"Speech"

Time*

Arc 1 - Chapter 10

The next day*

"You can revive people?" I look at Aqua with a serious stare, making Aqua feel a bit uncomfortable. "I did not think there was such a spell. But, then again, I remember that Dullahan killed a few adventurers and I still see some of them these days. So it must have been you who revived them."

"Pretty sure, it's a healer-related class thing." Kazuma said to me, "Also, I'm very relieved Aqua had it, or I wouldn't be in this world. Though, I still want a trade..." Kazuma mumbles the last part of himself, which I heard but didn't comment on as I could roughly guess what he meant.

However, Aqua heard him clearly.

"How dare you hikiNEET! I should have left you dead!" Aqua glared at Kazuma for continuing to think about the other goddess, Eris, the very same one that used her name as the currency unit, just because she was worshipped as the national religion of this world.

"Hmm. Well, I guess it's time for you to repay your debt; I hope you won't be busy for a few days." I got up from my seat, then quickly grabbed the back of Aqua's shirt before she could even think about escaping. "We will see you guys in a few days. Darkness, I won't be home tonight and for the next few days. I'm going to force Aqua to pay the entire debt in one go instead of just using her service a few times during the week." With that said, I happily drag Aqua out of the guild while she screams for her team and anyone, but mostly at Kazuma to save her.

Sadly, for Aqua, no one volunteered to help. No one was a fool to mess with someone who could solo up to this point and do so many high-level quests that require a good balance or decent party numbers to complete. Only those with a death wish would face Daisuke.

A few days later*

"Daisuke, I miss you so much!" Darkness said to me as she happily hugged my left arm, giving me the feeling of her lovely breasts as it looks like her armor is still not finished being repaired after it damages in the fight against an army of undead. "It has been days since I last saw you. Do you miss me too?"

"I'm pretty sure you missed me for a certain reason." I avoided answering Darkness' question and she didn't seem to care. I avoided her question from the look of it. Yup, a girl like this, I would be a fool to leave alone. Maybe forming a harem again? I did it before and can do it again, but this time with fictional girls with a much better body shape and questionable personalities. But, I'm willing to look over it due to their appearance. Yes, liking girls just due to their appearance alone is bad, but that's how I am. "By the way, what's with Kazuma?"

"No clue." Darkness said honestly, not wanting to lie to her lover.

Currently, I'm watching Kazuma, who is clearly angry, with another adventurer and seems to be mocking Kazuma due to being in a party full of high-tier class members. While Kazuma has the weakest class and is a burden.

The adventurer mocks Kazuma, a man dressed as a warrior, sitting with his companions at his table, laughing with him.

"Hey, say something, weakest class holder. Really, bringing three pretty ladies around, are you planning to create a harem? And all of them have top-tier classes. You must be creating wonderful memories every day with these onee-san, right?"

Hearing this, the guild exploded in laughter. But, there are some who knew Kazuma's party and frown as they try to warn the guy that mocking Kazuma the entire time now is a bad idea.

"Hey, Kazuma, don't bother with them. I won't mind, no matter what they say about me." Megumin comes over to encourage Kazuma, and she gives him a cheerful smile.

"That's right, Kazuma, ignore those drunkards." Darkness cheers Kazuma as she leaves her lover for a moment to help her party leader be a good party member. "Besides, you don't see Daisuke looking down on you for being an Adventurer." Darkness made to point this out as Kazuma looks up to her lover.

"Yeah, Kazuma, look at Daisuke. He is very powerful, but not once have I seen him look down on you. Plus, the man is just jealous that Kazuma has us. So just leave them be." Aqua also wants to cheer Kazuma up as well.

"Glee, just because one guy acknowledges you don't mean much. I bet the guy is a pushover too." The man that mocked Kazuma started to mock me.

Kazuma, who was furious with the man, paused instantly and sat back down on his seat with a big smile on his face. Something the man and his party were confused about, but the crowd immediately knew why Kazuma was smiling.

I slowly got up from my table and walked over to the man who just disrespected me, with my hands in my pockets.

The whole guild went silent as they watches me slowly walking over until I was standing next to the table of the man that just disrespected me and his group of party members.

"Mind holding this for me a second?" I pull out my left hand, holding a yellow Spell Shard that has been charged beforehand and pass it over to the man, who was drunk and confused, but dumb enough to take the Spell Shard without asking why.

Once the man held the yellow Spell Shard, it sets off as the Spell Shard released electrical currents, shocking the man for a few seconds before passing out, with his entire body covered in soot and falling to the side, causing those nearby to look at the guy in horror as if he is dead.

Now that I have knocked out the man. I grab him by the feet and begin dragging him away under the eyes of the crowd.

"H-Hey! Where are you taking Dust?!" One of the man's companions shouted, taller than the rest of his party and equipped with heavy armor and a sword.

The man, I'm dragging, going by Dust, "Well, I'm planning to cut him open so that I could harvest his organs, then I will use them as bait for monsters. That way, I don't have to bother wasting my time chasing after them when I could just have them come to me." Upon hearing this, the crowd looks at me with absolute horror; even Darkness looks a bit ill about this. "Of course, I'm joking." I said in a monotone while continuing to drag Dust by his feet.

"Your action doesn't match what you're saying!" The other male party member of Dust shouted at me, then quickly moved over to stop me from kidnapping their friend/comrade and likely ending up dead.

"Whatever." I drop the fool that disrespected me, then carefully step on the guy's face and walk away while ignoring the fool's party members shouting at me for doing something uncalled for.

"Don't you think it was a bit too much with your joke?" Megumin asks me first the moment I return.

"Joke?" I looked at the little girl with confusion in my voice before I realized what she meant by my joke. "Eh, I don't think it's that much; I mean, I have done something worse as a joke in the past." And by that, I find myself very interested in dealing with the typical scenes of bullies and victims. Both sides bring me so many reactions that I can't stop myself from helping myself to... helping them.

"What could you do worse?" Kazuma asks me, "I mean, you did shock the guy and even planned to cut him open like a frog, then plan to use his organs as monster baits. Pretty sure that's worse, I could think of."

"I could just roast him alive and leave him to be devoured by monsters to act as bait for me while I prepare myself to fight a group of monsters." I said casually, then Kazuma paled right away. "There is also of selling him off to a cult, for human sacrifice for their gods or something, for some extra cash too."

"You're one scary guy, senpai." Kazuma said weakly, with both Megumin and Aqua paling as well.

"Daisuke, that's bad and cruel. As our comrades, we should be helping others, not cause harm to each other." Darkness said to me, trying to persuade me to be a better person.

"Shut up, don't make me strip you naked and toss you into the street." I said to Darkness without hesitation, causing Darkness to pant upon hearing what I just said and imagine it actually happening to her, making her feel hot and bothered. Something the others already used to, but they did move a bit further away from Darkness.

"Anyway, don't you guys have quests to do?" I look at Kazuma and his party, "The 40,000,000 eris debt won't disappear any time soon."

"Wait, Aqua paid off the 300,000,000 eris debt after all?!" Kazuma looks at the goddess with a shocked look on his face.

"Yup." I grin at Aqua, who shivers in fear. During those few days, I have taken my revenge on her, mentally and physically. "Also, the debt she owed me before sending me here." Okay, there was no debt, but there was revenge. Sweet revenge. Also, fucking her divine body... was somewhat normal? Honestly, I expected the sex to be... divine in a way? At least, I can say that I fucked a goddess, even if it's a shitty one. A goddess nonetheless.

Aqua burst into tears as she was forced to remember what happened during those few days alone with the monster in human skin.

"What happens?" Megumin asks Aqua out of curiosity. Along with those that are listening from a distance.

"It... It was awful! He drank sake in front of me without sharing and forced me to watch!" Aqua cried out in absolute horror, "And to make it worse! He forced me to pour the sake for him without even giving me a single drop!"

Everyone blankly stared at Aqua, while some had some understanding feeling, but they wouldn't react like the way Aqua is right now.

What no one realized or even looked closely. One can see how Aqua's body shakes in fear for a different reason. Of course, I didn't rape Aqua, and Nope, I made her have sex with me willing, blackmail or not.

"Anyway, shouldn't you guys go?" I said to Kazuma, "Unless you're planning to be in debt for the rest of your life?"

"Right! Let's go, guys! The faster we're done with this debt, the better!" Kazuma quickly rushes off to grab a quest, but secretly, he has no desire to find out what his senpai did to Aqua, nor does he want to stay in debt when someone like Aqua is free of her debt, even though the 40,000,000 eris is supposed to be Aqua's debt in the first place, but this is what he gets for being the party leader. There's always a downside to everything.

"I'll wait here; come get me when Kazuma picks out a quest." Darkness said to Megumin and Aqua. While at the same trying to get a kiss from her lover, who was being a bit difficult for not giving her a lovely kiss on the lip.

"Alright, I shall help Kazuma find the best quest to show the world our glory!" Megumin became hype and quickly rushed to Kazuma, but secretly she didn't want to stay near someone who would hurt others without hesitation if given a chance. Megumin would guess he would even kill someone if they piss him off enough.

Aqua seeing that she would be alone with the two weirdos, with one of them is very dangerous and has already done terrible things to her already, quickly follow the others' example and gets up and leaves, or else she ends up as a toy to that monster, she just lucky he a man of his words.

"Now, that it is just the two of us." Darkness said to me, hinting me to do whatever I wanted with her, even if there are people nearby. So, technically, we're not alone.

"Unlike you, I don't want to be seen naked in public." I said blankly, causing Darkness to blush and making a muffled moan. "However, wait until we go home, then I'll fill you right up. I'm sure you've been dying of thirst for the past few days." I whisper into Darkness' ear.

Darkness' body shivers in excitement, and she almost decides right there and then to skip today's quest with the rest of her party and head home with her lover. After all, she has held it in for days, which is already pushing her limit and Darkness knew the only reason she didn't just have sex with her lover in public right here and now. Is that her lover would be mad at her, which she dearly doesn't want to happen at all.

"Oh, look. I think Kazuma picked a quest to do, and you may want to go to them and find out what the quest is." I said to Darkness, who clearly looks like she was picking between the choice of doing the quest or not today. "If you finish the quest early and arrive home before 8 tonight. I'll reward you the way you like it."

The moment I whispered this into Darkness' ear, she already left me and appeared next to Kazuma, grabbing the quest form to read.

Watching this, I've decided to take today off and relax. I got enough Resurrection Shards that it could revive an entire army thrice over, which means I have enough for me to last a couple of thousands of years if I'm being wasteful.

A few minutes later*

After watching Darkness and her party left for a quest, which seemed to be hunting down a bunch of goblins, I left the guild building to see if anything was interesting to find in this town.

I noticed a few good-looking ladies before skipping them afterward as I compared them to Darkness; I lost interest and suddenly realized that all the ladies back on Earth had nothing on Darkness' body alone. Then again, I still think this is the world of some anime or something.

While walking around, to see if anything catch my interest until I stop near a stall, which sold vials filled with an unknown yellow substance liquid.

"Hey, what are these?" I ask the stall seller where I point at one of the twenty vials.

"Oh! These are Skill Potions, drink one and you gain a skill point to use without the need to level up." The stall seller explained how these Skill Potions are very hard to make, but not impossible and the ingredients aren't rare or hard to get. It's just the process of creating one is extremely hard to do and not many people can make it, even if one has a high-level skill to make it.

"There is such a thing?" I ask the stall seller, with the benefit of the doubt, since I still don't know everything in this fantasy world, nor would I think it is possible for me to know everything. But, a Skill Potion that gives me skill points without the need to level up is something I didn't think would be a thing in a fantasy world. Then again, this world is like a video game with the Adventurer's Card and all.

"I guess you must be new to this whole adventurer business. But, yes, there is such a thing." The stall seller chuckled, "Anyway, it will be a million eris per Skill Potion."

I stare blankly at the stall seller, "I'll take three." I reach into my pocket to grab the 3,000,000 eris, which is three Mithril Coin, and hand it over to the stall seller and take the three Skill Potions with me.

2 hours later*

I stare at the small box filled with Skill Potions and the empty crates on the side, which used to be filled with the ingredients needed to make the Skill Potions, and the price is cheap too. So, I made 50 Skill Potions within an hour, not including the 3 Skill Potions I purchased 2 hours ago.

Taking out my Adventurer's Card, where I see that I have 14 skill points unused. Grabbing one of the 3 Skill Potions I purchased before to test it out if it really works and drinks the whole thing in one gulp.

I watch the skill points go from 14 to 15, causing me to be a bit surprised that the Skill Potion actually works. So, I took the one I made, which in hindsight, should have tested out the 3 Skill Potions first to see it real before making my own, but eh.

So, another Skill Potion down my throat and wait to see the result. To my relief, it changes from 15 to 16. This means I got 52 Skill Potions for me to use. Also, if the price I paid for the 3 Skill Potions is the market price, I have 52,000,000 eris worth of Skill Potions in front of me.

I rub my chin, wondering if there is a way to increase the number of skill points gained from drinking a Skill Potion. Because really, I rather not drink all these Skill Potions, even if all of them are small and only require me just a second or two to drink a single vial.

"Well, may as well drink all of them. Just enough to get Teleportation Magic." I thought out loud, as I began drinking all the Skill Potions while planning to make a better version for the Skill Potion since I don't have the time to waste drinking a single Skill Potion for one point until I need all the Skill Points I need to max out some of the magic I'm planning to become a master of.

A few minutes later*

Magic Name: Teleport
Magic Tier: Advanced
Effect: Instantly travel to any destination, so long as the user has marked that location as a teleport point.
SP Cost: 60

Teleport's Upgrade List:

Name: Individual Target
Effect: Able to teleport another target to the destinations without the user going there themselves.
SP Cost: 3

Name: Multiple Markers
Effect: Able to have multiple teleport points at the same time.
SP Cost: 3

Now, I only have 2 skill points remaining and I really expected my stomach to be full with all the Skill Potions I drank. Over 50 vials should be plenty enough to make me have to stop before my stomach burst. But, nothing changed and I didn't feel full either.

Now that I've discovered this method of gaining more skill points. I can get more magic and improve them by upgrading them to the fullest. It would be a shame not to make more and a better version of the Skill Potion. Plus, this is technically not cheating if I can make them myself and pay for the ingredients. In a gaming term, this would be a pay-to-win.

Then I glanced at the empty crates on the side, which cost me a good 5,000,000 eris for the whole thing, and I got 50 Skill Potions out of it. So, in a way, I made a profit if I were planning to sell them and earn 50,000,000 eris.

Rubbing my chin, thinking if I should increase the number of quests to do, so I could gather enough funds to get the ingredients for the Skill Potion. I need many skill points, and my exp gains are becoming very slow at this point. Even taking on those high-level quest monsters wouldn't give me enough exp to level up to the point where I have enough skill points to have a fully upgraded both Control of Weather and Teleport. Maybe including the other magic I possess, if I have the extra skill points.

The next day*

"And that should be the last of it." I said to the counter lady as I handed over the goblin ears as proof of completing the last quest I had done for today, as I gathered enough funds to experiment with to see if I could craft a better Skill Potion, because spending 100,000 eris for a single Skill Potion's ingredients wasn't going to do for me. Not to mention, that sooner or later, the ingredients would be out and I still won't have enough Skill Points for my magic.

"Here's your reward. Come back soon." The counter lady said to me as she passed me the reward for the quest, which I just put into my pocket right away.

I walk over to the table, where Darkness and her party are, with a sad Darkness slouching in her seat. I can't blame her since last night when she returned, barely standing and passed out when she closed the door, which means no sex last night. Of course, after finding out it was Darkness that came in the house and not a Thief, which I may or may not end up using as my experiment subject, I help Darkness out by laying her on a couch to sleep for the night. Then, I allow myself to enjoy sleeping in the big bed alone.

"So, what you guys up to?" I sat next to Darkness, who brightened up when I appeared and latched onto my arm.

"Planning to do a dungeon run tomorrow; how about you, senpai? Have you done a dungeon run yet?" Kazuma asks me while holding the back of Megumin's shirt to stop her from running away.

"Don't wanna! Don't wanna! I'll lose my reason for existence if I go to a dungeon! The dungeon may collapse if I use Explosion Magic, making it impossible to use; I'll become a normal person!" Megumin cried out as she rather does something unrelated to dungeons.

"Quiet you! You hadn't forgotten what you said when you joined the party, have you?! Wasn't it something like, 'I'm willing to carry the luggage or anything when exploring dungeons?! Please, don't throw me away!' Huh?!" Kazuma yells at Megumin, who lets out a pitiful whine before lowering her head in resignation.

"Fine... I understand, but I'll really be useless, alright? I can only do things like carrying bags..." Megumin said, unease, that she couldn't use her beloved Explosion Magic.

"Can't you lower the size of the explosions?" I ask Megumin, which may have triggered her somehow.

"How dare you! Why would you say such a cruel thing?! An explosion must be big and loud! Anything less would shame all those that walk on the path of the explosion!" Megumin started lecturing me and everyone else about how Explosion Magic isn't something that could be controlled and should be released with all you have. Also, the bigger, the better.

"Sleep." I cast the Sleeping Magic onto Megumin, causing her to fall asleep and fall onto the ground, where she banged against the table on the way down, which made some wince. "So you mention a dungeon?" I ask Kazuma while I'm beginning to secretly rub Darkness' thigh, causing her to shudder and suppress a moan that closes to coming out of her mouth.

Kazuma glance at the unconscious Arch-Wizard in his party before looking back at his senpai, who clearly is a better Arch-Wizard, but the sad thing is that this Arch-Wizard is an overpowered solo Mage and not willing to join a party.

"Actually, why do you even want to go to a dungeon all of a sudden, Kazuma? If you want to explore dungeons, the party needs a Thief, alright? How about Chris? I haven't seen her around the guild lately." Aqua said lazily while resting her head on the table.

"She really busy. From what Chris told me before, her senpai, who took care of her in the past, was pushing all sorts of troublesome matters on her. So who knows when she would return; however, before she went off, she taught me Detect Traps and Disarm Traps, which are necessary for dungeon exploration. Christ said the types of monsters in dungeons wouldn't change because of the seasons. That's why I thought of going into one and giving it a try." Kazuma explained, then glared at Aqua, "Also, I'm hoping that the dungeon run would give me something valuable to sell, to pay off the rest of the debt." Kazuma growls at Aqua, causing the goddess to whimper a little.

"Hmm. I honestly forgot there was such a thing." I said with a hint of interest in these dungeons. "Well, good luck." I would ask to tag along, but I got Skill Potions to make.

Kazuma slouched, "So, that's a no on joining with us to the dungeon?"

"That's a no." I replied, "But, after I finish whatever I'm doing. I may tag along with your party for a quest or two. I'm curious about all the things you guys have done. Darkness wouldn't explain much due to certain reasons." I smirk as Darkness didn't say anything, or more like she couldn't. Something that Kazuma noticed and blushed as he easily could guess why Darkness had been quiet for so long.

"Right. I plan to have everyone else in my party escort me on the way there since I will be the only one infiltrating the dungeon. Just to test the water first." Kazuma continues off while trying not to pay attention to the little detail going on with Darkness, a detail that would require him to take a cold shower soon. "Therefore, everyone. We'll meet up here tomorrow." With that said, Kazuma quickly rushes out of the guild, with Aqua chasing after not a second later.

Megumin gave Darkness and me one look before following Aqua's example and leaving the guild.

"Alright, come on, Darkness. I think you know where we need to go now. Don't worry; I'll ensure you're well-rested for tomorrow." I grin at Darkness, whose face is red and forehead is covered in sweats. "And by well-rested." I lean closer to Darkness to whisper into her ear. "I'll make sure you are out cold near the end."

Darkness didn't need to be told twice and quickly dragged her lover back home as she is dying of thirst. Darkness waited long enough and won't wait any longer.
