978 Episode 0978



The storage of Cyclops' corpse takes less than a few minutes.
 It shouldn't take a long time to touch the corpse in the first place.
 When Ray has finished storing the body, he calls out to Mireneu, who is said to be responsible for the occasion.

"What are you going to do, Mireine? Can I go back to Gilm, or will I wait for the other faces to come back?" I suppose you're all alive because you don't have a body other than Cyclops, though you didn't see anyone before the Diets came here."

 When Ray says something out of his mouth, Mileine also stops loving Seto and nods back.

"Well, I asked everyone to go back to Gilm and let them know about this... but I think we should go back to Gilm and talk about clearing up the cyclops." No, considering the time, I think we haven't arrived at Gilm."
"What should I do? I can go back to Gilmoo first."
"...that's fine, but now we have a cyclops crowd? If anything happens, I'd love to have Ray as a trump card."

 In the sense of trump, there is also a Vihela against the five Cyclops.
 But Mileine still feels more secure with Ray, who is more familiar with spirit than with Vihela, who has just met him.
 ...though I can never say that there is no reason for seto.
 Knowing it or not, Ray turns to Vihela and opens his mouth when he hears the words of Mireine.

"I don't think there's any problem in terms of military strength, because we have Vihela." Vichela would be able to compete against that Red Cyclops."
"Red Cyclops?"

 Vichela looks at him questioningly, wondering if he cared about what Ray said.

"Oh, these cyclops are the individuals who seem to have ruled them. I don't know if it's a rare species or a high-ranking species, but it was just a tough opponent."
"It's interesting,"
"...I thought you'd say so. Well, I've already knocked it down, and I think it's better to go back to Gilm than to do it here for more information. So what shall we do?"

 At the end of the word was a question to Mirene.
 Whether you're heading for Gilm or looking for ex-combatants scattered in the woods, it's true that both can move effectively with Seto, who has the means to fly.
 Now that Ray has come this far, it doesn't matter which way, so he turns his eyes to Mileine.
 Leaving him to judge, he hesitates a little... and turns to Deetz, Beune, and Vihela, and then he opens his mouth.

"Yes. I'm sorry, but can you get Rey to go first? Seto can fly and move, so he can definitely get there ahead of the others who ran and moved. If we don't report clearly that the battle is over, there is a possibility that a punitive force will be formed."

 Ray readily nods to see if he has any particular objection to Mileine's opinion.
 In fact, if seven cyclops and rare or superior species may be near Gilm, there is a good chance of a punitive expedition.
 And it takes both money and time to assemble a punitive force, to gather adventurers, to gather supplies, and to prepare a carriage.
 If all of them had actually been knocked down, it would literally be a waste of effort.
 When Ray thinks that much, if there are still cyclops left, he's already wiped them out... he suddenly remembers the red cyclops he's knocked down, and here he opens his mouth to think of the seven dead cyclops.

"Is it really okay to report that we've beaten all the cyclops?" I first heard from Dietz that there were five cyclops. However, there are actually seven red cyclops and even seven regular cyclops. Are you sure there are other people here?"
"That's..."

 Ray's words cannot be immediately denied by Mireine.
 The same goes for others, with the sound of birds and beasts singing in the spring forest.
 The first person to break such silence was Sulnin, who was watching Eclir.

"I should explain that to the guild, too." in the form of probably annihilation And I'm curious about the hammer that the Red Cyclops had."

 The words conjure up a huge hammer in the minds of those who actually saw the red cyclops.
 The red cyclops, which are about 5m tall, don't feel small even if you hold them in your hand, as if they were made as special equipment.

"Oh, I'll get that hammer." It's a pretty troubling thing to do."
"Is it troublesome? Is it too heavy to lift or something like that.

 Ray shakes his head when asked by Sulnin to confirm the fact that he thinks otherwise.

"That hammer itself felt as if it had some consciousness. When the Red Cyclops, who were fighting against me, began to push me and decided that I couldn't turn the tables anymore, I stretched out something like a root from the hand holding the hammer to take over the consciousness of the Red Cyclops... No, I didn't show my consciousness clearly, so I guess it's right to say that I lost consciousness. It's also very difficult to fight normally because it has the ability to regenerate."

 Vihela frowns slightly when she hears Ray's explanation.

"Cyclops used magic items, so the hammer was big, wasn't it?"
"Oh, it's considerably bigger than the clubs used by ordinary cyclops."
"…I wonder who prepared the hammer and how." Honestly, I can't think of anything. Well, if you just have to prepare it, you could have an alchemist make it, but that's all you need to do, is that he's a cyclops, he's not intelligent? If you come up to him and say you're going to give him this magic item, he'll only think that he's got food."
"I had my doubts about that. I don't think you've ever happened to pick up a magic item that can be used by a cyclops of that size. -- by the way, it's this big."

 Deciding that it would be better to show Vihela, Bune and Deetz, Ray pulls out the hammer.
 The huge hammer that suddenly appears in front of them opens their eyes wide to all the people who see it once, such as Miredog, Sulnin, and Johanna.
 Among them, Sulnin screams back to himself the fastest.

"The hammer has the ability to take over the other person's consciousness!? Isn't it dangerous to throw it out without thinking?"

 Everyone takes a few steps back at Sulnin's cry.
 But Ray, without looking particularly nervous, touches the handle of the hammer and opens his mouth.

"Don't worry; there's no consciousness left in this hammer. When I tried to put this hammer in the item box, I tried to take over my consciousness, but I guess I tried to do something with magic. On the other hand, I was swallowed by my magical powers and completely lost consciousness."
"...it's possible,"

 Miller dogs and Sulnin did not know how much Ray's magical powers were, but after seeing the battle many times, they understood that it was not the usual magical powers.
 In Johanna and Dietz, you can see the scene of a fire whirlwind, the armour of the hegemonic king, and the red armour of the Flame Emperor.
 A phenomenon that is quite different from what ordinary wizards do... and that is what can be called a natural disaster.
 Of course, it would be necessary to have something like magic technology, but even more magical power would be required to cause the phenomenon.
 And it was absolutely impossible that Ray didn't have the magic.

"Well, that's why I don't have the ability to manipulate people, though it may sound a little strange to say that this hammer is a pure magic item."
"...if that story is true, it's a pretty powerful magic item, isn't it, if it's possible to generate lightning, and it's even more regenerative to the owner, it's going to be in the form of a superior compatibility of the Elk Hall of Thunder God's axe, though it's very different in terms of axe and hammer?"

 Sulnin, who was unusually a little excited, opened his mouth as if to pour cold water over his excitement.

"Well, if you just look at your ability... who can use this? That's why it's impossible for ordinary people to imitate you..."

 Once he stopped speaking, Mileine turned to Ray.Ray's usual weapon is a scythe.
 As the name suggests, it was a large sickle, with a handle of about two meters long and a blade of about one meter long, which was also a difficult weapon to use under normal circumstances.  
 No, it's hard to swing satisfactorily, let alone master it.
 Ray is using such weapons, so he looks at me wondering if I can use this magic hammer, but Ray shakes his head.
 I'm confident in my strength, and if I want to have this hammer, I think it's possible.
 But that's it.
 The hammer, which is far too large for its death size, is large enough to hold but interfere with its swing.
 Not very much, but there is no way a smaller Ray could swing around.

"I don't want to use it for a moment," Besides, I don't think it's highly compatible compared to Elk's axe. in a purely performance sense It might be better to be backward compatible in terms of the variety of abilities... but from my point of view, it's backward compatible."
"Well... I'm sure you'

 Sulnin sighs regretfully, wondering if the words of the Mileine have finally brought him back to life.

"But, Mr. Ray," If you can't use it, what did you bring?"

 When Johanna asks, caressing Seto, Ray asks, housing his hammer in a mistling.

"If you leave it there, it could be used by other monsters. I don't think it's going to work for ordinary monsters because of its size, but I'm not sure it's done with all the cyclops."
"Are you still in Cyclops?"

 Ray understood Johanna's desire to breathe.
 Originally, it should have been a punishment for a cyclops, but when I actually came to the forest, there were five, and there were red cyclops with magic items, which were considered rare or superior species. When he tried to escape, he found two new cyclops raging where the horses and carts had been placed, destroying them and killing them.
 Besides, Johanna wouldn't have a lot of fun if she was told that Cyclops was still there.

"What do you think?" But I don't think there's any way for an ordinary cyclop to act in solidarity as long as you beat that red cyclop."
"That's a problem, though. If it were a Rank C party, but if an ordinary traveler or a low-ranked adventurer were to encounter a cyclops, he would surely die."
"...when the matter is settled, I think you should report to the guild that you should look into it for the time being. Well, I'd like to get ahead of Gilmoo, but what about you guys? I have a horse."

 Ray turns his eyes to Deats.
 When the Rays left Gilm, Vichela and Dietz had brought their horses in place of their own.
 Bune rides with Vihela, so there are still two horses available now.
 and there were four of them, Mileine, Johanna, Eclil, and Sulnin.
 Of course, it's difficult for two adults to ride a horse, but there's no problem if you're not running at full speed.
 The horse we hired was a rigorously trained horse, and it was also very good.
 Ray's words cause the Mireine to whisper over what to do with each of them, and eventually they come up.

"Well, I'd like to use a horse, if possible, but I can't leave the fainting eclir like this, and it's quite hard to carry him on his back."

 That's what it turned out to be.

"Then I've left it to you. Even if Cyclops survives, Vihela will be safe."
"Huh, I hope so. I've come to the frontier, and if possible, I'd be happy if a stronger monster would show up. It's like the red Cyclops that Ray fought."

 Relieved for some reason by the same fighting frenzy, Ray heads straight to Seto.

"Well, if you're in Gilm, you won't have any trouble with your enemies. It's possible that a more powerful monster will appear in the future. ...set.'
"Grull!"

 He cried, "I've been waiting," straddling Seto's back.
 Seto purges with a will to see you again, and runs straight up into the sky, flapping his wings.
 and seeing it, Mileinu and Johanna saw off one by one regretfully.
