The word thundergod axe out of ray's mouth. The moment I hear it, Theorem's body hardens.
If you try to make it teolame, naturally the name sounds familiar. No, on the contrary, I even took Elk's family hostage to get rid of the person in front of me.
I mean, someone who definitely has a grudge against himself.
"That's... I wonder what to say. It's my honest feeling that I want you to be a different person if you can. I think Gilm had Rank A Adventurers and Rank B Adventurers besides the Thunder God Axe?
To such Theorem's words, Ray gently flaunts his shoulders and mouths to a cup of fruit water in his hand.
I still enjoy the slight sweetness of fruit water in my mouth, although it is quite warm compared to when I served it out of mysteries.
"Sure, they have other Rank A adventurers, but the Elks were the only ones available at the moment. Besides, if you think of it as a force of war, that's enough, right?
"You know what I'm saying?
"Oh. Naturally Elk resents you quite a bit.... No, should I say I'm angry"
resentment and anger. It is similar, but different in fundamental places. I would describe it as outward anger and backward resentment.
Theorem therefore shows some surprise at the words coming out of Ray's mouth.
"In other words?"
Let me get this straight, Elk wants to fight you when Dusker arrives in this village.
I understand that Elk has feelings on him that are not as shady as grudges, namely anger, but still distorts Theorem's expression in an unpleasant way.
"What is that, anyway?
I also ask with the meaning of confirmation, but what came back to that was naturally Ray's trick of nodding.
On the contrary, continue the words as if they were frightened somewhere.
"Ning Ro, I want you to thank me for that. I finally let Elk's wife Min help me get down there. If you try elk it, if you fight from the front and drop it, you flush it into the water for once... something like that."
I didn't think so very much from what Ray saw in Dusker's office, but still mouths it all at once.
Because, in fact, given Elk's temperament, I didn't think I could sustain strong anger for a long time.
And given that I also have a follow up on my wife, Min, I have an anticipation that I would be in the same condition I said I would be when I came to Goto.
(Most of all, even if it hasn't actually gotten that far when the elks arrived, in a way, you'll deserve it)
It's just elk like the prank kid's grown up as he is, and the love he puts on his people and family is pretty deep and pure.
The person who took that family hostage and ordered them to kill even more is Ray, who Elk is also his favorite figure.
"... you want me to die?
"Well, I don't know. All I can tell you to do is try and survive around here. I don't give a shit about it anymore, but if that's the same with elk, I don't care."
Naturally, if normal, Ray would take it for granted, too, to resent. But more than a year after Ray came to this world called Elgin. It was also a fact that I couldn't care less about the details in trouble after trouble.
"Dear Vihella,"
It was Theorem who turned his gaze to Vihera as he sought salvation, but it was his dazed gaze back there.
"Unfortunately, from what I've just heard, you can't defend yourself. Take hostages and make them fight, Ning Lo, as much as I'd like to re-slap your sexual roots. I can only say I deserve it. Ning Lo, is it really okay if I leave that child to you?
I guess I saw a seriously troubled Vihella and decided it was useless to say any more.
Keep looking hard and gathering your thoughts...... eventually after a few minutes, exhale slowly and nod.
"Okay. Let's take that battle with dignity. Think about it, if you dive through it, you'll also be able to draw in the power of the Thunder God's Axe..."
"I don't know. Elk was entrusted only with the escort of Master Dusker. Considering that, it's a little hard to pull into this case..."
Ray whines so much and reminds me of Minn in Dusker's office.
If you think about what you said to Elk, your husband, to keep you from waging a war, it's impossible to talk directly to Elk, but if Min convinced you to do so, it might be possible.
But soon I'll shake my head to the side and give up the idea.
Surely drawing in the Axe of the Thunder God would be a powerful force of war. But then again, the question of escorting Dusker arises.
There's no way I'm letting Rodos escort Dusker to get Elk or Ming's power.
"Well, it'll be hard"
Vihera and Theorem turn their gaze to Ray, who mutters as he was convinced by himself, but do not imitate the story steaming back when they see him say nothing more, moving on to the next topic.
"Does the coming of Larks Borderline Uncle mean we have to make some changes to our plans based on that,"
"I guess. But you won't have to go too far from Ray's original plan to get attention by going to the fight."
Ray also agrees with Vihera, who nodded at Theorem's words.
"Right, you can simply assume that the upper echelons of the Bestian Empire have more opponents to turn their attention to. As for my martial arts contest appearance, it seems to take the form of Dusker's recommendation."
"Wow..."
Vihera smiles bitterly in such a way as not to think of the words.
Ray and Dusker made a name for themselves in the Spring War. All of them will come to the Bestian Empire and compete in the Fighting Games. Try to be the upper echelons of the Bestian Empire and you'll just look like you're selling fights no matter what you think.
"In the form of the recommendation of Larks Borderline Uncle, it consists of a final tournament......?
A slightly frowned theolame.
I guess I'm not happy that the existence of Ray is delayed to be talked about in the Imperial capital.
But Ray shakes his neck to the side towards such a theolame.
"Don't worry, I'm getting out of the qualifying round."
"... okay? That's more than just being a Battle Royal. You don't know what it is, do you? Besides, when you compete on the recommendation of Uncle Larks, it definitely catches people's attention more than we expected."
"That's what this is all about, isn't it?
Teolame exhales accidentally into that word that was lightly returned.
"Sure, but things have limits. Ray, who worked in the Spring War, and Larks Borderline Uncle, who was his employer. With those two together, Ray will definitely be burdened with more than he can handle on the Larks Border Uncle."
"It's okay."
"Master Vihella?
"In the first place, you can't do anything with someone a little or softly, given Ray's strength. Besides, if you get your hands on it weirdly, you're just going to get paid back the other way. I don't think we're going to imitate how much we like and reduce our own power. … in order to teach it to the surrounding area, it will be necessary to beat it down so tightly that there is no one else involved like the first one."
Even with a grin, what Vihera was saying was tragic and extreme.
So much so that whoever has first been involved in Ray or committing an imitation like an assassination will undoubtedly regret it first.
"But that's only about some faction. It's probably ineffective for someone who's moving individually, so be careful."
"... I'll remember your liver."
I'm afraid of women when I have to.
I move on to the next topic, somehow thinking that way.
"So, we should help the third prince who is actually under house arrest..."
"On that matter, I'm sorry, but I want you to keep it a secret"
"Hmm?... oh, I see"
Ray frowned for a moment at Theorem's words, but nodded as soon as he was convinced.
Essentially, the role Ray is entrusted with this time is to draw the attention of the upper levels of the Bestian Empire. Helping the third prince that he is actually under house arrest is only the face of the Theorems and the third prince sect.
Even if Ray knows more about the area than he is, he could leak it to others in some circumstance.
Given those things, it's only Ning Lok Harm that Ray knows the story around there that doesn't actually need to move to rescue him.
Or if the Third Prince's power wasn't enough, he might have expected it against Ray's power, but I guess it's Theorem's decision that you don't need to worry about that more than you have Vihela.
"Then is this the end of the story?
"Right, sorry, but it will. After that... if there's anything else I can ask you, I'll answer?
Even if they say so abruptly, there's nothing in particular to ask.
Is Vihella safe for a moment? I thought I'd ask, but that would be a pointless question.
If there was no danger, it was not necessary for Theorem to come all the way to the Kingdom of Mireana for help.
If I had truly made that inquiry, I might have felt I was insulting myself if I had tried it on Vihera.
From the heart seeking battle, and with regard to his involvement in the life and death of his brother, who divided his blood.
"Yeah, I didn't care enough to say that, but what kind of prize or bounty would you have if you won a fight?
The inquiry that ended up out of Ray's mouth was to that extent.
I was concerned about prizes and prizes because I was somehow interested, even if the fight itself might be cancelled if I carried them well.
The Bestian Empire, also known as the Great Power, opens a fighting tournament with its prestige as a nation. I guess the prizes and prizes are even better than inviting important people from neighboring countries.
Ray's inquiry, which he uttered in that way, is returned with a slight bitter smile floated by Vihera and Theorem.
"... what's going on?
"No, it's true that the winner gets prizes and prizes, and there's a way for the clerk. Or it would be possible to take it up as a nobleman. There will be things like a glimpse with His Majesty the Emperor. However, when you have the strength of Ray, and you have rare magic items like item boxes and death sizes, and even Griffon is obedient... well, think about what you deserve for someone like that."
"Right. I've heard from Elaine that Ray collects magic items, but it's a practical magic item, isn't it? Considering that magic items from the art lineage, like decorating and enjoying viewing, for example, are not allowed..."
Tell him that much and cloud his words.
Furthermore, in Ray's case, he also demands a magic item worthy of the life of the third prince in return for cooperating in this operation.
Those demands were severe in many ways.
I don't need to worry so much about fighting competitions. But you have to pay for the reward.
(... Well, I wonder what's going on. I wish I could have hired Ray, but it is very difficult not to be specifically asked for something like this)
Theorame, who now has a headache for what he pays inside.
Vihera is also a Vihera, and she's just wondering what she's going to pay if she says she deserves to save her brother's life.
(I knew you'd use me as a reward... but that would make Elaine angry)
That was half the word I joked about in Exil, but if you think about it, it also seems like the best drop for you.
But if you chose that reward, it was easy to predict that Elaine would turn into an angry goddess of war later when she found out about it.
I also think that might be a good idea as far as I prefer to fight, but if that happens, it's also true that Ray will definitely be on Elaine's side.
A natural personality who prefers to fight with a maiden in love. Vihera thinks inside that it's hard to reconcile those two.
While watching those two, Ray thinks about what magic items he can get as rewards in Ray.
(There are death sizes when it comes to weapons, as well as tsu spears. There's a magic tent for camping, and a dagger for running water that's handy when eating. I have a clock to know the time and... Now, what magic items would be useful?
On second thought, Ray realizes that he is quite satisfied with the current situation.
When it comes to something more than this, there's nothing more that you can think of.
Of course it's just for now, and there's plenty of potential for me to come up with something later.
It was somewhere in the house that all three of them concentrated on their thoughts and ended up in silence until Ruchard came back after the banquet.
