"Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh,"

　The day after Ray had knocked him down... after breakfast some people who knew about yesterday wanted to see him dead, and Ray didn't have to refuse it, so he took him out of the mistling.
　All the adventurers here are skilled, and even those skilled adventurers are surprised to see the corpse of Kerberos in this way.
　Of course, adventurers aren't the only ones surprised.
　The lizardmen also seem to be very interested in Kerberos' corpseemingly, too.

"By the way, have any of you ever dismantled Kerberos?"

　Ray, who was not good at dismantling, asked, but the answer was that everyone shook their heads.
　It's not easy to reach even near Gilm, which is a remote area, because it's the highest-ranked monster among Rank B monsters.
　Suddenly one of the adventurers opens his mouth.

"I can't do Kerberos, but I've done it before. I don't think I can. I can do it if I get paid. I don't have much to do here to guard the Tower of Birth anyway."

　Ray is convinced.
　Kerberos is not a wolf but a dog.
　It's not exactly a wolf or a dog, but it's still a dog.
　Still, wolf monsters and dog monsters have similar ways of dismantling.
　Given the circumstances, you can leave it to someone who will dismantle it for you.
　Even if it is a guild, it can be dismantled, but in that case it will cost money as a matter of course.

"What would you like to pay?"
"I'd like to say that the fangs of Kerberos... but I wish they were meat."
"Oh, then I too,"

　When Kerberos' meat is rewarded, many others stand for demolition.
　With a few exceptions, basically the higher the monsters, the more delicious the meat becomes.
　The Kerberos meat, which ranks high among the Rank B monsters, should of course have tasted superb.

(Meat, or Ka)

　Watching the adventurers, Ray suffers.
　To be honest, the magic stone has already been consumed by the art of the beast, so the most important thing to want when you dismantle Kerberos is meat.
　Ray likes to eat, and so does Seto... no, he likes to eat more than Ray.
　Other than that, I wanted to use it as an ingredient when I dined at Marina's house.
　Nevertheless, Kerberos is about three meters long.
　When I thought about that, Ray thought it would be better to give him some meat as a reward and have it dismantled here."
　It was true that I wanted to eat Kerberos meat as soon as possible.

"Okay, but I can't do that much. That's about it."

　As you say so, just... I'll show the size of about a kilogram by hand.
　Kerberos could well weigh a hundred kilograms... or two hundred kilograms, or perhaps three hundred kilograms.
　However, it was only about bones, internal organs, hair, nails, tusks, and other parts other than meat.

"Well... I want a little more, if possible. That's all right with me."

　One of the adventurers nods to Ray's suggestion.
　As an adventurer, I would have liked to get a little more meat if possible.
　But it's no use trying to be greedy here and being told that you don't need it.

(I mean, does Ray know the value of this meat? To send him a lump of meat so easily.)

　Rank B monsters are not so easy to get, even in remote guillems.
　It's a rare thing that you might encounter if you go to a place where there are so many monsters.
　Naturally, the ingredients, magical stones, and meat sell very well.

(Well, in Ray's case, it doesn't seem like he's in trouble for money, so he might know everything.)

　With that in mind, we immediately begin preparing for the demolition.
　Ray is just looking at it, not trying to break it up, but he's also a study.
　...and Ray, who has risen at a rate that is incomparable to other adventurers, may not know what he should know when he is a low-ranking adventurer.
　As for dismantling, I've been taught by various partners, and I've been dismantling monsters that I've caught myself, but I'm just wondering if I've managed to become a full-fledged monster.
　That's why I had to learn to see other adventurers dismantling.
　As the adventurer said earlier, for example, anyone who can disassemble wolf or dog monsters can disassemble Kerberos because they are of monsters.

(A chicken can be disassembled normally, but in this world, disassembling a chicken is of no use. But a bird-shaped monster... Is there a bird-shaped monster the size of a chicken?)

　While Ray is thinking like that, the demolition of Kerberos proceeds.
　The adventurers' performance is smooth because they are used to it.
　Having three heads, he seemed a little confused about peeling the fur off his neck.
　If Ray had killed Kerberos by any means other than amputating his head, it might have taken more time to dismantle.

"That's amazing, Seto."
"Glu".

　I watched Seto dismantle Kerberos, replying to Ray's words.
　I've been watching it for a while, but... suddenly I see the lizardmen surrounding the dismantlers with interest.

"What's the matter?"

　Ray called out to me.
　Zozo, who understands Ray's words on the slate, bows his head in a bit of trouble.

'Sorry, Ray. Was it Kerberos in our world? It was very interesting because there was no monster like that.'
"Isn't there anyone, Kerberos? ... well, it's only natural if you think about it carefully.

　The Lizard Man, a tribe that Ray knows... but is clearly smarter than the Lizard Man in this world, and more like building a country... I thought the Zozo's world was just like the world because of the superior compatibility of the Lizard Man in this world.
　But if you think about it, it's not funny if there are monsters in this world or not.

'Yes. I've never seen a dog monster with three necks like this. Of course, I don't know everything about the world, so maybe there's a monster like that somewhere I don't know.'

　Ray shows satisfaction to Zozo, who tells him so, and at the same time worries about the world of Zozo... the world of the Gran Dragonian Empire.
　If Kerberos is not in the other world, then there is a good chance that there will be monsters in the world of the Gran Dragonian Empire.

"It's going to be interesting if we can go to your world one of course.
'Well... I don't know. Our world may be unpleasant to Mr. Ray.'
"Really? Well, if you get that kind of opportunity, I don't think it's easy to get to the world of the zozos."

　If you manage to control the whips in the underground space of the Trent forest, you have a good chance of going to another world.
　In particular, the world of the Grand Dragonian Empire is likely connected to Whisp, as the Zozo Lizard is transitioning.
　It was only natural that the difficulty of going to the world of the Grand Dragonian Empire was lower than going back to Ray's hometown of Japan.
　...but now that Whisp's investigation has not progressed at all, I have no idea when it will be.

'There are so many monsters in this world, weak... there are monsters like goblins, there are monsters like Seto.'
"Yes, but that's no different in the world, right? If there's a weak monster, there's a strong monster... Wait a minute."

　Stop in the middle of the words and look at Kerberos again.
　He is now furring the hind legs of Kerberos, and the adventurer's movements have been very informative.
　He doesn't put any effort into it, and on the contrary, he seems to be doing it comfortably... snorting.
　Nevertheless, the skill is clearly superior to other adventurers.Ray had been watching the movement with all his concentration on the kind of movement that would be helpful to him.

"Gruly!"

　Suddenly, Seto's throat rings.
　It's not a cry to play as usual, but a voice to warn.
　Naturally, both Ray, who was concentrating on dismantling, and those who were actually dismantling, react to Seto's voice.
　We all know very well how keen Seto has five senses when we start living here.
　It was impossible to tell him not to react, given the sudden cry of such a set.

"An enemy!"
"I don't know, but I'm sure there's something. ... Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

　By Ray's direction, Zozo gives instructions quickly.
　Ray doesn't understand the instructions by his cry.
　...if I had a slate, I could translate it and understand the instructions well.
　At any rate, there's something to do now before you worry about such instructions.
　Ray, just in case, took his death-size and twilight spear out of the mistling and held it in place.
　Those who disbanded Kerberos head to the lake a little further away, partly because his hands are stained with Kerberos' blood, fluid and fat.
　If Sett's vigilance had been directed toward the lake, he would not have been able to imitate it, but his vigilance had been directed toward the forest of Trent.

(What's coming? No, there's not that much sign. There's a lot of sign of being away from it. Is this... being chased?)

　Armed and gazing at the forest of Trent, Ray looks for signs of approaching.
　The sign ahead was desperately running away, and from behind it was a sign of murder.
　It was clear what it meant.
　The biggest of all would have been the fight against Kerberos in the woods of Trent last night.
　Until now, there were monsters in the forest of Trent in their own way, but there were no monsters of that high rank.
　But last night they fought against a Rank B monster called Kerberos.
　With that in mind, it was only natural to be cautious about activities in the forest of Trent.

(You'd better let Mr. Dusker or the Guild know about this.)

　There are still many woodcutters in the forest of Trent.
　We have adventurers with us as bodyguards, but we still don't know if we can defend the woodcutters if they are suddenly attacked by Rank B monsters.
　Still, it is true that Trent's forest trees are needed for the Gilm extension.
　It would have required more skilled adventurers to serve as bodyguards, but it would have taken considerable coordination just to gather the adventurers entrusted with guarding the Tower of Birth.
　The thickets of Trent's woods begin to shake, then, as I ponder how to gather the guards of the woodcutters.

"Here he comes!"

　Ready for everyone to respond to Ray's words... before long, the five adventurers appeared through the bushes.
　And the moment they see the Reyes through the bushes, they scream desperately.

"Oh, save me! I'm being chased by Cobold!"

　Those who hear the story are somewhat dumbfounded.
　From the perspective of the adventurers here, it is not difficult to defeat ten or twenty Cobold opponents.

(Have they just become adventurers?)

　With that in mind, I checked with the men, and found that the weapons and armour they were equipped with seemed to be used to some extent.
　Ray had some doubts about it, but it's not unusual for him to receive weapons and protective equipment from his seniors and family members, so now he puts that idea aside.
　Now, above all, the attack by the Cobolts came first.

"Wow!"

　Then I heard a voice like that from behind the bushes... more than a dozen cobolts popping out.
