Legend

"Well, it's time for me to go to bed."

With that said, Anastasia leaves the side of the bonfire for her own tent prepared next to Ray's Magic Tent.

Some of the adventurers who were around the bonfire make such an anastasia look very sorry.

Anastasia, an intelligent elf beauty, was naturally very valuable to the men.

... At first some thought it was the new Ray woman again, but when I say I'm doing a lot of help with the introduction from Dusker, everyone gets a convincing look.

Regardless of his perception, everyone here knows that Ray is thought to be Dasker's katana.

More than that, Ray won't get in the way of dictating Anastasia.

Of course, that was only a story if you spoken peacefully, except if you imitated something abusive or forcefully.

For that reason, there was an invisible and fierce battle around the burning fire… especially among the men of the adventurers who were near where Anastasia was.

Ray doesn't look particularly aware of such signs, and eats bread with nuts refined as he leans against a sleeping ceto.

It's a bit of hardened black bread, but that goes with the flavour and texture of the refined nuts again.

... If it's cold, maybe it's hard enough to eat, but fortunately what's in Ray's mysterious is freshly baked bread.

That's why Ray can taste the delicacy.

"Grrrrrrrr...... Grrrrrrrr"

When Ray gives Seto a thousand slices of bread in a bite size, Seto snorts that bread well with a couch, tastes it and sounds his throat satisfied.

With regard to the Anastasia contest taking place around me, I don't see how I cared at all.

"With that said, Ray. You know what I like about Mr. Anastasia?

Two, one of the adventurers asks Ray that way.

For some reason, Ray is by far the closest thing to Anastasia.

So, wouldn't Ray have any anastasian information?

That's what I thought, I guess I asked...

"Um, right. He seems curious, so he likes the unknown."

That's never a mistake, but that's not what the adventurers wanted to hear.

Specifically, your favorite food, drink, or favorite flower… that sort of thing.

But as far as Ray was concerned, I somehow figured out that you probably wouldn't know if you asked what it was.

"Right. Thank you. Let me help you."

The adventurer man I've been asking Ray, that's what he says and he deceives me for now.

... Although I thought that I might be able to use some interest in the unknown when speaking.

"Do that.... Well, then I'm getting sleepy too, and it's time to go to bed. You can keep an eye on him, right?

"I don't mind. It's just that Seto can count on you, right?

Seto's sharp five senses were a very convenient substitute for watching here.

That's why I would naturally want you to stay close to Seto, who has that power if you could.

Ray, who was similarly gazed at by the others, asks Seto, for once.

"Seto, what do you say? They want me to help them keep an eye on you today but... do you want to help?

"Gru!"

It's okay, he said. And Seto rattles his throat like that if you want me to.

When he strokes Seto's head like that, Ray gets up.

"They say Seto will cooperate, but still, don't forget to make sure everything's okay around you.... Well, I suppose it goes without saying"

Every adventurer here has a longer history of adventurers than Ray. In Ray's case, he was caught up in unrest more than once, and as a result ran up the ranks once and for all, as he is now.

Compared to such a ray, the others have taken steady time, whereby they are now trusted by the Alliance and entrusted with the escort of the Tower of Birth.

I have a longer history of adventurers than Ray, so whatever Ray says here, it would be a sermon to Buddha.

"Whoa, leave it to me. If anything happens, I'll let Ray know right away."

Nodding at the adventurer waving at him for saying so, Ray heads to his magic tent.

Among the Anastasian tents present next to the Magic Tent, there were signs of doing something.

Perhaps if today's investigation alone sums up what I found out, I will decide what I am doing, and I will not do anything to disturb you by speaking up, but go inside the magic tent.

"Well."

Usually, Ray also does things like play with Seto around the bonfire a little bit more, and chat with other adventurers.

Or to talk to Zozo about something or to do a mock fight with Gaga.

In that situation, it was obvious why I came back to the Magic Tent so early...... when I saw that I took the pair of orbs out of Mystering.

"Grimm, can you hear me? Grimm."

Call the name, but Grimm doesn't respond.

With that said, I think something similar has happened before, but I keep sending communications without taking a break.

And enough has passed...

'I'm sorry. Something I couldn't get my hands off of, so I was late to get out'

A pair of orbs shows the skull of the grimm as usual.

"No, I called you suddenly, too.... By the way, could it be about that Whisp that I couldn't get my hands off?

"Uh-huh. I'm trying to interfere, but I can't even imitate how precious it is. I'm having a hard time around here."

"Right.... Let me tell you something, but please be careful. If it works, that Whisp could be a clue that I can get to my hometown."

"Well, Ray's hometown.... intriguing. When Ray goes, why don't you come with me? You may know something about Lord Zeppyre."

"No... there weren't any monsters or anything like that in my former world, and the undead, naturally, so if the Grimm were to come as it were, it would definitely be a commotion.... Oh, but wouldn't it be strange to have a Grimm if it was a haunted mansion in an amusement park or something like that"

"Hmm.... it's also unusual not to have monsters"

"Heritage, gambling, that sort of thing, it comes out pretty good."

Familiar to Ray would still be subcultures like games, novels, cartoons, and comics.

If it's a genre called fantasy, it's not uncommon for monsters to come out.

"Whoo-hoo. That sounds interesting, too.... So, Ray. Is the matter I've been in touch with you about the elf you were with the Lord?

Ray is surprised by the words he was told so lightly.

Of course, that underground space is no stranger to feeling that Ray and Anastasia went underground than connected to Grimm's lab.

But it was just surprising that Ray was sensing without making him feel anything.

Nevertheless, they are the ones who live far longer than they are, so I reckon that's about right, and nod.

"That's right. That elf is anastasia. Lord Dusker, the lord of the guild I'm based in, took care of him before, and he seems to be a trustworthy opponent."

"... Anastasia?

To Ray's words, some strangely skull-leaning grimm.

That's as if Grimm sounds familiar with the name Anastasia.

(Is that it? But isn't that so strange? I don't know what life Grimm usually has, but I'm pretty sure it's researcher temperament. And Anastasia is strongly interested in unknown beings she doesn't know. When that happens, even if these two have been in contact for any reason, it doesn't seem strange... no?

It was a fairly forceful story, but it was nevertheless somehow convincing reason.

"Maybe Grimm has met Anastasia?

'No, I don't think so.... but I remember hearing that name somewhere... well, let's leave that around now. So, the reason you contacted Nong is because of that elf, right?

"Oh. Starting tomorrow, they're going to look into that Whisp for real. I mean, it means I'm in that cave... you okay?

'I hope you don't mind. Let's not have a problem for now. "

"Helpful. Other than that, it would be helpful if you could shy away from putting some sort of magic item or something like that around Whisp. If you put that hand down badly, that's what Anastasia's going to think about connecting to Whisp."

That would have been somewhat unexpected for Grimm to say the same.

Grimm, who is being transferred to a pair of orbs, looks a little troubled and opens his mouth.

'That's a little troublesome. After a little while, I'm going to get some results.'

"Even if they say so. If Anastasia finds that when she checks Whisp, it's definitely gonna be a hassle, right?

"Nooo."

Grimm worries about Ray's words.

In fact, given the current situation, it is true that it tastes bad when seen by Anastasia.

Still, as a grimm, I couldn't stop it.

'No body... very no body, but do you want to use that one?... I'll make sure, but if that elf can't find you, don't you mind?

"Huh? I don't mind that, but can you do that?

'Uhm. However, you need to use a little precious material'

"Precious..."

If others say it is precious, I can be convinced that it is a worthy precious material.

But in this case, Grimm... the Grimm that has existed since Zeppyre was alive, said it was a valuable material.

How precious is that material?

I was slightly afraid to ask, but still manage to open my mouth.

"Eh, how precious is that exactly?

"It's not something that dries the fruit of a plant called Dasulnica. This plant called Dasulnica was supposedly extinct by environmental changes about two hundred years ago.... Unless it's at Non's, it's probably wrong. '

"It's also..."

Ray can only be stunned by Grimm's words.

Because that means that Grimm would have an extinct plant if it were meant to.

Of course, there are quite a few untouched places in this Elgin.

It is an undeniable fact that if we go to such a place, or even plants and animals that would otherwise have been extinct, there are other kinds of beings.

However, it would be of great benefit to Grimm to have at least one plant that is now judged to have been extinct in this situation.

"Um, is that Dasulnica? Wouldn't that plant increase?

"I'm going to increase it. Well, it's hard to raise. '

"... I see"

Ray doesn't know if what Grimm's saying is true or not.

But I had to believe that for Ray now, more than I had the chance to confirm it.

... In the first place, there's no point in Grimm deceiving Ray about this.

'Anyway, with Dasulnica, you can delude what you put on the ground. Then there's no problem, is there?

"Right. I'm being honest with you about wanting it to stop if you can, but you can't do that, can you?

"Uhm. And... if it works, it might be possible to restore that windy spirit to sanity"

That's what I remembered about the Grimm, the Spirit of the Wind that was sealed in the Emerald.

Ray questions when he is told that that spirit, which has gone mad for some reason, will return to sanity.

Whisp's ability is a transfer from different worlds.

When it is, why do you put an emerald there sealed with crazy wind spirits and that goes back to sanity?

Ray didn't understand the causality.

Nevertheless, as a wizard and researcher, Grimm is better than Ray.

If it's just pure magic, Ray is overwhelmingly higher, but if it's the kind of technology that manipulates magic, Ray doesn't reach the grim.

If you think of it as a researcher, that's why Ray didn't extend beyond magic to the grim.

"In the meantime, I'll leave that area to Grimm. This one's this way, and I'll try to move things around appropriately later... okay? I'm gonna ask Anastasia not to find me."

That said, Ray enjoyed chatting with Grimm for a while.
