Legend

Ray and Vihera, and Seto headed, were quite upscale shops among the guilds.

Most importantly, neither Ray nor Vihera have any problems with gold, so this kind of luxury store allows them to enter without any particular problems.

Ray, in particular, had wiped out several bandits on his way back from Gosh as well, and the treasure gained there had been considerable.

Vihera is also confident in her abilities, so you can take a monster crusade request if you intend to make money.

In fact, since he came back to Gilm and was told that Ray had made his way to a desert country by himself, the Solrain Country, he had taken on the crusade request as he did every day, including the depression.

"Hmm. Fighting sandserpent sounds a little funny. I've fought similar monsters a few times."

Vihera answers briefly when Ray asks her about the fight against Sandserpent - only the throwing of a spear at dusk.

For Vihera, who specializes in fighting, a person with a large body is a very difficult opponent to fight, I would normally think.

In fact, it's true that using weapons like long swords and spears, not fights, has to do with the size of the opponent and the intermission.

And fights really make you less aggressive in relation to using your own hands and feet to attack.

… In the case of Vihela, we can also use the armor and toenails of magic items to produce sharp nails and blades there.

Sometimes, however, the weapons produced by it are also used in combat, which is not as long as it takes.

In other words, the target's skin and meat are generally impossible to do any more damage, even if they are slashed and torn.

Still, Vihella says the fight against Sandserpent sounds interesting because there's a math to win.

Impact the opponent's body directly with magic...... Vihera's skills, immersion palm.

With this skill, it makes little sense to have hard armor, supple skin, or thick muscles.

As long as you are a confident opponent in your defense, the blow of Vihella will be a deadly blow.

"Vihera might enjoy it.... I was a dusk spear blow."

"Are you listening to me? You made a lot of noise around that spear, didn't you? So, you think Ray ended up being temporarily evacuated?... When I got here, I gave you a nice treat."

What was the punishment for the smiling Vihera... and reaching for the dishes on the plate, thinking of the good luck of the merchants who were gone.

The food I bought at Gosh's stall and the food Kathy made for me was certainly delicious.

But it's still this guild that Ray spent the longest time in this world, and so when he eats the guild's food, he feels at ease like he's back home.

"So, what's Ray going to do now?

"... now? No, it's nothing. I'm not thinking about it."

If Ray were asked if he wanted to go somewhere and do something, he would get a little lost and shake his neck sideways.

For a while, he said he would focus on collecting demonic stones of unknown monsters around the Guild.

Gilms on the border naturally have many monsters Ray has never fought yet.

That's enough to say that fewer monsters fought.

Monsters in the desert are also unattractive, but I want to defeat monsters closer to me than monsters in other parts of the world.

That's not a funny story for Ray to think of.

(All in all, in the Devil's Forest...)

At the end of Ray's gaze thinking so, I notice that for some reason Vihella looks grumpy.

No, you're right about being obstinate rather than grumpy.

"What's going on?

"... nothing. It just seemed like Ray was thinking about something else even though he was with me"

"I don't care what else you say. That's what you've been asking me what I'm going to do, isn't it?

"I know. … Still, feel the woman's heart a little bit."

Ray tilts his neck.

Of course being in front of Ray is the right opponent to call her superb beauty.

Feminine to such a person? I knew it was generally strange to think that

But if the person is Vihera... that's Ray's honest feeling that he'll be more forthcoming when he tells us if we don't fight.

Did Vihera understand that she was thinking weird things about herself in a woman's eyes, or she pointed a slightly fixed gaze at Ray?

Vihera also fully understands that she is not a normal woman.

Still, it was only natural that I wanted to be seen as a woman once in a while by someone I liked as a maiden in love.

"This dish is delicious"

The topic is abruptly missed.

I guess that's how Ray realized it would be dangerous to talk about things like this.

It was Vihera who tried to say something to Ray's appearance for a moment like that, but whatever she said, she probably decided it didn't make sense now. Reach for cooking without saying anything more.

That's how we dine, Ray and Vihera move on to the chat.

If you go in any further, it's against you, because you understood that, Ray didn't make it any deeper into the subject of things like femininity, and you think it's pathetic for Vihera to blame Ray any more, get on with Ray's words.

"Right. It's a little too bad you can't eat the dishes of the Bestian Empire."

"Don't say you can't. If this is anywhere near the Bestian Empire, it's a far away, normal neighborhood, right?

"... a normal periphery is a word with many questions."

"I won't deny that. It's just a fact that we're away from the Bestian Empire. More than that, you can't eat the dishes of the Bestian Empire in the Guild."

"I know you do."

Keep eating while we have that conversation.

When I first came into this store, it was Vihera, who had exuded anger, but I'm not nervous about whether Ray and I have been largely calmed down by continuing to eat like this, nor the clerk who brings the food to the room at first.

"Here you go, it will be a stewed bicorn and kelpy dish"

Two simmering dishes are placed on the table, arguably the main part of this dish.

A bicone is two horns compared to a unicone with only one horn in a subspecies of unicorn.

The personality is also basically very vicious compared to a dear unicorn, and when you look at people, they attack you.

Kelpy is a horse-shaped monster who lives underwater and specializes in the magic of water attributes.

Both are known as horse-shaped, rather powerful monsters, and serving such monster meat in a way that they can be compared to each other would be possible because this store is a luxury store.

"Both meats are delicious with a soft but firm bite. … I just wonder if Kelpy is softer."

"Right. Bicorn is a monster who lives on the ground, and Kelpy is a monster who lives in the water. Doesn't this difference in flesh come from around here?

Ray and Vihera share their thoughts as they each eat two kinds of meat.

(Horsemeat...? A little nostalgic)

The horse meat dish that my mother sometimes cooked for me when I was in Japan passed Ray's brain.

A dish simmered with horse meat, onions, yarn konjac and slices of shoga as a deodorant.

I liked to put that stew on top of the freshly cooked rice and eat it as a horse bowl without a beef bowl.

(In this world, there seems to be a similar dish or something)

Thinking that way, I finished the dish...... and finally, as a dessert, a cold, chilled fruit was served.

This type of magic item is never cheap, but is it because it is a luxury store that I use it?

A refreshing sour fruit as if temporarily forgetting the summer heat...... I felt stronger and sweeter because it was cold.

After finishing the whole meal that way, Vihera must have settled down somewhat, too. My anger has completely subsided.

When I finished my bill and went outside the store, Seto was waiting there.

The mood is probably because Ray and Vihella were eating dishes served out of the store while they were eating.

He was feeding Seto in front of the store, not like the stables, because Seto... and he wanted to tell the people around him that Ray was using their shop.

The sight of Seto eating deliciously is unknown to the rest of the city, and in Gilm everyone sees how Seto is and makes them feel at ease.

It was also a great publicity for the store… it definitely had a very high customer attraction effect.

"Grrrrrrrrrr!"

Just finished steaming the river fish dish, Seto rattles his throat toward Ray and Vihera with only a little fish skin on the couch.

Vihera, who was still a little angry though she had put up her anger at such a sett, is powerless and softly takes the skin of the fish that was on the couch.

"Ray has Seto, Elaine has a yellow, right? I'm a little jealous."

It was Vihera who preferred combat the most, but it doesn't mean she's not interested in anything else at all.

I envy only a little bit of obedience and user demons, especially those like Seto and Yellow, who are loving and cute and show high abilities in battle.

I don't know if I have such a presence... but unfortunately, there is no Tamer talent in Vihera, nor any magical ability to just create a demon to use.

Of course I couldn't if I tried to do something about it.

For example, I have heard that although it is a rare Tamer, some of them are selling Tamed Monsters.

But... Still.

Vihera strokes Seto, shaking her neck sideways inside.

It's hard to act together unless you're not just adorable, but useful in a proper fight.

"Um, right. It's hard to get an obedient demon or a user-demon... and if it's possible, there's a dragon knight-style way to grow your own eggs and fresh-born monsters."

"I guess that's the only way. But when you're an adventurer, it's pretty hard to take care of eggs and babies."

"I guess..."

Even though, Vihera in front of me has the sexuality of preferring to fight.

It would be difficult to hatch eggs in that condition or take care of a newborn monster baby.

"Is there anything like that with magic items or something? Wouldn't Ray the Wizard know that?

To Vihera, who asks while scratching Seto's neck, which throats in an upbeat mood, Ray remembers a book he had previously seen in the city's library.

"Right, right. It's not like a creature... I don't think you need to grow it if you're a magically created creature like a golem or a gargoyle."

"Gargoyle on the golem, right?... I don't know if it's a good idea, but maybe a little pin."

What's floating behind Vihella's brain is the look of herself flying in the sky caught on Gargoyle's feet, or on Golem's shoulder?

Whatever she looked like, there was no way that Vihera would not look better than being an unparalleled beauty herself.

"Well, when it comes to using magic to produce it, it's not like I can use it. That's why you need help from an alchemist or something."

Past Ray's brain were two people who made the spear of dusk.

I just made a spear of dusk and asked him to make golems and gargoyles again also felt like a lot of danger.

Danger, of course, means that the health of the two people who stuffed their roots and made the spear of dusk is in danger.

With that in mind, Fujiray opens his mouth a little jokingly.

"In the case of Vihera, you have Bühne, right? As a bandit, you have enough skill, so you won't get caught up in it."

That was obvious given the experience in the battle that took place in the marina's hometown forest.

It is true that Bühne does not have a thousand battle skills that can be called 10,000 injustices, but he still has the ability not to interrupt the Battle of Vihela and just defend himself.

It's not exactly about protecting yourself, it's about hiding and making sure they don't find you.

Besides, it definitely means it's cute because it's still small.

In that sense, isn't Bühne good enough that it is no longer the subject that Vihella is looking for?

It wouldn't be weird to think that way.

"You know... Beaune wouldn't be anything but an obedient or a user demon"

At the end of Vihera's gaze, which tells her like she is frightened... there is a single adventurer changing his blood phase and running to the Alliance.

"Anything wrong?

"... you don't have to be bored with Ray as always"

When we looked at each other, the two of us started walking toward the Alliance.
