Legend

Ray and Seto were walking down the main street of the city of Emosion as the sun lit up the whole city at dusk.

I'm here for the prize money hanging on an unknown monster called Rem Race, but the one and one on their way is not the Adventurer's Guild.

I guess it would be normal to ask for information about the Rem Race towards the Adventurer Guild if it were meant to be, but the time is already in the evening, and then naturally there will be a large number of adventurers returning to the Guild who have fulfilled today's request. This is because I decided that I should go to the guild a little later tomorrow and ask for information, rather than put the guild staff through the trouble. Sometimes the guards told me that Ray himself hated the crowd, or that I should go to a place with a lot of adventurers and stay out of the way.

Even the guards couldn't help but imitate being slammed by anonymous adventurers and griffons all over the city, so they advised Ray with a deep heart of desperation.

Of course that's not all the acts the guards did.

"Grrrrrrrrrrrr?"

"Well, there are a lot of people who are scared of Seto."

While Seto seemed happy, why? and the way Ray tilts his neck as well as the way he tilts his little neck.

This is one of the hands the guards hit. The information that Griffon Seto had contributed greatly to helping the passengers and sailors aboard the sunken ship was greatly expanded.

Other stories have spread about an adventurer of aliases and a griffon of high-ranking monsters that would be an important force against the lem race.

However, not only was it purely spread by the guards when it came to these rumours, but there was also a lot of information spread by the passengers and sailors who were actually rescued, or by the adventurers who were on the scene, or by the sailors of the numerous ships who were on their way to rescue.

"Well, if you have a lot of friendly opponents, I've never been over that. We don't want to cause a commotion."

"Grrrrrrrr"

Not everyone is sending a friendly glance at Ray and Seto, of course. Some of them send abominable gazes in association with a monster named Rem Race, or they try to escape seeing Seto, a griffon. But there were many glances of gratitude for doing more rescue work than that. And more than anything else, it was a glimpse of hope that a high-ranking monster like Griffon would do something about the lem race, which is no exaggeration to say it was eroding the city of this emotion.

"I just want to live up to that expectation with all the tangible benefits over here... but I didn't think I was staying completely underwater. Well, what's up with that?"

"Gru."

I rang my throat when I said cheer up, Seto rubbing his head.

With such a tight scratch of Seto's head, Ray and Seto go down the road.

(I was thinking "Dancing Flaming Snake" on the trump card, but there's nothing I can do if the main body doesn't show up from the sea in the first place. Even tentacles…)

I think so for a moment Ray, but soon I remember when I used 'Dancing Flaming Snakes' on Queen Ant before.

(No, a tentacle or something is likely to detach it before a flaming snake reaches the body, as it did when Queen Ant. In the first place, I don't even know if I have tentacles)

We have to figure out a new way to attack again. As I go through the city thinking that way, I smell a fragrant smell.

"Gru."

Seto probably smelled the same. Try to find the source of the smell and look around. And...

"Heh."

I try to follow Seto's gaze stopped and when I turn my gaze I find one stall. It was a stall where seafood was baked and sold, starting with skewered fish.

The sight of various species of fish being down-treated, skewered and burned on fire invites an appetite everywhere with the smell of fish fat being cooked, even though seasoning is only salt.

Originally the city of Gilm was on the plain one way or another, and the mountains and forests, anyway, do not exist the sea. When it comes to catching fish, it's about river fish, and it's also true that I came to the city of Emosion to enjoy seafood dishes.

"Do you want to eat?

"Gru!"

To Ray's word, eat! and Seto nodded, and one and one quickly approached the stall.

The closer you get, the more fragrant scent the fish can bake, stirring your appetite more than ever.

In fact, there were nearly 10 people around that stall who were happily tasting skewers and baked seafood on the net, whether it was meant to be a connection to dinner.

"Whoa!

In the meantime, a man who was eating a skewer of suspicious fish from Ray's point of view, having a green fluorescent color of about 30 cm in length, told Ray and Seto... More precisely, he noticed Seto and raised his voice of amazement.

The other guests who heard the voice also turned their gaze to Ray and Seto, but watched with interest without imitating that most of those who were there would run away.

Not everyone escaped, of course. A few of them ran off in a hurry, but given that it was almost a reflexive act without making noise to them, I would say it was a difference between cloud thieves compared to the city they stopped in before they came to the city of Emosion.

The old man in his 50s who was running the stall also noticed Griffon approaching. However, I concentrated on skewering and grilling without changing my expression.

And Ray and Seto are approaching...

"Grandpa, two fish skewers..."

"Look, eat."

Offer a roasted skewer without letting Ray say it to the end. It's a dish that you can't help but hesitate to eat if you normally think about it: skewered fish with yellow and blue spot patterns. However, all the guests watching around the stall raised their voices of amazement.

"Hey, that's definitely a fancy fish..."

"Oh. It's delicious, but it's a fish with a low catch and a pretty high price on it"

"Besides, there are fewer and fewer guys out fishing now because of the lem race..."

"That's a good one. You're Hao Yi."

"Oh, you wanted to try it because I could do it once. But I just can't have two silver coins for a snack."

Hearing his surrounding voice and knowing that the skewer-roasted fish he has is two silver coins, Ray gives a surprise look to his stall grandfather.

"I didn't ask for this fancy fish."

"It's my luxury. You're hungry, aren't you? Eat, because there were a lot of people who were helped by the Rem Race because of the kid. A tribute to the city of Emotion."

"... well, I'll be happy to. Thanks."

A short thank you, Ray, who clings to the skewering of the fish that was given to him.

The skin is so crisp that I don't think it's a fish, and as soon as I put it in my mouth, I unwind myself.

I just wonder if fat is still on me, but later persistence doesn't exist.

If you eat one bite, keep chewing with two, three, and four bites.

Next to such a ray, Seto was also throbbing in an upbeat mood. However, if I tried the size of the fish as a ceto, I would have eaten it in one bite because it was not that big, so it seemed a little short.

He eats the skewers silently, exhales satisfactorily and speaks to the stall's grandfather.

"It was delicious"

"Right. Lai Lai"

He grins at the care of his grandfather, who even communicates without words, and asks him as if he had come up with a fu.

"Can you tell me if there's a recommended inn in this city where Griffon can stay with me?

"... right. Go straight down the street there, turn right at the fifth bend, and keep walking for about 10 minutes, and there's an inn called Bihai's Coral Pavilion. It's a little pricey, but even Griffon would accept it. I hear it's pretty crowded right now, but if you say it's an introduction to Alctos, it'll be fine."

"It's a coral pavilion in the Bihai, okay. A lot of help."

"Never mind. Thank you."

Grandpa to tell you short...... No, I laughed at Alctus' words and tried to head straight to the inn where he taught me with Seto...... flipped on the spot and spoke to Arctus again.

"I'm sorry, but look after the skewers and shellfish appropriately for 5 silver coins."

That's what I told him after losing the taste of seafood that I haven't eaten in a long time and Seto's complaining eyes.

"Bihai's Coral Pavilion, huh. Sure, it's the right store."

The inn I found through the directions Alctos taught me is a badly impressive building with blue painted walls reminiscent of the sea and corals embedded in its walls.

To a degree slightly larger in size than the wheat pavilion at dusk, but still several times more inhabitants than the city of Gilm, or as a city of emotions coming from the outside, it would be a medium-sized inn.

"Seems like it's flourishing a lot as I heard... well, can't you do it at this time of year?

While that is the case, the skewered fish is chewed up and swallowed from head to bone, and the skewers are stored in the mistering.

"Grrrrrrrrrr"

Seto also throats in an upbeat mood at the beautiful building he sees again for the first time.

Bihai coral pavilion. Hidden famous stores such as Know It If It Was, but the city of Emosion today is flooded with massive adventurers looking to win rem racing prizes. Then, naturally, there were not enough inns, and a lot of adventurers were pushing on to Bihai's coral pavilion, which was famous as a hideaway inn.

"... can you stay?

I squeal unintentionally to hear a rather busy voice from the outside coming from inside the building, but still, I decide to just go in and let Seto wait outside and go inside the building.

What caught my eye at that time was the sight of tons of adventurers eating and drinking in the dining room behind the ground floor.

As with the general inn, the first floor is the dining room and liquor store, and the second floor and beyond is the inn, apparently. Having so decided, Ray speaks to the mid teenage girl at the inn counter.

"I'm sorry, but I'd like to take the inn."

"Huh? Uh... sorry, I guess it's a little hard right now. As you can see, the room is filled..."

I'm convinced the other way around, Ray, by the girl who tells me I'm sorry.

From the entrance to the inn, the dining room was also nearly full because it was visible.

But just in case, I'll give you Alctos' name.

"My grandfather introduced me to Alctos doing stalls... but still no?

"Introduction to Mr. Alctos!? Uh... wait a minute. Because I'm gonna ask your father right away."

That was all I told him, and he just dropped off the girl's rear running toward the dining room, and Ray was left on the spot.

"What do you want me to do?

I shrug as if it were just an unexpected development, but fortunately the girl who ran away comes back within less than a minute.

Unlike earlier, do you have a mother in her 30s or so behind you?

(No, didn't I tell you to go ask your father or something?

When I think of it that way, the general and the mother of the girl call out.

"I heard it was an introduction from Mr. Alctos."

"Oh. I bought a skewer. When I first asked, they introduced me here."

"Excuse me, but I don't think Mr. Alctos would introduce us to the extent that I bought skewers."

"Whatever it is, it means a thank you to the passengers and sailors of a ship sunk in a lem race."

"... Oh! Customers are rumored to be in the city!

You must have understood why I was introduced in Ray's words. The look on his face that seemed suspicious somewhere turns to a smile.

"There were rumors you were taking Griffon?

"I'm on the table. So, can we stay?

"Well, if I can stay, I can stay..."

The mother of a girl with a mouth cage that seems hard to say somewhere. I guess I didn't see such a mother. The girl opens her mouth better.

"Well, normal rooms are full of guests right now."

"I guess."

Turn your gaze toward the dining room again, where you can see adventurers and thinkers banqueting.

"Then go to another inn..."

"So!"

When Ray searches for another inn, he tries to block that word he's about to say and the girl goes on to say it.

"Well, if it's an unusual room, I can have it, okay?

"An unusual room?

"Yeah. Um, it's about half the size of the other room in the corner room..."

Though thinking about the words for a few seconds, Ray nods quickly.

"Right, as far as I'm concerned, I don't care about the size of the room as long as I have a place to sleep and a meal. So can you ask for it?

"Oh, yeah. Hey, Mother. Fine, right?

"Yeah, yeah. I'd like to introduce you to Mr. Alctos, and if that's okay with the room, I'm the city's benefactor, and you're welcome."

"So, what's the price? Oh, including the food on the griffon, please."

"You can have one silver coin per night, including breakfast and dinner"

That, Ray with an unexpected look of surprise at the extra cheap.

Even the wheat pavilion at dusk in the city of Gilm is three pieces of silver a night without spending on Seto's food. Given the population and prices here, I'd say it's cheap to break.

"It's an introduction by Mr. Alctos, and some of the city's benefactors won't get any more. It's only about half the size of a normal room this one can offer..."

Pushed by the words, Ray eventually decided to stay at Bihai's Coral Pavilion while he was in the city of Emosion.
