Legend

The day after her conversation with Elaine, Ray was sleeping on the bed in the wheat pavilion room at dusk as usual.

But Ray, who was in deep sleep, accidentally opens his eyes.

Usually for a few minutes...... I was more than sleeping Ray if I was bad enough, but now that I just woke up, my consciousness is already clear.

Stand up and sharply point your gaze towards the door... and the door is slammed hard so that it goes back and forth.

"Please wake up, Mr. Ray. Excuse me, but I'd like you to come to the guild right away!

I guess the voice you hear from across the door is that of the guild clerk.

Something usually happened. I often think about Lenora in charge of Ray, especially coming to get Ray... but if you still see how dim it is out the window, you can also convince me why.

Simply, I wonder if Lenora is still before work hours.

(But what brings you so fast? It's still dark out there, huh? Then it must be something urgent.)

When you turn on the magic item lights to brighten up the room and then wear a dragon robe to get up to speed, you have a bad feeling past your chest.

(Maybe something happened to the Death Size and the Dusk Spear? Because I know you're in such a hurry.)

My favorite weapon from an adventurer... said I borrowed a magic item as well, but if they stole it, I can't help but panic so far.

Of course that means there's no choice for the Alliance side, not for Ray, who may have stolen a magic item.

(Well, what can I do for you)

When I opened the door, it was the guild staff who were there, as expected.

Ray was also a person who had seen his face several times in the guild before.

(Yeah?)

But when I meet that person, Ray wonders.

What's floating in the face of the guild staff in front of me is not something I'm thinking of apologizing to Ray for, though not very much.

On the contrary, he even had a joyous look on his face.

(Isn't this about a magic item being stolen or something?

While wondering, Ray opens his mouth to the person in front of him.

"Early this morning...... no, late at night? Whatever, what's going on at this hour?

"Yes. Actually, I want Mr. Ray to come to the guild."

"... may I ask why?

"That's on the move. We have a carriage in front of the inn."

I nod at the words of the guild staff with the attitude that I am in a hurry, and decide that if I go to the guild for now, I will know why.

"Okay.... So, it's just me? Some Viheras are working with me."

"There's a woman on her way, so I thought I'd come to the carriage right away."

"... you coming?

Ray also knows that it takes a long time for a woman to show herself.

In the case of Vihela in particular, we have always acted together and knew that it would take longer than normal, in addition to the fact that the clothes we are wearing are different and special.

"If it's going to take a while, you'll come back later... now let's go anyway. Please."

If the Alliance officials bow their heads like that, Ray can't refuse even though he doesn't have something to do.

It also seemed to spare me the worst assumption that my magic items would be stolen, but that's why I'm very concerned about what happened.

"Okay."

Eventually, he snorts briefly at the words of the guild staff and goes straight out of the room.

As we went straight down the stairs to the first floor, there was a stranger to Ray at the inn reception.

Who? I questioned him for a moment, but decided he must be an official at the wheat pavilion at dusk more than he was at the reception.

In fact, I guess it's not a mistake because the guild officials were honestly receiving word of apology for making a scene in the morning...... no, starting at midnight.

When I went outside the inn, there was a carriage that I had seen several times before.

Ray was also the first person to see the person on your stand, but he's still wearing his guild uniform, so he'll definitely be an guild official.

"Okay, go ahead. Easy food and drinks are available inside, so if you're hungry or thirsty, go ahead."

"Yeah? Aren't you going to explain the situation to me?

"Yes. But I'm going to take a look at Mr. Vihera. If it's going to take a while, like I said, we're going to go ahead and turn the other carriage around."

"... well, fine. Well, before you do, can I check on Seto for a second? You're leaving the inn at this hour, so shut up and you'll probably be worried."

"Huh? Oh, yes. Of course I don't mind... does Tamer mean we know each other's place even if we're away?

To Ray's words, an Alliance official asks strangely.

Tamer... not precisely because it's due to warcraft, Seto can sense Ray's magic and sense where he is... but that didn't make sense.

"Me and Seto have been together since we were kids, and we're bonded deeply. Seto, in particular, is a rare species among griffons."

In the end, I mislead with my usual reason.

Neither do guild officials question Ray's words.

No, maybe you have questions, but is it right that you don't put them in your mouth?

In front of the Alliance staff is a high ranking adventurer with an alias.

Because if you imitate it to the detriment of your mood, you don't know what the detriment would be.

"Okay. But I don't have much time because I want to hurry as much as I can...... do you mind?

"No problem. Then hurry up."

To say just that, Ray leaves the guild staff on the spot to those with stables.

Even if there are those who are early in the morning, they will not be the first to be awake at this hour.

More than that, Ray reaches the stables without seeing anyone in particular.

"Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr"

I guess I noticed Ray came. As soon as I open the stables doors, I hear such a settling.

Horses accustomed to Seto in the stables stay asleep even when they hear a squeal, or they open their eyes for a moment and go back to sleep again, but horses who are not accustomed to it yet do not either, forcing themselves into fear.

The fortunate thing about being unhappy was that few people came to the guild about Ambris and most of the animals in the stables were already used to Ceto?

Ray opens his mouth as he says it's still dim, but when he comes before Ceto, who is happy to throat him when he realizes that Ray has arrived, he strokes Ceto rubbing his head against Ray as he strokes him.

"Hey, Guild called me. I'm sorry, but it's gonna come out a little."

"Grrrrrrrr?"

Are you all right? and Seto tilting his little neck.

I guess Seto also understands that there was quite a bit going on because he would be summoned at such a time.

With such a stroke of Seto's head, Ray opens his mouth to reassure him.

"The Alliance Master is a marina, so I don't think he's going to do any weird imitations. At first, I wondered if the magic items I'd left over there had been stolen, but apparently that's not why."

"Grrrrrrrr......"

To Ray's explanation, Seto was just a little relieved to hear it.

Still, he seemed lonely to be left behind, though there was a sad light in his circular eyes.

But you know that even if I say all I can here, it's just gonna be a nuisance to Ray. Seto didn't say anything more about me.

"Well, I'm going, so Seto's going to get some sleep. Maybe tomorrow... No, because I'm going to have a lot of things moving today."

Griffon's Ceto is the only one who has a fine ecology for a few days without having to sleep in particular.

But not having to sleep is something else altogether.

Besides, Seto never hates the influence or sleep originally created by Warcraft.

I especially like to sleep under spring sunlight, in the shade of summer trees, in the refreshing air of autumn, and can normally sleep in winter snow due to my body's sturdiness as a griffon.

I like sleeping the most, but I also like being with Ray more than that.

Seto takes the lookout when Ray makes camp, so it moves instantly as the opponent approaches to do harm to his favorite Ray.

"Grrrrrrrrrrrr"

Take care, and one last stroke of Seto, who rings his throat, and Ray leaves the stables intact.

That's how in front of the inn...... when I came back to where the carriage was, Vihera, who had just made herself known from the inn, just showed up.

It's supposed to be close to waking up, but as far as Ray's eyes can tell, Vihella's appearance isn't at all the same as what he always sees.

The way he wears his usual thin coat can be described as looking like a vihella.

... There were a few places where I couldn't always say I was happy or unhappy because I had gotten myself together in this short time... but Ray never noticed it.

The joy of not having to see your sloppy place for someone you love and the dissatisfaction of wanting you to notice minor changes as well.

Vihera opens her mouth even as she feels the conflicting heart in her.

"Apparently, you're ready."

"Oh. I don't know about a man's closeness, if that bothers you, it's gonna be easy."

Of course that's just an adventurer like Ray.

Those in positions, like nobles and big merchants, can be more quickly identified by men, unless they have much to offer.

"Yes. Then let's get in the carriage. You're gonna explain the situation to me while I'm on the move, right?

Tell Vihera as she turns her gaze behind her.

At the end of that gaze were the guild staff of the man who came to wake Ray and the woman who must have gone to wake Vihella.

"Yes, let me do that. So let's hurry."

Following the voice of the man's guild clerk, Ray boards into the carriage with Vihera.

I guess the Alliance side also understood that it would be insane to go and get Ray and Vihera at this time. Whether it was the marina's instructions or those of other guild officials, the carriage Ray and Vihella boarded was a very well equipped object.

Ray asks the guild official as he quickly reaches for the sandwich that was available.

"So, I think it's time you explained the situation?

"Right. … Simply put, from the Death Size and Dusk Spear borrowed from Ray, we were able to identify the remnants of Ambris, and from that remnants we completed a magic item that should also be called the Ambris Detector."

"... what?

To explain the guild staff, it was the voices that fell out of Ray's mouth during that time.

Vihera wasn't in her voice either, but she hasn't been able to hide her surprise look.

It was Ray, who was stopping his hand reaching for the sandwich, but eventually opens his mouth.

"That's a lot quicker if it's true again. It hasn't been a day since I left my Death Size and Twilight Spear, has it?

"Yeah. I know how Mr. Ray feels. Honestly, even the Alliance was too hasty to deploy, and when the report came, it was confusing."

I know how Ray feels. The guild clerk of the woman next door nodded in agreement with the words of the guild clerk of the man who said so.

It usually takes a lot of time just to make a magic item.

That would be obvious given how much time it took to make Ray's twilight spear.

Most importantly, the spear of dusk used to collect a variety of rare items, and it must take longer than a typical magic item.

"Is that real? Didn't I tell you I finished a magic item that wasn't even meant to deceive you?

Vihera calms down just a little after drinking the fruit water she had prepared in the carriage, asks the guild staff.

I guess Alliance officials also understood that being suspected that way. Nodding at the words of Vihera and opening her teasing mouth.

"Naturally, when I first heard the story, even the guild doubted it that way. But I checked with the guild and concluded that the magic item was never fake."

"Apparently, why are you so fuzzy? If that's a magic item you can really look for Ambris, then why don't you just use it once?

"Yep. Of course that's what the guild thought...... unfortunately I couldn't start it"

"What?"

Guild officials continue their words with a bitter smile on Ray, who looks like he doesn't know what the hell he's talking about.

"According to those who made the magic item, we succeeded in removing the remnants of Ambris, but there were remnants of it… we couldn't eliminate the magic of Death Size and Dusk Spear. It's possible, of course, if you take the time, but now it means even a moment sooner..."

That's what they said, and Ray understood why he was summoned.
