Legend

2,480 words.

Time returns, and after Ray flies out of the courtyard of the Marina's house aboard Seto, the Marina quickly goes into action.

"Are you all here?

Elaine and the others naturally appear in such marina language.

If Ray had just been woken up by Nielsen, it wouldn't have happened so far or anything like that.

But if Ray flew out of the courtyard aboard Seto, there's no way those in the house would have noticed such a commotion.

An atmosphere that should also be called a struggle emanating from Ray.

There is no one in this house who would not wake up with it.

That's why even Buune, who falls asleep relatively quickly, was awake because he's usually never strong at night.

It was obvious that Ray was not looking very well but not normal.

"Um. So? What exactly happened?

It was Elaine who opened her mouth on behalf of me.

From the present situation, no matter what the hell... that's what I'm just saying when I decide it's not strange to have a bunch of monsters attacking Gilm and I can deal with whatever happens.

Vihera is Vihera, and I look forward to fighting the mighty, wondering if maybe even the mighty enemies Ray rushes out to attack.

"One first. It wasn't here that the problem arose, it was Trent Forest. There's nothing particularly unusual about Gilm."

To the words, Elaine shows relief and Vihera looks sorry.

Marina continues her words as she sees both extreme reactions.

"I hear something happened at the fairy's residence in the Trent Forest. Probably found by poachers or something."

"Not many people know about fairies, do they?

"Right. But I guess I didn't sneak into the Trent woods trying to find anything else. It forbids Dusker from approaching the Trent Forest without permission for any reason. Then you can predict that whoever it is has something there, can't you?... In fact, there's a lot going on."

Yes, the Trento Forest today is often very, but publicly impossible with birth towers, lakes, underground spaces leading to different worlds, and fairies.

I would say that trouble is gathering in one place......

It wasn't strange to have someone sneaking into such a place alone, maybe some treasure.

I don't know any more than I haven't heard the circumstances.

But still, the fact that Ray was showing how stuck with his feathers that far was definitely something that must have happened.

... Nielsen had told Ray that someone was looking for a fairy settlement, but unfortunately it was just after that that that Marina arrived in Ray's room and had not heard the circumstances.

"Anyway, it's only natural to rush Ray to the Trent Forest... and perhaps beyond what is likely to have happened in fairy relations. But it's also true that if you imitate like that without permission, you'll be punished.... That's why I'm going to the Lords' Hall from now on, but what do we all do?

Yes, if Marina asks, it's Vihera who said she'd go first.

There may be more formidable enemies in the Trento Forest than we know what's going on.

If so, it is because we decided that we want to get that information a little faster and increase the possibility that we can fight strong enemies at all.

"I'm going.... Beaune, go to sleep."

"... mmm..."

Usually, Biune wanted to go with Vihera where she was going, but she was still under a strong drowsiness because she woke up sleeping.

Sleepiness may also subside somewhat after a little more time, but sleepiness is now an overwhelming advantage.

Also, even if drowsiness subsides, that's just what I think, and it's hard to show just the same ability as during the day.

Does Bühne know that, too, honestly obeys Vihella's words?

"Yes, Vihera is going. What about Elaine and Arla?

"Unfortunately, I cannot go with you more than I am here as a representative of the aristocracy. If this is to be known later, it could be a nuisance to Lord Dusker."

Elaine tells that unfortunately.

I would like to go myself if I could, more than it is about the man Elaine loves too.

But even if I push myself into the Lords' Hall in the present circumstances, it is a particularly pointless act.

Also, there are other reasons why Elaine decided to stay in Marina's house this way.

"Besides, was it an anterm? I don't suppose the possibility of that man attacking us has disappeared? If so, we need to be prepared for when someone has to stay."

In fact, Anterm is the one looking for fairies in the Trent Forest, but there's no way that the Anterms won't think about the possibility of attacking us now more than Elaine and the others can't know what's going on around there.

Somehow, it's like killing all the people who were at Count Zorguela's mansion.

There was an absolute need for those who would defend the marina house inhabited by Seto, which Anterm was after, more than such a presence was yet to be caught.

That's why Elaine told Marina that she would stay here in the current situation.

"Right. I'm glad I have someone here to protect me, too. Well, I'll do you a favor.... Vihella, let's go."

"Yeah. Well, I wonder what the hell happened"

Marina and Vihera left the house quickly, saying so.

"... So, what the hell are you doing at midnight like this?

Rooms in the Lords' Hall.

So, Dusker was meeting with two Marinas and Vihera.

Naturally, it's not so easy to come to the Lords' Hall all of a sudden at midnight like this and tell Dusker to let me see him.

That's not surprising that he was captured because he was supposed to be a suspicious guy... the guy who was a gatekeeper knew the story of Marina being a former guild master, and besides that, he heard from his senior that Marina had known Dusker since he was a kid and he had been with him for a long time.

Because of that, he was found suspicious and caught, and there was nothing like being put in jail.

... Still, I needed the right amount of time to actually meet with Dusker like this.

"Right. I didn't come to see Dusker in the middle of the night for nothing either. Let me be frank with you. I don't know if you've heard from me, but I put Ray on Ceto and let him fly out of my house yard and out of the gilm."

Even so, Dusker doesn't look particularly surprised.

Think a little like indulging in the marina's words and gaze at Vihera sitting next to the marina.

Whatever the content of the Marina story, I guess I wondered why Vihera came to tell such a story.

Most importantly, I guess the expression Vihella's identity - is not correct - would not have been purposefully imitated, such as listening to it, had I made it a known dusker.

What I said instead was something else.

"Right. I heard about something flying out of the gilm... was it Seto"

"Oh, I knew you'd already been contacted."

It was a marina that looked amazing in words, but the expression looked natural with that much contact.

In fact, a lot of people are moving around outside even at night in the sense of searching for an anterm today.

It is no surprise that some have noticed the appearance of Seto flying in the sky than there are many of them.

"Oh, they woke me up about that."

"You didn't wake us up. Then I'm relieved."

"... so? Why did you do that? You know enough at the marina that you shouldn't imitate that?

With that said, there's no way to blame Dusker for the marina.

I guess that's why Marina would allow that to happen, because she thinks there was some reason she had to do that.

Dusker also knows Marina's character, more than she's been dating since she was a kid.

It doesn't make any sense, I didn't think I would imitate Ray in the middle of the night on Ceto and out of the walls, not through the gates... etc.

Marina also nods at such Dusker's words and mouths the circumstances that made Ray imitate such.

"Hi, I think we've got a problem in the Trent Forest. And Nielsen and the others, in fairy relations."

"... what?

To Marina's words, Dusker returns in a low voice.

For Dusker, fairies, starting with Nielsen, mean a lot.

That's the one person who could become all sorts of eye-catching after the construction of the Gilm is finished.

Even without it, there is also the possibility that you can get magic items made by fairies.

Given those reasons, the race of fairies is troublesome because of pranks, but they were definitely still there to protect.

"Who would imitate that?... or how did Nielsen figure that out?

"Sounds like a magic item."

If you say so, Dusker was honestly convinced, too.

The magic items made by fairies are very effective.

Because I know that, and Dusker also manages to get it on a regular basis and think about things like selling it in guilds.

"Right.... Ok. Let's admit this case as a special case. If the fairy is dangerous, I can only thank Ray for going to help me."

"I thought Dusker would say that."

Vihera opens her mouth to the words of the marina, who was listening next to her to see if she cared.

"If you said you were going to punish Ray, what happened?

"Right. In the meantime, about Potion's tear incident..."

"I won't tell you! I won't tell you, so don't say any more!

That's what Dusker says instantly and forcefully blocks Marina's words along the way.

Never let me tell you beyond that, that's the form I showed in my attitude.

Such an attitude would unnecessarily attract Vihella's interest… Dusker opens his mouth towards the marina without even noticing what such a Vihella looks like.

"You were supposed to never say anything about that, weren't you? Why are you trying to say that so lightly?"

"Oh, it's nothing light, is it? It's Ray's business."

That's all that matters is the presence of Ray, I guess that's what you're saying... make it a dusker, and that's not an acceptable issue.

"You, don't say anything about that. Don't ever say that."

If Ray were here, I would remember him in Japan, and this is a gesture? That's what I would have thought.

That's all, Dusker's words were outspoken.

(That's why I don't think it's possible to tell you not to attract interest.... Well, shall I leave it around to make fun of Dusker? Vihella's interest will have to be shifted in a different direction, too)

To be honest, it was a marina I thought it would be interesting to interact with Dusker a little more, but now I thought I would be better off doing something about the Trent Forest than that...... and clearing up the doubts that Vihera had come with me.

"So, about the Trent Forest at heart... is there any information on it? Ray and Seto's intel is getting in that fast, so there's a lot of intel in there about one thing in the Trent Forest, isn't there?

For the time being, I was a relieved dusker when I decided I wouldn't be talking about my black history any more, but I shook my neck sideways at the marina's words.

"Don't be impotent. In the first place, I could see Seto's case because there were guards and my men out there looking for Anterm. Trent Forest is… it's hard to get information in this situation right now, no matter what the day"

It's pretty dangerous to get out of the Guild on a side night.

There is naturally not so many who can do such things.

... Not many adventurers want to go outside the guilds at night.

That's the periphery, but we don't know what kind of monsters will attack us.

In some cases, that's why it's not strange for a Rank A monster to appear unexpectedly on the edge.

"It's just... if anyone makes that kind of noise in this situation right now, I have one idea. If that were a hit, it would be a pain in the ass… I think it would be a real pain in the ass."

"Anterm..."

Dusker snorted silently at the marina's words.
