I'll think I'll try to make bigger chapter for the next one, so it's surely gonna take so time to write.
This one is a litlle small but I hope you'll enjoy it nonetheless .
Chapter 7 : Megumin's boyfriend.
So about the quest...
Obviously I picked something that could be achieved easily and without taking too much risk since were not the most powerful team out there.
And about what I've understood we need to get rid of troublesome ''mini golem'' that invaded the nearby fields around a castle owned by important person.
Of course I tried to find more details or informations about the quest but except the the nature itself of the said ''mini golem'' I couldn't find anything else.
''They like to travel by small group of ten souls as they are perpetually looking for fertile ground since their only regime is based of dirt and grass''
I enumerate what written on the scroll containing the quest for Megumin, who is standing at my right as we just arrived at our destination,a wide grassy plain who seem to expand infinitely beyond my sight.
''That won't be long''
Megumin seem ready as ever, excited about the upcoming battle as she even try to take a serious pose while looking seriously at the distance.
''Calm down we don't know where those monster are supposed to be''
I turn at an 360 degree angle, looking for any threats or things getting out of context as I quickly spot the castle that was mentionned in the quest's infos, then I keep turning, now facing the small path we borrowed for reaching this area.
Actually a brown haired girl, can be seen running toward us seeming out of breath.
''Megumin !.kof...koff What of coincidence ! …... ''
This isn't the girl who was present when I was resting at the inn ? Why is she here?
''Yunyun..''
Megumin say, exasperated while the girl finally reach us.
''You know her ?''
As I ask, the red demon make a not amused face.
''Yes, this is Yunyun my self-proclaimed rival.''
Megumin have a rival ? What she could've done wrong for having one ?
As I remember that Megumin could anger anyone easily, and in several way, the girl called Yunyun finally caught her breath.
''That's wrong ! I'm your true rival !''
The hysterically girl blabbering about as megumin seem to not be concerned about it.
''Now that the fate united us let's duel !''
What now... we don't have time for that, we have a quest to complete I'd like to remember.
Those girl can settle this later because the mini golems won't kill themselves alone.
And it seem that even Megumin seem to not be up to the challenge as she sigh heavily.
But soon enough she now look like she have an idea as a bitter smile came across her face and I grew to understand that when she doing that kind of expression that mean she gonna do a terrible mistake.
''Alright then.. at one condition.. you let me choose what kind of duel.''
Yunyun thought about it for 5 second before nooding in agreement.
The crimsom demon looked at me like for confirming something as she was making a resolved face.
Finally the fully determined Megumin turned back now facing Yunyun.
''That will be a battle of woman charm !''
''What? Are you sure ?''
The weird brown haired girl seem to think the same thing than me actually. It's clear that she have the upper hand here as she have a body way much mature than Megumin.
Boob wise and hips wise, that yunyun girl is taller on top of everything.
But Megumin have still her assurance as she surely have something up her sleeve.
''Here the deal !''
Megumin point me out.
''The first one to kiss Kazuma win !''
''..''
HEYY ?!
What the hell ?! She is joking of course ! there no way Megumin would say something that bold !
''That-that unfair Megumin ! He is your boyfriend right ?''
Huh ? Can I get to mention something ? Th-there a little bit of misunderstanding here, I don't remember being Megumin boyfriend at all..
I'm spechless, totally speechless.
Megumin don't seem to disagree when yunyun said ''boyfriend'' as she just come toward me.
''Megumin there something I'd like to verify if you allow m-''
Before I can end my sentence the red demon get on tip-toes raising herself at my height as I witness her full embarrassed face coming closer and closer.
''...Mmnn''
''…..''
Megumin kissed me.. she kissed me ! That was quick but she actually did it!
''Like I said that unfair ! You cheated !''
Yunyun fulminate inflating her cheek with air as she express her dissatisfaction to the red demon facing her as the said demon smile proudly, some fragrance of the consequence of her daring move still present as her cheek hold a red color.
''You can't win against me, even with those monstrosity!''
The overacting red witch point out yunyun boob as I'm literally frozen on the spot, not even caring about what going on anymore.
''By the way Megumin since when are you going out with this guy?''
Yunyun out of curiosity and probably as dumbfounded as me ask a question that I would have ask myself if were capable to open my mouth right now. Megumin for her part lower her head a little bit seeming a bit uncertain.
''It's not like that. You're wrong...''
''It's more like a bond! Ka-kazuma is... link to my being... by the god..''
''This is why... ''
''I have no choice.. I cannot go agaisnt the god's will...''
That nonsense! What is she talking about?!
By the way, did I mention that I have several question here?.. For exemple... Megumin did just acknowledge me as her boyfriend right? Right?
So If I say nothing right now that mean I'm in relationship? That not a joke?
Finally..
Does that mean..
That my life can really start?
''Is that true Mr perverted?''
The yunyun named girl tilt her head on the side while asking me on a casual tone. And you know what? I'm not even surprised by her appellation of me.
After all she saw me in this room, close to be on my way to assault megumin who was defenselessly laying in her bed as she was peacefully sleeping.
''...''
If I want to tell Megumin that she is wrong, that I am not her boyfriend or her god's binded's whatever it's now. I just need to say ''no'' and in the same time pass on being her special person.
And so eventually between two explosion spell she will find another boy who'll gonna catch her heart and I'll be peacefully alone, not bothered by that angel faced girl anymore.
Peacefully alone huh?
I said girl but now what I see is a woman, at least when I'm looking at her Megumin does not look like a wandering puppy who IS looking for food anymore, strangely I'm fascinated by her natural beauty, and even if there a lack of ''shape'' at some place the whole lot make it very attractive for a weird unexplained reason.
Why did I not notice that before? romance I was looking for was more likely just in front of my eyes..
And so I shrug my shoulder not responding and avoiding contact with yunyun as I hear a faint sigh of relief coming from megumin.
''I can't believe it!''
'' Sob.. even in that field I've losed !''
Oh she is crying now..
Yunyun look pathetic as she kneel on the ground, defeated.
''?''
''hey?!''
What is happening?!
The ground start to shake as if there was a earthquake happening just under us as everyone present here staggers loosing balance because of those regular shocks.
''Kazuma they're here !''
''What do you mean ?!''
Megumin point with her wand while trying to stay on her two feet.
''.. !''
Yeah I see them ! I mean.. there a group of ten entity running toward us. But that not all!
''Those monsters are just ''mini'' by the name ! ''
The said golem are massive ! At least as tall as a house ! That wasn't mentionned in the quest's info !
''Megumin ready your explosive spell while I distract them !''
