1958 Episode 1958



The next day, as usual, he goes out of the guillem early in the morning and knocks down monsters gathering for blood and pieces of meat from the previous day's demolition...

"Yes,"

 It was Vihela who let out an annoying sigh.
 I was wondering if a strong enemy would appear again today... for it was a flock of goblins.

"...that's strange,"

 Watching such a flock of goblins, Ray wonders.
 Up until now, it would have to be a cobold here.
 Nevertheless, only Goblin has shown up in this way.
 Recent Gillum anomalies... obviously abnormal given the Cobold incident.

"Anybody want to fight the Goblin?"

 Now Ray decided that the destruction of the goblins would come first, but no one agreed.
 For those who come here as bodyguards, fighting against Goblin is a waste of energy.
 For those who come here because of their skills in dismantling, a poor fight against the goblins and an injury can hinder dismantling.
 For the people of the slums, you can eat goblin meat, but you still don't want to eat it.
 Moreover, he could not have touched the goblin, for he could have been rewarded for his honest dismantling, and for the meat of the gigant turtleneck, which was not comparable to the meat of the goblin.
 After all, no one was running for office, so Ray asked Sett to clean up the goblins.
 Firebreaths, water poloes, wind Arrows, ice Arrows, and so on, from above, were indeed worthy of being called tramples.
 The body of the goblin is then buried underground using a death-size topographical manipulation, and when ready, a gigant turtleneck is removed from the mystery ring.
 It hasn't been long since the demolition actually started, so the demolition itself hasn't progressed that far.
 ...that's why those who are in charge of dismantling work one after another.

"Well, I never thought there was anything but Goblin,"

 Vihela muttered beside Ray as he watched the dismantling of the Giant Turtle.

"Well, to be honest, it was surprising that there was no Cobold."
"...do you think yesterday's incident has anything to do with it?"

 When Ray was told about yesterday, the first thing he remembered was his pink tentacles.
 As the man who brought the red cloth said it had to do with the cobold, it would certainly have to do with the absence of the cobold here.

"If you think about it normally, it must be related. Is it most likely that I damaged the tentacles?"

 Red cloth was eaten to death by tentacles, including the one connected to the mastermind of this incident...or should I describe it as being sucked to death?
 At any rate, it was only natural to seek a reason for the lack of covolts, even though more people had been killed than originally planned.

"Well... Hey, Ray. I'll go this time, too, when I investigate the estate."

 Vihela swears to go instead of asking me to take her.
 Ray nods and replies to such Viehra words.
 Even now, I knew from the time I heard about the tentacles that Vihela wanted to fight them.

"But that tentacle is a little tricky, unlike any other opponent I've ever fought against. You know that, right?"
"Yes. Just touching the tip will suck you up a lot, right? I won't touch it, so it's okay."

 a confident voice announcing Vihela
 Ray smiles at the sight of Vihela.
 It was because I knew Vichela liked to fight, and I felt that her attitude was like Vichela's.

"All right, then, I'm going to the station when this is over today. Do you want to come with me?"

 When I stopped at the guild before I came here, Lenora told me to come to the station when I had time.
 That's why Ray invited Vihela...

"Well... to-day,"

 Vichela was, after all, a guardian of Bune.
 However, Vihela's mind was strongly inclined to fight the tentacles.
 Goblin was the only one here in the morning today, and above all, Bune is getting stronger.
 That's what Beune now can do, without a single wound, to trample down the goblins and covolts with overwhelmingly strong.
 Still, the reason why he didn't immediately nod to Ray's invitation is because he doesn't know what kind of monster is coming.
 In some cases, it's possible to have a Rank B... or even a Rank A monster.
 The smell of Gigant Turtle's blood and meat is that attractive.
 If possible, I don't want to leave Bune.
 That's what Vihela thought...

"Yes,"

 Bune comes to such a villa and mutters briefly as usual.
 Ray doesn't know the exact meaning of the word.
 But I still understood what he meant.
 I mean...

"Isn't Bune telling you to leave without worrying about yourself?"
"Yes, but ... are you sure you're all right?"
"Yes!"

 Bune never changes her expression, but shows that Ray is right.
 Vichela thought a little about Bune's words and actions... and nodded.

"All right. Then, I think I'll let Bune down on her words today."
"Yes,"

 That's all right. That's the attitude of Bune.
 Vichela pats Bune's head thankfully.
 Bune, though not expressing himself, accepted it in silence, perhaps for joy.

"I'll tell you, you've asked me to come to the station, but I don't always go to the house yesterday, and if I do, it doesn't necessarily mean that it's a battle."

 Nevertheless, Ray predicted that it would still be inevitable to fight in light of what happened yesterday's incident.
 If you think of those who attack you without question and answer, it is not always the case that there is no such thing in the other residences.

(Well, in Vihela's case, that's what she wants.)

 Ray recalls those who fought yesterday, but honestly it would be a little tricky to ask if Vihela would be satisfied with his strength.
 It's true that Ray was definitely stronger than the guards, but he was still strong enough to lose.

"Then wait a minute."

 That's what Ray says, and once he leaves, he calls out to the guild staff.

"May I leave Vichela and I to the guard station?"
"Yes, I've heard of it, so that's no problem. I don't think I'm as busy as I was yesterday, for some reason, because there's no covolt coming today. I'm sorry that the maze that Mr. Ray made is useless."

 A maze created between Gilm and the demolition site of the Giant Turtle lies ahead of the guild's gaze.
 However, it is not such an elaborate maze.
 The goal is to disperse the number of Cobolts when they attack in groups.
 With such an appropriate maze, Ray is at a loss for words when he sees the guild staff's disappointment.

"I'd be happy if you could say so. Well, if that doesn't help, that's fine. Then I've left it to you anyway. I know you're having a hard time, but please take good care of me."

 Guild personnel involved in the dismantling of the Giant Turtle need to lead and respond immediately to any problems.
 In that sense, the work of guild workers is far from easy.
 Ray also knows this, so he's telling the guild staff that he'll be sure to follow suit.
 The guild staff will never cut corners as long as the work is a reward for Ray.
 Even in such a situation, it was a great pleasure for me to have Ray come out of his way to talk to me.Speaking to Guild officials for a few minutes, Ray takes Seto and Vihela to Gilm.
 ...then I am convinced in my heart that the spectators who came to see the demolition of the Giant Turtle looked a little disappointed.
 The audience, like the dismantling of the Gigant Turtle, must have been one of the pleasures of seeing the most beautiful woman, Vihela.
 In that sense, I understand why so many people look envious and jealous at Ray.
 Ray, however, did not seem particularly concerned because he was used to being looked at in that way.

"Huh, is this going to be a date?"

 Walking next to Ray, Vihela grabs Ray's arm with a happy smile.
 Feeling Vihela's rich twin hills crumble with her elbows, Ray gently looks away and opens his mouth.

"I think it's a little dangerous to go on a date."
"Glu?"

 Really? It's Seto walking on the other side of the villa that's howling so.
 For Seto, being able to go out with Vichela and Ray is such a delight that he doesn't really care about the noise.

"Oh, I don't know if it's going to be dangerous yet. You just asked me to come to the station, did you? Then I don't think you'd say questioning... but maybe that's the case?"

 Vihela said so with a smile, but she was convinced that there would be some disturbing incident, as she was calling Ray.
 I'll finish the formalities at the front gate and head to the post I went to yesterday.
 Some passersby want to play with Seto, but unfortunately Ray refuses and walks on.
 And if Ray continues to walk, Vichela naturally continues to walk... as before, envy and jealousy turn to Ray, who is arm in arm with Vichela.
 If this is a place other than Gilm, which I've been to for the first time, some people will get entangled in Ray.
 But none of the inhabitants of Gillum would do such a fatal thing... but there was no such fatal person here.

"Oh, Ray... Is Vihela here, too..."

 A guard standing in front of the station looks pleased to see Ray... and then looks at Vichela with a complex expression.
 Vihela was a very difficult person to deal with for the guards.
 That's not something that has been driven out of Vihela's upheaval in the past few dozen times.
 However, in such cases, it is the other party, not the Vihela that is causing the problem, so as a guard, you can only be careful.
 I've warned many times that this is caused by dancers and prostitutes, but if they say it's a magic item or a good fight, the guards can't deny it.

"Well, if there's a rough situation, Vichela is definitely going to be a force. Can I go into the camp instead? And the more we have, the better. It's definitely going to be especially helpful to have more force against that tentacle."

 When we fought yesterday, the number of tentacles was not so high.
 No, it's still a tough opponent to deal with, but with Ray's ability, there was no problem.
 However, it was only as of yesterday.
 If more tentacles came out, it was only natural that more people could cope with them.
 It was only if it were to be decided that he should step into yesterday's mansion.
 The guard in front of the station did not participate in the investigation of the house yesterday, but he was still listening. He nodded reluctantly.

"Okay, let me in."
"Oh, come to think of it, what happened to the people who took part in the investigation yesterday? Are there any penalties?"
"No, there will be some precautions, but it will probably come after this case is over."

 Ray was relieved to find out that there was no problem now.
