Chapter 10
The next day, Kazuma and Chris met Lissasfa's group, who also agreed to help the couple train them to help them when their quest.
In a place on the outskirts of the city :
"L- Hi, slept well ? I mean, slept, I don't think you did that but we're not here to talk about your privacy…
K - Rlease don't start with your remarks…
L - I was just teasing you…
C - - to other people- Hello, I guess you are the extras...Uh, I mean Lissasfa's party ?
?1/?2- Hi. To answer your question, we belong to the same group.
L- I see you figured it out, Chris. Girls, I'll let you introduce yourself.
?1- My name is Meia, nice to meet you.
C - Me too. My Name Is Chris and this is Kazuma. - point to another girl- And you ?
?2- My Name Is Shouko. So it is you to whom Eris-sama in person has chosen, you must be spectacular. I'm honored to be able to make you stronger.
C - - embarrassed by flattery- Thank you very much... »
Before starting training, Kazuma and Chris listened to how Lissasfa's group worked and what each other's functions were. In addition, Meia and Shouko explained their strengths and in what they would strengthen Kazuma and Chris.
Meia was 17 years old, and specialized in handling weapons. From that, it was obvious that it was she who was going to drag Kazuma and Chris into this kind of thing. She managed, after several hours of work, to perfect herself in most offensive and even defensive weapons thanks to the manga that have been reported from Japan as the Rising of Shield Hero. In fact, there was a time when the mortality rate among Japanese youth was high, and most Japanese at the time were not teleported to the city of Axel. She was quite explosive, in the sense that she didn't think too much and preferred to act directly. However, his attacks, especially with the Sword are very effective, and on all types of monsters.
Shouko was also 20 years old, like Lissasfa. She was of a gentle and calm nature. She is very kind and is appreciated by many guild members. She specialized in magic and had a lot of techniques for both attacking and defending but within the team she was the defensive mainstay as Meia largely preferred hitting and slicing and Lissasfa usually focused on planning operations. In addition, Shouko used his offensive techniques only in the event of a last resort because he did not like to hurt people too much, except monsters. It was she who would learn to channel their energy and not spend it unnecessarily, as well as increase their magical power for their attacks to be more powerful.
Last night, Kazuma had told Chris that she would not even need to strengthen and increase her mana since she is a goddess but Chris replied that it only works if she put herself in her goddess form, which made Kazuma a little sad but not too much either because at the base, the plan was that both of them would train to strengthen their mana.
"L- Well, I think everything has been said, Now let's get into battle.
C- All of a sudden ?!
L- And why not, it could strengthen your responsiveness ! Us three against you two.
K- It's a joke, you want us to win when we are outnumbered ?
Meia - You'll have to get used to it, you don't have the ascendancy in numbers all the time.
K- Yes, it's true but this is the first time and…
S- Courage Kazuma-san, you can do it. I'm sure you're very strong. I trust you.
K - - is moved by what Shouko says- ...Thanks...- think - This girl is too pure for her own good !
C- Kazuma.
K - Hai Kazuma desu.
C - - whispers in Kazuma's ear- They are right, these traitors are also outnumbered, in my opinion, it's better to prepare right now.
K- Hmm... It's true that I didn't think about it, you're right. And then it will make us stronger.
L- You do low masses, you talk about what ?
K / C- Nothing !
L - Is this about what you're going to do tonight ?
Meia / S - - misunderstanding-
K / C- No, absolutely not ! Stop saying those kinds of things where people are going to think that…
L- - laugh- Okay, Okay, I stop.
K - - get serious again- Okay, we agree, we're going to do this fight.
L- Great.
Meia - - approaches Kazuma and says- I will not hold back, given that you can beat generals from the Demon King's Army.
K - - swallows his saliva and starts to get scared- »
At the mansion, Kazuma's former group decided to get to work seriously for obvious reasons.
"D- You know girls, starting today, I want us to do everything we can so that when Kazuma comes back, he forgives us.
M- Yes, I can no longer live in guilt.
A- I miss Kazuma, so I'll do the right thing.
D- -shocked - I didn't think you'd miss Kazuma, I thought you were with him just for the money.
A- That's what Yunyun said yesterday... You thought so too…
M- Without lying, yes…
D - - agrees - I'm sorry…
A- No, it's okay. But Kazuma is more than that to me, even if I don't show it. And yesterday, Yunyun opened my eyes. After everything I said to him and everything I did to him, he always considered me his best friend and even if we fight, he still protects me anyway. And I, in return, do nothing for him…
M - I... didn't know you cared so much about Kazuma…
A- Yes... So right now, I will try to repay the debt that I have to him, and seriously.
D- Really ? I mean…
A - I know, I wasted a lot of money on drinks, and I intend to do it, so that Kazuma can see that I'm not taking advantage of him and make up.
M - Are you sure you want to do this ? It involves doing dangerous missions…
A- I'll take the risk.
D- -think - I didn't think it would upset Aqua so much. But at least it's a positive for the team- -talk to Aqua and Megumin – In this case, I will try to accurately wield the sword. Kazuma complains that I can't serve to attack, so the least I can do is show that I can make myself useful and that he is proud of me. And you Megumin ?
M - There's only one thing I can do, and even though I don't like it. I'm ready to do it.
D - What then ?
M - - depressed saying this but remains serious- Learn advanced magic.
A / D- EH !
A- But, Megumin, it's…
M- I couldn't live with Kazuma hating me, and then Chris too to suffer for nothing. To balance, I am ready to suffer.
D - Okay, I guess we all have to make an effort. I hope they are enough. »
As for Shouko, as you might have noticed (or not), I'm not going to lie, it's a copy of Shouko Makinohara by Seishun Buta Yarou, so much so that I didn't even change the name. You can consider that it was she who was isekai, even if it is not. Nevertheless, I hope you enjoyed this chapter and have a good day.
