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

Page 57

The intersection was now packed with people. Sato Kazuma and the others could only stand on the outer edge of the crowd and couldn't see what was happening ahead. They could only hear cheers and shouts from the crowd in front of them.

"I'm a little curious, what kind of performance is it?"

Kazuma Sato's curiosity was piqued, but since he wasn't very tall, he couldn't see what was happening in front of him, so he turned to look at Beatrice:

"Betty, can I step on you to see?"

"What nonsense are you talking about?"

Beatrice frowned as she looked at Kazuma Sato, then glanced at the crowd and sighed.

"Honestly, Betty has absolutely no way to deal with you. Betty should use magic to send you up there to see."

"No, no, no, no, that's not necessary!"

Kazuma Sato immediately rejected Beatrice's suggestion.

Beatrice didn't use magic; she used her own life.

"It's just simple magic, it doesn't require much mana."

"do not want!"

Kazuma Sato shook his head without hesitation.

"Damn it, what's that in front of me?!"

Aqua said, but no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't squeeze in.

"Aqua, carry me on your back."

"what?"

"If we do nothing, then no one will be able to see what kind of performance is going on!"

Kazuma Sato spoke to Aqua with utmost seriousness, placing his hands on her shoulders.

"It might become a regret for the rest of our lives."

"A human life is insignificant to me; it's just a fleeting moment!"

"But think about it, this might be your only chance to see this performance today! If you don't see it, even if you return to the realm of gods, you might spend ten thousand years in regret!"

"What you said seems to make a lot of sense!"

Aqua nodded vigorously, but then seemed to realize something.

"Wait, why am I looking at you with my back to you?"

"Otherwise, none of us will be able to see it. It's better to let me see it. I can then tell you what I see, which is the same as you seeing it, right?"

"No, no, no, that's not what I'm asking. I'm asking why I have to carry you! I'm a goddess! Shouldn't you be carrying me?!"

"Have you forgotten? I'm a piece of trash whose attributes are all below those of an average person!"

When things get to this point, Kazuma Sato will say these words without hesitation.

"I... I'm very light, okay!"

"But I'm not very strong, and I might hurt you. Besides, it's because you're a goddess! Beautiful and kind-hearted, with all your attributes surpassing those of ordinary people! You must be very strong too! With great power comes great responsibility, so Aqua should carry me!"

Beatrice listened to Kazuma Sato's words and didn't know how to respond for a moment.

Even setting aside the fact that she had no idea what those terms meant, a normal person wouldn't think that she was praising herself, right?

Upon hearing Kazuma Sato's effusive praise, Aqua's face lit up with an incredibly joyful smile:

"That's right! As a goddess, it's my duty to lend a helping hand to you ordinary people! Come on up, Kazuma!"

Aqua squatted down and gestured for Kazuma Sato to ride on her shoulders.

"Hello....."

Beatrice only felt a slight headache.

She forgot one thing.

That means Aqua is not a normal person.

However, looking at the scene before her, Beatrice couldn't help but recall that she and her mother had done similar things in the past.

That period is truly unforgettable.

With everyone's attention focused on the performance ahead, no one noticed him. Kazuma Sato nonchalantly climbed onto Aqua's shoulders.

"Betty, why don't you climb onto my shoulders too?"

Just then, Kazuma Sato turned to Beatrice and said something.

"Huh? Betty, Betty doesn't want to!"

Beatrice was stunned for a moment, then shook her head vigorously.

"Don't be shy, no one can see us now, right?"

"That's not the problem!"

"Shouldn't little kids love riding on adults' shoulders?"

"Betty isn't a little kid!"

"Hey Kazuma, did you consider how I, who's at the very bottom, felt when you said that? You might get punished by the heavens!"

Aqua said with a smile.

Now I have to support the weight of two people!

“Aqua, you are the strongest. If it were Eris, she would carry both of us without any effort.”

Kazuma Sato lowered his head and said.

"That guy with the breast pads! This goddess will not lose to someone who even has to fake their breasts. If I really become queen, I will abolish all breast pads in this country! Come on up, Betty!"

"Betty never agreed!"

Beatrice's face was already flushed. No matter how you look at it, this kind of thing is still a little embarrassing, isn't it?

After all, there were so many people...

However, she did have a slight longing for it deep down.

After a few seconds of hesitation, Beatrice took Sato Kazuma's hand and climbed onto his neck.

"It's coming!"

Aqua took a deep breath, then stood up, carrying the weight of two people on her back.

The three people appeared on the outermost side of the crowd in a strange posture.

"What kind of performance was it exactly?"

Kazuma Sato couldn't help but feel curious about what kind of performance could attract so many viewers. The current height was perfect, allowing him to see the scene in front of him.

A man lies on a chair with a stone slab placed on his chest.

The other person was holding a hammer, eager to try it out.

Is there such a talent performance as breaking a boulder on one's chest in this world?

However, in general, most of these performances are fake; the stone slabs are specially made performance props that will break if you apply too much force.

In a sense, it is indeed rare to see this kind of performance in this world, but it shouldn't have attracted so many people to watch.

Wait, wait, wait...

Just then, Kazuma Sato suddenly realized that something was wrong.

The person performing the act of breaking a boulder on his chest looked quite familiar.

It was Gaston and Hambarley.

No way...

Kazuma Sato's forehead broke out in a sweat as he recalled his words from yesterday, instructing the trio to find a way to make money.

After becoming followers of Aqua, they become multi-talented.

Kazuma Sato did consider having them perform to earn money, but his main purpose in saying those words was to guide Rajens to seek help from his family.

He hadn't expected that Hambari and Gaston would actually be busking.

and....

There are still so many viewers?

Is this right?

"Idiot Kazuma, are those two guys...?"

Beatrice frowned, looked ahead, and recognized the identities of the two people in front of her.

Although they only met for the first time yesterday, she already knew that these two guys were now Sato Kazuma's followers.

"Shh... let's pretend we don't know them for now..."

Kazuma Sato couldn't help but swallow hard; he really wanted to complain.

Because the one pressed under the stone slab was Hambali, a dwarf.

The one holding the hammer was none other than the tall Gaston.

Shouldn't Gaston be under the slate?

Just then, Gaston gripped the hammer and slammed it down on the stone slab!

The stone slab crumbled in an instant!

Not only that, but the chair beneath Hambari was also destroyed, and he fell to the ground.

This, this is not acting!

As Hambari stood up, the crowd erupted in enthusiastic applause, and countless coins were thrown around them, landing beside the two.

"The power of faith in the Goddess of Waste is actually this strong... Ah Han was able to withstand that attack... If becoming a believer can enhance one's abilities, then it's not impossible for me to do the same..."

As soon as Kazuma Sato finished speaking, he saw what appeared to be a mouthful of blood coming out of Hambari's mouth.

Let's just forget about it...

Kazuma Sato, his face darkening, muttered in a low voice:

"Betty, let's get down."

"Um....."

Soon, Beatrice and Kazuma Sato climbed off Aqua's body as if Hercules had disintegrated.

Aqua, on the other hand, asked eagerly.

The two people in front of him responded with silence.

"What is it? Tell me quickly!"

Left with no other choice, Kazuma Sato recounted everything he had just witnessed.

"..."

Aqua quickly developed the same black lines on her face as the two of them.
