"Here we are!"

 The walls of the city are filled with joy.
 The afternoon after meeting Ray and Sett, they finally arrived in the city where the adventurer Guild would prove their innocence.
 But there were other reasons why Miloire exclaimed with joy. In fact, when I went on a night camp the night before, I was surprised to see Ray's tent of magic items, but I couldn't stay inside.
 Of course the tent isn't that big, but Ray didn't want to sleep near someone he didn't trust yet.
 In the end, Miloire and Egrett spend the night outside the tent with Seto, who is wary of the surroundings.
 Miloire seemed to be a little dissatisfied, but Egrett seemed to have no particular dissatisfaction and was playing with Seto.
 Perhaps it was good that he did not know of the existence of a glyphon, but Egrett was adorable, patting his head without any sign of fear of Seto. As for this area, I honestly think he's a great partner.

"... it's smaller than I said.
"Where are you comparing it to? Maybe you're not comparing it to the only city on the frontier, and most of it will be smaller."

 Miroir reacts to Ray's words in an involuntary manner, but Ray shakes his head slightly.

"No, I think it's smaller than not only the city of Gilm, but also the towns of Abuero, Subursta and Baal."
"That's the name of a town we've never been to, you know." Besides, I think this is basically an ordinary town."

 After being told that, Ray looks back at the city ahead of his eyes.
 It covers the city with an exterior wall of about 3 meters, but at this level it is possible for people with a little more athletic ability to cross it. Naturally, it seemed almost meaningless to monsters with higher athletic abilities.
 When asked like that, Miloire smiled with a wry smile.

"That's true. This is not a frontier, so there aren't many monsters outside the city. Of course, it's not as if none of them exist, but basically it's the goblins and the like who come near the highways. That kind of exterior wall is enough for them. The problem afterwards is bandits, but it's impossible for us to sneak in without finding anyone, let alone one or two people with an exterior wall of that height. And, you know, look. Look over the exterior wall."

 When Ray said so, he looked up at the exterior wall and saw something like a stone pillar. The size is about 1 meter, but such stone pillars are arranged at regular intervals on the outer walls.

"That stone pillar is a kind of magic item. If someone who doesn't have an item to correspond to a stone pillar climbs up on the exterior wall, it will shock you. A frontier like Gilmoo would be useless because of its lack of power, but there is no need to worry about it."
"... oh, that's quite convenient."

 Ray's impression when he heard from Miloire was that the alarm and the interceptor were in combination. And if it's a convenient magic item, Ray can't be silent.

"Where can I buy those magic items?"
"Well, I think it's hard to buy, because it's an important magic item to protect the city, and if you think about it, you don't want thieves to sell it to you to find out how it works. I remember hearing before that even if I were to buy it, I would need permission from the lord."

 Miloire muttered as he walked towards the city, but the passersby around him looked at them... more accurately at Seto and distanced himself with a look of amazement.
 Though they were somewhat nostalgic about the action, they walked forward and arrived at the front gate.
 Several people were lining up to go through the process of entering the city from the guards, and when the Gryphon-equipped Rays approached them, they also gave up their place with astonishing glances.

"Are you sure? No, we're convenient and good."

 Egrett, carrying Paul Ax on his back, asks, but the people in line nod quickly and repeatedly.

"That's true. and, as far as you can see, he must be a devil, but the Gryphon is behind him."

 Oh, again. I've experienced this before, but I still don't think it's good. But Ray doesn't mean to be threatened meaninglessly by the people of the city, so he approaches and calls out to the guards who are doing the procedures in front of the main gate with Seto.
 Naturally, the guard was surprised and told that they could not allow him into the city, so they decided to wait outside until Ray came out as before.
 However, even if I were to set, I didn't want to be scared, and even if I was lightly hungry, I quietly left the city to hunt for monsters.





"...is that all right?"
"What now? Something similar has happened before. Something similar happened before. You don't have to worry too much. After all, if you finish your business in the guild, you'll be out of town quickly. It's only a few hours away, and if any of the monsters try to attack him, he'll be killed and put in his stomach."

 Ray's making his way through the city, lightly returning to Egret.
 As expected, it is a very small town compared to the city of Gilm, the city of Abuero, or the city of Subursta, which is close to the city of Abuero, but it is still crowded to some extent. In the midst of this, the owner of the stall bought the skewers and continued on the road to the guild, where they eventually arrived.

"Well, now that we can see where you are going, are you ready?"

 That being said, Ray was half convinced that the two men already in front of him were not the prize money heads.
 In the first place, if you were the head of the prize money, you couldn't have come to the guild so quietly.
 Therefore, stopping at the guild was already just a confirmation. If I were to force you to give me another reason, it would be something unusual...or something delicious.
 With that in mind, they open the guild door, and the three of them walk in.
 The moment you enter the guild, you'll see the eyes of a few people in the bar that was set up alongside you, but that's all. The small number of people inside the guild itself is probably due to the fact that most of the adventurers are on request during the day.

(Well, the guild itself is quite small compared to the city of Guillum. as much as the city of Barr?)

 It's obviously wrong to compare the guild of Guillum, which has a population of over 100,000, as the only city on the frontier to the guild's counter.
 There, a middle-aged woman in her 40s, who seemed a bit difficult to call the receptionist, looked at Ray with some annoyance.

"Boy, are you asking me?"

 Watching Ray's appearance, he probably didn't think he was an adventurer. Deciding that he is the one who came to ask, he asks, but shakes his head and looks at Miloire and Egrett behind him.

"I want to know if these two are the winners of the prize winners.
"...what? The head of the prize?"

 Miroir next to Ray opens his mouth, perhaps unable to stand being stared at with suspicious eyes.

"In fact, he suspects that I and this man are the prize heads. So I stopped at the guild to prove his innocence."
"Oh, that's too much trouble for you to be associated with a child like this. Well, I hope I'm free now. Give me your guild card."

 Miroir and Egrett calmly place their guild cards on the counter.
 The reason the receptionist looked faintly surprised at the card was probably because she had never seen the name of the last town she was asked to do so.

"Yes, it's no use being suspected of being the head of the prize." Why haven't you been asked for such a long time? Just bring me a list of prize money heads."

 When asked why he was not working, Miloir shrugs his shoulders with a wry smile.

"I don't think there's any particular reason. It's simply that I didn't get a chance, or what I can say. Well, as you can see from our rank, it's pretty high. I had quite a lot of savings, so I wasn't short of money."
"Well, he's quite a good hand at Rank B,"

 The receptionist's words buzz the few adventurers who remained inside the guild.
 In this country town, even the highest adventurer is ranked C, so it may be understandable.I guess I've finished looking at the list. The receptionist nods a little and turns his eyes to Ray, returning his guild card to the two of them.

"These two are not heads of prize money. He's an ordinary adventurer... no, he's a good adventurer. Guild cards may mislead you, but you're not acting strangely with a Rank B adventurer. Fortunately, these two were kind-hearted, so I'm glad, but if they hadn't done well, they might have been killed."
"... I see. It was certainly my fault to suspect without clear evidence. I'm sorry."

 Rey bowed to Miloire and Egrett at the receptionist's words.
 However, there was no problem at all if the suspicions had been cleared and he did not have to be hostile to Ray, as the two men were half sure they would have died had they been fighting at the time.

"Well, if the misunderstanding is cleared, that's all right." Well, that's right. If you treat me to dinner as an apology, that's all right. I'm getting hungry after lunch. That's all right with Egrett, isn't it?"
"Huh? Oh, that's fine with me, too."

 Egrett nods to Miloire's suggestion and the three leave the Adventurer's Guild.
 They pass by several adventurers at the entrance of the guild, but Ray and others go out into the city looking for a place to eat.
 without realizing that the adventurers who pass by are looking at themselves with a look of amazement





"Hey! Why are the adventurers here?"

 Several adventurers who come in just past Ray and one of them turns to the receptionist at the counter.
 No, it would be more appropriate to say that it's biting than asking. Surprised by his appearance, the receptionist opens his mouth.

"Why are you so flustered?" You're one of the best guilds in the city, and you'll have to keep yourself in shape."
"All right! Tell me why the adventurers are here!"

 The woman behind the first man I asked was just as elusive as the man.
 The receptionist responds, nodding her head slightly when she sees the other members of the group in an unusual way.

"You said you wanted to know if the two of us, who are not bald, didn't you? It turned out to be nothing."

 Adventurers who look at each other in spite of their answers.
 The next person to speak with a quizzical look on his face was the receptionist.

"And why are you so curious about those adventurers? They were ranked B, so they might be famous."

 It's a pair of Rank B adventurers. The party right in front of you, who is a good hand in this city, could make a fuss. The receptionist thought so and asked, but the words that came back were unexpected.

"No, it's not the two of us, it's the children in robes."
"... Is she? Why again?"
"That child is Ray. He is an adventurer of the city of Gilm, who joined us in the war against the Empire of Bestia, and who organized and burned down the enemy's vanguard, and who joined the surprise attack against the enemy general. The war has given me the nickname of crimson."
"...what?"

 The adventurer's words must have been unexpected. a stupidly wide‐lipped receptionist
 After a few minutes, I finally asked.

"You're notorious? You're lying, aren't you?"
"Really. I don't think it's a good idea to get such a nickname when you see that flame tornado."
"Oh, that was amazing,"
"Not that it's amazing, but it's scary."
"... it's true that I'm glad I'm not the enemy."

 I nod to the man's words, muttering his consent to the party.
 The receptionist continues to stare at such a situation in amazement.





"What? What?"
"That's why you're going to Emocion, isn't it? Take us with you know. It would be a bit interesting to see us kill the prize-head monster who was mistaken for the prize-head."

 In the street cafeteria, Egrett was asking for Ray's destination and purpose, eating a large amount of food on the table.
