"Phew... don't be subtly nervous"

"Phew, yeah? I don't think it's strange that I'm used to this sort of thing because I'm talking about Ray."

Elaine, hearing a grunt out of Ray's mouth, tells her with a grin as she takes that arm.

The time is already night.

Many participants had already gathered in the big hall of the party venue to attend the New Year's party, hosted by the Duke of Kelp.

The party hasn't actually started yet because the Dukes of Kelevel and Elaine haven't been to the party yet.

But still, there should have been more varied stories than many were gathered together.

In that, Ray has the role of escorting Elaine, so this is how she's in the understatement.

I ended up talking to Bruit during the day and it was amazing, and that's how it came close to evening, and Bruit had to do a lot of things to do too, leaving even though it looked very annoying, and all that remained was Ray.

I killed a little time in the library recommended by Miranda, and that's when it was time, so this is how I came to the modest room with Elaine.

It should be noted that Elaine's parents Liberté and Arcadia's two modeling rooms are different from Elaine's.

Arcadia must have distracted us around here.

That I wouldn't be able to slow down where Elaine and Ray are if I had those parents.

Because we're having dinner together, there's no such thing as nervousness in Ray anymore.

Ning Lo In this case, Ray was nervous in the role of escorting Elaine.

"Even if they say so. First of all, make sure Elaine keeps the sight of the venue to herself, right? So, if there's me there... I'll definitely get noticed too."

That said, Ray turns his gaze to Elaine, who is arming herself again.

I can't naturally see Elaine's whole thing because I'm looking sideways from a tight state.

But even if you're wearing a party dress... no, you can tell because you're wearing it, rich double hills.

That comes self-asserting to Ray with overwhelming force because it's close.

Even Ray, who is used to seeing Elaine, is this it, so if he rarely has the opportunity to deal with Elaine, what the hell will happen?

That, you won't even have to think about it.

"I'm glad you told Ray that."

To Ray's compliments, Elaine really... that's what gives me a delightful grin from the bottom of my heart... the sound of a knock in the room as if to block that grin.

"Excuse me. Lady, Lady Ray. It's time to go to the party venue."

That's what I've been saying, it was a maid.

However, Ray is not Ray's Miranda, and Ray is the first person to see it.

A maid who looks like a veteran in her forties and fifties.

To the appearance of such a maid, Elaine smiles another different kind than when Ray praised her.

"Jalana, were you back? I thought you might want to come because I'm busy today."

"Ho ho. It's a young lady's revelation. I came back a little hard."

Elaine's white cheeks stain thin red with the word lady's revelation.

Because I understood what a maid named Jalana meant.

Basically, it was Elaine who rarely went to the party, but it doesn't mean she still doesn't attend all the parties.

The same goes for the New Year's party that takes place today, but there are some parties that really need to come out.

That's why the word reveal isn't supposed to be worthy... there, when Ray is with us, the story changes.

Because that means that when you have a Ray as Elaine's counterpart, you let her know.

Elaine's cheeks were dyed red because she was told about her relationship with Ray in the dark.

Before I went to the party venue, on the contrary, at the point where I was arming myself in the modem, there was no excuse.

"Sa, ma'am. It's time for you to go.... Lady Ray, please lady"

"Oh, I know"

Straighten yourself up...... Ray nods at Jalana as she sees herself with an alias.

If you don't know many rumors about Ray and don't know about his aliases, it's not uncommon to imitate them.

But Jarana, who works at the Duke of Keller's mansion, couldn't have known what was going on around there.

Still straight, they look into Ray's eyes without fear, so his brains were clearly above those of adventurers around him.

"Well... let's go"

"Uhm."

When Ray asks with his arms together, Elaine is short, but tries to get in the mood for herself and nods small.

That's how Ray and Elaine walk out of the room.

Heading there, naturally, is a party venue.

We dress each other like we deserve to party, and if the viewer sees it, it seems like the best combination, like that.

... Most importantly, Elaine is taller in Ray and Elaine, so she's not the ideal lover for anyone in terms of appearance.

Still, the two of them walk down the hall with their arms together, without looking particularly concerned about things like each other's tall height.

At first there were no people around at all, but as we approached what would become a party venue, more aristocrats would also be talking in the hallway.

Such nobles naturally become blinded and unable to move when they see the figure of Elaine, and for the first time since returning to me, they realize that there is a figure of Ray next to them.

Naturally, the nobles here know who Ray is... all they know is Ray, the adventurer, wearing a dragon robe.

So at first I didn't think Ray was the one with Elaine.

"Hey. Hey. The man who was with Master Elaine...... you know who he is? I was a guy I'd never seen before."

"Ah, oh. I've never seen him like that before, either. Who the hell is that?

"Maybe... maybe really, but I think that's a deep red ray"

"Huh? Um, an adventurer with an alias? Oh, but if you ask me, I feel like I was about the same height, and I look..."

Those who watched it nearby speak that way, but Ray and Elaine go down the hallway without looking particularly concerned.

Most……

"What is that? Can't you think of a match with Master Elaine? This is why the lower bitch."

"Look, that. Master Elaine's taller, isn't she? Normally, you wouldn't be ashamed to come out to places like this with Master Elaine. What the hell are you thinking?

"Well. Mostly, it's common for these people to dream unknowingly."

Many people exchange words that make them feel malicious, not just those who first saw the Rays and felt purely surprised...

Besides, I'm saying it at a size that sounds slightly ray, but it's even worse.

In fact, Ray has a sharp sense of five senses, so he doesn't have to imitate it like that to hear it normally.

Ray also knows that's ugly jealousy.

Ray said he was jealous and resentful that he was in a place he couldn't reach on his own.

Even if you know that, jealousy from such opponents is not funny...

"Never mind, Ray. People like that can only be jealous. I didn't make any effort on my own, and then only jealousy is flourishing, because I'm pathetically incompetent"

Turn to Ray, that's what Elaine tells him.

That, too, is not a voice that sounds just like Ray...... but like the guys who were wielding malice toward Ray, at that size.

Naturally, the nobles who were loathing toward Ray will also hear that voice, dissatisfied but unable to say anything in the present situation.

In fact, these nobles are not particularly good at anything.

Several of them were in the hallway, gazed at the other nobles, who could no longer be on the spot, and left.

"Not at all."

With that said, there's a satisfying grin in Elaine's mouth.

You naturally get angry if your thinkers say it badly, and you defeated someone like that, so you naturally feel better.

"So shall we go? There will be a lot of people waiting for us at the party venue."

"I hope so. As far as I can tell, it doesn't feel like Elaine's the only one waiting."

"I was looking forward to attending today's party with Ray, weren't I?

That's what I say, I can put my strength in the hand holding Ray's arm.

In that case, Elaine's rich double hills would naturally be distorted by Ray's arms, and if anyone had seen the sight now, they would undoubtedly have opened their eyes wide.

That was the surest way to be blinded by the sight of the present, regardless of gender.

Nevertheless, fortunately - or unfortunately - Ray and Elaine are the only two people who are seeing the sight now.

Others said they didn't want to be the target of Elaine's earlier blow... and decided that the party was going to start in earnest, more than Elaine had come, and had already left early enough for the party venue.

As a result, I guess that was best for everyone.

If you're looking at the sight now, it's likely you didn't make it to the start of the party.

"Mmm, Kohon."

Elaine also goes down the hallway without imitating Ray's arm still letting go, dyeing her cheeks red thin on her actions.

If that's how the party venue gets closer, then naturally there will be a lot of nobility gathered there.

Curiosity, jealousy, favor from many...... Ray and Elaine finally arrive at the party venue, with all kinds of gaze.

As he enters the party venue, the aristocrats there flash instantly.

The nobles who came to the party venue before Ray and Elaine, they had heard the story. I was asking...... many are still surprised to see Ray and Elaine.

I know as a matter of course that Elaine is an unparalleled beauty if she is an aristocrat.

But whosoever, knowing it, thus sees Elaine, shall be blinded.

Even those who knew Elaine could understand that her beauty would be different if she looked at Elaine again.

And by the time it's decisive, the biggest reason it's different is...

"Is that the deep red ray?... As far as I can tell, you don't look like a rumored guy."

"No, no, it doesn't look that way now, but it was tremendous in the mock fight before this. Because you were alone and defeated dozens of opponents. That's what it's all about: no false aliases in deep red."

One of the aristocrats doubts Ray when he sees him, but the aristocrat who was near him tells a story about the mock fight he saw.

Rarely...... that's what was really rare, that nobleman explained in a rather favorable way to Ray.

It is rare that a nobleman in favor of Ray listens to such noble explanations by many who were listening around him.

Though those who have some thoughts about Ray had heard such a noble tale with an abominable look.

Nevertheless, I can't give a detour any more than I showed in a mock fight how much power Ray has.

Not to mention because if you make a detour that it doesn't matter, you become the two dances of Count Caselles removed from the aristocracy.

(Wow, they're watching)

Ray, who entered the party venue with Elaine, thinks so with a smudge.

Originally, being seen by others is not such a rare story, and I'm used to it.

But... this is the Anesis, home of the aristocracy, and many of those gathered at this party are aristocratic aristocrats.

More than that, it will be different than usual for Ray to be seen as a matter of course.

If always, that's what many people see Ray, but today it's seen in a way that you should even call it Elaine's accompaniment if you say so.

I'm not used to the subtlety of it, and I feel like I can't say anything.

"Let's go, Ray. Your father and mother are waiting."

"Hmm? Oh, okay"

Following Elaine's gaze, she also saw Ray talking to the nobility ahead of her.

I guess I often talk to nobles only to Liberté and Arcadia, the organizers of this party.

Ray and Elaine move closer towards those two.

Then naturally, the surrounding gaze also follows those two, and Liberté and Arcadia, who are talking to the nobility, also notice the presence of Ray and Elaine.

Arriving in front of those two, Elaine smiles and opens her mouth.

Father, Mother, it's late.

"I'm not used to this kind of party, and I was talking to Elaine for a little while, and I'm late"

That's how Elaine and Ray spoke to Liberté and Arcadia.
