Legend

"Grrrrrrrrrrrr!"

Seto, who finds Goltz at the end of his gaze, rattles his throat to let Ray know he's on his back.

To such a Seto chirping, Ray also looked on the ground... a little later, finally understood that was the Goltz.

It is already night and there are only moons and stars hidden in the clouds in the sky.

Goltz is also present in only the most flourishing cities in the neighborhood, and there are quite a few lights in the evening.

Seto found the light... and then a little bit, Ray found it too.

"Uh... it's nighttime after all. If I hadn't been looking for bandits, I'd have come back a little sooner."

"Gru......"

Did you hear Ray's words, Seto rattles his throat to comfort him?

Looking for a bandit, if you found one, you'd still have figured it out.

But unfortunately... the Rays couldn't find the bandits.

Naturally. If you know there are bandits out there somewhere, you can find them light in Ray's or Seto's abilities.

But from Thormis to Goltz... even Seto will take a few hours. I don't know where the bandit is.

Not to mention the fact that it was naturally harder to find a bandit in a short time than there was no time to look carefully.

So it turned out to be this time, so the subtlety of whether or not to put it in the Goltz in the worst case scenario...... is Ray's prediction.

Most importantly, there is a magic tent in Ray's mysteries, so there was nothing wrong with being a wild boarding house.

However, I would have deliberately preferred to give you the special potion I brought from Thormis by the end of the day if I could.

"Well, don't ask me"

"Grrrrrrrrrr!"

Seto descends with his wings winged toward the approaching Goltz.

Already only at night, there is no sign of anyone walking down the street.

Even without something like a street light, with Seto's eyesight, that was the only way to see the streets firmly in the light of the moon pouring down from the gap of the clouds.

Originally only with dark vision abilities, Seto and... and Ray descend into the streets near the Goltz with no problems at all.

But naturally, if you imitate that, the guards on the lookout will notice... I could see with Ray's eyes that you were obviously on guard.

If you stay close like this badly, it tastes all kinds of nasty.

With that in mind, Ray opens his mouth as he waves his hands wide enough to look like the guards.

"It's me, it's Ray! I was out for a bit, but I'm back! Let me in the city if you can! I can't do that, but I want the potion the magic item store asked me to bring!

I guess I heard Ray like that. The movements of the guards standing on the wall seemed calm, albeit slight.

While relieved by that, Ray approaches the main entrance to the Goltz.

Then the small door for the guards that was at the front gate opens... but there's no way the guards are coming out of there.

I was Ray questioning that, but eventually a voice can be called out of the door gap in such a way as to be terrified.

"Are you sure it's Ray?

"Who else do I look like? And, see. And Seto."

"Gru!"

To Ray's words, Seto rings his throat.

... If normal, Griffon ringing his throat at night is obviously only an object of fear.

But for the inhabitants of Goltz, Seto is the benefactor - the monster - who attacked the nearby dungeon.

There are also times when Seto is moving around in Goltz quite a bit, not even loving him like Gulm... but still basically not screaming at him or anything like that.

There were several large ones available behind the door... that's what makes Ray and Seto look like from the gap in the shield enough to hide people's bodies, and now it's really time for the guards to calm down.

"It's Ray and Seto."

"Oh. Uh, good. Actually, I thought it might be a bandit or a monster."

"Me and me."

One guard comes out the door while the guards are exchanging words like that.

"Normally I wouldn't be able to get into the city if I came at this hour... only today, except for the story. Come on in."

"That helps.... but okay? I've been thinking about going wild."

To Ray's words I told him so, the guards don't know what to say and give him a subtle look.

"You know, the dungeon that was near the Goltz... it was a benefactor who attacked the dungeon that had a monster so powerful that I didn't think I'd just done it? Can you let someone like that live in a wild place outside the city?"

If I imitated that, that's what they would do to the city's inhabitants... the words of the guards telling them that way seemed to Ray as if they were serious talking, not joking or anything.

Neither does Ray want to be forced to stay in the wild.

If you can sleep in the inn bed, that means you've never crossed it, so you go inside through the door for the guards.

... By the way, Seto couldn't get in the same size, but if he got smaller using his resizing skills, he managed to get in and didn't have to open the front door.

I was surprised by the suddenly smaller ceto, naturally, but if I fronted that it was a rare species, there would be no pursuit.

No, it's not impossible to pursue, but if you say it's a rare species, you're convinced it is.

In fact, it's because you can do things that you can't do to a normal monster, because given what you call a rare species, you're never wrong.

Most importantly, if there were more powerful beings, I might not have been convinced by the word rare species by looking at a ceto that uses the skill of size reduction.

Either way, Ray and Seto finish the process of getting into the Goltz without any particular problems.

"So, what's Ray going to do now?

To the words of such a guard, Ray speaks of what needs to be done while stroking Seto, who hangs the obedient devil's necklace.

"In the meantime, you're a magic item store. I brought you a corner, so I'm going to deliver the potion."

"Right, okay. Do you need guidance?

"No, it's fine because I remember the location of the store.... and I don't even think there's an idiot in the Goltz that's getting involved with me."

Ray's attack on the dungeon is, naturally, known for his goltz.

Not to mention he was doing the demolition of monsters like Galangiga and Kelpy that he defeated in that dungeon right on the front gate.

Especially boss monster Galangiga, even though he didn't have a head, the size of it is for Goltz residents...... no, it's the first time he's seen it, even for Goltz adventurers.

Thinking about getting involved with someone with the power to defeat such a monster, etc., would be about a suicide volunteer.

Most importantly, if Ray is the only one, he may be insulted by Dragon Robe and his physique, but Ray is with Seto now.

No one will ever think of Ray more than he does with Griffon.

Do the guards know that, too, or they don't imitate it to hold it back any further.

That's how Ray, who broke up with the guard, heads to the magic item store with Seto.

"Grrrrrrrrrr"

Seto rattles his throat at at the scent that stimulates his appetite drifting from the stall.

Ray was also hungry, just like Seto.

"Thormis's food wasn't bad, but it didn't taste that good.... Well, they bought it in that short time, so maybe I can't help it."

"Gru......"

To Ray's words, Seto shouts his throat unfortunately.

If I had had more time, I would have eaten a lot of delicious food.

But only in this case, there was no time.

So I can tell you how sorry I was to not be able to eat Saumis delicious food.

(If you get a chance, you can go again... blah blah blah, I don't have any business going to Saumis anymore)

Thormis is quite a big city, but if you ask me, that's all it is.

There are several other cities of similar size, so you don't have to go all the way to Thormis, I guess.

With regard to the special potion that was the reason I went to Thormis this time, the reason I can't make it is because the alchemists in Goltz are immature, and it's not surprising that there are a lot of people in other cities who have as much skill as they can manage to do about it.

Gilm, which is based in Ray in particular, is what brings together many alchemists in search of unknown material because of the periphery.

If so, there must have been an alchemist who could definitely make the potion in question this time.

"Well, can I do that now? We need to get to the magic item store before it does."

With that said, I buy the bread I was selling at a nearby stall and share it with Seto.

There are nuts in the bread that resemble walnuts, not that they are freshly baked… but the rich flavour and texture of the nuts sufficiently enhance the delicacy of the bread.

That's why it was a natural thought for Ray to want that bread baked if he could.

"I can see you now."

I put a few pieces of bread I bought in my stomach and Seto finished eating about twice as much as Ray... so when I'm a little hungry, I see the store where I'm going.

The other stores are already closed as a matter of course at this time.

However... Fortunately, I understand that the magic item store Ray and the others were aiming for is still open.

Because the lights were still on in the store.

Look at that, Ray appeases.

I'm glad I came back like this, actually, because that's what I thought I'd do if the store was already closed.

In that case, that's early tomorrow morning...... I needed to come to this magic item store before I could leave Goltz.

Of course, there's nothing to say about that amount of effort, but if you ask me if it's troublesome or not, it's definitely troublesome.

If so, it would still be natural for me to want to give you the potion right now.

Not to mention because the man's sister, who craves that potion, is still suffering from the disease.

Let me be honest, if this is the time to rush under any circumstances, there is no time for strangers.

But if someone already knows what's going on tells you they're suffering from something you can do... ignore that and you'll definitely have bad aftertaste.

More than that, as Ray, I couldn't have taken the choice of leaving it alone.

Most importantly, if the agonized opponent had ordered him to stay, he would have passed as Ray's character.

"Whatever, I brought you a corner. Don't you have to waste your time here?"

Squirting briefly, Ray tells Seto to eat the extra bread he still had, and goes straight inside the magic item store.

As soon as I heard the door open, I could see the man who was inside the store turning in momentum.

It won't be necessary to think about who turned around that way.

The magic item store clerk...... not the adventurer guy who was waiting for a special potion to cure his sister's illness.

"Ohhhhhhhhhhh!

First look at Ray, groan like he's incredible, then see if what's right in front of him is real, and finally be sure it's real, and the guy shouts out loud.

The clerk glanced at the guy like that... and for some reason Vihera, who was inside the store, smiled with a full face and waved at Ray.

"Vihera? Why are you here?

Leave the roaring adventurer man alone, Ray asks Vihera.

It's been a long time since Ray and Vihera came to this store together.

More than that, I guess I didn't think Vihera was still in this store.

But when asked that way, Vihera smiles and opens her mouth.

"Oh, 'cause today's my date with Ray, right? Then it's only natural that we should be together when we return to the Inn."

That means that even after Ray left for Thormis, Vihera would have been in this store the whole time.

"Well, I came back to this store a while ago, too"

To Vihella's words, Ray is, uh... and a little confused about what to say.

Should I thank you for waiting for me, or should I note that it would be a nuisance for the store?

Not sure what to do...... In the end Ray grins and opens his mouth to delude something.

"I'm home."

"Welcome home."
