Legend

The moment he peeks inside through a hole in the wall, Ray sees a man waving a dagger at himself from the tip of that hole, without anything to stop him from moving in surprise, and reacts instantly.

Running back... not out front.

The house in front of me is pretty worn out, and that's the kind of building that doesn't seem strange to collapse by windstorms one of these days after time.

That's why Ray stepped forward while destroying the wall.

That's it, why did you come forward? That's obvious if you look at the face of the man who tried to wield the dagger.

"Whoa!?

I guess you never thought you'd come at yourself instead of running away in this situation.

The man who was waving the dagger was dull for a moment from the upset when he waved the dagger at Ray's exact behavior like that... for Ray, there was nothing wrong with that moment.

"Whoa!

A fist that is swung into the opponent's agitation.

That blow, released out front while dodging a dagger blow, hits the assassin's torso… and blows it straight up.

Only a building that isn't strange whenever it collapses, the man beaten up by Ray breaks down the wall and gets blown up as it is.

"Phew."

While delighted to have taken off the crisis for good, Ray goes outside the building.

There was a man there who said he would guide himself to the black dog Ajit... and there was supposed to be a man who insisted on taking a peek inside this building.

I have betrayed myself more than I have imitated like this, naturally.

While I thought so, I turned my gaze to the man...... what was there was a man spitting blood out of his mouth and falling to the ground.

(What happened?

For a moment it was Ray who wondered if Seto had attacked him, but seeing how Seto was confused too, it's obvious that's not why.

That being the case, it was reasonable to assume that it had become this way by some other means.

Nevertheless, more than this man is unable to move, the next thing I should do now would be to properly defeat the man who has been waving the dagger.

I beat him up earlier, but I don't think that made him incapacitated.

"Seto, look at the man."

Yes. Speaking to Seto, Ray heads toward the blown man.

Listening to Seto squeal on his back.

"I think it's around here... oh, there he is"

I found the man who blew it up. It was Ray, but the guy doesn't look like he's gonna get up while he's down on the ground.

What? And as Ray approached the man with doubts... it turned out why.

Oh, my God, there was a dagger stuck in the man's head.

That's the depth that just destroys the brain.

For a second, this happened to you in the shock when you blew it? I thought so, Ray, but if you look closely, a blown man is holding his own dagger and poking it out of his temples.

That was clearly just a sight to think of as suicide.

"This... what the hell happened?

What came out of Ray's mouth was a blatant word.

The man who led himself to this place and the man who was after himself in the house.

Ray also knew for granted that those two were a flavor of assassins who were currently after themselves.

But still... do you do this kind of imitation just because the assassination failed?

In the first place, if you're going to commit suicide, take poison.

There was no doubt that people who did it would be quite scared to go out of their way to stab themselves in the head with a dagger, etc.

Why the hell would I kill myself? And it would be natural for Ray to think so.

However, as far as this can be seen, the dagger is held in his own hand.

It was obvious that someone didn't kill a man.

If so, it would mean that the suicide was clearly done with his own hands.

... Ray didn't know why the hell he did such an imitation. I didn't know, but it was an unmistakable fact that the assassin had died and was no longer able to extract information.

"... can't help it, can you?"

I don't want to touch a body like this if I can.

But if you look into this body, something will happen... and that's why you might see why you died like this.

Determine so and store the body in mystering.

"Well... when this happens, I have to wonder if something's suspicious over there, too"

Whimpering, it was Ray heading to where Seto was, but there it was... I should still say, I should have expected, but it was a corpse.

The body of the man who said he would lead Ray to the black dog Ajito.

I originally spit blood out of my mouth, so I thought it tasted bad.

But first, when I needed to find out about the person who actually attacked me, that's what I did...

"Uh... I wonder what happened to this"

Exhale so much, but that would be more... really more of a story now.

All I can do now is head to the black dog Ajito.

So I'll show you the marina reference and get some information about this one.

... I don't know if I can or can't do that.

Still, given this one case, it seemed imperative to get information from there.

(Though, this seems like the guy who said he'd lead you to the black dog Ajito. Are you manipulating me with hypnosis or something, or were you one of my enemies from the beginning?... the problem is that you can no longer go black dog aside in a detour)

The person who told me he was going to lead me to Ajito the Black Dog has been trying to put himself in a trap.

That said, if you asked anybody about the location of the black dog Ajit, you could never deny the possibility that the person would attack you here.

The first person to offer me guidance is at this rate, so this one is troublesome... yes, I guess that's what makes me think it's very troublesome.

"Well, then how do I really get to the black dog Azito?... I can't imagine going into a building that seems to have an organization like that gradually."

If you imitate that, that's definitely what makes this one a pretty hassle.

No, it wasn't weird to be such a big mess, like I'm sorry it wasn't a hassle.

That's why I need to think hard about what I should do with my movements this time.

"Hey, Seto. What the hell do you think we should do in this case?

"Gru?"

To Ray's words, Seto rings his throat like he's in trouble.

It's not just Ray who doesn't know what to do, it's Seto who's with him.

So even if Ray asks me what I'm going to do, I can't answer right away what Ceto should do either.

Most importantly, Ray also understood it somewhat… I spoke to Seto in a way that was close to a change of mood.

"Uh, yeah. I'm sorry. I think there's a lot going on here.... but you do. Do we need to find someone to show us the way again?"

"Grrrrrrrr!"

Ray's right about Seto's words! and honking.

For Ray, even if you don't trust someone who says you're going to be a guide from the other side, like the guy who's spitting blood at the end of his gaze and falling, can you just talk to him from yourself and ask him to do it? I think.

"Hmm?... oh, poison"

Ray, who tries to store a bloodspitting man in a mistering, realizes that the man didn't take a powerful blow from Seto.

The first time I saw you spitting blood, I thought that was exactly when Seto's blow destroyed your gut and broke your ribs and that hurt your gut...

As far as how the man is falling down like this, he doesn't seem so badly injured.

Of course, there's still the possibility that he was seriously injured by Seto's blow, just because he doesn't actually see it, but if you think about the man Ray saw earlier who was stabbing himself in the head with a dagger, you'd be right to think that Seto killed himself by some means rather than by killing him.

"And this man... he's the one who was coming to dismantle Giganto Turtle."

Ray squeaks as he looks at the man's body.

It was the face I saw several times when I was doing the dismantling of Giganto Turtle in the winter.

Ray was one of those people who came together when he came to Slam Street, and the man was trying to assassinate him, whether he was convinced or manipulated by something.

If you ask me if that's acceptable, I can't do it for granted. I can't... Still, Ray convinces me that it's no stranger to such a thing than it is to be a slum city.

"Gru......"

Rub such a ray on his face as Seto rattles his throat to comfort him.

"Right. I don't care that much. What we need to do now is go to the Black Dog Ajit first. … Now, the question is how do we find that person"

It was Ray's honest thought that the person he talked to was an assassin by chance, to be honest, that he wanted me to give him a break.

Nevertheless, I also definitely needed to speak to someone in this case.

"I wish you'd heard from the marina. … but I don't even know if I can guess if they explain the directions for Slam Street"

Slam Street can be a few days or the building can be broken or new - using materials from around it to build it appropriately.

As a result, the path changes quickly.

Therefore, it is even said that no one, even those who currently live in Slam Street, knows all the paths that are in Slam Street.

Hearing the road from the marina to the black dog Ajito, there's nothing you can do if that path has changed.

"At all, I wonder what's going on.... What are you doing here and moving?"

Ray leaves the spot with Seto when he stores the body of a man he thinks died of poisoning in mystering.

The first place to head is where there seems to be a lot of people.

... If you head to a place where there seems to be a lot of people, naturally, you risk being targeted by that many assassins.

But I really needed to see someone to find out where the black dog was.

Stay away from where you were attacked and walk for a few minutes.

Eventually we arrive at a place where there are quite a few people.

Though, a lot of people don't work, they talk to their peers as much.

(If they say it sounds like a slum city, you might be right)

Nevertheless, those who live in Slam Street also had to eat in order to live, and in order to eat they needed to get gold.

How the hell are people like this talking from day to day making money...... To be honest with Ray, I doubted it.

(Possibly, like a Slam Street crime or something?

If it's a crime like robbery or placement, it wouldn't be so difficult for a slum city dweller,

Nevertheless, in that case, if you try to take it away from a bad opponent, you will be attacked backwards.

Anyway, this is the Guild of the Border.

More than a lot of skilled adventurers, you also need to make a good choice who to attack.

...... though, there is now additional construction under way, even those who would otherwise not be able to come to the Guild, so in that sense it may be advantageous for the inhabitants of the slum district.

"Hey."

"Is that... is that Ray?

"Oh. I'm taking Griffon, and you're absolutely sure of it"

"But what's in Slam Street?

"Know what? If you're curious, you can ask."

Seeing Ray, some people whisper words.

... to a sharp ray of five senses, it sounded natural though.

I'm just surprised we're here, and it doesn't look like we're going to kill each other like assassins.

So neither did Ray look particularly concerned, leaving him alone.

(Now, who do I ask for a black dog azito)

Ray was thinking that way in a place that could be said to be a boulevard among the slums, but there was a sight that caught my eye.

One of the buildings at the end of the line of sight.

Compared to the house where Ray was attacked earlier, there was one man in that building that was quite solid.

Are you a little older than the man who said he would guide Ray earlier?

Such a man makes an invitation to come a little meaningless when he gazes at Ray.

Very suspicious, considering the one that was attacked earlier. It's suspicious... but it was also true that I should go over there now rather than still have any clue.

"This kind of thing, if you get into a tiger hole, you don't get a tiger child... did you?

Whimpering, we head to that building.

... For some reason, the residents of Slam Street who were around softly slip away from sight when they find out that Ray and Seto are approaching the building.

While questioning that, stand in front of the building ready to deal with whatever the other person does right away, and speak to the man in the building with no door or nothing.

"What can I do for you?

"You must be the one who needs me, right? Black Dog Ajito...... you want to know?

That's what the man said to Ray.
