"Is this building okay?

Look at the building in front of you, Vihera squeaks.

But I guess that's natural, too. It's there, can I describe it as a building... because it was a cabin that was so aging that it wasn't strange to think so.

The walls are also slightly peeled, from which you can easily peek inside.

That's the kind of building that, if anything, doesn't seem strange to break right away.

"You've often thought about hiding white gold coins in a shack like this."

"Isn't that why? You wouldn't think I was hiding treasure in a cabin like this."

"... I see. Is it safe to bury white gold coins on the ground in the only part of this hut that burns, even if there's a fire or something?"

"Yeah. If you think so, you're well thought out. It's just that it's not strange to be so worried about hiding such treasure in a cabin like this that anyone can go inside."

"Mmm."

To the words of Vihera, whine a loud voice as Büne agrees.

It's buried on the ground, so even though it's unlikely to be so easy to find, it's definitely not either.

In fact, if the sense of smell were as sharp as Ceto's, it wouldn't be hard to find it.

... Most importantly, Kana is quite famous in Slam Street and back society as a freelance assassin with quite an arm.

If you imitate such a Kana treasure, you could lose your life in exchange for a temporary luxury.

There will be no such thing as knowing it and targeting Kana's treasure.

"You can ask the person about it later. Now, anyway, just do what we have to do.... Seto, we're going inside, so look around. I don't think there's anybody out there that's gonna give us a little bit of a break right now."

"Grrrrrrrrrr"

To Ray's words, Seto rattles confidently telling him to leave it to him.

But that's what Ray thought, like he said, that there's nothing like someone actually coming up with a hand.

As a matter of fact, no one has been involved since the Rays approached Slam Street.

... Most importantly, given Ray and Seto's visibility in the Guild, that's not strange.

It is also quite known to have formed a Rank B party called Red Lotus Wings.

I don't want to be involved with someone like that...

"Whoa, whoa, look at that, buddy. There's a good woman out there, isn't there?

"Whoa, good lady. Hehe."

Unexpectedly, such a voice echoes around me.

"... there you are"

It was totally unexpected to Ray that there was still someone involved like this.

Most of them are in places like this. I guess it's not strange if you're not familiar with rumors and information.

(Still, whatever it is with me, Vihera, and Bühne... there's Seto, right? As far as those two go, I don't really think they have the strength to do something about Griffon)

The pair, who have been tangled up by the Rays, get the unclean impression that one is growing a beard from all over their face.

The other one is fat to see, and he's the one who's mouthing a creepy laugh while watching Vihera.

From Ray's point of view, it doesn't look very but strong.

(For a moment, just for a moment, but I thought maybe Precious had hit something with his hand... was it entirely my fault)

Look at the two of you at the end of your gaze, I don't think you're a very, but strong opponent.

At that point Ray loses interest and opens his mouth as he gently strokes Seto.

"Seto, I'm sorry, but I need someone from those guys. I don't care what you do if you don't kill me."

"Grrrrrrrrrrrr"

To Ray's words, Seto goes one step forward when he squeals.

Because of Seto's motivation, the two people who have been involved in the force, neither fighting nor killing, emanating from his body, leave without my knowledge.

"Come on, what is it? You think you can imitate us like this!?

"Right, right. You can't forgive me."

It was noisy as we finally understood how dangerous we were imitating ourselves, but Ray enters the cabin, ignoring those two words beautifully and refreshingly.

... Somehow, I could hear the sound of beating the meat to the ground from behind, but I don't even seem to care about it at all.

That's how you get inside the cabin, it's pretty old as expected, and nobody seems to live there to see it.

"Wow... that's a great place"

"Mmm."

"Right. I guess that's why no one thinks you're hiding treasure in a place like this.... That was this way."

Head to the end of the cabin, remembering the explanation from Kana.

There are planks laid there, pulling off some of them.

Then there were traces of digging, and when I dug lightly, there was something buried in the cloth.

"This is it."

"Yeah, I guess.... apparently it was true."

Neither did Vihera expect Kana to lie over this period.

But that's what I thought it might be.

That's how there really was a white gold coin, which makes me feel at ease.

If this did not have white gold coins, the promise that the marina would belong to the meadow wolves that she had promised could have also been in vain.

"Well, then..."

"Mmm."

Before Ray said anything, Büne, who was looking inside the cabin, groans briefly, pointing a little further away.

Near where the white gold coins were buried. There, obviously, traces of digging back.

Given that Kana's white gold coin was buried in this cabin, you won't even have to think about what's buried there.

"Uh... let it go. Nothing. We're not here to take all of Kana's hidden property. Whatever's buried there, it belongs to Kana."

"... n"

Even though I seem a little sorry, Bühne nods.

But Bühne is also a bandit, but that is only a classification.

I'm not going to get my hands on people's things or anything more than not being a real bandit.

This was also an action I wanted to take a look at.

"Look, I'll be there soon. If I could, I'd like to finish this by the end of the day."

"Mmm."

Following the words of Vihela, Bühne leaves the cabin.

The Rays followed it up and went outside the cabin, where there were two people falling to the ground.

You won't even have to think about who that is.

Ray glances at those falling two and strokes Seto when he confirms that there are scratches and bruises of sorts, but they are still not moving and dead.

"You didn't kill him very well."

"Grrrrrrrrrr!"

To Ray's words, Seto naturally! and honking his throat.

Such a chirp, as if you expressed the joy praised by Ray as it were.

Now if two men hadn't fallen on the ground, they could have called it a smiling sight.

As Ray strokes Seto for a few minutes, he eventually realizes the men who had passed out.

"Hih, hih!

"Ghaaaa!

In front of us is a horrible monster who attacked us to vanquish ourselves.

Ray, who makes that as if even a cat would be adorable, and Vihera, who looks at the Rays like that in disgust, the expressionless Beaune, and I guess I finally understand that the two men are not very but not normal opponents in front of me. He runs away screaming.

With no regard for such a pair, Ray takes out the white gold coins found in the cabin.

"Seto, this is it. The smell on this white gold coin... go after the owner of the smell if it's not Kana too"

"Grrrrrrrr"

Leave it to me, and Seto, who rattled his throat, activates his olfactory lifting skills to smell white gold coins.

And then I walk out the road, smelling the smell drifting in the air.

The first to head is not Slam Street...... but the road that leads to Boulevard.

(I mean Precious, so I didn't think it was weird hiding in Slam Street so I couldn't find him)

With a little surprise in the direction Seto goes, the Rays keep going after Seto.

"Where do you think you are?

"Come on? Normally, it would be some inn or something... but if the man who brought the request to Kana hadn't come out of the gilm yet, we'd be talking about"

That's what Vihera returns to Ray's words.

"That's right. I got through to Master Dusker from the marina, but I can't deny that he's escaping by any unexpected means. … and then there will be no clue,"

It was a sighing ray, but there are some expectations that that would not actually be so likely.

In the first place, it is very difficult to get out of the guild so that you can't find it because of the relationship between the junctions.

If you are a big player in the back society, you can do anything around it... Precious didn't even have that strong back shield in the guild.

If so, it was Ray's expectation that he was probably still in the guild......

No, I might say it's a hunch.

The thought becomes stronger and stronger when we see Seto going down the road without hesitation.

(Lurking in the carriage and escaping... normally the guards would find you)

There are means of hiding in barrels or something, but not so many people do that.

It was Ray's decision to say whether such opponents and Precious could work hand in hand... if he had time.

And now that time is the enemy above all... and at the same time an ally.

"Grrrrrrrr?"

"... no, I'll see you later"

Ray gently strokes his head at how Seto looks at a nearby stall.

I guess Seto, who was stroked in the head, knows that this is the important time. He doesn't even look dissatisfied and goes back to tracking the smell again.

Seeing Seto like that, some people try to be cute... but if you look at Ray now, you'll soon know that he's not playing with buying and eating as usual.

I didn't imitate anything that would make a little bit of Seto except for some people who couldn't read the air or the kids.

To that, although Seto seemed to miss him only a little, Seto also understood that it was now a priority to track down the odors that remained in white gold coins anyway.

Go down the road so as to cut off the untrained.

"Well... where do you think you are?

"Right. I didn't think it was weird to be in Slam Street... but apparently, that's different."

"Mmm."

Vihera answers Ray's words, and Büne nods as she agrees.

That was the same with Ray.

Slam Street is not a normal place to go in.

That's why it's a convenient place to be when you want to dazzle yourself out of the eyes of others.

But Seto did not head to Slam Street, even though the place where the white gold coins were hidden was just on the side of Slam Street.

If so, there is no doubt that Precious... the man who made the request to Kana is not exactly in Slam Street.

(Oh, could it be possible to deliberately draw attention to ourselves and take our eyes off Precious...?

Fu and Ray thought that, but whatever it is, it's definitely best to rely on Seto's sense of smell now.

"Hmm? Wait a minute. This way..."

It was the Rays who followed the leading Ceto, but I notice that the perimeter is a familiar place.

That's not so far from the guild.

It's not along the boulevard, of course, but it's definitely a busy place nonetheless.

As for the place where Precious stays, I guess it wouldn't be weird if it were normal...... I'd have to lean my neck if they told me that in the current situation, I'm staying in a dignified house like this.

"What do you think?

"That's what they say... you don't think Seto smells wrong, do you? Well, I guess I'm definitely in an inn around here."

To Ray's words, that's what Vihella returns.

(I say it's dark under the lights, but that's exactly what this looks like.... No, I still don't know if Precious is really here)

Ray walks as he thinks about what's going on around him.

That's how we arrived...... Inn still not so far from the guild.

Ray also normally knows about the name of the inn.

It is inferior to the wheat pavilion at dusk, but still one of the inns that falls into the luxury category.

And only a luxury inn, selling a high level of security, starting with security.

With that in mind, it wouldn't be such a strange story to have Precious in this inn.

"Well... let's go"

So he shrugged, and Ray took a step toward the inn.
