You didn't expect this, did you? I've time-traveled again!

"Yes! Please don't hold back in testing me; my body is very strong!"

Darkness, unusually, did not utter any perverse remarks, but instead seriously accepted this special training.

It's clear that she still harbors resentment about not being able to rescue Huihui in time.

Just then, the lizard runners passed by in front of them.

"Gentlemen, prepare for action!"

Seeing that everyone had rested enough, Suoh Takeru began the expedition.

"Aqua casts a spell to attract the Lizard Runner tribe, and I'll go and kidnap the Lizard Runner tribe's princess."

Sato stood on the tree to cover me at any time, and during this time, Megumin used her explosion magic to wipe out all the other monsters in one go.

Darkness, your mission is to protect Megumin and ensure she successfully unleashes her Explosion Magic!

"Understood!" X4

"Then—let's go!"

With a command, Aqua raised her right hand and unleashed magic, "[Flame of Control]!"

As Aqua's magic ascended into the air, the lizard runners, as if provoked, angrily charged towards where everyone was.

The horde of monsters moved very fast, stirring up quite a bit of sand.

"Proceed according to plan!"

Suoh Takeru gave a brief instruction and then went to meet them, shouting, "Thunder Breathing, First Form: Thunderclap Flash!"

He charged into the horde of monsters, and then, using his brute strength, forcefully snatched the princess who was running at the front.

The speed of 【Thunderbolt Flash】is extremely fast!

Before the lizard runners could react, the princess had already been taken away by Suoh Takeshi.

Upon discovering that their princess had been abducted, they were momentarily stunned before hastily changing direction and following behind Suoh Takeru, hoping to reclaim their princess.

But Suoh Takeru's speed was simply too fast, and the distance between them gradually increased.

They grew further and further apart, until the distance between them was wide enough to accommodate a burst spell...

"Megumin! Quick, use Explosion Magic!"

"Leave it to me!"

Huihui had been waiting for a long time, and impatiently she raised her magic wand and unleashed a burst spell on the tribe of lizard runners.

"Explosion!"

【boom!!!】

A massive explosion erupted among the monsters, instantly obliterating all the monsters within the range of the blasting magic.

[True World Nuclear Peace]

Explosion magic, terrifying indeed!

Suoh Takeshi, who brought the 'princess' back, put a very strong rope around its neck and tied it to a big tree so that Darkness could begin her independent training.

Darkness was very serious, so serious that she gradually became engrossed in it and then enjoyed it.

'His twisted thought process is truly bizarre.'

P.S.: This chapter is written in a bit of a stream-of-consciousness style. I don't know if you gentlemen understand Darkness's training methods.

If it doesn't work, I'll revise it again and try to make it understandable for you gentlemen.

Chapter 046 The Great Cabbage Harvest Operation (Please recommend and add to your favorites)

For the next few days, the team continued to repeat this task.

However, the team's mission targets were not limited to the Lizard Runner; other magical beasts also served as her sparring partners.

Anyway, Darkness is tough and durable, so she won't be easily broken.

Of course, this excludes monsters like toads and goblins.

Because Suoh Takeshi was genuinely afraid that she might take the opportunity to do something like a slime py or a gu slash.

However, this period of time only lasted for a week before it ended.

Although Darkness's special training results have not yet reached the expected level, they are not too far off. She can provide timely assistance in general dangerous situations, which is considered satisfactory.

It's not that I don't want to train for a few more days, it's just that the time-limited mission that Suoh Takeru has been longing for has arrived!

That's right!

【The Cabbage Harvest Season Challenge】

It is coming!

------

"Urgent mission! Urgent mission!"

All adventurers, please assemble at the main gate immediately!

To reiterate, all adventurers, please assemble at the main gate immediately!

The guild's announcement echoed throughout every corner of the starting village. All the adventurers who heard the announcement looked solemn, picked up their weapons and armor, and headed towards the main gate.

"They're coming! Let's go!"

"Faster, faster!"

"Damn it, I didn't hear it was today!"

"What do we do?! What do we do?!"

"Get home quickly! And keep an eye on the children, don't let them sneak out!"

Some timid villagers fled home as if their lives depended on it, locking their doors tightly. The vendors also quickly packed up their stalls and turned to leave.

"Wu, over here, over here!"

They quickly regrouped with their team members and followed the many adventurers to the city gate.

In the distance, large swaths of green appeared to fly towards the town.

The dense clusters are enough to terrify those with trypophobia.

The atmosphere grew increasingly tense.

"W-What happened? What happened?!"

Kazuma Sato was puzzled. "Why does everyone have that expression?"

"Hey Sato-kun, didn't we talk about this a few days ago?"

Suoh Takeshi tapped his head, "Cabbage, cabbage, have you forgotten!"

Suo Takeshi was afraid that Sato Kazuma would miss the harvest season because he didn't know about it, so he had told him a few days ago to be careful not to wander around during these days.

But to my surprise, he still forgot about it.

"Oh!! I remember now!"

Kazuma Sato clenched his right fist and tapped it against his left hand. "The mission that Suoh-senpai mentioned a few days ago, right?"

"It was that mission, but I didn't expect Sato-kun to have forgotten about it."

Suoh Takeshi slammed his fist on the head as punishment, then turned to the team members beside him and instructed, "This cabbage harvest season is very important to us, we must not be careless!"

"Our team needs to coordinate and not get separated. You guys stay close to me and don't wander off."

"Oh!" X4

Afterwards, Suoh Takeshi led a few of them away from the adventurer group and came to the front to wait for battle.

There were so many ripe cabbages that they swarmed in densely, forming a green curtain that covered the entire sky.

"Let's go!"

Suoh Takeshi gave the order, "Darkness!"

"Yes! Leave it to me, I will definitely protect you!"

Darkness raised her giant shield to shield the team members from the powerful impact of the cabbage.

"Sato-kun, I recently created a sword technique that I'm very proud of. Would you like to see it?"

"Oh, please!"

Kazuma Sato raised his right hand and gave a thumbs-up gesture. "Give me a real eye-opener, Suoh-senpai!"

"Please wait and see."

Suoh Takeru gripped his Nichirin Blade and stood beside Darkness, adjusting his breathing.

"Water Breathing - Twelfth Form - Transformation of Timely Rain!"

The next second, a large amount of light blue magic surged out from the Nichirin Blade, engulfing a large patch of cabbage.

The cabbages that were enveloped slowed down instantly, drifting slowly past the crowd, appearing very soft and powerless.

—They have all lost their impact.

"Phew~ How was that sword technique, Sato-kun?"

"Wow! So cool!! Ah!!!"

Kazuma Sato looked at the vast, confined, light blue space in front of him, his eyes filled with envy.

If he has extra skill points, he must learn this sword technique!

Even Aqua, Darkness, and Megumin gaped in disbelief at the powerful swordsmanship that amazed everyone.

"You've already seen this sword technique. Learn it when you have extra skill points."

Suoh Takeshi put the sluggish cabbage into the cage and said to everyone, "Then, I'll leave the recycling to you."
