On the third day back.
Xiao Lin forcefully summoned the entire team early in the morning. Even the stupid goddess who was lying on the bed and refused to get up was dragged into the hall by him. Then he said in public:
"Everyone, let's go do the mission!"
"Eh————" X3
Except for Darkness, the remaining three people showed extremely disgusted expressions.
Aqua clung to the back of the sofa in front of the stove, huddled inside and yelled: "No—! I don't want it! It's still cold outside! I said, what's wrong with Xiaolin, are you stupid? There's no snow yet Melt, why are you so anxious to go outside! Are you a kid? You are almost like a kid who is clamoring to go out to play! If you want to go out then, just go by yourself!"
This guy……
She kept talking without giving anyone a chance to speak, but what she expressed was that she didn't want to go out.
He also said that Xiao Lin looks like a child. Now the goddess who is hugging the back of the sofa and unwilling to go out looks more like a child!
never mind.
Aqua didn't want to go out anyway, which was to be expected.
So what happened to the others?
Turn your attention to Megumin.
Seeing the great chuunibyou mage who had to go out every day to do the required homework, Megumin explained very plainly: "Anyway, I can only use my explosion magic once a day. After using it, I will be a useless person, so morning or night." OK."
Does she mean it's still early?
Look at the sky outside.
There is still some darkness in the sky, and the sun has not fully risen yet, so it is a bit hazy.
"And I'm still growing, so I need more sleep, so that I can release more powerful explosion magic!"
"...Forget it, you can't grow."
"What did you say?!"
Megumin's hope was ruthlessly dashed by Xiaolin. It was probably the regretful eyes looking at her chest that hurt her. Anyway, the little loli was in a state of frenzy right now.
As for the other one.
Sato Kazuma seemed to notice Kobayashi's eyes. He was silent for a while and said: "Well, according to past practice, I must be the one who gets injured in the end when doing tasks. If this is the case, then I will choose to get injured in the evening, thank you."
"Well……"
Xiao Lin was speechless.
This is really a sad story.
Every time Sato Kazuma does a mission with Aqua and the other problem children, he always gets injured for some inexplicable reason in the end, and is either slapped or fined. As a result, now he doesn’t do missions with Aqua and the others, which is the most profitable thing. of.
How did it become like this?
Xiao Lin was very distressed.
spring. Especially early spring is a season that makes people feel empty-headed just like winter.
But even so, the monsters have already appeared. Although the days have entered the realm of spring, there is still snow outside, and it is understandable that you don't want to go to work when the weather is cold.
"Don't blame them too much, Xiaolin."
"...Darkness?"
The mature and steady eldest sister in the team is interceding on behalf of the others, and she is also the only one who has no objection when she hears that she is going to do the task.
"Because everyone has no work in winter and has been lazing around at home. I accidentally developed a habit, so..."
Darkness looked quite embarrassed.
Because Xiao Lin was afraid that everyone would have no money after he left, he left a lot of savings.
However, the problem children who were supposed to be struggling for food and clothing in winter chose to stay behind closed doors after receiving sufficient funds, which eventually led them to get used to not working and living at home.
"It was my fault?!"
Xiao Lin was dumbfounded.
It never occurred to me that raising them to waste was their own problem.
Aqua took advantage of the situation and yelled unreasonably: "That's right! It's all Xiaolin's fault! If Xiaolin hadn't left so much money when you left, I wouldn't be like this at home! So Xiaolin hurriedly Take responsibility and take good care of me!"
Forcing the blame on others.
Scumbag, absolutely scumbag!
The lower limit is so low, there is absolutely no magnanimity that a goddess should have.
Xiao Lin looked at the stupid goddess who seemed to have found a good way and was proudly puffing out her plump breasts with disgust on her face.
Seriously, leave her alone.
The other two people who were unwilling to work were squatting at home, their eyes lit up, and they seemed to agree with Aqua's excuse.
He glanced at Xiao Lin tremblingly, his hesitant eyes expressing a certain urgency that he couldn't speak.
Xiao Lin naturally wouldn't give them a chance to speak.
He first looked at another male in the team and said, "Sato-kun, I learned a lot of good skills this time, don't you want to see it?"
"Eh?"
"I remember you once said that you wanted to get rid of the labels of scum, ghost, and stay-at-home. And you are also looking forward to experiencing magnificent adventures. You can't do anything if you stay at home all the time."
"this……"
Seeing that Sato Kazuma was hesitant, he continued to add the fatal blow.
"Besides, if you don't work, you won't have money. If you don't have money, you can't go to the succubus shop..."
"I go!"
Should I say it's a man's nature?
This trick is particularly useful for Kazuma Sato, who is addicted to the succubus shop.
As for Megumin.
"Speaking of which...I learned a super powerful magic."
"Eh----"
"It's stronger than explosion magic."
"……What?"
Megumin's ears immediately perked up when she heard that there was magic more powerful than explosion magic.
"Impossible, absolutely impossible!"
Exploding little Loli denied without any hesitation: "Exploding magic is the strongest and last attack method for human beings. There is absolutely no magic that can surpass it!"
"Oh ho, really?"
"Xiao Lin, what do you mean?"
"I also admit that explosion magic is very powerful, but Megumin, you don't seem to understand that there are people outside the world and there is a world outside the world."
"Are you trying to say that there is magic stronger than explosion magic?!...Are you provoking me? You are provoking me, right! Okay! My family rule is that I will definitely fight back if provoked! I accept it! You I accept your provocation! I will let you truly understand that the explosive magic is the best in the world!"
The little loli who is a middle-aged girl is very excited.
She didn't even give Xiao Lin time to react. She jumped up from the sofa, threw herself on Xiao Lin's back, hugged his neck and shook him desperately.
It looked like she had accidentally tainted the most important part of her heart.
never mind.
Anyway, just convince her.
Seeing that it was almost done, Xiao Lin waved his hand: "Okay, let's go."
"Oh——" X3
"Eh? Eh???"
The three people raised their hands and cheered, but Aqua stared blankly at the enthusiastic crowd.
And me?
what do I do?
"Wait, wait! Wait a minute!" The stupid goddess stood up from her seat, pointed at herself and asked, "Where's me! Have you forgotten me?"
She obviously said she didn't want to work.
Now he took the initiative to join in.
Sato Kazuma and others also looked at Xiaolin and asked what to do.
However--
Under the unexpected expression of everyone, Xiaolin showed a gentle smile, as if coaxing a child, and said softly to her: "It's okay, Aqua, just rest at home."
"Eh? Eh???"
If Sato Kazuma told her, Aqua would definitely stay at home with peace of mind and enjoy the other party's offerings.
But Xiaolin's behavior would only make her feel strongly uneasy.
"Xiao Lin?"
"What does this mean? Why can Aqua stay at home?"
Darkness and Megumin also felt something was wrong.
Only Kazuma Sato.
Only this squatter who has experienced this kind of thing can understand what is going on now.
"Yes, that's right."
With extremely pitiful eyes, he looked at the stupid goddess with a stupid look on his face.
Darkness and Megumin were worried.
"Kazuma, why did Kobayashi say that?"
"Explain it to me quickly!"
The two of them urged.
And Sato Kazuma seemed to be answering or mumbling to himself, saying something with melancholy on his face.
"Aqua, has been given up by Kobayashi-senpai."
Same as that time.
After he was abducted by his senior because of his childhood sweetheart and decided to stay at home, his parents, friends, and teachers looked at him with the same look.
That's the look in someone's eyes that has completely given up on someone.
"To put it simply, Kobayashi-senpai no longer has expectations for Aqua."
This is undoubtedly the most hurtful.
"I'll probably abandon Aqua soon."
"——!!!"
Like a bolt from the blue, Aqua was stunned on the spot.
In the blink of an eye, tears kept rolling in his eyes.
Before Xiao Lin could pull away, the stupid goddess jumped from the chair into Xiao Lin's arms and cried loudly, making his clothes wet in just a second.
It started to flood again.
Aqua hugged Xiaolin tightly and cried loudly: "No! No! Don't abandon me, don't do that kind of thing!!!"
"Let, let go, idiot!"
Xiao Lin pushed her face away in disgust and pulled out a long strip of transparent mucus.
It turned out to be snot!
"It's so dirty! Let go!"
"No! Besides, I'm the goddess of water, so I'm not dirty!"
Aqua even rubbed Krillin's chest harder.
How dare you call yourself a goddess like this?
Quite sloppy!
"I know, I know!" Xiao Lin looked up to the sky and sighed helplessly: "I will take you, I will take you! So, can you let go?"
"real?"
"real."
"real……"
"Hello!"
Seeing that Xiao Lin was really angry, Aqua jumped down and stood beside her obediently.
Xiao Lin patted her on the head and showed a flattering smile.
Really.
Where is the goddess?
At the same time, Kobayashi and Sato Kazuma secretly gave each other a thumbs up.
The battle to bully Aqua was a success.
Ever since he came back, the stupid goddess seems to have someone to rely on. If she doesn't beat her, she won't be able to go to heaven?
But I didn’t expect Sato Kazuma to cooperate so well. Is this the tacit understanding between men?
After Xiaolin's efforts to persuade (threat), the team finally went on the mission.
After the noise, it happened to be daybreak.
Everyone rushed to the Adventurer's Guild and successfully accepted the mission to defeat the monsters.
Spring is here and everything comes to life.
It's the breeding season for animals again.
Led by the giant toad, various monsters have begun to move actively outside the town and are beginning to cause harm to the farmers.
Come to the city gate.
Looking around, there is still a snowy outskirts of the city.
Out of curiosity about how they performed the task after he left, Xiaolin proposed to let them demonstrate.
Then--
"No!!!! I've had enough-! I don't want to be eaten by toads anymore!!!"
Aqua's screams echoed in the plains on the outskirts.
Sato Kazuma looked at Aqua, who was being chased by a giant toad on the plain, and said with sadness: "The toads here will not become sluggish in their movements in the cold environment. They are mobile. The speed is no different than usual."
"Yeah, and the creatures and vegetables here are all strong enough."
Xiao Lin nodded in agreement.
Even though the giant toad looks cute and stupid, it is still the lowest level monster in "Su Qing". But in fact, regardless of its weakness of hating iron products, its strength is about the same as that of the monsters in Dungeon LV2.
Of course, the reason why novice adventurers can easily solve them is because they can determine the relationship between professions from the beginning.
On this point, Megumin testified:
"It is precisely because the environment of this world is so harsh that all living things will try their best to live in every moment. We cannot lose, we must become stronger and survive in this harsh world."
Her little face was expressionless and looked serious.
Quite seriously.
——It would be more convincing if she had not been swallowed by the giant toad at this moment and had reached the shoulder position.
Probably because of the experience of being swallowed again before.
The little Lolita seemed quite calm in this situation, making no resistance and letting the giant toad devour her.
Before this, she had already used explosion magic to eliminate many monsters.
In order to prove that explosion magic is the strongest, Megumin squeezed out the magic power and used all her strength to release a huge mushroom cloud.
Then he fell straight to the ground.
The little Loli who couldn't move was simply swallowed by the giant toad that surrounded her. But even the giant toad didn't make the next move, probably because the wand was stuck in his throat.
Xiao Lin took a step forward and said, "Wait a moment, I will rescue you now."
"No, it's not too late to wait until you defeat the giant toad chasing Aqua. Anyway, it's so cold outside, but it's warmer in the toad's mouth."
"Hello……"
What are you protecting?
Aqua was chased by a giant toad, Megumin was swallowed into her stomach, and Darkness was surrounded by four or five giant toads while playing bondage.
Tears of regret shed from the corners of Sato Kazuma's eyes.
"Senior Xiaolin..."
"I see."
Even if Sato Kazuma didn't take action, Kobayashi could predict the next development.
He must have rushed to save them, and then his fists were no match for Four Hands (tongue), and he and he were also devoured by the giant toad.
Why does this happen?
Have they already received [favor]? Logically speaking, the strength should be stronger than before, right? Why can't even a novice adventurer defeat a giant toad?
Is it intentional? Just because it's a comedy show, that's why you did it on purpose, right?
Seeing the giant toad approaching, Xiao Lin knew it was his turn to take action.
Just when he was ready to take action.
"——Light Of Saber!"
A clear voice echoed across the plains.
At the same time, a ray of light flashed across the body of the giant toad that swallowed Megumin. After a beat, the monster instantly split into two halves.
Just as Kobayashi caught Megumin who fell from mid-air.
“—Energy Ignition!”
The clear voice sounded again.
At the same time, the three giant toads that were approaching everyone suddenly burst into flames, spitting out tongues of fire as if burning from within, and turned into blue-white fireballs.
The aroma of cooked meat fills the air.
At this time, a petite figure wearing a black robe appeared in front of everyone.
"……who is it?"
Everyone who was rescued looked confused.
