"Then be careful."

"Yeah, I know it's gonna take a little while before we find our home in the true sense of Dragonias, but I'll be careful around there,"

When he comes to another world through a hole that leads to another world, he exchanges words like that with Grimm and Ray rides on Seto's back.

Did Ray fix his mood with the baked confetti he gave him, Seto takes Ray on his back with no particular dissatisfaction and runs up to the sky with a few steps of help.

Grimm watched Ray and Seto like that for a while, but eventually disappears.

"Oh, you've arrived right away"

"Gru."

To Ray's words, Seto sounds a little sorry for his throat.

If you try Ceto, as far as you can see...... that's probably what makes the sight of the green horizon spreading with the sky flying pretty rare.

Similar sights exist in Elgin, but it is still unusual to call it a green horizon.

If you try Ceto, you naturally want to fly the place like that in full thought, and you think so.

Ray doesn't feel bad about hanging out with Seto like that either.

But given the current situation, there's no reason to imitate it like that...

Seto, come down.

"Grrrrrrrr"

To Ray's words, Seto descends towards a settlement on the ground, even though he seems only a little sorry.

You must have noticed the presence of Seto coming down from the sky. Outside the settlement were many centaurs gathered.

Some of them, naturally, look like Vihera.

Waving happily when I saw Ray and Seto, it seemed like I was enjoying life in different worlds to the fullest, which I wouldn't normally be able to.

(Still, Elgin and the basics aren't that different after all, though. There's a fine difference, though)

On living in this meadow, that's what life isn't much different from what it was in Elgin.

As far as Ray is concerned, it seems a little interesting if the other world alone is the kind of world where robots exist, or the kind of superpowers exist instead of magic.

Nevertheless, if it is also to be a contact with a world with unknown technology, that is even the possibility of war between the world and the world if you do poorly.

With that in mind, I guess it's still not a bad story that it was this world that connected, albeit the Whisp rampage.

"Did I make you wait?

"I haven't waited that long."

When Seto gets off the ground, and Ray also gets off Seto's back, he tells that to Vihera, who was right around the corner.

Then Vihera also returned so with a grin.

If it's some date-like exchange, I guess Vihella has been on such a Ray conversation after figuring it out, too.

"Then I don't mind.... By the way, didn't Dragonias come while I was gone?

"Unfortunately."

"No, as far as I'm concerned, it's better not to come to Dragonias."

Zai breaks into a conversation between Ray and Vihera.

If Dragonias attacked me, there are not so many opponents who can fight it.

More than that, you naturally don't want Zai's position to really attack you.

... As for Vihela, I honestly want her to attack me if there are ten or so, regardless of the number of hundreds or so, because no matter how much Dragonias is done, she is ruled by hunger and gives up.

"In the case of Vihera, I prefer to fight. In that sense, Dragonias must be just the right enemy.... So, what about exploring the home of Dragonias?

I'd ask Ray in places like the original for once, but Zay shakes his neck sideways just like Ray expected.

"No, not so many people can go on exploration in the first place"

"I guess..."

Where the Rays attacked before this...... it was thought to be home base but in the end it was only one of the bases.

But just looking for such a place, only one Centaur could come back safely in the search.

Beyond that, if we were to go looking for a similar place again, those who would run for it...... might be in the proud Centaur alone, but if we were to be one who actually had just the ability to stand it, that number would be so low.

Also, naturally, there's really no reason to break a lot more than you need to think about defending this settlement.

Ray knew what happened to the Centaurs, but he still thought maybe.

Nevertheless, Ray's words are not without any basis.

The settlement is the largest of the Centaur settlements.

Nowadays, many Centaurs are coming in search of safety in such settlements.

Some of them, naturally, are warriors… incorporating such people will also increase the defense of this settlement.

Nevertheless, it's really harder to build up a force than there aren't so many who really stand up for it.

"In the meantime, my situation is over, so I can be in this settlement for a while."

Other Centaurs, including Zai, give a delightful look to the words out of Ray's mouth.

Just because I know what Ray is capable of, if Ray is going to be in this settlement, that's why I understood that even if the Dragonias came by a hundred or a thousand people, it wouldn't be hard to deal with them.

... although some of them are happy with Ray and Seto's stay, aiming at Seto's adorability rather than Ray's power of war.

"Also, relying on me and Vihera forever shouldn't be fun for the Zays. So I'll train those who want to. Vihera is..."

"Right. You can do a mock fight if you like."

Listen to Ray and Vihera returns that briefly.

If you try it on Vihera, Dragonias would be a more fun opponent to fight than Centaur.

Nevertheless, Centaur also loses to Dragonias, but he definitely has enough strength nonetheless.

As for Vihera fighting, Centaur should never have been a bad opponent either.

... Nevertheless, it is still inferior to Dragonias.

"Sorry."

"Fine. If Centaur gets stronger, I'll have lots of benefits, and I'll be able to fight Dragonias all I want."

As for Vihela, I have the idea that fighting the Centaurs in this case might make her a little stronger.

Many Centaur and others are looking at such a vihella as helpful.

The same goes for Ray's strength, but there are many in the settlement who saw Vihera's strength.

Anyway, I defeated Ray and Vihera and the nearly hundred Dragonias who attacked me with only two and one Seto, so those who saw it naturally understand the strength.

"Grrrrrrrr"

I wonder if we will always be talking outside the settlement to Seto's ringing, and everyone will go inside the settlement.

Ray, Vihera, and Seto head straight to the drum tent as they are guided by Zai.

… at that time. I watched only Ray with a complex look on his face, but while Ray noticed it, he wouldn't imitate anything in particular to move into action.

I could have predicted that Dorat would have a lot on his mind, but that's why I decided that there was no point in doing something here.

"With that said, how are we communicating with the other settlements? I can't find the home of Dragonias. But did you let them know you crushed one base?

Apart from this settlement, there are other settlements in Centaur.

As a matter of course, he was trying to be cooperative with such settlements, but Ray hears that although some cooperated, some settlements refused.

The main reason for this would still be the kind of vested interest.

Even those who are chiefs in that settlement, who are in the position of warrior chiefs, or otherwise in various positions, are not necessarily in the same position as before, as a matter of course, if the settlement meets.

Whatever the position, if there is one whose arm is above his own, then naturally that person will take up that position on behalf of himself to date.

If there were those who could not tolerate it, and if they were more vocal in that settlement, they would naturally oppose the method of convergence of settlements.

Still, shouldn't we be sharing information about one Dragonias case? and so says Ray, while Zai nods quickly.

"Of course. The user has already sent it out. Nevertheless... I don't know how far another settler who heard this story will believe this information."

"I guess."

That's what the Centaurs who are actually attacked know best about how vicious Dragonias is.

Who the hell would immediately believe such dragonias when they say that they have exterminated one of their bases, even if not their home base?

... some will believe it if we take them to a place made into scorched earth by Ray's Fire Whirlwind.

But given the current situation, no one would think of sending those who would be a force of war from their own settlements that far away.

That is why it is difficult to prove this case.

"Whatever..."

It was Zai who tried to say something, but he stops the word when he arrives at the drum tent.

"Let's do this later after we're done talking to the chief. Is that okay with Vihera, too?

"Yeah, you don't mind, do you? I'm not that interested in what's going on around here."

If this were to mean that it would be possible to fight Dragonias more, Vihella would have also shown a stronger interest.

But the conversation that was going on between Ray and Zai is not about that kind of hand.

That's why Vihera didn't have any particular interest.

"Excuse me, sir. Ray is back."

"Um, come in."

Ray and Vihera go inside to the voices heard from inside the tent.

"Oh..."

I look at the drums that were in the tent, and there's a surprise coming out of Vihella's mouth.

Naturally. The drum is not just a centaur, because the horse's place is supposed to be Slapenil's body.

When Ray first saw it, he was surprised.

(Is that it? But at the feast, anyway, didn't Vihera meet the drums or anything while I was gone?

Given the drum's character, it didn't seem strange to Ray to tell Zai to bring Vihera.

But as far as Vihera was concerned now, it was definitely like I'd never met Drum before.

If Ray had met with a drum before he arrived, he wouldn't have to bother to hide it in that case.

Because I'm pretty sure it's still going to be the first time we've met.

Seeing Ray showing such confusion, the drums are somewhere mean...... that's what makes me laugh like I did it.

"Apparently, you're surprised."

"... I don't think you're very hobbyist."

"Don't be in such a bad mood. It's not like Noon really imitated something like this just out of prank."

To the drum word, is that true? and Ray with some doubts.

Nevertheless, given the current situation, I couldn't help but think that Ray would.

"... well, fine. So the current situation, what's going on? From what Zai told me, there are very few people who can explore the home of Dragonias."

"Mm-hmm. Unfortunately, you're right. Of course, if you try to force the numbers out, you can. But......"

"If Dragonias finds you, you'll almost certainly die"

Zai inherits the words of the drum.

In fact, the Centaurs, who found the base where the Rays attacked, were all killed, except those who accompanied the Rays as guides... No, they were eaten to death.

Naturally, I guess the first ones to leave as scouts were suitably arm standers.

In fact, Ray found that Centaur, who came with him as a guide, had the strength to do so.

Ray also understands that it is difficult to get the less skilled to scout.

"When that happens... I guess I'll go?

"Can you come back here? Just one side of the meadow, if we get away from here... especially if it's empty, it's hard to come back, right?

Ray had a hard look at Vihera's words.
