Sato Kazuma is very awkward.
He said that he wanted to stay at home and not care about anything, but once he was compared with others, he developed that strange unwillingness to admit defeat.
Just like this level comparison.
"I'll say it again, I just don't want to fall behind. If I were told about my level every day, I would be irritated."
Although he repeatedly clarified, others looked at him as if he was caring for a child who has not grown up and always likes to show off, which made Sato Kazuma clenched his fists but was helpless.
Forget it, I should have expected what kind of personality they have.
the most important is.
Sato Kazuma worriedly asked: "You guys, please don't do weird things to cause trouble. Got it?"
"Mingming and Zhen are the lowest."
"That's it."
"Why do we seem to be the weakest ones?"
Aqua and the others looked disgusted.
These problem children finally regained control in terms of level, and they suddenly became proud.
Hard, hard, fist hard.
Now Sato Kazuma really wants to use his fist to hit the faces of problem children who speak out loudly, so that they can see what a true feminist is.
But they were right.
Even though he is a brave man sent here by the goddess, he does not have special abilities like Yu Jian Xiangye and others.
Even the various parameters, except for luck, are lower than those of ordinary adventurers, even worse than Xiaolin, who didn't have any strengthening at the beginning.
To put it bluntly, being able to fight against the cadres of the Demon King's Army and solve the bounty objects was all thanks to Senior Kobayashi. He was just a parasite attached to other people's bodies.
...not good!
Looking at it this way, am I not the most useless one in the team? !
If he is useless, he will lose his foothold in the blink of an eye, and there will be no place for him in the team!
Sato Kazuma broke into a cold sweat.
"Don't think so, Sato-kun."
"Senior Xiaolin?"
"Have you forgotten, I rate you quite high. Even if you face a very powerful opponent, you will rely on cunning tricks to win and run away."
"Are you praising me or hurting me?"
Kobayashi's comfort didn't seem to have any effect, but made Sato Kazuma even less confident.
Soon the group was finished sorting out.
Then……
"Why is Miss Senna here too?"
As they headed straight out of the city, Kingdom Prosecutor Senna followed them. At first they thought they were just along the way, but Senna followed them until they arrived outside the city.
Sato Kazuma wondered: "Kingdom prosecutor, shouldn't you be very busy?"
"Yes, prosecutors have a busy job."
"That……?"
"I was just worried that you might cause some trouble, so I came with you. There are obviously a lot of things to deal with, but I have to come with you. I think the problem lies with you."
Senna pushed up her glasses.
She seemed worried about Xiao Lin and others, and what she said was quite hurtful.
But Sato Kazuma secretly complained: Those eyes keep falling on a certain person all the time, and it’s clear what he is thinking, right?
And someone who was being watched said: "Since Miss Senna wants to, let's come together."
"Thank you for your understanding, Mr. Xiaolin."
Senna pushed up her glasses again.
The expressionless look on his face seemed to have entered working mode, but when the group of people turned their heads away, the Kingdom Prosecutor, known as the evil ghost, immediately covered his face with his hands, and his beautiful face was already stained red.
It's a pity that no one saw this touching scene.
On the vast plains outside the town, residual snow can still be seen everywhere, but not too much. It seems that winter should be over soon.
A large part of this is due to them.
They had fought so hard against so many Snow Spirits, including General Dong once. They had worked so hard.
"Very good, this location is good."
Xiao Lin stood on a small slope and looked at the unobstructed plains in the distance. The geographical location here was very good, suitable for sniping.
Their targets are just the leading running lizard queen and the leader. As long as they are killed, the remaining running lizards will naturally disperse.
"Then let's arrange the tasks first."
Sato Kazuma stood on a high place and used a bow and arrow to enter a sniper state; Aqua used support magic to bless him; Darkness and Kobayashi acted as guards below; Megumin and Yuyu were there just in case Sato Kazuma failed to attract him. A backhand that blows away the monster group behind the target.
"I think it would be better to leave this task to Senior Xiaolin?"
Sato Kazuma touched his chin.
It wasn't that he was avoiding responsibility, but he always had an ominous premonition in his heart, which was exactly the same as when he died inexplicably before.
"I would agree if I could, but..."
Xiao Lin looked at his hands, his eyes a little hollow, and the smile at the corner of his mouth was filled with endless bitterness.
The breath of sadness came to my face.
This behavior made everyone feel strange, and Xiaolin explained: "Yuyou and I used bows and arrows before at the archery booth, but I didn't shoot a single product that time. Although I didn't use any skills that time, it might be Some kind of weird mental block developed and I became a little resistant to bows and arrows.”
"Eh? Is that so?"
Sato Kazuma was stunned for a moment.
He had only seen this kind of situation in anime, something like [Obviously he is an outstanding piano genius, but after being defeated by an even more talented person, he never wants to touch the piano again], or [The shot that was supposed to be a winning shot at the last moment failed. I lost because of my own mistakes, and I never want to touch basketball again after that... and so on.
I always feel like it’s ready for an anime.
The name is
——About my senior who chose not to use a bow and arrow anymore because he was embarrassed in front of girls. Later, with the encouragement of the harem, he picked up a bow and arrow again and felt great.
This is an anime that is long and cliche, and the content is clear from the title.
"It always feels like you're thinking about something weird."
"...No, Senior Xiaolin, you are thinking too much."
"Sato-kun, why are you covering your face? You know, right? I can know what you are thinking through your facial expressions."
"I wasn't thinking anything weird."
He must have had a strange idea, and Xiao Lin was thinking about how to punish him after returning home.
At this time, something suddenly didn't feel right about Huihui.
The middle school girl silently came forward and pressed against Xiao Lin. Because of her height, she could only look up, but there was a different look in her scarlet pupils, which seemed to be expressing something. .
"What, what's wrong?"
For some reason, Xiao Lin felt a little bit hairy.
That expression was like that of a wife who caught her cheating husband. Instead of making a fuss, she used silence to resist and get angry.
This makes it even more oppressive.
She is obviously a little loli who has no ups and downs at all, but she actually feels oppressive?
"Xiao Lin, you and Youyou are dating."
"...Wait a minute, why did you come to this conclusion?"
I couldn't understand the little Loli's brain circuit at all, and as soon as I said this sentence, it seemed that the atmosphere in the entire team was not right.
Xiao Lin looked like a scumbag trying to quibble, and said slightly anxiously: "No, no, I'm not dating Youyou! We just met by chance and walked around the town...!"
Suddenly I remembered.
The street they went to before was Axel's famous date spot!
Ruined!
In the eyes of little loli, this is a date!
Youyou also explained slightly anxiously: "No, no! Huihui, you misunderstood, I don't have a date!"
"Don't talk, Yoyo."
The little Loli glanced at her, not wanting to listen to good friend Ji's explanation, and then said softly: "No wonder, Yoyo got back a stuffed doll of General Dong that day, and the ruby brooch around her neck was also given to her by you, right? .”
Those eyes, that scarlet light.
No, not good! I'm going to be hit with a knife, I'm going to be hit with a knife!
Kobayashi was afraid that Megumin would pull a dagger out of the wand and insert it into his body.
……Wait a mininute.
Why should I be afraid? There is absolutely no reason to be afraid.
If you are upright, you are not afraid of slanted shadows.
This was completely a misunderstanding by Hui Hui. It was something she had never done, so there was no need to be afraid.
I looked down at my feet, which were not crooked, and I immediately felt confident.
But Huihui kept looking at him without saying a word, and her straight eyes were a little scary.
High emotional intelligence prevents him from saying "why are you looking at me like this", but high emotional intelligence also tells him that he must not turn a blind eye.
The little Lolita is not jealous or anything like that, she just feels that she has lost a lot, and she has lost to Youyou who has been competing with her, so that's why she is like this.
"I know, I know!"
Xiaolin took a step back, and at the same time stopped Huihui from passing the exam again, and said loudly: "Tomorrow, I will take you Huihui out to play together tomorrow, okay?!"
Hearing what he said, the little Loli's expression relaxed. , but still refused to admit defeat and said with a hint of arrogance: "I didn't ask for it, Xiaolin, you invited me."
"...Yes, yes, I invited you, I invited you."
Xiao Lin put his shoulders down and sighed helplessly.
"Did you hear that, Youyou, I was also invited by Xiaolin. It's not just you. No, it should be said that I was the one who took the initiative to be invited, and you just happened to be together."
The little loli turned her head to show off to her opponent, her unwillingness to admit defeat was fully exposed.
After all, she didn't say anything, but the book with the record of the battle with Youyou always carried it with her as a medal of victory.
"Aha……"
Seeing Huihui swearing her sovereignty, Youyou also sighed. She didn't expect that Megumin would care so much. She was already thinking about whether to distance herself from Xiaolin.
In her heart, Huihui is more important.
What is a good friend? (tactical fallback)
That’s it!
Xiao Lin's promise seemed like a perfunctory response to the noisy little loli, but after he agreed, things exploded.
Darkness and Aqua also looked at Xiaolin. Like Huihui, she didn't speak and just looked at him. That expression had completely exposed their thoughts.
In this regard, Xiao Lin also gave up on himself.
He closed his eyes, looked up to the sky and sighed: "I will invite you, I will invite you one by one. Whether it is Aqua, Darkness, Sato Kazuma, or Miss Senna, I will invite you to hang out. .”
The main thing is that it can absorb rain and dew evenly.
He looks a bit like a scumbag, but in order to prevent them from getting entangled in this kind of thing, they can only do this.
"Then, um... I, I want... too, do I want to come together?"
Senna couldn't help but push up her glasses. Her usually serious and cold face softened, revealing a slightly shy look.
Xiao Lin, who had given up on himself, didn't notice anything strange about her and said, "Ah, just think of it as Miss Saina taking care of us during this period. When the time comes, please be extremely grateful."
"I, I know..."
Senna nodded and agreed.
At this time, Sato Kazuma, who was on guard on the branch, said to them below: "Can you start the mission? I have already seen a group of running lizards."
"Okay, then-"
"Driving Flame!"
Before Kobayashi could finish speaking, Aqua suddenly used magic. As the blue-white flames gradually rose into the sky, Sato Kazuma's inner uneasiness became more and more intense.
The running lizards in the distance seemed to have seen the light of the fire, as if they were provoked monsters, they made shrill strange screams, and then rushed towards their direction.
"So fast!"
Seeing the shocking speed of the running lizard, everyone's expressions changed.
Then--
As the running lizards rushed in, everyone in the team was knocked to the ground.
As for Kazuma Sato, who was standing on a branch, the vibration from the footsteps of the monster group made him unstable, and he accidentally fell head first to the ground.
"I knew this would happen!"
He roared, then simply went to meet Eris.
