The newly-arrived Lizardmans agreed to come under the control of Gaga and Zozo lightly.

Nevertheless, that would be natural.

The five newly arrived Lizardmans need to act on their own if they are not to come under Gaga or Zozo's control.

We're going to act on our own in a completely strange land, a place where we can't even speak.

If we have the strength of Gaga, maybe we can manage on our own.

But that would be extremely difficult if the Lizardmans were told that such imitation could be possible in the present circumstances.

Given what was to come, it was still natural to come under the control of Gaga and Zozo.

So at night… everyone eats with caution at the lake.

Today and today, I pound my tongue on the dish Ray took out of Mystering.

Still, many people check the lake again and again during meals, probably because a large number of lizard monsters came out yesterday during dinner.

"So, what do the new Lizardmans look like?

Ray asks Zozo as he eats stews of mountain vegetables and pork meat.

'I was wondering if there were any particular problems.... I just seemed to wonder what that burning thing was'

"Uh... that one"

What Ray found following Zozo's gaze was a slime that was still burning.

Still no burning appearance, no burning flames extinguishing.

Being at night and now that the sun has disappeared, it serves as a light source.

"So? What did you answer?

"Master Ray burned the slime coming out of this lake. I said I'm leaving you alone now because it still doesn't look like it's going to burn at all. '

"... I see"

Two, Ray remembers some Lizardman turning his awe gaze at him as he prepared his meal - just serving the dish he took out of the mistering in a vessel.

Sometimes he beat Gaga in mock warfare, and it wasn't uncommon for the Lizardmans to turn a respectful gaze on him, but he was rarely turned a fearful gaze.

So I decide that those Lizardmans were probably the Lizardmans who came today.

"In the meantime, you should tell the monsters in the lake to be careful. I don't know how strong the Lizardman you've been metastasizing is, but you're pretty sure he's weaker than Zozo or Gaga, right?

'Right. I was wondering if it would be considerably lower among the Lizard men who have metastasized. It hasn't been that long since he became a soldier,' cause he says. '

"Recruits."

Couldn't you see my strength?

With that in mind, I am nevertheless relieved that there was nothing to intimidate the other person with Seto's appearance and make him act in vain.

Even Ray will have to fight back if the opponent strikes.

I don't know what the other side is thinking more than words make sense, so I wasn't going to do anything like kill you no matter what.

'Yes. So you have a lot to teach'

"It sounds tough, but a lot of guys are happy about it, right?

"I won't deny it."

The Lizardmans, who currently live in this tower of birth, basically have nothing to do.

I had the job of escorting the tower of birth, but it rarely meant that someone would attack me.

There is no reason to do anything more than have a track record of being attacked by mercenaries, but it is nevertheless very significant that there is nothing to be done in the name of escorts.

That's why teaching and training newcomers so much is a great leisure time if you ask me.

(Oh, but given the possibility of monsters coming and going from the lake, can't you be completely alarmed?... Well, with Seto, you'll be able to immediately detect the enemy trying to attack you)

Even if lizards come from the lake, as they did yesterday, they can be immediately perceived only by Seto, who has something like a very high five senses, a sixth sense, and the ability to feel magic compared to humans.

That's why even as Ray, I could leave Seto with perimeter vigilance.

The track record of perceiving the precursor of someone actually shifting over and over again is significant in this case.

"Whatever, tell the lake not to be alarmed. I don't know what kind of monster you still have. The scholars checked it out, but it's still near the shore. With that said, you left, didn't you?

Scholars who preceded the unknown existed naturally followed yesterday to this lake today.

Ray didn't pay particular attention to the scholars, probably because the scholars were more intrigued by the lake than by Ray and Seto showing interest.

Some of the adventurers and Lizardmans also cooperated with such scholars, but Ray and Seto didn't get their hands on you.

'Yes, I took the carriage I brought my supplies home'

"Right.... for once I ask, there's no one left, right?

Scholars are many with strong curiosity.

Less, the scholars who came to this lake were curious.

Otherwise, you wouldn't imitate things like eating fish you've never even seen or touching shellfish you see for the first time.

'They're all home. … some of them seemed to want to stay here'

Such people also seem to have been brought home safely by those who brought supplies.

"Is there a problem then? Then that's enough. Enjoy your meal, Zozo."

"I understand."

As for Zozo, to be honest, I want to be on Ray's side.

But I understand that it's not good to be on Ray's side all the time, so I honestly nod at Ray's words this way.

Seeing Zozo walk away like that, Ray takes a glimpse of the faces he's still eating, after which he takes the spot.

Going, Magic Tent.

Today, I wondered… because I was going to ask Grimm the question of whether there was a chance that something or someone in this Trent forest might be transferring, but I don't know if such a presence had any intent from the other world or was really random.

... It also makes sense to see if Grimm is involved in this metastasis.

Once I asked if it was Grimm's work before, I got the answer that it wasn't the same, but this is also the metastasis... If that also continues to shift out of digit, as far as Ray knows, there is only one person who can do that with Grimm.

That's why I thought I'd ask you again, just in case.

Because there's a good chance that some kind of magic item is acting or has been established as ritual magic before the Grimm realizes it.

Even in that sense, there was good reason to talk to Grimm again.

"Seto, if anyone tries to get inside the magic tent on their own, stop it. If you want to call from the outside of the tent, you don't have to worry about it"

"Gru!"

To Ray's word, I'll take care of Seto! and honking his throat.

After stroking such a ceto, Ray enters the magic tent.

And when you get inside the magic tent, you take out the pair of orbs that are connected to the grimm.

"Grimm, grimm. Can you hear me, Grimm?

After several calls like that, the pair of orbs eventually showed a face already familiar to Ray - a skull to be exact.

"Hmm, Ray? What's the matter with you?

There's nothing particularly surprising about Ray contacting himself.

... I'm actually trying not to put happiness on the table, but I couldn't do better to look at the grime on my skull and split my expression.

"I need to talk to you for a second. You talked to me about Lizardman the other day, didn't you?

"Mm-hmm. Isn't that what you gave me the tablet?

"Oh. I just haven't had a metastasis since then. Instead of being a Lizardman or a Green Man, or a part of the Royal Castle of the Lizardman Country, or even a giant lake in the world itself that wasn't what Lizardman was."

"...... ho"

After a few seconds of silence, an interesting voice sounds out of Grimm's mouth.

It must be very interesting for Grimm, who specializes in metastatic magic, to move from one world to another… not from one world, but from yet another as well.

'Are you sure that you've moved from another world?

"Even less, the Zozos said they didn't know such a lake, and the monsters that came out of that lake have many unknown monsters, and most importantly, the monsters don't have demonic stones"

"Ugh."

I hear an interesting voice coming out of Grimm's mouth again.

I guess it attracts a strong interest in monsters that don't have demonic stones, more than they are undead and classified monsters themselves.

Given Grimm's character, though it was quite possible that Grimm would have attracted interest even if he wasn't a monster.

"For that reason, it's about the metastasis, and I'm going to ask Grimm again. Before Grimm realized it herself, the metastatic magic was actually activated for some reason, or something like that?

"You think Non would do such an imitation?

Grimm looks slightly grumpy.

Naturally. If you try to make it a grim one, because if you don't manage the materials and magic items you have on hand, that's the same thing they said.

You can say it's done to this extent because Ningro Ray is the opponent.

If an unfamiliar opponent had said such a thing, it would not have been strange to imitate that it would have transferred to the occasion and given death.

"I was just asking. There was something about that eyeball material.... then there will be a reason other than that, will you just listen to my predictions?

"I don't mind."

Seeing Grimm nod, Ray mouths what he comes up with.

Somewhere in the Trento Forest… or the Trento Forest itself is transferring beings like Lizardman, the Green Man, the Tower of Birth, and the Lake from another world.

Nevertheless, it is not something that has any certainty, it is only Ray's idea.

Having heard such an explanation, Grimm thinks only a little on the other side of the pair of orbs.

If I tried it on Ray, that was just an idea that didn't seem strange to me to get kicked in the ass, such a Grimm's attitude was just a little surprising.

"... what do you think?

'I can't say it's not possible. Gilm is a periphery, so no matter what happens, it's not strange. In the first place, isn't the Trent Forest where Ray is now a normal forest?

"Right. However, whoever supposedly caused this Trent forest was defeated... I was going to."

Phew, exhaling, I feel once again the irrationality of the land called the border.

It explains everything because it's a periphery.

(Oh, but I'm often convinced for the reason that I'm 'Ray' too, and isn't that so strange about this matter, considering that? Of course, that's not funny)

I think that way, but now it won't matter, so I switch my head.

"When that happens, do you still think this Trent forest is the most suspicious?

"Non can't say anything because he doesn't know the Trent Forest, but if it's possible, it'll be suspicious enough."

For once, should I ask you to come to the Trent Forest and check with Grimm?

I didn't think so, but Ray also knows that the current Grimm is busy experimenting with eyeball materials.

Grimm opens his mouth in front of Ray, who thought so, to force him to come so far...

"Fine. Trent Forest, where your Lord is, is a little interesting. Do you mind if I go do some research from now on?

"Huh? No, I'd be helpful if you did... okay? Didn't you do a lot of research with that eyeball monster material?

That's why I kept you from contacting me, even as Ray.

But to Ray's words like that, Grimm shook his neck sideways saying he had no problem.

"It's also true that the research was a little stuck. As a breather, I wouldn't mind going to see that Trent Forest."

"Are you sure? I don't mind if it helps this way."

'I'm telling you, I don't care. It's like Ray's face is direct. "

"... Well, if that's the case, I don't mind this way. No, you can say it's where you want it."

If you try it on Ray, if Grimm wants you here, there's nothing like rejecting it.

To welcome Grimm, he smiled and talked to Grimm.
