"Oh, there he is."
"Grrrrrrrrrrrr"
When Ray squeals over Seto's back, Seto squeals his throat, like that's right.
Currently, under Seto is the forest. However, if asked which forest it was...... Ray would point to a city that looked light and far away and say it was a 'forest near Subrusta'.
From the day I trained with Rox, a few days...... I delivered supplies and additional escorts to Sura and the others, traveled for a few days during the journey, training so much that I would need to rest my body for now, and then the Rays left again to return to the Guild.
And, naturally, going to the Guild means going along the streets, and more than that, it needs to pass near Subrusta.
I heard from Rox that it was dangerous to go through this area, and I searched for a bunch of bandits around here with both hobbies and tangible benefits… I had unexpectedly succeeded in discovering a bunch of people who seemed to be lightly bandits.
Of course, it is not clear from the sky whether that group in the woods is truly bandits.
It would have been different if we had seen the sight that was attacking the merchant, because at least we are now just a bunch in the woods.
(In circumstantial evidence, you're definitely black.... Well, no matter what we do with those supposedly bandits right now, we'll be gathering another bandit again until the Suras come around Subrusta)
This neighborhood is also a place for the bandits to dress up. Of course, there is a proviso that only those who have the strength to do something about the adventurer or have a sharp idea of running away immediately if they feel it is dangerous.
Especially now, there are more crowds than usual in the construction of the Gilm additions.
There are also a certain number of merchants who do not hire escorts, whether they are confident in their arms or not thinking about anything… Such opponents were just the prey of the outfit for the bandits.
Sometimes the bandits' proprietary information network brings together a lot of bandits who know this is a great place to earn money, and there are now more bandits around this Sabrusta than usual.
What the Rays have found is probably also the bandits who have just come to Subrusta like that.
As if to prove it, the bandits are not paying attention to the surroundings, and the camouflage is very naive to keep ourselves from being found.
Most importantly, if it were normal, I wouldn't have to imitate that against the sky... but in the case of Sabursta, the story is different.
They're near the border, so there are quite a few monsters flying in the sky.
Not as likely as Gilm or Abu Ero to be attacked from the sky.
Without having to look at Ceto's example, a flying monster travels very fast compared to a monster traveling on the ground.
... Yes. Even around Subrusta, enough to be a feeding ground for flying monsters around the Guild.
Not to mention that in Gilm, the only peripheral city of the kingdom of Mireana, other villages, cities, cities… at the end of the day you may also keep in touch with the King's capital.
At that time, the Summoned Monster, the Tamed Monster, and in some cases the Dragon Knight may come and go as a conductor.
It turns out that those bandits have just come around here at a time when they are not paying attention to the sky in such a place.
"Do you want me to hunt for it?... I'm sorry, but I found a bunch of bandit-like people. I know it hasn't really been decided yet, but I'm pretty much sure from my predictions. So let's get Seto down on the ground once."
When he tells that to the Seto cage, Ray asks Seto to put the Seto cage a little further away from the forest.
Since it would have the effect of blending into the surrounding scenery, it would be best to stay close with the seto cage... unfortunately, such imitation would require the seto cage to be lowered into the forest at present.
Then Seto's cage may be destroyed by the trees that grow in the woods.
In order not to do so, it was still necessary to unload the seto cage once to a place where there was no problem in unloading the seto cage and then return to the earlier location.
In the seto cage, Vihera spoke of things like wanting to fight herself, but for now, while it was recirculated, Ray lowers the seto cage over a meadow a little further from the street.
The sound of Seto's cage being lowered to the ground surprised the merchants and their escorts riding several carriages that were going down the street, alerting them to some kind of raid, but Ray and Seto go back to the woods regardless.
Most likely, if Seto went down in front of those who were thought to be bandits directly, he would not have been seen working as a bandit in person, so he could have cut the white.
If so, it was necessary to make sure he acted as a bandit so that cutting white would make no sense before dealing with the men.
For this reason, Ray asks Seto to drop him off away from the bandits, and at first glance, he can determine that Ray is Ray, so Seto asks him to turn to the other side of the bandits.
(Though I don't necessarily run behind adults. No, Ningro, run in all directions. so that you are less likely to get caught at all.... In fact, it's more troublesome to get away with it that way than to be withdrawn neatly)
In order to dress up as a beginner who has just become an adventurer for now... Ray doesn't have his iconic death size out of mysteries, let alone a spear of dusk that can be judged to be an industry at first sight... he hands a regular spear, like he sells everywhere.
Can I have a spear like the one I used to throw, which I don't normally use as a spear? For a moment, I thought that Sabrusta was also close to the border, with adventurers of considerable skill.
Less, such an adventurer, who can't get his hands or feet in an adventurer like he was in the countryside near the border.
Beyond that, it seems unnatural to have a spear that really lacks a tip.
Judging so, proceed through the woods with a normal spear in your hand...
(You were there)
Eventually I sense multiple signs from those who Ray is progressing.
Feeling the signs, Ray keeps going with nothing like stopping his legs...... five men accidentally show up before Ray, who was walking slowly for about five minutes as he was.
"Oops, that's it"
"Who, you guys?"
"Well, I wonder who. But whoever we are... I don't think it matters to you anymore."
"What does that mean?
Ask as you act like you're hiding your fright.
He knew his act wasn't that good, so maybe he'd be seen through? It was said and done with anxiety, but fortunately the five people who showed up didn't seem to notice Ray acting like that at all.
With daggers and long swords in his hands, he has an abusive grin toward Ray.
(I guess the reason there's no spear class is because I'm assuming it works in the woods after all.... Well, as a bandit, that would be a natural consideration)
While I feel that way, I am alert to what is going on around me... I feel that there is no way for anyone but the five people in front of me to move at all, and I doubt it.
(Did the five of you come alone? Or did they think it was simply enough for the five of us... whatever, that's a bit unexpected)
A man with a dagger floats a mockery when he sees Ray with a spear in his hand.
"What are you thinking about spears in the woods? Not to mention, from that spear, you're just a newcomer to adventure, right?
Words and deeds as if they were half-determined.
At the same time, I can feel the desire to be so from that look.
I guess it's more natural than being a bandit, but the men weren't the kind of people who could imitate things like concealing their expressions.
(Well, if you're going to be the guy who leads the big bandits, even the bandits, you're often the right person)
With that in mind, Ray tries to drag out a decisive word with his spear tip pointed at his opponent.
"You guys, being in these woods means... you're bandits! Recently, a guild said there were more bandits around here."
It's cod out of Ray's mouth.
I guess that's more than natural than not having stopped by Sabrusta and then came here.
But more than I knew the information that there were more bandits around Subrusta and Abu Ero involved in the construction of the Gilm, it's not all cod out.
(How do you answer that? deceive me or decide I'm just a novice to being an adventurer......)
Ray waiting for his opponent's words, but the men smile and open their mouths when they thought that Ray's gaze was what scared them.
"Correct. We are bandits. But I'm sorry to hear that. Even if you know that, you're a ghoul."
The bandit who tried to frighten Ray couldn't say the words to the end.
Because the spear was piercing the torso.
Naturally, the origin of the spear is Ray.
The spear, thrown not to be hooked by the surrounding trees, pierces the torso of one of the bandits, through the flank of another bandit who was behind it, and further completely embeds the tip of the ear in the trunk of the tree behind it.
At that moment, the bandit men had no idea what was going on.
The only thing I can tell is the tall sound that was born when a spear tip pierced a tree trunk and the sound of two of my buddies falling to the ground.
The three remaining look at Ray in an unnatural move, as if he were a broken doll.
What happened, who did it?
Because I had no idea.
No, we know with our own eyes exactly who did it. But I didn't want to understand it, the thought of not understanding it was stronger.
Being in front of us is not a weak prey or anything... that we are strong enough to not be opponents.
Did the tall sound of the spear piercing the trunk of the tree make you realize that something strange happened to the other bandits, each ready to deal with no matter what.
Feeling the signs of those bandits, Ray takes another weapon out of Mystering instead of the spear he threw.
... yes, a deep red symbolic weapon called Death Size.
Originally, weapons like Death Size are not very much, but they don't deserve it, where there are tons of trees growing like forests.
If you are going to main the poke like a spear, the death size is a sickle, and the act of swinging is the main thing.
Nevertheless, I took out the Death Size on this occasion in order to show them who I am in no more way.
Person with a sickle bigger than his height and an item box.
There are very few such persons.
No, instead of less. Probably the kingdom of Mireana...... even if you look at all of Elgin, Ray will be the only one.
Someone called a bandit eater and feared by the bandits because of their preference to attack the bandits and take away the property the bandits have...... Deep Red Ray.
When the deep red ray is in front of you, did you understand, or did Ray go into action before you understood?
At the next moment, the death-sized blade, wielded through magic, cuts up and down the torso of the bandits along with the trees growing around them.
The corpse of five, unable to say anything and falling as-is to the ground, gives a strong iron rust odor all around.
Sometimes it was summer, and the temperature even made me feel like its iron rust odor would spread extra around.
Leaving such an iron rust smell on the spot, Ray, with his death size, goes straight to the back.
The speed as if to leave the air itself on the spot would have been a completely unexpected substitute for the bandits who were in the back.
"Become!"
In that, the first bandit to find Ray tried to say something, but Ray waves a death size without having to hear it.
"Damn!"
The man who tried to scream something ended up dying with his torso in two with just one grunt.
But the bandits on the spot will soon be ready for battle as well, beyond what was happening in a situation where they were in half combat.
While such a reduced distance from his opponent, Ray switched the death size to his left hand to take out the spear of dusk on his right hand and throw it.
The spear of dusk, which flew with the momentum of slashing and tearing the air itself, pierces the torso of several bandits and instantly takes their lives.
And the spear that took a few lives, disappeared immediately...... back in Ray's hands at the next moment.
What started there was the demonstration of Ray's main power, feared to be a bandit eater, who feeds on bandits who sip people's lives.
A bandit with an alias adventurer... there was no way that a bandit who had just arrived around here could do that, and in a few minutes, the bandit on the spot would leave one for information-gathering and would be breathless.
