The Lays were attacked by masked men, but the guards appear as if they were watching when they had knocked them down.
　Of course, I wasn't really aiming for that timing, but when things are settled like this, it's inevitable that the eyes of the people around me get mixed up with a look of amazement.
　However, it was only because the disturbance had been successfully suppressed without incident, and if something tragic had happened, the guards would have looked at it in a way beyond ridicule.

"Well... uh... uh... uh... uh... uh...

　Do the guards understand that they are late, too? They look around vaguely.
　Still, they understand exactly what they need to do, and they go down to the men who have lost consciousness and restrain them.
　Of course I would take off my mask at that time, but... it's not the face of a particularly famous person that came out of it.
　The security guard, who was hoping that he might be the prize-head or a criminal who had some sort of arrangement if he didn't get there, looked a little disappointed.
　Masks are, of course, something you should use when you don't want to show your face.
　Since you used it, you don't want others to see your face, and that's probably because your masked face is well known.
　The guards thought so, but they were completely out of line.

"Does anyone know his face?"

　I ask my colleagues, and everyone shakes their heads.
　It was the same with the faces under the other masks.
　I'll ask not only my fellow guards but also those around me, but none of them have ever seen their faces.

"I can't help it. I'll take him to the station and interrogate him when he comes to himself. and yet you're really, truly and truly loved by the commotion."

　Ray and his acquaintance, a security guard, spoke in a somewhat dumbfounded way.
　But he tries to put his hand on Ray's shoulder... and then for the first time he notices any other face.
　The first thing I saw was Marina, the guildmaster of this guild.
　And the next thing I saw was Elena, who was nicknamed General Princess, the symbol of the aristocracy of the Kingdom of Milliana.
　The last thing I saw was Vihela, famous for her party with Ray for some time, and for her sensational attire.
　...there's actually Arra, but the guards who were talking to Ray because the other faces were too conspicuous.
　But for Arra, that's a common occurrence if she's working with Elena, and she doesn't seem particularly concerned.
　Arra is well-featured, but she probably realizes she can't compare to Elena.
　Anyway, the guards at the sight of Elena and Marina open their eyes wide.

"What, Mr. Elena as guildmaster?"
"It's too late to notice," This carriage was originally Elena's, and I think we should have noticed it sooner."
"Say it sooner, like this! ... Well, first of all, let's hurry to the station, for the place. These attackers must also be arrested properly."
"...isn't your attitude too blatant?"

　Ray mutters with a slight air of stupidity, but this attitude is normalize.
　They are the notorious Duchess and Guildmaster.
　There are not many people who can treat such a person comfortably.

"Stupid, my dear. In fact, these aren't the kind of people we can talk to!"

　As the guards say so, the other guards carrying the unmasked men nod in agreement.
　Ray, who has known Elena for a long time, is not particularly concerned, but once again he is convinced of their status. ...however, it's not Ray's to change his attitude, and the Elenas don't want to change their attitude.

"You can't stay here forever, can you?" It's blocking the main street."
"... oh, I see,"

　Looking around again, Ray realizes that a crowd of people watching the carriage, themselves and the attackers is blocking the main street.
　It's not like the main street is blocked because it's not completely blocked.
　But it's still not very easy to pass through.
　With that in mind, I could understand why the guards rushed the Reys.

"All right, then, shall we head to the station once?" -- all right?"
"Yes, it's all right,"

　Marina nods to Rey's words, and the others nod as well, for no particular objection.

"That's a great help, then, let's go." We'll take care of the carriage, just in case."

　A guard who was talking to Ray earlier tells Elena and Marina in a completely different tone.
　Given the other person's position, the change in tone is only natural.
　The two, who are used to such behavior, nod without changing their expressions.

"Ara, please give me a cabman,"
"Yes, Mr. Elena," Now, ladies and gentlemen, please get in the cab."

　The words drive Elena into the carriage, and Seth, who was playing with the child, returns to the carriage.

"Well, Ray. You know, in times like this, it's better to be escorted in a carriage with me... do you have any?"

　Ray, who was about to get into the carriage, is asked by the guard.
　What Ray did to such a guard was to shake his head.

"You don't need it, do you?" It would help me in the sense that if he were to touch us in this situation, we could get a clue to the attackers."
"...that's right,"

　Well, the weakest people here are the guards, not the lays.
　Even the security guard in question would bow if he were asked if he needed it as a bodyguard.
　That's why I don't complain about Ray's appearance, but I'm convinced.

"And you're going to guard the front and back of the carriage, aren't you?"
"...rather, it's a bodyguard to keep the attacker from getting hurt more than necessary."

　The security forces have the authority to crack down on criminals, but it was only natural that they should hurt them pointlessly.
　The main purpose of this bodyguard is to prevent criminals from getting hurt by pretending to be fighting with this face.
　It's not to help criminals, it's to the judgment that more people should extract information from themselves.
　It's true, however, that anyone who acts like they're going to fight with the laymen only has compassion for the criminals.
　In terms of the pure fighting power of Ray and his party, the village can destroy them in less than an hour, and even against the army, Ray is certain to win.
　That kind of strength... makes me wonder if it's a suicidal candidate to attack someone who has the power to call a natural disaster rather than a strength.

"Well, I don't care. It must be troublesome. Please lead the way."

　That's all Ray had to say, and he was getting into the carriage.





　There was no new attack on the way to the station, perhaps thanks to the presence of guards.
　The Reys alone had exceptional military power, but with the addition of guards, did you think that the previous level of military power would not be enough, or did you think that it would be enough to attack the Reys simply once?
　At any rate, when they arrive at the station, they pull over and talk to the guards about the future.
　and one of the guards said that the men had attacked the carriage to hide something in it before they knew it, and that they had entered it with the permission of Elena, just in case.

"Wow, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh!

　The cries of guards echoed from the carriage.
　The other guards entered the carriage, and a similar scream echoed around themselves.
　It's only natural that ... I thought it was in a carriage, and found that there were sofas and tables, and even light cooking utensils, which were worthy of being called rooms.
　Under normal circumstances, fewer people are surprised to see this scene.
　It was a magic item created by the Duke of Kelebel lavishly, so that a single guard could not understand all of it."Ah,"

　Who was it that muttered so.
　This carriage had already been used to it for Ray, too.
　Vichela and Marina are not as much ridden in the carriage as Ray, but they are one or two former Rank A adventurer Dark Elves and one or two former princesses of the Empire of Bestia.
　I don't think it's exactly the same, but I've used a few similar magic items, and I wasn't as surprised as the guards.

"What shall I do?"

　Ray imagines the guards inside the carriage who would be surprised or hardened, and asks the owner of the carriage.
　But when asked what to do, Elena doesn't know what to do.
　This has never happened before, and yet he quickly switches his mind and opens his mouth.

"I don't care what you say," In the first place, our carriage was well kept in the dungeon, and we didn't meet anyone else on our way to Gilm. I don't think it's possible to hide anything in a carriage."

　Elena's words, scraping up her golden hair, catch Ray's eye and nod.

"You can't do such a thing unless the people in the inn have their own gang,"
"There was no such person in that inn, was there?" . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

　Everyone seems to disagree with Elena's opinion and nods back.
　Then, at the same time, the guards come down from the carriage.
　I heard screams a while ago, but the surprise seems to have disappeared like a guard.
　When Ray sees it, he opens his mouth, relieved that he won't be questioned.

"And how was it? Was there anything suspicious inside?"
"Oh... I'm sorry, but I can't understand it at all just by looking at it. I didn't think it was a room inside. It's amazing, isn't it?"

　At the end of the murmur of the guard, the other guard nods unconsciously.
　I don't understand how Ray felt, but I don't think he could be like this forever.

"What are you going to do now?"
"Well, I think you'll hear about the situation, but I think it'll be over soon. If you have any questions for Ray, you can go to the Wheat-tei at dusk, can't you?"

　If you're a security guard... no, anyone with a little knowledge of the situation knows that Ray is staying at the Wheat-tei at dusk, which is also classified as a luxury inn in Gilm.

"Oh, not just me, but all the Elena are staying at the Wheat-tei at dusk. If you have anything to do, you can contact them."
"Well, contact the guild if you have any business with me."

　Marina also tells the guards after Ray.
　After hearing the words, Ray suddenly realizes that he doesn't know where Marina lives.
　Whenever I met Marina, I was in the guild's office.
　So Ray doesn't know where Marina lives.

(Well, it's not something to listen to now. Besides, you said you would give the guildmaster to the workers, and you would never see them in your office, so you would know about Marina's house.)

　We are staying at the Wheat House at dusk, but given our position as guildmasters, there is no doubt that Marina has her own home.

"I'll let you do so," Well, let's head towards the station. It's cold here."

　There was no objection to what the guards said, and the Rays went to the station.
