"Always, then. That's all the trees that have been felled for now. I think I'll be able to bring some more over time."

Saying so, while not entangled by the alchemist, Ray leaves the premises of that building with Seto.

After harvesting Trento's forest trees, they undergo magical treatment here by the alchemists.

As a result, Trent Forest trees, which should be just trees, have great performance as building materials.

... No, treating the trees growing around it in the same magic doesn't make it a fine building material like Trent's Forest tree, so it's not exactly very, but it can't be called just a tree.

All in all, those alchemists with that much skill, but with that skill, they are either strong in habit or honest in their emotions... for Ray, they weren't the kind of people who wanted to get involved with each other much from themselves.

Especially now, there's one case of Lorolnora and Zozo and the others.

With that in mind, I can't deny the possibility that you would be asked to get Lorolnora, Zozo's nails and body hair.

Ray walked away quickly because he didn't want such a hassle.

"Gru?"

Are you leaving already? and a throat-beating ceto.

Ray opens his mouth as he strokes such a ceto.

"Right. Better get back to the Trent Forest as soon as you can."

The only ones here are Ray and Seto, no other faces.

That's why Zozo's figure following Ray wasn't even here.

From Trento Forest to Guild, there is a huge difference between traveling in Seto and traveling above ground in a carriage or something.

Because of the circumstances around it, Ray left Zozo in the Trento Forest and rode the flying Ceto to Gilm.

Naturally Zozo showed a will to go with Ray, but Ray dismissed it considering the speed of travel.

Still, Zozo insisted that he wanted to go, but if Ray severely rejected him, he couldn't argue with it, and in the end he would choose to wait on the spot for the most part.

I needed to get back to the Trento Forest as soon as I could, more than keep Zozo waiting like that.

In the worst case scenario, there is no denying the possibility that Zozo will come running to Gilm for Ray.

Most importantly, Zozo may run faster than normal, but not very fast compared to Seto's speed of flying through the sky.

Then, naturally, Ray and Zozo would go wrong, and Zozo seeking Ray could cause trouble.

In a nutshell, Zozo remains wearing an obedient necklace that would otherwise only be attached throughout the city.

It was a measure to prevent Zozo from being attacked by an opponent who did not know Zozo's special characteristics or that he had been tamed by Ray.

"Grrrrrrrrrr"

Seto sounds sorry for Ray's words that he will be back soon.

If you tried Ceto, you would have liked to stop by some stall to eat if you could.

"Hey, Seto's hungry, too, so why don't you stop by some store for a little while?

Ray tried to walk away from the spot with Seto, but gazed at a familiar voice that sounded unexpected.

Then there was the figure of the person as expected.

"Mileyne, are you good at your job?

"I'm off today.... I'm back from a long job, so I need a wrapped day off."

I have a few excuses. I added that it was Mileyne, but I thought so but it would be a late act if Seto didn't want me to be seen by a woman who doesn't work and plays.

Nevertheless, that word is never wrong.

Mileyne did the job of escorting Guild personnel to countries far from Guild.

That's the month-by-month job, even considering it was snowing and being stopped along the way.

That's all I got done with my job, so nothing strange about taking some convoluted time off.

"So I came to see Seto because I was on vacation."

"Correct. Hey, when I met you in front of the guild, I couldn't play with Seto enough. So I thought I'd be here today... No, I guess not."

"Don't be. I have to get to the Trent Forest from now on.... or even though you were looking for Seto, you found this place a lot"

Mileyne's obsession. Don't be afraid, and I think Ray is smudged.

In fact, this is not the kind of place Mileyne would prefer if it were normal.

It is a place to magically treat the trees that have been felled in the Trento Forest, but there is little need to go out of your way to get here if you try to make it irrelevant to that one.

Despite such a place, Mileyne came this far in search of Ceto, so it would be more impossible to be surprised by that.

(You're not using any weird magic items, are you?... Miraine wouldn't be surprised if you used the majority of the rewards you earned for this escort request to make a setraderic magic item)

In fact, Mileine had previously contributed too much to Seto and ran out of money, and her companions forced her to pull her to a request… and so on.

Despite having top notch strength and visibility among the young adventurers in the Guild.

Just having precedents, it wasn't surprising to pour gold into such magic items.

"What? Did you think I'd buy Seto some kind of stall for you?

"No, were you listening to me?... Haven't you heard?"

Obviously, Mileyne didn't look like she was listening at all to Rey's earlier question about why we found out here.

Were you listening, or weren't you really listening?

Whatever the reason, I don't think Mileyne is very much of an armed adventurer right now.

(Well, even on vacation. I'm talking about it, so I guess that's okay.... you want to stop by the stall? But until I got here, there was a baked udon stall.... given the Zozo thing, I can't take much time though)

Thinking of it as baked udon, Ray finds himself a little hungry, too.

"I don't have much time, but do you want to stop by the stall for a minute? Miraine's coming too, isn't she?

"Of course."

Earlier I was listening to Ray, but Mileyne, who can listen well if it's about Seto, responds that way immediately.

Even though he has a slight grudge at how Mileyne is doing, Ray takes Seto and Mileyne to the stall... and before he even walks enough, he sees the stall.

The stall owner opens his mouth with a happy grin when he finds out it was Ray and Seto who came.

... It's not weird that Mileyne is also called a beauty, but as a stall owner, Ray and Seto... I guess I would have been happier to have Ray who would have bought a ton of dishes more precisely.

"Welcome. Our baked udon is delicious because he's the guy who's been making it popular lately"

"Huh? Is there a fashion or something about how baked udon is made?

Mileyne asks the stall owner in unexpected ways.

I guess Mileyne, who has just recently returned to Gilm, didn't know about the circumstances around it.

But Ray knew how to make the fashion.

That was made by the stall owner who had previously invited me to the marina's house to cook the udon thoroughly, steam it using liquor, season it and then mix it with vegetables...

The very appearance of the dish that can be done is not so different from that of a regular grilled udon.

But if you actually try that grilled udon, one stage more than a regular grilled udon... in some cases there is a difference in taste more than that.

That would be obvious from seeing how thriving the shopkeepers' stalls were thinking about how to make this.

And how to make baked udon can be the same if you look at it.

Especially in this case, there's some special cooking method... because that's not the kind of cooking method that takes years to train.

In addition, the owner of the stall also said that if there were to be many delicious baked udon stores, if asked, he would teach the cooking method without hiding it in particular, so naturally the cooking method spread to many stores serving baked udon.

"I do. Well, if you try it, you'll see."

To Ray's words, the shopkeeper starts preparing the baked udon with a grinning grin.

Cut water off the boiled noodles and see the noodles start to sauté meat and vegetables as they are spread over the iron plate to show how surprised Mileyne is.

Sometimes the cooking from then on was different from making baked udon normally, and every time I saw it, Mileyne was surprised and impressed.

When you have the baked udon served on a plate that you can do so and eat it with a fork......

"Delicious."

The only thing that came out of Mileyne's mouth was that one word.

I live in Gilm, so naturally Mileyne has also eaten baked udon before.

But the grilled udon I had before and the grilled udon I just ate were clearly different.

"Right? Well, it takes a lot more work to make than regular baked udon, so it's pretty tough when you have more customers.... Seems like Seto's happy for you."

Seto, who eats baked udon served on a plate he placed on the ground, was happily throbbing, and it was obvious that he thought it was delicious.

In the end Ray buys a lot of baked udon at that stall.

Naturally, I have trouble eating just baked udon, so I pay for the dishes.

I was hoping that would be the case for the stall owner, but still it was an unexpected sale, and he was screaming gladly. And...

"Bye, Seto. Say goodbye around here.... Two loved ones are torn apart by fate... exactly, this is a trial!

"No, it's not that big of a deal."

Isn't Seto alone? The penetration, neither does Ray.

Because I understood that if I made such a penetration, Mileyne would undoubtedly rebel.

It was also significant that Ray would not be harmed in any way by Mileyne's words.

"Grrrrrrrr"

See you later, and Seto rattling his throat against Mileyne.

If you try it on Ray, Mileyne's attitude may seem a bit daunting, but if you try it on Ceto, Mileyne is the opponent who plays with herself, so she's not particularly dissatisfied.

Now if Mileyne had scorned Ray, she would never have missed Seto or this far against Mileyne.... Well, sometimes I listened to Ray.

But there's nothing like Mileyne scorning Ray.

"Ray, I know it's dangerous, but be careful."

Miraine's words to say so are one that Ray is currently involved in… It seemed like he was talking about Lorolnora and the Zozos.

Most of all, many see that Ray took Zozo, who Tamed, to the Lords' Hall.

So, naturally, it wasn't strange that the area was rumored, and it wasn't strange that the rumor was in Mileyne's ear.

"Oh. Next time I get a chance, I'll introduce you to Seto's people."

In a one-sided setting, Seto is also supposed to have been taemed by Ray, and Zozo is also treated as having been taemed by Ray showing his power again.

In fact, Tame is more than a thousand different ways to do it. If Tamer says it's a fine way to do Tame, we can only be convinced.

In Zozo's case, I'm pretty sure it's the truth that I swear allegiance to Ray who beat me rather than being taemed out of that high intelligence...

Nevertheless, there was no way you could tell that if you tried to be a stranger, and it was still true that it was quick to show that it was Tame.

... if Zozo remembers the words and is told he was being taemed, he might feel bad though.

"Really? Well, if you think it's Seto's junior..."

Mileyne's words returned do not seem so pleasant.

Miraine's affection is probably due to the presence of Seto.

Also, I've never fought Griffon, but I've fought Lizardman...... it could be huge.

(Around there, you'll actually need to let them see you before you think about it)

While thinking so, Ray splits up with Mileyne, who is sparing Seto a goodbye, and leaves Gilm.

Inside, reassured by Mileyne's failure to say she would go with herself to the Trent Forest.

After that, we arrived in the Trento Forest without taking a few minutes on Seto's back, as usual...

"No, well, yeah. Well... I thought that could happen"

What Ray saw when he arrived in the Trento Forest was the appearance of the green sub-people, presumably newly transferred.
