I came here to break the dirt wall.

That's what they told me, Ray, but I don't look particularly surprised.

In the first place, if you check on the red cloth people in front of you, it's not hard to predict that they've come to break the dirt walls.

I can imagine that you've come to destroy something at a time when most people have an axe like the one used by the Xu instead of a weapon.

"Well, get the dirt wall. Just let me tell you... the dirt walls I built are not normal dirt walls, they're magically made substitutes. That's where you guys worked a little hard, and you can't break it first. In fact, even if the cobolt scratches, it hardly scratches."

"It's..."

The redcloth men are surprised that Ray is not angry when he says he will break the dirt wall.

That's why I thought it wouldn't be strange to lose one or two of my hands and feet in some cases.

"Whoa! Why aren't you mad at me?

Ning Ro, instead of Ray, it was a group of about ten people who got angry... the man who complained about building dirt walls when Ray went to see how the dirt walls were.

"Whatever you say. I'm pretty sure they can't break dirt walls to this extent... and if they break it for any reason, that's all we have to do again."

Lightly, I tell you so.

That's what I'm saying, because the sand mountain that was around it was destroyed, and I just need to collect sand and make sand mountains again, as if that's what I'm saying.

What stunned me about that word was not the redcloth men...... but a group of people who had actually seen the dirt walls with their eyes.

That dirt wall, completely blocked outside and inside the gilm, is a substitute that even from an amateur's point of view seems to have a lot of difficulty making.

So I guess I didn't expect words like this to come out of Ray's mouth right now.

Most importantly, building dirt walls isn't that difficult if you use your death-size terrain manipulation skills.

It's laborious in the sense of staining and freezing water and reinforcing sturdiness, but that's why you can do it as soon as you call the marina.

... If I were to hire a spiritual magic user for the marina, it would cost me money... I was a party member, so I felt like I could help.

Together, if the dirt wall has two people, Ray and Marina, that's what it takes less than an hour to complete.

Because I know that, Ray said it softly... it was honest to me that if I tried to be guys who didn't know how Ray built the dirt wall, what were you talking about? This guy.

"It's just, well..."

Some tried to say something, but Ray opened his mouth to block it... twitching, seeping killer like that.

I guess I didn't even notice that killing, but the redcloth men shut up like they were barely pressured by Ray's gaze.

"I'm pretty sure it's not something that's broken and feels good because it can be fixed quickly. But for now, if you're red cloth, there's just something I'd like to ask you."

With that attitude of Ray, the redcloth men leave after a few steps I don't know.

I can't feel Ray's releasing killing spirit, but I guess he's still been pushed by an inexperienceable force.

"Hey, what's up?"

"Thinking about breaking the dirt wall, you guys have some sort of connection to one of the Kobolts. Right, you think we're using some kind of magic item to bring Kobolt into the guild?"

The fact that there are magic items calling Kobolt is only Ray's anticipation...... no, you should call it a reckoning or a hopeful observation.

Ray also thought that it might not actually be possible, but if the redcloth people actually showed up this way, it would be different.

Regardless of the magic items, it is very likely that the redcloth people are involved in one of the Cobolts.

But...... what Ray asked out of the mouth of the redcloth man was an unexpected word.

"What? One thing about Kobolt... why me?

If that was trying to mislead something, Ray would have been able to spot it, too.

Even if he's good at lying and misleading Ray's eyes, it can't be that all the red cloths on this scene are.

But all the redcloth people who were on the spot had the same look on the words of the man who showed that he didn't know what it meant.

That wasn't a joke or anything, it was a sign that Ray had no idea what he was talking about.

(Huh? That? Are you sure it's not? No, but then why are these guys here to break the dirt wall?

At the end of Ray's gaze, each of the redcloth men exchanges his gaze.

I don't know what Ray's talking about, but given the current situation, you shouldn't say anything far-fetched, so decide.

Ray, with such a gaze on him, thinks with doubt.

(These guys aren't involved in one of the Kobolt cases? But then, then... no, wait. With that said, you said these guys didn't come here on their own decision, they told you to break the dirt wall and you came here. That is……)

The pressure released from Ray's gaze becomes stronger and opens his mouth.

"You guys came here to break the dirt wall because someone told you to. Who told you that?

Back there.

The fact that the redcloth men are not involved in one of the Cobolts matters is understandable from the way things are now.

Then what about the person who told you to break the dirt wall?

There must be more reason there than I ordered you to break the dirt wall on purpose.

Naturally, it wouldn't be strange to think you're involved in one thing about Cobolt.

(So if the people here have not been informed of anything, these people will be merely abandoned pawns.... although it is likely that the original red cloth was a throwaway pawn)

Waiting for their words while thinking that way, but the redcloth men don't even look like they're saying something to Ray's words.

Some of them are looking at each other, but that's all.

What are you gonna do about it? Seems like you're saying, and as for Ray, he shows some frustration with that attitude.

"What's up? Who asked you, and that's something I can't even tell you?... Tell you what, this response will determine what happens to you. Do something with that in mind."

That's what Ray said, but there's no more right for Ray to do this to the redcloth men than he didn't actually run into the sight of destroying the dirt wall.

So much so that I can stick it out to the guards that it's former redcloth men?

But the redcloth men know full well what character Ray is, not to mention something like a strange sense of oppression from Ray right now.

In fact, that's a mild kill, but none of the redcloth men are strong enough to understand that.

"Oh, that's..."

"Hey, hey, can I tell you something!

One in the red cloth couldn't stand the tension that put Ray in front of him and tried to open his mouth, but the man on that side tells him like he was confused.

It's obvious that the person we were hiring isn't the only one, so I can't help but think that if we talk about it here, we might see something terrible later.

But for a man who tried to open his mouth, if he were told which one he was afraid of, who might appear in retaliation in the future, or Ray, who is currently in front of him, it would be the latter overwhelmingly.

And most importantly...

"It was the guy who hired us to order him to run with it or something. I've never seen anyone hire us for real! Besides... my people are gone at some point..."

There must have been something else that others thought about the man's words, that his companions were also disappearing.

Those who had their gaze of dissatisfaction against the first man to open his mouth also remain silent beyond that.

"My people disappear? Isn't that what happened when the guards simply caught me or decided I couldn't hang out with you any more and disappeared from before you?

"Oh, yeah. Until yesterday, we talked about it, and it disappeared. That happened so many times."

The look on the face of a man desperately telling that doesn't seem to me to be telling lies or assignments.

It's obvious you're saying that from the bottom of your mind, no doubt.

(People disappear, right?... In the first place, I don't even know how these redcloth people have been amazing, but they all lived together as far as listening? Well, it's not like I don't know that either)

One by one, even if it's a small disturbance, make it like every day... no, I've caused more than that.

That way, even if you wear a very noticeable red cloth, it's no surprise that someone comes out with a gaze other than that red cloth.

In fact, the man who complained about Ray in front of the dirt wall, because he remembered the face of the red cloth.

Above and beyond that, I'm pretty sure the redcloth folks didn't go and walk as they please.

Especially now that Gilm doesn't have anyone coming from or going to another city because of the fact that it's winter... not that it translates, but people still get in and out very little.

Still, there are more of them than usual due to the construction of additional buildings, but there must have been people who noticed even when they saw the redcloth people.

"I see. Then you guys lived somewhat together. Then how did you get food and all that stuff? I figured the guy who hired you guys to bring that, too?

"Yes."

If you'd given me this far already, I guess you'd have decided that no bad excuse would have worked.

No one in the red cloth could disturb it, even if the first person who tried to confess to Ray said so.

"So there's no one here to bring that food? If that's the case, you know what's going on?

That's what Ray asks, but the redcloth man shakes his neck to the side to deny it.

"There's a guy like that, but he's not here. We're not all here."

"Then who's leading you guys?

Red cloth is not as good as imitating it to others, and there are many of my strong ones.

If such people get together, they will naturally get into fights, but there is no such thing now.

... even though it may have been argued with the group I met Ray in front of the dirt wall before it got into a fight.

Either way, Red Buddha, including the man who was exchanging words, turns his gaze on one man to Ray's words asking if anyone should be entrusted with the leader.

That, surprisingly for Ray, is a man who doesn't look particularly prominent in red cloth.

But when the surrounding gaze... and Ray realizes that his gaze has been directed at him, he steps forward.

Wonder and it seemed like that step had increased the presence of a man.

As a matter of fact, the others around the man did imitations such as shifting away from nature and clearing the way.

"Nice to meet you. I lead these people once, I say Granger."

Ray could also see that that was the obvious difference from the rest of us in the trick of saying that and carefully bowing his head.

"I ask you, are you part of the red cloth? Or are you one of those people who hires red cloth?

"Right. I was wondering if it would be difficult to be honest. Specifically, is it the middle of something like that?"

In the middle? and Ray in doubt, but with his gaze he urges Granger to stay ahead of the words.

Granger's has also decided that if he imitates himself poorly here, he will be captured by Ray... no, in some cases he will be seen worse.

I don't even show him how to hide it in particular, and I'll keep explaining.

"I'll tell you first, I'm not part of the red cloth. I was hired to let these people do their job properly in this case."

If you look at Granger telling you so, there is something subtly convincing about the language as well.

As far as Ray knows, the red cloth was all coarse in character, and no one worded it like this.

It is possible that there may have been such a person in the red cloth, beyond knowing all those who belong to the red cloth.

But Ray is the only one convinced by Granger's words, and the other redcloth men turn their gaze at Granger like they don't believe it.

(No one has ever spoken of it before, even though they've all never seen it. So, the redcloth guys were hidden by their employers, but isn't that why they were gathered in one place?

At the end of Ray's gaze, which I doubt so... the man kept grinning without looking particularly concerned about what was going on around him.
