Legend
2007 Story
"Then don't ask me about Seto"
"Mm-hmm. Yellow likes to play with Seto too. You don't have to worry about that area. Have fun with Ray."
Elaine returns that word to Ray.
Originally, it's not very preferable for a man you love to go to dinner with another woman.
But this time it's Kenny.
Elaine, too, has met Kenny before and admits to his existence.
Most importantly, Kenny would be a little more difficult as Ray's opponent than Elaine, Marina, or Vihera.
Elaine and the three of them have a long life span with Ray.
In comparison, Kenny, the beast man, has no significant difference in lifespan from a normal human being.
"Seto, why don't you stay and play with the porn?"
"Gru!"
Following Elaine, Ray speaks to Seto.
Seto, who was called out, squeals his throat when he finds out.
If you try Ceto, it was a shame you couldn't stay with Ray, but I'm also happy to be able to play with the yellow.
That's why I followed Ray's words honestly, too.
... Now, if I had decided to leave it in the wheat pavilion quarters at dusk, I would of course not have done anything to resist it because of Seto's character, but I would still have missed him a lot.
"Cu! Cu!
"Grrrrrrrr!"
The yellow, flying to Seto's side, squeals to play quickly.
Seto, too, sounded his throat gladly at the words of such a yellow, and the two began to run through the garden of the marina's house to each of them.
It was Ray watching such a chase, but he returns to me with Elaine's voice.
"Ray, you can't keep Kenny waiting, can you? You should go early."
"Hmm? Oh, right. Then don't ask for Seto."
"Um, I'll take care of it"
Exchange words briefly, Ray leaves the marina's house.
That's how I walk the aristocracy...
(I knew there were more people looking around)
I see soldiers hired by nobles, or adventurers hired on a temporary basis, walking around the noble city and think so.
Nevertheless, this would be irrelevant.
Gilm today had many coming for work.
Some of those gathered that way are, naturally, somewhat uncomfortable, and mixed with others such as sneaking into noble mansions and working thefts...
That is why the nobles each look around in their own mansion and in this way so that no one suspicious enters the aristocratic city.
Nevertheless, hiring adventurers naturally costs money.
It was only natural that when it came to hiring a credible adventurer who could be entrusted with such a job, rather than additional construction, he would also need a lot of compensation.
The neighborhood also had various negotiations between nobles of the same faction, or between nobles with whom the faction had a friendly relationship, even if they were different, and the situation was as it is today.
Adventurers who look around here are naturally wary if suspicious people are in aristocratic neighborhoods, and in some cases do things like listen...
"Oh, Ray. It's unusual to be alone. What happened to Seto?
That's how the adventurer who was looking around calls out when he finds Ray.
I guess I spot Ray wearing a dragon robe in the absence of Seto because he has more than a certain arm and most of all knows about Ray.
Naturally, the adventurers who are trusted and hired by the aristocrats of the aristocratic city have been in the Guild for a long time... that is, those who have known about Ray for a long time.
... Most of all, those who gather some information on coming to the Guild will naturally know about Ray's existence.
"I have a little promise to make. I'm going all over town."
"Right. There are more people and more suspicious people these days, so be careful.... what a rank C adventurer I would say to Ray with an alias"
All the other adventurers around him were laughing at the lit laughing adventurers.
"Watch out for suspicious people. Bye."
That's how he exchanges words briefly, breaking up with the adventurers around him and leaving the aristocracy.
If you get out of the aristocracy, it's all over the city that's already familiar to Ray.
Most of all, it had become quite busy due to the increased influence of people.
On top of that, there are times when it is time for work to be done, and the number of people around the city who finished their work a little earlier was even increasing.
Walking around the city like that...
"Hey, I'm waiting for people! That's why I can't hang out with you! Ok!?
When I approach the cabin where I was meeting, I hear voices like that.
The voice was obviously a familiar one for Ray as well... and most importantly, it was also the voice of the person we were meeting here.
"That being said, nobody's here. I'll take your friend with me when he gets here, okay?
"Hey... if you don't mind, I'm gonna get mad."
"Shh, I'm scared. If such a beautiful sister pisses me off, I'll cry."
"Ha ha. I'm not saying it looks good on you."
Listening to such a conversation, Ray gets even closer to the trinket shop.
Then, there was the sight as expected.
Three young men numbered Kenny dressed in private clothes.
(Can't get it together, help? It's not funny how time goes by like this)
While I thought so, the moment Ray tried to take a step...
"You know, I'm going on a date. It's not just like you guys, it's more awesome. I'm in trouble if they make a weird mistake, so will you just go home?
"Mm-hmm. Here!
Kenny, who uttered half provocative words, was also a detour, but even for that Kenny, he didn't think he was going to suddenly be beaten with his current words.
I only got a surprised look for a moment... but in the next moment, when I dodge a man's fist with a supple movement characteristic of the feline family, I grab his arm as it is to control the flow of power and throw it.
Throw using enemy attacks like aikido.
The battered man is slapped to the ground with his own power, not even knowing what happened to him.
"Gu!"
"Become!?... this woman!
Seeing my buddy get slapped to the ground, one of the two remaining hits Kenny reflexively on this one as well... with the same result as the first man, naturally.
"You know, this kind of escort is a must as a receptionist for the Adventurer's Guild? Sometimes you fight adventurers."
To that one word, the two people who are falling on the ground and one who was still safe turn a flashing look.
"Guild's... receptionist?
"Well. We're dealing with adventurers, so we have to be strong enough. At least you can't do anything about it. Okay, me?
Kenny told me to tease him so, but the men can't argue with anything more than just being shown their strength.
You can only take a forceful attitude because they are weaker than you.
... If it weren't for the Guild, the men might have made a big face to some extent.
"Well, if you punish me for this, don't play, work hard.... Ah, Ray, you."
You noticed Ray when you were done telling the guys, Kenny calls Ray's name with a happy face.
There was nothing there to remind the men that they were preaching a few seconds ago, and the expression of a maiden in love was exactly what it deserved.
The way Kenny looks that changed in an instant is a sight that isn't very much but doesn't seem real if you try to be the guys who have been lightly defeated...... all you can do is just gaze at Kenny and Ray.
"Were you taking it in?
"It's okay, nothing. It's not like there was anything in particular.... and more than that, it's time to go. It's time, Ray, and you're hungry."
"Right.... So, shall we? But before that.... Yeah, I'm not seeing Kenny in personal clothes for the first time either, but I feel like it's been a while since I've seen Kenny in anything other than a guild uniform"
That wasn't a compliment or anything, it was just a word Ray said purely because he thought so.
... To be precise, if this is how you meet a woman, you should praise her for her outfit, because she had seen it in games, comics, cartoons and other things when she was in Japan.
And it's also huge that it's very rare to actually see Kenny in his personal clothes.
Kenny seems happy with the words of Ray like that... that's what makes me smile happily from the bottom of my heart really.
It's been a long time since I've been on a date with Ray, and Kenny was naturally concerned with the outfit.
After Ray and I broke up at the guild, we rushed to finish what was left of the job, we finished taking over with the receptionist who came to replace us, and when we got home, we got dressed.
Ray didn't know that much, but I still understood Kenny was different.
"Heh heh, Ray, I'm glad you're happy. I bought these clothes a while ago, but I didn't get to wear them."
That being said, in Kenny's sight with a grin, the three figures earlier have already disappeared completely.
No, it's accurate that two people are still down on the ground, and one can't escape from this place because his people are in such a state.
But if I tried Kenny, my date with Ray was dozens, hundreds of times more important than those three already.
"Really? Well, I'm glad you made it."
Spring and similar outfit to a piece dominated by greenery.
Hate and Ray are not familiar with women's outfits, so I didn't know if that was really the kind of clothing they call a piece, but Kenny, who is provocatively opening his chest so that he can see it in the Alliance uniform, looked a lot more important to wear.
Nevertheless, the unexpectedness appeared fresh to Ray.
(Good)
Kenny, who felt surprised at Ray's gaze, doesn't put it in words or expression, but in his heart he poses as a gut.
I actually bought these clothes when I went shopping with Lenora before, but I never wore them before.
Of course, that wasn't like Kenny going out of the city for a single line of work... it was purely the only reason I was going to wear it when I was on a date with Ray.
"Yeah, right. Besides, the shops you're going to are basically hard to find, so there's nothing crowded about it at this hour. Because of this, Ray, I'm going out with you, and why don't you stop by the various stores?
If they say so with a happy and anticipated gaze, Ray can't say no either.
Or if I had any business, I wouldn't have talked about it, but right now I didn't have any business in particular hurry to do something.
That's why Ray nods lightly at Kenny's words.
"Okay. So, what kind of store are we stopping at? If we don't hurry up a little, we'll have a lot of people coming home after work.... Well, if you're tired on your way home from work, few people will be able to afford to stop by the various stores"
"Um, yeah. In the meantime, why don't you stop by the shed there?... I've been a little annoyed by one thing right now."
With a slight smell of light, Kenny once again turns his gaze to the two sleeping on the ground and the only man standing in those two companions.
Because they actually experience Kenny having powers that don't suit their appearance, the three men turn Kenny's gaze and no longer speak.
Ray follows Kenny as he turns a frightened glance at such men.
(If you're an adventurer, yet, if you've come here because you normally want a job, do what you should have done honestly....... oh did these people get together and feel like last year's red cloth)
When you go into the trinket store thinking about that...
"Whoa!
Inside the store...... no, I hear a surprise when I see there was a ceto wood carving doll in the center.
I knew they were selling Seto wooden carving dolls in this store, but that was only a wooden carving doll the size of a palm.
What surprised Ray when he saw it was a giant wooden carved doll, like a meter or so long.
When I get here, I even feel like I deserve to call it a wooden statue, not a wooden carving doll.
"... again, big one"
"Oh, that? Sounds amazing."
In contrast to Ray, Kenny had a laugh that the prank was a success.
