Legend

Of those who were attacking the Tower of Birth, the majority were eventually to be captured.

Ray and Seto chased him, and the angry Zozo attacked him with the intention of killing him, and even though those who were protecting the Tower of Birth left only a minimum number to chase him, some of them escaped.

Sometimes the raiders were highly capable, but the biggest reason is still that the raiders fled in all directions rather than all of them wrapped up when they fled.

As for the mood of those who flee, I want to get caught up and run away.

But the raiders were scattered in all directions, not wrapped up and fled.

In that case, the person targeted is likely to be captured and killed, but the others are more likely to escape.

In that sense, the raiders must have been very tenacious.

"So, in the end, you figured out what these guys are like?

Ray is not good at interrogation, even if he can be captured.

If the bandits in the area show their strength and kill a few, they will not hesitate to divulge information, but this time the raiders were the ones to be called even real professionals who are not comparable to the bandits.

That's why Ray didn't break his mouth even if he did a slightly painful imitation, leaving it to someone with the skill of that hand.

"Yes. Apparently, you're a mercenary, not an adventurer"

"Mercenaries..."

As adventurers took part in the war against the Bestian Empire, there is no doubt that adventurers also have a mercenary side.

In that, it was also true that mercenaries are heterogeneous beings.

Basically, people who only take on interpersonal work and don't take things like monster crusade requests.

Many do not register as adventurers because they are mercenaries.

… In fact, there are no guilds like Adventurer Alliance in Mercenaries, so there are quite a few people who register as Adventurers to get an ID card called Alliance Card.

"I hear rumors that many mercenaries are hired as escorts for merchants coming to Gilm, and maybe that's how these people came along."

"That's a pain in the ass. However, if you are a mercenary, you can be convinced of how handy you were when you fled earlier and why you were crossing each other when you were raiding this place."

As Ray had first anticipated, it would have won easily if it had been the bandits who had attacked him.

But it wasn't the bandits who attacked me, it was the mercenaries.

That's why we were struggling so far.

We were fighting while protecting ourselves from being penetrated into the tower of birth, because in this case it would be huge.

"So why have mercenaries attacked this tower of birth?... It may be an important place for Gilm, but it's not that good of a target for the mercenaries, is it? It's Lizardman in here."

In fact, Lizardman is not a Lizardman in this world, but a Lizardman in another world, and on top of that, he is a Lizardman enough to build a nation.

Nor can that be said to be very, but just a Lizardman, when the size of the country will remain unchanged from that of the Kingdom of Mireana.

But Ray seemed weak as the reason the mercenaries attacked the Lizardman in the Tower of Birth, more than a handful who knew the matter.

"Apparently, they made a request."

"... request?

"Yes. Nevertheless, I didn't break my mouth about who asked me to do it"

"Are you saying that the area is also mandatory for mercenaries? If we take the time to interrogate him, can we get him to crack his mouth around there, too?

"What do you think? As for the additional interrogations, I think we should leave them to the guards."

I heard what the adventurer in charge of the interrogation said, what do you think of Ray turning to the knight? and gaze.

Ray's gazed knight opens his mouth with a harsh look.

"If we get the information as quickly as we can, this one has no particular problem. This tower of birth is also a very important substitute for Master Dusker. Zozo and Lizardman are also friendly here. Only such places want to eliminate the danger as soon as possible"

Zozo nods to such a knight's words satisfactorily and joyfully.

Even for Zozo, this birthday tower is an important substitute.

The existence of a knight who cared so much about such a place was naturally a favorable feeling even from Zozo's point of view.

"Then, for now, I mean these guys tie them up, stick them in the carriage, and send them to Gilm"

Everyone who was listening nodded at Ray's words like no objection.

"So, I hope this matter is okay...... why did Lizardman come in so much again?

A knight asks Ray as he sees the Lizardmans getting off the arriving carriage… and most importantly, the gaga of an international larger stature than any other Lizardman.

The Lizardmans were showing a little frustration that the birth tower had been attacked.

Still, it probably didn't erupt because Gaga was keeping the Lizardmans in good shape.

If something happens to Lizardman in this place, they decide that it will ultimately be to their detriment.

It would be from his position as a third prince, around such imitation but judging this one to be a political card.

"Master Dusker decided that only the number of people here would be underpowered to protect the birth tower. If we're going to defend the Tower of Birth, we should let the Lizardmans protect us."

"That's... no, but isn't it a lot unsavory? You can mistake them for your enemies when you bring food or something."

Ray turns his gaze to the zozozo next door that he has no problem with the knight's words telling him like he's confused.

"Zozo is going to stay here, so we can communicate our intentions using a stone slab. I don't know what you're talking about. You can avoid being a fighter.... but considering this one, I'm likely to recognize someone approaching me as an enemy regardless of what they say."

"You can't deny that. I mean, when you know these words poorly, the guy who tries to fool you also shows up?

If the words don't make sense, it's not strange to attack someone approaching the tower of birth without question.

But if the word makes sense, it means that conversation is possible, and if that makes a good mouth a negotiator, there is a good chance that you can fool Zozo.

"Even this, for once, give me the royal end. I'm used to dealing with people with good mouths'

It was Zozo who said that and denied the Knight's worries.

Even though my worried opponent told me I was okay... and he was a knight with a subtle look on his face, as far as Ray could tell, I didn't think Zozo would be so easily fooled.

I'm just worried about one thing...

(Strangely enough, Zozo has sworn allegiance to me, so if they give me my name, I think they're going to fool me lightly.... most of all, you would never forgive someone for using my name to fool you just because you have high loyalty)

In the mock battles taking place at the Marina's house, only Bühne can Zozo win.

You may win if you play a simulated battle with Marina without Spirit Magic, but Marina uses a bow as a weapon other than Spirit Magic, and it's not like you can't even fight melee, but it was a strength to such an extent that you can't call it a real job.

That's why Marina isn't in the mock, but Zozo loses to Ray, Elaine, Vihera... and Ara too.

Most importantly, Ara had a lot of strength originally just to say that she was close to Elaine, but she dived through a lot of battles from the first time she met Ray, and her strength has a strength that was no mistake when she said it was real.

Not to mention that its rigidity is surprising enough for even Ray, and it proves in comparison to the force that Zozo is no match for Ara with simple force.

He was a zozozo who couldn't win anything but Büne in a mock fight like this, but that's just too bad for his opponent.

Zozo has as much strength as he can easily beat, if only to the extent of adventurers around.

If anyone came to deceive using Ray's name, it was an unmistakable fact that the person would have the worst end by Zozo.

"I don't think there are any suicide candidates like that."

"Hmm? What's going on, suddenly?

"No, I thought someone might come out and try to trick Zozo into using my name. But if there was such a guy, it would definitely be Zozo..."

"I'll kill you."

Immediately, that's what Zozo connects to Ray's words without a moment of hesitation.

That's when the knights and adventurers I was listening to emitted so much atmosphere that I didn't know they were leaving.

"It would help if you didn't kill me if you could. One or two hands and legs, we need to get some information."

Ray knew how much Zozo's loyalty was, so he doesn't look particularly surprised, like the other two, and tells him so.

'Okay. If it's Ray's word.'

He seemed slightly dissatisfied, but Zozo said so briefly.

After confirming that, Ray asks what he cared about the knight and the guard.

"With that said, how do you deal with mercenaries? I don't think adventurers do stupid imitations, but that's what they're going to do when they're mercenaries."

"For once, after reporting this matter to Master Dusker, I plan to look into the mercenaries currently in Gilm. I don't think all the mercenaries will turn to this enemy, but we still need to find out what kind of opponents they have."

"Are you a mercenary? Specifically, how long have you been in the Guild?"

"Ask the guards and you'll see. Of course, some people come in here hiding their traits, so I'm sure they won't all know for sure."

Uh, I see.

Ray is convinced by the knight's words.

The guards are, naturally, the ones most familiar with the information around them than they need to go through the guard process to get into the guild.

"Then I guess I can leave you to it. … protect the Tower of Birth with Zozo, Gaga and other Lizardmans, and the adventurers who will remain here."

"Protect there," he said. Order me, please. '

"... ok. Then protect the Tower of Birth."

Zozo greets Ray's orders with joy.

For Zozo, who is intoxicated by the strength of Ray, it must be a joy to follow the orders given by Ray.

Raising his face from a gracious state, Zozo speaks to the other Lizardmans, including Gaga.

Looking at Zozo, I guess, giving an explanation of the current situation and the neighborhood, Ray was called to the knight.

"Ray, it's time for me to take the mercenaries back to the Guild. I want to hand it over to the guards as soon as I can to get the intel, and see how many mercenaries there are in Gilm."

"Okay, please. But then what happens to the replacement knight?

Currently, only one knight in the Birth Tower came last night.

When that happens, if this knight heads to the Guild, there will be no one here.

Of course, it's definitely not that you can't do it without a knight, but still, it's definitely more convenient when something happens to someone with the status of a knight.

Doesn't it taste bad to have that knight gone?

Yes, Ray wanted to say.

"Right. As soon as I get back to Gilm, I'll send my replacement knight here.... Will you tell Zozo about it? If you get attacked by mistake, it won't be a sprinkle."

"Thinking about this one, a lot of people seem to make a lot of mistakes. Whatever Zozo is, it's gonna be a little tough on the other Lizardmans."

There is no other way to create distrust among the Lizardmans than to be attacked by the people of this world once.

Still, what doesn't stop me from believing completely is that Dusker turned his hand on things like protecting the Lizardmans and giving them meals and beds, and teaching them letters and words to communicate with them.

Also, Zozo swore allegiance, and Gaga and I interacted with each other... no, even if we weren't getting our hands on each other, here's Ray beating Gaga in that situation and having a relationship like a concerned friend, because it's huge.

"Okay, I'll take that one, please.... I feel like it's time for the Guild personnel alone to do something about it to the limit. What do you think Master Dusker thinks of that area?

Without the construction of the Gilm, Dusker would have been able to fully concentrate on one of the transfers.

However, it is true that the current guilds are undergoing additional construction and are now concentrating their efforts on you.

Beyond that, there are very few people who can crack it when it comes to metastases.

Isn't that unpleasant?

To Ray, who tells him so, the knight nods with a difficult look.

"I think so, too. But since it's about Master Dusker, he's got to be hitting some kind of hand. As a knight, I only believe in such a Dusker."

That's what he said, and the knights began to prepare the mercenaries for escort.
