Legend

"Oh, I've been waiting for you. How was it with you? We've successfully closed the deal."

When he arrives at the rendezvous point, Augusto waves with a happy grin.

Seeing how that went, it was clear that the deal went well.

"Yes, this one is safe and sound. There was a lot of commotion."

Zaroust gives a complex look to Ray, who is nearby with Seto.

I knew Ray was a strong adventurer, but having an alias issued by the receptionist in the guild was an even more drained form.

It wasn't just Zaroust, it was Gorkus tangled up in Ray... and so were the other adventurers who were listening to Ray and the receptionist around.

Not very much, but I can't look at Ray's appearance and believe he has an alias. But I would never expect a receptionist to... imitate that an official of the guild who shares information with each other would mistakenly look at the other.

Above all, the others didn't know, but the guild staff couldn't be wrong because they had heard about Ray from the marina.

Ray's failure to make corrections, even if he also spoke of the alias Deep Red, adds credibility to the fact that he has an alias… In the end, there will be no more gaze of insult in the gaze directed at Ray.

Especially bad would have been the Gorkus tangled in Ray first.

Gorkus found out that the person he was involved with had an alias, because Ray and I were out of sight after the conversation with the receptionist.

Eventually, the guild turned into strange air, and those who escorted it, including Zaroost, quickly completed the request termination process and were just to leave the guild.

Some of them tried to have a drink at the tavern, but they couldn't possibly imitate that in the current state of the Alliance.

In the end we all went out of the guild, and every one but Zaroust scattered all over the city.

"Disturbance, is it?... Well, I can understand somehow."

The grinning Augusto gaze naturally turns to Ray.

"I'm taking the griffon ceto, so it's weirder not to make a scene."

"... no, that's what it is, but there were other disturbances."

"Other than that?

"Yes.... turns out Ray was actually an adventurer with an alias"

"Whew!? No, I understood that Mr. Ray is strong... is that right, does he have an alias? That's wonderful."

Ougust looking and whining at Ray as he was impressed.

I guess the only reason they react differently to the adventurers who were in the guild is because they camped together, even if it was just for one night, and they know a lot about a person named Ray.

It is also significant that I was able to get to know Ray, who has an alias.

An adventurer with an alias is special in many ways.

That is not only as an adventurer, but also as a merchant asking for a request.

I could say this was unexpected luck for Augusto.

(I have such a hell of a magic item, and on top of that, I'm subjugating Griffon. If you think about it, maybe having an alias isn't weird at all)

Once again, Ougust, who turned his gaze toward Ray and Seto, smiles and opens his mouth.

"Well, should we get to the house? I'm running a preaching order first, so my wife's cooking good food by now. How about Mr. Zaroust? They're always escorting me, so sometimes we can eat together."

"No, I just want to do the same, because I told Ray I was going to do a sandserpent strip. We need to be ready underneath."

To the words of Zaroust, Augusto is convinced.

The sand salpent is about five meters long. The head disappeared to about four meters, but if it were to be a peel from a monster that size, it wouldn't be a bit...

Besides, this is a desert, and I couldn't even imitate working near the river around it like Ray was doing in the Guild.

I guess Zaroust says we'll do that because the equipment around there can't be used unless we apply properly.

(Well, it's easier this way if you're gonna do it, and you're welcome)

As for Ray, I have no complaints if he replaces such a cumbersome procedure.

Worst of all, I didn't have to peel it off here. I also had the means to peel it off after I got back to the guild.

"Really, that's a shame.... So, Mr. Ray, that and Seto, too. Shall we go? I'm sure you'll be delighted."

He was just a little bit of an unfortunate august when Zaroust told him he couldn't come to dinner on errands, but still quickly switches his mind and speaks to Ray and Seto.

Ray has no objection to that either, and nods back immediately.

"Okay, Mr. Zaroust. Thank you for this escort. Also, thank you if anything happens"

"Oh, be careful, Mr. Ougust.... Well, if you have Ray and Seto at home, I think he'll just regret trying to imitate something far-fetched."

Tell the second half of the word toward Ray.

If anyone thinks about sneaking into a house where an adventurer with an alias and a griffon are staying, they can undoubtedly say brave.

(Brave men are brave, but brave)

Still, when the brave are the brave, Zaroust sarcastically greets Ray and Auguste and leaves.

"... Come on, shall we go then? My wife's cooking is excellent."

"Oh. I've heard it many times, and I'm counting on it"

Augusto's wife prides herself on hearing it over and over in this short time.

It was obvious without thinking that he was a so-called loving wife.

Having smiled and heard Ray's words, Ougust leads them straight through.

Gosh is a city that enters the fairly flourishing of the Solrain nation, but still incomparable with Gilm.

It also probably affects the fact that it focuses on oasis.

"No way, I didn't think Mr. Ray was an adventurer with an alias"

"Really?... Well, I guess so"

Ray also knows what his appearance looks like.

Anyway, if you can see yourself like that and tell you're a strong man, if you're normal, it's not very, but it doesn't seem that way.

"I'm using Seto as my obedience, so you thought he was famous, didn't you?

Augusto's gaze is directed around him.

Most residents were surprised to see Seto… Griffon, and some of them were even frightened.

Still, what hasn't been a big fuss is that Seto is wearing an obedient devil's necklace, and most importantly, that Augusto is with Ray and Seto.

Ougust being eyed by the Eléma Chamber of Commerce, but not all Gosh residents hate it.

Ning Ro, you can say that you are liked to go with that honest personality.... but we can't get along openly in front of Erema Chamber of Commerce officials.

(The same goes for the absorption of the demonic stones in Sandsapent, and you want to keep the sandship in full motion once and for all. Not that a guy like Daridora would want it back.)

Essentially, the bandit's possessions are owned by those who crusade. But if the owner wanted it back, we needed to negotiate. … but if you can fold it at that price.

The problem in this case would still be the price of a sandy ship.

Ray didn't even know exactly how long it would take, but he could still expect not to buy it in gold or white gold.

(or something, but you wouldn't actually be able to buy it with gold coins, would you?... No, he said it was like a fair expense to the Eléma Chamber of Commerce, and isn't it)

Ray was worried about the Eléma Chamber of Commerce's nostalgia, but then he continues to be proud of Auguste's wife and gets tired of it.

I don't know how long it takes to get to Augusto's house, and even in the sense that it's not funny if it stays this way, I stroke Seto's head walking next door and say something I was a little concerned about.

"I just want to ask you, is it only on the sand that I can travel to get on the sand?

Asked Augusto that. It was behind Ray's brain in places other than the desert, such as meadows, rivers and seas near Gilm.

Basically, Ray travels on a set when he travels outside the city.

Because the speed at which Seto flies is overwhelming and most monsters do not come close to the wind.

But... things don't always have advantages.

One of the drawbacks of flying in the sky on Ceto is that it cannot be put on anything other than Ray.

It is possible to give it a ride if it is about a small child to be exact, but it will also be difficult if it gets a little older.

You'll be perfectly fine as an adult. Traveling in large numbers was another dream of a dream.

But if sand boarding could be used anywhere, it would be different.

With that in mind Ray asked Ougust... what came back was the act of shaking his head sideways.

"A sandship is a magic item made for the purpose of moving over the sand, as its name suggests. I'm not an alchemist either, so I don't know the exact theory, but they can't travel unless they're on sand anyway."

"... as the name Sandy Ship suggests,"

"Yes. Unfortunately,"

I expected it from that name, but still feel sorry for Ray when he tells me it's just on the sand.

"What about up in the sand... can't those in the Rock Desert do it either?

"Right. It's just on the sand. Of course, as far as I know, there may actually be something else that can be moved... except that the sandy ship Ray got was built in Ozos, said to be a magical city."

"... you know that well. I didn't know when I saw the sand boarding."

To Ray, who speaks doubts, Augusto flaunts his shoulders and opens his teat.

"I used to be proud of myself when I met Daridora. That's the only time I got an Ozos sand boat, and that's the first time I actually saw it yesterday."

"The magical city of Ozos, huh? I've heard your name several times before, but you've never been there directly."

"Really? We talked about having a hobby for collecting magic items, and I thought you'd been there before..."

"Unfortunately, I haven't had a chance and I've never been there. I'm hoping to go sometime."

I've heard the name of Ozos many times before, but I've never been there.

That was weird for Ray, too.

Originally, Ray has a hobby of collecting magic items. Naturally, in the sense of magic, you can call it state of the art. It's not strange that you want to go to Ozos.... No, I can even say it was natural.

Yet for some reason Ray has no desire to go to Ozos.

(Why?... Well, okay. One of these days you'll want to go if you get the chance)

It's like an unusual thought, but Ray himself didn't seem to notice it at all, and he concluded so.

"Really? Well, I've never been there just to ask about Ozos either. I'm hoping to go sometime."

Ray snorts back at Augusto, who smiles and tells him, as he does.

"So... what were you talking about? Oh, yeah, yeah. Sand aboard. After all, when you can only travel in the desert of sand, it's pretty user-friendly."

"Right. But that must have been enough for the Erema Chamber of Commerce. It must have originally been called glory, and even if you use it for it, this place is gosh. It's a city built on oasis in the desert, so it's perfectly fine to use sand aboard."

"Well, I guess you don't have to worry about that area for what you live here...... for me, it's a fact that it's not very user-friendly"

Should I sell it in a gosh with a lot of people wanting it?

I thought so too, Ray, but if I sold it to a detoured person, I was certain they would turn their hands from there to the Erema Chamber of Commerce.

(So, if you want to sell it, you should sell it in another city? Even if the Eléma Chamber of Commerce has a strong influence, Gosh will be the only one. Fortunately, the Sorlein nation is talking about deserts accounting for the bulk of it.)

It was a magic item gained at the corner, but Ray is not going to let the sand board die in the mistering if he is not willing to move to Gosh.

Magic items are not adorned and loved like works of art, because they actually think it makes sense to use them.

Of course, there are magic items in the world that are made for viewing.

Like a moving painting or something like a doll like a pet robot.

If it is such a magic item, I can be convinced whether it is an object to be appreciated or a ray.

Walking thinking that way, Augusto accidentally opens his mouth.

"Ah, there it is, Mr. Ray. My dear wife Kathy is waiting for me. The love nest is!

"... no, a love nest..."

Could the choice of staying at Augusto's house have been a mistake?

Ray worries briefly about the term Nest of Love.

What a mind-blowing sight Seto was throating to encourage such a ray.
