"Well... the Black Wolf,"

　Ray felt a little displeased by Elena's words, but he deserved to be displeased when he was told that assassins were freely moving in and out of his mansion.

"Calm down, see? Passersby are scared of Elena, too."

　Ray's words make Elena look a little more calm.
　If this was the Duke of Kelevel, Elena wouldn't have had to worry so much about her, but now they are in the streets of Annesis.
　Moreover, passersby recognize Elena as an Elena, as she is not particularly disguised.
　...at first Ray suggested that he should disguise himself, but it was Arla and Miranda, and all the other maids who had been with him, who rejected it.
　It was said that Elena could not hide her beauty in disguise.
　I tried to disguise it lightly, but Elena's hair was originally golden enough to look like the sun's light itself, and she had a lot of hair with a vertical roll.
　I've prepared hats, but I can't say it's impossible to put everything in there, but I'm sure it was pretty tough.
　You can't hide Elena's most distinctive blonde hair and force her to disguise herself elsewhere.
　It was clothes that stood out in particular.
　The rich Souoka can't be seen trying to hide it with clothes, and if they're not good at it, they'll be more emphasized and attractive.
　It's like that in winter clothes, so if it had been summer when you'd be lightly dressed, what would it have been like?
　Anyway, Elena stands out even more when she's poorly disguised.
　Given that, it was judged that few people would think it strange not to disguise themselves if they were to stand out.

(I think there might be magic items for disguise.)

　Thinking this way, Ray opens his mouth to calm Elena, who is a little displeased.

"Look, you're going to buy souvenirs now, aren't you? If you buy souvenirs in such a situation, it's just going to bother the staff."
"Well, that's..."

　Elena may have understood that she was in a bad mood, but she changes her mood slightly with Ray's words.
　There was a time when Ray and I decided that we should enjoy it because we went out into town together.

"So what kind of souvenirs do you want to buy, or who do you think you should buy them for?"
"Well, yes. It's the marinas that are essential. And Dusker, is that the rest of us are the ones whom Ray thinks he's looking after?"
"I'm the one you're looking after,"

　As he spoke, Ray remembered the wheat-tei people at dusk, the two closest to the Guild's receptionists, and the others, including the people at the Manjokutei, in their own way.

"...there's going to be quite a few of us for somehow."
"I suppose,"

　At Ray's words, Elena says so with a smile.
　It was a sign that Ray was involved with so many people in Guillum that Elena was happy.
　For Elena, who knows Ray's secret, the words that come out of Ray's mouth are nothing but delight.
　A certain receptionist in the guild needed some attention.

"Then I'm going to buy quite a few... well, if you put the rest in a mistling, that's all right."

　Even if it's a kind of food that has a shelf life, there's no problem as long as you put it in the mistling.
　You can buy freshly made food, put it in a mistling, and take it back to Gilm as a souvenir.
　Therefore, even if you buy a large amount of food as a souvenir, you can eat it without any problems even after many years if you put it in the mistling.

"Food? Well, I thought it might be something of a small article."
"Ah... I see. But I think souvenirs are basically better for consumption, like food or drinks."

　It came from Ray's experience.
　When I was in Japan, I had received travel and other souvenirs from friends and relatives.
　However, even if you get pennants and nui-gurumi, Ray will find it difficult to find a place to put them.
　"In the end, such things were put in cardboard boxes and kept wherever they were stored, and in that sense, I honestly felt that many sweets, dishes, or things that I could eat and drink, such as juice, were better."
　I couldn't express my dissatisfaction, though, because they bought me a souvenir.

(The least salvation is that I didn't buy wooden swords as souvenirs.)

　Ray had never actually received a wooden sword as a souvenir, but there were several such situations in the comic book category.
　If you could bring me a wooden sword...

(Huh? Weren't you in trouble?)

　If you live in Tokyo, you may not be able to bring a wooden sword, but if you live in a rural area... you can use it to kill snakes or throw them away, or to drive away monkeys, raccoons or foxes.

(I think that a wooden sword might have been more useful than a pennant or something.)

　Thinking this way, Ray walks through Anesis with Elena in search of souvenirs.

"Well, I'm going to buy souvenirs. What kind of souvenirs do you think would please you? Do you mind if I buy food or something?"

　Ray asked Elena that from her experience in Japan, but it was a little ridiculous that she replied.
　Not knowing why he was being looked at like that, Ray asks candidly.

"Is there anything strange about it asked.
"Well, I don't think it's a problem except for the marinas, but in the case of the marinas, it's not food, it's solid ... I think that's what makes them happier."
"Is that so? Well, if Elena says so, so be it."

　In Ray's case, food is better, but if Elena says so, it's better.
　In terms of women's hearts, Ray is completely unfamiliar.

"Then... ornaments? No, but I prefer someone who can use them regularly."

　Marina, Vihela and Bune are partying with Ray as adventurers.
　That being the case, Ray, who had thought that he would be given accessories... remembered two of his three companions and immediately retracted what he had said.
　Marina usually wears a party dress, which doesn't change even if it's a battlefield.
　Vihela also wears layers of thin clothing, similar to that worn by prostitutes and dancers.
　. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
　The only thing Bune would not wear jewelry because he was dressed like a thief.

"Oh, yes. Is it best to make it into an ornament? What do you think?"

　Ray asked, but the answer was Elena with a big smile.
　But even with a smile on his face, his eyes are not smiling.
　Ray asks Elena, taking a step back unknowingly.

"Well... what was the bad taste of the ornaments?"
"No, it's no problem. Oh, it's no problem. ... I just thought I was jealous of the marina and the violas."

　Ray soon notices Elena with a smile.
　Ray was unfamiliar with women's minds, but he still didn't realize what Elena envied in the present situation.

"Ah... it's not a souvenir for now, but shall we buy something for Elena to celebrate going out with her today?"
"Do you like it? I'm more fortunate than Marina and Vihela to go out with Ray like this."

　Elena asks, "Is it really okay?", as the smile that I've been smiling on so far disappears.
　There was no doubt that Elena felt a little guilty of Marina and Vihela, who loved her own man.
　Ray and I travel and introduce them to our families alone -- including Arla, Yero and Seto.
　That's what I was doing.
　...however, Ray has been to Marina's home village of Dark Elf, or to Vihela's home village of the Vestian Empire, where he met his father, brother and sister.In that sense, Elena was actually the last to come.
　Still, Elena has no complaints about it, just because she and Ray have had time together.

"That's all right, that's all right, though... I don't know where the ornaments are sold, so I need to look for them.
"Well, I've heard from the maid that street vendors sell a lot of things from spring to autumn.

　Saying so, Elena looks up at the sky.
　It's a cloud ceiling that makes it likely to snow at any time.
　It's not very clear, though not very clear.
　No, as long as it's winter now, there won't be any street vendors even if it's sunny in this situation.
　However, it was a different story whether or not decorations like those sold at street vendors would suit beautiful women such as Elena, Marina, and Vihela.

"Then... how about magic items?"

　Magic items for decorations are not unusual, and if they are magic items, Ray can have some insight.
　Then it's only natural for Ray to think that he should buy it.
　Moreover, if you think about giving something to your fellow partymates, it would be desirable to have some effect.
　A close woman... it's definitely a tasteless thing to give to real lovers, but it wasn't a bad thing to think of as a fighter.
　I wonder if Elena had any objection to Ray's opinion, and she seemed happy, unlike before... she smiled in the real sense.
　After all, it must be a great pleasure to be able to receive a present from a loved one, as well as an ornament.

"I'm glad to hear that,"

　Elena, small, but unequivocally speaking.
　His cheeks are blushing with joy and embarrassment.
　I didn't know what Ray was talking about, but when Ray and Elena were talking about something, passersby, who were staring at them, were fascinated by Elena's expression, and some of them bumped into other passersby or bumped into buildings.
　Still, those who bumped into them did not consider themselves unlucky.
　for I could see with my own eyes a very rare sight of Elena turning her cheeks red.
　That's enough to make you think that if you had a camera, the scene would have been a treasure for life.
　...not to mention the buildings, it was only a good nuisance to the bumped passersby.
　Are you aware or not that the situation is happening around you're not aware of it.
　Anyway, Ray sees Elena smiling happily, and opens his mouth when he smiles contently.

"Well, shall we go to the store that sells magic items right away? ... Do you know where they are?"

　Elena shakes her head again at Ray's words.

"I've been there a few times, but at that time I was travelling in a carriage. I don't know much about it."
"Oh... I see. That's right."

　Elena, Duchess of Kelebel and nicknamed General Princess.
　It's only natural that it's unusual to walk around anasis on your own feet, as it is today.
　It's normal practice to drive directly to your destination in a horse-drawn carriage.

"Then I'm going to ask a lot of people and find a magic store. If you know you have one, you don't have to worry about it that much."

　In villages and small towns, there are sometimes no magic shops themselves.
　Unless this is a kind of ignition magic item, Ray is definitely looking for an expensive magic item.
　If that's the case, even if you open a shop in a village or a small town, you won't be able to get along with it.
　But this is Annesis, the second largest city in the kingdom of Milliana.
　There must have been a magic store like Ray was looking for.
