Legend

The day after there was one thing about the anterm...... naturally, Ray went to bed.

Nevertheless, after about five minutes of waking up and falling asleep, and finally returning to me to check the position of the sun through the window, I am not particularly upset.

In the end, it was brightening time that I fell asleep, so I decided to go to sleep today.

Sleeping with the intention of waking up early in the morning and sleeping with the intention of sleeping from the beginning reacts differently when you naturally wake up.

"Uh... it's only before eleven in the morning"

When I take my pocket watch out of the mistering and check the time, I look out the window.

There was a rare sight of Vihera eating alone there.

"You got up earlier than I expected. More than that, what happened to Bühne?

While seeing how Vihera is doing and questioning her like that, Ray checks up on herself and then leaves the room.

That's how I tried to get out into the courtyard, when I went into the living room...

"... Oops?

"Mm?"

Inside the living room, there was a figure of someone Ray had never even seen.

Nevertheless, I'm pretty sure he's no more malicious than he was able to get inside the marina's house.

"Are you... a deep red ray"

The man, in his forties or so, looks at Ray and asks.

Ray also snorts honestly because words have no match for hostility.

"Oh. So..."

"Me? I'm Gradle Shaggia. He's the Lord's brother in the Viscount Shaggia family."

When they say Viscount Shaggia, Ray doesn't know.

But I can still predict what I'm doing here... and find out that Ray's predictions are coming in the next moment.

"Sorry, Lord Gradle, wait...... Ray?

Elaine, who came into the living room with Ara, is surprised to see Ray.

Because I've never seen the sight of myself seeing a nobleman before, it looks delicately odorous.

"Oh, I just woke up.... Never mind me, do your job. I'll be on my way to work as soon as I eat in the courtyard."

"Ugh, um.... well, be careful."

Did it also smell like greeting Ray in front of Gradle, Elaine tells him so by blushing her thin cheeks?

I thought I'd tease Ray a little about how Elaine was doing, but if we were just ourselves, we'd still decide that we shouldn't imitate like that more than there are others, and we'd go straight to the courtyard.

Gradle looks intrigued to see Ray not showing any particular concern for herself.

Normally, we can't imitate that we don't care about people in noble blood.

Even less, Gradle has never seen such an opponent.

No, if it meant trying to make you seem ostensibly naughty, I've been acted upon like that, but in Ray's case, he was showing things like he wasn't really into himself.

"Is he deep red? I've heard rumors... I see, that's a masterpiece. Even if one of the aristocrats only has a high temper, it will only be ruined."

"Mm-hmm. If it was Lord Gradle, I thought you could say that. But there are a lot of people who don't understand it."

Elaine's words were well understood by Gradle as well.

The aristocracy to which I belong… to which my parents belong precisely, even if it does not extend to the kings of the largest factions, has a correspondingly high number of aristocracies.

But there are many such aristocrats who are pointlessly prized, or who are incompetent in person but therefore value only blood muscles...

If we try to be such people, we will not deal with ourselves at all... on the contrary, we will never be able to forgive the existence of Ray for not even acknowledging his value.

(Well, what Marina told me this morning... I wonder what will happen)

Unlike Ray, Elaine woke up at the usual time, even though she slept after it got bright.

By that time, the marina had already returned.

Unlike Elaine, it seemed like she'd been up all night.

Ara was also still asleep, and Elaine talked a little with Marina and just the two of us.

If you try Elaine, I asked her around last night wondering why she didn't come back with Ray or Vihera... and that's what she asked me about Ray's promotion.

Nevertheless, Elaine didn't surprise herself either, as she knows Ray's strength.

In the first place, because it's more unnatural for a being as strong as Ray to be a Rank B Adventurer forever.

Nevertheless, given Ray's character, it was understandable that the promotion itself, whatever it entailed… specifically, that it would not be interesting to have more opportunities to deal with aristocracy.

Still, Marina wanted me to leave it to herself, and that's what I said, so in the end I decided not to take care of the matter...

That was the question of how the hell Marina would convince Ray.

"Go ahead."

When Elaine thinks, Arla puts tea in front of Elaine and Gradle, respectively.

Elaine, who returned to me in those words, turns a grateful gaze to Ara.

Only Ara, who is always with Elaine, must have known Elaine was obsessed with the thought.

That's why Elaine turned her gaze of gratitude to Ara for helping her focus on the work in front of her.

"Oh, good morning. I was expecting it, but it's a lot slower."

Seeing Ray out in the courtyard, that's what Vihera, who was eating breakfast, tells him.

"No, if you're going to say that, isn't Vihella slow enough? You got a good day at work?

"Yeah, there was something about yesterday, and I'm gonna take it slow today. Beune went to work alone, though."

Ray is surprised by the words of Vihera.

Büne was asleep last night while we were awake and doing a lot of work.

In that sense, Bühne is not strange to wake up as usual.

But it was honestly a surprise to Ray that he went to work alone in such a situation.

Most importantly, while Vihera was in the world of Centaur, Bühne was also working alone.

Given the circumstances around it, maybe this one isn't that strange.

(As it turns out, you feel that a sense of independence was born in Bühne in one of the other worlds...?

If you try it on Ray, it is both a pleasure and a loneliness.

Somehow, it would be a sign that Ray also adored Beaune.

"So is Vihera taking her time?... So, what happened to the marina?

"Yeah, the marina would've come back in the morning, and then we'd have a little rest and gone to work. Like me, I guess I couldn't imitate taking a break."

"I guess in the case of the marina"

In the case of Vihela, it is instead that there are as many who look around the guilds.

But in the case of marinas who work in clinics, there are not so many people who can use restorative magic using spiritual magic... on the contrary, it's probably just marinas in the guilds.

That makes it quite difficult to treat an injured person if Marina does something like rest.

... In some cases, the absence of marinas did not allow them to recover and could even increase the number of dead.

Given Marina's character, such a thing would be unacceptable.

It was also possible that when the clinic was in such a situation, the people who were working would not be able to work actively.

"Few people can use healing magic.... other than marinas, they recover using potions and medications, so it's not like the injured person will be fully healed soon."

"... that's normal."

Injuries don't heal that easily if you're normal.

I needed to patiently wait for the pain to heal completely.

(Given that, healing magic is against the rule, after all. Well, the potion kind is approximate)

Unlike herbivores, potions can also heal wounds if they are sprinkled on the wound, and taste so bad that temporarily the taste is destroyed, but you can still expect a lasting therapeutic effect if you drink them.

That was definitely so special that if a potion kind existed in Japan, it would definitely be a fuss.

... If that's what you mean, Ray's presence was an unthinkable substitute in Japan.

"I understand the marina thing. So, what's Vihera gonna do today? If you're not going to work, are you taking your time at home?

"Right. I wasn't sure what to do. I've been wanting to look around a lot...... what's Ray gonna do? Why don't you come and look around with me? There's a lot of people in there right now, so it's not as fun as it used to be, right?

"No, I know that... Vihera used to look around Gilm every day, didn't she? So you're tired of seeing new scenery like that?

"I don't know. Looking around at work and going to play makes a lot of difference. Try to be careful if there are any anomalies, or look around in the mood to play."

"Is that what this is all about?... Whatever, I still have work to do today, so I can't go out with Vihera."

Ray is also an indispensable force in building additions, if not marinas.

Without Ray, it would also be a struggle to carry the trees felled in the Trento woods.

Most importantly, there was a Nielsen left in the Trento forest last night because he was worried about other people and places to live.

I'm promising to pick up that Nielsen today - made, more rightly so - and that, if I hadn't picked up Nielsen here, that would have been enough to make it tasteless.

... That's like Nielsen not waiting for Ray to come and come to Gilm on his own.

It's not hard to predict that if you find yourself in such a situation, it will be a tremendous commotion.

If so, there was no doubt that Ray still needed to pick him up in the Trent Forest.

"Yeah. So shall I go, too?

"I don't mind that, but shouldn't we take it slow today?

"Oh, you don't like me going with you?

"That's not the point. It's just yesterday today... and it's true that I would like you to stay home if you could."

There's basically no way that anyone would break into this house more than the anterm got caught.

If you come, your opponent should never be strong enough to break through Marina's Spirit Magic defense.

Still, I couldn't be more relieved than there was about the anterm.

Did Vihera also find out what Ray was trying to say, and turn her gaze toward Marina's house?

"I have Elaine and Arla, so I don't think I have to worry about that area."

Elaine has top notch strength in the Guild as well.

Although Ara didn't extend to Elaine either, she still had the strength just faster to count from above.

Also, the Yellow currently running and playing with Seto in the courtyard is highly capable in terms of defense and reconnaissance, although not highly offensive.

With that in mind, no one would normally attack this house.

Most importantly, from what Ray saw, it didn't look like Anterm had company.

If so, you won't have to worry about those who attack you like Anthelm's.

"Still just in case.... What do you say? Can I ask you something? Of course, I'm not saying I can't."

To Ray, who asks so, Vihera gives a little thought and then nods.

"Right. All right. Maybe... really maybe, but there's an enemy coming. If you think about it, you should wait here."

He seemed slightly dissatisfied, but Vihera nodded at Ray's words.

If the enemy really comes, try to fight for yourself.

Vihera answers with that in mind.

That's not what I thought with determination, and that's what I thought, unless you expect it to be, too.

If you're normal, why would you want to fight so hard? And it's not strange to wonder, but for some reason I've been with Vihera for quite a while, and if I try to lay it deeper, I nod without looking particularly concerned.

"Then please.... Next time I find a request that looks like there's going to be some kind of battle, I'm coming with you."

Ray said the following words and went to get Seto for once the enemy didn't come - that's more likely.
