Legend

A few days after asking about the sound of fog... Ray had been taught about courtesy by Elaine.

No, not exactly for politeness, but for rhetoric.

Courtesy itself is already quite capable of Ray as well.

Courtesy, though complicated and cumbersome, was nevertheless dictated by the method itself.

Beyond that, it's not hard later if you remember that.

No, I can't imitate things like remembering them so easily, but in Ray's case, it was somewhat, but there was a basement, so I managed to do something about it.

However, unlike the determined courtesy of movement, speech is not to be determined.

Ray's rhetoric about Dusker makes a big impression that he doesn't mind because he's a Dusker.

Nevertheless, that is only a unique story of real nobility, and Ray is only an adventurer.

Above and beyond that, it is normal to be tolerated unless even the aristocrats and royalty are so abusive in their language.

I mean, I wouldn't have to teach Ray so much detail if I were supposed to... but if I tried to be Elaine, someday it might be time to get Ray to meet her own father in that sense.

That's when I decided I'd rather let it go now than rush into saluting practice.

"Hmm, so be it. Let me rephrase your daughter to me."

"... what?

Unexpectedly, to Elaine's words, Ray is bewildered by what she is saying for a moment.

Naturally. The salutation we are currently practicing is only what we use at work.

If so, why does such a word come up at the job?

(Maybe even pretend to be my fiancée to be a Rank A Adventurer?

Ray came up with something like that.

I guess it's actually happening among the nobles. Political marriage is not always welcome.

Especially if you actually try to be the one to marry, it's not surprising that someone wants to avoid a political marriage for a variety of reasons, such as having a lover apart, never fitting the other person, or likely to be assassinated at the place of their daughter-in-law.

It wasn't surprising that an adventurer would ask me to act like a lover as a reason for saying no to such an opponent.

Naturally, you don't have to be a Rank A adventurer if you're just going to pretend to be a lover.

But there's nobility.

Doesn't it need to bring in someone with the right strength than it could be trouble if you do poorly?

Yes, Ray thinks.

... Actually, it's a total lie.

No, I'm pretty sure you actually have a request for that hand, and it's true that there are things like asking a high-ranking adventurer to pretend to be your lover.

But what Elaine wanted Ray to say now was only words that came from her own desires.

In addition to Elaine and Ray, there was an appearance of Arla on this occasion, but because Arla understood Elaine's feelings, she watched the two of them, especially without saying anything.

"Right. Then... um, give me a minute. Can't you just say," Please give me your daughter "again?

"I don't know. Ray should think for himself and do something about it."

"Even if they say so... you're you, aren't you? No, wait. Giving me a daughter is like telling me to be my stepfather, or should I say stepfather or something?

"Huh!?

Your father-in-law and the moment Ray says yes, Elaine stops Vikri and her body from moving.

Probably because the words out of Ray's mouth were more destructive than expected.

... I didn't call Elaine my stepfather anything, but that's what I felt made my relationship with Ray decisive.

"Ray, again...... yeah?

I want you to say it again.

That's right. It was Elaine trying to say to Ray, but I understand someone came by the voice I heard from the front door.

I guess the fact that the Spirit tolerated it is not harmful.

That was also known by Elaine, but it was only natural that she could not seem amused by the fact that she was interrupted by blissful times.

Nevertheless, this is not Elaine's house, it is only Marina's house.

There's no reason to leave the person you've been visiting more than keeping that absence.

Not to mention the possibility that you've come to this house is the person you've been visiting.

"Ara."

"Yes."

It was a short word, but that's enough to tell Ara.

That's how Arla heads to the front door.

……

What stays in the living room is silence.

Elaine can't see why she did something like that, and now she can't see why Elaine suddenly shut up in Ray.

For that reason, the living room was thus filled with silence...

Lord Ray, it's you.

Breaking the silence was Arla's voice back in the living room.

"Customer? To me?

I came to this house, so naturally I thought that the guests were sent by the aristocrats, so maybe Elaine here, or the marina of the owner of this house.

But Ara definitely mouthed Ray's name.

If so, I guess the aim of the visitors who came is definitely Ray.

"Yes, it's from the Alliance"

"... I see. Pretty soon."

If you've bothered to ask yourself from your guild in this situation, it's easy to predict that the reason would be something to do with your promotion exam to Rank A.

Surprisingly, for some reason, I may have needed Ray's help in a hurry.

A guild with many adventurers, but among them Ray stands out for his mobility and ability to carry.

Thanks to Seto and Mystering, no one more than Ray currently exists in the Guild with regard to those two things.

Even when he had demonic fever before, Ray had ridden Seto to carry material that would serve as a cure.

I thought that might be one of those things this time, someone who came into the living room...... I saw Lenora and immediately denied it.

Lenora's expression doesn't have a color stuffed with cut wings.

(Speaking of which, it was Lenora who picked me up even during Devil's Fever)

With that in mind, Ray opens his mouth.

"You mean Lenora came all the way here about the promotion exam?

"Yes, I have a story from the Alliance Master about Mr. Ray's Rank A promotion exam. If you don't mind, I'd still like you to come to the guild now, would you mind?

"Oh, I don't mind"

As for Ray, he waited for the promotion exam to come whenever he wanted.

Beyond that, I even thought I could take the exam right now.

... Nevertheless, given the current situation, there was no doubt that it was impotent.

It can be expected that what I was called today would be an explanation for it, rather than an immediate promotion exam.

That's why I have no reason not to make the choice to head to the guild here.

"That's why I'm going to the guild for a bit"

"Um, be careful...... though, I guess there's nothing to worry about that much because I'm talking about Ray"

I just know what Ray's power is, and that's what I'll tell you, Elaine.

It was Lenora who showed such surprise at how Elaine was doing.

Lenora is also friendly with Elaine and Ray... on the contrary, I know this is how we live together, but I still didn't think Elaine would worry about Ray so far.

(Kenny...... I don't know what to do)

For some reason, there are many women who are rumored to be Ray.

But Kenny was the first of them to meet Ray.

Nonetheless, there's no way Kenny and Ray's friends have progressed at all.

Thinking about a friend for a moment, but now that I have something to do, I immediately shake my head to the side and forget the idea once.

"So shall we go? The Alliance Master is waiting for Mr. Ray."

"If you're a worker, you think it's a waste of time to have me, and you do your job."

To Ray's words, Lenora nods unconsciously.

In fact, many guild employees still work without Lenora in the guild, and that's because the same goes for workers.

This is how Lenora is picking up Ray, too, but I needed to get back to work when I got back to the guild.

Reminds me of that reality and turns my gaze out the window with the thought of making a half-reality escape...... so I see the sight of Seto and Yellow running around.

But for a moment...... really for a moment but I felt like there was something else in the courtyard besides Seto and Yellow.

But because I saw something of it for a moment, I tried to look in the courtyard again...

"Lenora, you're going to the guild, right? I'm just gonna get ready, just wait in front of the house."

Hear Ray's words spoken inadvertently, and soon your consciousness will be pointed at you.

"Okay. Okay, I'll wait outside."

That's what I said, Lenora, walking out of the living room.

"Phew."

Seeing Lenora like that, Ray exhales loudly.

No, that's not just Ray. Elaine and Arla were also showing relief.

Naturally. The moment Ray calls out, what Lenora was watching is the courtyard.

And in the courtyard, there are currently Seto and Yello... and Nielsen.

I didn't have any business going back to Trento Forest today in particular, and instead of acting with the Vihelas, I was playing with Seto and the Yellows in the courtyard.

Try the Rays, it was a normal sight to have Nielsen.

That's why I didn't care, but when I saw Lenora gaze toward the courtyard me in that, I finally realized about Nielsen and rushed to block the conversation.

The fairy thing is still being told to keep it a secret.

Beyond that, it was absolutely necessary to avoid things like getting Lenora to know Nielsen.

I had to realize that first, but it was really sudden, and I was late to realize it.

"Thanks... na"

To Ray's words whining, Elaine and Arla nod as they agree.

"Mm-hmm. I totally forgot that the sight of Nielsen being there was just becoming routine. You have to be careful from now on."

"That being said, Nielsen is usually not in this house during the day, so I can't help it."

That's what Ara says to encourage Elaine, but Elaine shakes her neck to the side against Arla like that.

"No, this would have been due to my relaxation. I would have noticed if it was normal."

Arla will be unable to say anything to Elaine's words.

In fact, I was relaxed by the fact that Elaine spent a lot of time with Ray these days, not just today.... In other words, I was losing my mind because Ara couldn't deny it either.

"Anyway, Ray better head to the guild. But I'd rather not take Nielsen than go to the guild."

"Nielsen might say he wants to go, but it's definitely gonna be a hassle,"

Curious Nielsen.

If you go inside the guild and see many of them working busily in it, you could imitate things like pranking from your instincts as a fairy.

If such imitations were made in the guild, there was ample likelihood that Nielsen's presence would be exposed.

At any rate, the Alliance has many adventurers.

Also, some Alliance employees are like ex-high rank adventurers.

If such people were to be pranked by Nielsen in the guild, it would undoubtedly be a huge commotion.

That would make it impossible to hide one of the fairy cases.

"Then leave Nielsen to me. Yellow would love to play with Nielsen, too."

Ray nods at such Elaine's words and heads to the courtyard.

"Seto, I'm going because my guild called me a little, but what about Seto?

"Gru!"

To Ray's words, of course I go myself! and Seto squeals.

"Hey, Ray. What am I supposed to do?

With that said, Nielsen showed in his attitude that he wanted to go too, but Ray shook his neck sideways against it.

"I'm sorry, but I can't do that. What we're going to do is guild. It's a place with lots of adventurers. A lot of guys don't have arms now, but still some of them do. If you take Nielsen to a place like that... no doubt Marina will be pissed"

Nielsen seemed to waste his time, so he puts out the names of the world tree witch marinas to control their destinations.

And if they gave me the name of the marina, Nielsen couldn't say anything more.
