As I'm flying through the sky riding Seto's back, I eventually see one city at the end of my gaze.
That's, Goltz.
This is the city Ray and the others were aiming for.
"You're smaller than I thought.... Well, considering it's a city around here, maybe it's the bigger one"
Ray's target for the Goltz comparison is, naturally, the Guild.
... It's just that even in the same city, it's more wrong to compare.
Originally, Gilm had a size that was essentially just equivalent to the city, even if it was named the city.
Now that it's still getting narrower, I'm expanding it to build more and officially become the size of a city, but I was wrong to compare such a city to a city like the one in the countryside.
Whatever the size of the city, there's nothing special about it. Speaking of which, the extent to which you can immerse yourself in some sense of superiority with being based in Gulm, etc.
"Did you manage to wear it before noon?"
With that said, Ray reminds me of this morning.
Should have arrived in the morning.
The biggest reason for that to be near noon was a mock fight by Vihera and Relieu.
Of course, if it's Ray or Elaine, it's definitely possible for Vihella to fight as satisfactorily as she can.
Still, once in a while, he enjoyed fighting with a different opponent… and that made Vihella quite enthusiastic about mock warfare.
As a result, it took time to leave and it was almost noon even in the morning to reach the Goltz.
"Early in the morning or something, maybe there's a bunch of people on their way to the cliff, so maybe they were lucky it was this time."
Because the entrance and exit of what appears to be a dungeon have been made to the cliff wall, there are many monsters that fall from it and fall to death.
In other words, if you go to the cliff first thing in the morning, there's almost certainly a body of a fallen dead monster during the night, and you can get things like materials, demon stones, and crusade proof sites without any risk.
Naturally, it is easy for Ray to imagine that an adventurer in search of it… in some cases, even if he is not an adventurer, hurrying to a cliff.
It's not like there's no risk.
Even if you fall off a cliff and get slapped to the ground, if you're lucky, that monster doesn't have to die.
In that case, those who have come close to the detour will be in the form of unintentional blows and will suffer enormous damage.
Not to mention that some monsters can land well on the ground and lurk around without one injury.
It would be a deadly gap if we thought about it and tried to secure the monster a little sooner rather than later so as not to lose to the others.
Most of all, the adventurer is only at his own risk.
Beyond that, it was only natural to deal with monsters on their own, even if they accidentally hit them.
"Bye, Seto. Let's go anyway."
"Gru!"
Seto squeals at Ray's words and flies toward the Goltz.
The effect of Seto cages makes it difficult to ascertain Seto's appearance from the ground.
Therefore, even if Seto was close, no one would have noticed it.
Most of all, if Seto is flying, there are not many people around here who do things like keep an eye on the sky.
Flying monsters rarely show up around here, and dragon knights are nowhere near here.
For that reason, when the sound of Seto's cage being lowered to the ground echoed around him, the few passers-by looked around with a startling look at what had happened, where they finally realized the presence of Seto's cage.
And at the next moment, Seto, who lowered the seto cage, lands.
"Hey!?
A merchant just beside Seto shouts his surprise.
Naturally. If you notice, suddenly there was a Ceto cage there, because Ceto... there was a Griffon of Rank A monsters.
Still, I guess I didn't escape because Seto was putting a ray on its back.
That's how Ray descends from Seto, sideways as Elaine and the others descend from Seto's cage, talking to a merchant man in his forties looking at himself in a blatant manner.
"Hey, listen, is that city a Goltz for sure?
"... ah? Oh, oh. Goltz... what the hell are you..."
Who is it? I know that's what you want to hear, but you're surprised and your head isn't working well, and you can't do it in words.
If my head had worked well, I might have remembered that it was Ray with a deep red alias in front of me.
And while Ray was talking to the merchant man, those who took a pass nearby approached to see what was going on.
Ray and Seto would have immediately escaped if anything had happened to them.
But seeing the sight of us talking like this makes it clear that neither Ray nor Seto are dangerous opponents.
In that case, it was only natural that Ray would be interested in Ray, Seto, and Seto cages and those who came down from them… At the same time, Ray seemed to see some guards approaching from the Goltz.
The guards come to Ray's side while those watching in a remote place suddenly appear to Griffon... and three superb beauties are taking away their gaze.
"You guys... who?
It's not strange to ask in a strong tone, either in the original sense of intimidating a suspicious opponent.
But only this time I could tell they were bad.
Because it was obvious to Seto that Elaine and the others were absolutely translatable, no matter where they came from.
... so I guess it became a way of asking people to look at them somewhere.
"I'm Ray. An adventurer. I heard there's a dungeon here."
That's what they say, and if they show you the guild card, the guards also understand what the Rays have come to do.
See the rank represented there to see Ray again, but eventually lose his curiosity and open his mouth.
"Is that a dungeon after all?
When I think of myself as Ray... I don't even know if Ray understands me as an adventurer with a deep red alias, but I nod back, a little surprised at what I've heard about the dungeon.
"Oh. With the information I gathered, I'm probably pretty sure. Of course, I'm not sure, so I can't say anything without actually going inside."
"... right"
It was a short exchange, but those who were listening to it… especially the first merchant to be spoken to by Ray opens his eyes wide to reveal his surprise.
I understood that what was on the cliff was a thin dungeon.
Still, there was more to it than someone making sure, maybe it wasn't a monster's nest hole or something.
Of course, that merchant wasn't the only one surprised by Ray's words.
Those who listened to Ray and the guards exchange around were also surprised by the words.
Most of all, Ray sees those around him, and he understands that there are two kinds of surprises among them: joy and sadness, though he questions them a little.
"So, can we go inside the Goltz? I'd like to gather information in my guild or decide on a place to stay."
"Ah, oh. Right. If you have adventurers like Ray, you're welcome over here. But..."
Hard to say, the guard turns his gaze on Seto.
... where the sight spread that at some point the rely, who had been traveling, was stroking Seto.
"What happened to Seto?
"There is only one inn in Goltz that can accommodate submissive demons. The inn will be a luxury inn among the Goltz... do you mind?
To the words of the guard, Ray replies that there is no immediate problem.
I naturally understand that there are not so many inns that have facilities that accept submissive demons like Seto, and that an inn that has such facilities would naturally mean that it is only possible to invest in facilities.
That is the kind of inn where it is not strange for large merchants, mercenaries and, in some cases, noblemen who come to the Goltz to stay, and the accommodation will naturally be expensive if it is also such an inn.
Ray nodded to the guard that there was no problem.
"Right. Then let's just go through the process. If we stay here, people will come together in the long run."
In the words of the guards, Ray... and other faces see those gathered around us.
The number of people gathered there was undoubtedly higher than earlier.
Nearly noon, the number of people passing through the streets is never higher than in the morning or evening.
But still, the Goltz is only the most prosperous city around here, and quite a few of them are headed to the Goltz even during the day.
Rays were used to attracting people's attention, but just because they're used to it doesn't mean they don't remember being dissatisfied.
If it's not funny to be a spectacle here as it is, when you store the seto cage in the mistering, you're on your way to the Goltz right away.
... Many were surprised at the storing of the seto cage, but if I tried it on lay, that was a reaction I was already used to.
That's how with Elaine and the others who were getting more surrounding attention than herself, and Seto, who was loved by Lew, Ray turns to Goltz, who looks a little further away.
(Lew's guy, you no longer hide from adoring Seto)
At the edge of his gaze, Ray thinks as he looks at Relieu walking with a delightful grin next to Seto.
At first, he tried to hide his adorability for Seto.
That would be obvious considering when Ray headed to the bandit's Azit.
But then Lew, who became somewhat of an actress with the Rays, now doesn't even hide his love for Seto.
(I wonder how many guys can understand being a guy with a disease alias after looking at the current reliew)
The Rays continue to move on even as they see Lew stroking Seto, eventually arriving at the Goltz.
We had already shown the kind of guild cards, so the process of getting into the Goltz itself ended in less time.
A processed guard asks for the location of the desired inn, and the Rays head to the inn.
Fortunately, the inn was not so far from the main entrance.
A luxury lodging with this hand is often on the side of the main entrance so that you can get in and out quickly, or in the streets of stores where the rich use it.
Of course, the latter is more overwhelming if it is the kind of inn used by truly aristocratic - which is also highly titled.
I guess the inn that Ray and the others decided to stay in this time wasn't really a luxury inn, even if it was classified as a luxury inn in that sense.
It was the Rays walking down Goltz Boulevard, but naturally the residents can turn their gaze to it in a variety of ways, like curiosity, admiration, jealousy and awe.
Keep walking down the boulevard, even as you get that gaze...
"Oh, not there?
Vihera says as she pulls Biune's hand, who was craving to see the bread she sells at the stalls that were nearby.
Following such Vihella's gaze, Ray nods when he sees that there is a large building at the end of his gaze and the sign says Green Zelig Water Pavilion.
"Apparently, you've arrived."
"Hmm...... Green Zelig Water Pavilion, huh. Doesn't seem like the right name for the size of the inn."
I agree with Marina that the more others, including Ray,
What comes to mind when it comes to Sawatari water is the little one in the mountains... that's what you'd imagine a stream of water to such an extent that you can't call it a river.
Maybe it's not actually the same, but it is as an image that is in the rays at least.
It is easy to predict that agreeing to that is probably something similar for the others.
Such an inn named Sawami is quite large.
It's not that strange to be uncomfortable with that.
"You don't care what the name of the inn is. If you can comfortably do something amazing, that's fine. For all I know, there was an inn named Goblin's Visceral Pavilion?
To that name that came out of Lew's mouth, everyone... on the contrary, even passers-by who stumbled through the vicinity look disgusted.
A typical existential goblin of unsavory meat. If it were to have that gut name, it was naturally a very, but reluctant name.
He was a reliever with a blaming gaze on him, but he walks into the inn without looking particularly concerned.
Ray and the others went into the inn again, looking at the back of such a reliw with a frightened caged gaze.
In the meantime, I'm going to ask Seto firmly if he can get into the stables.
