Legend

"Well, what the hell are you talking about?

I smell blood.

The old man so told tilts his neck strangely in such a way that he really doesn't know what he's being said toward Ray.

The guards who saw such an old man for a moment wonder which word to believe...... immediately turn a stern gaze at the old man.

For the guards, Ray is a person who has interacted with others and has worked together to solve cases.

That was somewhat daunting, but a lot of people think so.

Not to mention, whatever Ray's character, his ability is undoubtedly the highest substitute in the Guild.

There was no option for the guards not to believe that because such a ray would smell blood from the old man in front of them.

"I'm sorry, but I want you to look inside this mansion."

The guard tells him so, but the old man shakes his head to the side.

"I'm sorry, but I can't imitate that. This one, too, is in this mansion, according to the Lord. More than that, I didn't invite any strangers... even though they were security guards, imitations like lifting them up to the mansion..."

Very, very.

Tell him so, and the old man reveals his determination never to raise those present here to the mansion.

"Heh. Could it be that there are other people in this mansion... that have trouble being seen by our guards?

"No way. There's no such thing. But I cannot imitate the Lord's mansion without his permission."

"I have to convince you that I'm a guard around here."

"Hate and I can't do that. I will listen to you when the Lord returns, so please return for today"

That's what I say, an old man with his head down.

The moment a guard tries to say something to such an opponent, that guard accidentally blows to the side.

"Become!?

He was a guard who suddenly had no idea what had happened, but if you see Ray reaching out next to that guard, it's obvious why that happened.

One of the guards tried to say something to Ray like that, but someone took action before that.

"Ha!

"It's sweet!

An old man who should have bowed his head releases a sharp, fast kick with a sharp exhalation.

Targeted the head of the guard who was next to the guard blown up by Ray, kicked.

That's the kick that would definitely have the power and sharpness to have a skull fracture, even if it didn't rupture your head if you hit it......

But the kick can be stopped lightly by Ray's hand, who came forward to shelter the guards.

Ringing around is the sound of beating the meat to the concrete thoughtfully multiplied.

"... equip your toenails and use the kick to attack, huh? I haven't seen much of it outside of Vihera... but it's a lot of noisy butlers."

Ray, who finds out it's the soles of his feet that are equipped under the pants worn by the old man, tells him so to tease.

But while you do, there's nothing like letting go of your hand grabbing your leg.

The old man gets desperate and tries to wave Ray's hand where, but there's no way his leg is off Ray's hand.

I'm just grabbing it lightly, but I guess that means it's only light for Ray and not for the old man.

In that situation, I guess the guards finally understood what had happened.

Hold down the man whose leg is grabbed by Ray before he is confused and before he checks the situation, and tie him up so he can't move.

This act of tying, even if the amateur intends to tie him up firmly when he does it, often he can get out of it lightly if he is as knowledgeable as a bandit.

However, it is not difficult for guards to tie their joints off so that they cannot escape.

Because I'm in charge, or not long... that's what the guards who tied the old man up at a surprising rate from Ray look around to be vigilant about what's going on around them.

"Gu..."

Nor did the old man think he was going to get caught so lightly, only a surprise voice out of his mouth.

"Well, now it's clear that this mansion is suspicious for the time being... I'd like you to tell me who's using this mansion"

It was Ray asking a tied old man, but there's no way a man would open his mouth.

(Heh. Is loyalty high?... It doesn't look like he's afraid of the top for now.)

Ray squeaks as impressed as he looks at the old man in front of him.

In fact, I lost light because Ray was the opponent, but this old man's strength is quite high.

As proof of that, whatever the first blow I tried to unleash, the second kick to the head couldn't even react to the guards.

Had it not been for Ray on this occasion, the man's blow would have definitely smashed the head of the guard.

This means that, in some cases, the guards could have been dead.

Nevertheless, it is also a life-threatening job to be a guard.

I don't imitate halfway at work, bound by the fact that I've been targeted for my life.

... After work, I guess I'll drink like a bath and distract the fear of death.

"In the meantime, this man feels like he saw it. Whatever he hears, he has no way of saying it. However, the fact that you've attacked me in this way means that maybe there's something in this mansion… as you said earlier, I'm pretty sure there's something that you'll have trouble seeing."

Do you have any objections to Ray's words, the guards nodding at each of them?

If there's nothing I can really show you, it's natural, because there shouldn't have been anything like attacking the guards even if they were sticky.

It was because I saw how the guards were doing and decided I would never leave, that I tried to reduce the number of one person by controlling the lead.

"I'm pretty sure that was never the wrong decision, either. Without Ray, in some cases, we could all have been knocked down here."

Looking at Ray, one of the guards squeals like that.

He was a guard who often dealt with adventurers and had a solid interpersonal training, but sometimes he couldn't deal with it if his opponents were strong.

And this time, the old man he was supposed to deal with was the one he couldn't deal with.

For such a man, the worst mistake would have been to assume that the guards were the only ones in front of him.

It hurts that even looking at Ray couldn't recognize Ray as Ray thanks to his dragon robe if he didn't have as much strength as he could perceive his opponent's strength.

If Seto had stayed with him, he might have recognized Ray as Ray, but unfortunately Seto was currently on guard to see if he had anyone to get out of the mansion with the other guards.

"The problem would be in the mansion. When there's someone else who's as strong as this guy, it's a little... no, it's pretty nasty."

One of the guards groans in regret.

Sometimes you wouldn't have thought you'd suddenly be ambushed, but I'm pretty sure you couldn't react to an old man's blow.

At least, it's impossible to beat an old man one-on-one in the guards here, and we need to get our numbers together.

In that case, it will undoubtedly take some time to examine this mansion.

On the scale of the Mansion, it is more likely that there are hidden passageways, hidden staircases, hidden rooms, etc.

In order to find them, it is necessary, as a matter of course, to find suspicious places, and in order to do so, a number of people will be required.

But Ray's presence as an old man made it harder for the others to act alone or two anyway.

(Or was this guy acting for it, too? Because I'm pretty sure it's a pain in the ass)

A guy named Yearkung, or Ray, turns his gaze to an old man tied up.

You felt Ray's gaze like that, and the old man looks at Ray while he's being monkey-guffed.

I couldn't talk, so I didn't know what I was thinking, but from Ray's eyes it seemed like there was a satisfying color that I did what I had to do.

Of course, maybe that's just what Ray thought, not really.

Anyway, I'm pretty sure this old man's behavior was a pain in the ass for the guards and Rays.

"What do we do? Why don't you call in more guards? Because I think we can do something about the difference in numbers."

"That's not one choice either. But... we need to gather evidence as quickly as we can for this one.... I wish I could get Seto inside the mansion."

He was a guard who would tell him that, but I guess he also understands the guard who said he can't actually do it.

Ning Lo, that was definitely like a joke to relax everyone, including Ray.

"Well, Seto's five senses are sharper than mine. If you can get it inside, it would definitely be beneficial. Though... it's probably going to be a lot of places to break into this mansion"

With resizing, we might be able to reduce the number of places we break to some extent, but Ray wasn't going to imitate that.

Resizing is not that famous for Ceto's skills compared to firebraces.

I mean, it can also be the back of a time of need. … although there are not many occasions where changing the size of the body means so much.

"Right. Then I can't help it. I thought we were the only ones who needed to find out. Besides, the job of finding someone to escape the mansion is important."

If Seto had the five senses, it would not be possible to imitate him escaping Seto's hand with something a little or softly.

"But then what are we going to do about exploring the mansion? If someone like him comes out, there's nothing we can do. I'm sure Ray wouldn't talk about it."

The guards' gaze is pointed at Ray.

No one can imitate denying it more than it was Ray who actually defeated the old man.

... although it was natural to decide that if you tried to be someone who knew Ray's strength, you wouldn't even have to imitate him like that.

"Uh... then it's a compromise. Ray is alone. We... move from two to three. It will take more time than all of us to explore separately, but if we get attacked, we can deal with it to some extent.... and ask the others to help me while I endure. That's all right, right?

In this case, I guess helping is a word directed at Ray.

Ray snorts back at the guard's words because he knows that too.

"Okay. Then I'll check the center of the building. Then there will be no extreme delay wherever someone is attacked. … it is not strange that the center of the mansion usually has an important room or something. I wonder if I'll look into it."

I'm pretty sure Ray has had a lot of experience as an adventurer too.

But, naturally, that skill drops compared to a real guard like that.

That's why Ray said so, but the guards nod back that it's no problem.

"We don't mind that. Something important means that the guy there is strong enough. In that sense, Ray's best bet is to look there."

Everyone nodded at the guard's words, and as a result Ray would examine the central vicinity of the mansion.

Other than that, the guards break up from two to three each and go inside the mansion.

Note that maybe...... there is a real possibility that someone might escape from here, and above all we need to keep an eye on the old man who captured us, so there will be a few left here too.

"Ray, let me know as soon as you find something"

"If you have any documents or anything that might be important, I'll keep them in the mistering. That way, we can check the area later, right?

"... right. But if you forget to put it out and it stays put, we won't be able to find out, so be careful."

The mistering of the ray is dedicated to the ray and can only go in and out of the ray.

That's what the guards told Ray, too, because they knew it.

"I know. Keep a good grip on the area."

As he snorted, Ray proceeded inside the mansion.
