From RE0, Sato Kazuma decided to cheat on food and drink

Beatrice turned her head to look at the door, and her gaze met that of Kazuma Sato.

"Betty was wondering why the whole mansion was so noisy today. Turns out, some idiot came by!"

Beatrice frowned and looked at Kazuma Sato. She didn't know why he had come to see her; she could hear him calling her name even through the door.

"What do you want with Betty—"

Before Beatrice could finish speaking, Kazuma Sato closed the door.

? ? ? ? ?

For the first time, a bewildered expression appeared on Beatrice's face.

what's the situation?

Wasn't this person just shouting that he was coming to find me?

Why did you just walk away as soon as you saw me?

Just as Beatrice was looking confused, the door opened again, and Kazuma Sato poked half his head in:

"Um, just to be on the safe side, I should ask, are you Betty?"

"Nonsense! If Betty isn't Betty, then who is she?"

"Oh, sorry to bother you."

Before Beatrice could finish speaking, Kazuma Sato closed the door again.

! ! ! ? ? ?

Beatrice gritted her teeth, her small hands clenched into fists.

Outside the door, Kazuma Sato sat on the ground, looking utterly dejected.

"Why...why..."

Kazuma Sato let out a long, somewhat helpless sigh.

"Why is it a young girl?"

Kazuma Sato only knew that Beatrice was supposed to be a beautiful fairy girl, but he never expected that she would look so small.

Does she look ten years old?

If others found out that he had feelings for a young girl, he would definitely be considered a pervert.

Although he has been labeled a pervert by many, there are different levels of perversion.

Moreover, and most importantly, if Aqua were to see this, she would definitely be ridiculed as a lolicon!

Absolutely unacceptable!

Kazuma Sato would rather be beaten up by Elsa than be mocked by Aqua!

Get out of here right now!

Just as Kazuma Sato got up to leave, the door behind him suddenly opened, and Beatrice stood there with her arms crossed, looking at Kazuma Sato with a displeased expression:

"Who the hell are you? Just looking at you annoys Betty!"

"My name is Kazuma Sato, nice to meet you!"

Sato Kazuma, looking somewhat embarrassed, still greeted them.

"Why did you come to Betty in the first place! If you don't tell me, Betty will definitely not let you off easily!"

"I....."

Kazuma Sato hesitated for a moment, but then remembered what Puck had said: the Great Spirit was extremely powerful, and if he angered it, he might end up as nothing but bones.

Although Aqua has the ability to revive, can she still do it if there is no corpse left?

After thinking for a second, Kazuma Sato got straight to the point and stated his thoughts:

"I originally came here to invite you to join our side."

"what?"

Beatrice felt completely bewildered upon hearing Kazuma Sato's words.

Invite yourself to join?

What do you mean?

Does this mean I should leave the forbidden library?

In that instant, Beatrice's gaze became somewhat complicated, as if some emotion that only she herself knew was brewing within her.

But just a second later, Beatrice reverted to her previous cold and arrogant expression:

"Then what did you mean by suddenly leaving just now?"

"Because you are a young girl. If I force a young girl to team up with me, I will be looked down upon by others and even be regarded as a 'lolicon' pervert."

As Sato Kazuma spoke, he waved his hand, giving a look of disdain.

"If I get labeled a lolicon, my reputation will be ruined~"

He didn't notice that Beatrice's face next to him had been clouded over.

"Unforgivable, unforgivable, unforgivable! How dare a mere brat speak to Betty like that! Betty will never let you off easily!"

Beatrice's voice trembled slightly.

Damn it, so damn damn!

What's more infuriating than being invited out of nowhere is being rejected for no reason!

"Hey, hey, hey, you're the one who told me to say that!"

It was only at this moment that Sato Kazuma sensed the terrifying aura emanating from Beatrice, and his heart suddenly raced.

Did I say something remarkable?

Oh no, oh no, oh no! Betty is a great elf!

The cuter a character is, the more terrifying their strength usually is!

An ominous premonition instantly rose in Kazuma Sato's heart.

I think I'm doomed!

I feel like I can't breathe...

"Betty's going to teach you a lesson!"

Beatrice stepped forward and pulled her hand away from Kazuma Sato.

The next instant, Kazuma Sato fainted and lost consciousness.

. . . . . .

I don’t know how long it took.

Kazuma Sato slowly opened his eyes, and what came into view was a white ceiling and a magnificent chandelier.

He could feel a comfortable softness, and then he realized that he was lying on an extremely luxurious bed.

"Wake up, Kazuma! When are you going to stop sleeping? Dinner's about to start!"

Aqua grabbed Sato Kazuma's cheek and shook it, saying...

"Are you alright, Lord Kazuma?"

Beside Aqua, Emilia looked at Kazuma Sato with some nervousness.

"I hope everything's alright. What happened?"

Somewhat bewildered, Kazuma Sato turned to look in the other direction, where Roswaal was talking to Beatrice:

"Betty, what have you done?"

"That idiot is so infuriating! Betty originally wanted to extract some mana from him to teach him a lesson!"

"So I was knocked unconscious by the great elf?"

Kazuma Sato breathed a sigh of relief; at least he had saved his life.

At that moment, Beatrice continued, with an incredulous look on her face:

"But Betty hadn't even touched him before he fainted from fright!"

Chapter Thirty-Seven: From now on, you'll never be able to flush the toilet.

"Frightened into fainting again? Hahahaha!"

Upon hearing Beatrice's words, Aqua covered her mouth and began to laugh wildly at Kazuma Sato.

"again?"

A hint of doubt flashed in Emilia's eyes.

"Shut up, you useless goddess!"

Kazuma Sato immediately covered himself with the pillow, pretending he hadn't heard anything.

"Betty, no matter what, Lord Kazuma is our guest. We can't do this."

Roswaal smiled and spoke slowly to Beatrice.

"Hmph, this isn't Betty's fault at all!"

Beatrice pouted, closed her eyes, and turned her head to the side, but still kept stealing glances at Kazuma Sato.

Kazuma Sato peeked out from under the pillow like an eel, and upon seeing Beatrice, deliberately rolled around on the bed and shouted loudly, trying to evoke her guilt.

"Ouch, that hurts! I must have fallen and hurt myself!"

"What on earth happened?! Seriously!"

Beatrice walked impatiently to Kazuma Sato, wanting to check if he was injured.

Although it wasn't her fault, Beatrice still felt a little guilty.

"Ignore him, he's just faking pain!"

"That's what Aqua said from the side."

"Hey, hey, hey, Aqua, I'm really in a bit of pain!"

"I was so scared that I fainted and fell to the ground, I have no one to blame but myself!"

As Aqua spoke, she brought her face close to Kazuma Sato's, a meaningful smile on her face, and whispered,

"But let me tell you, this is what Betty, whom you've been so obsessed with, actually looks like—you're not a lolicon~"

"Aaaaaah, absolutely not, absolutely not, absolutely not! How could I possibly be interested in lolis?! You can tell I could never be a lolicon just by looking at how I'm not interested in Felt's shapeless figure!"

Kazuma Sato said loudly and with unwavering determination.

After he finished speaking, he noticed that Natsuki Subaru's gaze was fixed on him.

It was a tragic gaze fixed on the dead.

So... it seems Kazuma Sato didn't see Felt.

“If Ferute were standing right behind me right now, you would nod.”

"Um....."

Seeing Natsuki Subaru's head slowly move up and down, Kazuma Sato smiled.

That was an expression of facing death without fear.

"The breeze, the sunshine, how wonderful!"

"You dare say that to me! I just haven't grown up yet!"

Ferut's face was full of anger. She raised her leg high, almost perpendicular to the ground, and then slammed it down.

The destination of the journey was Kazuma Sato's face.

Kazuma Sato, who was originally uninjured, is now seriously injured.
