Legend

The conversation with Zakat was quite interesting for Ray as well.

Originally, Ray was never good with people.

Matters like Anthelm were out of the question in the first place, but many adventurers tried to take the mount that they were up there from the start, either to show their strength.

Naturally, Ray doesn't do anything like deal with someone like that decently, and if they do, he returns it in the same way.

In that sense, the person named Zakat had the per capita goodness of dealing with Ray normally.

Many adventurers of rank A or higher have various pointy personalities.

In that sense, I guess nothing was wrong with the worker's decision to put Zakat on as a guide to Ray.

"Oh, apparently you were thrilled. Should I have come a little later?

A worker who came inside the room sees how Ray and Zakat were thriving about baked udon and tells him so.

Nearly half an hour has already passed since Ray entered this room.

I was a worker called by Lenora, but for some reason the paperwork that I really had to process first came together only today, so I processed the paperwork and then rushed here, but fortunately I was relieved that there was no such thing as Ray or Zakat being angry.

"Alliance Master. No, I've heard a lot about Ray's reputation, but it's funny to talk to him. Knowledge of cooking, in particular, is great. In the first place, when I heard Ray was the one who developed Udon, I wanted to thank him."

Zakat also has the personality to enjoy a meal even if it's not as good as Ray's.

For Zakat like that, the most surprising thing in recent years was udon...... it was baked udon too.

If I tried Zakat, baked udon would have been a food I had never imagined.

In that sense, Ray thought of udon... which meant that Ray reproduced exactly the dish he read in his book when he was little, but he thanked Ray for knowing that.

"I see. That said, you talked about that. Anyway, I thought we were fine, but we seem to be compatible with each other and most importantly. This doesn't seem to cause any particular problems on your journey to the Devil's Forest."

Originally, the worker also chose Zakat as his opponent who would feel comfortable with Ray...... at least he wouldn't be able to rub it, so in that sense, it's a brilliantly predictable form.

"Right. I don't think I'd have a problem with Zakat. I don't know how long it's gonna take us to get to the Devil's Forest, but we're gonna be together for a lot of time."

To Ray's words like that, the worker nods.

Zakat is also a very dependable adventurer for workers.

So is strength, but by acting more commonsense than that.

"Now let's get to the point quickly, as compatibility is fine with each other"

As a worker, I had a desire to get the Ray thing done as soon as possible and get back to my job.

I have processed the urgent documents, but they accumulate over time even now that we are talking about them.

"First, for the promotion exam, Ray shall spend two nights and three days in the Devil's Forest defeating at least two Rank A monsters. By the way, as far as this defeated monster is concerned, I'm going to quantify it as evidence, so bring the body as far as you can."

This would be a condition Ray could put out because he has mistering.

If Ray didn't have a mistering, he'd have decided to bring a crusade proof site.

Best of all, it's a Rank A monster in the Devil's Forest who was banned from entering.

Although it's not strange how many Rank A monsters are not known to exist per se, and in the case of such monsters it would be difficult to think about where the crusade proof site is.

"Okay.... By the way, that means I own the body of that Rank A monster, right?

Demonic stones, ingredients, above all meat.

If you are also a Rank A monster, they will all be very useful to Ray.

If now they say that the Rank A monster's body was defeated in the promotion exam, so the ownership is in the guild, etc., then no doubt Ray couldn't stand it either.

But the worker nods naturally to Ray's words.

"Yeah. I checked the whole thing out at the guild, and I plan to return it. We're all busy right now, but if you're a Rank A monster, you'll be happy to find out."

The words out of the worker's mouth are true, not great or nothing.

As an Alliance, an unknown monster… or even a known monster, we want more information about Rank A monsters.

Not to mention, this is a city on the border called Gilm.

A monster on the border is known for being very rare.

And the Rank A Monster information obtained in this guild is spread throughout the Adventurer Alliance, so that adventurers belonging to some guild do not die with the information obtained.

In that sense, the rarely gained corpse of a high-ranking monster named Rank A Monster was very important.

"If you own a body, I don't mind looking into it at the guild. So, what's the magic item for the example?

"This is it. Please don't lose it."

To Ray's words, the worker takes a small gem out of his nostalgia.

Of course it's not just a jewel, it's a jewel with a transmitter or GPS function that tells where the owner is.

Put that gem in a bag and the worker offers it to Ray.

"Be sure Ray wears this gem. This magic item is helping you see where Ray is. Please note that if you leave the Devil's Forest two nights or three days before you arrive, your promotion exam will be disqualified."

"Okay.... By the way, really, by the way, what happens to this magic item if I ever get killed by a monster in the Devil's Forest? It's a pretty valuable magic item, isn't it?

"Right. In that case, you will be sending a high-ranking adventurer. Like Zakat."

"It's me?... I'm telling you, I'm absolutely sorry I went into the Devil's Forest. Look, more than that, I definitely need Ray to pass the promotion exam. Okay? Absolutely.

Do you really hate going into the Devil's Forest from the bottom of your heart, Zakat tells Ray that?

(Like this reluctance, considering you know where the Devil's Forest is, maybe you've been into the Devil's Forest before? So you got a scatter eye or something?

There was an anticipation in Ray that it probably would be, but from what I've seen this way, I don't know if it really is.

Nevertheless, it was Ray's idea that we shouldn't imitate anything like going in on the matter.

"Okay. Of course, I'm going to take this promotion exam, and I'm not going to die in the Devil's Forest. On the contrary, let them defeat Rank A monsters in the Devil's Forest like three, four, five"

Ray's words to say so were full of confidence that he would absolutely survive.

If you just say so, anyone can do it.

But in Ray's case, even words like that are strong persuasive.

In fact, Zakat finds himself relieved to hear such Ray's words.

Zakat knows the fear of the Devil's Forest.

As an Alliance Master, the worker knows more about Ray's prowess than Zakat.

For that reason, Ray could have believed the words if he had said so.

"So it seems like you don't have to worry first that this magic item will no longer be the Devil's Forest"

"Right. I don't know what I'm asking, but you seem to have made me worry senseless. Either way, I decide to keep this gem with me.... By the way, really, by the way, can't we just keep it inside the mysteries or something?

I said that because I thought that even if Ray had the jewels in the bag, he could drop them when he made intense moves during the fight.

If, as the worker says, it is such an important magic item, why not store it in mystering to never lose it?

That's what I was saying, but the worker gives me a slightly more difficult look.

"I find it a little difficult... would you like to give it a try? Store it in the mistering."

That's what they say, Ray stores the bag in the mistering.

After checking that, the worker closes his eyes.

What the hell? I thought so, but from what I've been through, it's not a difficult story.

I can easily imagine that Ray is looking into the magic items stored in the mysteries.

I didn't know where the worker had the magic item that paired with the magic item Ray had stored in Mystering.

Eventually, after about ten seconds, the worker opens his closed eyes and shakes his neck to the side.

"Unfortunately, you can't detect the reaction if it's stored in mystering. Keep your jewelry in your robe or not."

"Right."

Unfortunately, Ray doesn't look so depressed.

If you store it in mysteries, there's basically no time flow.

If so, it is not surprising that the gem is not perceived by the worker.

(Pocket watches and so on haven't moved while it's in the mistering. In that sense, it is natural that the gem does not work)

If it's a pocket watch that Ray has, the time is automatically adjusted when he takes it out of the mystering and Ray tries to use it.

If so, it is not surprising that the gemstone is to have its effect after being similarly removed from mystering.

"For that reason, this is good for the jewelry thing, right? So, I need to get back to work, so can I leave the rest to Zakat?

"Oh, I don't mind.... but that's tough too."

smudging and Zakat pointing his gaze at the worker caring.

Zakat has a common sense personality as a Rank A Adventurer.

Beyond that, I could understand that the worker is now very difficult at work, so I guess I hung up the words to care for him.

Most of all, I definitely didn't intend to do anything more than that because I hung up on words that cared.

"Right. But this busy schedule will settle in a little while."

Settling down after the time in this case is not a time like… if only a few days later, and that would be if the season were to fall.

In fact, in the fall, the job will definitely calm down.

Because a lot of people come out before the winter to set their sights on the streets, and when they work that far, they go back to their homes before it snows.

Nevertheless, I had to hang it from late autumn to winter, and I'm pretty sure there will be a lot more work to be done on Gamelion's crusade - hunting to be exact - or the dismantling of Giganto Turtle, and I'll be busy there... but still, I'm pretty sure I'm not busier than I am now.

"Well, let me take care of Ray"

To Zakat, who says so, the worker nods... and finally turns his gaze to Ray.

"Promotional exam to Rank A, I hope you pass"

The last word of it, a worker leaving the room.

Ray and Zakat drop that back off and then get into the conversation quickly.

Nevertheless, it has been decided from the outset what needs to be done.

We're just going to the Devil's Forest.

"How does Zakat get around? I think I know, but I'm gonna get on Ceto and move.... If this is normal, we can move Zakat along, but we can't imitate the situation like that."

"Don't be. You'll have trouble coming back from the Devil's Forest, even if it's good to go to the Devil's Forest."

Seto also needs to go into the Devil's Forest with Ray, naturally Zakat needs to come back to Gilm on his own after guiding Ray to the Devil's Forest.

At that time, when I was traveling in Seto, I would naturally return, but it would be on foot.

I have no particular problem for Zakat going from Demon Forest to Guild on foot, but I still prefer not to imitate that.

That's why Zakat told me that he had horses available from his guild... and that he had horses ready that would not be a problem to act with Seto.
