"...what? Well, why does that happen?"

　After a few seconds of silence, Tris asks Ray, who is looking at him.
　It was Tris's will as a merchant that he could still ask, while being overwhelmed by Ray's atmosphere.
　But when I asked again, Ray's gaze at Tris remained the same.
　There's a saying that he's got the power of his eyes, but what he's experiencing right now is that he's looking at Tris.
　Tris is also known for his ability in the Speel trade.
　Even so, I can't move carelessly with my present Ray in front of me.
　...no, you can still be praised for being able to open your mouth like that.
　In the face of Tris, Ray asks again what he did a few seconds ago.

"Spiel's business is hostile to me. That's the kind of recognition you have?"
"I have no intention of doing so!"

　The words that Ray uttered must have been astonishing to Tris after hearing them twice.
　Still panicked, he shakes his head and shouts that he has no intention of antagonizing Ray.
　The flesh of my cheeks and jaws shook, and I saw something comical about it, but unfortunately no one here can enjoy it.

"But you're going to do something about the person who came out with my hand, aren't you? Don't let me do it. Wouldn't it be that your opinion and I don't disagree with each other?"
"Ray, isn't the word hostile appropriate? If anything, I think it's better to describe it as a competitor."

　Marina tells Ray to calm him down.
　At Marina's words, Tris was relieved, albeit not to express herself.
　Being hostile to Ray doesn't taste good in many ways when it comes to Gilm.
　First of all, being hostile to Ray also means being hostile to Ray's demons.
　If that happens, it will be a set of mascot characters for mascot characters. Naturally, few people who love Seto will have a good impression of the Spir trade.
　Other than that, there is no doubt that Spiel will suffer a lot of damage when it comes to antagonizing Ray.
　That's how many people can stop Ray when he goes wild.

"Competition...? Well, maybe that's right. But if I get in the way of my actions, Spiel's business will be regarded as an enemy, but will that be all right?"

　Marina told him to change his mind a little, but it was only a slight improvement in his confrontation.
　...the slight improvement is likely to be a lifeline for Spiel, but Tris still wanted Ray to wait and see.
　I wondered if I could do something about it... Eventually, Tris remembers Ray's hobby.
　Yes, Ray's hobby of collecting magic items.
　With a ray of hope, Tris opens his mouth.

"I know Mr. Ray is angry about this case. But can you do something about that? Of course, I apologize for the inconvenience. Whatever it is, Ray's hobby is collecting magic items. "We also handle magic items."""
"It's out of the question,"

　Ray responds without a moment's hesitation.
　I certainly have a hobby of collecting magic items.
　That's a fact.
　But... still, if you think you can buy yourself for magic items in this case, it was frustrating and even uncomfortable.

"Don't look at me too cheaply." -- you want to burn down this Spirited Company itself."

　Ray puts down the dragon lobe hood and says with a smile.
　The smile is like Tris's usual smile, but her eyes don't.

"But... I see. If you're going to transfer the item box to me, you can think about it. Of course, it's not a deteriorating type, it's a real item box.

　Item boxes are very few in existence.
　It's easy to imagine how many times Ray has been targeted at the item box.
　The performance of the deteriorated model that Elena also has is much lower than the original item box.
　There may be some limitations, but compared to the item box, which can store almost unlimited objects, the amount of storage for the degraded type is not that large.
　Even so, it's overwhelmingly more convenient for transportation than for a carriage, since it can hold about one room's worth of luggage.
　It also has the ability to keep the item box in place for a long time.
　This effect is responsible for the ability to eat freshly made Ray anywhere.
　On the other hand, the time spent in storage for the deteriorated type is stored.
　Despite the difference in performance between heaven and earth, deteriorated item boxes are very rare, and it is not uncommon for them to be traded in light gold rather than white gold.
　It goes without saying how much a real item box is worth, even if it's a degraded one.
　In the first place, unlike the degraded model, it cannot be made with the current technology.
　The existing number is fixed, and only a few are known.
　Some people may have it hidden from others, but if so, it will be difficult to find it.
　At the very least, it's not something that can be obtained from the Spiel Trading Company.
　Spiel's is a rather large business, but it's only to some extent.
　If you look around Elgin... no, there are many other businesses that are larger than Spiel's, limited to the Kingdom of Miliana.
　Spiel's business is only a middle‐of‐the‐middle‐of‐
　It was impossible to get an item box, if not very much.

"It's pathetic as a merchant to say such a thing, but it's impossible."
"Then you give up,"
"But!"

　Tris screams, interrupting Ray.
　Tris, too, can never back down here.
　If anyone else solves the matter in Spiel's power struggle, Tris will be despised.
　As a merchant, that's absolutely unacceptable.
　If you act in such a way that people around you despise you here, you're putting dirt on the Spiel trade sign.
　As a person in charge of a branch office, I can never do such a thing.
　The information circulating among merchants is quick, and it will only be a matter of time before the matter becomes public.
　The Azot trade, which has a particularly strong influence in Guillum, has been completely caught up in the internal conflict of the Speel trade.
　Such an Azot trade is unlikely to cover up the matter.
　He should have taken some action after clarifying the cause.

"Can't you do something about it?" That's right."

　Watching Tris bowing deeply, Ray thinks a little.
　It was definitely a matter for me to hold Precious accountable for this incident.
　However, Tris's appearance suggests that it is acceptable to hear some of his opinions.
　I have no grudge against Spiel and Tris himself... and I have no feelings for him.

"What do you think?"
"Well, both Ray and Tris are not going to give up. Then why don't we just move the way we want to, and eventually prefer to get to the presumption? but in that case we need some conclusive evidence."

　I'm talking about Ray, and if I don't make it clear here, I could go straight to the press.
　When Marina said so, Ray naturally looked displeased, but... he nodded without expressing any objection.
　If you attack Precious without any evidence, you could be in a position to be chased by guards.
　Of course, Ray thinks it's OK to leave the guillem if something happens.But it's true that Gilmoo is a comfortable place, and I don't want to do it as much as possible unless there's something to leave.
　Tris also breathes relief at the sight of Ray.
　Tris is nowhere near Ray in pure strength.
　It's only natural that Ray is called a single-handed force.
　But he thought it would be in his favor as an informed merchant if collecting evidence was his first priority.

"Do you have any objection?"
"No,"
"Well, I don't,"

　Ray is reluctant... and Tris responds with a smile to Marina's words.
　Marina nods again when she sees it.

"Then shall we begin by gathering evidence to chase down each other's prestige?" ... oh, and just in case. Maybe... really, maybe, but there's a possibility that the culprit this time is not fancy, so don't try to make a decision."

　Marina said so because the posh she encountered in the hallway said many meaningful things.
　We could have guessed that they said that to confuse and confuse us, but there is still a possibility that billion won't be one.
　Marina, who had experience as a guildmaster, had judged Tris to be completely untrustworthy.
　What's more, I've heard a lot about Spiel's aggressive behavior during the winter... and yet it's still above the law.

"Well, do you want to say that my information is unreliable?"
"I haven't said that much," But there's a possibility, isn't there? Just in case?"

　In fact, it's dangerous to judge everything just by the information you've heard from Tris, according to Guildmaster' experience.
　Maybe Tris is trying to use Ray's power to fit the prestige.
　That's a possibility.

"... I see. Well, that's it."

　Tris probably understood what Marina was thinking.
　I'm reluctant, but I accept Marina's words without saying no.

"Yes, I'm glad you understood it." Shall we wrap up now? Or is there anything else you would like to discuss?"
"I would normally like to have a lot of business talks with Ray, but that's not the case at the moment."

　As someone in charge of the branch of the Speel Trading Company, there were many things I wanted to do with Ray.
　Famous as a skilled adventurer, Ray is a plant that ordinary adventurers find difficult to extract... or he can defeat powerful high-ranking monsters to obtain materials and magical stones.
　Furthermore, the ability to travel on a set and the ability to have a misty ring allows you to carry a large amount of luggage at a speed that is incomparable to that of a carriage.
　I'd love to talk about business if it were normal...Such a thing cannot be done under the present circumstances.
　Ray also nods back to Tris, who mutters heartily regrettablely.

"Well, I'm afraid I won't be helping Spiel unless the matter is resolved. and... no, shall I stop any longer?"

　Ray stopped talking along the way, but Tris understood what Ray was trying to say.
　Ray's personal friendship must have been severely damaged by Speel.
　It was absolutely necessary to get into the guillem and gain a certain share, but now it's rebounding against us.

(Should I have taken any other step? .Should I have taken any other step? But I didn't know that I had any relationship with Mr. Ray. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . ."

　I'm not dealing with the business because I have some important contract.
　It seems to me nothing but a reckless study of how to eat goblin meat deliciously.
　That's why I don't know there's anything to do with Ray about his hobby... and as a result, it's contributing to the current complicated situation.
　With a bit of regret... Still, Tris would try to make things better anyway.
