Legend

Although Ray encountered the adventurers, he was suddenly pointing his weapon at them.

Unlike before - when it was suddenly made - this forest of Trento is now home to quite a few animals and monsters.

That's why the adventurers hired to escort them have a certain amount of skill, unlike when the additions began.

If you're such an adventurer, you don't need to imitate things like forcefully setting up a weapon so far just because you naturally talk but suddenly show up.

If this were a beginner who had just become an adventurer, it would still be a naive response, as a corresponding handyman recognized by the Alliance.

"It's been a long time... I just wanted to say, what are you so hypersensitive about? Maybe even some powerful monster showed up?

"No, it's not.... maybe."

"Maybe?"

Why do you say such vague words? and Ray, who questioned it slightly, but the adventurers told him so with a serious look, not the way he was kidding.

Looking at such an adventurer, naturally, Ray also wonders what was currently happening in this Trent forest.

... Though I could somehow have predicted it, considering the fairies I encountered when I came out of the underground space.

Still, Ray couldn't have done that much of a prank if it was just the fairy he saw.

That's why I want you to be different.

With that in mind, open your mouth.

"So? What the hell happened? I don't know what kind of expression you use... strange things, do you?

"That's right!

To Ray's words, an adventurer who says so like he panicked.

That's not alone, and the other adventurers have similar thoughts, and they're turning a strong gaze toward Ray.

"At first, something like this... is our mistake that something we left behind is sometime somewhere else? There were a lot of things that I thought..."

Nodding to the words of the adventurer as others agree.

"Yes, that's what it looked like... if you realize it, it could be worse for some reason. That's why the long sword that the weapon was in the sheath became another guy's long sword."

Normally, I can't think of anything like putting my long sword in someone else's sheath.

Beyond that, it was easy for Ray to imagine that it was the work of the fairy.

… it is, again.

Beyond that long sword being your own weapon, if you say so, it's a partner who deposits his life.

It's very tough to be like that during a life-threatening battle that it becomes someone else's weapon.

"There were a lot of other things, but if you noticed, you were in a completely different place, something like that."

"Oh, you mean Zerolis. That must have surprised you. He's gone when he realizes."

When I listened to him, Ray also understood that he had suffered quite a lot.

(This is totally a fairy thing, isn't it?... It does a nasty imitation)

Just because Ray isn't around doesn't make it any more stylish if you're working because you're struggling with the harvesting of felled trees, but that's where fairy pranks and thought-disturbing behavior take place.

Some of the pranks Ray heard were that the tree he tried to carry somehow slipped and stopped piling on the carriage, thereby causing many of the slippery trees to fall on his legs and break bones.

This was true of the pranks during the Seremus Plains, but there are many things called fairy pranks that don't go out of style if you try to get hit.

If you try to be a fairy, you're probably innocent about the prank, but the damage from it is enormous.

"Whatever, I got the story.... I'm pretty sure it sounds like a lot of trouble."

"That's right.... Can you take a little tree with you anyway? I've got enough for today, but I've got enough for now."

"Okay."

If you try to ray it, it's not that hard to carry the felled trees.

If so, because it is only a matter of time before Ray carries the tree when he heads to the Guild.

Ray speaks up when he breaks up with the adventurers.

"In the meantime, I know there's something wrong with the current Trent Forest, so please be careful"

That's what I'm gonna tell Ray. You want a vihella? and gaze.

The point in that gaze is that you don't have to talk about the fairies.

But as for Ray, I was deciding whether or not it was okay to say the fairy thing as it were, it was a subtle thing.

Whatever, it's a fairy.

Even in this Elgin, almost none of them exist but have actually been discovered.

That's why I wouldn't be able to actually see fairies with my own eyes without enough luck to run into Rank A monsters and Rank S monsters.

At least one of those fairies is in this Trent forest.

... No, given the frequency and scale of the pranks I've heard from the adventurers, I don't really think the fairies are the only ones Rays have seen.

That's why there are so many others… dozens, in some cases even more than a hundred.

Thinking about it, it is also true that it is still all kinds of unsavory to inform the adventurers about the existence of fairies.

(Even so, so was the case with Dragonias, but I wonder if I can handle being tormented by a large number of opponents)

Now, if you have one fairy count, you don't need to be particularly vigilant that much.

But the problem is we don't know how many fairies there are.

(Piece... Piece. I wonder if the fairy counts, one or two or one or two.... given the damage you're doing to people, I also feel like a horse is enough. Nevertheless, even humans have bandits and such that they do harm to others)

Fairies and humans...... no, which should be discerned between subhuman and monster?

Ray also understood that it wasn't himself who thought about it, but still thought about the fairy as he proceeded through the forest of Trent... eventually, he arrived at the place where the pigeons were.

"Whoa, Ray! You're back!

One of the first crooks to notice Ray screams with joy.

Naturally. If we try them, it's hard to harvest trees and carry them to the guilds, and now the fairies are playing tricks on them.

If so, I guess I'm glad from the bottom of my heart that Ray is back to be able to solve that once and for all.

The adventurers who had Ray earlier were also delighted with Ray's return.

But I guess the joy is stronger just because the crocodiles are actually in a position to fell trees.

"Oh, I've met the adventurers over there and listened. Sounds like you had a lot of trouble.... I'll take all the trees I can't carry for now, so good luck with the logging."

Neither does Ray know how long we're going to be involved in this Trent forest.

However, once the construction of the Gilm has been completed, it will not be involved for a while. … but only the adventurers who help and escort them.

In the case of the Rays, there is a case of the Lizardmans living in and around the lake, so we really need to get involved.

(With that said, are the Lizardmans pranking you by fairies too?

Second, I hold that thought.

The place with the Birth Tower where the Lizardmans live is just outside the Trent Forest, but not exactly in the Trent Forest, outside.

More than that, Ray doesn't know if he's in the midst of a fairy prank.

Most of all, the perception that the fairy prank itself is only taking place in the Trent woods is just what Ray thinks on his own.

"Well, trees, please!

While Ray thinks about Lizardman, he joyfully takes his escort adventurer to logging when he says so.

I guess the motivation of the jaws was lit by the fact that I didn't have to worry about transporting the felled trees.

"You like people."

That's what I said to Ray, not Vihera...... but Anastasia.

"Really? Either way, if I go back and help with the construction, it will be my job to carry the felled trees. Then you don't have a problem with imitating carrying trees while you're at it.... I use mystering for that, so it's easy to do. You're the guy before breakfast.... before lunch, to be exact."

We had breakfast in Zai's settlement, and then we came back to this Elgin.

It's still a little early for lunch time, but that's why Ray's saying before lunch is never wrong.

"Before lunch.... Well, that's fine. Let's get to Gilm quickly. I have to decide what to do with the fairy thing. If there's a fairy in this Trento forest, it could be dangerous to harvest as many trees as ever."

"Really? This Trent forest tree is set to grow again soon by the Greens. I don't think you need to worry about it that much.... In the first place, there are problems with whether fairies care about nature or not. Whatever the elves are."

If you're an elf, it's not strange to live in the woods because you prefer nature, but fairies and elves are different...... and yes Ray thinks so.

Though maybe that's just what Ray thinks, and it's actually different.

"But a fairy?

For Anastasia, whose curiosity about the unknown being is exuberant, I guess that word alone solves everything.

But the fairy thing is huge if we try to ray it with hatred - in a different way than Anastasia - but the trees growing in the Trento forest are essential as ingredients for the construction of the Guild's additions.

Beyond that, I don't have the idea of stopping logging trees, even if I take any action about fairies.

"We need Trent Wood trees to build the Gilm. Under the circumstances, there's no way we're going to stop building additions, is there?

"It's..."

To Ray's words, Anastasia wants to argue but can't say anything.

In fact, the construction work currently under way in Gilm is already in its second year and is scheduled to continue for several years to come.

It is fully understandable whether or not such additional construction can be stopped, no matter how much curiosity is given the highest priority Anastasia.

It's true that Dusker feels deeply beneficial to Anastasia, but that's why I didn't think I'd abandon my position as Lords of the Guild and ask for that favor.

I guess it's only natural that Dusker has quite a bit of experience as a lord around here.

Nor could I accept as a dusker the method of not having to use the Trent forest tree......

One of the major reasons why Dusker decided to build more is because it is a tree that can be harvested in this Trento forest.

Alternatively, it was also conceived that if Trento forest trees were ordinary trees, in the worst case, they would buy materials for architecture from merchants.

Many merchants are gathering in the current guilds to make money from additional construction work… or otherwise to buy some kind of merchandise in the only city guilds on the periphery.

Asking such merchants would cost a lot, but they could also imitate buying wood as building materials.

In fact, because many of the merchants bring and sell building materials to the guilds, starting with bricks.

In that case, it would exceed the initial budget, but it would not be impossible to purchase wood.

But... that's only a story if the trees that can be harvested in Trento Forest are normal trees.

Trees currently felled in the Trento Forest have been successfully treated by alchemists in the Guild to give them a strong resistance to magic.

It was also enhanced to such an extent as not to be comparable to normal trees in terms of its durability as a building material.

Of course, it is not impossible to do the same treatment even for ordinary trees.

But...... still, it wouldn't end up like a Trent forest tree.

Trent forest trees are of a variety of special properties, because their nature means a great deal to alchemists in their processing.

"For that reason, I don't think Dusker has the choice not to use this Trent Forest tree for building materials."

Although Anastasia gives a disgruntled look to Ray's words, which she concludes so, she does not speak of it.

I guess because Ray's words were all that convincing.

(Well, with the help of the Greens, maybe we have the option of cutting only trees within a certain range... shouldn't I tell you now? I don't care if they run wild.)

That's what Ray thought, and he started to act in order to mystify the massive amount of felled trees he could see.
