2087 Episode 2087



a lake of overwhelming size before one's eyes
 Ray doesn't know how large this Elgin actually is.
 However, since there was no doubt that this lake had suddenly spread, it was impossible not to be wary of it.
 When Ray looked up at the lake, he was also identified as having a shadow that was clearly not a fish.
 The lake would make it possible to fish, but it was clear that it was not an absolutely safe fishing ground given its shadow.

"Ray, how was it?"

 As Ray descends to the ground, one of the adventurers timidly asks.
 Ray opens his mouth to such a person.

"Anyway, I'm sure it's a very large lake. ... I just wonder if it's OK."
"Is it a problem?"
"Oh, if this is a lake, let alone it has metastasized, I wonder what the current of the water is going to be."

 Lakes are essentially just out of nowhere and always provide fresh water.
 However, when the lake itself is transferred, the source of water in the world where it was originally located no longer exists... is good now, but in some cases, the lake's water will disappear over time, and in some cases it will rot.
 Of course, it's a lake that has moved to a different world, so there's a good chance that we can manage without water sources such as groundwater, springwater, and rivers by magic or something else.

"Oh... water? I'm curious. I wonder what will happen in this case. I'd like to use it for Guillum for a long time now, since this huge lake has moved."
"Well, as far as I can see from above, it's not just fish that's in the lake, it's something else... there were monsters."
"No,"

 an adventurer who doesn't seem to like... a real adventurer
 If this is on the ground, any adventurer in Gilm could fight, but this time the enemy is in the lake.
 It's not impossible to fight because the enemy's location is where they are, but there's no doubt it's still a clear disadvantage.
 If you could move freely underwater with some kind of magic or magic item, it might be a different story.
 That's why Ray is known to be good at the magic of fire, and he can actually create a fire whirlwind.
 That's why another adventurer who's heard that Ray can imitate evaporating all the water in the lake.
 But Ray has no intention of meeting his expectations at the moment.
 If you do so, the lake itself will be useless.
 It is a lake that has come out of the ordinary.
 Is the water supplied from somewhere and usable as a solid lake for a long time, or will the water become muddy and useless in the course of time?
 It wasn't clear to Ray yet, but his judgment alone wasn't enough.

"And, yes, sir,"
"Yes,"

 Rounding up the word adventurer, Ray calls out Zozo.
 Zozo, who was also fascinated by the sudden metastasis of the lake, still approaches him with Ray's words.

'What is it?'
"What is the name of this lake?"

 For Ray, all the transitions so far have been from the world where the Zozo were located, and the Tower of Birth has also been from the Grand Dragonian Empire.
 What's more, the question was based on the judgment that if a lake of this size existed in his own country, it would be natural for him to know about it.

'I'm sorry, but I don't know of such a lake,'

 To Ray's question, Zozo answers briefly, but surely so.

"What?"

 A little voice leaks from Ray's mouth, perhaps you didn't expect him to know.
 Still, he didn't doubt Zozo because he knew he still had a deep sense of loyalty, though it hasn't been long since he started following Ray.
 That's why Zozo is so loyal to Ray that he can die without question.
 For Ray, honestly, I couldn't help but think so.

"Well... can you ask Gaga?"
'All right. Please wait a moment.'

 Zozo approaches and calls out to Gaga, who, like himself, looks overwhelmed by the lake.
 Gaga probably recovered from Zozo's call.
 She answers Zozo's questions briefly, albeit with surprise.

'He doesn't know about lakes like this, either. There are some lakes in the Gran Dragonian Empire, but all of them are smaller than this.'

 Gaga is intelligent, contrary to her personality.
 He was also the third prince and knew many things.
 This area cannot be compared to Zozo, who is a prince but has very little right to succeed to the throne.
 With that in mind, Ray looked back at the lake, questioning what kind of lakes existed in his country.

"Yes, it's a lake. ... There's a strange fellow."

 A long tail was visible from the surface of Ray's muttering eyes.
 It's quite far away, so I don't know exactly how long the tail is, but I still think it's about 5 meters long.
 At first I thought it was the tail of a fish, but at least Ray knows that the tail of the fish is not hairy, and above all, it is impossible that the hair is wet and not stuck to the tail and remains normal.

"What is that?"

 An adventurer near Ray looks at the same thing as Ray, just dumbfounded.
 Being in front of the eye was something that even a man of some experience as an adventurer had never seen.

"You don't know Zozo or Gaga about this lake, do you?"
'Yes. Maybe there are lakes like this outside of the Gran Dragonian Empire...'

 Zozo shows regret over Ray's inability to help, but Ray shakes his head, telling him not to worry about it.

"If this lake is in the Gran Dragonian Empire and you don't know it, then you don't have to know it."

 As he told me so, Ray looked at the lake again.
 The tail has already disappeared and is now only creating ripples on the surface of the lake.

(If Zozo and Gaga don't know about this lake, there are three possibilities that they can come up with at once.)

 Ray looks at the surface of the lake and arranges what he can think of in his head.
 One was the transition from the world of the Zozo, but the transition came from a country other than the Grand Dragonian Empire.
 Two, not the land of the Zozo, but the world... some lake in Elgin has been transferred.
 Three, not Elgin or the world with the Zozo, but completely different...It has metastasized from the third world.
 Among them, Ray has a strong desire to miss the third idea if possible.
 Even now, I'm troubled by the transition of the zozo from the world, but if it were to be transitioned from another world... that's not fashionable.

"Oh, Ray. Anyway, I'm going to let you know about this, right?

 It was a man of cattle who asked Ray, who was contemplating when he saw the lake.
 The cet's cry frightened the horse into moving, but after some time it had been able to move it safely. ...I'm still a little afraid.
 That's why if we can get a little further away from Seto, we might as well start running at full speed.

"Well, nothing will happen any more, so do it. ... I don't think you'll believe it so easily if you mention it."
"...what shall I do?"

 A cow's beast cannot deny Ray's words.
 If this were a smaller lake, we would still be able to convince you that the tower of birth had been relocated.
 But what is now spreading before the Reyes is a huge lake.
 If you're told that all this stuff has metastasized and you're immediately convinced, the answer is no.

"In that case, if you say Ray is involved, wouldn't you agree with 'Because it's Ray?'"

 The adventurer I was listening to interrupts me.
 Some of the reasons Ray couldn't understand, but for some reason... for some reason the others who had heard the story seemed to understand.However, considering the troubles Ray had been involved in, it was only natural in a way that he could be convinced by 'Because it's Ray.'

"Do as you please. Anyway, if you don't believe him, will he come here in person... will you?"

 Ray asked if he had decided to leave his reasons alone.
 If it were a report from a knight directly under Dusker, he would take it seriously.
 But Ray's question causes the knight to shake his head in great agony.

"I think it's better to do that, but if something happens after I'm gone, there's a lot of bad taste."
"That's... well, that's true,"

 In fact, this is how unexpected scenes are happening to Ray, who has experienced many unexpected events, such as the metastasis of the lake.
 If something else were to metastasize later, you'd be surprised, but at the same time convinced.
 The absence of the knight at that time could be a fault of the knight... and of his boss, Dusker, as a person involved in this transition.
 That's why the knight reluctantly refused Ray's words.
 ...it would have been all right if there were two knights here.
 The moment you think so, the knight emerges from the forest of Trent as if to solve it.
 For a moment Ray wondered who it was, but if he looked closely he was a knight working with woodcutters and adventurers in the forest of Trent.
 The knight comes out of the forest of Trent and sees the lake near the tower of his birth... stops moving.
 It's only natural that this knight knew about the tower of his birth, but he never thought there was a lake right next to it.

"Sorry, wait a minute,"

 The Knight in charge of the Tower of Birth says so briefly and heads towards him.
 There's nothing for anyone here to complain about such a knight.
 We saw the moment the lake was metastasizing, so we were confused but to some extent convinced.
 But to those who knew nothing about it, that's why the lake suddenly appeared.
 It would be impossible not to be surprised by that surprised.
 Still, once the situation is explained by the knight, only the frontier knight named Gilm will settle down to some extent.
 ... for the time being, Ray thinks so, assuming he didn't hear the word "because it's Ray."
 Finally, with a calming knight, the knight here comes back.

"For the time being, I'll leave it to him, and I'll go report to him, and he'll understand a little that the lake has spread over there."
"If you will do that, I will you?"

 A cow adventurer says happily at the words of the knight.
 In fact, he probably understands that it is more credible to have a knight explain it to him than to explain it to him.
 At the same time, the reason why you are not good at explaining yourself is because you understand it.
 The Knight from the Forest of Trent must have decided that the situation could not be left alone. The matter will soon be settled.
 Ray, who had seen the knight go away in a carriage, once again spoke to the remaining knight... from the forest of Trent.

"I'm glad you stayed here, but is the forest of Trent better? Was the shock wave there?"
"Well, but there's nothing really happened over there, so you don't have to worry about it. But ... I'm afraid you'd better explain what I'm going to do, so could someone go over there to explain? I can't move from here."

 One of the adventurers was soon to make his way to the forest of Trent.
