"No, no need, I'll just stay here and block its attacks for you! Hehehe~"

"You're kidding me!" Shi Chen kicked her in the butt in an annoyed tone.

"what?"

Darkness lay sprawled on the ground, turning her head to look at Shichen in disbelief.

"You...you actually kicked my butt? What...what a perverted person you are!"

Darkness wasn't angry; in fact, she was a little excited.

"..."

Shichen, too lazy to leave her, came to her side, pressed her shoulders, and led her back to Huihui and the others.

"Darkness, are you alright?" Chris asked worriedly as he approached.

"N-nothing, but what's the deal with that man?" Darkness stared intently at Shichen's back.

"He's the one who was rumored to be here before, the adventurer with the highest stats across all attributes."

"So it was him! Although he's not my type, he seems to satisfy me..."

"What are you talking about?" Chris looked at her speechlessly.

"No, it's nothing..."

"Aqua, treat Darkness," Toki said to Aqua, ignoring Darkness.

"it is good......"

"No need!" Darkness quickly stopped them. "You should conserve your magic to fight the demons first."

"Fine......"

Shi Chen felt that Darkness was just reluctant to let go of the pain she was experiencing, but she was actually fine.

"Brother Shi, how should we deal with it?" Sato Kazuma nervously approached Shi Chen.

"It's actually very simple," Toki replied softly. "Aqua's exorcism magic alone can solve it, but today I'm going to show you how powerful Megumin is."

"Is Aqua that powerful?"

"After all, she's a goddess."

“That makes sense... So does that mean I don’t need to do anything?” Sato Kazuma relaxed.

"No, you can throw some weapons later to gain some experience points."

"I see!"

"Megumin, get ready. Aqua, just seal Houst away in a bit. Don't use exorcism magic. Yuyu, just throw out a couple of spells to deal some damage."

"Ready!"

"OK~"

"understand!"

"Humans, are you ready?" Houst asked.

"You really don't take us seriously at all, do you?" Shi Chen shook his head.

"After all, they are both Crimson Demons... I'm going to begin my attack!"

"Fine, we will attack you with the utmost respect."

"Excellent! Hellfire!"

Houster faced Shichen with his palm, and then flames erupted, the scorching heat rushing towards them.

"Sacred Fire".

At the same time, their palms faced each other, and then a ball of golden flame flew out and rushed towards the raging fire.

An incredible scene unfolded: the fiery red flames were slowly consumed by the golden flames!

"What is this?" Houst asked incredulously.

"Now is not the time to be distracted, Aqua!"

"Alright, seal it!"

A magic circle flew toward Houster, and Houster suddenly became frozen in place.

"this is!?"

"Host, from now on, enjoy the same treatment as Anies."

"what?"

"Yuyu, Kazuma, Megumin!"

"Behold my flying sword!"

"Fireball!"

The short sword flew towards Houster, along with a fireball, but it did little damage to him. Just then, Huihui's staff gathered seven-colored magic power, and layers of magic circles gathered above Houster's head.

Huihui began chanting the incantation: "This is the primordial flame, this is the flame of the end, past, present, future, forbidden power beyond all things, flame, I am the destroyer..."

"Heh~" Houst chuckled softly in the face of this astonishing magic.

"Explosion—!"

The seven-colored magic instantly blasted towards Houster, its light drawing everyone's attention.

Chapter 126 Obedience Means No Spanking

"Huihui, you're amazing! I'm really impressed with you! No wonder Brother Shi made you his teammate, it wasn't just because he's a lolicon."

"Hmm?" Shichen raised an eyebrow and looked at Sato Kazuma.

"Ahem, well, slip of the tongue, slip of the tongue, hahaha, I'll lead the way!" Sato Kazuma chuckled and quickened his pace to run to the front of the group.

They were on their way back to town. Instead of using spatial magic to take everyone back directly, Shichen carried Huihui on his back and walked slowly.

Incidentally, Darkness and Chris also came back with them.

"Is this man... a lolicon? It seems he might actually satisfy me..." Darkness and Chris lagged behind, muttering to themselves with strange smiles.

“Darkness, what did you just say?” Chris didn’t hear her clearly.

No... there's nothing there.

"You're not going to tell me, are you? Aren't we good friends?"

"I only teamed up with you to prevent you from continuing to steal, have you forgotten that?"

"Huh? I thought we were already friends..." Chris said sadly.

"Ah—well...actually, being friends isn't a bad idea, as long as you don't steal from my mansion anymore." Darkness panicked.

“I already told you it was to find you… Fine, this is fine too.” Chris shook his head helplessly.

She initially broke into Darkness's house to distract her and become her friend, but ended up getting caught instead. She never gave up, and finally managed to get Darkness to team up with her to stop her from stealing.

Although the outcome was somewhat different from her plan, at least the goal was achieved.

On the way back, Aqua was the noisiest one.

"Shichen, Shichen, wasn't I amazing? Is there a reward? I want some sparkling wine~"

"Great, great. I'll buy you some sparkling wine when we get back to the hotel, a few bottles, please."

"Really? Shichen, you're amazing!"

"Toki, you seem to spoil Aqua a lot, even though I'm the one who deserves the most credit." Megumin said with dissatisfaction, lying weakly on Toki's back.

"I've already carried you on my back, what more do you want? And all I'm doing is making you the biggest contributor."

"Tch~ I don't care, I solved it!"

"Alright, alright, you're the biggest contributor, okay?" Shi Chen replied perfunctorily.

"There's no sincerity at all, but oh well, I'm just being magnanimous."

"You really..."

"Shichen, are we still going to hunt down the giant frog today?" Youyou asked from the other side of Shichen.

"Let's call it a day. The reward for defeating the demon is quite substantial, and besides, Megumin can't do anything today."

"I...we can come together..." Youyou's voice trailed off.

"What did you say?"

"No, nothing..."

"Really? Then have a good rest this afternoon."

"OK......"

Back at the guild, Shichen reported the results to Luna.

Luna was surprised that Shichen and the others had resolved the matter so quickly. Not much time had passed, but the adventurer's card had a record of it, which couldn't be faked.

The rewards for defeating demons are substantial, especially for high-ranking demons. Even if they share the spoils equally with Darkness and the others, it's enough to fill Shichen and his group's pockets.

Shi Chen wasn't too concerned about money, so he treated the adventurers present to a good meal and drinks.

The people in this world are all pretty nice, and he doesn't mind trying to win their favor.

However, it was still early for lunch. Unlike the adventurers who spent all their time in the guild and could eat and drink anytime, Shichen said goodbye to Luna and prepared to return to the inn.

"What are your plans?" Shichen asked Darkness and the others after leaving the guild.

"Us? We should be fine today, we're planning to rest. That demon caused quite a bit of damage," Chris replied, glancing at Aqua who was constantly muttering about sparkling wine.

"Really? Should we have Aqua reply to you?"

"No need, no need," Chris quickly waved his hand in refusal.

"It's free..."

"No need, no need. You must be tired too. We just need to rest for a bit to recover, right Darkness?"
