"In the meantime, will you store this spotted dragonias' body?"

Ray looks around as he houses the corpse of a spotted dragonias cut up and down the torso by the death size in mystering.

Present in the surroundings are the bodies, bodies and bodies of Dragonias.

However, almost all of its corpses had been turned into charcoal by Ray's magic, and he didn't have to worry about being undead even if left alone.

... No, or even if it didn't have to be a zombie or a skeleton, there was plenty of potential to be the Ghost kind.

Nevertheless, this place is very far from forest settlements.

If Seto can fly, it won't take long to get back, but that's only because Seto's flight speed is fast out of common sense.

Beyond that, even if the Dragonias became undead here, there would be no harm to Ray or the Centaurs.

On the contrary, it is only profitable for the Ningro Rays, beyond the possibility of being attacked by the dragonias passing through this area.

(No, well, I really don't know if it's going to be undead)

Not all corpses, even if they are Elgin, not just in this world, are sure to be undead.

That's what makes it more likely that it won't be undead in probability.

Of course, if there were such things as resentful land, rituals to become undead, or performing rituals to do so, it would have been different.

"Grrrrrrrr?"

What's Seto going to do to Ray, who was looking around at the body? and honking his throat.

"If I were you, I'd like to destroy Dragonias' stronghold a little bit more or look for a home base."

I came into contact with a spotted dragonias that I had never encountered before.

With that in mind, I'm pretty sure this neighborhood isn't so far from the home of Dragonias.

Then what the hell happens if we focus here and look around?

Maybe it was a degree of possibility...... but still maybe we could find the home of Dragonias.

Beyond that, getting away from here in the present situation is also less preferable to Ray.

Ray thinks so smudgingly in the sunset light.

It's not that I don't have the feeling that if I come back here tomorrow... but the question is, can I come back here tomorrow?

Like a forest settlement, it was different if it was any kind of big landmark, but unfortunately nothing here seems to be landmark.

If you are a dragonias who has lived in this meadow, it is not strange to be able to grasp this position even with a slight topographical change... Instead of being born and raised in this meadow, if you are Ray from a different world called Elgin, you cannot imitate this kind of place if you look here.

... Not to mention that in Ray's case, he wasn't born and raised in Elgin, so it would be even worse.

(If you're a sharp adventurer in that respect, maybe you can figure it out)

Adventurers in the Guild are often skilled.

Some of them are naturally highly capable as bandits, and it would be natural skill to know exactly where you are if you try to be such a person.

"In the meantime...... I'm sorry to hear that, but shall we go back today? For once, I've left a lot of food, so I don't have to go back for a few days."

"Gru?"

Are you sure? And Seto rings his throat.

Because I know Ceto about Ray's character, or I knew he thought he was going to continue his exploration like this today.

Nevertheless, as Ray, I could fully understand what Seto was thinking.

"You should show the guys in the settlement about the spotted dragonias. Later...... right. I just want to come back here tomorrow if I can...... what do you say?

"Grrrrrrrrrr......"

I guess I can't reply to Ray's words with a confident voice like OK from the bottom of my heart because Seto still understands that I'm a little directional tone-deaf too.

Other than that, if you leave it till tomorrow in this situation, it's possible that your buddy Dragonias will do something about it, or... less likely than Dragonias is doing this, but the animals and other monsters will survive, or the dead will be eaten by insects.

Ray's magic makes most of the corpses coal, but there are also corpses inside that are in a state such as semi-burning.

Such a corpse would be the perfect treat for animals, monsters and worms.

Depending on the type of dragonias, it cannot be denied that there are individuals who eat even if that is the corpse of their companions.

"Well, if you remember it's this way... you'll be fine for now. Besides, if you can't be here tomorrow, that's the only way to find a new base or group of Dragonias."

Happy or unhappy, Ray has wiped out multiple Dragonias bases and groups just today.

For example, we will be able to find the same bases and populations of Dragonias tomorrow and imitate them in a way that will destroy them.

It is also an unmistakable fact that there were some optimistic thoughts in the lay that I could not do if I could not do so, and that I should look for some new way again.

"Grrrrrrrrrr!"

Seto, convinced by Ray's words, rings out to return to the settlement, then.

Ray nods at such a ceto, too, and crosses over to the back of a ceto who bows himself.

After a few steps of escape, Seto rushes up the sky with wings flapping.

The sky is already at sunset, and from above you can see the sight of a brightly red-stained meadow going on everywhere.

It wasn't just Ray, Seto was blinded by such a sight again… Still, he decided he couldn't stay in the sky forever and started traveling with his wings winged.

The aim is the forests where the settlements exist.

Fortunately, there's nothing to miss where the forest is if the direction of flight is right for the big mess.

Unlike rocky landmarks, forest-like beings are hard to miss.

So...... when Seto actually flew for a while, I saw the grove.

It's not a mistake.

Like for once, look at the woods.

Maybe you came to the other woods.

I didn't think so, but if Ray looked at the ground and saw that there was a settlement there, he could understand that this was where he was aiming.

(Yeah, I knew me and Seto were directional tone-deaf, that's a mistake)

Tell him so half as to tell himself, and Ray gives Seto instructions to go down to the settlement.

Seto follows such Ray's instructions immediately and descends towards the settlement.

In the settlements, mining work is still being carried out in part.

Those who were working in that way could see from above that they were working seriously.

"Hangover seems to have fallen out for now."

"Gru?"

Seto returns to Ray's grunt, but Ray sees the ground approaching by flushing it.

Hangover, too, with the understanding that if time passes without fitting, it will heal.

... Though I definitely shouldn't have gotten hung over more than that time to heal.

Either way, as the earth approaches, those who work in the settlement also notice Ray and Seto coming from the sky.

Something came from the sky, so many were wary at first and tried to intercept... but those on watch waved happily to see if they soon understood it was Ray and Seto.

(Are you happy we're back, or... did you find any clues from the mining work or the remains of the long tent?)

I want it to be the latter if I can.

With that in mind, Ray also understood that mining operations were not such an easy result.

For example, the wreckage of the tent was still more likely.

"Ever.... we're back"

"I thought you weren't coming back today, but you were fast enough. Is something wrong?

When I heard Ray was back, it was Zai who came first.

As the one leading the scout team, I guess that's what you decided you had to ask Ray about the situation a little sooner.

"Unfortunately, I'm pretty sure something happened.... In the meantime, some Dragonias groups and bases were crushed. … there were places where the commander could not be defeated because of the priority given to doing the numbers"

"It's..."

Even for Zai, it was an unexpected achievement coming out of Ray's mouth, and I can't utter any more words with surprise.

On the contrary, all those who had heard Ray's words near Zay were just amazed at Ray's results.

Normally... if you know the strength of Dragonias, you can't honestly be convinced to imitate it when you hear Ray explain it.

But the Centaurs here know the strength of Dragonias, as well as the strength of Ray and Seto.

That's what that Ray says, so it was natural to think that would not be the first time that that was a lie.

"And the biggest reason I'm back... hmm? What happened to Vihera? Anyway, I wanted to talk to Vihera."

The speckled dragonias undoubtedly interest Vihera as well.

If so, it was Ray's idea to explain it to Vihera when explaining it to Zai and the others here, and to avoid giving the same explanation twice.

"Vihera thinks it's time to come back... oh, look"

What Zai, who said so, showed was how Vihera looked refreshed.

Ray, who sees his hair slightly wet, recalls that with that said there was a river a little further from this settlement.

We settled in the woods to escape Dragonias, but we still need water.

The river is full of water bathers.

... Normally, if a beauty like Vihera is taking a bath in the water, it's not strange that someone should go peeking at it.

But for Centaur, the two-legged Vihera, watching below... is no longer seen as its overwhelming strength, but still not as an object of romance, or lust or carnal desire.

I guess that's why Vihera safely took a water bath in this situation, too.

"Oh, Ray. If you think any settlement is noisy...... are you back? Anything wrong?

"There it is. In the meantime, Vihella's not going to be happy."

"Hmm.... I don't know"

Whereas Vihera looks intrigued and turns her gaze, Ray takes out a spotted dragonias corpse from inside the mistering.

Its carcass, amputated and divided into two upper and lower parts, surprises those who take it for granted.

"This is... Yes, what the hell..."

Such a surprising voice leaked out of Asdena's mouth, which was near Zai.

Even before, I had seen it as a dragonias of silver scales and a dragonias of copper scales, but probably because I had never seen a dragonias of silver and copper speckles.

Even Zai, who has seen the dragonias of gold scales, has his eyes wide open to the speckled dragonias to reveal his surprise.

"Les, Ray... this dragonias...?

Asdena asks in such a way as fear.

Near such Asdena, Vihera looked intrigued at the body of its dragonias.

Wherever you look at it, it's obvious that it's not normal dragonias.

But in the case of Vihela, I guess it's more important how strong the hell this dragonias is......

"That dragonias is why I'm back in the evening. A new breed of dragonias I've never seen before. It's also an individual who has the ability to fly his own blood and attack ranges."

Takeshi.

The Centaurs, who were listening to Ray's explanation, blurt.

Until now, Dragonias could only attack nearby opponents, whether the normal dragonias dominated by hunger, or the dragonias of gold, silver, or copper.

When fighting Dragonias, a bow is doing a lot of good.

Of course, the kind of magic the Dolphinas use has a greater effect than a bow, but unfortunately there are very few Centaurs who can use magic.

Thus, the subject of a ranged attack is naturally a bow.

Dragonias has a strong scale, and that's what a normal arrow can't pierce.

But in fact, there are achievements such as deflecting consciousness by attacking arrows even without damage… In fact, bows also meant a lot when the Centaurs fought Dragonias.

That also means Dragonias can safely attack with a bow because he has no means of ranged attack.

But... if that dragonias had the means to attack ranged.

Imagine that, and the Centaurs had a tough look on their face.
