Wheat-tei in the twilight... It's the inn Ray usually stays at in guille.
　...recently I've been eating at Marina's house and there are quite a few rooms, so I was jokingly asked if I'd like to move in and live with her, but now Rey had no intention of moving from the evening wheat-tei to the evening wheat-tei.
　That's how comfortable it was at the Wheat House at dusk, and since it's the inn Ray has been staying since he first came to Gilm, I'm also attached to it.
　It is also important to note that there are stables that are safe even if a set enters.
　Marina's house is quite large, but there is no such thing as a set stable.
　However, in the case of Marina's house, the spirit magic of Marina makes the garden more comfortable, so considering this, it may not be necessary to have a stable in particularly.

"Oh, welcome home. You're back, aren't you?"

　At dusk, Lana, the proprietress of Wheat-tei, smiles and says so.
　There is no doubt that Ray is a good customer for Lana, too.
　...I've had a few problems, but they've had a lot of problems with people other than Ray.
　Lana is also pleased to see that she eats deliciously.

"Anywhere you went to Anesis. What kind of place was it?"

　As she says, Lana goes through the formalities quickly at the reception desk and hands Ray the key to the room.
　Basically, they have a long-term contract and pay for accommodation in advance, so there is no need for any complicated procedures are necessary.
　What's more, Ray had been to Anesis for less than a month.

"Well, it was big. Gillum is also under construction, but it's a little difficult... but it's only natural that Annecis is called the second largest city in the kingdom of Milliana."
"Oh, that's it. I heard that Gillum is going to become quite large with the extension work we're doing now."
"Oh, that's it. There's been a crowd of covolts coming out these days, right? Again today, when I was flying with Sett, I saw an adventurer fighting against the covolts."

　Lana looks a little disgusted at the words.
　But it's not that he doesn't like Ray, it's because he doesn't like the current situation where Cobold is breaking into the guillem.
　As long as Lana lives in Gilm, she understands that this place is more dangerous than a normal city, but... but it shouldn't be interesting to hear that monsters like Koboldt enter her city.

"Well, it seems like we've been coming in out of nowhere for a while now, because adventurers are protecting us... I hope there'll be other powerful monsters in the future, if it's just the Cobold."

　Lana says she's worried.
　Ray understood the feeling.
　Only Kobolt is here today, and it's easy to deal with the power of Gilm's adventurers, but if a high-ranking monster were to enter here, it would hurt the adventurers.
　It's a frontier, and that's why it's no surprise that Rank C, Rank B… in some cases, Rank A monsters appear.

(Well, then... should I let the set go to the person doing the extension work? That way, unless you're an idiot, you won't get close to the set if you feel the set exists.)

　But if all the adventurers wanted it, the answer would be negative.
　For those who didn't have enough money to spend beyond the winter, it's a bonus stage to be able to fight against Cobold in a place where there are few people in the city, as well as outside the guillem.
　Covold materials, magical stones, and punitive rewards are all quite cheap, but for those who still don't have any money, they only need to earn money by numbers, at least by themselves.
　You'd naturally be unhappy if you took Seto to such a place and kept him out of the cobold.

(Oh, should I have gone to see Mr. Dusker with Elena? I should have asked him what he wanted to do as a lord.)

　If she had listened, she wouldn't have to worry about it. Thinking that way, Ray took the key from Lana and headed for his room.

(Now that you mention it, what are you doing with Vihela and Bune?)

　Unlocking the door, Ray suddenly thinks about the two party members.
　Vichela and Bune were both now supposed to be staying at the Wheat House at dusk.
　You might want to go and see him after a little bit of healing.
　With that in mind, I opened the door...

"...what are you doing?"

　After a few seconds of silence, he asks, seeing the scene unfolded before him, the two faces he had just thought of a few seconds ago.
　Yes, in the room, for some reason, there were two figures that Ray had just thought of, Viehra and Bune.
　Vichela looks a little surprised at Ray's appearance... and then opens her mouth with a smile.

"Oh, welcome home. I thought it would take some more time."

　When Vihela tells her without showing any concern about Ray's surprise, Ray decides that there is no point in saying anything more.

(It must have been locked... no need to think about it when Bune was there. No, the fact that he could unlock the Wheat-tei at dusk is proof that his skill has improved.)

　The Wheat Pavilion at dusk is one of the finest inns in the guillem.
　That being the case, Ray had previously heard from Lana that security was naturally tight and the keys were seemingly ordinary keys, but rather sophisticated.
　Having been able to unlock such a key, Bune's skills as a thief must have improved.
　Previously, he was a combat-focused thief, but this means that Bune was not just playing while Ray was in Anesis.
　...however, having come to know it in this way, Ray was not sure if he should be happy or not.

"Oh... well, yes. I'm home."

　Ray had many thoughts, but I felt a little relieved to welcome him back.

"And what did you go all the way into the room while I was away? There's nothing interesting about it."

　If you're an ordinary adventurer, it's a long-term... or a room where you stay in units of several years, it's no surprise that a lot of your personal belongings are rolled up.
　However, Ray's personal belongings are basically stored there because there is a convenient and over-convenient thing called Mistilling.
　That being the case, there was no personal belongings in the room at all...not necessarily, but in general, it was quite small.
　Being in such a place is no different from being in a normal empty room, so what is interesting about being in this room was Ray's honest question.

(If it's a comic book or something like that, I'd be fishing under the bed... there's no such thing in this world. No, maybe there is, but it's right that I've never seen it.)

　There is no treasure in this world for men who have reached puberty.
　However, since there are many prostitutes or individual prostitutes, it is hard to say who is happier.

"I came to Ray's room to see him because I was a little free. ... I didn't expect him to come back."
"There's nothing fun in my room, right? I think you knew that."

　This is not the first time Vichela or Bune has come to Ray's room.
　That's what I've been doing so many times, so I shouldn't have to wonder if I knew there wasn't anything particularly interesting in my life.
　Nevertheless, Ray asked me why...Vihela opens her mouth with a smile.

"Oh, it's only natural that you're interested in the room of the person you love, isn't it?"

　Ray was at a loss what to say for a moment...

"I see,"

　In the end, I'll just give you a short answer.
　Vichela diverts from her story with a smile, wondering if Ray's attitude was amusing.

"And? What's wrong with Elena?"
"Huh? Ah... oh. You said you'd come and see Mr. Dusker for a second."

　Ray was a little bewildered by a sudden and unusual topic, but he managed to make it back like that way.

"Oh, that's what Elena has to do. ... And since Elena is staying at Marina's house, I wonder if she doesn't have to come here.""Well, why don't Vichela go and kill the Cobold? She was fighting where the extension was still under way."
"Are you here again?"

　Vichela looks displeased at Ray's words, erasing the smile she had put on her face.
　Bune does not change her expression to Viehra's attitude, but she gives off an air of dissatisfaction.

(I see. Vichela did not like to fight against Cobold, but Bune wanted to fight... or something like that.)

　Ray doesn't wonder about it because he knew that Bune wanted to make even a little money.
　Well, Vichela, who likes to fight, doesn't participate in the battle against Cobold...think so, and if Cobold is a low-ranking monster, it's no use behaving this way because of Vichela's character.
　Vihela likes to fight, but it's not about trampling on a weak opponent, it's about enjoying a battle against a strong opponent.
　That's probably why they couldn't move their fingers against low-ranking monsters like Kobolt.

"Didn't you like Cobold? It can't be helped because he's a low-ranking monster."
"Well, I've shown up a couple of times, just in case... if there were some top or rare species, I would have enjoyed it a little, but only the average Cobolt was there."

　That's what Ray finds frustrating.
　However, hearing it raises questions.

"But it's not a day or two that Cobold is attacking, is it? If he does so, there will be quite a few of them, and I think it's natural to think that the Cobold leading it is a superior or rare species."
"Well, I think so, and so did the adventurers in the other battles. ... Unfortunately, I couldn't find them. I tried my best, too, Bune, didn't I?"
"Yes,"

　To Vihela's words, Bune returns, as usual, in a short, one word.

"I don't know exactly how many covolts are knocked down every day, but that's not the number of ten or twenty, is it? When I think about that, I think there are a lot of suspicious points about it."
"I agree, but it's also true that there's no way we can find them unless they're there. ... Many of the bandits in the fight are frustrated about it."

　Bune, too. Vichela pokes Bune on the soft cheek.
　Without a sign of loathing Vichela's fingers, Bune was struggling to unlock the key she had.

"Well... and what about Marina? Wouldn't she be able to find out who is leading a flock of covolts with spirit magic and such as that?"
"No. Marina tried it, but it didn't work."
"...really?"

　The words of Vihela make me wonder if it's a lie.
　For Ray, the spirit magic used by Marina is as unconventional as his magic.
　I had seen people who actually used other spiritual spells, but they were far inferior to the spiritual spells used by Marina.
　The phenomenon of using spirits at will even makes you wonder if it is reaching the height of spiritual magic.
　and if I could not find anyone leading the Cobold herd in such a marina."

(Probably not within the physical searchable range of the marina, though I don't know how they lead the covolts in that situation.)

　Thinking so, Ray smiled, saying that what he thought was just a Cobold attack would be a little interesting.
