[26/10/2018 ] edit: I'm working on the chapter 7 and I think it'll be out in a day or two. Stay hooked :)
Chapter 6 :Let's do a quest !
Everything is dark, cloaked in pure blackness, nothing can be feel or seen as my sight don't dicern any object.
Where I am ?
It's just emptiness everywhere, but somehow a feeling of coziness in spreading in my body, like if I were in a good hot bath.
Did I died ?
I feel really tired too and I kinda have a desire to stay here a litlle bit longer.. It's a good place to rest..
A light ?
But not only a faint but precise ray of light appear, some bird's warble start to be heard, tickling my right ear as well.
I feel some ambient noises too, some distant walking, vague people chatting and the regular sound emitted by a pendulum of a clock.
There a pleasant breathing sound too.
I try to open my eyes, slowly but surely, I see first a wooden ceilling, and as my vision is still foggy I turn my head toward the breathing sound I heard previously.
''Megumin ?''
Seeing the red girl sleeping in a bed next to me suddenly cause myself to recollect all the events that happened. And with it, instant regrets start to sprout out.
Because yes, I remember the last sentence I said before casting the explosive spell.
It's like I confessed to her isn't it ? Yes it surely is..there no mistake to be having.
I am an idiot or what ?! There not only that ! I was really bold with her too !
''…..''
I take a peek of the girl that made me look that pitiful and her sleeping face, as she rhymically breath in and out make my regret monologue's process to come to a halt.
I guess it's not the worst girl I could have picked. I don't know if I'm in love with her but one thing is sure, despite her appearance pushing all my sense to categorize her as a ''loli'' I saw her as a woman way to much these recent days.
''...''
Megumin face is aimed toward me, eyes closed with a peaceful looking expression.
She kinda look like a angel when she sleeping.
Actually I always thought that she was way more cute without her hat on, and true is that I wasn't mistaken. I kinda apreciate her messy hair on both side of her head.. Megumin look more like any another girl this way, not an explosion maniac like she actually is, all day long.
Is she dreaming ? And if yes, I wonder what she's dreaming about.. surely explosion if that to be something I guess.
''Kazuma...''
Wait ! did she said my name here ?! I cant believe it ! Is she thinking about me ?
''Pervert..''
Megumin moved her body, facing the other side of the room as she munble in her sleep..
..
Oh I see , yeah, true is, she has a point there, I nearly abused her when she was in a weaken state. If I can allow my self to say, I'm not in a hurry to confront her when she awaken.
That sleeping demon was on the effect of the spell.. It look like I sexually harassed her because even if she wanted to get rid of me when I was embracing her, I don't know if she could have did it or even voice her disagreement .
''!''
Megumin just turned herself on the other side did she ?
Actually she is not wearing anything as I see her nude back facing me directly. The white blanket got slightly removed when that little demon moved, revealing some plot of her pale skin.
''I can keep watching.. that not my fault.. ''
Surely drooling I make sure to register every curve of Megumin's tiny frame.
I've touched this place.. with my finger and this fact make me extremely excited about what I witnessing.
There no one in this room that seem to be an inn bedroom so, maybe I can make the blanket slightly go away by inadvertence.. you know.
I wake up and discover in the same time that I'm wearing nothing but a white short as I see my stuffs tossed out in a corner of a room.
Megumin seem to be deep in her sleep, as I make sure to not make to much noises while moving toward her.
''Slowly...''
I reach the blanket with my shaking hand and slightly pull it down.. My heart beat faster and faster as I discover more and more centimeter of that unturned skin.
First I saw her belly, slender as that you would expect it to be,with a cute small belly button enthroning at the center of it.
''I can't believe what I'm doing...''
I don't dare going lower as I raise my stare totally full of curiosity toward the place I countlessly categorized as ''flat plains''.
''..''
Oh my god.. I cannot believe what I'm doing ..Where I am looking at.. Megumin of all person..
Her special place.. Yeah It's flat.. but not totally flat there-
''What what are you doing to her you pervert neet!''
I hear the worthless deity voice behind me as I was holding the blanket in one hand and avidly looking to Megumin bare chest..
''Gulp!''
Obviously I quickly turn back, shaking from intense fear as I anticipate what going to happen to me by now.
Aqua, darkness and a girl that I dont recognize are standing, the mouth wide open, shocked by what they actually witnessing.
''It's not what you think is it! Actually that a big misunderstanding!''
Agitating my hand in front of me not seem to convince them as they slowly start to understand fully what going on here.
I see them whispering and nodding to each other while I can only stand here, petrified by the fact I've been caught doing that.
''Sorry kazuma, I need to do it..''
Darkness grabbed me from behind with a hallucinant speed and by how strong she is, prevent me to move a inch.
''If-if you wanted to do voyeur things I would have sacrificed myself!''
As she whisper nonsense while being aroused as ever, I see the two remaining woman coming with a bitter smile on their lips, readying something.
''C-cut it out!''
I cant get out! Are they gonna kill me ?! No no! I don't want to die that early! I have plenty wonderful things to live yet!
Aqua that who was on the midst of casting a spell that I want to ignore the potential effects, suddenly turned her gaze toward Megumin and so do I, questioning what going on.
''Hmm...Why I'm naked?''
Oh no, she awakened.. Megumin look tired as ever as she barely sit on the bed, her blanket wrapped around her body as she rub her half closed eyes.
The witch look at everyone in the middle of torturing me as she seem to get her mind on track slowly but surely. Finally she met my gaze and start to turn crimsom red like I would expect her to react if she were to get naked in front of a boy.
''Great timing Megumin! We caught Kazuma undressing you and ogling with pervy eyes!''
It's actually the first time since the dullahan battle that I see aqua that determinated about something else than a money cause. I guess this is ''women mutual aid'' that taking the main priority here.
And this ''mutual aid'' group of angered woman is against dangerous type of people like me.
Oh god..
''It's a lie! she was already nude!''
''So you admit you was looking huh?,
Aqua put me in a corner looking at me with disdain and, as I blowed up all chance to dodge the punishment, darkness strengthen her grip on me, panting and excited as usually while the worthless deity crack her fist and start emanating a deadly blue aura.
But the main threat wasn't coming from this person actually.
Megumin lowered her head, a bit trembling, and as she take her wand, the young witch stand up, still rolled in the blanket.
Magic circle start to appear around her as the crimson witch cast a spell I know to well toward me.
''Megumin no! I swear I was just looking a bit!''
An heavy wind start to blow as she pronounce the last sentence of her usual well know cliche formula.
''I-I shouldn't have trust you! I even let you do all those .. bondship to me! You're the worst deviant in the whole world!''
The room turn red as the angered Megumin even started levitating in the air, her red wand shining of a crimson nuance looking like the inner part of hell.
''Don't do that! we'll be caught in the explosion radius !''
The unknow girl that I mentionned earlier spoke as she's still a the place she was when she first entered the room. But like everyone, the girl seem helpless, no being able to stop the soon bloodbath that gonna occur.
''..''
And so this how I'm gonna die after just having risked my life for the sake of this well said demon that gonna blow up my body apart.
Damn! I owned this! I mean that kind of view of her! After all, I saved her!
She won't listen to me isn't she?
I can even understand why..
So that was atlast fun.. goodbye world.
''EXXXXPLOSSSION!''
''Bammmm!''
The whole building look like a crater now..
''...''
Turn out that she held herself and made a smaller explosion, everyone was still alive but with some injuries. Even if most of the injuries are from myself, Megumin was obliged to pay an heavy some of money for the collateral damage she done to the Inn we were resting.
I guess she can't pay that amount of money but it has nothing to do with me right?
Who gonna believe that.. Even if it turn out that Megumin had a fever since the curse was lifted, and because of that, aqua and darkness undressed her and let her rest in the bed. I wasn't suppose to do what I've done.
'..''
What happening to me? That a great opportunity to get rid of one of the troublesome person in my party and instead now, I want to repay my debts and so I've came with an idea. Without telling the other I've pick a quest from the panel and headed toward where is supposed to live Megumin. Carefully avoiding aqua that begged for us to go on a rewarding quest since she is somewhat again full of ''debts ''
With all happened with Megumin in the inn and even if Aqua see me as a pervert lolicon, the worthless deity still lived up to her name by kneeling and imploring me to do a quest..
I refused.
Usually I would have bended enough to agree but not this time, Megumin didn't came at the guild today, I'm afraid she would ever want to cross path with me again.
So, about killing two birds with one stone, I will go look for Megumin and ask her help to accept a quest that would repay her debts with me.
Truth is, her non presence at the guild headquarter made me feel lonely..
And like I said it's not like me! Usually I need no one to live since I'm enclosing myself with my loved 2D waifu .
Anyway I've finally arrived at the banal house were megumin supossed to live. It's a awfully small and really not cleaned little shack.
I guess she cannot afford very much since she cannot do any quest by herself..
I knock at the door wait a few second before the wooden door slowly open itself.
''Who is it?''
Her head sticked out from a small gap she created as Megumin asked who is it with a seemingly monotonous voice.
''It's Kazuma''
Somewhat seeing her face and hearing her voice with all happened to us these days make my heart beat fast.
As she saw my face and heard my name the red demon was somewhat a bit suprised but hopefully for me, she dont seem to be angered or scared.
''What are you doing here?''
The door is now fully opened as she questioning my presence here and since I see her fully, I notice that she is actually wearing a cute red pajama with some wool pom pom sticked to it.
I guess that a really pleasant view but she was still sleeping? it's noon already ...
But anyway, I fully explained today's plan to Megumin while avoiding to look to much at her and finally, ended my speech by me bowing my head literally touching the ground.
''I'm really sorry!''
I cannot see how she react to my deepest apologies and as I am still in the same position, seconds seem like minute as she say nothing back.
''You better be! ''
I was expecting that..
''But.. I guess I'll forgive since you save my life several time.''
I raise my head dumbfounded by how much easy it actually was. And as I do so I see Megumin face red from embarrassment as she is not directly looking at me.
''I will not do it again I swear !''
My back arched straight like a soldier would stand up in front of his superior as even my tone was military like.
''I-Its my fault for letting you to do those type of.. physical bondship..''
Megumin face seem to smile proudly for a unknow reason as she point me out with her wand, still in her pajamas.
''I could allow the possibility to understand that my woman charm could be devastating ''
''But you need to gain a little more self control''
Hei? Woman charm? She is joking right? She is look more like a child than an adult in all the way possible!
Haha! I cannot hold my smile ! How overconfident she can be?
''Wh-What I wanted to say is!.. next time.. Don't do anything without asking me first.''
Megumin mumble as her confidence is nowhere to be seen anymore and without needing a reply from me, she went back in her shack as she close the door , leaving a lot of question in my perverted head..
Like..
Does that mean if I asked something like ''let me touch you'' or ''can we kiss?'' there would be a posibility that she would agree?!
But before I could torture my brain again, the source of my fantasy open the door fiercely, fully equipped with her usual red equipment.
''Let depart to our quest destination Kazuma!''
