Legend

Ray had little difficulty coming back to the entrance just for the dungeons where only two levels existed.

Goblins have come out several times, but that has also been swept away by Ray's hands.

It was Ray's expectation that the body would remain intact as before, but that it would be irrelevant because of the slime.

Nor can we deny the possibility that other monsters remaining in the dungeon will eat goblin corpses on an empty stomach, and before that, there is an expectation that if the dungeon collapses, there will be no point.

(The goblin undead is... there won't be much demand for it though)

Think that way as you go up the stairs leading outside.

Eventually I saw the gap in the rock that Ray had passed when he entered the dungeon... what Ray saw out there was an already dim sky and a burning fire to outrun the cold.

"Grrrrrrrrrr!"

Ray coming out of a gap in the rock...... more precisely Seto, who was feeling signs of Ray and magic that were heading out from inside the dungeon, rushes over with joy.

Ray gently strokes his head back as he rubs it against his throat.

You haven't noticed the skill thing yet, or you don't particularly care, and you don't look grumpy at all.

If someone with a giant like Seto moves, naturally the soldiers around him will notice it.

It's only natural that he cares about the move because he did a few acts like tailoring the monster coming out of the dungeon with a blow by Seto, the first to react.

"Mr. Ray? The dungeon..."

Langa asks reassuring Ray, who is playing with Seto, that the monster has not come out.

Ray strokes Seto's head while removing the nucleus of the dungeon, which has become two straight from the mistering.

I guess Langa didn't even know what that was at first. I stare at the nucleus of the dungeon that is held in Ray's hand for a few seconds or so... eventually I think of what it is and open my mouth in such a way as fear.

"Ray, could that be..."

"Oh, it's the nucleus of the dungeon. The offense is complete."

"... Gru?

The nucleus of the dungeon? and Seto throats with eyes on the hemispherical round metal that Ray has in his hand.

"Sorry, Seto."

Only before Langa, he couldn't say anything bad about what, but still, Seto would have understood what Ray was trying to say. Never mind, I rub my face in the throat.

It's a shame Seto couldn't get his skills in the nucleus of the dungeon either, but he doesn't expect Ray to destroy the nucleus of the dungeon to be mean to him on purpose.

It was somewhat understandable, even for Seto, that there would have been circumstances that could not be helped.

Seto rubs his head to comfort Ray, representing that he doesn't care.

I guess I know how Seto feels about that. Ray also smiles and strokes Seto back.

"So, Mr. Ray. I'm talking about attacking the dungeon... can I talk to you about that area?

It was Langa who was watching Ray and Seto play, but I guess he understood that he had made a paragraph. Speak up toward Ray.

Ray also nods back at Langa's words like that.

"Oh, no problem. I just don't have that much to talk about."

"Well, I guess so. It hasn't been that long since this dungeon was made, so it won't be that deep.... I guess that's why monsters come out of the dungeons too"

Langa's gaze was pointed at the side with a rock, also the entrance to the dungeon.

There was a stack of goblin bodies there, the number of which exceeded twenty, preferably.

Ray, who saw a crystal on some of its corpses, strokes and strokes, and turns his gaze toward Seto, who is pointing his circular eyes at him.

The fact that Ceto is a rare species doesn't have to be hidden anymore.

But still, the crystal brace that traps the target in the crystal didn't want him to be left in contact with the human eye if he could.

Crystals can be useful as alchemy materials, as well as accessories.

If you're blinded by greed, you might think about giving Ceto a little bit.

(I guess it's my mistake that I didn't tell Seto not to use crystal braces... no, which one of you guys would be looking for Seto himself more than crystals and stuff)

Off sight of Goblin's body and back to conversation with Langa.

"So, I wonder. I want you to let me know if you've noticed anything by attacking the dungeon."

"... right, just one. What's the story in the Guild this year that gamelions are hard to get?

"Yeah? Yeah, it sure isn't hard to get, so Gamellion's meat is pretty expensive to buy at the store. Gamelion is the only ingredient I can eat this time of year...... wait a minute. The fact that we get that story out here, could it be?

Langa, who was effortlessly returning words to Ray, opens her eyes as if she noticed something in the middle of those words.

That's the same with the other soldiers who were listening in silence, and everyone is turning their surprise gaze to Ray.

With that gaze turned, Ray nods and talks about the sight he has seen in the hall with the nucleus of the dungeon.

"Oh, it's a little too much to say that the gamelion is in a space with the nucleus of the dungeon... but it was so packed that I wanted to say so. I can't say anything because I didn't count properly, but I think maybe there were more than fifty of them"

"... Oh my God. I didn't know there was a reason for the low number of gamelions here this year"

In Ray's words, the other soldiers as well as Langa give an equally surprising look.

Gamelion meat is the only substitute you can eat this time of year.

Unless, of course, it is processed into dried meat, but then it really falls compared to the raw flavour.

So I was wondering if I wouldn't be able to eat a lot of gamelion meat this year...... few people were sad that way.

"So... can I assume that Gamelion's meat flows to the market?

Just knowing how much Ray and Seto's appetite is, Ranga asks in such a way as to be afraid.

Ray thinks a little about that langa inquiry, turns his gaze toward Seto, and then eventually nods with disapproval.

"If it's about ten."

At first it was Ray who was thinking about putting about half of it on the market, but this is how he was talking and slightly but I guess greed came out.

Gamelion's meat is so delicious that it doesn't seem like a Rank C monster.

"Hmmm...... ten. Well, given the size of the gamelion, I think it will do some good..."

"Well, there shouldn't be any more gamelions being summoned than attacking a dungeon, so it's a little late, but from now on, I think we'll get gamelions. Besides, given that in the end all I got was about fifty, it's quite possible that it's simply too late to show up like Gamelion this year."

"It's about the dungeon, too, isn't it?

"Maybe, but I can only say"

Gamelion ends up around there, then moves on to other stories in the dungeon.

"Nevertheless, that was a dungeon with quite a few goblins"

"Uh, yeah. I guess it has something to do with just being done. I think this has brought out other monsters over time."

"There was an orga, but it was kind of a lot less tall than the orga I know"

"I guess it has something to do with the fact that it's just a dungeon."

"As a fighter, that would have been nice... but the materials are cheap."

To Ray, who asks him to confirm, Langa smiles bitterly and nods back.

"According to what I've heard, you are. That's what I'm talking about. No matter how many goblins you collect, you almost throw them away."

I'm glad I didn't collect the goblin ingredients to make for the words that came out of Langa's mouth, Ray.

"Oh, yeah. Ray, give that to you."

Several of the soldiers called in by Langa bring a flat-sized leather bag.

I was handed that, questionably, and I looked inside the leather bag, and what's in there is the shards of the crystal.

Most of them were only about the size of their fingertips, but still it was certain that with this much it would be a certain amount of money.

A glimpse of Seto, also the source of the crystal, Ray returns the leather bag received to the soldier as is.

"No, you take this."

"... okay?

"Oh. Looks like Seto bothered you. It's a token of gratitude for adoring Seto."

"Well, Ray, if that's what you say, let's just take it. I sold this crystal for gold, and I'll let you roll it out to the tavern when I get back to Gilm. It's going to cost us all about a night's drinks. Thanks."

It was a small, bowed langa, but when its head was raised, there was a sharp light in its eyes.

The look on his face as one who is in a position to wrap up the guards of Gilm, not a good person of people with his usual tough face.

"So, Mr. Ray. Could Seto be a rare or superior species of griffon?

Try Langa, this was all I really had to ask.

Depending on the content, you need to report it to Dusker.

If I were to hide it, I even thought I needed to hear it out somehow...

"Yeah? Oh, yeah. Seto is a rare species of Griffon."

Ray answers Langa's questions lightly.

Langa is also surprised by this, he opens his eyes small and looks toward Ray and opens his mouth again to make sure.

"Uh, once again, just in case. Seto doesn't mind the perception of a rare species of griffon,"

"Oh.... well, speaking of which, you've been here for a while. Then you don't have to know. I've already reported this to Master Dusker. Seto used his skills in front of a large crowd when he took part in the civil unrest in the Bestian Empire. I've been hiding it until now, but when it does, I can't keep it hidden."

"... Huh?

Langa with a tough face, but when I saw the trick as if her eyes were dotted, there was a strange amount of affection.

Ray continues his words, feeling somewhere really clear about how Langa is doing.

"Maybe... maybe it's not just Master Dusker, it's spreading among the guilds?

The reason for that is the presence of the emigration hopefuls who came to Gilm with Ray.

The former guerrilla face normally sees Seto using his skills, and even his associates watch Seto fight when he is raided by bandits and monsters on his journey.

The information could not have spread so easily to the guilds, but the network of those who adore Seto is vast.

Naturally it was very likely that there would be a few Seto lovers in the Lords' Hall as well, and it was well thought that information would flow from it.

And once the information leaks outside the Lords' Hall, it will soon be spread from there to the Seth lovers in the Guild.

Of course, even for those in the Lords' Hall, if the information is important to the Guild, there is nothing to flush.

But sometimes Seto's information is not something Ray himself has already tried to hide, and it's not that secret.

Soldiers, starting with Langa, nod convincingly to such an explanation of Ray.

"... I see. Indeed."

Because I live in Gilm, I guess I knew how much power the Seth lovers have.

"Anyway, I know about you. If Master Dusker knows, I'm not going to say this, especially over here. So, Ray, what are you going to do now?

"What do we do?

"It's getting dark already, and the gates are closed when I get home now... oh well. Can Seto's speed still make it?"

Looking around, it was still thin and bright when I came out of the dungeon, but it was already completely dark.

When I looked at the pocket watch I took out of Mystering, it was past five in the afternoon.

Even if I go home now, I'm sure I'll make it enough if it's Seto's speed.

Do you want to stay here for the night and head to Gilm tomorrow morning, or do you want to ride Seto home right now?

Think about which one you choose...... make your decision without getting lost.

"I'm going back to the guild. With a magic tent, this cold won't be as bitter, but I'd like to sleep well at the wheat pavilion at dusk if I can. Besides, I want the Dungeon's offense delivered to the Alliance as soon as possible."

"Hmm, right.... Well, I'm a little sorry, but I was wondering if you could give me a minute. I'd like you to take a report that Dusker attacked the dungeon."

"Okay. Make it as fast as you can."

When he heard Ray's words, Langa nodded and immediately hung on to drawing up the report.

Most importantly, it's only the first report that the dungeon was attacked, not the official report, so I guess it was lucky for Ray that it didn't take that long to make that report.
