On that day, Gallahat was doing paperwork at the estate as president of the Azot trade.
　I didn't have much knowledge of that kind in the first place, and I had a lot of trouble for a while after I became president.
　As an adventurer, I thought I had had some difficulties, but it was a different one.
　I met the greats of other tradesmen, and that was how I met Dusker, the lord of this Guillum... and I had to experience a different kind of hardship.
　Of course, I have never met such a great man before.
　However, it is different from meeting someone as an adventurer and the actual president of the Azot Trading Company.
　While Bornter was a troubled elder brother, he was often amazed to have kept the Azot business together.
　Still, if you work as president for years, you will naturally get used to it.
　Gala pigeons today were able to do their job well as president.
　Again today, I will look through the documents that have come up from below, sign them, and ask the person in charge if I have any questions.
　That's how I worked, and I was taking a break, partly because I was a little tired.

(Spring? This must be the busiest time for adventurers.)

　Being an adventurer himself, Gala pigeon looks out of the window with deep emotion.
　I remember life as an adventurer and miss it a little.
　He had some confidence in his ability, but he was well used by Bornter, who knew it.
　But if it were for the sake of his family... that's what Gara pigeon endured, but the result was who he is... that he doesn't know what's going on now.
　It's no use thinking it's a little funny because it wasn't Ray who had endured his treatment for many years, but Ray who was teased by him.
　We don't know Ray on the surface now, but we could still say that our current relationship is rather good.

"...what?"

　Gala pigeon remembers Ray, but suddenly hears footsteps running into his office.
　With all this footsteps, it was certain that he was not like an assassin.
　Even so, I reach for a long sword that I can't let go of even if I am in the position of chairman.
　Of course I don't think it's really necessary.
　However, since he spent more time as an adventurer than the president, he probably won't get rid of his habits.
　Gara pigeon was looking at the door thinking that way, but...

"Gala pigeon, you're in trouble!"

　It was Mult who came into the office kicking through the door.
　He adored Gala pigeon like his own brother, and he was with Ray when the Azot Chamber of Commerce had a fight with him.

"What's the matter, Mult?" I've changed my face so much."
"Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, Gala pigeon... Ray's here."
"...and Ray?"

　It was surprising to Gala pigeon that she would show up at the right time when she was thinking about Ray.
　In the first place, Ray was supposed to keep himself out of the Azot trade.
　But I wonder why for a moment, but I'm sure I have something to do, so I speak.

"Well, then let me into the cabin." I'll look at my face right away.
"No! No!"

　Multo screams interruptively at the Gala pigeon's words.
　That's probably where Gara pigeon noticed that Murto was acting strangely.
　open one's mouth with a slight frown

"What's wrong? What happened?"
"According to the gatekeeper who brought me the report, Ray is quite angry. Fortunately, the gatekeeper has not suffered any damage yet."
"...what?"

　It's safe to say that no one who has worked for the Azot Trading Company has ever thought of fighting with Ray.
　Naturally, Gala pigeon did not recall giving her any instruction to fight with Ray.
　In other words, the current situation is completely unexpected... ...and Gala pigeon's cheek twitches just because she understands what Ray's anger will bring.

"Did anyone touch Ray?"
"I don't think he's so desperate,"

　Mult's inability to say this completely may be because it has been several years since Ray and Azot clashed.
　In the meantime, there was no possibility that those who came into the business had decided that they could do something about it, and that they would touch Ray.
　Of course, I have been told by people in the Azot trade that I should not be hostile to Ray, but I don't mean that no one has the almighty feeling peculiar to young people.
　That's why I didn't speak clearly.
　The Azot trade was smaller than before, but it still remains one of the largest trade in the guillem.
　That being the case, it's only natural that the number employed there will be enormous.

"Anyway, if Ray is here, let him into the cabin." I don't know what made him so angry, but I'll listen to him."

　Ray's anger is not stomach-friendly information.
　But I knew from my previous relationship that Ray was never a listener.
　If the house had gone wild without any questions or answers, it would have been ruined in the first place.
　That's why the current gala pigeon is calming down, albeit only a little.
　...however, having to have a conversation with an angry Ray is simply damaging the Gala pigeon.
　I suppose Murt understands it. If you nod right away, you leave the office.
　The gatekeeper of the newcomer who came to report is not a very useful situation.
　Also, when explaining the situation to Ray, it would be better for someone who knows him a little more than someone who knows nothing.
　That's what I did with that's what I did.

(My stomach...)

　Over the leather armor, Murt gently pats his stomach.
　Not as much as Gala pigeon, but this incident seems to have caused serious damage to Multo's stomach.
　When the Azot Chamber of Commerce had a conflict with Ray, Murt initially acted hostilely against him, but now he understands how reckless it was.
　...however, he was hostile to Ray largely because he despised him.
　I wasn't hostile for no reason.
　And as trouble continued with the Azot trade, Murt began to understand what kind of power Ray was.

(My stomach hurts. Why is Ray so angry.)

　Murt, leaving the house for the gate.
　Although he doesn't express himself, Ray's condition in front of the gate makes me feel more pain in my stomach, which had been hurting so far.
　Still, he doesn't express his pain, and opens his mouth when he reaches the gate.

"Long time no see, Ray."
"Oh, for some reason or other, I've never had a chance to see you in person like this before."
"Hahaha, well, if you're still in Gilm, you'll hear of Ray's success. It seems like it's moving wildly."

　I'm trying to calm the atmosphere with Ray, so I say so.
　But it's far from flattery.
　It's true that we've heard so much about Ray's success.

"And are those beautiful women and daughters who have been working with Ray lately?"
"Oh, I'm just throwing a party today. but on the very day that we formed the party, there was someone who almost killed an alchemist I knew and stole the magic items I had in my custody."

　The words make Murt understand why Ray is angry. ...and put it away.
　Originally, he is merciless to his enemies, but he is compassionate to his companions.
　If that's what I've just said, it's only natural that you're so angry.Most importantly, he stole Ray's magic item.
　The Azot deal's previous struggle with Ray was his intention to steal the magic item.
　With that in mind, Ray's arrival at the Azot Chamber of Commerce for similar reasons may be a kind of fate.

(I don't need that fate!)

　While refusing to do so with all his might, Mult tries to provoke Ray as little as possible... and speaks so that no one but Ray feels uncomfortable.

"That's... some of you are stupid fellow said. I don't think anyone knows what will happen if you antagonize Ray with Gilmoo."

　If you think of it as a guillem, it's safe to say that antagonizing Ray is a fatal wound in a violent sense.
　In addition, many people who loved Ray's follower Seto did not forgive him for opposing Ray, who naturally took Seto as a follower.
　But... if Ray is in a bad mood here, it's clear who the fatal target is.

(Who, who did such a foolish thing!? ...no, maybe some misunderstanding...?)

　Now that Ray has come this far, the possibility is frighteningly low.
　Words that I understand but still cling to the thread of a word I uttered.
　However, Ray opens his mouth to Murt's words with an intimidating stare that deserves to be called a crimson nickname.

"Well, I thought so, too. And that was the business I had had a hard time of doing the same thing before, and the current president of the business was the Gala pigeon of the party concerned."
"No!"

　Murt declares before Ray finishes his words.
　It was a reflex.
　That's why Ray feels uncomfortable in the face of such malt.
　I'm afraid it's too desperate for me to choose the option of being hostile to myself.
　Of course Ray knows how powerful he is.
　For that reason, it was not impossible to understand that Murt's face was so head-to-head, but his present expression was hardly acting.
　In fact, there was a feeling that Multo might have a high level of acting ability, but as far as I can see, it doesn't seem likely happen.
　Words of genuine concern for Gala pigeons.
　But... that only relaxed me for a moment.

"Why, then, is the smell of a fellow who attacked the alchemist and stole my magic?"
"...what?"

　Words that were dumbfounded leak out of Multo's mouth.
　Now that Ray had come to the Azot trade, I was sure he had some reason.
　It was a little unexpected, however, that the man who did it was in the house.

"Is that true?"
"Do you doubt Seto's sense of smell? I'm not proud of it, but Seto's sense of smell is stupid and superior to dogs."

　Murt wondered for a moment whether he was a dog even though he was a monster based on a lion of the cat family, but now he can't rush into such a place.
　He hurriedly turned to the gatekeeper and shouted sharply.

"Who ever got into the house before the Reys came?"
"Well, yes," Mr. Collis had something to do, and some time ago..."
"How long ago, in particular?"
"... just a few minutes before the Rays came."
"Perhaps that's it,"

　Ray muttered at the gatekeeper's words.
　Those who originally attacked Azimov fled the scene around the same time as the Reis came to Azimov's house.
　After that, Azimov recovered from his injury with a part, leaving it to Marina, and then following the stench with Seto, Vihela, and Bune, so it's not that strange to think about it in terms of course.

"By the way, did anyone but Corris come?"
"That... Mr. Sols came about an hour ago."
"I think we can exclude that out," "Anyhow, since he was the one who robbed me of my magic items, I'd like you to tell me."
"Calm down, Ray,"

　Ray tells Murt, but Vihela tries to hold him back.

"If you're in this house, you can't run away from them." And, as long as Sett is here, may I assume that Slapnil's shoes are now back? . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

　The only thing Murt could do was to nod silently to show that they... that the Azot trade was not willing to oppose Ray.
