Legend

"You see the camp."

To such Ray's words, when the other Centaurs who were around him pointed their gaze in the direction of progress and made sure that there was indeed a camp there, they shouted joyfully.

"Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa!

After destroying Dragonius' stronghold, he kept running without rest.

With that in mind, it would be a pleasure to arrive at the camp... a place where we could rest.

Particularly pleased to be cheering are those who did not take a nap yesterday while waiting in the trenches.

Of course, I guess it won't be that much of a burden all night or so, beyond being the elite of being chosen as a scout team among Centaurs.

But if you like it because it's not a burden, the answer is no, as a matter of course.

If I could, I would be honest with you that I don't want to imitate all night etc.

Even if I know that, it hurts to not be able to take a break.

I guess that's why I was happy to see the camp.

(I hope Dragonias hasn't attacked me)

As for Ray, it's true that I was more worried about you.

Somehow they brought in a good number of troops left in the camp.

With that in mind, it would be natural to worry about the defensive power of the camp.

Most importantly, from what Ray has seen, there doesn't seem to be any particular problem with the camp.

I guess there was nothing like Dragonias raiding us while the Rays were gone.

"Now you're finally going to get some sleep."

"Oh, I was traveling on Ceto, and I knew you were tired?

Ray nods naturally at such a voice as he hears from behind.

"You've drained a lot of magic."

Magic that purifies Dragonias' body and keeps it from being undead.

That's magic that can't be activated for Ray, who is inherently only a flaming attribute.

But still, Ray was forced to activate the magic in half by using a lot of magic.

As a result, Ray's magic was consumed far more than he would normally use magic.

Most recently, there was a relationship in which more magic was used than the "flame of mourning", the "Heavenly Wheel of the Heavenly Ring", which consumed more magic than the "flame of mourning", and although the magic was depleted, it was not as intolerable.

But if you ask me if I'm still tired, it's only natural to say I'm tired.

"Hmm. I'm fine, though."

"I guess..."

That's what Ray returns when he sees Vihera looking like she's well.

The battle against the dragonias of silver scales was probably enough to satisfy Vihella.

The skin was even glossy.

That's what Ray doesn't know what to say, in that way, as if he can be satisfied enough to fight the dragonias of silver scales again from now on... after all, he says nothing more.

I'm pretty sure she's fine for now, so I figured it wouldn't be a problem.

That's how we talk, eventually we arrive at the camp.

Once again we see how the camp is up close and there's nothing unusual about it...... I mean, we go inside the camp, making sure there's no way Dragonias has been raiding.

Naturally, even those in the camp had noticed the rays approaching, and those who remained, starting with Zai, were laughing.

I wish I had sent the Rays out, but what would have happened if Dragonias had attacked the camp.

That's obvious without even thinking about it.

Of course, starting with Zai, those who still had the strength to fight in the camp had the strength to do so, but there was still a good chance of damage.

With that not happening in the end, the Rays are back, so I guess I can't tell you not to be happy with that.

"Ray, he used to come back safe and sound. Being back means you succeeded, right?

That's what Zai talks about, but he doesn't say what.

What that meant was because Ray also understood as a matter of course.

That's why I answer Zai's words by just snorting briefly.

And Zai, who saw Ray nodding, shows relief.

"Right.... In the meantime, get some rest. You must be tired.

"Right. After we wiped out the stronghold, we came back with just a light break. Just stay up all night and let your body rest a little."

Ray even tried to tell those who were acting with him to rest... but looking around again, those who were acting with Ray are talking to those who remained in the camp in an excited way about what sight they saw.

It was not the magic of Ray… but the battle between Vihera and the dragonias of the silver scales that we were talking about with enthusiasm at the time.

Again, Centauristically, so was Ray's magic, but I guess the Battle of Vihella meant a lot more.

"Uh... tell those guys to take a break when they get a paragraph too"

I was tired until I got back to the camp, so why are you getting better as soon as you get back?

With that in mind, Ray heads to the place where he places his magic tent with Seto and Vihera.

Naturally, a magic tent is very valuable to Ray.

Even in Elgin, it is not such an easy substitute to obtain.

Ray got this as a reward from Dusker, but I can tell you he was blessed with a lot of luck.

That's why, given the possibility that Dragonias will come while Ray is not here... and if anyone in Centaur is malicious to Ray, I don't think so, it could also be destroyed.

As far as I can predict that, it would be natural to store the magic tent in mystering.

… Although there was nothing like using the trench because it was made as a top priority that the trench itself could not be found by Dragonias.

"Ah..."

Seeing the Rays walking away, some people wanted to listen, especially those from Vihela who wanted to hear about the fight against the silver scales Dragonias, but Vihela is not well, but she is still not tired.

It's an unmistakable fact that I've been up all night, just like any other face.

Think of it, you should still sleep with Ray - although Ray is on the couch - rather than talk to the Centaurs here.

"Well, for now... because I think I'll be up in about half a day"

"Okay. I just think if anything happens in the meantime, I'll wake Ray up. Do you mind?

"That's not a problem. I don't want you to sleep until Dragonius strikes me or something."

Returning that to Zai's voice, heard from behind, the Rays relieved their current drowsiness for now.

"Hmm... uh... right"

I woke up on the couch. Ray sees what's going on around him and understands the situation.

If this is Inn, you can wake up soon even in the present situation if you are already in love for a while.

"Apparently, there wasn't a Dragonias raid or anything."

If there had been a raid on Dragonias, Zai would have come to wake him up.

That's how I understand that there was nothing particularly wrong with Ray even while he was asleep.

(What happened to Vihera?

As if you read Ray thought so, Vihera shows up from the bed.

Nevertheless, Vihera, who showed up, doesn't look like she's asleep or anything.

I have been completely checking myself out and it looks like I won't have a problem getting out of the magic tent right away or anything.

"Oh, good morning. It's a little late for that."

"Right. Is tiredness healed?

"Yeah. I don't have a problem with that. What about Ray's magic?

Ray used the word "condolence flame" on the understanding that the magic drain is greater than the added attribute of purification, which is different from the attribute of flame that Ray originally possesses.

Ray nods and opens his mouth to Vihera, who looks just a little worried.

"I have no problem with that. And compared to when you're using the Heavenly Wheel, there's not that much magic."

"Yes."

From that word, I guess I decided it was never Ray's fortitude.

Vihera laughs happily in relief.

I also had a grin when I fought the dragonias of silver scales, but the grin now in Vihella's mouth was completely different in its kind, even with the same grin.

"So... isn't it time for the rest of us to wake up? So, it's time to go outside?

"Right. There's nothing in particular to do right now.... and it's not strange that the other scouts are back."

"Really? Isn't it a little early to be back?... If I were to come back..."

"If you find a base, I guess."

Vihera had a belligerent grin that was completely different from the grin she was floating a few seconds ago.

Ray also understands what Vihera is saying naturally, so he won't return a word for its content.

Ray also gently checks his health, claiming to be hungry.

"You're hungry.... Should I have eaten something before I went to bed?

"You'd better eat now than that. It's not good for you to eat before bed."

As for Vihera, I just want to stop eating before I go to bed.

It's bad for your health, and you're likely to gain weight.

I'm not clearly theorizing and understanding, but I guess I understand the area from previous experience.

Of course, it's not absolute, but in some cases I eat something before I go to bed.

Ready Ray and Vihera go outside the magic tent.

Then, it was still afternoon... and that was sometimes still early in the evening, or the Centaurs were doing what they had to do to each of them.

After a little while, I guess I'll even start preparing dinner...... but now everyone is still having a loose time.

Nevertheless, this is already within the sphere of power of Dragonias.

I can't take a lighter look at the watch than I don't know when Dragonius will attack me.

Especially since this camp was built only on an extraordinary basis, there is no such thing as a fence.... Originally, there was no such thing as a fence in the settlement of the Centaurs.

"Ah."

Thinking that far, Ray notices it even more now.

It is difficult to prepare walls, but if trenches are built with terrain manipulation, it will be somewhat safer.

A trench built using terrain manoeuvres can easily be undone when you dump this camp.

(No, if this is within the Dragonias force zone, we need to fix something else... Oh, no. I'd be in trouble if Dragonias started using this place.)

Ordinary dragonias wouldn't think of using this place because it's dominated by hunger.

But Ray confirmed only two... that's why the special individuals present in the base alone are different.

We can give orders to other Dragonias, and on top of that, we can make them absolutely obey.

It is even more overwhelming than other dragonias.

"Ray? Are you awake? What's the matter with you?

"No, with my skills, I would sink and bulge the ground around this camp to a certain extent... and for now I thought it would be better than it is now."

"It's..."

Hearing Ray's words, Zai looks around the camp.

It's not like there's any kind of partition in particular, the camp.

"Right, right. I think that would help. But in our case, it's also advantageous to be able to travel from anywhere if something happens. I think it's a little difficult considering the neighborhood."

The only pedigree feature of Centaur beating Dragonias is mobility.

In order to get the most out of it, it would be more convenient to be able to move from every location in this camp rather than just from a few defined locations.

If you say so, I could only convince you as Ray.

Nevertheless, I did not change my mind that to some extent it would be better to consolidate my defense than some who are not good at fighting.

"Then direct me to a place where there seems to be no problem. There's no reason to leave the camp like this more than I just thought."

To Ray's words like that, Zai thinks a little.

Such a way as not to kill Centaur's mobility and then make it less likely to be raided by Dragonias.

"In the meantime, can you tell me what Ray can do? Then let's wrap it up."

That's what he said if he didn't know what the terrain operation was like after all, it wouldn't make sense.
