"The guild's tasks have increased again."
"Because the Headless Horseman was defeated."
Everyone is gathering around the Adventurer's Guild's bulletin board, looking for tasks suitable for them.
In addition to those outrageous tasks such as [Medicine Man] and [Meat Target], the remaining tasks of collecting herbs, ores and defeating monsters have increased a lot.
But is there any point in doing the task now?
Sato Kazuma frowned.
He thought for a moment and said to them seriously: "Hey, Darkness, Megumin! I have something to tell you."
"...What's wrong, so serious?"
Everyone looked at him doubtfully.
Sato Kazuma suddenly made a useless declaration, saying: "In the future, I want to reduce the number of adventures! Since I got such a large sum of money from defeating the Headless Horseman, I want to live a leisurely and safe life!"
"Wait, what do you mean by that?!"
"That's right, I've never heard of it!"
As soon as they finished speaking, Megumin and Aqua refused.
The little chuunibyou loli raised her wand and said excitedly: "It's a big problem for me not to be able to fight strong enemies. I want to get the title of the strongest magician!"
"Give up, it's impossible in this life."
Sato Kazuma ruthlessly destroyed Megumin's enthusiasm.
Aqua also said anxiously: "No! I absolutely disagree! If Kazuma doesn't defeat the Demon King, won't I be able to go back?!"
It turned out that she was also one of the losers.
But in Xiao Lin's roll call, the Headless Horseman is just the vanguard of the Demon King, and it is still too early to return to the heaven.
Her desire to fight was instantly aroused.
"Wait a minute...what's going on with defeating the Demon King?" Megumin was stunned for a moment, then suddenly came over.
Darkness also said excitedly: "That is to say, I don't know about this at all!"
Yes, I forgot to mention that.
"Actually, our initial goal was to defeat the Demon King." Sato Kazuma said it directly without any foreshadowing.
If other people heard this, they would probably laugh so hard that their stomachs hurt. A few novices would just want to defeat the Demon King.
But there are absolutely no normal people in this team.
Megumin's eyes shone scarlet, which was proof of her excitement. She shouted, "I'm going! I'm going to defeat the Demon King! If I can successfully defeat the Demon King, I will definitely become the strongest Explosion Mage!"
"The Demon King or something... Defeat the Demon King or something... The captured female knight was toyed with in a dark secret room. Although defeating the Demon King is an extremely lofty ideal, being able to be toyed with at will has always been my dream! Hiss! ——Ha——hiss——ha——”
Darkness started generating electricity again.
Although it would be unreasonable for ordinary toilet paper not to kneel at the feet of the Demon King, a few female knights, but the Demon King would definitely not want a knight like Darkness.
Not to mention the exaggerated defense of his body, he is still a complete pervert.
You will definitely be thrown out of the house in disgust.
Sato Kazuma shook his head to get rid of these strange thoughts, and they said seriously: "In short, I am the type who just wants to live here leisurely, and never do anything dangerous!"...
After seeing the power of the Headless Horseman, he had more ideas in this regard.
Assuming that there are seven more people as powerful as the Headless Horseman, plus the Demon King who may be even more powerful, how can a few of them stand up to each other?
"Speaking of which, Aqua, hurry up and give me your skills!"
"...Banquet skill?"
"It's the high priest's skill!"
Sato Kazuma cursed angrily and said with disgust: "The only thing that attracts you is your high priest skill. Teach it to me quickly, and then you will be useless again!"
That's quite exaggerated and heartless.
But that’s the kind of man he is, with such
The behavior is also normal.
But Aqua disagreed.
Her big blue eyes were full of tears, and she cried and said: "I don't want it~ don't take away the meaning of my existence, don't want it~~~"
"This guy……!"
Sato and Zhen clenched their fists angrily.
He hates Aqua being like this the most. She is always useless, and occupies his own powerful skills without sharing them. He demands too much to take her on adventures.
It's obviously useless!
...He completely forgot that the Headless Horseman finally ascended to heaven under Aqua's powerful holy purification skills.
Maybe it was the relationship that made Aqua's troubles more impressive to him.
"Besides..."
Sato Kazuma sighed, looked at Kobayashi who was pretending not to be bothered, and said, "Since you want to conquer the Demon King, wouldn't it be better to let Kobayashi-senpai lead you?"
He has a smart mind, can take care of others, and has cheats.
The things they brought back from the other world have increased their strength a lot. As long as they continue like this, they will quickly defeat the Demon King without any need for their help.
To put it too much, they are actually holding us back.
After Xiao Lin heard his name, he pointed at himself and said in confusion: "...Eh? Me? Why?"
"Why... isn't Kobayashi-senpai one of the brave men sent to this world? Defeating the Demon King is your ultimate goal, right?" Sato Kazuma said.
"It's too much, Sato-kun, to leave the trouble to others. Besides, I never said that I wanted to conquer the Demon King."
"Well……"
Sato Kazuma was suddenly dumbfounded.
He thought about it carefully and found that Xiao Lin really never said that he wanted to conquer the Demon King. He subconsciously thought that the heroes sent by Aqua were all aiming to conquer the Demon King.
Did you misunderstand it? !
"Sato-kun, not all brave men's goal is to defeat the Demon King. In fact, most brave men are guys who bring trouble to this world. As far as I know, there is a man who created a machine that can destroy a country. Even now, he is still out of control, running around on the mainland."
"No, no way, hahaha..."
Sato Kazuma smiled awkwardly.
But after seeing Xiao Lin's expression that didn't seem to be fake, and thinking about Aqua's unreliable appearance, he always felt that it was very possible.
wrong!
Even if he said this, he would never be able to shake his heart!
Sato Kazuma said stubbornly: "In short, I will never do dangerous missions again. After receiving the bounty, I will live a comfortable and happy life here! Besides, how about I just quit the team? ?”….
at this time--
"Excuse me! Xiaolin! Your reward for defeating the Headless Horseman has come down!"
Luna's voice reached my ears.
Although her voice was not loud, it instantly calmed the noisy guild, and everyone's eyes were focused on her.
"First of all, I want to thank you, Xiaolin, for helping everyone defeat the Headless Horseman and save this town."
"Everywhere, everything should be done."
Xiao Lin said politely.
After all, the reason why the Headless Horseman came to attack was their team. If they didn't deal with the Headless Horseman, they would be dealt with by the other party.
"Then, let's distribute the bounty to everyone."
"Oh oh oh!!!"
Sato Kazuma was very excited. He had been looking forward to this day for a long time.
300 million Eris!
Enough for him to live a happy life in this town!
However--
"Eh?"
Sato Kazuma looked at the shriveled money bag in his hand. Compared with Aqua who was the most bulging, Megumin who was the second, and Darkness who was the third, his skinny money bag could barely make any sound when it shook.
Compared with Xiaolin's few checks, it was even pitiful.
"Wait! This isn't right!"
Sato Kazuma couldn't bear it anymore. He shouted loudly: "Isn't it 300 million Eris? Why is mine the least?!"
"How should I put it...Actually, this is based on the contribution made in defeating the Headless Horseman."
Luna explained awkwardly.
Because of Kobayashi's intervention, Sato Kazuma only fired one arrow and had no chance to show off his skills. This resulted in the pitifully small bounty he received.
"how come……"
Sato Kazuma lowered his head, looking extremely negative, but before anyone could comfort him, he simply raised his head again, grabbed a task list from the bulletin board, and said, "Everyone, let's do the task!"
"Wow--"
"Kazuma?"
"You scumbag..."
Everyone in the team looked at him with disgust.
But this is also Sato Kazuma’s style, isn’t it? .
