2191 Episode 2191



Do you want information?
 After hearing that, Ray nods while sitting on the sofa.

"Oh, do you know what's going on with me now?"
"I know. I don't know everything, though."

 Zorak responds with a touch of his ear, a half-elf-like short -- only as compared to ordinary elves.

"Well, I'd like you to give me some information about the matter."
"It's an introduction from Marina, and I don't mind... I'm afraid I don't understand the discomfort you're most interested in. But I understand what kind of people are aiming for you. Is that OK?"
"Oh,"

 Rey nodded to Zorak's words, but I can't hide his expression of regret. ... No, in this case, I should say not.
 In the first place, Ray came to Black Dog's hideout because he wanted to get information about the organization he was targeting, but he wanted to do more about the discomfort he felt when he came to Gilm.
 But it was impossible for Ray not to regret the fact that there was no information as to the true nature of the discomfort.
 ...but it's definitely helpful to have information about who you're targeting.

(First of all, if you destroy the organization that is aiming at me, this sense of incongruity will show some sort of movement. ...Then I don't know how to give it to you, but I'm sure I can deal with it. ...if possible, I want it to be a magic item.)

 For Ray, who has a hobby of collecting magic items, the magic item that makes it difficult to detect or detect murder by giving the other person a sense of strangeness was a very useful magic item that he definitely wanted if possible.
 Ray was sure to have a tremendous effect in the fight.

"I think Ray has noticed that there is more than one organization targeting Ray. That's more than one organization."
"Well, there were too many assassinations for one organization to aim for."

 Trying to pierce Ray directly from behind with a dagger, using poisoned fruit water, attacking him head on, not like an assassin, and manipulating him, though it is not known whether he is hypnotized or brainwashed.
 Given the fact that so many assassins are being targeted in one day, it doesn't seem to be the work of a single organization.
 The most decisive difference was the difference between black clothing and dahb.
 Clearly, the black outfits and Darves seemed to belong to different organizations.
 ...it's possible that one organization has only rivalry and antagonism, but it still seemed to Ray that they belonged to another organization.

"I'm glad I knew that ... and although it's a different organization, it has one thing in common: it's all been in Gillum since spring."
"After spring?"

 Zorak nods to Ray, who asks suspiciously.

"Oh, I don't know if Ray knew it or not... No, he didn't seem to know it. He started building extensions in the spring, didn't he? That's why a lot of people came to him, and some of them were behind the scenes trying to poke fun at him."

 Saying so, Zorak explains the background of the present guillem.
 Most organizations were destroyed or withdrawn and disappeared from Gillum, but some survived safely by luck or ability.
 an organization that survived in a different organization, let alone one that was originally connected to another
 Such an organization, for various reasons, may be trying to demonstrate its ability by killing Ray, a notorious adventurer.

"...was that why you were being targeted?"
"That's the reason, though there's information that some of the organizations are actually being asked to kill Ray ... there's still not a strong evidence around here. Maybe it's just a rumor."
"If there are really people like that, that's all you have to do... there's a possibility of a rumor, but you can't do that."

 Lords are not exonerated for Ray.
 I had no doubt that if I had been hostile to myself, I would make the choice to do my best and destroy it.
 However, it is also true that even though there is no evidence, it is impossible to do such a thing just because it is suspicious.

"Well, then why don't you attack the organization for now? They don't expect to copy you coming into the organization on your own?"

 It was an honest and satisfactory action for an organization that had been in Guilm for a long time.
 At the same time, many organizations that have just come to Gillum may have heard information about Ray, but think that they would never do such a thing.
 It seems to me that a hundred stories are worth seeing.

"Well, that's the best thing, after all. ... And can you give me any information about the organization that is trying to kill me?"
"Oh, of course, the Black Dog knows now, and there may be other organizations like that, but... in the nature of the coin... no, a few white coins would be for information."

 Marina-san introduced me to her, and if that's not the case, I'll keep it short.
 Zorak can't help but deal with Ray just because his benefactor Marina introduced him.
 Marina probably knew it and encouraged Ray to go to the Black Dog.

"I'm sorry,"
"Hmm. I'll tell you, this isn't because of you. I got a letter from Marina, so I'm giving you the information. Don't get me wrong."
"I know. Don't worry, I don't think so."

 What does Zorak think of Marina?
 Ray probably didn't say anything more because he knew it.
 There are many others who have a crush on Marina.
 Zorak in front of us is, in a sense, one of them.
 ...however, in Zorak's case, it is true that he has feelings for his older sister and mother, not for the opposite s*x.

"Well, good. ... By the way, what's Marina like?"
"I met Marina before I came here today, and it was as usual. She was healing the injured with spirit magic. And many of the injured were grateful to her."
"I see,"

 Zorak nods satisfactorily to Ray's words.
 For Zorak, Marina must be very happy to be evaluated.

"And what about Marina, but who is the organization's hideout?"
"I don't know everything here, either. Our organization sells its name in its own way, but it's not that strong after all."
"Ah... well, I suppose so."

 Ray has also repeatedly entered the slums and struggled with the organizations behind the slums.
 If Black Dog was so famous, he could have heard his name then.
 Of course, it may have something to do with this story that many people did not want to give information about Black Dogs to Ray, who has been fighting with the organizations behind the scenes many times, because Black Dogs are loved by slums.
 Well, the good will of the slum dwellers must be the great force of the Black Dog organization.

"If you don't mind, I'll tell you. ... Don't die, though, you don't have to worry."

 Don't die is not a word of concern for Ray.
 It's just to make sure that Marina, who loves Ray, doesn't feel sad.

"All right. Leave it to me. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . ."There's a sense of strangeness, which masks the opponent's murder.
 It is nothing short of suicidal behavior to go to an organization seeking one's own life in an unknown situation.
 But... for Ray's character, it was impossible to stop here.
 If there is a trap, you're willing to go into it, and you're going to eat it.
 With the intention of doing so, Ray replies to Zorak.
 a seemingly suicidal act
 It could have been described as an act of folly by Zorak.
 ...but Ray is the one who has the power to accomplish the foolish thing.
 Zorak knows that being a notorious person is as good as he can be.

"All right. I'll call a guide right away."
"No, if you could tell me the place,"

 Ray tells her that he doesn't want to interfere, but Zorak snorts at Ray's words.

"Hmm, slums are quite complicated. Besides, they change frequently. If you're not familiar with slums, you'll get lost."
"Now that you mention it... well, I can't deny it."

 What path did you take before you actually arrived at Black Dog's hideout?
 With that in mind, it was undoubtedly true that the streets of the slums were complicated.

"Right? So, be quiet and rely on our guide. Marina is asking you."

 Clearly, the last word shows why you're so kind.
 That said, Ray knew it, so there was nothing particular about it.

"But if you show me around, I think you'd better not be with me, because of that, I think you'd better stay away from me."
"Don't worry. I'm not stronger than Ray, but I can defend myself for now. I'll tell Ray to wait outside the building when he's fighting. Don't worry."
"That's all right. If you're good enough to protect yourself, you don't have to worry about being held hostage."

 Ray doesn't know exactly what the enemy will do.
 More than anything, it's an organization that sends large numbers of assassins into the city from the daytime in an attempt to kill Ray.
 It could do anything necessary to kill Ray.
 I'd do something as easy as taking hostages.
 But I think it's okay to accompany him as long as he's strong enough to protect himself and Zorak guarantees it.
 ...but in this case I was not sure if I could go to a place in a slum where I'd never been to before on a map or just heard information.

"Wait a minute. I'll get Caonora ready."

 Saying so, Zorak leaves the room.
 Lei, left alone in the room, looks around the room without any particular interest.
 At times like this, if I had tea or anything, I could drink it and kill some time. Unfortunately, there is nothing like it.
 Perhaps he thought it was boring to wait as it was, Ray pulls cold fruit water out of the mistling.
 The mildly sweet, sour mixture of fruit water and slight but mixed pulp was enough to please Ray's tongue.

"Yes, it's delicious,"
"...you're drinking something delicious,"

 As he says so, Zorak returns to the room with Kaonora in a somewhat stunned manner.

"Right? It's pretty good fruit water."
"...I'm almost poisoned with fruit water, but I can drink it well."

 a dumbfounded Zorak
 The fact that the words include the assassin targeting Ray and Sett is that the black dog's information network is so wide.

"I bought this before and put it in here. I don't have to worry about poison."
"...the item box?With it, no adventurer would have to do it."

 Zorak tells Ray with a look of amazement.
 In fact, if you have a small number of confirmed item boxes, there are many ways to make money.
 What's more, time is running out in the item box... for example, selling Gamerion meat, which is currently in the mystery ring and can only be caught in winter, will be a significant amount of money.

"After all, adventurers are in their line of duty. There are many other things to do."

 That's what Ray said, hiding from the collection of the magical stones.
