"By the way, I forgot to ask when I changed the subject just now! Why did you two come back so early today?"
Aqua suddenly remembered the interrupted topic.
As soon as this question was uttered, Darkness and Hui Hui instantly became embarrassed.
"A-actually..."
"That, this... For some reason, I, we..."
The two women faltered, unable to tell the cause and effect for a long time, Akuya was anxiously waiting.
Just when she wanted to ask further, Sato Kazuma ran back from the outside.
"It's not good, it's not good—!"
He rushed in hastily, because he didn't pay attention to the protrusion of the stone slab under his feet, he almost fell a big somersault.
This was enough to see how flustered he was.
"Stupid Kazuma! I can't see your figure every day, where did you go!"
Speaking of which, Akua didn't know that Kazuma Sato had temporarily joined another team, abandoned them and turned into someone else's embrace.
If she found out, there would definitely be a big fuss again.
"Leave that aside, haven't you heard the village radio?"
Sato Kazuma said anxiously: "Hurry up, hurry up and gather at the entrance of the village!"
"What, what's the matter... What the **** happened!"
Akuya was a little frightened by his tone, and couldn't help becoming frightened.
"Could it be...Could it be that Kazuma got into a catastrophe and was approached by other powerful adventurers and asked to fight to the death at the entrance of the village? So Kazuma, you came back to rescue the soldiers?"
Sometimes, you have to admire the brain circuits of the mentally retarded.
It is very unexpected every time, giving you endless surprises (xia).
Really have your Aqua!
"How is it possible, you stupid goddess who doesn't use your brain!!"
Sure enough, Kazuma Sato turned into the Roaring Emperor in an instant, and said mercilessly: "I am a good man who treats others with courtesy and kindness, how could I conflict with others!"
This guy, where does he have the polite and kind attitude he said?
There must be a limit to being thick-skinned, Sato-kun!
Akuya wanted to fight back at first, but she held back abruptly in the next second, because what Sato Kazuma said was really surprising.
"It's one of the cadres of the Demon King's Army, the Headless Horseman!"
Sato Kazuma quickly explained the reason.
"I don't know why, that guy is blocking the entrance of the village to prevent anyone from going out, and he is still saying 'I must make you look good', 'You wait for me', 'I will definitely teach you a deep lesson'. If people care."
"All the adventurers in the village have gone, so, let's hurry to meet up too!"
Sato Kazuma urged everyone to act quickly.
"A member of the Demon King's Army—?!"
Aqua couldn't sit still when she heard about the Demon King's Army. She didn't forget the information she heard from Wiz a few days ago.
To enter the Demon King's Castle, all the officers of the Demon King's Army must be wiped out.
It just so happens that the headless horseman is delivered to your door, so why not accept it?
The opportunity to weaken the Demon King's army is at hand!
"Wu!"
Akuya turned her head to look at Zhou Fangwu, the meaning was self-evident.
"Okay, as the first step for the [Hero] team to become famous in the world, let's meet that headless horseman!"
Zhou Fangwu, as the captain of the team, issued orders, calling for everyone to rectify quickly.
"Satou-kun, you are the fastest, so go to the entrance of the village to meet other adventurers first, and then find out why the Headless Horseman came here!"
"learn!"
Sato Kazuma turned and ran, and disappeared from everyone's sight in the blink of an eye.
"Akuya, Megumin, you two also set off immediately!
If any adventurer is injured or injured, please ask Aqua to treat him, and if the Headless Horseman wants to attack the town, please ask Megumi to stop him with explosion magic! "
"Yes!"
"OK!"
After thinking about it, he felt unsafe, and then said, "Hui Hui, you can use [that] when necessary!"
"clear!"
Huihui followed Akuya and turned to leave. After getting Zhou Fangwu's permission, her aura instantly changed, becoming extremely high-spirited and passionate.
"Darkness, I will take your giant shield."
"No, no need, I'll do it myself..."
"Time is short, so stop putting it off! For now, sharing the weight is the wisest choice!"
Darkness is a heavily armored crusader, and her armor is extremely heavy, not to mention carrying a huge 200kg shield.
In order to share her weight and speed up, Zhou Fangwu could only help.
After all, the other three are weak and fragile professionals with no physical strength at all.
"quick!"
"Okay, okay!"
Zhou Fangwu rushed out first, and Darkness also hurriedly followed.
Not long after, the team members gathered at the entrance of the village.
"Is that the Headless Horseman..."
headless rider
Let's use it to represent.
Its appearance is very similar to the legendary headless horseman, except that it has a head, but the head of the horse has disappeared, which is very weird.
The timid sense of oppression, the evil magic power like the abyss descending, is declaring to people that it is a monster that symbolizes the despair brought by death!
The moment he saw it, Zhou Fangwu confirmed it.
- It is a strong enemy!
He who simply thought it was not strong was a big fool!
The knight in pitch-black armor standing in front of the main entrance held his head around his waist with his left hand, and under the watchful eyes of all the adventurers, he handed his head covered in the helmet in front of everyone.
"Everyone is here, so let me introduce myself! I am one of the cadres of the Demon King's Army, and I moved to a nearby castle not long ago..."
It slowly opened its mouth to tell where it came from, and at the end its head began to tremble slightly.
"Every, every day, every day! The crazy idiot who comes to my castle every day and releases the explosion magic, who is it—!!"
The headless horseman seemed to be extremely angry, and even his headless mount let out a long hiss to vent its dissatisfaction for its master.
But what it said awakened Zhou Fangwu.
Explosion magic?
"Speaking of explosion magic..."
"Hiss, explosion magic is..."
"That's right, she is the one who can use Explosion Magic..."
The adventurers began to whisper.
After a while, Zhou Fangwu followed the gazes of the other adventurers and turned to Huihui who was standing aside.
At first he wanted to deny it, but after seeing Huihui's cold sweat, Zhou Fangwu confirmed his inner guess.
Absolutely right, the culprit is you!
its not right!
Didn't you go to training with Darkness, why did you provoke the Headless Horseman!
After the explosion magic is used up, the whole body will be weak, and someone must be on the sidelines to watch it.
In this case, the only accomplice is you...
He shifted his gaze to Darkness again, staring at her flushed face.
"Darkness, you..."
"That's not the case! Huihui said, [it's not that big and thick things can't satisfy her at all] that's why...!"
Hey, shut up!
Don't say such seriously contradictory words while your face is rosy!
I see.
Everything is explained.
No wonder when asked why they came back so early, the two of them hesitated.
It turned out that after being discovered by the headless horseman, he hid in fear.
"Wu..."
Hui Hui lowered her head, her small face was pale, and she tightly held Zhou Fangwu's hand.
Her hands were cold and trembling.
Huihui was very scared, Zhou Fangwu could feel it.
He comforted her with a voice: "It's okay, Huihui, you didn't do anything wrong."
"…real?"
"Ah! It's the Demon King's Army, so what's wrong with casting explosion magic on it?"
"Um."
After Huihui was comforted, a stiff smile appeared on her pale face.
Then let go of your hands, making a gesture to go out.
She wants to bear the consequences alone.
But Zhou Fangwu held her hand instead, and she walked out one step ahead of her.
It looked like Zhou Fangwu took the initiative to lead her.
When the adventurers saw them coming out, they gave way to the headless horseman.
"You two are... that's you—!!"
The Headless Horseman looked at the two of them, and seemed to know something after seeing the wand in Hui Hui's hand.
"Are you that big idiot who runs to cast explosion magic on my castle every day!?
If you want to fight with me because you know that I am an officer of the Demon King's Army, then attack the castle openly!
If you don't have that intention, just obediently hide in the town and tremble!
Why do you want to trouble me with such insidious means?
I know there are only low-level adventurers in this town!
I originally wanted to say that this kind of town with only small characters should be left alone!
As a result, you, a guy who doesn't understand the situation, actually come here every day to bang your magic...
I think you have a brain problem—! ! "
The Headless Horseman's head shook violently, and it could be seen that his anger was very strong.
It should be the reason why he was so bored by the explosive magic for a week.
"I'm sorry, my great magister has caused you trouble."
Zhou Fangwu pressed Huihui's head, and bowed to apologize to it, "Really, I'm sorry!"
"Huh?"
The Headless Horseman was also overwhelmed by this sincere apology, thinking that the opponent would be tougher.
"Well, if that Crimson Demon girl doesn't release explosion magic anymore..."
"Then you might as well tell me to die!"
Before the Headless Horseman finished speaking Huihui said excitedly: "The Crimson Demons must release the explosion magic once a day, otherwise they will die!"
"Hey, I've never heard of such a thing, don't lie to me!"
The Headless Horseman didn't want to be too entangled, because that would make him look petty, so he wanted to give Huihui a step, and said, "As long as you don't release the explosion magic, it's not impossible to let you go."
"I don't want it! I don't want it even if I die!" Huihui stubbornly refused.
After the Headless Horseman realized that he could not be persuaded, he began to exude an extremely dangerous aura.
"No matter what, you don't intend to give up the explosion magic, do you? It seems that you should be taught a profound lesson."
Its tone is very evil, with a warm and angry feeling.
"Lesson? It seems that our negotiation broke down."
Zhou Fangwu noticed that there was something in its words, and then it seemed to be asking and explaining.
"Let me introduce myself, my name is Zhou Fangwu, I am a master swordsman and the captain of the [Heroes] team.
Mr. Headless Horseman over there, what's your name? "
"My name... that's fine, I'll tell you. My name is Beldia, my occupation... Let's say I'm a knight, and I'm also one of the eight cadres of the Demon King's Army!"
The two sides have introduced themselves.
"Then, meet Mr. Beldia for the first time, and then see you again."
Zhou Fangwu said something abruptly.
"Do it, Huihui!"
"Yes, I have been waiting for a long time!"
Huihui held the magic spar in her left hand, held up her magic wand in her right hand, and shouted excitedly with red eyes:
"—!!"
When meeting for the first time, burst hands to show respect!
