Marina, who had spoken to the guildmaster, spoke to the receptionist... and was soon led to the guildmaster's office.
　Naturally, some guild officials knew Marina, who advised her.
　Therefore, without any particular waiting, Marina disappears deep into the guild.
　The Reyes came to the guild with Marina to keep her from being entangled in strange partners.
　That being the case, you don't have to act together from here on out, but wait for the marina in the bar next to the guild with Johanna and others.
　...although of course I ordered a lot of food.
　Ray, Elena, Arra, Elk. And Johanna and her companions.
　As long as there are so many people, one table is not enough, and Ray, Elena and Johanna sit at one table while the others sit near Ray's to deal with those who are trying to eavesdrop on him.
　Those in the bar were naturally paying attention to the laymen, but Elk and others kept them in check and kept them from eavesdropping.

"And why are they here after all?"

　As she eats boiled boar meat and vegetable sandwiches, Johanna opens her mouth with a slightly serious look on her face.

"Well, I heard that dungeon has rare and effective parts..."
"Position? Why... No, Vihela?"
"Yes,"

　Johanna immediately nods back to Ray's words.
　Seeing Johanna's condition, Ray understood it at once.
　Johannas, who now belong to the Kingdom of Milliana, were originally born and raised in the Empire of Bestia.
　Moreover, he also works with Vihela during civil wars.
　Vichela was originally very popular within the Empire of Bestia, and many Johanna felt a strong longing for Vichela.
　It was natural for some to want to do something about it when they found out that Vichela was unconscious about Ambris.
　Johanna and others then look for ways to bring Vihela back to consciousness.
　First of all, it was impossible for us to use magic...
　Some of the migrants to Gilm could use simple magic, but Ray wouldn't have had such a hard time if such magic could bring Vichela back to consciousness.
　He tries to go underneath the person who can use recovery magic and to have the alchemist create a part to regain consciousness, but Ray has already hit the spot and is turned down when he hears Vihela's story.
　I've thought of a lot of other things, but naturally Johanna and others have already tried something like Ray and Marina.
　And the last thing left was...

"A magic item that you can get at a dungeon".
"Yes,"

　At the end of the explanation, Ray concludes, and Johanna nods easily.
　In dungeons, you can sometimes find magic items and portions that are not normally thought of.
　For example, Arla's Power Ax, glaring around at a distant table, was also found in the dungeon.
　If so, it is not impossible to find a very effective part.
　Of course, when asked if the object was really available, I had to say that the possibility was very small.
　Still, that was the only thing Johanna could do for Vihela.
　So for about a month Johanna and others had been coming to this dungeon for a portion.
　However, the reason it was done is probably because the preparations for the winter have already been completed.
　That's why I was able to look for a part that would bring Vihela back to consciousness with this dungeon.
　Also, if you dive into the dungeon, you will naturally encounter monsters, and you will be able to obtain materials depending on the demagogue, as well as the location of the proof of subjugation.
　Even if you couldn't get the portions, you could buy them, so it wasn't like you didn't make any money.

"The other day, Lizardman had a pretty good halbard. Well, I sold it because nobody could use it."

　Johanna says with a smile.
　It probably sold at a very high price. Others were smiling happily, too.

"... I see,"
"Why did Ray and his friends come to this dungeon? Are you looking for portions like us?"

　Johanna's tone of voice, which she asked, seemed determined to be so.
　Having fought through that civil war together, I understand the sentiment Vichela is directing towards Ray.
　That's why I thought that the reason I came here was to bring Vichela back to consciousness... that's what I was asking.
　But Ray shakes his head at Johanna's words.

"What?"

　Johanna wonders back, wondering if she could understand Ray's behavior.
　It's only natural that the Reys came here because they thought it was for the sake of the potions, just like themselves.
　I asked him just in case, but it was more of a confirmation.
　In response to such a question, it's only natural to question it, since it was a negative action to return.
　A little... a little bit really, but Johanna's gaze on Ray becomes severe.

"Isn't it possible that you're just here to earn money.
"Well,"

　I readily agree with Johanna's question.
　Johanna, who knows the relationship between Ray and Vihela, looks bewildered this time.

"Well, so what did Ray end up here for?"
"Of course, it's to bring Vihela back to consciousness."
"No, because..."

　Johanna muttering completely incomprehensible.
　Elk, watching Johanna's condition, opens his mouth a little dumbfounded.

"Ray, why don't you leave it like that? She doesn't understand what you're talking about."
"Oops..."

　Johanna wanted to argue against calling her daughter, but if it was Elk, she could not complain.
　Johanna has only been in Gilm for a year or so, but of course I know the face and name of Elk, a well-known Rank A adventurer in Gilm.
　As a newcomer, I can't say anything about myself, and I'm reluctant to say anything to him.
　...though I might have bitten you if the subject was about Seto, not about myself.
　Take a sip or two of the ale on the table to calm down a little.
　Then, when she calms down, Johanna can predict what Ray wants to say... and her expression is astonishing.

"By any chance, have you found any other way to bring Vichela back to consciousness?"
"Yes. ... in a way that has many problems." That's what I was talking about with Marina."

　Johanna recalls that Marina had earlier told Ray to speak.
　Swallowing saliva instead of ale, Johanna turns a serious look at Ray.

"Tell me," How can we bring Vichela back to consciousness?"

　At Johanna's words, Ray looks around.
　Rey, who sees Johanna's companions as a barrier to them, eventually opens his mouth.

"One of my acquaintances is Undead... Rich Road." If it uses Rank S Monster's heart, it will bring Vihela back to consciousness as soon as possible."
"...what?"

　He probably couldn't understand what Ray said.
　I don't know what you said.
　That's how Johanna looks back at Ray.

"Well, Mr. Ray, what do you mean?"
"I suppose,"

　It was Elk who agreed to Ray's words.
　I nodded as if I understood Johanna's feelings before opening my mouth.

"I understand your daughter's feelings, but what she says is true. I haven't seen the Rich Road yet.""Rich Road... What? Oh, Rank S Monster, so in this dungeon?"

　Johanna was surprised to hear that she knew Rich Road, but she still uses her brain to understand why Rey and others came to this dungeon.
　You don't have to come to the dungeon separately if you're going to get treatment from Rich Road.
　That's all I need to do for you to be treated in some obscure forest.
　But if you need the heart of a Rank S monster, that's not the kind of rare monster around there.
　But there is a silver lion in this dungeon.
　There can definitely be no better place in terms of getting a Rank S monster's heart.

"So, what should we do? Well, I don't know what to say to Ray, but in our case, the person who is a Rank S monster is..."

　Johanna mutters sadly, whether she thinks it's pathetic.
　I really want to do anything for Vihela.
　But Johanna herself knew she wasn't good enough to fight Rank S monsters.
　Johanna muttering vexingly
　Johanna's companions, who heard the voice, looked equally chagrined.

"It may not be interesting to say, "Don't worry... but I've got enough strength against the Silver Lion." I wish to ask you to see Vihela and Rodos while we fight the Silver Lion at the bottom of the dungeon."
"... oh, I see,"

　Rey's words make Johanna look a little disappointed but convinced.

"I know that there are no monsters but the Silver Lion at the bottom, but I want someone to follow me just in case."

　It was convincing to Johanna.
　As long as you challenge Rank S Monster with a few elite players, you can't pull out extra people from there.
　It is already known that there are no monsters other than the Silver Lion at the bottom.
　That's probably why they want to hire someone they can trust, even if they have little skill.

(And I guess it's a big part of my presence.) I can't leave Mr. Vihela, who lost consciousness to a man.)

　His companions, too, have a deep sense of loyalty to Vihela, since they are from the Vestian Empire.
　At the same time, however, it is true that Vihela has such a charming figure and body that one can catch one's eye at a glance, and what happens when such a person is unconscious in front of them?
　I'm sure I can't say completely that I can suppress the desires that will spring up from within me.

"Is it in the form of a bodyguard?"
"Well, I think it's actually going to be an escort."
"And so is my son Rodos,"

　It was Elk telling us so, but the moment Rodos' name comes out, Johanna's faces become tense, albeit instantaneously.
　No wonder. Rodos fought in the civil war.
　Few fought directly, but many still saw a strong attachment to Ray.
　That's why many people have feelings for Rodos' name.
　But Johanna nods, "if Ray, who was most attached to Rodos, says nothing and gives permission."

"All right. Like Mr. Vihela, I will do my best, though not always."
"Oh, that's all right. I've heard of the relationship between you and Rodos, and that's all I can complain about. ...thank you."

　Elk knows what his son has done.
　Knowing that, I honestly thought it was no use for Johanna to refuse.
　However, I can only thank you for taking on the position of bodyguard.
　The Elk's words of gratitude probably dispelled the slight but lingering resentment for Rodos. Johanna smiles back at such elks.
　But for Johanna, whatever Rodos might do, she didn't think she could beat Ray.
　That's probably why Rodos in Johanna was so unpalatable.
　For Johanna and others in the former squad, Ray was the strongest symbol.
　He burned up the enemy forces individually, and even beat the Rank S adventurers. ...though Ray doesn't admit to having won the noise.

"Oh, come to think of it, Mr. Ray," The reward for this request... You can look forward to it, can't you? I've given Mile Dog the right to spend the day with Seto-chan

　I remember a rival... or a natural enemy proudly saying to me that it was a heavenly enemy.
　The right has not yet been used because of the Vihela, but... on the contrary, every time I see her, she brags about it.
　When can I spend my time, how can I spend my time... It was obviously not interesting for Johanna, who is always told that I can.

"All right, I'll give you the right to spend the day with Seto. The others are ready to talkative."

　Tell him so, Ray reached for the skewer.
