"What? Well... I'm sorry, but can you play it again?"

　Lenora nods to Rey's words and then opens her mouth.

"Today's request is not to cut down and bring in trees from Trent's forest, but to transport the trees that have been cut down over there."

　When Lenora decides that the words he uttered were not misheard, he opens his mouth dumbfounded.

"I think it was the guild's policy to keep people as close as possible to the forest of Trent,"
"Yes, I've heard that, but... there seems to be a lot of movement up there." Is that the case?"
"... I see,"

　Lenora's words make Ray nod convincingly.
　In the first place, there were various doubts about the request to cut down trees from the forest of Trent and bring them.
　Considering that, there is no particular problem if the contents of the request have changed a little.
　No, it would be easier for Ray to just bring back the tree.

"Is that why there are so few people in the guild today?"

　Ray comes to the guild during the morning busy hours... only after the hours when the request is posted on the request board and adventurers flock for it.
　It was the same today, but there are some adventurers in the guild at this time of day, but it seems to me that there are few adventurers today.

"Yes, sir? It is a rank-limited request, for the forest of Trent is dangerous, but it may be a good request, in the sense that if adventurers cut down trees themselves, besides the guard of the woodcutters, they would add to their rewards."
"Well, have you really decided to restrain the spread of the Trent forest?"
"What do you said. Perhaps he wants more wood."

　Lenora replies to Ray's muttering.
　Next to Lenora, Kenny seemed to have spoken to Ray, but... he didn't seem to have finished organizing his work yet, and he was sure he would get in trouble if he spoke to him in this situation.

"Well, I don't care. I hope my request will be easier. -- oh, would you rather take the marina with you?"
"... as a guild, I wish Mr. Ray would travel back and forth between the guild and the forest of Trent, if possible."
"In other words, not only have you been there once, but many round trips?"
"Let me tell you the truth... it will happen."

　Lenora's words make Ray think.
　It's no problem to go back and forth many times.
　In the first place, the flying Seto travels only a few minutes each way to the forest of Trent.
　However, storing the felled trees one by one in the mistling is still troublesome, and most importantly, repeated trips between Guillum and Trent Forest means that the process of entering and leaving Guillum must be repeated.
　Moreover, even after the procedure had been completed, they had to travel to the guild many times.
　It's obviously troublesome.

"If it's all right to hand over the felled trees to Guild's face waiting in front of the main gate of Guillum?"

　What Ray ended up saying was a compromise like that compromise.
　Storing trees cut down in the Trent forest in mistiling is not impossible, if troublesome.
　I thought about it and told him so...

"Well... I understand Mr. Ray's request, but then I have to bring the tree in front of the main gate to the guild somehow..."
"It would be all right if there were adventurers about it... if I could bring them all together at the end?"
"No, that would mean a lot of trees coming all at once."

　Kenny tells Ray, a little dumbfounded, whether he's done with the paperwork.
　Originally, the guild warehouse is limited in number of round trips.
　That being the case, it was best for the guild to bring it to the guild on a regular basis.

"Then... well, you're going to take the trees that I've collected in the guild's warehouse somewhere, aren't you? Then why don't I bring them there directly?"
"Well... if you think about it normally, it is." But there seems to be a lot of circumstances up there, too."
"The circumstances?"
"Yes, though we don't know much about it at our level. ... Lenora, why don't you ask your elders, and if you still can't make a decision, it might be better for you to talk to the guildmaster?"
"...yes, yes,"

　I could understand why Kenny had said such a thing at once when I saw him smiling happily now.
　Yes, while Lenora explains the situation to her boss, Kenny can talk to Ray alone.
　It may not have been aimed at it from the beginning, but Kenny could not have missed it if he had the chance to talk to Ray alone.

(I'm acting with beautiful women like Marina and Vichela.) I've got to get to know Ray around here.)

　Marina and Vihela, whom Ray works with, are very attractive partners in Kenny's eyes.
　Even Kenny would fall in love with me when I realized it.
　Bune is the only one who doesn't seem to be Kenny's love rival, but... it won't help.

"Well, I won't say anything more since I'm done with my work, but... if there's anyone who comes to get a request, do you handle it properly?"

　Even if you know Kenny's aim, you can't help but talk to your boss under the current circumstances.
　Lenora breathes out that she can't help it, and then she leaves her seat and heads to her boss.
　Lenora, too, was rooting for Kenny's love, but... she didn't show much attitude.

"Huh, it's been a long time since I talked to Ray so slowly."
"Well, I've been busy these days, for some reason or other."

　The Spiel business and the Trent Forest which we are currently involved in.
　Especially in the case of the forest of Trent, the forest eroded at night... and above all, the monsters were mostly dedicated to the flying set and the highly militant Ray.
　However, many other adventurers will appear at the request of today.

(The rank-limited request means that unlike ever before, a talented adventurer will go to the forest of Trent.) ...well, I don't know what kind of party the luggage I found yesterday belongs to.)

　Thinking so, Ray, concerned about yesterday's package, looks at Kenny and opens his mouth.

"Did you know which party the package I found yesterday belongs to?"
"Oh, that's what Lenora was looking for. ...no, I'm afraid not yet. There are many busy things about the forest of Trent, and it is very important that there was nothing in the package that could identify him."
"Well, if it were a guild card, it would have been a different story..."
"Yes, but basically, the guild card is often carried by the person himself. If you think about that, it will be difficult to do so immediately unless there is something distinctive left."

　What Kenny saw as he spoke was Ray.
　Ray wore a number of magic items, including Mistyling and Slapnil's shoes, and Nevra's eyes and the ring of the new moon.
　With all these characteristics, it will be easy to find out who was wearing them.
　...however, it would be difficult to pick up a magic item and report it to the guild.

"You seem to have been to the forest of Trent many times. Have you ever seen any monsters?"

　They probably decided that talking about the missing party would only darken the subject. Kenny changes the subject.
　But it's not about the Trent Forest at all, it's probably because Kenny, as a guild official, cares about the Trent Forest.
　Ray is arguably the most frequent visitor to the forest of Trent in the guillem now.
　That means no one knows more about the Trent Forest than Ray.
　...however, Ray is not so familiar with all kinds of plants, so there is a limit to what he can answer when asked.
　But when asked if he still encountered a monster in the forest of Trent, Ray shook his head confidently.

"No, I haven't encountered any monsters at all. Surely there will be monsters in the forest of Trent at night, considering Slaisha and the luggage I found yesterday."

　We can't see any shadows or shapes during the day.
　Kenny nods at Ray's words.In fact, it's a funny thing to do.
　Even though monsters become active at night, there's no way they'll disappear at noon.
　There may be slow movements or sleeps, but even so, the five senses, the sixth sense, and even the ability to sense magic, including odors, should not have been enough to mislead Seto.

"I see. Then..."
"Thank you for waiting."

　Just before Kenny says something, Lenora comes back and says so.
　Kenny looks displeased at Lenora, who interrupted his happy moment, but... he knows that he was only dealing with her while Lenora was away.
　There's nothing to complain about, and you're reluctant to shut up.
　Staring at Kenny, Lenora opens her mouth to Ray again.

"""I asked the guildmaster, and he told me that this case is highly confidential." So I want you to refrain from taking the trees that Ray felled individually."
"...what do you want me to do?"
"He said he would send a man, and he asked me to hand over the tree to him."
"Well, will it end up like that?" ...what?"

　Lenora's words make Ray feel uncomfortable for a moment.
　They say they're going to do people, but it's not clear where they're coming from.

(Well, if you think of it as a guild... or an adventurer?)

　I felt uncomfortable for a moment, but I forgot about it right away.

"What's the matter?"
"No, it's nothing. Then, when I confirmed today's request, I headed to the forest of Trent and stored the cut down trees there. and then hand it over to the other person at the entrance of Gilm?"
"Yes, it is," I understand that the commission fee depends on the amount carried, but is it all right?"
"Oh, that's all right. "However, I would like you to pay the request fee by fire ore."""
"I've heard about it from the guildmaster. It was either flame ore or money that Mr. Ray wanted."

　The workers probably understand that Ray is forcing him to do a lot of things in this case.
　That's definitely why Ray has prepared the reward he wants.
　...though Ray himself has no idea that he is pushing himself too hard.
　In the first place, I've only worked for an hour or so.
　However, it is undoubtedly true that Ray is the only one who can do it.

"Well, then I'll take the flame ore."
"... What do you use that magic metal for? Isn't money better?"

　Kenny, listening to Ray and Lenora, asks mysteriously.
　I've heard of Ray's use of a tornado of flames, but I don't know exactly how to do it... let alone inject flame ore into it to increase its power and ability to kill.
　If you don't know this, you could normally assume that flame ore is something used by blacksmiths and alchemists.
　And Ray is not a blacksmith or an alchemist.
　Or I understand why you want flame ore as a material when you ask for something to be made.

"For me now, flame ore is more pleasing than gold is gold. Especially in this case..."

　use a fire whirlwind to burn up the forest of Trent in time of need
　Flame ore was nothing short of Ray's last resort.
