Legend

"This is..."

Ray shrugs briefly as he looks at the sights that are spreading around him.

He was a ray who imitated things like jumping into an empty hole in space with half the momentum, but as for him, even if he was somewhat unscrupulous, he doesn't realize it's deadly.

Anyway, Ray's body today was created with the total power of Zeppyre's technology.

More than that, Ray had decided that there was no problem with such an act.

"Meadows, right?"

I squeal like that, looking at the sights that are spreading around me.

From the time I saw it from the hole that existed in the underground space, I knew that this was the meadow.

I didn't even think it would be appropriate to say what I found out in such a situation, but it is definitely a meadow where nothing exists around me.

... Yes, nothing exists but meadows as far as I can see.

"... where are Anastasia and Fana?

Inside the underground space, there was no sign of Anastasia.

That's why I thought you might have come to this world, a ray that went into a hole that seemed to lead to another world, but only meadows as far as I can see, Anastasia and Fana are nowhere to be found here.

"I mean... is this really a different world?

In the present situation, where only meadows exist, is this world really a different world, or is it actually somewhere else in Elgin?

Neither did Ray know that.

"Take it..."

"What are you going to do?

"Whoa!

Surprising voices leak out of Ray's mouth at the voices that sounded unexpected.

Looking around in a hurry, there's a grimm peeking into this world from the other side of the hole.

"Grimm?... you can even have a conversation over this hole."

'Um, apparently so. Hmm, interesting. I don't know what made this happen... or isn't that the world where those Lizardmans are?

"Is that... No, is that likely enough"

If Whisp transferred Lizardmans like Zozo and Gaga from another world, it's possible that this world is the one where Zozo and Gaga were.

Or it could be the world where the water wolf was.

"Whatever, you're pretty sure there's anastasia and fana in this world?

'From the circumstantial evidence, it will. Not in that underground space right now. "

"... but as far as I can see, I don't see Anastasia and Fana anywhere"

From Ray's point of view, this area is a pretty vast meadow, with some trees growing, but with Anastasia and Fana, you can't possibly miss it.

Even so, from Ray's point of view, they were nowhere to be seen.

The time between Ray's … precisely when Seto and the water wolf sensed an anomaly in Whisp and Ray's coming into the underground space was quite considerable.

But if you can still travel through this vast meadow and travel far beyond sight, the answer is no.

Especially if all of a sudden the space has led to what seems like a different world, it's not strange to be cautious.

(Oh, but wouldn't it be strange if Anastasia went to different worlds, stimulated by curiosity?

Given Anastasia's character, it wasn't strange to think of her curiosity as a top priority rather than considering her or Fana's own safety.

Because of its curiosity, Anastasia has become a brilliant researcher.

"Ray? What's wrong?

"No, from where I am, I don't know where Anastasia is. Grimm, could you come over here for a second, please? I can't, but maybe Grimm can feel something."

'... that's hard.'

"Huh?"

Ray is surprised by Grimm's words.

It's about Grimm, so why don't you come to this world soon and look for Anastasia and the others?

That's what I thought, but that prediction was in a completely removed form.

"Why?

"No matter why you say it, it's because you're maintaining this space. If Non goes to your world, there is no one to maintain this hole, and in the worst case, the hole could be closed '

"... I mean, can't Grimm move from there?

To Ray, who asks so, Grimm shakes her neck to the side.

'No, it's not. The only thing you can't do is head to your world. In this world, we are not free to move... but we are still free to move to some extent. "

Grimm's explanation was nothing that could reassure Ray.

"I hope so.... Still can't move as freely as before, can you?

'That's unfortunately true.... but I'm pretty sure you're as free as you've ever been, but you're definitely free to move somewhat. Fortunately, Noon's lab and this underground space are connected. "

Ray is relieved to understand that the word is not a lie because of Grimm's condition.

"Fine, then.... Still, then I knew it would be hard to let the others know. If they let you know, it's just the guy who knows about Grimm."

I would say that Ray was lucky in this case that only a limited number of people originally knew about this underground space.

Either way, the hole in this space needed to be maintained until we brought the Anastasias back.

And as it stands, the only thing that can do that is Grimm.

Of course, there could have been others who could have done the same if they had searched the world, but it would take a lot of time to find that person.

Also, if we are to bring such a rare talent naturally, we need to reward it accordingly.

Given the circumstances around here, I'm pretty sure you should still get Grimm to do it.

(The question is, just make sure Grimm doesn't know as much as he can about maintaining this space?... Something's wrong with this underground space, because it's obvious from what happens to me, Seto, and the water wolf, so maybe Dusker will report it.)

So was the case with the Goblin settlement and one of the researchers, but basically the knights should have issued a report every day.

Given the circumstances around it, it was unlikely that the knight would report the anomaly felt by Seto and the water wolf... and furthermore that Ray rode Seto to that anomalous location.

It is also significant in this case that Anastasia, to which Dusker feels beneficial, is missing.

There's no way you can ever hide Anastasia from your Dusker opponent that she's gone.

In the first place, Anastasia and Fana return to the camp every night.

Because if you don't get away with it only today, it's not strange that the knight... no, everyone in the camp wonders about it.

Anastasia in particular is highly popular from the facades in the camp because of its beauty.

When I had to come back after one case of Seto and the water wolf, that made me more incapable of wondering.

"I'm going to look for the Anastasias in this world, is it hard to keep that hole?

'Right. It's not that hard. It's not a one-handed place. "

"... that's a lot easier said than done"

If you lay it down, it seems like it takes a lot of skill to maintain a hole that connects you to the other world.

Even a ray with ridiculous magic cannot be imitated like that for a ray that is only fit for the magic of flames.

If that's what Grimm says, as a Ray, I just have to believe that word.

Somehow, the other person has existed since the time when Zeppyre was alive - not kept alive - the Grimm.

With all that skill, it wasn't strange.

'Whatever it is, leave the maintenance of this hole to Non. Ray's gone. I'm looking for the two of you. "

"... again, you've been holding Anastasia and Fana for a long time, haven't you?

From the beginning, Ray also didn't have the option of not going looking for Anastasia and Fana.

But telling Grimm to come so aggressively looking for Anastasia and Fana is nothing short of unexpected for Ray.

Only Grimm, who is as adorable about Ray as her grandson, is close to Ray...... It's not strange to say that when people like Elaine, Marina and Vihera are gone.

'Hmm, right. With that elf named Anastasia... he has also peered several times at the figure being studied by those wearing masks'

"That's... well, I don't think Grimm would find it, because Anastasia is a user of spiritual magic"

In the lay, there is a strong impression that when it comes to spiritual magic, it is powerful and omnipotent magic.

Naturally, it's because the marina uses it.

... For once, Ray also knows that Marina's Spirit Magic is not an average, but an awesome Spirit Wizard, but it was still intense to be really impressed.

"Don't worry, we haven't found Nong yet."

"Grimm deserves it. So, your emotions shifted while you were peeking?

'It's something similar. Anastasia is a good researcher. That's what I'm talking about.

"Uh... yeah. I guess. I kind of understand the neighborhood."

I had also heard from Dusker that he was an excellent researcher.

That is why there is also a strong convincing part of Grimm's words.

"I see. As the same researchers"

'Right. Besides, Non didn't know how that Whisp was connected to the other world. But I don't know if Anastasia is a coincidence or a calculation, but this is how it connects to the other world. "

Grimm's words have a pure respect.

Whether Anastasia is an elf, time to live is more than humans, beasts, or dwarves, it's so little that it's ridiculous to compare it to the grimm of the undead.

Aside from whether Grimm is alive or not.

Anyway, as a researcher, Anastasia did what even a grimm with an overwhelmingly longer experience was impossible.

It would be natural for Grimm to have respect for that.

"Okay. Then I'll find Anastasia and Fana.... but as far as the surroundings go, the meadows are spreading everywhere. With Seto, we can fly and move."

"Hmm, wait."

When Grimm, who told him briefly, spells quickly, Seto inadvertently appears inside the underground space.

"Gru!?

Seto, who should have been on the ground, is suddenly surprised to have been in underground space and alerts himself to his surroundings.

(Uh... yeah. Well, you do)

Ray has asked Grimm to use metastatic magic several times before.

If you try to make it such a grime, it would be easy enough to transfer Seto, who is on the ground, to this underground space.

"Grr...... Grr! Grrrrrrrrrr!"

Seto, who was vigilantly checking his surroundings, realizes that there is a ray at the end of an empty hole in the space.

In fact, there are grimes on the side of that hole, but Ray probably took precedence over Grimm for Seto now.

As he sounds happily, Seto penetrates into the hole that leads to the other world.

"Whoa!

Ray tries to take Ceto, who's been poking at him, but Ceto, who's about three meters long.

I can't imitate what Seto looks like completely, and Seto pushes me down half the time.

"Grrrrrrrrrrrrrr, grrrrrrr"

Seto rubs his face happily against Ray, who has fallen to the ground.

If I tried Ceto, I would have sent Ray to a dangerous place where he didn't know what to do.

So I was wondering if they made me transfer somewhere like this, because there was Ray there, so I couldn't do it if Seto wasn't happy.

Still, if you let me like it for a few minutes, eventually Seto will also be satisfied with being able to sweeten Ray, away from Ray and look around... again, I don't know where this place is.

"Seto"

"Gru?"

Seto, who was looking around, was finally turned back to me there by a voice from Ray, and where am I? and asks Ray.

"This is a different world.... Well, it's not like it's Earth"

Ray doesn't know exactly where this other world is either.

But still somehow, I felt like this wasn't the planet.

(Earth… Hokkaido or something when you see what's going on around you in Japan and it's a meadow on one side so far? Or maybe there are places like this in a foreign country)

Ray, looking around with that in mind, accidentally found the presence of several riders who seemed to be cavalry, when the horse... also put on his back what seemed to be a person.
