Zongman: A Dimensional Journey Starting from Fulilian

"so smart?"

"Why else do you think I let her join our team? Because she's pretty?"

"That's not the case, is it?"

“Go~” Shi Chen tapped Hui Hui’s forehead again.

“It hurts~” Huihui pouted in grievance.

"Can I help you blow it when I get back?"

"I'm a child!"

"In my eyes, they are just...Okay, no more words. I'll go help them both."

After Shichen finished speaking, he flashed to Darkness' side.

"Wow!"

Darkness was startled: "Shichen, why are you here?"

"Meihui is preparing magic. I'll take you back later."

“Really? Actually, that’s not necessary. I should be able to withstand Megumin’s magic.”

"...That's explosion magic."

"B-Explosion magic? Wouldn't that be even better?"

"...You are really hopeless."

“Hmm! I didn’t expect that I wanted to experience such a great attack just after joining. I made the right choice! Huhu-huhu-” Darkness breathed heavily with excitement.

"You chose the right one, but no team wants you, right?"

"H-how do you know?"

"Heh, would a normal team want you in this state?"

"Hehehe~"

"Anyway, I can't let you get blasted together. You are my team member now, you have to listen to me."

“Why is this happening…” Darkness showed a disappointed expression.

"Don't worry, I'll satisfy you when the time comes."

"really?"

"That depends on your performance."

"I understand! I will be obedient. You can do whatever you want to me, whether it's stealing my panties or my bra, or whipping me."

"Shut up!"

"Well!"

"Megumin's magic is ready, give me your hand."

“Oh, oh.” At this time, Darkness suddenly and innocently extended her hand slowly.

Shi Chen grabbed it and took her away directly. Then, a sudden explosion of fire broke out in the place where the two left!

boom--!

A deafening explosion sounded, and the surrounding giant frogs were instantly swallowed up by the blast.

In this case, there is no hope for frog meat and I will lose a lot of money.

"Watch this! Watch this!"

Far away from the explosion site, Sato Kazuma was still fighting with a giant frog.

Shi Chen ignored him and looked at the charred area with everyone else where a big hole had appeared.

“Is this explosion magic? It’s so powerful!” Darkness exclaimed.

Shichen nodded: "At this rate, Axel will be surrounded by a giant pit sooner or later."

Chapter 138 Lalatina

After Sato Kazuma dealt with the giant frog, Tokichi carried Huihui on his back and went back with everyone else, taking the only remaining frog corpse.

A giant frog cannot serve as an umbrella for six people, so Shichen directly used space teleportation to bring everyone back to the guild.

Most of the tasks today were handled by Huihui. Luna checked her adventurer card and collected the giant frog's body. Shichen received his reward, declined Luna's invitation to have lunch together later, and left with everyone.

After leaving the guild for a while, Shichen discovered that Darkness was still following them.

"Darkness, where are you going?"

“With you guys.” Darkness replied as a matter of course.

"Together? Aren't you going home? We're just going back to the hotel."

"It doesn't matter. We are already a team, so of course I should stay in the hotel with you guys."

“Isn’t this a waste of money?”

"I have a lot of money, I can even give it to you, Shichen."

"why?"

“I’ll give you all the money, and then I’ll have no choice but to follow your arrangements. If you force me to do anything, I won’t be able to refuse... Well~ I’m looking forward to it!” Darkness suddenly had a fit and began to twist her whole body.

“…”Everyone looked at her speechlessly.

"I originally thought that Darkness's family had some unspeakable secrets, and that they just wanted to be bullied by Brother Shi..." Sato Kazuma said with a twitching mouth.

"Don't worry, there's nothing wrong with my family. I just think I should be with the rest of the team."

“No...it’s okay if you don’t come with us. We can just meet up the next day.” Huihui hugged Shichen’s neck tightly and refused with disgust.

"Why is this so... But if something happens, I won't know about it, right?"

"We'll go back and let you know."

“You don’t even know where my home is.”

"Why don't you just tell us?"

“It’s a bit inconvenient…” Darkness suddenly hesitated.

“Ah? Miss Darkness, is there really something going on at home?” Youyou asked with concern.

“Just call me Darkness…that’s about right, so I hope to be with you guys, is that okay?” Darkness pleaded pitifully to Shichen.

"I don't care. The money is yours anyway. You can spend it however you want."

"Thank you very much! I will let you do whatever you want, Shichen!"

"......Or you should go back." Shi Chen said unhappily.

"Hey - how can you regret it!"

"Then don't keep saying things that could lead to misunderstandings, especially in front of outsiders."

Huihui and the others already knew Darkness' true appearance, so he wasn't afraid of her talking nonsense in front of them, but it would be inappropriate to do so in front of the residents of this town without knowing her.

He has recently been dubbed a lolita complex, but he cannot be dubbed a sadist as well.

“I, I will try my best. If I can’t, you can punish me as you like. You can do anything to me... um!” Darkness replied with a rosy face.

"..."

Back at the hotel, Darkness checked in and chose a room next to Aqua's. Then they went back to their rooms to rest.

Huihui and the others did not curiously ask about Darkness's family situation, perhaps because they were afraid of hurting him.

They are all kind people.

It’s a pity that Darkness’s family situation didn’t have any negative issues as they thought. She just didn’t want to be treated as a noble daughter.

After all, her family is aristocratic.

There are basically no nobles among adventurers, and the class gap is very obvious in this world.

Shichen put Huihui back on her bed and left without lingering.

When he returned to the room, as expected, Aqua was already lying on his bed, sleeping with his quilt in her arms.

"It's not even noon yet, and you want to go to bed?" Shi Chen couldn't help but ask.

"But I really want to sleep." Aqua opened her eyes and looked at him innocently.

"So you're not going to have lunch later?"

"Why don't you just wake me up when the time comes? I can still sleep for more than an hour now."

"...Forget it, just go to sleep."

"Okay! Wait...are you going to spank me later?"

"It depends on the situation. If you can't wake him up, just beat him."

"This is going to hurt." Aqua pouted.

"What can we do? You know that the insiders have to wake up, right?"

"Hmm...then can you please remember to hit me gently later?"

"What if I hit him too lightly and fail to wake him up? Won't you be hit a few more times?" Shi Chen asked back with a smile.

“That seems to be the case…”

"Unless you skip lunch and sleep until you wake up naturally."

"That won't work! You have to eat lunch!"

"Then you'll just have to bear the pain. You can heal yourself anyway."

"OK then."

"Well, go to sleep."

"Okay... Shichen, can you let me hold you for a while?"
