"... why are you here?"

　It must have been unexpected. While speaking out in surprise to Egrett and Miloire, Ray greets them with a pair of obes in his hand next to the pillow.

"Why did you say we were going to the city of Emocion for the prize-head?"
"Well, I've heard of it... but isn't it too early?"

　It hasn't been ten days since Ray broke up with the two in front of him on his way to the city of Emocion. Nevertheless, I had no idea why the two of them were in front of me in this town of Emosion, which would take about half a month from my previous breakup.

"Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha.
"... well, it's true that I was in a hurry. I've been on the move all day long."

　Miloire muttered as if to supplement Egrett's words.
　In fact, aside from Egrett, who is full of energy in Ray's eyes, Miloir's face is full of fatigue.
　Just by looking at his face, I was convinced that he had reached the city of Emocion almost without a break, as Miloire.
　And it also brings a ray of light to Ray's thinking.

(A few elite adventurers who can stop me until I reach the scene after Grimm forcibly transfers the REM race through spatial magic. And according to a previous story, Egrett came to the city because he wanted to fight a strong enemy, not because he was looking for prize money, Rem race material, or magical stones. Then...)

　mutter, and imagine the same Hendeca as yourself again.
　I thought it was reckless to let Hendeca and Icebird alone stop the Rem race, but if two Rank B adventurer warriors, Egrett and Miloire, undertake the avant-garde, it would be possible to let Hendeca in with Icebird Shen, who can help them out of the air.

(Hendeca himself used a sword as a weapon, so if he could buy me a bow or something and give me full support from behind... could he?)

　Ray, who had been calculating quickly inside, looks at the two, judging that he could possibly do it.
　At that moment, Egrett and Miloire almost instinctively sensed something that had run through them.
　Egrett's case was an expectation of battle, and Miloire's case was not good enough.

"It's just the right time," Come in and shut the door. I have a good story to tell you."
"Inside... it's a very small room, and why don't we talk in the dining room on the ground floor?"

　If the three of us go into the room and talk together, we'll inevitably get involved in a disturbance. Miloire, who has decided so, says so, but it's too late. My partner Egrett rushed into the room and pulled Miloire in as soon as possible.

"Come on, let me in. It's certainly small, but it doesn't mean that three people can't sit down."
"Hey, Egret! I don't think I'm going to have anything to do with the Lem Race."

　He tries to resist it, but with his sheer muscle strength, Miloire is easily dragged into Ray's room.

(...isn't this a very dangerous scene to watch from outside?)

　From the outside, it only looks like a man trying to bring a hated woman into his room. And with that thought, he muttered and disconnected the Grimm on the crystal next to his bedside -- which seemed to give him some air of stupidity -- when he called again later.
　Egret forces Miloire to sit on the floor, and Ray sits on the bed as the master of the room.
　This is because the room was so small that there were almost no furniture except beds, and there were no chairs or sofas.
　"However, this is why we are staying at a reasonable price because of the introduction of an unidentified but influential person called Arctos."

"Now, tell me a good story at once,"

　Ray nods to Egrett's words, who leaned his shoulder against the wall, and tells him what's going on. The attack methods and figures of the REM race cannot be confirmed, and most of all, the adventurers who came for the prize money are at a standstill due to this effect. But for some reason, when I fly across Seto, I almost certainly get attacked with a sea spear.

"Besides, he certainly seems to be a troublesome.
`But there's some way to deal with it if you say it like that and you have a good idea to bring us in?'

　At first, Miloire was unwillingly listening, but again, he was only a Rank B adventurer, and he was probably of some interest. turn one's eyes to Ray to encourage him to continue.
　Rey nods at Miloire's gaze.

"Yes, I succeeded in getting a magic item with a little trick."
"... a magic item?"

　nod to Miloire in return for parrotting

"""It's a magic item that uses spatial magic to detect and forcibly spread the opponent who attacked you."""
"Oh, come on! If it's true, it's not a powerful effect! That's what the guild and the country can do to get it."
……」

　The unexpected words explained by Ray's mouth make Miloire exclaim. Even though Egrett is basically a brain muscle and looks for a strong opponent, he looks dumbfounded as if he was unexpected to forcibly spread the opponent who attacked him to metastasize.

"If you think it's a dungeon magic item, it's a one-time disposable item."
"Well, if you can use such a powerful magic item over and over again, the country will really move. What kind of a messenger is he?"

　Ray continues to explain, glancing at the dumbfounded muttering of Miloir.

"Anyway, with this magic item, you can force a missing REM race to move to a specific location. The problem is that I can force a metastasis, but I can't do it myself. In other words, I have to fly to the destination on a set after I forcefully transfer the REM race."

　Egrett nods to Ray's words with a fierce smile.

"I see. So until Ray comes to that destination, I'll just have to deal with a monster called Lem Race, right?
"Oh, of course, I won't tell you to stop. If you can knock me down by the time I arrive, you can knock me down."
"Oh, that's what I've got to do," I'm glad I came to this town. You think so, don't you?"

　Miloire breathes at Egrett's words, sitting next to him, with his back against the wall.

"Well, you can fight a strong opponent, so that's all right with you." against monsters who can destroy ships underwater... underwater?"

　Miloire was responding dumbly to his partner, but suddenly he turned to Ray as if he had noticed something.

"Hey, Ray's magic items force you to move the object, right? So if you don't move it anywhere near this city, you can move it somewhere far away. Of course it's impossible to go to the distant sea. somewhere in the desert or forest That's the capital of the Empire of Bestia, which Ray says was hostile a little while ago."

　Ray shakes his head in silence, though Miloire says it was a good idea.

"Unfortunately, it's impossible to fly that far. So, as for a place, I'll find somewhere nice near the city of Emocion, and so on."
"Ah... I see. It's impossible to have a powerful magic item or anything."

　Ray nods to Egrett's words as he listens next to Miloire.

"Well, that's it. Anyway, the general flow of the strategy is that I will force the monster to transition in the sea, and there will be two of you and one more person I will explain later, but I will explain to you, so you guys, including that person, will launch an attack. Well, as I said before, if you can, you can knock me down, but if you can't, concentrate on stopping me. So, when I went to the reinforcements with Seto. That's what I'm thinking. Is there anything?"
"What about the other one? Is he as good as Ray is trying to get in?"If you are a good hand, I want you to help me. Ray shakes his head at Egrett, who asks with such a fierce smile.

"He's not that strong himself," He's an adventurer of rank D."
"Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey! Why bother to find such a low-ranked adventurer...unless he's as strong as Ray, but as far as I'm concerned, he doesn't seem to be."

　I guess it's because I missed my expectation that I'll be able to fight against a strong opponent. Ray opens his mouth with a faint smile at Egrett, who somehow tells him so grumpily.

"It certainly isn't strong in itself," But he's as good as I am. I'm taming an ice bird."
"I'm sure it's an ice bird..."
"Look, that's it. It's a monster that comes out in winter, and its individual ability is about D monsters, but when they flock together, they're treated as C monsters."
"Oh, he's strangely smart for a monster,"
"Well, if you're bad at it, you might be smarter than you are."

　Egrett laughs at the irony of the mumbling Miloire.

"I understand the importance of cooperation,"
"...yes,"

　Miloire smiles bitterly at the emptiness of not being taken as irony.
　In the face of these two, Ray brings back the topic that had been out of place.

"It's an adventurer named Hendeca, but given that he's taming a flying monster iced bird, it'll help keep you in check. He is not a fool to run wild in hopes of success."
"Well, you're in charge of the matter, so if Ray says so, I don't mind... it's not just a drag, is it?"
"I know enough about my ability,"
"Then I have no complaints," but, as I have said, if I should get in trouble, I might have to cut him off."
"Oh, I'll be very careful about that," And as for my share of the reward..."
`Of course we'll get what we deserve, won't we?'

　Ray nods to Miloir's words.

"Of course, but use the magic items you just got. As for my share, would it be all right if I had the most?"
"Oh, yes," I can fight against a strong enemy."
"Hey, Egret. You should be a little attached to money, too. ... well, it's certainly a strategy that can't be done without Ray's magic items. ...let me see those magic items."
Sorry, but it's a lot of fragile magic items. I can't lend it to you, so you'll just see what I have, but will that be all right?"

　I can't help but show you the magic items that are supposed to be the backbone of this strategy.
　Naturally, as long as the forced transition is done by Grimm, it's absurd to say magic items, so we'll take out something that looks like it from the mystery ring.
　The next moment, Ray's right hand is loaded with a crystal ball about 5 cm in diameter, and Miloir and Egrett's eyes are wide open when they see it.

"Is this... magic item for forced metastasis?"
"I don't think I've got such a powerful power in my eyes,"

　Fortunately, he was a pure warrior who did not have the power to sense magic, whether Egrett or Miloire. because Ray's crystal was nothing but an ordinary one, and on the contrary, he had only bought it for some reason at a general store in the town of Gilm.
　Show them the crystal for about 30 seconds and put it back in the mistling.
　It was because I wanted to avoid continuing to put out a rag.

"Well, for the most part, we've decided," All we have left to do is to speak to Hendeca... well, shall we meet in front of the guild when the nine o'clock bell rings to-morrow morning?"
"I don't mind... where should we stay? I'll tell you, three people can't stay in this room, and I don't like a room with two men?"
"Well, it's a small trap in this room,"

　Egrett looks around the three-mat room and says so with a smile on his face, but Ray shrugs his shoulders.

"For the time being, there seems to be no room available in this inn, so please do something about it. It seems that it is difficult to stay at a hotel because of the large number of adventurers gathered about the REM race."
"Ah... there were certainly a lot of adventurers. Miloire, let's say we're going to pick up our lodgings soon."
"Well, I want you to give up sleeping in the open air in the city." ... then, Ray. For the time being, I'll take the guild at nine tomorrow morning, won't
"Oh, that's all I'm meeting with Hendeca," So please."

　Thus they managed to beat the Rem race, and Egrett and Miloire went out into town to find a place to stay.
