Legend

2042 words

Grimm's face is a skeleton, so he can't understand his expression.

But still, because I have quite a relationship with Grimm, the grimm shown in the orb against him looked somewhere tired.

I somehow understand why I'm tired, Ray, but that's why I find it more likely that Grimm is involved in one of Trent's woods this time around, in the wind.

"Hmm, what can I do for you? I'm pretty busy right now."

"Are you busy with that eyeball material thing after all?

"Hmm. That material has quite interesting properties. I've been doing a lot of research to see if there's any other special properties right now. '

"I guess."

What Grimm got was the material of a giant eyeball monster.

It wasn't just an eyeball either, there were countless tentacles growing around the eyeball, and even a tail that looked a lot like the optic nerve behind the eyeball.

A monster that existed in a space other than this world, had the ability to create a rift in space and interfere with this world, and even had the ability to create a large number of monsters by sacrifice and summon them.

I should say that I was fortunate during my misfortune, when the Rays were sacrificing Red Buddha, because that was a quality sacrifice or a monster about Kobolt.

If a high-ranking adventurer, or alias, had been sacrificed, what kind of monster would have been called in that case?

With that in mind, Ray is even more alert to those eyeballs now.

"Anyway, that doesn't mean I don't care... but I just wanted to ask you something about it and I contacted you. I contacted him yesterday, but he didn't connect at all."

I see. A little enthusiastic about research. So, what the hell did you call Nong for? There's still a lot of research on that eyeball material, so there's nothing we can talk about, is there?

"No, it's not.... Not that I'm not interested."

The moment he says no, he sees how sorry Grimm looked because he sees it, and Ray says he's not in a hurry to be uninterested.

I didn't know if he believed Ray's words like that, or how he seemed sorry he was acting himself, but either way, Grimm looks up and opens his mouth.

'Right. So, we'll talk about it later... so what the hell does your lord want to know?

"As a matter of fact, a few days ago, in the forest of Trent, near Gilm, even the colours of skin, hair and blood began to transfer hostile Lizardman to the Green Man, and to the Green Man. That eyeball also had the ability to interfere with space, so I thought maybe this was happening as a result of Grimm doing some experiments."

……

To such Ray's words, Grimm silences himself for a few seconds.

Ray didn't even know what that silence meant, but anyway, I'll keep talking.

"So, what do you say? Do you have any idea?

'Hmm, unfortunately, you don't know that. So far, no experiments have been carried out that would have affected the area.'

So far, that probably means that we are going to do such experiments in the future… sooner or later.

Nevertheless, if that doesn't seem to be to my detriment, as Ray, I'm not going to say anything about it.

"So, as for the greens and Lizardmans who have been transferring over the past few days, it's fine that Grimm has nothing to do with it?

'Um, no doubt.... but the Green Man?

Grimm is troubled by the term Ray's Green Man… and the explanation of what he is.

It was not only Ray, but others, including Elaine, who showed surprise at the appearance of such a grimm displayed in the orb of the pair.

Only a grimm with the ability to call it Rich Lord, that's what I've lived since Zeppyre was alive... maybe the expression is correct because it's undead, but there's nothing I don't know about the events in this world just for such a grimm anyway... no, it's because I thought so little.

(Did you get my idea that this was moving from another world after all? Well, not that Grimm even knows more about other continents)

Ray opens his mouth as he sees how Grimm is doing.

"Hey, Grimm. Didn't Grimm ever hear about the Green Man or something?

'Um, no. There is no doubt that less is not a species present on this continent'

"... What kind of race doesn't exist in this world, not on this continent?

The moment I said that, Grimm's movements stopped for a moment, and he turned a sharp gaze at Ray.

It's true that Grimm doesn't exactly have eyeballs, but he still felt an intense gaze, albeit over a pair of orbs.

"Huh!?... So, what do you say? You think that's possible?

Though breathtaking in Grimm's gaze, Ray does nothing more than that in particular, and asks Grimm.

Take such Ray's gaze firmly on the grimm on the other side of the orb of the pair...... seconds, or more?

After all that silence, speak up.

I'm not saying that there's no possibility. As you can see from Ray's coming to this world, there is no way of coming from another world to this world '

In Grimm's words, Ray still gives a convincing look.

Behind such a ray, each of the three women had a surprise look on their face.

"Is that... is that true?

In an unexpected way, Elaine asks Grimm.

The other two had the same look on their faces, though not in words.

Even if you know the existence of Ray, you won't believe that it comes so easily from another world to this one.

"I'm not sure that Noun saw him in person."

"But as for the Green Man, there was also Lizardman... is there a Lizardman in the other world as well?

Elaine was followed by a marina who expressed doubts.

I guess it was incredible to have the same monster as this world in a place called the Other World.

Most of all, Zozo and the others are intelligent enough to make a country, so I can't say they're the same as the Lizard Man in this world.

'It's not like there's no possibility... or anything like that. Though...... Ray. Was there a Lizardman in the world where your Lord was?

"No, you're not. On the contrary, there is no elf, no dwarf, no beast man, and there is no magic at all.... No, maybe there was magic, but at least I don't know."

"Ugh."

Was it unexpected that it was so different, Grimm sounds intrigued.

Unlike such a grimm, the three of Elaine, Marina and Vihera don't look particularly surprised.

All three of us, I guess because we heard about the world we were formerly from Ray sometimes.

Nevertheless, when I heard the story of the former world from all three Rays, I was surprised by a lot of things.

"In the world with Ray, there is no Lizardman? … but the world is innumerable. If so, it's not strange that there's a world there like Lizardman '

Parallel world, parallel world. Ray remembers those words.

Like, for example, the world where Ray ate bread for breakfast and the world where he ate baked udon.

So countless branches of the world...

(No, the concept itself would be different if it were a parallel world to the other)

Uh, I think so.

It's only Ray's knowledge… It's also the knowledge I got from comics, cartoons, games, novels, etc. that I saw when I was in Japan, and it's not academic, but I could still understand that the parallel worlds are different from the other worlds.

"Whatever, reincarnated from another world...... no, possession? Metastasis? It's a little hard to explain, but when I think about it like that, it feels like the Lizardmans are from different worlds."

'Hmm. Although I cannot give a clear reason, will I?... Hmm, that's a little funny. Something like a sixth sense because it's Ray.'

"No, even if they're amused... that's it. I'm pretty sure this Lizardman thing didn't stop by for some kind of experiment or something, did it?

As it is, Ray asks Grimm that, again... and including the final confirmatory meaning, he finds it likely that the odd person will go out of the way.

'Um. I'm investigating that eyeball material, and I'm doing experiments lightly, but still it hasn't turned out like Ray's worried. Nevertheless, it is not the first time that such materials have been obtained, and it is not possible to deny the possibility that there is some influence in the unknown.'

There seemed to be no lies in Grimm's words to tell that.

If you try to be one who knows nothing, you can't help but wonder if you trust the undead that much.

But for Ray, Grimm is definitely someone he can count on.

In fact, I have been helped many times before.

"Right.... Then maybe you can assume that Grimm's material has nothing to do with this one."

"Ray, why don't you ask me about that?

That's what Elaine inadvertently tells me when Ray, who has no clue, looks sorry.

There's more to what Ray has than just a lot of things, and I don't understand what they say about that.

"About what?

"It's a point where words don't make sense. We can only teach words to the tunnels..."

Elaine cuts her words there once and turns her gaze to the grimm reflected in the pair of orbs.

We can't do anything about it ourselves, but can Grimm do something about it?

It was obvious that you were saying that.

Elaine's opinion was also understood by Ray, so she nods small and then speaks to Grimm, who is reflected in the orb of the pair.

"Hey, Grimm. Actually, I'm the Green Man and Lizardman who's been transferring that, but you don't understand the language over here. So communicating will also be a gesture. I'm teaching you words lightly... but I still don't know when I can actually understand these words."

'Huh. Not just Lizardman, but the Green Man can't understand the words?

"It will. I think they speak the same language along with both races..."

More than words don't make sense, it's not necessarily that the Greens and Lizardmans speak the same language.

However, it was understandable that as Ray, who often dealt with both races, it was probably the same word.

... between the Greens and the Lizardmans seemed intentional, because it was huge.

"Hmm.... wait a minute"

With that said, Grimm disappears from the front of the pair of orbs.

I could have guessed Ray would have gone looking for something.

That meant that the status quo could be changed in some way… specifically, that Grimm was likely to have something that would allow him to understand the words of the Green Man or Lizardman.

(If you know that, get in touch with Grimm sooner... oh, no. No, you can't. No matter how much I contacted you yesterday or yesterday, Grimm would have worked hard on his research)

Ray wasn't wrong because he actually tried to get in touch using a pair of orbs, and that didn't connect him in the end.

"This is going to work out."

He nodded to Marina's words as other faces agreed.

Even though we can see Zozo is following Ray, there are still a lot of problems with the word not making sense.

That's why there was something very helpful about Grimm being able to prepare some kind of magic item or something like this

"So, what do you think it is? As far as I'm concerned, I think it's a magic item or something."

"That's probably for sure. Isn't the question what the hell kind of magic item is?

"Hmm...... bracelets or something?

That's what Vihera tells Marina to say, but Ray shakes his neck to the side.

"If you're going to be able to speak the language, don't you need it near your mouth after all? When that happens, necklaces, piercings, collars... isn't that what it is?

"Not off the hook."

What denied Ray's words was Grimm, who was shown again on the other side of the pair of orbs.

In his hand was a tablet the size of which he held with both hands.

"Is that it?

'Um. Not long ago... about a hundred years ago. That's about the magic item I found in the dungeon I dived into. This is a substitute that feels the will of the user and displays it as a letter on this tablet. If it was meant to be, it was used by those who could not speak...'

I see.

Ray nodded honestly and convincingly at Grimm's words.
