Legend

"See you later. You don't have to come home any time, my son-in-law."

Optis laughs at Ray standing in front of the carriage and tells him so, and at the next moment he bows his head small.

Then a shockwave created by the Spirit of the Wind passes past where the head of Optis was until a moment ago.

Speaking of wind shockwaves, it's not that fatal of a blow. That's weak enough to slap lightly with your fist.

"... Grandpa, don't be ridiculous, will you?

"Whoo-hoo. Really? I don't mean it. Besides, the materials of the world tree... and most importantly, the will of the world tree."

Optis' gaze was directed at the light sphere, which is heavier and brighter than usual on Ray's side.

I don't understand the clear intentions of the light sphere, but it was expected by everyone on this occasion that the Rays would still probably miss their return.

Especially when I went yesterday to get some world tree leaves. I just seemed ashamed and happy, but the thought really gets stronger.

"Thank you for all your help, including Lord Ray. Honestly, I had a bad first meeting impression so I thought what would happen..."

A slightly lit ragd lowers his head to the Rays.

It was a ragd in conflict with the marina in the sense of protecting this settlement, but the settlement was still protected.

If Marina hadn't brought Ray, the world tree would probably have dried up.

And Ray, Elaine, and Vihella are the ones who were able to intercept the monster's army from the settlement.

... I had some thoughts that it was Ray's magic that made the giant cicada so huge.

"Right, there was a lot going on"

When Ray looks around while talking to Ragud, people like Jusla and Ordovan are exchanging words with each other at the marina.

Auduban, who came to call the marina up to Gilm, or Jusra, who was helped to be captured by bandits.

There are other faces I saw during the battle.

The sight of people like Elaine, Vihera and Ara talking to the Dark Elves got into Ray's eyes.

It was Ray, who was only a little hand-held, but he had four dark elves on his own...... I notice that coming up with kids too.

I don't even have to look at that face to see who it is. Ian, Kalja, Murus. And four of the kid general Lugudos.

"Ha-ha, ha-ha! When he's gone, no!

Of all the children approaching Ray, it was Mullus who opened his mouth first.

Pull Ray's dragon robe with the same tongueless voice.

I don't even know why they missed me so much, but I still don't feel bad when I see someone who admires me.

"Um... are you sure you're going? Even if I stay here a little longer..."

"That's right. You can stay a little longer. If the elders say anything, I'll say it back!

Karja and Ian will also tell Ray that.

"Hmm."

And while Lugudos cares about Ray, he shouts his nose, showing that he doesn't force himself to care.

As a Lugudos with complex feelings about Ray, a lover and benefactor of life, I can't be honest here.

It's not that I'm not happy Ray's gone from before me, but at the same time, it means Lugudos is gone with the marina he fell in love with at first sight.

Those feelings mixed with gratitude and I didn't know what attitude to take towards Ray.

I don't suppose that's why I understood Lugudos' feelings... but Ray opens his mouth as he strokes Mules' head.

"Lugudos, if you're taking care of these guys, if anything happens to you like when you fight goblins, you're gonna protect them."

"Heh, heh! I know you don't have to tell me!

That's what Lugudos says. Off the line of sight from Ray.

Was it a coincidence that there was a marina at the end of the deviant gaze... did Lugudos do that intentionally again?

Either way, Ray says the same word again as he strokes Mules.

"You protect these people."

"... I know!

I don't even need Ray to tell me, Lugudos screaming.

Ray, who was watching Lugudos like that, feels his gaze and turns towards you.

There he is, Auduban.

We never had a good relationship, but Ray didn't care that much.

In the first place, because for Auduban, it took the form of interrupting it with a friend I haven't seen in about a hundred years.

I also fully understand Auduban that Marina is unconsciously attracted to Ray, and that was unnecessarily stirring Auduban's jealousy.

……

Ray gives a small nod back to Auduban, who keeps his head down silently... and then he says goodbye to each of the other dark elves for about twenty minutes, and finally it's time to leave.

Finally, Ray gently reaches out to the light sphere that is flying around him.

I know I can't touch the light bulb, but I still feel like reaching out.

This light sphere was created by Ray's magic. Speaking of, he is also equal to Ray's child.

... While there, the giant cicadas were created from parts such as the magic of Ray and the sap of the world tree, the roots, so you might say Ray and the child of the world tree in some ways.

(Yeah? I mean, I had a kid with a kid named Giant Cicada... let's not. It's not very, but it's not going to make me happy. It's going to be an idea)

Shake off the thought that came to mind and open your mouth towards the light sphere.

"I'm going home now, but I'm fine."

The moment I tell him so, the light sphere repeats its brightness violently.

I guess that's how you understand it when Ray is gone as it is.

I hope you don't go, repeat the brightness as you fly around Ray's perimeter as if you were saying so.

That appearance was very eye-catching to the back of the light sphere's thoughts, naturally even from the dark elves.

But it may have been an eye-catching sight to watch from the side, but it's not a hoard for Ray in its central part.

"Calm down... look, it's dazzling, so calm down"

Speaking up to the light sphere that was going around you, a few times. Finally, the light sphere stops that movement and moves forward in front of Ray's face.

"I can't be in this settlement forever either. You know that, don't you?

"As for you, I don't care how long you stay in this settlement at all. Anything as Marina's son-in-law..."

"O.J. Y. Sa Ma?

"Yabu!

Marina's fist enters Optis' torso with an unwanted mouthpiece.

I don't originally have that much power, but I still have Ray's magic in the marina today.

That had increased his physical abilities overall, and the marina's blow could easily silence Optis.

With such grandfather and grandson exchanges sidelined, Ray continues to persuade the light sphere.

"It's not like this is a lifelong breakup, is it? If I come here again, I'll see you."

To Ray's words, the photosphere blinks again.

Really? And Ray, who seemed to be saying so, nods back to the light sphere.

"Oh, so stay well until I get here. Then I'll play with you again."

When I told him that, I guess the light bulb finally gave up, too. Slowly brighten.

I suppose you thought you'd be all right now with that daze of concurring with Ray's words. Once again, Ray turns his gaze toward Optis.

He was an optis who was stuffed and suffering from an earlier blow to the marina, but now he was turning his gaze toward Ray as a tattered ego as usual to see if he had already managed that pain as well.

(No, in the case of Optis, do you say you're tattooed?... you won't tell me)

Past Ray's brain was for a short period of time staying in this settlement, but I still have the feeling that I wouldn't say I'm tarnished when I see what Optis has said and done.

Flies around the perimeter of such a ray, with the light bulb blinking.

The mood I was messing with in my earlier interaction with Ray seems to have changed, and now I was showing in my attitude that I wanted Ray to stay well.

"... Ray, it's time to go"

That was the marina that would have otherwise spared a few more goodbyes to the settlers.

I'm just going to be a little strong and tell you that I've decided I can't leave at all as I am.

It was usually a marina like it symbolizes the letter luster, but now it rarely creates just a little bit of a lonely atmosphere.

"Right, well... see you later"

It was against the light sphere, against Optis, and against the other dark elves who told him so.

All the Dark Elves bow their heads to such Ray's words.

Some of the children looked around like they didn't know what was going on, but those who still thought they were parents were causing the children to bow their heads.

"Lord Ray... this time we will save the settlement and there will be no words of gratitude. Our clan will never forget this grace. If there's anything we can do to help, I want you to ask me anytime. We don't have a gate to close Lord Ray in front of us."

An unusual use of Optis words.

That must be from the attitude of the elders of this settlement… as substantial heads.

I usually call him Lord Son-in-law or Ray, but now it's the way I call him Lord Ray was a sign of that.

Ray smiles and opens his mouth to those dark elves.

"Never mind, this is a request... no, you're not. I just did it because Marina asked me to. For me, if there's a request from the marina, this much is nothing. Plus... I'm getting paid."

That's what Ray told me, and the marina's cheeks turn thin and red.

Ray said it was a reward for pointing to branches of the world tree, leaves, sap, etc., but it was because it was a kiss with Ray that passed behind the marina's brain.

Seeing such a granddaughter, I guess Optis somehow understood what had happened. I smile like a favorable man and bow my head again.

... I didn't say it clearly, but now that I bowed my head, it wasn't about saving the world tree that I was willing to ask for my granddaughter forever.

Was Ray lucky or unlucky to fulfill it?

Either way, the Rays get into the carriage with Optis bowing their heads.

But only Ara went to your table.

And with the dark elves dropping off, the carriage eventually begins to move on.

Only the light sphere follows after the carriage and eventually a hole naturally opens up in the junction of the barrier as it travels near the junction of the barrier.

It is the light sphere that is the will of the world tree that is doing this.

With the world tree unfolding the junction of this barrier, it was naturally possible to make enough holes for the carriage to pass through the junction of the barrier.

"You didn't need me."

I guess the signs of the Spirit showed that there was a hole in the barrier's junction. Marina squeaks in the carriage.

On the couch where the marina is sitting, there is a look of Ray on the side.

Thinking about the last few days, neither Elaine nor Vihera was strange in trying to stop Marina from sitting next to Ray, but now... only now was it different.

Marina originally left the settlement for no reason like being evicted. Purely because I was interested in the outside world.

I mean, I could have come back whenever I wanted to... but it's also true that various fences were built while I was out working.

Then I couldn't come back inside, and this was the first time in about a hundred years that I had come back.

Dark Elves Living in Eternity… It's also a marina with darker blood than other dark elves and an edge with the world tree, but a hundred years is some time old.

So if you travel from the settlement again like this, you really feel like a homesick thing.

To bury the loneliness in her heart, Marina deposits her weight with Ray sitting next to her.

What Marina is wearing today is a party dress with a wide open chest and back.

If you imitate to keep your weight in such a way, naturally those huge double hills will take the form of being crushed by Ray's arms, and the deep valley will also be shaken again to emphasize softness.

"Hey, Ray. That was really helpful this time. … thank you, let me give you an experience like you've never tasted before?

The moment was almost that close to Elaine and Vihella speaking out unexpectedly to the blatant provocation of Marina, who was letting her fully demonstrate her luster as a woman.

(Now let us all make a scene and forget to bury this loneliness)

With that in mind, Marina continues her temptation to Ray with half certainty that she would forgive herself if Ray wanted to.

A short distance away, Bühne slowly savored the dried fruit he had received from the Dark Elves as a souvenir... and the cries of the two maidens in love, who had reached the limits of their patience, echoed into the carriage.
