Chapter 13: This… isn't the type of humiliation I like…

Kazuma's POV

She's been saying "explosion" over and over again for the past half hour while blushing and panting. I haven't had the guts to check her pants, but my legs do feel a little wet. Dammit, she's still grinding against my leg!

"That's enough, Megumin! Wake up!"

"Huh?"

"What's with that stupid confused look?! You know exactly what you were doing!"

"Wha- huh?!"

Oh, now you blush and look away. Ok.

"K-Kazuma! Can you look away? I'm going to get myself… sorted out."

"Finally. You know, my leg was getting wet-"

"Shut up! Just… don't look, ok?"

Whatever. I'll just go back to sleep now.

"Kazuma! I'm going to kill you!"

She's only wearing underwear?!

"Wha- what are you talking abou- woah, woah, woah! Back up a sec, didn't you just cum?"

"Shut up! I'm talking about this!"

Oh. Right.

"The sacred stone? Really?! That's the best you could come up with?!"

"Hey, I was just finding a way to get back at you and you were going to wake up. I figured that this fit."

"...I suppose I kind of deserved it… Are you going to help me get this off or not?"

"I don't know, maybe put on some clothes? Not that I'm complaining."

She is only wearing underwear.

"Y-yeah. I'll do that."

I was kinda hoping that she wouldn't. Oh well. At least I saw her in her underwear.

"Kazuma? Are you going to get this off, or what?"

"What? Of course, I'm gonna get off- I mean… You left it on me, right? Why should I help you?"

"Come on, Kazuma~"

Crap! Of course, she had to start rubbing on me!

"Kazuma~ It won't hurt you that much to help me out here! Please~"

"No! And stop trying to seduce me! Get Aqua to take it off or something!"

"Fine! I'll tell her all about how you put your hands under my robe and began making markings on my ski-"

"Goddammit! Fine, I'll help you! Jeez…"

Oh, I'll help her alright. For about half an hour, that is.

"I'll head off to Wiz's shop. I'll need some marker remover."

"Alright… Say, did you make breakfast?"

"Nope. You woke me up when you-"

"Alright, alright, I get it! How about this, I make a nice breakfast as a thank you for not mentioning this… Incident to anyone else and help me get this writing off, ok?"

Well crap. I was going to use illusion magic to make it look like she'd gotten it removed, only for it to come back in half an hour. Whatever, I guess there's always next time. Plus, there's plenty I can do with illusion magic!

"Ok. See you in a bit!"

…Her smile should be illegal.

"S-see ya, Megumin."

"Easy-ma!"

Slammed door: check. Off to get some new skills.

Megumin's POV

Alright, time to make the best meal I ca-

"Megumin? What are you doing up this early?"

"It's 8 o'clock! That's not too early."

"It's just… I thought that you'd sleep in a bit with Kazuma."

"What are you suggesting about us?!"

"Nothing! Nothing at all… I was just…"

What's behind her back?

"Darkness… What are you hiding from me?"

"I… Uh…"

"Darkness blacker than black, darker than-"

"Fine! I was trying to give Kazuma his present!"

"And what was the present…?"

Maybe shining my eyes while holding a dagger to her throat is a bit extreme, but seriously, who can blame me?

"Megumin? You're scaring me… Ah! Here! Here it is!"

"A whip?! Seriously? Didn't you hear what he said?"

"Yes, but-"

"No buts! I swear, if you don't trade that in for something normal, I will personally make sure that no one calls you anything but Lalatina Dustiness Ford."

"Ugh, fine! I did get him a sword as well in case he didn't like this… It's like his… chunchunmaru, but longer. It also shrinks so that he won't knock anything over with it."

"That's pretty thoughtful of you. Anyways, I'm going to be cooking some toad meat jerky and egg. You can make some yourself if you want any breakfast."

"If you're cooking, why don't you just make some extra for-"

"Darkness. You can make some yourself, can't you?"

"What, you think that you can threaten me? W-wow… You're just as rough as Kazuma-"

"Ok, Lalatina. I guess-"

"I'll make my own! Are you happy?"

"Yes. I'm cooking for my boyfriend and one of my best friends! How could I not be happy?"

"You don't have to rub it in…"

"Rub what in? That I'm dating-"

"Shut up!"

"Geez, would you give it a rest? You can literally have almost any other guy besides, you know, MY BOYFRIEND."

"That's the problem! I don't want any other guy! No one can treat me as rough… as cruel as him while still caring-"

"You heard him! Just stop it already! He's not interested in you, so drop it."

"I can't! You can't just stop something like this!"

"I gave you closure! Remember, none of this would've happened if I hadn't given you the go ahead, AND YOU HADN'T TRIED TO RAPE HIM!"

"H-hey! He was going along with it-"

"That doesn't matter! You forced yourself on him! Don't act like it was his fault!"

"Megumin? A-are you sure that you want to put your knife there? If you come any closer, I'll-"

"Shut UP already! And stop being such a freak! God, sometimes, I wish that you'd never joined our party!"

Maybe I went a little too far.

"I-I'm sorry Darkness. I went a little bit too far."

"This… isn't the type of humiliation I like…"

"I'm sorry. Truth is, I was really insecure about that. I still kinda wonder if Kazuma would've been better off if, say, Yunyun joined up with him instead of me. Still, he's helped me a lot with that."

"He really is a walking paradox."

"Yeah- Hold up a second! Stop talking him up!"

"What? Do you not agree?"

"Yeah, but I don't want to hear you saying it!"

"You really are a spoiled child!"

"D-Darkness! Stop choking me! Seriously, Kazuma told you to back off, so back off!"

"Would you guys keep it down? You know, they say a goddess needs at least 12 hours of sleep!"

"Shut up!" X2
