Legend

To Ray's inquiry, Larrier opens his mouth with a strange look.

"Is Dragonias weathered? No, I... honestly, I don't know what you mean."

The look on Larrier's face, who answers that, though not very much, doesn't look like he's lying.

When that happens, perhaps Larrier doesn't really know one thing about weathering, yes Ray expects.

That prediction seems to have been the same for Vihera, who sees a larrier with a strange look on his face and opens his mouth.

"Whatever you're talking about, keep the word. I tried to dispose of Dragonias' body, which I knocked down last night, because it's inconvenient because it smells like rot and plague and undead... I went to the woods and the body was already weathering last night"

Thanks to this, I don't have to worry about starting to rot.

While Ray snorted at Vihera's words that went on, are you sure you're okay? thoughts like that.

In fact, you don't have to worry about the smell of rot, I'm sure.

The undead also doesn't have to worry about the undead in the sense of zombies and skeletons more than just meat but even bones will weather if it stays this way.

It doesn't necessarily mean it won't be undead like Reis or Ghost.

Of all that, the only thing Ray is worried about is the plague.

Weathering means that Dragonias' body becomes dust, rides the wind, and scatters around.

Beyond that, it would naturally be worrying if some plague would not be spread by its dust.

(For some reason, I'm sure it would be more secure and reassuring if I purified it.... but in order to do that, I need to collect the bodies, and I can't do that because of the weathered situation)

Isn't that what makes it safer to purify and burn the forest itself? Raleigh even thought of that, but Raleigh asks Raleigh like that.

"Well, in the woods, I mean, what happened to the bodies that were in the settlements?

Larrier also knows that in last night's battle there was a battle in the settlement besides in the woods.

And that we beat Dragonias against them.

Beyond that, it is only natural that there is a body in this settlement, and what happened to that body?

He was a larrier who mouths such questions, but opens his mouth to such larriers that Ray should be honest here, a little unsure how to answer them.

"The bodies that were killed in the settlement, as they were... I don't know if they were fresh and the expression would be worthy in this case, but they were bodies like that either way"

"Does that... mean it happened because he was killed in this settlement and the body was inside this settlement?

"I don't know. I don't know the neighborhood, so I was wondering if Larrier from this settlement knew anything, and this is how I came to ask..."

Having said that, it didn't seem to me that I was aware of any circumstances, though not very much if I saw Larrier's condition.

(I mean, if anyone knew about this, is that something like the upper echelons of the settlement)

But all the upper layers are eaten and killed by Dragonias, and only a few of the settlements survive.

Only the really lucky ones survived, including Larrier.

... but if you were really lucky, this wouldn't have happened.

"Oh, but... they told me not to go out into the woods as much as possible. When I heard that, I thought Dragonias was telling me not to find it, but then maybe..."

"I see. I guess you naturally knew the danger of the forest up there. … so, assuming the body of Dragonias who died in this settlement remains fresh, it turns out that only this settlement is special"

To Ray's words, Larrier thought a little...... eventually nodded.

"Right. When I was living in this settlement, there was nothing particularly strange about it. With that in mind, I don't think there's anything particularly wrong with the settlement."

"Surely Larrier's clan moved into this forest trying to escape Dragonias, didn't it? Then who the hell decided that?

"That's... I honestly don't know, but I think it's the chief and the people around it"

Larrier is only an ordinary person in the settlement.

That's why I didn't know exactly who had moved the settlement here, or else the extent of the settlement...... Dragonias or how did you build the barrier in such a range as a prep for anything else.

If I know what's going on around here, I think it would be quite preferable for Ray.

"It hurts that the guy who knows the area in detail is dead.... I wish I had something left like a clue..."

"It must be difficult. In the first place, many of the tents are broken in the battle against Dragonias. If there's any kind of clue, I don't know if it's still there."

That's what Vihella tells Ray to continue his words.

Still for once, Ray asks Larrier where the tent of the head of this settlement was.

He wants it to be in a place where he hasn't done mining work if he can, hoping so.

If the tent is safe, I can recognize that the bigger tent than the others is the longer one, but unfortunately the majority of the tents in this settlement are destroyed when Dragonias attacked them... and when the Rays reclaim this settlement.

Not to mention the fact that other tents, including those that were in the place where the mining work was carried out, are also likely to stand in the way of future mining work, which has already been cleaned up.

Some things still seem to work, so I collect them in one place instead of discarding them all... they are quite large just for the tent where the Centaurs live.

If such a tent tried to find any clues from where it had been cleaned up, it would certainly require a lot of effort.

As for Ray, I didn't want to imitate that if I could... the Goddess of Destiny was brutal.

"It was already destroyed, so I think it's with the rest of the tent wreckage"

I can't say anything back to Larrier who tells me that, as Ray.

"Well, then, for now, one of today's jobs is to look for clues to that, fortunately, there's only quite a few of them."

"Oh, don't you have to turn the numbers around to those working in the mining?

"There's Seto over there, you're gonna be okay."

"Gru!"

To Ray's word, leave it to me! and a throat-beating ceto.

If you try Ceto, digging the ground isn't that hard.

Originally, Seto's strength was so strong that he could easily dig with his forelegs.

... it wouldn't be strange to think that I would be very jealous if I tried to be one of those people participating in other mining operations.

Because even from Ray's point of view, I even think that having Seto is actually enough to dig the ground.

Nevertheless, it is also true that, in practice, the more diggers there are, the more mining work will proceed.

The only difficulty is that Centaur is not as big as Dragonias, either, compared to ordinary people like Ray and Vihera - both sides, but not exactly ordinary people.

So if Centaur were to do the mining work, it would really be less than humans doing the mining work.

... For the Zays of Centaur, that's normal.

I have a strong impression that if you try it on Ray, there will really be fewer people involved in mining operations only for the amount of Centaur there is.

It also seemed never a bad means of turning that extra manpower around to find clues, beyond the fact that the number of people actually felt extra.

Ray explains so, but Vihera opens her mouth with a slightly suspicious gaze.

"Hey, are you sure you're okay? There's definitely someone hanging over here, right?

"It's..."

Beyond looking for clues, as a matter of course, you need to be careful in that case.

Not very much, but there was no way I could do such an imitation in a state of hangover.

"I didn't mean to serve that much booze."

Ray whining with doubt, but Ray himself doesn't drink, so I don't know exactly how much booze the Centaurs get drunk.

Also, I didn't realize in person...... one of the barrels Ray gave me yesterday contained a pretty high degree of liquor.

The cause of the hangover in Centaur is its booze.

Ray had appropriately bought and collected liquor for the time being, so he didn't know much about the type of liquor… as a result, a high degree of liquor was to be served.

But if I gave it back, there was a chance that the fine liquor in Ray's mysteries would be served.

Nevertheless, the luxury liquor in Ray's mysteries doesn't mean it's that luxurious.

Japan… No, on Earth, that's what millions of yen a bottle of wine exists.

Ray's mysteries don't contain that many substitutes, albeit fancy liquor.

Either way, Ray, not at all aware that he served a high number of liquors, opens his mouth with a little thought.

"When that happens, turn the guy who's not hungover to someone who looks for clues, and the hangover guys are from mining. If you move your body and sweat, your hangover will heal."

Ray remembers that his father went to the sauna to cure his hangover when he was in Japan, and tells him so.

... In fact, it's very dangerous to go into the sauna with a hangover and it's not a good idea to do it.

All you need to cure your hangover is tons of water... that's about a litre of water to drink.

Happy or unhappy, I had no knowledge of Ray since he came to Elgin, because I or my body had never been hungover.

"Really? Well, I don't mind if Ray does.... Besides, I have a problem staying hung over more than I know when the new Dragonias are coming."

To the words of Vihera, Ray nods as he agrees.

If dragonias emerged from the woods like last night, I don't know where they would come from into the settlement.

At such a pivotal time, if it comes to things like not being able to protect non-combatants with hangovers, etc...... only the worst consequences exist there.

The hangover and failure to protect non-combatants would be something that even the Centaurs wouldn't want to think about.

For that reason, Ray takes Vihera and Seto, and Larrier, to a group of hangovers.

"Seto, please"

"Grrrrrrrrrrrrrr!"

"Whoa, whoa, whoa!

At the hangover, Seto's chirping accidentally echoed around him.

The hungover centaurs groan at the sound in their heads.

But regardless of such faces, Ray speaks up to the Centaurs, who are falling to the ground like tuna rising to land.

"Wake up, it's time for work. As I said last night, I don't know if you guys are hungover, but I'll get the job done. First, raise your hand if you're not hungover."

Following Ray's instructions, about ten people raise their hands.

Ten of these.

Ray wondered what to react to that, but for now he only decides that he should be happy that there are about ten people who are not hungover.

"You guys check the remains of this settlement's chief tent to see if you have any information about this settlement."

"Uh, what does that mean?

One of the Centaurs asks that without knowing what Ray is talking about.

I wonder why we need to find out so much about this settlement.

In such a facade, Ray explains the sight he saw outside the settlement... in the woods.

I could not immediately believe such an explanation, naturally, but it is obvious that Dragonias' body is weathered if we actually leave the settlement and go see it all the way to the forest.

If they show evidence, they can't help but believe those who were suspicious.

And the bodies that remain in the settlement are not weathered at all.

Given that, it was an unmistakable fact that only in this settlement was anything special.

That's why the Centaurs, not hungover, would have understood Ray telling them to find out if there was anything about this settlement.

"So... we..."

A hungover centaur asks Ray that in anticipation of the word you can rest.

But... Ray instructed the Centaurs to do the mining ruthlessly.
