Chapter 1

Well he did it, Kazuma defeated the Devil King against all possible odds, and now it was time for Kazuma to be given what was rightfully his.

"Congratulations Kazuma, you succeeded in defeating the demon Lord" said Eris proudly as Megumin and Darkness stood beside him and cheering for his most recent triumphs.

"That's right, that means your truly finally regained her status as a proud and noble goddess once more" Aqua said proudly as she took her spot back in her throne chair which did just appear once again.

"Huh, so she was telling the truth" said Megumin, "Honestly I thought she was more insane than you Megumin, no offense mind you" commented Darkness, "None taken honestly".

"You 2 are just as mean as Kazuma" cried Aqua as she felt betrayed by the response of her other 2 teammates who were never mean to her.

"Yeah, frankly no one would believe that given how we all saw how bad you are at your worst, in fact I'm surprised that you're even allowed to come back as a goddess if I'm being honest" said Kazuma not caring he's hurting Aqua's feelings.

"Stupid NEET, I'll show you what are the consequences for insulting as noble and beautiful as a goddess such as me, especially when you're in her domain" said Aqua as she raised a fist that was shaking with rage and was glowing a new blue aura.

"Ooh forgive me for not shaking in my boots, now if you don't mind I think I'm supposed to be given my reward at this point now, so cough it up already" said Kazuma as he sneered at her.

"Kazuma is right, he has proven himself worthy and deserves his wish after all the hardships he had gone through" said Eris nervously trying to defuse the situation peacefully.

"Thank you, a goddess who cares and acknowledges me for all my efforts and the struggles I faced" said Kazuma smugly as he chose to ignore Aqua for the remainder of his visit.

"So Kazuma, what can I-that is we as goddess do in granting your wish" asked Eris as honestly she'd be lying if she said she wasn't nervous given he could've wished for anything, like say a one night stand with all the woman he had the hots for, or worse being able to teleport himself and turn invisible at the same time to say I don't know any to all woman's lingerie store where he could cop a feel and then some.

"Alright, here it is, I'd like to return back home with all the skills I have acquired" said Kazuma as this completely caught everyone by surprise.

"Come again" asked Aqua, "Look going through all that hell of living in a world where there was no such thing as stuff like minimum wage, proper hospitals with insurance policies, corrupted officials that could get away with anything without being able to hide it publicly, and this is not mention some of the more bitching things in life like electricity, AC, and wifi for Christ sakes" ranted Kazuma.

"Hey, watch it now, you're in the presence of 2 goddesses you NEET" Aqua said threateningly as Eris nodded along.

"Look bottom line, while my life did took a turn for the worst, be it how my child hood friend betrayed me and my family but disowned me, it wasn't as bad as doing life threatening jobs on a daily and getting killed once every 3 months" said Kazuma as he surprisingly took this wish and moment to reflect and grow.

"So please, just send back home to the world I belong and came from, hell doesn't have to be with my family or even in Japan, so long it's a first world country that isn't under autocratic rule, I can make it using the skills I have to start a successful business, rob casinos blind, and if push comes to shove work as hired hit and professional thief" said Japan.

"Well it's funny how you should mention about your world" said Eris nervously, "Oh my god please tell me it's not a nuclear wasteland" said Kazuma worriedly.

"Oh no, it's nothing like that, far from it actually, it's just that shortly after you died, your parents collected the life insurance money, and they along with your brother decided to take a vacation on a family cruise to Hawaii" said Eris, "Of course they did, those fricken assholes" said Kazuma with venom.

"Now hold on, I think it be appropriate to inform you that your family had all died out in sea do to misunderstanding and this of course what caused the recent radical change in the world you once know" said Eris.

What she or no one, but Aqua, expected was Kazuma to be laughing at the death of his family, "Hahahahahaha, suck it mom and dad, and that especially goes to that little shit smart mouth of my little brother, guess who got the last laugh and a chance to return and restore and continue the Satou family name, but me bitches" laughed Kazuma in the most smuggest villainous manner anyone has ever seen.

"Kazuma I understand you didn't have a perfect relationship with your family, but aren't you're reacting a little to… mean about their sudden death" asked Eris.

"Listen these were the same apathetic jerks who never cared to understand or comfort me, and also laughed at my death bed, so I say my reaction is justified at this point" Kazuma said in his serious demeanor.

"Anyways, there was a misunderstanding leading to their deaths because the world change, could you please explain that" asked Kazuma.

"Well during the time you were gone, it seems that the world had been invaded by the discovery of monster girls" said Eris, "Come again now" asked Kazuma.

"It be better if I showed you" said Eris as she opened a window to show Kazuma and company of what she was talking about, and was it bodacious and gratuitous in all senses to Kazuma's taste of hot woman.

Granted, he was sort of half expecting that Eris was implying something on the lines of new breed of beings that they were either on a winning war streak to even enslaved pets.

But this, this was more than better on so many levels for Kazuma as he was more than certain he's seen at least 10 titty flashes before Eris put away.

"So you see, your world isn't entirely the same, but if you're still interested in going back" said Eris, "Question, I don't have to worry about getting rape now do I once I return home" asked Kazuma as he was still traumatized after that whole female orc experience.

"Well only if you visit their homelands and it usually depends on their race, but otherwise your chances of rape are as likely to happen like anyone else" admitted Eris.

Thinking about it for a good minute, and probably against his better judgment and safety, Kazuma decided to say screw it and just go with it.

"You know what, I'll take my chances so long as I get to live with a roof over my head once more that also provides AC and wifi" said Kazuma as that was him subtly hinting something to be additionally accommodating.

"Very well Kazuma, if that is your wish, I shall happily oblige and grant it, just let me do some other things first before we proceed" said Eris.

"Quit trying to hog the spot light you little twerp, and let's send the NEET back home already" said Aqua as she began to do the incantation in sending Kazuma back to Japan.

"Lady Aqua wait" pleaded Eris, but it was too late as Kazuma was levitated and was finally going to be sent back to Japan without giving him or anyone a chance to say goodbye.

Japan 20XX

Home sweet home, as Kazuma was literally living inside of his brand new house, that came with every sort of accommodation, electrical lighting, TV with game consoles and systems, before he continued to explore the whole house.

It was a 5 bedroom house, including a master bedroom with its own shower and toilet, along with big ass monitor screens with high tech gaming rigs, various figurines and other stuff that Kazuma may or may not have collected that suited his taste just perfectly.

Kitchen was currently full of fresh food within its expiration date, along with enough clean dishes for the week.

Yup, Kazuma was absolutely loving his wish and his new life and instead of going straight into NEET mode for a week to recover for all the hell and misfortune he's been through, he was ready to explore how much his world changed and if possible find a girl who he can make a good first impression and maybe bring him back home to Casa Kazuma, occupancy only 1.

That is until he heard a noise coming from one of the bathrooms in the hall way.

"Who the hell is there" demanded Kazuma as he was more than capable on taking on any thief at this point as he checked himself and was glad he was able to do the abilities like freeze, tinder, and such.

Opening the door slowly, Kazuma nearly attacked the person on sight as it was revealed to be none other than Aqua who looked like she was about to cry any minute.

"This is so unfair" sniffled Aqua, "Aqua, what the hell are you doing here" squeaked Kazuma's voice before Aqua turned to face Kazuma, where she proceeded to throw herself and cry.

"Waaaaaaaaah, Kazuma why does this keep happening to me" cried Aqua, "You're tell me" said Kazuma as he felt the same sentiment as he could feel his shirt being covered in snot and tears.

"Can you calm down and tell me what the hell is happening" said Kazuma as he pushed Aqua off him, "This is all that little twerp Eris' fault" pouted Aqua as Kazuma was confused since she kinda did kinda didn't answer his question, but more on the latter.

"Mind elaborating how this is Eris' fault" asked Kazuma, "She said she was trying to undo the binding contract that you and I had since I was still technically your property when I sent you here" blubbered Aqua for a minute before putting on a face of sudden realizing before a glare.

"And she said that the only reason this had happened was because you said you wanted to come back here with everything you had previously acquired, so this is your fault stupid NEET" said Aqua as she began to furiously shake Kazuma, before he wrestled her and pulled her cheeks into submission.

"Calm down, I never said that, I said with only the skills I acquired, not the worthless goddess of debt" said Kazuma before releasing Aqua, "Don't you remember, how before we were sent off to fight the demon lord, I gave you a choice of either legendary skill or weapon, but instead you chose me, those rules still apply as if you had taken the first 2 to begin with, when you said you wanted to be send here with the skills you acquired" said Aqua as she massaged her cheeks.

Just hearing that got Kazuma to pale and would really hate, but won't admit this was his fault and couldn't blame anyone, except for the goddess who acted without thinking to begin with once again.

"I wouldn't have been in this damn mess if not for you acting without thinking once again, but no, you just had to assert you dominance over someone as kind and more gracious than Eris, who was trying to prevent this in the first place you stupid goddess" yelled Kazuma.

"Now look here" began Aqua, "And you know what's probably the worst part, it's that there's probably no way for you to return back home this time, but unlike before, I don't really need you in my life so you can just go out and rough it in the damn street for all I care" ranted Kazuma as he turned Aqua back into a blubbering sack of tears.

"No Kazuma, please don't abandoned me, what if I can't go back, I can't make it on my own here" begged Aqua as she threw herself once again and wrapped herself onto Kazuma's lower half.

"Not my problem this time, since you'll only get in the way of my own personal paradise" said Kazuma as he tried to push her off him, before he heard a knock at his front door.

"Wonder who that can be" asked Aqua out loud, "Make yourself useful and hide yourself back in the bathroom, for all I know it can be a real hot single girl who's DTF" said Kazuma as he began to push Aqua into the bathroom once again, before answering the door.

As if the gods and the cosmos didn't hate him enough and continued his punishment, low and behold standing outside his door was none other than Megumin and Darkness.

"Kazuma" Megumin and Darkness said happily before Kazuma put on his 'nope' face and slammed the door shut.

"What the hell did I do to be punished to this day!" screamed Kazuma out loud, before Megumin and Darkness continued to knock on his door.

"Hey Kazuma, open up, you're being rude" said Megumin on the other side, "Kazuma, don't think I won't break down this door" warned Darkness.

"Was that Megumin and Darkness I heard just now" asked Aqua as she came out the bathroom, "Eris, please here my pleas for help, and get rid of these woman from my life" cried Kazuma to the sky.

After calming down and letting in Darkness and Megumin in, everyone was all but excited to be reunited, except Kazuma, who just seems to get the short end of the stick even after claiming what was rightfully his.

"Hey Kazuma, you've been quiet is everything alright" asked Megumin, "No, not everything is alright, what I like to know is why the hell are both of you here" asked Kazuma.

"Well, you left before we could all properly say goodbye, so I humbly requested that the goddess Eris to allow us to see you in person once more" explained Darkness.

"Alright, let's get this goodbye over with, so you can both leave, and while you're at it, can you ask her to find a way to take Aqua off my hands, or at least send her far away from here, preferably somewhere in Greece" said Kazuma, "So mean" cried Aqua.

"Well here's the thing, Lady Eris said that until she can find a way to bring Aqua back, we'll all be stuck here until that day arrive" explained Darkness.

"Did she say how long" asked Kazuma as he was hoping things can be resolve in the next hour or less even, "She said it'll take some time, but until then said to enjoy our time here together once more" said Megumin with a smile.

"Are you freaking kidding me" said Kazuma in disbelief as this was not the reaction the girls were expecting.

"Kazuma, what's wrong" asked Darkness, "What's wrong is that I'm finally home ready to start my life all over again and on the right foot with no one, but myself being the one to stop me, instead the 3 least favorable people I wanted to be with decided on a whim to crash and burn my moment of trying to fit in and live the good life" said Kazuma.

"Kazuma, you're going to far now" said Darkness as hers along with everyone else's feelings were hurt, "Oh, I am far from crossing that line" said Kazuma.

"Seriously Kazuma, you get to live with 3 single girls that have their own various charm and you're complaining" said Aqua, "Yeah I'm complaining considering their contents are fricken crap" said Kazuma as he began to sit up.

"Where are you going" asked Megumin, "I'm off to find myself a nice single girl to bring home and when I get back, I expect you girls to be out of here and out of sight" said Kazuma.

"Excuse you Kazuma, but where are we suppose to go" said Aqua once more, "Not my problem, what is my problem is me having 3 single girls living under the same roof as me, which will leave questionable if not negative impression to any girl I bring home, so do me a favor and hit the road" said Kazuma bluntly as he began to walk outside to brood and think about what he was gonna do and how to avoid this trio of misfits.

It wasn't far until he stepped outside past the entrance of his house that someone bumped and collided into him.

"Ow" groaned Kazuma as he was ready to just give up and die and requests that he'd be reborn all together.

"Sorry about that, are you alright" said the voice of a woman as Kazuma looked up to see a hot lamia standing over him.

"No um, it was my bad I should've payed better attention" said Kazuma as he began to get back up on his feet where he fully examined the hottie before him.

Her lower half and tail was copper scales with a pinkish cream underbelly, long red hair and golden eyes, and had on 'D' shaped hairclips, wearing denim skirt and a yellow long sleeved with the lower half twisted up to her cleavage which was bodacious and perfect for Kazuma.

"Are you alright" asked the Lamia as Kazuma began to blush a little, "I'm sorry, but you're so… hot, please don't find me creepy for admitting that out loud" said Kazuma.

"Well I wouldn't call it being creeped out, but definitely unexpected, but hey you were complimenting me which I find to be welcoming" said the Lamia, which was bringing much joy and hope to Kazuma for being a virgin still.

"Oh sorry for never introducing myself, but my name is Miia" greeted the Lamia, "Name's Kazuma" greeted Kazuma, "Say Kazuma, you don't happen to live here now do you".

"Yeah, just moved in here, by myself for the record" said Kazuma as he wanted to established that alibi incase the girls from his team never left and needed to call the cops and claim he's a victim of a home invasion.

"Oh that's perfect, I guess that makes us neighbors" said Miia with a smile as this got Kazuma to believe that the gods finally rewarding him at long last after their recent fumble.

"Anyways, I must be on my way, I got some dinner shopping to do" said Miia, "Hey if you want I can keep you company" offered Kazuma, "Well aren't you just the gentlemen".

So far so good, as Kazuma was playing it smooth and if continued to play his cards right, he could even have sex before the night ends and he probably doesn't have to bring her home to his place just to be safe.

"Well I won't say no, so shall we" said Miia with a smile, "For you Miia, anything" said Kazuma chivalrously.

Later

After walking into town and helping Miia do grocery shopping, which was hella by the way, it also gave Kazuma a chance to see how much the world change and possibly looking for a job that wasn't just construction off the bat.

His world was now inhabited by both monster girls and boys, though the latter of which served to be in a small minority as he only spotted only 6 of them in total with half of them hanging out at a local café.

Regardless he got to learn about Miia how she came from a village filled with Lamia's and came here on a home exchange stay.

Unfortunately, it was during their conversation that he learned she had her eyes on someone she referred to as her darling, who was out working that day, which would've stun Kazuma, but hey it was one sided and on more than one occasions where she had bluntly came out to him, he either snuck out and said nothing, gave Kazuma a linger of hope that they could be more than neighbors someday.

"Well here we are, home sweet home" said Kazuma as they stood outside the house Miia was home staying at, which was rather large.

"Thank you Kazuma, you've been good company and neighbor" said Miia, "Hey, anytime you need company or someone to talk to, I'm right next door" said Kazuma coolly.

"So kind, but hey listen why not join me and the others for lunch, I've gotten quite better at cooking recently" said Miia with a prideful smile.

"Wait, others" asked Kazuma, "Just a couple of floozies who are trying to take my darling away, but they stand no chance against me since my darling truly loves me more than the others" said Miia.

Now normally, Kazuma would grumble and be upset that his neighbor was living the harem dream he rightfully deserved, and what Miia just said should be an obvious indicator that he had no chance, but optimistic to the very end, he decided to take his chance cause you never know.

"Rachnee, unhand me this instant" said a Centaur woman who was restrained in a BDSM role play manner, where it really helped emphasize and show off her tig ol' biddies.

"Aw, but itsy-bitsy me felt like you were ignoring me and thought this was an appropriate punishment" said Rachnee with sharp teeth smile, "Tis nothing but a web of lies of what you say on your tongue" said the centaur woman as she continued to struggle for her freedom.

"Bazoingas" Kazuma said unconsciously, "Did you say something Kazuma" said Miia, "Uh nothing, just um nothing" said Kazuma, before the duo realized they had a new face joining them.

"Miia, who's this guy" asked Rachnee, "Girls this is our new next door neighbor Kazuma, he was kind enough to assist me in grocery shopping" introduced Miia.

"Hey, Kazuma here" said Kazuma casually, "Well hey there neighbor, hope you're not intimidated by itsy-bitsy me" flirted Rachnee as she purposely shifted her body to give her bosom a bounce.

"No-naw- that is to say" said a tongue tied Kazuma who was intimidated and yet aroused in a way he might understand and sympathize Darkness for being a masochist.

"Please ignore my friend's bluntness, while I introduce myself as Centorea Shianus, but please feel free to call me Cerea" grunted Cerea as she was still restrained, which sounded very suggestive and audio smut erotic material.

So her situation didn't help when after struggling way too much, the buttons to her shirt finally decided to give in and pop as her breast layed bare for all, specifically Kazuma to see.

"Bazoingas" Kazuma said again as he put on a dumb monkey look as he let out a drip of blood coming out his nose.

"Kazuma please avert your eyes and do forgive me for being indecent" Cerea said with a mad blush, which finally snapped Kazuma of his stupor.

"Shit sorry about that, as Kazuma covered his eyes and tried to turn to the opposite direction to give her a moment to adjust herself, but wound up slamming head first into a wall.

"Kazuma are you alright" asked Miia as she crowded over while blocking Kazuma's field of vision to peak at Cerea again.

"Rachnee I've been quite patience playing this game with you, but could you kindly release me already" demanded Cerea as she had 3 tics on her forehead.

"Alright, alright, don't have a horse" said Rachnee, "The expression is not having a cow from what I recall" said Cerea as she was finally released.

"So you finally admit that the reason you have those huge knockers is because you're indeed half cow" said Rachnee, "Oh be quiet already" said Cerea as she left the room to compose herself.

"Kazuma are you alright" asked Miia, "Yeah, I think I hit my head hard enough to forget whatever I saw" said Kazuma as Miia helped him back to his feet.

"I'll be sure to pass it on to Cerea when she comes back" said Rachnee as she slowly approached Kazuma.

"By the way call me Rachnee" greeted Rachnee, "Sure thing, also out of curiosity, are there any more people here" asked Kazuma.

"There is, why" asked Rachnee, "Second question, does one of them happen to be the Grimm Reaper and should I be worried" Kazuma asked with his voice shaking.

Turning her head, Rachnee was nearly startled by the presence of Lala, "What's this, a mere mortal being able to witness Death before her presence, could you perhaps be the Sheppard of Fire, and he who walks amongst the world's" said Lala in an ominous voice while striking a pose that would normally be intimidating, except for the residence who live here, and Kazuma since he had to deal with this BS before.

"Oh my god, you girls have my most sincerest sympathy's" said Kazuma which was a first for any of them, as such it felt more embarrassing for them, especially Lala.

"Lala dear, did you forget the little talk we had and how I said that one day someone will feel sorry for you, well that day has finally come" said Rachnee as Lala stood there trembling and blushing.

"Please forgive Miss Lala, I'm afraid the poor girl is just expressing herself in her own special way" came a new voice.

The person in question was a girl in a wheel chair wearing a Gothic Lolita maid style dress as she was accompanied by Cerea.

"Oh dear, how rude of me I've yet to introduce myself" said the young woman before Cerea stepped forward to address her herself.

"Introducing Princess Meroune Lorelei, future queen to the mere people, as she humbly resides with us in our ever so humble abode" said Cerea that Kazuma was certain that she would definitely get along with Darkness do to being under the impression she might be a knight.

"Please stop Lady Cerea, I don't wish to share the knowledge of my royal heritage to anyone else" said Mero as she waved her arms to emphasize for her to cease.

"Please good sir, I only ask that you address me as simply as Mero and give me no other special treatment and hope we could be friends that see each other eye to eye" pleaded Mero.

The fact he was in the presence of royalty, who was the idle noble individual he had hope meeting someday, that wasn't either a masochist or someone he saw as a little sister, and well Kazuma couldn't help but took a knee before her.

"As you wish Lady Mero" Kazuma said respectfully, which he hasn't done without faking it in years.

Feeling like she lost another true friend of the opposite sex, Mero humbly accepted this was going to be their relationship from now on before a familiar humanoid blob snuck her way to rehydrate/violate Mero once more.

"Suu, unhand her this instant" said Cerea before noticing that Suu was freezing up and solidifying into ice.

Turning their heads, everyone saw the person responsible for this was none other than Kazuma, "Are you alright Lady Mero" asked Kazuma as he began to break Suu off her.

"I'm quite fine, but exactly what did you do to our dear friend Suu" asked Mero, "Come again" asked Kazuma as he was confused as Miia was boiling some water and Rachnee was gathering the ice chunks and placing them in a bucket.

"Forgive us for not mentioning her sooner, but the person you just so happen to freeze was another resident who lives here, who has no control of herself when she becomes dehydrated like that" explained Cerea.

Soon Kazuma bare witnessed that within seconds after gathering the chunks of ice into a bucket and pouring the hot water in said bucket, emerged a practically naked girl made up of pure liquid emerged to greet Kazuma, who was legit biting down his lower lip trying to not stare at the naked girl before him and be accused of a lolicon to his neighbors.

"Here you go Suu, please try to remain decent for at least the next hour" said Miia as she handed Suu a raincoat, which in reality made her more sexy.

"So Kazuma what kind of monster race do you come from" asked Miia, "I'm a human for the record" said Kazuma as this surprised everyone.

"Hold on there neighbor, as far I recall humans can't do ice magic unless they're an ice lad" said Rachnee, "Well I can do that and this" said Kazuma as he produce a small tinder of flame before the girls.

"Whoa that is so cool mister" said a blue haired harpy with blue feathers as she came out of nowhere and just witnessed Kazuma produce flame in his hand, as Kazuma turned to look at her.

"Hello" Kazuma said awkwardly, "Hi there, my name is Papi" introduced Papi happily, "Um hi, names Kazuma".

At this point, Papi notice Suu and was ready to play with her again and began to approach her, but after her 3rd step she turned back to face Kazuma, "Hi there, my name is Papi, who are you mister" asked Papi.

Kazuma was confused before he turned to the other residence for an answer or explanation and how he should approach this.

"Please forgive her, she's the picture definition of a birdbrain and will forget new people after taking 3 steps" explained Miia as Kazuma thought to himself and asked if she was part chicken.

"That is not true, Papi has gotten better and remembering things snakey" said Papi as she flapped her way over, before going back to Suu.

"Come on Suu, let's go play" said Papi before once again after taking the 3rd step forget everything all together once more.

"Hi there mister, who are you" Papi asked happily as Kazuma thought she truly was a birdbrain, "Names Kazuma" introduced Kazuma once more as he was going to have to get use to constantly introducing himself to her over and over again for a while.

"Guys, I'm home" came the voice of a man as all the girls seemed to charge over to the front door.

Turning his head around, Kazuma was amazed to see all the female residence pining for the attention of the one guy as he was constricted, yanked, smothered, and pulled in every directing that was possible.

"Darling welcome back" said Miia with a dreamy smile, "Thanks Miia" said 'Darling' before he noticed Kazuma.

"Hello there, I don't think we haven't met" said 'Darling' as Kazuma was mentally telling himself to behave himself and not assault the womanizer in front of him.

"Hi, I'm your new next door neighbor, Satou Kazuma" said Kazuma as approached the guy to shake hands, "Oh well welcome to the neighborhood, I'm Kimihito Kurursu" introduced the now revealed Kimihito.

"So you just moved in" asked Kimihito, "Yeah today actually, you know it was funny since after moving in I was ready to explore the city, where I bumped into Miia once I left my house" said Kazuma.

"It's true darling, and Kazuma was kind enough to assist me in grocery shopping for dinner tonight" said Miia, "Well ain't that neighborly of you" said Kimihito with a smile.

"Don't mention it" said Kazuma, "Well shoot, I'd hate to send you home empty handed, tell you what, why don't you hang with us for the rest of the day and join us for dinner" said Kimihito.

Seeing no reason to pass, and the fact he had a feeling the girls were still loitering around his house, Kazuma took the man's offer.

"Hey, sounds like a plan" said Kazuma as this got everyone happy to either pick his brain and have some new company to hang with, even though internally Kazuma was crying on the inside in defeat since he knew the chances of him dating any of the girls was no longer an option for him.

Later

After getting to know the girls personally and enjoying an awesome feast, Kazuma offered to help Kimihito in doing the dishes.

"Dude seriously, that was seriously one of the best spaghetti dinner I had in ages" said Kazuma as he still tasted the perfectly cooked al dente style pasta and marinara sauce

"You're too kind Kazuma, speaking of thank you" said Kimihito, "For what" asked a confused Kazuma.

"Well the thing is that not everyone is welcoming to liminials since they were allowed access to adapt and be members to our ever evolving society" said Kimihito as the memory of him standing up to that rude couple who were needlessly rude to Miia was still fresh.

"So hearing from Miia that you not only didn't judge her but also helped her out is very much appreciated and I wish there were more open minded individuals like that in our world today" said Kimihito.

It was at that moment that Kazuma realized why the girls like the guy, and Kazuma would hate to openly admit it, but the dude is a legit nice guy.

"Hey it's nothing, I've met normal girls, and I use that term loosely, who were everything that a normal guy would find desirably attractive, but their personalities were so terrible that…" said Kazuma as he trailed off towards the end.

"Hey no need to tell me, I had my share of experience as well, and learned that you shouldn't judge a book by its cover but its contents" said Kimihito, "Very true" said Kazuma.

Once they had finished cleaning the rest of the dishes, Kazuma bid farewell to everyone, before going back home as he really hoped either Eris did something to return them back or they headed his words and GTFO.

Upon entering inside, he saw that while the house was still in one piece, Megumin was mesmerized watching the hottest new Shonen, Aqua had drank all the booze in the house and Darkness was reading a book in peace.

"Kazuma, welcome back how was your day" asked Darkness with a smile as if forgetting how rude he was to them before he left.

"Sigh, please tell me Eris gave us like a date or estimated time when you girls return or left even a sign" asked Kazuma, "She said she'll try to pull some strings but is in trouble for sending these 2 here first and has to deal with that first and foremost" said Aqua in a drunken slur.

"For how long" asked Kazuma, "For at least a month" said Aqua as Kazuma began to grimace and let out a long painful sigh of defeat.

"Please tell me you're kidding me" asked Kazuma, "Hey, I'm a goddess I don't kid let alone lie and- oh god" said Aqua as she ran to the bathroom to hurl.

"You make a mess and you're cleaning that up" shouted Kazuma as he began to head towards his room, "Kazuma, are you going to bed for the night" asked Darkness.

"Damn right, come tomorrow morning, we'll figure out what the hell are we gonna do with your guys' situation, because like I said I want to start my peaceful life alone and starting my own harem to happen sooner or later and it's not going to happen so long as you 3 are still here" said Kazuma as Darkness and Megumin were dishearten to here that, expecting him to have a change of heart.

"Be thankful that I actually had a pretty great day to my new life, and letting you spend here for the night only, after which I expect you all to manage on your own somehow" said Kazuma.

"But Kazuma" said Megumin, "Nope that's the end of this discussion, and unfortunately for you, me or society for that matter no longer have a need for any of the skills you girls you previously offered, so be ready to learn how to readapt as either hostesses or something that provides pay for wherever you all decide to live at" said Kazuma before retreating to his room.

Clearly still upset over them for coming to see him unannounced like they did was still bothering Kazuma, in spite of the good intentions to it.

Regardless, it would not deter the girls of team Kazuma to make him realize that he means a lot to them and want to show him their appreciation before they do have to say goodbye forever.

Or at the very least so they don't have to be out on the street of this foreign new land to them, where they couldn't tell or know up from down.

Chapter 2

After a long relaxing night of sleeping and gaming, Kazuma came back out into the living room to see that it was in a state he had expected.

Megumin was passed out in the easy chair, blanket around her, a clear sign shoe stood up late watching anime, Aqua slept with her legs spread open, while scratching her belly.

All that was missing now was Darkness, and seeing how he heard no activities or smell any breakfast being made, he quickly deduced she wasn't in the kitchen.

After checking the other rooms and bathroom, Kazuma was beginning to worry as to where Darkness had ran off to.

Granted he did told her and others to hit the road by morning, but that was out of anger and frustration, and after giving it some thought and literally sleeping on it, the best course of action was to either a.) Deal with them and keep them hidden at home for the next month, or b.) Help them find jobs and place to move into.

Preferably in a different prefecture or at the very least in the farthest other end of town, where he'll be firm that visitation isn't available.

Already panicking, Kazuma began to slide on his shoes and rush out the door where he quickly tackled down and bumped into Darkness.

"Ah, Kazuma you fiend so early in the morning" perverted/lustfully/accusingly gasped Darkness as Kazuma had not only fell on top of her but was definitely getting a nice handful and feel of Darkness' boob.

In all honesty, this was not only the first time he felt a woman's breast, but honestly this was the sort of anime cliché that has ever happened to him, considering how he's been in more risqué situations like these and then some, and yet nothing like this has every happened, and he's had some pretty damn intimate moments with Darkness out of all people.

So you'd have to forgive him for just lying there and giving Darkness what he wanted as Kazuma continued to furiously grope and fondle Darkness as the remains of his dignity and self control as a functioning member to society was quickly dissipating.

"Darkness I want you to know that while I am thankful for you not putting up any resistance at all and continue to make those erotic moans that are starting to turn me on, I hope you realize that I was scared and worried about you for a brief second" explained Kazuma with a straight face as Darkness continued to moan.

"So please ease my mind and I might ease my hold on you so we can talk about why you were out here" said Kazuma as he lied about easing up on his continued assault on Darkness.

"I…just…gasp…came out…here…to…pant…to see…gasp…to see…pant…to…see…" moaned Darkness in pleasure as Kazuma knew Darkness could speak up, yet at this point he could hardly hear or care since this was to be a moment he cherish and tap once they go back inside.

"I shall return milord and return back with groceries" shouted Centorea next door over as this got Kazuma to break from his continued sexual assault on Darkness.

Getting and grabbing Darkness, Kazuma quickly bolted back inside the house and slammed the door shut, waking the other 2 residents in the new Satou household.

"Mm, what's with all the ruckus in here" yawned a tired Aqua, "No, it doesn't matter if you have money, you can't summon a bunch of monsters in a single turn" shouted Megumin.

"Right, so Darkness mind answering me, why they hell you were outside again" said Kazuma as he wanted to put what had transpired behind them, to which Darkness was more than complying to.

"Well I was trying to say that I just came outside to take a better look at this world you came from and wondered when we'll have the chance to get around to exploring the city" said Darkness.

Seeing as how the possibility of kicking them out was still a priority for Kazuma, he didn't necessarily saw it any major harm for wanting to be outside, and in fact would say this would work to his advantage.

"I did say you girls had to move out and find yourselves jobs come tomorrow" said Kazuma said as he made his way back into the kitchen.

"You're serious about that" asked a dejected Megumin, "Of course I am, now come on, we got a long day and the faster we get this done the faster I can enjoy the prospect and idea of finding me a cute single girl or 2" said Kazuma.

"I take it the NEET had no such luck even after being gone all day yesterday" snickered Aqua as this got the girls to lightly giggle as Kazuma grumbled.

While it was true his chances of probably hooking up with Miia, Centorea, Rachnee, or any of the other girls he met yesterday wasn't going to happen, it's not like they were all going to hook up with 'Darling' together, unless he's ok with that which he'll tell him to go screw himself.

"Shut up, now let's get up make ourselves look presentable and be ready to secure a job" said Kazuma as he poured himself some coffee.

Later

Once everyone got themselves ready, Kazuma realized one vital flaw in his goal of getting the girls jobs and out of his house, and that was their clothes.

No matter where you were to get a job at, no one was really going to hire a group of freaks and weirdoes dressed up for D&D night or some obscure generic cosplay to forgotten fandom medium.

Granted Kazuma wasn't necessarily presentable, as he opted to improvised and had mismatch both the clothes he had on his back when facing the demon lord and his post adventurer outfit.

But still, he looked like the type of guy who was better off having his mom dress him up, than what he was wearing.

"Alright, so before well break off, I've went out of my way to write down a few jobs I recommend you all should try hitting up first and foremost" said Kazuma as he handed everyone sheets of paper.

"Personal trainer at the local gym, greeter and store associate at a woman's boutique, human test subject at local pharmacies and beauty products, construction worker" read Darkness out loud.

"Convenient store employee, hostess at a local game store, part timer at the local arcade" Megumin read out loud, "Mine just reads good luck and to avoid bars and pachinko parlors" Aqua said out loud as she was unamused of what Kazuma was implying.

"Trust me, you girls will seriously thank me if it all goes well, Darkness please try to be refine from being yourself and switch on the Lalatina personality" said Kazuma, "I told you to never call me that" shouted an embarrassed Darkness.

"Well tough luck, you have a better chance getting hired by using your real given birth name, Megumin, if things don't work out, than honestly I don't know what to say" said Kazuma as he shook his head back and forth.

"And exactly what does that suppose to mean" asked an insulted Megumin, "You look like and dress like a kid" said Kazuma, "Kazuma I'm 16 years old, and therefore an adult".

"In this country and the majority of all the other countries around the world for that matter, you're not recognized as an adult until you've reached 20" said Kazuma as this deflated any comeback or argument Megumin would have because this is a new world with its own rules and laws.

"Hey Kazuma, aren't you forgetting about me and leaving me with some actual job recommendations" asked a still unamused Aqua as Kazuma stared at her silently for a minute.

"Aqua, please try to avoid racking up any debt, especially from the Yakuza, and Megumin and Darkness, I wish the best of luck with dealing with the goddess of debt" said Kazuma bluntly.

"The hell kind of pep talk is that stupid NEET" demanded Aqua as she shook Kazuma back and forth.

Before this could go any further, Kazuma was swiftly snatched away, when he felt some webbing clinging to the back of his shirt, leaving the girls confused.

"Oh my god it's a spider woman" commented Darkness, "Kazuma, if you apologize and accompany in looking for jobs, we'll save you" said Aqua, as a worried Megumin began to grab her staff and do the unnecessary explosive chant.

"Darkness blacker than black, more destructive than annihilation…" chanted Megumin as Kazuma was left dangling, wrapped, and gagged on the roof top of a building.

"Well hey there neighbor, fancy seeing you here" greeted Rachnee with a sharp teeth smile, as Kazuma said her name in a muffled tone.

"No need to thank itsy bitsy me, I'm just your friendly neighborhood spider woman" said Rachnee as she approached Kazuma and stood him straight.

"You know, I'm curious as to why 3 cute girls were hanging with a single bachelor like you, before they ganged up ready to beat you up" said Rachnee as she walked her way around Kazuma, before pressing her boobs on his back and leaning her mouth next to his ear.

"So tell me Kazuma, who were they, friends with benefits, one night stands, ex's, or all of the above" said Rachnee in his hear as Kazuma was blowing steam from his nose and was definitely nervous, yet weirdly aroused.

"Come on, we're neighbors, you're secrets safe with me, but a bit of warning before you answer" said Rachnee as Kazuma was beading sweat at this point.

"You shouldn't upset woman, and definitely not upset your neighbors that are filled with hot single woman, because we're especially the type to get jealous" said Rachnee almost in a seductive husky voice before nibbling on his earlobe.

It was too much for Kazuma as his eyes rolled back and was practically passed out as he began to fall face first, , but was stopped last minute when Rachnee tugged her web back before Kazuma slammed his mug on the roofs pavement.

"Oh dear, I really did it this time" Rachnee said in a feign innocent tone as she began to scoop Kazuma in her arms, before looking back down over the roof.

While she couldn't hear what they were saying, nor did she heard the entirety of their conversation, seeing them shouting and waving their fist, was a sure enough sign that those girls definitely knew Kazuma, and Rachnee was going to make it her goal to find out who they are and more importantly their relationship with one another.

Hopping and scuddling her way around the roofs and building, Rachnee eventually made it back home in Kurusu residence, with currently Mero, Papi, Suu, and Lala being around home today.

"It's the lad who lives in the fort next to our beloved castle, to what may be ailing him to be needed be carried back here" asked Lala as it took a minute for Rachnee to process and understand what she said.

"Our neighbor is fine for the most part, he was in a bit of a bind and itsy bitsy me did the right thing and rescued him" lied Rachnee as Papi came into the room.

"Who's he" asked Papi as she was referring to Kazuma, "He's our next door neighbor Papi, now let's let him rest for a spell before we have ourselves a chat" said Rachnee.

After unbinding him and laying him to rest on the couch, Rachnee took notice of the clothes he was wearing.

Granted his clothes weren't exactly fashionable as it was just a tracksuit from yesterday, but he was definitely wearing leather boots and pants and black t-shirt and something told Rachnee that Kazuma had no intentions of going out in public looking like he was DTF the first girl/monster girl he see's.

Granted she could argue that there were many who into that sort of relationship, but Kazuma didn't necessarily came off entirely like that, plus the way he was dressed made her thought he was an S in an S&M relationship.

Which granted in his house, he's entitled to play that role, but out in public and especially in this house, that wasn't going to fly for the Queen of S&M play.

"Let's see if there's anything itsy bitsy me can do for you and your image" said Rachnee as she began to take his measurements.

As this went on, Suu wanted to make herself apparent and stood over Kazuma after drinking some water, as evident by her massive water balloons.

"Suu, how are you feeling today" asked Rachnee as Suu smiled back at her, "Well that's good, listen I'm going upstairs to do a quick little project, if Honey or anyone else asks, please tell them I don't wish to be disturbed".

Making her way upstairs, Suu was unaware that Kazuma had got up and got a face full of her all water knockers, meaning he went head first in getting himself drowned unintentionally, meanwhile Suu was just seeing Rachnee go up the stairs with a smile.

Eventually, Kazuma found a means to break free as he began to gasp for air as Suu realized Kazuma was awake.

"Dear god I thought I was going to die there for a minute" Kazuma gasped out loud as Suu stared intently at Kazuma.

"Oh Suu was it, sorry again about freezing you yesterday" said Kazuma before his eyes trailed down and realized that Suu was both completely naked and her boobs were are lot bigger than he recalled.

"Uh…" said Kazuma as he began to bite down his lower lip, "Is everything alright Kazuma" asked Suu innocently as she tilted her head to the side.

"Yeah I'm good just…" trailed off Kazuma again as he let out a small tickle of blood down his nose.

Seeing her friend hurt, Suu began to leave Kazuma's presence to get something for his nose, giving Kazuma a chance to calm down and wonder how Kimihito deals with stuff like this on a daily without dying from blood loss.

"Oh Kazuma, I didn't know you were here visiting us again" said Mero as she changed her attire into a white button up and a black blazer as she had on reading glasses.

"There's a story to that, just like I'm sure there's a story to your sudden change of attire which if I'm entirely honest, is fine by the way" commented Kazuma, "Why thank you Kazuma, and your assumption is indeed correct" said Mero.

"You see, in order to feel like I'm not living here without providing something, and because mother refuses the notation of me working like a commoner, I offer to teach and educate both Suu and Papi every day, especially since Rachnee has acquired a job recently" said Mero.

"Very noble of you Lady Mero" said Kazuma as Suu came back and began to shove in tissue paper up his nose to stop the bleeding, as Mero lightly blush over being how Kazuma's been addressing her.

"Kazuma, if I may kindly request that you'd just address me as Mero, I'd really appreciate it" said Mero as Kazuma couldn't help but listen to her demands.

"For you Mero, I'd do anything" said Kazuma as Suu finished plugging in his nose, as he turned to address her once again, who was still completely naked.

Trying his hardest to look down past her neck line, Kazuma wanted to thank her for helping him.

"Thank you Suu" said Kazuma as Suu only answer back by smiling, "Oh my, it seems you 2 seem to be getting along fine" said Mero resting her face in her right hand.

"Yeah, something like that" said Kazuma trying not to stare at Suu's bare naked body in front of him.

"Oh dear, Suu I believe Kazuma is trying to refrain himself from appearing rude, please make yourself decent for the sake of our friend" said Mero as Suu looked down at her bare naked body.

Which at this point wasn't a big deal to anyone inside the Kurusu residence, especially Kimihito as this was normalize to them like how seeing how Darkness, Aqua, and Megumin dress became normalized to Kazuma until today.

Understanding they had guest over, Suu left the room to retrieve her rain coat as Kazuma began to relax.

"Thank you Mero" said Kazuma, "Think nothing of it, now I believe you were going to share how you came to be rescued by Rachnee" said Mero.

"Right, well like I said it's complicated but bottom line, I was just out and about doing some job hunting" said Kazuma, "That doesn't seem like a necessary reason to be rescued though" said Mero.

Before Kazuma could explain or improve his way what happened, they heard a knock on the door.

"I'll get it" said Papi as she made her way to the door and opened it to reveal that it was Agent Smith and MON Squad.

"Lady Smith, to what do we owe the pleasure for this unsuspected visit" asked Mero, "Funny story, a couple of girls called about your friend Rachnee kidnapping their boyfriend, or husband, or friend with benefits, honestly each one reacted and explain their connection with him a different manner that left a rather strange and unusual impression in regarding their relationship" began Ms. Smith.

"Yeah and based on their description, they said that the culprit responsible for all this mayhem was Rachnee" said Zombina as she whipped out twin machine pistols.

"Which is why because she's been well behaved and for the sake of darling, we'd figured that we approach her civilly and hear her side of the story" said Ms. Smith as Tio helped restrained Zombina from going gun-ho.

"Kazuma, care to explain what's all of this is about" asked Mero as she and everyone on the MON Squad turned to face the next door neighbor.

"Hey Smith, isn't he the guy based on the description" asked Tio as she blinked once, then twice, "Heh, well look at that, I knew there was a reason to trust on Manako and her intuition" said Ms. Smith as she turned to smile at the Cyclops.

"You just didn't want to deal with the extra paperwork of having to bust in and pay for property damages" said Zombina, "Hey I don't want to hear any of you girls complaining, with this all we have to do is right them up a fine, speaking of Manako" said Ms. Smith.

"Right, yes Ma'am" said Manako as she began to pull out a notepad and write down a ticket.

"A fine, for whom and for what" asked Mero, "Since this is Rachnee's second offence and no one came out hurt once more, some punishment has to be in order, however because I knew you guys, this is just a slap on the wrist" said Ms. Smith.

While they were all conversating about fining Rachnee, Kazuma was mentally apologizing to them repeatedly, because he was indirectly involved with a huge misunderstanding once more.

Granted it eased his mind that all he had to do was deal with was someone he knew getting fined and not another near death experience, but still.

"All right, before we can wrap this case up, I must ask, has this man done anything perverse to you or any of the other girls since his stay here" asked Ms. Smith as Kazuma was at a loss for words while trying to say something.

"What!" exclaimed Kazuma, "Hey, I'll get to you in a second" Ms. Smith said bluntly before looking at Mero.

"No, Kazuma has been an absolute gentlemen since his arrival yesterday when we learned he was our new neighbor" said Mero defending Kazuma who was thanking her for defending him.

"Well according to the description by the 3 girls we had questioned, they mentioned he was a scoundrel perverted shut in NEET, who was known for literally snatching the panties off woman, and if push came to shove, openly admitted he would drop kick them if necessary" explained Ms. Smith.

And there goes my reputation in starting a new life all over again, thought Kazuma as he could break down in tears as he was a John Doe back home and already was going to be labeled as a menace to society because of the 3 woman in his lives who still do nothing but cause him grief were spreading nothing but his bad qualities.

I guess I could flee the country still and start all over again, thought Kazuma as he felt that was his only solution to get himself not only far away from the girls, but to start his relaxing life again.

"Granted, their claims and accusations could be still considered invalid given how they were equally shady characters themselves" said Ms. Smith as hearing that really eased Kazuma as he felt he still had hope to start his new peaceful life all over again.

"But I'm curious to know and if you'd be so kind as to answer my question" said Ms. Smith as she approached Kazuma, "Tell me Kazuma, what is your relationship with those 3 girls anyway".

It was moments like these where Kazuma would question the world and the gods themselves as to what the hell did he deserve to always get it in the ass, especially when he thought he was in the clear.

And now he had to make an important decision as to whether to sell them out and finally get the life he deserved or own to knowing them and deal with the consequences.

I'm sure they can adjust to prison life, hell Darkness would probably enjoy it even, thought Kazuma as he was just about ready to sell the girls out, if not for them coming through the front door.

"Kazuma!" shouted the girls in joy as they all ran past the MON Squad and hug tackle the billionaire adventurer.

"We were so worried about you" said Megumin, "When we saw Ms. Smith and the other's parked outside next door, we had to check for ourselves and see that you were alive and well" said Darkness.

Kazuma was to shocked in silence to say anything at the moment as anything he would've said wouldn't help him in getting rid of the girls anymore at this point as all eyes were on him.

"Heh, guess it's true what they say, actions speak louder than words and this says it all" said Ms. Smith, "Hey, wait a minute" said Kazuma trying to reach out to her.

"Just promise us next time that the next time you call us, it's for a real emergency" said Ms. Smith with a wink before sliding on her Government Issue glasses.

"Heh, well here I thought guys and regular human girls harem was a thing of the past, but hey what are you gonna do" said Zombina, "Honestly I think they all look cute together" said Tio.

"Well, we've done our job for the day, let's get back to the office" said Ms. Smith as the Mon Squad walked out.

It was too late, absolutely too late for Kazuma, sure he was able to clear out all of this misunderstanding, but at what cost, leaving a questionable impression to his mostly hot new neighbors, and possibly any girl he could meet in town now.

I should've wished to be sent off into a space adventure and live the life of a space cowboy, thought Kazuma as he wished this was either a bad dream or to be 6 feet under.

"Hey, who are you guys" asked Papi innocently as Kazuma remembered the girls Shtick, while leaving the other girls confused.

And of course, Megumin would be the first one to get up and answer the call of addressing herself.

"I am she who can conjure explosions, the master of demolition, prodigy to the proud Crimson Demon Village, I am Megumin" said Megumin while striking a pose.

What she said wasn't false, Kazuma knew that, Aqua knew that, Darkness knew that, but his neighbors don't know it, and if you were to look at it from an outsider's perspective, this was an embarrassing sight to see.

Please god just kill me already and send me to hell, thought Kazuma as this was the straw that broke the camel's back as he knew that was no way no chance in hell he could show his face to his neighbors again.

"Then allow me address myself, she from the Crimson Demon village, for I am the personal emissary of Death himself, as I walk between the realms between the dead and the living, ensuring that the dead rest in peace" said Lala as she too strike a pose.

"Then tell me grim reaper, tell me your name and be true" said Megumin still stuck in her Chuunibyou ways, "You may call me Lala" said Lala as both stared each other down intently.

After a solid minute, Megumin smirked at Lala as she nodded back at her, signaling mad respect and a new friendship, while Kazuma felt nothing but embarrassment at the situation.

"Oh my, talk about giving a show of introduction" said Mero with a smile, "Yes, I couldn't have said it better" said Darkness as this surprised Kazuma how easily they hit it off.

"Behold everyone, for I have returned with the ingredients needed for tonight's dinner" said Centorea as she came into the front door at long last.

"Hmm, Kazuma it's good to see you again, and we apparently have company" said Centorea as she looked at the girls of team Kazuma.

As everyone was beginning to introduce themselves, Kazuma was left stunned how easily they were all getting along, as he himself thought, and still believe, that his chances of starting a new life was in ruin.

Before he could continue to dwell on those thoughts any further, Suu finally came back and tapped Kazuma over the shoulder.

"Oh, hey Suu what's new" asked Kazuma, "Who are these new girls" asked Suu as Kazuma never really did ever answer that million dollar question, which in all honesty he should, unless he wants to leave impression like what happened with Ms. Smith as he worried what she and everyone might assume of all of them may or may not be.

"Sigh, they're my friends and for the time being my roommates" said Kazuma as Suu smiled and nodded to Kazuma's answer.

In all honesty it could've been a lot worse, and in retrospect Kazuma should've given the girls the benefit of the doubt, but hey at least now he can carry on and maintain a relationship with his neighbors.

I guess I can go job hunting tomorrow, thought Kazuma as he decided to let the girls get along as he made himself comfortable on the couch.

Later

It was definitely an interesting day for Kazuma, not only did the girls decide not to further embarrass him, but even behaved themselves and make new friends.

"So you are both a noble and a crusader" asked Centorea as she stood besides Darkness and Mero, "Yes, though I am not proud of my noble heritage and upbringing" said Darkness.

"And why is that" asked Centorea, "People treat you different and are more than willing to put their lives on the line for my sake, when I am both capable and is a requirement based on my description as a crusader to be the shield" said Centorea.

"Yes, I can relate, it took some time for everyone, especially lady Centorea here to address me as simply Mero once she found out my lineage as a princess" said Mero.

"Regardless, I believe it is quite a noble deed for you to volunteer yourself as a crusader and protect those who can't protect myself, if I might say freely Darkness" said Centorea, "You may" said Darkness.

Ok, she's holding in her perverted desires and not being open about them, thought Kazuma as he kept an ear out for all the girls' activities.

"This is so fun" shouted Megumin as she, Lala, and Papi were playing COD BO Zombies, "Nothing is more apprehensible and yet brings joy then to kill the damned undead" said Lala.

"Oh, I'm down" said Papi as she was currently being revived by Lala, as Megumin was gibbing zombies into meat chunks, again nothing entirely wrong or for him to worry about.

Now what Kazuma was worried about was Aqua, who was interacting with Suu and Miia, who had returned about an hour ago, granted what they were doing was nothing to raise concern as of yet.

"And voila, Nature's Beauty" said Aqua as she was showing off her party tricks to both Suu and Miia, "Oh my, that is quite amazing" praised Miia.

"Why thank you, though stuff like these are nothing but trivial tricks to professional, especially when in the presence of a goddess" Aqua said proudly.

And here we go again, thought Kazuma as he shook his head back and forth as he saw confused Miia and Suu.

"I'm sorry, you're a what now" asked Miia, "Oh dear, I let that slip, well no matter I see no reason telling you guys that you are in the presence of the goddess of water, Aqua" said Aqua while holding 2 fans as they spouted water.

Taking a moment to take it in, Miia turned her attention to Kazuma, "Kazuma do you mind filling me in" asked Miia, "Sorry about that, she's always had a bit of a god complex since I first met her" lied Kazuma as he's had to say this a hundred time already.

"So rude" cried Aqua before turning to Megumin and Darkness, "Girls you believe me right, you were there when you not only saw me take back my place as a goddess in the heavenly realm, but also how that twerp of a goddess respects my authority".

While normally they'd be honest and back Aqua up since it was true as they did witness her become a goddess, but they decided not to on account Kazuma was begging them and mouthing them no.

Plus they had enough sense at this point that there are some things you don't say or mess with when you're in another world and are completely not sure how the citizens or society might react.

"Yeah please ignore her" said Darkness and Megumin as Aqua felt totally betrayed, "So cold you traitors" cried Aqua once more, "Oh hush, you brought this on yourself" sassed Kazuma.

Already feeling upset and embarrassed, Aqua did the only thing she new best and that was to cause a scene, as evident by her going up and shaking Kazuma while screaming.

"Stupid NEET, you're making me look like a fool" cried Aqua before Kazuma wrestled her off and proceeded to pull on her cheeks, "You're the last person I want to hear that from" scolded Kazuma as Aqua cried that he'd stop pulling on her cheeks.

"Hmm, I thought I heard a ruckus coming down stairs" came the voice of Rachnee as she was done finishing her project.

"It's her" said Aqua, Darkness, and Megumin accusingly as Rachnee merely smiled at them, "What's up" greeted Rachnee not caring who these girls are or how they felt about her.

"You're the one who kidnapped Kazuma earlier" Darkness said accusingly, "And the one responsible for me not being able to cast explosion" said Megumin.

"And if I recalled, you 3 were harassing our neighbor, speaking of" said Rachnee as she approached Kazuma, "Here's a little something from me to you, to fix your image".

Rachnee had handed Kazuma over a newly made green long sleeved button up shirt and jeans for him to wear, which Kazuma knew how he was going to use them.

"Thanks Rachnee, I really appreciate it" said Kazuma, "Anytime neighbor" said Rachnee with a smile as she rested her face in her hand.

"Hey, we're not done talking to you" said Aqua as the other girls began to approach her, only for Rachnee to flick her free hand and completely ensnare them all in her web.

"Oh, why so mad towards itsy bitsy me" Rachnee said innocently as the girls of team Kazuma were restrained in the same BDSM manner like before when Kazuma came to visit them first.

"You think this will stop us- Aaaaahhhh" screamed Darkness in pleasure as Kazuma went wide eye as he feared for this might happening.

"What's this, another one who enjoys this" cooed Rachnee as she slowly began to approach Darkness, "You fiend, do you worst to me, but please spar my friends" moaned Darkness in pleasure.

"Hmm, I might have to consider the offer" said Rachnee as Kazuma really wanted none of this to happen, "Rachnee, that is quite enough, you're already in enough trouble for today after the stunt you had pulled this morning" said Centorea.

"You mean saving our neighbor" asked Rachnee as she turned to face Centorea, "I'm afraid so, as Ms. Smith had left you with a fine that must be paid" said Mero as she handed the ticket addressed to Rachnee.

"Well ain't that unfair" said Rachnee, "Rachnee, if you may release our guest" said Centorea, "Oh poo, you're buzz kill".

"Hold on, I think I can get out if…I… can… free… my arm- Aaaahhhh" screamed Aqua as she was able to get her arm free, but not without some other results.

Tumbling forward into a new position, Aqua had inadvertently made it so to spread her legs open to not only show Kazuma, but to their new neighbors not only her lips, but that she was truly a natural blue haired.

Now while Kazuma did say many times in the past that he couldn't found himself aroused towards Aqua, and many times he's practically seen her bare ass for him and all to enjoy, he couldn't say he's seen her front butt before and as a bonus, he did found something attractive about Aqua worth tapping for, as evident by his nosebleed and trying to hide his member.

"Excuse me a minute I'll be right back" said Kazuma as he stepped outside to cool himself, literally I might add you.

Meanwhile Aqua was blushing beet red while welling up tears before beginning to cry.

"Waaaaaahhhh" cried Aqua, "Calm down girl, it was an accident" comforted Rachnee as she finally let them loose.

"I know that" cried Aqua some more, "Look, I'm sure Kazuma didn't meant to see" said Miia trying to calm her down.

"I know that, but still that stupid NEET practically defiled me with his eyes and I don't know whether to be upset because of the NEET saw a side of me that he ruined my chances for marriage or to be proud that finally he's seen me attractive enough that he finally felt turned on like all those other girls he had thought about when he touches himself late at night" cried Aqua.

While definitely ending on a TMI note, the girls in the Kurusu residence understood what was said between the lines, before looking at Darkness and Megumin for some answers.

"Ok, I got to ask and really, know what are your guys' relationship with Kazuma, more so with this one" asked Rachnee as she was referring to Aqua.

While Megumin could say that she and Kazuma did have romantic feelings for each other, whether they still hold is debatable, and Darkness will admit she has came out with her feelings for him.

As for Aqua, they uncertain as to what or how to really label or define her relationship with Kazuma, hell pretty sure the only thing they'd probably agree to is the same thing they're about to say.

"It's unusually complicated" said Darkness and Megumin together, just as Kazuma stepped in a, completely soaked from head to toe.

"Sigh, ok I'm good" said Kazuma as he stood in the door way while trying to avoid making eye contact with Aqua, who was doing the same thing.

"I think it's time for us to go home, and try job hunting again tomorrow" said Darkness as they all headed for the front door.

"Feel free to come by and visit us" said Miia, "Same here" said Darkness as the group allowed Aqua to head out first for obvious reasons.

"Hey Kazuma, mind holding on a for a minute" said Rachnee as Kazuma had his foot out the door with Megumin and Darkness waiting for him.

"You go on ahead I won't be long" said Kazuma as Darkness and Megumin did so Rachnee made her way towards him.

"What's up Rachnee" said Kazuma, "Oh nothing, I figured I should give you some free advice in regarding to dealing with woman" said Rachnee as Kazuma had feeling she would bring this up.

"Look for the record, I don't know what you think, but as I told Suu, whom you can tell everyone else who hasn't heard, there's nothing going on between me or them, like at all" said Kazuma as Rachnee went wide eye a little.

"Well ain't that good to know neighbor" said Rachnee, "But that wasn't what I was going to say" "Ok, so what's on your mind".

"Well now that I know you're still single, like honey, I figured it be wise for you to know that even girls whom you just met, will get jealous knowing that you're surrounded by cute girls, especially now since there's a low key war amongst us monster girls and human girls" said Rachnee.

"What are you trying to say" asked Kazuma as his heart was beating, before Rachnee leaned next Kazuma's ear.

"Don't get me wrong, I would like nothing more than to be the one to steal my honey's heart, but if not, just know that me and the girls do find you cute neighbor" said Rachnee be nipping on his earlobe again to get a reaction from Kazuma.

"Take care now, and be sure to keep itsy bitsy me in mind if you truly aren't interested in those normies" said Rachnee with a wink before going back inside.

Kazuma just stood there trying to mentally compose himself over what had happened.

Sure he wasn't anyone first choice, but the fact he was a candidate choice to the girls next door, really made Kazuma's night as he walked out into the main street and cheered as loud as he could, before finally going home.

Chapter 3

After getting a good night's rest and breakfast, the Satou household decided to start their day early and go out and seek out jobs.

Though after roughly an hour in, everyone decided to return home since the majority of the local businesses they had hit up had told them that almost all applications had to be filled and filed online.

Which is why currently they were all crowded around Kazuma's room submitting online applications.

"And there we go, your application has been submitted" said Kazuma as he had finished signing Megumin to apply for Kiddy land, McMini Golf and Arcade, and Laser Land's laser tag and arcade.

"Seriously, you're undermining my skills as a Crimson Demon" said Megumin, "No I'm not, I'm playing your strengths to your advantage, also are you sure you don't want to work at Bunkers Bakery and Café" asked Kazuma.

"Those people are actors, posers, normies even, unlike me a real mage of the Crimson Demon, who will only feel dirty and betraying her people, and even her friend Lala if I chose to work there" said Megumin with pride.

"Well you're no longer a mage who can do magic, to which I say thank god about that" said Kazuma since he learned real quick with Aqua talking to Eris, via through the toilet.

Yup as ridiculously and stupid it may sound, the gods were joking about grounding her from her duties and communicating with anyone, so the only moment of privacy Eris was given was when she was in the bathroom.

But back to the point, they discussed that since Kazuma agreed to come back here with all the skills he acquire, Aqua included, only he was able to use the skills he acquired as did Aqua do to obvious goddess reasons.

As for Darkness and Megumin, well they just they wanted to say goodbye to Kazuma and return back with Aqua, with none of them being aware that doing this would result in the goddess of luck getting grounded.

"Now hurry up and fill out that job application for 11-7" said Kazuma as he himself along with the girls had a few paper applications to fill out.

"Sigh, tell me again why I can't work as a deconstruction engineer like Darkness" asked Megumin, "You have to be at least 20, we've been over this already" said Kazuma.

"Darkness how are things going for you and Aqua" asked Kazuma as they were also writing their paper application.

"So far so good, just finished filling out my last one" said Darkness, "Aqua" called Kazuma, "Yeah, I'm almost done as well, shouldn't you be filling yours out as well" said Aqua.

"Yeah, I'll get to them right now" said Kazuma as he was now submitting his own online applications to work at places that offered high benefits for highschool dropouts/NEET's for a few years.

Yup, in spite of the fact Kazuma was practically housing illegal aliens with no I.D. background anywhere in their world, his problems were that he never did graduate from highschool on account of being dead, so he was kind of stuck doing these grunt jobs as well.

The only thing he was grateful about was how unlike most people who are stuck in these very same job positions, he lived in a house with no payments for housing or debts to pay.

Reality, he could work part time if he wanted to since he only needed the bare necessities, unless otherwise.

However, with Aqua as his roommate, something told him it's better to get a full time job, cause she wasn't the type to learn her lessons in terms of managing money and racking up debt.

Especially since the huge difference was that when she did have debts to pay, she was forced to work those payments off, where here in Japan and dealing with the Yakuza, if she was lucky, they'd force her to whore herself out, otherwise the goddess of water will finally be laid to rest back at her home with the fishes.

So to Kazuma, he hoped at the very least, whoever she did decide to borrow money from, that the very best case scenario for Aqua ad himself, was that she would spend the rest of her time in jail.

But that was neither here nor there as Kazuma was finally submitting his final job application for the day, at least online, before focusing on the 4 blank sheets of paper for himself.

"Finally, I'm done" said Megumin as she set down her pencil, "Let me see that and review it" said Kazuma as what he saw wasn't surprising.

It was a good thing he decided to give her a pencil so that everything she did could be erased and reworked, given how half the stuff that was written on the paper were explosions and mushroom clouds along with a chibi doodle of herself.

"Sigh, you know this is why I still refer to you as a child" Kazuma said frustratingly as he should've written Megumin's application from the start.

"What's wrong with it now" asked Megumin as she felt insulted, "Seriously, this is the sort of shit that no adult in this society will accept no matter how layback the job position in question may be, and why this further proves my statement and labeling you as a child" Kazuma said as he banged his head on the table.

While Kazuma wanted to bang his head against the table for not knowing better, he put that on hold as he decided to review some of the applications that Darkness and Aqua applied for.

For the most part, they weren't bad, just missing some vital information from Aqua that was in all honesty impossible to fill in, because of her being a goddess and all that.

"Kazuma do you see anything out of place" asked Darkness, "No…not really" said Kazuma as he set the applications aside and began to fill out his and Megumin's.

"Well, I'm off" said Aqua as she made her way towards the front door, "Where are you going" asked Kazuma as her being out in public without a purpose worried Kazuma.

"I'm off to spend the day out with Miia, she said that there was a sale going on at the local strip mall and boutiques she wanted to check out and she was going to treat me to some lunch" explained Aqua.

"And I too have other affairs with Centorea, she said she was going to show me to this place called a 'gym', where we are free to train like knights" said Darkness.

"Don't get your hopes up and please for the love of god, don't do anything to get yourself arrested, more so in the company of our new neighbors" said Kazuma as he could already seeing this as a burning car crash where everyone dies.

"And I'm off as well" said Megumin as she too began to head towards the front door, as Kazuma saw her off.

"Have fun" said Kazuma as he had nothing to worry about since her biggest problem was permanently nerfed, and so long as she's only embarrassing herself, he says whatever.

Finally alone at last, Kazuma finished filling out his job applications and Megumin's before at long last got to take a breather.

"Sigh finally done" said Kazuma, "Working hard I see" came the voice of Ms. Smith as she was enjoying some of the coffee that was left lying around.

"Whoa now, what the hell are you doing here" asked a startled Kazuma, "Relax NEET, I was in the area to visit Darling and the stay at home guest for their quarterly check up and review over their time with him, which has yet to be anything negative" explained Ms. Smith.

"That still doesn't explain why you're here, also my name is not NEET it's Kazuma" said a miff Kazuma, "Heh, sorry about that, but your girlfriend with the blue hair kept calling you that, I figured that was her way of affectioning calling by your pet name, but hey I'm now proven wrong" said Ms. Smith as she sipped from her mug.

"For the record, she's not my girlfriend, and secondly this is considered breaking and entering from my perspective, even if you do work for the government" said Kazuma as Ms. Smith has proven herself to be a nuisance.

"Hah, I knew that this day would come, so read it weep, I got full governmental permits that allows me to enter any building at any given time" said Ms. Smith as she showed off her paperwork to Kazuma as she smiled.

"These papers expired 3 weeks ago" said Kazuma as this got Ms. Smith to cough out her coffee a little, as Kazuma was left baffled that permits like this even existed to begin with.

"Anyways it's not like my visit here wasn't out of the blue, I came here to offer you a proposition" said Ms. Smith as she wiped the coffee dripping from the side of her mouth.

"What kind of proposition" asked Kazuma as he raised a brow, "Well I've ran into Darling yesterday and asked him about his thoughts regarding you and your view point of monster girls, and said your upright guy who doesn't discriminate or do anything he shouldn't" said Ms. Smith.

"Oh, really" said Kazuma as this caught him off guard since any gossip surrounding him is usually negative and is usually viewed as a degenerate, and he puts all the blame on Aqua and the others, mainly Aqua.

"Yeah, so I was wondering if you'd be willing to accept a liminial into your house as a home stay" asked Ms. Smith as she took a sip from her mug once more.

"Come again" asked Kazuma as this threw him for a loop, "That's right, you came highly recommended by Darling that you were a perfect candidate to housing a liminial, especially since not many are willing without exploiting them or worse are still not welcoming of them" said Ms. Smith.

"So what do you say, interested" asked Ms. Smith as Kazuma legit saw this as an opportunity to find and house a girl of his own and through time and the proper steps have himself a steady girlfriend, of course if she's DTF all the better for him.

"Sounds good to me, where do I sign" asked an all too eager Kazuma, "Sigh, thank god, we have a bunch waiting to be housed and not many people are willing to open their doors" said Ms. Smith in relief.

"I'll be mailing you in the paperwork later on this week, but until then I'll start making arrangements for your new house stay to start moving in later on tonight" said Ms. Smith as she began to get up from her seat and make her leave.

"Oh I should mention that you won't get your rule book and regulations until you get your paper work, however I want to make one thing clear, should you try to do anything to harm your new house stay, or anything they find uncomfortable, we will have no choice but to deport them and throw your ass and jail and throw away the key" Ms. Smith said seriously as Kazuma let out a 'huh'.

"Yes, that's some serious shit you don't want to get yourself into, and paper work I rather not deal with, not to mention it could rise and stir up unnecessary tension" said Ms. Smith.

"But wait hold on, what if say we want to go out and you know… do it" said Kazuma nervously, "Funny how you should mention that, because we had close calls on both parties previously in the past, hell even Darling could tell you a tale or 2" said Ms. Smith.

"If however that does become the case, especially in a nonconsensual manner, depending on who was the victim, it'll be settled in court, but hey there's nothing say you can't do it once your both married which so far is the safest bet we can offer at the moment until further notice" explained Ms. Smith.

"Now I better hurry before the girls nag me to death, until then we'll keep in touch Neighbor" said Ms. Smith before closing the door behind her.

After hearing that tid bit of information, Kazuma was left in a pickle as to whether or not this home stay was a good thing for a number of reasons, like how they can't screw until marriage which wasn't on Kazuma's agenda.

More so the home stay was coming in later on tonight and he hasn't figured a way to deal with Aqua, Darkness, and Megumin yet, a realization that just hit him.

"Damn it to hell!" shouted Kazuma as he wasn't sure if he could even restart this new life of his anymore or if he made the right wish anymore as he began to pace around the house and think about what's the smartest and most selfish thing he could do right now to save his situation.

After joining not on Miia, but Kimihito for a day of shopping, they all finally sat down together to enjoy some lunch together, where Aqua finally got to meet Darling at long last.

"So you were the first one to move in right" asked Aqua as she was referring to Miia, "That's right, it was just me and Darling for a few weeks of just the 2 of us, until the others came and slowed down my progression to be with my Darling" said Miia.

"She means about us getting married someday" said Kimihito, "Aw that's sweet, honestly I think you 2 are the cutest couple I've seen in years" cooed Aqua.

"Really" said Miia as hearing something like that makes her feel extra happy and special that her and Kurusu were meant to be.

"Technically, we're not dating" admitted Kimihito, "Really, and why's that" asked Aqua as she legit landed on a land mine that Kimihito hoped no one would dare step on.

Realizing that fact and never asking herself Miia ceased her moment of gushing and turned to face her darling, eager to hear his answer as to why they aren't officially a couple since she made no secret of hiding her love for him.

"It's complicated honestly" admitted Kimihito, "It's not that complicated darling, I've never shied from my feelings to you and in spite of us being together the longest, nothing has happened and yet nothing is stopping us to be a couple, so tell me why" asked Miia as she was upset over his answer.

"Miia listen, it's not like I never considered your feelings, but that's the thing I have to consider the feelings of everyone else back at home as well, not to mention it's not that easy especially with the ever changing and evolving laws between humans and liminials" said Kimihito.

"But darling the laws have practically changed to where it's ok for us to date and be together forever some day, so why can't we start dating already" asked Miia.

"It wouldn't be fair for the others back at home, you know it and I know it" said Kimihito as he was right, since in spite of all of their fighting, Miia wouldn't want to her friends and other house guest.

"Alright, you're right but promise me that you'll consider me to be your girlfriend someday" said Miia innocently, "There's not a day that doesn't go by where I'm not considering it" admitted Kimihito with a warm smile.

Hearing that real beamed Miia up as she was moved to tears, before proceeding to constrict and hug him to near death again.

"Oh darling" cried Miia as Kimihito was gasping for air, while Aqua during this whole time felt proud of herself being that push to get them to realize for each other's feelings.

Even though this could have ended very bad very quick and would probably deny being held accountable, until Kazuma gets involved.

"Oh, look at us treating you as the 3rd wheel" Miia said embarrassingly as she released Kimihito who was finally able to breath and fell his arms again.

"It's fine, like I said you both look cute together and I totally support you both" said Aqua with a thumbs up as Miia returned the gesture.

"So tell me Aqua and be honest, what's going on between you and Kazuma, I'm curious to know everything" said Miia as she wagged her tail a little.

"Hmm, well me and Kazuma have been together since the NEET got himself killed and dragged me along in his crusade of slaying the Demon Lord" said Aqua honestly while Miia and Kimihito looked at her in the same way they see Lala when she speaks like that.

"So you can say that me and the NEET have known each other since forever especially since I was the first girl he met, before we started our adventures together" continued Aqua.

"But it wasn't easy at all for me, like sure we worked hard together every day doing construction for the first month, before we proceeded to enjoy a feast and drinks up until the guild closed, where for the longest we slept in the stables" continued Aqua.

"Eventually the NEET put his luck into good use and not only earned a lot of money, but also a mansion at some point if you could believe it, but the thing was that he was stingy with his money and if that wasn't the problem he'd always found a way where we loosed it all, only for us to come out of it again".

"It sounds like you really care about Kazuma" said Kurusu, "Don't get me wrong he's still a panty snatching, peeping tom, shut in NEET who's stingy with his money and mistreats goddesses like me, but he has payed off my debts, bought rounds for not me but everyone back at the guild after we succeeded in accomplishing a tough mission, has always kept me fed, and there to comfort me after I've been slimed or when other people insults me" admitted Aqua.

If Kurusu could interpret Aqua's words, they were childhood friends who stuck towards each other in spite of their faults, with Kazuma especially looking out for her.

This is in spite of what Aqua has been telling nothing but the truth, but honestly no one would dare to believe her, so long as Kazuma denies her of these claims.

"So Aqua, do you and Kazuma ever plan to get married or are you guys already married" asked Miia as this caught Aqua off guard now.

"Oh no, never in my whole existence would I even think about marrying that NEET, much less date him" said Aqua, "Really, cause it sounds like you 2 are perfect for each other, especially since Kazuma has done a lot for you" said Miia.

"Well that's the price he has to pay when being associated with a goddess like me" Aqua said as if it was a valid excuse, "But doesn't that make you sound and look like a gold digger" said Kimihito as his honest words hit Aqua.

"Yeah it does, and frankly I'd hate to look at you like that, but Kazuma has been a nice neighbor and friend to us so far" said Miia as that added pressure to Aqua who felt like her friendship was now on the line.

"I mean don't get me wrong, Kazuma's a great guy and all, just that there's nothing going on between us, I mean I think he had something with Megumin for a while and I think Darkness even has feelings for him too you know" Aqua said trying to salvage this friendship.

"Oh I see, you feel inferior and lost your chance to confess your feelings for Kazuma since he's already got 2 girls chasing him openly" said Miia as this was definitely not what Aqua was saying.

"Well look take it from me, even though none of the girls have said it, they have shown to have feelings for wanting darling as well, but that only means I have to work harder in hopes of being with him together someday, and never think for moment that I may never be with my darling" said Miia.

"She's right Aqua, take it from not only Miia, but also me, since out of all the girls living at home, none of them works harder than Miia and that is something I hugely admire and what gets me to notice her" said Kimihito.

"So have no fears, just try to work up the courage and tell him how you feel, and with a little bit of time and effort, Kazuma will fall head over heels for you, especially since you've known each other the longest together" said Kimihito with a smile.

"And if you ever need some help, I'll be here routing for you all the way girl" said Miia as she and Kimihito seem dead set in shipping their new OTP.

"Hold on, but I don't even like Kazuma" said Aqua as she felt there was no room to argue, "Aqua, you got to stop telling yourself that, otherwise you'll never get him" said Miia, "Yes, I concur" said Kimihito as Aqua would eventually throw a fit and scene before submitting to defeat and their beliefs.

After an intense workout, Darkness and Cerea were sitting on the benches catching their breath, while gym instructor and fitness health nut Polt brought them not only water but protein drinks.

"Wow, I never witnesses something intense since you challenged your mother to that jousting contest" said Polt, "I must admit, I never have faced a human who was able to take so many blows without being down for the count" said Cerea.

"Thank you for the compliments, but as a crusader it is my duty to protect those who can't protect themselves, to otherwise serving as a shield even at the cost of my own life" said Darkness.

"While it is a noble and disciplined practice, you'd be of more good and a better shield if you'd trying landing your attacks everyone once and a while" said Cerea as she was examining Darkness throughout their spar.

While Darkness was a tough wall to knock down, she clearly couldn't hit the broadside of the barn, at a foot away while holding the biggest sword in existence that offers auto aim and hits.

More so Darkness had been reduced into what was once a fully clothed and padded workout equipment into a single body armor and leggings with tears everywhere, with one being big enough to reveal her pink laced bra on her left boob.

"I understand what you're saying, but truth be said that's not a possible on account that I only got into the crusader class because I want to be shield" said Darkness as she was slowly showing her masochistic side.

"Oh just imagine, being surrounding by all sides against orc and goblins, being out numbered and beaten to the ground before they decide to take their lu- ow" cried Darkness as she held her head after Cerea bopped it.

"Forgive me Lady Lalatina, but I simply cannot allow you to continue this route as a crusader if you continue to take the job as a joke" Cerea said seriously.

"H-how- who told you of my name" demanded Darkness as she was only ever genuinely embarrassed when someone addressed her by her real name.

"Kazuma was kind enough to tell me more about you and everyone else in a text he sent us overnight, but that aside, if you chose not to be serious towards your duty as a crusader, than I must be serious in telling you to give up for your own good and resume your noble life as the sole heiress to the Dustiness Ford name, Lalatina" said Cerea.

"Please I swear I'll start taking things seriously, just promise to never call me by that name ever again" pleaded Darkness, "As you wish Darkness, now I think we've rested enough and I believe the most appropriate thing to do is now focus on your swordsmanship and accuracy" said Cerea as she turned to Polt.

"Polt, you wouldn't happen to have a training dummy or 2 we could use" asked Cerea, "You 2 hang tight and wait, I'll bring them out" said Polt before heading off.

"Now that we're alone, I've been meaning to ask, what is your relationship with Kazuma" asked Cerea as this got Darkness to let out a random high squeaked sound.

"Why the sudden question and interest" asked a flustered Darkness, "You know just asking and for making small talk" said Cerea as she too blushed since she wasn't one to normally ask these more a feminine questions like these.

"Well you see…" Darkness said nervously, "I can see this is not a comfortable subject you're with, let's drop it" said Cerea, "No it's that I do like Kazuma and on 2 separate occasions confessed my feelings towards him".

"Oh my, well please go on" said Cerea as she was interested to hear, "Well you see Kazuma is exactly the man I pine for, aggressive, brash, selfish, cowardly even, and very lustful in perverse" said Darkness.

"We are talking about the same Kazuma right" asked Cerea as she never saw this side of Kazuma and hope to either never have to or that Darkness was delusional.

"We are, but unlike most man, he's resourceful, crafty, one who'd put aside his negative aspects to do the right thing, willing to sacrifice his life for the greater good, plus unlike all men, he's an advocate for gender equality" said Darkness.

Hearing those positives eased Cerea's worried mind over what negative thought she was starting to have of Kazuma, and could see why she'd fall for a man like Kazuma.

"Well between you and me dear friend, I hope that someday you and Kazuma wound up happily ever after one day" said Cerea, "I do hope so too, just he never returned my feelings, and also he dated Megumin for some time" Darkness admitted dejectedly.

"Really now" asked Cerea as she couldn't imagine the 2 date and it wasn't because of the age gap, rather the whole personality seems to clash.

"Yes, though granted I feel like they're no longer together for whatever reason as of now, though who's to say" said Darkness, "Who's to say that he won't finally come to his senses and seek you out instead" spoke of Cerea as it snapped Darkness from wallowing in her self pity.

"Darkness, I know you've been rejected, but if there's a clear opportunity and he's available, I say now's a good chance as any other, stand proud as the crusader you are and what you'll soon become, for by the time we're done with our training, you'll have the confidence and the will to prove not only him, but the world of your love is true to him and him alone" said Cerea.

"You're right Cerea, I appreciate every word you've said" said Darkness with new found confidence, "Anytime dear friend" Cerea said with a smile just as Polt had returned hauling the training dummies.

Elsewhere

Megumin had been out in the park with the company of Suu, Papi, and Lala playing with the other neighborhood kids, big and small, human or liminial.

"And that was how I singlehandedly took on and defeated the General that was Sylvia" Megumin as she took a pose as everyone found her story to be impressive.

"Quite interesting Megumin, though I must ask as to how vexing it is that Kazuma a man who had lived and died and lived again, and though he was carried into the gates of Valhalla, he never chose to stay" said Lala.

"Yeah, in spite of him being an ass every now and again wishing he'd be dead and move on, really he can't live without us" said Megumin, "Though tell me who's the one responsible for interfering the work of the reaper" asked Lala.

"Oh Aqua, knows how to cast revive that's why" said Megumin, "I see, I should have a serious talk with this Aqua soon" said Lala as her scythe shined a little.

"Word of warning, she may not look like it, but she does have a good right hook" said Megumin as she remembered her knocking out big sword guy what's his name.

"Hmm, noted" said Lala as both began to take dramatic pose once again, "She who is the genius amongst the Crimson Demons, lay forth and explain your association to he who walks amongst the dead and living".

"Grim reaper, not today shall you claim him for the god of death, for I won't allow you to reap the man who offered me a home and a hot meal when I had no place to call my own" said Megumin.

"He offered you shelter" said Lala, "He offered me a purpose to cast beautiful explosions every day, for without doing so, I will die, that is until he lit the fuse in my explosive heart" said Megumin.

"For how long have you been courted to the man" asked Lala, "No quarter of the courted, for we've been as one pact for 6 full moons" explained Megumin.

"Wonder what they're talking about" asked Papi as she was confused over what they were say, "They're talking about Megumin's love life she had with Kazuma and how recently it's as been as if it never happened" explained Suu with a smile.

"Well what are they saying now" asked Papi, "Megumin needs to confront and address the matter to Kazuma by tonight, otherwise she'll regret and hate herself" explained Suu.

"Then let's be off grim reaper and settle the matter on a feast worthy for our great power" said Megumin, "Absolutely wielder of explosive magic" said Lala before they turned to face Papi and Suu.

"Hey guys let's head back home and get lunch" called Megumin, "Lunch" Papi said eagerly as Suu followed shortly after.

Later

After having enjoyed himself a peaceful day at home alone of just himself, and being able to game in peace, Kazuma was reminded that in a little over a month from now, Aqua, Darkness, and Megumin will be out of his life for good so he could live the life of a bachelor.

Granted he learned he can't really get it on with a monster girl like that, but hey there are fish in the sea, specifically single female girls who'd probably be desperate enough to date him, just as soon as he starts making an income again and see his skills.

"Huh, wonder if there's any I can put my numerous skills to work" asked Kazuma as he wasn't a one trick pony like Megumin.

"Maybe I could finally convince that goddess to teach me how to cast healing magic already" Kazuma said as he began to make a spot on the couch and put on the news.

"In other news, a liminial woman had to be brought in to question, after indecently exposing herself at a swimsuit store, roll the tape" said the anchorman as we see a dragon newt woman being apprehended by the MON squad as she shouted she was innocent.

"Wow, those girls from yesterday are famous" Kazuma said out loud, before he heard someone knocking at his front door.

"Wonder who that could be" asked Kazuma as he answered the door to see a bunch of guys in construction clothing and helmets.

"Satou Kazuma" asked one of the workers, "Yeah that's me" said Kazuma, "If you could sign and date these papers, while we modify your house that be great" said the man as all the construction workers began to get to work.

"What the hell is all this" asked Kazuma, "Renovation for your house stays, we need to modify to fit each of their taste and liking, making it more comfortable for them to stay" explained the worker.

"I'm sorry, did you say home stays as in more than one" asked Kazuma, "Yes, and for the census record, could you clarify as to who many currently live under your roof before we decided to add rooms or not" said the worker.

"Well at the moment I got 3 guest using some rooms, not including my room in the master bedroom, but they're only here for about a month" said Kazuma.

"Are any of them here to detest or having any objections for having new roommates" asked the worker, "Quite the opposite really, though honestly I don't think they're down to share" admitted Kazuma.

"Alright, good to know, we'll take things from here, if you want to come back in an hour, we'll have your new house ready" said the worker as Kazuma began to head out and let them do their thing.

"Well now what do I do" asked Kazuma out loud, "Hey Kazuma" called Kimihito as he was accompanying Miia and Aqua, "Hey what's up".

"Just getting back from a day with shopping, what's going on here" asked Kimihito, "Apparently renovation for my home stays" said Kazuma.

"See, I told you he likes you girls" Miia whispered to Aqua, "Well it's about time you finally dedicated a shrine to yours truly, and as my first follower in this world, I grant you the title as supreme head priest" said Aqua.

"It's not for you, I mean we're going to have more people staying with us before nightfall" said Kazuma, "Hey what's going on here" asked Megumin as they all came back from the park.

"Apparently we're having more people moving in with us" Aqua said, "Really who" asked Megumin, "A couple of liminials that Mrs. Smith said she'll bring around nightfall" explained Kazuma.

"Wait did you say Ms. Smith is arranging this" Miia asked as everyone next door knew that this was her being too lazy to do her job right and is now making herself a burden towards Kazuma.

"What has Ms. Smith arranged for this time" asked Cerea as she and Darkness finally returned, "Apparently Kazuma has allowed Ms. Smith talking into taking in liminials in his house" Miia said as Cerea nodded.

"Seriously, what's wrong, you guys are freaking me out" asked Kazuma, "Well neighbor, it's like this, we all originally moved in here by accident due to the convenience of Mrs. Smith who's known for doing a half ass job all the time" explained Rachnee as she and Mero came outside to check up on the commotion.

"Seriously, it can't be that bad" Kazuma said optimistically before everyone heard the screeching tire of the MON van being parked a few feet away from them.

"Seriously Ms. Smith can you do your job right for once" said Zombina as she and the rest of the squad hopped out the van.

"Oh jeez, what's up guys" greeted Miia, "Ms. Smith is having us work as couriers in handing your neighbor these and this" said Zombina as Manako was carrying the interspecies home stay rule book and Tio carrying a small stack of paper work.

"What's all this" asked Kazuma as it was all handed to him, "We need you to sign these before your new home stays come tonight, and whenever you get the chance read up on that book" explained Manako.

"Hold on, Ms. Smith said I'll be getting this in a few weeks" said Kazuma as he never expected to sign this much paperwork, since he honestly for see's himself skim reading it.

"Yeah, well the boys back on the office have been a bit of a hard ass on us getting things officially done right and in order, and because they don't trust Ms. Smith anymore, well here you go" said Zombina.

"Hold on, this is all going too fast, I think we need to talk about this and try to figure things out" said Darkness as everyone began to talk amongst themselves.

"Hey. Hey! HEY!" shouted Kazuma but no one could hear him, before he decided to put the stacks of paper down before combing tinder and a gust of wind to light a bright fire over his head.

"Now that I got your attention, let's go inside and talk about this as adults, Kimihito mind if we use your house" Kazuma asked his neighbor, "Not at all, let's go inside everyone" said Kimihito as everyone did so.

Time Skip

After filling in everyone how this came to be, while filling in the paper work, everyone seemed to calm down, well for the most part.

"So wait, your neighbor here can do like actual magic" asked Zombina, "Yup, and so can Aqua to that extent" said Miia.

"Really, mind showing us" asked Tio, to which Aqua did as she pulled out 2 fans and performed her famous party trick for the MON squad.

"That's amazing Aqua" said Manako, "Hmm, this is nothing" Aqua said with a smile filled with confidence, "Legit compare to what I do, her magic is indeed nothing" said Kazuma.

"What was that stupid NEET" said Aqua, "You heard me goddess of debt" said Kazuma as he got up in Aqua's face.

"That's it I'll show you the power of a goddess this instant" said Aqua as she began to channel a lot of energy people can see.

While everyone was in awe, Suu had the sense to hop out the window without a second thought, since what came next was the whole house being flooded as everyone was attempting to catch their breath.

"AQUA" gargled an angry Kazuma as everyone was swimming in the flooded Kurusu household, as Mero swam to open the front door, where she opened it to allow the water out.

Eventually, everyone came out and like fish out of water, began to flop around for air.

"Damn it, when I get my hands on her" Kazuma said as he began to pick himself up and felt he was getting a handful of something rather soft, followed by a 'Kya'.

Looking down, Kazuma was legit copping a feel from Miia who looked at Kazuma with embarrassment.

"Oh shit Miia, I'm so sorry" Kazuma said apologetically as Miia furthered blush, "Than could you please let go already" said Miia as she slapped Kazuma with her tail, sending him face first into a Rachnee's bare breast as her top came up when they were flushed out the house.

"Hello neighbor, enjoying the feel and view" said Rachnee as she decided to take this as a chance to tease Kazuma instead of feeling startled.

"Soft…so soft" said Kazuma as his nose was bleeding, "Hey Kazuma, you're showing your perverted side again" said Aqua as that snapped Kazuma to try to pull back.

"Nope, he's surprisingly warm and last thing I want is to catch a cold, plus his reactions are priceless on account of how cute he ease" said Rachnee with her sharp teeth smile as this seemed to get a reaction from Darkness, Megumin, and Miia for Aqua's account.

"Cease thy teasing and make yourself decent" said Cerea as she stepped forward to yank and yeet Kazuma off Rachnee as he was sent flying off into Aqua.

In return, Aqua side stepped and allowed for Megumin and Papi to take the blow, which resulted in Kazuma being face first between Megumin's legs and sliding his hand under Papi's shirt.

"K-k-k-Kazuma this is crossing a line you brute" said Megumin as she slammed her fist repeatedly on Kazuma's head causing him to unintentionally feel Papi.

"Hey mister, can you please stop already" said Papi as she decided to get up, resulting in Kazuma pulling down her top and flashing Kimihito.

"Darling cover your eyes" said Miia as she used her tail to cover and turn him away, resulting in him to put his hands forward and feel up Darkness.

"Kya, it seems that you and Kazuma have a lot in common" said Darkness, "Oh crap, sorry Darkness as Kimihito put his hands down as Miia came by his side.

"Darling, try to forget how her boob feels and try to remember mine" said Miia as she lead Kimihito's to her breast and held it there tightly.

"Miia now's not the time" said a panicked Kimihito as he tried to pull free, "On the contrary, why not feel mine lover boy" said Zombina as her boob fell off during the flooding and legit placed it in his hand.

"Hey Zombina, I found your other hand" called Tio, "Thanks mind handing it over" said Zombina, "You take your filthy boob out of my darling's hand this instant" said Miia as she released her hold on Kimihito and ready to swing towards Zombina.

Zombina easily dodged it as it resulted in Lala getting sent flying towards Kazuma who finally got free from the beating from Megumin.

In turn, Lala had tackled him down and layed on top of him as Kazuma was struggling to get free, but wound up copping a feel once more.

God I can't tell if this is the start or the end of my life and I don't even care anymore, thought Kazuma as he was enjoying feeling up Lala as she let out cute moans.

"Please Kazuma, I beg of you to stop and let me get up on my own" came the voice of Lala as if she was next to him, which didn't made sense to him since her voice should be above him.

After letting Lala lift herself briefly, Kazuma said Lala's head legit next to him and looking at him.

"Holy Shi-" said a muffled Kazuma as Lala's body acted instinctively and began to smother her breast back into Kazuma's face and hold him dearly.

"Gah, what the hell are you doing" demanded Lala as she hated these moments when her body would act honest like this.

As this went on, Ms. Smith was being accompanied by Doppel, who found her hiding under her bed at home under heaps of garbage.

"You seriously owe me and the girls big time" said Doppel, "Alright, just give me a break already, besides I'm certain Kazuma is done for with his paper work and ready for everyone to have his home stays move in by now" said Ms. Smith as she and Doppel walked into something that wasn't unusual yet none the less surprises her.

Currently Lala was asking her body to let go of Kazuma, as Kimihito layed face down on the ground as Miia, Zombina, Cerea were arguing as Tio was trying to break them apart.

Seeing as things were to hectic, Doppel had went into the MON van and picked up a megaphone for Ms. Smith.

"Hey guys break it up!" said Ms. Smith as this broke everyone apart from their shenanigans.

"Thank you" said Ms. Smith as she handed the megaphone back to Doppel, as she looked at Kazuma, "Hey Kazuma, you got that paper work done" asked Ms. Smith.

"I almost did until this one decided to flood the house and ruined it and the property" said Kazuma, "How's this my fault stupid NEET" cried Aqua.

"I'm not the one who flooded the damn house" said Kazuma, "Well you sure as hell instigated me into doing" said Aqua as they were both ready to get into it again.

"Whoa now, let's pump the breaks for a minute. Kazuma are you saying that the paperwork is destroyed" asked Ms. Smith, "Sigh, unfortunately" Kazuma said as he lowered his head in shame.

"Naw that's perfect, since it was destroyed in a situation like this there's nothing we can do but do the quick and easy way now, just sign here" said Ms. Smith as she pulled out her tablet and set it up for Kazuma to sign.

"And we didn't do this in the beginning because why" asked Kazuma as he was starting to get annoyed of Ms. Smith, "Trust me, I ask the same thing but you know how those bureaucrats can be for wanting and needing to go over mountains of paperwork and push it on everyone" explained Ms. Smith as Kazuma began to sign the digital abridged work.

"Sweet, and we're done" said Ms. Smith as they all heard the sounds of not only the construction team leaving, but vans carrying Kazuma's house stay arriving.

"Heh, perfect timing, now let's go and meet your new house guest neighbor" said Ms. Smith as everyone, including Kazuma are curious to know who'll be staying and living at the Satou household.

And I'm ending things there, I know such a terrible way to put this story on hiatus until further notice, but hey it gives me time to select some of the characters presented in the manga, which is probably the only way we're ever going to find out how things conclude since I personally don't fore see a season 2 anytime soon now.

Chapter 4

Returning back into the newly rebuilt Satou household, it was at least another story bigger, and was definitely wider.

"Come on in NEET, you're house guests are anxious to meet you" said Ms. Smith as Kazuma grumbled over the damn pet name he was given.

God damn it Aqua, you went and had to have some from the government to call me by that fucking nickname, thought Kazuma about dumping her under a bridge with only a box to provide her protection.

Upon opening the door to his house, sitting around the newly remodeled living room were at least 7 different woman waiting for him patiently, with one of them being at the very least a child, which he had no grievances with.

"Ladies I'd like you all to meet your home stay host" greeted Ms. Smith as all heads turned towards Kazuma.

"Well go on and introduce yourself NEET" said Ms. Smith, "Don't call me NEET, also I thought I was going to have one new addition entering my home, not a pre selected harem" said Kazuma between his teeth.

"I'll let that harem part slide, besides a single bachelor living by himself with 3 girls already, what does 7 more make difference" said Ms. Smith as she did have a fair argument.

Granted, he had no intentions of letting Megumin, Aqua, or Darkness stay longer than a month, and tried to avoid leaving his single home stay alone as much as possible, before they can spend quality alone time to get to know each other.

But now, now he feels like he's in a crappy game show and was wondering if it was too late to ask for Eris to send him to a place where he can be a king and far away from this troublesome trio.

"Right, my name is Satou Kazuma and I welcome you all to my house" said Kazuma, "Thank you for having us under your care Kazuma, my name is Yatsume and I'm humbled to make your acquaintance" said Yatsume, who looked like a mermaid at first glance to Kazuma, but slightly different, but doesn't know why.

"Hey, call me Moskii, I think you and I are gonna get along swimmingly" said Moskii as she was sucking juice directly from a melon with a proboscis coming out of her mouth.

"How's it going, just call me Leechi, also BT Dubs, we're definitely gonna get close to each other before the night ends" said Leechi as Kazuma was thrown back since he was legit hit on, on first arrival and impressions, which was a nice change of pace.

While he was getting back to reality, the previous named girls were circling around one girl who was wearing a heavy white cloak, before she made eye contact with Kazuma.

"Hello there" said Kazuma awkwardly to the young woman, "Hey, my name is Curie Drakulya, it's a pleasure to meet you" said Curie as she sounded weak, almost ill.

"Don't mind her, she may have the voice of a nervous angel, but she's great company once she opens up" said Leechi wrapping her arm around her best friends shoulder.

"Sup, just call me Killa" said Killa as she was definitely the most menacing looking from the whole bunch, and frankly speaking Kazuma now intends to sleep with a knife under his pillow for a while now.

The person sitting next to Killa was a weird mushroom capped looking girl who had her eyes averted and away from not only Kazuma, but everyone else this whole time.

Not sure how to even approach her, the moment Kino made eye contact with Kazuma she sprayed some sort of spore like cloud into the air, but was quickly snuffed out when Ms. Smith took out the spray bottle of water to put said cloud out without causing another hallucinogenic adventure like last time.

"Forgive her Kazuma, her name is Kino and she's by far the most nervous if not also dangerous individual we came upon, but she's desperate to come out of her shell so to speak" said Ms. Smith.

"Are you serious" asked Kazuma as he was starting to have second impressions towards Killa now, "Relax her spore clouds can easily but put out so long as you have water and given how you and your blue haired wife/girlfriend/lover/ex/ whatever your guys relationship is, I think she'll be in good hands" said Ms. Smith.

While he was ready to call out Ms. Smith from all the apparent bullshit she not only pulled on him so far, but his neighbors next door, that was put on hold when he felt something tugging on his jacket.

"Hello there" said Kazuma as he put on a kind smile once more, "Hi, my name is Yuuhi Hajime, it's finally good to meet you Kazuma onii-chan" said Yuuhi as being called onii-chan really turned Kazuma's attitude around.

"Right, now that you're all settled in, I'm off to get some dinner somewhere in town since Darling's home is completely flooded" said Ms. Smith as she and the M.O.N. Squad slipped out the back.

"Wow, I seriously did not expect to run into you again anytime soon" came the voice of Rachnee, which got the old faces to look at her and the residence of the Kurusu household once more.

"You again!" shouted Killa as she charged towards Rachnee ready to give her a piece of her mind, but found herself bound in place again.

"Seriously, why you mad after we buried the hatchet last time" said Rachnee, "Oh we buried the hatchet alright, but that doesn't mean I have every right to give you a piece of my mind still" said Killa angrily as she tried to untangle herself free.

Which resulted in her shaking her booty back in forth for Kazuma to get an eyeful of while biting down his lower lip.

Aqua, you definitely now have a rival in terms of who has the best ass in this household now, thought Kazuma as he wouldn't mind being a judge of a booty competition.

"Come on, let's settle down now, there's no need to fight and have our new house guest here squirm against her will when I'd be more than happy to volunteer" said Darkness as she was blushing just heavy as her panting.

"Lady Lalatina, hath you forgotten our recent conversation" said Centorea as Darkness began to blush for an entirely different reason.

"I-I told you to never call me by my actual name" said Darkness, "Come on Darkness, just learn to embrace your actual name with pride" said Aqua trying to make her feel better, "I think it's a lovely name" mumbled Kino under her breath.

"Lala" said Yuuhi as she ran up to her first monster girl friend since she was by her bed side to comfort her before she turned undead.

"Hello little one, how are feeling knowing that death has granted you mercy" said Lala, "I feel great, I got to make some new friends and Ms. Smith was kind enough to find me a new home like she promised" said Yuuhi as Lala cracked a smile.

And just like how things were before about 10 minutes ago, the house was getting rambunctious, and any minute now Kazuma expects to have either his face buried in some bodacious bitties, or in the ground cause that's all that's been happening to him all day.

"Sigh, I need to unwind" said Kazuma, "Then allow me to be of assistance" said Leechi pulling Kazuma back onto the couch, before sitting herself on top of his lap and wrapping her arms around him.

"Sorry for being so forward, but I really like to know what you taste like" said Leechi as Kazuma's heart skipped a beat as his assumptions were true that he was definitely getting hit on and didn't had to work hard for it.

"You know, if you like my room is always opened for you to come in anytime you like" said Kazuma trying to sound cool, "Well aren't you just a sweetheart, but really I must get a taste of you now" said Leechi.

"What about with everyone here" said Kazuma, "Let them watch, besides it's not like we're doing anything wrong" said Leechi as Kazuma was hoping his intimate time would be a lot more private, but doing it in public is fine so long as he makes that point that he ain't no virgin anymore.

Leaning his head forward and closing his eyes, he was hoping to get a taste of Leechi too, but only find himself opening them wide open to the point that they were popping out of his head.

"Yee-ouch, what the hell are you doing!" exclaimed Kazuma as Leechi went and bit him on the shoulder pretty damn hard and didn't seem to let go for a few seconds.

Once she removed herself from Kazuma, he felt somewhat tired as he stared at the girl who was happily licking his blood off the corner of her lips.

"Wow, you taste delicious that I might have to take another taste of you" said Leechi looking her lips, "Oh no, no you don't Leechi" said Moskii wrapping her arms around Kazuma as he felt he was saved from being sucked dry, and not in a good way.

"At least save some for me to try" said Moskii as she licked his neck that left it itchy, before using her proboscis to suck some of Kazuma's blood.

"Aw hell why me" groaned Kazuma as he was growing increasingly more fatigue, before he found Yatsume kneeling before him and grabbed his left hand.

"Forgive me for acting rather uncouth, but you know what they say when in Rome" said Yatsume as she bit hard into Kazuma's index and middle finger and proceeded to suck out his blood as well.

"Ouch" exclaimed Kazuma in his ever increasingly fatigue state, "Girls, that's enough you shouldn't be doing this one our new home stay during our first night here" said Curie shooing her friends away.

"Aw hell, not you too" groaned Kazuma, "No worries Kazuma, just cause I'm a vampire, doesn't mean I want to suck your blood, in fact I hate the taste of it as much as the sight of it" said Curie trying to comfort him, before Kino unconsciously moved in to help as well.

"Kino" asked a loopy Kazuma as he turned to face the living fungi, to which she froze in place before letting out more of her spores in both Curie and Kazuma's faces.

"Hold still Kazuma, Ms. Smith said water will do the trick" said Aqua as she sprayed them all with so much water and enough pressure to knock them all off the couch.

"Hey Kazuma, don't you think you've copped a feel enough for one day" said a rather disgusted Aqua, since she saw the drenched Kazuma resting his hands on the boobs of both Curie and Kino.

"Oh shit this isn't- I mean that it's not what it looks like" said Kazuma as he wasn't making a good impression on 2 of his new home stays so far.

Kino was over stimulated to the point that her mind fried and passed out as Curie too weak to do anything physical and knew Kazuma didn't mean to, let out a loud 'Kya' startling Kazuma to get off of her.

"Hold still, you're almost free" said Centorea as she was help unbinding Killa as she refused to sit still while she was still entangled.

"Hurry up will you" said Killa impatiently, "Alright, but you asked for it" said Rachnee as she decided to cut her loose at long last.

End result was her being throw back and landed on something that was definitely blowing something up her ass.

"Huddah Huddah mmph mmph" said Kazuma as he was getting his face smothered by Killa's ass, to which she looked down with shock, before hopping off Kazuma quickly.

"God damn it, you went and made me look like some sort of pervert again and in front of my home stay no less" said a miffed Killa as she was ready to continue her fight with Rachnee, if not for Centorea and Darkness getting in the way and restraining her.

"Hey Kazuma onii-chan are you alright" asked a concerned Yuuhi, "Yeah, just… fine" said Kazuma as he found the ass smothering a definite highlight to his night so far.

"Hey wipe that perverted look off that face, before the neighbors decide to call the cops over disturbing the peace" said Megumin as this got Kazuma to come to his senses and defuse the situation.

KONOSUBA

After another round of misunderstandings, the Kurursu household returned back home to call it a day, as Kazuma began to enjoy the rest of his evening by eating dinner and go to his room to play some Dead Space or The Walking Dead: Survival Instinct.

It wasn't until after dinner did he realized that neither he nor anyone under his roof, did he realized that it won't even be a week before they ran out of food.

While he had no objections living off the land, this wasn't his life back in the otherworld where whatever he killed he got to eat as well.

No he was back in modern day Japan where if he were to do that without a permit, much less here in the city, he'd be called a hillbilly American.

Desperate, he took out his phone and made a phone call to the last person he'd ever call but he was desperate.

"What up NEET" said Ms. Smith cutely on the other line, "Seriously don't be calling me that already" said an irked Kazuma.

"Regardless what's up" said Ms. Smith, "Sigh, look Ms. Smith this isn't easy for me to say, but I need some help, I'm running low on food here and I haven't exactly found a job with an income to provide not only for me, but everyone here under my roof" said Kazuma.

"Well funny how you should be asking for work, since I was talking to my superiors and they wanted me to ask you if you're interested in working for us, specifically you'd be working alongside with my girls of the M.O.N. Squad" said Ms. Smith.

"Wait are you serious" asked Kazuma, "Dead serious, you see there's a lot of red tape and precautions we got to take when dealing with hostile liminial situations and liminial-human situations that we've had a bunch of close calls in the past" explained Ms. Smith

"With that being said, while you do identify as a human born male, the fact you can perform these unique magic like abilities isn't something exactly normal humans can do, so they're to deem you as the sole exception, next to your blue haired lover if she's interested, to be dispatched and personally deal with liminial-human situations when it calls for it" said Ms. Smith.

"For the record, me and Aqua aren't a thing and never will be" said Kazuma, "Whatever, the offer still stands, so interested" asked Ms. Smith.

Kazuma didn't need to think hard or much given how he's soon to be in dire need of money soon, and it was either this or take on the identity of a certain infamous thief, with him risking that Aqua, Darkness, and Megumin finally wises up and piece in the fact he's the infamous thief.

"When can I start, how much does it pay, and what are the benefits" asked Kazuma, "I'll come over and fill you in on the paperwork tomorrow over some coffee, also if you'd be a dear to make me a nice breakfast to enjoy, I'd appreciate it" said Ms. Smith as she wasn't even trying to hide her free loading side.

"Good night Ms. Smith" said Kazuma as he was ready to end the conversation abruptly and right now, "Hahaha, sweet dreams to you to NEET and newbie" said Ms. Smith before hanging up at last.

Sighing in frustration, Kazuma before to start up his game, before hearing a knock on his door.

"It's open" said Kazuma, before Aqua, Darkness, and Megumin all came into his bed room wearing their new night ware.

Aqua wore a blue long sleeve shirt and blue booty shorts as her hair was kept down, Darkness wore black leggings and tight undershirt that revealed the straps to her bra, while Megumin wore black pajama bottoms, and a plane red t-shirt.

"What's up you 3" asked Kazuma as he was already selecting to play Dead Space, "We wanted to talk to you and check on how you're feeling" said Darkness as he found the sudden act of kindness to be rather confusing.

"Alright I'll bite, what's up with you 3 that you decided to come here and chat with me" asked Kazuma, "Seriously nothing's wrong with us NEET, just wanted to check up on you out of the kindness of our heart, is that hard to ask" said Aqua.

While he didn't like to be insulted, the fact Aqua was failing from her words or actions for some sort of ulterior motive.

"For your information, I just so happen to get myself a job thanks to Ms. Smith" said Kazuma, "Wait, you're gonna be working for the government" asked Megumin.

"Damn right I am, and while we're on the subject of work, I decided that since neither of you 3 plan to move out of here anytime soon, I expect you all to find jobs ASAP and provide around the house" said Kazuma.

"What, why should we since you already got a job working for the government" asked Aqua, "Cause this is my house and my rules and if you forgot it's not only 4 mouths we have to feed, but now 11 so every bit of extra income we make here will make our lives easier" said Kazuma.

His words weren't without merit, though reality it be hard for them on a number of accounts given how their previous job occupations were adventurers, maybe not the best on a daily, but they've been known to do the impossible.

"Otherwise consider this as a 1 week notice before you're all swiftly evicted on the streets" said Kazuma, "Ok you greedy selfish NEET we'll work for the government as well" said Aqua.

"Nope, the job offer was only extended to me" said Kazuma as the last thing he wanted was Aqua to be joining them where he was certain that he was going to die and this time he wasn't going to be given another chance to live his new life again.

"So if I were you 3, I'd get ready to do some actual job hunting tomorrow alright" said Kazuma, "You're a real slave driver you know" said Megumin before she and the other girls made themselves a spot around Kazuma's bed.

"What are you 3 doing" asked Kazuma, "What can't we have some quality alone time with just us hanging out together" said Aqua as her words indeed had merit, on account since they haven't been alone with just the 4 of them these past few days.

Not to mention, the words of their new friends and neighbors next door really got in their heads to try to make a move on Kazuma, whether they had intended to or not to begin with.

"No fair" came the voice of Yuuhi with the new residence of the Satou household standing at the doorway.

"I want to hang with Kazuma onii-chan too" said Yuuhi as she made her way over and sat on Kazuma's lap just as he was about to start a new game.

"Gang way and make some room for some fast company" said Leechi as everyone shuffled their way in and found a spot in Kazuma's bed.

Calm down Kazuma, look at the bright side that you have a bunch of beautiful girls all to yourself here in your bed, thought Kazuma as this was also another highlight of his night so far.

But before he could play a new game, he notice Kino was having a hard time entering his room as she was ready to have a panic attack any minute.

"Calm down now Kino" said Kazuma as the last thing he wanted was for his room to be spewed with some day tripping pollen, but given how this is Kazuma and his new life, Kino couldn't help but spray.

"Oh come on Kino" said Killa frustratingly, "I got it guys" said Aqua as she began to spray at the general direction where Kino was, knowing that this was to lead to some more hijinxs before the nights end.

Is it too late for me to move into a pent house either somewhere in Las Vegas, thought Kazuma as he could on sigh and let whatever that is to happen tonight, happen.

Chapter 5

Morning had came to the Satou household, as Kazuma was hoping to start his day on the right foot by being able to enjoy himself some morning butter toast and tea.

Instead, he was greeted by an all too familiar face, as Leechi had snuck her way back in his room at some point but she was naked.

While a part of Kazuma was thanking god for presenting him his chance to become a man, he also felt a sense of danger as Leechi smiled at Kazuma, before wrapping her arms around him.

"Morning blood bag" said Leechi happily before digging in and bit into Kazuma's shoulder.

"Son of a bitch, why!?" exclaimed Kazuma as Leechi stayed there and sucked on Kazuma's blood for a solid minute.

"Sorry, but you know what they say about breakfast being the most important meal of the day" said Leechi with a cheeky smile, "Seriously couldn't you have gotten yourself a plate of bacon and eggs, or a mug of oatmeal" said Kazuma as he gripped his recent bite mark.

"Yeah, my diet really consist of blood, so until we get our first shipment of blood bags delivered here, you'll just have to settle with us being close, besides blood only taste better when it comes fresh from the source" explained Leechi.

"Ugh, seriously I'm going to be exaughsted before Mrs. Smith arrives here for a job interview" said Kazuma as he gripped his woozy head, "Well you're in luck blood bag, since you got a hot naked girl to greet you this morning, along with bring you a nice bowl of cereal" said Leechi as she sat up to reveal her naked body from the torso up.

While Kazuma did jolted a little because of how unusual her bare body looks like without her exo suit, Kazuma can't help but find himself aroused by the sight of Leechi, as evident by him biting down his lower lip.

"Careful now Kazuma, if you bite down to hard and bleed, I can't promise that I won't kiss you and savor the taste" said Leechi as Kazuma blushed a little over the thought of having his first kiss, even if it be under rather creepy circumstances.

"Anyways, I'll leave you be, but I expect some quality cuddle time around lunch" said Leechi, before crawling her way out of bed and out of Kazuma's room.

Seeing the bowl of cereal set on his desk, Kazuma proceeded to eat his breakfast quickly before any more shenanigans were to occur this morning.

Once he finished eating, he walked out of his room to see that Megumin and Yuuhi eating cereal while watching this week's episode of Princess Precure: Threshold.

"Morning Kazuma onii-chan" greeted Yuuhi, "Morning Yuuhi, morning Megumin" said Kazuma, "Shh, they're getting to the good part" said Megumin as she was well invested into the show.

Rolling his eyes, Kazuma walked within the kitchen to see Ms. Smith leaning on the kitchen counter drinking his coffee once more.

"Morning NEET" greeted Ms. Smith with a smile as Kazuma began to frown while sighing in defeat since he's got someone else calling him that annoying pet name.

"Please tell me you at least knocked before letting yourself in" asked Kazuma, "Is that the tone you want to take with your future boss" asked Ms. Smith while sipping her coffee.

"Sigh, let's just get down to business" said Kazuma as both made their way and sat at the kitchen table.

"Right, well since we've already gotten most of your personal information when you signed the house stay agreement papers, I took the liberty to skip a lot of the boring paper work" said Ms. Smith.

"Oh, thank you" said Kazuma, "Don't mention it, like seriously" said Ms. Smith as Kazuma felt he was doing something illegal within the government, and this is before he was even hired.

"Ok… so what do you need from me now" asked Kazuma, "Well once you get to the office later on this week, we'll conduct a physical test, but right now I need you to answer a series of questions, which really just serves as a formality" said Ms. Smith.

"Have you ever been convicted of a felon" asked Ms. Smith, "No, never in my life" said Kazuma as he half lied over how he was back in the other world, but here in Japan, he has a clean record.

"Have you any prejudicial views" asked Ms. Smith, "Just towards anyone who acts like a self righteous, self important jackass" said Kazuma as this got Ms. Smith to smile.

"Ok, have you any physical conditions that may prevent you from working" asked Ms. Smith, "None what so ever" said Kazuma.

"Have you any psychological trauma that may prevent you from working" asked Ms. Smith, "…No" said Kazuma as he'd be lying to himself since he's been through a lot.

"Mm hmm, what would you say is your greatest skill that you have that you may provide from joining us" asked Ms. Smith, "Being the most level headed individual even in the most stressful and impossible situation" answered Kazuma as he recalls the many times of while he did die, it was to ensure victory towards his party.

"What would you say is your biggest flaw" asked Ms. Smith, "Sigh, being suckered into or somehow being convinced to take on some of the most difficult challenges the world has had to throw at me" said Kazuma honestly since a lot of his plans that got him either killed or in high debt was because he was suckered into things last minute.

"Final question, what is your culinary skills like" asked Ms. Smith, "Are you serious" asked Kazuma.

"This really counts more than 80% of the questions I asked you if you plan to work with me and the girls" said Ms. Smith as Kazuma was left with his mouth gaping wide.

"Honestly the best I can cook you besides a cup of instant noodles is maybe a box of mac n cheese" said Kazuma as Ms. Smith smirk fell, before jotting down that last bit of info.

"Right, I'll bring this in to my superiors, expect me to come back in the coming up days to let you know if you got the job or not, also if possible true wearing a suit when that day does arrive" said Ms. Smith as her phone began to ring.

"You reached Ms. Smith" she said in a sing song manner as shouting could be heard from the other end of the phones extension.

"Right, I'll be there ASAP Zombina, just do what you girls do best and I'll be there to help speak out for any legal trouble and concerns" said Ms. Smith.

"Everything good" said Kazuma, "Yeah, just the same kind of mess, just on a different day" said Ms. Smith as she began to finish up the remaining contents in her cup.

"Till then Kazuma" said Ms. Smith with a smile as she made her way out of the Satou household.

"So I take it everything went well" asked Darkness as she came out around the corner, "Yeah, I guess so" said Kazuma as he felt uncertain how fast this interview went, especially since this is government job.

"Well that's good to hear" said Darkness as she made her way into the kitchen to make herself some breakfast, but also to take in to see how much product they have left to eat for the time being till they get jobs.

"I should definitely hurry and try to submit my application at that construction site" said Darkness as she began to heat herself some toast.

"Yeah, I'm a bit concern to" said Kazuma as he turned around to see how his house became lively with mouths to feed and wants to be sated.

"Well, I don't know about you, but I think I'm gonna go off and test my luck out somewhere" said Kazuma as he approach the door, "Kazuma, you're already leaving" asked Aqua as she came out from the halls with Yatsume and Moskii following her from behind.

"Yeah, I'll be back before sun down" said Kazuma as she slid on his shoes, before walking out the front door.

"Hey Darkness, is everything alright with Kazuma" asked Aqua, "I'm not sure" admitted Darkness as they looked at the front door.

Hearing all of this got the attention of Killa, who had been leaning on the wall around the corner, and after what happened last night, she wanted to make a better strong impression on her home stay host.

Going back towards her room, she opened the window and flew out and began to make chase for Kazuma, who had already walked down a few blocks and was currently bent down to pick up a coin.

Landing but a few feet away from Kazuma, he turned his head back the moment he heard wings flapping rapidly.

"Hey Killa, what are you doing here" asked Kazuma, "I heard you were troubled and decided to follow you and keep you company" said Killa as this definitely surprised Kazuma.

To be fair, she proved his suspicions right the moment she snapped at the sight of Rachnee and was ready to rip her head off, so seeing her relax and considerate was a surprising change of character.

"Oh um, thanks Killa" said Kazuma as he decided to lead her into town where they remained silent towards one another.

It wasn't until they got further into town did Kazuma notice an unusual pattern of people avoiding them to the point that they walked on the damn road, before realizing that they were mainly trying to avoid Killa.

Peaking his head back, he saw that she held an intense glare that one wrong action and he was certain she was going to turn the whole area into thin red paste and blood sausage.

Not wanting to be held accountable as an accessory to murder and thinking he could make an attempt to put her down and looked like a hero to the public's eye, Kazuma slowed his pace down to walk side by side with Killa.

In return, Killa notice this and her intense murderous glare softened by a lot as they continued to walk down the streets together.

Eventually, they arrived at their destination, which just so happened to be the local Pachinko parlor.

"What are we doing here" asked Killa as she's heard of these places, but never figured she'd set foot in a place like this any time soon.

"I'm gonna level with you, me and the other girls whom you met yesterday, none of us are currently employed upon moving here, that and the fact we could run out of food and other necessities before my first pay check doesn't help me sleep at night" said Kazuma.

"Oh man, I'm sorry to hear that Kazuma" said Killa, "Thank you, and while it's neither ideal, nor really responsible, I'm desperate for cash for us to keep us afloat" said Kazuma as they entered the Pachinko parlor.

"So here's to us having a better living situation until I get that job from Ms. Smith" said Kazuma as he began to exchange the single 500 Yen coin for the Pachinko tokens.

"Kazuma, I don't think I have to tell you this, but places like these are based heavily on your luck" said Killa before he turned and smiled at her.

"Then it's a good thing I'm the luckiest guy on earth then" said Kazuma with full confidence before sitting down in front of one of the machines and tested his luck.

KONOSUBA

In a span of 20 minutes, Kazuma left the Pachinko parlor with a new Kotatsu that'll be sent home, a clothing gift voucher to up 55,000 yen at Gentlemen's Warehouse, tickets to feed an entire family, up to twelve, to an all you can eat buffet that can be used at any time, a pre-order copy of Rock Hero 5: Live full set, and some tickets to be used at the local market's lottery this afternoon.

"Well, I think this'll cover us for enjoying a nice full dinner tonight" said Kazuma said with a smile as him and Killa walked to the local market.

"I'm honestly surprised as to how you were able to win some pretty niche stuff" said Killa, "Hey if you thought this was amazing, wait till we test our luck once we set foot in the market" said Kazuma as if on cue, his luck naturally showed off.

Instantly confetti erupted above them as the workers there gathered around to congratulate the duo.

"Congratulations for being our 100th customers today" said one of the workers as bells were rung, hands began to clap, and the congratulatory cheer ringed the ears of Killa and Kazuma.

"For being our 100th customers for the day, you've earned 150 pounds of rice to take home with you" said a different worker, as Kazuma could smile knowing they'd at least be going home with some food.

"I also got these tickets here to redeem here in today's lottery" said Kazuma as the crowd began to lead them to the wheel of fortune.

Within the 5 spins he made, he was able to leave the market with a new bike, another 100 pounds of rice, about 2 large barrels filled with Sake, something he wished he didn't had earned, a gift card to enables them to free pizza for a month, and finally a 5 ticket vacation to Hawaii, which he considers the least valuable to his situation.

"Wow, remind me to take you to like Amsterdam or Las Vegas so we can rob those places blind" said Killa as they both walked home knowing that their food situation has been covered for the time being.

"Honestly that does sound tempting, but the last thing I want is to make a living as a world famous gambler since I'm more likely to get myself killed in a career path like that" said Kazuma.

"Still, doesn't mean we couldn't do that once in a while though" said Killa as Kazuma could only roll his eyes and smile.

In spite of her scary exterior, and what he witnessed from last night, Killa had proven herself to be not only great company, but really a girl with a good heart.

"Hey, look at the freak over there" said someone standing in front of Kazuma and Killa.

As for who said that, it was the infamous rude couple that members of the Kurusu household were familiar with, though this time they decided to pick a fight with Killa and Kazuma.

"Which one, the scrub with the walking bug, or the walking bug with the scrub" said the man before both laughed with snide.

"You want to say that again tough guy" said Killa as she began to open up her claws and lightly hover off the ground, but was held back by Kazuma.

"Oh~, we got the ugly bug angry" taunted the woman as both continued to laugh towards at the duo.

"Kazuma, let go of me right now so I can beat the shit out of these assholes" said Killa, "Calm down Killa, do you want to get deported" said Kazuma trying to prevent someone under his household to be deported for the wrong reasons.

"Yeah listen to the scrawny scrub and calm your damn titties" said the woman as the rude couple approach them, "And for threatening to hurt us, we'll just take this as payment to shut our lips" said the man as he pilfered the bike.

"Let's ride baby" said the woman, before both began to ride out of sight.

"Grr, I hate bigoted assholes like those" said Killa as she wouldn't let the matter go, "Then let me take care of things from here" sighed Kazuma as he digged into his pocket and pulled out a rubber band.

"What are doing" asked Killa as she was flaring up a little towards Kazuma, "Just sit back and watch" said Kazuma as he began to take and fire.

"Snipe!" exclaimed Kazuma as Killa witnessed how a little rubber band went flying at such great lengths and speed to hit the rude man in the cheek.

"Ah, what the hell" said the man, "Hey baby, lookout" said the rude woman as they heading towards running traffic.

Having to act and move fast, the rude man turned the corner so sharp that he didn't realized the lane garbage on the floor, resulting in him hitting it and getting him and his girls sent flying off the bike and into the back of a garbage truck.

Walking around the corner, Killa finally calmed down and began to laugh as Kazuma had a wide eye smile.

Walking down the street to pick up the garbage left on the ground, he tossed it over to cover the rude couple as the pickup driver came from out of the driver's seat.

"What was all that" asked the man, "Sorry, the boss had some last minute garbage he wanted me to take out for him" lied Kazuma as the garbage man accepted the answer before driving off.

"Kazuma, you're so bad" said Killa as she was still laughing, "What can I say, I maybe bad at being good, but I'm good at being bad" said Kazuma before he was enveloped in bosom filled hug by Killa.

"Thank you for defending me like that Kazuma, I really appreciate it" said Killa as she began to blush a little, though not as much as Kazuma as he got not only bosom full, but a whiff of her scent.

She smells like honey and morning dew, thought Kazuma as before she pulled him away.

"Right, we should get back home" said Kazuma, "Yeah we should hero" said Killa as Kazuma could only smile at being called that, since he never has been called that before, though to Killa it was her new pet name for Kazuma.

KONOSUBA

After arriving home at long last, Kazuma and Killa shared of their exploits while they talked it over rice and tea for lunch, which needless to say left everyone impressed.

"Hey, how come you never acted chivalrous and defended me in my times of need Kazuma" whined Aqua, "Cause doing so either will cause more problems or it's because you shot yourself in the foot and deserved what was coming to you" said Kazuma.

"So mean" cried Aqua before she began to cry, as Killa enjoyed the envious attention she was getting from the other girls.

"So the blood bag really did that, all for you" said Leechi as she was impressed as to how badass their home stay host really is, "Damn right he did, and you know what, I only regret not having video or a photo to show you the looks on those jackasses he totally owned" said Killa.

"Oh my, it seems we should be lucky to be under the roof of such a gentleman" said Yatsume, "And yet you can't help but wonder his relationship or association towards those 3" said Moskii as they all turned their heads to see the mess from the original members of team Kazuma.

Aqua was left crying, Darkness was holding herself tightly and had that same perverted look and Kazuma was pulling on Megumin's cheek.

"You know, that does leave the question as to how they all met" said Yatsume, "Meh, we can ask them later, right now I think me and the blood bag are a bit over due for some quality spooning" said Leechi.

"Hey, save some for me" said Moskii as both went towards Kazuma, "Aren't you gonna go and get your fill of blood" asked Killa towards Yatsume.

"I'm fine thank you, besides I got an anchovy pizza coming soon" said Yatsume, before seeing that Curie and Yuuhi came back home with Lala and Kimihito in toe.

"Now don't be a stranger and feel free to come by should you feel woozy" said Kimihito towards Curie, "Thank you Kimihito, you've been utterly kind to me" said Curie as she had an iron filled lunch.

"Kazuma onii-chan, welcome back" said Yuuhi, "Hey guys, how's it been" asked Kazuma.

"Severly ill, the young scrabus corpus was brave to venture out for death to give them assistance" said Lala as Kazuma gave her a silent derp face.

"She means that Yuuhi came here as soon as Curie passed out due to her being anemic, so Lala carried her over and I made her an iron enriched lunch" said Kimihito.

"Ok, this is great to know" said Kazuma as Curie didn't bring such a serious matter up to him before.

"Well, we'll see you guys around" said Kimihito as they began to walk out the door.

"Hey Kazuma, are you alright" asked Darkness the moment they left as Kazuma looked exaughsted after feeding Leechi and Moskii, "Honestly no" said Kazuma as he began to fall forward and landed in Darkness' breast.

"K-Ka-Kazuma what are you doing" asked Darkness with a blush on her face as she hoped him suffering from blood loss was but a ploy into getting him to feel her up in more ways than one.

"Hey stupid NEET, get off of Darkness" said Aqua as she pushed Kazuma off where he landed back towards Moskii and Leechi.

"Hang in there blood bag, we got you" said Leechi as Kazuma began to slip from their grip and as he fell down, he managed to pull down their tops, revealing their breast.

"Kazuma, you brute what the hell" exclaimed Aqua as she felt more irked he never pulled such bold stunts back when it was just the 3 of them, and now the goddess was confused as to why she's acting jelly.

"It's cool, it's the least we can do for the guy after we had our fill from him" said Leechi, "Like hell it's ok to be parading about with your boobs out" said Megumin as she felt angry that Kazuma had managed to surround himself with such bodacious hotties since their short time being here, especially since she was severly lacking.

"Girls, I think we should calm down and focus more on getting Kazuma back to health" said Curie as Kazuma laid on the floor and laughed a little in his delirious state.

"Heh, boobies" said Kazuma as he was to drained to defuse whatever shenanigans were going on now.

Chapter 6

After surviving another night of blood loss, Kazuma had woken up hours later with a luke warm pizza with Japanese mayo and cheese set aside for him.

Once he decided to refuel himself over much lost blood, he came to realize that he goofed for over eating and filling himself with sugar and caffeine himself, since it was approaching 11 p.m.

And seeing how everyone had practically unwind for the night, he decided to say 'fuck it' and go back into his room to play some video games in peace while being courteous enough to put on his headset.

He decided what better game to play this late at night none other than Deus Ex: Mankind Divided, since he'll be essentially in this line of work soon enough.

As Kazuma continued to play, he was given a sudden in game message that came from someone called 'Death_Bringer_Flynt'.

Seeing this as a strange sign he decided to ignore the message before 5 minutes later he got another from the same person, and when he ignored that one he got another, and another.

Eventually having enough, Kazuma decided to read the contents of the message to see that the most recent told him to look out his window.

Looking out his window, Kazuma nearly had a heart attack to see that it was Lala standing outside his window.

"Gah, what the hell, Lala!" exclaimed Kazuma as he went to open his window to talk to the Dullahan from next door.

"Fear not mortal, for Death has not come to reap your soul" said Lala as she tried to play 'cool' like she always did, but Kazuma just about had enough of these sort of antics since his visit at the Crimson Demon Village.

So it surprised no one, when he was slowly closing his window on Lala as she decided to drop the act.

"No wait, please Kazuma I need your help" said Lala as Kazuma decided to give the girl the benefit of the doubt by hearing her what she had to say for the last time.

"Listen, by any chance can you let me inside, it's pretty cold tonight and I've been out here for hours now" said Lala as she began to tremble before Kazuma.

"Alright, but you gotta promise me to not only keep your voice down, but also drop the middle school syndrome act for the rest of the night" said Kazuma, "Deal" said Lala as Kazuma nudged his head for her to come around the front door.

Once inside, Kazuma decided to make the girl some hot tea as she sat in the kitchen table.

"So want to explain to me why you were standing outside my window at 12:30 in the morning" ask Kazuma as he began to heat up some water, "Well, you see I'm a Dullahan and therefore I'm the Grim Reaper by right" said Lala.

"Hey, what did I say before letting you in" said Kazuma, "No it's the truth, it's heavily believed in by not only my people, but from my native home country, that we Dullahan's are messengers of death, in fact we're generally present around those who are about to die, like free undertakers" explained Lala.

"Ok, I'll take your word for it" said Kazuma as he clearly had some studying to do if he truly wanted to learn about the monster girls that roam earth now.

"So tell me, exactly why were you waiting outside my window" asked Kazuma, "Well like I said about us Dullahan's being associated to the Grim Reaper" said Lala as Kazuma took a minute to take her words into account.

"Hold on, did you thought I was going to kick the bucket a few hours" asked Kazuma worriedly, "Well, yeah pretty much" said Lala, "Ok this is great to know".

Realizing he legit could have died from blood loss meant that Kazuma really had to set up limitations or some sort of like swap schedule with Darkness, Megumin, and Aqua.

"Well, I'm not dead, so please don't be coming for my soul anytime soon, ok" said Kazuma as he felt like being near Lala was no different than being with Aqua.

"Well that's the thing, I kinda sorta locked myself out of the house because I forgot my keys while I was watching over you" said Lala as Kazuma just felt he definitely heard something that a stalker would say, granted a cute stalker, but a stalker none the less.

"So it was only dumb luck you were able to notice me playing videogames" said Kazuma, "Yeah" said Lala as she was finally handed some tea by Kazuma, who was left perplexed.

"Wait hold on, I was playing games, there was no way you could've message me unless you were hooked up to a gaming console as well" said Kazuma, "Oh well I just connected my gamer account to my smart phone" said Lala.

"Wait you can do that" asked Kazuma, "Yeah, for a while now" said Lala as Kazuma definitely had to catch up on some of the other little things in between he was gone from Japan and back in the other world where he was an adventurer.

"So there's no way for you to get inside" asked Kazuma, "Well I had a bit of a stern talk from Centorea from the last time I did this, she said that my punishment will be to spend the night out" said Lala innocently.

"If it's alright with you Kazuma, do you think you could allow me refuge under your roof tonight" asked Lala meekly with a blush as Kazuma was normally not easy to be swayed by antics like these, like ever.

In fact Kazuma was like 99% certain that if he were to choose to lock her out, and if Lala were to tell her roommates and their neighbors next door, they probably won't be that mad at him.

However he felt the girls here under his roof will have different opinions regarding him, and the last thing he needed was for these 7 cute single girls to start viewing him in the same manner as the other 3.

"Sigh, just for tonight" said Kazuma as he began to return back to his room with the intent on grabbing her a spare pillow and his blanket as he has slept many nights in nothing but his track suit in the past before.

Unfortunately what he didn't expect was for Lala's body, and I mean just her body to be coming from behind and throwing herself on Kazuma.

"Lala, what are you doing!" exclaimed Kazuma as the Dullahan began to lift a leg up as she pushed Kazuma down on his bed.

Utterly confused and caught by surprise, Lala's body continue to move her body in closer towards Kazuma as he just froze as he felt her cold thighs wrapped around his right leg or her boobs being pressed into his chest.

Is this how I'm going to finally to become a man, thought Kazuma as he wasn't entirely freaked out he was going to do it with a girl's body, like just her body, which wasn't an entire bad thing since if he could do the same thing with say someone like Darkness or Aqua, then hell yeah by all means.

"Gah, unhand Kazuma this instant you" said Lala as she managed to roll her head back into Kazuma's room.

"Lala, I'm grateful that you want to repay for giving you a place to crash at tonight, and more so I promise to be a gentlemen about what comes next" said Kazuma as Lala understood the implication well that she began to blush a deep crimson red.

"No, this isn't what it looks like!" exclaimed Lala as her body began to remove her shirt to reveal a blue on black striped bra with black straps as she began to undo the hooks on the back.

"Please Kazuma I beg of you to please put my head on my body, before I scream so loud that it'll wake up from everyone within this household and the one next door" said Lala as that snapped Kazuma back into reality.

"Steal" said Kazuma as he got Lala's head back in his hand before putting her back on her body.

Unfortunately the damaged had been done by her body as her bra came off to reveal some bright pink nipples on her normally blue body.

"Can I just say that you have some nice boobs" said Kazuma as his brain just farted at what was definitely an embarrassing moment for Lala as she was having a hard time making eye contact with him.

"Thank you" said Lala as she too just had a brain fart while slowly covering her nips, "Think you can lone me a shirt to wear tonight".

While Kazuma had only limited amount of clothes for the time being, he did had his tracksuit jacket and pants on still.

Getting up from out of bed, he began to remove his jacket while blushing a little as he did so.

Why does this have to feel so embarrassing, it's not like we're gonna do it, are we, thought Kazuma as he felt a certain member of his getting just as excited as he is.

"Hey… mind turning the other way around" said Kazuma as Lala did so as she too began to blush.

Why does it feel like we're doing something naughty, unless of course he still plans on us doing it, thought Lala as steam came out of her head and neck hole over the thought of doing it with her neighbor.

Eventually Lala felt the sudden shifted wait as she saw that Kazuma had removed his entire tracksuit, just for her to wear tonight.

"Sorry that it can't be helped, but I'm in dire need to go clothes shopping and those are the only set of clothes I have that are comfortable" said Kazuma as he refrained from looking at Lala at the moment, giving her a chance to get change.

Unknown to Kazuma as he was trying hard to not look at her and hide his son, Lala saw his reaction from head to toe from a mirror that was perfectly angled for her to see.

"Th-thanks Kazuma" said Lala as she began to hurry up and dress herself comfortably while trying to avoid the thought of how she was now alone in the room of a boy nearly naked like him and that anything could happen that may result in them having sex.

Once fully dressed, Lala tried her hardest to not look at Kazuma from the waist down through the mirror.

"You're ok to turn around now" said Lala, "Right then" said Kazuma as he began to make his way around the bed without exposing himself to his neighbor.

Once he was in the clear, Kazuma began to crawl in bed with Lala next to him, which was not what he had in mind from the beginning.

Now once more in an awkward position, Kazuma's brain decided to shut down as he stared at Lala with her back at him.

"Hey Kazuma" said Lala, "Mm, yeah" said Kazuma as his heart was pounding over what Lala might say to him right now, and he was really conflicted as to whether he hoped she might suggest they do it, or not.

"Thank you, I mean it" said Lala as she adverted her eyes from making contact with Kazuma, "Yeah it's not a big deal" said Kazuma as both remained in bed together silent from wanting to say a thing, while remained awake over how much both of their hearts were pounding up until 3 in the morning, where they would finally get sleepy and hope they can put this behind them tomorrow.

Of course, who's to say what tomorrow has in store for not only these 2, but those in the Satou and Kurusu household.

Chapter 7

When morning had arrived, Kazuma felt he was sandwiched between 2 bodies as he slowly began to open his eyes, before they popped open.

On his left was Lala, who had gone and zipped down the zipper of the tracksuit she was wearing and if it wasn't for her bra, had wrapped his arm real close deep within her bosom.

The other was Leechi in her al natural state as she was awake and running her fingers on his chest.

"Well aren't you the popular one in the neighborhood" said Leechi as Kazuma was ready to yelp in surprise, but she hushed him by quickly placing her fingers on his lips.

"I would advise against it, last thing you want is for a bunch of other girls to see you in a compromising position and get jealous, besides I think she's really into you" said Leechi towards Lala's body as she pressed herself closer to Kazuma.

God, mom, dad, thank you for giving me a chance to be born and live in the moment right now, thought Kazuma as he was now feeling the popular harem phase he always dreamt of.

"Besides I think it be rude to wake her up so suddenly" said Leechi as she licked her lips as Kazuma began to pale a little, "Oh no" eep Kazuma.

Kurusu household

The morning was going like how it did like every morning, everyone would get up, with half of them dragging themselves out of bed dressed for the day to even taking a morning shower, with Kimihito cooking everyone at home breakfast.

"Morning darling" said a drowsy Miia as she slumped on the kitchen table, having yet to fully waken up.

"Morning Miia, breakfast will be ready soon" said Kimihito with a smile, "Miia, it's rude table manners to be sleeping on the kitchen table like so" said Centorea having come back from her morning jog.

"Cry my a river" pouted Miia, "No, as a lady in front of milord it is rather uncouth and unlady like to maintain such poor posture" said Centorea, "It's find Cerea, Miia just isn't awake till later in the day especially during this time of year" said Kimihito has he began to serve Miia breakfast.

"As you wish milord" said Cerea as Kimihito handed her a bowl of rice porridge and diced apples.

"Girls come and get it" called Kimihito, "Sweet breaky" said Papi as she and Suu rushed to the table and made a seat for themselves as they were served bacon eggs and toast with butter.

"Does anyone know where Mero, Rachnee, and Lala are" asked Kimihito, "I'm right above you honey" said Rachnee as she was crawling from the ceiling.

"Morning Rachnee" greeted Kimihito, "Morning" said Rachnee as she joined everyone back on ground level and grabbed a cup of hot tea and toast.

"So all that leaves are Mero and Lala" said Cerea, "I'm right here everyone" said Mero as she came in rolling in her wheels.

"Alright, we're all here except for Lala" said Kimihito as he was just about ready to wake her up and check on her, "If I recall I think she never returned home last night" said Rachnee surprising Kimihito.

"Wait, why" asked Kimihito, "If I recall she said something on the lines of Death is needed next door to oversee the fallen Sheppard of Fire, or something like that" said Rachnee.

"Oh no" said Kimihito as he worried that she might annoy or scare her neighbors from hanging out with her, "More so I told her from the last time she did this that if she forgot her keys, she better be ready to sleep outside" said Cerea as Kimihito recalled them having a follow up to that conversation.

"Sigh, I better check on her that she hasn't caught a cold or something" said Kimihito with concern as he began to take off his apron, "I shall assist you milord" said Cerea as both began to make their way outside the house.

Upon walking towards the door steps of the Satou household, they heard the sound of Kazuma screaming as both began to dread over how not only embarrassing it was on their behalf but how they're to make amends with their neighbor.

In Kazuma's Room

"Mm, delicious as always blood bag" cooed Leechi as she began to lick her lips, "Seriously I passed out from blood loss last night" cried Kazuma as he gripped the area where Leechi bit him this time.

As he was distracted ready to scold Leechi, he felt the hands of Lala turning his head to face her headless body, where Kazuma was certain that if her head was on and was more honest, they'd had a moment right now.

Especially since Lala's body began to place her hand on where he was bitten which was around his collar region.

"Lala" gulped Kazuma as he felt conflicted since her body was clearly more honest than her head, speaking of which.

"You what are you doing at this hour, and to think your actions caused our neighbor to scream at this hour" accused Lala to her body, before she released her hold of Kazuma and began to use hands and body gestures to explain that she was innocent.

"If you didn't cause him to scream, than who did" demanded Lala, "That would be me, sorry" said Leechi innocently with her tongue sticking out.

"Wait, what is she doing here" asked Lala, "I was just getting my breakfast is all, especially since he had a lot of blood and energy this morning" said Leechi.

"Ok that's a lie" said Kazuma as he legit passed out from blood loss the night before and stayed up late last night, "Trust me it isn't, don't believe me look at your still active son" said Leechi as pointed at his tent in the bed.

Hearing this not only got Kazuma, but Lala to blush as Lala's body was curious to see as she lifted the covers for not only the body but also Lala herself to see.

"So let me just thank you for making our blood bag here not only happy but full of vigor" said Leechi as Lala was at a loss for words to say anything as Kazuma could do anything but remain in silent.

Dear god can this get any more embarrassing, thought as he looked towards his doorway to see that Killa, Aqua, and Darkness had witnessed the whole thing.

"Oh my Kazuma, truly your lust has no limits, and to especially think you were serious to not only toss me aside, but also steal one of your neighbors girls" said Darkness.

"Say the word hero and I'll gladly clobber them both" said Killa as her sleepwear was black leggings with a single yellow streak on the right side of her leg, and top portion of a babydoll set, with their being more coverage around the bosom area.

"Kazuma, you truly are a perverted NEET who's not only scum, but a degenerate" said Aqua as she felt creep out by him as Killa didn't approve of the insult.

"You want to say that again you blue haired bitch" said Killa as Aqua began to cower, "Kazuma, this overgrown wasp is going to hurt me" cried Aqua.

"Who the hell are you calling a wasp you bitch" said Killa as she swung to hit Aqua, but the water goddess was quick enough to duck before running towards Kazuma, since in spite of her insults is dependent on him to save her ass.

Jumping towards the trio, Aqua caused everyone to get knocked out of Kazuma's bed as they were all crashed on the floor in a compromising position

Walking around got Darkness and Killa to blush as they saw that Kazuma got both his hands copping a feel of both Lala and Leechi, with Lala's body trying to help move his hand under her bra as Lala herself was too embarrassed to say anything as Leechi was blushing a little, but was smiling over Kazuma taking the initiative.

As for Aqua, she just so happened to be straddling on top of Kazuma, and given the situation and simulation he was feeling, it would be a surprise if he didn't had a hard on, case it point, Aqua definitely felt it and was well aware what it was.

Looking down to face Kazuma, both of them began to blush heavily before Aqua decided to act accordingly, and that was to scream louder than Kazuma to not only wake everyone else up, but get their neighbors from next door their attention.

KONOSUBA

Once things settled down, everyone was gathered in the living room, including Kimihito and everyone from next door, and let it be said that it makes Kazuma feel more embarrassed and uncomfortable that this had to explode on new heights.

"I can never get married anymore, I can never be a goddess anymore" said Aqua as she was being comforted by her new best friend Miia as she was hugging her tightly.

"There, there, I think you should consider it a good sign that he finds you attractive like that, more so if you felt that you virginity was taken, you should demand he takes responsibility" said Miia as those who'd listen were concerning as to how things might end in the long run.

"Well, I'm just glad things weren't terribly dire" said Cerea as Lala sat between her and Kimihito.

"Agreed, and Kazuma if it means anything I appreciate you for looking out for Lala for the night" said Kimihito, "Yeah, don't mention it" said Kazuma as he really meant it since a lot has happened these past 8 hours.

"Well we should all be heading back home, Lala don't you have something to say" said Kimihito, "Yes, Kazuma I appreciate your kindness for allowing me shelter last night" said Lala.

"You're welcome Lala" said Kazuma with a smile as she began to pull out her phone, "Any chance you want to exchange gamer info so we could maybe play online sometimes" asked Lala.

"Yeah, that be awesome" said Kazuma as began to take out his phone and after a few minutes, had finally gotten Lala's information.

"Billionaire Adventurer" said Lala out loud as she found that to be an interesting name, "What's wrong it" asked Kazuma as only he and the original members in his party understood the inside joke to that name.

"Nothing, just different" said Lala, "And Death Bringer Flynt is common" said Kazuma as he felt that she just want and over dramatized her name, "Nope that happens to be the name of her husbando" said Rachnee resting a hand on Lala's head, causing her to blush a little from that revealed secret.

"Do tell" said Kazuma as he found it interesting, "Please don't" squeaked Lala, "Yeah she changed her gamer tag to reference her husbando from the borderlands series, what was it again" asked Rachnee trying to play innocent as all ears fell on Lala as she felt she had no choice but to share it with her neighbors now.

"Zane Ferocity Deathbringer Sharpshooter Careful Charisma Charm Lucky Danger Eulogy Flynt" said Lala as everyone could clearly read how embarrassing it was, and not wanting for Aqua to say something insensitive he decided to change the subject a little.

"No way is that a name to a borderlands character, also Borderlands 3 came out" asked Kazuma, "Yeah a few years ago" said Kimihito as he knew what Kazuma did and decided to play along.

"Remind me to get a copy so we can play soon" said Kazuma with a smile as Lala looked at him with hopeful eyes before they all finally left.

Once they had left, everyone went on to start their day and began to eat breakfast as Kazuma began to get himself dressed for the day.

"Kazuma onii-chan where are you going" asked Yuuhi, "I'm off to get myself some new clothes that'll fit my new job, you know dress for success and all that" said Kazuma.

"Can I come with you" asked Yuuhi as Kazuma really saw no objection, plus this was exactly what he always wanted, a cute younger sister to follow him around.

"Yeah, come along" said Kazuma as Yuuhi ran to get her shoes on as he continued to get dressed.

Upon arriving to the front door, Kazuma realized that their quality time alone together will be filled with Aqua accompanying them.

"Aqua, what are you doing here" said Kazuma as he was unamused, "Stupid NEET you owe me a nice day out like you did with that wasp girl, especially for what you did to me" said Aqua as she wouldn't take no for an answer.

"So long as you promise to behave yourself and not do something to rack us up on some heavy debt, that's fine" said Kazuma, "Excuse you but I am a goddess, and if anyone has couth and manners it's me" said Aqua as she began to rant.

"Aqua onee-chan, is she really a goddess" asked Yuuhi as Kazuma had long since rehearsed the answer to this question.

"She's not, she's crazy" said Kazuma with a straight face as they began to walk into town.

Time Skip

Once they finally got into town, the first place they hit was Gentlemen's Warehouse with Kazuma trying on different suits and outfits to the amusement of Aqua and Yuuhi.

"Ok, how about this one" said Kazuma as he was dressed up like a certain Italian Don, all the way to the open long white scarf.

"Hahahahahaha, Kazuma who do you think you're cosplaying as" laughed Aqua as Kazuma wasn't amused, "Excuse you but I'm trying to dress to impress here" said Kazuma defensively.

"To who, Marlon Brando" continued to laugh Aqua as Kazuma grew an every enlarging tic mark on his head.

"I think you look cool Kazuma onii-chan" said Yuuhi, "See, can't you be supportive as Yuuhi here" said Kazuma, "You know she's only sparing you of your feelings right" said Aqua bluntly.

"Ok seriously, what's with the 3rd degree" asked Kazuma as he regretted bringing Aqua with him since they first met in the heavenly realm.

"Need I remind you how you tainted me and a part of my chastity this morning" exclaimed Aqua as Kazuma began to blush a little and rushed over to cover Yuuhi's ears.

"Seriously calm down we're in public you idiot" said Kazuma, "Hmpf, you're actions towards a goddess will not go unpunished you NEET" said Aqua.

"You do realize that I'm far from a NEET you free loader, speaking of which have you got any call backs from any of the jobs you've applied for" asked Kazuma.

"Not yet" admitted Aqua as Kazuma began to give her his fiendish smirk, "Well aren't you the hypocrite now" said Kazuma smugly before removing his hands off Yuuhi's ears.

"I'll be back to try something else on" said Kazuma as he entered the changing room, leaving Yuuhi to hang with a grumbling Aqua.

"Stupid NEET, he should be taking care and providing for me till I can return back to the heavenly realm" grumbled Aqua with a pout as tears were welling in her eyes.

"Hey Aqua onee-chan why are you always fighting Kazuma onii-chan" asked Yuuhi as witnessing them fight left her with a lot of questions in regards to their friendship and true relationship.

"Because that stupid NEET ruined my life cause he got himself killed in the most hilarious way that could be possibly conceived" said Aqua, "I can still hear you through these curtains you know" exclaimed Kazuma from the other side.

Knowing that Aqua was crazy, as according to what Darkness, Kazuma, and Megumin said, Yuuhi still wanted to hear things from Aqua's perspective just to get a good idea of their relationship.

"so wait, how did you both met" asked Yuuhi, "Shortly after that NEET died and was sent to the heavenly realm, I offered him a selection of legendary skills and weapons for him to use, but instead he chose me out of spite" said Aqua.

"Only cause you were acting like a total jerk and either laughed and or belittled me that I only selected you out of impulsive spite" said Kazuma he got out to reveal his all green suit and tie attire.

"Kazuma are you just trying to make me laugh" chuckled Aqua as Kazuma begrudgingly admitted his outfit was a bad idea.

"Sigh, just trying to stand out a little too much I guess" said Kazuma as he huffed his way back into the changing room.

"So you and Kazuma onii-chan knew each other forever" asked Yuuhi, "To an extent, I mean I've seen the guy come home with wads of cash, and him spoiling us and the entire guild like there's no tomorrow and he has saved me from those slimy smelly frogs I guess" said Aqua.

"So why do you guys fight" asked Yuuhi, "Because he doesn't provide or spoil me with the life style that I'm use to and is very stingy with his money, if not lazy to do any money bringing work" said Aqua.

"Hey, that's all in the past and I think you should over look it, knowing that I'm over looking yours and Darkness and Megumin's freeloading butt back at home, besides you 3 weren't exactly on the guest list of my new life as a bachelor" said Kazuma as he was dressed in an all black suit.

"So appreciate the fact that you came and caused grief in my life, besides you're easy to manage" said Kazuma, "I am so~ not" said Aqua as she stuck her tongue out.

"Ah-ha" said Kazuma as he took out his smart phone to play back what Aqua just said, "You said it not me, now please behave yourself and I won't share this back to everyone at home".

"Now what do you 2 think" asked Kazuma , "Acceptable I guess" said Aqua as she didn't laugh much less snicker.

"Alright then, let's check out and get ourselves some pizza" said Kazuma as he began to change out of his work clothes so they can go on with their day.

Once back on the streets, they were ready to walk back home before Kazuma felt a set of arms wrapping around him.

"About time I found you" said Zombina with a cheeky smile as she had wrapped her arms around his neck.

"Zombina onee-chan" said Yuuhi, "And here's the one I was looking for especially" said Zombina as she went and patted Yuuhi on the head.

"Zombina, what are you doing here" asked Kazuma, "I came here to pick this kid up for her weekly transfusion" said Zombina.

"What kind of transfusion" asked Aqua as this was new to everyone, "Oh well you probably couldn't tell from first glance but this kid here is just like me, a zombie, undead, and on a weekly basis we go to the hospital for a special blood transfusion that keeps us from rotting on the streets and preventing this cutie her to look banged up like me" explained Zombina.

"Wait, you were a zombie" asked Kazuma, "The kid here was an undead this whole time" asked Aqua, "Yeah, but don't worry, I'll be sure to bring her back home within the hour" said Zombina as she took Yuuhi by the hand as they began to walk the other direction.

"Huh, well I be, never thought I'd have a forever younger sister" said Kazuma as the thought of it alone got him to smile, "Pedo NEET" said Aqua as Kazuma was thrown back.

"Oh shut up it ain't like that, and while we're talking about Yuuhi, you had better refrain from trying to cast undead on her unless you want to sleep in box out on the streets" warned Kazuma.

"That's so unfair, I'm a goddess who refuses to live under the roof of a smelly undead, especially a zombie" cried Aqua, "My house, my rules, don't like them, then pack your things and beat it" said Kazuma as he reduced Aqua to tears.

"I can't believe you'd be so cruel to say that" cried Aqua as she threw herself on Kazuma before he began to pull her cheeks, while not caring both were causing a scene in public.

As they continued on their banter, it gave Zombina a chance to catch up with Yuuhi, but also an insight as to the new guy who'd be working with her.

"So what are your thoughts on Kazuma and his girlfriend" asked Zombina as they continued to walk.

In all honesty, in spite of them always bickering, Yuuhi just can't imagine either Aqua or Kazuma being separated from one another, especially since she'd hate to say goodbye to either one of them.

With Kazuma, he provides food, he'll sit down and chat with her, watch TV together, and has promised her to take her to the park soon and get her new clothes.

With Aqua, she bathes with her, she do's her hair, has read to her a story before going to sleep, and to her knowledge at least, has interesting stories to tell about her time as a goddess with her old friends, including Kazuma.

In short, both became the surrogate family she needed since her parents had already prepared to move on with their lives when they thought Yuuhi was going to die originally.

"I hope they get married some day and have kids for me to play with" said Yuuhi, "Huh, great to know" said Zombina with a smile as they continued to walk to the hospital.

Ladies and Gentlemen, signal sirens and rally the troops, the moment has come for me to bring this oldie but a goodie back, and the opportunity for me to make a Bring Me the Horizon reference at long last.
