(Harukin's POV)
- Alternate Konosuba World -
-----Adventurer's guild.
"Hello! My name is Haru and I'm a Arch Wizard. Nice to meet you girls." I normally introduced myself with a smile to them.
"Arch Wizard? But we already have an Arch Wizard in our party." Aqua said as she and Darkness glanced at Megumin.
"Oh... Ku ku ku... That we would meet is a fate chosen by the world itself! I have been anxiously waiting for a moment such as this!"
She did our clan's introduction pose.
"My name is Megumin! My calling is that of an arch wizard, one who controls explosion magic, the strongest of all offensive magic!"
(Img<<<)
I was overwhelmed as my body twitched, hearing her introduction.
Aqua went close to me,
"I'll just call you Haru then--Huh? What going on with you, Haru? Hey, Haru! Are you okay? Why is your face like that? You look really pale." Aqua worriedly asked me as she tap my cheek but I was not responding.
Instead while being in daze,
"Why are we still here? Just to suffer? Every night, I can feel my leg... And my arm... even my fingers... The body I've lost... the comrades I've lost... won't stop hurting... It's like they're all still there. You feel it, too, don't you? I'm gonna make them give back our past!" I keep mumbling.
She touched my forehead,
"Hey, Darkness! Haru is acting strange! He looks really sick. I think we should bring to the clinic quickly!" she panicked.
"Fu-fu.. Do you, too, desire my forbidden strength, which is so almighty, I've been ostracized by the entire world? Then show me thine resolve to peer into the ultimate abyss with me!" Megumin continued.
"Ugh!" I felt really cringey on her.
As I expected, I was still not immune to my clan's cringey introductions.
Megumin's crimson red eyes are both glowing in excitement.
"When a man stares into the abyss, the abyss stares back---"
I turned towards Aqua,
"Is something wrong with this little girl? I didn't understand a bit of what she's saying aside from her having a very strange name and being flat chested." I asked her while mocking Megumin.
Megumin glanced at me with menacing expression.
"What did you just say?"
I took a defensive stance against her.
Looking at her chest,
She's really flat as a washboard.
"Well... she's a member of the Crimson Demon Village which is all born with high intelligence and strong magic power. They are generally expert magicians... with some strange names." Aqua explained to me.
"Ah, okay... I understand now." I said as I'm doing this on purpose.
I actually don't want to tell them that I was s crimson demon too. Sometimes, I felt like I want to be treated like normal person too.
So... I have to resist myself from doing any Jojo reference and act like a normal person.
Sorry, Megumin...
"Oi! Did you just call me little girl? You even mocked me by calling me flat?" Megumin glaring close to my face.
I looked away from her.
"Anyway, don't worry about our party having two Arch Wizard, I can adjust my role because I'm actually an all rounder." I said, ignoring her and looking for a mission on the quest board.
"Hey! Why are you ignoring me?!" Megumin complained.
Seeing the quest of hunting beginner's bane or also known as Rookie Killer.
It's a large black, feline-like monster bigger than a Tiger. They are very cunning. They usually herd and protect groups of goblins, then use them to lure newbie adventurers.
I grew up hunting them since when I'm still a small child. It's meat can be tasty if you cook it properly.
Taking it, I showed it to them.
"We're taking this quest."
"Huh?"
---
- Several hours later -
------ Arriving at the location of the quest.
While walking together inside of forest, Megumin's eyes are focused on me.
She's still staring at me with annoyed expression.
"Hey, Haru... Where did our luggages go?" Aqua asked me.
Darkness glanced at me as she suspected me.
"Haru, don't tell me! Are you trying to steal our clothes especially our underwears and use it for lewd purposes? As I suspected, you are truly---"
"Stop with those stupid suspicions! I'm not even interested in any of the three of you. In the first place, I already have someone who's several times better than the three of you. And also, I already have adorable childrens." I retorted.
"Oh, about your luggages, I have a spacial storage which I can store all my things. It's very convenient when I travel from different places."
I opened my dimensional storage, taking out a normal sword.
"See?" I showed them my special ability.
"Woah..." Darkness and Megumin was amazed.
"You look too young to have children. How old actually are you?" Aqua curiously asked.
"I'm going to be 15 years old this year." I answered, lying to them.
"Huh? 15 years old? You have four daughters?"
"Yeah... but actually, there's five of them and all of them are my most adorable in the world." I responded with proud tone.
The three of them looked at me with weird expression.
Suddenly,
"Stop!" I halted our steps.
Ahead, I detected something approaching us.
*Rustle* *Rustle*
We heard a loud rustling sounds from trees.
We saw a large figure walking out from the bushes.
*Grrrrr...*
"This..." I was amazed by its large size.
I saw a bear monster coming out from our path and it's size in not normal.
"It's a Giant One-strike Bear."
Its meat might be smelly but it is a good ingredients for Nabe.
Nee-san and Komekko really loves it.
The three girls behind me was surprised with its large size until they snapped out of it.
Darkness immediately went in front of me, covering us.
"Stay behind!"
*Rawr!*
The Giant bear roared very loud.
I noticed that Darkness was breathing heavily.
"Huh?"
*Pant* *Pant*
"Looks like I won't be able to escape this monster unscathed. I wonder how will this monster mess me. Mmmmh!!" Darkness moaned, being turned on.
This hardcore masochist crusader...
As I expected, this is going to happen.
She looks very happy facing this monster.
Megumin walked beside me, doing different Chuuni poses.
"A giant One-shot Bear? Now is the time for me to teach it which of us has the stronger one-shot with my explosion magic!"
...
"Leave the healing to me. I watch you guys from the back." Aqua was slightly terrified, retreating back.
*Sigh*
I sighed, scratching the back of my head.
"You girls... This is not even our quest target--Huh?"
Not far from behind of the giant bear, I saw a figure of demon monster walking in group. They have a size of a human child and their skin has green color.
Some of them equipped with armor and different weapons.
"Goblins..." I said with menacing tone.
*Rumble* *Menacing*
(Img<<<)
An overwhelming magical power surged out of my body as I walked forward.
"Huh?" Aqua sensed it.
"What?!" Megumin was surprised.
Passing Darkness,
"Haru! It's dangerous!"
I ignored her, focusing only to the goblins ahead me.
*Raawwrrrr!*
The giant bear roared but it slowly retreated back and shrunk its body, being intimidated by me.
When I got closed to it,
Suddenly, it raised high its right paw and strike me down.
*Rawr!* *Thud!*
The giant bear hit me on my shoulders.
...
But I didn't flinch and it felt nothing.
Standing still while staring at the giant bear.
"Are you really a one-shot bear? Then my disappointment is immeasurable and my day is ruined. A monster creature like your should be called 'Tapping Bear'."
*Raawrrr!!*
The giant bear became furious, trying to strike me again.
Imbuing my right hand with my devil fruit, a bubble covered my fist and I slammed it to the side of the giant bear.
*Byouk!*
A crack appeared on the air around my fist.
*Crash*
I sent the giant bear flying, crashing in the distance.
My attack created a very powerful shockwave that the three girls behind me was pushed away.
"Waaahh!" Aqua panicked.
"Kyaah!" Darkness rolled the ground.
"Guhhh..." Megumin ducked down, holding her with hat.
"Stay there and I'll turn you into a delicious Nabe later."
Glancing at the group of Goblins,
"All goblins must be perish..."
Cracking my fist.
"There is no reason on this world to let those goblins live."
After that, we only hunted goblins for a whole day and we came back to the guild before dusk unable to finish the quest. It's because of rookie killer instinct that I'm very dangerous that they ran away quickly far away before we found them.
In this mission,
Rookie Killer killed: 0
Mission Failed.
1848 Goblins killed and 1 Giant Tapping Bear turned into Nabe.
We ate the Nabe together and it was delicious.
The three girls are very happy eating it but they were crying.
I guess I made it too delicious for them.
