Legend

Shin, shin, snow keeps falling.

It took a lot of time before it started snowing, but once it snowed, the snow instantly builds up.

While it was snowing like that, Ray was walking down the boulevard with Seto.

A few days after the arrival of a merchant named Tris, who is unlikely to be understood by Ray's eyes.

Maybe he'll show his face around the next day again? And that's what Ray thought, but Tris... and the merchant from the Spiel Chamber of Commerce to which Tris belonged never showed up.

(In the first place, it was too late for the Spiel Chamber of Commerce and them to show their faces in front of me. The rest of the merchants and the Chamber of Commerce were already after they showed their faces)

Much time has already passed since the release of information that Ray attacked the dungeon.

All I could say was that it was a long time too late for a merchant to show up in front of Ray who should be called sensitive to see the occasion.

It was snow that has been falling since last night, but it has already been consolidated by the inhabitants of Gilm and there is no pleasure in treading fresh snow.

Still watching the falling snow and cloudy weather, Ray walks toward his destination.

"Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!

I guess it's interesting that it's snowing itself. Seto runs around Ray's side, throbbing in an upper mood.

... So what doesn't hit anyone else walking at all, like Griffon's dazzling leap?

(You're a dog. puppies too)

Depending on the size of your body, Ceto, who is not very much but can't say puppy, etc., but who runs around trying to chase the snow that comes down, is adorable enough to convince you if you say puppy.

Ray wasn't the only one who seemed to think so, and other passers-by walking down the boulevard had a grin on their mouths like they didn't expect to see Seto running around.

"Ah! Ray, it's not you! What's wrong, in here! Do you play snow with Seto?

Ray, who was walking down the boulevard with Seto, turned his gaze to his familiar voice...... in the hood of a dragon robe, he would open his eyes wide.

Whose voice is it? I can't possibly hear it differently because it's the voice I've been hearing for years.

But it wasn't Ray's anticipated face that was ahead of him with his gaze... he was dressed multiple times and couldn't tell the shape of his face by hats, masks, etc.

For a moment I thought it was a mistake to see something, Ray, but still open my mouth to understand whose voice I hear this way.

"Kenny...?

Still, I can't tell you it's Kenny, and I guess it's because of the way he looks that he's been questioned.

"What, did you mistakenly see me for someone else?

"... No, you said you saw it wrong..."

I guess you're right that you couldn't recognize Kenny as Kenny in this case, but it was obvious that Kenny could blame you for saying that honestly.

I understand that, so Ray clouds his words.

"Hmm...... ma, fine. What's wrong with you in the cold, Ray?... Is that it? Different shoes?

Is it sharp about Ray, Kenny tells him so quickly?

"Oh. Slapenil's shoes are being fortified by Azimov. And in the meantime, I'm wearing these shoes."

"Really?... Oh, could it be the silver lion's?

Naturally Kenny knows that Ray attacked the dungeon as well, beyond being the guild's receptionist.

No, you'd be pretty familiar with Ray's info, even while he's in Ning Lo Guild.

"Grrrrrrrrrrrr?"

Who? and Seto walks around Kenny.

You know it's Kenny by smell and voice, but you still couldn't tell it was Kenny from the look of it.

"What is it, Seto?"

Kenny gently strokes Seto with his gloved hand.

Seto must have finally understood that it was Kenny by being stroked.

Seto is rubbing his face against Kenny as he buzzes happily.

"Heh heh, what's going on, Seto? You're so sweet today."

"Seto is very nostalgic at first.... than that, what happened to Kenny? What about the guild today?

"It starts this afternoon. Organizing paperwork..."

It was Kenny saying something, but it stops on the way.

If Marina quits the Alliance Master and is a Consultant and Adventurer...... No, considering which one she puts her weight on, should she be called an Adventurer and Consultant?

Anyway, not so many people know that Marina is quitting the Alliance Master.

Not so many of the guilds, and few of the guilds.

I guess Kenny knows in that because he often engages with Ray along with Lenora.

If he is to return as an adventurer, Marina naturally will be deeply involved with Lenora and Kenny.

That's why I let you know in advance.

Regardless of the serious Lenora, wouldn't Kenny with a light personality sometimes accidentally let his mouth slip? And I doubt it, Ray, but as far as I can tell right now, I guess that's not true.

"I see."

You don't have to say what's ahead of you, Ray tells you that out of the blue and turns his gaze to Kenny again.

Usually he was Kenny in a guild uniform with a wide open chest to show off his own limbs, but now he makes you think that the same would not be the case with someone whose word swelling suits him any better.

(I'm a cat beast, and I'm probably right if it means getting round with a torch)

I find myself unwittingly convinced by how Kenny looks as opposed to Seto looking happy to see the snow.

Looks like Kenny.

"Ray, what's wrong with you?... hey, why don't we rest together somewhere more than that? I know a store that serves you some good treats."

"Uh... bad. I've been thinking about going to the library."

Yes, Ray's purpose today is the library.

Materials of silver lions, currently heavily dead in Ray's mysteries.

I was wondering if I could do something with it.

I also spoke to Vihera and Buune before I left the Inn, but both of them answered no.

I thought Ray had nothing to do with it right now... but for a while now, Büne has been trained by Vihera.

I heard about Ambris and the Silver Lion, and I guess that's how I felt that I was clearly powerless to be with the Rays from now on.

In fact, what Ray and Vihera, acting together, expect from Bühne is only a skill as a bandit, and his fighting power is only secondary.

But I guess Bühne himself is not convinced of that.

... There is also a difference in the intensity of the Rays in the cause of that Bühne's behavior, but there was no doubt that there was also a degeneration of Vihera by Ambris.

For Bühne, Vihera is a place that stands out from the rest of us.

Ceto for Ray, Ara for Elaine...... and Vihela for Büne.

That's who they are.

However, the colour of Vihella's eyes changed, and according to what I heard in more detail, there were many other changes.

Especially big would be its lifespan.

Grimm, who performed the ritual of regaining Vihella's consciousness, said she was told that her life expectancy was growing beyond that of a human being. That's what they're asking.

I am left behind as I am.

With that in mind, Bühne is being trained by Vihella to be a little stronger.

Of course it wasn't just Vihera, but sometimes Ray can also deal with her.

From such a ray, it seemed to me that Bühne had a lot of fighting talent.

If you move quickly with that tiny body, there's nothing like hitting an attack like that.

I guess it's because Büne himself has been diving in the dungeons with his body ever since. In the sense of dodging the attack, it was a very unlikely ability to be about ten years old.

However... a small body that is advantageous in the sense of avoiding enemy attacks can also be a lethal factor in the sense of attacking an enemy.

An attack on an opponent can tear the skin, but not even the flesh can be cut completely, instead of breaking the bone.

Given Bühne's physical abilities, it's natural, but he's not strong enough anyway.

Some people in the world have amazing powers, even small bodies.

That would be a good example of this.

It has incredible power from its very appearance.

Not as much as Ray, not many people have incredible powers because of the size of their bodies, starting with Dwarves.

But...... in the case of Bühne, there is only the power that corresponds physically to appearance.

I guess that's why they're targeting their steeple or using weapons like long needles.

(But it's easy to prevent people from targeting steeples. If we had the means of attack that had nothing to do with the opponent's defense, like Vihella's immersion clap, we wouldn't be talking about it)

After all, what Bühne is poised for is not to defeat the enemy, but to hold the enemy and flirt with it at its pre-holding speed.

That's what I thought, Ray, but Büne knew that it was useless to say anything more than just hope that he would defeat his opponent.

"Mr. Ray? What's the matter with you?

"Oh, no. Nothing."

"Hmmm.... is it a library more than that? I would love to go to a place like that often. If you're going to the library, I think you should still walk outside in this snow."

Kenny also has more upbringing than he has as a guild receptionist.

That's why I've been to the library so many times before, but that's only because I need it for the receptionist's job.

I wanted to move on from myself to the library, not very much, but I didn't think.

"Originally, I didn't hate reading books."

"... you've changed a lot."

"Really? If you're a wizard, I don't think anyone hates reading books.... Well, that's each person, so maybe some wizards don't like reading books."

"With that said, there were a few adventurers who liked to read books."

"Right?"

Originally, the literacy rate of adventurers is never low.

Naturally. If you can't read the letters, you can't read the requisitions on the requisition board and you don't even know the amount of the reward.

On the contrary, if you work with a malicious opponent, your reward could even be taken away.

For this reason, adventurers can read to a lesser extent… the amount of rewards, letters like crusades, collections, materials, and so on, and there are never many who can write.

Not to mention that this guild is more than just a border and brings together a lot of skilled adventurers, and the high literacy rate could even exceed the king's capital if you do poorly.

And if there are many who can read letters, it would be natural for there to come out those who find pleasure in reading books.

… most of all, should I say sex of the adventurer. It is also true that many people still prefer to move their bodies to read books.

"Um, we still have a little time before we get to the guild, and if we could, Ray, I just wanted to take a moment with you."

"Next time you get a chance, please."

"Absolutely, huh?... Then I'm going to the guild. Lenora, I'm gonna tease you, I'm gonna kill you."

"You're gonna piss me off again?

Making fun of Lenora, Kenny, was a familiar sight in the guild.

Because some of them even want to see the interaction between the two of them and go to the guild.

"It's okay. He's too serious about everything. I need to make a little tease of you and make you feel better.... Bye."

With that said, Kenny waves away gently, even though he seems a little sorry he ran out of time to talk to Ray.

Ray strokes Seto's head as he approaches him when he drops Kenny off like that.

The library and the guild are in the same direction from where Ray is now, so Ray could have gone with Kenny... and that's what Kenny decides that not saying anything probably meant that there was something going on over there.

"Well, shall we go too?

"Grrrrrr...... grrrrrrr?

Are you going? and Ray walks out of the boulevard again, with Seto turning his gaze.

Many passers-by stared at Seto with a gracious look who seemed happy.

Not very much, but you won't be able to look at Ceto right now and determine he's a vicious monster.

(I guess that means Seto is missed by the inhabitants of Gilm)

I was happy with that, and Ray couldn't stop laughing at his mouth unexpectedly.
