Legend

"It's the city of Gilm, I see the city of Gilm!

Such a cry echoes in the Lalux army that soothes the streets.

About two weeks after splitting up with troops already headed to Wang Du, led by Dusker. As we proceeded to the city of Gilm, it must have been natural for us to hear joyful voices within the Larks territorial army, as the troops of the nobles near its passage from the next to the next, continued to move on from the city of Abu Ero, which broke up with the last troops, and stayed one night on the way and finally got the city of Gilm in sight.

It's about January out of the city of Gilm as the war begins, but everyone is smiling happily about whether they still miss it or not.

In the meantime, there was naturally a lot of grin in the carriage Ray was boarding.

"Are you finally back? I knew you'd be relieved to see it like this."

Luno squeaks smudgingly as he looks at the city of Gilm as he sees it through his carriage window.

There is naturally a small grin on that face that somewhere appeases me.

"Right. It's the first time I've felt it since I've been back. This city is our home."

One of the knights also gives a relieved look as he snorts at Luno's words again, and the other knight snorts that he agrees.

But if you try Ray, who is in the carriage with those knights and Luno, you can't have that strong sense of grief because it hasn't been a year since you came to the city of Gilm.

That said, I turn my gaze back to the book with the introduction to the monster in my hand that purposefully speaking would also be a wild imitation.

Of course I'm glad to be back in Gilm, but more so for Ray, trouble awaits me when I return to the city of Gilm. I have that relationship, and I can't just be happy to take it easy.

You must have noticed how Ray was doing. One of the knights changes the type of grin from appeased grin to bitter grin and calls out to Ray.

"Ray, why don't you take a little pleasure in that, too?

"I'm not happy. However, given the hassle I've had since I got back, I can't help it."

"Oh, the return of the supplies in the item box"

After hearing the two voices, Luno turns his gaze to Ray with a mean grin.

Yes. In Ray's mysteries there are a number of supplies that he thought he would need in this war. From weapons such as bows, arrows, swords and spears, they are huge quantities of supplies, starting with substitutes such as booze, food, tents and tents, and various other restoration items.

Dusker, who feared that he would run out of supplies, had a few months available, but the actual battle is over in one day. Then, naturally, less supplies are consumed, and many of them end up in mysteries without ever being let out.

When we headed to the Seremouth Plains, we used to disperse them in carriages just in case, but the war was already over, and even closer to complete victory didn't mean that there were no injuries at all. Most of the extra supplies were pushed to Ray in order to get them on the carriage.

Naturally, the supplies don't belong to Ray, so when I get back to the city of Gilm, I have to return them, and Ray's face looks very annoying considering the hassle.

"Regardless of the weapon, maybe you should keep some food and other preserved food in the item box. Especially since there's still a lot of freshly prepared food, right?

To the knight's inquiry, check the list behind his brain and nod with a sigh.

The high morale of the Larks Army had many reasons, starting with its pride in being the most elite adventurer, but naturally there was something about being able to eat freshly made dishes in one of them.

Or the glance of envy directed at us from other troops would have played a part in the high morale. Of course, there is a good chance that I will rub it later if I leave it with envy, so I divided it somewhat.

Anyway, nevertheless, a few months of freshly prepared food is in Ray's mistering, and if you serve it all, it will naturally rot. Considering that, there was no way to have the dishes served in a detour.

"As for the matter, after Lord Dusker returns from the King's Capital. No, should I ask someone who keeps you away? Anyway, right now, you should still put pills, weapons, tents, and normally preserved food in the item box for what looks like bad sunshine. Even if it's Ray, it's easier to split it it into a few pieces than to get all the contents out at once, right?

Ray snorts at the knight's words.

"It would help if you did."

If we're having a conversation like that, eventually the carriage stops.

What you can see through the window is the main entrance to the city of Gilm. And it was the residents of the city who were greeting them with cheers, sloppily lined up around the main entrance.

"You don't have to go to the king's capital, but you're happy enough here."

"I'm sure the number of people living in Wangdu is very different from the city of Gilm."

The carriage door is knocked when the knight and Luno are listening to a whining voice somewhere lit.

When Ray opens the door, who has come this far and decided that the assassin will not even attack him, a discerning face appears there.

"Mr. Ray, plus Mr. Luno and two knights. You're home early."

Despite his tough face, it was Langa, also captain of the city guard in Gilm, who was still grinning with relaxed language.

"Ranga, it's been a long time. Was there a problem with Gilm's city?

From the standpoint, Langa and the knight, the captain of the guard force, speak to each other without any particularly strenuous language because they are familiar with each other.

"Right. There are a lot of problems because that's just how many adventurers are gone, but fortunately, there are no fatal problems. More than that. Does this mean you're back safely...?

A knight grins and nods at Langa as he turns his gaze.

"Oh. The Bestian Imperial Army drove away from the Seremouth Plains. This adventurer and his subordinate Griffon are very helpful."

"... I see. Then I knew that rumor was..."

Langa as she turns her gaze to Ray on the knight's words.

I guess it was obvious who that indicated at the point when I was saying Griffon the submissive demon. I'm nodding like I'm convinced of something. I was curious about the rumor, Ray, but Langa immediately returns to me and opens her mouth before she utters it.

"Anyway, I'll rush through the process, so I'll need an ID card for the guild card, etc. I don't want to be such a innocent imitator here, because the rules are the rules."

"I know. Then let him in all over the city from someone who's done with the process. It must be quite a festival among them, isn't it?

"Yeah, it's been a long time since I found you all coming back. Some people said you might have come back losing at first, because as far as you guys were concerned, it didn't look that way. Because it was the opinion that what remained was probably an overwhelming victory to end the war quickly. And..."

Langa smiles for a moment in a meaningful way. Even as we speak this way, the guards will check the guild cards and other ID cards of other carriages, walking adventurers, soldiers and knights.

With the hard work of the guards, the process is over without taking half an hour, and you will finally enter the city of Gilm.

"So that concludes the process. Welcome home, everyone."

Langa calls out again with a grin to everyone in the carriage as she hands the devil's necklace to Ray.

With a grin in his care, each returns his words, Ray also hangs his submissive neck on Seto, who has stuck his neck through the door, before grinning back at Langa, and the carriage enters the whole city of Gilm.

"Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa!

The moment I entered the city, that voice sounded abrupt.

What you see from the carriage are people, people, people. It was a sight I could call a bunch of people with countless connections.

That was just unexpected, Ray unexpectedly opens his eyes.

But I guess it was the sight I expected in a way. Luno and the two knights look happy, or gaze from the carriage window to the crowd with a satisfying grin.

"This is... awesome"

Ray finally squeaks back at me for the number of people.

There seemed to be enough people gathered in the city of Gilm to think that most of them were gathered together.

Of course, it is only an illusion, because there is no way that as many as 100,000 people can gather here, and among the 100,000, close to thousands of people, such as adventurers, soldiers and knights, are our own Larks army.

But still, the number of crowds cheering on the Rays, who are returning to the point where they are likely to mistake it, is heard from places where things like yellow voices and screams can be heard.

"It was pretty welcome during the Oak settlement, but this time it's more than that"

"That's right. Orcs seem to make a bit of a difference when I say they are... but in the end they are only monsters. But this is a war with our neighbors. That's our side of the invasion. With that in mind, there is no need for this joy. Besides, thanks to Ray this time, quite a few of those who marched out of the city of Gilm were held hostage. Look, you wave at him, too."

Luno, waving through the carriage window, told me to take a small sigh and then Ray waves again, too.

Originally because I don't like to get attention from strangers this way, unlike Luno and the knights, I smiled somewhere.

"Hey, look next to that carriage. It's Griffon. So you're in that carriage?

"Oh, he said it worked in this war... what did he say? Red? No, you're not. Sure, deep red or something."

"Yeah, well, we're still about mid teens. There's a genius."

"Seto! Thanks for bringing your father safely!

"Seto, look. Eat this. It's a reward for your hard work."

A bunch of stirrings that can be heard up to the inside of the carriage. Of course, to the other voices, they were confused and the Luno and the others were not heard, but they sound perfectly fine to Ray, who is equipped with the five senses of the outside world.

And I naturally notice that some of the voices I've heard contain information that I can't hear.

"Hey, whatever we won, Deep Red even spreads its alias... why?

Luno and the knights with a suprising look on Ray's words for a moment, but nod as soon as they were convinced.

"The merchant information network is amazing. Besides, while we were still preparing to withdraw on the Seremus Plains, there would have been an army of aristocrats or merchants who had gone back. Probably the information flowing from the area? No, I didn't think the information had arrived so far on the border..."

"You must be absolutely right about Luno. Merchants are profitable. That would naturally make me more intelligent about information. Aren't you familiar with Ray, the adventurer, more around here than we are?

To the words of the knight, I recall a merchant I had previously escorted. Flame ore that the city of Gilm was able to obtain as a result of Ray's actions. I was purchasing that information from nowhere.

"I see, something like that"

"And some of you will know Seto better than you do in this city. You were glad Seto, the city's favorite, was active."

Luno turns his gaze from the window of the carriage to Seto, who is delightfully eating the dried meat thrown by those who are gathering.

When the yellow voice rises to the appearance of such a ceto, the dried meat is thrown in again, and cleverly received with couch and swallowed.

"Seeing this way, Seto has become quite popular, too. I was terribly scared when I first came to this city."

"That's right. Griffon, huh? No matter how many obedient devil's necklaces you wear, you can't be comfortable right away. It's more surprising that Seto blended into the city in less than a year."

"I guess so. Even the guards around the city were scared at first."

A knight aligns himself with the words of Luno and turns his gaze to Ray somewhere spooked.

"In the first place, it's weird that there's a guy with Griffon as his obedience. Normally I wouldn't even think about obeying such a high-ranking monster."

While deluding the words of such knights, the Rays Larks Army was dissolved after a light greeting from the knight delegate to the Adventurer's Guild.

As far as the official ceremony is concerned, since Dusker came back, the whole city will nevertheless make a scene all day long, as if it were half a festival to report the victory.

It should be noted that many of the dishes at that time were behaved with the dishes and liquor that were in Ray's mysteries at the behest of the knight who had kept him away from home.
