Volume 2: God's Blessing to This Beautiful World Chapter 038: Equal
However, according to the development of the plot, after this guy appeared, the monsters around Axel were scared and hid, so the Adventurer's Guild did not have any tasks suitable for novices.
The castle was discovered by Huihui who was bored, so she used explosion magic to blow up the castle once a day.
This made the Headless Knight very angry, so he came to Axel to find Yui who was making trouble, and asked Yui to stop doing this, but Yui righteously refused.
Then he cursed Huihui, but was discovered by Darkness, who accepted the curse on Huihui's behalf.
The Dullahan threatened that the curse would kill her in a week and left. If Darkness didn't want her to die, she should go to the castle to see him. However, she didn't know that the curse would be purified by Aqua after she left.
After returning to the castle, Bai waited for a week, during which time Huihui continued to blow up the castle with explosion magic. Afterwards, he came to Axel angrily, found that the curse had been lifted, and was ridiculed by Aqua.
In the end, he became so angry that he wanted to massacre the city, but was defeated by Aqua and her group and died.
The bounty on this guy was extremely high, and after he was eliminated, Sato Kazuma's team, as MVP, received a reward of 300 million Eris. However, due to the flood summoned by Aqua, some buildings near the town were washed away and destroyed, causing a disaster loss of up to 340 million Eris.
As a result, Aqua and her group were burdened with huge debts.
"The cadres of the Demon King's army must be very powerful guys. " Sato Kazuma couldn't help but sigh.
Darkness nodded and said, "Since he is a cadre, he is probably an ogre lord or a vampire, or else a great demon or a dragon. No matter which one it is, it is a monster that we will kill instantly if we encounter it."
Sato Kazuma asked curiously, "Why would a monster like that come to our place? We should be in the New City Adventure Town."
Darkness shook her head. She didn't know what was going on.
However, at this moment, Emiya suddenly said, "Let's go and defeat the Demon King's army leaders."
Sato Kazuma, Aqua, Megumin, and Darkness were all stunned.
It took a while for everyone to react.
Sato Kazuma stretched out his hand and wanted to put it on Emiya's forehead, but when he was halfway, Emiya slapped his hand away.
But Sato Kazuma didn't take it seriously. Instead, he said with a worried look on his face: "Are you okay, Emiya-san? Are you sick with a fever?"
“Yes, yes.” What was rare was that Aqua did not argue with Sato Kazuma today. Instead, she nodded in agreement, with the same worried expression on her face.
Emiya said unhappily, "Why do you think I have a fever?"
Sato Kazuma was even more confused. "If you don't have a fever, why are you talking nonsense all of a sudden? We are just novice adventurers, defeating the Demon King's army leaders."
Huihui nodded vigorously. “Although I think my explosion magic is very powerful, it is difficult to deal with the generals of the Demon King’s army.”
Aqua even said, “Emiya, I know you want to defeat the Demon King as soon as possible and let me return to heaven, but unfortunately, we are too weak now. It is impossible to defeat the Demon King’s army.”
Darkness said excitedly, “No, no, no, I agree with Emiya’s actions. As a knight, I cannot turn a blind eye to the Demon King’s Army cadres, so I am willing to follow Emiya to defeat the Demon King’s Army cadres. By then, you can completely abandon me and run away. I will do my best to delay the Demon King’s Army cadres and buy time for you.”
“Although I will be captured by the Demon King’s army and do all sorts of things, don’t worry. As a righteous Crusader, I will never give in.”
At the end of his speech, this guy's face turned red and all kinds of unspeakable things flashed through his mind.
Emiya could tell from her expression that this guy was driving in his head.
After all, he is a masochistic knight, so it is normal to have such thoughts.
"Just shut up." Emiya really wanted to scold her, but he knew that instead of making Darkness shut up, his scolding would make her even more excited.
I just shut my mouth, said nothing, and looked at other people.
Sato Kazuma shook his head repeatedly. "In short, the cadres of the Demon King's army have nothing to do with us. Naturally, there will be high-level adventurers coming to defeat him. Novice adventurers like us should stay away from him."
Megumin and Aqua both agreed with this.
Emiya thought about it and didn't force it. Instead, he said, "Okay, let's end this matter here."
However, he knew very well that as long as he did not interfere with Huihui's actions, the Headless Knight would appear in Axel sooner or later, and after he appeared, it would not be too late for Emiya to kill him.
…
In the next few days, just as the plot developed, due to the arrival of the Headless Horseman, all the monsters around the town of Axel hid.
As a result, only a few difficult tasks remained on the guild's task bar.
This was a little hard for Aqua to accept, because she had basically spent all the money she earned these days. After this guy made money, he liked to buy some high-end sparkling wine and food and never saved money.
If we suddenly stop earning any income now, we might end up starving.
"I've decided. Let's go and defeat the cadres of the Demon King's army now." She changed from the cowardly look she had in the past few days, and flames of anger burned in her eyes.
Destroying someone's source of wealth is like killing their parents. How can one possibly endure such a huge hatred? Absolutely not.
He is just a cadre of the Demon King's army. Just do it.
"Don't act on impulse." Sato Kazuma quickly stopped her. He was unwilling to face an unbeatable opponent because of such a trivial matter.
“Let me go, let me go…” Aqua struggled hard.
However, at this moment, the guild staff suddenly said: "All the cabbages have been sold a few days ago. Now please come to the counter to receive your due rewards."
Aqua’s eyes lit up. She no longer cared about defeating any Demon King’s army officers and quickly ran to the counter to collect her reward.
However……
"Why only 50,000? Do you know how many cabbages I caught? There must be more than ten or twenty!"
"Well, this is a little hard to talk about..."
"What!"
“…Most of what Miss Aqua caught were lettuces…”
“…Why is there lettuce mixed in there?”
"Even if you ask me that!"
Seeing that she was constantly making things difficult for the staff, Emiya stepped forward and patted her on the head, "Okay, stop making things difficult for them. You're not short of money anyway, right?"
“Oh, it seems like we’re going to split the reward equally this time.” Aqua then remembered.
