Legend

Keep flying on Seto's back, for a few days.

Eventually the familiar city...... with Sabursta in sight, followed by Abu Ero, and finally Gilm in sight, Ray finally has the thought of returning.

In fact, it's not like I've been vacating the guild for that long, but this time around... yes, Ray feels like he's been away from the guild for a long time because he's really gotten into a lot of trouble.

It was Ray watching the guilm with nostalgia, but I can see many people working where they are doing the additions.

But... that's not doing the additions...

"Monster!?

Yes, as it came out of Ray's mouth, there was a battle between monsters, adventurers and thinkers in the place where the building was currently being built.

Ray was in a hurry about it for a moment, but if you look closely... no, you don't have to look closely, you can see that the adventurers are in a more one-sided situation.

Many adventurers originally in the Guild are stronger than adventurers in other cities.

On top of that, once again Ray looks at the place of the battle, where the adventurers are fighting a swarm of cobolts.

Cobolt, be it not as goblin, is a fairly weak kind of monster and equals a miscellaneous fish if you try to be the majority of adventurers in the guild.

There was no way such a cobolt, even a herd, could have fought the Gilm adventurer from the front and won.

While relieved by that, Ray questions.

Why would a bunch of Kobolts bother attacking Gilm?

Cobolt is stronger than a goblin and smarter.

Why does that cobolt imitate Gilm like this, who would never win if he fought from the front?

That bothered Ray.

"Well, can't you even think about it here? Seto, get down in front of the main entrance."

"Gru?"

Don't you have to go help me? and it was a throaty cet, but Ray opens his mouth as he strokes such a cet.

"Even if you're looking at it this way, this one's winning unilaterally. Then you don't have to bother to imitate us getting in there directly."

Ray is also told not to go as far as he can with the act of descending directly from the sky all over the city.

Now, if the adventurers in battle were more disadvantaged, there would be no problem descending all at once from the sky... but if you imitate like that in a situation like the one you have now, there is no doubt that things taste different.

Not to mention, if this is also an overwhelming situation, they might say that's what got their prey sidelined.

Thinking about it, it was still obvious that we should normally go home from the main entrance here.

"Besides, there's a seto cage, right?... Well, I'm pretty sure you can do a lot of damage to a bunch of Kobolts by imitating things like dropping Seto cages where only Kobolts are"

That's all I explained, Seto rattles his throat as convinced by Ray's words and descends toward the ground.

While Ray was observing, thinking, and talking to Seto, naturally Seto was flying in the sky, so he had already come near Gilm.

Thus, Seto drops Seto's cage not so far from the main entrance.

Originally...... that is what would be noticed by the guards if imitated like this, from spring to autumn.

But now it's winter and there's not much crowd.

Now, there was nobody in front of the main entrance.

That's why I can also say that I was able to imitate this.

Seto, who lowered Seto's cage to the ground, stays in the sky and attitudes himself down to the ground.

Just at that time, two and one emerge from Seto's cage: Elaine, Arla and Yellow, approaching the Rays.

"You've finally arrived.... but don't you feel any strange vibes from the guilds?

It would be Elaine's stunt to be able to perceive the atmosphere of battle even so far apart because she has been on the battlefield for so long.

"Apparently, a bunch of cobolts are entering those working on the additions. When I saw it from the sky, it was a battle."

"Right."

I guess I don't ask in the wind if I don't have to go to reinforcements here because Elaine also knows what an adventurer is capable of being in the Guild.

Ara knows that too, so the three and two head to the main entrance without looking particularly hasty.

Naturally, you must have noticed about the Rays by lowering Seto's cage. The guards will be out in a minute to respond.

"That was a long time ago. I thought you'd be home a little sooner."

That's what the guards ask while Ray goes through the process of entering the city.

He had entered and exited this main entrance more than once, and most importantly, Ray had become friends with nature and the guards, just because he was a celebrity in the Guild.

... What do you care, because I look forward to giving Seto some food?

Now, some of the people who haven't gone through Elaine or Ara's procedures are doing things like giving dried meat while hanging the devil's necklace on Seto.

Watching such an exchange, Ray wonders what to say.

There were so many things really going on, like being tangled up by nobles and targeted by assassins, mock warfare with knights and soldiers serving nobles, trying to free a monster sealed by the boss of the largest organization in the world behind Anesis, fighting it......

I don't have enough time to explain them all, and most importantly, it's not like I can tell people easily. That's why...

"There's been a lot going on."

Just answer that.

Most of all, it's easy to imagine how much commotion Ray got into, even with that short word, and the guards will never hear more about it.

Somewhere I turn my loving gaze to Ray, and I just nod.

I had a few thoughts about such guards, Ray, but now I have more to ask than that.

"So, from the sky, it seemed like it was a fancy battle with a bunch of Kobolts in a place where they were working on the additions, you know what happened?

"Uh... oh. Just after the beginning of the year? From that time on, they began to come in from places where sometimes a flock of cobolts were working on additions"

With that said, I guess I don't have the look of a guard stuck in his face because I understand that for an adventurer in the Guild, a cobolt is not a big opponent.

Of course, it could be somewhat of a struggle if there were to be such things as the superior species and rare species of Kobolt... so far, as far as the guards know, no such information has come in.

That's why it was this look.

I guess it depends on people whether they see this loose or believe in the strength of Guild's adventurers, but for now Ray decides it's the latter.

"Since the beginning of the year, … so many adventurers will be unhappy"

Essentially, an adventurer is a snowy winter that goes into a long rest.

If you're an adventurer who couldn't save money by winter, that's what you need to do during winter as well, but basically many adventurers are a long vacation group.

That's how when you're resting, all of a sudden a bunch of Kobolts attack you.

Besides, it is a low-ranking monster even when defeated, so materials, demon stones, and crusade proof sites are also cheap.

Try being an adventurer who could have come to the guilds and saved money over the winter, enough to think it would be troublesome to knock them down and deliberately strip them off.

... Some people think they are lucky because if they try to be adventurers who couldn't save money over the winter, they don't have to go outside the guild to fight monsters, even if it's about Kobolt, and the emergency request from the guild because monsters have broken into the city has been multiplied by some rewards.

Nevertheless, it is true that monsters are breaking into the city, even though the intrusion of Kobolt is prevented in the places where the additions are carried out.

In contrast, I can't say that I'm lucky.

"Right. Still, well, not even Cobolt has come to the district where people live, so few people are disgruntled with being residents of Gilm."

The inhabitants of Gilm understand the fact that they live on the border.

Not all of them are for sure, so some of them are unhappy or anxious that Kobolt is attacking them... the majority of them will have come to Gilm in the last few years or for this addition.

Borders are more convenient than other villages, cities, and cities in the sense that you can get very rare materials, magic items with them, and other things, and make money… it's only a place called Borders.

If you say so, it would be the most high-risk high-return.

There is no reason to complain in this situation more than the majority of those who live in the Guild aware of it.

Of course, that's only because all the cobolts have been knocked down near the construction site.

If we fail to defeat Kobolt, there will come out those who are dissatisfied with the knowledge of the area.

"I see. At first I thought I'd go over there, because I didn't seem to worry about that. I honestly came this way... I hear you were right."

"For us, that would help. Thanks to you, I don't have to go through any troublesome procedures.... All right, the process is over. You can come inside."

To the words of the guards, the Rays enter the gilm.

Naturally, there are few people near the main entrance.

Still, it's not strange to have a few of them, if it's normal, but today it was a coincidence or nobody's appearance.

(Maybe one of the Cobolt cases has something to do with it?

If you are a resident who has lived in the Guild for many years, things like this one may not be as upsetting as that, but if you try to be someone who is just coming to the Guild for any reason, including construction additions, it is not surprising that you want to escape from a place where monsters will raid you as soon as possible.

Most of all, the only story I felt that way was just on the front gate, and if I go a little further, there's a familiar sight there for Ray.

"Ray, I'm sorry, but I'm coming to Lord Dusker's face. I'm not sure I'll be able to see you soon..."

As Elaine, who is dispatched in the sense that nobles do not oddly imitate the construction of the Gilm, she is back in the Gilm, so I guess it is necessary to report to the Dusker who governs the land.

Ray nods because he knows that too...

"What do we do? Should I go, too?

"No, I don't need Ray to come all the way. I'll let Lord Dusker know about Ray."

"Really? Sorry, I didn't mean to."

If this were normal, it wouldn't be strange to worry about telling Dusker something strange when he informs him about Ray.

But if the other person is Elaine, you don't have to worry about doing that, and you can ask for it with confidence.

"You don't have to worry about it. That... would be between me and Ray"

You said it yourself and it lighted up subtly, dyed your cheeks red and told you so out of sight.

I missed my gaze at how Elaine looked like that, and whether the said ray was subtly lit up as well.

So I realized that there are obviously few children who would come together if Seto were always there.

(Just like in front of the main entrance, is this also a Cobolt influence?... Ningro, many people are gathering to play with Seto even in this situation, which is awesome in a way)

At the end of Ray's gaze, he was around it, young and old alike.

Many were sorry that they were not in the Guild for a while, only Ceto, who is being treated in a mascot manner by the Guild.

"Grrrrrrrrrr!"

Seto eats the offered skewer and sounds his throat happily.

Even in this cold...... no, it was in the cold that the freshly baked skewers showed superb flavor.

Ray, who watched such skewers, reminds me of Fujiorgima.

In the end, the ramen made by Georgima was different from what was in Ray's memory.

Still, it was a delicious enough dish, so he said he would improve it from now on while improving it.

I was saying...... what worries me about Ray is that sooner or later he came to Gilm and told me to feed him ramen and let him say it was delicious.

I think he was only joking, considering Georgima's character... sooner or later, it wasn't weird to show up in the Guild with a glimpse

(If that happens, I don't feel like it's going to be a big commotion in the Duke of Kelevel territory... well, suppose we'll think about that later)

Leave the hassle alone. With that in mind, Ray was moving closer to Seto, who was crowded with people.
