"Is this building all right?"

　Vihela mutters when she sees the building in front of her.
　But it's only natural. That's because it was a hut that was so old that you might wonder if it could be described as a building.
　The walls are also somewhat stripped, and you can easily peek in from there.
　That's the kind of building that makes you think it's easy to break down if something happens.

"How dare you think of hiding the white gold in such a shack?"
"That's why, isn't it? You don't think you're hiding your treasure in a hut like this."
"…I see. In the event of a fire, only this part of the hut burns, and the white gold buried in the ground is safe."
"Yes, that's well thought out. but it is not surprising that anyone should be able to hide such a treasure in such a hut."
"Yes,"

　mutter Viehla's words in agreement with Bune.
　It's buried in the ground, so it's not easy to find, but it's definitely not.
　In fact, if you have a keen sense of smell like Seto, it won't be difficult to find.
　...however, Kena is also a relatively good freelance assassin in the slums and underworld.
　If you act like you're robbing Kenna of her treasure, you'll lose your life in exchange for the luxury of the luxury of the moment.
　That's not the kind of daredevil who knows it and takes aim at Kenna's treasure.

"Well, you can ask him about that later. Anyway, we can do what we need to do now. ...Seto, we're going in, so look around. I don't think there's anyone who's going to poke his nose at us now."
"Grull".

　Seto confidently calls in Ray's words to leave them to him.
　But Ray didn't think anyone would actually touch him, as he said.
　In fact, no one would ever get involved with the Ray's approach to the slums.
　...however, it's not strange, considering Ray and Sett's popularity in Gilm.
　It is also well known that he formed a Rank B party called the Wings of the Red Lotus.
　I don't know if I'm going to get involved with someone like that...

"Hey, look, mate. There's a nice woman there, isn't there?"
"Oh, she's a good woman. Hehehehe."

　Suddenly, that kind of voice echoes around me.

"... I'm sorry,"

　It was completely unexpected for Ray that he still had someone to entangle him like this.
　They are, however, in these places. I don't have to be familiar with rumors and information.

(but I, Vichela, and Bune, you know, have Seto, who, as far as they are concerned, has no power to manage the Gryphon.)

　The couple who have been entangled with Ray and his wife have the impression that one of them has a beard all over his face.
　The other is apparently fat, with a creepy laugh at the viola.
　It doesn't look very strong to Ray.

(For a moment, only a moment, but I thought maybe Precious had done something about it... was entirely my imagination.)

　Looking at the two in front of me, I don't think I'm a strong opponent.
　At that point Ray loses interest and opens his mouth, patting Sett lightly.

"Seto, I'm sorry, but I'll ask you to deal with them. I don't mind doing anything so long as I don't kill him."
"Rolling".

　At Ray's words, Seto takes a step forward when he cries.
　Seto's motivation makes the pair unwittingly retreat from the body's fighting and murderous power.

"Oh, what? Do you think it's okay to do this to us!?"
"Well, well, you can't be forgiven."

　At last they were making a noise as if they understood how dangerous they were, but Ray went into the hut, completely ignoring their words.
　...I heard a sound from behind like beating meat to the ground, but it didn't seem to bother me at all.
　When you go into the hut, it's quite old, as expected, and no one seems to live in it.

"Wow... it's a great place,"
"Yes,"
"Well, that's why no one thinks you're hiding your treasure in a place like this. It was this way."

　I head to the edge of the hut, remembering the explanation from Kena.
　It is boarded up and rips off some of it.
　Then there were marks of excavation, and when I dug lightly, something was buried in cloth.

"That's it,"
"Yes, I suppose," -- it seems to have been true."

　Vihela also did not expect Kena to tell a lie at this stage.
　But I was still wondering if it might be.
　That's why I feel relieved that there was such a white gold coin.
　If it were not for the white gold, Marina's promise to belong to the Wolves of the Grass could have been ruined.

"Well, then..."
"Yes,"

　Before Ray could say anything, Bune muttered briefly, pointing a little further away.
　Near the spot where the white gold was buried, the remains of apparent excavation.
　Considering that this hut was filled with Kanea's white gold, it is not necessary to consider what was buried there.

"Oh... let's leave it alone." We didn't come to steal all Kanea's hidden assets. Whatever is buried there, it belongs to Kenna."
"...huh,"

　With a little regret, Bune nods.
　But Bune is also a thief, but it is only a taxonomic entity.
　I have no intention of interfering with other people's property unless I'm a real thief.
　This time, too, I wanted to take a look at it.

"Here we go," If possible, I want to finish this matter by the end of the day."
"Yes,"

　Bune follows Vichela's words and leaves the hut.
　The Rays followed suit and found them lying on the ground.
　It goes without saying who it is.
　Ray glances at the two fallen men and caresses Seto when he finds out that there are scratches and bruises, but they still move and are not dead.

"You didn't kill me well,"
"Slurrurling.

　At Ray's words, Seto exclaims, "Of course!"
　It sounds as if I was expressing the joy of being praised by Ray.This could have been called a smiling sight if two men had not fallen on the ground.
　Then Ray caresses Seto for a few minutes before he realizes the men who had fainted.

"Hit!"
"Oh, my God!"

　Fearful monsters who attacked them like they were beating themselves.
　Ray, who is making it look like a cat loves it, Viehla, who is looking at them dumbly, and Bune, who is expressionless, must have finally realized that the two men are not normal partners, though they are not always in front of them. screech away
　Never minding the pair, Ray pulls out the white gold coin he finds in the hut.

"Here it is, Set," The smell of this white gold coin -- and the smell of the other than the kenna."
"Grull".

　Leaving it to him, Seto uses his olfactory skills to smell the gold coin.
　Then they start walking down the road, smelling the air.
　The first thing to do is not slums... but main streets.

(I thought it might be a good idea to hide in the slums so that I wouldn't be found, for it was a Precious thing.)

　Surprised a little by the direction Sett is going, the Rays follow him straight away.

"Where do you think he is?"
"Well, if I were to think of it in a normal way, it would be some kind of inn... unless the man who brought Kenna's request had left Gillum."

　Vichela replies to Ray's words.

"I see," Marina talked to Mr. Dusker just in case, but I can't deny the possibility that he was escaping by some unexpected means. and the clues will disappear."

　Ray breathed, but some predict that the possibility is not so high.
　In the first place, getting out of Gilm without being found is very difficult because of the boundary.
　If you're one of the big names in the underworld, you can do anything about it, but... Precious didn't have that strong backing in guillem.
　Then it was Ray's prediction that he would probably still be in the guillem...
　No, it could be called a hunch.
　The feeling grows stronger and stronger when I see Sett walking along the road without hesitation.

(He would hide in a carriage and run away, if he were to be found by a guard.)

　There's a way to hide in a barrel or something, but not many people are doing that.
　As for whether he could join hands with such a partner... it was Ray's decision that it was possible if he had time.
　And now that time is the enemy of all things... and the enemy of all things.

"Grull?"
"...no, I'll see you later."

　Ray gently caresses his head as Sett turns his head to a nearby.
　Perhaps Seto, who has been patted on the head, knows that this is an important time. Without showing any signs of dissatisfaction, they go back to tracking the smell.
　After seeing that set, some people try to love her, but if you look at how Ray is doing now, you can easily see that he's not playing while buying and drinking as usual.
　No one but some people who couldn't read the atmosphere or the children would interfere with Sett.
　In particular, although Seto looked a little lonely, he probably understood that it was now his priority to track down the smell left in the gold coin.
　go down the road to get rid of one's regret

"Now... where do you think he is?"
"Well, I thought you could be in a slum... but apparently that's not true."
"Yes,"

　Vichela responds to Ray's words, and Bune nods in agreement.
　It was the same with Ray.
　Slums aren't usually places to go.
　That's why it's a convenient place to be when you want to be dazzled by others.
　But Seto did not go to the slums, even though the place where the gold coin was hidden was just beside the slums.
　Then there's no doubt that Precious... that the man who asked Kenna to do so is not in the slum.

(Oh, is there a possibility that they will purposely draw attention to themselves and take our eyes off the prestige?)

　That's what Ray thought, but now it's definitely best to rely on Seto's sense of smell.

"Huh? Wait a minute. This road..."

　The Lays followed Seto, who was leading the way, and suddenly realized that the surrounding area had become a familiar place.
　It's not far from the guild.
　Of course it's not along the main street, but it's definitely a lively place.
　It's not unusual for a place to stay for a presumption, but... in the present circumstances, if you ask me if I'm staying at an inn in such a stately manner, I have no choice but to tilt my head.

"What do you think?"
"Even so... you don't think Seto will smell the wrong thing, do you? Then he's probably in an inn around here."

　Vichela replies to Ray's words.

(They say it's dark under the lighthouse, but this is exactly what it looks like.) . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

　Ray walks, looking around him and thinking.
　I arrived at... an inn not far from the guild.
　Ray knows the name of the inn as well.
　Though inferior to the Wheat Pavilion at dusk, it is still one of the best inns in the world.
　"Also, it is a high-class inn, and it features high security such as security."
　With that in mind, it wouldn't be so strange to have a fancy in this inn.

"Then... shall we go?"

　muttered Ray, who took a step towards the inn.
