"Whoa! Suddenly!?

Ray, who was fighting in the woods, is suddenly surprised to see the Dragonias and the others roar and start rambling.

Until recently, even though the trees in the woods could not be moved while not breaking, it is now rampant that even if the surrounding trees are damaged in this way, it has nothing to do with it.

In fact, the trees in the woods have already suffered quite a bit due to the dragonias that began to rumble.

Basically, the trees in the woods are quite sturdy... but given Dragonias' physical abilities, the degree can be easily broken to such an extent that there is no problem at all.

Of course, there are many differences between the trees growing in the forest, so some of them are not easy to break even in Dragonias.

However, such trees are naturally small in number… around the area with Dragonias, the number of trees is rapidly decreasing.

Of course, the only thing Dragonias does is break the trees.

The attack was also carried out, naturally, on Vihera, who was moving to sew the gaps in the trees and on Ray, who was attacking and damaging Dragonias from behind, who was unable to move.

... No, Ning Lo. In this case, it would be more accurate to state that Dragonias, unable to attack Ray and Vihera, is rampant in the woods.

"Whoa!... What's really going on all of a sudden? No, well, that's not a bad situation for me!

The last time I scream, I wield the death size I took out of the mysteries, cutting off the neck of Dragonias, who tried to stick his fangs against me.

The fact that Dragonias has been able to destroy the surrounding trees and move freely naturally makes that space profitable for Ray as well.

Being able to afford the space to wield a death size was more advantageous to Ray than any other in fighting.

No, overall, Ray would obviously have been more advantageous in terms of being able to freely handle Ning Lo Death Size.

Dragonias didn't seem to follow his head on things like which was in his favor, he only thought about things like eating and killing Ray.

Such dragonias strike at Ray simultaneously from all around them.

... Sometimes being here is a distance from where you are fighting Vihera, and I guess it feels more like an easy dish nearby than a faraway treat.

Nevertheless, even if it is a casual meal for Dragonias, in fact, that casual meal has the fighting power to the point of viciousness.

For that reason, one dragonias attack after another cannot capture Ray in any way.

On the contrary, with the trees growing around him broken and space available, Ray fought with a two-spear stream of Death Size and Dusk spears... whereby Dragonias dies one after the other.

That's how more Dragonias' bodies get on the ground, and if they run out of foot stomps, Ray moves the battlefield.

Corpses that are produced in mass succession.

Seeing that, Ray continued the fight without looking particularly concerned... if he realized, Dragonias' appearance had almost disappeared.

"Phew. … it's quite a hassle to collect this"

The trees in the woods, and the bushes, make the body of Dragonias difficult to find.

Ray also understood that, so he murmured that it was hard to collect the body.

Nevertheless, it would naturally not be possible to imitate it so as to leave it alone, beyond the possibility of being undead if the bodies were not collected.

With that in mind, heading to the place where Vihela would be fighting...... even then, Dragonias' body was rolling all over there.

Like Ray, if he had fought to some extent and had more Dragonias bodies on the ground, he would have imitated things like moving places to fight.

That's why the bodies were rolling around there in the same way Ray did.

"Oh, are you done over there?

"Oh. I don't know why, but I just burst out of nowhere along the way."

"That's it. I wonder what happened.... Here."

Yes, what Vihella showed was a broken tree trunk.

If you look at the wounds on the vicinity of the broken spot, you can be sure that was done by Dragonias' attack.

Scars are nail marks, and in the sense of nails, you can stretch magic nails out of Vihella's armor as well... even if those nail marks are similar weapons, scars are distinctly different.

"Oh, I wondered that, too. I wonder why I suddenly started imitating that when I tried not to break a tree at first"

"... Possible possibilities are that the order of Dragonias of the Silver Scale no longer works? Dragonius was fighting to avoid causing damage to his surroundings, obviously because someone was giving Dragonius some sort of order."

"That's what I thought, too. Even with Dragonius stuck between the trees, he didn't even move without a rampage."

As a result, Dragonias, unable to move, was killed one after the other by Ray.

Nevertheless, the number of dragonias actually killed by Ray can be more of a blow at death size than a spear at dusk.

This is against a dusk spear that can only kill one at a time with a poke, whereas a death size that can be swayed by a horizontal giraffe can attack multiple dragonias with a single blow...... it would be huge.

As a result, it would have worked in Ray's favor for Dragonias to move to destroy the trees around him.

"From the way you put it, didn't Ray knock you down?

Vihera with an unexpected look on her face.

That's what I thought Ray defeated the silver scaly dragonias more than he had defeated.

But Ray says he hasn't defeated someone like that.

If so, who defeated...... the answer is not so difficult.

Ray and Vihera's gaze is aligned and directed toward the settlement.

There you are, Seto.

For the Griffon of the Rank A monster alone, its strength is extremely powerful...... no, it's clearly above the normal Griffon for using his skills in the presence created by Warcraft.

In fact, it is also rated a monster of rank S by Guild.

"Seto can't help it."

"Right. But... maybe Zai and the others worked together to take him down, not Seto... no, isn't that it? Even though he's getting stronger with his training with Vihella, he's still not strong enough to fight the dragonias of silver scales."

Ray immediately denies the word himself while thinking it might be the Zays.

In fact, maybe if the Zays get together and challenge Dragonias to fight, he can win, but in that case, if he wins, he's definitely suffering a lot.

That's what it feels like to be half dead.

Before that happened, Seto was definitely supposed to intervene.

(Thinking about it, it was my best choice to ask Seto to protect the settlement.... Well, I don't know if silver scaly dragonias really showed up in the settlement)

With that in mind, Ray went back to the settlement with Vihera...

"Copper...?

"Gru!"

What Ray and Vihera saw back in the settlement was a copper scale dragonias, clearly smaller than the normal dragonias.

"Gold, silver, copper... no, well, it's not like I can't coincide. It wouldn't be the Olympics."

Awesome? Praise and praise. While stroking Seto, who shows with such attitude, Ray mutters so unexpectedly.

The Olympics? and those who didn't sound familiar with Ray's words were leaning their necks, but I know the Rays came to this meadow from another place.

I mean, I guess it's something from where the Rays came from, and I don't think so and ask any more.

Vieira, who is seen to be of the same origin as Ray, also naturally did not know the word Olympic.

But Vihera knows that Ray came from different worlds to our own.

More than that, I'm convinced Ray would have something to do with where he used to be, and this one doesn't ask now either.

Though I was going to ask later.

I guess that's what I thought when it seemed kind of funny.

Ray, who doesn't realize Vihera is thinking that, when he takes his hand off Seto, stores the copper scaly dragonias in the mistering.

If it were a normal dragonias corpse, it would have been in the mistering so hard that I couldn't think of collecting it anymore, but the dragonias of the copper scales...... if it were a supposedly inferior compatibility of the dragonias of the silver scales, I would have acted that way if I didn't know what it would do later.

"Ray, this dragonias... what do you think you came to the settlement for?

With that being asked, Zai's gaze was directed at a part of the settlement… where he was doing mining work.

It shows with such an attitude that we are certain that we have come looking for something that we are trying to dig out of, although what is in our mouth for a purpose is actually something that is obviously in this settlement…

I guess Zai isn't the only one with that opinion, as are the others.

Turn your gaze and wait for Ray's words.

"As Zai expected, I guess he came looking for something buried in the basement of this settlement. Nevertheless... there was nothing to be gained in this case."

"Specifically?

"The fact that these Dragonias arrived in this settlement at this hour means that we attacked the settlement… it is likely that we attacked precisely and came to see the smoke or something that burned Dragonias' body.... maybe he was just accidentally headed for this settlement with backpacking or something."

If you came here looking at the smoke that burns Dragonius' body, you can calculate a group of strongholds led by Dragonius the Copper Scale… or how far away the home of Dragonius is from this settlement.

It was Ray's expectation that Dragonias would not be that far away either, as the speed of travel was not that fast compared to Centaur.

It's only a prediction, but still, I'm pretty sure the search narrowed down a lot more than looking for a base in Dragonias without any basis.

"I see. Did these people come from their home base, or from their base? I don't know about that neighborhood, but is it still possible?"

Does Zai agree with Ray, too, and squeals like that?

Nevertheless, although Dragonias travels slower than Centaur, it is usually faster than humans walk.

On top of that, given the time between burning Dragonias' body and detecting Seto approaching the settlement, what do you care? Dragonias has a pretty wide range of activities.

Of course, it is true that this one is much narrower than looking for it without any clue.

"Whatever, look for the enemy's home base... after tomorrow. You should get some sleep today."

"... in this situation, it seems like a lot of people can't sleep"

The battle has just ended.

Unless this is like a simulated battle, it's a life-threatening battle.

That too, the opponent is Dragonias, a lodging enemy who is taking control of Centaur one after the other.

It is after such a battle with an opponent that, naturally, many were still in excitement.

If you ask me if I can sleep in an excited situation, the answer is no…

"In the meantime, still drink this and go to sleep. Tomorrow...... no, today already? Anyway, I'm pretty sure you're busy."

That said, it was the barrel that Ray took out of the mistering.

I bought it from Gilm.

It's not for Ray to drink himself, it's for some kind of deal... or for use at times like this.

And while the Centaurs were surprised by the sudden booze, they rejoiced.

As for Ray, I served him with the intention of sleeping alcohol, but he seems to be such a delight, as if he's going to do it at a banquet from now on.

(Was it a failure?

Ray doesn't drink, so he didn't think he'd make a fuss so far when he saw the booze.

Nevertheless, it doesn't make sense anymore if this happens.

That's why there could even be a revolt if we were to take the liquor badly here.

... Although the expression rebellion may not be worthy, as Zai is actually the one who holds the scout team together.

Whatever it is, Ray decides that while stunned by the Centaurs, it may be just fine in the sense of relieving the previous stress, and removes some more drunken barrels from the mysteries.

"I'm telling you, I'm not gonna give you a break from work tomorrow because I'm hungover."

That's all he said, leaving the cheering Centaurs on the spot with Seto and Vihera.
