Legend

The day after completing the crusade of the three flocks led by the Lizardman leader, Ray, who finished his meal, was walking all over the city with Vihera and Seto as before.

When I find a stall that smells delicious again as usual, I will buy myself and Seto's share and eat it.

"Are you sure? I'd be more than that."

Ray's gaze was directed at Vihera.

I bought a few skewers at the stall that sold the Kobolt skewers, but for some reason Vihera didn't order them.

Ray questioned that, but it was a frightened gaze directed at him from Vihella.

"You know, I enjoy buying and eating with the Rays, but I'm a woman too. Needless to say, what happens if you do something that eats more than it moves, right? Not to mention this kind of outfit."

Vihera's outfit, which tells him so, was as thin as usual so that the other side could see through, boasting her shape until she was stunning.

You don't have to look at the beauty that can also be called Vihella's aggressive, the shape that everyone wants to hold and even women will admire if they are men.

She is as supple as a carnivore, but also boasts of femininity as no more.

"... no, I don't think you need to worry about that much. See?"

"Hot! Huh? Oh, oh. Yeah. Of course I think so."

A stall owner is gazed at by Vihera's body as she bakes a skewer, shouting surprise and anguish at the jumped spark.

But only the stall owner selling skewers agreed with Ray as if he had quickly forgotten the pain.

He was still young and not naturally withered by only a man in his twenties.

So if this is how the adjective of extinction like Vihera comes to look up at the limb of a beautiful woman who deserves it, naturally, it deprives her of consciousness.

Was it good luck or bad luck that the result was only minor burns?

"Mm, Cohon. And I'm glad Ray and Seto are here. Even though it's only a few days since the monster herd started rumbling, there's a lot going on."

That's what the shopkeeper's man tells you, to delude you that he was in love with Vihera's limbs.

At the end of the store owner's gaze are several merchants and their escorts.

He looks grumpy to see, and he argues with each other.

The merchants are telling the escort adventurers that they want to leave the guild immediately, but the escort adventurers oppose it.

If you try to be merchants, you want to get out of a guild where a bunch of monsters are occurring at the same time, but if you try to be an escort adventurer, it's hard to protect the merchants from being attacked by the bunch.

Nor did we want to imitate that even with escorts, we would move on from ourselves to places where there was a good chance of death.

Merchant position and escort position.

Discussions taking place between each...... No, that voice, close to Ningro's contention, is echoing around as well.

"So you're telling me! Leaving the Guild under the circumstances, I don't think I can protect you all, not very much!

"Even if they say so, this one's coming to Gilm in business, right? As it is, expenses will be multiplied in vain and you will end up in a deficit. Besides, we don't have a bunch of monsters that powerful yet, do we? Then..."

"Please don't be impotent! It's another question of how many goblins and cobolts your opponents can deal with it if you have a large number!

"But this one isn't coming to the guild to play either. If you don't deliver this package by the due date of the contract, you'll be paying compensation!

"Which is more important, life or money?

"It's up to both of us!

"... If you really, really want to get out of the gilm, there's only one suggestion I can make here. It's not about carriages, it's about riding horses and continuing to run at full speed. That way, you won't have to be attacked by monsters while you're running."

That means the monster will attack you if the horse isn't running.

And horses can't keep running forever.

You need to take a break if you run somewhat, and then naturally you're more likely to be attacked by monsters.

If, of course, the horse alone is progressing, it would be less likely to be found by the monster than to travel by carriage.

But if a monster finds you in that state, it won't help, it'll just kill you and eat you.

Merchants also only come to the Gilm on the border, and I guess they understand the area. I can't snort when I go by horses alone.

Most importantly, the horse alone would leave the carriage and the luggage in it in the guild.

Some of the merchants have the means to stay in the guild, but that brings up another problem.

"It's the only way to get around it, isn't it?

"Please don't be impotent. Because there are things you can and cannot do."

There are many other voices that interact like that.

You must have seen Ray's gaze and understood what he was looking at. The skewer owner opens his mouth like he's having a little trouble.

"As you can see, many people are unable to travel from the Guild due to this disturbance. Many merchants, in particular, make contracts and make purchases and such. Some merchants come directly to trade, but they also have deadlines to carry purchased goods."

"But there's no doubt about what that adventurer is saying, is there? Even if we can't move here, given the current situation, it's definitely just gonna feed on us, right?

"Oh. I know the neighborhood... but some of them have actually made it through the herd to Gilm. If you look at that, it's not weird to think that maybe we're okay, too, right?

The shopkeeper's words were also an unmistakable fact.

In fact, there was a merchant squad following the boulevard that seemed to have come to Gilm this way.

How did you know that the merchant had just arrived in Gilm because there were several scratches on the carriage?

There are also slaughter wounds on horses carrying carriages, indicating that someone attacked them to see them.

"If you see these people, maybe the merchants can't help but think..."

"Right. … but there's plenty of room for the people of this city to be trapped in the Guild."

"It's not uncommon for a bunch of monsters to show up so far."

I guess I'm happy to talk to Vihera, who deserves to describe herself as an extinct beauty. The shopkeeper's man returns the words with a smile.

It is true that Vihera is as serious as she says, but there was still nothing like that much trouble for the store owner of living in a guild instead of leaving the guild.

"Usually if you're stuck in the city, you need to worry about food... don't worry about that area. Ning Lo, I have extra food."

That's why I run the store myself, and the shopkeeper keeps going.

In the words, Ray and Vihera have a convincing look.

More than there are so many flocks of monsters, it naturally becomes necessary to defeat them.

The bodies of the monsters that defeated them in that way had naturally been brought back to the guilds as various materials and food.

It is significant that the monsters that make the flock are subhuman and that no powerful flock of monsters has been discovered so far.

… Most importantly, if such a powerful horde of monsters were discovered, an immediate high-ranking adventurer would be dispatched.

That's what Ray and Vihera were sent to do, like a bunch of Lizardmans.

In that sense, the shopkeeper's statement that there is excess food in the Ningro Guild is not incorrect.

"What would be more troublesome than that would be a non-food issue. … the kind of preference? There's plenty of food and meat, but when it comes to flour and that kind of relationship, it gets pretty tough. Still, it helps that you don't have to worry about starving."

"I don't have to worry about bread or anything."

Inside the mysteries, there is plenty of bread.

It's also freshly baked and fragrant, very tasty bread.

The stall owner had a gaze of envy at how Ray looked like that.

For a shopkeeper selling food, I want an item box with a lot of stuff in it and time stopping in it so much that I can get my hands out of my throat.

"Rather than that, Ray, it's time to go. You might have some information for the guild, right?

Ray nods at the words of Vihera, who did not eat the skewers.

I can talk to you here, because Vihella's right, the guild might have some information on this herd thing.

Especially as Ray, who wants to crusade the Orc herd, it was only natural to want to get some information as soon as possible.

"Grrrrrrrr?"

On Ray's side, Seto rings his throat, too.

You're leaving already? I bought a few more Cobolt skewers to beat Seto.

"Well, unfortunately, you haven't got any information on the orc herd yet."

Kenny shakes his neck to the side to Ray's words that came to the guild.

You should have asked Lenora, because Lenora was currently dealing with other adventurers.

Just in time for Ray to arrive, he talked to Kenny, not Lenora, because the adventurer he was dealing with was over.

For Kenny, I'd say we were lucky.

This is not to say that Ray treated the adventurer in charge coarsely before he arrived, but that it was purely at that time.

"Right. What about the rest of the herd?

"You've got quite a crowd of goblins out there. Cobolt is there too. There's a bunch of warwolves out there somewhere different."

"... that's unusual"

Warwolf, a subhuman monster with a wolf's face, as its name suggests.

A monster as highly sociable as Lizardman, but it's never meant to be human and friendly.

Monsters such as those who are not alike to the Beast Man.

Warwolf against the beast man is tantamount to saying monkey to man.

Especially for canine beasts...... it was such an insult to wolf beasts that it wouldn't be weird to be a duel noise if you did poorly.

"Right. It's just that Warwolf is originally a subhuman monster of the type that makes herds, so in that sense, when superior species emerge, like this one, they get stronger all at once. And unlike other monsters, there are many herds led by the leader species."

"Even when I say that Lizardman or something is sociable, in the end, you often move individually when fighting. If you think about it, Warwolf, who has the characteristics of a wolf hunting in a herd, would be strong."

Tell him to add it to Kenny's words.

Whatever I think about Vihera, I guess I keep a good separation of work and private life.

I nod at that explanation and open my mouth again.

"Right. It's very troublesome when superior species show up there because they've been acting in herds for a long time. Still, if you're the weakest leader system among the top species, you might still be able to figure it out."

"As for the meat... isn't it that good?

"Ray, you're right. It's the same as Oak and Lizardman in terms of Rank D Monster, but it smells pretty bad considering it tastes like meat. But if the cook cooks well, the smell turns into deliciousness."

"Does the smell taste good?... Not interested at all?

With his gaze turned, Vihera nods back a little thinking.

Because Vyhella and I have never fought before.

Vihera's preference was that she liked to fight powerful enemies one-on-one, but it wasn't that she didn't like to fight the enemies she was working with.

Ray has a strong interest in things like what beast-smelling meat turns into... thus the two agree.

If there was a Bühne here, I might have stopped it...... unfortunately there are only two of us here, Ray and Vihera.

Kenny was also unsure what adventurers to turn Warwolf to, which can be more numerous than the rest of the herd in the sense that collaboration is well led by the leader species, so it is very helpful to say that Ray and Vihera will take this request.

"With that said, Marina said she'd look into this one, but you still don't know that area?

"Yeah. They haven't heard anything. I'm talking about the Alliance Master, and I think I'll deal with it as soon as I know something, so I don't think I've found anything yet."

It's also bad to interrupt Ray's questioning that Kenny answers and sees him, so Ray went on a crusade for the Warwolf herd with Vihera.
