Following that path, what drifts is the smell of iron rust.

Ray knew so much about what it was that he hated it.

Never before... I guess it's only natural that I've been exposed to something that emits that smell so much that I think it will stain my body.

There was also the effect of a man with an earlier spear running away and Zaroust running after it, which allowed him to move straight even without avoiding people to that place.

I guess it also affected the fact that there were originally few people in the daytime.

Ray, who kept running, quickly arrives at the place where people are gathered.

"Huh!? Who!"

One of those who were gathered there cries out, noticing Ray approaching.

It was obvious that he was a person with a dagger in his hand but had never been properly trained considering where his hands were trembling and not even standing.

Still, the person in front of us is the one wearing the robe and the hood, so we try to protect our boss from the suspicious opponent... we finally realize what Seto is holding back behind Ray.

And if I could tell what Seto looked like, it was natural to realize that the man in the robe with that Seto was Ray.

"Les, Mr. Ray!?

"Oh.... what about Augusto?

"... this way"

The man who told him so tells those gathered around him to vacate the place.

What Ray saw when the place went in empty was the appearance of Augusto bleeding out of his belly.

It is obvious that he was poked with an earlier spear, and a blood build-up is formed on the ground.

(The blood on the tip of that spear... was it Ougust's after all)

With that in mind, I turn my gaze to the person handling Augusto's wounds.

There was a monkey beast man figure I had seen before.

"What do you say?

"Ah, Mr. Ray..."

Whimpering a word, the monkey beast man gently shakes his neck to the side.

"My gut..."

If what the man who attacked Augusto had was a long sword, maybe it would have been good.

But the weapon the man was using was a spear, and he poked Auguste in the belly.

If I was lucky, I might have slipped between my guts... but unfortunately I couldn't expect that luck only this time.

"Keep it up..."

The monkey beast man groans sadly, and those gathered around him also bring grief to his face.

"Ha... ha... su, sorry, Mr. Ray. I'm showing you a disgusting look..."

"... whoever tried to kill you is captured. You should ask what happened later."

"Pfft, zah, unfortunately I don't have time for that..."

"Shut up."

Ray blocking Augusto's words.

To block the last word of goodbye, some of those around him turn a sinister gaze, but Ray opens his mouth regardless.

"What about the potion?

One of the men who was close to the word shook his head to the side.

"Gosh's alchemy level isn't high. I don't sell potions that can just cure such serious injuries. Suppose you have..."

"The Eléma Chamber of Commerce, or"

The man nods at the words.

"And there's no way Daridora would give up the potion to heal Mr. Augusto's wounds. No, maybe..."

The man stopped the words halfway, I guess he wanted to say that the man who attacked Augusto was the hand of the Eléma Chamber of Commerce.

"Wait, calm down."

Ray, who stopped the man who tried to utter a decisive word, once again turns his gaze toward Auguste...... roughly takes a single potion out of Mystering.

It was obvious from the bottle containing the potion that the potion was of such high quality that it could not be purchased at Gosh.

Exquisite decorations and sculptures, even though they are bottles to add potions.

The potion that just makes it seem like a kind of work of art is what Ray got from Azimov.

Of course it was a potion for the right price, but it was a substitute for Ray's collection because it was a useful magic item in battle, and I kept it in mystering for a while...

(Well, I rarely get hurt)

Ray's combat ability is very high, and it also emphasizes dodging rather than enduring enemy attacks.

It also prevents death-size attacks and has a protective device called a dragon robe.

Of course that's not the only way to avoid all attacks, it was clear that Ray had been damaged before.

It was the potion I was going to use at that time, but now I decided it would be time to use it and open the lid of the potion...

(Yeah? What am I supposed to do if I hurt my gut? Hang it directly in your gut? No, in this case......)

Ray was unsure how to use it for a moment, but decided it would be time to let him drink it that the potion would work best, and take that potion to the mouth of the august lying on top of the blood buildup.

Augusto must have figured out what Ray was going to do. I tried to mouth it to stop because it was useless... but whatever such august, Ray forcefully sticks a bottle of potion into its mouth and pours the liquid inside.

Then naturally, the potion goes into Augusto's mouth, and Augusto, who couldn't breathe, tastes unusually bad in his mouth... swallows the liquid that seems to destroy his taste.

"Whoa, whoa!

He was an Augusto who was about to cough up, but Ray would be forced to block such Augusto's mouth with his hands and keep him from spitting out the potion.

(Did you get potion in weird and swallow it, or did it taste like it after all)

The potion is unsavory... that's also unsavory enough for a few days to leave a taste disorder is as true as the goblin meat is unsavory.

... but Ray is trying to do something about the goblin meat.

(Potion with Shizukuishi from the World Tree, you'll really need to make it)

I don't need potions that much if I'm the only one, but I still think I should have one or two potions that are powerful.

If it's a potion that can heal some scratches, it's a little expensive in the guilds, but it's never available.

However, it is not possible to say that there will be some scratches like this one that have been pierced through the gut, and there was no reason to recover lightly from the potion I am selling around it...

"Whoa, dude! Look at Mr. Ougust's wounds!

One of them, watching Ray's exchange, looks at Ougust and screams.

What was there was the sight that the wounds in the belly stabbed by the spear automatically healed during viewing.

I hope it's healing, but from the side, anything that can also be called playback due to its speed is even subtly disgusting.

Still, everyone didn't feel sick because Augusto is the one whose wounds are healing and Potion is the reason he's recovering... I guess that's also because I understand it's a high quality potion to see.

"Gu gu gu gu gu gu!"

If you are a recovering Augusto, you are roaring as if you would endure something.

Those around them are all silently turning their gaze to Augusto… Eventually, after a few minutes as it was, the roar that was inadvertently rising out of Augusto's mouth disappeared.

……

And the people around them breathed and watched... inadvertently getting their upper body up from the state where Augusto was falling.

It's not a trick of powerlessness either, it's like a force that doesn't make you feel the effects of an injury.

'Huh?'

I guess that's why. That voice came out of everyone's mouth.

Until a few minutes ago, I lived or died... not because the person I thought would surely die rose up so lightly.

"Uh... that?

And most of all, I could have said that the most confusing was Auguste himself.

Get up and look around, touching your own belly that was poked with a spear earlier.

There's nothing there that can already be called a scratch.

"I... was dying, I think..."

I guess I can't believe what happened to me. Turn your gaze again to the ground where you are sitting.

What's there is a blood buildup that should have flowed from your body.

It's never been my dream that I was dying more than there was that blood buildup.

It's a potion.

Ray calls out to a confusing august.

What I have in my hand is a bottle that had potions in it.

You remembered being forced to drink the potion while you were dying when you saw it, Ougust reflexively tongued... no, hold your mouth.

What is happening to my taste today...... I guess even the word taste of potion reminded me of the raw and warm flavor.

"Ah, ah, thank you..."

While still understanding that taste was ridiculous, I could put up with it and say thank you to Ray because I knew it was a very worthwhile potion that was used by me?

If it were Daridora with the Erema Chamber of Commerce, it would still be an amount that would be very, but untouchable, in Augusto, which is not far from the Erema Chamber of Commerce on the size of the store.

In fact, Ray got it from Azimov - thanks to Ceto's material to be exact - a potion, but it would be impossible to buy it in gold or silver coins when it comes to actually buying it, worth it.

"Never mind. If the landlord dies, don't get in trouble. Besides, you won't be able to eat good food."

I felt the focus was on the latter one way or another, but still Augusto bows his head to Ray again.

Those were the people around me who watched such augusts, but one of them squeaks unexpectedly.

"Nevertheless, everything is like this... imitating only Mr. Ougust directly..."

"Right. Who holds a grudge against Mr. Ougust?

"No, there's only one of you."

Only Augusto, whose name sells as a trader who deals honestly, is terribly limited when he becomes one who resents his character.

And there's a head resenting Augusto...

"Daridora."

I wonder who said that word.

That was not even known to Ray, but the moment Daridora's name came out, the gaze of those around him became harsher.

"Yeah, I don't even have to think about who got Mr. Auguste into this."

"Not at all. I hate Mr. Ougust the most right now because he's definitely Daridora."

"Damn, the size of the Eléma Chamber of Commerce makes me imitate whatever I want."

"I can't forgive you...... I'll never forgive you!

Each one of them around Auguste spins his words in remorse.

I have been obstructed by Daridora several times before.

But still, obstruction here these days has even taken Auguste's life rather than calling it obstruction.

Lend the sandboat to the sandburglars to target Augusto's merchant squad, and if that fails, this is how they come directly to kill Augusto.

Only admiring Augusto could those around them forgive Daridora.

It can run wild as it is and even punch into the Erema Chamber of Commerce.

With such fear, Ougust hurries to open his mouth.

"Wait, please! This case is from the Eléma Chamber of Commerce... not necessarily Daridora's work!

"But, Mr. Ougust..."

To Augusto's words, one of the men around him tries to say it back dissatisfied.

But Augusto opens his mouth to calm such a man down.

"Please calm down.... In the first place, I'm also not sure if this is really what Daridora did. There's no proof of anything."

"... can't this man prove it?

With that voice, the body of one man is thrown to the ground.

"Mr. Zaroust, this guy!

One of the men around him yells at Zaroust, who shows up.

Naturally. I'm losing consciousness now because I was the man who attacked Augusto earlier.

"I'm not the one who caught you, Ray."

A small, shouldered Zaroust tells as he looks at Ray.

The surrounding gaze gathers in Ray, but Ray just flaunted his shoulders small against it.

"Anyway, I can't give it to the guards to ask why the man attacked me."

It was Auguste who told him that.

Considering that all the sand thieves who attacked us were killed within the day we handed them over to the guards, there was no way to imitate them in a far-fetched way.

But I don't even think that's why I can get information out of a man I'm unconscious of.

What can I do... Ougust, who thought so, notices someone approaching him with a fuss about something.

Could it be another attack on yourself, just like the man in front of you? I thought so for a moment, but it was actually different.

"Hurry! Master Daridora has been attacked! Rescue immediately!

"Damn! Who would imitate that?

"You know what! We're in a hurry anyway!

Speaking that way, several men run away near the Augustos.

"... Daridora attacked?

It was through Augusto's mouth that such a grumpy voice leaked.
