Legend

Lunch soup...... of course that's not enough, other than that Ray, who finished cooking, leaves the safe house with Seto.

If you try Ray or Seto, this safe house is where they were born... but still, Ray can't imitate slower in the safe house than he is currently taking promotion exams.

No, I took a nap for about an hour, so I didn't even think I was taking it slow at that point.

Either way, Ray only has two nights and three days to stay in the Devil's Forest.

In that time, I needed to defeat at at least two Rank A monsters.

Not to mention that Ray, the user of Warcraft, needed to defeat a little more high-ranking monsters in order to enhance Seto and Death Size.

More than that, there's no reason to keep slowing down just because we're back in the safe house.

Above all, it's too comfortable in the building, so staying in the building all the time is unpleasant considering the promotion exam, and the behavior after judging so.

That's why I went out of the junction this afternoon to explore the Devil's Forest and look for Rank A monsters...

"You're not here."

"Gru."

Ringing his throat as Seto agrees with Ray's words.

What I'm looking for is a black snake.

Rather than rank A, a monster with strength that would be comparable to rank S.

Ray, somehow...... really somehow, thought that that black snake might be a monster created by someone at the Zeppyre Gate in Warcraft.

Of course, there's no such thing as evidence.

It's purely from Ray's perspective.

If so, it is understandable that Ray suddenly appeared without any sense of existence in spite of all those giants.

(I think it feels similar to Seto's optical camo skills... in this case, I wonder. If the level gets to 10, will the performance change again?

Optical camouflage was dramatically enhanced with a level of five.

Specifically, the activation time was not comparable to that up to level four.

If you think about it that way, it wouldn't be that weird if you changed to another level of skill when the level got to 10.

"Grrrrrrrr?"

I guess I noticed Ray looking at himself. What's the matter with you? and Seto turns a strange gaze.

"I thought maybe that black snake was Seto's senior."

"Gru!?

I guess Ray's words were surprising.

Seto rattles his throat as surprised.

If that black snake was born in Warcraft, as Ray predicted, then you can say that it is Ceto's senior, as Ray put it.

Most of all, given the time when the black snake was born and Seto's, there was also the question of whether it was a time difference that could be called a senior junior, although it was not very much there.

(Right. Ask Grimm if that black snake was created by someone at the Zeppyre Gate in Warcraft as he listened to the report on Dragonias' body)

As long as there is a GPS magic item to know where it is, the promotion exam will undoubtedly be disqualified if Ray imitates it to leave the Devil's Forest two nights and three days before it passes.

But Ray has a pair of orbs.

... The problem would be that Grimm was focusing too much on research, and Ray didn't know if the expression incoming to the pair of orbs - but whether he noticed or not.

However, if we can contact each other in a pair of orbs, we can be sure that the information is available.

Grimm had an extraordinary sense of respect for Zeppael… and for Zeppael Gate, which is why he should have known more about the monsters created by Warcraft in the face of Zeppael Gate.

(Zepile's monster was wolf-shaped, so I'm pretty sure it's different for now)

With that in mind, Ray takes a big, deep breath to change his mood.

Strong grass odor, drifting in the Devil's Forest.

The scent, which should also be called the smell of nature, comes into Ray's nose.

Even when he was in Japan, Ray, who had a house just on the side of the mountain, frequently went into the mountains.

That's when, in the summer, this kind of smell drifted, but the smell that drifts like this now smells like dense forest by the time it's overwhelming compared to what's in those mountains.

(With that said, I remember being surprised by the intense green odor, even when you first came out of the junction.... just surprised me today, but not as much as before)

I tell myself again that while I miss when I took my first step, I was looking for a monster about my promotion exam.

So the first thing Ray did was focus his consciousness.

Monsters in the Devil's Forest, they're all strong.

In and out of the Devil's Forest, it's very different.

"If I could, I'd just like to take down that dragonfly monster."

Quick...... yes, even Ray can only evade aggressively, reminding me of a dragonflying monster so fast that I can't fight back and whine.

If Ray dodged the first blow because he was an individual specialized in one blow exit, there was nothing like coming any closer.

Other than that, Ray just wants to knock down all the monsters, except the Black Snake, and if he can, he wants to knock down the Dragonfly monster, too, which Ray naturally thinks he is.

Not to mention what skills can be mastered by just that quick opponent.

If I could, such a powerful...... no, I guess being powerful means being like a black snake, so maybe the expression is more worthy of being a pain in the ass in the ass in this case, but I want to encounter such a monster anyway, defeat it and get the Demon Stone.

Especially if that monster is a monster of rank A or higher, nothing to say.

In Ray, there is no such option as to enlist the help of a black snake who was friendly to himself.

Alternatively, if the Black Snake is to become Ray's submissive, it may mean making such a choice.

But Ray is not going to turn the Black Snake into an obedient demon.

Beyond that, I'm the only one who acts in the Devil's Forest... No, there's Seto too, so I needed to do it alone and alone with that Seto.

"All right, Seto. Let's go. I want to find another monster as soon as I can."

"Gru!"

Seto rings in Ray's words, and Ray and Seto go on through the demonic forest.

The monsters are really nowhere near as much as they are on the side of the junction.

If we were to encounter high ranking monsters, we still needed to leave this juncture.

(In that regard, after all, it's likely that Black Snake was created by someone at the Zeppyre Gate in Warcraft...)

Ray checks the surroundings, recalling the appearance of the black snake, which normally approached the side of the junction.

Are there any monsters around us who are after themselves?

Where I'm thinking that way, Seto accidentally rattles his throat.

"Grrrrrrrr?"

For a moment, it was really a moment, but Ray, hearing that ceto squeal, thinks the monster might have attacked him.

But Seto's chirping isn't like encouraging vigilance, it's like making you wonder, that kind of chirping.

At least not as loud as the enemy is about to attack us now.

"What? What's up?

Hang that voice on Ceto, but Ceto remains gazed at the bushes a little further away.

Ray also sees the bushes following Seto's gaze like that.

Gasari, and.

As if Ray had been waiting for the moment to turn his gaze, he could inadvertently hear the bush unnaturally shake.

Maybe in a monster? That's what I thought, Ray, but that doesn't make Seto look as if he's on guard.

Ray also thinks his five senses and sixth sense kind are sharp, but he nevertheless understood that Seto was better than himself in that respect.

From what Ceto looks like, I guess it's not the enemy who's over the bush for now.

Thinking that way, the bush moves hard again...

"Con!"

With such a ringing voice, the fox shows up.

It's also small to see, a fox child.

Of course, it's a fox, but it's not more of a normal animal fox than being in the Devil's Forest.

Evidence of this is that there are two fox tails.

From Ray's eyes, it would definitely be a monster.

Nevertheless, the child fox does not show how he escapes even when he sees Seto.

On the contrary, the beginning and end of coming all the way under the feet of Totetote and Seto with a radiant eye for curiosity.

(If you're a regular monster, most of you run away when you sense Seto's presence. Some monsters, like goblins, approach their opponents without being able to detect their strength.... No, doesn't it make sense to think about that in the Devil's Forest)

In fact, monsters in the Devil's Forest didn't do anything like run away when they saw Seto's presence first.

Given the circumstances around it, I guess this little fox can't help but be scared of Seto, as well as being a monster who once inhabits the Devil's Forest, yes Ray thinks.

"Uh... Seto, you're just in time to be cute"

"Gru."

If you try Ceto, he's the one who came close with an interest in himself.

I can't imitate anything more like attacking a detour as a ceto than not being the kind of opponent I've attacked without question, like any other monster.

Or if it is not Ray or Seto who is here, and the monster is such a person as to kill instantly, maybe even a child fox like this will kill him at the time he shows up.

Nevertheless, Ray would not have been able to honestly nod if he had asked if the fox would also imitate such things as putting his face in front of such an opponent.

Nevertheless, Ray is only here for the promotion exam... to defeat at at least two Rank A monsters.

Not to mention, until earlier, I'm taking a nap, eating lunch and consuming my morning time.

Of course, it is by no means meaningless in the sense of taking Ray's fatigue or quenching his hunger, and above all in the sense of realizing that Ray and Seto are back where they were born.

But it's still a fact that I've spent more time than just two nights and three days in the Devil's Forest.

"Con?"

The fox, who came all the way before Seto, sounds in a strange way.

The way it is, it's adorable to see.

(I've seen animal kids do something to show their adorability to protect themselves... but looking at it this way, it's a tremendous destructive force)

Ray had also seen things like puppies, kittens, and hiyoko when he was in Japan.

All of them are so adorable, it would be natural to have the desire to be loved.

"Grrrrrrrrrrrr?"

Seto turns his gaze to Ray as he squeaks in confusion against Sunsung and the child fox who smells his own smell.

What am I gonna do? And that was Ceto the way he said it, but Ray also has trouble being turned to such a gaze.

Of course, I don't think Ray wants to kill this fox.... I don't think so.

If this fox is going to attack us, it was different, but as far as we can see now, there is no such thing as hostility towards ourselves in the fox.

More than that, even as Ray, I couldn't imitate things like attacking here.

"Fox...... is that a child fox too. What does a fox eat?

Fox ecology...... not to mention that more than having two tails, that ecology is more than just being a monster rather than a wildlife, Ray doesn't know.

Whether it is okay to give the meat stored in the mysteries.

Or is it too early to give meat yet?

"In the meantime, we have to go now. You can't just walk in the Devil's Woods like this, can you?

"Con?"

To Ray's words, the fox looks up strangely.

You recognize that Ray is not a hostile opponent to you, there is no color of fright there.

On the other hand, do we play together because we don't know what words mean? You want to play? Let's play? I was even pointing my gaze at something like that.

Having friendly monsters isn't a bad story for Ray either.

On the contrary, child foxes are adorable enough to even think about taking them as healing agents.

(Perhaps if I take this fox to the Guild, it will definitely become popular)

Seto also became popular because he is adorable, but now he is over 3m long.

Many people still think it's adorable, but I'm sure there are people who are scared of it because of its size. … but I immediately understand that such a person is not afraid once he deals with Seto.

Ray was convinced that this little fox would love him without a problem, even if he was such an unexpected opponent to be scared of when he first saw Seto.
