Kobayashi's Family; Maid of the Dragon Maid World

"24 hours a day? For two weeks straight!!" Xiaolin, who had just returned home from get off work, heard this inhumane statement and was so shocked that her glasses almost fell off.

"A demon! This is definitely a demon!"

Thor tilted his head in confusion: "But Kobayashi, what you're saying isn't wrong, because he is a demon after all..."

"That's not what I meant." Kobayashi silently picked up his glasses from the ground. "Making as many as you want and selling them all, is this the legendary death assembly line?"

As a programmer, Xiaolin is used to working overtime, but he has never seen such overtime before. Working 24 hours a day without rest for two weeks in a row...

Thor thought for a moment and said, "Kirin, Wiz is an undead lich. The death assembly line analogy is quite apt!"

Kobayashi sighed wearily, "That's not what I meant..."

Even cows and horses know to rest when they're tired, but cows and horses still work themselves to the bone! It turns out that what happens after death is even more terrifying... endless overtime awaits you.

Bless the World

"Two...two weeks, I'll die, I'll definitely die!" Wiz's voice trembled as he looked at his own horrific state inside.

Kazuma and the others silently looked at Barnier, who was standing to the side, and began to persuade him: "Mr. Barnier, you should be nicer to Wiz."

Barnier reassured them, "That incompetent shopkeeper is a lich, it'll be alright!"

"The most important thing is to leave her alone, and she will squander all the money she earns."

Upon hearing this, Kazuma and the others looked at Wiz's miserable appearance on the screen and said, "No, no, no, he doesn't look like he's alright at all."

The headless knight, whose ashes have been cold for so long, has come out to entice people again. Has Wiz already stepped into the River of Three Crossings with one foot in the grave?

"I'm the manager!!" Wiz protested, and a heated argument broke out between him and Barnier.

"You'll regret it if you don't do it my way..."

Kazuma looked at the situation and felt a sense of familiarity. Holy crap... there are villagers here! If the door were to slam shut again, it would be just right.

Just then, Banir, who could see through people's hearts, turned to Darkness: "Armored woman, you have signs of destruction!"

As a return gift for the booming business here, Barnier decided to give Darkness a thorough divination: "I have a few questions for you now. Some of them may be difficult to answer, but you must answer them honestly."

Darkness nodded and placed her hand on the crystal ball in front of her.

"So, you're clearly a Knight of the Cross, but why have you been secretly reducing the weight of your armor lately?"

Hearing Barnier's words, Darkness, as if her secret thoughts had been exposed, shuddered: "Because I want to be able to attack the enemy as easily as possible..."

This answer changed Kazuma and Aqua's opinions of Darkness; they hadn't expected her to be considering the team's needs as well.

Barnier said in a deep voice, "We have said we must be honest."

Darkness's eyes widened instantly, cold sweat pouring down her face. She then lowered her head shyly, replying in a barely audible voice, "My... my abs have been getting more and more defined lately, so I wanted to try... making the armor a little lighter."

"Tsk... I thought they reduced the weight so they wanted to enjoy a heavier attack, but I was wrong!"

"Don't even think about it, Darkness. The reason your attacks can't hit anyone has nothing to do with the weight of your armor. The problem lies with you."

The people from other worlds were somewhat annoyed. They had thought that guessing in the direction of the bizarre would be correct, but they never expected that they had guessed wrong!

It's just such an ordinary reason as growing abs, but... what does the armor weight reduction have to do with the sign of destruction?

[Then Barnier asked Darkness why she had changed Megumin's clothes and was comparing them. Even though she said they didn't fit, she tilted her head and smiled at herself in the mirror.]

"Because... cute clothes don't suit me, and I feel embarrassed to buy them! Suddenly, when I saw it, I unconsciously... wanted to pick it up and compare it to myself."

"I'm sorry... For a rough, muscular woman like me, I impulsively grabbed some cute clothes to compare myself to, I'm so sorry..."

Feeling utterly defeated, Darkness buried her face in her hands, concealing her flushed cheeks, and apologized repeatedly in a trembling voice.

Aqua, standing nearby, ran out to comfort Darkness: "I think Darkness looks great in cute dresses too, after all, you can even pull off formal gowns!"

After Aqua finished speaking, Darkness seemed to have been stabbed in the back; her face flushed red to her ears, and she lay motionless on the table.

"No... Aqua, they've already used their Flash, and you're still chasing after them to kill them. If you can't speak properly, then don't speak at all!"

"The most loyal follower of the goddess Eris is confessing to a demon. It's just too bizarre."

Darkness is physically a masochist, but now her mental endurance is almost zero, which is much worse than Kazuma's.

Baka and Test: Summoning World

"Barnier, you installed surveillance cameras?? You can see right through people and even see what's going on in someone's villa?"

Yuuji has wanted to say this for a long time: this Barnier is just too strong. He can see everything except the goddess Aqua!

"What?! It can even achieve the same effect as surveillance!" Upon hearing this, the lecherous man knelt down on the ground in frustration. He desperately wanted this ability.

"A demon, an absolute demon!" Hideyoshi watched the public execution scene unfold before him, and the image of Kazuma being examined by the lie detector flashed through his mind again.

It's exactly the same! Barnier's ability to see through people's hearts is even more powerful than a lie detector! All the dark history is laid bare.

"So, finally! You knew that man was looking at you with lewd eyes, yet you still wore clothes that showed off your body shape..."

Darkness slammed her hand on the table, interrupting Barnier's speech, her face flushed and on the verge of tears: "This...this really has nothing to do with divination!"

"Huh?" Barnier tilted his head in confusion, then said, "When did I say I had to ask questions to get a reading?"

"Fortune telling simply involves placing your hand on the crystal ball; asking questions is just a way to pass the time..."

"I'm going to kill you!!" Darkness cried as she tried to tear off Barnier's mask, wanting nothing more than to kill him on the spot.

After the commotion, Barnier quickly discovered from the crystal ball that Darkness's family and her father were about to suffer misfortune, and there was nothing she could do about it!

"I advise you to abandon everything and run away, along with that cowardly man who thinks that forcibly pushing him down might work, but lacks the courage to cross that line. Let's go far away and start over!"

Kazuma hurriedly explained, "Hey, wait a minute! I feel like every time you speak, the trust my teammates have in me goes into negative territory!"

Darkness, however, was not angry. Instead, she silently stood up, intending to return home after a long absence to see her father, and then walked out of the shop.

"Don't worry, Kazuma, no matter how crazy you are, your teammates' trust in you will never change, because they're already used to it."

"I knew it! What do those nonsensical questions have to do with prophecy? They're just a way to kill time. You're really something."

"Passing the time..." Upon hearing this, the people from other worlds twitched at the corners of their mouths. Why didn't you say so earlier?! Darkness is almost dead, and this is just something you use to pass the time?

Gintama World

"This guy... is undoubtedly a devil." Hijikata Toshiro's hand was trembling as he lit his cigarette, his sadism rivaling that of Sougo.

After asking a bunch of nonsensical questions and revealing a lot of embarrassing past experiences, it turned out that it was just something to pass the time before the divination, something done casually.

No wonder he's a demon who can see through people's hearts; his personality is just too wicked!

Kondo slammed his fist on the table and inexplicably started to go berserk: "No way! Forcibly pushing it down is absolutely not allowed! That's a crime, I absolutely won't allow it."

Sougo, who knew Kondo best, was curious about his reaction: "So, Kondo-san... what's the real reason?"

Kondo said brazenly, "Sougo! Think about it, Kazuma is a hero. Forcibly taking him down would set a bad example for a bunch of RPG players."

"If the problem is serious, the world might be destroyed as a result."

Seeing Kondo's serious expression, Sougo looked enlightened and said, "It's just that he's still single at his age, so he's jealous."

Hijikata Toshiro nodded knowingly: "A very insightful summary, Sougo!"

Chapter 540 Kowloon Hydra, the fleeting moment of Kazuma.

A few days later, Darkness returned from her hometown and pestered Kazuma to let her go hunt monsters. This time, the mission was the Kowloon Hydra, with a bounty of 50 billion!

[Kazuma, who envisions achieving financial freedom in the future, only wants to lie down and relax: "You actually want to hunt this kind of thing? It's not even dawn yet, don't talk nonsense!"]

[After a moment's hesitation, Darkness changed her tune: "Hero who has vanquished numerous Demon Lord subordinates! Kazuma Sato, come on! Now is your time to shine."]

Kazuma scoffed dismissively: "Do you think I'm some kind of fool who'd rush out like an idiot after being called 'hero' a couple of times? I've already made enough money."

"Isn't there any bait that can motivate me more? We've known each other for so long, you should know that, right?"

"Hahaha, a massive PUA failure scene! Who do you think you are in front of? That's the God of Scum, Kazuma! How could such methods possibly work on him?"

Even those watching the video couldn't help but sigh, saying that the rich Kazuma and the poor Kazuma are completely different people, with the only thing in common being their consistent scorn.

OVERLORD World

"Wait, how much is the bounty again? Did I hear that right?" Old Bone hurriedly asked his subordinates, somewhat doubting whether he had misheard.

Albedo bowed slightly upon hearing this, her tone equally surprised: "Lord Ainz, you heard me right!"

Old Bone nodded: "Tsk tsk... If I heard correctly, then they're stupid."

A bounty of 5 billion? That's real heavyweight! You know, a Demon King executive is only worth 300 million. Now a tough guy with a bounty of 5 billion has arrived. He's guaranteed to die, bro!

Xiao Di started daydreaming again: "But then again, given Kazuma and the others' personalities, they should avoid these dangerous missions!"

Let alone the Kowloon Hydra worth 5 billion, they haven't even seen them actively attack the Demon King's subordinates worth 300 million.

Old Bone pondered it carefully and also felt there was something strange about it: "Now that you mention it, it seems to make sense!"

Shalltear also pursed her lips: "I even suspect that they haven't left the village since they came back from the capital."

Kazuma and the others had just received the reward for defeating Sylvia and a large bag of gold coins from Banir. They were not short of money at all, so why would they voluntarily do such dangerous things?

[Having no other choice, Darkness clenched her fists, her face flushed, and said, "I...I understand. As a reward for a successful victory...um, I'll kiss you on the cheek."]

"Rejected!" Faced with Kazuma's cold rejection of Darkness's hard-won resolve, even Darkness herself was stunned.

Kazuma gently lifted Tousuke from his lap: "Who would risk their life for just one person these days?"

[Darkness, her defenses broken, tried to retaliate, but lowered her raised arm and stood before Kazuma: "I said... is it really impossible no matter what?"]
