Ray, who helped Lutus, who was being attacked by bandits in the woods, interrogated the bandits and asked them where Azit was, naturally takes away the kind of treasure that was in that Azit.

... most of all, a small group of bandits called the Five. On top of that, it was only recently that I arrived around here, and I didn't have enough to call it a treasure.

Still, it is true that I have made some money from a few jewels and ornaments, a few weapons and a few funds...

"If you were a bandit around there, maybe you gave this ornament or something to the whore, or the whore who received it sold it... oh, no. But because of that slave collar, you told me that women like to be whores from themselves."

Why don't you just dispose of the ornaments you get?

Ray with that doubt, but whatever it was now, it was better to scout Mejougo from above than to think about it.

Seto already has a seto cage when he flies out of the bandit's Azito.

As a matter of course, no one was in the seto cage, but I kept more demon stones so that the magic wouldn't cut off, so I shouldn't have to worry about running out of demon stones while I was flying.

"Grrrrrrrr"

Fly out of the bandit's Azito, for a few minutes. Soon you will see Mejougo.

"Seto, raise your altitude just in case"

"Gru!"

Seto rattles at Ray's words, letting his wings flap for a higher place as it is.

It's always flying at an altitude of about 100m, but now it's one hundred and fifty... no, it's nearly two hundred m altitude.

At this altitude, you can't scout the ground normally.

No, you can look at the ground and figure out what's in the general location, so there's no reason you can't scout... but it gets harder to figure out where and how many people there are.

But this time Ray came more than to know the general placement of Mejougo and, above all, to see where the entrance leading to the underground facility was, and still didn't mind.

(We were talking about an entrance to an underground facility in the heart of Mejougo... is that it?

What Ray saw with his gaze at the center of Mejougo was one building.

It's not that big in terms of size, but there are several different buildings around it, arranged as if Ray were to protect the building he laid eyes on.

You may not notice just walking through Mejougo, but if you saw Mejougo from above, you couldn't hide it.

(Well, I guess you don't think about being scouted from above first)

In this world, where the very act of flying is very difficult, it did not seem to Ray that a small country like the Labourina State would be so vigilant against just a handful, including dragon knights, in Mejougo, which is not even the capital.

(Anyway, I'm pretty sure that building is considered the entrance to the underground facility. After that, take the road that leads over there... that's a pain in the ass)

I guess I didn't think about being scouted from the sky, but Ray also figured out that I was pretty strictly alert to opponents who naturally thought about sneaking into that facility from the ground.

There were several buildings on the way to the building with entrance leading to the underground facility, and it was necessary to do something about those buildings to get from the ground to the underground facility.

(Well, it doesn't make sense in our case)

Elaine and the others can all enter the Seto cage.

Think of it as a small number of people, but other than Bühne, they are transported in Seto cages with the fighting power they deserve to call themselves outsiders.

If you become the owner of more than a certain amount of power, the word quantity does not make sense, and on the contrary, in this Elgin, where quality drives quantity, the Rays suddenly appear in the middle of the enemy using a ceto cage.

That way of attacking would be enough to make your opponents hostile to the Rays feel hopeless.

I guess it follows the underground facility. Stick to the building, and eventually Ray signals that Seto's back is lightly tapped and that's enough.

To Ray's behavior like that, Seto leaves the spot silently winged.

Always, if Ray could stroke me, I'd sound happy, but Seto also remained silent because he knew he was scouting Mejougo now.

Just long enough away from Mejougo as it is, Ray strokes Seto again.

"Well, why don't you stop somewhere and store the seto cage?"

"Grrrrrrrr!"

Ray turns his gaze to the ground as he hears Seto squeal

It was the grove there, just near where the Rays helped Lutus, who was being attacked by bandits on his way to Mejougo.

Unfortunately, I don't see Lutus anymore, and I don't see the bandits.

(Perhaps those guys who approached me then have already moved in as escorts.... but I don't even know if Lutus is really a merchant)

He was a lutus with a look that seemed to grow up, but there was an anticipation in Ray that he was not just a merchant, called a sneaky approaching escort, an atmosphere he felt from the lutus himself.

Not that I have any conclusive evidence... but I have the idea that I will see you somewhere again soon.

While I'm thinking about that, Seto eventually descends into the woods.

But the place I got off was different than the one I ran into with Lutus.

"We'll be right back to Rossi."

"Gru."

In reply to Ray's words, Seto unloads the Seto cage he was grasping on the ground.... No, in this case it might be better to describe it as dropping.

Going straight down to the ground, Ray stores Seto's cage in mystering and immediately returns to Seto's back.

"Grrrrrrrrrrrr!"

Around, Seto's delightful squeal echoes.

Having a ceto cage is not that heavy - it's just a ceto feeling - so I don't have a problem with it, but the ceto cage is tense.

I guess that was really stressful for Seto, who likes to fly freely.

Not to mention, if there was someone in Seto's cage on it, it would have been different, but this time it's only used for camouflage, so nobody's on it.

And so, I guess the handling gets really messy.

(Well, it doesn't break to the point of cluttering up handling somewhat... don't you? It would be a little useless if it seemed to break in this much)

Ray thinks that way, looking at Rossi, who has looked far away.

Originally Rossi and Mejougo are about an hour away from each other.

If that's about the distance, that's what flies through the sky at Seto's speed, it's instantly movable in the literal sense.

(As a last resort, Seto attacks Mejougo while flying in the sky...... but it's a few minutes to Rossi, so the alibi is in place. Well, I don't think they're going to put that much emphasis on alibis or anything in this world)

While I think of moving the rock from Rossi and dropping it on Mejougo and coming back to Rossi to pick up the rock again... if that's what you're going to do anyway, that's what you put the rock in the mysteries Ray has and realizes you just have to drop it from above.

I knew you were thinking about not going down there yourself, Ray, but for some reason now it was pointless fun to think about not going down like that.

And the time is only a few minutes before we reach Rossi...... eventually Seto goes down towards the front gate.

There were quite a few people lined up to go through the process to get inside Rossi, but naturally, if you look at Seto, there will be many people who will be surprised and hardened.

If Griffon, called Reaper of the Great Sky, suddenly came down from the sky, it would be natural, too.

The guard in charge of the front gate was also surprised by Seto's appearance, but fortunately the guard sees with his eyes where Ray leaves Rossi with Seto.

That's why I was never surprised to see it like the others.

... Still, Seto came down a little far from Rossi's main entrance, and there was nothing like a rampage of people waiting for the process to get inside Rossi.

And if Seto goes down on the ground, many people understand that the griffon is an obedient demon because of the ray on its back going down on the ground.

In the gaze of such persons, Ray begins to prepare for the process of entering Rossi.

I see people in line thinking maybe they might be there... but there's no sign of Lutus there.

Time hasn't gone that far since Ray broke up with Lutus in the woods.

For example, I'm not surprised to see you here... and for some reason one of the guards is coming towards Ray.

"Mr. Ray, I'm sorry, but when you're here, the others get nervous. So I'd like to go through your process first, if you don't mind?

That tone is polite because there is also the presence of Seto... but I guess it's still a big deal that Ray is an adventurer with an alias.

Furthermore, in Ray's case, rumors are circulating that nobles will not condone even their opponents. … it is true.

And so, I guess it's natural to be polite with words.

Of course the response around here depends on the character of the guard, but at least this guard decided Ray should be in the city as soon as possible.

In fact, that's never wrong.

Although we all understood Seto was an obedient demon, the fact that Griffon was still nearby, a total stranger, was a good reason to fear.

If this was the Guild, many already knew the existence and character of Ray and Seto, and I guess it wouldn't have been that disturbing.

Did Ray also understand the idea of such a guard, nodding small.

"If that's all right with you, this one's a wish or a fulfillment. Procedural, please."

"Grrrrrrrr"

Seto also rattles his throat to react to Ray's words, and although the guard who was listening to it stops moving for a moment, he immediately begins the process with Ray's approval.

That's how Ray enters Rossi with his obedient devil's necklace hanging from Seto, as he completes the process, being attentive to those around him.

Getting inside Rossi doesn't change getting noticed from the surroundings.

It's just that in Rossi, Ray seems Seto is pretty much talking about it anyway, and some people who have seen it once show their faces saying they want to see it again, so Seto doesn't feel lonelier either than he does when he waits outside.

Most of all, Seto doesn't feel lonely when he's with Ray.

"What do we do, Seto? Straight back to the silver fruit pavilion?

"Grrrrrrrr?...... Grrrrrrrr"

To Ray's words, Seto gets a little lost… finds a stall a little further away and makes a squeal.

That stall was eaten by the Rays when they first came to the country of Labourina… and Rossi, the stall of Pergnan.

Although the dish called Pergnan is the same, the stall itself was a different stall from the one Ray used to stop at.

"Right, let's go buy some. It's a corner, and I want to keep as much delicious food stacked as I can."

Ray approaches the stall with Seto as he speaks of what he can do because of the presence of mystering.

"Ila..."

And the stall owner can't speak any more words when he sees Ray.

Besides, given that I'm not used to seeing Seto, it's not impossible either.

"Two Pergnans"

I bought two pairs of Pergnans like Taste before I bought them in bulk for now, and eat them with Seto.

It tastes slightly different from what I had previously, but that's not why it tastes bad.

Simply because that was the first time Ray had eaten Paña before, it took that flavor as the standard for Paña.

"Grrrrrrrrrr"

Delicious, he nods as Ray carries Pergnan to his mouth, too, to a throat-soaking ceto.

The spiciness is slightly stronger than what I had before, which adds more meat flavor.

Satisfied with the flavour of its paña, Ray buys all the pañas he has at present and leaves the scene.

The stall owner sees Ray and Seto leaving in such a way that he can't believe that all of Pergnan's inventory has sold.

But it's still afternoon.

The busiest day of the day. The day is over, but there are only a few more hours left until the evening when we will be as busy as we are going to be at noon.

To make more money today, stall owners will rush around to add ingredients.

... Thus, although Seto is afraid, Ray and Seto are sometimes known to buy large quantities of food from the stalls, and Ray and Seto were seen as superiors.
