Legend

The second floor of the guild is a meeting room for adventurers.

How many large meeting rooms are used by multiple parties, and how many small meeting rooms are used by a single party or small group of people?

It was a small meeting room where Lenora took the Rays.

"You're a very responsible person."

"Ah, haha. That's right. He has a lot of intense personality, but I think he has a strong sense of responsibility"

To Lenora, who looks somewhere caged in her mouth, Marina leans her neck a little strangely when she hears it.

I guess I was curious about Lenora's deceptive way of saying it.

"What's going on?

"Well, I think you'll see. Look, we're here."

The same time Lenora's said it, those Rays stood in front of the door.

"Excuse me, Mr. Bistol. May I have a word?

"Yes. Can I help you?

"... Huh?

Doubtful voices leak out of Ray's mouth at voices heard from inside the conference room.

The voice I hear is definitely the kind of voice a man could describe as... wild.

Nonetheless, that tone is a way of speaking that reminds me of a woman.

Not very much, but it wouldn't be possible to say don't question it.

Neither has the marina next to Ray been able to hide the look he hasn't made in his voice but seems strange.

……

Ray and Marina gazed at each other silently.

Seeing those two, Lenora somehow anticipates what's going to happen... and opens the door.

Ray, who went inside through the door, received the image for a moment that the inside of the room was gracefully enjoying afternoon tea in some garden.

Most of all, enjoying the afternoon tea wasn't something like a nobleman's maid... although he was a man with enough muscle to tell from the outside.

While you look like that, for some reason, clothes are women's clothes.

However, even if it is naturally a woman's clothing, it is definitely very rare, although I can't say for sure that it is not the size worn by the person who deserves to call it a mass of muscle as Ray sees it...

"Ugh..."

It must have been some sort of natural for Ray, who saw someone like that, to groan so unexpectedly.

Although the marina next to Ray hasn't been on his face because of the obvious surprise, I can still tell from Ray that he's stopped moving.

"Alas. Lenora, what about the two of you? No, given its appearance, could it be the Red Lotus Wings?

For some reason it was a bistol who stood up his pinky finger and asked so, but the point that came out of its mouth was correct.

(Marina understands. It's famous for what it is. But... how did you even know that?

The current Ray is wearing a dragon robe hood as usual.

Seeing myself that I shouldn't be able to confirm my face, so I said I was a member of the Red Lotus Wings... No, it was unexpected that I could judge it to be Ray.

"Hehe. Red Lotus Wings is a famous party among the guilds. It's quite famous that Ray plays a major role, especially in the construction work now."

"... honey?

No way, you didn't think they'd call you for it. Ray stares at the person standing in front of him.

"Yiyan. If you look so hot, you'll fall in love."

Ning Lo, your appearance is thick.

Ray opens his mouth as he endures to say so.

"Well, fine. Call me whatever you want."

"Oh, then darling and... no, I'm sorry. Just kidding, will you stop looking at me like that? Because I won't say it again."

Instead of Ray, looking at the marina, Bistol tells him so as he panicked.

Until now, I had a personality that wasn't strange to describe as bold, but now I was letting sweat seep through my forehead.

That's all, I guess there was something to feel in the gaze directed from the marina today.

But even if Ray turns his gaze on the marina, all he has there is his usual grin.

Of course it is an unmistakable fact that is very beautiful.

Still, the moment Bistol saw Marina laugh, her spine got cold.

Is that a woman's - at least the sexual root - inquiry, or an overwhelmingly strong but late small animal inquiry... it is firmly engraved in my mind that I should stop mouthing that hand joke to Ray.

Ray, completely unaware that such an exchange is taking place, opens his mouth in such a way as for now.

"So, you want me to check on the material I've been reclaiming?

"Huh? Yeah, right. That's what you said. I totally forgot. So shall we go to the materials storage area as soon as possible? I'll deliver it to Gilm tomorrow, but if you don't mind putting it in the storeroom today, I need your permission."

That's what Bistol tells you, feeling like you're deluding something.

"Then I'll be excused for this, won't I? Oh, Mr. Bistol. If you can confirm the material, please sign here and give it to Mr. Ray."

"I get it, right? I'll take care of the area."

It was a bistol that received the paperwork and smiled while winking, but Ray, who saw it from the side, retreats a few steps half-reflexively.

"Ah, haha. Might as well put more effort into escorting Mr. Bistol from now on."

"Well... the people I've been with so far have been the ones I've been acting with for quite some time, so I don't feel like that right away... but you can't even say that when you think about work"

Bistol shrugs as he strokes the shaving marks on his beard.

So while I'm at it, I guess I have grief in my eyes because I'm saddened that some escorts have died from the bottom of my heart.

To what such a bistol looks like, Ray reviews just a few of the beings in front of him that Ray deserves to call a monster in a different way than he knows.

"Uh... the body that was in the place where it was attacked, but I burned it over here for once"

"Huh? Really!?

Ray nods back as he pulls a little closer to the momentum.

"Oh. It's near the street, and it's getting pretty hot right now. If you leave it there, it'll definitely taste bad."

"Thank you... thank you... I really wanted to do something about Atashi too, because I could only escape into the guild then anyway..."

Behind what appeared, Bistol was genuinely grateful to Ray.

At first glance, the monster can't help but look the wrong way, but his heart is thick in emotion, and his personality is warm.

Maybe I can say common sense......

Wipe your tears with a handkerchief removed from your nostrils and open your mouth, although you still have some grief in your eyes.

"So it's really time to go? It's already getting late at night, and Ray and the others are going to be busy, right?

"If you do that, it will help. I'm hungry."

"You know... we were eating when Lenora asked us to, and we were buying and eating a lot before we got out of the guild, right? Looks like he was eating something when he came back... so why are you still hungry?"

It was a marina with a shy gaze, but Ray responded with a small shoulder clasp.

In fact, eating a lot would be a particularly big part of Ray's numerous drawbacks.

Now Ray has no problem because he just has the fortune to call himself a big rich man, but if Ray was an adventurer with only normal skill, he could even have starved to death.

"Well, that's good. You say kids who eat a lot grow up, don't you? Oh, yeah. If you don't mind, in addition to the reward for this request, Atashi will have dinner today."

It was Ray, naturally, who sparkled his eyes at the word Bistol's luxury.

Of course, Ray has a fortune in mystering that, normally, he can play and live for the rest of his life... on the contrary, it's just okay to be reborn a few times.

Still, it still made me feel good to have it, and there was a chance I could enjoy a dish Ray didn't know about.

It was today that Bistol came to Gilm, so it was unlikely that he knew a store that was delicious and Ray didn't even know about it.

"Uh... that, Mr. Bistol. It's better to stop..."

"Oh, why? I put a lot of work into Ray this time. Besides, my friend Atashi mourned me... isn't this much to thank you for?

As he said when he met Ray, Bistol has information about Red Lotus Wings and, in extension, Ray.

However, it is only information as an adventurer and there is no information about normal attitudes to life.

Yeah, I don't know how much Ray always eats.

I can predict that if I had listened to Ray and Marina's conversation I would eat quite a bit, but I don't know exactly how much.

Not to mention that besides Ray, there is a presence in the wings of the Red Lotus called Büne that only eats unworthy of its body... and most importantly, I don't know that there is a griffon ceto.

No, of course you know about Ceto, but you still wouldn't think you're in the luxury of being a member in this case.

"... right. Well, if that's what Mr. Bistol says, he won't say anything from me. Just so. I would recommend a store called Crystal Pavilion if you want to be extravagant. It's cheap, it's plentiful, it's delicious."

Lenora introduces the store to at least as harmless as possible to Bistol's nostalgia.

I guess I didn't get Lenora's thoughts like that, but still, it's not that much of a Gilm store that Bistol knows about.

I had heard some talk from business associates, friends, acquaintances, etc. who had been to Gilm, but only to that extent.

That's why Bistol is happy to say thank you to Lenora for letting me know about the latest store.

"Thanks, Lenora. I'll get you some good cosmetics next time. I also use Atashi, so the effect is guaranteed."

"Oh, erm... ahaha. Well, I'm looking forward to it."

Even though I was told about the cosmetics that Bistol uses, what exactly is it like... I'm interested, but I thought I was scared somewhere.

But I guess Bistol is also used to the reaction of such opponents. When I wink small, I open my mouth towards Ray.

"Shall we go? We have to check the material first."

"Uh... yeah. Right, let's go."

I had a lot to say to Bistol, Ray, but I guess you understand that saying something here would waste your time again.

In the end, he didn't say anything more and took the marina out of the room.

"Right here, please."

Leaving the guild, Bistle and Ray, Marina and Seto headed to the material storage where Bistle was supposed to deliver the materials.

I guess the circumstances had already been explained through the guild. There was a guard figure there.

Usually guarding materials is a task entrusted to adventurers, but there have been bandit raids this time, just in case?

It's not exactly a bandit, it's some sort of private militia group, but the circumstances around it have yet to be made public.

Ray and his captives were the source of information and the people above him, including Dusker, were supposed to judge him.

Most importantly, according to what Ray told me from the marina, there was nothing that would be made public depending on who the person who set this up was.

If this were a country other than the Kingdom of Mireana, the story would not be so complicated.

That is the only way we can make a statement condemning the other country we have set up and asking that country to turn over the person who planned this case.

There are a lot of problems, such as whether they obey it or not, but it is still possible to blame the table.

However, if it was the hostile faction of the Kingdom of Mireana that carried out this case, it would be difficult to denounce even the table.

Of course there's no way Dusker can keep it that way, and I'm sure he'll retaliate in some way.

If you don't do anything and try to get it done, that's what Dusker is supposedly not fighting back no matter what he does, just more opponents reaching out to.

The Gilm of the Border is where the rest of us want it so much that they can get their hands out of their throats.

To avoid such imitation, it was necessary to retaliate firmly, even if not publicly.

(Ma, that won't matter to me)

Thinking that way, Ray is urged by Bistol to take out the material he was storing inside the mysteries.

... of that material, about 30% was something that Bistol could not remember, and it was a testament to the fact that besides Bistols it was attacked by private soldiers.
