In the same way Ray gets his name out of Lizardman.

"Zozo. That's a short name."

　When Ray mutters after hearing Zozo's name, Gulamel nods as he watches the conversation next to him.

"Yes. But names vary from one race to another. I don't think you should say that much. And if you say it's a short name, so is Ray."
"Ah... well, that's right. So what are you going to do now? As long as Zozo is showing his attitude that he will obey me, I don't think he'll have that much trouble heading to Gilm."

　Zozo, who leads the lizard man, follows Ray, and the other lizard men are also in awe of Ray's ability to defeat him with one blow, so they don't have to go against him.
　However, when asked if he would follow the instructions of Gulamel, who was in charge of negotiating Gulamel, Ray could not nod honestly.

"Well, I think it's better for Ray to come with me."

　If Zozo only listens to Ray's orders, he can come with Zozo, and Zozo can order his men to come with him.
　Guramel told me so, but Ray couldn't nod straight to his words.

"I understand what Guramel means, but I can't leave it as it is. Considering that Lorornola and Zozo have each had two separate metastases, it's possible that someone else hasn't."
"That's..."

　Gulamel is at a loss for words, perhaps because Ray's mouth was painful.
　In fact, if a belligerent presence like Zozo has spread, adventurers here don't know if they can deal with it.
　No, even the Lorornolas didn't act like other adventurers were launching attacks because Ray was there, but if Ray wasn't here, in some cases the adventurers who were wary of the metastasizing Lorornolas wouldn't have attacked.
　Given the circumstances, it was certain that someone here should have more than a certain skill.
　Guuramel could not refute Ray's words because he knew it.
　Thinking for a few seconds, Gulamel looks at the knights.
　The knights who came here to guard themselves are very skillful.
　That was enough to make me think that I could win against multiple adventurers other than Ray here.
　But the knight shook his head knowing what Gulamel meant.

"Sorry, but we have been sent here to guard the negotiators, Gulamel, and we cannot, at our own discretion, remain here."
"Could you do something about it? It's up to you to see if the lizard men move quietly."

　There is also an option to leave Zozo and the other lizard men here and take only the lorol nola.
　However, given that metastasis has already occurred twice, it may not happen again.
　And when a lizard like Zozo came along, it was certain that there would be a lot of bad things.

"Then... bring in a high-ranking adventurer? He might be happy to come if he were around Vihela."

　Ray expected that Vihela, who was looking forward to fighting against a strong opponent, would be happy to come here if a belligerent opponent were to spread.

"Well, then, may I ask you a favor? For now, if I am here, so will the knights..."

　Guramel was about to say that, but when he looked at Zozo, he stopped saying that.
　Guramel doesn't know what Zozo is thinking.
　But it's certain that he's following Ray, and if Ray says he's going to Gilm on a set, he's definitely going with Zozo -- though he doesn't understand the language.
　That would undoubtedly cause trouble in Gilm.
　Most importantly, if Zozo was to go with him, he would have to hold onto his feet and move, but there was also a question whether Zozo would tolerate it.
　Maybe Ray notices this too, but after comparing Seto and Zozo, he approaches Zozo.

"I will go back to where I live, but Zozo, please wait here."

　I tell you so, but as a matter of course I can't communicate.
　Still, with gestures, Ray tells me to stay here.
　Zozo also kneels down on the spot as an example of Ray pointing to the ground, although he didn't seem to understand what Ray was saying at first.

"...I didn't tell you to kneel down."

　Feeling the difficulty of communication, Ray makes Zozo stand up once and then points to the ground again.
　With Ray's attitude, he was about to kneel again, but Ray stopped moving and just pointed to the ground.
　By repeating the same act several times, Zozo stands there and waits to see if he finally understands what Ray means.
　After confirming it, Ray points to himself and Seth in turn, then to Gilm, and finally to where he is again.
　She and Seto... head towards the person they pointed at, but fortunately Zozo seems to have understood Ray's point earlier and nods deeply.

"Yes, it seems to have come true. I knew it, but the gestures are amazing."
"So it's amazing that it's connected."

　One of the knights looks at Ray with wonder.
　However, it is not clear whether Ray really understands what he wants to say unless he understands the language.
　Traveling on a set will reveal for the first time whether Zozo stays there or takes any action.

"I think it'll be all right for now, so I'll bring in Vihela. I'll ask the guild to send me some additional skilled adventurers."

　Saying so, Ray approaches Sett.
　I can see the signs of metastasis, but Seto doesn't feel well because he didn't know exactly how many people are going to metastasize and what kind of existence is going to metastasize.

"Glu".
"Don't worry. Under such circumstances, you don't have to be afraid."

　Besides, he caresses Sett comfortingly, without saying that they came from another world.
　Ray's behavior must have been a good encouragement to Seto.
　After a minute's stroking, Seto's depression makes a false sound.

"Slurrurling.
"Well, it's all right if you felt good. So I'd like to go to Gilm. Will you fly?"
"Gruly!"

　At Ray's request, he purrs, "Leave it to me!" and crouches down to make it easier for Ray to ride.
　With a smile on Seto's quick change of heart, Ray rode on his back to Gilm.
　It was Lloronola who looked surprised at Seto and Ray's movements.
　I was indebted to Ray for using his part and protecting him from the attack of the lizard, but it had nothing to do with that, and I was just surprised at the sight of Seto carrying him.
　The others didn't know if he was surprised at the very existence of Seto, or if he was surprised that he was carrying Ray.
　Zozo also stared at Ray and Seto flying away.
　For Zozo, Ray told him to stay here, so he stayed here, but if he didn't have such an order, he wanted to go where he was going.
　But since Ray's orders are above his own expectations, Zozo has no choice but to wait here.

(Well, what should I do? With Ray, I could have had some casual contact with him.

　As Guramel sees it, Zozo is the only one who follows, and he has no intention of following anything else.
　The reason why he doesn't attack Gulamel and Lorornola is probably because Ray forbids them to do so.
　If Ray wasn't there, Zozo could attack other people immediately or immediately.
　Zozo had the power to make him think so.
　Of course, the knights defending Guramel do not let him do what he likes, but there are still some aspects of this incident that cannot be considered safe.
　Zozo alone has knights of bodyguards and adventurers, though somewhat understaffed.
　But if Zozo acted like he was giving orders to the rest of the lizards, it would undoubtedly be very difficult to protect them all of them.
　That's why Guramel refrains from speaking to Zozo and instead speaks to Lorornola.
　...but of course Guramel could not communicate with Llornola, so it would be a gesture.
　Lorornola, too, is not going to attack Gulamel because of his character.
　There was a scene where Zozo was standing apart from them, the adventurers and the knights were ready to help, and the rest of the lizard men remained calm and in one place until ordered.





"Hey, Ray! Can you come back?"When one of the guards saw Ray landing in front of Gilmoo's main gate, he screamed unconsciously.
　The news that something had happened in the forest of Trent had naturally come to the guards... and above all, seeing the line coming like a horse, it is only natural to think so.
　Most of the people in line at the time had already finished the process and entered the guillem, but some were still there, so some were watching Ray with interest.

"Oh, I think it'll be all right for a while. I need to get back there soon."

　As they speak, Ray and Sett quickly finish the process of entering the guillem and go in.
　Guardsmen and some of the people who knew the situation wanted to hear from Ray, but he didn't particularly talk to Ray, judging by his appearance that he wasn't in that situation now.
　However, for someone who wasn't so close to Ray, he hesitated whether he could talk to him or not.
　Ray, who has entered the guild without them, first heads to the guild.
　I didn't know how far the guild was informed about this incident, but if I wanted to pull the Vihela, I had to have her stop temporarily from asking for a tour of the city.

(However, if the information hasn't been conveyed, what's the reason for this? ... I don't think I'll be able to talk about Llornola and Zozo on my own.)

　What happened in the forest of Trent is undoubtedly a serious event in many ways.
　That being the case, Ray had a conflict with the guild over whether to speak, even if it was his Lenora or Lenora's best friend Kenny, or Lenora's best friend.
　If this had been someone who had metastasized from somewhere in Elgin as a normal metastasis, it wouldn't have been such a problem... Ray was convinced that Lloronola and the Zozo were probably from other worlds.

(A different world... It's not something to do with that eyeball, is it? No, it's been a long time since that battle, and it's not.)

　It produced or subpoenaed Kobolts endlessly, and its body was a huge eyeball with a large tentacles and optic tail, which was very troubling... yet eerie.
　It's safe to say that it's from a different world, considering that it also came in and out of a gap in space.

(No, Grimm, who got that eye-catching corpse in the first place, had a strange experiment... no, yes. I don't think so. I hope so.)

　With that in mind, Ray broke up with Sett and went into the guild.
