Legend

When he finished explaining the end of the Hundred Faces in Augusto's mansion, Ray was soon leaving Gosh again for the Hundred Faces' village.

Naturally, when I left the main gate, the guards looked disgusted, but I still can't refuse it any more than the Lord's orders are coming.

That's how Ray gets out of Gosh, rides Seto and flies through the desert sky at night.

The moon was pouring a gentle moonlight into the desert, just as it was when it came from the village of the hundred-sided to Gosh.

As far as the ground as flying, the term desert at night fits well with silence.

Of course I guess that's because I'm on a set flying up there.

If we actually descend into the desert, many organisms are moving in the desert, even in environments where it seems impossible for the creatures to live.

Not to mention the fact that the desert also has the appearance of a monster who endures its harsh environment, so there is nothing without creatures.

That hasn't been so long since I came to this Gosh, Ray, but I knew enough.

(There are quite a few monsters in the desert in the dungeon.... No, is that because it's in the dungeon?

Ray looks around as he strokes Seto's neck in front of him.

Then, only about a few minutes after flying out of Gosh, there was already on the earth the figure of a village of a hundred faces.

"You didn't get lost, apparently."

"Grrrrrrrr!"

To Ray's words, naturally! and a throat-beating ceto.

It's a village in an unhung place for two hours, even if you can walk around and match the time you were stopping and talking along the way.

For Ceto of Griffon, that degree of distance can travel in minutes of things, as it is now.

... Ray also realized that on his way from the village to Gosh.

I understood that Seto's flying speed is faster off the girder compared to traveling on the ground, but it's still very different from walking in the desert... I guess that's also compared to walking in the desert at night.

That's why even when Daridora asked me to come back to Gosh tomorrow morning, I took it on.

Of course, the resonance thing passed the back of my brain, which is one of the reasons I took on the favor.

(Sandy ships can only be used in the desert, and you should use them when you can. And I'm glad you didn't have to get lost at this distance... yeah)

For some reason, Ray and Seto often get lost.

That must be one of the major reasons why flying in the sky is too fast compared to walking on the ground.

With that in mind, Seto goes down to the ground.

"We have to do something about the junction, too. No, but can you do something about it? Essentially, we talked about not expanding the boundaries without being the size of a city class.

Just because we have secured a village with some oasis, it doesn't make sense if we can't protect it.

No, monsters and bandits - sand thieves around here - attacking and destroying the corner villages and what they are doing when they emigrate people there, they lose the amount of money they invest and, above all, people's lives.

In places like Gosh, the same goes for money, but most importantly because of the environment called desert, the population is small.

For this reason, we must attach some importance to human life.

Especially those who can farm with oasis, like living in villages, are also very rare technicians.

You'll never be able to imitate it as a miracle.

"Normally, it would be somewhat reassuring to build a fence or something... it's a desert here"

There are never many monsters traveling through the ground in the desert, starting with sandsnakes.

A village like you haven't dealt with anything in the basement of such a place is tantamount to telling a monster to have a treat.

When the Hundred Faces lived there, they were able to deal with it in artifact.

But... when Ray used Death Size to tear down that junction, he destroyed the artifact as well.

As for Ray, he didn't think it was his mistake because he couldn't find the village of the Hundred Faces as long as there was that connection.

Still, there is still inconvenience when using the village... if that is also a half-death inconvenience, there was no reason why I had no idea.

"That was fast enough! I thought it would take a little longer."

It was Zaroust who was wary of what was going on around him who approached Ray quickly and spoke so loudly as he descended into the village.

"Yeah? Is that just Zaroust? What about Narsus?"

"Oh, Narsus is on guard a little further away.... It's a small village, but it's impossible for the two of us to be on our guard. We still need to be as vigilant as we can, so we split up."

"If you think a powerful monster might strike, isn't that a little far-fetched?

"Sort of. But in the short time until Ray and Seto get back. That's about it, even if the monsters attack us, we can do something about it."

The Roost whines showing light confidence.

In fact, Zaroust was confident that he would survive no matter what.

… although it was certain that some damage would be done to the village as a result.

Speaking like that, you must have noticed that Ray and Seto had arrived. Narsus also shows up again.

"Apparently, you're safe."

I'm relieved to see Ray because it's no wonder what happens in a place called the desert at night, even if you know his strength.

Ray also opens his mouth without paying particular attention because he understands that Narsus didn't say that because he doubted his strength.

"It's a matter of both of us, shall we talk about it?... Oh, Seto. I need perimeter alert."

"Gru!"

Ray speaks to Seto before giving an explanation.

Seto then goes to the square in the centre of the village with a short throat.

You can't just see what's going on in the center of the village.

Instead, however, using the sense of smell and hearing, as well as the ability to detect signs and magic, we were able to be vigilant at places this size of a village without any problems.

Narsus, too, must have come under Ray because he knew it.

"In the meantime, the matter of the Hundred Faces and the matter of this village has been explained to Augusto and Daridora. I've contacted Lewbrand, and they're dropping in tomorrow to investigate the village and clean up the body."

I guess getting out of Ray's mouth was acting faster than I thought.

Both Zaroust and Narsus have a slightly surprising look.

But given the current situation in this village, it is true that we should move a little faster.

Especially when it comes to cleaning up corpses, if you take a bad time, you can also think of being undead... and most importantly, considering the desert noon temperature, you can rot and smell fast.

"That's why I'm staying over here today, too, but I need to go back to Gosh again tomorrow. We have to get him to this village."

Is it okay if I'm not here tomorrow morning? and to Ray, who turns his gaze and asks, Zaroust and Narsus naturally nod.

It would be tough if they told us to protect this village ourselves all day long, but if it was about a few hours, there would be absolutely nothing wrong with it.

Ray is relieved by the two of them speaking in such confident language.

"Well, anyway, I'll take care of the watch tonight, so you guys get some rest."

"Sorry, then please"

"I asked."

The two of them briefly go to a house nearby.

Luckily, every house is empty now.

I never had more trouble sleeping on the bed than I did.

... Instead, we had to find a place without a body, or we had to send the body ourselves.

After dropping them off, Ray heads to the square in the middle of the village.

In that place, illuminated by the moonlight, Seto had already slept down and set his guard around him.

"Sorry, am I late?

"Gru."

It's okay, Seto rattling his throat.

Fu, given my current interaction with Seto, I somehow reminisced about an exchange of lovers I had just started dating.

"... With that said, I haven't heard from you in the last few days, but I wonder how Elaine is doing"

I thought I'd use a pair of orbs for a moment to get in touch with Elaine, but the time is already midnight.

I took my pocket watch out of the mistering and checked it, and it's past 1: 00 in the morning.

Even if I contact you now, I decide that I'm just going to annoy Elaine and give up.

... If Elaine finds out what Ray cares about, she doesn't have to, so I guess she wants me to contact her anytime.

Sit next to Seto sleeping on the ground and keep your weight in Seto's warm body.

Ray never felt the heat or cold thanks to the dragon robe, but still when I deposited my weight in Ceto I could feel the warm body temperature.

Is it because it's a magic item around here?

Learn from Ceto as you go and explore the signs around you as you meditate your eyes.

If Seto is around, we'll soon see someone approaching us from around us.

If it was meant to be, Ray didn't have to imitate it like this, and that's what I could have done resting in some house, just like Zaroust and Narsus.

But...... nevertheless, it was the realization that I needed to be happening this way more than just being the strongest of these troops - the three of them and one of them.

I feel Seto's heartbeat coming through my body...... eventually my consciousness is about to fall asleep as it is.

Just one day today, a lot of things happened.

Augusto and Daridora are attacked all over the city, laboratories are raided, go see how it goes and fight the Hundred Faces… When it is done, Seto smells the smell and finds this village, the home of the Hundred Faces, destroying the connections that were strewn with artifacts.

And if the village shows up, it will be a battle with the resonances that have been waiting.

If I won and looked around the village, everyone was poisoned to death.

In order to let him know how it happened, Ray went back to Gosh to explain, and when it was over, he came back to this village and was watching like this.

(You obviously have too many events. I wish I could at least wake up a little slower in a few days)

I understand that I am thinking of things that are convenient for me, but still I have to think so when all this happens continuously over the course of the day.

I want to get some sleep like this.

It was Ray who thought that way as he felt Seto's body temperature and heartbeat, but soon erases the weakness in him.

(Not if it stays this way. I need to get some drowsiness...... no, if you say so)

Two, there's something I can think of, and Ray, who kept his weight, leaves.

I guess it was a shame Ray's warmth, which I love, was gone. Seto sounds a little meticulous.

"I'm sorry. But I have a little something to do."

Lower the hood you were wearing as you stroked the ceto.

Moments, the cold air of the desert night strokes Ray's face.

"Wow, that's really cold"

With that said, it's a grin on Ray's face.

Cold...... that was the air that was going to freeze, but just think of it as a drowsiness awakening.

The temperature is about 10 degrees Celsius, but Ray's body is a substitute created by Zeppyre and his technology.

Temperatures of this magnitude can be anything, although I feel cold.

In the first place, the only part of the face that's cold is the part with the hood down.

The body is wrapped in dragon robes, in comfortable temperatures such as not too hot and not too cold.

Where his face is somewhat cold, it would be Ray's honest feeling about what happened to him to that extent.

Still feeling cold, Ray looks around just in case.

"Seto, nobody's looking at us, right?

"Gru."

Seto nods at Ray's words.

The only people currently in this village are Zaroust and Narsus sleeping in some house.

There couldn't have been anyone watching how they were doing more than those two were asleep.

Still, just in case, I asked Seto because I had the feeling that maybe...

Ray, convinced in Seto's reply that it was not there, takes the object of interest out of the mistering.

In Ray's hands are two demonic stones. It's the demon stone of Sandrizzard Man.

When we tried to absorb it in Augusto's mansion before, we were just sure someone was watching over us and a substitute we stopped on the way.

Decided it would be just fine now...... throw one demon stone in the air and flash with the death-size removed as well.

"... no way"

After a while, I'm sure nothing will happen, and then I throw a demon stone at Seto... but I can't acquire any skills either.

With this result, Ray only messed with the corner.
