"Gul-l-r-r-r-r-r-r!"

　Seth exclaims joyfully when she finds Ray in the harbor -- a rather modest one to call him.

"Oh, Seto. It seems that we have been able to protect the ship safely. The pirates... well, if they're not dead, are they?"

　As Ray looks back at the twenty pirates who are folded a little further away, he looks at the pirates who are tied to the rope he is pulling... caught pirates.
　There are about twenty people there.
　In addition to the pirates Ray first encountered when he landed, the pirates searched and found a suspicious spot on the island.
　However, even though it's quite an old ship, I don't think it's enough to have about forty people to move the two ships.

(With the size of this island, there is a possibility that pirates are hiding somewhere we don't know yet, but even if we keep hiding like this, there's nothing we can do about it if the ships are gone.)

　The nearest village from this island is the one Ray had just visited and asked to subdue the pirates.
　a distance of about ten minutes with the wings of Seto
　...when sufficient for Seto's wings, it takes a reasonable amount of time to walk on the ground.
　Furthermore, swimming in the sea will increase the travel time.
　It's difficult to swim for such a long time, even for pirates.
　Moreover, there are monsters as well as fish in the ocean.
　Swimming around in such a place would be nothing short of suicide.
　In other words, if Ray snatches both ships here, the pirates left on the island will live on a truly uninhabited island.

(Well, I can't deny the possibility that boats and such are left behind, and there's a possibility that they'll make the worst raft and escape from the island.)

　Ray decided that if he had to go that far, he wouldn't do anything more.

"What!? ... Gu, Gryphon!"

　The man walking in front of the pirate being towed by Ray on a rope screams with astonishment.
　It was quite unexpected that a Gryphon would appear in such a place.
　The pirate's words made other pirates look incredulous.
　Ray looks a little surprised at these pirates.

"What? Didn't you know who I was? I thought you were famous among the thieves, and you guys, pirates, too.

　muttering, Ray takes the death-size out of the mistling again.

"I thought you'd know quite quickly who I was when you saw it."

　Ray said so, but the pirates probably finally figured out who Ray was after seeing Sett.
　Many people looked despairing.
　In an effort to put the boot out of these pirates, Ray swings his death-size lightly and opens his mouth after he makes a stabbing attack as if cutting through the air itself.

"I think it's a pity that you don't know who caught you, too, so let me introduce myself. I'm Ray. Rank B adventurer, nicknamed crimson. The robbers told me they were robbers, and I think that might be more familiar to you."

　The word robotic food makes some pirates twitch their faces.
　Such people probably had some information.
　That's why they find out that they've been looked at by someone they should call a messengers of destruction, and they despair.
　Still, these pirates could still be said to have been lucky for the kind of thieves.
　If he had done harm to his captors in many ways, like the robbers around Subursta... among others, he would not have been captured alive.
　The reason why none of them were taken prisoner was because they judged that kidnapping by this pirate would only be troublesome, but... they must have been really lucky to have been able to survive.

"Well, for the time being..."

　muttering so far, Ray tied his rope to a nearby tree.

"I'm here, all of you." Is that the kind of perception?"

　The pirates looked at Ray's words for a few seconds... and then nodded.

(That's a lie.)

　Ray was semi-intuitive about the pirates' behavior, saying it was a lie that they were all.
　In the first place, I've been looking around at places that seem somewhat suspicious, but I still haven't completely looked around.
　That being the case, there may be someone hiding somewhere... or someone unaware of Ray's existence.

(There's no possibility that you didn't notice the first cet's cry... maybe not.)

　It was probably impossible that I didn't hear that cry.
　Perhaps it's because there are people in the world who have such a high level of concentration that they don't notice even if they shout in their ears.
　I don't think any of the pirates in the countryside had that kind of concentration, but there was a possibility that there might be such a person.

"I'll tell you, if you're here and you're all here, I'll immediately kill you as a pirate or something suspicious. --that's all right, isn't you?"

　Some pirates twitch at Ray's words.
　After seeing it, Ray, convinced that his prediction was still true, pulls the death size out of the mistling and swings it ostensibly.
　A scythe that would normally be difficult for a small body like Ray to hold.
　But Ray holds it in one hand and treats the scythe as if it were a branch of a tree or something.
　It was a casual death-size blow, but its speed and sharpness were as powerful as cutting through space itself, let alone air.
　Knowing that Ray is known as a crimson and a thief, the pirates watching him are naturally fascinated by the blow.
　I felt as if I had ice in my spine, perhaps this blow was being delivered to me.

"Just in case, I'll ask you again for confirmation. who are indeed all here, and if I ever find anyone on this island, I will cut him off as a suspicious man, but that's all right?"

　Ray asks the pirates seriously, not seriously... but with a smile on his face.
　Such Rey's words make the pirates speechless.
　I don't want to sell my friends here who are still safe.
　But if he doesn't say he still has friends here, Ray will most certainly kill the person he finds as suspicious.
　Those who saw Ray's words and actions could easily imagine them, and those who knew Ray, who is called a bandit eater, have a stronger sense of fear.
　Soon... one of the pirates watching Ray speak.

"There are not about ten of us here yet."

　Others cast blameful glances at the pirates who told them so, while others cast inevitable glances.
　He was a pirate who looked at him like that, but once he had said it, he would have decided that he could not retreat. The pirate looks forcefully at Ray and opens his mouth.

"I told you that not everyone is here yet. So if you find someone else, you won't kill him as a suspicious person?"

　I'll never forgive you if you tell a lie.
　Ray thinks a little before he speaks to the pirates who look at him like that way.

"Well, you may consider it carefully,"
"...consideration? No way! Promise me!"

　The pirate man, who is still in his twenties, screams, accusing Ray of keeping what he says.
　But Ray, who was being criticized, was looking at the pirate, wondering if he thought he was being criticized.

"Well, think of what you've done so far. Do you think it's so easy to trust?"

　When they are told so, the pirates will remember what they have done so far and will be unable to say anything.
　It's only natural that there aren't many people here who aren't so dark.
　Seeing the pirates look hopeless again, Ray opens his mouth again.

"But you don't seem to be such a vicious pirate. That's why... That's right. First of all, if you tell me where you have hidden your treasure on this island, I will promise you that you will catch him as much as you can, unless he resists in vain and escapes."

　Ray looked around the hut where the pirates lived, but unfortunately there was no treasure they could have accumulated.
　In other words, the pirates were supposed to be hiding their treasure somewhere on this island.

(In fact, it's possible that they're hiding it on another island, but if they think someone might find it, they'd like to hide it close to them.)

　The pirates shut up when Ray looks at you and asks where your treasure is."Well, where are your heads? Aren't they in captivity?"

　Ray asks, even now realizing that none of the pirates talking have absolute authority.
　At first I thought the man who had been a little arrogant was the head of the pirates, but from what I had been talking about, I could see that it was a little different.
　So I thought Ray might not have caught his head yet, so I asked him... and he said that, and some pirates turned pale.

"Well, it seems that your heads are not in the capture. Then the first priority would be to catch your head. Now, I don't know what to do."
"Wait a minute! I am the one leading this pirate!"

　cried a man who thought Ray was a little bit of a pirate.

"Well... you're the brains," and yet you don't seem to be much loved by your men?"

　When you lead an outlaw pirate, it's only natural that you have to have a certain level of ability, and more than that, you have to be strong.
　None of the pirates seemed to have said they were smart.

"I don't think so. It looks like this, and I'm adored in my own way. It may not seem so much."
"...I see. I'll hear a little later whether that word is acceptable or not. I have more to do now than that. I hope you will realize exactly what kind of target you have been targeted by."

　Rey approaches the ship, leaving the pirates twitching their cheeks... before he notices the pirates fainting near Sett, and then ropes them together and heads for the ship again.
　It's not a solid port, it's a port built with the idea that it can be used for the time being.
　Therefore, if a typhoon comes, it will definitely be unusable, walking in the harbor and approaching the ship.
　Both ships are aging considerably, but they approach the one with particular marks of damage and repair.
　The pirates are watching Ray's behavior, not knowing what he's trying to do.
　To the pirates who know little about Ray, it's only as if he's trying to look inside the ship.
　The pirates wonder why they think of Ray as a house-hunting agent, but Ray gently reaches out to the floating ship, regardless of his gaze.
　Ray doesn't know if it's ready to board, or if it's built this way because of the simplicity of the harbor.
　But it would have been sufficient if I could only see that I could touch the ship if I reached out for a moment.
　Ray's behavior was completely incomprehensible to the pirates.
　What are you doing? What are you doing? What are you going to do?
　Despite such glances, Ray keeps the ship in the mistling.
　In a moment... exactly, in a moment, the ship disappears from the sea.
　When the pirates saw it, they seemed to have no idea what was going on and could only fall for it.

"Now, next,"

　and with the pirates in their trance, Ray headed for the ship which had been parked a little further away. . . .

"Wait a minute! What did you do?"

　One of the pirates can be heard making a fuss, but Ray arrives under the other ship and touches it... but frowns the next moment.

"Can't you put it away?"
