Legend

A disturbance naturally occurred due to the appearance of Seto, who was three meters overweight.

Some of them screamed at Rays as if they were bandits' companions and were already inside the city, but Rays shows guild cards to soldiers in their fifties or so who seem to be the representatives on the spot without looking particularly concerned.

And when the soldier who was shown the guild card found out that the boy in front of him was an adventurer with a deep red alias, he immediately declared to those who were on the spot that Ray was an adventurer and asked him to do so.

"Deep red ray. I had no idea there was an adventurer with an alias at a time like this.... you should have noticed when you were on the griffon in the first place"

"I can't help it in this situation. I don't care about this one, so don't worry about that one either."

"Helpful. So please..."

"I know. The annihilation of bandits on their way to the city, right?

"... No, I was going to ask you to protect the city... of course, there's no problem with this one if you take down the bandits. But it's hard to prepare enough rewards for an adventurer with an alias."

Normally, hiring an adventurer with an alias can be quite expensive.

Having an alias is all that special.

Ray doesn't care about the neighborhood at all, but if he hires Ray, he would be a Rank B Adventurer because he has an alias, while the rewards would be higher than the average Rank A Adventurer.

This city is an average city, and if you ask me if I can get enough money ready to hire Ray, though there's some storage there, it would be a subtle place.

If this was any kind of specialty, it would have been something else.

Soldiers negotiating with Ray negotiate with Ray while desperately exercising self-control to avoid being blinded by the beauty and limbs of Vihera standing beside Ray.

We need to get Ray to do something about it. That, too, is as cheap as you can get.

That's what I thought...

"The commission, right? Five bags containing flour. So what do you say?

"... what? Flour?"

The words out of Ray's mouth were totally unexpected to the soldiers… and to those who were watching the negotiations around them.

Didn't you know what they said for a moment and you heard wrong after a few seconds of silence? He asks me like that.

"That's right. Flour's pretty famous around here, isn't it?

"No, that's, uh... that's not enough to highlight, though, is it? I am confident in the quality of our wheat flour, but there are still many places that produce wheat of the same quality and sell it as flour."

We are confident in the quality of the wheat we make, but not even a specialty.

To the guard who says so, Ray nods that he doesn't mind.

"There are many different dishes with flour. Besides, if it's money, you can take the treasure that the bandits have, and the bandits you capture alive will be bought off by the slavers in this city. That way, you don't have to worry about money at all. I don't think that's a bad story for you."

To Ray, who asks, the guards nod, of course.

It wasn't a bad story for the city, but there were obviously too many benefits for Ning Lo and himself.

It was unfortunate that the bandits could not confiscate the treasures they possessed, but if they did not have to crusade the bandits, it would be easier to give up than it was originally gold.

On the contrary, they say they sell the bandits as slaves, so on balance, it's clearly a positive deal for the city.

That's what I gave you five bags of flour for, which would be overwhelmingly more profitable.

"Why did you get there?

"There are many reasons. We came to this city to buy potions, but some of the city's residents were kind to us. And the kids in this city weren't scared to look at Seto."

"Gru!"

To Ray's words, Seto sounds right and loud.

The people around them were amazed at how Ceto was doing, and some left after a few steps.

But if they told me the kids weren't scared, they wouldn't have thought they were scared. I manage to stay on the spot.

Looking at such residents, Ray opens his mouth like a snap.

Besides, bandit hunting is my hobby.

"... hobbies?

Just like when I was told to get five bags of flour as a reward, the soldier I was negotiating with Ray showed up not knowing what was being said at first.

But does Ray have a problem with soldiers like that? Like, when I said that my hobby of bandit hunting isn't particularly strange, it looks flat.

In fact, hunting bandits is both a hobby and a real gain for Ray.

And bandits don't disappear no matter how much they hunt.

Knock it down, knock it down, hunt it down, kill it, kill it, it doesn't mean the bandits disappear.

There are some people who turn to the easier ones.

If you try to be such people, bandits seem attractive in the sense that you can live without working and taking money and things away from people.

Whoever may seem attractive to it must be from among men.

More than that, Ray's hunt for bandits will never be possible.

"Ah, bandit-eating!

And one of the people around me looks at Ray and screams like that.

Bandit eating is the name I gave Ray, who has a hobby for bandit hunting.

It would be like another alias from Deep Red.

"Yeah, apparently, some bandits say that.... Whatever the average person knows about it"

In Ray's words, the gaze of those around him gathers at the man who spoke of eating bandits.

That's what the bandits call me, I guess because Ray talked about it.

Maybe the sight can be pointed at, like, being one of the bandits.

"Well, I'm not hiding anything from eating bandits, and it wouldn't be surprising if the average person had information,"

Those who were listening to Ray finally look relieved by what he said.

And the man who talked about eating bandits was also relieved that he was escaped from sight.

(It's not weird if there's a guy with a little bit of a reason. With ex-barriers?... I feel like I saw it, and it doesn't look like I'm going through with this bandit)

There's nothing strange about it, so I decided that for now... I ask the soldier to turn his gaze.

"So? In the end, what are you gonna do? As for this one, I want you to decide as soon as you can."

"Okay, please. Five bags of flour, I can handle it on my authority."

"Okay. That's a deal. I would have been more certain if you had asked me through the guild, but I can't imitate that under the circumstances. I'll make it personal."

If it is a request not to pass the guild, then even if it is argued that it was actually not a request after the bandit's crusade, it cannot be imitated like relying on the guild.

Most importantly, anyone would understand what would happen if we imitated Ray, Vihella and Seto, who have the strength to just defeat all of the bandits with two and one.

Not to mention, if the reward is five bags of flour, it would be worse to be hostile without paying.

Of course, if the guards had a small, cunning character, they would have been different around there.

But fortunately, this guard never did.

"Well, now you've got a request. Later, give me information on the bandits. I heard about the bandits coming, but what exactly are they around and how many are there?"

Personally, I'd prefer a bigger bandit.

That's what I wanted to say, Ray, but I kept my mouth shut thinking that saying that in the current situation would inspire the residents watching what was going on around them, regardless of the guards.

If you lay it on, the large size of the bandits is a testament to the fact that their opponents have repeatedly raided so many times, and you can expect many treasures to be accumulating.

Other than that, the high number of people means that they sell to slave traders more often when they are caught alive.

"It seems there are about twenty of them. We're on our way to this city right now."

"That's a lot of people."

The bandits, the Twenty, also seem like an average number of people, given the bandits Ray has hunted so far.

Those who heard Ray say something like that, are they? And though I had my doubts.

Like Ray, I guess there's a difference in the feel around there between those who are used to fighting bandits and the average person.

"If you're coming this way, it's just fine. Vihera, Seto, go and defeat me. We need to find out where the bandits are hiding the treasure."

Vihera and Seto snort all over the words of Ray like that.

Normally, challenging 20 people to fight alone is nothing but suicidal behavior.

But there was nothing particularly odd about me dealing with the majority if I tried it on Ray, and that was the same with Vihera and Seto again.

We heard a little more about the direction the bandits were coming from the guards and got out of the city quickly.

"Gru!"

Less than a minute after leaving the city, Seto, who was flying in the sky, finds the bandits on the ground.

Given Seto's flying speed, it wasn't a difficult story to find the bandits on their way to the city in this short period of time.

"Nevertheless, that number pushes you to the city... could it have mattered without me?

Vihera, who is grasping at Seto's forefoot, returns the words to Ray, who grumbles over Seto's back.

"You didn't mean to occupy the city, did you? If we'd been appropriately rampaged around and looted, we'd have left the city, wouldn't we?

"Will it? I don't know how to get into the city, but in this case, I doubt it."

Maybe there were insiders with bandits all over the city, or guys who were getting into it.

With that in mind, Ray remembers who he called himself a bandit hunt.

Nevertheless, from what Ray has seen, it may have been a former bandit, but it didn't seem like he was an active bandit.

More than that, he decides that perhaps the man will not be one of these bandits...... if he gets off to the ground for now and defeats the bandit, he decides that he will have no problem.

Seto, come down.

"Grrrrrrrr?"

Don't you have to make a preemptive attack? and Seto raises the squeal of doubt on Ray's instructions.

But Ray just snorts at Seto's words like that.

"In the end, those people are bandits. If you are badly damaged by a pre-emptive attack, you are likely to escape immediately"

It's not strange to judge that only bandits have the highest priority for their survival.

On the contrary, it's not strange to do things like attack your people as a stepping stone to your enemies in order to escape.

It's not a problem for Ray for bandits to hurt each other, but honestly, I don't really want them to get hurt if they can do more than they intend to sell as slaves. for the price of slaves.

Even if a slaver buys out the bandits, if he's injured, he'll have to use the potion, and the price for it will be deducted.

Also, I didn't want them to use the potion for nothing if they could than I bought a lot of potions.

Yes, Ray explains, Seto is firmly convinced to descend toward the ground.

Naturally, some of the bandits are sharp.

We noticed the presence of Seto descending toward us, and some began to make noise.

But Ray gets off Seto's back when he lands on the ground with no idea how he cares about such a bandit.

Vihera has also landed on the ground with her hands off Seto's forefoot, which had been caught, where Seto's altitude has been reduced.

"What, you guys!?

One of the bandits, who hadn't noticed the Rays existed, let his guard seep and scream... but from what I've seen of Vihera, his face can stop being sloppy.

Naturally. Beauty with the word extinct at the end of her gaze on her head.

That's because they also wear thin clothes like hookers and dancers.

He was a vihella with a man's lustful gaze on him, but he just makes that beautiful, neat brow look a little uncomfortable.

Ray goes out in front of the bandits on his own so as to block such a gaze.

"Well, here's one suggestion"

The bandits become uncomfortable with Ray, who sees nothing frightening at all.

However, some attentive people who first found Seto had figured out who Ray was at the point where he was taking Griffon's Seto, causing his face to cramp.

Others could have noticed that, but I guess that's all the presence of Vihera was attractive.

"What? You want me to miss the city? Unfortunately..."

"Surrender. Don't let it hurt."

That's what Ray said, blocking the man's words.
