"Oh, that's rare. Aren't you with Setto today?"

 Ray nods while handing the guild card from the mistling to Langa, who is already familiar at the main gate in the city of Guilm.

"Oh, you looked sleepy, and I think you'll have a good night's sleep in the stable in the inn by now."

 Basically, it's a glyphon with little need for sleep, but it doesn't mean you can't sleep. It's just unnecessary, but it's quite possible to enjoy sleep itself. It was certain that Seto tended to enjoy sleep, especially as it was a glyphon created by witchcraft rather than a natural monster.

"I see. And with those three today?"
"Oh, but I'm not going to make a request together, I'm going to make one."
"Who makes the request?"
"It's the demolition of the monster I killed. It's too much to dismantle by yourself, so ask the guild to do it. That's why we go a little far from the city because it's too much and it's dangerous to do it in the city."
"...are you all right? If you go too far away from the city, the blood stinks and monsters come to you."

 Ray smiles at Langa, who asks anxiously.

"They're all rank D adventurers, and if you're a monster that's approaching a city like this, you'll have no problem. and I'll act with you just in case."

 return a guild card as it is

(When I made a request, I thought I could leave everything to you and do something else, but when I think about it, it's a good opportunity to learn how to dismantle monsters that aren't in my beginner's book. Fortunately, as for most monsters, Schola knows how to dismantle them.)

 mutter to the other security guard, seeing the three men showing their guild cards.

"Well, then, be careful." ... well, I'll tell you this. Yesterday's case was saved."

 Ray bows his head at the remark.

"Yesterday's?""Oh, it's about the Azot business," We've been told a lot of nonsense. I'm glad to think that it's going to disappear from now on."

 How do you know? Ray thought so, but the Knights are investigating in the first place. Langa, who is also the captain of the guard, decides that the information is not so difficult to get.

"Don't worry, I've been halfway there. Can I pass by more than that?"
"Oh, there's no problem. Be careful then. It's dangerous for Ray to be careless."

 Langa says so and leaves the city with the culots who have also completed the process.
 In the midst of this, you will see a merchant force walking into the city of Gilm, which will come as a surprise today because it may also be linked to the Azot trade in arms. Ray smiled inwardly, thinking like that.

"And how far away are you from the city?"
"Well, at least in a place where the blood cannot be seen by those who enter the city through this main gate."

 Ray's gaze glanced at the forest beside the road.
 As long as there are trees in the forest, there must be a certain amount of monsters, but considering their proximity to the city, there should be only low-ranking monsters. When Ray decides so, he takes out his death size and heads toward the forest just in case.

"It's in that forest. Even if it stinks of blood, it's like a low-ranking monster or wild beast, or if you leave the useless parts alone after they've been dismantled, they'll clean it up. No, I'll do as much as I can."
"Certainly we only have spare weapons and armaments, but we can manage monsters around here. Your sword is the most aggressive of us, Alogan, and I look forward to it in case of emergency."
"Well, I don't think it's a good idea to have my magical sword for the little fish around here. Well, that's all right."

 an alogan hanging from his waist with a strong smile as he patted the scabbard containing the magical sword. But the smile also clinched in Culotte's next line.

"Well, if Ray was there, he wouldn't be the enemy of monsters around here.""…Culotte. Why do you say such a thing as to discourage your comrades?"
"What? Did you say anything strange?"
"No, not really. That's why it's culotte."

 I went into the woods talking nonsense like that for about ten minutes. After finding a narrow but barely acceptable waterfield, Ray and his colleagues decide to start dismantling the river there.

"It's not that cold right now because it's still noon, but it's quite cold in the evening at this time of year. I'll get it done as soon as possible."
"It's true. When it's cold, it's good to cool down the soup that makes your tongue burn. Shall we do our best for a delicious dinner today? Ray, let's get the monster right away."
"Oh, that's the first thing. I have already taken out the magical stones, so please give me something else."

 It was AUGER's corpse that he said and pulled out of Mistilling. The tip and neck have already been amputated from the right shoulder, and blood removal has been completed.
 Seeing it, Schola nods softly.

"Oh, it's too big for an auger. I don't have to think about bleeding, so this is quite easy. Allogans have skin. Culotte took the right ear from the head, which was proved to be exterminated, and his skull, which was sold as a material. ...and don't forget to buy the tendons of the auger's feet as materials. Unfortunately, this is the best material. What do you do with meat? It's a rank C monster meat, and it sells for a reasonable price.

 Following Schola's instructions, Ray immediately watched the performance of Alorgan, who was peeling the skin off the auger's body, and Curotte, who was treating the head, but he came back to life with Schola's question.

"Oh, oh, I'm sorry, but as for meat, cut it into appropriate blocks. Because I have monsters that are taming me. I'll send it to you for dinner.""Oh, it's called Seto." There's a lot of talk in town, isn't there?"

 Even for the Scholars, as long as they were working as adventurers in the city of Gillum, they still heard of the Reys.
 Scola muttering, having finished giving instructions, peeling the skin off his right arm, which had been cut off with his knife.
 Ray nods while looking at the three of them and hammering into their heads how to efficiently peel them off and where they can sell as materials.

"It's size, after all." The amount of food you need will be reasonable."
"... I suppose,"

 Schola nodded, from which he spoke very little to concentrate on stripping off, and the people around him were silent.
 In the meantime, Ray himself has been wary of the surroundings, partly because of the smell of blood floating around him, but he looks surprised to see that he's used to it, or rather, finished dismantling the giant auger in less than half an hour.
 Then dig a hole appropriately and throw away parts of the auger that can't be used as materials -- mainly internal organs and bones -- before moving on to the next dismantling.

"Next time... well, I'm not a high-ranked monster, but I'll take this one with a lot of numbers."

 mutter, and take the water monkey out of the mistling.
 As expected, he was dumbfounded at the sight of the bodies of monsters appearing in large numbers, but soon the score came back to him.

"Oh, I'm sorry," As expected, this number was unexpected. Wait a minute. This is a water monkey, isn't it? first of all water resistant fur the right ear to be subjugated These are the only two I can use."

 As Schola says so, Ray frowns suddenly.

"According to the book I have, you can buy me eyeballs as a material?"
"What? Wait a minute. Well... I don't have eyeballs in my knowledge. Can you show me the book Ray has? Oh, let's keep the curotto and the arogan bleeding."
"All right. For now, I'll cut off all my right ear, let alone my eyeball. Hey, Ray. What about the magical stones?"Ray nods softly to Culotte's question as he pulls the book out of the mistling.

"Unlike an auger, I didn't take out the magic stones, so I'll ask you to collect them."
"All right. ... That's an awful lot, though." I wonder if Ray really knocked this down."

 Whispering like that, he tied up his ankle with the rope he had prepared. Then, disgusted by the number of water monkeys, he hangs it ankle up from a nearby tree and cuts his throat with a knife to drain blood.

"Not at all. You can't normally carry the remains of monsters around like this, and they rot. That's why I don't have an item box..."

 culottes and allogans I suppose they are in a way alike.
 Thinking this way, Ray opens the book he has in his hand and shows the pages of Water Monkey to the school.

"Look, it says in this book that the eyeballs can be used as well.
"... well, I'mmmm. But my book didn't say that my eyeballs would sell well. It's probably the man who copied either this book or mine."

 a sighing scalar
 In this other world called Elgin, where printing technology has not yet developed, books are essentially manuscripts. In that case, it is quite natural that the contents of the manuscript differ depending on the author.

"...what are you going to do?"
"Well, I'll take it with me, It's a number, after all. If this doesn't bring my eyeballs with me, and if it turns out that I was actually buying them as materials later on, I'd lose a lot of money."
"Yes, I see," What's the storage container?"
"Oh,"

 They have a kind of foul magic item called Mistilling. And considering that it could be stored in the corpse of a fallen monster, there were quite a few consumables available to remove the material. Especially in this case, we knew in advance the number of monsters we had knocked down in the dungeon, so we are prepared for that.
 Take out the eye storage containers one after another and pile them on the ground."Well, let's get on with it, shall we? I'll take care of your eyeballs, for they need to be polite. Also, the right ear of the proof of subjugation. Culotto must be stripped of his fur, and Allogan must cut the meat and recover the magical stones."

 Following Schola's instructions, the corpses of the finished water monkey are dismantled one after another. The efficiency of the work, as if it were a stream operation, can be said to be a few steps faster and more accurate than Ray, who recently thought he had improved in stripping materials.
 Meanwhile, Ray stores the eyeballs that are being taken out one after another, fur, magical stones, and cut meat in a mistling. Naturally unavailable internal organs are thrown into holes just like augers.
 The size itself is not even knee-deep, but the number is well over 50. Under such circumstances, nearly two hours had already passed by the time all the water monkeys were dismantled.

"...it's over!"

 Then, after the last dismantling of the Water Monkey, Culotte screams involuntarily.
 It's no wonder they've been dismantling the same monster. Wash your hands with the water of a nearby river and wash away the sticky blood.

"Well done, shall we take a short break for now? Drink this for me."

 That's what Ray says, taking fresh vegetables and bacon soup from the mistiling and serving them on a plate to everyone there.
 Even if Alogan has mixed feelings for Ray, he might want to take a rest, but without any particular complaints, he receives a plate of soup, and everyone drinks soup after washing their hands in the river and bleeding.

"Well, then," As Alogan said earlier, it's really nice to have an item box."

 mumble soup into one's mouth The gaze was directed at Mistyling, who was fitted into Ray's right arm.

"Well, I guess I envy you to say that you don't have to worry about the body of a monster rotting. You don't have to worry about other monsters attacking you while you're knocking them down and stripping them off."
"I admit it is convenient, but it may cause some extra trouble for this mistling."

 Ray conjures up the image of Bornter in his mind.
 It was after a change of date that we eventually caught Bornter in last night's case. In other words, Ray's use of the Flame of Conviction will not be effective until tonight.

(Well, can you endure the pain of burning your body for the sins you have committed? Well, I guess you have no choice but to endure the pain because it will never kill you.)"Ray, you have an evil smile on your face."

 Ray is suddenly approached by Culotte as he recalls the tragic end of Bornter's life.
 Knowing that she was smiling unknowingly, she cleans up the empty plates.

"Now, Harpy," There are quite a few of them here, but don't worry about them as much as Water Monkey."

 They would start dismantling monsters other than knocking them down in dungeons.
