Ray, who was walking down the back street not so far from the library in Gilm, eventually discovers the building of interest.
"Bye, Seto."
"Gru."
To Ray's call, Seto lays himself down from his surroundings to a place where he can't see much as he throats, knowing, and hides his body.
That look of sleeping would also make the cat look round if you didn't think about the size and season.
... although it's like a cat with wings growing from its back.
Such a glimpse of Seto, Ray opens the door to the building.
Moments are warm enough to compare to the cold outside...... no, hot air covers the rays.
With a slight frown on the air, he screams to hear even in the back of the store when he confirms that there is no one in sight.
"Pamidor, are you there?
"Whoa, there he is!... what the heck, Ray"
That's what I came out of the back of the store saying, a man on the strong side who at first glance only seemed like a criminal.
It doesn't just have a vicious looking face, it also has enough muscle to be lifted lightly with one hand if it's about as good as Ray's, and looks more like a bandit than a bandit around it.
Especially now that sweat was erupting on my forehead because I was blacksmithing, it was becoming extra powerful.
The enthusiasm when I opened the door would be for that.
Ray, who knows what kind of person Pamidor is, calls out even when he sees his opponent like that, without paying any particular attention.
"What are you talking about? This is still a customer.... no cumito?
"Kumito is going out. You came looking for Kumito, not me."
"No, that's not what I said. I just asked."
"Well, fine. So, what can I do for you? Kumito told me you were coming back, but you're not the kind of person who comes all the way back to say hi, are you?
To Pamidor's words, Ray takes the Devil's Sword out of Mystering when he clasps his shoulder small.
No, it's broken in the middle of my body, so should I say two former demon swords?
Either way, Ray, who took out the demon sword, hands it to Pamidor.
"Hey, this guy... he's a pretty good substitute, huh?
"I guess, I know that. It's the devil's sword that Rank S adventurers used, and it's not a substitute around here."
"Rank s!? Where is it?
"Bestia Empire"
Listening to Ray's words, which he tells briefly, Pamidor immediately thinks of the name of one person in his brain.
"Immovable noise, or"
"Oh. I had some business in the Bestian Empire, and that's when I fought."
"... so, the demon sword is broken... you won?
"No, I was just missed."
"Heh. Even you couldn't help your Rank S opponent."
"I could have had some resistance for once. I just need you over there to retreat..."
I was probably losing.
Pamidor heartily admires Ray for swallowing those words.
Sure, Ray is strong. That's so much so that adventurers around there can't help themselves.
Pamidor himself is only a blacksmith, but I understood that Ray was strong as an arm-written blacksmith.
Also, when I rubbed it about the Azot Chamber of Commerce, I didn't see the strength in person, but I heard the story.
Pamidor also understood that it was difficult to admit that he was weak just because he had that much strength.
"Still destroy that immovable demon sword? It just feels like a little bit of a feat."
Watch the demon sword fragment in your hand.
When I saw my torso broken in two, I understood how powerful the blow I had been.
"For now...... I am only a blacksmith. If you're going to strike the Demon Sword, you need to borrow the hands of such people as Alchemists and Wizards who are familiar with it. What are you gonna do, leave it with me? I'm going to go to the alchemist when my current job comes to a close."
"Uh... right. The truth is, I'd love to come with you for a bit, but I'm going to head over to the dungeon for a bit."
While answering Pamidor's words, he was also fascinated to meet the alchemist as Ray.
Because of the periphery, there are a large number of alchemists in the Guild looking for rare materials.
Of course that level would be lower than that of the Bestian Empire, which is investing in alchemy as a country, or the Ozos, known as the Magic City.
Still, as for Ray, I wanted to see a decent alchemist.
... In the sense of being an improper alchemist, I've encountered something about the Azot Chamber of Commerce a while back.
"Hmm, I'm not saying I can't. Then I'll do it this way, so you can show your face after tomorrow."
"Okay. Then I'll show my face when I get back from the dungeon. I asked for it."
A man named Pamidor has a strong temperament for his evil face.
As for Ray, who also knows he has good arms, I wasn't reluctant to let him handle the Devil's Sword thing.
Most importantly, that is because the Devil's Sword is the substitute obtained at last.
If this didn't have to be Death Size...... if it was something I used from time to time like Tsu's spear, running water dagger, and Nebra's eyes, I would have firmly gone with Pamidor to see the alchemist.
Not to mention if it was Esta Knoll's work, starting with the Dragon Robe... if we couldn't fix it here, we would have headed to the Empire of Vestia and Ozos.
As for the demon sword of noise, it's only a coincidence that I got it, so as for Ray, I just think that's fine if I can use it.
"Whoa, I got it. The Devil's Sword used by the Rank S Adventurers is going to be a good job for me."
Ray goes outside, taking Pamidor's voice like that on his back.
"Gru?"
When I found out what Ray looked like coming out of the store, how was Seto? He approached me with his throat rattling as I said.
Ray strokes Seto's head while encouraging ahead.
"No, but he said he'd show it to the alchemist for once. I've done my errands for now... shall we go to the dungeon? I don't know if I can attack you by the end of the day."
"Grrrrrrrrrr!"
Seto throats happily at Ray's words.
I understand that I may not be able to get into the dungeon, but I guess I'm still happy to be able to fly in the sky with Ray.
He walks around the city with Seto like that, and naturally Seto arrives at the gate even though he can be heard.
"Hey, Ray. Seto, too. Are you going out of town?
A guard who went through the process when Ray came back to Gilm calls out to Ray.
The time has already passed when the most people pass through the gate, and now I guess I'm free.
In fact, there is no one in the process of leaving the gate, but only about a few exist.
"In the dungeon I heard about before."
Wow. A guard who flaunts his face like that.
"You really like it. I told you what kind of place it is, didn't I?
"Yeah, I gathered a lot of other information. But still, I want to go for once."
"... Well, you're a high-ranking adventurer with an alias, so I wouldn't worry about anything I say... be careful. No, I don't even need to be careful it's that dungeon."
"You're not. Dungeons are places where you don't know what's going to happen."
Pass the guild card removed from the mysterious ring and the obedient devil's neck decoration removed from Seto's neck to the security and ask for the procedure.
There are only a small number of people, and the process ends quickly.
"Well, good luck with that."
"It's gonna be tough in the cold over there, but good luck with that."
Speaking to the hard-working guards in the cold, which isn't strange whenever it snows, Ray goes outside the gilm with Seto.
Originally, they wanted me to stop flying near the gate, but now, fortunately, there are few people around me.
"Seto, let's go then"
"Grrrrrrrrrr!"
Seto rings high at Ray's words across his back, wings winged after a few steps of aiding him and goes up to the sky.
Rather than flying in the sky, the expression is fitting as if running in the sky.
Neither a few guards who were near the gate have words about how Ceto looks like that, they can only be blinded.
"Seto, the dungeon is over there. Go straight ahead, please."
Head in the direction indicated by Ray, Seto wings.
Once the wings are winged, go quite a distance.
By winging continuously, its speed is further increased.
If it were, it would be over this time of year. It's not strange to tremble in the cold as it happens, but Ray has a dragon robe, but Seto doesn't suffer this degree of cold as a griffon at all.
Ray learns once again the awesomeness of a being named Seto as he watches the view of the earth pass through.
If you go on the ground, you're basically going down the street, but the street isn't stretching in a straight line.
If there is a mountain, it bypasses, if there is a valley, it bypasses, if there is a river, it bypasses to a shorter part of the river width.
You can describe it as crooked.
But if Seto can fly, he can fly straight regardless of that.
Moreover, the speed is different from the speed at which it travels on the ground.
"Ah, Seto. Turn right at the stone place piled up on that street."
"Grrrrrrrrrr!"
To the words of Ray, who saw a pile of stones placed as a landmark off the street, Seto bends the direction of progress by squealing his throat.
As we continued straight off the street, we eventually saw several tents stretched out on the ground. It's a destination dungeon.
I guess the tents are used by the soldiers staying here.
The distance, which would have been a few hours by carriage, was indicative of how fast Seto was flying, that he would arrive in about enough time after flying the guild.
Enjoy a walk in the air, even though it's not all you can do.
"A tent.... a tent at this time would be pretty tough if it wasn't like a magic tent"
If it's a magic tent, you'll never feel the cold outside.
However, there is no way that a normal tent has such a function, and naturally a solid tool for cold protection is needed when sleeping.
Some of those who were burning near such tents notice something approaching from the sky... or someone.
It was the soldiers who reflexively took the bow in their hands, but as soon as they found out it was Griffon flying through the sky, they lowered that bow.
... so we're not putting the bow on the ground while we're at it, because if the approaching Griffon isn't the Ceto we know, we'll intercept it right away.
Most of all, if it's Griffon other than Ceto that's really getting closer, there's nothing a soldier can do with a bow or arrow to the extent he has... on the contrary, he just buys anger.
Soldiers finally de-alerted after seeing Ray on Seto's back as he went down to the ground.
Head to those soldiers, Ray coming down from Seto opens his mouth.
"It's Ray the Adventurer. To attack the dungeon…"
"Ray, is that you?
Before I run out of words, I can call you like that.
Turning to those who heard voices, it was a tough bearded middle-aged man there.
In a position that brings together Gilm's guards, he's now Langa, who leads soldiers here and alerts monsters coming out of the dungeon.
You were on a break, Ray grins and opens his mouth against Langa, who just came out of the tent.
"Long time no see."
"Grr!"
Seto rings his throat, too, as Ray says.
I guess the way it looked was interesting. Langa also smiles and puts her hands up small.
"Long time no see. From what I just said, did you come to attack the dungeon?
Ray nods back at Langa's words.
"Even the shallow dungeon was a story, so you wanted to give it a try. If I can attack by the end of the day, that's fine, and if I can't, I want to experience what kind of place it is. There's no off-limits, is there?
I heard that if you're an adventurer, you can usually get into a dungeon, but Ray just asks just in case.
Langa nods naturally to Ray's words like that.
"Of course I don't mind. But I'm talking about this dungeon being less fruitful... if that's okay with you."
"I don't have a problem with that because I hear it when I'm gathering information about the dungeon. Well, hurry up...... yeah, Ceto will wait outside, okay?
"Yeah? Oh, I see. At the entrance to that dungeon, is it impossible for Seto to enter? Yeah, I don't mind. However, sometimes a monster comes out of a dungeon, but then..."
Ray, who understood what Langa was trying to say, nodded back small.
"When the monster comes out, I'll let Seto fight for it, too. Whatever I don't have to say, it's solid around here."
"Grrrrrrrr!"
I'll take care of it! And the rest of the soldiers exhale in relief, not just Langa, to Seto, who rattles his throat.
I just live in Gilm, naturally we all know about Seto.
That's why I'm relieved that I won't be busy outside for a while at this point.
The monsters coming out of the dungeon are not that strong. No, it's clearly weak, but I don't know when it will come out... and since this is the edge, there are times when monsters that strike from around you are stronger than monsters that come out of the Ning Lo dungeon.
I understood that monsters like that would be safe with Seto.
