Legend

"Ray."

"Huh!?

Sleeping Ray wakes up quickly from being called by his name.

Ray wakes up very badly when there is nothing usual.

But if this were to be some sort of emergency, Ray would get better asleep as much as he wanted to see what his usual poor sleep was.

I woke up. Ray looks around quickly.

And I notice the marina is nearby.

Open your mouth, deciding that the voice earlier was that of the marina.

"What's up? Is something wrong?

"No, I'm not. But it's time for you to wake up. I don't know what they're gonna do today, but it's usually time to come."

"Uh... right"

To Marina's words, know it's not an emergency and relieve.

At the same time, obviously, I realize that I slept better than usual, but at midnight I was suddenly woken by Seto's squeal, and then immediately came to the Trento Forest to find the Tower of Birth, explore it, and join the marinas...

It was only in the morning that I was able to sleep again because of all the things, really many things, and given that, it's not strange to be asleep until this hour.

"There was some spiritual magic in the marina, but I guess that's why it was so easy to sleep because it's in the building"

Ray slept on the ground floor part of the birthday tower.

Specifically, it's a short walk into the tower.

I guess that's why I felt better sleeping than sleeping outside.

Ray had a magic tent, but still sleeping here is almost as close to becoming.

... Though I have slept directly on the floor and some people around me seem to be hurting my body.

There are many such people, especially knights.

The armor I wore naturally when I slept was undressed and asleep, but it's not uncommon to camp if you're an adventurer, and it's not uncommon to lay a cape on the ground and sleep on it.

However, if you are a knight, there is no such experience… but it is also true that there is not much experience.

When camping, it's not uncommon to take a solid camping bedding.

I guess that's why I'm not very used to sleeping directly on the floor like this.

"Right. But unlike home, I won't keep it that long. That's what I've been working on all day..."

"Just for the night, I wish I could do something about it"

It's more than spring now, the night is warm during the day anyway.

Of course, even in the spring of the season, sometimes it gets cold as if it suddenly turned back to winter, or in some cases it snows, albeit slightly.

But still, it was still the night that was the problem in this case, more than basically having some warmth during the day.

Birth towers also have large children and eggs.

"Um, but you didn't use spiritual magic or anything, especially like me, in the Grand Dragonian Empire, did you? Then I think we can live without a problem."

"Really? Then... hmm?

Ray, who was talking to Marina, overhears the noise he inadvertently hears from the outside.

Although the tower of birth is blocked from the outside by the door. Under the influence of the transfer, part of the wall… perhaps the part connected to the castle is as if it had been slipped through with a spoon or something.

As a result, there is a direct connection with the outside, from which the outside sound is also heard to some extent, such as if the door were supposed to be blocked.

(If this birthday tower is here all the time, that wall hole will need to be managed. If you just cover it with cloth or something, animals and monsters are going to come in normally)

Trent Forest, where there were no animals or monsters before, but now there are quite a few animals and monsters.

It was certain that if such animals and monsters were to come into the Tower of Birth from holes, it would be all kinds of unsavory.

Beyond that, that hole needs to be blocked with something more sturdy, not like a cloth.

(Like, Trent Forest Tree?... No, no, if you can afford that, that's what you have to give to the alchemists)

Even though, Trento forest trees are largely used in the Guild as building materials.

Besides, it's about this birthday tower.

With this happening, it was easy for Ray to predict that the alchemists would want Trento forest trees more than ever before, than it would be difficult to cut Trento forest trees.

I honestly can't nod as Ray if he asks me if I can use Trent Forest Tree like that to plug the hole in the wall of the Birth Tower.

... In the first place, some of Ray's mysteries are rocky.

Also, even in the sense of wood, it was not logged in the Trento forest, but some wood in general.

If we're going to block the holes in the walls, we're just going to have to use them.

"Ray, aren't you going?

I guess Marina noticed the voices she heard from outside the tower, too.

Ray nods at the words that prompt him to do so.

"Right. Can't you even think about it here?"

Nodding at the marina's words, Ray leaves the tower of his birth.... not through the hole in the wall, of course, but through the door.

That's how Ray out there saw Seto and Yellow eating a sandwich happily.

And near Seto, there are the appearances of Mileyne and Johanna.

As a Seto lover, Ray was slightly surprised that there were two top-two figures among the guilds, but considering that Seto was there, I can even convince Ning Ro that they were there.

Most of all, I have doubts that I would come here on my own because I would be busy doing a lot of work on the construction of the new building.

Mileyne is one of the promising stocks among the young adventurers of Gilm.

There was a hell of a man in his generation named Ray, so he's less pronounced than before... but rumors are circulating that his abilities are definitely top-notch among young people and ranking up close.

And Johanna is very good at directing those whose strengths as individuals do not extend to Mileyne, but who nevertheless have more than a certain strength and, above all, are partying.

... Johanna is partying with those Ray acted with during the civil unrest in the Bestian Empire, which is why he had a strong bond with the battlefield together.

Not as good as Mileyne, Johanna is definitely an adventurer on the market these days, too.

"Ah... I'm glad you guys are here, but should I work?

To Ray's words, the two people who were focused on Seto look back at Ray, as they returned to me.

"Ah, alas. Not Ray. Were you there?

Mileine tells you as if to mislead something obviously.

Ray, who saw it, presumably came this far without saying anything to his people.

Sulnin, the wizard, who is said to be Mileine's external conscience.

Usually that sulnine acts as a stopper for Mileyne, but there's no such thing as that sulnine here.

Nor was there any appearance of Ekril, a party member other than Sulnin.

I mean, I was sure Mileyne came here by herself.

Johanna was one of them, but Johanna has no one to be a stopper like Mileyne.

Instead, there's nothing like running to Mileyne.

"Oh, there he is. I was just getting up. So, did Mileyne leave Sulnin?

"Ahahahahahahahahahahahahaha! Missed it!

After a dry laugh, if you immediately look at that lowering of your head, it will prove how afraid Mileyne is of preaching from Sulnin.

Even from Ray's eyes, there was a sermon that Sulnin would make Mileyne, so I don't know how Mileyne feels about it.

That's why, for now, this is the occasion... Ray, who tried to say so, looks at the newly approaching carriage and turns his pitiful gaze to Mileine.

"Huh? Hey, what is it? It's like looking at a livestock that's going to be killed..."

It was a bewildered look Mileine, but I guess she guessed something with the sound of the carriage she heard from behind her back. Gently...... turn around with the desire that if you can, you stay out of anticipation.

In such Mileine's gaze was the sulnin on the carriage's podium.

Though Sulnin is not doing your thing, he is sitting next to you.

Such a sulnin has a grin that his eyes are not laughing, and he is staring at Mileine.

Looks like you deserve the expression "mad" to see.

In fact, Ray's eyesight showed that blood vessels were emerging in the hand holding the wand.

As for Ray, who has seen the sight of Sulnin swinging his wand down Mileyne's head over and over again, I just hope Mileyne doesn't get slaughtered.

... I don't think I can help, even if it's less.

"Ray......"

That's why Ray softly shifts his gaze away from Mileyne, who comes looking for salvation.

Because I don't want to get caught up in Sulnin's sermon.

"Hey, Ray!?

Seeing Ray like that, a scream comes out of Mileyne's mouth.

I guess that's what you thought you could say to Sulnin as he approached you exactly.

Mileyne gives a look like an abandoned puppy.

... Only Mileyne, who has a good face and can be called beautiful enough, could be helped by someone besides Ray if she was meant to be.

But... when the carriage stops and Sulnin comes down from your podium, no one thinks of helping Mileyne like that.

And Sulnin, with the unlaughing grin of his eyes, stands behind Mileyne with his wand in his hand.

I know that Mileine also stands behind herself naturally, but I can't turn to the pressure I feel from behind.

"Mileyne, look at me."

It was a calm voice, but the compulsion put in it is immense.

You can't ignore that word, even if it's Mileyne.

Gigigi...... and. In a puppet-like move, Mileyne sees the sulnine behind her.

Still, Sulnin turns a grin with no laughter in his eyes sees Mileyne looking toward him.

Somewhere complicated...... then intense tension fills the surrounding area.

"Uh... the... margin of circumspection..."

"Do you think there is?

Tell him so, Sulnin reaching for Mileyne's face.

At the next moment, Sulnin holds Mileyne's face as an eagle, lifting it.

It's called Iron Claw.

... It is a question of whether the wizard Sulnin can imitate a warrior's face and lift it with one hand.

Sulnin is no stranger to having the appropriate arm strength than he is also an adventurer.

But if they still ask me if I can imitate something like grabbing and lifting Mileyne's face, even though it's a woman - and that's also with one hand - the answer would be no.

Besides, there are wizards like Ray in the world.

Either way, obviously Sulnin's arm strength is up above normal right now, but that's definitely also why Mileyne came here in silence to herself.

"Hey, Sulnin! Wait, wait, wait! Me, woman! Don't imitate me making a woman's face such an eagle!

"That sort of thing, do your job right and come see Seto in your spare time on top of it, then say it. Not at all."

"Because... look, even Johanna's here! Yet why just me!?

"Alas, I'm giving you the right instructions for today, and I've been busy until yesterday, so I've decided to take the day off."

Oh ho ho ho ho, and. Johanna grins deliberately as she strokes Seto.

In fact, that word is never wrong, and I can't complain either because I'm here, after I've already done the work I need to do.

Grunt, and.

Mileine looks to regret Johanna's laughter as she is eagled in the face by Sulnin.

However, having seen how Mileyne is doing, Sulnin can add more strength to his hand, which is eagling at his face.

"Look, I'm coming. We need to talk more closely to Mileyne than we have to."

"Oh, oh, hey, wait, Sulnin! Now Seto... with Seto... you can't leave that bad girl alone with Seto. Whoa!

Soon, it was Mileine who counted Seto as one, not one, but Johanna laughs again, Ohhhhhhhhhhhh when she hears it.

He was Johanna laughing with a winning face, but Ray accidentally slaps Johanna in the back of the head like that.

"Keep it around there. Don't make fun of Mileyne too much."

Johanna's ear held down her head and Ray's voice sounded like a scream.
