The day after I told my buddies that Ray would take the Rank A promotion exam...... Ray's appearance was still in the Trent Forest.
I also came here today to transport trees that have been felled as usual... not translated, Ray is on his way to a fairy residence.
There are naturally more Nielsen figures besides Ray and Seto than heading to the fairy's residence.
Speaking of why Ray is headed to the fairy's residence...
"Is that a magic item made by a fairy? Looking forward to seeing what you can get."
In a good mood, Ray mutters as he looks at the Trent Forest trees.
Yes, I heard from Nielsen a long time ago this morning.
I'll give Ray a magic item for solving this one, so I can bring him to an address in the Trent Forest today, he said.
"Right. I'm just wondering what kind of magic item the chief chose. For once, I told you what kind of magic item Ray prefers, so I don't think there's anything like giving him a round off magic item."
"If that's the case, I'd be happy to, too. It doesn't make sense to get a magic item that's only an ornament."
"If so, weapons or something?
"And weapons..."
Show Nielsen's words a little trouble.
The weapons Ray currently uses are Death Size and Dusk Spears.
Both are long objects, normally only one can use them, but in Ray's case they establish the style of combat as a two-spear stream that uses both the body created by the Zeppyr faction and the sense of combat that he possesses at once.
It would also be great to be able to imitate such things as not making Ray and Seto feel weighted in their death-size abilities.
Either way, I don't need any more weapons to use for full-scale combat than I only have two Ray arms.
Although there is also a magic item in the belt that produces a quickly disappearing nebula eye as a weapon to be used in the event of a rash, there is no dissatisfaction in the eyes of this nebula.
There may be many other spears in the mysteries as weapons for once, but they are basically disposables for throwing.
"Right. I knew the weapon was on time, so I wanted magic items like regular requests and stuff."
"Specifically?
"Magic tents, running water daggers, and kilns. It's a pretty useful magic item when you're acting on a request."
Whatever the magic item and the running water dagger, the kiln is frequently used in regular meals as well.
So, Nielsen also somehow understood what Ray was trying to say.
"When that happens... um, I don't know. There are a few of them, but they're all things that we need to live with."
The fairies definitely need magic items to live on.
For example, if there was a magic item that Ray wanted, it was likely something the fairies would need to live in.
"I'd rather have a magic item or something that automatically serves the dish."
"I don't have that, and I won't give it to you if I do."
Immediately...... that's what Nielsen says without a moment of hesitation.
Ray also expected that there would be no such magic item.
In the first place, if there was such a magic item, Nielsen wouldn't have been as obsessed with food as if it were a guild.
"I guess. I thought so, too. And then... like a magic item that produces metal?
Ray doesn't need metal in particular, but if he can freely produce metal, there are many ways to take advantage of it.
You'll also be able to imitate things like enhancing your buddy's magic items.
"You don't have that. In the first place, we can prepare our own metal for what we use."
"... that would be awesome"
Ray's imaginatively, Dwarf still comes to mind first when it comes to those who are good at using metal.
Even less, it doesn't seem like a fairy is good at handling metal.
(How are you getting the metal? You know, mining mines?... not very, but you don't look great)
Ray thought of sights that seemed to be located in the opposite direction from images such as fairies.
But the imagination could never have been more wrong than that of being a fairy and never being able to mine.
Only if there's no other way to get the metal than mining.
"When that happens, I figured out what kind of magic item it is... since I actually met the chief. By the way, what kind of character is a fairy head? If I treat you badly, do you ever get upset or anything like that?
If this were aristocracy, you wouldn't basically have to worry so much about it.
But it's the fairy chief I see this time.
... At the very least salvation would be not so much the head of a species called the fairy, but only the head among the fairies in this Trent forest.
The chiefs Ray had previously met were not heads of a species called fairies, just like this one, but rather heads of settlements to which the fairies who were causing problems on the Seremouth Plains belonged.
If that were the case, I would also decide that I would not need to think so much about courtesy.
(Nevertheless, so is the case with the promotion exam, which suddenly involved a lot of courtesy.... No, it would be better if you had trouble wrapping it up, rather than putting aside time later and then being asked to be polite again)
Though I think so, the courtesy required is completely different from a promotion exam and meeting a fairy head.
The promotion exam requires human courtesy… primarily towards nobility, but with the head of the fairy, Ray is the thankful side in the sense that he helped the fairies out of the antelm.
... it's like the fairies got all Ray in a way if you think Anterm came to Trent Forest as a result of rubbing with Ray.
(Because I actually get magic items from the head of the fairy... I wonder)
That's what I think, shouldn't Ray get paid by the fairy head? And I think for a moment.
Of course, if you shut up about it and get a magic item, there won't be anything like someone blaming you.
But then, if Ray can convince himself, he can't convince himself.
"I got it."
Ray, who was thinking, returns to me in Nielsen's words.
If you notice, Ray's appearance had at some point arrived at the place where the fairies lived.
That is also where the wolves that Ray became close to died.
(Right)
Seeing where the wolf is buried, Ray decides to tell the chief about this one.
In a way, he said he had his own.
But if the chief is going to give me a magic item even if I talk about it, Ray isn't going to deny it either.
"Ray? What's going on?
"No, I was wondering what I'd do if I met the chief."
"I don't care what...? Well, fine. Let's move on anyway. From here on out, you might get lost without me, so be careful. Don't let Seto leave."
"Grrrrrrrrrr"
To Nielsen's words, Seto rings his throat to indicate his willingness to accept.
It seemed to Ray that if he was a high-ranking monster like Seto, he might be able to ignore even the chief's abilities and arrive at the fairy's residence.
Nevertheless, I will not bother to say anything about it and confuse the fairies.
"You're out of fog. I hear a lot about fog in the Trent woods, but still, I've never heard of a sudden thick fog so far. Is this fairy power, too?
Looking at the fog drifting around him, Ray asks Nielsen sitting on his shoulder.
Sometimes the forest of Trento is more than a part of nature, naturally, but there is fog.
Especially now it is more prone to becoming an extra fog than there is a lake in the form adjacent to the Trento forest.
But still, I don't even remember hearing Ray say that he would otherwise have a thick fog so far, and that he spends a lot of time in the Trent woods, but I don't remember experiencing it.
Nielsen nods naturally to the question that came out of Ray's mouth like that.
"Right. In this mist, we will not be able to move properly without our fairies together or our long blessings."
"A blessing from the chief.... Werewolves were free to get in and out of here because of it? Or was it because someone had a fairy with them, like me and Nielsen right now?
"Blessings. With us and blessings, you don't have to worry about this fog so much. In fact, there is little fog in my eyes."
"Really? From what I can tell, the fog is so thick that I can't see a bit further."
That wasn't a big story, it was an unmistakable fact.
In this situation, if you are just a few meters away, you will not be able to see the forest from Ray's eyes.
That was not the case when the fog first came out, but it gradually grew thicker as we proceeded through this fog.
(Maybe evidence that this fog has thickened is approaching the fairy's residence or something? Most likely, then it won't be difficult to travel to the fairy's residence due to the thickness of the fog.... No, you can't usually go through this fog at the point? Besides, the chief would be thinking about it.)
Like, for example, intentionally putting some light on fog density.
For this reason, it was not surprising that even if we proceeded to aim only for the mark of the foggy one, for example, if we noticed that we did not arrive at the fairy's residence and felt lost elsewhere.
Also, this time Ray is with Nielsen, and even more so, there is an invitation from a long time, so that he can pass without any problems, but if this is the one who goes to the fairy's residence without permission, it was obvious that one fairy prank after another would take place in this fog.
"Ray, don't get lost."
"I know. If we don't get away from Nielsen, there's no such thing as getting lost, is there? Then don't worry."
To Ray's words, Nielsen doesn't really imitate what happens if he leaves Ray.
Because if you imitate that, you don't know what kind of punishment you're going to get from the long run.
"Still, this fog is pretty convenient.... this wouldn't have helped if the anterm had tried to burn it?
"I can't. He said he was going to burn Trent's forest. If they imitate you like that, there's no point in having fog, is there? He's out of the fog."
If you say so, Ray can only be convinced too.
Because I understood that if I actually took the means to burn it, I would not be able to prevent it with fog.
(The fog is moisture for once, so I'm pretty sure it doesn't mean it's hard to burn... but it's an anterm.)
Anterm is a combat style that uses a lot of magic items.
It would be natural to use magic items more than having to do something about what you're doing on your own using magic items because you don't party and you're working solo.
Given Anterm's character, Ray could understand the solo.
Either way, if you create a flame with a magic item, it's not always possible to do something with fog.
Maybe... maybe really, but there's a chance that we can fight the flames with fog.
That's because Ray is told that magic items made by fairies are more powerful than magic items made by people.
But on the contrary, it's not strange that magic items interfere with each other, resulting in a situation that would normally be unthinkable if the fog were to burn.
"Anyway, I'm glad you were able to defeat Anterm.... Speaking of which, should I leave some food in the wolves' graves after my sight with the chief? As for the grave, I left it to the fairies."
The wolves lived with the fairies.
For that reason, if they asked us to leave it to ourselves to build the tomb, as Ray, we could only leave it to the fairies.
At the time, there was also a reason why it was necessary to take the amputated anterm under the dusker a little faster.
"Right. I'd be glad if you did. And the other kids."
In the wolf herd, there were several children.
In the battle against Anthelm, naturally the children are not left in the fairies' dwellings to participate.
It would be natural for those children to think that they would visit their parents' graves.
That's how it went... the fog eventually disappeared and the fairies arrived at their residence.
