"This again... you really don't have anything left"

Zai groans, looking at the home of Dragonias.

In fact, there's really nothing left there.

That's why we don't even have Dragonias' body left.

... To be precise, the body of Dragonias, which became charcoal and ash, exists, but that is not very much, but cannot be used as a material, and is not what Ray wanted.

"Wow... honestly, I didn't think this was going to be the end of it. You've done too much."

Ray whines so, reflecting on making as many as ten fire whirlwinds.

If the number of fire whirlwinds were one...... no, even half a dozen would have left Dragonias' body to some extent.

"It was a wise decision for me to obtain the body of Dragonias the Golden Scale."

Ray praising himself for his self painting.

But if we hadn't actually secured the body of the golden scale dragonias when we escaped from our home base, that body would probably have been charcoal and ash, too.

Beyond being the one who was leading Dragonias, it was possible that maybe it was the fire whirlwind that withstood...... but as for Ray, I don't want to try that with the body of Dragonias the Golden Scale that only exists for one.

"Right.... To be honest, it really didn't make sense that we were here."

That's what Zai tells you with an unconvincing look.

If you try Zai, relying on the power of Ray alone, the one outside the settlement, to solve this case did not allow pride as Centaur.

That's why I came here to fight Dragonias at all... in fact, I had very little occasion to fight.

About when I came into contact with Dragonias on the way here.

If it meant being useful to Ray, it would have been better to turn to the escorts of those who had fled other settlements, which we encountered along the way.

I even think about that.

At first, Ray's magic was so powerful... No, I didn't think it was vicious, so I had no choice.

"Absolutely."

Deeply agreeing with Zai's words was Dorat.

He had decided he was someone who didn't care about the existence of Ray, but he still admitted he was competent.

Either way, we've wiped out most of the Dragonias that have attacked the settlement on their own.

Ray and Seto showed overwhelming strength even as they were battling red scaled dragonias with resistance to flames.

More than that, I knew how strong Ray was. I knew... this time I saw a sight that I had to flash, even if it was a drat I was wondering about that I knew Ray's power.

That sight, which was too overwhelming, was all I could do but flash.

"Damn... what are we really doing here? If there was one guide, I'd be glad to hear it."

Disgruntled...... Now, that word whined with some giving up definitely makes those who watch think a lot too.

In fact, the other Centaurs who saw such a drat thought of each of them as various.

A short distance from such Centaur and the others, Ray once again looks around with Seto.

"Apparently, now we've been able to defeat Dragonias, who was really based... but I think something's just too light over."

"Gru?"

Even though Ray stroked my head, Seto did? and honking his throat.

In fact, I'm pretty sure the fight against Dragonias with the gold scales cleaned up lighter than expected.

But that's only because Ray used the Red Armor of the Flaming Emperor.

The opponent had the strength to imitate Ray's twilight spear throw as well.

Given the circumstances around it, I still felt like I was overthinking Ray's light end, Seto did.

That's what Seto claims when he doesn't do that with his gaze against Ray.

To Seto's gaze, I just change my mind a little bit like Ray said so too.

Ray can't really believe that this whole thing has been completely solved.

But... to put it to the polar theory, that's not why Ray really has to solve the Dragonias case completely...

If you think about it again, Ray cooperated with Zai and the others this time only to get help finding Anastasia and Fana.

As a condition, Centaur of Zai's settlement took on the destruction of the Dragonias in this place.

For example, there is no need to impose any more than that condition has at least been fulfilled. I don't...

(Still, I want to avoid events that have a bad aftertaste as much as I can)

Whatever Dorat is, he has a favorable sentiment for Zai, and the other Centaurs admire Ray, partly because he saved their own settlement.

There was also a corresponding one in the settlement who adored Seto.

Given the circumstances around here, could we still put a little more shoulder in here for the Centaurs?

That thought was definitely in Ray.

"In the meantime... there's no way I'm doing this here forever, and it's time to go home. Though we've left some people behind in the settlements, still we should get home as soon as possible, right?

That's what Ray tells me in an unspeakably subtle atmosphere.

Those who were listening to it honestly nod at Ray's words, deciding that it would not make sense to say it in the present circumstances, although that was what I wanted to say a lot.

"Right. Fortunately... it's weird to say that, but I've done enough tummy.... a little sleepy though."

That's what Zai tells Ray as he nods at his words, but even to the others the words nodded honestly.

Until the fire whirlwind goes out, it's definitely enough to eat the dishes prepared by Ray and tummy.

But I've been watching Dragonias' home base all night, almost all night.

Originally, it may not be strange to get a little sleepy, but the home of Dragonias, which continues to cause great damage to us at the tip of our gaze, continues to be burned by flaming tornadoes.

Sometimes I'm excited, not very much, but I can't sleep in that situation, etc.

As a result, everyone here is currently sleepless.

... In that sense, Ray is sleepless again, just like any other face.

"So are we going to stay here another night today? A lot of people are nervous and tired."

In Ray's words, the Centaurs give a subtle look.

Of course, I'm glad to rest.

I'm nervous now, so I don't feel drowsy, but if I imitate things like going towards the settlement now, I definitely get tired along the way.

The fact that the person is nervous and is not able to recognize fatigue is probably the biggest problem in this case.

The Centaurs had that look because they knew it, too.

... In Ray's case, you don't have to worry too much about that area because that's what we'll be traveling on Ceto.

Also, Ray's body was originally made specially by Zeppyre Gate, so if you're curious about it, there's no point in staying up all night for a few days.

Nevertheless, I'm pretty sure you should rest.

Behind those faces, that's why Seto doesn't have to worry about the area at all.

Griffon's ceto, created by Warcraft, usually prefers to take a nap, but if you care about it, that's what makes it possible to stay up all night longer than Ray.

"I'm glad Ray feels like it, but still camping in this place... hey..."

Most of them are already burning, ash and charcoal, but there were tons of them here last night... and that's what countless dragonias were.

Camp in this place where such a large number of dragonias are dead.

That, to be honest, was something I absolutely wanted to shy away from, even as a centaur.

For Centaur, Dragonias is an abominable enemy.

That's for sure, but still...... if I still looked at one thing yesterday, I was pretty sure there was something about it that I thought was different.

I don't feel comfortable camping in a place like that.

To the words of Centaur, who tells him so, Ray returns briefly, saying yes.

Try Ray, and if the Centaurs say so, let's not camp here.

That's all I felt.

"Then you camp a little further away from here?... Fortunately, thanks to Dragonias and others, there are no enemies around here."

Creatures that can move would be eaten and killed by Dragonias, who used to be based here.

In that sense, this neighborhood was definitely a pretty safe place.

... Or if there was some creature in this neighborhood, you could have seen the fire whirlwind burning all night with its eyes, or seen the lights far away even if you couldn't recognize them.

Those who prefer to go to such a place are not necessarily there, but the number was definitely low.

If so, it was Ray's feeling that he wouldn't need to be particularly concerned about the area right now.

"When that happens, what about Dragonias, who just came back like that?

Surely those who were listening to the word of Dorat are convinced.

When I came back earlier, there was still a fire whirlwind.

Thanks to this, even if the Rays did nothing in particular, the Dragonias died from themselves.

But... the fire whirlwind is gone now.

If Dragonias, who had gone elsewhere, came back, there would be no death.

What will happen to the surviving Dragonias now that Dragonias, with the gold scales that had given the order, is dead?

Ray holds such a question, but it won't be the first thing that would solve it.

"I guess I'll have to leave you alone. I don't even know how scattered this meadow is. I'll wait here until all the dragonias come back... I can't do anything."

No, you can if you want to.

But if we were to imitate that, that would be the question of how long we have to stay here.

Ray's home is only a guild in Elgin.

There is currently additional construction going on in the Guild, and I can't do anything like leave it alone any more than Ray and Seto play a considerable role in that.

Nor will the aim of looking for Anastasia and Fana be possible in the situation that awaits us here.

(Oh, should I have checked to see if Dragonias had captured me for once?... Well, that's pretty unlikely)

If Anastasia and Fana had been found by Dragonias, they would have been eaten and killed before they could have been captured.

Although, naturally, Anastasia and Fana will not be killed by adultery either, and they will fight back.

Either way, it was unlikely that Anastasia and Fana were captured at this base... to say none, it should have been low.

"Either way, if you don't camp here, camp away, rest your body slowly for the night, and then leave tomorrow.... who disagrees?

No one speaks against Ray looking around with that affirmation.

He's a drat who doesn't think funny about Ray, but he still doesn't think his opinion is bad right now.

... If you're really worried about the settlement, there's no way Ray can get on Seto and go back to the settlement one step ahead.

But the question is if Ray and Seto can make it to the settlement safely.

This meadow doesn't have streets passing through it like it does around Elgin's Guild.

That's what makes every place a meadow.

An irresistible place to call the green sea.

Even if I were told that Ray and Seto, who are slightly tone-deaf, would be able to arrive safely in such an environment at a settlement location...... if I were someone who knew Ray and Seto, I would say it would be difficult.

If I lay it down, I honestly think Centaur, the guide who came straight from the settlement in a place like the meadow to this place where Dragonias is based, is amazing.

In that regard, the guide Centaur definitely outperformed Ray and Seto.

Most importantly, if you try the centaurs who were born and raised in this vast meadow, even where they look the same from Ray's point of view, there are actually a lot of fine differences, and I guess you remember that.

"Whatever... suppose it's time to go. How long will you stay here?"

The others obeyed Ray's words with great care.
