Legend

"Oh, look. I can see it."

Keeping the meadows running, for a few hours.

It won't take long for Seto to travel in the sky, but as he runs on the ground, that much time passes, and so Asdena finally tells him so.

When Asdena turned her gaze to those indicated by the spear, there was a settlement there.

And definitely a familiar settlement for Ray.

In the settlement where Zai is, there is no mistake.

Even from a distance, the size of that settlement is clearly different from that of the Asdena settlement.

Looking at such a settlement, Ray opens his mouth.

"You're back....... ah"

I was happy to squeal, Ray, but I watch the rapidly approaching settlement, and I realize.

Right on the side of the settlement, he said there was a body of Dragonias.

Not nearly a hundred, as before, quite a few.

I thought that was about five of them, but that's definitely a corpse there.

"Veaeye"

You found such a body, the meadow wind raises an odd voice.

And hearing the wind of the meadows, Asdena also raised her voice of surprise when she discovered the body, which had likewise been placed outside the settlement.

"Hey, Ray! Isn't that Dragonias' body!? That settlement..."

"I guess they attacked us while we were gone. But as you can see from that corpse, you succeeded in defeating it."

"No, but... it's Dragonias, isn't it?

From Asdena's mouth, she speaks out in such a way as to be very, but incredible.

If we try Asdena, we have to be prepared for a considerable struggle if Dragonias comes out, even five in our own settlements.

Unlike Zai's settlement, for a small size, the number of warriors is really low.

On top of that, warrior skill is not that high.

The difference around here is in the form of a large reflection of the size of the settlement.

Because there are few warriors present in the settlement, everyone's skill becomes there.

... Now it's not strange to think about catching up or outrunning one or more fighters who stand out.

Although Asdena has the highest strength in the settlement, it is not that much of a protruding skill.

Ray actually tried to fight in a mock fight, and if you look among the warriors in Zai's settlement, it's only about as strong as inside... or up below.

(And... maybe...)

Although Asdena is surprised and perhaps thinks it was Centaur in the settlement who defeated Dragonias, Ray's expectations are different.

I had no idea that Vihera... Vihera, who loved battle so much, would give up a monster opponent named Dragonias to anyone else.

And the fact is, if we get close, it's not a long sword or a spear-like wound, but a beating... in some cases, it becomes understandable that he's dead, even though there's no trauma.

Most importantly, Vihella's armor and toenails have the function of being able to make nails and blades by magic, so if she feels that way, the wound may be slashed.

"Gru."

"Hmm? Yeah, you're welcome from the other side, too."

Seto teaches that some Centaur came out of the settlement, and Ray gives a convincing look when he sees it.

There is something somewhat like a vestige of vision, probably because it was the same flow in the settlement of Asdena.

But what is different in this settlement from the one in Asdena would be that this settlement is one with Zai and has a firm understanding of the existence of Ray and Seto.

That's why I'm not as alert as I was when I was in Asdena... I should have...

"Ray, you... isn't that the meadow wind? Why..."

It sounds so surprising when Zai sees the meadow wind, who has shown much tiredness as to whether it is the result of his training with Vihera.

"Veaeye?"

The meadow wind looked at the surroundings with no apparent concern for being surprised that way.

Ray, who watched it right on the side, seemed as if the grassland winds were firmly confirming where he was supposed to live.

(Not like that, I guess it actually is.... I wonder what will happen)

From Ray's point of view, this settlement is crowded with many, and there seems to be nothing particularly unsavory about the meadow winds living in it.

If the grassland winds didn't like the bustling places, though there was plenty of potential for problems.

I just don't see that happening in the meadow breeze from what Ray has seen.

"Whatever you say, I'll just say it's because I captured you. Did I help you, exactly?

The words are both correct in a sense.

It was definitely no mistake to help the grassland winds that were being attacked by Dragonias, and at the same time to make Seto acknowledge his existence by his power and Ray's strength.

Beyond that, the explanation is both correct now.

Explaining the circumstances around it, Zai holds his head.

(You must be tired of Vihella's rigorous training)

While shifting responsibilities, I find myself fuzzy.

"Is that it? What about Vihera? That dragonias was defeated by Vihera, wasn't it?

"That's right. I fought with a lot of joy.... To be honest, some people are even scared of such vihelas"

"I guess."

Ray also understands the feelings of those who are scared.

Vihera's passion for battle...... she deserves to call it obsession. I guess that's not strange to be afraid of it if you try to be the one who doesn't know anything.

What Ray didn't care about that area is the strong side of compatibility.

Or, because I enjoyed many comics, novels, cartoons, games and other subcultures when I was in Japan, there was one side to the fact that it was not uncommon for characters of that character to come out.

"So, what about that vihella?

"Considering that Dragonias has attacked me, I'm going around a little bit thinking there might still be other Dragonias around"

"Around?... I hope I'm not lost."

Don't you say that.

That's what Asdena's gaze seemed to say, but Ray ignores it.

Seeing such an exchange between the two, I wonder why Zai has Asdena here.

A glimpse of Ray with a glimpse of his squeaky expression gives Asdena a word of thanks.

"I'm glad you brought Ray"

"No, when I saw you taking the meadow wind, I thought you were the enemy at first... but you have two legs, but you're strong"

Two legs has nothing to do with strength, yes Ray said several times, but if you try Asdena, you should still definitely be detained there.

To Asdena, who tells him so, Zai nods as if he could tell.

I've been friendly with Zai since the beginning, but still, it's not like I had nothing to think about against two-legged Ray.

Most of all, Ray had more strength than he expected.

"Mm-hmm. That's convincing. Whatever it is, stop by the settlement. We can't just leave those who helped our benefactor behind."

Neither does Zai's settlement ever afford food.

Ning Lo, there will be anxiety around, so Ray went hunting with Seto in search of some prey.

... In the end, I couldn't find my prey and instead it was the meadow wind that I found.

Most importantly, this is also a great pleasure for Zai.

Because the grassland wind is something to honor if you try to be a living man on this grassland.

Such a meadow breeze came to our own settlement, so it was more impossible not to rejoice.

Nevertheless, there were issues such as what to do with meadow wind food.

Asdena shakes her neck sideways, although she may not have seen through Zai's inner parts.

"I'm happy with Zai's feelings, but I need to get back to the settlement soon, too. Especially if you saw Dragonias' body like this."

If you say so, I won't be able to say anything more as Zai.

Even in my position, I would behave the same way as Asdena would if the same thing happened.

Zai nods briefly more than he can tell.

"Okay. Then I hope your settlement is safe. … If anything happens, I want you to contact me."

If you try Zai, he's the one who brought me Ray, the benefactor of this settlement, in a settlement relatively close by.

More than that, when something happened... specifically, if Dragonias had contacted me when I was raided, I would have naturally intended to help.

Although the settlement of Asdena is nearby, it is only near from the point of view of this meadow and, in fact, it takes several hours in places such as neighborhood.

If you still have wings that fly in the sky like Ceto, even Centaur can't get to the settlement of Asdena that easily.

Not to mention that the settlement of Centaur is basically made on the assumption of travel, so there is no such thing as a wall like Gilm, and Dragonias can come in from anywhere.

... which means that if Dragonias attacked me, I could escape from anywhere.

Either way, there's no doubt there's nothing more we can do if Dragonias strikes us than to be such a settlement.

Still, Zai said, thinking maybe.

As far as Zai's honest feelings are concerned, it can be temporary for the Asdena settlement, so I want them to rendezvous with their own.

But the matter has naturally been held up before, and it was not something we should be talking about here and now more than we have been refused.

"Okay, then."

"Oh. Again."

Zai and Asdena exchanging words briefly.

And Ray also speaks to Asdena, who tried to leave the scene quickly.

"I'm glad you showed me this far."

"Gru!"

Seto also squeals again, as Ray's words follow.

The meadow wind had taken the attitude of saying that both of the two heads were not interested in Asdena, pointing their gaze around them.

Most of all, unlike Seto, who can fully understand a person's language, Ray didn't know if the grassland wind could understand the language, so I didn't particularly care.

"Oh, you come by again. … but don't get lost this time."

With that said, Asdena runs off the spot.

As for Ray, I wanted to say something back, but in this place where one side of the meadow is spread in the first place, and it's nothing. I wasn't born and raised here, and there's no such thing as a street.

In such a place, it was more impossible for Ray or Seto, who had just come here, not to get lost.

"Ray, for now... what are we gonna do with the meadow wind? Honestly, I have a problem with people coming in and getting busted like this."

Zai also knows how strong the meadow winds are, naturally, more than living in this meadow.

He also runs faster than Centaur, who was known as the prairie champion before Dragonias arrived.

It was only natural for such a presence to put the meadow wind in the settlement if you try to make it Zai and figure out what you should do if you were even ravaged.

"As for the meadow winds, I don't think you have to worry about the area"

"Why?

Ask Ray, who confidently tells him, with a look of doubt.

The meadow winds, many have ever tried to capture… or defeat.

But it all ended in failure.

It's all because of an individual's ability to have the grassland wind, which is why Zai is honestly unconvinced even when talking to Ray.

But against Zai like that, Ray opens his mouth as he looks at Seto.

"I was reminded that even if it were the same monster, I would still have the character of being."

To that word, Zai...... and has never uttered a word before, but the Centaurs who came with Zai also see Seto.

And at the next moment, I'm convinced even with a complicated look on my face.

All the warriors in this settlement knew how powerful Seto was.

... I guess I'll have another feeling if I try to be the ones who got hit by Seto's adorability.

I know the strength of Seto, but still, as one who lives in this meadow, the meadow wind is to be revered… in some cases even admired.

It's not surprising that such a meadow breeze was followed lightly by the character of existence in Seto - although from Ray's point of view he looked more like a friend than he would obey - so it's a complicated look.

"Meadow Wind"

"Vee?"

Reply to Ray's words, pointing one of his faces.

Ray decides so, although he seems to understand the words properly, that perhaps the term 'meadow wind' indicates his name more than he actually seems to understand the words of others.

All in all, the first thing we decided to do was put the meadow wind inside the settlement once.
