"Kazuma san… what is this place?"
Yunyun held Megumin's hand as we strode forth into the dark forest. Just like before, Darkness led the way at front and the rest of us follows. Some floating flames of light surrounded us to provide lighting and to scare away wild animals.
"This is the Devil's Keep Forest, I have some unfinished business in this place," I explained while petting medium sized Liz walking beside me.
"Walking through this forest… It reminds me of the time when I fall from grace," Darkness said from the front. "When the devious Kazuma sold me in his quest for power… When those wild… things… Ahn…"
Yeah, no regrets.
Soon enough, we made it in the middle of a large clearing. A gigantic flower surrounded by vines stood in the middle of the clearing. At the top of the flower is a beautiful girl with light green skin and red hair wearing nothing to hide her beautiful figure.
"Hi Elena! Long time no see!"
The plant girl took one look at us before huffing in annoyance. "Oh great, it's you. What do you want? You shameless perv," she said.
"Aww, don't be like that Elena chan, I'm just here to visit you, aren't you lonely being here all alone?"
Elena rolled her eyes and climbed out of the flower. She landed right in front of us and looked at each and every single one of us. "Hmm… Looks like you've caught yourself another female," she said. "Who's that?"
Yunyun stepped forward and flicked her cloak. "I am Yunyun! The one who has mastered many advanced spells and the fifth member of Fantastic Dreamers!" she made another pose before bowing a little. "Pleased to meet you, please take care of me…"
"Afternoon Yunyun, I'm Elena, the ruler of this forest," the ruler of the forest folded her arms and looked at me. "Well? What do you want?"
"I'm inviting you to my wedding,"
"WHAT!?"
It wasn't just Elena, everyone else in my party voiced their shock and surprise at this. Even my dearest girlfriend who's supposed to know about this.
"Wh-what do you mean wedding? What do you mean Kazuma!?" Megumin stuttered
"I'm planning on proposing you on the Crimson Demon Village. As for how and when," I winked at her a little. "That's for you for me to plan and you to worry about," then I turned back to Elena. "And that's that, what do you think plant girl?"
"Don't call me Plant Girl!" then she looked away from us. "And… Well, I don't mind…"
"Thanks!" I turned towards my party members and saw them staring at me in disbelief. "What? Why are you guys so surprised?"
"Are you saying that…" Darkness put a hand over her face and sighed a little. "You, Kazuma, are you going to the Crimson Demon Village for the wedding, with no intention of saving it?"
"Trust me, saving that village is easier than planning a wedding," then I turned to Aqua. "Aqua, you're going to help right?"
"Help you with what?"
"With a lot and I will double your pay for two weeks."
"Five weeks"
"a month,"
Aqua looked up in deep thought. "Okay, deal,"
With that, we all left the Devil's Keep Forest. This time, with a certain plant girl tagging along with us.
