Worried about the adventurer running towards the guild, Ray and Vichela head straight to the guild with Seto.
　Ray's departure to the guild, however, was as originally planned to report to Marina that he had returned from Gorsuch, Sollein.
　I was ambushed by Vihela on my way to the guild, so it took more time...

"But what happened? I hope it's a strong monster."

　You must be imagining a battle against a strong enemy. It's appropriate to call the atmosphere of Vihela, which has moist eyes, seductive.
　Ray had never seen anyone more than a marina in terms of a woman's glamour, but it was a different kind of marina... but it still gave rise to something more than a man's glamour.
　Men walking around...women, on rare occasions, swallow their saliva at the atmosphere that can be described as a kind of obscenity emanating from Vihela's body.
　You must have noticed that kind of behavior. Ray breathes out and then opens his mouth.

"Vihela, it's leaking... something is leaking."
"... Is it leaking?"

　Vichela, who comes back to life with such words, looks around in a hurry.
　Then, for some reason, there are many people who look at themselves, and their cheeks... on the contrary, their faces are red.
　Under normal circumstances, you'd be flustered to see what happened.
　But Vihela smiles at her with a big smile.
　All such men and women can do is look away in silence.

"Well, let's go," That's how many adventurers are in afloat. There is no doubt that a powerful monster has come out."
"All right,"

　With Vihela telling him so without a hitch, and Sett, who leaned slightly, asking, "What's the matter?" ... Ray was heading to the guild.





　In the guild, Ray and Vihela saw an adventurer standing in front of the counter with a pale face.
　There's no doubt that it's the person Ray and Vichela saw earlier, and Vichela naturally goes straight to the counter.
　Kenny soon notices such a Vihela approaching.
　I noticed Ray on Vihela's side, to be exact.

"Oh, Ray! I heard you went to Solrain, but you're back!"

　As Kenny waves, Ray nods back when he arrives at the counter.

"Oh, just now," And when I wanted to let Marina know about it, she saw the man there running in a different color and followed him."

　The man Ray's gaze... Hester is surprised.
　Living in Gillum, Hester naturally knew Ray's name and had seen him from afar many times.
　But I've never spoken to him.
　For those in business -- especially food -- they were very good customers who shopped at random, but when they became adventurers, the story is different.
　When Ray first came to Gillum, many of them took it easy on him because of his appearance, but most of them had a hard time.
　Hester also had experience trying to get involved with Ray at first, so he still has a bad feeling about it.
　I didn't do anything because I was actually stopped by an adventurer I knew, and I only recognized that Ray had seen my face somewhere before.
　Kenny looks a little disappointed at Ray's words.
　Didn't you come to see me…?
　And Kenny's eyes were turned to Vihela, who was beside Ray and excited about fighting against the strong.
　Even from the point of view of Kenny, who brags about his charms, he is not likely to win.
　Furthermore, it was Marina who came to see Ray, who, again, had no chance of winning because of her feminine charm.
　Then Kenny, shocked, tried to open his mouth with a little regret...

"Mr. Ray, at the right time!"

　When Lenora, who was talking to her boss inside the counter, approaches Ray, she looks as if she was saved from the bottom of her heart.

"What's wrong with you? ... Well, I can predict it somehow."

　Returning his words to Lenora, Ray turns to Hester again.
　Understanding the meaning of his gaze, Hester tries to take a step back... to find Ray's strength very dependable if he can do something about the goblins who killed his party members.

(Yes)

　A touch of admiration flashed over Vihela's lips at the sight of such a Hester.
　He looked frightened when he first saw Ray, but now he stomped down with determination in his eyes.
　In Vihela's eyes, it is only natural that she should be judged to have something to see.
　It was the same with Ray.
　At first I looked at myself with awe and fear, but now I look at myself with a firm will.
　Maybe it's not that I'm not afraid of myself, but maybe it's because there's something more than that that that's why I don't back down.
　Feeling unexpectedly fond of the man named Hester, Ray's gaze turns to Lenora.

"So, should I ask Lenora what happened?"
"Yes. Actually, Mr. Hester was attacked by a group of goblins."

　At this point, Ray's desire for a strong enemy in Vihela quickly withers away.
　How can you satisfy your desire for a strong opponent with a goblin?
　Reflecting on Vichela's behavior, Ray urges Lenora to move on.

"I don't think the adventurer in Gillum could do anything like goblin,"
"Yes, Mr. Hester told me that there were nearly a hundred goblins. And he seemed to have left so well that he didn't think it was a goblin."
"…I see. If you are leading such a goblin, is it a goblin leader?"

　When Ray asks, recalling what he reads in the Monster Book, Lenora nods with a difficult face.

"Perhaps it should be it said.The goblin leader is not smart, to be honest. If I should not give up the game I am chasing just because I approach the road and see the adventurer."

　I wonder if the reason why I'm hesitating is because I'm concerned about the goblin leader who leads the goblin herd and the convenience of leaving.

"And you want me to knock it down?"

　I came back when I was talking to Kenny, so there was a judgment that maybe it was.
　And, as expected, Lenora nods apologetically.

"Yes, I don't mind if it's an investigation, but with Mr. Ray's help I can defeat him without any problems. Of course, it is a request for nomination, so we will prepare the reward with some color. what do you think?"

　Based on the information I have now, I have some doubts about it, but it's not as urgent.
　Nevertheless, the reason why I'm asking Ray for the nomination in the form of a guild is probably because he's worried about his poor judgment for the Goblin leader race.

"What are you going to do? I don't want to."

　The battle against a strong opponent was quickly lost in Vichela's words because he had become a goblin leader, but Ray thought a little... nods back.

"What? Ray, are you going to take this request?"

　Kenny's lips, who was listening nearby, screamed with surprise.
　I thought he would turn down the offer out of annoyance because it was definitely a request made to goblin.
　And I was thinking of inviting Ray out for dinner after work, but he missed his aim completely.
　Ray was asked to do so largely because he had not yet absorbed the goblin leader's magic stone, let alone the goblin.
　I had learned skills on rare and rare goblin magical stones before, so I had the feeling that even in the goblin, rare and superior species might be able to learn skills.

(And I've heard that the goblin leader is smarter than the average guy. If this is the case, it is well conceivable that it is a rare species of goblin leader. It's impossible to miss this.)

　If the goblin leader may be a rare species, there is no way to miss it here.

"Oh, I'm kind of interested in being a goblin leader." Most importantly, I don't have the goblin leader's magic stone yet."Hester, hearing Ray return words to Kenny, recalls...

(I remember hearing that you have a hobby of collecting magical stones.) That's why... ...but it's never bad for me. if so!)

　Hester, who is afraid that he might be able to take revenge on the party, speaks vigorously.

"Well, Mr. Ray. Would you take me with you to defeat the Goblin leader, though I have been once attacked by a herd which I think he is leading, and I think it would be a good way to guide you?"
"Huh? Are you serious? You just ran for your life, right? Are you going to go again?"
"Of course! I don't have time to rest leisurely until I avenge everyone!"

　Hester desperately insists on her, but Ray is at a loss about how to treat him.
　If Vihela was going, Ray would travel with Seto on the ground, so there was no problem.
　But considering Vihela was discouraged by the fact that she was a goblin, Ray was going to fly in a set.
　Given the speed of movement, it's natural that it's nothing compared to moving on the ground.
　But here Hester himself joins the Goblin leader's request to subdue him, and Ray has to move on the ground.
　A normal goblin would have no problem, but this time it's against a goblin leader who seems oddly smart.
　If we had moved slowly on the ground, there was a good chance that they would disappear somewhere.
　That being the case, Ray shakes his head at Hester, thinking that he would like to put Seto's mobility first if possible.

"No, I'm sorry, but if you keep up with your speed of movement, you could miss the goblin leader. I'll let you go alone this time."
"Wait, Ray! Please! This is right! Please take me to this request! No reward, I'll give you all the materials you want! So please!"

　Hester bowed squarely to Ray.
　The word "doza" or culture does not exist in this Elgin, but if it had, I would have even kneeled down.

(No, isn't it surprising that the area around Takum is wider?)

　Ray suddenly remembered a magician from the same earth as Zepyle, but now the question was how to turn down Hester's words, bowing deeply in front of him.
　It's not that Ray doesn't understand his desire to avenge.
　Still, there is no doubt that working with Hester could escape the Goblin leader.
　They are smarter than ordinary goblin leaders, and they have decided that it is dangerous to keep up with them as they chase them near the road.
　Having missed Hester, I'm sure he wouldn't have anticipated a counterattack, and that would naturally change his residence from where he is.
　We need to find out where the goblin leader lurks and knock him down before taking such action.
　Ray had no intention of missing a goblin leader... or possibly a rare species.

"...I'm sorry, but if you can keep up with Sett's speed, I'm sorry, but I'm sorry to say that I'm not going to have a moment to spare." It's impossible to follow Seto on horseback. That would have been a different story if it were a Dragon Knight who manipulated the Weiburn."
"Well... please! Please! Let me go with you! I want to avenge everyone!"

　Hester begs Ray to come with him somehow.
　Ray also knows Hester's feelings, so he doesn't know what to say.
　But he said no again, saying that he would not be able to take Hester with him... suddenly the movement stopped.
　It was a scene that passed Ray's mind.
　I understand that it's not impossible, so I can grant Hester's request.
　Thinking so, Ray opens his mouth to Hester, who is looking at him seriously.

"Really... you want to avenge your comrades no matter what?"

　Hester immediately nodded to Ray's words before he could think of anything to grant his request.
