"Okay, this is the last one!"
Early the next morning, Aqua expelled all the evil spirits, and then breathed a sigh of satisfaction.
"There are so many of them, it lasted until dawn in a blink of an eye."
Darkness looked at the sky outside and said this.
Having said that, Aqua is indeed an expert in dealing with undead monsters.
Such a large mansion was purified in one night.
Sato Kazuma rubbed his swollen eyebrows, looked at the doll still floating beside him and said, "Hey, Aqua, aren't you going to purify her too?"
"Why do you have such terrible thoughts? She is just a harmless little girl."
"You guy..."
A guy who howls and pounces on liches and evil spirits like hounds when he sees them actually says that ghosts are harmless little girls. Are you kidding me?
At this time, you should do your job as a goddess and let her be blessed and reincarnated!
"Okay, okay, don't say that." Xiao Lin patted him on the shoulder and said, "Anna doesn't mean any harm, she just likes to listen to adventure stories, and I have already negotiated with her and will not attach any importance to her in the future. Being on top of a doll to scare people.”
As if in response to Xiao Lin's words, the doll in mid-air suddenly lost gravity and fell on his shoulder.
"Is this the problem..."
Sato Kazuma was speechless and choked.
He discovered that Xiaolin had used his ability to see things out of sight to the extreme.
But think about it carefully.
Anna is an existence equivalent to an earthbound spirit. Through Kobayashi's mouth, he learned that she was very pitiful when she was alive. Sato Kazuma's sympathy also made him relax a little.
——As long as you don’t scare him and make him pee his pants in the middle of the night.
"By the way, let's go report to the guild."
Sato Kazuma suddenly mentioned.
Xiao Lin raised his eyebrows and said, "In principle, this is correct, but why?"
"Because I can get a bounty!"
When they learned from Luna that the mansion was for sale, it clearly stated that there would be a reward for completing the task. Although it was nothing compared to the team's savings, no one disliked money.
...Except for Dad Ma.
"I can get a temporary reward, and maybe I can know the reason for the proliferation of Axel's evil spirits."
"You're right, go and have a look."
His words were unanimously agreed upon by everyone.
Kobayashi's strange eyes turned to Aqua again, and the body of the stupid goddess with keen intuition trembled slightly.
She always had an ominous premonition.
And this premonition was confirmed by Luna.
"Regarding this case, as for the reason for the sudden increase in evil spirits, the guild has already found out. Isn't there a cemetery in the town? I don't know if it's a prank or something, but someone has laid a huge barrier with sacred attributes in that cemetery. So the spirits that appeared in the cemetery had nowhere to go, so they had to come to town and live in empty houses with no one around them.”
As she continued to explain, Aqua's juices continued to flow. His legs bent down unconsciously, trying to sneak away.
Xiao Lin held her shoulders.
"Don't even think about escaping."
"Yes, I'm sorry..."
The stupid goddess apologized softly.
Sato Kazuma was stunned for a moment, and then he obviously thought of something.
He came closer and lowered his voice and asked, "Hey, you idiot Aqua, you know something, right? Come on, tell me."
"...Yes, yes." Aqua gave up her excuses and admitted respectfully, saying: "When Xiaolin was away, didn't Wiz ask me to go to the cemetery regularly to chant until the lost souls ascend to heaven..."
"Then you felt it was troublesome, so you put up a sacred barrier."
"Because there is no place for the undead to live in the cemetery. Wouldn't they just dissipate into the air naturally?!"
The idiot goddess said it righteously.
But Kobayashi and Sato Kazuma couldn't understand her magical brain circuit.
"The guild can't accept the temporary remuneration, is that okay?"
"……good."
Aqua looked apologetic and nodded.
"besides……"
Sato Kazuma looked at Kobayashi who turned his head and whistled.
"Senior Xiaolin."
"W-what?"
"Actually, you already knew from the beginning. Aqua did this, so that's why you looked at her with that look."
"It's just speculation. Everything about evil spirits is basically related to Aqua."
The explanation is very far-fetched.
Even Darkness and Megumin wouldn't believe this, let alone Sato Kazuma, whose IQ far exceeds the two of them.
"Wait, that's what you say."
Sato Kazuma seemed to have discovered something. He said: "Knowing that it was Aqua's fault, you kept lowering the price of that house, bought it at the lowest price, and then let Aqua, who is good at removing spirits, solve it. Why? Doesn’t it seem like it’s a scam...?!”
"Oh! I can't let you talk anymore."
Xiao Lin quickly covered his mouth and suppressed his voice with a louder voice.
After all, if you continue talking, you will teach the children bad things.
"Sato-kun, this is not a despicable thing. This kind of thing is very common in the adult world that you don't know."
"…………"
"You see, just like the adventurer [someone stole the money bag while teaching you stealing skills, and then asked if you want to play a game to see if you can steal a valuable dagger from me or it will be useless] Xiaoshizi] In that way, the intermediary and I just played a game that is common in shopping malls. Of course, the final result is that I won."
Sato Kazuma, who was originally a little unable to accept it, was able to accept it immediately after Kobayashi changed his mind.
"So, Senior Xiaolin made a lot of money?"
"No, it's a small profit at most. Despite the fierce quarrel during our negotiations, the intermediary's frustrated expression at the end. In fact, he didn't lose much, plus the added value from restoring his image. On the contrary, he made a lot of money."
"how come……"
Sato Kazuma will think of the appearance of the intermediary like a defeated rooster. Are they all fake?
"So, you still have plenty to learn."
Xiao Lin patted him on the shoulder.
Even if he is born to be a businessman, like a genius child who has not begun to learn, Sato Kazuma, who has not absorbed relevant knowledge, does not yet understand the twists and turns involved.
Of course, Xiao Lin also tried his best not to let him understand.
If he really learned them all, he would definitely become an even more scumbag than he is now.
After that, all the things were taken to the mansion and officially moved in.
The team spent a day.
evening.
Xiao Lin was pulling weeds in the corner of the courtyard when someone called him from behind.
"Xiao Lin, good evening, are you sweeping the grave?"
"Ah, it's Wiz."
The Lich lady behind me came here out of nowhere.
"Is there a problem?"
"No, I just came to take a look."
Wiz saw Xiaolin's clean and tidy tombstone, and said with a smile on his face: "This way, she will not feel lonely anymore."
"Yes, after all I promised her."
Xiao Lin smiled back.
Afterwards, the two happily pulled weeds and watered the tombstone together.
And on the tombstone, there is a faint handwriting that says - Anna.
