay in noticing Ray and Seto by the person who was spying on the surroundings through the window was his alarm. Those who take the method of flying essentially in the sky do not exist, with a very small number of exceptions like the Dragon Knight. And there were no dragon knights in the city of Abu Ero, and for that reason, they concentrated on the ground with little attention to the sky. We also had information about the existence of Ray, but we didn't expect anyone who was sending him to the Elk watchdog to be caught lightly, because we didn't even know how fast Seto could travel from the city of Gilm to the city of Abu Ero. Even more unfortunately, the presence of the face of the Auga's heart also plays a role in turning the man's attention to the ground, which in turn leads to the creation of a gap that can be described as decisive.

And when the person who was monitoring the surroundings from the window raised his gaze as if he noticed something, Seto was already approaching as if he were going to crash into a window with a man...

"Well..."

Enemy attack, Ray jumps from Seto's back before the man screams, keeps breaking through the window, waves his arms wide at the watchman, and hits him.

The arm, wielded almost carelessly, smashed the man's jaw and blew it straight to the side, breaking through the wall and disappearing.

"Ha!

Instantly remove two daggers from the mysteries as they are, and throw them at two blackened men who were on the side of Min and Rhodos, who are tied up and rolling to the ground.

I would have liked to throw a spear I'm used to if it was meant to be, but in a narrow place called the inside of the room, make it a spear. Make it a death size, and Ray's specialty in long-handed weapons is hard to wield. That was the choice I made for it.

"Gu."

"Damn!"

The released dagger pierces into the arms of the two men and drops the long sword and dagger they were holding onto the floor.

"Huh!?

And while he slept on the ground, Min, who was desperately gazing at the gap, waved his leg wide enough to kick the foot of a man who was near him and turn him to the ground.

At the same time, the only man left is kicked through the floor and beaten through the dovetail decently by Ray's swinging fist, which rapidly approached him, peeling off his white eyes and losing his mind.

All the man who was rolled to the ground by Minn saw was the fact that a death-size blade held in Ray's hand was poked at his neck.
