Legend

When it is decided that Ray will go with Elaine to the territory of the Duke of Kelevel, it naturally needs to be prepared accordingly.

Especially big would still be to report to Dusker and the guild.

Originally, if an adventurer goes somewhere from that city for any reason, you don't have to bother to make a report.

However, in Ray's case, he has also chewed deeply on the construction of the Gilm and on the construction of the groundship, and is also involved in the matter of the Suras.

So I wouldn't have to bother to let you know, but when something happened I tried to rely on Ray, in fact Ray wasn't in the guild and would waste my time as a result... I needed to let you know in advance because that wouldn't happen.

And when I naturally inform Dusker, more than going to the Duke of Keller's territory, in addition to Ray, I also have the appearance of Elaine and Arla.

Someone important to Dusker, Elaine and Ray, has asked, so as a Dusker, I'm going to meet him as soon as I can, unless it's too urgent.

That's how, as usual, in the clerk's office, Ray, Elaine, and Arla were facing each other with Dusker.

It should be noted that Seto and the two yellows are currently playing together in the garden of the Lords' Hall.

"Hmm. Well, I know Lord Elaine is going back to the Duke of Kelp, but Ray's with you."

"Is something unsavory? For once, I don't think there was anything particularly urgent right now."

To Ray, who asks, Dusker somehow turns his gaze to the paperwork on the concierge over a cup of tea.

Ray, caught by it and looking at the desk, realizes that the number of documents there is clearly less than before.

Most importantly, that was proof that Dusker was desperately sorting out the paperwork, but more than that, the construction of the additions was beginning to diminish.

It's only getting closer to winter, and it's getting colder and more dangerous to work outside.

Still, for the sake of those who are looking for work, minimal construction is in progress... It was true that there were fewer documents that needed to be settled for that reason.

You noticed Ray's gaze like that, and Dusker shook his neck sideways saying it wasn't a problem.

"It doesn't matter what the paperwork is. It's just that Ray stands out in many ways. I just thought with that ray, there would be less odd disturbances. Most importantly, this is just how I feel, so I don't have to worry about it. Besides, if it's spring at the longest, you'll be back in the Guild, right?

"I'm going to. No, exactly when the New Year party is over, is it?"

To Ray's words, Dusker appeases.

It doesn't mean that without Ray we wouldn't be moving forward at all as a start on the additions, but it's still very different in efficiency from being there or not.

Above all, a ray with a means of travel called Ceto can travel overwhelmingly faster than a horse traveling on the ground, no matter how far.

... although I can't really move straight because I can be subtly directionally tone-deaf and so I get lost, I stick my neck in every rub because it attracts trouble, and I imitate finding a bandit and hunting it.

However, adding to that, Ray and Seto travel at a high speed.

When there was something urgent, it was very different from having Ray or not.

It was unfortunate that such a ray would not be in the Guild until the beginning of the New Year, but still not so much that there was nothing I could do about it.

"Okay. I would have liked Ray to be here if I could, but you're not one of my men. If you're going, you can't stop it.... Lord Elaine, Ray may cause a lot of inconvenience, thank you."

"Uhm. I'll take care of it.... but I think it's almost certain that there will be a commotion when we take Ray home."

"Must be."

Hehe, and. Elaine and Dusker grin face-to-face with each other.

I wanted to express my dissatisfaction with that, Ray, but I fully understand in the exchanges I have had since I became an adventurer that I am normal...... that is not compatible with the common aristocracy.

That's why, in the end, Ray had to listen to the two conversations but remain silent.

To the look of those three, Ara smiles zero without speaking out.

"Well, then let's just say I'm rude around here. Ray should talk to the workers, too, right? Besides, Ray has an enthusiastic receptionist."

It was obvious who Elaine's words to say so were about.

Ray also nods without any particular objection because he understands it.

"Hmm, well. Even though I can afford it, I still have work to do."

Dusker looks slightly disgusted and sees a pile of paperwork on the desk.

Although it has been less than before, Dasker originally never liked paperwork.

Still hating it and whether it's actually right for the job is a different story, having just the ability to do enough work as a lord of the guilds...... was it good or bad for Dusker?

Only an ex-knight, essentially a dusker who preferred to be moving his body, but still has to do the paperwork well.

Looking like a pain in the ass...... Still, did you get enough mood swings from talking to Ray, Elaine and Arla, getting up from the couch where you were sitting and heading to the desk...... dusker stops and turns around.

"Lord Elaine, for once, will you let me know before you leave the guild?

"Mm-hmm. Of course I don't imitate leaving without saying anything"

"Right, I see. If Lord Elaine and the others left without saying anything, I'd be surprised."

At the end of the day Ray and the others stepped out of the office and went outside while being guided by a maid who was waiting outside the room.

Rays have already come to the Lords' Hall many times, so I don't need anything to guide them... I guess it's a natural course of action because I can't let them move freely around the Lords' Hall.

Just because the Lords' Hall naturally has all sorts of classifieds there.

Also, if something like that could happen that people can't show you, and you accidentally see something like that, even Dusker will have to do a lot of things.

That's how when I get out of the Lords' Hall... sometimes Seto and the others who were playing in the garden rendezvous, which stands out as a matter of course.

Of course the Rays are in the carriage that Dusker prepared for us, but still it's not hard to identify who is in that carriage through the window...

"Dear Elaine, Aren't you Elaine!? If you don't mind, I'd like to talk to you for a moment..."

"Wait, I'm the one doing business with Master Elaine! Wood-end merchants like you, keep pulling in!

You can hear that from outside the carriage, but Ray, Elaine, and Ara, who is your man, ignore it and proceed with the carriage.

For the merchants, business with Dusker is also profitable, but it must also be very important to keep acquainted with Elaine, who has the alias of General Princess.

"You still have a hard-working merchant. It's time to go back to your area, it'll be a lot harder from now on."

"Perhaps those merchants came all the way to Gilm unplanned. Just get to Gilm and think we can work this out. But..."

"Wasn't that sweet, huh?"

To Ray, who tells her to carry on Elaine's words, Elaine nods back as she strokes the yellow on her lap.

"Mm-hmm. Of course if they had come sooner, they would have made some profit... but most of the merchants that remain here are the ones who lagged behind. Some of them would be unlucky to simply come from far away from the Guild."

"Uh... there's nothing I can do about that."

Ray tells me, just a little sympathy.

Like when I was in Japan, this world, where transportation such as planes, trains and cars is not developed, basically travels on foot or in carriages looking at parts like Ray.

Then it would take me a long time to travel very far, and as a result, I would be late in arriving at the Guild, and I would miss my business opportunity.

(If you think about it, I don't feel like you want to do something about it... but if you let someone know I'm a monster material or something, that's what I feel like a lot of trouble is coming from there)

I remember being swarmed by the merchants about the spear at dusk before, and Ray says he's sorry for imitating the same, erasing the option of helping the merchants.

Some merchants are very graphic, and such people are not very involved with each other for Ray.

It seems silly to think about it any more, Ray looks inside his carriage and changes the subject.

"This carriage, from Gimekala... they bought it from the Zorgie Chamber of Commerce to be exact, you know?

"Hmm? So this is the carriage that the Suras have been on? According to what I heard, the carriages and horses we borrowed were bought out by Sura and the others."

"Oh. However, each of them naturally makes the choice not to buy it away. Gimecameras are selling carriages bought from such people to various places. We can sell carriages this season if we have them."

The approaching winter brings many merchants together in the Guild.

Many such merchants need carriages for a variety of reasons other than the fact that they can no longer carry goods because they purchase them too much in guilds.

Try making the carriage or the horse that tows it a gimme camera that I brought on the set, and you'll be a businessman with no more.

Also, besides the merchants, like Dusker, there are people who say that there is only one carriage.

There was no more trouble for the gimechanical counterpart than it was.

That's how they build buildings that should be used as the headquarters of the Zorgay Chamber of Commerce with money that sells carriages and horses.

"From the start, I guess Gimekala was after this. Otherwise, it won't be easy to buy carriages or horses."

To Ray's words, Elaine nods in agreement.

"You sound like a merchant around here. But we need to keep what Sura and the others are saying we're going to buy, so even that maintenance cost is going to be a big deal."

"I won't deny that. Considering there are hundreds of horses alone, how much they're spending on that bait."

"In the first place, I'm surprised you've got a stables full of horses."

Of course, such an imitation is not possible if the guild remains the same as before.

That's all I could afford thanks to the construction of the new building.

Still, the Zorgay Chamber of Commerce turned around and looked for houses with stables to keep several inns and horses, and it finally felt like...

The carriage also proceeds while we talk like that and eventually arrives in front of the guild.

"Dear Elaine, Lord Ray, we have arrived."

Nodding at Arla's voice, the two get out of the carriage...... and now Ray has doubts.

"Hey, Ara. I think this carriage is owned by Master Dusker, how do you get it back? Well, of course Ara's gonna be with us, isn't she?

"That's okay. They're giving it back to me at the guild."

"... Really?"

I guess it's no stranger that that happens than the Alliance and Dusker have a friendly relationship.

While I think so, Ray nods.

"Grrrrrrrrrr!"

Turning his gaze to Seto's delightful squeal, there is a figure of Seto eating Gamellion skewers delightfully.

I thought Gamelion's meat was pretty expensive, Ray, but seeing as who was giving Seto that skewer, I was convinced.

Because it was Johanna who was giving that skewer.

If you try to be Mileyne's rival Johanna, that's what you think you want to keep as much of Ceto monopolized as you can while Mileyne is gone.

(With that said, when are the Mileynes coming home? I don't think it's possible to come back first before it's winter because that means negotiating with the Labourina country... when it does, spring? No, but...)

Normally, it seems impossible to come back to the Guild by winter, no matter how quickly the negotiations are concluded.

That's not the story if it's Seto... If it's Seto in the first place, that's why Mileyne won't come back to Gilm because she's the only one who loves Seto.

That's all Ceto enthusiasts...... or can you tolerate Mileyne not seeing Ceto all winter like I can say Ceto addiction.

If you say so, Ray had to lean his neck... maybe even in the winter he would be forced to come back to Gilm, just a little anxious.
