"... don't move"
Ray was the one who whined. He has a death-sized blade on the neck of the blackened man who was on Minn's side, and at the same time has a new dagger removed from the mysteries in his remaining other hand, pointing it at a man who was looking for a ray gap while falling to the floor on Rhodos' side so that he can throw it at any time.
If a man tries to move Rhodos into action to take him hostage, it's only action because he's able to prevent it right away.
Take hostages, pawn elk, and assassinate the existence of Ray, who has been scattering in their way. Among the spies who were sneaking into the kingdom of Mireana, those who were free to move outside of those on important assignments were given measures of resurrection to recover their failures. That was the moment of disintegration.
"You big sickle...... you! You're ray! Because of you! Without you, we wouldn't have to feel so miserable, you know... whoa!
A man who stares at Ray with hateful, cloudy eyes, even as he is stuck with a death-size blade in his throat. Ray slashes his neck skin thinly with a blade as if to teach such a man his position.
You understand the feeling of blood dripping down your throat. Stop rumbling, but if you can kill people with hate, you can definitely kill them. A man who brings a strong gaze to Ray.
Ray turns his gaze toward the two hostages as they shed sight of such a man.
"Muggoo!?
"Ngu..."
Rodos, who had been rolled to the ground, raised his surprise with Ray in his eyes, and Min groans as small as he was convinced.
Throw the dagger you had as you heard that voice and stab it to the floor, while at the same time removing the new dagger from the mistering.
"Minn, Rhodos. I'm sorry, but I can't get my hands off you now. Use that dagger to get out of the rope."
……
Listen to Ray, and first Rodos moves into action. Travel as you crawl to the place where the dagger is piercing, cutting the rope that is turning you into a geese. And once the rope was cut, it was early. Untie the rope that was heavily tying up your body as it was, untie the cloth that was covering your mouth, and then untie Ming's rope as well.
"... Ray, why are you here? What happened to your father?
"Don't worry. There is nothing else in Elk's life. I may have caused some injuries, but if I did, it would be enough to recover quickly with potion and healing magic."
"... I knew you'd fought the elk"
Ming groans in a bitter voice as he sighs, and Ray nods at it.
"Anyway, grab these guys for info...... Huh!?
Ask for information. That's what I tried to say, Ray, but at the next moment I react to the sound I heard by trying to slash and tear the night air, unraveling the death-sized blade that was poking at the man's neck.
A few metal sounds of kickin 'around. The sound of something being played at the same time hitting the floor. The man Ray had poked his death-size blade to the brink was safe. But still, there's no way that Ray alone, or Ming or Rodos, who are deprived of any of their gear, can prevent something beyond the widely released 20.
"Kephew!
A man watching Rhodos eats a black-dyed dagger down his throat and brow and falls to the floor with a voice that clogs his breath. The smell of dark blood spreading around at the same time.
"Chi!
Sharply tongue-in-cheek, just wondering if he could kill any more sources, Ray beats the pigeon tail of a man who was surviving a death-size stone poke and blows it towards Ming and Rodos.
Min, who received a man who was instantly unconscious as a result of being struck with a pigeon tail by a stone poke, soon learns what he should do. We must never kill to extract information about these men who captured us.
"Please do that!
Tell Min and Rodos so, and head to the wall destroyed by Ray's attack earlier with the Death Size in place.
A dagger anointed with pitch black as if to be dispersed in darkness. Ray looked familiar to it. It's the same thing used to fight spies of the Bestian Empire who used to infiltrate the city of Gilm.
It would, of course, be natural in a sense to arrive at the same conclusion as not to be conspicuous, beyond the fact that the presence of the shadow is the weapon used. But as it stands, Ray and I were hostile, and I could only think of one opponent for Ray who could send as many as four more armed spies who could take the elk into their hands.
(I knew it was up to the Bestian Empire)
Though there was no certainty, I still heard what I was expecting from it and I ran into the other side of the wall...
……
I frown without thinking that there was no attack.
I half-intuitively perceived that something unexpected was happening just to Ray, who had decided that he would deal with it as little as possible without letting him get as close as he could than he knew for himself what Ray's arm strength was due to being blown away...
"... Shit"
At the end of the walk through the wall, I see a figure falling into the floor and tongue-in-cheek.
"Why did you seal your mouth from yourself just because you understood the difference in your power? Clean or should I say the loyalty I looked up to"
Trying to pull the man falling into depression over and over using the death-size stone-piercing part...... Ray stopping that move.
The scene where a man who is a spy loses his breath because he doesn't give him information. Because the movies, comics, and novels I saw in Japan were familiar scenes in a certain sense. And naturally I have half the anticipation of what will happen at that time...
"Magic Shield"
Deploy a one-time Absolute Defense Shield, a Death Size skill. In the next moment a shield of light is created around Ray.
"... All right"
When I look at that shield of light and nod small, as it is, I repeat my body falling into the ground using Death Size Stone Poke again...
"Nothing."
In particular, he exhaled relief at the failure of the explosion.
Find out if you don't have the kind of strange item as it is, but when it comes to what you have, there are mostly dark vessels like black-filled daggers and needles that are more than 30 cm long, and there was no such thing as a clue to this case or a transfer stone.
"Shit, it's thorough not to leave evidence behind."
While tongue-in-cheek, Ray puts the dark vessel kind into the mistering for at least the reward and all.
(Normally, the poison kind is painted on the sword... No, it's too much for me. If you think about it, daggers and needles don't just use anything against your enemies. Or, if you look more closely, you might have poison. He must have used poison or something to kill himself more than no trauma on the body...)
"Whoa, what the hell are you guys!?
When Ray thinks that way, suddenly Rodos's voice sounds.
"Ugh! All you have to do is give us that blackout! Hey, hurry up!
"This man is an associate in this case. I can't give it to you."
The yelling voice as if to go on and threaten, and the voice of Ming calmly returning words to that voice.
"... ha"
Having understood roughly what was going on just listening to that voice, Ray exhales a small sigh, leaving a spy on the spot who seems to have poisoned and committed suicide to enter the room where he had just popped out.
There it was, one losing his mind by Ray's blow and one losing his life by a black dagger. And Rodos and Minn standing in front of it. It was the last eight men.
"I knew it."
"Am I right? What is this hungry ghost? Where'd you come in from? Just get lost now. I'm busy over here."
Determining Ray as a child on the outside, he tries to get rid of even insects with his hands by a man with a sword in his 20s.
At that moment, Rodos and Minn would have a look of pity toward the men, but it would have been an act that meant nothing to the men.
"Did you say the heart of an orga, or something? I didn't know Rank E Party was selling fights to Rank A Party members. He doesn't know who he is."
"... Huh?
The sight of the men, for a moment. What is this guy saying? But as I said, it can be directed to Ray.
Ray looking straight back at that gaze with his hood on.
And eventually, I guess the limit of patience came. One of the men laughs unexpectedly.
"Come on. Hey, kid. Aren't you supposed to be on the road or something? Kid and woman like this is a Rank A party, huh? Then we can do it at the Rank S party."
"Phew. Didn't you guys get this job when the Alliance Master told you to?
"What? No way. Why do you have to be ordered by such a weak man?"
"... I see"
In one word, Ray understands that the men in front of him have no respect whatsoever for the Alliance Master.
I wonder if Tillage, who has become an Alliance Master in anticipation of the strength of the organization's operations, will not be recognized as superior to ourselves because it is a crude word and deed to see.
"Is power everything?"
The face of Auga's heart smiles niggly at the words she shrugged unintentionally.
"That's right. You know damn well what a hungry ghost is. Then you know what I'm talking about? This is where you wind up your tail and just disappear. I'm going to forget that you got a busy mouth on a powerful adventurer like us. So go away."
"... cum"
Ray accidentally leaks laughter into the words.
I guess that didn't bother you. We pride ourselves on our power, at first glance of the wizard... and are ridiculed by children who only look like apprentices. The men who received Ray's grin that way stare at him with blues on their foreheads.
And the sentiment was so accurate that there was no more. It was undoubtedly a mockery that Ray was pointing at the men, and despite the request of the Alliance, there was no other mockery than to try to put this case away for our convenience.
"Whoa, in front! It would be a big mistake if you thought we'd always have a sweet attitude because we're hungry!
The man who was closest to Ray among the men yells at Ray as he threatens.
The first person to react to that word was Rhodos, not Ray.
"Uh, dude. Let me tell you something, who are you guys selling fights to..."
"Ugh! Shut the fuck up about the scraps that were being taken hostage with these mutts!
Pickle.
You couldn't forgive me for just being called scraps, Rhodos floating blue on the comet.
If I tried Rodos, I wouldn't have been able to do it because I was called crap by my Rank E opponent, who was Rank C.
But still, it wasn't immediately exaggerated, I guess, because I'm still aware that my parents were annoyed because I was captured.
Elsewhere such a Rodos grid, Ray spins his words with his mouth mocked and distorted.
"If you have the strength, why don't you go to the city of Gilm without working in the city of Abu Ero? In that city, that's what brings together powerful adventurers, isn't it?
"Ha, this is why hungry ghosts who don't know common sense are in trouble. The city of Gilm is said to gather amazing adventurers, but at last there's just a bunch of idiots who haven't been able to properly grasp the danger. Strength means a guy like us who can turn his head around."
"... Huh, a bunch of cowards who don't have the strength to just go to the city of Gilm after all? The heart of an orga? Don't be too brave for your party names. Understand your share. You guys are sophisticated..."
Tell them so much, and think of the party names they deserve in front of them.
At that time, past Ray's brain was a bunch of eagle claws tangled up in the city of Gilm. The eagle's claw was described as the goblin's covetousness, so the name of the group in front of me was…. Think and mouth what you come up with.
"You deserve around goblin gallstones"
"... you know what happens after this, more than you're making fun of us that far ahead? It's too late to apologize, huh? You're making fun of us. I'll show you what we're capable of!
A man who was leading the way with anger dyeing his face bright red takes a step forward to that name that, to put it too much, made us look too stupid.
At the same time, the other men siege Ray as well.
"Oh, you're an idiot, those guys"
"Well, I can't help but look at Ray's appearance. More than that, I'm worried about what happened to Elk when Ray got here."
"It's okay, Mother. That father couldn't have done it so easily. He said Ray was only injured to the point of healing soon."
"That's what I'm worried about because it's Ray who said it."
Rhodos and Minn worry about Ray's family as assassins used to target Ray in a way that is good for spies because they have become hostages, beside those in the heart of an orga who are sieging Ray and moving forward with Jiriziri.
While they were caught on the spot, spies were overheard cursing rumors about Ray. So even the Bestian Empire understood how much resentment the people in charge of intelligence and manipulation on this side of the border had towards Ray.
Also, Elk being a Rank A Adventurer would have been one of the decisive reasons used this time. It is not uncommon for quality to exceed quantity in wars in this world. And if you are an adventurer with the ability of a Rank A adventurer, you will undoubtedly be overwhelmed by yourself first. That's the kind of activity that if you do poorly, you can override the tactics just because you have that person.
That's almost there, the footsteps of the war between the Kingdom of Mireana and the Bestian Empire. For the sake of that war, Elk, and although the rank is still low, will have the strength to approach that Elk, killing Ray against each other, or holding the surviving Elk hostage Ming and Rodos. That was the whole aim of the spies who took part in this disturbance.
But I didn't think Ray could beat Elk, even if he tried to be a spy, but eventually the plot collapsed.
"... Ah, you seem to have cleaned up"
That's how I was thinking in my head, Rhodos, but at some point I shrugged so much when I saw all the faces of Auga's heart fall to the floor.
