Legend

After defeating the soldiers in front of the huge gate, Ray explores what's going on around him.

It is naturally on the other side of the gate that we turn particular attention to.

If you feel anything unusual, you should see what's going on outside the gate.

I had intended to knock down the soldiers once there was no sound around them, but if for any reason I could see what the situation was outside the gate, it was possible that the enemy was waiting inside the gate.

Of course, even if Jaya's soldiers are waiting, I'm confident I can handle it.

But if a battle broke out inside the gate, the facilities in it could also be destroyed.

In other words, if there is something important… for example, research materials against giants or black crystals, it could be destroyed.

Also, I don't have any expectations already, but maybe there is some kind of magic item.

(Well, if that magic item was a replica of a black crystal or something, I'd never need it)

I remember when I touched the black crystal on the fifth basement floor of Mejougo.

The moment I touched it, I was attacked by a black crystal.

Ray also has no idea exactly how long he was mentally attacked by the black crystal.

I feel like that was just a few seconds, or hours, maybe days, months, years.

As a result, the mental attack ended when Ray, who regained me by the voices of Elaine and the others, activated the Red Armor of the Flaming Emperor to burn black crystals.

Still, the black crystal mental attack was something I didn't want to be doing the same thing again even if I tried it on Ray, and even with things like that black crystal replica, I don't think I want it very much though.

I was also thinking of destroying it if there was a replica if possible, than not knowing where and what kind of disturbance would occur if imitated to spread it around.

"Apparently, there's nothing wrong with that."

"Right.... Still, aren't Ray's Slapenil shoes performing better than before? Even though I was pretty dangerous to get here, it seemed like Ray could still afford to step on the air more than I could?

I guess you didn't have to use your favorite mirage to defeat a soldier-like opponent.

With her bare hands, Elaine tells Ray so.

To the words, Ray nods back honestly.

"Yeah... but didn't I tell you before that my Slapenil shoes were fortified?

When we talked in a pair of orbs, I feel like I said... to Ray, Elaine shakes her neck to the side.

No, I don't think so.

Regardless of the exceptions like now, Ray and Elaine basically live apart.

Such Elaine's pleasure is communication using a pair of orbs.

It also has a high original ability… above all, it has inherited the Enchanted Dragon's Demon Stone, and its ability has increased dramatically.

If Elaine cares about it, it's not a hard story to remember what Ray said.

To Elaine alone like that, if Ray talked about fortifying Slapenil's shoes, sometimes it's a magic item he uses too, and there's nothing he could have forgotten about.

Ray apologizes to Elaine when she finds out that it was her mistake about Slapenil's shoes to see how Elaine was doing.

Naturally, by the way, there is also such a thing as distance love in this world.

I do... but if I'm not a nobleman, I'm almost broke along the way.

Depending on the distance, it's not uncommon to take six months, a year and time if you do poorly until you get a letter out and reach the other side......

No, given the possibility of being attacked by a bandit-like presence along the way, you wouldn't even know if it would arrive safely.

It was very difficult to continue to maintain romantic feelings that contemplated each other in such a state.

(If you think about it, I guess it was right for you to email, phone, SNS, or Japan with that kind of thing)

With that in mind, Ray saw in something that distance relationships were likely to break even when he was in Japan.

... I guess it's Ray that something of that isn't something a friend tells me, it's TV info, cartoons and comics.

In the first place, Ray basically lived in the country, and it's a big deal that there was no such thing as a long-distance relationship.

Or that you were someone who had absolutely nothing to do with Ray, even if you were there?

"Ray? What's going on?

Speaking to the marina who came near the door, Ray shook his neck sideways saying it was nothing.

"No, if we open this door, I wonder what's over there."

"Really?... Well, I'll leave you to that for now"

Marina, who said she would convince him for now of the explanation that came out of Ray's mouth, turned her gaze straight to the door at the end of Ray's gaze.

A door that is made considerably larger so that giants can get in and out.

Beyond that door, Lutus had spoken of the many who had caused this disturbance.

I don't know if that's true, but I'm still certain that someone belongs to Jaya.

Then… and the moment he thinks so, Ray takes a distance from the door aggressively.

No, it's not just Ray. Everyone ranged from the door, like Elaine, Marina, Vihera and Bühne.

Because I heard a strong noise coming from the door.

That's the sound of that, as if you threw something to the door with all your might.

"... what?

For a moment we realized that we had defeated the soldiers who were in front of the door and thought that we had struck some means... but for that reason, the door doesn't look like it's opening.

On the contrary, I can finally hear something like screaming in Ray's hearing, which is human apart because the metal door is securely sealing off the other side.

"Well, I can't think of what happened to me..."

"I wonder what. I hear something screaming, though."

"Right. Something wrong? Like the resistance was actually sneaking in."

Following Ray's words, Elaine, Marina and Vihera mutter respectively.

Only the bandit Büne, who should have noticed the anomaly first, leans his neck with no expression.

Similar to Ray's body, which was made of a Zeppyr sect of technology, three other people besides Bühne had high abilities.

Elaine inherited the Enchanted Dragon's Demonic Stone, Vihera absorbed Ambris, a marina of blood muscles as a world tree witch among dark elves.

All three were, in many ways, bearers of special powers and still showed as much hearing acumen as Ray did.

"No way. The main force of the resistance must be devastated. That's because of the Giants."

"... but it doesn't mean all the main players were killed, does it? Then you can't deny that there's a chance that there's a survivor?

To the words of Vihella, yes? and Ray tilts his neck.

In fact, consider whether it is possible… and conclude that it will probably not.

"If something is going on across the door, just open the door and you'll soon know what it means"

To Elaine's words she tells as she looks at the door, she nods that too, and Ray touches the door.

If it was normal, it would have been a difficult door to open by itself, but if it was Ray who opened it, the story would change.

Press the inner opening door… the door begins to open, though slightly.

Moments later, drifting from the gap in the door was the iron rust odor that was also used to sniffing for Ray.

And how many... or more screams.

"Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa!

"Don't come, don't come! Don't come over here. Whoa!

"Stop it! You idiot! Stop, I'm telling you to stop!

"Stop, don't eat! Don't eat me. Whoa!

"Shit! I have no problem with defensive warfare because I have giants!? Who said that!

Such a desperate scream, like spitting blood.

Of course screaming isn't the only thing you can hear.

"Damn! We don't have enough troops! I didn't do anything to reinforce Mejogo!

"You can't help it! More than that, now just think about protecting everyone somehow!

"Damn it! That giant can't move from the front of the door!

"Whoa, whoa, whoa! Shit, get off me, I'm telling you to get off me! Listen to my orders! Oh, stop... don't eat, don't eat me, I'm sorry, I'm sorry... Mom, help me!

It was as if when the carnivore ate the little bird, the sound of crushing bones could be heard from the gap in the door.

Understanding what that sounds like, Ray gently closes the door that was only slightly open.

And turning around, what was there were Elaine and the others who seemed to have no idea what had happened.

What I don't understand is that Ray did the same thing.

No, Ray knows what's going on.

I wonder if the giant who was on the other side of the door is rampaging for any reason.

And instead of the force that sent reinforcements to Mejougo, I guess I kept the giant as a defensive force.

He has an overwhelmingly stronger flesh than the ordinary soldiers, and then he is absolutely obedient to those who command him.

If you try to be the ones left here, it will definitely be an extra user-friendly force than the soldiers around.

But... this time it totally went behind my back.

I don't know why, but all of a sudden the giants burst out.

Some managed to put it away, but such would be eaten and killed by giants first.

And the soldiers managed to stop the giants, and as a result, on the other side of the door where the Rays are now, there was a battle to wash blood with blood in the literal sense.

"What do we do?

"... I don't care what they say."

Asked by Vihera with her gaze on her, Ray wonders what she should do.

I didn't think it was such a development, and there was a slightly unusual sight there: Ray, who was taken aback.

Naturally. Until not long ago, the giants were placed entirely under Jaya's control.

I guess those beyond the door were also putting giants in their own living areas because of their pride.

But the giant suddenly broke out of control.

No, I didn't just ramble it out. That's what some people seem to be eaten to death, as far as hearing voices heard from inside.

"I guess we'll just have to help"

Dislike...... Really dislike, Ray makes policy decisions.

Beyond this door are those who have been involved in generating giants, they are told so.

More than that, I'm not very much by nature, but I don't think I want to help.

Not to mention, if you stand up and help such people, it's not very, but it's not convincing.

However... in order to hear information about giants and black crystals, it is necessary to live as a matter of course.

(I think you deserve to be eaten to death by the giant you created)

With that in mind, Ray turns his gaze to Elaine and the others.

There, there was the appearance of Elaine and the others, who naturally had a disgusting look on their face.

But even with an unpleasant look on his face, he probably understands that helping those inside is a necessary act.

I was getting ready to go inside.

"We won't have a choice but to hear what's going on from the people inside. Naturally, it's not funny."

Elaine was also dissatisfied because of her attitude, but she still thinks she has no choice but to obtain information.

I turn my gaze to other faces, relieving myself of that.

Both Marina and Vihera nod back at Ray's gaze, though they didn't like it.

Only Büne was nodding back with no expression, but that's not something else like helping those who are happily inside, it's just that, as usual, the expression isn't on his face.

Okay, let's go.

Tell him so, and slowly open the door that was really only slightly open.

Open only to the extent that one person can get through, and enter that room.

That's how the first sight I saw was exactly the sight I deserved to call Hell Painting.

Those who are scattered by giants.

A corpse that is eaten only in the upper and lower body and later is thrown to the ground if it is not of interest.

No, that corpse didn't have to taste any more pain or fear, so you might say you're lucky.

The tragic thing is that they ate a thousand pieces of their body...... still wouldn't have been fatal injuries and many of them would still have been alive.

Looking at those people, Ray packed an intermission with the nearest giant with the death size removed from the mistering.
