Legend

"What do you think?

Ray, driven out of the store selling magic items, asks Vihera as she strokes Seto as he approaches and rubs his head against her.

"I don't care what they say. As a merchant, wouldn't it be natural to be wary of your own purchasing route? I don't think there was anything particularly strange about me."

"That's right. I just feel like I'm just sorry for the clue breaking out here, but I still don't feel like I have a clue here. Is that my way of thinking?

"... I don't know, I don't think it's surprising that Ray's account would have hit it. But as far as I can tell, I don't think you're going to tell me who bought it from over there.

"Mmm."

"Gru?"

What happened to Seto, who had Büne agreeing with Vihella's words and was being stroked by Ray? and tilt his little neck.

"Right. When that happens, I'll be back from the beginning again...... what do we do?

"I don't care what they say we do. It hasn't been long since me and Büne came to Gilm, has it? What am I supposed to do with us like that?

It was natural, if you ask me, but it is also true that wonder and Vihera and Buune looked ray as if they were familiar with Gilm.

"Hmmm...... do you want me to talk to you around Langa? Or do you have little clue to report to Mr. Dusker?...... yeah? Clues?"

Mumbling so much, Fu Ray remembers the magic item incense furnace he got on his way to the cave.

"That said, you had a lead. And some alchemists are going to look into it."

"Oh, was there something you could lead us to?

"Oh. Look, we talked about this in the dining room, right? Talk about where the monster's body is kept in large quantities. That's where they got the magic items that were set up to keep the smell of blood and rot from spreading around. If you look into it, maybe you'll find out what it is"

It would have been nice to have had the nucleus of the golem or the pot that was behind the cave... and unfortunately Ray grunts, but Vihera just turns to some haunted look.

"I wonder how lucky I am to get caught up in every rub, but I also have something that could conveniently lead to its resolution."

"Even if they say so. Anyway, suppose I go see Azimov? That's all right, right?

There is naturally no objection to Vihera or Bühne beyond being asked by Ray or having any other clue, and he nods back immediately.

"Grrrrrrrr"

Seto also rang out and agreed with the opinion, and Ray's line thus went to Azimov's workshop.

"It's a place with a lot of people. It's almost evening."

Near evening, people naturally come and go more.

Apart from a few early meals and the actions of city dwellers such as shopping and going home to work, there are also a number of adventurers who have finished their requests if it is a peripheral guild, and the number of guilds will increase considerably… Now there are few people around the house that combine Azimov's workshop.

Sometimes passers-by show up, but from here they run off on a small run whenever they say they want to leave as soon as possible.

To Vihera, who groans with such a view of her surroundings, Ray answers that question remembering that he had previously asked Pamidor the same.

"Well, given Azimov's character, it's not weird."

"... you must be really okay, right? I've only met him once, so I can't trust him that much."

"Mmm."

Bühne nods as he agrees with Vihella's words, but Ray gently knocks on the door in front of him as he listens to it.

"Azimov, are you there? You got a minute?

That's what I call it, but there's no response from inside.

Do we have to take the door off or something like Pamidor did if we stay like this? With that in mind, Ray knocks on the door again.

"Hey, Azimov! You're not here! Come out now!

The sound of knocking on the door with fists gradually grew louder, and I deserved to describe it as beating rather than knocking already, and I was sure that the door would be destroyed before it was so far away, at that time.

"Ugh! Damn, it was a nice corner, but all of a sudden!

I guess I couldn't stand being interrupted in my research. Azimov shows up with blood vessels floating around his forehead.

"Looks like you heard it right today. Good."

"Am I?... Ray? What can I do for you? This one's hanging on your spear right now, but what are you gonna do with it, my client?"

"Sorry, I just need you to take a look at something. When I said I knew him and he was an alchemist, all I could think of was Azimov."

I guess I was somewhat concerned about the expression handyman. The frustration that was floating in Azimov's face, though somewhat, subsides.

"Damn. Well, fine. Up. I'll listen inside."

"... bad. Oh, this is a souvenir for once. Azimov would love that."

That's what I said and offered you, the hair I lost when I was stroking Ceto on my way here, and the wings.

For Ray it is a substitute that can be prepared in any number of ways, but for Azimov it was a very rare substitute as an alchemy material.

Some people who live in Gilm are getting used to Seto and are losing their sense of reality, but what is inherently a Griffon is a very rare and rare Rank A monster.

Those who risk their lives to get that material and lose their lives are many.

Since so much material is readily available, Gilm is a very beneficial place for people like Alchemists, Blacksmiths and Pharmacists in Gilm.

Gilm was becoming a special place for the Alchemists of the Kingdom of Mireana, as scarce materials were originally gathered because of the border.

"Are you sure?

"Oh. Help me."

"... well, fine. I just wanted to catch my breath. Come in a little."

While Azimov's attitude suddenly changed but he smiled bitterly, Ray, Vihera and Bühne enter the building.

Naturally Seto will fall asleep outside on perimeter alert as usual, waiting for the Rays to come back.

"Well. What brings you here on purpose at this busy hour? I've already heard from the lord that the hammer was made by the Alchemists of the Bestian Empire."

"No, not that way. Actually, I need you to take a look at something."

"Hmm?"

To Ray's words, he turns away from the annoying appearance he's had so far and turns an interesting gaze.

Again, it must have been huge that Cyclops gave out the hammer he had last time.

Didn't you bring the same thing again? Ray gives Azimov the incense furnace he took out of Mystering as he turns his gaze with such anticipation.

"This... isn't such a substitute for you"

Azimov, who was touching the incense furnace and looking into it, whines in unmotivated words to make him want to say what the gaze of anticipation was a few seconds ago.

"Really?

"Oh. The hammer you brought was a pretty handy substitute, but it was made with the hands of the same person, which is a lot worse. It's not that I don't have the technology, so I was probably rushed to make it."

"Wait."

It was Azimov's word, whining as if it were nothing, but Ray realizes there was information there that he couldn't hear, and stops Azimov's words.

Ray wasn't the only one who noticed it, and Vihera was also pointing her sharp gaze towards Azimov.

"Yeah? What's up?

"I'm talking about that incense furnace, made by the same person who made the hammer, is that for sure? Even the Alchemists of the Bestian Empire, is it possible that it was made by a different guy from the one who made the hammer?

"None"

I assure you I don't even have to think about it, and I'm going to open the lid part of the incense furnace and show it to Ray.

"This is the part. You know what I'm saying? I'm here to soak Lizardman's heart, the substitute that doesn't take out the demon stone either, in magical water, and then dry it up so that it flows magic using powdered objects, but this habit is the same as a hammer. It's quite valuable."

"That means there's someone else who uses it, right?

"He'll be there. But it's characteristic of creating a magical part. A magic item that uses the same material and has similar characteristics. I don't think there are many of them who imitate the equilibrium between left and right intentionally. No, it may not mean that he's not at all, but it's a little inconceivable to have all those people near the gilm."

Did Hing come on board while he was talking, Ajimov raises several other hammers and incense furnaces in common.

Listening to it, Ray noticed himself wonderfully convinced.

(Turns out it was the alchemist in the example who was using the monster as an experimental bench in that place)

I had predictions, but still there was no certainty. It's mostly a substitute for circumstantial evidence.

One step at a time, but definitely closer to the Alchemist.

(When that happens, next... I just want you to see who made the Seymour magic item if you can. No, Azimov's in a good mood right now, and can we go?

Once you think about it, Ray acted quickly.

"Azimov, I'm sorry, but can you hang out with me from now on? There's another magic item I'd like you to see. If we make it clear that the magic item is in the hands of the same person who made the incense furnace or hammer, this is a big step forward."

Azimov gives Ray's words a disgusting look for a moment.

Naturally. As for Azimov if I could, I would like to do my research... specifically to build a spear for Ray.

But... and a glass bottle with its gaze a little further away. It was directed precisely towards the hair and blades of Ceto, which were in its glass bottle.

If I say no here, I may not be able to get griffon hair, blades and other materials from this time on.

I would rather spend that effort now than regret it at a later date.

"Okay. So where do I go?

I just thought it was something to say I didn't like to go, Ray, but sometimes Azimov is unexpectedly good to hear, and even with a surprise look on his face, he stands up to start moving quickly when he returns to me.

"Well, let's go quickly"

Following Ray, Vihera and Büne also rose, and Ray and the others headed to the place where Seymour's stall was located.

"Uh, I think it was around here."

Already the time is evening.

As the sunset lit its surroundings red, Ray, Vihela, Bhune, Azimov, and Seth and one walked.

I came to where Seymour was when Ray came back to Gilm, but I can't find that distinctive figure.

He's a big, muscular guy, a slightly rare type of guy who doesn't look tough while he's at it, so it's a ray that I didn't think would be hard to find, but it's a totally off the charts shape.

"Gru!"

To such a ray, Seto rattles as he gently pulls the dragon robe with his couch.

Ray, who turned his gaze toward Seto, finds Seymour in those who Seto is watching, exhaling in relief.

"There you are. There.... thanks, Seto"

"Grrrrrrrrrr!"

To Ray's words, Seto sounds his throat gladly when he finds Seymour in the smell.

When Ray led such Seto and Vihera to the place where Seymour's stall was located, the customer had just finished making the payment.

"Oh, Ray. What's the matter with you?

"I was just looking for Seymour. Different place than when I got here, though?

"Yeah? Yeah, there's a lot of people going through this time of year, so this one has better sales. … it's convenient to be able to move around like this."

To that word, while I am convinced that it does, I will give you a price for fruit water for the number of people.

"Four and one, please"

"Every time"

"And if you can, can you show me the magic items? Azimov over there is an alchemist, and when I told him about the magic items Seymour had, he said he'd like to take a look."

"Hmm... Ray's going to be pretty good at it, and I don't mind... don't break it, okay?

"Who broke gu!

Vihera blocks Azimov's mouth, which she almost said was superfluous.

Of course Seymour did not imitate it to miss it, but especially dawns the place on Azimov without saying anything more.

Sometimes a guest has dropped a paragraph, and it would affect that Ray has the same hobby of collecting magic items as he does, even if he has different directions.

"Well, please"

"Hmm."

When Raymov asks Azimov to free himself from Vihela, he examines the magic item as it is... in less than a minute, and Azimov opens his mouth towards Ray.

"Just like you expected."
