Legend

With spring soft sunshine and breezes with warmth...... a loud voice echoes in the forest of Trento.

"Ta - I'm coming -!

With that word, the sound of the trees roaring around...... eventually falling.

Those who were surrounded by trees and adventurers distance themselves from being caught in their falling trees.

Only close to the side of the street is the place where the crowd and adventurers are yet to be covered in trees.

From the outside of the woods, there are currently a large number of tree loggers and adventurers.

The size of the outside of the forest is considerable, and even if there are more than fifty people in all, or adventurers, it doesn't feel narrow at all.

On the contrary, there is still room for space.

"Even if we cut it with this, the trees will grow again tomorrow, won't they? This forest is like heaven."

"I understand. I understand. Besides, there are no monsters or animals in these woods."

"Besides, you don't have to dry this tree, do you?... That helps"

"Oh, did Graeme take the tree he cut before to the goblin?

Called Graeme, the bamboo nods bitterly.

"Uh, yeah. Corner of the tree I cut...... if you go the next day, the goblin will cut you a branch and make you a stick or something, you'll cut the tree in half funny...... oh just remembering now makes me angry!

You're getting angry at what you're describing, Graeme clenches the axe pattern thoughtfully.

It's a good tree, definitely of good quality even as wood, and it would be naturally frustrating because it ruined what I thought could be sold high.

"Well, calm down. Look, anyway, there's no one in this Trent forest like me to plunder a cut tree. And the trees, the adventurers will carry them, won't they?

He opens his mouth as he watches his surroundings on his side as he tells him to calm down his frustrating graeme.

"Oh, I know that. Ray, right? I've seen it in the Guild a dozen times."

"Hehe, I've stroked Ray's squire ceto before, haven't I?

"I used to feed you dried meat!

For some reason, I go from talking about Ray to talking about how much food I did to Seto.

I guess I decided I couldn't collect it as it is. One of the crooks screams out loud.

"Ooh, keep the story around there! Besides, if we take a short break, we'll get to the next tree! It's only while we're at work!

Following those words, the talkers turn to the next tree.

Even the next tree is the one right next to the fallen tree.

That's how when the sound of an axe slamming against a tree trunk echoed around...... Sleisha was in a shallow position in the Trento forest with Luno.

"Try this, you don't have a monster or an animal figure after all. Just..."

Luno turns his gaze to the tree growing right in front of him.

I can confirm that Luno's eyes, which have demonic eyes that see magic, contain some but magic in the trees that grow in this Trento forest.

From Luno's eyes it was clear that these trees were not ordinary trees.

Also, the place where Luno and Sleisha and the others are is near the street... not so far from where the third eye disappeared either.

But even the demonic eye of Luno could not feel what should be called the heterogeneity of this Trento forest.

I can feel it exactly, but I would be right to express that I don't know where the cause of that heterogeneity is.

"Mr. Luno, what's wrong?

Whenever anything happens, Sleisha, with her bow in her hand so that she can react immediately, asks, but Luno shakes her neck to the side.

"No, there are a lot of suspicious things about this forest, but I think it's a little hard to find where..."

"Really... can't you find Mr. Luno..."

Sleisha squeaks in disappointment.

If you are a runo with demonic eyes that see magic, you will discover the secrets of this Trent forest... and the monster who killed your people.

Because I had such hope.

This time, the explanation given by the Alliance before receiving the request was that no monsters had been confirmed in this Trent forest.

When you hear that, naturally Sleisha is stupid! And that's how I almost screamed... before I uttered that voice, stopped by Luno.

In fact, I guess that was right.

If you had yelled that out when you heard the explanation, you would have definitely stood out in a bad way.

That would undoubtedly hinder future investigations as well.

If you think that Luno and I can be in the Trento Forest in this way because we put up with it at that time of explanation, the anger in Sleisha also calms down a bit.

Most of all, even when we came into the woods like this, as I was really explained in the guild, it was unexpected that there were no monsters or one of the animals.

I had also heard how Ray had been looking into Trent's Forest, but I wondered if that was just a coincidence, and yes Sleisha thought.

If he can think calmly, Ray seems to know that Griffon can't possibly miss a monster anyway, but Slasha can't afford to admit it right now.

"Well, it doesn't necessarily mean you can find any clue as soon as you get here today, does it? Mostly, this is how I came and found out, but there really aren't any monsters or animals here. We were hired as escorts, but we have plenty of time to find out."

Of course, monsters and animals aren't the only ones Luno and the others escort.

It's rare around the Guild, but it's not like there's any chance of bandits coming out.

Given the neighborhood, there's no reason not to provide a complete escort.

(Ma, many of the other adventurers are on the side of the crowd. Given that, I guess I don't really have to worry about the escort work.)

If you cut a tree, that's all you get.

I'm also slightly worried that I will neglect the escort because I'm too focused on it, but this request has a rank limit in the first place.

The owner of a rank who could participate in this request...... Luno trusted that if he were an adventurer of rank C or better, he would not imitate such a fool.

Some of the adventurers who received this request had just come to Gilm, but likewise many were familiar.

However, I am certain that the safety of the guards will be ensured for the time being.

"Hmm?"

In the meantime, Furuno raises his voice.

Sleisha, who had hoped for Luno's demonic eye, hears Luno's voice like that and looks up reflexively.

Maybe you found some clue.

With that in mind, I open my mouth.

"Mr. Luno, what's wrong? Could it be something..."

"Oh, no. It's bad for Slasha, but nothing like what you expected right now. It's just that Ray's here."

Ray's magic is suppressed by the New Moon ring, but he still can't see it.

Not to mention Seto's... I couldn't have misseen Griffon's magic.

"Really..."

Unlike what I was expecting, Sleisha squeaks unfortunately.

But against such Sleisha, Luno talks to encourage.

"Don't you realize it's us, Ray or Seto? Originally... yes, they're special."

If I were supposed to, I guess I should be credited with being good at this place.

But...... Ray was more of an opponent to describe as special than to say he had good arms.

Naturally. Because in a few years I registered as an adventurer in the Guild and I ascend to Rank B adventurer, let alone even have an alias.

Such a presence is not the person to be commended in the words of being very, but good at arms.

But that doesn't mean I have something to think about Ray.

No, I know I envy you a lot, but that's about it.

I wonder why Rouno would want to split up around here.

"Right. Then... should I ask Mr. Ray"

"I think I should do that. I just don't think you have to ask Ray to do it right away."

"Huh?"

I say you can ask Ray, but you don't have to.

Not knowing what Luno is talking about, Sleisha tilts her neck.

Seeing how Sleisha looks like that, Luno opens his mouth again.

"It's a little strange to say the characteristics of Ray... but think about that ability for a second. That way you know what I'm trying to say."

"Ability, is it?

"Oh, yeah. You were bringing Slasha's buddy tools and stuff, weren't you? The fact that Ray has an item box is a fairly famous story. This is where the rays are gathered. That is…"

"Ah, trees!

"Sounds like you got it. And now at this hour, not in the evening or anything...... it's only been a few hours since I started working, but Ray's already here, which would mean I'm still going to be here a few times today"

If there was that ray on this occasion, I would have sounded surprised, even if somewhat, to see the conversation between Luno and Sleisha.

Basically, Luno only works solo and doesn't relate very deeply to others.

So I'm pretty sure it's surprising from Ray's point of view that he's giving advice on even simple things like this.

(Because Ray is confused, even if the wind tells me this is the last day, I'm not convinced.)

Luno has had quite a long relationship with Ray for some reason, and quite a few things he has talked about.

That's why I knew quite well what Ray was up to.

I wonder if Ray will come here many times today.

(I heard about the guild not having to worry about transporting trees, so I thought maybe I did. Well, either way, if Ray's going to help, there's nothing wrong with that)

It seems so, from Luno's eyes, that if Ray were to come, he would be able to deal with anything.

"Well, why don't you say hello to Ray first? Ray wouldn't even know we're here to escort the logging. I don't care what you ask for, we need to talk about it."

"Ah, yes. Ok.... And is Mr. Ray really awesome?

Luno is surprised by the words that came out of Sleisha's mouth.

"No, you know a lot about how awesome Ray is, too, don't you? I know that. That word comes up on top of that... honestly, what do you say?

"Oh, no. I know Ray is amazing. In the first place, you can't have an alias if it's not awesome. But here's the thing..."

After watching the words cloud, Luno finally understands why Sleisha thought so.

If you are the one who lives in Gilm...... not to mention the thoughts you do not hold first if you have acted with Ray.

But Sleisha has never seen a ray like that.

All I've seen is about Ray with the marinas.

If I had seen it even in the sight of flying on Ceto, the story would have been slightly different...... around here would be the result of various and untimely overlaps.

"Right. Then why don't you go check on Ray when he says hello? Maybe you'd be surprised.

During his war with the Bestian Empire, Luno sees Ray using mystering to carry large quantities of supplies.

In the sense of using mystering, Sleisha also brings the luggage that she left in the Trent Forest, but the luggage is not as big as she thinks it is.

As Luno has seen, if normal, for a few carriages...... no, the sight of dozens of replenishments going into or out of mysteries next would definitely surprise you if normal.

Especially since it was easy to predict that this time Ray arrived, the aim was definitely to take the felled trees... then Sleisha would be surprised too.

"Really?

Sleisha doesn't quite understand yet, she leans her neck gently but leaves the Trento Forest with Luno.

And eventually to the sight that came into my eyes… I had to open my mouth wide, open my eyes, and flash to the sight that when I touched the tree it would disappear in the next moment.
