Legend

The years change and we turn to the New Year...... Still, nothing in particular has changed and time flies by.

Ray, too, enjoyed his days with Seto with much more time but with no uncommon or disturbing commotion.

Have breakfast in the morning, then spend some time out of the city, play with Seto, or do battle training for Bühne......, walk around for lunch outside with Seto at noon, and spend some afternoon shopping, going to the library, etc.

And in the evening, we go back to the wheat pavilion at dusk while we buy and eat, and have dinner in the dining room.

He's with Vihera and Bühne at dinner, but sometimes the marina puts his face on.

... Fortunately, most people know about the Rays who are currently staying at the wheat pavilion at dusk.

Some people tried to hang on to the fact that a beautiful woman like Marina showed up, but as soon as they found out she knew Ray, they gave up.

Most of all, if anyone knows that a marina is an Alliance Master, they don't imitate that first… basically not many are on the table, so there are never many who can't understand being an Alliance Master when they look at a marina.

Even that day, about a month after New Year's, the marina had come to dinner with the Rays at the wheat pavilion at dusk.

"So, what's it like to take over against a worker? It's not like we're almost there until spring... but it's about two months from now."

"Oh, that's pretty much all right now. Originally the worker remembered well. I was worried because I was a little late coming to Gilm, but I'm done with most of the takeovers, so no problem."

A stew made with dried oak meat, a dish that can be eaten in any number of places around it… That's what the marina tells me while enjoying that dish, which has an exceptionally different flavour, because it takes a variety of hassle time.

"Heh. So there's no problem? If we keep this up, we'll have a good party in the spring."

"Yeah. The body's moving tight too... and that's why there's nothing wrong with having a party tomorrow?

Phew, Vihera opens her mouth as she reaches for the bread to the marina where she smiles and tells her.

"Hmm. Then why don't you join me for a little while tomorrow?

For Vihera, who preferred to fight, the fight against the marina was something you could expect enough.

Adventurers often rest their bodies during the winter months, but since Vihela has battle training with Bühne as she does every day, it doesn't mean she'll be dull.

"Keep it around there. If Vihella and Marina really fought, it would be the courtyard, but it would be the guild's training ground, but I'm pretty sure it would be in all sorts of devastating conditions."

Ray squeaks like a shudder as he eats an egg, vegetable and ham sandwich.

If it's only Vihera, the battle won't be that flashy.

Vihera specializes in melee fights, so the fight itself won't be flashy.

... Less, I'd say it's a terribly important thing compared to when Ray fights with all his might, starting with the Red Armor of the Flaming Emperor.

But not the marina.

With Spirit Magic and Bow...... It also fights Spirit Magic as the main marina, with its skill it becomes a flashy battle.

You don't have to doubt how skilled the marina is if you've ever seen it use spiritual magic to do things like cleaning houses and snow scratching as if you breathe.

(There used to be a guy who made dragons out of water spirits magic... maybe his arms are better than his)

Of course Ray doesn't know much about spiritual magic.

I'm only impressed, but still, Ray was absolutely confident in his own account.

Such a marina, but you will naturally need to be serious to fight Vihera.

At that time, how much damage the surrounding area will be...... Ray tries to imagine it, but at the next moment he trumps it as futile and opens his mouth.

"And Vihera doesn't know exactly what she's capable of right now, either. That's what you do when you get bad serious and do damage to your surroundings...... on the contrary, what if it does damage to you?

"Mmm... I don't have a choice."

It resurrected with the heart of a silver lion...... it was a vihella that regained consciousness to be precise, but I still didn't know what my limitation was right now.

I wanted to know that as soon as I could, but the Grimm who performed the ritual told me not to force it until the magic was tamed with my body.

The Silver Lion's... Rank S Monster's magic makes it so easy to get used to the body.

Not yet, that's not complete.

The battle training with Büne that has been taking place since winter is to train Büne, but also to get used to my current situation because Vihela can do it little by little.

Because we know that, Vihera obeys Ray's words honestly.

… but for those who know Vihela at all, I am surprised that Vihela gave up the fight lightly.

Now, some of the adventurers who were in the dining room and listened to the Rays had not hidden their dismaying expressions.

Ray, Vihera and Marina continue to talk without looking particularly concerned, even as they see such people talking with their gaze.

We understood that we stood out in many ways.

"Still, it's time to really decide on the name of the party, huh? About two months."

"Even if they say so..."

For Ray, who is not confident in his naming sense, it is a very difficult act to tell him to decide on the name of the party.

I guess that would have been a different story if we were to give it a proper name, like the Seto squad.

"Well, only two more months means we still have two months... and that's what we need to decide by the time we actually submit the form to the guild to party with, so I won't rush it. I'm not bound by party names."

"I have no particular detention, just like the marina.... I just want you to stop being too weird."

"... I'll take care of it."

It was also true for Ray that anything was the hardest thing to do.

(You know, comics and stuff. But what do you eat? They ask me and they say whatever, and I have the most trouble with anything...... or whatever, I've seen it like that, but that's what it looks like)

With that in mind, Ray goes to dinner.

Fortunately, that seems to be the end of the party name story.

"So, what's going on with Bühne's training? Vihera's been training more than Ray, hasn't she?

Turning to the conversation about Büne's fighting power in the course of the story, Büne, who was single-minded drinking soup, nodded small once he got his face off the soup.

"Mmm."

I didn't know if Marina could say confident...... but if you turn your gaze to Vihera in charge of Bühne, you will get a nod back from there.

Seeing that, the marina also understood that she would be somewhat confident in her skill.

I understand... but I ask Vihella again, more than just Büne's self-declaration makes it impossible to trust it completely.

"So, what about the truth?

"... right. Originally, Bühne was a bandit, and he wasn't that aggressive, and I think it would have been some kind of force if it meant being thoroughly restrained. … you'll need to be careful when dealing with high-ranking monsters."

Heh.

To the high praise from Vihera, Marina once again sees Bühne.

Vihera, who prefers to fight, comes in a sincere manner when it comes to combat because of her preference.

Just because we've been dating for years doesn't mean we appreciate the power of Bühne more than our strength.

Ray also opens his mouth so as to continue with such Vihera's words.

And there's this dagger Pamidor made for you.

I don't even have to think about what kind of dagger that is.

It's a dagger made of Rank S Monster silver lion material, so that's not a strange weapon for a high-ranking adventurer like Rank A Adventurer to have.

But I guess I didn't say directly here that it was a dagger made of silver lion material, because this is still the tavern.

In front of the adventurers in the dining room and the intelligent merchants, such a weapon... it's not strange that if it's not Ray, Marina, or Vihera, and the child Bühne still has it, it's not strange that someone comes out with a good idea.

I don't suppose anyone would think of imitating that from Ray's presence if it were normal, but in this case, it's a dagger made of material from a Rank S monster.

It wasn't strange when the blood-leader came out.

"Oh, I'm listening. That sounds like a very good dagger."

Marina also understands what Ray is talking about and talks to each other.

In fact, the dagger made from silver lion material is very sharp in terms of the slashing flavour.

As an exception, a Rank S monster would not be able to prevent an attack unless it was an extra exception if it was a monster below Rank A.

Of course, it doesn't make any sense if Bühne's arm is worse than the skill of the user becomes imperative.

"Right. Thanks to this, most monsters have just the means to mount an effective attack. And the clear long needle that I recently started using is quite useful."

Ray also agrees with Vihera's words.

A clear long needle mixed with a regular long needle is a more troublesome substitute than you can imagine.

In Ray's case, you can judge that by hearing or sight, but a normal person would have difficulty with that.

"I see. So, can I assume you don't have to worry about Bühne's fighting power?

"I don't think that's a problem for the most part.... How's Ray?

"I agree with Vihella."

Ray also nods at the words of Vihera.

Büne, who was listening to it, loosens his eyes just a little happily while sipping soup.

... it was about Vihera that I noticed that.

"It's only the role of bandits...... I think Büne has a lot of power too if you think only about enemy restraint or something like that"

With Vihera followed by even Ray guaranteeing Bühne's strength, Marina finally nods back.

"Well, then you don't have a problem.... So next time we all try to get out of the gilm for a bit within the next few minutes? It won't be long till spring, but you'll need to breathe in with each other."

"I don't mind... is Marina better off? Aren't you busy as an Alliance Master when you're almost done handing over to the workers?

Guildmaster's work is not just about taking over.

Other than that, there is a wide variety.

Marina nods to Vihera, who asks if it's okay to go outside the city under such circumstances.

"Now that it's spring or something, I would have worked a lot more as an Alliance Master, but now it's winter. Not that I don't have a job at all, of course, but that's about all I can do. That's why some workers are here."

"... Workers aren't guild masters yet, are they? Okay, well... confidentially."

"It's no problem. Ning Lo, you need to get used to your work while I'm here. Since I'm no longer an Alliance Master in the spring, there's going to be more paperwork and stuff I can't show you."

If you say so, Ray is convinced.

Even former guild masters are naturally more like paperwork than they are currently guild masters.

Given the circumstances around it, it was still imperative to tell me how I would do my job firmly in the moment.

"Most importantly, the workers have a background in running guild outposts in dungeons. It's extraordinarily easier than teaching normal, no-nothing people what to do as guild masters. That's not the same job I do."

Marina's words had strong persuasion.

That's the kind of persuasiveness that you would accidentally convince.

"Okay. If Marina says so, do you want to go outside the guild and hunt for a little monster? When exactly..."

"It's a good day for the marina, isn't it? We have to do something in particular."

Ray nodded at Vihera's words, and Büne nodded again... and thus imitated that some humans - adventurers who had to make money, etc. - would only go outside the guild in the winter.
