"Oh, it's easy, man.Usually, if we go into a mountain like this alone, we will surely be attacked by the monsters of all nature."

　Fluorocarbons' satisfied voices echo through the mountains.
　A few hours after entering the mountain where Harpy was already nesting, monsters never attacked me again, much less frequently than when I normally entered the mountain.
　Naturally, there is a reason for that.There are many monsters who come close to feeding on dwarves and humans, but when they get to a certain extent, they notice the set of Gryphon, a Rank A monster, and instinctively understand the difference in status as a monster and run away.
　Some animals, like Fangboa, who were not monsters, were supposed to rush in with their tusks exposed, but of course Seto could not have been attacked, and his head was literally blown off by a blow of his claws and the meat became the Ray's lunch.

"Well, sir.When it's so comfortable, I can't help but feel like a sight-seeker."

　Brasso looks at the surrounding scenery while saying that.There was a huge hammer on his back, but when he entered the mountain -- no, he had never been shaken since he left the city of Gilm.

"Well, it's autumn as expected.It's a beautiful autumn leaf."

　In front of Brasso's eyes is the autumn leaves that are being colored yellow or red by many different trees.Clear air peculiar to mountains in clear autumn with few clouds.and many broad-leaved trees that grow throughout the mountain have beautifully changed their colors to yellow and red, as if they were covering of the mountain.

"Hey, Brasso.It's certainly a beautiful sight, but don't be too careful."

　Fluorocarbons warn Brasso, who is fascinated by the autumn mountains, but it is true that even Fluorocarbons are fascinated by the autumn mountains to such an extent that they are fascinated by the autumn mountains.

"Grull".

　Seeing Seto growl elsewhere, he stared at the mountain, and what Ray found was several shadows flying in the sky.
　The shadow is still so far away that it is hard to tell what Ray's five senses are like.

"Both of us are only going to see the sights.It seems that the one you are after has appeared."
"What!"

　Yes. Its shadow, flying far near the top of a mountain, has a woman's face and body, and its feet belong to birds of prey.In other words, Harpy was the target of the request for subjugation.

"Are you coming this way?"

　Ray shakes his head slightly at Fluorocarbons' words.

"No, when you see us flying in a different direction, you don't notice our existence.I suppose he went looking for food or something."
"Food... I'm sick to my heart aches."

　Only a few minutes ago, Fluorocarbons were fascinated by the autumn mountains, but when they realized what Harpy was looking for, they spit to the ground.
　In the first place, the Rays accepted Harpy's request because of the numerous attacks of travelers, merchants, and adventurers on the way to the town of Gillum, in the case of a mine on the mountain.and they understood that the purpose of the attack was to feed themselves, meaning that the group of harpies who had just flown off the top of the mountain had gone to attack them for food.

"...it's certainly not the time to go sightseeing."

　He changed his mind and held a huge hammer in his hand.The gentle expression on his face, which had existed only a few minutes ago, disappeared, and he became the adventurer's face in the face of danger.

"Sure, I'll teach you how hopeless it is,"

　Fluorocarbons muttered with a grim expression.

"Well, first of all... what shall we do? We were planning to make a night raid on Harpy's nest on the top of the mountain, but until then we must rest and keep fit?"
"I've got an eye on that.According to the smiths who asked 儂 et al. for this matter, there was a hut near the mine for miners to rest.though it is a place where miners gather and rest.It's quite spacious inside, and I'm sure you can rest enough in a set."
"Oh, come to think of it, I think I've heard that,"In his words, Fluorocarbons recall that... he walks forward in front of the party, sighing unconsciously at his partner's appearance.
　After that, Fluorocarbons, Rey, and Sett follow, and Rey also takes the Death Size out of the Mistilling.

"...oh, is that the rumoured scythe?"It's a big thing, I'm sure."

　When Fluorocarbons casually look at Ray behind him, they see a handle longer than his height and a huge blade, and they are overwhelmed.

"It's certainly a terrible thing.It's a magic item created by a very famous alchemist and blacksmith."

　Even Blasso, who was leading the way, was once aiming to become a blacksmith, and while he was careful not to be careless about the front, he glanced back.
　Ray smiles bitterly at the two men ahead of him as he follows a path that has been trampled down by those who once worked in the mines.

"It's definitely a powerful magic item, but there's a drawback that it's hard to get around in such a small place."
"Oh, I see.It's true that in such a mountain, the surrounding trees are in the way, and it's hard to get around."

　Brasso nods in agreement with Ray's words and looks at his huge hammer.

"In that sense, the hammer of the earth's shaking would be similar."
"...so you've been telling me to buy an axe or something that's easier to handle.Why are you so obsessed with such a big thing?"
"It's noisy.In the first place, this earthquake hammer was given to her by her parents when she left.If it's broken, can you sell it like that?In addition, fluorocarbons have been used as magic items for earth tremors."
"... the earth's shaking hammer?"

　Ray looked at the dangerous name and at the hammer of the brasso.

"Yes, it's this hammer inscription.It's a kind of magic item.By putting magic into it, the power of hitting is tripled only once.though there is a drawback that it takes three days to accumulate the magical power that can be used again once."

　It must be a very proud article.Brasso explains happily while stroking the handle of the earth shaking hammer with a smile.
　Fluorocarbons open their mouths, looking at such a blasso as if they were dumbfounded.

"But why don't you at least carry another weapon in a mountain like this?"
"...there was an axe stock some time ago."

　Passing Ray's mind is the sight of a knight who respects his boss.though he had already looked more like a warrior than a knight, as he had used the Power Axe.

"Oh, that's too bad....I see you now.That's it."

　A kind of loghouse-like building made of mountain trees was just in front of Fluorocarbons.Certainly, as I heard earlier, it is quite widely made.

"You haven't been very lonely since Harpy left the nest,"

　muttered Ray, looking at the rest area.
　It's not being ravaged by monsters or destroyed the exterior walls.It's a rest area where you can live anytime you want.

"It's not like Harpy stopped coming to the mine as soon as he had lived in this mountain.It hasn't been long since the miner stopped coming here.though it is true that the prices of ores and other things have risen in that number of days."

　Ray listens to Fluorocarbons and turns to the rest area door.There was no particular sign of damage to the door.It was originally an uninhabited building in such a mountain.even though monsters could destroy or sneak in during the night.

"Why isn't this rest area destroyed, usually buildings outside the city are destroyed by monsters at night?""Oh, that's not known for certain among the miners, but apparently because of some kind of ore in this mine."
"Ore in the mine?"

　He looked to the entrance of the mine, which was a little far away, but there was no particular discomfort.In the first place, Ray has very little ability to sense magical powers.It is highly likely that if there were any actual abnormalities, they would not have been able to feel it.

"Grull".

　But there was someone who could feel it.Seth, who usually doesn't want to leave Ray's side, repeats that now, for some reason, she approaches him a little further and takes a few steps back.

"...I see. Come to think of it, Seto is a monster, so the effect of keeping him out of here is not surprising."

　Blasso muttered as if he had forgotten.

"Ah... then what should we do? Are we the only ones resting in the rest area and having Seto wait here?"
"...no, go to the hut with Fluorocarbons and Brasso.Seto and I will take a rest in a place that is not affected by this.I'll be back here at night."

　Ray couldn't have the option of leaving his partner's set alone to rest.So, taking it for granted, I told them so and walked towards Sett, who was a little far away.But...

"Wait a minute,"

　I was approached from behind, and I turned around and saw Fluorocarbons and Brasso walking from the hut towards the Lays.

"Have you anything else to do?"
"Oh, I've forgotten,"

　I think a little about the words, but what was in particular in my custody...

"Oh, I'm sorry, now that you mention it, I've kept your things."

　As soon as he tries to take out the backpack he received from Mistilling in front of the town of Gilm, he breathes a sigh of astonishment.At the same time, Brasso also smiles bitterly.

"No, no. Don't forget us."
"Not at all. As Fluorocarbons say, I'm not going to forget the party members."

　As they spoke, they left the rest area and lined up next to Ray and Sett.
　When they look like this, Ray opens his mouth in a panic.

"Well, we don't rest in the rest-room for the sole reason of me and Seto.You don't need to go out with us..."
"What nonsense are you talking about?If you're leaving here, there's no point in having a party.and you and Seto seem to be quite good at it.I have an ulterior motive that it would be safer to take a break in the mountains with you, even if it's a little inconvenient to break up with you in a comfortable rest area.Don't worry so much."
"Yes, and it's already been proven that even if you take a break in the mountains, you won't see a lot of monsters coming to you if you have a set.Then, for a dwarf, it would be no big difference in the mountains or in a rest area."
"Well, that's why people say that Dwarves are stubborn not only to their guts but also to their bodies.It's hard for a girl like me to rest in the mountains, isn't it?"

　This leather armor is made from the skins of monsters of high rank.CFC lamented, patting the arm that stretched out from there.

"Why, what is a maiden?"Don't be silly at the habit of going over thirty and getting married."
"Oh? Oh, why don't you make that bumpy head any more?"Blaso's words must have hit the nail in the head.Fluorocarbon glares at the smiling Dwarf in front of him as if he were trying to kill himself.

"Oh, I'm scared.If you were so murderous, you wouldn't get a monster like that.Come on, Ray. If you stay here, it's going to hurt your set.Let's get away from here.And if I stay here, I'll be killed by my late marriage."
"Ah, oh,"

　Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha haFluorocarbons followed him with a look of almost exclamation.

(Why, you go out of your way to hang out with me until you give up your time in a good resting-place... they're curious about things.

　It was Ray who said that to himself, but didn't feel so bad.
