After Ajas left to fight Goblin, Ray was headed under Luglno with Ilse.

Lugluno, who is not bad at arm's length and never comes out under high pressure and treats his opponents politely, became a typical role among nature and the adventurers.

Of course, some adventurers said they didn't like to get under their opponents, but if they asked me if I would do such a troublesome job by compiling negotiations with the Alliance or with other adventurers, that would have been no.

In the end self-esteem and hassle...... also and above all the fact that Luglno was liked by Ray was a major factor, and in the end everyone recognized Luglno as their representative.

"That, Mr. Ray. What's the matter, sir?

Luglno, who had instructed the adventurers around him about who was headed to defeat Goblin and who would stay and continue to escort him - please to be precise - was just a little surprised to see Ray approaching him.

"Oh, I need to talk to you for a second. This is Ilse."

"Ha, the... Hi, it's Luglno. So, what the hell is wrong with this lady?

"Uh... I don't know what to say. Actually..."

It was Ray who tried to say why he was, and Luglno was here, but Ilse opens her mouth to block Ray's words like that.

"Mr. Ray, let me explain this to you. You're here because of me."

Ray was unsure for a moment what to do with the words out of Ilse's mouth, but in the end I accept that if Ilse were to say so.

Also, I guess I figured out that Luglno also had some trouble with those two exchanges. After I finish giving instructions to the adventurers around me, I invite the two of them a little further away.

That's how he moves to a place where the other adventurers don't talk to him, and then Luglno opens his mouth again.

"So, is something wrong?

"Right, it's troublesome when it comes to trouble....... Ilse"

Ray prompts me to talk, and Ilse opens her mouth.

"Nice to meet you, my name is Ilse. Actually, Ray brought me here today because there was someone here who I thought was my parents' enemy..."

Tell him so, Ilse will briefly explain the situation.

Of course he didn't speak up to the profound circumstances, but still Luglno shows how convinced he is.

"Really, I was wondering why adventurers have suddenly been added..."

"Aren't you angry?

For Luglno... and for those who work in this Trento forest, it's like being caught up in a hateful commotion that has absolutely nothing to do with us.

It's no stranger to not imitate yelling at Ilse than Ray is in front of him, or to be at least grumpy. And yet, I wonder why you're so calm.

Of course, that would also affect that Luglno's personality is not as bloody as many other adventurers.

But that's naturally not the only reason Lugurno is so dear.

"Whatever the reason the new adventurer has been turned here, there are actually a few monsters in the Trento Forest, unlike before, but they were about to come out. If you think about it, it was convenient for Ningro."

Given that goblins are actually entering the Trent woods, I can't deny that word to Ilse either.

Naturally, it would not be interesting for Luglno to have had their own workplace used.

But I know that even if I tell Ray that, it's just stubborn, so I'm thinking positively.

"That would help if you said so. So, Ajas... we talked about it, and it seems to be Ilse's vendetta."

"... Really? Too bad. He was a good, serious, capable adventurer."

As the word goes, Luglno squeaks really sorry.

I immediately shake my head to the side and open my mouth again.

"So what happened to Ajas?

"I heard there was a goblin raid, and luckily I headed that way. Well, that's why we're here."

"I see. So, what do I do?

It was Ray trying to answer something to Luglno who asked so, but the word stops for a moment.

Because I realized the gaze that could be directed at me.

No, if you're just saying you can turn your gaze, you won't have to worry about it in particular.

For some reason, Ray knows that he stands out.

That's why I'm used to seeing myself.

But... the gaze that's being directed at me right now is a caged gaze of fear and fear.

And the person who turns such a gaze on himself in the current situation is limited.

(Now, you know, I forgot what I said, but if it was the glance of a sight I fell in love with that marina, I'd laugh a little.)

When I explored the signs around me with that in mind, I could see the Lord of my gaze moving away as if I had weighed its timing.

(Shit, I let you get away with it, well, in the circumstances, I'm pretty sure your gaze is Ajass right now)

Ray opens his mouth feeling signs of walking away.

"I'm sorry, just give me a minute"

"Huh? Oh, yes. Well, I don't mind..."

"Mr. Ray?

Both Luglno and Ilse nod back, bewildered by Ray's abrupt words.

Ray leaves those two on the spot and out of the Trent woods.

"Seto!"

That's how when you call to the sky, Seto, who was flying through the sky, comes down to earth without naturally missing that voice.

Those who are already familiar with Ray and Seto are still servants, some of whom are not yet very familiar with Ray and Seto.

Such people watched without concealing their surprises as Seto descended, who was flying high in the sky with a single voice of Ray.

"Grrrrrrrrrrrr"

Seto, who came down with a delightful throat, rubs his face against Ray.

Play? Play? and Ray opens his mouth as he strokes Seto's head complaining that way.

"I'm sorry, but it's another time to play. Now one runs away from the Trent Forest... no, you're back in the Guild, aren't you?

I didn't dare to describe you as having escaped here because of the thought of not upsetting those who work here saying anything far-fetched than not knowing about Ray and Ilse and Ajas other than Lugurno.

... but that would ruin Ray's next words, too.

"Follow that escaped guy. However, you don't have to imitate things like capture or kill. I don't know where he's headed...... oh yeah. If you want to head for Abu Ero, capture me after all. So, when you get back to the guild, I want you to see where you're going to run into it."

"Gru!"

A stroke of Ceto honking at Ray's words, he rushes up the sky with wings winged after aiding him as if that were a signal.

"... yeah?

When Ray returns to me, who was dropping off Seto like that, for some reason, he realizes that his eyes are strange to see himself and the adventurers.

"Hey, dude. Didn't I tell you I'd capture him or something?

"It was Ajas who left here, wasn't it? I'm not feeling well or something.... What did he do?"

"Wow, it's only a suicide act to piss Ray off or something"

I realize I'm having such a conversation looking at some of my own people, I remember what I asked Seto to do, and I get a look like ahhh......

But now that I've said something here, it's true that it doesn't make sense anymore.

Above and beyond, this place is not particularly deluded, but goes straight through the gaze and into the forest of Trento.

(Oh, but if you do Seto over there, you're gonna have trouble when I get back to the guild?

I doubt that, but sometimes it's better to see where Ajas escapes in, and most importantly, to be honest, there's nothing more we can do than have Seto flying away already.

... Although Seto can't deny the possibility that if Ray calls out loud, he will hear Ray's voice and come back with that excellent hearing.

"Uh... uh, go back for now"

Mumble to no one, as you escape the gaze that is gathering on you...... back into the forest of Trent.

There, naturally, the two still wait while Ilse and Luglno talk about something.

"Sorry, did I make you wait"

"Ah, Mr. Ray. No, I don't mind that, but what's going on?

To Ray's words, Ilse asks if it's any Ajas information as well.

But Ray shook his neck sideways, understanding what Ilse was thinking.

"I don't have any particular information on Ajas right now. I just asked Seto to go after Ajas, so you know where he got away."

"Huh? Running away, is it? No report to me?

Luglno is surprised by those two words.

Even for once, you are in a position to bring together the adventurers who are escorting you.

You must have been surprised to hear that Lugurno, with no say whatsoever, was gone from the Trento Forest on his own.

Most importantly, Ray realized that it was only natural for Ajas to escape.

If you get your eyes on yourself, and you're still in this Trent forest, that's what you'd think if you had the nerve.

"Don't be. Maybe, but a stronghold in Gilm... or a place like back in the secret Ajit. As far as I'm concerned, I'd like you to go to a secret aside if you can."

Ray's words I don't think about the possibility of finding Ceto at all.

Ray was an unconditional believer in Ceto, but he still doesn't think so without any basis.

I didn't expect to find a ceto flying 100 meters in altitude.

"You already know the inn you usually stay at in Gilm, don't you? Then I figured you'd want me to look for a secret aside."

Ilse even laughs and tells her, but drifting from that body is an awkward but not strange substitute to call murderous.

"Oh, that would help us, too.... but even over there is mine... no, you know what kind of character Ilse is. I'm sure you'll be wary of everything."

"If the other side is going to be on guard this way, I'd be happy to, too.... and what are we going to do now? If you let Seto go, you can go back..."

That's what Ilse said, but unlike earlier, she seems a little happy.

It must have made me feel close to trauma to Ilse to grab onto Seto's forefoot and fly this far.

The absence of Seto means expecting me not to have to travel the same way I would when I came back here to the Guild.

I was surprised Ray had a light change of attitude, but I guess for Ilse, that's all the time he'd come so far in Ceto was tantamount to hell.

In the first place, not many people can experience flying in this world.

There will be dragon knight-like beings, summoning magic contracted with big monsters, and taimed Tamer...... there will be several other kinds, but roughly so.

In that sense, it follows that Ilse had a very rare experience… for him, it was not something he could welcome or appreciate, although not very much.

"Oh, then I'm going to rent a carriage. Of course, I'll be back here once we get to Gilm.... Do you mind?

"Huh? Um, right. I don't have a problem with Mr. Ray and the others traveling on board, but I'm a little anxious to come back here just for you. I need to get an escort if I can..."

The number of adventurers escorting Ajas has increased.

But still, unlike before, it doesn't mean there's more room for the number of adventurers than more monsters like Goblin have come to Trent Forest like earlier.

It was Lugluno's idea that Ajas had gone home on his own and that he didn't want to reduce the number any more if he could.

Or so, Ray doesn't want to walk or run and travel to the Guild either.

If it's a physical issue, I can do it without any problems at all, and if it's just Ray, that's fine, but this time there's Ilse besides Ray.

Ilse, who was basically making requests like sampling, is not physically capable.

Above compared to the average person around there, of course, but still below the average adventurer.

And now Ray has to hurry back to Gilm as fast as he can, and he can't match Ilse's feet.

(Do you want me to take a dump?

It was Ray thinking that way, but Luglno opens his mouth before putting it in his mouth.

"Okay. If it's a number of people for one carriage, it's somewhat narrow if you divide it into other carriages, but you can handle it. Please use a carriage."

Thus, Ilse was averted from the risk of being exposed to the shame of being humiliated by a smaller ray on her back than she was in front of everyone.
