Legend

Seto and the water wolf seemed to feel something clearly, but Ray has no idea what's going on ahead of that gaze.

However, it was clear from the state of Seto and the water wolf that they were not imitating such things with a joke or something, but were definitely doing so for some reason.

Not to mention that Seto and the water wolf are all looking at the central part of the Trento forest.

A vast underground space exists in its central part, where there is a whisp.

With the ability to summon biologically and biologically from different worlds, Whisp.

Ray seemed more certain that something had happened to Whisp than that had happened in this situation.

(The question is why something happened to Whisp... is it Anastasia or Grimm?)

You wouldn't know Anastasia doing Whisp research in the underground space, but the underground space is connected to a lab with a grimm.

Beyond that, we can never deny the possibility that something happened while Grimm was studying Whisp.

In this case, it is difficult to make a judgment around it from outside.

Grimm and Anastasia.

Which of them did this one, I still needed to go see him directly myself.

Even if not, as Ray, I'm hoping Whisper might be able to get to Earth once and for all.

If you think something's happened to a place with that kind of whisp, there's no reason to stand still here.

What happened?

I needed to make sure of that.

"Seto!"

"Gru!"

Seto responds instantly to Ray's screaming voice.

That's all Seto comes to Ray's side.

Ray rides on the back of such a ceto and heads into the underground space...... before, he speaks to the knight in charge of this occasion.

"I'm just going to check on you. I know you're probably gonna be okay, but just be ready to deal with whatever happens."

"All right, take care and go"

Ray nodded at the knight's words and tried to head with Seto to the center of the Trento Forest...

"One!"

It was the water wolf who hung up on Ray like that.

Even for water wolves, the lake you want to live in today is next to the Trento Forest.

Beyond that, if something happened in the Trent Forest, it would be natural to try to deal with it.

Ray knew that too, but he shook his neck sideways against the water wolf.

"I'm sorry, but the water wolf will wait here. Don't take a water wolf any more than you don't know what the hell happened over there."

You really don't know what happens to water wolves that are connected by a string of lakes and water than you do know what happened over there.

More than that, there was no way to take a friendly water wolf against the people of this world.

... If this was still a compatible monster to deal with like a goblin settlement, it would have been another story apart.

"Please."

"... waw..."

To Ray's words, the water wolf reluctantly accepts the words.

The water wolf is also concerned about what is going on in the middle of the Trent forest, but it is a big deal because I did not know what the treatment of the lake would be like if I were dead or gone for any reason here and now.

"Well, I asked for this one. In the meantime, at night...... no, if you wait until tomorrow morning and you don't come back, ask Master Dusker for instructions. I think if you say you went underground, you'll pass it on."

Ray also understands that the underground space needs to be kept as secret as possible.

That's why we leave messages telling Dusker not to talk about things like going to the middle of the Trent woods here, but to ask for instructions.

If you were told you went underground, you would naturally know that both Dusker and Ray headed into the middle of the Trent woods, and it would be possible to give instructions when something happened.

(I also wanted to keep it a secret that if I could, I wouldn't be able to do that)

underground space and the centre of the Trento Forest.

If you ask me which one to keep secret, I'm pretty sure I should still keep a secret story about the fact that it's in the middle of the Trento forest that underground space exists.

Ray, who asked for a message, signals Seto and runs out.

"Run me on the ground"

"Gru?"

Is Seto okay with Ray's words? And I rang my throat.

I know Ray is in a hurry, and that's why he thought we should fly and move around in the sky.

In fact, the speed at which Seto runs by sewing the trees growing in the Trento forest is quite fast.

Still, flying faster in the sky is an unmistakable fact.

But I hid going to the center of Trent's forest, and they know where I'm going if I fly in the sky.

You wouldn't know exactly in which direction it was, but still, given the Whisp thing, it was only natural that you wanted to keep it as secret as possible.

"Oh."

That's how Ray nods quickly to Seto, who asks if it's okay.

Seeing it, Seto began to run on the ground without any particular doubt, if Ray would say so and beyond.

However, that speed is overwhelmingly faster than it was when I was running on Anastasia.

Seto also instinctively knows that what is happening today is not the majority of the time.

More than that, there was no need to hesitate when it came to rushing to where something had happened.

Ray strokes Seto's back as he looks at one flowing view after another.

(If something happened in the underground space where Whisp is located, the problem is that Seto cannot enter the underground space?)

The passage to the underground space is quite narrow.

Those like Ray, Anastasia and Fana can go through fine, but still only in a row.

Even Seto, who has the skills to resize, was harder to get to the underground space than the two of us could go side by side.

(When that happens, after all, do I have to go to underground space alone this time? No, with Grimm, or could we possibly know what caused the anomaly...?

Even while Ray holds such a glimmer of hope, Seto runs on the ground to the underground space where Whisp is located.

I thought we could get there a little faster.

I found a few goblins along the way. It was Ray, but whatever it is before the anomaly happens, I can't afford to be on the goblin in the current situation.

Instead of making an attack without passing through, go ahead and ignore the goblins in the true sense.

Seto also understands about the anomaly...... no, it wasn't strange that he felt more agitated than Ray than it was exactly Seto who felt the anomaly with the water wolf

So Seto also runs through the forest of Trent without any concern for goblins.

Goblins also have no means of attacking fast moving Seto.

Because even with some kind of weapon, Seto would run right through his eyes before attacking him with that weapon.

Even a goblin with a bow can't imitate an attack because he's already off the spot the moment he finds Seto.

Even if we were lucky enough to attack, Seto was running with a lot of trees growing in the Trent Forest, and it was difficult to get Seto to hit the attack in that.

Unfortunately, it's not the kind of attack that goblins can do around there.

For that reason, Ray and Seto had nothing to do with goblins... only the goblins that had unluckily popped up in front of Seto were blown up by Seto, causing fatal injuries such as hitting the growing tree with his body and breaking bones all over his body, or even breaking bones in his neck and dying intact.

Keep going as you do that...... Eventually, Ray and Seto arrive where there is an underground passage leading to the underground space.

"This is..."

I didn't know anything when I was in the camp, but when I got so close, Ray also understood what Seto and the water wolf had reacted to.

Ray doesn't have the ability to feel the general magic.

But even with such a ray, you can feel a different vibe if you get here.

It's not magic, it's not killing, it's not hostility... I can't describe anything, but it's a different feeling.

"That's your first feeling.... I guess feeling it from here has something to do with Whisp.... Seto, I'm going inside, so I need you to explore the area. Especially now that we're in this situation, I don't think there's a guy or anything that comes close to the detour. Still, just in case."

"Grrrrrr?...... Grrrrrrrr......"

If always, Seto hears Ray's words honestly.

However, in this current situation, it feels very dangerous to turn Ray into underground space, even from Seto's point of view, and he can't honestly nod.

Ray strokes Seto's head as he looks worried.

"Don't worry. I don't know what's going on in the underground space, but do you think I can handle that? You know how strong I am, Seto, who's been acting with me ever since, right?

"Gru......"

Like reluctantly, a throat-beating ceto.

Seto could assure me that if he didn't actually believe in Ray's prowess, that would be more than Seto knows what Ray's prowess is.

"So trust me and wait."

"Grrrrrrrr...... grrr"

Eventually, reluctantly...... really reluctantly, Seto nods at Ray's words.

Ray, who finally stroked Seto's head, heads straight into the underground passage.

"Wow... what the hell, this"

I don't feel particularly dangerous like this, but I'm pretty sure it still feels strange.

While wondering about it, Ray keeps going down the underground aisle... eventually reaching the underground space where Whisp is located.

……

Before that space, Ray remains silent.

No, I'm right that there was no word, even if I were to say something precisely.

When I came to this underground space this morning, what was here was the same sight Ray saw last night.

A huge whisp existed, and in remote places there was a table, on which a large number of different kinds of research materials were placed, as well as some kind of experimental appliance and preserved foods such as dried fruit, baked and hardened bread and dried meat.

Also, Ray was the only one who could tell, but there was some kind of magic item in the underground space that Grimm put away.

But there is no such sight left in front of Ray right now.

No, there is a Whisp, but there is no table where all sorts of objects were already located, not to say instead, but it is huge in space... that is the hole with a radius of about 3m was left empty.

On the other side of the space, there is a grassland completely different from this underground space.

Ray was blinded by the unexpected sight, but I'll call the names of the two people who were right here.

"Anastasia! Fana! He's not here!?

It was a screaming ray, but no reply, as a matter of course.

If you have Anastasia, it's not strange that you're interested in looking into holes vacated in the air because that's an unknown phenomenon.

(No, I mean... maybe you didn't go to the other side with an interest in the hole in the space, did you?

If we go through the hole in the space, will we proceed safely to the other side?

I don't even know that by Ray, but I can predict that from the other side of the space you can probably go to the other side of the hole, given the smell of grass and dirt drifting...

The question is, though, can you go over there? Can you come back?

"Ray."

And that voice, which sounded unexpected, was a familiar one.

"Grimm?"

"Uhm.... looks like something unexpected happened"

With that said, Grimm shows up.

I don't know the expression because my head is a skull, but I can understand it from the edge of the word that it still looks troubled.

"You know what happened?

'No, because I'll try not to get out here during the day as much as possible. Bye... the fact that the two of you were here are not here right now...'

Grimm's eyeball-free eyes are directed at holes that are empty in the space.

Ray immediately understood what Grimm was trying to say.

Did Anastasia go from herself, or did she wind up when there was a hole in the space?

I didn't know the area.

"Probably went over there, huh? And then... what do I do? Let Master Dusker know here.... No, you can't. It doesn't taste good to have more people here than this. And then... me."

That was Ray whining, but there was no doubt that curiosity was strongly stimulated by the fact that he could actually go to different worlds.

There may be unknown magic items over there.

Hold that thought...

"Okay, hey, I'm coming"

Yes, I told you.
