The first to notice the Rays' presence was one of the researchers who managed to distance themselves from the giants and see what was going on outside from inside the building.

With the same size as the space where the giants were sleeping, there were even several buildings.

It's definitely about the size of a small village.

One of the men in his twenties who managed to find a way to survive while lurking in such a building found the door slightly open.

But there's nothing I can do to find just that.

Because there's a giant stuck in front of the door.

Giants don't have clear intelligence.

Titans... even though they have the appearance to call themselves huge people, they only have the same intelligence as goblins... no, if they suck, they don't have as much intelligence as goblins.

That's a degree of intelligence that wouldn't be any different from wildlife.

Why is such a giant stuck in front of the door?

If it's a wildlife, I wouldn't imitate it like that...

Either way, the giant acted like a gatekeeper, so he couldn't escape, and as a result, many of those here fought in desperate battle.

Even in that situation, I was the guy who was checking on what was going on around me, thinking that I would never get a chance to escape...

(Who was that? I'm pretty sure he wasn't a soldier in front of the gate. So the guys headed back to the giant's nest? So soon? Was there such a little guy in the first place?

The man stares at the person as he hides himself invisible from outside the house.

Even myself, I don't know why I'm looking at that person so much. I don't know... Still, I was wondering.

... Outside the house, a giant was walking with a bite in his arm from a soldier, but happiness or unhappiness never made a man realize it.

Concentrating on one thing would have been in the form of a researcher-like concentration where nothing else would be visible.

Either way, a robe figure at the end of such a man's gaze...... Ray takes a giant sickle out of nowhere.

And when you wave the sickle you took out, the next moment, both knees of the giant standing in front of the door are severed.

"To?"

For a moment, the man didn't know what had happened.

Naturally. A man has a deep knowledge of giants.

The flesh is strong, and the bones are even stiffer than the flesh.

That's the kind of blow that can't have lightly amputated both knees.

(No, before that... where did you get that sickle out of?... sickle? Hey, wait a minute. Could be)

It is then that the man finally understands who is at the end of his gaze.

As someone who could be a danger to Jaya, there's a deep red here... and that the wings of the Red Lotus of the Rank B Party are coming to Rossi, the capital of the country of Labourina.

And the fact that Deep Red has an item box was a fairly famous event.

If the item box is the only one, its simplified version is very expensive but it exists.

But by the time I had the Great Sickle, it was certain that the person in the robe was Ray.

A sickle is a very vicious weapon to look at, but very difficult to use when it comes to actually using it for combat.

Therefore, there are not many who use such weapons.

Although some people want to use it from the looks of it, it takes a lot of proficiency to actually use it if it becomes a battle.

That's what makes using weapons like long swords and spears usually stronger than using large sickles.

However, it was easy to imagine who it was at the time of using the Great Sickle.

And the strength Ray showed had something worthy of that reputation.

No, Ray wasn't the only one who showed strength.

The four people who came in right behind that ray also showed too much strength except for the smallest person.

If you look at the strength of those Rays, you decide it might help.

It is clear that it is not by chance that Gilm's adventurers have become more lost than they have been in such a place.

But still... it's a fact that I'd rather be saved than eaten to death by the giants.

(Anyway, good luck with that. I need your help to get out of here alive. If I survive, I'll do whatever I can. So, please)

The man prayed that the Rays would win somehow in order to survive.

"Next!"

He first amputates the knee of the giant who was blocked in front of the gate, slashes his neck off as it is and definitely kills it before launching an attack against a nearby giant.

Fortunately, the other side of the door was quite vast and there were several buildings.

With all that breadth, there's absolutely nothing wrong with waving a death size or a spear of dusk.

For that reason, Ray was currently fighting the Titans with a Death Size on his right hand, a Dusk Spear on his left, and his usual two-spear stream.

Of course Ray isn't the only one fighting, he's also fighting faces like Elaine, Marina, Vihera and Bühne.

"Violent, but that's how easy it is to fight!

Avoiding the giant's hand, which has been stretched out to eat its soft meat, Vihera uses claws stretched from her hand to slash and tear the giant's neck.

In places with black crystals, he was a giant who was able to heal the wounds lightly, whether they were serious or not, but unfortunately there is no black crystal here.

Most importantly, there was no recovery in the battle on the fourth basement floor, so it would be impossible to recover in such a remote location.

"There's not a lot of enemies, and don't!

Elaine wields a mirage, attacking the giant more like a slap than a slap.

The whipped mirage was literally acting as a metal whip.

... the giant who took it also screams in pain.

"I wonder what you're doing? You can't eat that stuff."

An arrow shot from the marina's bow pierces the body of a giant who was about to be devoured by soldiers.

Whether it's from pain or simply from impact...... the giant stops moving.

An arrow that was then shot pierced by both hands that were stopping the soldier from moving, and the soldier fleeing the giant sees the marina for a moment, but soon leaves the scene.

Naturally if it moves so flashy, the soldiers who were imitating things like fighting giants and running away... no, researchers other than the soldiers will get their attention.

"Who are you people! Reinforcements!?

One soldier asks with hope, not small.

I was sure it wasn't just reinforcements, more than it was the first face I'd ever seen here.

Still, when we look at the giants we were overwhelmed with, defeating them one after the other, we can be sure that they are incredibly powerful, not very much from our point of view.

It was only natural to decide that working together - precisely with unilateral help - was a top priority to survive this occasion, rather than being adversarily hostile here.

"Pull your foot in!

But still so much hostility... no, it was totally unexpected that I could be half-hearted.

Of course we understand that we are villains.

But I was wondering if we could work together on this occasion.

Most of the time, the soldiers are scattered across a swarm of giants.

That's what makes it so hard to get a vanity if you don't like it, even if they tell you to pull in.

As a result, the soldier, who spoke up to Vihella, backs up heavily... down toward those without giants.

If you ask me if I don't regret it, I would say I regret it immediately.

But if you ask me if it's more important to give back my life or my vihella, my life is still more important.

The soldier wasn't the only one who heard such a vihella.

It still barely survived, sounded natural to the ears of the other soldiers.

With a mixed gaze of contempt, contempt and, above all, disgust towards such soldiers, Vihella launches an attack against the remaining giants.

Naturally, other than Vihella, the attack on the Titans becomes more intense with the absence of a disturber named Soldiers.

Within not enough of that, the giant who was here would lose all his life.

"If the giant is this number, it's about the same."

Ray shrugs when he sees the last one smashed in the head by a dusk spear and collapsed to the ground.

When we make sure that all the giants are dead that way, we look around again.

(Thought a few times, that's really broad. In the first place, there's this huge space behind the cave... and there's a bunch of giants on a different path than here, isn't there? What happened... hmm? Giant?)

Two, Ray's gaze is directed at the body of a giant falling on the ground.

I'm right in front of you... No, there's a giant corpse.

And at the end of a different path than here is a massive... giant that would be over a thousand.

What if it wasn't a coincidence that this giant was rampaging?

"What's up, Ray? Weren't you supposed to make contact with the other side?

Ray turns his gaze to Elaine with a strange look on her face.

What's there is a serious look.

Why did you get there? and Elaine wonders, before opening her mouth again, Ray opens her mouth.

"What if this rampage of giants is what is happening to all giants, not by chance or anything?

"Become!?

Similar voices leak out of the soldiers' mouths as well as the Elaine who spoke and the marinas who have gathered in Ray's presence.

Naturally. About twenty giants, 70% of the soldiers who were here... no, about 80% were killed.

In that situation, it would have been more impossible not to be surprised if they had told us that nearly a thousand more giants might be rampaging.

(In the first place, what's with the sudden giant rumbling out?

Yes, by the time Ray opened the door, the giant was already rampaged.

Above and beyond that, I have no idea for what reason I stormed out.

Maybe there's another reason?

With a glimmer of hope, he speaks to a soldier a little further away.

"Hey, what made these giants storm out? Did you even do some weird imitation? Be honest."

The soldier gives a slightly unpleasant look to what was said in the tone of the order.

But that's what I see and understand in front of me about how powerful the Rays are.

We defeated the giant who had no hands or feet, without difficulty... without real difficulty.

That's what I mean, that we should avoid being in a sinister relationship with the Rays as much as possible.

Calm down, the soldier opens his mouth as he tells himself.

"No, I didn't do anything in particular. I didn't really do anything, but I just burst out of nowhere. If there's a reason, I want to know that too."

"... right"

I couldn't see the color like I was lying in my eyes, and I could be half sure that I was probably telling the truth.

If so, I don't need to waste any more time here now.

But if we did something like this to those with giants, there was a good chance that those on this scene would escape.

Thinking about it doesn't mean we're all going over there.

(Well, what do we do?... Vihera will want to fight the Titans, and Bühne dismisses them because of the issue of combat power. When that happens, all that remains is Elaine and Marina or if I need to stay here)

On short notice, Ray opens his mouth.

"Doesn't the fact that giants have been rammed here mean that giants could be rammed even where the giants are gathered? That, too, as far as this looks, is concerned that all giants"

"Stupid!

To Ray's words, it was the researcher-like man who shouted sharply.

Naturally, Ray didn't know about the man, but the man was the one who was hiding in the building and watching the giants.

We made sure all the giants were defeated and came out to hear what was going on from the Rays.

At that moment, it's impossible...... no, they asked me a story I would never want to believe, and I screamed reflexively.

"What about you?

"I'm a researcher about giants. … so, about the giant…"

He was the man who tried to keep saying that, but Ray pokes at the tip of the dusk spear he had and stops the word forcefully.

"I'm sorry, but I'm not going to be able to be friendly with you, so I'll be honest with you. Perhaps the black crystal broke is what caused the giant's rampage"

"Become!?

To Ray's words all of a sudden, the man could only open his eyes and mouth wide wondering what he was talking about.
