I can copy the beautiful girl

——When you are not speaking.

“Aa ...

Aqua cried and threw herself on me, grabbed my collar and tried to strangle me.

"What the hell have you done?! Why would a noble goddess like me accompany you to this rural place?! What should I do if I can't go back?! What should I do?! What should I do from now on?!!"

I looked at Aqua with a sigh, and as expected, I didn't have any sexual interest in copying her at all.

You're the only 2D beautiful girl who can't even arouse my sexual interest, even though your appearance perfectly matches my XP! Aqua!!

"Anyway, it's already happened and can't be changed, so stop crying and let's go to the Adventurer's Guild first."

"Eh? He seems so, so reliable. He's just a video game geek, so why does he seem so reliable?"

"Don't you know? In stories about traveling to another world, the most reliable people are always the otakus."

"Is that so? Well, now that you put it that way it does seem to be true! There's some truth to what you said, doesn't it? — But you've adapted so quickly."

"Because this isn't my first time traveling to another world, I'm already quite experienced."

"Huh? Not the first time? What do you mean? Have you been reincarnated in other worlds before?"

"more or less."

"I never realized you had such a rich past."

While chatting, I took Aqua along and asked for directions to the Adventurer's Guild in the novice town of Axel.

Konosuba: God's Blessing on This Wonderful World!

——This is the official name of this world, or rather, this work.

The protagonist's name, which is also my name in this world, is Sato Kazuma.

To put it simply, the story is that after his death, Sato Kazuma was received by Aqua, the goddess who governs Japan. Aqua then asked him whether he wanted to erase his memories and reincarnate as a baby again, or go to heaven and live as an old grandfather who can do nothing and can only chat with people, or to reincarnate with his original body and memories to a different world harmed by the Demon King to become a hero candidate, and live a new life with the goal of defeating the Demon King.

As a hikikomori, Sato Kazuma naturally chose the third option, and thus his adventure in another world began.

——It sounds like a very royal story.

But in fact, the original novel is a comedy, and the adapted animation is also a comedy, the kind of comedy that can make people laugh to the point of cramps.

Although I definitely can't do such funny things myself, the joy that Suqing brought me is still remembered to this day, so I have a very high favorable impression of this world.

Of course, I have to reiterate that I definitely can't be funny because that's not my style, so I just walked into the Adventurer's Guild with Aqua with a calm expression.

"Ah, welcome. If you need a job introduction, please go to the counter inside. If you're looking for a meal, please take a seat!"

A waitress with short red hair came forward to greet us warmly.

The guilds in this world are obviously different from those in the Earth World. They are very otherworldly and also run bar and restaurant businesses.

Groups of people in armor gathered everywhere, and their attention was focused on Aqua and me.

One reason is that, as mentioned before, Aqua is really a goddess when she is not speaking, so her beauty is very eye-catching.

"Hey, hey, they're looking at me a little too much, aren't they? It must be because of that. I'm radiating a divine aura, so they've realized I'm a goddess."

"Do you think you are the god of the earth? Do you have divine power? Return the glory of God..."

I'm so exhausted from complaining, so can't you just shut up and be a quiet goddess?

Although the gods in the world of Dicuo are also very weird, you have to admit that those inexplicable gods, no matter how weird they are, are all full of divinity. However, Aqua...

"Kamui? What is that? Which world is Dicuo? Why haven't I heard of it? Uh, forget it. There are thousands of other worlds. It's normal not to know."

Anyway, let’s ignore this blue idiot for now. Another reason why those adventurers’ eyes were focused on us was naturally because of me.

I'm not bragging, I've always known that I'm very good-looking, and after seeing the proof given by Keqing, I realized that my looks might even be comparable to a goddess of beauty like Freya. So it's normal for me to attract some attention at this moment, right?

"So it's not wrong. The reason they looked at me was purely because I'm so handsome."

"Huh? What did you say? No way! It's because of me! My beauty is what really attracts everyone's attention!"

"Heh, your face is already funny enough, could you please stop making these ridiculous remarks? It's very obvious that they are absolutely mesmerized by my stunning beauty."

"You narcissist! Do you think you're more attractive than a goddess like me?"

"Your existence completely degrades the word 'goddess'. Can you please apologize to all the goddesses in the world?"

"What do you mean? Are you scolding me? Are you saying I'm unworthy of being a goddess?! Is that what you mean?!"

I was immediately shocked: "Unbelievable, you can actually understand the meaning of my words?!"

"You actually admitted it!!!"

Aqua rushed forward, her face full of gritted teeth.

I grabbed her face with one hand, picked her up and lifted her up, perfectly integrating into Suqing's mental state, and then walked towards the counter.

"Hello, young lady, we want to become adventurers."

"Alright. To register as an adventurer, you'll need to pay a fee of one thousand Alice. For two people, that's two thousand."

"Give."

I took out two thousand and handed it to the beautiful, plump, wavy-haired receptionist in front of me.

"Eh? How do you have money? Didn't you just come into this world like me? This is too weird, right? Did you steal from someone before? This is not okay! As a candidate hero, you shouldn't do such a disrespectful thing!"

Aqua broke free from my hand, saw the money I took out, and lectured me in a very clear and logical manner.

I looked at her expressionlessly. Forget it. I felt like I would lose if I complained.

In short, the reason why I am rich is very simple, that is because I copied the counter lady in front of me.

The lady at the counter naturally had money on her, so I just had to take the money from her clone.

For me, making money is that simple.

At this moment, the counter lady handed a card to Aqua and me respectively.

It was about the size of a driver's license and looked like an ID card or something.

"Look here, isn't there an item called level?"

"As you two know, everything in this world has a soul within it."

"Regardless of the existence, if you eat or kill a living being, that is, if you terminate some of its life activities, you can absorb a portion of that being's soul's memories—what is commonly known as 'experience points'."

"These experience points are generally not visible to the naked eye. However..."

The lady at the counter pointed to a part of the card and said:

"As long as you hold this card, the experience points gained by the adventurer will be displayed on it. At the same time, the corresponding level will also be displayed."

"This is the standard for adventurers' strength. The number of targets conquered will also be recorded here."

"As experience points accumulate, all kinds of creatures will suddenly grow rapidly one day - this is what is called crossing the wall of leveling up."

"In short, as long as you level up, you can get various benefits, such as points for learning new skills, etc., so please be sure to work hard to level up."

This is the power system of this world.

Simply put, this card is a display, or in other words, it is like the operating interface of the game character.

It is not the cards that give life power, but the cards that reveal the power that life has.

The rule of this world is that as long as a creature can kill other creatures, it can gain corresponding experience points and thereby improve its own strength.

The adventurer card can display this improvement in an informational way.

Through the displayed information, a person can know his or her various values, and can also use it to choose his or her career and the skills he or she wants to learn.

In short, based on the rules of the world, this world is like a game world.

There are levels, professions, and skills, and the adventurer card is equivalent to the operating interface of the game character "yourself". That's roughly how you can understand it.

"What? What—!?" At this moment, the receptionist looked at Aqua's adventurer card with a stunned expression and exclaimed, "What's with these stats? Aside from intelligence being below average and luck being at the lowest level, all the other parameters are significantly above average! Especially the magic power, which is ridiculously high. Who the hell are you...?"

At this moment, the members of the guild who had been paying attention to us were also in an uproar, and I looked at Aqua with an expressionless face again.

After all, she's a goddess, so it's only natural that she's this level. ——But what's the point?

Although I like the work "KonoSuba: God's Blessing on This Wonderful World!" and I can also say that I like the character of Aqua very much, but I don't have any expectations for Aqua herself - any expectations I have for her are equivalent to saying that I am a complete idiot.

This is the only thing I am very clear about.

But Aqua was clearly unaware of my assessment of her. She immediately flashed a smug expression upon hearing what the receptionist said: "Huh? What's going on? Does this mean I'm awesome? Well, at my level, it's normal for me to be that awesome."

"This, this isn't just amazing! You can't choose the magician class, which requires high intelligence, but you can choose all the other classes! The paladin, 'Crusader,' boasts the strongest defense; the swordsman, 'Swordmaster,' boasts the strongest attack; the priest's superior class, 'High Priest,' and so on and so forth... You can choose most of the superior classes right from the start!"

Aqua was troubled by the counter girl’s words before saying, “Well, it’s a shame there’s no ‘Goddess’ class… but for me, I think I should be a high priestess.”

“High Priest, huh? High Priests can cast a variety of healing and support spells, and even charge into battle without issue. It’s a powerful, versatile class! Then, I’ll register as High Priest… Okay. Welcome to the Adventurer’s Guild, Aqua-sama. Everyone in the guild is looking forward to seeing you in action!”

"Hahaha, you'll definitely see how powerful I am!"

I couldn't stand Aqua's smug expression any longer, so I knocked on the counter. "So, what careers can I choose?"

"Oh, sorry, sir."

The lady at the counter immediately looked down at my adventurer card.

I looked down at my adventurer card again.

I looked down at my adventurer card again.

She looked up at me, then looked down at my adventurer card.

"Peng! Peng!"

I knocked on the counter again, my expression impassive.

"So, what are my options for career?"

Shocked? Shocked? Haha, I knew I was different from Satou Kazuma in the original story. I'm stronger than Aqua. I'm sure I can handle all the jobs.

The lady at the counter was indeed stunned. After confirming again and again that she was not dazzled, she looked up at me again with a dull expression, and then took a deep breath.

"The devil is coming!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

The deafening shout echoed throughout Axel.

Volume 2: Chapter : Contaminated by Ghosts

Faced with the counter lady's eardrum-shattering shout, I couldn't help but plug my ear holes with two fingers, my face numb.

"What the hell? Are you the Demon King?"

The first person to react to the counter lady's words was Aqua.

While the others were still bewildered, Aqua looked at me in shock, jumping back defensively. "I see. No wonder you dragged me into the fire. This is truly something only a demon king could do!"

I looked at her like she was an idiot. "I don't care if I'm considered a demon king, or what kind of demon king I am, but don't you know whether I am a demon king or not?"

"...Ah! That's right! You're mistaken, right? He can't possibly belong to the Demon King. He's the Hero Candidate who came to defeat the Demon King! I sent him here... Even though I didn't send him here, I know he can't belong to the Demon King."

Despite Aqua's words, the receptionist still looked at me with a fearful expression, her finger trembling as she pointed at the card. "But, but it clearly shows that one of his options is the Demon King. Look, it's right here! And his stats are incredibly high. He's definitely the legendary Demon King!"

After hearing what the counter lady said, I finally understood and said expressionlessly, "So the only career I can choose is Demon King?"

"That's not the case! Archmage, Archpriest, Crusader... there are so many professions you can choose from, eh? Why is there a Hero? What kind of profession is that? Is there such a profession?"

"To put it simply, the profession I can choose is the Demon King, but that doesn't mean I'm a Demon King, right? Can't I still become a Hero?"

"Okay, that seems to be the case... but I've never heard of anyone being able to directly choose Demon Lord as their class, right?"

"Have you ever heard of someone who can directly choose a hero's profession?"

“No, no…”

"This is what is called a single thought can make you a Buddha or a single thought can make you a devil."

I put on a serious expression and said seriously:

"Strong men like me are heroes if they turn to good, and demons if they turn to evil. For example, the demon who is currently harming the world is the descendant of a former hero... Do you understand what this means?"

"W-what's that concept? Eh? Is the current Demon King a descendant of a hero? Why have I never heard of that?"

"The idea is, if you don't use those big breasts of yours to please me, then I might choose to change my job and become a demon king. If that happens, the world will be faced with two demon kings, and it will all be your fault."

The lady at the counter turned pale: "How...how could this happen...?"

"But if you can satisfy me with your breasts, I will become a hero and defeat the Demon King. You will receive a share of the credit, and no one in the world will be able to erase your contribution."
