"Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. That's it!

The guard, who was the receptionist for those who went inside at the main entrance of Gilm, sounded surprised.

... No, I can just speak out like that, you'd be better off.

Because whoever was actually proceeding to enter the guild on the side of the guards was stopping the movement without even speaking out.

Two... No, what those in front of the front gate saw was a flame floating high in the sky.

It's not just a flame either, it brings death and destruction, it's such a flame.

If it exists in front of you, you just have to shut up and accept death.

Huge chunks of flame, so much so that it seems so just from a distance.

Such a huge flame... falls unexpectedly.

How much shock on earth is there? And where we are, I wonder if the shock will come, and the guard who sits reflexively.

No, the guards weren't the only ones who stood up, as were many others.

But... no matter when or what happens, the shock never comes.

"Fantasy?

Someone's whining voice was also heard in the guard's ear, but no one agrees with it.

I didn't actually see it nearby, but it was still there because of the overwhelming power of the real thing.

Is that an illusion? Even for those who said, I didn't doubt it was an illusion in the true sense of the word, which would mean that's all I managed to put into words.

"This is... hey, dude. What do you think we should do?

One of the guards asks his people.

Is the giant flame that was floating in the sky in your charge or not?

I didn't know that, but still, if you ask me, I snort that I should report it to my boss more than I saw that flame.

"You should let me know upstairs.... but given that there was a flame at that height, you could have seen it from within the guilds"

Nevertheless, the security guard asked the colleague to let him know just in case, and he moved to action to report it to his boss.

"What!?

When he hears the words of his men who have brought the report, Dusker immediately pops out of the office.

Headed out, naturally.

But when I went outside, the flames that were already in the air had disappeared.

"What's up, giant flames and whatnot, where have you been!?

To the question of Dusker, who went out into the garden, the knight who was nearby returned to me and shook his neck beside him.

"I don't know. Supposedly it fell to the ground, but, you know, no sound, no impact..."

To the words of a knight who tells you so, wasn't it a phantom that Dusker saw by those who brought a report for a moment? and question.

Oddly enough, that was with the doubts felt by the guards in front of the front gate, similar to the doubts held by many who knew that all that huge flames had fallen to the ground but no sound or impact.

Nevertheless, Dusker immediately shakes his head to the side.

Because I had something in mind about this case.

The flames appeared in the Trento Forest...... no, from the direction it was where the Tower of Birth was located, where a huge lake had been reported to have been transferred some time ago.

And Dusker knew that Ray was there, even in the sense of watching the lake at the same time, as an escort to the Tower of Birth.

Speaking of Ray, I haven't seen Dusker in person than I specialize in the magic of massive flames that produce flaming tornadoes, but it's not surprising that it produces huge flames like HUGE...... I don't know how to describe it.

No, it's more strange on that side than a normal human being could possibly use such magic. Not surprisingly...... there was myself convinced in 'Because It's Ray'.

It is a fairly well known fact that Ray was originally also a non-standard wizard.

He is very odd to fight with two long objects in each, the Great Sickle and the Spear... which is why he can't prevent it at first sight, because he fights in a way close to the first sight, so some people do not have the image of a wizard.

Together, if it was Ray who created that flame, it would be convincing.

(But why on earth did you imitate such a giant flame? No way, because I was free...... not for any reason)

Dusker and I have known Ray for a long time.

That's why I know how powerful Ray is, and at the same time I don't even think he's going to do this kind of imitation for nothing.

(When that happened, there were enemies that could not be defeated without such magic? The opponent Ray's not going to win by fighting normally? Wait. Is that because of the course of time, the presence that was in that lake?

Even though he originally had some information, perhaps even a mix of speculations, getting to the right answer would be a testament to the fact that Dusker had both a sharp grasp and brains and was competent as a lord.

"Somebody, do people over there and ask me what happened! Ray's the one over there, so you don't have to be afraid!

Because it's Ray.

When the words came out of Dusker's mouth, the knights on his side were not completely relieved, but they still relieved some tension.

As Dusker's men, many see how strong Ray is in the war with the Bestian Empire, so I guess I'm convinced that Ray has something to do with it.

"Okay, I'll go. Ray and I know each other pretty well."

It is not uncommon for Ray to come to the Lords' Hall, and it is quite possible for him to act with the Knight.

That's why many of us had spoken to Ray quite a bit, and some of us ran for him when he went instantly in this way.... And while you're at it, you're not feeling the fear of Ray, or even feeling it, you're not putting it on your face because you know Ray doesn't point it at us without meaning, even if he has powerful powers?

"Right, please.... but don't leak the sights you see over there to anyone but me. All right?"

"Huh? Oh, yes. I don't mind that."

The knight nods as he questions Dusker, who tells him to push in case.

If I tried to be a knight who saw first hand the huge flames that were floating in the sky, I wasn't going to do things like tell people about what happened there.

So why are you pushing so hard?

Only the truly limited know that the lake has metastasized.

Naturally this knight didn't know anything about the lake transfer, and naturally, he couldn't think of anything about the giant slime appearing from the lake.

Sometimes this is the periphery, and even high-ranking monsters must have come out, I just thought so.

Even for that high-ranking monster, Ray used all that huge magic, so it was only natural as a knight to decide that the battle would already be over.

That's all I can say, I trust Ray's prowess.

"All right, go."

In honor of Dusker's words, the knight ran off the scene to prepare a horse.

"Too bad. I'm so sorry. It's a shame from the bottom of my heart."

Vihera was looking terribly sorry for herself, as she said, as she walked all over the city still bothered.

Naturally, the enormous flames created by Ray also looked like Vihera, who was doing a tour around the city.

The height of the flames was even higher than the walls that covered the city, so that's probably what you could see from anywhere in the Guild.

And because I saw a giant flame, I also understood that Vihera also understood that it was Ray's work, and that he fought an enemy that could not be defeated without producing such a flame.... I did.

In that case, it is only natural that as a Vihera who prefers to fight, I would naturally have liked to take part in that fight, and I feel very sorry for it.

"Mmm."

It seems unfortunate, and then a small whine as Büne, who was walking nearby, reaches out softly to Vihera, who is grumbling with frustration.

Others acting together were surprised by the earlier flames, but at the same time, they could not imitate the way they spoke from what was happening in Vihela.

Among other things, only Bühne had nothing to fear from how Vihera was doing... on the contrary, he tried to calm her down and spoke up.

The first adventurer man to be around with Vihera today, suddenly what!? and try to scold Bühne aggressively, and at the next moment he can stop the move by other adventurers who understand the circumstances.

Vihera also noticed that she was having such an exchange behind her back, but exhales heavily at Bühne's behavior.

"Right, I'm sorry. It was sudden, so I overreacted a little bit. Let me ask you something carefully tonight about what Ray fought..."

Sakuraku,.

When meaningful words pop out of the mouth of Vihera, dressed in thin clothes, like what a whore or dancer wears, even a man, but a woman adventurer, blushes breathlessly.

The person who created such a situation continues to say the word without worrying if he is unaware of it or ignoring it, even if he is aware of it.

"Anyway, I'd like to go to Ray's place because I'm a little concerned... a little more until the break, right?

"Mmm."

To the words of Vihera, Bühne nods.

Actually, there was definitely a little more time until the break, but that's because I decided I should still say a little as far as how Vihella was concerned.

And if you take a break, it is true that you are free to act for the time being, and then you can easily imagine where Vihella is going.

With such a view of Bühne, Vihera laughed and waited until her break.

"Ara, what do you think?

"I thought Elaine was right."

Elaine and Arla saw that enormous flame when they were drinking tea in the garden of the marina's house, also paragraph by paragraph in their interview with the nobles.

As always, Ara's brewed tea tastes delicious, enjoys its scent, and now I just thought a sip...... makes me see a giant flame floating in the sky.

At this time, the lucky thing is that Elaine didn't have tea in her mouth?

If it had contained tea in its mouth, or a rainbow by tea could have been produced.

Either way, without creating such a tragedy, Elaine asked Ara about the origin of the flames, and the words returned are the same as Elaine had in mind.

But I guess that's natural, too.

Not so many things, such as stories in the first place, beings that produce all those giant flames.

Even as far as Elaine knows, it's just Ray.

... No, if it's a special form of magic where many people work together to perform rituals, I know a few others, but it's the Tower of Birth that's on the one who created the flames, and Ray's the only one there.

For example, the answer would be like a decided one.

"But what does Ray need to produce that much flame, or what?... Hmm. Ara, what are your plans for today?

"I already have a few nobles who would like to talk to me, but since it's not a big deal, I can either say no here or have it done tomorrow.... there is also the flame of Lord Ray."

Already in Elaine and Arla, that flame was determined by the work of Ray.

"Hmm, then let's go see how it goes. It's a battle on that scale. Maybe we still have enemies."

"Okay. Prepare the carriage immediately."

To Elaine's words, Ara set out to prepare… No, she set out to prepare for her departure.

"Oh? Oddly enough, the spirits are making a scene..."

Having finished treating the injured at the clinic for a paragraph, Marina realizes that the spirits around her are noisier than usual.

Until now, I couldn't afford to pay attention because I was focused on treatment, but I finally realized that after I had some leeway.

"I'll be out a little bit, just call me if you need me"

When you tell those who work around you that, the marina leaves the clinic.

Then many who were outside the clinic saw one place and made some noise.

"What's going on?

"Huh? Ah, Master Marina!? Um... a giant flame suddenly appeared in the sky."

"Huge flames......?

That's what Marina comes to mind when she says it was about Ray, naturally.

In the first place, the direction shown by the man was where the Trent Forest and the Tower of Birth existed, and Ray, who specializes in the magic of fire, was there because it was easy to predict.

(This... I should go, too. Fortunately, there don't seem to be that many injuries today)

So determined, Marina was ready to leave soon.
