Legend

Ray looks back to the voice he inadvertently heard from behind.

I didn't feel aggressive because all over the city like this... sometimes I decided that it wouldn't be attacked in front of the Alliance, and most importantly because it was a familiar voice.

That's how I turned around. At the end of Ray's gaze was a pair of bandits and warriors.

Look at the two familiars, Ray opens his mouth.

"Allogan on Cullot? Also, what's going on? It's a rare combination."

There he was, as Ray said, Rank D Party, two of the long-standing powers.

I would have been a long-time force with the addition of the wizard Scola here, but I don't see Scola today.

In the same period Ray had previously challenged the rank-up exam, it was originally in the form of two familiar children, Currot and Scola, and an alogan added after the rank-up exam there, forming a long force.

Alogan got tangled up in Ray before the rank-up exam and was reminded of the difference in strength... but Ray and I didn't have to be that bad because we still slept together, even a little bit.

"Scola says she's going to study magic for a bit. I was supposed to act with this guy for about ten days."

With a disgusting look on his face, Cullott sees an alogan.

There is no way that Cullot would naturally keep his mouth shut if he imitated it like that, just for Alogan, who is originally short of energy.

"Damn, what are you talking about? Don't you know I'm the one who's putting up with this?

"What?

"What is it?

Gurgi, two people staring at each other.

But Ray has no way of stopping those two.

You questioned that, marina pulls Ray's dragon robe a little and opens her mouth.

"Hey, hey. Are you sure?"

"Oh, that's okay. For those two, the usual twisted fit. See, you say that a lot, don't you? He said he was close enough to fight."

"Who's with a guy like this!

I guess I heard what Ray said. Alogan and Cullot both stop talking and scream at Ray.

... I couldn't help but be told that when I saw that the timing for shouting was so right that there was no more, I was sure my breath was right.

"... and Ray more than that. Maybe I'm with you..."

"Wow... you're lying..."

Cullot, who first stopped arguing with words in Ray's words, stops the words with surprise when he looks at Ray.

Not exactly Ray, but behind Ray... but look at Marina.

Alogan, too, knew the previous guild master Marina, had stopped moving.... No, you would be right that you were blinded by the beauty of the marina.

Cullot kicks an alogan's leg like that.

"Ouch! Hey, what are you doing all of a sudden!

"Shut up! I saw the Alliance Master and stretched it under my nose."

"Ha-ha. What, you're jealous... Ouch! So don't kick me all of a sudden!

"Shut up, you over-conscious man! Who's jealous?

Seeing the two of them start arguing again, I guess Marina also understood that this is normal for these two.

Don't try to stop me any more... open my mouth as I was convinced.

"Oh, I remember. When you take a rank-up exam with Ray, that's it, right? There's something about Elaine. A while ago."

"Yes, that's it. There were a few others..."

Elf woman and human man.

Ray grins as he remembers the two archers and warriors.

It was a lot of personalized faces, but back then the rank-up exams were far away... that's what makes it seem like a decade ago.

I guess that's a sign that Ray's days have been fulfilling or intense.

If it was actually ten years ago, is Ray still about ten years old?

When elementary school was over, he played with friends and was running around in the mountains.

"Ray? What's going on?

"No, that rank-up exam seemed like a long time ago."

"That wouldn't be a strange story, given Ray's character to get into trouble with."

It was Ray who was slightly dissatisfied with Marina's words, but when I saw Marina inadvertently giving herself a meaningful gaze... and pointing it at two people, Alogan and Cullot, I find it fuzzy.

Yes, the two people in front of me right now are opponents that I can say are somewhat close to Ray, and I don't really get the request because Scola is acting differently.

Exactly, he was no longer the person Ray was looking for.

In the sense of strength, it doesn't necessarily mean you can feel safe because you don't know how much strength the person who attacked Azimov has.

But Alogan has the Devil's Sword, and his fighting power will be at the top of the Rank D Adventurers.

Cullot is a bandit, not a very strong fighter, but only a bandit has a good ability to detect traps and raids.

... In the sense of pure combat power, Bühne is probably better than Cullot.

The weapon Baiyun and the combat training that has been repeated during the winter months had given Beaune that much fighting power.

But in terms other than combat power, the culot is definitely still higher.

"... Well, I haven't seen you in a long time like this. What do you say, I have a request for one long-time power...

To the word request, Cullot and Arogan each have a strange look on their face.

Sounds happy, then scary...... such a complicated look.

Without Scola, I can't take a lot of requests.

But I want to make some money if I can.

In that sense, I was glad we had a request... but the biggest problem is that it was Ray who brought that request.

The request Ray brought cannot be just a request.

Bizarre trust in Ray.

Ray, with such a gaze on him, gives a slightly... just a slightly dissatisfied look.

"If there's anything else to complain about, you don't have to take it. I'll look for him in the guild."

That's what Ray said, but even if you look for Azimov's escort in your guild, you won't always find him, beyond the fact that you don't actually know so many adventurers.

It was a word close to a kind of bluff, but fortunately now it seems to have worked well enough.

As I panicked, Cullot opens his mouth.

"Wait a minute. I didn't say I wouldn't take any requests. So? What kind of request is that? Let me ask you something. If you can handle it, you can take it."

You don't mind, do you? and a culotto pointing his gaze at Allogan, but the Allogan who received that gaze also seemed to have no particular complaints, and nods normally.

"Oh. If it's a request we can do something about... You're not gonna tell me that, are you, like, bring down a Rank A monster?

If so, I go down… Ray nods to Alogan, who tells him otherwise.

"I don't think it's that dangerous of a request. It's an escort."

"... escort?

I guess I didn't think the word escort would come out of Ray's mouth. Cullot and Arogan gaze at Ray and Marina with a loose look between them.

"I'd also like to talk more about the area... shall we go to the dining room around there for a moment? You shouldn't talk to a lot of people, right?

"Can the Alliance Master make a request not to pass the Alliance?

For Cullot, a marina was a presence on the cloud.

That's why it's a polite language, unlike the usual tone.

But the marina, talked to like that, had a glossy grin.

That's the kind of grin that even a woman accidentally dyes her cheeks red.

"It's okay. Because I'm just an adventurer now. Even if you're a former guild master."

Being taken to such a marina, the Rays enter the dining room, a short distance from the guild.

Some customers are in, but it's probably because it's only before noon. The table was quite empty.

"There you are. Are you eating?

An employee of the store looks at the Rays and asks.

I got a slightly surprised look at Marina, but it quickly disappears and asks with a loving grin.

"I want to eat lightly, so prepare it appropriately. Oh, I'd love a drink."

The marina tells her with a laugh as she hands over a few pieces of silver coins to the clerk.

The moment he sees that grin, the clerk rushes to open his mouth when he receives the silver coin with his face bright red.

"Duh, please use wherever you like. I'll have it ready in a minute."

With that said, the clerk man heads straight to the kitchen.

A few pieces of silver coins and a somewhat multi-eyed marina, but that's an amount that means renting a seat.

... Still a little too much.

That's how I got to the table, and Alogan opens her mouth so she couldn't wait.

"So, Ray. What do you mean, escort? It's not your escort, is it?

I don't suppose that's what it's all about, but Alogan tells him that like a joke.

In fact, Alogan doesn't think that it's just a talk and Ray needs an escort.

That was the same for Cullot as well as Allogan, and even his gaze at Allogan, who had said such a thing.

These two have taken the rank-up exam with Ray and have shown their strength to no greater extent.

I couldn't possibly have thought that Ray would need an escort like that.

... No, there may be times when you are sick or something makes you weak and want an escort, but as far as this is concerned, Ray doesn't look weak.

If so, whose escort? and the next thing Alogan and Cullot's gaze was directed at the marina with Ray.

But I also know it's a stronger vibe than we are just looking at it.

That seems to be the right thing to do, to have ourselves escorted instead of being escorted... like that.

"Oh. Actually, I'm having a little trouble right now."

In that word, Allogan gives a disgusting look.

Of course, I understood that there was something more wrong with this case than I had told myself this time.

But still, if this is how they hear there's actually a problem, I have to think a lot of things.

I guess that wasn't just Allogan, and so was Cullot.

Open your mouth, showing a little vigilance.

"Let me ask you something, but that problem is a substitute we can do something about, right?

"Uh... right. I don't think it involves the problem itself. It's an escort for you, but only just in case."

"Just in case?

"Oh. The guy you're about to escort, he was raided a while ago. I warned the person I think has been making that raid, so I think it's all right now. But it's not for sure, and he's actually been attacked once. In that sense, just in case."

"Wow, it just feels like trouble to hear something"

"Really? In the end, like I said, I don't think there's a raid, but it feels like it's just a precaution. I don't think it's actually gonna be a fight."

"That's just Ray's perception, isn't it? I'm having a little trouble putting that on us."

It's not a rush or anything, and Cullot squeaks like he's really in trouble.

We have only made a number of requests over the past few years, and we have some confidence in our skills.

But I also knew that the difference with Ray was something I couldn't really fill.

In the first place, it's not normal but incredible to run up to Rank B Adventurers in just a few years after signing up for the Alliance and have even more aliases.

"Even if they say so.... What do you think of the marina?

"Are you asking me here? Oh, thanks."

Just to thank the clerk for bringing fruit and fruit water with him, such as fruit and sausage, the marina opens her mouth with a little thought.

"This time, Ray said, but only just in case, the side is strong. So I guess the Rank D Adventurer would be fine, huh?

"... Let's take it on"

"Hey, Allogan!? What are you talking about all of a sudden!

Allogan suddenly nods at the marina description.

If you look at those thin, red-dyed cheeks, you don't have to wonder why you took on this request.

With such an abominable look at Allogan...... So Cullot, who considered Allogan to be all kinds of unsavory if left alone, took on a request from Ray in a sigh.
