Legend

Dinner party where all the villagers eat the meat of giant pigs that Seto defeated. The pruning of wheat was also going well, and the voice echoed into the village square as all the villagers were tongue-in-cheek at the pork dishes during the evening.

For the first time ever, the villagers turn their gaze toward those who spoke unexpectedly… everyone stops the movement.

I was there because she was beautiful enough to see it for the first time in her life.

A sharp gaze that is worn a robe, but reveals how its red-purple wavy hair drops zero or the intensity of its chi. But at the same time, there is a soft grin in my mouth.

What you're wearing on your hands and feet are your armor and toenails. It is somewhat uncomfortable that both are worn by beauties like the one in front of them. I felt uncomfortable, but still had a strange sense of unity.

Next to such a woman, there is also one man in a robe.

Dark hair cut together at the shoulders and a gaze that reveals the strength of the will.

Even though the presence is doubled, it doesn't seem as prominent when you are with a woman for some reason.

On the outside, travelers stopped by the village in search of overnight accommodation. However, the presence emanating from the two people is no exception.

For a moment, the hustle and noise of a lively feast calms down and silence fills the surroundings.

The first to open his mouth in such silence was Ray, who swallowed a sandwich across pork meat with a vegetable soup full of summer vegetables.

"Vihera, Theorem too. That was faster than I expected."

He who heard the word, and was gathered in the village square, understands.

He said these were the two people Ray was meeting.

"Uh, good. Was these two Ray's rendezvous after all? That's what they said in front of the village gate, but you can't believe it completely."

Exhaling relief is one of the villagers who, pitifully, was entrusted with the role of gatekeeper at this time today.

Get as close as you can to the place that was subtly transformed into a banquet hall and reach for skewering.

Two strangers suddenly asked in the evening. At first, while I suspected it was a bandit trap, there was no way I wouldn't guide you if you told me you were meeting someone named Ray.

Anyway, Ray is the one who knocked down the giant pig that was headed for our village.

I guess this, or if Ray had come to the village initially, he wouldn't have even reasoned something into the village...

A giant pig like no hands or feet on his own...... even though that's the animal, I had no intention of turning Ray to his enemies following a griffon that would hold a pig in one blow that could be lightly killed by a low-ranking monster like Goblin.

It was also true that he felt grateful for saving Epica, the youngest son of the entire village, from the giant pig.

"Oh, that's who I was meeting. Thank you for showing me around. I don't mean to thank you, but you can still eat this."

Rai, who stood up, served some of the dishes that were nearby and gave them to the man who had guided two people so far, Vihella and Theorem.

The man who receives it smiles happily and quickly reaches for a skewer grill that is easy to eat among the dishes that were in the plate.

I guess it hasn't been that long since I baked it. From the meat cut into bite sizes, the fat of the pig drips, and that, combined with the sauce that Ray served out of the mysteries when baking again, drifts a kind of violent, if I may say so, smell all around him, which is very appetizing.

Because it was firstly cooked on high heat, the outer flavor of firm teeth and sauce overflowed from the meat, and the gravy spread across the mouth, and when the meat was chewed up, it was able to enjoy the softness of being sucked into the tongue by the streets of fire about medium rarity inside.

"... delicious..."

The squeamish man goes back to the entrance to the village with a plate, not to mention anything more he can say to his mouth.

I guess I wanted to feed a few of my buddies besides myself.

Having dropped off his hindsight, Ray speaks quickly and all the way to Vihera and Theorem.

"You'll be tired for now, and how about you guys have a tummy first?

"Yeah, let me do that."

He nodded instantly at Ray's words and without any hesitation, Vihera lowered her back to next to Ray.

Speaking of Theorem, I smile small at how Vihera looks like that, then I circle my gaze and find Luchard, the person I'm looking for.

Even Luchard must have noticed that. Keep your friends around you who are still in love with Vihera and get closer to Theorem.

"It's been a while. You're back a lot faster than I expected."

"Oh, the horses are doing their best. Most of all, I've been working too hard and now I'm resting near the entrance to the village. If there's a stables, get them ready."

"Yeah, so do you mind at my house when it comes to where you're staying?

"Where's Ray?

"He's my house, too."

"Well, then, come with me."

"Okay. Um... so, she..."

Who is it? That's what Luchard tried to ask, then.

"Whoa, whoa, whoa!

Suddenly I hear voices that seem both cheering and calling.

Ruchard turned his gaze toward those who spoke in haste, but what he saw at that time was a beautiful woman coming with Theorem in front of him taking off her robe.

No, there's nothing strange about that if that's all.

It's a must have robe when traveling, but it's certain to get in the way when you relax.

But under that robe layered so many thin coats that the other side seemed transparent, fantastic... no, I can only say too fantastic a garment. That was the exception to the story if it was something that dancers and whores weren't strange to wear.

Its thin clothes sparkle in the sunset light, creating a fantastic atmosphere around.

He was attracting the villagers' eyes to no more, including men and women.

That's the same with Luchard, who can't keep his eyes open at first sight.

"... do you know how attractive you are?"

Luchard returns me to those words that were spouted with a sigh behind him.

I said... There's a theolame with the alias flash.

It was only then that it was clear that that person, who was attracting the attention of the villagers so much more, was not the only one.

Vihera, on the other hand, taking the gaze of the villagers all by herself, says she eats delicious food next to her loved ones in a good mood and grin next to Ray, whom she hasn't seen in a while.

As a woman, I was wrapped in the best of happiness.

(Most... I'm afraid no one's worth fighting for.)

Squeeze the freshly baked bread inside as she carries it to her mouth with a stew full of pork meat.

There are three main human desires: appetite, sleep appetite and lust, but in the case of Vihera there is also a fighting appetite to be called fourth desire.

I enjoy the banquet by not putting it on my face, although I'm sorry there are only about Ray and Theorem and Seto who will fill it up.

It was the villagers who lost their words to the beauty of Vihera at first, but as time progressed, they must have gradually become accustomed to the air as well. Eventually, though gradually, those who hung up their words to Vihera began to appear.

"Are you that thin and dangerous? Men are all beasts, aren't they? That's why beauties like you can eat in no time."

"Pfft, it's okay. I'm still strong. If you can free my body, it's just someone who beats me.... Hey?

Chirali, and it was Ray tasting pork steak with Seto who was gazed at.

I suppose those who saw it and spoke to Vihella also understood. The thoughts you have about Ray, the person in front of you.

At the same time, several men who had fallen in love as if they were deprived of their souls just at first sight of Vihella, hear the words and give a look of despair.

No matter how we raise ourselves, there's no way we can beat Ray, who has a deep red and alias.

The despair is terrible, especially the men who watched Seto crush the pig's head.

Sure, it was Ceto who did that, but Ray can follow that Ceto. I mean, because I understood that if we were to get the woman in front of us, we would have to beat Ray, who would have more power than that ceto.

"Well, I don't know"

Ray flaunted his shoulder small and went straight back to the task of savoring the steak.

It was Vihera who tried to say a little something against Ray like that, but still decided he didn't deserve it on this occasion, he reaches out to cooking the same way next to Ray.

"Hmm... you haven't had a drink in a long time"

In the living room of Luchard's house, a glossy vihella sounds somewhere.

Currently there are only three people in this House: Ray, Vihera and Theorem.

Luchard, the original lord of this house, still participates in the banquet in the village square.

And right on the side of the house, he rolls asleep and looks like Seto, wary of someone approaching the house.

Until now, Seto had been banned from entering the village, but this time he was officially authorized by the village chief to rest in the village for the merits of protecting Epica.

He also had the opinion that it was pathetic not to let Seto into the village for a few days before, and this case was cut off.

"Alcohol is fine, but please don't take your wings off too much. Because it's an important body."

"I know. That's more about what's coming. Ray, that means you made it here safely, didn't you?

The gazed ray nods as he sips the cold, cold fruit water removed from the mysteries.

"Mostly. … However, some things have changed compared to the original plans"

In that word, Theorem's brow moves pickly.

"Hmm. Mind if I ask what exactly is unusual?

"Master Dusker is headed directly to the tournament."

"... Larks Borderline Uncle on purpose, huh? Can I take that for granted as Ray's cooperation?

"I guess. I don't think that's so bad, though?

To Ray's inquiry, Theorem agrees, albeit with a deep sigh.

"It's definitely quite appealing in terms of war. But the price is the problem. Especially when it comes to moving the big guy around the Larks border... Now, what kind of conditions are we going to be offered?"

I'm happy to have more bills to hang up, but many I would lose instead.

Vihera also agrees with such Theorem words.

"The central figure who leads one of the three factions in the hostile kingdom has come forward. Sure, it's gonna be a lot of trouble."

"Dear Vihella, don't be too much like other HR..."

"Oh, as far as I'm concerned, I'm already out of the royal family of the Bestian Empire, so it's pretty close to other personnel, right? Still, I have feelings for my flesh and blood, so this is how I'm helping."

Theorem exhales at the words he tells as he moisturizes his throat with the cold fruit water he receives from Ray.

But at the next moment, Ray's mouth will report a more troublesome incident.

"Dear Dusker, naturally we need more escorts than we need to go to the Bestian Empire, which is also an enemy country, right? I can escort you, but there's a martial arts competition."

It was as if objects were caught in the back teeth, but the neutral faction - whose power is exceptionally low compared to that of kings and nobles - which is said to be the three main factions - is headed out to an enemy country where it was in a state of war a few months ago.

It would be impossible not to take one of the escorts in that state.

On the face of it, I guess Ray will be the escort, because that Ray himself is practically no more able to escort than to compete in a martial arts tournament.

"I mean, you want me to get an escort here?

While returning words to Ray, the area is compelled to make a very difficult decision for Theorem.

In the first place, the Theorems' own faction, which is said to be the Third Prince, is not such a large force in itself. Furthermore, as things stand, the third prince, the flag, is also under house arrest, essentially with Theorem moving the third prince.

Naturally some within the faction do not find it interesting, and I can say that it is now overwhelmingly understaffed.

In the meantime, it was obviously painful to give the leading aristocrats of our neighboring country their own gestures... and if it was also to serve as an escort to a big man named Larks Border Uncle, we would have to provide the corresponding force.

Besides, the table also has the difficulty that Dusker and the Third Prince are not cooperative or anything, so they have to put out an unknown figure of face to other forces.

(Together, around the Adventurer Alliance......)

That was a teolame to think about as well, but that's also difficult considering that many of the arms-up adventurers would compete in a fighting tournament.

But Ray tells Theorem that.

"No, I've got it in the gilm when it comes to escorts"

"I see, that helps"

It wasn't just words, it was a teolame that squeaked like a real relief...

"Except that the escort is a Rank A Party thunderous god axe"

In one word, I stopped the movement by accident.
