"This place looks suspicious at first glance. Maybe it hides some kind of treasure like a sealed holy sword! Isn't that what they always say in traditional RPGs?"
"..." Upon hearing this, everyone's expressions became even more complicated, and their gazes towards Aqua became as if they were looking at some kind of animal.
It's obvious that if such a thing really existed inside, there would be no need for brave souls to gamble; someone would have already delivered it to their doorstep!
"Aqua." Subaru Natsuki finally couldn't help but complain with a helpless expression, "In traditional RPGs, casinos do have magical artifacts, but this isn't a traditional RPG!"
Have you ever seen a respectable demon king or king hide their ultimate weapon in a casino?
Is it because they're worried the brave warriors won't be able to win, so they deliberately left a pay-to-win option?
"Ugh, trying to reason with her is like casting pearls before swine." Kazuma cracked his knuckles expressionlessly.
Before Aqua could react, he precisely raised his hand and delivered a crisp flick to the empty head.
thump—
After a muffled thud, Aqua crouched on the ground, clutching her head, her eyes instantly reddening: "Waaah! Kazuma, what are you doing?!"
"Great, problem solved." Kazuma glanced at Aqua, who was still groaning on the ground, and rolled his eyes inwardly.
Are you kidding me?
If the casino truly possessed a weapon to defeat the Demon King, he would have been tied to a slot machine by a group of gamblers long ago and shaken to achieve the game's ending.
Chapter 1281 The Goddess of Healing Actually Lost to Herbs? She Was Set Up by Capital!
Seiya showed absolutely no interest in entertainment venues like taverns and casinos, and continued walking forward with steady steps, finally stopping in front of the prop shop.
"Guest, this is a limited-edition item, made from top-grade herbs. It has three times the effect and recovery power of ordinary herbs!"
"Really?" Despite the shop owner's enthusiastic greeting, Seiya's face remained expressionless. "If you're lying, I'll burn your shop down, okay?"
"Of course... how could that be!" The shop owner's bright smile instantly froze on his face, and he repeatedly assured everyone that the goods he sold were genuine and absolutely not a scam.
"Okay, then I'll buy some." Hearing the shopkeeper's assurance, Seiya's expression finally softened slightly, and he calmly held up one finger: "Give me a thousand first."
"Only a thousand?? Considering the cautious and brave hero's style, a thousand is indeed a bit restrained... Could it be that he hasn't had much of an appetite lately?"
"Stomach my foot! Did the person upstairs leave their brain in the newbie village? He's buying herbs, not vegetables! Do you want to buy a few pounds and put them in the fridge too...?"
The audience watching the video was already quite used to the little things that the cautious and brave man said.
In their view, a thousand herbs were likely just the limit of the shop owner's inventory, but definitely not the upper limit that this cautious hero hoped for.
Based on their understanding of the cautious and brave man, if conditions allowed, he would absolutely do something like eating herbs instead of food!
Although it sounds very unscientific, it is sacred.
Grand Carnival World
Upon seeing this, Jeanne Alter's lips twitched uncontrollably a few times, and she couldn't help but complain, "Seriously, what's the point of him buying so many herbs...?"
Hoarding herbs in front of the goddess of healing is comparable to Saber showing off three buckets of rice in front of Gawain while not touching the mashed potatoes at all.
That's absolutely devastating—it's like killing someone by attacking their spirit!
Hei Dai, standing to the side, remained expressionless upon hearing this, his eyes as cold as thousand-year-old ice. He coldly said, "If I'm not mistaken, it should be used as reserve food."
Joan of Arc Alter nodded expressionlessly, reading aloud without any emotion: "Great guess. I suggest you just shut up next time."
Who buys medicinal herbs for their food reserves? They might as well just buy vegetables directly…
Joan of Arc tilted her head, her golden braids swaying over her shoulders, her confused expression like that of a white dove that had wandered into a battlefield: "That... is used to restore HP?"
"You'd better just shut your mouth, you country bumpkin." Jeanne Alter rolled her eyes speechlessly. "Do you really need to say something like that, since even a three-year-old could figure it out?"
“But, Joan of Arc Alter…” Even after being scolded, Joan of Arc still smiled gently, lightly tapping her chin with her fingertips: “Don’t you think it’s more worthwhile to use it for recovery than to use it for food reserves?”
After all, that healing goddess doesn't really seem very reliable...
Given the hero's cautious nature, which is even more steadfast than a city wall, it is indeed reasonable for him to stock up on some herbs now.
Joan of Arc Alter was also somewhat surprised to hear this. She didn't expect that this uneducated village girl would have some brains. She thought she could only recite speeches.
"Oh dear, I think what Kurodo said makes more sense," the sly fox Tamamo-no-Mae wagged her fluffy tail, her folding fan covering her lips as she smiled slyly.
A thousand herbs can easily make a dish.
It's unlikely that he'd lose the boss battle like Leios in the Dungeon Delight world did, simply because he was hungry.
"As for restoring HP?" Tamamo-no-Mae suddenly stopped joking and snapped her folding fan shut. "That's possible, but unnecessary. Have you ever seen this cautious hero injured?"
"Injured?" Jeanne Alter suddenly seemed to realize something, her face darkening. "Does the serious injury you sustained not long ago count?"
"..." Upon hearing this, Tamamo-no-Mae was speechless, secretly thinking to herself, "How come I didn't realize that Jeanne Alter was even more despicable than myself?"
The only serious injury I've suffered since the start of the game was when Death accidentally knocked out 100 HP...
If you call that scratch a serious injury, then she really has nothing to say.
In fact, Seiya's ostentatious act of going to buy herbs in front of Ristarte was like rubbing salt into an already bad mood.
"No need to buy those herbs, my magic will do the trick for healing!!"
[Lisda's blunt remarks were like a lit bomb, instantly enraging the herb shop owner, whose expression turned extremely serious.]
"What do you mean by that herb? My herbs are no less powerful than any healing magic."
"Huh??" Upon hearing this, Lisda's face immediately lit up with displeasure, and she retorted like a cat with its fur standing on end: "Of course my magic is stronger."
"Then let's have a contest!" Seeing the two arguing like fighting cocks, the shopkeeper called over a passerby who was injured in both hands and looked distressed.
"Both hands have the same injury, so let's see who can heal faster..."
“Just what I wanted.” Ristarte instantly ignited with a raging fire, radiating an incomparably fierce fighting spirit.
Then, in a flash, his entire demeanor changed; his previously delicate appearance instantly transformed into that of a rugged, masculine man.
She clenched her fists, raised them high, and roared at the passerby's injured right hand: "Burn, my goddess power!!!"
[One minute later...]
"Herbal remedies really work faster! The pain is completely gone!" A passerby stretched his shoulders, feeling refreshed. "As for the area where this lady received treatment, the wound is still a little sore."
"I lost..." Upon hearing this, Ristarte deflated like a punctured balloon, collapsing to her knees in utter defeat. (Read thrilling novels at Feilu Novel Network!)
"Hahaha... no... wait a minute... I'm almost laughing so hard I can't breathe... just how bizarre is this facial expression!"
"666, the timing of this injured bystander's appearance is too subtle, especially his last comment. I'm starting to wonder if he's a plant."
Looking at Ristarte's defeated expression, the people from other worlds shook their heads with pity. The goddess of healing, her healing abilities were actually inferior to those of herbs?
Aside from being manipulated by capital and having her share of the profits taken, no one could figure out why she might lose...
It can't be because the healing goddess is actually bad, right?
Bless the World
"I'm sorry, Aqua!" Kazuma walked up to Aqua with a solemn expression, gently placed his hands on her shoulders, and his eyes revealed utmost sincerity.
"I'm so sorry for always thinking you were a good-for-nothing. You're actually quite useful!"
Honestly, aside from its negative IQ and abysmal luck, this guy's stats are just outrageous.
It's because this girl is always courting death that people forget she's a genuine goddess at heart! When it comes to healing and resurrection, who dares to say she's not top-notch?
"Eh?!"
Aqua was so dizzy from being shaken that she mechanically nodded and said blankly, "Although I don't know what's wrong with you, this goddess is magnanimous and will forgive you!"
"No, you don't understand." Kazuma suddenly let go of her hand, turned his back at a 45-degree angle to look up at the sky, his back revealing a hint of melancholy.
"I've only just realized that some advantages only shine when compared to something far more outrageous."
Compared to the healing goddess on the screen who couldn't even compare to herbs, Aqua actually gave him the illusion that she was actually quite reliable.
Yes, this world has really gone mad!
“I understand—” Aqua’s eyes suddenly lit up like two searchlights: “You must have been moved by the divine radiance of this goddess, so you want to join the Axis Cult, right!”
The next second, as if by magic, he pulled out a stack of curled-edge papers, the classic style of the Axis Cult membership application form, and shoved it in front of Kazuma.
"Come on, sign this. You just want to join the group, don't be so shy, it's Kars!"
"..." Kazuma looked at the application in his hand, then tore it into pieces without expression: "I don't want to at all."
have to--
That fleeting sense of reliability I felt just now was definitely an illusion created by the goddess on the screen; this woman is still that silly goddess who can treat the holy water pool like a bathtub.
When they returned to the palace, the War Emperor had reverted to his original old man form, but he had little memory of what happened after defeating the Four Heavenly Kings.
"Hero, without the Four Heavenly Kings, are you preparing to attack the Demon King's stronghold?"
“Yes.” Seiya’s expression was cold, his attitude as straightforward and decisive as ever: “But I don’t need your help at all.”
[Sei-zai's preemptive refusal was like a blow to the head, plunging the War Emperor into a brief silence. However, he quickly broke into a hearty laugh again.]
"That's true! Even without the help of an old man like me, the world can be saved as long as you are here!"
"I can leave the battle now." The War Emperor murmured to himself, as if reminding himself, before his smile returned. "I'm taking the Goddess to my proud Grand Cathedral."
Just then, a soldier brought news that the remnants of the Demon King's army had launched another attack.
"I'll go. You're the king, you can't act rashly! Just let this goddess see your proud Grand Cathedral." With that, Seiya led Matthew and Elulu away.
[Ristaltie was biting her handkerchief, almost crying. Even herbs are less effective than this. Am I useless?]
