"Jarda?"

　Ray's voice echoes through the room.
　The presence we had called Ambrice was actually a different name.
　Not only Ray but also Elena and Marina were surprised when Grimm across the pair of oves said so.
　Among them, however, Marina quickly opens her mouth to Grimm's words.

"Well, Ambrice is the name given to us by people we encountered three hundred years ago. If that's the case, Ambris... well, it's not surprising that Jardas are appearing before that. I doubt the name hasn't been handed down."
'Daughter, you don't have to force yourself to use the name Jarda which is used by 儂. This name was originally given to you by someone you encountered, just like your lord. If this name does not exist in this day and age, we may use Ambrice.'

　Marina is surprised that Grimm suddenly responds to her muttering.
　I've seen him talk to Ray in a friendly way, but I can't believe he's treated me in such a friendly way...

"Well, is that all right.

　Marina asks Grimm, who lives far longer than herself.
　Grimm laughed again at Marina's attitude.

'Whoa, whoa, whoa. I don't care. I think you're important to Ray, too. So the Jarda... No, what's wrong with Ambris?"
"Look at this,"

　Ray moves a pair of oves, showing a sleeping Vihela, who is unconscious in bed.

"Oh?"

　It should be called ageing, but Grimm apparently knew what it was like just looking over the pair of ovens at the Vihela on the bed.
　mutter a little interesting

"I tried to knock Ambris down, and I chased him down quite a bit. Then Ambris suddenly spread and Vihela... I thought he appeared on the side of a woman sleeping in this bed, and he sank into my body like he had evolved a subhuman monster."
"Well, did the Ambris fight against Ray have the ability to evolve subhuman monsters?"

　Marina opens her mouth to Grimm's muttering, as if she had noticed something.

"Come to think of it, Mr. Grimm had just evolved a particular monster... so wasn't he evolving a subhuman monster when he was called Jarda?"

　Marina had a childlike attitude toward Dusker, but she probably couldn't have that attitude against Grimm.
　ask in a question
　Grimm nods and opens his mouth, apparently unconcerned by Marina's attitude.

'Well, I've heard of Ambris, which evolves only animal monsters, Ambris, which evolves only bird monsters, Ambris, which evolves only insect monsters.'
"Do you know Ambrice so well?"

　The Ambrice that appeared in this case was discovered for the first time in three hundred years.
　It was only natural to be confused when they were told that they knew so many kinds of Ambris.

『Well, that's not the case.』However, this is not something that he has seen and confirmed. Some of them have been told in human history, so it might be dangerous to believe everything as it is.'
"... I see,"

　For Marina, it's nothing short of a surprise that she knows many Ambris stories, even if they're biographies.
　That was something I had never hoped for, given that I could still hear information about Ambris.

(However, if you spread the information you got here, you'll find out how you know it... that's a little difficult.)

　If you inadvertently divulge the information you heard from Grimm, you could be made a criminal.
　Communicating with monsters is not so unusual in itself.
　That's because Tamer communicates with monsters to help him.
　But... the communication between them was Rich Road... and that would be a different story if Zepyle, who was called a witch, was the result of the demons of his time.
　Whatever you think of it, the reputation was too bad.
　And if anyone who has bad intentions against Marina finds out, she will happily spread her notoriety.
　Marina bought -- and is still working as a guildmaster -- some bit of resentment when she was an adventurer.
　Also, the overwhelming majority of them are the aristocrats who have first seen Marina's beauty and the president of a large trade association, who are plotting to make her his own.
　It was only natural for such men of wealth and power to want to take advantage of Marina's good looks, even though they knew that she would be ruined if she failed.
　Naturally, Marina has no intention of letting such people like her.
　That's why information about Ambris was not so easily made public.
　There is also a reason for the need for some support.
　It's not that Grimm thinks he's lying, it's simply that monsters change their behavior from place to place.
　In fact, Marina knows that Ambris had the ability to evolve Goblin and other subhuman monsters, including those three hundred years ago, but Grimm explains that some Ambris had the ability to evolve elsewhere.

"Not to mention the individual differences of Ambris,"

　Elena interrupts Marina and Grimm.

"And, Mr. Grimm," I don't know if it's fair to say that Ambrice fuses into Vihela's body... in the way Ray says it is, but that's the way things are going. Is that so?"

　Ray and Marina nod immediately after Elena's confirmation.

"Oh, I've seen both a recovery wizard and a doctor, but there's no sign of waking up, even though there's nothing wrong with my body. Almost two months have passed since I lost consciousness."
"Well... did Ambrice say Vihela or something? She must be trying to take over the woman's body. But I won't wake up because she's fighting Ambrice.'

　Grimm's words make everyone agree that...
　The prediction had been pointed out by doctors and recovery magicians.

"So the next time you wake up, you don't know whether it's Vihela or Ambris."
'Well,'
"And yet... is there any way to help Vihela?"

　I hate the fact that I have to sit quietly and watch the battle between Vichela and Ambrice.
　Elena and Marina alike nod back to Ray's words.
　Grimm laughs a little softly at the way they look... and then he opens his mouth.

'What you can do for your masters is to say that she... or Vihela? whether it be to enter into the spiritual world of the Vihela or to help it... to be honest, it's rather harsh."
"Are you strict?"
『Yes. It's a reasonable burden for you to enter into the minds of others.』 not only for those who enter, but also for those who enter."

　Grimm's words have a touch of concern for Ray.
　Ray is valuable to Grimm in many ways.
　It's the same with communicating casually with yourself, and it's the same with inheriting the magic created by the Zepail family.
　And I was able to see that the person on Ray's side was not confused or noisy when I saw him.
　Therefore, it was not recommended that people should try to get into the spiritual world of others.
　It's Grimm who said it, though, that's why we can't do it now.

(Hmm?)

　Is there any alternative plan?
　Grimm's eyes were turned to Marina.
　To be exact, they have longer ears than others.
　The ears and brown skin are proof that Marina is a dark elf.
　And when it comes to dark elves... it reminds me of what Grimm had heard before.

"Isn't it Dark Elf?"
"What? Oh, yes. though.""Then there is a world tree in your hometown?"

　Why did the word world tree come out of Grimm's mouth?
　I couldn't deny it here, though I questioned it.
　Maybe... it's true that such a feeling was in the marina.
　Grimm opens his mouth again, watching Marina do that.

"Using the power of the world tree, one can increase one's mental strength... that is, it is a great force for a woman who is now unconscious to confront Ambris."
"...does the trees of the world have such power?"

　She was a marina of bloodline who could be called a shrine maiden of the world tree, but I've never heard of such a thing.
　Perhaps it's not a complete lie, given that Grimm came out of his mouth... but I still can't believe it completely.
　You must have seen how Marina was doing. Grimm nods and opens his mouth.

'No wonder I can't believe it. But isn't it worth trying? 儂 doesn't want to send Ray to a place like the spiritual world if possible. and yet I think it is no use telling a lie here.''

　Grimm's words as he looked at Ray on the paired oven did not sound like he was lying to Marina.
　It was the same for Elena, who could only silently look at the Grimm's face.
　the silence between Grimm and Marina
　It was Ray's word that broke it.

"Marina's home world tree had a little problem just a few months ago. When I think about it, I don't want to make you push yourself too hard."
"But that's the shortest way to get her consciousness back, as far as 儂 knows?"
"...even if you say so,"

　Ray turns his eyes to Marina, who is beside him.
　The marina was troubled with beautiful, well-shaped eyebrows.
　Marina is also a dark elf, a descendant of the world tree.
　That being the case, I still have a strong attachment to the world tree even now when I am not in the village.
　The world tree has definitely been weakened by the uproar that just broke out this spring.
　Marina, to be honest, couldn't judge if she could use the help of the world tree.

"Is there any other way, Mr. Grimm?"

　If possible, I hope there is another way.
　Marina wishes so, but Grimm shakes the skeleton's face in the pair of oves.

"Of course, if you ask me if I have any idea of anything else, I'll answer. But will you have the heart of a dragon, the tears of a Phoenix, and the healing tail of a nine-tailed fox?"
"That's..."

　All that Grimm has just said is very rare... that's the sort of thing in legends and heroic tales.
　It's not very much, but you can't find it right away.
　What's more, all of the monsters that Grimm has just mentioned are rank S monsters.
　I'm not the kind of person you can easily knock down with the intention of knocking it down.

"A dragon?"

　It was Elena who muttered a little anxious expression.
　It's probably because he's worried that his errand, Yero, is a child of a black dragon.
　Grimm's gaze is directed at Elena across the pair of oves, perhaps curious about her behavior.

"Any idea of dragons?"
"The messenger I created by dragon language magic is the child of a black dragon."
"Well, unfortunately, it is not the Gent Dragon that needs it, but the heart of a dragon that has lived for many years. It's not going to help me this time if I'm a messenger just born out-of-the-box errand."

　Grimm's words give Elena a sigh of relief.
　Even in his capacity as an errand boy... or perhaps that's why he was so important to Elena.

(and I'm sure he wouldn't be pleased if Vichela's heart brought him to his senses.)

　On the contrary, it was easy for Ray to imagine that he would be furious.

"Is there anything else? Another monster's heart or magical stone..."

　When Ray chills down at the thought of a furious Vihela, he asks Grimm to shake off the idea.

"Well, that's right. The effect is not as dramatic as the one I mentioned earlier, but with the heart of Rank S Monster, you can manage it with a little help from 儂.

　That's what they say, so why don't we have Grimm do it from the beginning, but Grimm is a monster even when we talk like this?
　Even as a former human being, there is no way we can force Grimm to think that he is now undead.
　At any rate, it is said that what passed Ray's mind when he was called Rank S Monster is a rare species of Rank A Monster, which is considered to be equivalent to Rank S.
　But of course, I can't do anything to sacrifice to Seto.

(And... anything else... Huh? Rank S? Wait, by any chance...)

　Glancing around Grimm and Elena in turn, Ray opens his mouth.

"Silver Lion".
