The aerowing, whose head had been destroyed, did not make much noise, contrary to its appearance.
　Doubtful of such a situation, Ray takes the death size out of Mistilling and grabs it again into an empty hand.
　I can't use the skill of flying like a sword, but it was still purely because the death size was easy to use as a weapon.
　...the death size of a scythe is usually a tricky weapon, but Ray approaches the aerowing which falls to the ground, showing that such common sense is irrelevant.
　It's a headless aerowing, but it's still fully usable as a material.
　And above all, it showed that the magical stone Ray wanted was safe as long as the torso was safe.

(Well, we've all knocked it down, so we'll need to distribute the material... no way, we'll suddenly meet monsters in the woods... no, there's an oak.)

　Ray's gaze at Aerowing's corpse destroyed Aerowing's head in a power crash... no, it's more appropriate to describe it as wiped out.
　Having already landed on the ground, Sett rubbed his right forefoot on the ground, dropping the blood, flesh and brain of the aerowing.

"Ray, I wonder if you can put that aerowing in an item box. Anyway, let's prioritize heading to the village now."

　Marina's voice from the carriage nods, and Ray gently reaches for Aerowing's corpse.
　The next moment the aerowing disappears as if nothing had happened there.

"What? What's that? The monster disappeared!"

　A short distance away, Jusla, who had no chance of fighting, exclaims in surprise.

(You were hardly surprised by Seto's presence, but were you surprised by Mistilling?)

　When Jusla first saw Seto, she was amazed.
　Still, it's safe to say that it was overwhelmingly small for those who saw Seto for the first time, just like Audovan.
　...but in the case of Audovan, he was more cautious about Ray than Seto, which was why he was not surprised to see him.

"I'm sorry to say that you're surprised, but you'd better look at Marina."
"What? Oh, sorry, Marina!"

　All but Ray and Jusla have already returned to the carriage, and Marina is opening the carriage door and waiting for them to come.
　Seeing it, Jusla hurriedly sees him back to the carriage, and Ray also follows him.
　But on the way, I suddenly felt my gaze and stopped.

"...just in case?"

　I look around, but no one is looking at me.

(Maybe it's just my imagination)

　if you mutter the same words again in private walk straight toward the carriage
　You think it's just your imagination, but you're probably not.
　Still, I didn't look around here because I could be attacked again by monsters while I was here.
　Of course Ray doesn't mind being attacked by an unknown monster, but Ray isn't the only one here.
　What's more, the Rays have come this time to the Dark Elf Forest to treat the world tree.
　And if you make a bad attack with magic here and are told that it will be a burden to the world tree if it is removed, you cannot say that you want to stay here knowing that.

"Ray?"

　Reverting to Marina's words, she immediately heads towards the carriage and gets into it.
　In the end, Ray couldn't find out who was staring at him.





"Aero wing?" There's another annoying monster out there."

　Mumbling so is Vihela, who has little means of attack against flying monsters.
　As it is said, there is a tentative way to attack.
　But it's a way to pick up nearby stones and throw them, not to satisfy Vihela's desire to fight.
　Vihela's hope is to engage in close combat if possible.

"Well, wasn't that okay? It prevented Aerowing from attacking Ray."

　Marina mutters in a relaxed atmosphere.
　While Vichela is a little unhappy with Marina's words, she reaches for tea on the table without further comment.
　This tea was not brewed by Elena, but by Jusla.
　Everyone here is surprised that Jusla can make tea... even Audovan is surprised, but it is true that Jusla's tea tastes better than Elena's... and Elena carries it to her mouth with a little vexation.
　Near Elena, Ray asks Marina, reaching for bread baked with sweet and sour nuts.

"Is it a barrier? How long does it take to get to where it is?"
"Well, I can't say anything about it because there might be monsters coming out like there is now... if there's nothing special like this, it'll take about three hours."
"It's not fun to see monsters coming out, but I don't think I can forgive aerowing."

　Marina and Audovan nod to Jusla's words.

Aerowing is good as a raw material, but it's also pretty good as a pure meat. When I fought before, I was a dungeon, so I didn't have to move freely, but without Bune, I would have let him go."

　Vihela's pride was expressed in not winning but letting go, but objectively it was also true.
　Everyone here understands that Vihela has that much ability.
　Freshly joined Jusla, who camped before returning to the forest, sees Vihela in mock warfare and understands how powerful she is.
　That's not why Vihela was so strong, but I understood that she was speaking purely based on her understanding of her own abilities.

"Yes!"

　Bune then pulls out the long hand that he used to play against the aerowing, bends the edge of his lips a little and exclaims proudly.

"Bune's methods of attack are very useful, aren' Honestly, I envy you. Hey, Bune. If you don't mind, will you show me how to use the long hand next time?"
"Yes,"

　Bune shakes his head at Audovan, who offers such an inviting remark.
　Just as Audovan and Jusla understood Vihela's abilities in the past days, Bune also understood what he called Audovan's propensity.
　Of course, s*xuality doesn't mean a real crisis of chastity.
　Audovan's preference was to enjoy looking at and touching beautiful women and girls, and not to like women in their romantic ways...
　At the very least, this party recognizes it.
　Elena opens her mouth to take the initiative, perhaps sensing something fishy.

"How do you divide the aerowing? I don't need it, but..."
"I don't need any material, so I want some magical stones and... meat if possible." but as far as meat is concerned, it is concerned."

　The first one to speak out was, of course, Ray.
　Whether you use it for death size or feed it to Seto, I definitely wanted an unknown monster magical stone.
　As for meat, if it's delicious, I have a strong desire to try it.

"I don't care, though, because I know Ray is collecting magical stones."
"Well, I don't have any particular problem either."

　When Marina and Vihela nod their heads, others nod their heads back to see if they had been any particular objection.
　Bune hesitated a little, but eventually made the decision to hand over the talc to Ray.
　I was determined that it would be a problem if I could not eat the delicious food that Ray could give me.

"Well, meat, then... to be honest, there's not much meat to be had than the size."

　Marina breathed out her words, but they were never wrong.
　The aerowing itself is large, but it is large, including the wings.
　If you don't put that wing in, it'll be half the size... no, about a third of the size will be reduced.
　If that happens, of course there will be less to eat.

"Why don't you use it when we eat together instead of leaving it to someone else?"

　Everyone nods to Jusla's words and Ray decides where the meat is going.
　After that, the aerowing material...especially the feathers that covered the body seem to be useful for making futons and clothes, and the combination of feathers adds a certain amount of heat.
　Marina was the one who wanted the feathers the most, and her rival Vihela showed no sign of stepping back.
　Audovan and Jusla also wanted feathers, but in the end Elena did not show any sign of wanting them, and Bune seemed to want them faintly, but she ate the dried fruit of the table, perhaps determined that it was impossible to get between Marina and Vihela."What does Vihela use aerowing feathers for when she is dressed like that?"
"Oh, where are you going to use that marina?"

　The way we keep each other in check may be called a woman's fight.
　Ray suddenly thinks about it, but when he gets involved in it, he decides that there will be a lot of trouble and talks to Elena.

"The horse pulling this carriage is quite a big one, but it looks like it's going to stomp a monster to death." I've said that before."
"Huh? Oh, it's a horse I've trained very well since I was little. Horses are inherently very timid animals."

　Few, if any, will be satisfied to see the horse pulling this carriage. . . . No, it won't be.
　The horse towing this carriage is so large that it looks as if it were a deadly look.
　If you're a low-ranked monster, you've got enough power to trample it down with your hoof.

"Well, I know what Ray is thinking, but there's something pretty about him."
"...are you?"
"Oh, Arra is mainly in charge of the care, but sometimes I help. At that time they are very quiet, and I wouldn't say they are as gentle as Seto or Yellow, but they are spoiled in their own way."

　A horse towing a carriage past Ray's mind.
　It would be more appropriate to describe it as another creature resembling a horse than a horse. I couldn't imagine being spoiled by Elena in that way.

"Huh? I can't imagine it, apparently. Well, I could imagine it because he looks the same to others. But, yes. Ray, who has a presence called Seto, may be able to get along with themselves. Would you like to try it next time.
"Well, it seems a little interesting,"

　It wasn't until Elgin that Ray got involved with the creature Horsema.
　The two horses currently towing Ray's carriage were special in many ways.
　I've seen many other trained horses.
　However, compared to these horses, the two leading the carriage seemed to be quite different.
　You must have understood Ray's enthusiasm. Elena smiles happily.
　I was very... yes, very happy that someone I liked would like the same thing as me.
　It was an unexpected moment of happiness, but it doesn't last long.

"Oh, Elena," You look very happy. Did something good happen while I was talking to Marina?"

　Vichela spoke to Elena with a smile...

"Hmmm ... hey, Ray. Did something good happen to me with Mr. Elena? It has little to do with me, but I'm a little concerned about the creation of such an atmosphere in the same carriage."

　Marina calls out to Ray, emphasizing a deep valley in her chest.
　Marina's appearance stops even Vihela, who was about to flock to Elena.

"A little Marina," Why are you approaching Ray? Don't tempt me."
"Yes. Aren't you a little bit more modest about marina?"

　Elena and Vihela in unimaginably close harmony until a few seconds ago.
　Marina disguises their pursuit with a relaxed smile on her face.
