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

"#...￥# (Besides you, who else can I talk to?)"

"Um... I don't really understand your language."

The boy scratched the back of his head with one hand, a somewhat embarrassed expression on his face.

When Sato Kazuma heard what the other person said, he was stunned for a moment.

What do you mean by 'your race'?

What do you mean by 'not understanding your language'?

Does this guy think I'm a demi-human?

Kazuma Sato looked at Aqua beside him with a bewildered expression, while the latter nodded solemnly.

“That’s right, Kazuma, you’re not quite what people typically think of as a human being right now.”

The boy had been staring at Kazuma Sato, and suddenly a look of utter surprise appeared on his face. He noticed that Kazuma Sato was wearing a tracksuit that did not belong to this world.

"Wait? You, you, could it be that you're also a transmigrator! My name is Natsuki Subaru, nice to meet you!"

The boy, who called himself Natsuki Subaru, immediately smiled and introduced himself.

In another world, there is nothing more exciting than meeting a fellow countryman.

"Huh? You're a time traveler too?"

Aqua then realized why Kazuma Sato was so agitated, and quickly asked him why.

"Which goddess sent you here? Was it Eris?"

"Goddess? Eris? What's that?"

Subaru Natsuki stared blankly at Aqua and Kazuma Sato.

"Then, how did you come into this world?"

"I just came out of the convenience store and then suddenly found myself here."

"Didn't you see any goddess?"

"No, no."

"Then how did you die? Does that mean you didn't die and just transmigrated to this world?"

Chapter Six: Um, I believe you're a goddess, um, I believe you.

The moment he heard the word "death," Subaru Natsuki's lips twitched slightly.

Not long ago, he did indeed experience death.

In order to help a girl named Satella find her lost items, he and she found the thief's hideout.

However, upon entering the stronghold, Natsuki Subaru only saw an extremely bloody scene, and he himself was subsequently killed by unidentified individuals.

After regaining consciousness, Natsuki Subaru realized that he had returned to the very beginning.

He himself didn't understand what was going on.

That feeling of death lingered in Subaru Natsuki's heart.

However, this happened after he was transported to this world; Natsuki Subaru was indeed transported to this world suddenly without any warning.

"Do you know how this guy named Kazuma died? He saw a small tractor and was so scared he died—"

Before Aqua could finish speaking, Kazuma Sato had already grabbed her by the neck and started shaking her violently.

"Aaaaaah, I'm sorry, I won't say it anymore! Aaaaaah!"

Natsuki Subaru stared blankly at the two people in front of him, and only after they gradually quieted down did he ask:

"May I ask who you two are?"

"#￥%# (My name is Kazuma Sato, just call me Kazuma, nice to meet you)"

"what?"

"He said his name is Kazuma Sato, you can just call him Kazuma. As for me, I am Aqua, the all-knowing and all-powerful goddess of water!"

As she introduced herself, Aqua puffed out her chest with unwavering confidence, awaiting the look of utter awe from Subaru Natsuki.

"Um....."

Natsuki Subaru simply pursed his lips and nodded even more awkwardly.

He hadn't expected Aqua to be able to understand what the person next to her was saying, and he certainly hadn't expected her to call herself a goddess.

The moment Natsuki Subaru met them, he sensed that the two people in front of him weren't very bright, completely different from the high-class goddesses he had encountered in games and anime.

These two seem to be even more immature than I am.

"Hey, hey, hey, don't look so disbelieving! I really am a goddess! Please believe me!"

Aqua almost rushed up to Subaru Natsuki and grabbed him by the collar.

"I... I didn't disbelieve you, but since you're a goddess, you must have some special abilities, right?"

"I, I, I... There are no followers of mine in this world, and it seems my power has diminished considerably..."

"Um....."

Aqua's answer almost convinced Subaru Natsuki that she was just making excuses.

"Don't look at me like that, I really am a goddess! Wait, wait, I just remembered! You wait for me!"

As Aqua spoke, she placed her hand on Kazuma Sato's head.

"Look closely, this is my Light Illumination Technique!"

As Aqua activated her skill, Kazuma Sato's head burst forth with dazzling light, and the beams of light kept changing shape.

Kazuma Sato, already looking somewhat ferocious from his injuries, had his head made even more terrifying by Aqua's abilities.

“￥……￥……＃@”

Kazuma Sato immediately pounced on Aqua, urging her to fight to the death. What he had just shouted was definitely not a kind word.

Subaru Natsuki, standing next to him, was completely speechless.

The scene before him seemed too shocking to him, even beyond what a normally developing human brain could imagine.

However, this also made Subaru Natsuki realize that Aqua seemed to really have some kind of special power.

"You...you can use magic too?"

"Of course! I am a goddess! Once I gather a new group of followers, I can regain my former power! I am Aqua, the goddess of water!"

Aqua proudly raised her chin.

Kazuma Sato was utterly speechless at this useless goddess.

However, when he looked at Subaru Natsuki, it seemed that there was indeed some wavering in the other's eyes. At least in Subaru Natsuki's eyes, Aqua had gone from being an 'idiot' to a 'somewhat special idiot'.

This gave Kazuma Sato an idea.

Perhaps it is possible to recruit some followers for Aqua in this world.

Although Aqua's power as a goddess has been greatly weakened, the skills she learned from those adventurer cards are unaffected.

They should be able to use this to repackage Aqua as a goddess and attract others to become believers.

"Kazuma, your face... is it injured? How did you get it?"

"He just got a beating from three thugs!"

"Three thugs? Could it be the Jane Hanton trio?"

"Who is that?"

Subaru Natsuki gave a brief description of the three thugs he encountered, and they were the same group that Aqua and the other person had met.

Previously, Subaru Natsuki had also been robbed by those three thugs, but he was rescued thanks to a girl named Satella.

He still remembered the three thugs saying that they had previously encountered two penniless guys who weren't very bright.

Could it be that it's just the two people in front of you?

The three then chatted for a while, sharing their general situations, with Aqua acting as the translator.

However, Subaru Natsuki did not reveal the time reversal that occurred after his death, as he was still unsure of what had actually happened.

"...Well, right now I need to find someone named Felt to help others find their lost items."

“Felt? I’ve never heard of that name before. We haven’t been in this world for very long.”

Aqua shook her head.

"Although I don't know how you traveled to this world, you must have just arrived, right? Are you looking for something for someone?"

"A beautiful girl! She helped me a lot before! She said her name was Satella—"

"Satella!?"

Upon hearing the name, both Kazuma Sato and Aqua were startled.

Isn't that the name of the Witch of Envy they were planning to kill?!

She must be the demon king of this world. Defeating her might allow us to return to the real world!

"Let's go kill her right now!"

Before Aqua could finish speaking, Kazuma Sato grabbed her and interrupted her.

With severely insufficient intelligence, Kazuma Sato is unwilling to take any rash action.

Besides, who places the final boss right at the entrance of the starting village?

Moreover, according to the intelligence they had previously obtained, the Witch of Jealousy should be in a sealed state, and it was absolutely impossible for her to appear in the capital.

Even if she really is the Witch of Jealousy, with their current strength, they would be giving her away for nothing.

Chapter Seven: What's the Sense to Put the Boss in the Starting Area?

After a brief exchange, Subaru Natsuki decided to head to Felt's base to help Satella retrieve her lost item, which seemed to be of great importance.

In the previous loop, after almost a whole day of investigation, Subaru Natsuki learned the thief's name—Felt—and her hideout for the stolen goods.

"%……# (Perfect, let's go together!)"

Kazuma Sato patted Subaru Natsuki on the shoulder and said...

Let's act together!

Aqua understood perfectly and said to Subaru Natsuki, while a meaningful smile appeared on her face.

"Really! That's great!"

Natsuki Subaru nodded vigorously, a smile appearing on his face.

It would be best if someone could accompany me, especially another transmigrator like myself.

"I know the location, follow me!"

Subaru Natsuki then walked ahead, with Kazuma Sato and Aqua following behind him.

"Hey Kazuma, why didn't you let me speak just now?"

"The Satella that Subaru mentioned is definitely not our target."

Kazuma Sato's injuries have healed somewhat, and at least his words can be barely heard.

"Why?"

Aqua's eyes were filled with confusion.

"You're saying that in a game, there's no such thing as putting the final boss in the starting village? Besides, didn't we already investigate? That Witch of Envy is sealed away! She's not here at all! The Satella that Subaru is talking about is definitely not the same person we're thinking of!"

Kazuma Sato said that, for some reason, the image of Aqua suddenly attacking an ordinary person and then being beaten up in return had already appeared in his mind.

Moreover, their current fighting ability can only be described as outrageous; they would be beaten up by three thugs on the street.

Even if the final boss were to appear before them now, they would probably be instantly killed.

So, could Subaru Natsuki, who is also a transmigrator, possess some amazing skills?
