Legend

Request for mock battle...... No, the day after receiving the request, Ray quickly takes two people, Vihella and Büne, to the training ground he went to the day before.

Still no sign of Seto with Ray today.

Seto was supposed to play slowly in the garden of Marina's house today with Yellow.

When Ray asked me what I was going to do today, Seto got a little lost too... I guess Seto decided to play with Yellow today too because Yellow rattled to play with Seto.

Being with Ray is definitely the most important thing for Seto, but it's also not a mistake to want to hang out with a friend named Yellow who is in the same position as himself.

"Right there.... Well, I wonder what kind of people there are. I hope someone has some sights."

Find a stall selling meat, and Vihera squeaks.

Meatballs are a landmark for the training ground, which means that today it is still the place for meatballs stalls in the end, and as a result yesterday's sales were not fragrant either.

(I've told you a few things that seem to have improved.... Is it impossible to suddenly do something about it yesterday today?)

Ray advised me that I should just add ingredients with different textures or bite-sized meat instead of just ground beef, but it's hard to keep it alive the next day just because I was advised...

If you're a professional who's been a cook for years, you can probably adjust around it, but the shopkeepers who do the raw hate and meaty stalls don't have that much experience.

"Hello, today its...... thank you"

The stall owner comes out of the stall and bows his head when he finds out what the Rays look like.

I guess I'm deeply grateful because it's a favor that would otherwise have absolutely nothing to do with the Rays, but it takes it on.

However, in Ray's case, it is precisely because of me… I wish I could easily eat meat in the street, but I took this case from that idea.

"That, this. If you like. … taste is almost the same as yesterday."

That's what the store owner says and gives the meat to the Rays one at a time.

The two Vihera and Büne who received it also eat meat quickly...... a subtle face.

If it is unsavory, I can also assure you that is what is unsavory.

If it tastes good, I can honestly say what I think it tastes like, naturally.

This meatloaf is neither unsavory nor tasty...... it tastes extremely normal and that's what makes me have trouble evaluating it.

I guess the shopkeepers figured out those two thoughts. I scratch my head and laugh like I'm deluding something.

"Haha. Was it no good after all? I've changed the seasoning a little bit."

"... that's another way I said it yesterday."

What Ray said yesterday was that try changing the size of the ingredients to entertain the texture......

But the stall owner chose to change the seasoning formula.

Most importantly, it's not that Ray's opinion is absolute, and the stall owner didn't even know if it was worthy of the phrase - the main job selling food.

"In the meantime, they'll get the help of a guy who's really familiar with cooking when today's mock fight is over, so just be a little more patient until then"

Ray also eats meat again and heads to the training ground.

Naturally, Ray also had only one thought: Normal for the meat that he ate.

Whatever went into the training ground, it was quite a fine dojo there.

Of course, it's a place to train in the cold, so it can't be outside or a place with a gap breeze.

Anyway...

"Wow."

From Ray's mouth, such a grunt leaks unexpectedly.

Because there were nearly thirty men and women there.

Besides, everyone is staring at the Rays.

Despite being a training ground, not a single person is currently in training.

Just stare at the Rays' presence.

Eventually, one of them...... a man who must be a leader among those gathered here today, rises.

In my thirties or so, I know my body has quite a bit of muscle on it, but this sight doesn't have meaningless muscle on it, but a man of physique who should also be called a tight muscle, emphasizing agility.

"You've come a lot. Welcome. My name is Eduardo and I'm partitioning this training ground. Today, I apologize for asking you for Schwartz's impossible favor. But we were all very excited to be able to experience the power of Lord Ray directly."

After all, Ray is a little surprised by the attitude of such a man, who just thought he'd be spoken in a more blurry way.

"Oh, never mind. It's a profitable thing to do."

"Yeah, I know. It's about the stall we're doing in front of the training ground, isn't it? There are a few other people besides Schwartz who were born in the cafeteria or who worked in the cafeteria, so I'll be there to help."

Ray soon found out that Schwartz showed the skinhead man yesterday.

So say thank you to such a man for his words.

"Sorry, that helps"

"No. I have no problem with this extent because you can put a mock fight on Lord Ray, who has a deep red alias. So, you two..."

Eduardo's gaze is directed at two people, Vihera and Bühne, who are with Ray.

Those two people didn't look particularly concerned when they turned their gaze on them, Vihella was intrigued, and Büne was, as usual, returning her gaze to the person who was looking at herself with no expression.

"It's going to take me a while to do a mock fight on my own, and think the spare guy should be as few as he can. I know a lot of guys know Vihera, but I can tell you its strength is real. Bühne has a few arms inferior to Vihera, but still stronger than the adventurers around him."

Some of those who were listening to Ray scream at his words.

Even though I knew the strength of Ray and Vihera, I guess I didn't know the strength of Bühne.

Most importantly, Bühne is working with Vihera around the Guild.

There is no doubt that it is only capable of being allowed, and those who actually knew how capable Vihela would be of fighting were convinced without bothering.

"Really, I get it. So... if you're ready, I'd like to get started. Do you mind?

Ray nods at Eduardo's words, as do Vihera and Bühne.

Having confirmed that, Edwald gave instructions toward the face he was looking forward to a mock fight with Ray.

There are about thirty adventurers on this scene, and there are three Rays.

If so, each will naturally take on ten of them, but those who are here today are those who gathered in hopes of a simulated battle with Ray.

When that happens, Edwald divides everything from there to there into Ray, Vihera, and Bühne in a timely fashion, as if they could all be lined up in front of Ray if left to each one.

Some seemed dissatisfied, but that dissatisfaction also subsides because Ray affirmed that he would definitely do a mock fight with all of them.

Inside, even those who moved on from themselves and later turned came out in an attempt to do a mock battle after looking at Ray's hand at all.

As such, there will be a simulated battle soon...

"You're the first."

A shuddering voice leaks out of Ray's mouth as he watches Edward standing in front of himself.

But Eduardo leaks a laugh at Ray's words like that, naturally.

"The first reason I can fight at a time like this is because it's the biggest reason I'm bringing everyone together."

Ray is also convinced by Edward, who says so with dignity.

The number of those gathered thus will be considerable.

When it comes to doing things that put them together, it becomes a lot of trouble for Edward.

It is no surprise that Edward has the privilege of being the first to fight in such a case, as long as that is understandable.

"Weapons, what do you want to do? Well, there are spears that are crushing the tip of the ear, but the sickle that Lord Ray specializes in most is just..."

"I guess."

Ray is not particularly angry but convinced by Edward's words, which seem difficult to say.

In the first place, there are very few people who use the Great Sickle.

Some of those who had heard rumors about Ray's activity or seen that battle directly thought of using the Great Sickle just like Ray did.

Especially since there were many people with those hands who had just become adventurers, it was very difficult to deal with the sickle, which was behind its appearance of viciousness.

Most people give up that it is not a weapon that they can use immediately.

There is no such weapon as to use the Great Sickle among those gathered here... nor can it be prepared yesterday today.

Ray didn't imitate it like he blamed it because he knew it too.

"Well, if you have a spear that crushed your tip for now, that's fine."

That's right, Ray says, and soon one of the adventurers brings a spear that crushed the tip of his ear.

Besides, just because you're crushing the tip doesn't mean you're absolutely safe.

It is powerful enough to be used as a weapon, beyond being a normal spear except for crushing the tip of the ear.

Not to mention, it's Ray who uses that spear.

That's what ten or twenty monsters would be able to easily kill with this spear.

Does Eduardo know that, too, this one similarly holds a long sword that crushed the blade and points a serious look at Ray.

That's how the others disappear from each other's surroundings, and we'll just sit back and see how the two of them are...

"No, no, no, no, no, no!

Along with a sharp cry, Eduardo packs an intermission with Ray at once, waving his long sword wide.

Its sharpness is sharper than Ray thought. Most……

"Huh!"

Straight down...... that's what Ray dodges that blow that the blade was hitting Ray, even though it's definitely crushed if he doesn't dodge it.

Yes, it was only to such an extent that Ray was faster than he thought.

That's how you use the dodged motion and wave the spear with just the movement of your wrist.

If it was a blow with the whole body moving, it would release a powerful blow. But instead, it is powerful, so that blow is the first blow.

Compared to that, Ray's blow, unleashed by his wrist alone, is overwhelmingly harder to grasp the first strike than a normal attack.

… while still, from Ray's physical abilities, the blow becomes an extremely powerful blow, even though it was only released by the movement of the wrist.

"Huh!?

Eduardo leaps aggressively at the blow of a horizontal giraffe wielded against his feet...

"Grr!"

The timing of that leap was only a little quicker, taking a blow around the thigh as Ray adjusted his wrist movements again to alter the spear's orbit.

"It's too early to tell. In some cases, it can be handled this way, so be careful.... Well, don't get up yet? The blow didn't go that far."

To Ray's words, Edward manages to get up.

Still, my leg is shaking slightly, I guess that means the blow now worked unexpectedly.

(Hmm? That shouldn't have been such a powerful blow.)

I think so, Ray, but the light blow now is based only on a mock fight against the Elaines.

There's no way Eduardo has the same strength as Elaine and the others, no matter how much arm he stands.

I guess that's why Eduardo has suffered so much damage due to Ray's blow.

"Ha, ha... I didn't think you'd get here in just one blow"

"I attacked him directly on the thigh.... In that sense, it was a safe attack."

What Ray remembered saying that was an interview with a fighter he saw on TV when he was in Japan.

When fighting a weaker opponent than yourself, who's also just starting to fight, he says that's enough if you kick him in the thigh with a low kick.

Kicking your thighs helps you avoid injuries that could be life-threatening or leave you with sequelae, which can then deprive you of combat power.

Yes. I was wondering if the words of the fighter I was answering in the interview were true.

I was able to get up, but Ray remembered that now, watching Eduardo finally stand with his legs trembling.
