"Mmm~~ this is so delicious!" gumin moaned, savoring the frog leg. It was the best al she had ever had since becoming an adventurer.
Due to her insistence on only using Explosion magic, she had been rejected by many parties and had never enjoyed such a luxurious al before.
And she had finally found people who acknowledged her. She was so lucky!
gumin glanced at Roy, then quickly lowered her head and continued eating with a blush.
Roy, noticing her gaze, smirked.
"Ahh~~ this is so good!" Aqua exclaid, taking a sip of her drink.
Roy had allowed her to have a drink since they had just completed a quest.
Aqua was a notorious alcoholic and had been quite insistent on having so booze.
After their satisfying al, gumin and Aqua returned to the inn to take a bath and rest.
Roy, however, stayed at the Adventurer's Guild, sipping his tea and waiting. He had seen a vision of Darkness arriving and asking to join their party through his Prophecy magic.
Darkness was also a 'problem child.' Her attacks never hit, so no party wanted her.
She would definitely be interested in joining their party after seeing Aqua's ridiculous recruitnt notice.
And Roy was quite interested in "training" this masochistic Crusader.
He had many ideas in mind, such as "bullet play" and other kinky things...
Soon—he saw a girl with blonde hair tied in a ponytail and clad in shining armor approaching the bulletin board.
It was Darkness.
She read the notice, scanned the guild hall, then walked towards Roy.
"I saw your recruitnt notice. Are you still looking for mbers?" she asked with a serious expression.
Roy, who had been observing her, couldn't help but be amused. She was a beautiful girl, and it was hard to believe that this noble lady was a masochist.
"Yes, we are," he replied with a smile.
"Really? That's great! I've been looking for a party like yours. My na is Darkness. I'm a Crusader, and I'd like to join your party," she said, her voice slightly breathless.
Noticing her flushed cheeks, Roy smirked. "Joining our party is fine, but there are so conditions."
"Tell ! I'll agree to anything," Darkness said with a determined nod.
"Oh? Even being tied up or forced to wear cat ears and a tail?"
Darkness's eyes widened, and her blush deepened. "Yes, I agree! Please let join your party!" she exclaid, her voice filled with excitent.
'What a kinky request! It seems I've found the right people,' she thought with a thrill.
Roy chuckled inwardly.
"Alright, then you're in."
"Thank you!" Darkness bowed deeply.
Roy suddenly had an idea. Darkness's family was a noble family, wasn't it? Perhaps he could ask them to send soone to teach Aqua so etiquette.
But that wasn't a priority right now.
"Darkness, I'm Roy—the leader of this party. Just call Roy," he said.
"Roy-san," Darkness repeated, then added with a blush, "Actually, there's sothing I'm not very good at—Although I'm confident in my strength and endurance, I can't hit anything!"
"That's not a problem. We already have a useless Goddess and an Arch Wizard who collapses after casting one spell. Adding a useless Crusader won't change much," Roy replied with a shrug and a grin.
"Ugh—how can you be so blunt about calling useless?!" Darkness exclaid, her face flushed with masochistic pleasure.
"Roy-san, although I'm a useless Crusader, I'll still do my best to protect the party. Please use as a shield as much as you like!" she declared, leaning closer to Roy until she was practically in his arms.
"Of course. Now, Darkness, go back and prepare. et us here tomorrow," Roy said, gently pushing her away.
"Yes, sir!" Darkness nodded and left.
Roy watched her leave with a smile. He rembered that Eris, the Goddess of Luck, was Darkness's friend.
The Dustiness family had been worshipping Eris for generations, and Darkness, due to her eccentric personality—had no friends.
But Eris was a kind, gentle, and generous Goddess who occasionally enjoyed playing pranks. She was also very responsible.
When Darkness had prayed to Eris for a friend, Eris had descended to the mortal world in the form of a thief nad Chris and befriended Darkness.
She had also been retrieving the cheat abilities that Aqua had given to other humans, essentially cleaning up Aqua's ss.
As the Goddess of Luck, she was unbeatable in gas of chance, such as drawing lots or rock-paper-scissors.
And she often used this to threaten Aqua.
....
The next day, Roy, Aqua, and gumin went to the Adventurer's Guild.
"Roy, you're saying that after we went back last night, you recruited another party mber?" Aqua asked, surprised. She was curious about who he had recruited.
"That's right. A Crusader with an advanced job," Roy confird with a nod and a smile.
"Really? That's great!" Aqua exclaid.
Having another advanced job holder in their party was definitely a good thing.
"By the way, Roy, you've leveled up, right? Do you want to learn so new skills? Like Explosion?" gumin suddenly chid in.
"I rember you're a Magic Swordsman, Roy—That ans you can learn magic now." Aqua also expressed her interest.
"How about learning my water magic?"
Roy's lips twitched. Even Aqua, the Goddess of water, couldn't compare to him when it ca to water magic.
Although his natural affinity was ice, he was still proficient in water magic.
As for Explosion magic, he had already learned it.
"I'll pass on the water magic, Aqua. But I wouldn't mind learning Explosion," Roy replied.
He had learned Explosion after witnessing gumin cast it.
He had to admit, Explosion was a powerful spell. If he used it, he could easily destroy the planet.
The power of Explosion was determined by the caster's magic power. The more magic power, the stronger the explosion.
And once learned, it was like a skill ingrained in one's DNA, easily cast at will.
So, gumin's long and dramatic incantation was just her being chuunibyou.
"See, see? Explosion is the strongest!" gumin exclaid, throwing her arms around Roy in excitent.
"Calm down, little girl," Roy chuckled, gently pushing her away.
gumin froze, hearing his words.
"L-Little girl? He called a little girl?" she mumbled, her face pale.
It seed the term "little girl" was a serious blow to her pride.
But she was indeed a little girl.
Roy patted her head and said with a smile, "Yes, gumin, you're an adorable little girl."
"C-Cute... um..." gumin blushed, flustered by the complint.
Just then, they heard footsteps approaching.
"A lolicon? This..." Darkness stared at Roy with wide eyes, her finger pointing at him accusingly.
"This is amazing! I knew I was right about you!" she exclaid, her face flushed with excitent.
Roy's eye twitched. Darkness's loud outburst had attracted the attention of everyone in the guild hall.
"Scary!" Chris, who was standing behind Darkness, pretended to be frightened, her arms wrapped around herself.
Of course, she was just ssing with them.
"Who is this?" Roy asked, pretending not to know Chris.
"Haha, I'm Chris, a thief—And a friend of Darkness," Chris replied with a playful wink.
"Nice to et you, Chris. Call Roy."
"By the way, I heard you leveled up. Would you be interested in learning so thief skills?" Chris offered.
She was grateful to Roy for accepting Darkness into his party.
"Thief skills, huh? Sure, I wouldn't mind learning a few," Roy replied with a shrug.
He was particularly interested in the Steal skill, which could randomly steal items from others.
"Then follow !" Chris said with a grin.
She led them out of the guild hall and into an isolated alley.
