Ray acted fast since he decided to go back to Gilm.
Most importantly, Kathy says she's throwing a farewell party, so there's no reason she should be home any time soon.
What Ray's gonna do now is get ready to go home tomorrow.
"... well, there's nothing in particular when I say prep"
I originally stayed in this mansion less than half a month ago.
There was no better way to pack than to be.
This is true of the evening wheat pavilion where Ray is staying, but in Ray's case there is a very handy magic item called Mystering.
That's why the luggage and tools that would normally be scattered around it are not placed anywhere in this room where Ray rents them either.
"Now, how do we kill time till night?... could I have been in the village a little longer?
It was a troubled Ray, but I suddenly decided to go back to the Guild after seeing what was going on in that village, so I feel like something's different about going now.
"I was a little interested in the artifacts that covered that village. It's broken, but if you take it back with you, someone might be happy to study it."
Ray, who originally thought he was to come to Gosh because of the dusk spear that someone had made... had nothing to do with it anyway, and decided to train the two-spear flow.
"Ha!
With such a cry, a dusk spear with his left hand pierces the air.
It's less powerful than a poke released with both hands, but that's only a story compared to a poke released with both hands by Ray.
Normal...... that's not a disgusting poke compared to the one released by the adventurer in Gosh...... no, it was a poke with more sharpness than that.
I still can't roll out the death size of my right hand with the poke, but I still have a response that if I keep practicing, I can handle it.
Looking up at the sky with such satisfaction, there is a sea sky.
It was exactly the sight I deserved to call a sunset.
"... Huh? Is that it?"
Looking around like a mess, Seto is sleeping on the ground a little further away.
By training two spear streams, I freed Seto, who had slept in the stables as before, and trained him with it...
"Evening, you say?
Unexpectedly whine.
Naturally. I don't know the exact time Ray originally made up his mind to go back to the Guild and come back to Augusto's mansion because he hasn't given out his pocket watch, but still around 10am.
Then I talked to the Augustos and started practicing two-spear flow that I had nothing to do when I came back to my room, when it hadn't been that long since I got back to Augusto's mansion.
And...... and when Ray takes a pocket watch out of Mystering and takes a look, the time the needle is showing is already close to 6pm.
Ray doesn't remember having lunch, and naturally he doesn't remember taking some kind of break.
I guess I was totally too focused on training the two-spear flow and forgot how much time went by.
And if I recall that it had been a few hours, I would naturally claim to be hungry and my throat would ask for water.
I have a farewell party at night, so I couldn't put up with my thirst, even though I decided I should stop eating something now.
Ray's body is arguably a substitute for the crystal of Zeppyre's magic technology, but hydration will be more essential than being a creature.
(No, actually, you don't have to drink water to do it or something?
Even if I think that way for a moment, I'm not going to confirm that until I put up with my thirst.
Besides, if it's a farewell party at night, we'll have something to drink.
Magic flows through the dagger of running water removed from the mysteries and takes the water coming out of it directly by mouth and drinks it up.
... If anyone had seen this sight, it would look like Ray was about to kill himself by swallowing a dagger.
Most importantly, this is close to the stables among Augusto's mansions, and sometimes only Augusto and Kathy originally lived in this mansion, and someone rarely comes.
Yes. It was rare, and there was absolutely no one there.
"Yikes! Ray, what are you doing!?
Not to mention, if that's Kathy, who came to get Ray when it was time to start the party, I know how she would react when she saw that she was about to put a dagger cut in her mouth.
"Cancer!? Ngugugu..."
Surprised by the sudden hung voice, he manages to swallow that water with patience, even though he is about to eject the water that was in his mouth for a moment.
"Ha, ha, ha... I thought I was going to die"
"... oh?
Seeing the water flowing from the cutting-edge of the dagger off my mouth, I guess I finally realized that Kathy too was a running water dagger.
I can only hold my mouth and smile bitterly at my actions that I have done.
"That, Ray. Was it okay? I don't know if I've heard from you in a tough place."
Ray waves gently to Kathy, who calls out in such a way as to be afraid, that she's okay.
In fact, if I cut my mouth with a dagger's cut, it wasn't that deep because it was obvious.
"No problem. 'Cause I was just a little thirsty and drinking water."
"Really? Good for you..."
While I was also relieved by Ray's words, at the next moment Kathy sees Ray with a blameworthy gaze somewhere.
... although it was a blaming, not a blaming gaze entirely.
Kathy has drunk water that was put out of a dagger of running water before.
At that time, even the sweet dew in the sky can't forget the taste that I don't think of as water.
So drinking running water dagger water as messy as it is now was not acceptable to Kathy.
Well, that's only Kathy's perception.
For Ray, any amount of water coming out of a running water dagger can be produced.
Therefore, I use the water coming out of the water supply around there… and the feeling that I was in Japan.
"Well, that magic item belongs to Ray, and I won't say I can't. So, we're ready for a party, so will you come?
"Oh, yeah, okay"
Kathy also decided that it would just be useless to say something about a running water dagger to Ray, all she had to do was sigh small.
... One way or the other, if you keep using your time here, the food might have gotten cold.
Also, I say goodbye to Ray tomorrow, so sometimes I don't want to argue in vain here.
"Gru......"
To such a ray, Seto roars his throat just a little lonely.
I envy Ray, who is going to the party, and I miss being left alone here at such a good time.
Even without words from Seto, such an atmosphere was unleashed.
"What do you seem to miss? This party is Ray and Seto's farewell party, so naturally Seto's in on it, right?
"Grrrrrrrr!?
True!? and Seto squeals happily.
Seeing such a ceto, Kathy grins and nods.
"Yeah, of course. Seto's a fine customer of our house, too, isn't he? I'm here with Ray, so I'm not going to leave Seto alone. Shall we go?"
Seto walks out happy to tell Kathy with a smile on her face.
... and Ray thanks Kathy for caring for Seto like that.
"Grrrrrrrr!"
A slightly advanced ceto looks at the immobile ray and rings his throat.
What's the matter with you? The way he was telling me to go fast even seemed like a kid who was happy with the fun happening.
… but given Seto's age since birth, it may not be impossible either.
With such a settling look, Kathy smiles and returns to the mansion with her.
Ray also follows Cassie like that again and heads inside the mansion.
I thought we were headed to the living room as usual, Ray, but it was the dining room that Cassie headed for.
Of course this is the size of a mansion, so some of them have a dining room.
However, Kathy and Augusto are the only two people living in this mansion, so I didn't bother to use the dining room.
"Is that it? That way, not the living room?
"Yeah. Seto's a little small in the living room, isn't he?
"... well, that's..."
Given the size of Ceto, it would be possible to enter the living room.
But the living room itself is not that big.
Beyond that, when it comes to having a corner farewell party, I can't enjoy it enough.
To avoid that, I suppose I have prepared it for the dining room so that I can fully enjoy it even if I have a ceto that exceeds two meters in length.
"Grrrrrrrr?"
What's wrong with Seto tilting his little neck when he doesn't realize that he's caused Kathy a lot of trouble? and coming round eyes to Ray and Kathy.
Ray tried to apologize to Kathy for how Seto looked like that... she looked at Kathy and said another word to Kathy, saying that what she was looking for was not an apology.
"Thanks"
"Pfft, it's okay. I've prepared a variety of dishes, so I need you both to taste them fully."
Because you count Nature and Seto as one, not one, but you cared about Ray... or because you recognize Nature and Seto as a family?
Either way, Ray strokes Seto's head as he walks down the hallway, grinning.
Kathy also smiled at how Ray looked like that... that's how she arrived at the dining room.
Even before I opened the door yet, Ray and... and Seto, sharper in smell than Ray, would smell a stirring appetite drifting from inside the dining room.
Ray was unnecessarily hungry, especially as he practiced two-spear flow without eating lunch.
I guess I could say I was lucky to just wipe the sweat lightly and not have the same sweaty smell in the sense that it wouldn't disturb the smell of the dish.
"Welcome to the party venue!
When the door opens with that word, the smell stirs a stronger appetite than it did a moment ago.
Gosh like, many dishes with more spices.
Not very much, but when it came to having a party today, it was so lavish that I didn't think it was a dish I made thinking about the menu.
Even if my normal life is qualitative, I spare no money for cooking.
Given Kathy's cooking skills, those dishes were definitely supposed to be excellent.
"Hey, you're here"
"Leave a party like this. What, are you sure you're leaving already? I think I could stay a little longer."
Waiting in the room were Augusto and Gunter.
Gunter didn't want to go out with a party like this, but if Augusto really asked me to join him, he couldn't have said no.
As for Augusto, I would have liked to have called Zalusto if I could, but there is nothing I can do because he is in the village of the Hundred Faced.
No, if Seto cares about it, that's what I can fly through the sky and bring him in a few minutes.
Augusto firmly understood over the years that he would not imitate Zaroust throwing out his job.
If it is Daridora or his escorts, they will probably come if you call them.
But working with Daridora is only a temporary thing for the hundred.
If this matter is cleared up, naturally Daridora will once again intensify her interference with Augusto.
With someone like that, you can't naturally enjoy the party.
Ray's leaving means we may never see each other again.
Of course if you really want to see him, you'll be able to meet him by going all the way to Gilm.
However, such imitation cannot be easy.
If it's Seto, it's not a hard story to come to Gosh, but given the human strength of Ray, it's also difficult.
(I guess that's why Kathy is trying to put up with wanting to cry too, laugh and break up)
Exhale in a small sigh and immediately change your mind.
Hand the cup on the table to Ray.
I hear you don't like alcohol, so it's tea in the cup.
Seto prepares soup instead of drinks, while Augusto, Kathy and Gunter take the alcohol.
And it was, naturally, the Lord Auguste of this mansion who opened his mouth on behalf of those on the spot.
Just a little... open your mouth with a glass in your hand, even though you seem to miss just a little bit.
"So hopefully Ray and Seto's new trip and the prosperity of everyone attending this party...... cheers!
Cheers!
Everyone lifts the cup with that word and hits it gently.
... When you drink tea, Ray reaches for the dish quickly.
Seto also tastes losing and cooking.
In the meantime, we talked about short but mutual memorabilia… Thus, Ray's last night at Gosh was fun, and then somewhere too sad.
