"I want to recruit people to dismantle Sandlizzard Man."

　After an early lunch with Lubrand at the lord's house, Ray had asked the guild to recruit personnel to dismantle the sand lizard.
　It's a receptionist who deals with Ray.
　... the receptionist Ray had taken care of when he first came to the guild, and eventually he was in charge of Ray.
　Although he was in charge of being pushed by people around him, he learned that Ray was not as he was rumored to be, and now he is able to communicate with Ray easily, albeit only slightly.m.
　When Ray first came to the guild, he apparently decided to leave the matter alone.
　In addition, he was in charge of Ray and received special treatment, and what pleased the receptionist was that he was afraid of Ray and was approached less frequently.
　The Guild's receptionist is basically chosen for her good looks.
　The lady in charge of Ray was a man who was not very well treated, but not very well, as adventurers would naturally talk to her.
　This has caused some trouble, and in that sense, I'm even grateful to Ray for the fact that no other adventurers have approached me.

"Yes, how many?"
"More than ten,"
"... oh, come to think of it, I knocked down such a sand lizard when I saved the dusty nails." As a guild, I'm grateful for the help of the newcomers I'm looking forward to."

　More than a dozen sand lizard men must have reminded him of Howl's dusty claws. The receptionist bowed deeply.

"No, I was happy to be able to defeat an unknown monster, and I don't have to worry about it that much."
"That's not true! As I said, dusty nails are a promising newcomer in Gorsuch."

　Really? Ray nods his head.
　As I said earlier, the hopeful newcomer wondered if Zarroost had taken him to guard Auguste.
　Think so, shake your head right away.

(Isn't it possible that they are the only newcomers I'm looking forward to? and I took him with me who wanted to come to the bodyguard, and some of them would have hated being hired by August to look out for Dallidra and Elima.)

　In that sense, Ray writes down the requisite information on the request given to him by the receptionist, thinking that there were only so many people who wanted to be escorted by Zarroost.
　Ray asks the receptionist again when he thinks about the work, the reward, and...

"I've heard that when you dismantle Gorsuch, you rent a storehouse for it. What happens?"
"Well, Mr. Ray can prepare it himself, or we can lend you a guild warehouse if you pay extra. Just...

　an obfuscating receptionist
　Ray's good relationship with Auguste is already well known.
　If that happens, there is a high possibility that those who don't want to be looked at by Dharidra or Erema will not rent the warehouse for various reasons.
　Of course, some of them were Augustists, so it wasn't that I couldn't borrow them for sure...

"Well, let me ask you, if there is anyone who can lend it to Ray, who is on good terms with Auguste... it's a little expensive, but I think we should borrow it from the guild."

　I know the Guild warehouse because Ray used it to dismantle sand serpents.
　Zarroost, who rented the facility, boasted that it was the best in terms of enhancing the necessary functions.

(Well, I guess it's a guild of honor.)

　It's adventurers who dismantle monsters, and it's guilds who buy materials and magical stones that have been ripped off there.
　That being the case, Ray could understand that a guild would be embarrassed if it didn't have sufficient facilities.

"Well, let me do so,"

　In fact, the warehouse he used previously was able to use without any problems, and there was no problem for Ray, who was not in need of money even though it was a little expensive.
　Especially if you sell the materials you got from the Sandlizzardman demolition I requested, you will be able to pay for them right away.

"Yes, I see. Let's see... That's pretty much all right. Anything else?"

　At the receptionist's words, Zaroust's face comes to Ray's mind.
　In the dismantling of the sand serpent, no one would let the material slip away because Zarroost was on guard, but this time we're going to hire an unknown adventurer.
　If you didn't want to take the material with you, Ray might just have to keep an eye on it, but he also wanted to use the time effectively.
　No, I don't think there's any point in having Ray there because I'm going to ask him to do it.

"If possible, I'd like you to hire an adventurer to whom the guild can trust. Or a guild staff."
"All right. I don't usually go this far, but when there are more than 10 sand lizard men, it's no use worrying about Ray."
"What?"

　Ray exclaims unexpectedly at the receptionist's words.
　A Sandlizzardman is not a very strong opponent in Rey's experience.
　That seemed to me to be the enemy of some strength.

(Well, Lizardman works together, so that's what I'm talking about... No, that's not it. Come to think of it, no adventurer in Gorsuch could be so strong in principle. ...I see, that's why.)

　It is a subordinate country to the Kingdom of Mileana, and in addition, most of the subordinate countries are deserts, so its national power is very low compared to its neighboring countries.
　Naturally, the population will be small and the number of powerful adventurers will be small.

"Mr. Ray?"

　The receptionist glances mysteriously at Ray, who suddenly utters a strange voice.
　But Ray shakes his head and then opens his mouth.

"I don't know if it will work or not, but please make it clear that I will take a firm stance if someone embezzled the material."
"But you're determined...?"

　Knowing Ray's ability, the receptionist's expression twitches.
　Nevertheless, kicking the request here means that adventurers who embezzled the material may not be able to use it at a later date, so we will add it firmly to the request.
　An adventurer nicknamed crimson is the client of the demolition request, and if he embezzled the material, he will behave accordingly.
　...some adventurers listening to Ray and the receptionist twitch their cheeks where it means.
　a few days after Ray came to Gorsuch There was a lot of information about how powerful Ray was in the last few days.
　Adventurers who guarded August with Zarroost, adventurers who saw Ray's entangled adventurers in the guild beaten up easily, and reports of howl and other groups of sand lizardmen killed all by themselves.
　It's clear from the stories of those people how good Ray is.
　Nor did the skilled adventurers understand Ray's strength, though the guilds did not know.
　Still, some people don't know much about Ray because he's only been in Gorsuch for a few days.
　Such people could provoke Ray's anger... that's where the receptionist was concerned.

(If anyone is willing to accept this request, you'd better keep an eye on who you are. It's not something that we can refuse, but we can inform trustworthy people to be careful.)

　If an adventurer of Rank E receives a request of Rank B, he or she can refuse the order as the guild's authority.
　However, in this case, since it is the dismantling of the Sandlizzard Man, the rank required to receive requests is not high at all.
　In order to reject this under the guild's authority, you'll have to be the one who's had a lot of trouble...
　To prevent the embezzlement of others, it was still necessary to rely on someone you could trust.

"Well, with this,"
"Yes, so what if there are many applicants?"
"Well, yes," I'll leave that up to the guild. I wish the queer would play there."
"Thank you very much. Then, first of all, please come to the guild tomorrow. If there is no one to accept my request, it will be the day after tomorrow."
"Please,"

　Leaving the receptionist with a deep bow on the spot, Ray leaves the guild.
　And in the guild after Ray's disappearance, adventurers were concentrating on Ray's request.
　The reason is that the reward was slightly higher than the usual request.
　adventurers waiting to be posted on the request board
　What's even more fortunate for adventurers is that this is the day.Many adventurers are now in the middle of their work, and those in the guild now are those who were planning to take the day off, or for some reason could not come to the guild in the morning.
　Or some people were going to dine in bars.
　That's why Ray's requests are far from competitive.
　In other words, it's a great opportunity to make a lot of money by taking it easy.
　The adventurers waited for the moment with keen eyes as if they were after their prey.






　Ray had presented the adventurers he had left in the guild with sparks of conflict, but when he returned to August's house, there were two figures in front of him.
　One was Gunther, the gatekeeper, and the other was Cathy, August'
　For some reason Kathy, who would have always been in the house, was out of the house.
　Then, as soon as he sees Ray and Sett, he starts running.

"You're late! I thought you'd be back by lunch, but don't worry me. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . ."

　Ray soon realized that Kathy was yelling at her, but still worried about herself.
　That's why Ray bows down honestly.

"I'm sorry, but I've been invited to the lord's house.
"What... Uh, were you okay? Did you do nothing?"
"Oh, that's all right," We just had a little lunch together."
"... lunch with the Earl of Salmouth? ...Really?"

　Kathy mutters incredulously.
　Maybe it's because he knows that Liubrand is on good terms with Daridra, who is at odds with her husband Augusto.
　That's why you might think that Ray might have done something about it as a meal.
　But Ray nods back to Kathy, who worries about it.

"Look, Kathy, I told you you were too worried?"
"But Gunther..."

　When Ray tells him he's OK, he still doesn't seem to be convinced, and Kathy tries to argue with Gunter.
　Setho chants at Kathy, who has been on Ray's side waiting to see what happens.

"Glu?"

　It's all right. Cathy was momentarily surprised at Seto's expression...not sure why that was the case, but it still had the effect of calming her down.

"Well, yes," I guess it's all right because Seto says he's all right? Welcome home, Ray, Seto. So you didn't end up in a guild today?"
"No, I could go. I have made a proper request. If I go to the guild tomorrow morning, I think there will be an adventurer waiting for me to dismantle the sand lizard."
"I see. That's good. --but then you're going to the guild again to-morrow?"
"That's what happens,"
"Yes..."

　Ray's words make Kathy look a little sad.
　Having enjoyed taking care of Ray, he must have been disappointed to hear that he would head back to the guild tomorrow.
　Feeling a little uncomfortable with Kathy's appearance, Ray opens his mouth as if to break his silence.

"If there's still lunch left, I want to eat it."
"...what? Didn't you have dinner with the Earl of Salmouth?"
"It's been a long time since I ate it, and I'm a little hungry."
"...yes. Then I'll get it ready right away, so please come in."

　Saying so, Ray follows Cathy into the house.
　Seto and Ray go straight to the stable without saying anything.
　Thus Ray managed to mislead the story.
