64 Episode 0064



The day after his first meeting with Custe at the lord's house, Ray, as promised, was heading to the main gate before the nine o'clock bell rang.

"Glu".

 Of course, Seto is the same.
 Walking along the main street with Seto, the inhabitants and adventurers of the city approached him as usual, but today, for the purpose of welcoming the Duchess, he was heading towards the main gate, instead of facing her properly as usual.

"Oh, my dear Ray,"Do you happen to be a member of the people there?"

 In front of the main gate, he handed the guild card to Langa as usual, and he called out to her like that.
 When Langa turned his eyes to the people who were concerned, he saw Dusker, the Earl of Larkus, the lord of the town of Gillum, and Custe, the captain of Elena's bodyguard.Naturally, there were not only those two, but also guards and attendants in units of more than a dozen.Dusker was dressed in luxurious clothes suitable for his lord, and Custe was also dressed in armor, which was inferior to the day before, but which he could see at a glance as a luxury article.
 The armour that Custe had been using until the day before had been destroyed by Ray himself, so the armour that Custe is wearing now was probably prepared in a hurry.

(Even so, he was able to prepare that level of armor, which is worthy of mention.)

 Apparently, it's worse than what was destroyed by Ray yesterday, but the fact that Ray's eyes are attractive is probably a magic item.

"And?"

 While returning the guild card, he nods to Ranga, who asks him.

"It's not altogether wrong,"
"But I think you shouldn't be so careless about that Custe because he seems to be very proud of course.

 Having advised him so, it was conceivable that Custe might have caused some disturbance in front of the main gate.
 but the advice was too late for Ray, who had literally beaten Custe the day before.

"It was a little late,"
"Is that so?"
"Yes, I had a little yesterday,"

 After receiving the guild card, he and Seto leave the main gate and walk towards Custe with the nearby Dasker.
 and the men near Dusker would be reflective at the sight of Seth, with swords and spears in their hands.and so did Custe, who quickly held the spear in his hand.

"I'm sorry, Ray, these are my bodyguards, too."

 Dusker, who shouted at the people around him, approaches Ray with a wry smile.

"No, I'm sorry that I approached you without speaking to you."
"Glu?"

 He said, "What's wrong with you?" and he said, "It's nothing." He shook his head and stroked his head.
 Then Seto sings happily at the back of his throat.

"Well, you've got a lot in your heart.It's true that I've heard it."

 murmured Dusker admiringly, glancing at the man beside him.There was a middle-aged man who felt the strength of his muscles and willpower.Ray doesn't know, but he is a man named Trema, who is the vice-chairman of the Knights who protects the streets of Gilm.
 The trend understands the eyes of his lord, Dusker, and calls out to Ray.

"Mr. Ray, I'm interested in monsters even though they look like this.If you don't mind, that Gryphon... or Set?Do you mind if I touch you?"

(...I see, do you really want to see if Sett is following me?Dusker, the lord of the manor, would have liked to see for himself, but from his standpoint it would be difficult to do so, so would he ask a reliable subordinate to do so?)

 Ray nods toward the trend, as he can understand the general plot of the conversation.

"Oh, there's no problem.If you just stroke it normally, there will be no problem.--as long as I only stroke it normally.but remember that Gryphon hates what men don't like done."

 When Ray says something, Dusker realizes that Ray has realized their aim and looks at the trend again.
 The dilemma, with his eyes on her, simply patted her on the back as Ray had told her to.

"Oh, that's your proud Gryphon.It is indeed a splendid Gryphon."

 It was Custe who interrupted the Trenma as she walked away.Though he praised her in words, her eyes still had a light that looked down upon her.

"Grull".

 Ceto also chirps in his throat displeasedly, perhaps feeling it.

"I'm sorry, but Seto doesn't seem to like you."
"Are you? Who are you talking to?"
"That's all, Mr. Custe,"Ray, too. You two are going to have a special party and challenge dungeon from tomorrow.What are you going to do if we are at odds with each other now?"

 Custe tried to put a magic spear in Ray's manner at once, but he reluctantly accepted Dusker's words.
 At the same time, Ray also presses Seto's back, which was about to attack him.

"Grull".

 Seto sings discontentedly deep in his throat, but when Ray held him back, he had no choice but to swallow his discontent.
 though he kept his keen eye on Custe.
 And Custe, who faced his gaze head-on, paused for a moment, for sure.
 He noticed it, smacking his tongue only in his mouth and muttering it inwardly so that the people around him could not hear it.

(Did I feel as terrified as the monsters being tamed? Even though I'm a Gryphon of Rank A monsters, it's disgusting.whose owner, Ray, knows no manners to the nobles at the discretion of the common people... that such men of low birth should be brought close to Mr. Elena... they are disgusting people at all."

 Watching Custe's situation, Ray muttered inwardly.

(Goblin's mouth, night-star, and Allogan, I am destined to be liked by these kinds of men.Well, when it comes to Alogan, it's got a little better in the end.)

"Glu?"

 When Seto rubs his head against him like, "What are you doing?" he shakes his head and caresses his head.
 Originally, it was acceptable to give him dried meat in the mistrings, but now he is waiting with the lord of the town for the arrival of the princess shogun, so he cannot be so rude.instead he was patting his head as if he had been patting her.Dusker talks with his men about his work, and Custe looks silently across the road as if he were praying.
 When that happened for about 30 minutes.I saw a carriage coming towards me from the end of the road.
 When Custe saw it, his arrogant attitude toward Ray completely disappeared and he looked delighted, and so did Dusker, the Earl of Larkus, who was also in charge of the land, with a sigh of relief.
 The fact that he is in charge of the area means that Dusker is to blame for the scandal.It would be no surprise to see that they arrived safely, as it is possible that not only themselves but also their subordinates will be held accountable if the iconic figure of the faction that is in conflict with their faction is attacked by thieves or monsters and injured or killed.

(Well, if you are as powerful as the name of General Hime suggests, you will be able to defeat a monster as you would see on the street.)

 muttered Dusker inward.
 The nickname Hime Shogun, which has spread to neighboring countries, boasts such a military fame.
 When Ray soon became able to see the details of the carriage drawn by the two warhorses, he let out a sigh of admiration.

"Oh, that's a very fine carriage,"

 At the remark, Custe moved his eyebrows lightly, and for a moment, with an admiring eye upon Ray, though his gaze soon changed to the same condescending one as before.

"Oh, have you noticed?"That's what I expected."

 Dusker exclaims to Ray admiringly.
 Although he is now a feudal lord, he was originally a warrior.and thus I felt how magical the carriage which was approaching me was.
 Even Ray noticed this fact because he had the same sense of attracting attention as when he saw magic items.

"Lord, what do you mean?"

 However, most of the close associates on the side of the lord were not familiar with magic items because they were basically civil officers, and they did not realize how good a carriage was, so they asked their boss, Dasker.

"You may not know, but that carriage itself is a very powerful magic item."
"Really? I'm a magician, but I don't think that the carriage is worth that much."
"That carriage has the effect of a cover-up, isn't it, Ray?"

 a dusker that smells as if it were just like your robe.

(... did you notice that?You ought to say so.)

 Ray looks surprised because he didn't expect to see the hidden effect of the dragon lobe made by Esta Noor, who was said to be the greatest alchemist at the time.
 Custe glanced at Ray again at Dusker's words, but with the carriage approaching him, he had no time to say anything in particular.
 and the carriage stopped before Ray, Dusker, and Couste, and a man sprang out of the cab.
 Like his movements, a man of some light character waved lightly at the sight of Custe before knocking on the door of the carriage.
 and seeing him smile bitterly at his appearance, it was easy for Ray to understand that the man in the coachman was an acquaintance of Custe.

(And what he is doing now... there was something in common with the robber Curotto, so is he the robber of the Princess Shogun's party?)

"Mr. Elena, we have arrived at the town of Gillum."
"Well, thank you,"

 A voice was heard from inside, and the door of the carriage was opened.The man who came out at the same time, the moment he saw the only man, a shock struck Dusker's men, or those who were looking round the carriage at what was going on.The blonde hair, as if it had been remade from gold, reflected the light of the sun, and its features were more beautiful than most people here had ever seen.Usually, it may be expressed as if it were a doll, but its keen eyes, which show its will and strength, prove that the person is a person.And even if it is wrapped in armor, the rich Souoka is nothing but flesh and blood.and, as she descended from the carriage to the ground, some observed that her gaze was not so different from the men around her.In other words, she is quite tall for a woman.
 The men around me... No, I'm not sure about the women's beauty.Next, he went to the rich Ssangoka, and finally he was fascinated by his height.
 Perhaps she was already accustomed to attracting the attention of the people around her, but without particular concern, she looked around... the only person around her carriage looking at the connecting sword and armor themselves, or at the proud accessories of cloaks and shoes.

(Oh, it's funny.)

 The woman's interest was that the man -- Ray -- also wore the same slipnil shoes as himself, and wrapped himself in robes that would have been a pretty high-performance magic item.And above all...

(Is he really a human being? This overwhelming magical power, as if it were a human being.It is a remote area to have such a man.)

 She realizes Ray's magical powers and admires them inside.The expression that magic is becoming human was strangely similar to what the elf, Feelma, felt to Ray.
 Then Ray's eyes shifted from the magic item that Elena was equipped with to his face.
 Elena also moves her gaze from Ray's magic item to his face.
 It was a real coincidence.It happened that Ray's eyes were on Elena, and Elena's eyes were on Ray at the same time... their eyes crossed.

「……」
"What!"

 Nothing happened.That's the only fact that we've seen each other than that's it.
 But the moment Ray saw Elena, for some reason, a small but involuntary expression of surprise came to his face, and Elena was almost reflexively breathtaking.
 It was only a few seconds for the people around them, but for the two of them, they felt a sense of nanica in a strange way that they could feel for an hour or even a moment.
