"... so? After all, he decided to take on the favor."

Already the fall is about to end, but the Rays were still dining in the garden at the marina's house.

Most importantly, it is naturally cold if nothing is done, so the Marina uses the Spirit Magic of the Wind to keep the cold wind of the night out of the garden.

This is something you can do because as a spiritual wizard, you are an armed marina, and even if you are the same spiritual magic user as a marina, it is not something you can do so easily.

That's what would even be a waste of technology and a groan if non-marina spiritual magic users saw this sight.

Even if you dine with Seto, there will be some other way.

But if you try it as a marina, it's enough that you use spiritual magic, so this is the quickest way to do it.

If it starts to snow, it will be harder to imitate this with snow on the ground, but until then... and it's not surprising to think so.

Such an amazing spiritual wizard was turning his gaze to Ray, who was eating a stew full of meat and vegetables at the table.

Trent's forest work is almost done, and Ray now has no work to do especially in a hurry.

But I'll have to go out with Elaine to the Duke of Keller in a little while, so I don't have to spend time on anything like that...... is the honest question of the marina.

No, that's not just the marina. The other faces are the same again.

The only thing I heard was that only Vihella was combat training, and I was looking at expectations.

"Oh. To be honest, the truth is, that request... no, I wasn't going to take the favor"

In the form of a request that did not go through the guild, Ray's impression was that it was not a request, but a request.

"So why did you take it on?

Elaine asks while eating fish roasted in a kiln of magic items.

It was a fish similar to a sea bream about forty centimetres long, but its body, baked by the heat of the kiln, had a hockey texture, and Elaine, who as a nobleman had eaten a variety of dishes, tasted satisfactory enough.

It is also very compatible with the sauce made with its sour fruit, and if it is meant to be, that is the dish that is not strange to go out in a luxury store.

"The man who bought the meat from the stall was actually born in the cafeteria. I told him that if I did him a favor and trained him once, he could teach all sorts of things to the owner of that meaty street."

Yes, the skinhead man was born and raised in the house where he ran the cafeteria, so that's what he knew more about cooking than Ray did.

That's why I've been helping the house since I was a little girl, so I guess the knowledge around it came naturally to me.

In the end, he chose the path of an adventurer rather than a cook.

But just because you become an adventurer, not a cook, doesn't mean you lose the knowledge and skill in cooking that you've acquired since you were a little girl.

And I guess that's why the skinhead guy understands that Ray thinks he wants to help the stalls selling meat if he can.

Because I spotted Ray's idea like that, I asked Ray to train me in exchange for the consideration of advising me on my cooking skills and making meat meat.

... objectively, Ray will undertake the training of the adventurer and it will be the owner of the fleshy stall who will receive the reward.

In that sense, there is no such thing as profit for Ray... but nevertheless, Ray decided to take on the favor.

For Ray, food enrichment means a lot.

Not to mention, if the result of trying something new is failure, it will make it harder for those who follow it to get their hands on it.

To avoid that, and for Ray to eat a delicious meatloaf, he took on the favor.

When Ray explains to Elaine's question, it was not the shuddering...... but the gaze of Ning Ro's convincing.

Because it was obvious how much Ray valued the act of eating if we also made out with Ray a long time ago.

Ning Ro, I would say the man acted very well.

"I see. It's just good to train, but we don't have a lot of time, okay?

"I know. Just one day tomorrow, so don't worry."

"Oh, then it... can I go too?

It is, naturally, Vihera who claimed to want to take part in the training himself.

As a Vihela who enjoys the fight and prefers to fight strong enemies above all else, there is no option in this situation for her not to participate.

That's more than just that Ray is vulnerable to food. That's what everyone here knew.

"I don't mind that, but should I look around?

The logging of trees in the Trento woods, for which Ray is the main task, is almost over by winter.

That's why Ray could afford to accompany other adventurers in combat training in this way.

But...... the job that Vihela was primarily doing is basically looking around Gilm as a help to the guards.

The number of merchants is much smaller, and many of those who worked in the construction of the additions whenever possible, it was time to finish their work and leave the Guild.

Thanks to this, there are fewer disturbances in the Guild than in the peak season, but still more Guild dwellers than usual because there are still those who wanted to get older in the Guild.

And if there are more residents, there will naturally be more trouble, and the guards will be busy working.

If the guard can't get around, naturally the job will come around to the adventurer... the look-around job as an aid to the guard was still quite there.

Is your job okay? And Ray hears that Vihera smiles that she has no problem at all.

"Compared to a while ago, I've been a lot less busy. I don't think it's a particular problem if I don't participate"

To such Vihella's words, Ray... No, even the three of Elaine, Marina and Arla who were on the spot turn their gaze to Büne, who is savoring his fifth cup of stew.

The four gazed at Bühne nodded silently when he realized about it.

Even if I was focused on eating stew, I guess I would have listened to the Rays firmly.

Vieune shows with that attitude that what Vihella is saying is true.

Seeing it, the Rays finally believed Vihera's words, but Vihera, who was watching it as a matter of course, disgusts them.

"Hey, you couldn't trust my words?

"Even if they say so, the usual deeds... hey?

To Marina's words, Ray, Elaine, and Arla nod as if the timing had coincided.

If this was something else… if that was something that was not involved in the fight, I would have trusted Vihella's words.

I can't imagine it from the outside, because Vihera takes it seriously if it's not about fighting.

But when it comes to fighting, the story changes dramatically.

From previous experience, it would be natural for the Rays to think so.

Does Vihera also understand about her personality, and she can't say anything more to other facetious attitudes?

I just didn't say anything, but I looked at Ray with a fixed eye.

Noticing such a vihella look, Ray opens his mouth to change such a vihella mood.

"Okay, so that means Vihella's coming to that combat training, too, okay?

"Yeah, and so is Beaune."

"Hmm?"

To the sudden words of Vihera, Buune, who had concentrated on stew, himself? and tilt his little neck.

"Yeah. If you're always in a simulated battle with a determined opponent, you're gonna make something really familiar, aren't you? So this is just the right time. Do you mind?"

"... n"

To Vihera's words, Bühne gives a little thought and then nods back.

Is it because you understand that there is no harm in keeping combat training for Büne?

The party called Red Lotus Wings, led by Ray, has all the more combative.

So even though it's still small, Büne thought it was necessary to keep his powers strong.

That's why I snorted honestly at Vihera's words.

"I mean, you don't mind, do you?

"Oh, I think that's fine, too. If there's a lot of guys out there who train to fight, the better."

I expect combat training with the Rays, but other than that, it shouldn't have been a bad thing for the other side that fighting training with Vihela and Bühne was important.

"What will Elaine and the others do when Vihera and Bühne come?

You want to go with all of us? And that's what I told Ray, but Elaine shook her neck sideways at Ray's words like that.

"No, it can be a lot of noise when I walk out. Besides, it's not necessarily that the aristocrats won't show any movement. Let's just say we stay here."

"Because I'm here, I'll let you know as soon as something happens..."

For Ara, I didn't think there was a problem with Elaine than she was out of the guild.

Most importantly, Elaine's time with me has been precious lately, so as for Ara, I was very much in favor of Elaine not moving.

"What about the marina? You want to come with us?

"Um, I'm a little interested in that stall, but you're a little called by the guild,"

"... is there a problem? Maybe there's another dungeon somewhere, right?

If so, I'll go there more than a mock fight.

That was Ray to tell you otherwise, but Marina shook her neck sideways with a bitter smile against Ray like that.

"No, I'm not. Yeah, but it's not a dungeon, but when it comes to lay relationships, I guess so."

What's this all about? and to the doubtful Ray, Marina turned her slightly shuddered caged gaze.

"You know, Ray's the one who left a ton of monster bodies in the Guild's warehouse, right? Have you forgotten?

"That's right...... do marinas lend a hand in dismantling too? I heard that the dismantling of monsters is a priority for adventurers who don't have jobs."

"Right. That's not a mistake. But my Spirit Magic... especially the Spirit Magic of Water, it helps when you dismantle a monster, doesn't it? And with the Spirit of the Wind magic, we can deal with the smell in the warehouse."

If you say so, Ray can also see why Marina was called to the scene of the demolition.

It is thanks to the spiritual magic of the marina that a comfortable meal is being prepared outside the house on this seasonal night, when winter is already just around the corner.

If you are someone who knows that ability, it would be natural to determine that it is a very effective ability to do the demolition of a monster in a hangar.

Most importantly, it can't be that easy to imitate calling the former Alliance Master Marina.

"If it's not urgent for now, that's fine.... Sorry."

"Fine, nothing. Because most of the construction work in Michi was closed and there was nothing to do."

"Still, for once, there's somewhere to proceed with construction, isn't there?

Nothing, just because it's winter doesn't mean all the construction work will end.

Some of them can be done even in winter, and some places require professionalism.

Especially in the case of the latter, the professional, marina-like presence, which can sometimes be followed up in some way by just a small number of craftsmen, would be most welcome.

"Right. Originally, however, Gilm is a highly talented person. It's not like I have to be here."

"Uh... if you say so, yeah"

Only the border, and the adventurers belonging to the Guild are basically many handymen.

Born and raised in the Guild, someone arrives in the Guild with a strong companion, and now comes looking for work on the Guild's additions… and not all are necessarily skilled, but still never take a draw compared to the King's capital or around the labyrinth city.

Those like wizards and spiritual wizards are also small but well numbered and are undoubtedly fortunate to have the means to recover magic when something happens.

And reducing the scale of the additional construction work also means that the strength of such people can be fully demonstrated.

"Right, so I can focus on the demolition of Ray's monster."

"No, still, I don't know if Marina would bother working with you..."

As Ray says, Vihella tells.

"Well, look. Once the Alliance staff is on the lookout, that doesn't make it entirely possible, does it? I don't think there are adventurers out there who imitate that stupid... but there are so many adventurers out there in the Guild right now. You need to keep an eye on him for once, don't you?

To the words of the glossy smiling marina, we prayed that none of the adventurers on the spot had a bad habit of dismantling them.
