To Augusto's words, Ray sums up his thoughts for a few minutes... eventually when he opens his eyes, he nods back.

"Okay. Then I'll give you a hand. I don't want to imitate my hand in this fight, but this one seems so unpleasant."

"... okay? Really?"

That's what I'm asking, Ougust. I guess I really didn't think Ray would help me.

We understood that we needed to explain the situation, but in the end we had to do it ourselves.

That's what I thought.

But behind the thought of Augusto, Ray said he could help himself.

It didn't help to say it was exactly an unwanted pleasure.

"What? You thought I'd just listen and not give you a hand?... Well, that could have happened in some cases, but only this time, don't worry"

"Thank you!

Next to the profoundly gracious Augusto, Zarousto, who was silently watching the story go on, also exhales a breath of relief.

If this makes Ray cut himself loose... then it's only natural that even the worst possibilities for Daridora were past the back of his brain.

Zaroust, in particular, knew that he would be the best of Augusto's people.

And at the same time, I knew I was only as powerful as the escorts Daridora hired.

Given the number of Daridora's escorts, we were definitely more at a disadvantage than ourselves.

But... now the difference in power has been reversed.

Zaroust probably understands best in this gosh how much power Ray has.

Of course I don't think I can beat Daridora in the sense of information, but it's huge that I've seen Ray's battle directly in that eye.

(Well, if you're Daridora's escort, it's not strange that I just met Ray and I understand that power.)

Smudge, Ray and... and exhale relief that Griffon's Seto, Ray's submissive demon, has become their own force.

"Well, now that you're on Augusto's side, it doesn't mean you're going to fight Daridora instantly from the front, does it?

Asking Ray, Augusto and Zarousto nod.

Nothing, Augusto doesn't hate Daridora either.

No, I sometimes think a lot about being sand thieved, but the matter ended up being taken by Ray for a very expensive magic item called a sand ship, which I guess was a handkerchief, and the sand thieves have also ended up doing themselves great damage to Daridora.

Also in today's raid, Augusto took his life due to Ray's potion, but Daridora has suffered tremendously, including himself.

There was no such thing as hatred for Daridora in Ougust right now because Ray told me about it again.

... If Kathy had been the most harmed, I'm pretty sure she would have been hateful though.

"Of course. In the first place, Daridora also has a relationship with Lord Lewbrand, so I didn't know she could fight and win..."

So Augusto, who stopped the words, turns his gaze to Ray when he fears.

Understanding the meaning of that gaze, Ray flaunts his shoulders small and opens his body mouth.

"I'll tell you what, what I'm good at is ranged offense. It's not like I don't like fighting as an individual, but it's overwhelmingly better that way as aptitude."

"In other words?"

"If we are serious about fighting, Gosh itself is likely to turn into ruins. If that's what you're fighting for, can I help you?

"No, I won't"

Augusto doesn't want to ruin Gosh either, so he immediately shook his head to the side to say no.

Ray gives a bitter smile and nods back at how Augusto looks like that.

Neither is Ray seriously thinking about turning Gosh into rubble, etc.

If Augusto had nodded in the current exchange, it would have been Ray who would be baffled.

"So, what do we do now? No matter how much Ougust says Tyra's tree is dangerous, Daridora won't listen, will she?

"Yes. They're hiring an eminent researcher to entrust the person with research on the Tyra tree, aren't they? Whatever happens, you'll have as much fighting power as you can deal with right away."

"Oh, that's what that escort meant too"

To Augusto's words, Ray mutters as he was convinced.

Even if we were to escort Daridora, there would be too many of them.

... Only the most nervous Daridora can work as an escort.

In fact, if you think of an event like the one where you felt that strength and advised Daridora when you first encountered Ray, it's never meaningless.

Most importantly, Daridora would definitely have lost her life if there had been no escorts in this raid.

"Then why don't you try your hand at Lewbrand? Doesn't Daridora want to imitate too much danger if she doesn't listen?

As a lord, I would never be allowed to imitate the kind of city I rule would be in danger.

It was Ray's suggestion that came out of that thought, but Ougust shook his neck sideways here as well.

"No, Master Lewbrand has a deep relationship with Daridora. Given the past, I understand that Lewbrand also has problems with Tyra trees.... and still won't get my hands on it because that's all I trust Daridora"

"So it's the Third Force?... Honestly, I'm pretty sure you should look for them, but you have no idea where they are. There's nothing like a clue. The only lead is... Any word from the guy who attacked Augusto?

The man who attacked Augusto, Ray stunned him, and brought him straight into Augusto's shop.

Sometimes that raider is the only clue that seems to be left at the moment, and turns his gaze to expectations... Zaroust exhales and shakes his neck sideways.

"From what I've heard, someone hired me. So, you took a pill that made you feel better at that time, and then you took it and then you raided Mr. Augusto? I don't know anything about that."

"After being hired, were you being manipulated?

"Oh, it will.... Honestly, there's nothing you can do about it when you're so thoroughly hidden."

Where Zaroust groans, the door to the room is knocked.

"Ougust, I brought you some tea, could you give me a minute now"

The door opens and Kathy shows her face.

There's a cup of tea in Cassie's hand for as many people as she says, and then there's no way Augusto can get in the way of caring for his beloved wife.

"Oh, of course I'm fine. Nice of you to come. If you can see Cassie's face, the fatigue in her body seems to blow away."

You can do it instantly, sweet air.

In that air, Ray and Zaroust look at each other with an unpleasant look on their face.

Zaroust felt a strong benevolence toward Augusto's father, and a strong friendship toward Augusto.

But...... still, I definitely don't think I want to be in the space where Auguste and Kathy are.

That was the same with Ray.

I'm sleeping in Augusto's mansion, but more than that, I'll be able to show off those two from time to time.

I don't want to see such an exchange if I can, but I still had to hang out more than I'm staying at this mansion.

That's why Ray opens his mouth with the desire to just stop getting into such an atmosphere where it's not necessary.

"I was just thirsty. It helps me bring tea.... Well, it's not the kind of tea I usually drink"

When Cassie, who returned to me with such words of Ray, finally stops interacting with Augusto, she gives him cups of tea to Zaroust and Ray.

As Ray put it, what was in that cup was close to milk tea in Ray's perception.... milk tea with some spices.

A mixture of sweet aromas and complex aromas of spices creates a unique aroma.

The intense flavors of milk, spices, sweetness and other complex flavors make the tongue enjoyable when included in the mouth.

The spices used in this milk tea are also formulated by Kathy herself.

That's why this mansion is the only place in Gosh where you can enjoy this milk tea.... Or invite Kathy to a tea party or something.

"I just want to be with Augusto a little more like this, but it's time to go.... don't pack too many roots"

"Oh, of course I do. Because with Kathy's brewed tea, you'll feel refreshed and tired!

He was an august with such laughs as cheerfulness, but still Cathy's worries don't go away.

Drinking potions made Augusto an equal situation to the destruction of his taste right now, but he doesn't give a look like that for his beloved wife.

(Well, if you think you were about to get stabbed in the stomach and killed today, maybe that's natural)

I know he wanted to hide it from Kathy, but by the time Ray gathered information about Daridora and went to Augusto's, Kathy's appearance was already in the store.

Ray will not be surprised to see the two hot guys in front of him, even if they say he felt Augusto's danger with things like a sixth sense or a woman's account.

Still, does Kathy know that the current consultation is important to Augusto, shorter than usual - and still a few minutes - when she confirms her love with Augusto, she leaves the room intact?

"Well, that's the third force."

Ray groans with a slight shudder at Augusto, whose face and atmosphere changed in an instant.

"You're switching fast."

"Naturally. That's why this is so important."

"No, that's not the problem.... Ha, well, fine. So as for the third force, do you really not have the kind of force you remember?

Ray asks, who decides it's useless to say anything more.

What is this guy saying about Ray like that? It was an august I saw with my eyes, such as that, but Zaroust coughed me back small and opened his mouth with a few thoughts.

"Hmmm...... as I said earlier, you really don't remember, do you? Daridora has all sorts of forceful imitations, so many people will hate it though. Does Mr. Zaroust have any idea?

"... No, unfortunately you don't. If it was positive that attacked Mr. Ougust in the first place, I figured Daridora was more destined, and I thought this one felt like it could fail or succeed."

"Or... if we both survive this raid, we're trying to overheat the dispute by making each other suspicious, or something?

It was Ray's opinion I put out in my mouth like I thought, but I immediately shake my own head to the side and dismiss that opinion.

"You're not. If so, there is absolutely no need for a successful raid by Augusto. If we don't fail, we will have an extra difference in force even though we originally have a difference in our fighting power."

"I guess so.... As far as I'm concerned, it was fatal that Mr. Ougust was attacked by a guy like that for a number of reasons."

"That's it. You could have disarmed that much of your enemy before you could have gotten your hands on Augusto, right? And yet, why did you let him bother attacking?

To Ray's doubts, Zaroust sighs carelessly.

"It's only an excuse, but it's a lot of people. He approached the crowd confused.... Besides, the blow of the punch I unleashed was quite powerful"

"Yeah? Was the blow quite powerful?... when you fought me, you didn't see anything like that? That's so much like amateurs around here."

"... what?

To Ray's words, Zaroust speaks of doubt.

You must have understood that there was something wrong with the information we had. The two rushed to start exchanging information.

And the more information we exchange, the stronger our doubts become.

Zaroust looked at the blow unleashed on Augusto with his eyes and said that the spear's power, speed and sharpness were things like whether he could manage to prevent it himself, while the man Ray saw wasn't even an amateur around...... but as an adventurer he didn't seem to be a very high ranking figure.

"... Zalust, is it possible that you were mistaken for someone else? That's when you had some time before you attacked Augusto and escaped, and then you got caught by me, right? You know, switched with someone who looks like you."

"No, that's... I don't know. I don't get it. There was blood on the tip of the spear, but that's fine if you give me the spear."

The exchange of information further increased the mystery… while questioning each other, the three of us discussed the mystery of the man with Auguste.
