Ray was tailed and attacked in a sparsely populated area.

The opponent who attacked me is never the kind of person who makes the battle work.

That is evident from the way the body moves when it strikes and the way the dagger is erected.

Nevertheless, if you're going to attack a strong man named Ray, even the adventurers around there won't stand their teeth.

Then it wasn't strange to judge that if someone with no experience in battle attacked Ray...

"So, I think it's time we could speak the language? What the hell did you think you were gonna do to me?

……

It was Ray asking, but the man on his back just stares at Ray and doesn't look like he's opening his mouth.

(I can't talk... not talk, etc.) That's the first face you've ever seen, isn't it?

Seeing the face of a man staring at himself, Ray thinks so.

At least not much, Ray didn't remember seeing this guy anywhere.

For example, you would be resenting yourself for other reasons than being hostile to Ray directly.

"I've never seen you before.... or have we met somewhere?

That's how Ray asks once, but the man who hears it makes Ray's gaze stronger.

That was actually proof that it wasn't something like attacking myself by mistake.

... Although it is very difficult to mistake Ray, who has no more characteristics than that of having Seto, for another person.

"If you don't tell me something, I'll have trouble dealing with it even over here."

If the person you attacked with this was someone with the right strength, Ray wouldn't have done anything like this to see how they were doing either.

But this opponent is no more than an amateur when it comes to battle than how he can do what he is now.

That's why, even as Ray, I watched the man with a little interest.

"... Yikes..."

And Ray also heard a man whining small.

Even Ray, who has a sharper five senses than a regular person, was more than a voice of such magnitude that it sounded slightly, it would be unclear whether the voice the man uttered was trying to say something to Ray.

"What's up? If you have something to say..."

"Die."

A short grunt out of a man's mouth.

At that moment, Ray jumps back from the spot perceiving the danger.

As if he had responded to Ray's such movement, the next moment, a blade of intense wind was created around him, mainly the man.

Such an attack, not like a tornado, but purely creating a large number of wind blades, flying depending on allowances and...

A fairly sharp wind blade slashes and rips as soon as it benefits the surroundings.

However, if it's a way to attack enemies that are originally at close range, Ray will hardly ever have a wind blade flying just a little distance away.

Most importantly, given the performance of the dragon robe Ray was wearing, what would not have happened if the wind blade had been hit?

(But how do you do an attack like this?

Because he takes the distance and is relieved that the attack won't fly on him, Ray observes his opponent closely with Seto, who is on guard with the blade of the wind on his side.

Given the current situation, it is inconceivable that a man was hiding his powers.

Because the killing intent the man unleashed on Ray was definitely a naive killing intent but a real killing intent.

If there was such a means, I would have chosen this way of attacking you from the start, without having to imitate that you would grab a dagger and stick it in every body.

"When that happens, it's not like this guy's gonna activate it of his own free will, or something? And when I'm in a crisis, it activates."

So grumbled Ray, doubting his words.

The fact that it doesn't activate on its own will probably meant that it was activated under some condition.

For example, it is expected to be a condition such as when you lose in battle, or when the opponent who beats the man approaches you….

I mean, even if it's mouth sealing and possibilities for this guy, you know, you've been thinking about doing something about yourself.

(I guess it's a magic item. But then... do we need to do that?

Magic items are basically very expensive.

If it's something that's somewhat popular. Still, Ray has no idea how long it takes to make one, if it's also for suicide bombing like the guy used it.

If you have more than a certain knowledge of alchemy, or could have worked it out...... unfortunately, Ray doesn't have that knowledge.

I can only predict that then, but I can also predict that Ray is more than hobbying on collecting magic items... it's really somehow, but it would be expensive.

There was some discomfort in letting this guy use such expensive magic items.

"Hey, hey, what the hell is this!?

No matter how invisible the back alley is, it doesn't mean that nobody goes through.

Not to mention the situation where we are now flying the wind blade gradually, focusing on a man who, as you can see, cannot move.

If anyone had passed nearby in such a way, it wouldn't be strange to peek at it worrying.

... but that's what's causing the disturbance.

"Stay away from me because I'm in danger! That guy used some kind of magic item!

A man who was voicing surprise at the tragedy around him turns his gaze to the part of Ray's voice that is once again the center of the wind blade.

Then there, he was cut through his body by the blade of the wind he woke up, and there was also the appearance of a dubious man whether he was already alive or not.

"Hey, isn't he dead!?

"I guess. But I can't do anything about this magic item because it doesn't look like it's going away!

It was a lie.

If you want to do it, Ray has as much strength as he can to manage this situation.

But in that case, there is also a great deal of damage in the vicinity… that could cause more damage to the vicinity than the blade of wind could cause, and given that, it cannot be imitated in a broad way.

"Shit, okay. Then I'll get a guard, so give me a minute!

When a man shouts just that, he goes straight back the way he came.

Ray sees it, and now he wonders what to do in this situation.

In fact, I didn't want to cause much trouble to others than this one being a substitute for what I've been after.

... In fact, I was stronger at the thought that I didn't like the trouble of being asked what was going on.

Most importantly, Ray has a lot to do right now.

I don't even know if I can go back to my birthday tower today if I'm going to do something like ask about the situation.

Most importantly, the Guild is gathering a lot of people today.

In view of the problems caused by this, there is also the possibility that this case will not be heard in particular.

"Anyway, when something could go wrong with a guard coming, I'd better clear this one up as soon as I can... what's going on?"

After all, even if there's damage around, should I do something about it here?

Ray sees the center point of the wind blade, thinking the opposite of what he was thinking a while ago.

That's what I thought, I don't care if they're a little more unscrupulous here than Ray already attacked me.

Is this one thing done in the personal circumstances of a dead man, or was someone behind a man?

I didn't know the neighborhood, but I can't even hear it out any more than I died like this.

That's why I decided I could do something about it myself lightly...

"Oh? If you think the Spirit is making a scene..."

That being said, it was Ray's familiar opponent who snuck his face out of the same spot where the earlier man had gone back...... Anastasia.

Why is Anastasia here, who broke up when she said she was going to look for an assistant in Whisp's research?

"Anastasia, didn't you go looking for an assistant?

"He's gone, isn't he? Here."

That's what I say, pulling someone out of Ray who was hiding somewhere he couldn't see.

Hiya, the way I pulled it out doesn't seem like something I can do with the power of a luxurious elf, though not very much.

(Is that it? Elves are armed...... no well, pointing that out is going to be a hassle)

With that in mind, Ray sees the woman Anastasia pulled out.

I was able to recognize a woman because I was a woman with a body.

I couldn't confirm that I was a woman because I had a mask on my face... and I was wearing a mask that covered all my eyes, nose, and mouth.

So you can see what's going on around you? You can't breathe in the first place? And I had a lot to think about, but before I could hear more about the circumstances, I needed to do something about the wind blade first.

"He said Spirit of the Wind, can Anastasia do something about this? I didn't know what was causing this, so when I do something about it, there's only one way to eliminate the whole existence of this phenomenon."

"... too much..."

Because coming out of Ray's mouth was a more abusive means than expected, Anastasia tells him so with a grudge.

Note that if the masked woman learns to fear Ray's words, she is pulled back to Anastasia, trying to pull back into the back of the aisle again.

Around talking to Ray but keeping her hands off the masked woman at all, Anastasia's behavior felt somewhere familiar.

(Could you be familiar? I don't see your face though. Or that you have similar opponents and are used to treating them)

It was Ray who questioned the two of them so much after watching them interact, but he opens his mouth so Anastasia wouldn't let the masked woman get away with it as he ignored Ray like that.

"This is a spiritual outburst. It's also intentionally rampant, so if you calm it down, you'll be fine."

"Can you do that?

"You know, who do you think I am?

Anastasia speaks to the Spirit when she glances at Ray in a manner that she says is rude.

... I'll tell you what, even after a few minutes, the wind blade... no, there's no sign that the Spirit of the Wind runoff will subside.

If the wind blade hits Anastasia, he decides it's dangerous, and Ray travels with Seto to near Anastasia.

"Are you struggling?

"No, speaking to the Spirit is going well"

Since Anastasia began to speak to the Spirit, the masked woman, who had been released of the clothes that had been grabbed, responds to Ray's words without even showing her how to escape.

However, the voice is never loud.

... It was louder than the voice of the man who attacked Ray, but in some cases it's not a strange size to miss hearing.

"Really?... Really?"

With that said, Ray, who had heard from Anastasia that the use of spiritual magic about the marina was very rare, remembers it and understands the reason for this glue situation.

(Because maybe if Marina does this, she can quiet the spirits that are rampant quicker than Anastasia)

Thinking about that while watching Anastasia, eventually the blade of wind that had been unleashed around her gradually weakened...... disappeared.

"Oh."

"It's like this.... Well, from Ray's point of view, it would have seemed slow"

You heard Ray and the masked woman, Anastasia says so with a slight obstinacy.

"Uh... well, yeah"

Sometimes, as Ray, he has also been asked about the conversation earlier, or most importantly, he has told Anastasia a a lot about the marina, and decides not to delude him and returns that word.

In fact, the marina from Ray is an amazing... No, it is definitely an over-armed spiritual user, because given the circumstances around it, it was decided that there was no point in being deluded.

There was also the thought that if Anastasia were to do research on Whisp, the opportunity would also come to meet with nature and the marina.

"Anastasia, you know how amazing it is when you meet Marina."

"You know, I'm telling you, I'm better than Ray, who can't use spiritual magic. You know how awesome people like Marina are?

If you say so, I can't help but convince you as Ray.

Because Ray had no objection to the same spiritual magic if he told me that he could see it extra.

"Uh... yeah. Well, anyway...... do you want to see the marina today or tomorrow? In that case, the Trent Forest, or you won't be able to stay in the Birth Tower."

Anastasia thought a little about the words… eventually she nodded.
