Legend

That night we left the city of Gilm. Ray and Elaine and the others had stopped the carriage to a scenic spot before sundown to prepare for the camp.

Most importantly, the two of Elaine and Arla rest in a room spread out in the carriage, so only three men sleep outside.

And Custe and Ver set up a tent for themselves, and Ray also set up a tent for himself a little further from there.

"I'm sorry, my lord of Custe."

Ver approaches Ray, who has a tent, and speaks up.

The way he was apologizing with his hands up was in a mild condition that he didn't think was very aristocratic. There will be a handful of people who can tell by looking at this vel at least the same aristocracy as Custe.

I would have put up a bigger tent and used it with three guys, but Ray put out a tent for himself that Custe had put in the mistering because he was so hard against it.

It was more of a welcome matter because Ray didn't want to breathe the same air as Custe, who knew he was looking down on himself.

Turn your gaze toward Ver, who spoke up in a light tone as he struck the pile to keep the tent from falling.

There doesn't seem to be anything in that tone that should also be called an aversion to yourself, as I felt in the city of Gilm, and I shake my head while I remember my doubts in my heart.

"What, never mind. I don't care what he and I think. And..."

Chirali, and I turn to Seto, who is pulling the other side of the tent to keep me from falling.

"They don't feel more comfortable with Seto than I do. Given the possibility of a strange rub, you should rest in a separate tent from the beginning."

"It would help if you could say that. And Custe. Yeah, there are some good places to see it. Well, I rarely show that to anyone other than nobles..."

Even while I'm saying it that way, I'll hit the pile and finish the tent.

"That's the adventurer, you're used to it"

"Really?

"Grrrrrrrrrr"

I gently pull Ray's dragon robe with a couch as Seto rings as Ray and Ver are having a conversation that way.

Ray turns to Ver when he finds out what Seto wants him to do just with that ringing.

"Sorry, Seto seems hungry. I'm gonna take care of the iron snake I put away at noon, so we're gonna get out of here a little bit."

"Oh, okay. Don't worry, I'll tell Master Elaine from me. Take your time. If you're always solo, you'll always be tired of being with people."

"Well, I'm pretty much acting as a group when I'm on an oak crusade or a rank promotion exam,"

That said, we travel a little further away with Seto.

In the meantime, Ray twists his inner neck as he remembers his earlier conversation.

(Ver did warn me yesterday, that's for sure. But why is it only one day away from that alarm? Ara is something similar, but I know she's going to be unexpectedly lightly alert if she has a mouthfeel from you, rather than having a heart attack on Elaine over there... because she admires it. But that's not how Vel does it either. Not to mention being a bandit for this party... well, fine. I'm only a temporary party personnel and a seconded escort from the city of Gilm, so I wouldn't have to stick my neck in the extra)

Even so, for some reason, Ver's unsettling words and actions lingered on his chest.

"Gru?"

What's the matter, I shake my head gently at Seto, who just looks up, and then I take the iron snake out of the mystering.

At the same time, what I haven't taken out in a long time is a book with material stripping on it.

Seto stares at the condition and waits for the material to finish stripping. That appearance, from the edge, would also have made Griffon with the body of a lion look like a nostalgic dog.

I look at the book with a grin unexpectedly at how it looks.

"Er, Ironsnake's crusade proof site is fangs... without"

Somehow he was crushed in the head by Seto's arm. The fangs are blowing off somewhere at the same time as the head.

"Gru......"

"Uh, never mind. Everyone has a mistake."

Even as I stroke Seto, who looks depressed, I continue to read about the material.

"Is the material... skin? Well, he's definitely such a defensive snake as to be called Iron Snake, so he's going to be able to easily divert to protective equipment and stuff."

Squeeze, pull out the misrill knife that is resting on your hips. The only reason I don't give out the normal knife I always use here for material stripping is because it's called iron snake, and the blade is hard to get through and peel off with a regular knife.

As it is, it magically protects the Mithrill Knife's fullness through magic, while inserting a blade from the neck of the Iron Snake to peel the skin with the scales still attached.

Ray, who used to be very bad at this stripping, has also been taught the trick by Elk, the Axe leader of the Thunder God during his oak crusade, which was now considerably better than before. Although the skin peeled from the iron snake still has some flesh pieces on it, it looks like someone else's finish compared to when it was a water bear.

"Okay, and. Later..."

After that, he starts using magic to start a fire, replacing the trees that were growing around it with skewers and baking the meat of snakes that he smashed with a misrill knife. The seasoning is only salt, but Seto keeps the meat of the freshly baked snake in a good mood in his stomach without any particular concern. Also, I tried to feed the demon stone that I took out at last, but unfortunately, the acquisition of skills didn't happen.

"Grrrrrrrrrr"

Seto eats the meat cut by Ray as he throats in an upbeat mood. I hear footsteps for four from behind there.

That number alone immediately showed who was here, so there was an abrupt sign from behind that he was giving Seto a snake roast without any particular concern.

"... monsters also prefer cooked meat. I thought I only ate raw meat."

Looking back at you, it was the four Elainas who were there as expected. I look at Seto cheeky with a surprising look at Ironsnake's grilled meat in an upbeat mood.

Throw the roasted meat into Ceto with a bitter smile in Elaine's voice like that.

"Gru!"

Catch the flesh that flew in successfully with the couch and keep it in your mouth.

"You've been living with me for a long time, so I know the roasted meat is delicious. A regular griffon probably eats raw meat."

"Hmm. I've fought monsters a few times before, too, but I don't remember hearing about eating roasted meat."

"Ah, Master Elaine. I remember reading in some book that firedragons burn and eat their prey with firebraces"

"Hmm. I do hear that many dragon species have higher intelligence than people. Maybe that's possible."

Elaine snorts intriguingly at Ara's words.

And Ara was laughing gladly that she was able to attract Elaine's interest.

After watching for a while like that, Ray turns again to Elaine when he sees Seto finish eating the last meat of Ironsnake.

"Well, Master Elaine. What's the point of coming all the way out here?

"Mm-hmm. I want you to make arrangements, like I said during the day, before the sun goes down completely."

Kin, and Elaine, who plays the sheath of the jointed sword on her hips with her fingers.

Even that casual trick attracts attention because of Elaine's own beauty and charisma.

But Ray smiles bitterly and cuts off its suction and rises off the spot, distancing herself from Elaine.

"Gru?"

Lightly stroke Seto's head looking at himself strangely, telling him he doesn't need to worry, then take the death size out of the mysterious ring and set it up.

"Okay, promise is a promise and we'll deal with it.... It's a simulated battle for once, and since Master Elaine is also my employer, do you mind if the more dangerous magic is unplugged and purely a battle with weapons?

"Mmm, I'd like to see Ray's strength using magic too..."

It was Elaine who tells her dissatisfaction, but Ara's thunder falls on the words.

"Dear Elaine, Ray is right. What would you do if you scratched that beautiful skin!

"Well, well, Ara calm down, too. It's that Elaine in the first place, isn't it? I wouldn't imitate taking damage if it was easy."

It was Ver who told him in the usual mild tone, but the opposition comes out of the unexpected.

"No, I agree with Ara, too"

"... Custe, did you eat anything strange?

"Well, I'm just purely appreciating his prowess. As I said yesterday, he stands on his arm regardless of his personality.... No, you can say it stands too much"

"That much?

"Oh, my God, you were watching one of those yesterday, weren't you, Ver?

"Of course I was watching you, right? You know, where Ara ran off and suddenly Ray slashed her."

"Gu..."

Whatever they said, I couldn't imitate anything more than it was true that I ran wild. However, even though we are overwhelmingly underpowered compared to our own aristocrats if we are to harbour Ara, there is no choice but to react somewhat overwhelmingly because only a few of us headed to the city ruled by that central figure.... whether that one thing is excessive or not.

Elaine, who was listening to those three, opens her mouth in sigh.

"Apparently you should swallow Ray's opinion to keep Arla and the others from worrying. All right, then let's just say we're dealing with someone purely with weapons."

Elaine pulls out the connecting sword from the sheath of her hips and points that cut at Ray.

Ray, who received it, will also be able to stand death-size with both hands to react at any time.

……

Stuff each other in little by little as they silently peek into each other's gaps.

If it's a sword and a sickle, a sickle is only more advantageous for what it can attack from afar, but somehow Elaine's sword is not just a sword, but a continuous sword with both whip and sword characteristics. Elaine would be better up there when it comes to range.

(So if we go back to the state of the Long Sword, we can handle melee combat as well, so say convenient or cowardly...)

There's a jointed sword at close range and distance. Ray decides that the medium range is where the death size is advantageous.

Did Elaine think of the same thing again, when Ray tried to take a step forward, waving the jointed sword loudly.

In response to the motion, the torso grows and changes to a bladed whip, hitting the ray.

The original whip can even exceed the speed of sound if it is used by a skilled person. You can easily imagine how fast that speed is beyond what Elaine is wielding when she says it's not exactly a whip.

"Chi!

That blow I was able to react to because Ray has an extraordinary five senses and physical abilities over humans. He wields the death size in a motion that can be almost reflexive, and plays the tip of the sword of the jointed sword wielded around his torso.

"That's just great. I didn't know it would be easier to prevent my blow..."

Elaine whining like she was impressed, but there's a bitter grin in Ray's mouth about it.

"Dear Elaine, It's been a long time since I've had this blow.... but I'm also not happy to stay hit like this, so I'll go here next!

He kicks the ground and shrinks his distance from Elaine as he builds up his death size. Ray uses death-sized blades and patterns to play the end of the sword, which he repeatedly waves at a speed that makes Elaine and Elaine not exhale again.

"What's wrong, you don't dodge just to prevent it?

Swing the connecting sword again, the tip of the sword toward the foot of the ray as it crawls through the ground and glides just above the ground.

Ray plays that blow with a death-size pattern.

However, when Elaine returns her wrist, the bounced connecting sword changes its orbit in the air, pointing its tip towards Ray's torso. Playing it loud with a death-size blade again, Ray grins.

"Even if you dodge it, you can just change the track like you do now, so dodging at least critical is not a good hand in this case...... Yikes!

Play the connecting sword that attacked me again in Death Size as well as ever. But what was different was that I wielded the death size with stronger force. A jointed sword played larger than the previous one will have a larger gap if Elaine tries to change track.

And it wasn't the kind of ray that missed that gap.

Quickly kick the ground and step into your own time. Into the interior of the intermittent sword in an instant, Elaine waits for Ray by using her magic to return the intermittent sword to its normal state, even as she holds admiration.

"Ha!

I flush the swung sickle blade with my own body. For Elaine, who knows how heavy Ray's blow weighs, there's no option to take that blow. Because if I took it from the front and it stopped bouncing, I could have predicted that my arm would be paralyzed and the worst connected sword would fall to the ground like the day before.

(Surely Ray's blow is incredibly heavy. But that's why you can make a gap after you fire a blow all over your body!

Death-sized blow flushed along your torso. Elaine was aiming to poke a gap after taking that blow away...

"Huh!?

Immediately after it was recieved and shaken off. Death sizes are switched with little or no stagnation.

The magic item's unique ability not to make the user feel the weight of a death size allows Ray to manipulate a death size that weighs slightly more than 100 kg as if it were swinging in a tree branch.

"What!?

Still, the only reason I could react to that blow was because Elaine was afraid that the surrounding countries would call her General Princess. Stretch your body with magic to the jointed sword in a motion that can be described as reflective...

"Draw, right"

"Apparently so."

The death-sized blade touched Pitali and Elaine's neck, and at the same time the tip of the sword, stretched out like a whip of a jointed sword, was also stuck to Ray's side head.

"... such a draw with Master Elaine? I've never seen it before."

Surprised by the look on Ara's face like she can't believe it.

……

Custe learns once again the power of Ray and bites his back teeth tight.

"What a well. I thought my arm would stand, but not now. Just a little unexpected. I guess I should call it a happy miscalculation."

Ver opened his mouth in the usual light condition, but pointed his sharp gaze at Ray.
