"Guruuuuuuuuuuu!
An oak-like woman waves her fist out of breath... but her whole body is just scratched already, and the movement is dull.
At first I had a weapon, but in the battle that weapon has also been destroyed by a blow from Vihela.
Still, you must be the one who fought a good fight for Vihera.
Even though all his companions had already fallen to the ground, only a woman similar to Oak still managed to fight Vihera while remaining conscious.
Although he already deserved to be called full of creativity.
"I enjoyed fighting you."
Avoiding the blow of an oak-like woman, Vihera briefly tells her to pass beside it, waving her fist gently.
From Ray's eyes, a blow that only looks like a jab.
But the blow is exactly like tipping the jaw, and the next moment an oak-like woman gets her brain shaken violently and loses consciousness.
I couldn't stand the blow of Vihella any more than it was in circumstances such as when I was already standing.
Falling to the ground unconscious, the battle over the gate quietly closes the curtain.
"Tired... you don't seem tired."
Ray, who was down the hill while Vihella and Elaine were fighting, gives him a cup with cold fruit water as he says so.
As Ray said, even though he fought hard, Vihella's face didn't look tired at all.
He also enjoyed the fight enough… is close to a very unlikely situation.
"Right. I enjoyed it to some extent... no, well, there are giants left, and now let's not say any more. So, what do we do now?
In Vihera, the battle with a woman like Oak must be over by now.
I don't have any more to say to my mouth, I turn my gaze to Ray and ask him.
Ray, who was asked, turned his gaze to the captive man before opening his mouth.
The man, whose gaze alone reveals what he is being asked to do, rushes to near the gate.
Running away like this for a moment? I don't think so, Ray, but it's true that there's no way you can get away with this situation.
More than that, I look at what a man does, wondering what he does.
That was the case with other faces, and I kept my gaze on what a man would do.
The door eventually opens as the man slams the wall on the side of the gate slightly.
Was Ray watching that, the automatic door? And although I thought for a moment, the door never opened even when I stood in front of it in the first place, so I had to lean my neck when I said if the word automatic door was appropriate.
(Well, this is probably a kind of magic item too... you don't need this)
This raid on this underground facility, which seems to be one of the most important in Jaya's possession, used hookers to create giants, which is the biggest reason why it is unforgivable, but at the same time it also had the purpose of depriving Jaya of the magic items in its possession.
Ray, who thought of many other magic items as… than having this many collars of slaves available, turns his gaze to those who are unconscious or dead by the door.
"Weird."
"Magic item?
It was Marina who responded instantly to Ray's words, whispered small.
This neighborhood is probably from experience because we've been adventurers for years.
"Oh. Jaya has a ton of magic items. That's not a mistake to look at a slave collar... and this door. But then why don't the guys who were guarding this door have one of the magic items, even though it was called the most elite of the jars?
In the words of Ray, everyone who was on the spot sees those who are falling near the gate.
And I understood that there was no lie in Ray's words.
Especially since it's tough on faces like Elaine and Vihera who actually fought.
A magic item is very expensive, but it has just the right performance for the price.
Of course there are people in the world who hate magic items, but such people are rare.
At least not all of those who are ahead of Ray's gaze hate magic items, which is very, very inconceivable.
"... Ray is right. That's weird."
Elaine agrees with Ray's words and squeals.
"I don't know what means Jaya is using to get Magic Items, but it shouldn't be strange to hand over some kind of Magic Items weapon to the most elite people."
"Oh.... hey, what's going on around there?
Ask the man Ray was manipulating the door.
The man is also one of the elites who guarded the building that led to the underground facility.
If you're such a person, it's not weird to have one or two magic items if you're normal.
Again to Ray's words with such doubts, the man shook his neck sideways that he knew nothing.
"And I don't know! In the meantime, we never got a magic item from above!
That doesn't look like you're lying to me, not very much.
If you're in possession of some kind of magic item in the first place, that's why you likely didn't have to imitate the Rays begging for their lives.
"... apparently you didn't lie. The door's been opened, and it's just fine. Do you want me to give you some information around here?"
Ray's gaze opens the door… and that's how the carriage is directed towards the aisle, which is as wide as it can pass.
The man, too, must know that he's in danger if he doesn't speak up here. I nod like a panic and open my mouth.
"Okay! Okay, I'll tell you anything! So help me!
"Well, let's start by asking... about the power of being inside this facility. And it's gonna be in this facility, about the entrance and exit outside of here."
"As far as I know, there must be a few more with the same power as them."
They, and. Even though it was not the way you called it to your own people, it was only natural for a man to want to say that he and the Jayans were different beings.
If you don't, it's probably because... no, no doubt now, even if it helped, it would have killed you eventually.
"As good as these guys, huh? Well, that doesn't seem particularly problematic."
As for the giant, anyway.
Whispering those words in my heart, I decide that I should hear them at the end when it comes to giants, and once again, I give a voice to the man.
"So, about the entrance and exit outside of here,"
"Oh, I'm sorry, I don't know."
"... let the jokes be around there, huh? You're alive because you have information. If so, if you don't have the information, you don't have to keep it alive..."
"Wait! No matter what I say in the first place, I'm just a soldier to Jaya after all! There's no way you have important information about the entrance or exit that leads outside of here!
A man who screams desperately.
Is the man telling the truth, or does he think he will be killed by Jaya if he talks about that entrance and exit... that Ray doesn't even know.
But still, it was obvious that there was no way a man would tell that information.
If you keep taking a man like this, you're likely to be betrayed where it matters.
Do you want to kill him? That's what I thought, Ray, but it was also true that the information the man had was important.
"Ray."
And Elaine, who came out as if to calm Ray down, calls the name.
"I know.... then next. What's going on down this aisle?
"Keep going across the gate and you'll be out where there are several rooms"
"Room? What room?"
"It's a lot. I don't know much about it either. Like I said, I'm pretty sure you're only one soldier after all."
"... I see. So, where's the kind of warehouse where Jaya keeps her magic items?
"I know it's in some places, but there must be a handful of warehouses in the organization that we know for real. How much the collar of that slave..."
"No."
Ray tells you to block the man's words.
"What I want is not a slave collar. Other than that... it's more of a practical weapon like the Devil's Sword or something."
It's not like you don't want a slave collar, if you have one.
Especially in Ray's case, he imitates it well, such as hunting it if he encounters a bandit.
Beyond that, because the collar of slaves is a very useful substitute for taking bandits who did not kill them to places such as nearby cities and villages to sell them as criminal slaves.
Still, in the end, to the extent that you have a collar of slaves, it's not what you really want.
"I'm sure there will be places like that, but I don't think I know if I'm going to be a pretty good part of the organization, or if I'm not from a specialist department."
"So you're useless?
"As far as you're concerned!
I don't want to be killed. Alone, the man returns it immediately.
If I didn't say it in one breath, it would be because I thought that my life had disappeared on this occasion.
That judgment is never wrong.
In the first place, it's because the Rays realize that they don't mind killing just because they belong to Jaya.
I'm just keeping it alive because I want some information right now, and if I don't have that information, I don't mind killing it.
The man, too, is trying to survive because he understands it.
"So, what do you know?
"Giants...... I know a little bit about the giants you guys are talking about!
Did you detect the Rays' strong interest in the Titans, or was it a coincidence?
Either way, the word out of a man's mouth only reminds me a little of the thought of whether I should dispose of the man that was in Ray.
"Say it. If that's what you're satisfied with, I can guarantee your life."
"Is that true? Well, no matter how unpleasant it is for you to talk about it?
"... oh"
After a few seconds of silence, Ray nods back at the man's words.
Seeing how Ray was like that, the man hesitated slightly... but eventually opened his mouth.
"This is something I've heard, and I understand you didn't confirm it up there."
Rays nodded at the man's words telling him that he couldn't wait to be killed for him to tell a different story later... the man continues his words.
"First and foremost, it's the hookers who are giving birth to the giants. Anything. They were originally brought here to give birth to the giants."
"As expected, huh? But how can you give birth to a giant? The whore here is only a normal person, isn't he? And his father... well, he could be human, he could be a beast, he could be an elf, he could be a dwarf, but he's still not a giant. But why are you a giant?
The reason for this was Ray, who was largely predictable, but still asks again.
The information we gathered was only from non-Jayan people, and we wanted to get it from Jayan people properly.
... but in this case, it's only information about people, which is not what Ray wants.
"From what I've heard, it seems the effect of the collar of slaves the whore wears"
"... if a man holds you with a slave collar on, you'll be hosting a giant," he said?
Marina asks the man to block Ray's words.
The tone is mild, but its eyes shine cold and look to the man.
He was a man in awe of Marina's words, but decided he needed to speak out somehow in order to survive, opening his mouth.
"Oh, yeah. That's what I hear."
"Anyway, if we ignore the will of the user and make him listen to the order, it changes the will of the user itself. And this much can be created, and we can give birth to giants.... Isn't that what you call a slave collar anymore?
I nod to Marina's words to agree with the other faces who were listening to it.
In fact, because I'm pretty sure there's just a little bit of impossibility in calling it a slave collar.
"It could be. But it seems to be true that there are many conditions."
"... Conditions?
"Oh. Anything, away from Mejougo... even if I let a man hold a whore in Rossi, it was a normal person to be born or something"
"I mean, there's something in this place called Mejougo," he said?
The man nodded silently at the marina asking for confirmation.
