With the green carpet under his eyes, Seto flies.
That figure, which wings heavily, would look like a bird or a beast from the ground.
Ray's gaze was directed to the ground, even as he flew through the spring blue sky.
It was from the thought of whether there were no figures of those who escaped from the woods, but the Cyclops were originally in a rather deep place in the woods, and it would take a considerable amount of time just to get out of those woods.
Also, each of them moved individually, which means that even if you encounter a monster in the woods, you have to do something about it individually.
I guess the odds are better enough than fighting Cyclops and himself from the front.
"Grr!"
A little further away from the forest, the meadows, to the streets, gaze to where there is still a little more, and Seto makes a sharp squeal.
To the chirping, Ray turned his gaze toward Seto's watcher... and he caught sight of one adventurer running on the ground.
"That's..."
The person who looks familiar is naturally one of the former guerrillas.
That figure, which is still running desperately after getting out of the woods, was running beyond its physical limits when it needed to be informed of the Cyclops threat toward the Guild a little sooner.
"Seto"
With just one word of that, Seto understands what Ray wants to say and what action he wants, and descends toward the ground with his wings winged.
"Grrrrrrrrrrrr!"
Seto honking to draw the attention of those running on the ground.
Naturally the voice also reaches the ears of a man running vigilant about what is going on around him.
To the suddenly audible voice, the man immediately stops to explore the signs around him.
But you must have noticed right away that the voice you just heard sounded familiar. Look up at the sky with such expressions as incredible.
At the end of the gaze so pointed was Seto's figure, who naturally put a ray on his back.
"Mr. Ray! Seto!"
A man screaming like a delightful face.
Some of the leather armor worn was quite dirty because it ran at full speed through the woods, but there was such joy in the look.
Naturally. Because the former guerrilla man has seen Ray's strength countless times and is engraved in his heart.
"Actually, in the woods..."
"It's about Cyclops, isn't it? Don't worry, it's already cleaned up.... No, you can't say it's completely cleaned up because there's a chance there's a Cyclops besides what you guys saw, but all of Johanna and the others are safe"
"... Huh?
All of a sudden I can't believe the words that came out of Ray's mouth, and my gaze at Ray like, what are you talking about?
It wasn't surprising that a man thought so, because Ray said we were ahead of ourselves.
But soon I get a convincing look that Ray wouldn't be surprised if he did.
Ray opens his mouth to solve such a man's misunderstanding.
"When I went to the guild, Dietz came. So listen to me."
"... Dietz, you made it"
A man who exhales in relief.
As we were thinking about the possibility that the Gilm would be damaged by the Cyclops and, above all, that we would not survive, Dietz's return to the Gilm safely reinforced the troops... and it was enough to appease the man that he had called for more powerful reinforcements than ever called Ray.
Besides, the next thing I know, a man moves into words that come out of Ray's mouth.
"Oh. Vihera was there, too, and it was enough for her to fight."
"Dear Vihera!? Uh, that Vihella is the Vihella I know, right? of the Bestian Empire…"
"Right. I don't know the owner of the name Vihera other than the one you're talking about."
"Why did Master Vihella say that when we were coming to the Guild, when it was spring?"
The man who understands why Vihera is in the Guild accidentally thanks.
Thanks to Vihera, we saved ourselves.
Of course I was grateful not only for Vihera, but also for Ray and Seto in front of me.
Ray continues the conversation without looking like he cared about how such a man looked.
"Whatever. Don't worry about Cyclops for now. Mileyne said, you don't have to let Gilm know. To tell you that, I've been traveling in Ceto, and I figured you weren't with the others?
"Huh? Yes. Everyone ran away scattered.... In that sense, Mr. Ray often met Mileyne. I knew you were running away like me in the woods?
Ray had a look on his face like he didn't know what he was talking about for a moment in the words out of a man's mouth, but he immediately understands.
I mean, I guess Mileyne and the others didn't say anything to the others, and they served their lords to keep Cyclops from chasing their people.
"No, I met three people, Mileyne, Sulnin and Johanna. I was stalling the cyclops, you know."
"... Huh?
A moment ago, Ray floats, a man gives a look similar to the look on his face that he doesn't know what he's talking about.
But the man was also just acting as a former guerrilla, which is never a bad idea.
As soon as I understand what Ray is saying... what Mileyne and the others stayed on the spot for, I look up to heaven without being able to speak any more.
Spring blue skies are spreading there.
"Absolutely... what a lover."
Even as I whine, it's a bitter laugh to be on that look.
A few seconds go by as it is, and I finally turn my gaze from sky to ray and open my mouth.
"So, the three of you were safe, right?
The word with certainty would be because I trust Ray and Vihella's strength.
To such an inquiry, Ray nods.
"Oh. There's a scratch or something, but there's no such thing as a fatal injury or major injury."
"Really?... Ah good. When I get back to the Guild for now, will I be able to afford food? I don't have much room for money."
"Do that to him. So, I'm headed to the guild..."
"Ah, yes. That's right. Maybe it's not like I'm the first one out of the woods, maybe that's better. It costs money to form a crusade."
I guess the man also understood the problem in forming a crusader that he could immediately return that word to Ray's words.
"Well, it's time for me to go, but if I can join the others, I need an explanation of what's going on around here."
Tell the man so, and Ray crosses into Seto's back again.
Then Seto buzzes the man hard and then starts running away.
He wings after a few steps of escape and rises to the sky.
The man who was looking up from the ground switches his mind when Seto and Ray look smaller and walks out toward Gilm.
Praying to be able to rendezvous with a fellow who escaped in another direction.
"Well, it's easy for me not to have to go back to Gilm as far as I can as long as I can see the other faces.... Wouldn't it be so easy?"
"Gru!"
Seto leaks his consent to Ray, who groans looking down at the green meadow.
As I'm flying through the sky with my wings flapped, I can inadvertently hear my belly ringing.
If you think about it, it's already past the middle of the afternoon and it's almost evening time.
But I didn't have time for lunch because I jumped out of the gilm to help Mileyne and the others.
If you think about it that way, it's no strange story that Ray's stomach is going to claim to be hungry.
I used to buy and eat a lot while I was guiding Vihella and the others, but I guess I still couldn't fill Ray or Seto's belly.
"Gru......"
Hearing Ray's belly sound like that, Seto also remembers that he is hungry again, he rings when he is hungry.
Seto turns back and complains of hunger with circular eyes to Ray on his own back.
If I could turn that gaze on him, Ray would want to feed Seto something again.
I guess it had a lot to do with Ray being hungry, too.
"As for eating at some store after running errands at Gilm for now... that's the connection until then. Here."
It was the sandwich that was removed from the mystering.
If I could, I would like to simmer the meat in the pan, feed Ceto such dishes as stew, and I also had the desire to eat Ray.
However, I have basically bought such dishes in a pan.
I mean, if you really want to cook like that, you just have to go down to the ground and make lunch time, or if you suck, you can serve the pot on Seto's back ready to zero the dishes on the ground for each pot.
What makes food crude is… If Ray admits and ruins the dishes he bought and asks if he wants to eat them now, the answer is no.
Besides, the sandwich has never been less flavorful than saving the freshly made one in mystering.
Freshly made sandwiches combine the soft texture of the bread in the mouth with several ingredients to demand more hungry stomachs and more to eat.
I put up with wanting to keep eating, and Ray feeds his sandwich to Ceto as well.
The sandwich on Ray's hand is cleverly couched, and when it is chewed in his mouth as it is, Seto throats at its delicacy.
"Grrrrrrrrrr!"
Like Ray's belly, Seto demands more sandwiches.
As I was eating myself while giving such a sandwich to Seto, I immediately saw the gilm.
It must be natural given Seto's speed of flight, but Seto descends toward the Gate of Gilm with his wings winged at Ray's signal.
... Still eating a sandwich would be the reason Seto was settling.
There are those in front of the gate who, naturally, are in the process of going inside.
Nearly evening, so was the number of adventurers who completed the request.
Because of this, there is hardly any one who would be surprised if Seth came down to earth.
Most……
"Mr. Ray! I would have asked you to be a little away from the gate when you got off!?
I was cautioned by Langa, who noticed the noise.
"Bad, Langa. I was in a bit of a rush.... No, if Ranga's here, is that just fine?
I guess you understood that the look on Ray's face, who shrugged so much, was never a joke.
The look on Langa's face changes from angry but troubled to questionable.
"What's wrong with you?
"I think you know I went to reinforcements for the Cyclops crusade..."
"Oh, of course.... Could you possibly say you let Cyclops get away with it or something?
Zawali, and.
The moment Langa uttered it, the adventurers who watched Ray and Langa interact around them blurted.
What's on that look is stunning.
Naturally. Few adventurers are based in this guild and do not know what Ray and Seto are capable of.
If he were there, he would be the one who had just come to Gilm and had never actually seen Ray, even if he had heard the rumors.
... Even such a person would not make a mistake first if Ray had Ceto.
"No, it's not. The Cyclops have already cleaned up. I just had another problem."
In Ray's words, Langa gives a slightly unpleasant look.
Because I know that the problems that Ray has been involved in are mostly important.
Because of that experience, I guess I thought something nasty went wrong.
The anxiety in the langa was hitting, and so it was off.
There was a problem there to be exact...... it was a red cyclops or actually there were seven cyclops and there might still be others, but most of them have already been solved.
However, the fact that there may be other cyclopses remains.
"Well, what's the problem?
"There were not five cyclops, but seven, and there were more rare or superior species."
"Huh!?
Even if I was expecting something to go wrong, it would still naturally surprise me to hear it in person.
Because Cyclops is a rank C monster, and they told me that there are seven of them, and that there are even more rare species or superior species.
The same was true of those who listened to Ray and Ranga around.
"Oh, don't worry. Because I defeated all that cyclops. It's just that before we arrived, each of the crusaders fled separately. They may come to report that the Cyclops crusade is beyond their control."
"Oh, I see. He wants to stop it."
"It will."
Langa exhales in relief at Ray's words, thinking a little and opening her teasing mouth.
"Then you can rest assured. There were no Cyclops crusaders among the faces that came back after you left. If that's what's happening, you'll know as soon as you get back."
To the words, Ray exhaled relief... and decided that it would be better to keep the guild informed for now, so that we could go through the process of getting inside the guild.
