"Listen! I found out the secret of this settlement!

Ray's words are annoyed by the centaurs around him.

Naturally. Until now, I had no idea what was here.

That's such a thing as bad representation but just dug the area appropriately......

Even so, if they told me that the secret of this place had been revealed, I would not have been able to tell them not to be pleased with it.

Especially since all the survivors of this settlement are looking to Ray.

Even though we lived in this settlement, we didn't know what kind of place it was because we weren't like the chiefs or the neighborhoods… so-called executives.

It's our own settlement, but we don't get it... it's true that no one did anything to blame for the position being the only one, but still felt pretty embarrassed.

More than that, I would naturally like to know the secrets of this settlement if I could.

Even for someone other than from this settlement, what was that secret that we were desperate to do mining work on... I'd rather not care about that, I couldn't.

... The only thing was that the dam runs were still happy to reunite with Anastasia and it was just a matter of subtlety whether Ray's voice was being heard or not.

"Over there are Anastasia and Fana. Some of you will know, but it's who I was looking for."

Naturally, it is seen by many that the Rays have returned to the settlement, and above all the damrans have stormed towards Anastasia and Fana, so if you look at that, you will naturally find Anastasia and Fana.

"Anastasia... If you are not wearing a mask, use the magic called Spirit Magic. As its spiritual wizard, Anastasia told me that this settlement has the power of an overly powerful earthy spiritual"

Everyone looks a little nervous about what's going on around them.

Naturally. The power of the Spirit is too powerful in the place where you are… that's why Anastasia exists so much power to describe it as thick.

Maybe something will happen.

It is never a mistake to think so.

"Don't worry. The people who lived in this settlement all the time had nothing in particular either.... right?

The survivors of Ray's gazed settlement nod honestly at the words.

In fact, there was nothing unusual about living here, so I guess that's natural, too.

"Anastasia! It's time for you to come here!

To Ray's words, he cuts up the conversation with the dam runs and comes to Ray's with Fana.

"Did you explain?

"It's just a mess, though."

"Yes.... so what should I do?

"Specifically, something is buried somewhere in this settlement... I think something is buried for the reason that the power of its earthly spirits is thick, don't you see where that is?

To Ray's words, Anastasia thinks a little… Eventually, points to one place.

That's a short distance from where the Centaurs and the others were desperately mining.

"Is that it?

"Yeah. It's just... it's pretty deep down there."

"Specifically?

"I don't know that far. It's just a feeling."

To the words of Anastasia, who tells him so, Ray once again sees what's going on around him.

... A little further away, Seto, who was flying in and coming through the sky earlier than the Rays were coming back to the settlement, was alert to what was going on around him as he fell asleep.

"Right.... That's why I'm changing places to dig. I've been digging all over the place, and I think it's bad... but now I know it's there, so good luck."

Everyone nods to Ray's words and starts preparing for mining work.

Some of them didn't seem to like it very much.

After all, I guess there was something to think about that the place I had been digging for a few days was a place that meant nothing.

If we could, it would be natural for us to think so if there was something in the place we were digging.

... Still, a lot of people felt better because they could know that this time it really existed there.

"Well, I'm sorry...... me and Vihra need to talk to two people, Anastasia and Fana. I'll be gone a little bit, but if anything happens, you can come up to my tent."

"That's it!

That's what I said to Ray's words, Damran.

As a dam run, I guess I would have liked to have had a little more conversation with Anastasia and Fana if I could.

And yet, when I finally finished talking about the whole thing, Ray and Vihera would talk to Anastasia, so I couldn't do it without being dissatisfied.

Ray knew how such a dam run was, too, so he opens his mouth, before a dam run can put any more grievances into his mouth.

"I'm sorry, but me and Vihera originally came here looking for Anastasia and Fana. More than that, I want to tell you exactly what experience I've had in this meadow. I know you're thankful for Anastasia, but I need you to wait around."

When they said that, I couldn't say that even as a dam run, we couldn't force ourselves to prioritize.

In the first place, Anastasia is a benefactor to us, and I don't think we're going to do anything to get us in trouble.

Or, if this makes Anastasia reluctant to talk to Ray, it still doesn't look like that from what I've seen.

On the contrary, it even seemed like I was quite looking forward to talking to Ray.

More than that, there is no option here for me to get in the way of the story.

"I'll make time to talk to you later, so let me talk to Ray and the others now."

Not to mention that if my benefactor Anastasia told me to do this, I would not have been able to imitate it by saying no to it.

"Okay."

Damran says so, unfortunately he did, but bows his head, takes the other faces and heads toward the mining work.

You've been admired for a long time.

"... there was a lot going on."

With that said, I laugh like a rare trouble for Anastasia.

From how it went, Ray could also have predicted that there was something deeper than just saving some sort of crisis that was in the Damran settlement... but now it was also true that there was a lot to talk about before that.

"This way. If you're in a magic tent, you don't have to listen to the others, and you can take your time."

That said, Ray also takes the magic tent out of Mystering to where he built the magic tent last night and rolls it out there.

The magic tent itself doesn't surprise me, as Anastasia and Fana have also seen it many times near the lake where Ray was camped in Elgin, and have been in it.

But still, seeing the magic tent I saw in Elgin normally exists even in this world...... I'm glad you got a grin on that face.

Ray noticed that too, but I don't have any particular point there, prompting him to go inside.

"Come on in. If it's tea, I can serve it, so let's just drink it and talk about it."

It's a unique feature of a magic tent, but it's not that rare if you try it on the lay.

Because if you just boil water, that's what you can do with a bonfire, a pot and water.

Nevertheless...... if you try to make that a hassle, you'd think Ray's magic tent would be a pretty handy substitute.

In fact, Anastasia and Fana quickly boiled water in their magic tents, and when they saw them brew tea, they seemed to envy them.

... but in Ray's case, the skill of making tea is not that high.

Only to such an extent that it can be drunk for the time being, but if you try it on the fat side of your tongue, you will say it is immature.

In fact. Vihera, who often had the opportunity to drink Ara's brewed tea at the marina's house, had a subtle look on Ray's put in tea.

But such Vihera and Anastasia are different.

Anastasia and Fana have not had tea for that long either, due to the fact that they came to this world quite quickly than the Rays.

That's what I found delicious enough, even Ray's brewed tea.

"In the meantime, eat this too. I'm pretty sure it's been a lot of trouble in this world."

Seeing Anastasia and Fana drink their brewed tea looking delicious, Ray takes the dried fruit out of the mysteries.

There are other kinds of baked confectionery, but I decided it would be better this way now.

And in fact, Anastasia and Fana eat the dried fruit served by Ray looking delicious and drink tea while savoring its sweetness.

That's how long enough passes, and eventually Ray opens his mouth again where he calms down.

"So, I want you to tell me something in the woods that you didn't have time to talk about and couldn't talk about?

"Right.... but honestly, there's been a lot going on, so I don't know what to start with."

The time Anastasia and the others spent in this world has been quite long compared to the Rays.

That's why I'm really confused about what to tell you.

Ray, who guessed it, speaks of what he was concerned about for the time being.

"Just around the corner from where we came to this world is the hub of Centaur... it also absorbed the surrounding settlers scattered about Dragonias and there was a fairly large settlement, didn't you stop by that way? I stopped by your settlement first."

Precisely, you're more right that you ran into the Zays who came from that settlement.

If the Anastasias had been in first contact with Zai's settlement, that would have been why Ray would have gotten that information sooner.

But there was no trace of it, and Anastasia and the others should have headed somewhere else without coming into contact with Zai's settlement.

"That being said, there was nothing around here that went out into this world, was there?

"Well, I won't deny that. I'm not sure what to do without Zai and the others. Just candle."

"... then I don't think it would be strange if I didn't make contact with Centaur in that settlement? So I ended up traveling with Fana... and made contact with some centaur settlements."

Fana nods at Anastasia's words.

I saw how those two were doing, Ray, but even if I didn't encounter Zai's settlement and encounter another, I still end up thinking that information would be gathered in Zai's settlement.

For example, the settlement of Asdena was a settlement near the settlement of Zai, but as far as Asdena is concerned, it has not stopped there either.

"Maybe... just like the jet lag, me and the Anastasias, you get out in a different place?

"Ah..."

I guess that word of Ray was unexpected for Anastasia as well.

Surprising voices leak out of its mouth.

"Come to think of it, my time is way off when Anastasia and I came to this world. More than that, it's no wonder the place out is way off.... In the first place, that whisp felt like a half-run, so naturally that would be impossible if it were normal"

"If you ask me that... maybe so"

"Anastasia, do you know anything about that Whisp? I've been investigating that Whisp, so can I have as many clues as I can?

"Unfortunately, I don't know much about it. I know that Whisper is a special kind of thing, not normal, but unthinkable."

The words are convincing enough to convince Ray.

But at the same time, it's true that we don't know what we're going to solve.

"In the end, it's like you don't know anything."

"You know... if you're a regular whisp, you can do as much research as you want. But that whisp is special, literally? What happens if I kill you for imitating badly... and Ray doesn't know, does he?

"It's... well"

Ray also understands how special that Whisp is.

Anyway, different beings from different worlds… it is only with the power to summon creatures to matter.

If so, it will not be necessary to consider how much profit it would generate if it could be successfully controlled without mishandling it.

Given that, Ray also had to be convinced that he had to be cautious when doing Whisp research and be even more cautious on it......
