"Seto!
Those around me were up for sudden sounds and shocks... and it was still Mireine who was the first to go into action in them.
I lowered Seto's cage to the ground... by dropping it, I was able to see Seto from the ground, and I discovered Seto in the sky first.
Mileine had sensed from the ringing she had heard earlier that it was Seto who was approaching.
I guess that's why we were quick to get to the next action this way.
Two of Mileyne's companions, Sulnin and Ekril, don't look particularly surprised to see Mileyne like that.
Unlike other faces, it was because he understood that Mileine's sense of smell for Ceto was sharp.
Against Mileine like that, the other escorts... one of the envoys who was getting off the carriage is just turning a blind eye.
It was noisy that it was Ceto, but I guess I never really thought it was Ceto.
No, that info...... the guy in the mission who was listening to the Rays exist is quick to return it to me.
"Not the enemy! That's Seto, Ray's obedient devil in deep red, which you all know! I repeat, not the enemy! I won't allow you to attack Seto!
To the words of the man who cries out, the adventurers, other than the scorching wind, finally unravel.
Still, just in case... I really do try to be able to deal with it as soon as something happens.
Although it is the instruction of one of the escorts, it is because I cannot really feel safe until I confirm with my own eyes whether the flying griffon is actually Ceto.
Of course, I don't think a high-ranking monster like Griffon is around.
The man in the mission relieves himself as he watches the adventurers like that.
(Good. Now you don't have to be mad at Serena or Chrome)
It would be like attacking Seto by your own order here, just knowing that the wife and son who remain in the gilm are about to adore Seto... what happens if that is known to the wife or son.
That's obvious without even thinking about it.
I was usually a sweet wife, but being scared when I got angry I knew her well from being a lover and getting married to being a couple.
A man who reassures himself from the bottom of his heart that he's glad it didn't happen like that.
At the end of such a man's gaze, two women show up from inside Seto's cage.
Both of them are beautiful enough to deserve the expression of extinction... naturally the man in the mission also knew who it was.
One is Marina, former Guildmaster of the Guild.
And the other, Elaine, with the alias of General Princess.
Both of them are definitely important people to call from the Guild.
Whichever way you call it...... a short distance away from the man who is so lost, there was a sight to be called an inspiring reunion in a way.
"Seto, Seto, Seto! How have you been? Are you hungry? Aren't you tired?
Ask Mireine as she strokes its body against Seto, who has come down to earth.
"Don't say bad things about people. And I don't think I'm feeding Seto anything."
"Oh, my God, stay with Seto all the time.... Sometimes I think you can have me with Seto"
Embracing Seto's neck, Mileyne tells Dewy of her dissatisfaction with Ray as well.
But if you try to make that dissatisfaction a bumped ray, it's not strange to feel unreasonable.
"Even so. Seto's my squire in the first place, so you deserve to act with me, don't you?
"Gu... how cowardly of you to tell the truth here"
"No, why are you so cowardly to tell the truth?"
"Gru."
It was Mileyne who tried to say something more to Ray, but as soon as Seto rang his throat, he became enthusiastic about the act of loving Seto, not Ray.
Ray, who looked at Mileyne like that, reminds me of a bunch of women he leads.
Though we now have the means to travel as carriages, when there were many walkers, many women... including women and men in the resistance, have survived the hard times by being encouraged by Seto's adorability.
In fact, even when Ray and the others said they were leaving to rendezvous with this mission, many people gave the expression that they missed Seto more than Ray was gone, so it's easy to see how much Seto loves him.
But... what happens if Mileyne is added to it?
Ray can half-expect the ending.
In fact, I'm on the same level as Mileyne in the sense of being a Seto lover, because a person named Johanna is close to Mileyne and the dog monkey.
I mean, what happens if you take Mileyne and rendezvous with the other group... if that's what you do poorly, can it even be a battle to wash blood with blood?
Thoughtful Ray there, his spine suddenly gets cold.
(At least the salvation is that Mileyne is a mission escort and we're on our way to Gilm. Acting together shouldn't be that long. Gotta be...... nice)
A man who was talking to Marina and Elaine approaches Ray as Ray thinks that there won't be a set-to-fight fight somehow.
No, should I describe them as men, to be exact?
Until now, the faces of the other missions that were in the carriage for the sake of danger came out of the carriage, judging it safe.
"Ray, give me a second."
That's the first person who got out of the carriage earlier.
He's about forties old, and he's got a tough look on his face one way or the other.
"Uh..."
"Oh, you're late to say hello. I'm Ronitas. It takes the form of the head of this mission."
"Well, you are. I'm Ray. I think I know, but I was in the Labourina country first, following a request from Master Dusker."
"Master Dusker told me about the matter in advance.... I just heard from Elaine and Marina that it's been a lot of nasty events?
Nor did he seem to care about things like verbality or age difference, and Ronitas tells Ray so with a grin.
But I guess that's natural, too. Ronitas' position is only that of one of Dusker's best men, compared to Ray's aliased high-ranking adventurer... because he also subjugates high-ranking monster Griffon and parties with such high-ranking talents as Elaine, Marina and Vihera.
... There was no name for Bühne in Ronitas' mind right now, because sometimes Bühne isn't that noticeable, and he's really technically inferior to other faces.
Either way, Ray, Ronitas, and if Dusker had to choose between them, it was definitely because the perception that Dusker would choose Ray was in Ronitas.
For better or worse, Gilm is a city with a bunch of skilled adventurers, and it's big that Ronitas is used to that sensibility as well.
"Right. Hey... No, it's gonna be pretty awesome."
We take nearly a thousand human beings to the Guild, and they are not particularly accustomed to traveling, so it cannot be said that it is very easy.
"Apparently. I'm going to talk to Master Dusker about it, so come with me, Ray. When something happens, you'd better be there. And..."
Once out of words there, Ronitas turns his gaze to Mireine, who loves Seto.
Ray follows that gaze too, but I quickly understood what he wanted to say with it.
(As long as Seto is around, Miraine is useless, right? No, should I say I won't have to be on guard around you because I have Ning Lo Seto?
Either way, given the current situation, it's not very good, but it doesn't make sense to keep moving, and the Rays move the carriage slightly off the street.
If anything happens, just so we can deal with it right away.... and not to attract the attention of those who pass through the streets.
Seto cages can be stored in mysteries, but carriages can't do that.
No, I could do it if I wanted to, but I would be right to think of the mission's position and not be able to imitate it like that.
"Here or this one itches?
Mileine, too, strokes Seto - scratching him to be exact - and walks toward the moving one of the carriages.
Seeing Mileyne like that, many of the guards besides Sulnin and Ekril have a surprising look on their faces.
If you make yourself unfamiliar with Mileyne, you're looking at her differently as a regular arm-woman adventurer... and that's what Mileyne looks like today, one of the best adventurers among young people.
Only Mileyne, who also has a neat face, would have liked to have approached you at the request of this escort if she could... many have lost their minds if they saw Mileyne, who adores Seto now.
While watching the men interact, what impressed Ray was the horse holding the carriage.
I heard from Dusker that someone had left earlier than the Rays, and even more so that the carriage could get off at considerable speeds, but the horse carrying the carriage said Seto was nearby, but it didn't look particularly violent or frightening.
Many of the horses carrying carriages prepared by Guimecama are still afraid of Seto.
By comparison, that was definitely the horse that had been trained as rigorously as the horse carrying Elaine's carriage.
(Well, no matter how many carriages had high performance and special abilities, if the horse capable of towing it was a low barn, it wouldn't make sense.... Ningro, if you think about what you've come from Gilm, not a horse, but a thamed monster or something. But it's not weird.)
He was Ray, who looked at the horse without any fright when he saw Seto, but Ronitas from the mission called him over to you.
Nearly ten people gather near the carriage, starting with Ronitas.
All of them have come as a mission, surely, given that we are here on this occasion.
"Ray, the general situation is easy, but we talked about it."
"... you're early"
Isn't that exactly what you're going to explain? I thought it was Ray, but I didn't think you could explain it to me first.
But if you were told that either Marina or Ray could explain the situation in the end, you'd think that Marina, even Ray, could speak more accurately.
"You'd better hurry, wouldn't you? So, we're going to be in touch with Dusker now. Elaine."
"Uhm."
Elaine, who is gazed at by the marina, nods small and takes out the pair of orbs to start.
Then, in seconds, Ara was shown in that pair of orbs.
"Dear Elaine!
"Ara, you look fine. Above all."
Speaking a word or two with Arla, who shouts Elaine's name with delight, Arla disappears from the orb against her immediately.
As of yesterday, the conversation was already through, so I guess I went to get Dusker.
Usually, daylight is a busy time for Dusker, but one of the things the Rays are involved in is something that makes a huge profit for Gilm as well.
In about a few minutes, Dusker puts his face in the orb of a pair.
It is naturally the Lonitas who were surprised to see such a Dusker.
As for the pair of orbs, it was the first time I had heard the story but seen it in person, and I guess it still surprised me that Dusker was shown on it.
If this were Ray, it wouldn't have surprised me that much from my experience when I was in Japan, but it's very rare to have such a performance magic item in this Elgin.
"Ronitas? Apparently, you made it with Ray and the others."
"Yes. So, um... I heard from Master Marina, is that true?
Lonitas also calls the Guildmaster Marina after many years in the Guild of Guilds because he couldn't be called out.
... Most likely, the reason also has a lot to do with who Marina can be strong against Dusker.
'Oh, it's true. As you know, there's a lot going on with Jaya. You hear what's going on around here?
"Mostly. But I don't think retaliation can lead to such behavior..."
It was a cloudy Ronitas, but so were the faces of the other missions around... No, on the contrary, even the escorts listening only had to agree with Ronitas.
Who in the world would think that just retaliating against a criminal organisation would take thousands of people on a journey from Mejougo to Gilm?
Most of all, I think that's why it's a Rank B party... and everyone on the spot exchanges information.
