"Aqua, you said you cracked the [favor]?"
"Well, that's right!"
Xiaolin, who mistakenly thought he had heard wrongly, checked with Aqua again and received a positive answer.
Seeing Xiaolin's surprised and hesitant expression, Aqua puffed up her chest and claimed the credit proudly: "Who do you think I am? I am Aqua, the goddess of water wisdom! It's just a [favor] from another world, crack it for me It’s a piece of cake for me! So!… The guild still owes 200,000 Eris in debt, and it’s already being pressed hard. Please, Xiaolin, help me!”
Her attitude suddenly changed, and she cried and asked Xiao Lin for help.
This guy……
I had to wonder if she was being charged because she owed money, so Aqua hurriedly broke the favor.
Others may not do that, but the stupid goddess in front of me is likely to do such a thing.
Did you go to the guild to buy wine on credit in your own name again? When will we learn from Kazuma Sato and make money to buy bubble wine by ourselves (go to Succubus shop)?
To be honest, I really want to teach her a lesson.
But forget it.
Aqua has indeed made a great contribution by cracking [Favor]. If she were to be taught a lesson again, it would probably dampen the enthusiasm of the idiot goddess.
After thinking for a moment, he came back to his senses and saw Aqua looking at him timidly, as if she was afraid of getting angry. In other words, if you are afraid of being blamed, then don’t do it!
If we didn't know that Aqua's true nature is hard to change, we would really wonder if she had some special hobby like the perverted knight and did this on purpose.
Sigh deeply.
"I'll make up the balance later."
"Really?!"
"But! The reward this time is gone, do you understand?!"
"……Yes Yes!"
Xiaolin lowered his eyes and successfully made the idiot goddess remember her lesson.
Of course, it's temporary.
When you make a mistake, correct it, and after you correct it, make it again; after you have made it, correct it again, and after you have corrected it, make it again, and practice again and again - Aqua is the perfect portrayal of what Uncle Motoyama said.
Xiaolin then called his companions together and informed everyone of the existence of [Favor].
It was not directly said that it was obtained from the gods of another world, but it was said to be a permanent additional status created by Aqua that allows everyone to break through the original professional boundaries.
Several people expressed interest after hearing this.
Needless to say, Sato Kazuma has the lowest attribute value in the adventurer class and cannot change classes at all, so he wants to rely on favors to make a good comeback.
Megumin is willing to try it as long as it can increase the power of [Explosion Magic].
Darkness also had the same idea. As long as she could take a harder beating... bah, if she could withstand more injuries and protect more people, she would be willing to give it a try.
"So……"
Xiao Lin simply took off his shirt.
When Darkness saw this, her face turned red instantly, and she stammered: "Xiao Xiaolin, what are you going to do? I've never heard that you have to take off your clothes to become stronger! Could it be that we also Do you have to take off your clothes? Do you want to open a banknote...!"
"how could it be possible!"
Xiao Lin interrupted her strange delusion.
[Favor] needs to be unlocked by engraving the blood of God on the back, so you need to take off your clothes.
"Yes, that's right."
Darkness please take a breath, but what does that look of loss mean?
"Wait a minute, Senior Xiaolin."
Sato Kazuma suddenly stopped
Xiao Lin asked strangely: "What's wrong, Sato-kun?"
"Is this stupid goddess really trustworthy? To be honest, I don't have any expectations for her anymore. She always fails to come in handy in inexplicable places, and she always delays her... I hold on to the [favors] she has created. There's a lot of doubt."
"What did you say?! Idiot Kazuma, are you looking for trouble?!"
When Aqua heard someone questioning it, she got angry on the spot.
But Xiaolin stopped him.
He sighed and said: "Sato-kun, haven't you heard: Verifying the truth always requires someone to sacrifice. If no one verifies it, how can we ensure that the [favor] is effective?"
"But……"
"Otherwise, Sato-kun, will you come?"
"I reject!"
Sato Kazuma looked disgusted.
It was because he didn't trust Aqua that he said that. It was absolutely impossible for him to try.
Having been tricked so many times by Aqua, if he didn't have a longer memory, he would really be a big fool with an IQ equal to Aqua's.
Seeing that several people were worried, Xiaolin comforted them: "Don't worry. Aqua is a goddess and can be resurrected even if something unexpected happens, so there is nothing to worry about."
If one goddess doesn't work, then get another one!
Aqua and Eris, the two goddesses exert their power. Even if there is only a speck of dust left, they can be forcibly resurrected by the power of the goddess. It can be said to be the ultimate abnormal ability.
This is also where Xiaolin’s confidence lies.
Aqua also patted her chest and promised: "Don't worry, there is absolutely no problem with the [favor] I cracked! Even if there is a problem, Xiaolin can be resurrected, there is no need to worry!"
"Really...Senior Xiaolin, if something goes wrong, you must stop it immediately."
"Oh, I will."
For some reason, Sato Kazuma's inner uneasiness became stronger and stronger.
Every time the stupid goddess said this, something would go wrong and they would be in a hurry.
Then, Xiao Lin was sitting cross-legged on the bed with his upper body naked. Aqua half-knelt behind him, closed her eyes and mobilized her divine power. The god's iconic haori appeared behind her, floating in the air.
Aqua had such a goddess-like aura that some people were slightly surprised.
So, who is this?
Under the expectant and nervous gaze of everyone, Aqua bit her finger, and the bright red liquid with a touch of blue and full of divinity dripped on Xiaolin's back, and then rippled into it like water droplets. .
Ding--
A voice that only Xiao Lin could hear appeared in his mind, and a feeling of breaking the shackles came to his heart.
At the same time, an aqua blue magic circle appeared on Xiao Lin's back. The words around it were quite complicated but also had a touch of sacredness, and the pattern surrounding it was clearly the emblem of the Axis Cult.
Before the few people could take a closer look, the aqua blue light dissipated, and the pattern on Xiaolin's back was hidden again.
In the blink of an eye, it returns to its original appearance.
"Huh? Is it over?" Sato Kazuma blinked and blurted out words that would make the man ashamed.
The meaning is still not finished.
This was the look on everyone's face.
What happened just now was indeed magical. The only regret is that it ended before I could see the whole process clearly.
"Senior Kobayashi, do you feel stronger?" Sato Kazuma asked anxiously.
Xiaolin smiled and said: "Sato-kun, [favor] is not something that can make people stronger immediately. It is just a catalyst, a seed on the road to becoming strong. It requires continuous training to increase proficiency... …Ahem!”
Before he finished speaking, Xiao Lin suddenly covered his chest and screamed in pain.
"Senior Xiaolin?"
Sato Kazuma saw Xiaolin's twisted expression, and his inner uneasiness was finally fulfilled.
pain! It hurts so much!
Xiao Lin only felt that his heart was contracting violently, his whole body was in pain, and a fierce burning sensation continued to travel throughout his body.
Not just the body!
Deep in my heart, even where my soul was, I felt a sharp pain.
Brain, brain is shaking!
Is there something wrong with Aqua's cracking?
Or is that the beauty god secretly playing a trick?
The severe pain interfered with his ability to think. Moaning and howling could effectively relieve the pain, but now Xiaolin could not squeeze out any sound from his throat. He was curled up and shaking violently, and his face was as distorted as that of a lazy priest.
"S-Senior Xiaolin?!"
Sato Kazuma wanted to touch, but he was afraid of having a greater impact on Xiaolin, so he could only turn his head and angrily yelled at the dumbfounded Aqua: "Hey! Stupid goddess! What the hell is going on, give it to me quickly Let me explain!"
"I, I don't know either! By the way, don't always blame me! My thinking ability has been interfered with!"
Aqua also fell into panic.
She obviously followed the instructions on the parchment, but she had no clue why this happened.
"Do you still have the ability to think?" Sato Kazuma wanted to teach her a lesson, but the time was not right now, so he had to say: "Then use your thinking ability quickly and find a way to alleviate the pain of Kobayashi-senpai!"
"I know, don't rush me!"
Aqua also hurriedly used magic to heal Xiaolin, but doing so was counterproductive.
"Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah!!!"
Xiaolin howled loudly in pain.
It was as if water had entered the frying pan, and Xiaolin's pain level went up to another level! But fortunately, my throat can produce shouting sounds, and I feel an inexplicable sense of relief when I open the gate to release water.
No, I'm not a pervert!
Xiao Lin has never been in such a panic.
Seeing this, Sato Kazuma hurriedly asked Aqua: "Hey! What are you doing, why is Kobayashi-senpai in more pain!"
"Haha?! I didn't do anything weird, I just used healing magic! And, in order to better heal Xiaolin, I also used divine power!" Aqua spat back angrily, after all, she It seemed that he was doing everything right and even used his divine power.
But Kazuma Sato always felt that it was related to divine power.
"That's enough, you better stop taking action!"
"It has nothing to do with me in the first place!"
As if wanting to prove that it was not her fault, Aqua increased the output of her divine power, but unexpectedly, Xiaolin's howling became even louder.
"--Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah!!!"
"……Huh?"
Now the stupid goddess had to admit that it was her own problem.
Darkness's eyes lit up when she saw Kobayashi's painful expression, as if she wanted to suffer for him.
Those who knew that Xiao Lin was suffering, but those who didn't know thought that Xiao Lin was enjoying it.
"Okay, great! Will I be in such pain later? Is this the so-called price of gaining strength? This unbearable severe pain...ah! This is the necessary training to gain strength! What should I do? , what should we do! There is no other way! In order to gain strength, in order to gain the power to protect our companions! The only choice is to endure the pain! That’s right! To endure the pain!”
Hiss-ha-hiss-ha-
An incomprehensible gasp came from her mouth.
The perverted knight is eager to try!
Sato Kazuma couldn't help complaining: "Please don't add unnecessary drama to yourself! You perverted knight!"
Megumin also looked at Xiaolin with concern and couldn't help but said: "Aqua, is there really nothing we can do? Xiaolin... Xiaolin seems to be in pain."
"This, this..."
Aqua scratched the back of her head in embarrassment, inexplicably feeling the beauty of a missing brainstem.
Everyone looked at Xiao Lin with a sad expression.
Presumably Aqua turned on the switch, and Kobayashi's pain was relieved by howling, which continued at a strange frequency.
Five minutes, ten minutes, thirty minutes...
Megumin couldn't help but said: "What's going on? I'm not nervous or worried at all."
"Yeah, indeed."
"Feel the same."
Aqua and Darkness also agreed.
"You should be more nervous!" Sato Kazuma couldn't help complaining, but in fact he couldn't worry about this situation anymore.
think carefully.
It's like the child next door crying loudly because of something. He may be sympathetic or irritated, but when he starts howling at a subtle frequency, the sympathy and irritability disappear instantly.
This is the mood of Sato Kazuma and others.
Gradually, Xiao Lin's howl weakened and turned into a faint moan. His body still twitched from time to time, but his eyes burst out with a different kind of light. Clear and translucent, with a hint of charm.
Sato Kazuma hurriedly came forward and asked with concern: "Senior Kobayashi, how are you feeling? Are you feeling uncomfortable anywhere?"
"No... rather, this feeling has never been better."
Xiao Lin squeezed his hands unconsciously.
[Favor] Does it have this effect?
Although it was painful just now, I felt that my whole body and even my soul were completely purified during the process. When it was over, I felt like I had been reborn.
"——I'm so high!"
"Senior Xiaolin..."
If Sato Kazuma hadn't known Xiaolin's true personality, he would have suspected that Xiaolin had the same strange hobbies as the perverted knights in the team.
At this time, Aqua came up again.
The idiot goddess was unhappy and said with arrogance: "I told you, there is absolutely no problem with the [favor] I cracked! So, it's time to believe me now!"
"...Are you serious?" Sato Kazuma had a new understanding of Aqua's shamelessness.
Aqua argued, "I told you it's not my fault! Besides, in order for Xiaolin to successfully engrave the [favor], I concentrated my divine power and integrated it into the divine blood. In theory, it would be easier to grant it!" So, apologize quickly! Say sorry to me quickly!"
"This is it, this is it!"
Kazuma Sato immediately grasped the crux of the matter.
Under the expression of the stupid goddess who didn't know her fault, she couldn't help but angrily shouted: "You idiot! It must be because you concentrated your divine power into the divine blood and did unnecessary things, and then Senior Xiaolin became so painful! "
"……Eh?"
"You! It's like this every time, why do you always do superfluous things!"
"Huh--!!!"
Only then did Aqua realize that it was really her fault!
"X-Xiao Lin..."
The stupid goddess suddenly looked at Xiao Lin with tears in her eyes, not because she was ashamed of her fault, but because she was afraid that Xiao Lin would be angry and punish her.
"Forget it, I'm not angry."
Ordinary [favor] has no additional effects. As Xiaolin said before, it is just a catalyst, a seed, and it will not make people stronger.
But this time it was obviously different. Xiaolin had a hunch that Aqua's transformation [favor] would be of great benefit to him.
Let me look forward to the attribute column after granting the favor.
"Aqua."
"I understand. Wait a moment while I engrave it."
The light this time was short-lived. After a flash, Xiaolin's attribute bar was engraved and thoughtfully converted into the special text of "Su Qing".
