Legend

A few minutes after I left the Silva family mansion, I abruptly came out of the mouth of Vihella, a word that I wanted you to fight against yourself.

When she heard it, Elaine was suddenly amazed at what she was going to say, and Büne was looking to two people, Vihera and Ray, for some reason with a small grin in her mouth.

"Can I ask why?

Ray, who took a straight view of the gaze directed at Vihera, asks.

The inquired vihela has a small grin on her mouth and at first glance it just looks like the usual vihela.

But... yes, but. The look on your face is the same. But you could have said that the emotions in your eyes were completely different.

That light of crazily seeking something rather than pleasantly seeking the battle of your own choice.

If you simply wanted to enjoy the fight, you would have responded immediately, apart from whether you would take Ray or not.

But if you look at the emotions in Vihella's eyes right now, you can't respond to them in a detour.

"Why? Isn't it strange to hear that? You knew Ray liked to fight, didn't you? Is there something wrong with me applying for a fight against Ray?

"... I'm asking because I thought it was strange."

"Vihera?"

It seems that after getting here, Elaine finally realized something was wrong with Vihera too. It was a surprisingly loud Elaine, but Vihera had no wind at all concerned about how Elaine was doing, just waiting for Ray to reply.

At this point it was already clear that Vihera was different than usual.

Even though there was a strong man named Elaine until now, there was no point in asking for just Ray straight away.

That's why he's ignoring it as if there's no Elaine on this scene, and he's just gazing at Ray.

"What do you mean?

"Yeah. For me being me. And to convince myself. I really want to fight you, Ray."

Magic through the armor, generating nails. Point the tip of that nail towards Ray.

Vihera, who is long as a woman, and Ray, who is small as a man. Beyond that, nature and Vihera were in a position to look down at Ray, but if you still made it into Vihera, the opponent in front of you felt like a wall blocked as a wall.

……

That each other stares at each other silently, for a few minutes.

Elaine and Buune could not speak either, and even the adventurers guarding the Silva family, who were watching the surroundings, could only watch.

Eventually, Vihera will never be able to retreat. And I guess you found out you weren't going to leave. Ray nods small and opens his mouth.

"Okay, let's fight."

The moment that word leaked from Ray's mouth, Elaine, who was listening nearby, sighed and Büne nodded silently.

It would have been nice if we had gotten this far. But Ray glances around in frustration when he realizes that the adventurers belonging to the Silva family nearby, or even the adventurers who have been employed by the Silva family since yesterday, seem to be clearing their ears with interest.

Many of the angry adventurers in that gaze quickly leave the scene by deciding that if they stay here, fatally unsavory events - and that's not like an injury - will happen.

It should be said that there was no one around here who was purposefully hired by the Silva family or just belonged to the Silva family and could not feel the frustration contained in Ray's gaze.

Make sure no one is around but ourselves, and once again Ray turns his gaze to Vihera.

"So, when are we going to fight?

"If I could, I'd ask you tonight."

"... again, that's pretty steep"

In the course of the day, they say, Ray smiles bitterly.

But Vihera continues her words without breaking her serious expression.

Chirali, and Vihera looking up over.

At the end of that gaze, the sun, as intensely self-asserting as ever, was shining, and bright blue skies and bright white entrance clouds claimed the season of summer away from the sun.

"It's going to be a nice moon night tonight with this weather, and I'd like it to be tonight if I could.... How's it going?

"I get it. There's nothing wrong with me. But can we do it at night?

The conditions are naturally too different for fighting at night and day. In Ray, who has a weapon called the giant Death Size, and in Vihella, who specializes in close combat by fighting, intermission becomes particularly important.

But it's naturally hard to grasp the mistake compared to day if it's a fight at night.

And for those with first-rate combat skills, Ray and Vihella, it's not uncommon for that slight difference to separate wins and losses.

But Vihera nods with a grin at Ray's words like that and opens her mouth.

"Yeah, of course. Besides, the hours of the night never just work against me."

……

Vihera's grin, which she told him so, was similar to the grin she had until yesterday, but something was decidedly different.

"Okay, it's tonight. Where?"

"How about where me and Ray first danced under the moonlight? Fortunately, it's quite big over there."

Vihera's words remind me of the park where Ray fought Vihera empty-handed, unarmed.

Certainly that place was a lot bigger and there was no shortage to fight than it was a place where people wouldn't even get lost at night.

"Fine.... then tonight"

"Yeah, tonight. Nice... yes, let's make it an unforgettable night"

That's all I tell you, leaving the Rays on the spot and walking to someone with the Silva family in a different direction than where the carriage stops.

Büne also follows after a glimpse of Ray and Elaine without saying anything.

"Are you sure? Nothing. You wouldn't have had to fight Vihera, would you?

"That's what I thought at first, too.... However, that willingness to be put into the sight of Vihera was very different from previous invitations to fight. Perhaps we should see that there are some circumstances. Besides, we've been helped by Vihella, haven't we? Then it's not a bad idea to go out with Vihera in the sense of giving back."

When challenging the dungeon, in it, or outside the dungeon, in the exzil.

Ultimately, I got involved in the battle with the Holy Light and the Marchelle family, so it's not a bad thing for Ray if you can repay me to the extent that I fight.

Most importantly, there must have been a Bühne problem with the Marstells, but it was still true that they had helped, and Ray was grateful for it.

"As far as I'm concerned, I don't really feel comfortable."

"Why?

"... no, somehow"

Whether you say something or mouth cage, you end up deluding Elaine.

Leaning his neck at the look of it, Ray haunts his mind about what to do with his time to night.

"I've been on my way to the dungeon... and I got the magic item I wanted."

"Oh. It was unexpected, but I was lucky to Ning Ro, considering I wasn't sure I could get it among the dungeons"

There was little need to dive into the dungeon already, as it was a pair of orbs that could be talked about in the first place.

If there is, it means we get the Demon Stone...... think that far and Ray remembers that there are Demon Stones that he hadn't absorbed yet.

(One Forest Panther Demon Stone and three Kamaitachi Demon Stones.... Well, doesn't it make sense to have more than two? But it doesn't matter where you absorb it. I don't have a ceto.... Is this later?)

Thinking that way, Elaine's gaze as she walks next to Ray is directed toward Ray.

"What's up?

"No, remember there was a demon stone to absorb. However, given the time and place, I thought we should stop today."

"Right....... I guess it's time for me to end the holiday too than I got the orb against"

Elaine floats a slight color of sadness in her eyes in the middle of words.

Yes, Elaine came to Exile, a labyrinth city, only to get a pair of orbs.

It was only natural for Elaine to go back to the Duke of Keller after getting what she wanted, than she was forcing Ara to make time for her vacation.

And that also means that for Ray, the time spent in this Exil is over.

"Whatever you say, it was a full day."

Not even a month has passed since Ray and Elaine came to this Exile. Nonetheless, the days I have spent were more of a rich one than a full one…

"Uhm. Even if I were you, I would have left it up to Ara, but I can see you're about to drown in paperwork"

"Like a boss?

I guess that word fitted so perfectly that there was no more. There's a smile on Elaine's mouth like that unexpectedly.

Ray nods contentedly when he sees the color of sorrow disappear from his eyes.

Keep walking and the two get back in the carriage from where they got off when they came to the Silva family.

"So you decided what you were going to do now?

Ray nods and opens his mouth to Elaine as she asks looking out at the view.

"Oh. I'm going to keep the spear replenished"

"With that said, you also used it in last night's fight against the oliqueur. How much for the rest?

"Only if you can dispose of it, that's pretty little left"

Of course, there are still substitutes that can't be disposed of, spears from Tsu, which is a magic item, or spears that I liked and bought from a weapons store, but that's a true aside.

Again, when it comes to throwing spears, it was the easiest thing to use to dispose of.

"Well, then I'll go out with you, too. I want to buy something for Ara and Dad."

"... let me tell you something, it's the weapons store I'm going to, right? It's not like a souvenir shop."

Elaine just nods naturally to Ray, who asks with the meaning of confirmation.

"But there could be something on the way, right?

"I don't deny that, but can I take that kind of souvenir to the Duke? Ara would be happy with anything Elaine gets."

That's what I told Ray, but basically confetti like souvenir buns and chocolates in Ray's image were not present in Exile before the souvenir.

Cookies are quite common, but if you still want to sunrise as a souvenir, that was no.

"When it comes to souvenirs from labyrinth cities, I guess dungeon stuff or something is common. Ray, I want you to let me know when you come up with something nice."

"Is it from a dungeon? Then what about the material?

The carriage stops when we're having a conversation like that, Ray and Elaine buy something that's going to be a souvenir just like we were talking about, or they stop by the weapons store, the blacksmith and buy just about a broken spear, and then head back to the inn as they buy and eat like they did on their way home from the dungeon.

From the side, it was only a sight that seemed like a date, but I guess it was Ray and Elaine who were unconscious about it.

In my shopping when I went to the desert hierarchy, Elaine was looking forward to dating too...

So, back at the inn, a little early, but off to prepare for the battle with Vihera... the night is coming.

"If it's just night, it's cooler than day..."

Ray wears a dragon robe hood while frowning at a temperature that never drops at night.

There is no cloud in the night sky, as Vihella spoke during the day, and only the brilliant moonlight is pouring down.

Moon rain. Fuji such a word floats behind Ray's brain, but if he's not even like himself, he smiles small and shakes his head.

"What's up?

Elaine looks next to such a ray. This one wore the same gear as he did when he left for the dungeon again.

"No, it's nothing.... than that, are they really coming?

"Oh.... annoying?

Ray shuts up and shakes his neck sideways to Elaine, who asks anxiously if he has no heart.

"That's not a problem.... It's just that as far as Vihella is concerned, unlike previous fights where today's fight was half-play, there seems to be something to think about.... I don't know why, but as far as I'm concerned, I don't want you to imitate it."

"I know. Let's not get our hands on it."

You're relieved to hear the words, or you travel to the stables and take Seto and Yellow out to the city at night.

Sometimes yesterday today is somewhat less crowded, but still, if it is also a summer night, it will have the effect of luring people into the city. People heading to the tavern, or already returning from the tavern. Whorehouses, downtown, and more.

Keep walking as you gaze at those people...... eventually you arrive at the park where Ray and Vihella fought before.

"Did I make you wait?

Ray speaks to Vihera, who stood at the end of her gaze, exposed to the moonlight.
