The Ray and the Gimekara broke up in the afternoon of the next day... before long you see something familiar but unfamiliar.
　It's Ray's second home, Gilm.
　The reason why I don't remember it is probably because it's under construction.
　In fact, the Ray's time away from Gillum was not so long.
　Even so, the power of people is tremendous, and even with such a large number of people, I think we were able to change the shape of the city.

"There are not enough people at this rate, so I wonder how much work is going on." --there's no such thing as sloppy work, is there?

　Ray muttered while looking at the distant guillem, but given Dusker's personality, he could never have forgiven him for doing so.
　If they try to do so in this construction project, they will not have to pay for it if they live in Gilm, and even if they come to Gilm as a migrant worker, they may be nominated as the worst prize money leader.
　If you ask me if I'm going to make money if I work hard I'm sure I'm going to make money... well, I can't think of it.

(No, if you have any grudge against Mr. Gillum and Mr. Dusker, is there any possibility of doing so?)

　Gillum is of enormous value, partly because it is the only frontier of the kingdom of Milliana.
　There were many others who were aiming for it, some who had failed, and some of them naturally had a grudge against Gillum and Dusker.
　It would be very unlikely that such people would miss an opportunity like this.
　Dusker, however, had a natural grasp of the area, and intelligence forces, led by wolves in the grass, were guarding Gillum.

(Is it safe to have them?)

　That being the case, Ray calls out to the Elena in the set basket.

"I see the guillem," We're almost there."

　The voice conveys a relieved atmosphere from inside the set basket.
　Guilm is an important place for the Marina, of course... for the aristocratic Elena.
　And in front of the main gate of Gilmoo, there are people lining up to enter the city, and there are people who pass by without permission.

"Well, I'll take it down," I can't see the set basket from over there, so it's a little far from Gillum, is it?"
"That doesn't matter," It's not my hobby to surprise others either."

　At Elena's words, Ray caresses Seto.

"Well, set," Put down the set basket a little further from Gilm."
"Grull!"

　At Ray's words, Seto purr happily and descends toward the ground.
　. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
　The function of the casket probably made it impossible to tell where the voice came from.
　Many people, including such people, look at the sudden sound.
　The source of the sound is, of course, a set basket.

"What? Where did it come from?"

　Some of them exclaim with astonishment, but a really small number of them look happy.
　Those with happy expressions on their faces probably know what a set basket is. They immediately look up and rejoice to see Seto there.

"Slurrurling.

　The sound of Seto reverberates around, and only then does the others notice Seto's presence.
　I don't know about Seto, but as long as I come to Gilm, naturally I know him. ...some of them don't know Seto at all, perhaps just because they came here looking for a job.
　There are quite a few of them, especially as they are currently under construction and there are many people like that.

"Set! Are you back?"

　A guard finds Seto and waves joyfully.
　Those who were carrying wood in carts waved joyfully at Seto's presence.
　The guards were simply happy that Sett had returned, but those who carried the wood... exactly welcomed Ray's presence with the item box.
　Of all the extensions being done, the ones most anticipated for the return of the laymen were undoubtedly the woodcutters and the people who carried the cuttings.
　Cutting down trees, putting them together in a carriage, escorting them back to Gillum to avoid being attacked by monsters.
　As long as people are coming and going more actively due to the building extensions in Gilm, monsters are also actively moving to respond, and it is not uncommon for them to be attacked.
　In the past, there were no monsters in the forest that had grown, but these days, perhaps because they thought it was easy to live in, the number of monsters is increasing, and the guards are not relaxed.
　For them, Ray was a savior who dramatically made the job easier.
　With the gaze of these people, Ray and Sett first head to the place where they lowered their cages.

"Well... it's not that small inside, but it feels good to go outside like this."

　The viola from the set basket stretches out.
　As I stretched out, the huge twin hills shook, attracting the attention of men a little further away... but he didn't seem particularly concerned.
　And the buzz gets louder when Vichela is followed by Elena and Marina, who are beautiful women of a lifetime.
　...not once in a lifetime, but many of you who live in Gilm have seen Marina and Vihela many times.
　There are also many who turn their eyes to the likes of Yero and Bune.
　In many ways, while attracting attention, Ray never seems to care about it and puts the set basket in a mistling.

(There were some improvements in the set basket, but will it be possible to improve it by the time I use it next time.

　I don't know exactly how to improve the set basket.
　Since that is the case, it is not possible to calculate by when it will be completed, and even if it is to be improved, it will definitely be a large-scale renovation rather than a single site or two.
　Then they decide that it would be best to ask a full-time job.

"Well, shall we go?" I have to report to you that I am back to you, Mr. Dusker, and... above all, I think you ought to help the extension as soon as possible."

　Everyone nods to Ray's words.
　Yellow alone was lying on Seto's back and basking in the sun.
　Summer has passed its prime, and it's getting somewhat cooler toward autumn now.
　But it's just morning and night, and it's still hot enough to make me want to bathe in the daytime.
　Still, for the Black Dragon's child, Yero, the intense sunlight from the sun might not bother him, but he could not have been more relaxed on Seto's back.

"Guru..."
"Squeak!"

　in conversation with Seto
　With such a set, the Reys head to the main gate of Gilm.
　Originally, the Lays should have been lined up behind those lined up in front of the main gate, but perhaps they had been ordered by Dusker in advance, but they could soon finish the process and enter the guillem.
　However, in the case of Ray and others, they were originally registered as personnel for the extension work, so they could enter without instructions from above.

"Wow... it seems to me that there are a lot of course.

　That's what Vihela said.
　For Vihela, who had been active in a small country called Levulina, even for a short period of time, the guillem would seem to have developed tremendously and had many people.
　When we were traveling, we were traveling with nearly a thousand people, so it wasn'
　No, that many people had moved together, and quite a few had gathered in the carriage during the day, and in the sandboat at night.
　Still, when I return to Gilmoo, I open my eyes to the crowd.
　Originally, Gilm was the only frontier in the kingdom of Milliana, and many people, including adventurers and merchants, gathered.
　But now many others are coming in for work.
　More adventurers and merchants are looking for work on building extensions than ever before.
　There are too many people, and simple accommodations have been built near the construction site... but to a lesser extent, there are more people gathered in Gilm.

(I'm glad I left my room at the Wheat-tei in the evening. If I had checked out, I would definitely not be able to stay again.)

　Naturally, if you don't check out, you will have to pay for your stay while you're away.
　On the other hand, however, there is no problem as long as the price of the accommodation doesn't matter.
　And no one, including Ray, is hard up for money.
　Bune alone has been poor in his life, but there was no problem with Bune's hotel bill being paid by Viehla, who was staying with him.
　In the worst case scenario, however, there was a way to stay at Marina's mansion in the aristocracy.

"It's good that there are so many people, but it's a little troublesome to walk this far."
"It's noon, and there's nothing we can do about it,"

　says Elena Marina, muttering around.In fact, it's just lunchtime and many of the extensions are out in town looking for food.

"Yes!"

　Meanwhile, Bune muttered at a crowded stall.

"For the time being, let's report it to Dusker and have lunch." Perhaps the Dusker is preparing the meal for us."

　Bune nods disapproval to Marina, who names Dusker and says so.

"Cold udon?" -- well, it's this season."

　Ray muttered convincingly when he saw a udon stand that Bune had wanted to eat.
　In the midst of the continuing hot weather, the original expression "…" may not be correct, but not many people want to eat udon noodles with hot soup that have come to be sold at Manjotei.
　It was only natural that they wanted to eat cold food because it was hot.
　However, it's not that long since the leys left the guillem.
　If you think about it that way, it would not have been strange if there had been stalls serving cold udon dishes for a long time ago.

(People come to work in various villages and towns and eat udon.) Working people go back to their hometowns and spread udon... In that sense, udon may be very popular.)

　Thinking this way, the Reys move through the guillem.
　Of course the party with Seto and Elena were very conspicuous...

"Oh, set! Hold on! When did you come back?"
"Seto, let's play! Seto!"

　The first to find Seto approaches the Reyes.

"Oh, I'm sorry. I'd like to let you play with Seto, but now I've got to talk to Mr. Dusker in the lord's house. So..."
"Oh, then why don't we just leave Seto here? I'll take care of him if something happens. What do you think, Captain Ray?"

　It was a familiar person for Ray to cut in as he was about to say no to those who had flocked to Seto.
　That's the kind of person who's glad there's no Mireine here.

"Johanna, don't be a captain," How many years ago do you think it was?"
"No matter how many years ago, it's not ten or twenty years ago, is it?"

　Johanna, smiling and telling me so, is one of the most famous, if not the same as the Miller Dog...
　He is a talented adventurer, and most importantly, he is on par with Miredogs in terms of his love of Seto.

"Well..."
"But what would you do? I can be with Seto, so I don't mind if you leave me."

　At Johanna's words, the children around her look forward to Ray.
　Ray nods after a moment of hesitation at such a glance.

"All right. Then don't ask for Seto."
"Yes, leave it to me," See you, Seto? Shall we play together until Ray comes back?"
"Grull".

　Johanna's words, which, unlike before, refer to Ray as "Mr. Ray" instead of "Captain," give Seto a nod of approval.
　I guess Seto is happy to be back in Gilm after a long time and to have someone to play with him.
　Eventually, the Rays left Sett there and headed to the lord's house.
