Legend

2488 words

Instead of entering the Trento woods and storing the trees that the Trento had felled and heading to where Nielsen was... it was the underground space in the middle of the Trento woods that Ray headed.

When you bring Nielsen into this underground space, there are definitely a lot of problems.

That's what goes to the other world.

In some cases, it can be something like running into a grimm as a result of several coincidences.

If so, that's what I thought I should see Grimm before I pick up Nielsen.

(Though, if you try anastasia, why did I come? And it wouldn't be strange to wonder. I knew I was here to ask how much Whisp research went on, or should I say it that way?

Ray thinks as he walks through the narrow passage that leads to the underground space.

It should be noted, naturally, that the current seto waited on the ground.

The two deer, which Anastasia and Fana make more of a vehicle than a submissive......, were no longer there when Ray and Seto arrived at this place because they perceived Seto coming in a wild inquiry.

Trent Forest is getting quite a few more monsters, unlike before, so there's a chance that such monsters will attack us, but the two deer have a lot of fighting power, even if they're not monsters.

That's why he belonged to a herd of deer that survived the battle against Dragonias.

If it's about a monster around it, it's not strange to imitate things like kicking and killing with tough legs or poking and killing with horns.

... Even for such deer, I guess the existence of Seto is only a threat.

In fact, Seto was overwhelmed with feelings like a touch of armor sleeves against Dragonias, where a herd of deer were struggling.

(Against me, I'm not that scared... because it's the same race as Anastasia or Fana?

Regardless of the species of Fana wearing a mask to be exact, Anastasia is an elf.

For Ray, it would even be more subtle if he were human than he was a body made of Zeppael's monolithic technology.

In that sense, the race of Ray and Anastasia is different... from a deer's point of view, I guess both Ray and Anastasia are together because of their proximity to humans.

"Seto doesn't look the same."

Ray and Anastasia have different details, but they're still human shapes.

In comparison, the appearance is too different in Ray and Anastasia and Seto.

"I can see you now."

As I was going through the narrow passage thinking about it, I eventually saw the light.

I finally arrived in the underground space, so I checked what was going on inside...

"Ray? What's going on?

Anastasia, who was running some kind of experiment on the table, asks me if I noticed how Ray was doing.

It should be noted that Fana was picking something up on the ground near where Whisp was.

(That's not what the Grimm uses, is it?

Ray opens his mouth toward Anastasia, even as he thinks about that to Fana's condition.

"I was wondering how far one Whisp case went.... Looks like you haven't made much progress yet"

In Ray's words, Anastasia gives an uninteresting look.

Seeing that, it was clear that the research was not going well.

"Yeah, bad. Looks like the research hasn't progressed much yet."

"That's right."

Short, that's all I'm gonna say.

If you try anastasia, you will regret being entrusted with research and no results.

Not to mention because the subject of this study was even imitating things like summoning various objects and people from different worlds or, on the contrary, connecting them to this world.

It is very regrettable for Anastasia that she is such an interesting opponent but has no research results.

Besides, Anastasia has a point.

We can't do more daring tests than whisps in underground space are very rare.

Such imitation could also cause the worst Whisp to die.

There is no way we can do more daring investigations than to be very rare.

"Uh... yeah. Then try harder for now. 'Cause I'm gonna look around the cave like I did before."

The purpose of Ray is also to hear the progress of Whisp's research, but more than that, to come into contact with Grimm.

More than that, I wasn't expecting that much from Whisp's research.

"Yeah. I'll tell you what, don't give Whisper a weird little twitch, okay?

"I know. I'll be careful."

When I told her that, Anastasia went back to her research to see if she was convinced.

Seeing it, Ray looks around the cave as he tries to stay away from Anastasia.

When you move to a place where no one is around you, you open your mouth so that it doesn't sound like anastasia or fana.

"Grimm, are you listening to me?

"Mm-hmm. Looks like it was a long time ago. I thought you said you were coming yesterday.

When Ray calls, the voice comes right into his ear.

Obviously, I'm sensing that Ray came into this underground space, and I guess he was waiting to speak up.

"I'm sorry. I had a little problem with the guild. I've already solved that, but I've been busy with a lot of things."

'Right. I don't care if Ray's okay. That's how he showed up in front of me. "

"No, I don't think it was before."

After a little exchange like that, Ray gets to the point quickly.

"So what happened to the experimenter?

'Right. If you don't have a problem with it for now, you may think so. Currently developing magic items to secure this space. "

"... that's fast. No, that helps."

'Mm-hmm? Oh, you must have misled me. It's not true that it's being developed, but it's only a prototype that we're currently developing. Now we'll see how it goes, and if there doesn't seem to be a problem, we'll make a decent magic item.'

Ray is also convinced by Grimm's words.

A magic item made for the first time with materials from different worlds.

Beyond that, we need to see if it works well and see how long it lasts.

For example, it was also convincing to Ray that the first thing to make was a prototype.

"When that happens, how long can a real one, not a prototype?

'Well, I don't know what to do. I don't know how the prototype is... I can't tell you anything about the area until I make sure of it.'

"So... should I not come here for a while longer? If you come here like every day, Anastasia will suspect you."

'Right. I'll try to make a magic item for the prototype, and then when I see what I can do to improve it, I'll be in touch with you in a pair of orbs.'

"Please, if you get it, I'll come back here next time."

"Um, look forward to it."

Slightly proud of Grimm's words.

That's all, I guess I'm confident in making a magic item.

Words because even if it is materials from different worlds to use, this time we are deciding that we can do something about it.

If you try it on Ray, I can rely so much on Grimm's words that I'm not dissatisfied.

"Well, I'll take care of it, 'cause it's time for me to go to the fairy."

Tell him so, and when Ray leaves where he was talking to Grimm, he appropriately looks around the underground space or returns to where Anastasia is.

"Especially if you haven't found anything like this."

"That's right. I'd be surprised if they discovered something like that."

Anastasia in research comes naturally,

In fact, if you try to be an anastasia doing Whisp research, and you can get something like some kind of tip so easily, it's not surprising to argue that your research is progressing more.

"Right. Well, that includes my mood swings, so you don't have to worry about that much.... Oh, and the Gilm is all kinds of noisy right now. Given Anastasia's personality, I don't think she'll come all the way to Gilm, but if she's coming, you should be careful."

"Noisy? Aside from the construction of the addition?

You felt something in Ray's words, Anastasia stops the hand of writing the report.

I guess for Anastasia, it wouldn't be more interesting to be interrupted in the investigation than if something had happened.

Ray can predict that much, too.

"There was a little commotion in the gilm. I've already solved that, but with the effect of one of those things, it can be noisy again."

"Isn't that because of Ray?

Ray, who is pointed at the gaze of suspicion, softly misses his gaze.

It was Anterm who caused the disturbance, but it is an undeniable fact that I was the one who caused the disturbance.

More than that, if Ray told me if it was the cause, it would have hurt to be completely undeniable.

Seeing how Ray is like that, Anastasia still whines small.

If you try anastasia, a person named Ray has the talent to attract disturbances...... no, in this case it should be called nature or have something like that.

So I could honestly convince myself if Ray told me it was the cause even if I listened to him now.

If Ray was the cause, he would have felt something uninteresting about how Anastasia was doing.

"Whatever. It's about Anastasia, so I don't think there's anything like going all the way to the guild... Hmm? Wait a minute. You, you really didn't know about Gilm? I don't think it's strange to hear information about the area in the camp."

In the camp, naturally, those instructed by Dusker carry supplies starting with food, as they do every day.

More than that, of course, but whoever carries it departs from the Guild.

I mean, what happened in Gilm...... knowing one thing about the Count Zorguela family is not strange.

And if I knew, I would naturally tell the adventurers in the camp, and if I heard that, the matter would be a big topic in the camp.

"Camp? That said, you were making a scene.... I don't know because I was in the tent."

"Uh... yeah. Right. Would Anastasia do that?"

Sure enough, some of the adventurers in the camp liked Anastasia.

That's what I thought, Ray, but as far as Anastasia is concerned, I decide that I can think of no particular progress.

"What?"

"No, it's nothing. Anastasia needs to work hard on it. I don't think you have to be that interested in the Gilm thing."

That's what I said, Ray, but I ask Ray in a strange way if that word has attracted Anastasia's interest.

"That's what makes you wonder. What happened to you?

"Then give me something to ask in the camp.... Well, okay. There's been a murder in the aristocratic district of Gilm."

"Murder? That's not so uncommon, is it?

The words of Anastasia are by no means daunting.

Many adventurers in the peripheral guilds are careless.

There are quite a few things like fighting and killing people as a result of those people getting drunk.

It's not strange that an adventurer who usually deals with monsters on the edge gets drunk and forgets to beat each other up, so he kills them.

Also, it's not uncommon for people to die even more in cases of slum street relations.

Still, I guess the problem got bigger this way because it's an aristocratic neighborhood.

'Cause it's a problem in the aristocracy.'

"Oh, I see"

Anastasia nods as convinced by Ray's words.

If you try anastasia, it's that you're a researcher that matters the most, and I guess you're not very interested in anything else.

Of course, it doesn't mean I'm not entirely interested.

It also has to do with the neighborhood that I actually came to see Dusker.

"Whatever, the killer of that one was caught and cleaned up. It's true that we cleaned it up, but still some people are pretty nervous just because there was such a case. If you want to go somewhere like that, I won't stop you.

I don't want to go.

Anastasia to tell you softly.

If I try to be a pure researcher anastasia, I am satisfied enough that I can do Whisp research here.

The place to sleep is not in trouble either because of the camp on the side of the lake.

Sometimes monsters come out on the way out, but Anastasia can use spiritual magic, and deer are so strong that they don't seem like wildlife.

That's why Anastasia was never interested in Gilm's situation.
