"Oh, there it is,"
"Rolling".

　When Ray mutters on Seto's back, Seto chants as if he were right.
　Now underneath the set is the forest. But if you ask me which forest it is... Ray will point to the city in the distance and say, 'The forest near Subursta.'
　From the day they trained with Rocks, a few days... they delivered supplies and additional bodyguards to the Soulas, travelled for several days in full combat training on their journey, and left to return to Gilm.
　And, of course, heading to Gilm means going along the road, and if so, you need to pass near Subursta.
　I heard from Rocks that it was dangerous to pass around here, and I was looking for robbers around here, both as a hobby and as a matter of profit...They succeeded in unexpectedly discovering a group of suspected thieves.
　Of course, it is impossible to tell from above whether the group in the forest is really a bandit.
　It was a different story to see the sight of merchants attacking, but at least now we are just a group in the woods.

(Constantially speaking, it's definitely black.) . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

　The area around here is a great place for thieves to earn money. Of course, the proviso is that only those who have the ability to do something about adventurers, or who have a keen intuition to run away immediately if they feel that they are dangerous.
　Especially now, there are more people than usual due to the building extension work of the guillem.
　There were a certain number of merchants who were confident in their own arms, or had no idea what to do with them, and who did not employ guards... and they were the very best game for the thieves.
　The number of robbers around Subursta is now higher than usual, partly due to the fact that there are many robbers who know this is a great place to earn money through their own information network.
　The Rays probably found the bandits who had just come to Subursta.
　As if to prove it, the robbers are not paying attention to the surroundings, and the camouflage of keeping them from being found is very clumsy.
　Normally, however, you don't have to do that to the sky... but in the case of a sub-bruster, it's a different story.
　Being close to the frontier, there are quite a few monsters flying.
　Not as likely as Gilm or Abuero, but not as unlikely to be attacked from the sky.
　Needless to say, flying monsters travel much faster than ground-moving monsters.
　...yes, even around Subursta, it could be a feeding ground for flying monsters around Gilm.
　Moreover, in Gilm, the only remote city in the Kingdom of Milliana, other villages, towns, cities... and even the royal capital may be in touch.
　At that time, the Dragon Knights come to and fro as messengers in summoned and tamed monsters.
　At a time when we are not paying attention to the sky in such a place, we can see that the thieves have just arrived around here.

"Well, shall we hunt for now?" ...I'm sorry, but I found a band of thieves. I don't think it's true yet, but from what I expected, it's almost certain. So I'll put the basket down to earth once."

　When Ray tells Seto that, he asks Seto to put the Seto away from the forest.
　Originally, it would be best to keep the casket close to the surrounding scenery, but unfortunately, if you do so, it is necessary to lower the casket into the forest.
　That could destroy the cages with trees growing in the forest.
　In order to avoid this, we still had to unload the casket somewhere else... where it was not a problem to unload the casket, and then return to the same place.
　In the casket, Vichela says something like she wants to fight herself, but for the time being, Ray puts the casket down on the grassland a short distance from the road.
　The sound of Seto baskets being lowered to the ground surprised merchants and their guards in several horse-drawn wagons along the highway, who were wary of an attack, but Ray and Seto went back into the woods regardless.
　However, if Seto stepped down directly in front of people who were thought to be bandits, he might have lost his grip because he was not directly seen acting as a bandit.
　If so, it was necessary to get them to act as thieves before dealing with the men so that there would be no point in cutting corners.
　Therefore, Ray asks Sett to let him down from the bandits, and at a glance, he can identify Ray as Ray, so he has Sett go to the other side of the bandits.

(I don't necessarily run back quietly, though.) No, do you run away in all directions? so as to reduce the chance of being caught even a little --it's actually more troublesome to be able to escape in that way than to be able to retreat in order."

　In order to pretend to be a novice who has just become an adventurer... Ray picks up an ordinary spear from within the mystery ring that is not his iconic death size, much less his twilight spear that can be judged to be his work at a glance... that he sells everywhere.
　For a moment I wondered if I could use a spear that was not normally used for throwing, but Subursta is a place close to the frontier, with adventurers of some skill.
　There's at least such an adventurer as the one who was in the countryside near the border wouldn't be able to afford it.
　That being the case, it seems unnatural to have a spear that seems to lack the tip of a spear.
　I judged, and went through the woods with an ordinary spear in my hand."

(That's it)

　Eventually, Ray senses several signs from the way he's moving.
　Feeling the signs, Ray continues without stopping... suddenly five men appear in front of Ray, who has been walking slowly for about five minutes.

"Oh, that's it,"
"Who are you guys?"
"Well, who is it?" But whoever we are... I don't think it matters to you anymore."
"What does that mean?"

　ask while acting as if one were hiding one's fear
　He knew his performance wasn't that good, so he was worried that he might be able to find out, but fortunately the five of them didn't seem to notice Ray's performance at all.
　With daggers and daggers in hand, Ray is smiling with a cruel smile.

(I suppose the reason why there is no spear is because it is supposed to be active in the woods. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . as a thief

　While feeling that way, I am wary of the surroundings... and I have doubts because I feel that the other five people in front of me are not moving at all.

(Was it only five of us, or was it simply thought that five of us would be enough... but it was a little disappointing?)

　A man with a dagger scoffs at Ray with a spear in his hand.

"What are you thinking of spears in the woods, let alone newcomers who have just become adventurers?"

　half‐decisive behavior
　Nevertheless, the expression on his face shows that he wants it to be so at the same time to time.
　As long as they were robbers, men were not the kind of people to hide their faces.

(Well, if you were to be the leader of a great band of thieves, you would often be the right person.)

　Thinking this way, Ray tries to pull a decisive word at the tip of his spear.

"You guys are in the woods like this... bandits! I heard in the guild that there are more bandits around here these days."

　Ray's mouth is absurd.
　That's only natural, as long as I didn't stop by Subursta and come here.
　However, since I knew that there were many robbers around Subursta and Abuero in connection with the construction of the Gillum extension, not everything was absurd.

(How do you answer? To deceive, or to judge that you are a beginner who has just become an adventurer...)

　Ray waits for what he says, but the men smile and open their mouths, wondering if they thought that Ray's gaze was something they were afraid of.

"Correct! We are thieves. But I'm sorry. Even if you know that, you're not good enough."

　The thief, who tried to frighten Ray, couldn't say the word to the end.
　for a spear had penetrated his torso.
　The spear naturally came from Ray.
　A spear thrown away from the surrounding trees penetrates the body of one of the robbers, penetrates the flank of another of the robbers behind it, and completely buries the tip of the ear in the trunk of the tree behind it.
　At that moment, the robbers had no idea what was going on.
　The only thing I can understand is the high-pitched sound created when the tip of a spear sticks into the trunk of a tree and the sound of two of my friends crumbling to the ground.
　The remaining three look at Ray with unnatural movements, as if he were a broken doll.







　What happened and who did it?
　I couldn't make it out at all.
　No, we know with our own eyes who exactly did it. But there was a stronger desire not to understand it or to understand it.
　It's not a weak game or anything in front of us... it's someone we can't compete with.
　The high-pitched sound of a spear stuck in the trunk of a tree has made other thieves aware that something unusual has happened, so they are prepared to cope with everything.Feeling the bandits' presence, Ray takes another weapon out of the mistling instead of the spear he throws.
　...yes, the symbol of crimson, death size.
　Originally, it's a forest with a lot of trees, and weapons like death size are not appropriate.
　If the main purpose is thrusting like a spear, the death size is a scythe, and the main purpose is to shake.
　Nevertheless, the reason I took out the death size here is to show the other person who I am.
　a person with a sickle and item box larger than his height
　There are very few people like that.
　No, not so little, but perhaps the kingdom of Mileana... ...when you look at the whole of Elgin, there'
　A person who is feared by the robbers because he likes to attack the robbers and deprives them of their property...a crimson ray.
　Did you realize that the crimson Ray was in front of you, or did Ray act before you realized it?
　The next moment, a death-size blade wielded by magic cuts the body of the bandits up and down along with the surrounding trees.
　The dead bodies of five people who are unable to say anything and fall straight to the ground give off a strong rusty smell.
　Since it was summer now, I even felt that the iron rusty smell would spread further around me because of course, because of the temperature.
　Leaving that rusty smell on the spot, Ray, who has a death-size body, goes straight back.
　The speed at which the air itself was left on the spot would have been completely unexpected to the robbers behind.

"What!"

　In the midst of this, the first thief to find Ray tries to say something, but Ray does not need to hear it.

"Gosh!"

　The man who tried to shout ended up dead with his torso cut in half with just one murmur.
　However, since it happened in a semi-combat situation, the bandits on the spot immediately begin to prepare for the battle.
　While reducing his distance from such opponents, Ray changed his death size to his left hand, took out his twilight spear in his right hand, and threw it.
　The spear of twilight, which flew through the air itself, penetrates the bodies of several robbers and kills them in an instantaneously.
　And the spear that took several lives soon disappears... the next moment it returns to Ray.
　That was where Ray, who was feared to be a thief, took advantage of the robbers who snatched lives.
　There was no way that the bandits who had just arrived here could do anything about it, and in a few minutes the bandits were left with one to gather information and died.
