To ambush three adventurers from above to a caged bakery, Ray and Seto were traveling from the site to a place about 10 minutes away with one of the guards.
"All right around here?
To the words of the guard, Ray looks around and then turns his gaze to Seto.
"Gru."
Seto rings his throat okay at Ray's gaze like that.
"It seems to be okay. Don't let anyone around you get hurt."
"Oh.... sorry folks but he's going to fly off for a bit! It's cooperation with the work of the Guard, so don't worry. Please help!
Speak out loud to the residents whose guards are turning their sights to see what's going on around them.
The gaze that Seto was gathering because of his presence with the guards, which is also becoming famous in Exil, turns into relief with that one voice.
Ray, Seto, or his lord, is with the guards. In other words, there were quite a few people with the thought that they might have been caught for some crime.
Most of all, the concern in that case was mainly with Seto.
In my impression of the residents, Seto seems to be overwhelmingly superior.
Still, Ray has a pretty good face, so there were a certain number of women who looked worried.
Either way, we can have about 5m of space around Ray and Seto in the words of the guards.
"Do you mind if I do this?
"Oh, no problem. Seto can fly in the sky with a few steps of help. Thank you."
"Grrrrrrrr"
To Ray, who tells him as he crosses to Seto, the guard shakes his neck to the side and opens his mouth.
"No, if we could have solved this in the first place, we wouldn't have needed your help like this. With that in mind, it's up to me to thank you.... please, make sure you help that bakery and the Latio that's being caught"
Ray opens his mouth with a small grin when he somehow realizes how this person has feelings for the bakery clerk - Latio - about the guard telling him that as he bows his head deeply.
"Regardless of the clerk, don't you need to help that father?
"Guh, shit, that's... anyway! Please."
Those who were listening around, not just to Ray, must have noticed the feeling of such guards. While pointing a raw, warm gaze somewhere - or a sharp gaze at whether he has the same feelings for the Latio as the guard - the guard dyes his cheeks red with an understanding of what he said to the gaze from around him.
"Like I said, that bakery is Seto's favorite. Me and Elaine are selling them over there too. I like the taste of the bread. Anyone who does something about a store like that will get what they deserve."
With a grin that some viewers can take as invincible, Ray gives a signal by slapping Seto in the neck.
"Grrrrrrrrrr!"
I get Ray's signal and go up high in the sky trying to kick in the air while wings are winged with a few steps of help through the empty space as it is around me.
The guards, the surrounding residents, or the adventurers, who were dropping off one of those and one, were blinded by the way they first saw Seto flying in the sky.
"Gru."
Less than a minute after flying off the ground, Seto arrives about 50m above the bakery and throats.
If it was Seto's original speed, it would have arrived less than 10 seconds ago, but when it was given full speed, it could have gone too far this time, so I adjusted the speed and slowed it down.
Ray listens to such a seto squeal and turns his gaze to the ground.
What you see there is, as always, the guards surrounding the bakery to prevent the killer from escaping. Outside of it, the inhabitants of Egzil - many fans of the bakery - are watching.
I don't notice Seto, almost everyone on the spot is flying in the sky, and Ray on his back.
With exceptions like Elaine and the captain of the guard or the few guards who were listening to Ray and the captain.
The reason the captain of the guard didn't tell his men about Ray and Seto is simple. If the guards are concerned about the sky, they will naturally realize that there is something in the sky for the residents around them. In that case, the killers, standing in a bakery and caged to explore what's going on outside, similarly notice that something is up there, and as a result, Ray's ambush is more likely to fail.
The captain, who feared it, had also stopped his men and carried them in secret.
"... okay, you're ready down there too"
"Gru."
Convinced that his extraordinary goodness of vision made him blind to Elaine on the ground only for a moment, Ray strokes and prepares Seto, who was similarly finding Elaine on the ground.
"Seto, needless to say, hesitation will not be tolerated if you actually start acting. We'll make sure the killer knows we're here. I'll secure the two hostages, so Seto needs to secure the killer. If I could, I'd lose my mind with one blow, like I wouldn't kill you."
"Gru?"
Why? Seto turns his gaze to Ray on his own back and asks.
I wondered because I know the usual Ray would have a character that doesn't repel murder, but Ray smiles bitterly at Seto like that and strokes his neck.
"Whatever we are, the two bakeries are ordinary people. You're not used to people dying alive at all. Then if you kill people in front of a guy like that, or hurt them grandly, they'll show you things they don't want to see all sorts of things over there. That could get in the way of bakery sales, right?
"Grrrrrrrrrr!"
You convinced me of that explanation, smallly rattling my throat with a willingness to consent.
"Okay, then you're ready. This ambush has the biggest advantage of poking at the enemy. We're gonna break through the bakery entrance all at once!
Just in case Ray's words got the knife for stripping out of the mistering, Seto nodded small without making a squeal, folding his wings and sticking them straight into the bakery entrance.
"Ahhhhhhh!
"Hey, that!
By falling from the sky, I guess I finally realized Seto's presence. A screaming voice comes from a wild horse who was watching what was going on around him.
It's flying in the sky, and its speed is pretty fast. For this reason, it is impossible to distinguish in an instant that it is Ceto, and furthermore, it would not have been possible to find out about the ray on its back.
Seto, who descended toward the ground in a straight line, plunged his wings wide on the verge of landing on the ground, killing most of his velocity, and at the same time landing on the ground without making a sound. Or no, he breaks through the bakery door all at once and enters it.
Destructive sounds that echo around you. However, because of a kind of adhesive state in which the burglars and guards standing in cages were staring at each other, those in the bakery naturally took the hostage bakery clerk, and the robbery was unable to cope with the incident.
"Grrrrrrrrrr!"
"Hih, hi, no, no!
A small man, still tall compared to Ray, who was watching outside right near the door is blown outside by a blow to Seto's forefoot.
Fortunately Seto had kept Ray's words well enough, so the little man had a few fractures without being like dying, but that was all he needed.
And beside Seto waving his forefoot toward the little man, Ray jumping off Seto's back quickly kicks the ground and narrows his distance toward the giant - not so much fat - who is poking his long sword at the woman's clerk's latio.
He was a man who was suddenly turning a stunned gaze at Seto as he entered, but as soon as it was just an adventurer collapse, he returned to me and noticed Ray approaching him.
"Goddamn, I'm coming... yah!
But that's probably why I fell off without doing it as an adventurer to decide what to do with the threat there.
But thanks to that, Ray was saved.
A quickly thrown knife flies as it slashes and rips through the sky, piercing it to the roots to the right shoulder of the giant man, and the long sword in his right hand falls to the floor.
If I really threw it, the knife would penetrate my right shoulder, and I decided that my arm would be severed as a result, so I threw it with moderation, but that doesn't change that for a man I feel severe pain.
"... Huh!? Hey, hey, hey, hey!
A giant man with too much pain to pull out a knife stuck in his right shoulder.
Seto, who blew the little man to the surface, moves behind the man and waves his forefoot as well.
A man who weighs 100 kg more than he can afford, but can't stand Seto's blow and gets blown straight to the surface.
Ray calls out to the Latio, who was held hostage, sideways as the guards arrive and capture him.
"There should be three killers, but what happened to the other one!? And your father!
"Ah... that, in the kitchen..."
In response to Ray's call, Latio returns to me, pointing to the back of the store, the kitchen, with a slight tremor.
"Shit, Seto's waiting here! I..."
I groaned as I took the knife out of Mystering again, trying to head straight to the kitchen, then.
"Ugh!
With such a scream, one man blows up as he breaks through the door leading to the kitchen.
For a moment I thought you were the father of a bakery, Ray, but there's no way the owner of the bakery is wearing leather armor.
Decide so, and take the man who has blown toward you with his feet.
"Gu Hu!"
Just as the blow hits his belly, he groans and loses his mind.
It wasn't hard to predict who did this while watching such a man.
I guess I poked through a gap where myself and Seto ambushed from above and snuck in from a winning move that lasted from the kitchen to the outside.
"... even if you blow it up, isn't it coming at me?
"I'm sorry, it's a coincidence. He was poking a weapon at the store owner, so if he builds momentum and blows it..."
When Ray speaks to the kitchen, Elaine shows up from there from the one with the shopkeeper blown away by a man.
What you have in your hand is a jointed sword that stays in the sheath.
Ray, who sees it, turns his pity gaze to the man who has been blown away.
The indication, the leather armor you are wearing, leaves a clear mark of a sheath being tapped, and maybe a few of your ribs will have cracks in them or if you're unlucky, they'll be broken.
"You guys sure used to..."
Ray is small and surprised by the voice of the shopkeeper's man.
The fact that this store is quite popular was confirmed by its eyes when I bought bread before.
That's when dozens, if not hundreds, of customers would come in the day, and I didn't think they'd remember just coming to the store once.
But soon convinced, Elaine blows me away and convinces me to look at Seto carrying the collar part out of the store.
(Well, if you've seen Seto at a glance, can't you just forget it)
To Ray, who thinks that way, even though he was taken hostage until earlier, in just a few seconds, the Latio, who was all resolved and taken aback, comes back to me and approaches me.
"Um... Oh, thank you!
Ray shakes his neck sideways, slightly bewildered by the way he bows his head deeply, less often thankful for his fears from day to day.
"Seto liked the bread here. I liked the taste of bread in this store, too. If you want to thank me, just give me some extra bread."
"Yes! Please wait a minute. I'll have the bread ready in a minute!
Latio tells him so and starts collecting the bread that was safe in the store, not to make him his own father and rejoice in being safe with the store owner.
Were the three of them standing caged hungry enough, or were a good amount of bread devoured, but still there were quite a few safe breads.
Only happy or unhappy or one Elaine noticed that the cheeks of the latio collecting it were stained thin and red, and a slightly harsh gaze would be directed at Ray.
"Uh... yes, this. I chose only something delicious in our bread, so please eat it. So is that kid, but if you don't mind... uh, can I tell you your name?
"It's Ray. The bread will be appreciated. Anyway, I'm glad the two of you are safe. This is the second time I've eaten bread here, but I'm afraid I won't be able to eat this flavor."
Whimpering, cooking the outside crispy and mouth into a sandwich with juicy chicken in it, or telling Seto so as he gives it.
I guess it's been quite a while since I made it, but still it's the arms of the shopkeeper who created this sandwich that hasn't lost the taste of chicken.
"I'm sorry about what we're talking about, but can I just let you secure the killer? And it would be helpful if you could help me with the inquiry."
Speaking to the captain of the convoy, Ray nodded and went straight to the jail with Elaine and Seto.
