"Thank you very much."
"No problem, Teleport!"
As soon as Green Coconut Slaughter finished speaking, their vision began to distort, and then the surrounding scenery changed.
The desolate plains before us have vanished, replaced by a tranquil and peaceful little settlement.
Green Coconut stepped forward, his back to the small settlement, opened his arms, and said with a beaming smile, "Welcome to the Crimson Devil Village! People outside, and Megumin and Yoyo, welcome back!"
"Is this the Scarlet Devil Village? It feels a little different." Aqua looked around.
"You've never been here before, so what's different?" Huihui asked.
"The Crimson Demon Clan has a great reputation, I thought it would be more... lively."
“I think so too…and wasn’t there supposed to be a crisis? Why is it so peaceful?” Darkness asked curiously.
“This…” Youyou looked at Green Coconut Slaughter.
"Huh? What's wrong?"
"Isn't the Demon King's army attacking our village?"
"What Demon King's Army? How dare the Demon King's Army! We have to go back to our patrol mission, bye-bye."
After Green Flower finished speaking, the other three people gathered around him, and he began to chant an incantation. Immediately afterwards, the four of them disappeared into thin air.
Shi Chen frowned slightly; he didn't sense any spatial fluctuations.
"...What exactly happened?" Darkness asked Youyou.
"I don't know either... I'll have to ask my dad," Youyou said awkwardly, feeling like she might have been lied to.
"I should ask... But you Red Demons are really amazing. As expected of great mages, using spatial teleportation magic to leave is so cool."
“Darkness, they didn’t use teleportation,” Megumin said.
"Eh?"
"They're just using the magic of refracting light to hide themselves."
Chapter 373 My sister brought back a man
"What do you mean?" Darkness asked, puzzled.
Yoyo explained, "Spatial teleportation magic consumes a lot of magic power. If it's used repeatedly after a battle, the magic power will be depleted quickly. Green Flower Coconut and the others won't have enough magic power to cast spatial teleportation magic... They just did it to show off their cool departure, so..."
call out--!
Suddenly, a small stone flew out of nowhere and caught it easily with quick reflexes.
"Shichen, thank you." Youyou looked at Shichen sweetly, wishing she could throw herself into his arms.
Shi Chen kept a close eye on her safety.
"It didn't have much power to begin with." Shi Chen smiled and shook his head, looking in the direction from which the stone had flown.
Darkness silently followed his gaze.
The little stone had no offensive power whatsoever; it was clearly meant to interrupt Youyou's speech and tell her to shut up.
This proves that what Youyou said was true.
Naturally, Green Coconut and the others hadn't left at all; they were still here.
"Oh right, the magic of refracting light involves creating a barrier with a radius of several meters centered on a person or object designated by the caster, making the magic inside the barrier invisible to those around... So, you can see it as long as you get close," Huihui reminded her.
"is it?"
Hearing her say that, Aqua became interested and walked in the direction from which the little stone had flown.
"Eh--!"
A surprised voice came clearly from ahead, followed by the faint sound of footsteps moving.
Aqua paused, staring intently at the empty space ahead.
"..."
The air fell silent, and then suddenly, Aqua charged straight ahead.
"Huh--!"
At the same time, another gasp of surprise rang out, followed by several chaotic footsteps.
"Hahaha, this is so interesting!" Aqua laughed as she chased after the invisible green cauliflower and slaughtered them.
And they refused to compromise and hid.
"Aqua, stop being naughty, let's go," Toki called out to her.
"Huh? Let me play a little longer~"
"..."
It took almost ten minutes before Aqua finally let Green Coconut kill them; she got tired of it after just a short while.
Afterwards, Shichen followed Huihui and the others into the Crimson Demon Village.
The first thing to do is to go to Youyou's house and find out what's going on. Youyou won't be able to rest easy until she understands the situation.
On the way, Aqua asked Megumin curiously, "Megumin, are those guys really that good? I couldn't even keep up with them."
As a goddess, Aqua has very high stats except for her intelligence and luck.
"Ha~"
Huihui chuckled softly: "They must have used physical enhancement magic. Those NEETs usually just lie around at home like corpses, how could they possibly have such strong stamina?"
“NEET? Didn’t they just say they were a guerrilla force of the Demon King’s army? They said they had a patrol mission to carry out when they left,” Darkness asked in confusion.
“Darkness, don’t believe them so easily. They’re just a bunch of unemployed idlers… Although they would be in high demand if they went to other towns to become adventurers, they just don’t want to leave this place. They’re just a bunch of parasites who can’t leave their parents.”
"real or fake?"
"Why would I lie to you? They're just bored out of their minds, so in order not to be seen as idle, they roam around the village and the surrounding area under the guise of the Demon King's Army guerrilla force."
"So that's how it is..." Darkness looked incredulous.
After all, even if they are NEETs, their abilities as great magicians are beyond doubt.
Youyou knew Darkness's thoughts, and she explained, "When the Crimson Demon Clan grows up, everyone learns advanced magic, and all the villagers' professions are archmages... Only after learning advanced magic, and when they have enough skill points, can they learn various other spells."
"So that's how it is... No wonder they're the Crimson Demon Clan."
"Ahem, this is common sense, yet some people..." Youyou glanced meaningfully at Huihui.
"What are you doing? Do you have a problem with this?" Huihui glared at her.
"No." Youyou immediately looked away.
"Hmph~ You've really lived up to expectations, You actually dared to talk about me like that."
"It's all because you cast Explosion Magic every day, then take up the time slots..."
"What? You have a problem with that? Then you can learn it too," Huihui said proudly, tilting her chin up.
"I don't want to learn!"
"That's settled then? Shi Chen didn't say anything... You're not jealous, are you? You want Shi Chen to carry you too, right?"
"I...I..." Youyou glanced at the time shyly, then turned her head away with a blush.
This clearly means they've admitted it.
"Youyou, if you want me to be with someone, just say so, and I'll definitely agree," Shichen said with a smile.
How could he possibly refuse the pressure of Youyou on his back?
"R-really?" Youyou asked excitedly.
"of course can."
"I see!"
In a cheerful mood, Youyou quickened her pace towards her home.
The road was very quiet. The Crimson Demon Village was a small village-sized settlement, and Crimson Demons could be seen everywhere in the village, but they didn't show any signs of tension on their faces.
It didn't look like a battle against the Demon King's army at all.
Soon, following Youyou, they arrived at the big house in the center of the village.
"This is my home, come in quickly."
"excuse me."
The large room was quiet. Shichen and the others followed Youyou to the reception room.
"I'll go get Dad. You can sit wherever you like." Youyou hurried off to find her father.
She was a little nervous, after all, Shi Chen and the others had come to her house, and she knew that no friends had ever come to her house before.
Not to mention the person you like.
They sat down at the coffee table and waited patiently.
A short while later, Youyou returned with a middle-aged man.
"Are you Youyou's adventure companions? Hello." Youyou's father focused his gaze on Shichen.
That's normal, since he's the only man there.
"Uncle, hello. I am Youyou's adventure companion, Shichen." Shichen introduced himself first.
Aqua and the others introduced themselves, and Frilian, unusually polite for once, also introduced herself.
"Hello... What brings you here?" Youyou's father was still staring at Shichen.
"Uncle, it's like this, what's the story behind the letter you sent to Youyou?" Shichen asked directly.
"That? That's a letter I sent to my daughter to report on her recent situation. But as I wrote, I got more and more excited. After all, I have the blood of the Crimson Demon Clan, so I really can't write letters with ordinary content."
"...What do you mean?" Shi Chen's lips twitched.
Youyou was also stunned: "Dad, Dad, although I'm very happy to see you safe and sound, can you explain what the first sentence of that letter means? [When you receive this letter, I will surely no longer be alive.]"
