Chapter 157 – Bless This Wonderful World (14)
Heying-!!
Dyurahan rides away on a horse without a head,
Seo-joon scratched his cheek as if he was dumbfounded.
‘I didn’t expect this.’
Is that something, an officer of the Demon King’s Army?
Seo-joon thought so, but soon he realized.
He knows what kind of work he entered.
‘Hmm, it’s something that would have happened if it was Konosuba.’
I understood in an instant.
It is a work full of all kinds of extraordinary settings.
The fact that the author, an executive of the Demon King’s Army, ran away in such an ugly way is charming.
‘Should I kill him now?’
Seojun narrowed his eyes.
How quickly Dyurahan ran away, the distance was already more than 300 meters.
And it continues to grow in real time. However, that much was within Seo-jun’s range.
‘No, it’s done.’
He shook his head.
He doesn’t have to kill him now.
The bounty is worth it, but it’s not that urgent.
‘Because if I don’t have enough money, I can bring real things and sell them.’
A world full of different people.
However, it did not come to the earthly thing.
Even if you have knowledge, you have to go through countless trials and errors before implementing it in this world, as well as obstacles from the vested interests.
There was no way that such a thing would be possible for ordinary reincarnated people.
I don’t know if there are any cheats in that field.
‘Most of the people choose the brute force cheat.’
As many come from Japan.
There were many people who were influenced by Annie and La Novel.
Most of those people chose something related to force as their first perk.
Choosing a non-combat perk is rather unusual.
So no worries.
‘I can bully them though.’
Doesn’t kill
Yes, it will not kill.
‘A moving target is a good practice target.’
Kirik-
He protested
So again, the bombardment of arrows hit Dyurahan.
“Kiyo oh oh clothes!!!”
Even at a distance, screams could be heard.
Haha!! Run!!”
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!!
The series of attacks could not be completely avoided.
The range was also range, but above all, the speed exceeded the speed of sound, so there was no chance to avoid it.
Dyurahan, who was so battered, was able to escape in a semi-death state.
“Huh, it was fun.”
The stress melted away.
As he was wiping away sweat, Darkness, who was next to him, let out a rough breath.
“I thought it would have been like this. Churup.”
“…”
To Darkness, who has a taste for Majo, Seo-Jun’s sadistic side made him see him again.
It’s good enough to steal saliva.
‘Well, then…’
Well, anyway, thinking that the situation was settled, Seo-joon turned around.
There were still dumb people in my eyes.
Big-
Seojun cleared his throat and opened his mouth.
“Evil Dyurahan has retreated. This is our victory!”
Momentary silence.
After about 5 seconds, a shout broke out.
Wow!!!
Crowds intoxicated with victory.
However, Megumin and other party members were more worried about Seo-joon than the joy of victory.
“Seojun! Hurry up and go to the church! We must get rid of the curse!”
“Yes, Megumin is right.”
“I agree too. I’m sure Eris-sama will help.”
These are the words of Megumin, Darkness, and Chris, in order.
Chris’s last remark was meaningful, but Seo-joon smiled.
“Will I not have to go?”
“To?”
“Here is the Arch Priest.”
Seojun pointed at Aqua.
As the attention suddenly turned to herself, Aqua widened her eyes.
However, at the fact that Seo-joon had lifted him up, he scratched the back of his head and laughed.
“Ehehe, Seojun-ssi said that.”
“… Wouldn’t it be better to go to the church?”
But.
Megumin and Darkness put on a puzzled expression.
As much as she’d been partying with her, she knew that Aqua wasn’t lacking in skill, but her behavior, which she’d seen so far, detracted from her score.
Chris?
She was looking intently at the distant mountains.
Because of her personality, she couldn’t bear to speak bitterly against Aqua, her senior.
“What are you talking about!”
Conflict!!!!
Aqua shouted out loud.
“I’m way better than the guys in town!”
It can’t go on like this!
Aqua decided to show her own skills.
In order to receive the recognition of his beloved Seo-jun, his own honor, and his colleagues!
“Sacred Break Spell!”
A chanted Aqua used her magic.
Hwa-ah-ah, a white flash came down from the sky and hit Seo-jun.
OK,
-Keeeee
The black energy that dwelled in Seo-jun’s body was dragged out by the white hand and ascended to the sky.
“Ahem! With this, the curse is completely gone!”
“Thank you.”
Smack smack.
Seojun stroked Aqua.
“Ehehe.”
Aqua blushes in her face.
The other party members who were watching the scene made dumb faces.
I really didn’t expect to get rid of the curse of Dyurahan.
It seems that Aqua was a more talented person than they imagined.
“… Seo, Seo-jun.”
“Huh?”
Megumin approached him and embraced him.
“Wow! Sorry! Because of me!”
She burst into tears
Even though she is an adventurer, she is still a young girl.
Seo-joon smiled and patted her on the back affectionately.
Until the crying has completely stopped.
***
A few days later.
Rumors of them spread like wildfire.
To the extent that there is no one in this town who doesn’t know.
There were so many adventurers who actually came out and watched the scene, so it was natural for rumors to spread.
It’s because they love to talk.
Is it because of that?
“Hmm.”
The annoying interest has increased a lot.
Especially women’s interest in Seojun.
‘Shit. I’m not interested in anything other than named characters.’
Not to mention their names, extras that were not expressed for a second or a line in anime or novels were out of his interest.
No matter how pretty
To be honest, I’m busy just attacking other heroines.
Still, leaving a good impression is a virtue.
It was good to manage reputation.
‘That way I can use it.’
If you have a good reputation, there are many things that will help you in many ways.
So Seo-joon dealt with them moderately.
“Hey, Seojun.”
“Huh?”
While having such a busy day.
One day, Megumin came up to him and quietly tugged at his collar.
“What’s the matter?”
“… Would you like to go for a walk with me today?”
Seojun smiled brightly.
‘It’s finally caught.’
After the incident in Dyurahan.
Seojun secretly kept his distance from Megumin.
Of course, on the surface he treated me well as usual, but he didn’t follow me on a stormy walk.
It’s because you’re busy.
Actually, I was busy doing quests and all.
‘Well, if it was Megumin’s request, I’d have put aside that and followed it.’
This was what he intended.
To imprint himself firmly in a corner of her heart.
Maybe he wants to repay himself somehow, but he doesn’t know how, and he’s impatient when he sees other girls clinging to him.
Such jealousy.
It was very good.
‘Shall we harvest soon?’
I don’t know what conclusion she came to.
However, when I saw that reaction, I was able to guess that the time to harvest had come.
“Good.”
“Gee, really?”
Hwaak-
Megumin’s expression brightened.
Seojun stroked her hair gently.
“Of course. It’s Megumin’s request.”
So, the two of them went for a brisk walk.
***
After the incident in Dyurahan.
Megumin thought a lot.
That the incident was, in the end, brought about by himself.
‘If I hadn’t taken a blast walk to that castle, Dyurahan wouldn’t have come.’
Even when you come.
If she had apologized properly, there is a possibility that she would have forgiven Dullahan as well.
If she had there meekly admitted and apologized,
‘Seojun wouldn’t have suffered like that.’
Recalling the curse of Dullahan, Megumin chewed her lips.
All of this is because of you.
‘It has to change.’
To do so, you must give up your explosion magic.
She groaned.
The reason Megumin became obsessed with explosion magic was because of something in the past.
She was born into a poor family and had a poor childhood where she could not even eat a meal, let alone her toys.
Then, in her childhood, she gets bored and puts the pieces that seal her god of death together like a puzzle, as a toy, and ends up unsealing her god of death.
Then, a huge monster appeared and attacked Megumin, and then a female sorceress appeared and defeated the beast with explosion magic.
She then learned her explosion magic from her older sister who saved her because the explosion magic she saw left an impression on her, and she later mastered her explosion magic and showed it to her sister. Was to have
So her option of giving up was difficult for her to choose.
But she had to come to a conclusion because the other day had put the party and the man she had a crush on in danger.
“Seojun, I brought you because I had something to say, not because of the explosive walk.”
When she arrived at a small place a short distance from the village, her Megumin opened her mouth.
Seo-joon waited patiently for her words.
“I thought deeply about the last time, and I realized something. The fact that if I continue to insist on explosion magic, I will only cause trouble to the party and Seo-joon. So now I’m going to seal the explosion magic and learn proper advanced magic like an arc wizard.”
“…”
“Haha… But it’s difficult for me to do it myself because my hands are shaking. So, I have a favor for you, Seojun.”
“What?”
She pulled out an adventurer card from her bosom and held it out.
“Could you use all the points you saved to learn advanced magic instead of me?”
“Are you okay with that? You like explosion magic.”
“… I can’t help it.”
“Ha, I see.”
“Thank you…”
Seojun received an adventurer card.
Then I invested points.
“Now, here.”
“…”
When Seo-jun returned the adventurer card, Megu-ming put it in her arms without even looking.
Her Seojun smiled at her and said.
“Then can you finally show me the 100 point explosion magic?”
“… Great! As this is the last time, I will show you a great guy!”
Just like that, Megumin chanted explosion magic.
Yet,
Founding
“To?”
The collapsed Megumin put on a startled expression.
It was because the explosion magic I just used was the greatest and best explosion magic in the past.
She took out the adventurer card from her pocket and checked it.
There, all the missing points were invested in ‘improving the power of explosion magic’, not ‘learning advanced magic’.
“Uh, why?”
“Because I want you to never give up on your dreams.”
“… Seojun.”
Whip-!
Megumin’s tears welled up.
After roughly stealing it, she looked at Seo-jun with such a subtle expression, as if she was embarrassed and couldn’t control her joy, and then introduced herself in the manner of a red demon with a bright smile.
“My name is Megumin! An arc wizard, one who uses explosion magic! He is the best magician in Axel, and one day he will reach the pinnacle of explosion magic! Seojun, thank you!”
“Thank you. Rather, let’s go back.”
“Yes!!”
Megu Ming wrapped her arms around Seo-jun’s neck.
On the way back while hugging the princess like that.
She asked.
“Seojun.”
“Huh?”
“How many points was my explosion this time?”
Yes, of course
“150 points.”
When Megu Ming heard that, she smiled at the end.
***
So Seo-joon arrived at Megu-ming’s dorm and put her on her bed.
And when I was about to go back,
“Seojun…”
She called him
“Why?”
“Today, thank you very much. Thanks to you, I didn’t have to give up on my dream.”
“Thank you.”
“But, that doesn’t make me feel comfortable. Originally, after learning advanced magic, I planned to work harder as a wizard for Seo-jun.”
After her words, Megu Ming shut her mouth for a moment.
And as if he had finished his thoughts, he opened his mouth.
“Well, that’s what I mean… I want to repay you properly for Seo-joon.”
She blushed and avoided Seo-jun’s gaze.
“If you want, you can do whatever you want with me…”
Her voice resounded quietly in the room where they were alone.
