"Yes."
Rin didn't deny it and nodded. "I was also brought over by Aqua."
"Oh oh oh!"
Seeing another reincarnator and realizing Rin wasn't as overbearing, his attitude naturally beca very humble.
Not to ntion, this was a super-rich guy who could treat the entire Adventurers Guild.
Kazuma wasn't just trying to avoid offending a tycoon like this. He was also trying to raise his favorability.
"By the way."
Rin shook hands with Kazuma, then introduced, "This is my teammate, Darkness. She's a very excellent Cross Knight."
"Hello."
"I am Darkness."
Darkness politely greeted the two.
Although she didn't know why Rin wanted to interact with them, this was his decision. She would never let him lose face.
'This, this quality of beautiful girl...'
'And she's even a female knight!'
Seeing Darkness quietly standing beside Rin like a loyal guardian knight, Kazuma's heart was filled with envy.
Look!
This is what a real transmigrator should look like.
Not like him, who crossed over with a goddess and ended up moving bricks at a construction site.
Just yesterday, he finally mustered the courage to go out and hunt monsters, only to almost get eaten by a frog.
Thinking about all that, Kazuma felt overwheld with sorrow and nearly burst into tears on the spot.
"You..."
Rin patted his shoulder. "You look like you've had a rough ti."
"Rin-senpai, you can tell? I..."
"Waaah~"
Kazuma was about to keep talking when Aqua suddenly shoved him aside with an iron mountain lean.
"Rin, Rin, you seem to be doing very well."
"Um..."
"I'm a little short on cash lately. I was wondering if maybe..."
Aqua made a money gesture. Kazuma imdiately turned his face away, pretending not to know her.
"..."
Even Darkness, usually the gentle one, was stunned by Aqua's shalessness.
No.
Opening with a request for money, wasn't that going too far?
"You can."
Rin didn't mind Aqua's request.
He pulled out a bag of gold coins from his cloak and weighed it. "This is about 500,000 eris. Consider it my sponsorship for your adventures."
"First, have a good al. Then go buy so proper equipnt."
"Aniki!!!"
Kazuma instantly hugged Rin's leg. "Say no more. From now on, you're my Aniki!!"
Originally, he thought Rin would be one of those aloof transmigrators who looked down on others.
But who would've thought he'd be this generous?
What else was there to say?
This was a thigh that needed hugging.
"What do you think you're doing?! Let go of Rin right now, you useless Kazuma!"
"You're clearly a useless goddess, yet you still have the nerve to say that about !"
"Hmph!"
Aqua imdiately tried to buy high-grade sparkling wine with the gold coins, but Kazuma snatched the bag away.
"Waaah!!!"
"What are you doing, useless Kazuma!"
Aqua scread, "Give back the gold coins!"
"Absolutely not!"
Kazuma shouted, "This is money Aniki gave us to buy equipnt! I absolutely won't let you waste it on sparkling wine!"
"What?!"
Aqua yelled, "That was clearly an offering Rin gave ! What does it have to do with you?!"
As the two continued to fight over the money, Rin suddenly thought of a possibility. He casually said, "If you're feeling tired, Kazuma, how about you let take care of Lady Aqua?"
Originally, Rin didn't plan to get too involved with Aqua.
Aqua, the Water Goddess, was quite the handful.
He was honestly concerned that if she joined, she might bring unpredictable chaos to the peaceful environnt of the Monster Nation.
But all things considered, she was still a goddess.
Aqua, putting aside everything else, just her looks and deanor—when she wasn't talking—left quite the impression.
"...."
Rin noticed Kazuma suddenly go quiet and realized he might have been too forward.
After all, they'd been adventuring together for a while.
Asking so bluntly, with Kazuma's sharp personality, he'd definitely notice Rin's true intentions.
Slap!
Before Rin could say anything else, Kazuma had already pushed Aqua into his arms.
"Aniki!"
Kazuma said seriously, "You promised, you absolutely can't take it back!!"
Over the past half month, he'd been scamd by Aqua too many tis.
Right now, he was desperate to abandon this useless goddess.
She wasn't just useless. She spent every bit of his hard-earned money on alcohol.
He couldn't afford her.
Kazuma swore that he could no longer afford to support this goddess.
And the most important thing.
When he first registered as an Adventurer, his card had clearly shown that his luck was far above average.
But since then, he hadn't encountered anything remotely good.
In short, Kazuma had figured sothing out. 'Aqua isn't the Water Goddess at all. She's the Goddess of Bad Luck!'
Just look at her ridiculously low luck stat.
Kazuma had every reason to believe that it was her bad luck that was rubbing off on him.
"You..."
Rin looked at him. "Are you serious? No regrets?"
"Absolutely no regrets!"
Kazuma only wanted to get rid of Aqua, this black hole of misfortune.
One more thing.
As a goddess, Aqua had a special aura.
This aura allowed her to maintain the sacred and noble image of a goddess at all tis.
The ani scene where she vomited a rainbow wasn't just for effect. It was a visual manifestation of the goddess's aura.
On top of that, Aqua's beauty was unreal.
Humans couldn't harbor blasphemous thoughts about her.
Even Kazuma, who spent every day with her, found her incredibly beautiful, but never felt any impure desires.
That was the divine aura of goddesses in Konosuba World.
Of course—
That kind of setting didn't work on Rin.
To him, Aqua was just Aqua. The goddess's aura had no effect on him.
"What about you, Aqua?"
Rin accepted Kazuma's decision, then turned to Aqua and asked for her opinion. "What do you plan to do?"
Though he did want to take her in, treating her like a traded item was still a bit much.
