Legend

The day after Ray and the others met with Precious towards Slam Street...... Ray's appearance was in front of Azimov's house.

I noticed in the guard force, and the day was amazing... but still, the next day they were already back at their house.

Ray didn't even know that, but that's what he heard when he met guards all over the city, and he came here to make sure it was true.

From the exterior of the building, nothing unusual in particular.

Seto ran into Azimov's lab, but that wasn't where I could see him from here.

That's why there's nothing particularly unusual about what you see from the table.

"... well, it's still about Azimov, and naturally I guess he's doing something about it"

Given Azimov's character, I don't think he's doing the same where he was raided once.

When Ray whines thinking so, Vihera nods next to him.

"Right. Ning Lo, I'm pretty sure you're ready to fight back, right?

"I guess. Still, there's gonna be pamidoles and stuff in this house, and I don't think there's anything like intercepting them without question..."

Still, I can't say enough, probably because the subject is still Azimov.

Given Azimov's character, that's the moment he knocks on the door and explodes...... and so on, there's no such thing as impossible at all.

(No problem, right?...... yeah, maybe ok)

He groans to tell himself, and eventually Ray makes sure he wears a dragon robe securely before knocking on the door.

"Azimov, are you there?

Calling from outside the house, reassured that the knocked door is nothing in particular.

It's been about a minute... eventually, the door opened.

"Who? Oh, Ray."

It was Azimov, naturally, who showed up.

Especially if something is wrong... it doesn't look like there is any kind of after-effect of the injury.

At ease with that, Ray opens his mouth.

"Whatever comes back from the guard's stuffing, isn't it inadvertent to be home alone? Temporarily, why don't you hire an escort?

"I hardly like that kind of stuff. Besides, many adventurers can't be trusted this time of year."

Even Azimov, who is often enthusiastic about his research, probably knew more about the circumstances around it than he lived in Gilm.

(No. Is it natural for an alchemist? If you hire a magic item made around the corner or a detoured adventurer as an escort, that's when it disappears with the escort... is that still a good idea? If you do poorly, that's more likely to be attacked by escort adventurers)

Actually, you're pretty solid... and Ray is impressed to see how Azimov is doing.

But... that's why it's only a matter of noise that the targeted person doesn't have an escort.

"You don't even have to pick a rookie, do you? That's the kind of adventurer you've been in the Guild for a long time, and you'll have some credibility."

"... even if they say so. I'm busy with research, so I hardly know any adventurers. I've only heard the names of a few Rank A adventurers or aliases."

"You're so smart for once... aren't adventurers coming to do something or something?

"I'm coming, but I don't deal with most of them. No, I've got some guys I've dealt with... more guys who don't remember their names. If you look at my face, you'll see."

"Well, you remember me a lot."

"In Ray's case... Seto too. Pamidor brought him here."

Only freaks, I'm not sure how Azimov thinks.

That was Ray's honest feelings.

But I'm not saying anything more than I know it doesn't make much sense.

"Then why don't Ray introduce someone to the escort? If you know Ray, there's no such thing as trying to steal something from this house, is there?

I nod to the words of Vihera, who tells me so, to agree with Marina and Büne, as well as Seto, who is not yet on his way to the courtyard.

"Someone I know?

"Yeah. How's it going?

"Even if they say so..."

To Vihera's suggestion, Ray gets stuck in words.

Not as good as Azimov, and Ray's face is never wide either.

No, many of the adventurers know Ray's face.

The face that took off the hood of the dragon robe is also quite widespread.

But... that's just to say that I know Ray's face, and not so much that Ray knows who he's dealing with.

The same goes for the strength of Ray, but it would still be his character.

The personality of not tolerating hostile opponents is rarely held dear, even if they are sometimes frightened.

Of course not everyone is afraid of Ray and stays away from him...

"Mileyne said she'd be asking again from today."

It was Mileine, who was happily playing with Seto yesterday, but he is only noticed as a young Hope, and often requests for nominations come in this season.

Also, even without it, it was just spring now, and I should have received the requests I could have received in an attempt to manage to increase the amount of funds I had reduced during the winter months.

"So... elk? No, Elk's not in the Guild."

There is also the matter of rehab, currently elk...... no, the thunderous god axe is out of the gilm with the whole family.

"Hmmm...... that's hard. Why don't you go to the guild for a second and think about it? Maybe there's someone in the guild. Or go ahead..."

So Ray, who stopped the words, turns his gaze to the marina... to the person who had been guild master until a short while ago.

I suppose you know what opinion they're asking for. Marina opens her mouth with a few thoughts.

"Um, unfortunately, under the circumstances, you'd better stop me from putting my face on the guild and mouthing things. You're gonna get all kinds of misunderstandings."

"So what are you asking here, not in the guild?

"... if you can't help it... you should stop it if you can."

"Why?

Vihera pinches her mouth for a conversation between Ray and Marina.

"This is what Red Lotus Wings do, isn't it? Thinking about the future, if you can, you shouldn't rely too much on authority or anything, not on my abilities. If it's a guild, that's fine, but you'd have trouble working in other cities and villages, wouldn't you? You should get used to it by now."

Nothing. Don't you have to do it now? And for a moment I thought, Ray, but it was Marina's idea that experience at times like this was very important.

If you leave it to someone when there's nothing, it's not that difficult.

However, in this case, there is no time… and how do other adventurers behave when they are too busy to be contacted?

Of course, if I had to, Marina was going to ask an adventurer she knew, but now she's not going to talk about it.

Anyway, gaining experience as a party leader was something to do as soon as possible, more than just act as Red Lotus Wings from now on.

"... ok. Then why don't you just go get the guild? Azimov's escort..."

"Mmm!"

... Why?

That was Ray's honest feelings.

I was wondering why Bühne would run for Azimov's escort.

Basically, Büne rarely moves on and acts on something from herself.... Except when it comes to food.

That's how Bhune named Azimov's escort only today for some reason.

It would be natural for Ray to wonder.

No, Ray wasn't the only one who wondered. The same was true of Marina, who still had a shallow relationship with Büne, and of Vihera, who had a long relationship.

"What's wrong, unusual"

"Mmm."

To Vihera's question, Bühne answers briefly.

But that alone would have largely understood Bühne's will. Vihera opens her mouth towards Ray as she ponders a little.

"It's best for me to stay... it seems like that's what you think?

"The beaune? Well, you can tell by the current exchange. … now."

It's something I've known for a long time that Vihera and Buune don't have to put everything into words like themselves and Seto to understand their will.

Is it also somehow telepathic? and Ray, who for a moment questioned me, immediately pushes the idea out of my head that I don't need to shake my head to the side.

In fact, the problem, it's not a bad story for Ray to say that Büne will stay here as an escort.

Biune is not as strong as the other three, but he's still much more combative than before through winter training.

To the extent that I don't think it's a problem in the sense of escorting, even if it's less.

Besides, only the bandits are excellent at their ability to erase their signs, so it would definitely be the best person in this by not interfering with Azimov.

The biggest problem is that Azimov and Bühne cannot communicate with each other firmly.

Of course, I can snort and shake my neck sideways and communicate with you at a minimum.

"... Ha, you can't help it. All right. I'll stay here, too, so go to the guild with Ray and the marina. Seto..."

"Right, should I leave it here for once? That's good, isn't it, Seto?

"Gru."

Lost in the story of the Rays and the spring sunshine, it was Seto who looked like he was going to sleep, but reacts quickly to Rays' words.

"Well, that's what... go. Azimov, I'm gonna find a guy in the guild who can escort you, okay?

"If you don't get in the way of my research, fine. But do we need to get that far?

"You, aren't you not conscious enough that you were about to die?

To Azimov's words, Ray whines as if he was somewhere shuddered.

"Even so. He was attacked and lost his mind and, if he noticed, he was in the guard's jar with no scratches at all. So, you think it's a little more imperative to feel the crisis?

"Uh... yeah. Maybe."

For Azimov, he must have also been fortunate to have been raided and unconscious.

I was Ray thinking about that, but that's it, this is this.

"Still, you could be targeted again from now on. They were after me once, so it's not always safe anymore."

"Well, I guess so."

"Can you afford the money?... No, I don't even need to hear this"

Azimov has some problems with his personality, but he must be an amazing alchemist making dusk spears and improving his Slapenil shoes. There was basically no more trouble with gold than that.

Basically, it's only normal here.

Alchemist is the main task of making magic items, but making such magic items also requires a variety of materials.

I would be satisfied with a certain amount of material if it were normal... In the case of Ajimov, I would ask for a scarcer material, a higher performance material because I can use a variety of materials just to get my arms up poorly...

That would make sense of Azimov's restraint on the material, given how much material he poured into the spear of dusk.

But Azimov nods to Ray, who gives him a slightly worried look.

"If you take up to five gold coins in the meantime, you can send them out immediately."

"... because the reward isn't that high"

It depends, of course, on the person you ask for, but it's still too expensive to have five gold coins for an escort.

"Just a few days...... so see how it goes, and if you seem to need a little more time, I think adding will take shape, but what's the problem?

"I don't mind. If you don't get in my way, I'll annotate you."

"Then that's what I'm talking about.... Vihera, I asked you"

"Yes, yes, I'll take care of it. Ray picked a good escort."

Waving gently, Vihera pulls Bühne and Azimov toward the house.

Seto also heads to the courtyard, feeling a little sorry to leave with Ray.

Dropping off one with those three, only Ray and Marina were left on the spot.

"Shall we go, then? Think about it, Ray and I are a little unusual."

"Really?... If you say so. I think we spent a lot of time together in the winter, but wasn't it just the two of us?"

"Yeah. So I'm pretty happy to see this now, huh? Of course, I need an escort on the Azimov case, and I know that's why I'm going looking for one."

Head to the guild with the glossy grinning marina.

Sometimes Marina wears a party dress, and if you just look there, she also looks like she's escorting a date.

... unless Ray is wearing a dragon robe and a marina wearing a party dress is carrying a bow and an arrow.

That's how they went out on the street and headed for the guild...

"Uh! Ray!?

With the guild in front of him, such a voice accidentally echoed around him.
