Arc 1 - Chapter 9
(Axel: Adventurer Guild)
After finding out, that Aqua was missing the 250,000 eris from Mitsurugi, she was in a bad mood for a few minutes before being distracted by the food arriving she had ordered.
"Emergency broadcast! Emergency broadcast! Attention to all adventurers, please prepare all your equipment and gather at the town's main gate ready for battle!" The familiar emergency public announcement resonated throughout the guild.
"Again?" Kazuma asked with a confused look on his face, "There are so many of these 'emergency summons' recently. But, I really don't want to attend this one, though." Then, Kazuma rested his face onto the table.
But, fate wouldn't allow this.
"Emergency broadcast! Emergency broadcast! Attention all adventurers, please prepare all your equipment and gather at the town's main gate ready for battle! Especially Satou Kazuma and his companions, please head to the scene as soon as possible!"
"Huh?" Kazuma raises his head from the table, with a dumbfounded on his face, like he never expects this at all.
"What did you guys do?" I look at Darkness, Kazuma, Megumin, and Aqua with a confusion of my own, but curious why they are mentioned in this emergency quest.
"Nothing!" Kazuma shouts, then quickly rush out of the guild, with Megumin and Aqua on his tail.
"Come on, Daisuke." Darkness pulls me from my seat, to be dragged along. "As their comrades, we must help out."
"Eh..." I really don't want to get involved and want to rest at the moment, seeing how I'm mentally tired from all the training I did today and I would be physically tired too if I didn't have the [Fox Mask]. Plus, I honestly don't think I would choose Kazuma, Megumin, or even Aqua as a comrade at all. They have their uses, but I don't think I'll bring them with me to other worlds. Darkness, for sure, can't leave that sexy body behind.
20 minutes later*
(Axel: Main Gate)
As we rushed to the main gate, where the heavily-armored Darkness and I have arrived, with Darkness lagging behind due to her armor, which I wonder if I should make her something that is an armor that is heavy, but weightless. Then thought otherwise, as that would throw Darkness' sense of weight off-balance after she gets used to the weightless heavy armor and equipping her old heavy armor, causing her many problems afterward.
So, the moment Darkness and I arrived, I noticed an army of monsters behind the Demon King's General, Dullahan, and connected the dots on why it showed up again.
Furthermore, this army of monsters is undead knights, where all of them wearing tattered armors, with cracks in their armor and helmets were visible if one looked closely.
"-I was an honorable knight when I was alive. From where I stand, that fox masked man, who I cursed while coming before me bravely to fight me to protect everyone else, something worthy of my respect, but you abandoned him!" The Dullahan finished roaring with rage the moment Darkness and I arrived.
The Dullahan locked eyes with me, where I don't know if I should be flatted that a former knight with honor respect me or not. So, I did what anyone would do in my position.
I draw out and have [Fujin] activated, with my [Fox Mask] on and charge right at the Dullaha, as I use [Control of Weather] to gather the water in the environment and wrap around [Fujin], where water seems like its coming from [Fujin] in everyone else eyes. Using the build-up momentum from my charge and attack with a powerful single concentrated slash.
But, the Dullahan quickly move behind his army of undead knights, where I easily split the front row of undead knights horizontally, then kick the ground with my left foot to push myself back when I used almost all the momentum in that single slash.
"How are you even alive?!" The Dullahan yelled in surprise, but also more surprise to see seven of his undead knight killed instantly in a single swing.
"It's been a week since Daisuke was cursed, but he's still alive. The Dullahan must be really shocked, right, right? That Dullahan must have thought that we would head to the castle to break the curse and was waiting for us in vain, huh? He didn't even know I broke the curse in no time after he left, right? Pfft! This is hilarious! Super funny!" Aqua pointed her finger at the Dullahan and laughed nonstop.
"Hey! You there, blue head! If I get serious, I could kill every single person in this town! Don't think I'll keep letting you off! As an undead, I won't even get tired! You bunch of rookies won't be able to even scratch me!" The Dullahan roared with rage, that he couldn't believe he is laughed at by such a weakling! Before the Dullahan can say anything else, he quickly moved back further before, where a water flow passed by where his head was a moment ago.
"Come on, everyone, we must help Daisuke out!" Darkness shout to everyone, then quickly charge right at the army of undead knights without caring for her safety.
"[Turn Undead]!" Aqua shouted her [Spell], where a bright, white light emerged from her stretched hand and the gentle light closed in on the Dullahan, who seem to not put this before his eyes.
"You think a Demon King's General wouldn't be prepared to fight Priests?! Laughable! Including myself, all the undead knights in this group have received the protection of the Demon King! We have very high resistance against [Holy Spells]-AHHHHH!" The Dullahan explained to everyone, mostly towards Aqua, but before he could even finish his explanation, he got hit by the [Turn Undead] and caused extreme painful damage.
Black smoke started emerging from the Dullahan, but he was still confident, even when he smoking all over. He was shaking and couldn't even stand properly, but the Dullahan continue to put up a strong facade.
"Wait for me to finish! I am Beldia-"
But, was cut off when someone appears behind him, then multiple holes appear all over the Dullahan, causing him to pause in shock, even the adventurers that tagged along with Darkness to fight the undead knights paused as well, including the undead knights, to see their leader filled with holes.
I smirk, that the assassination style for [Chariot Requiem] is working great. Now, to finish the Dullahan off, as I stomp on a nearby undead knight's head and leap into the air while falling towards the Dullahan, then spins in the air while performing a water flowing sword attack in a circular motion. Creating a wheel made out of water, slicing the Dullahan in half while the water continues to flow in a wheel shape current for a few seconds while expanding until the water completely disappears before everyone's eyes.
I didn't stop there as the moment I land, I spin multiple times before releasing another water flowing sword attack horizontal this time while moving during the spinning motion until I cut my way out of the army of undead knights.
"He defeated the Dullahan! Everyone, attack!"
Someone yelled, then everyone begins rushing towards the leaderless army of undead knights as it is much easier to take on an army of monsters without anyone leading them.
An hour later*
(Axel: Adventurer Guild)
After everyone took care of the remaining undead knights; people have started paying more attention to me. As I have single-handed, killed the Dullahan alone, even though Aqua did help out once by casting [Turn Undead] on it before I can land the first hit. Too bad, everyone ignored this little fact and only paid attention to how I defeated the Dullahan when he still next to his army of undead knights in close range instead of attacking in long-distance than charging straight into the Dullahan's army.
But, this was temporary forgotten due to the fact, that the shitty goddess got a bit too happy when someone discovered the weakness of the undead knights being water, which was one of the reasons I was able to kill the Dullahan at the time, and had created a sudden flood to wipe out all the undead knights, washing over everyone on the scene. Including myself, much to my frustration at the time, because I almost lost [Fujin] while being dragged along by the flood like everyone else.
Luckily, the flood wasn't too huge or the town would have been destroyed.
However, I forgot one important thing. I could have stopped the flood right away by absorbing it into an empty [Shard], but forgot about it at the time.
Good thing I worked on [Control of Weather] as I use it to dry myself up instantly, much to the envy of some people nearby seeing this.
After checking on my [Adventurer's Card]; I have leveled up five times, putting me at level 46 and with 14 [Skill Points]. But, still not enough to get [Teleportation Magic], which cost the same [Control of Weather], meaning a price of 60 [Skill Points] and I'm only 46 short from getting it.
"Come on, Darkness. I think we should head home." I stretch my muscle, thinking about switching [Fujin] for something else. As it's not very suited with [Control of Weather] and it was purely on luck that the [Black Trigger] didn't blow up on me at this point from forcibly making it do something that beyond what its feature can do.
"Coming!" Darkness replied with happiness, completely ignoring the people nearby and follow me back home, where we will have some alone time. Something both of us are excited for.
35 minutes later*
(Axel: Home)
"Hm. You've improved a lot compared to the first day." I said to Darkness, as she eagerly sucks on my dick, doing her best to make me climax, which wasn't that far off as Darkness has gotten very good in blowjob. Then again, this is a given with the amount of sex we had at this point and the sexual activities I put Darkness through to satisfy her fetish urge.
I watch Darkness continue doing a fine job, then place a hand on top of her head, stopping her for a moment.
Darkness looks at me with confusion, but that was mostly buried under her lust.
"I don't feel like cumming inside your mouth tonight and since you been a good girl lately. I think it's time for your reward." I smile down at Darkness, who moves her tongue as my dick is still inside her mouth, showing that she is happy to please me.
With slurping noise, then a pop as Darkness releases my dick and quickly straddle me and it's a good thing this time we're having sex on the couch instead of the single-seat armchair. It would have been a bit cramp and make it a bit difficult when Darkness tries to do the cowgirl position.
"So, Darkness, how is it compared to having sex on this couch than the armchair and the bed?" I ask Darkness, who just inserted my dick inside her pussy and begin moving her hip with a lewd smile on her face.
"The armchair... was a little cramp, but tha-t didn't stop me." Darkness whisper to me as her mind focus more on the feeling of pleasure than anything else. "Be-d is fiNE!" Darkness yelped when I grab her butt, to thrust into her pussy rapidly as I was close to cumming. Then, a few seconds later, one last thrust, I release it inside Darkness, not worry about getting her pregnant. After all, each time we have sex, I made sure Darkness takes one of the [Magical Pills] I made that prevent her from being pregnant. Similar to birth control back on Earth, but I have no idea if it's better or the same as Earth's. Either way, I have faith in my [Omnifabrication] to make the [Magical Pill] work.
Also, I made a large amount, knowing how Darkness and I would go at it more than within a month to the point it wouldn't be a surprise if Darkness got pregnant the amount time I came inside her.
"Well, since I don't feel like moving to the bed tonight. How about we just spent the night sleeping on the couch afterward?" I didn't feel like waiting for the cum inside Darkness to leak out first and resume thrusting more.
"W-Wait! I just came! Let m-e res-t!" Darkness cried out, but the look on her face said otherwise.
The next day*
(Axel: Adventurer Guild)
The day after defeating the Dullahan; I have decided to work on modifying the [Fujin] or think about making a new sword for me to use. After all, the [Black Trigger] wasn't built like the original version. But, my version, where I have no idea if it is the same or weaker than the original version. Anyway, I may have to abandon the [Fujin] and make a new sword, to be used together with [Control of Weather] unless I could think of a way to make [Fujin]'s main feature stay intact and not disappear.
Too bad, I couldn't modify what has been made. Something I learned today, where I thought with [Omnifabrication] allows me to modify things that have already been finished product. So another flaw to the [Omnifabrication].
But, this little flaw was easily solved as I place a 'condition' when using the [Omnifabrication], where I would dismantle the [Fujin] for its parts and create a modified version of [Fujin] for me to channel [Control of Weather] through it and increase its sharpness further. Though, the cost of powering the modified version [Fujin] would be more compared to before. A price to pay for a better weapon.
Once this is done, I head over to the adventurer's guild to take a quest to field test the new improved [Fujin].
But, didn't think there would be a big party and everyone gets to claim a reward for defeating the Demon King's General, which I did, obtaining 300 million eris. I made sure no one nearby heard about this. Especially that shitty goddess.
Other than this, everyone is drinking and getting drunk like no tomorrow, where most couldn't even walk steadily.
After getting my reward, I hang out with Darkness and Megumin, with the latter trying to convince Darkness that she should be allowed to drink. Good thing Darkness quietly informed me why and I made sure no one gives the little girl a drink either. Because I do not want a drunk explosive girl, who can literally destroy the entire town easily. Being drunk makes it even worse as Megumin won't be in the right mind and may end up casting the [Explosion Magic] without a care for the consequence.
"Excuse me, Satou Kazuma, correct?" One of the counter ladies came over with an awkward expression while looking very nervous.
"Yes, I'm Kazuma." Kazuma replied, wondering if he getting his reward now.
The counter lady showed an apologetic face and handed Kazuma a paper.
I lean over to glance at the paper, wondering if this is a check, because I haven't seen such a thing in this world yet, but who knows, maybe they do. Plus, it has full of zeroes. However, I got the feeling it wasn't.
Looking up, where I see a drunken shitty goddess coming over and peeked at the paper in Kazuma's hands.
The counter lady looks very sorry before speaking in a false calm tone of voice, "Um, because of Kazuma's party, which to say, Aqua's flood the buildings around the town was washed away and damaged was on the same level as a catastrophic disaster. But, taking into consideration the merit of defeating an army of undead, that surely would have caused many deaths. The town won't ask for full compensation, just a part of it... That's how it is..." After making this announcement, the counter lady slowly averted her gaze and left the table in a hurry.
Megumin glances at the paper in Kazuma and fled straight away.
Aqua would have fled too if she wasn't so close to Kazuma, who immediately grabbed the back collar of Aqua who was about to follow Megumin's example.
Darkness looked at the compensation bill and place a hand on Kazuma's shoulder, "The compensation is 340 million... Kazuma, let's take on quests with stronger enemies to earn lots of money." Darkness gives Kazuma a bright smile, that came from the bottom of her heart.
"You know when I continue to stay solo and not join a party. It's times like this, I'm right for doing so." I give my own opinion about this whole thing, causing Kazuma to grit his teeth and take his frustration on the one who caused this debt to appear.
So Kazuma begins shaking Aqua, who was begging for Kazuma to stop shaking her or she will end up throwing up.
"You did this to us! Now, we're in huge debt!" Kazuma yells at Aqua, where it looks like Kazuma is close to doing something everyone would regret.
"St-St-Stop! I'm gon-na pu-ke!" Aqua cried out, where Kazuma didn't seem to care at all.
"I dare you to puke!" Kazuma continues to shake Aqua still, then quickly let go and move out of the way when Aqua actually did puke from all the shaking.
"You should calm down, Kazuma. We can still do our best by just doing as many as quests we can handle. It shouldn't take too long if we put all our efforts into it." Darkness tried to calm Kazuma down, but at the same time, she thought about how much time would this take as she would like to be with her lover.
"Hey, senpai!" Kazuma shout to me, "Is it possible if I make Aqua provide her service to you for 340 million eris?" His words can be misunderstood, which caused almost all the female adventurers to glare at Kazuma. Realizing this, "I mean by service, where you hired her for a job or something. That's unrelated anything to sexual tasks."
"Let me do quick mental math. If I paid her 1,000 eris per [Shard] and you need 340 million eris. Then, she will have to repeatedly cast [Spells] three hundred forty thousand times. And the time she can cast a [Spell] in a row without tiring out is five hours if it's below [Sacred Spells] level. Going up by the numbers of [Spells] Aqua can cast in that five hours is a thousand." I thought out loud, causing everyone to look at Aqua in a new light.
Even Kazuma looks surprised at how many times she could cast her [Spells] before giving Aqua a blank look, thinking that it must be low-tier [Spells] or party tricks. But, knowing his senpai, it's mainly the one that important, like [Create Water].
What everyone doesn't know is that I force Aqua to take those pills that recover [Mana] and one of the reasons why I'm paying her only 1,000 eris. Since I'm giving away those pills for free of charge, not that Aqua knew the benefit of these [Magical Pills].
"But, the thing is, I'm not in the need of her service right now." I continue off, causing Kazuma to look like all hope is lost, "But, I won't mind lending 300 million eris. Though, you will have to pay me back later on. Maybe I won't have to pay Aqua whenever I need her service." I decide to do a good deed. After all, I did get a second life and got the [Omnifabrication] as well.
"Anyway, we can get 40 million eris as well?" Kazuma asks with a hint of hope, that they can remove this debt right away; well, just change one debt owner to another, but Kazuma knew his senpai won't push this debt over his head too much, if anything, he can push it over to Aqua. Since she the main culprit for this whole thing.
"Not really. You should be glad I'm paying off most of your debt." I said in a firm tone of voice while thinking about what should I do with all the money I have I gathered in a month, because 300 million isn't much right now. Though, I do wonder why I want to only pay 300 million eris instead of the full amount. Then, remember I did this before in the past and by taking the debt for myself. I can manipulate the person in debt easily and allow me to have my fun with them. Also, I made sure not to buy the entire debt since if I do, then people in debt would ignore the amount they owe me and having the original people, who have a small amount of debt held would still come to them in person to get the money for the remaining leftover debt.
Sadly, most cases won't go the way I wanted. But, I'm alright with this as I treat this as a gamble. If I win, then I have control over the person and make them do things for me. If I lose, the person just has to pay less money and ignore me before ending up dead a year later, after I give them one last warning of a deadline.
"Great..." Kazuma really didn't want to work for that extra 40 million eris and was planning to slowly repay his senpai's money. Maybe a few years if he manages to score a large amount of money during those years, then if he remembers, then he will repay back his senpai's 40 million eris. The 300 million eris, he will leave that to Aqua.
"Wait, I don't want to work for free!" Aqua cried out once realizing, that she been literally sold off by her party leader for 300 million eris. "Kazuma! Don't do this to me!" Aqua latches onto Kazuma's legs, with teary eyes as she begins to beg for mercy.
"Quiet you! You're the main cause of this whole thing! At least work off that 300 million eris! I still have to work for that last 40 million and even with all the money, I have saved up to now. I still have over 30 million eris to go! All my hard earn money, gone because of you!" Kazuma scolds Aqua for even thinking about escaping her debt.
"I wonder I could sell body parts of a goddess. Would they worth much?" I mumble to myself, causing Aqua to cry out even louder and now in fear.
"Please! Don't leave me with him! He suddenly said something very scary, just now!" Aqua shout at Kazuma, who feel a bit disturbed as well and wonder if his senpai were one of those people who collect debt one way or another. If so, then maybe he should really pick up the pace on gathering that 40 million eris and pay off his share of the debt to the guild. At least the 300 million eris is covered by Aqua. Better her than him is what Kazuma thought.
"Oh, calm down. It's not like people buy organs around here." I roll my eyes at Aqua, for being so dramatic.
"Oh yeah." Aqua calmed down, but that didn't last long.
"He didn't say he wouldn't do it, though. So, you better watch out if senpai found someone who is willing to pay large amounts for body parts, especially from a goddess." Kazuma said to Aqua, who begins shaking him in fear, causing him to feel a bit regret for saying these words.
"KAZUMA!" Aqua cried out in horror, "I don't want to lose any body parts!"
"Are you really going to sell Aqua's body parts?" Darkness asks me with a hint of worry and concern.
"Nah." I wasn't gonna go through all the trouble of searching for the right shady people and the black market of this world. Furthermore, even if I had manage to find someone, there still the part where I have to convince others that Aqua is an actual goddess, who just can't gain access to her full [Divine Power]. Let alone people want body parts from the goddess and may end up trying to kill me instead as those people end up being those cult members that worship Aqua.
"Oh, that's a relief." Darkness lets out a breath she was holding in. "Anyway, since the day still not close to being over. How about we do some quests?"
"Please tell me, you'll join, senpai?" Kazuma looks at me, eyes filled with hope. After all, if someone can easily give away 300 million eris and been soloing the entire time. Must be very strong and wouldn't be such a burden like his current party members.
"I don't know." I rub my chin, "I don't see many points of me having to tag along. In fact, wouldn't this just making me work to help pay off the debt that's not even mine in the first place and there the 300 million eris Aqua owe me. Oh, yeah, that reminds me. Excuse me a second." I said to Kazuma, then got up from the table and head over to the counter lady.
A few minutes later*
"Kay, back. And now, Aqua owes me 300 million eris for real." I said to everyone, causing Aqua to whine in despair, "The 40 million eris you'll have to work on yourself. Also, I'm not tagging along. I still got some training to do." I've already decided not to help Kazuma out with that last 40 million eris debt. When I need to get Aqua to pay me that 300 million eris instead. "Anyway, I'll be expecting you to be ready when I need your service. Escape and you will be punished." I stare at Aqua coldly, causing her to shiver from the way I'm looking at her, then smile, "I do hope you actual escape from me. I'll enjoy the hunt."
"I'm afraid, Kazuma." Aqua whimper to Kazuna, who was also getting scared of the way his senpai's eyes being so cold.
"You and me both, but unlike you, I'm trying my best not to get on his bad side." Kazuma didn't care if his words are harsh, plus, there those favors he owed his senpai. Three if he remembers correctly and he has no idea what his senpai want from him. In a way, he has it worse than Aqua, since, unlike her, the three favors he owes could be anything while Aqua's debt is only 300 million eris and only require times to repay it all.
"Well, are we going to do any quests today? Because if not, I got stuff to do." Megumin said to Kazuma as she came back when she noticed no one was trying to use her to pay for the debt.
"Let's go check out what quests are available. Later, senpai." Kazuma said to me, then quickly walk away, leaving Aqua and Darkness behind with me.
I just continue smiling at Aqua, who shiver once more and quickly ran after the other two.
"Wait for me!" Aqua yelled, not wanting to stick around someone who clearly won't hesitate to chop her into pieces to be sold off if he finds the right buyers.
"Are you sure, you don't want to tag along? I would be happy if you would be there." Darkness said to me.
"Yeah, I don't think I will until the debt is paid off. Well, at least for Kazuma's debt of 40 million. Aqua, I will get her to repay me back through her [Sacred Spells] or some other way." I'm really hoping Aqua would try to escape from me. Would give me a few reasons to do things to her in the name of punishment. "Well, I'm going to head off. Good luck, Darkness." I didn't give Darkness a kiss or anything couple related. As I got up from my seat and left without looking back.
Not caring the look I'm getting from Darkness, who was hoping for a goodbye kiss.
