"And what are you going to do from tomorrow?"

　At night, as a large, round moon asserts its existence, the Lays were eating as usual in Marina's garden.
　Inside Ray's magic kiln, chunks of meat are now being baked.
　Of course there were a lot of other dishes on the table, and the dishes Ray had bought at various shops were in fresh condition.
　However, the food was also an additional supplement to the amount consumed in this dungeon case.
　...many shops were screaming at Ray's huge purchase of food, which would be a joyful cry.
　That's because Ray's buying of food has doubled today's sales... or, even if it doesn't go that far, it's obvious that it's definitely.
　And in fact, when Ray asked for food, there was no shop to turn it down and he was happy to sell it.
　For those who serve food such as restaurants, Ray is a great blessing.
　However, some of the restaurants unfortunately refused to open the restaurant tonight if they sold it to Ray.
　Sadly... I'm really sorry, and remembering the clerk's expression that he wanted me to tell him in advance next time, Ray is also disappointed.
　This is because Ray also liked the soup, which had been stewed for a long time, because the first ingredient had melted completely, and the ingredients were added to it to make it even more edible.

"Tomorrow? To be honest, I have a lot of things to do and I want to do. Like hunting for gamerions, helping with building extensions, the people of Levrellina on their way to Guillem."
"And the Gamerion hunt would be the last one because Ray simply wants to do it."
"...I know that,"

　Rey nods to Marina's words, a little dissatisfied.
　Gamerion hunting is partly because many people are now heading for it, which is causing delays in extension work.
　Most importantly, Ray's wow... is that those who came to Guillum with this extension, even those who would normally be impossible to come to Guillum, are participating in the Gamerion hunt.
　As a matter of course, there were many injured and dead people, and as a result, the extension work began to be delayed.
　Ray, however, can't help but understand the feelings of those who participate in the Gamerion hunters.
　Gamerions have the best taste in the sense of meat, and can be sold to guilds for quite a price.
　If you're confident in negotiating, it's not the guild that you'll be able to go to another store and get a higher price.
　It's far more rewarding in terms of compensation than doing the usual extension work.
　The most rewarding is the risk of fighting a vicious monster called Gamerion.
　But... for those who came to Gilm to do the extension work, it was only natural that they came to make money.
　If there was a way to make more money in less time, it would have been natural for those who, for whatever reason, were in need of money, wanted to make more money in less time, fearless, and so on, to go hunting for gamerions.
　It's true that it's not very interesting for the person who is going to work on the extension, since the strain will come to others.
　However, the reason why I am currently in Gilm is that I can only do the extension work, but that's not all I can do.
　As long as adventurers have the freedom to choose their request, they can't pretend to reject it if they're told they're going to hunt gamerions.
　Of course, if you're asking for a Gamerion hunt, there are limits to your availability by rank... but if you're going for a Gamerion hunt without a request, the guild can't help it.

"First of all, why don't you help us with the extension work tomorrow, and see how the Soulas are after the day after tomorrow? They must be quite close by now, right?"

　Ray thinks a little and nods to Vihela, who delights in Gamerion's meat soup.

"Well, I think that's the best thing to do. ... If possible, I'd like to see how the Soulas are and then come back to Gilm, and have Gamelion still there."
"To be honest, there's nothing we can do about it. We don't know when Gamerion will be gone. And it's not all at once. Some of them may stay here."
"...will it be a little later for Gamerion to disappear, or will we have to pray that there will be as many individuals as possible left as possible?"

　Nevertheless, there is hope in Ray's words.
　In fact, Ray, who has a partner named Seto who flies, has a great advantage over other adventurers because he has the means to search for Gamerion in the sky.
　Ray had absolute confidence that if most of the gamerions were gone, he would be able to find them.
　The question is whether you can get the job done by that point.

"Well, Ray seems to be busy with a lot of things. ... Erra, what's our schedule?"

　When Elena asks, enjoying the Gamerion saute, Arra swallows the salad in her mouth and then opens her mouth.

"Well, I have a few requests to see Mr. Elena, but... most of them can be ignored."
"...mostly, you mean you have to meet someone."
"Well, of course, if Mr. Elena really doesn't like it..."
"No, I don't care. I come to Guillum only to deter the aristocrats from acting foolishly. If meeting with them progresses without any problems, I won't turn it."

　At Elena's words, she nods back.

"All right. I'll prepare it like that."
"Yes,"

　It was a brief conversation, but that alone determines Elena's plans for tomorrow.
　Watching such a conversation, Vihela opens her mouth as she looks at Bune eating a sandwich made of Gamerion meat.

"Then I wonder if we're going around the city. Maybe it's because of the merchants running in, but it feels like security is worse than before."
"Not a merchant... but a bodyguard with a merchant?"
"Yes. I know you're a lot of blood because you're an adventurer... I've seen a few fights as the number of people is increasing. The guards and the adventurers who were commissioned to keep the peace..."

　The reason why they muddled their words along the way is probably because they were not able to get around.
　For Vihela, it's true that she feels close to her old home, though it's exaggerated to say that she's asked to keep the peace.
　That's probably why it wasn't very interesting to see the situation where I couldn't get around to my work.
　In fact, when Vichela used to do the work, there were a few times when adventurers who didn't know Vichela were involved in her appearance and appearance at first... but as a result, the number of people trying to defy Vichela decreased at an accelerated rate as they learned what they had been through.
　Vichela is also very helpful in every way, including Bune's.
　Therefore, many people adored Vihela regardless of their romantic feelings or lust.
　For Vihela, it's probably not very interesting that they're not doing enough work.

"Why don't you condone it, for it may have a negative effect on the number of adventurers as a result of the increase in merchants?"
"...the number of inns must be a problem,"

　Marina's words make everyone look satisfied.
　In fact, even before the merchants arrived, the inn had been run short by people who had gathered for extension work.
　"There were not enough inns, so we built a temporary building near the construction site where we could sleep...but we could not completely solve the shortage of inns."
　With new merchants coming under guard in such circumstances, it's only natural that there are not enough inns.
　What was fortunate was that there were many such merchants who had close relationships with Gilmoo and thought that they could make a profit from the extension work.
　...and some stout residents of Gilm pretended to let their acquaintances stay at their homes for a little less than their lodgings, but crimes have also been committed in that connection.

"I just came back to Gilmoo, but I think I'll be busy again from tomorrow."
"It's something to be pleased with, isn't it?"

　Marina muttered a little languidly.
　It wasn't just Ray who questioned the situation, but others were looking at Marina in wonder.
　You must have noticed the stare. Marina shakes her head as if it were nothing.
　No one, however, thinks it's really nothing to show such a blatant attitude.

"We're friends, so don't hesitate. ... Well, if it's something you can't say to a man, I won't force you to."

　Marina eventually breathes a little sigh and opens her mouth, wondering if there was anything in Ray's words.

"Actually, there are going to be a lot of problems during the winter,"
"... exactly?"
"Roughly speaking... well, it's related to the building of the guillem."At Marina's words, Elena's eyes slightly sharpened.

"Marina, by any chance... is there anything to do with the aristocracy?"

　Elena was the first to come up with this idea, after all, because the aristocrats had been in the way of the construction of the Gillum.
　Marina's lines suggest that the aristocrats were interfering in something strange this time as well, which may have caused a problem.
　That's what I asked for.
　If it really was just as I thought it would be, Elena's face, who came to Gilm as an aristocrat, had been crushed.
　That being the case, I'm willing to take out the mirror.
　That's what Elena thought, but...

"Oh, it's not the aristocracy at all,"

　Marina's words reassure Elena and soften her sharp gaze.
　Next to the marina, Arla was equally relieved.
　If the aristocrats really had some sort of intervention, that's because before Marina did anything, Arra wanted to do something by herself.
　... Arra's strength is as strong as it is easy to beat someone to death. 　
　That being the case, I guess we should say that in this case we had no need to lose our lives...

"So? Then what's the problem?"
"To put it simply, the problem is that there are more people remaining in Guilm than Dusker and workers expected. ... Well, if you think about it, people who come to Guilm come to earn money, they have work to do even when it's snowing, and there's not much danger, so those who want to earn don't have to go home. ... Of course, not all of them remain, but those who have earned enough have already left Guilm."
"The number is less than I expected?"
"Oh... if this is spring or summer, or at least winter when it's snowing, let alone autumn. If there aren't enough inns, some people will freeze to death... the question is what to do about that."

　Vichela tilts her head at the marina, who breathes a salad into her mouth.

"But you made a temporary accommodation, didn't you? Is it not working?"
"It's just extraordinary. There's a draft coming in, there's snow in some cases, and there's no heating system."
"I see. Then... it's tough, isn't it? You can't build an inn now..."
"In the worst case scenario, we'll be opening up the guild warehouse. It'll be more comfortable than a temporary hut."
"But isn't it hard to stand the cold?"
"They'll have to buy some kind of heating equipment at the guild's request, and if a few people share the money, they'll be able to buy that much. ... By the way, the warehouses are also considering charging for accommodation, though it's quite cheap."
"Really? I think it's okay if it's free anyway."
"... then there will be people who will stay in the warehouse all the time without working."

　Everyone nodded to Marina's words.
