Legend

After completing their consultation with Unchu, the Rays go outside through the tavern earlier.

Sometimes we've been discussing it for quite some time, and the time is already too late in the afternoon.

Then, naturally, the figure of those who were eating in the tavern had disappeared, making the tavern a temporary break until the busiest evening.

It was the Rays who went out of such a tavern, but they have someone approaching them quickly towards such Rays.

I was aware of the signs, Ray, but I accept them without doing anything in particular to set them up, beyond knowing whose sign it is.

"Grrrrrrrrrr!"

The owner of that sign...... Seto ran straight over when he saw Ray come out of the tavern.

It was also soon to come to where Ray was, only Seto, who had originally slept not so far away from the tavern.

... Most importantly, due to the sudden rise of Seto, who was three meters long, those who had kept Seto far away were quite surprised.

"Haha. Look, don't rub your face so much."

Neither does Ray feel bad about being sweetened by his precious partner Seto.

I grin happily as I stroke Ceto rubbing my face and body against me.

I can't see how Ray's face was thinking about raiding an underground facility in Mejougo until just now.

It was Ray playing with Seto happily from the bottom of his heart, but Elaine talks to Ray like that.

"So, Ray. What are you going to do today? Mejo...... No, we're heading over there for recon?

"Uh... right. What to do."

Ray worries as he plays Seto's opponent rubbing his face against himself.

There was a desire to find out in advance where the entrance to the underground facility was once flying over Mejougo before carrying out an ambush using a seto cage if possible.

However, there is no denying the possibility that we are alert to the sky by any means, even if there are no boundaries, only to the jars that can prepare or make their own magic items.

Ray sees that Ray had a pretty harsh look on his face, especially when Ray showed Unchoo the magic items he had deposited from Sharia.

Most importantly, the information obtained was not so different from that taught by Sharia.

In the first place, whoever was put on that slave's collar is sealed of his will.

No, I know it's not actually that big of a deal, but twisting the will of someone who doesn't want to be a whore and making them want to be a whore from themselves only seems to Ray in the wind of twisting his will.

I mean, once I can fit that slave collar, I'm not going to run away.

That's it, with exceptions like Sharia, where some kind of irregular occurs and the collar effect of slaves is gone.

"If you don't have anything to do, why don't you go? I don't think you can tell from the ground if you fly higher than usual."

"Vihera's right. Besides, I don't think it's easy to tell from the ground up with a ceto cage."

"Uh... I see"

To Marina's words, Ray recalls once again the performance of Seto cages.

With the ability to turn into the same color as the surrounding scenery, it's probably harder to find from the ground up than Seto is normally flying.

"I guess it takes a while for Unchu to get in touch, and I don't think it's a bad idea to keep moving for the time being?

If Elaine tells me so, I can't even say no to Ray.

No, I know you can say no if you want to, but Ray also wanted to make sure Mejougo was in good shape.

It's very different when you take a lot of action and something unexpected happens, than when you don't know what kind of place Mejougo is.

Ray also walked around a lot yesterday when he went to Medjougo to check the terrain, but he couldn't possibly confirm all the geography within a few hours of walking.

"Okay. Then let me do that. Fortunately, Seto is here, so we don't have to go back to the inn."

"Gru?"

You found out Ray called his own name, what's wrong? and Seto turns his gaze to Ray and rings his throat.

"I need you to fly a little closer, okay?

"Gru!"

Of course, and a ringing ceto.

Several people who were watching how things were a little further away rushed away to such a settling sound.

(How many of them have Jaya's breath hanging? No, even if it's not Jaya, is it possible that the great man's men in the Labourina country)

The fact that the Rays entered Rossi was, naturally, passed on to the upper levels of the country of Labourina.

Not to mention that many people in the upper levels of the Labourina Nation are connected to Jaya.

For such people, the presence of a high-ranking adventurer with an alias would be nothing but a disturber.

But even though we understand that we can't win no matter how we scratch ourselves, there's no way we're not going to check on Ray's trends.

No, we need to take an extra look at the Rays' trends because we don't have a winning eye.

Because if you imitate the devil and become hostile to the Rays, it's nothing more than ruin.

... If this is an ordinary adventurer, no matter how small the country, it can be managed by its power as an aristocrat.

In fact, that's how adventurers working in the Labourina country have dealt with it so far.

But Ray didn't taste good.

Such rumors are widely known when the name is known as a high ranking adventurer of aliases, and the hostile opponent, whether noble or not, tolerates anything.

If normal, there are many aristocrats who consider it a preposterous rumor, even if the aristocrats are told not to forgive them, etc., but in Ray's case there was the fact that he has actually raised his hand to the aristocrats more than ever.

Not to mention that the information is more footprinted as it spreads...... there are even rumors in there that 'Ray resents the nobility and likes to hurt and torture the nobility' etc.

There is no way we can let such a presence go wild.

Also... even more troublesome for the nobles, the symbol of the aristocracy, Elaine Kehler of the Princess General, was acting with Ray, making her unable to reach out in a far-fetched way.

It's noble. No matter what it is great for, after all, the State of Labourina is only a subordinate of the Kingdom of Mireana.

It is also such a small country, among the countless subordinate countries, which only possesses a degree of national or military power that is quicker to count from below.

If the nobility of such a small country were to do harm to one of the three great factions of the kingdom of Mireana, the princess general Elaine, the symbol of the nobility… that was definitely what flew her neck in the literal sense.

Also, although there are still a limited number of people who know this information, one of Ray's party members, Marina, is also a fairly well-known figure in the Adventurer's Guild.

And so far none of those who know this one are in the land of Labourina, but Vihera, the former empress of the Bestian Empire.

I guess I'm glad I didn't know about this.

(Ma, if the other one shows you the move, it helps this way... I guess Unchu is ok? Well, I guess the fact that you let us through so dignified means that you're probably working out some sort of countermeasure.)

Thinking that way, Ray breaks up with Elaine and the others and heads to Rossi's main entrance.

If we're going to scout Mejougo from above, it's because we need to get out of Rossi for now.

It wasn't like there was anything in particular to get out of Rossi.

If it's just Ray, maybe he got tangled up.

But seeing Seto with Ray, I guess there's no such thing as entanglement.

If this is the place where stronger adventurers are gathered, there is no denying that there were those who overconfidently intertwined with their abilities.

Once out of Rossi, Ray stays on the set and leaves the scene.

Regardless of the use of ceto cages to mislead the surroundings, there was a reason why such imitation here would be extremely unnatural.

(Come on, I wish someone had taken me. Well, I don't think I can look down from inside Seto's cage, I'm just free to be there)

While subtly regretting that he and Seto had come alone, Ray asks Seto to deviate sideways from the street on his way to Mejougo and lands in the nearby woods.

If this is a peripheral guild, we have to do things like monster alert, but fortunately this is not a periphery, even in the countryside.

Thanks to this, I was not particularly alert to monsters, and I was able to imitate such things as removing the seto cage from the mysteries.

Besides, there are bandits instead of monsters outside the border... near this road that connects Mejougo to Rossi, a place under the control of Jaya, the organization behind the largest forces in the Labourina Nation.

Banditry in such a place would be unknown or unknown to the public, and confident in fighting Jaya.

"... yes, I was thinking"

Ray sighs at the screams he hears.

Of course that scream is not necessarily the scream of those who are being attacked by bandits.

There are not many monsters in this land, and there is a good chance that they are being attacked by wild beasts, even if they are not monsters.

But... Ray understood that the scream was the voice of those who were being attacked by bandits.

Because after that scream I heard a humble laugh.

"Gru?"

Next to Seto's cage, what does Seto do? and honking his throat.

If Ray were a regular adventurer in the Labourina Nation, this would be a good place to run.

Originally the adventurers in this Labourina country were of low level, and there are not that many who can deal with a bunch of bandits by themselves.

Not to mention, I'm here to scout Mejougo this time, so it's close to suicide that causes the extra commotion.

But... Ray is here.

For Ray, an alias rank B adventurer, one or two bandits...... on the contrary, there is no particular difference between being ten or twenty.

"Let's go."

When he stores the ceto cage he has just served in the mistering again, Ray tells that briefly.

If you're the one you really have to abandon, Ray will abandon you here, too.

But now it was only natural that I wanted to help if I was someone I could help, more than not in such an imminent situation.

... Other than that, of course, I had the expectation that he would have some information because he was the kind of person who would cause a commotion on Jaya's lap, and most importantly, the bandit hunt could be said to be half Ray's hobby.

It's also a hobby that combines practical benefits: reducing the number of people attacked by bandits, and on top of that, Ray's nostrils get warmer.

Ray, who has such a taste, could not have missed his prey on this occasion.

"Gru!"

Seto rings briefly at Ray's words and runs through the woods.

Running where the trees grow, like forests and forests, is quite harsh for the unfamiliar.

Balance things like leaves, branches, stones, and nuts falling on the ground so they don't fall, and don't step on it where the roots of the trees are out on the ground, while thinking about the route you go.

Other than that, there's a lot to be aware of, but Ray and Seto kept running when they said it had nothing to do with it.

When it comes to whether or not you ran for a minute like that...... eventually you see a young man running towards you.

And from behind the man, five men with long swords and daggers follow.

At a glance, Ray knew what kind of relationship we were having.

No, if you look at this sight, anyone will understand it, even if it's not Ray.

It's not like there's no such thing as pretending to be attacked by a bandit and diving into their nostalgia... but it can't be done in such a forest.

"Over here! Run over here! I'm on your side!

The man, who was in despair when he saw Ray, finds a glimmer of salvation in the voice emanating from Ray's mouth.

If there was Seto here, the man wouldn't have believed Ray's words that easily, but there's no sign of Seto there.

He acted separately from Ray on the way out and should have circled behind the bandits by now.

"Huh!? Danger, you run, too!

He was the man who thought Ray's voice had saved him for a moment, but when he found out Ray was a small person and that was just one person, he shouted so.

But Ray didn't seem particularly concerned about the voice of such a man... he ran straight away and was mistaken for a man, and he was attacked by a bandit who was chasing him.
