Legend

"... what?

After hearing an explanation from Ray, Dusker looks up from the paperwork he was reading.

What comes to that look is, naturally, a harsh look.

If you came all the way out here to do a reconnaissance, you better assume that you knew about the lake.

Or did you come here with an interest in the tower of birth?

We still don't know why in detail, but this time we interrogated the men in black that Ray and the others captured, we could have gotten some information.

In response to such a dusker, Ray speaks a lot about the course of this one.

Hearing Ray's explanation, Dusker changed from a harsh look to an unpleasant look.

"In that case, we still need to find out who hired that black outfit or who owns it."

"Right. To be honest, I don't know what else will happen in this one. It could also be reconnaissance or… in some cases, an attack."

"Right. We need to do something around here.... don't give me a nasty imitation"

Bitter Dusker words.

I'm pretty sure it's actually going to be a lot of trouble in this one.

Especially Dusker, where even work is concentrated and the day goes on for days like sleeping, eating or working.

It was also not just that, sometimes things like eating while working, or too much work to get enough sleep.

Even though those days have gone on, it is significant that Dusker is still healthy in this way because he uses a futon of magic items that will tire him enough even with his stubborn flesh and short sleep.

This futon, in fact, was a substitute I managed to prepare because I knew it would be busy as of last year, but that is the form that proved to have been the wisdom eye.

In this busy situation, there are more jobs… it's not an easy job either, it's more likely to be a hassle.

Not very much, but that's not acceptable.

Nevertheless, just because it's unacceptable doesn't mean you don't do anything.

"Whatever, I know what's going on.... I was hoping it would be time to get Ray off the Birth Tower escort and go around to another job."

You can also say that that is a miscalculation for Dusker.

Although the number of adventurers comparable to Ray is small in the sense of standing arms.

Even if it's not as ray, if it's generally someone who stands up in arms, the numbers are pretty high just for the guilds.

However... in this case, all you need is the skill for the moment, but there is a sharp sense that the enemy will come closer than that.

In terms of its five senses, it did not occur to Dusker to be said to be sharper than Ray's submissive Seto.

And what Seto thinks he loves about Ray is that's what everyone knows if they know Seto.

So, there's no reason to let Seto be the only guard of the Birth Tower.

Not to mention that a lot of people need Ray's strength in the additions, Ray rides Ceto and does things like show his face in various places with that mobility.

I mean, whatever you think, Ray and Seto better get moving on the set.

That is why, if you let them behave differently poorly, there is ample chance that it will cause problems.

"You can't help it. To be honest, I was wondering if I could end my watch, too. I don't know what happens when something like last night happens."

Ray's fear is that Zozo and Gaga and Lizardman will be treated as monsters to be harmed, or that a selfish merchant will vandalize the lake by smelling the smell of gold in the lake. And most importantly... is there any strange imitation of Ray's magical and still burning slime?

Slime, which continues to burn near the lake, is undoubtedly capable of viciousness, even in slime.... No, even if Ning Luo doesn't have some special ability, that giant and mass alone is a sufficient threat.

What happens if such a huge slime sticks into the guild.

The fact that it is being built means that the worst walls of the castle can be destroyed and that slime can jump into the guild, more than the kind of junction is not in perfect condition either.

If that happened, the damage would be enormous.

That's why if I could just as Ray...... no, I definitely didn't want that slime to get a little bit out of it.

(Looking at what's going on now, that slime keeps burning forever. Right. That's what's going to be a kind of tourist resource, just like a lake.... yeah, shouldn't I think of anything odd)

Think poorly here, it would be pretty unsavory if it materialized.

Having so decided, Ray puts in a sense of switching moods… At the same time, he thinks it should be a little bit of a Dusker mood change and mouths another topic.

"With that said, I don't know if I can say monsters because there are no demonic stones... of the lake, but I caught a giant fish. It's also a fish with huge fangs."

"Fish with fangs? That's not unusual, is it?

Dusker tilting his neck at Ray's words.

For Dusker, who has gone to various places as a knight and has seen various monsters as a lord of the guilds, it is not uncommon, such as fish with fangs.

That much, just like myself...... no, wouldn't it be unusual for Ray to go to more places than he has in the years since he came to Gilm? And yes, Dusker questions.

But to Dusker's question, Ray shakes his neck sideways in a confident manner.

"Perhaps not as fangs as Master Dusker imagines. Fish with fangs. Yes, but mostly fish fangs like that are about as long as fingers, right? But I went out to that lake... right. By and large…"

With that said, Ray shows from his elbow to his fingertips.

"It's a fang about this length. Two of them up and down, four of them in total."

"... it's also..."

If it were a fish with Ray's indicated length fangs, I'd never even seen Dusker do that.

If you are an animal-type monster, not a fish, then there are quite a few monsters with so many big fangs.

But what Ray showed us was fish.

Not to mention I don't know if the creature in the lake I've been transferring has a monster or not because I don't have a demon stone, and maybe even the possibility was that the fish is usually a fish with such fangs and not a monster.

When that happens, even as a dusker, Ray's story attracts interest and prompts me ahead.

"So? So, what happened to that fish?

"It was delicious."

"You ate it!?

The scream leaks out of Dusker's mouth if the words that came out of Ray's mouth were unexpected.

While screaming, there was a strong curiosity in Dusker's tone, and I didn't think he was the same person who had a difficult look while doing paperwork until earlier.

That's how different Dusker gets when he's looking at the paperwork and now he's looking at curiosity.

"Yes, because the lake fish have so far been found harmless to eat"

"Still, I guess I didn't look into it thoroughly. So, how did it taste?

With caution, Ray smiles and opens his mouth to Dusker, who still asks if he cares about the taste of the fish.

"I think I told you now, it was delicious."

Not as good as excellent, but the fish was definitely delicious.

... but that just became such a rating because Ray eats a lot of high-ranking monsters, and it tasted so good that I could definitely call it superb if I were normal.

"Right, was it delicious? I envy you."

I point my gaze at Ray, which Dusker seems envious of, but I remember and mouth him.

"The Cerberus meat Ray brought me, but I ate it last night but it was amazing. That's the power gushing out of my body...... no, it was such a delicacy, overflowing. Thanks to this, I am able to do my job vigorously today"

The word was not a lie or anything.

Dusker, who ate Cerberus' meat with the highest strength among the rank B monsters, is now very full of vitality, with the very fatigue he had accumulated blowing up.

Cerberus meat is a substitute for that effect.

"Really? That's good.... Everyone was delighted to eat here, but you want to eat dishes made by a real cook anyway."

Especially the skill of the cook that Dusker employs... no, he has the skill to be called superior.

What the hell happens if such cooks cook Cerberus meat?

That would be obvious without even thinking about it.

"Ha ha. I was jealous of Ray for eating the fish, but I think I could have made Ray envy me."

"... for once, I still have fish fillets with those fangs. It just wouldn't taste good to feed Dusker this."

"Nooo."

It was Dusker who wanted to argue with Ray's words, but whether it's actually okay to eat lake fish or not, so far, is from the experience of the Rays adventurers.

Now if the lake had moved from somewhere else in this world, I would have decided that there would be no problem eating the fish caught there... somehow, the lake has moved from another world.

What exactly are the side effects of the fish caught there should not be investigated thoroughly by scholars.

As for Ray, I don't think there's anything wrong with him because he feels like he ate himself, but given Dusker's position, it was natural that he couldn't even do such an imitation.

Dusker also understands that Gilm is currently able to operate without bending over and without major problems because he is.

So, fish from different worlds… it's obviously not normal either. Huge fish with fangs can't imitate like they eat.

"In the meantime, I'll keep you inside my mysteries so that if a scholar or something finds it safe to eat. However, given that it was quite easy to acquire in that lake, you might be able to acquire it any time you want."

"Right. Then I'm looking forward to the day.... Yes, about the scholars."

Ray speaks the word scholar, so Dusker makes the report just fine.

"I have a scholar who took care of me when I was a knight, but I got in touch with that guy. I mean, I'm working on the additions, so he came to the guild and showed his face."

It was obvious what that meant more than purposefully talking about scholars in this situation.

"I mean, give that person an investigation into Whisp? But, um... I don't mean to doubt Master Dusker's eyes, but are you a trustworthy person? Coming to the Guild at this time is a little too much..."

"I also know what Ray thinks. But he hates the powerful. You'll have no problem worrying about what you're doing."

"No, but... it's been a long time since Master Dusker met that scholar, hasn't it?

People can change for days, hours, even minutes in some cases.

If it was during the Knights that Dusker was close to the scholar, it must have been quite a while ago.

If so, it cannot be denied that personality may have changed over that long period of time.

But Dusker opens his mouth as if he had read Ray's feelings like that.

"Anastasia is trustworthy. That's true."

"... Anastasia? Is that the name of the scholar?

Ray wondered if it was a man because of the scholar that Dusker took care of, and was surprised by the name of a woman like Anastasia.

"Oh. It's an elf."

"... Dear Dusker, you've been on the edge of elves for a long time"

The marina I've known about Dusker since I was a little girl is a dark elf.

And the person I took care of when I was knighting was an elf.

The number of elves and dark elves is very small, and it was a tremendous chance that we met two elves in such a

... If that's what you mean, Ray is seeing more elves and dark elves.

"Really? Well, maybe so. Anyway...... you should see him for a bit too. That way, you'll understand you're not the one to worry about."

"Well, if Master Dusker says so, I don't mind that."

Ray nodded at the words of Dusker, who somehow pushed him with strange force.
