After watching the ring on the new moon for a while, Marina eventually returns it to Ray.

"No, I'm pretty confident in my ability to see magic items, but as far as I can see, I don't think it's that great." Not only magic, but also magic items themselves must have a hidden effect. That's more than Ray's Dragon Robes."
"I would have been lucky if it was such a powerful magic item."

　Marina's words make Ray nod happily and put the ring of the new moon on his finger.
　Then, when the conversation about the ring of the new moon is settled, Marina opens her mouth, crossing her legs to show off her fleshy thighs.

"Do you want information about Dungeon?"
"Huh? Oh, of course."
"May I ask you why? You know what kind of place that dungeon is, right? It's a shallow story, and the entrance and the inside are small. The monsters that appear are weak, too. In addition, the monsters' materials, magical stones, and parts to prove their defeat are all cheap. It's not a dungeon, but it's not a dungeon that a high-ranking adventurer like Ray."
"Maybe," But somehow I feel like I should go. Besides, it doesn't taste good to have a dungeon near Gilmoo, does it? Well, if you're going to live as a labyrinth city, it's a different story..."
"I can't,"

　a marina who instantly denies Ray's words
　That's only natural. The whole force of the Kingdom of Milliana was used to make the guillem, and it was only completed while consuming much of it.
　The dungeon is not far from the guillem, so it's true that it's easier than when you make the guillem.
　But even so, if you really want to build a labyrinthine city, you can't do it with guillem alone.
　That's something Ray knows so well that he continues without showing any signs of refuting Marina's words.

"Well, that's the way it is," I've been away from Gillum for a while, and it means getting used to her skills."
"...I don't mind. Many of the monsters that appear are goblins or coborts. a little stronger oak And what about augers?"
"Wouldn't an auger make some money?"
"Normally," But as I said, the dungeon is quite small. If you encounter an auger in the midst of that... you know what I mean?"

　I think for a moment and nod back to Marina's words.

"There is no space to avoid and counterattack a large attack."
"Oh, and even if you put it down that hard, the materials and magical stones are very poor... with a free gift."
"Wow..."

　I heard from Dusker, but when I hear about Dungeon again, I understand why no one is challenging me.

"And you're going to challenge yourself in such a situation?"
"Oh,"

　When Marina asks him to be sure, Ray immediately nods back.
　Marina opened her eyes for a moment, wondering if she thought she'd get an immediate answer... but the next moment she'd get a glamorous smile.

"Yes, if Ray says so much, I have nothing more to do with him. Then, try your best to capture Dungeonce again. As a guildmaster, I don't favor him, but I'm looking forward to him."
"I want to do something about it this year, so I'd appreciate it if you could look forward to it and wait for me."
"Well, I'm looking forward to the report. Thank you for telling me so many stories today."
"Huh? Are you ready? I thought you'd ask me more about the Westian Empire."
"That's all right. There's a lot of bad news when I hear it, right? And even if I get some information, it's all bad when I hear it directly from Ray. Unless it's absolutely necessary, I'll get the information from somewhere else."

　Finally, Ray leaves the office.
　After seeing Ray back, Marina returns to her office desk and looks over the papers again.

"...why do you care so much about dungeon?"

　mutter as one signs a document
　Surely what Ray is saying is somewhat questionable, but not so strange.
　But still... it's true that I have some doubts about it's true.

"Is there any secret about the dungeon? If you think about it normally, is it related to the core of the dungeon? Or actually, there are some rare species in the dungeon... no." I can't think of anything. There's no point in thinking badly here."

　He shook his head slightly and concentrated on the papers in front of him, saying that his first priority was to finish his work as a guildmaster.





"Ray, Ray, Ray! Didn't you do anything wrong with the guildmaster?"

　When Ray comes down the stairs, Kenny, who is finally done preaching, rushes up to him.
　Kenny's appearance had some blood vessels on the forehead of a guild official who had been paying attention to him earlier, but it was more important for Kenny, the girl in love, to make sure Ray was not tempted by a thief cat than that.

"Huh? Oh, I just heard from the guildmaster about the dungeon and what happened in Guillum while I was away."
"Really?"
"Of course,"

　Ray says so without hesitation because nothing really happened.
　Kenny watched Ray's expression, but eventually he breathed a sigh of relief and calmed down.

"Yes, I'm glad... it hurts!"

　Behind Kenny was Lenora, just like before.
　What you have in your hand is like a ruler, and in the sense that you actually use it when you write various documents, the purpose is probably that of a ruler.
　After hitting Kenny on the head with the ruler, Lenora opens her mouth with some powerful gesture.

"Kenny, you've got a lot of courage in your guild to shout slanderous remarks about the guildmaster. Let me tell you something."
"Hey, Lenora! I'm going to have dinner with Ray to celebrate his reunion..."
"Well, Kenny," Are you and I still working? Do you understand that?"

　Lenora pulls Kenny by the collar of his uniform and forces him to take him, but the act flustered him.

"Hold on! Lenora, spill! My heart is going to spill! Unlike Lenora, my big heart!"

　Quite literally, Kenny's collar-pulled uniform had a protruding double-hills and could have been revealed at any time.
　Kenny's original uniform has an open chest unlike Lenora's.Under such circumstances, if the collar had been pulled too hard, it could have naturally escaped from there.
　...and Lenora's uniform is covered from neck to chest, but it's not clear whether it comes from Lenora's chest size complex.
　There have been some who have tried to ask about it, but the brave are the brave because they accomplish what is difficult to accomplish, and only a few are able to do so.
　Most of them end their lives in the hands of the demon.

"Mr. Ray,"
"What's that?"

　Lenora, who was pulling Kenny, relaxes and calls out to Ray.
　When Ray is a little surprised at the voice, Lenora bends her head in wonder before she gets to the point.

"I'll be waiting in the bar for the scorching wind. Mr. Millerine was looking for Mr. Ray."
"... oh, I see,"
"Hey, Lenora! Don't pull me! Ray, Ray!"
"Look, Kenny doesn't have much trouble because he's waiting for a sermon."

　Ray was looking at Kenny being dragged away like that, but then he went out of the counter, encouraged by the guild staff.

(Lenora, you're scared when you get angry.) Don't make me angry.)

　with that determination in one's heart





"Sorry, did you keep me waiting?"

　After Lenora and Kenny's affair was over, Ray had come to a bar attached to the guild.

"No, it's all right. I was just starving. How about your meal, Mr. Ray."
"Well, then I'll eat it, too,"

　Sulnin, who was drinking a soup full of ingredients at the table, smiled and answered, while the person next to him reached for the sandwich nods back.

"Well, it was time for lunch,"

　Seen slightly older than Ray, the girl was Eccrill, the last to join the ranks C party blazing winds with Mileine and Sulnin.

"I wish I had played with Seto more..."

　When he comes to the guild, he is forced to play with Seto by Sulnin, and complains while eating skewers.
　Looking at the three of them, Ray sat down at the table and looked at the menu...

"Yes,"

　let out a light cry of surprise
　That's because there was udon on the menu.
　Before Ray left for the Empire of Bestia, udon was widely available in guillem... and on the contrary, it was available in neighboring towns such as Abuero and Subursta, but still not in guild bars.
　You must have been curious about Ray's behavior. Looking down at the menu, a Mire Dog opens his mouth convincingly.

"Oh, udon," It seems that many people eat everything after drinking. Somehow it seems to come out quite a bit."

　The words remind Ray of a story about drunkards wanting to eat ramen after drinking when they lived in Japan.

(It's similar to that? I can only imagine it if I don't drink)

　While thinking about it that way, I'm interested in Udon noodles served in bars instead of in restaurants, so I order them.
　What came out was udon noodles eaten with a refreshing soup.
　The main ingredients are vegetables, and boiled meat is placed on top of udon noodles, as if it were a substitute for ramen char shu.

(Well, if you don't know ramen, it's a coincidence.)

　When I sipped udon, it tasted as refreshing as it looked, but the lumps of meat boiled in made me feel rich.
　For a moment, the sound of udon sipping echoes around.
　In addition, eating udon while sipping is not considered to be bad behavior because Ray told the Manjokutei that it is good manners to sipping udon.
　After eating udon noodles, eating ingredients, drinking soup, and finishing for a short time, Sulnin opens his mouth, watching for a chance to open his mouth.

"And today you said you would lift the seeds of warning..."
"Oh, that's where the Mire Dog has been released. You're listening, aren't you?"
"Yes, but yesterday I thought, why suddenly?"
"Miraine?"

　Mileine opens her mouth to Ray's question of explaining why she had decided to lift the warning.

"It's about Seto. Ray should explain. I don't think I can speak for myself."
"And so,"

　He readily agrees with Mireine's words and talks about how he used Seto's skills in the empire.
　Surprised by that, Sulnin and Eclir, they were convinced that there was nothing they could do.
　But even after hearing about the situation, Sulnin hesitates.
　The seeds of caution certainly binds one's words and actions, but at the same time increases the resistance to fire and the magical power of fire.
　I had heard from Mireine that the benefits of fire remained the same, but there was doubt that it would be possible to give such a simple effect.
　There may be some pitfall.
　Ray shakes his head to Sulnin, who has such a question, saying, "Don't worry."

"There's no particular side effect. I hope that the seeds of warning have been in your body for a long time and you have a certain affinity for magic. Well, of course, it could be a little less effective, but it's better than a situation where you can't talk about Seto, right?

　It wasn't Sulnin... who first opened his mouth when he heard the words, but Eclir.

"I'd like to cancel it, please."
"Ecrill, is it so simple... all right?"
"Yes. Generally, safety comes first, even if the effect on fire is somewhat weakened, rather than being enchanted to die if you talk about something. And in my case, unlike Sulnin, I can't use the magic of fire. In that sense, flame resistance is a little more regrettable."

　Eclir's words bother Sulnin.
　The magic of the flames was very useful to Surnin.
　It was something I wanted to avoid, if possible, that it could be a little less powerful.
　In particular, it is safe to say that Surnin is already middle-aged, and that he has little room for improvement in his abilities even after training.
　Still... after some consideration, Surnin accepted Rey's words and decided to have him remove the seeds of warning along with Ekrill.
