The next day, after searching for a while, they finally found a suitable property.
But before they could buy it, they had to help the owner get rid of so ghosts in the graveyard.
This was the haunted mansion from the original story.
They accepted the quest and went to the graveyard at night.
But they weren't alone.
"Damn undead! Are you the one causing trouble here?" Aqua shouted, charging towards a figure standing in the graveyard.
Her Divine power was ineffective against most monsters but was the natural enemy of the undead.
Her attack instantly interrupted the figure's spellcasting.
Roy's eyes lit up. The figure was Wiz—a Lich and a forr Demon King General.
She had once been the leader of the strongest adventurer party. Although she wasn't a Crimson Demon, she was proficient in various magic.
Due to her ruthlessness towards monsters, she was also called the "Ice Witch."
To save her cursed companion—she had beco a Lich with the help of the Demon Duke, Vanir.
She had served as one of the Demon King's Generals—responsible for maintaining the barrier around the Demon King's castle.
Now, she was the owner of a magic item shop in Axel, struggling to make ends et.
It was hard to imagine that the once cold and ruthless Wiz had beco a ditzy and impoverished shopkeeper.
Roy found her quite endearing.
....
"Eek! Help!" Wiz shrieked, suddenly feeling a powerful Divine aura that disrupted her spellcasting.
A wave of fear washed over her—and she saw a blinding light heading towards her.
Aqua's Divine power was deadly to the undead.
At the last mont, soone stepped in front of her and caught Aqua's fist.
"Aqua, can you at least figure out what's going on before attacking?" Roy sighed.
"Eh? Roy—didn't you see this undead causing trouble?" Aqua asked, pointing at Wiz.
Wiz, terrified—hid behind Roy like a scared kitten.
She was now utterly terrified of Aqua.
And she had also guessed that Aqua was a goddess.
Otherwise—she wouldn't feel such a strong sense of danger.
"Idiot, can't you see she's exorcising the spirits?" Roy said, flicking Aqua's forehead lightly.
Aqua clutched her head. "But she's just an undead!" she protested.
"But she is exorcising the spirits, isn't she?" Darkness chid in, defending Wiz.
"What's your na?" Roy asked, turning to Wiz.
"I'm Wiz... a Lich, as you can see. I'm exorcising the spirits here," Wiz replied nervously.
Since her identity had been exposed, she had no choice but to confess.
"A Lich!" gumin exclaid, her eyes wide with surprise.
Darkness frowned. She felt like she had seen Wiz sowhere before, but she couldn't rember where.
"Hmph! She's still an undead. Take this!" Aqua declared, charging towards Wiz again.
Wiz quickly hid behind Roy, realizing that he was her only protector now.
"Idiot, don't just attack any undead you see! Can't you see she's helping us?" Roy said, stopping Aqua.
He sighed inwardly.
He turned to Wiz and said with a reassuring smile, "Don't worry, Wiz. I won't let Aqua hurt you. But we've accepted the quest to exorcise the spirits here, so we'll take over."
Wiz was touched.
"Thank you. Then I'll be going now." She bowed and quickly left.
She was truly afraid of Aqua.
"Why did you let her go?" Aqua complained, pouting.
"She's not a bad person. Now, let's exorcise these spirits," Roy said with a shrug.
Aqua, although still unhappy, didn't argue and started exorcising the spirits.
As an Arch Priest—this was a simple task for her.
Roy rembered that in the original story, Aqua had been too lazy to exorcise all the spirits, which had led to them infesting the mansion.
This ti, he made sure she finished the job properly.
"Haa... I'm exhausted," Aqua said, collapsing onto Roy, who caught her.
"Since the quest is complete, let's go back and check out that mansion," Roy suggested.
"Okay!" Aqua perked up at the ntion of the mansion.
gumin and Darkness also nodded eagerly.
They reported their success at the Adventurer's Guild, then went to et the owner of the mansion and bought it.
....
The mansion was quite dilapidated. It was no wonder it was being sold.
Even Roy found it a bit too shabby. He waved his hand.
The mansion was instantly renovated.
Aqua, gumin, and Darkness stared in awe.
"Roy, what... what kind of magic is that?"
"That's... incredible!"
"It's even better than Divine power."
....
Roy chuckled, amused by their reactions.
"Let's go inside. This is our new ho," he said, leading the way.
"Ho?" The girls exchanged glances, a hint of anticipation in their eyes, then followed him inside.
"Wow! It's so beautiful!" gumin exclaid, marveling at the interior.
Even Darkness was impressed. The decorations here were even more luxurious than those in her family's mansion.
Aqua, however, wasn't interested in the decorations. She was drawn to a large and comfortable-looking bed.
She jumped onto it and started rolling around happily.
"This bed is so soft!"
gumin and Darkness also couldn't resist the temptation and joined her on the bed.
....
....
Winter arrived—and life settled into a peaceful routine.
Roy found himself a bit bored. Aside from his daily "training" with Darkness, there wasn't much to do.
As the weather grew colder, gumin and Aqua also beca less inclined to go on quests.
Roy even considered just defeating the Demon King to end this "ga" early.
But he decided against it. After all, Yunyun, gumin's rival, hadn't appeared yet.
He couldn't end this adventure without eting her.
....
One day, Kazuma unexpectedly visited them.
"Haha, Roy, I didn't expect you to beco such a famous adventurer in such a short ti. I found this place easily just by asking around," Kazuma said, a confident grin on his face as he sat in the living room, dressed in an expensive fur coat.
It seed his dream of becoming a successful rchant had co true.
"Of course. We've already defeated a Demon King General. We'll be taking on the Demon King himself soon," Aqua declared proudly.
"Really? Congratulations," Kazuma said with a forced smile.
He felt a mix of emotions, but he quickly pushed them aside.
They chatted for a while, and Kazuma shared his experiences as a rchant.
To Roy's surprise, Kazuma had beco a regular at the Succubus Pub, having invented several "useful" gadgets for them.
Roy knew about the Succubus Pub in this town, but he had never been there.
"Roy, I have sothing to discuss with you in private," Kazuma suddenly said, leaning closer.
"Huh? What is it that you can't tell in front of everyone?" Aqua asked suspiciously.
gumin and Darkness also looked at them curiously.
"Um..." Kazuma blushed, embarrassed.
Roy, curious about what he wanted to say, agreed.
"Aqua, could you and the others excuse us for a mont?"
"Ugh... fine."
Aqua reluctantly left the living room, followed by Darkness and gumin.
"Alright, you can talk now," Roy said to Kazuma.
"Heh." Kazuma grinned and pulled out a card, whispering, "This is a secret for n. With this card, you can enjoy the services of a succubus! How about it? Want to try it?"
So that was it. Roy's interest waned. He had Darkness at ho, and he was planning to "conquer" gumin soon.
He wasn't interested in visiting the Succubus Pub.
"Sorry, I'm not interested," Roy said with a chuckle, declining the offer.
"Eh?" Kazuma's face fell. He had been confident that Roy would accept.
"Why? Is it because...?"
He suddenly realized that Roy had several beautiful girls in his party, especially that blonde girl with an impressive figure.
He sighed in defeat.
"Alright then. Sorry to bother you."
He left, feeling dejected.
"....."
"Roy, what did he say to you?" Aqua asked as she and the others returned to the living room.
"What's this?" Darkness picked up the card on the table.
"Succubus services..." she read aloud, then blushed.
"Succubus services?! Roy, how could you?!" Aqua exclaid.
"You have so many beautiful girls at ho!" gumin added.
"Am I just a toy to be used and discarded?!" Darkness cried dramatically.
"You idiots! What are you thinking?!" Roy said, flicking Aqua and gumin and Darkness on their foreheads.
"That was just sothing Kazuma left behind. I'm not interested in succubi."
"Really?" Aqua asked suspiciously.
"Of course. Why would I need succubi when I have all of you beautiful girls?" Roy sighed.
gumin and Darkness blushed.
Aqua, however, took a step back with a suspicious look on her face.
"So you do have ulterior motives towards !" she accused.
Roy rolled his eyes and didn't bother explaining.
He simply gave her a look that said, "Use your brain."
Aqua, seeing his expression, exploded.
"What's with that look?! Are you looking down on ? I'm a goddess!" she shouted, jumping on him and hitting him playfully.
But after Roy spanked her a few tis, she cald down....
