I, Asuna, don't want to travel around the world

"Of course not. Besides, if you live together, you, Chris, Darkness and the others will surely become friends faster!"

Asuna attacked Youyou's weak spot directly, not giving her any chance to resist.

"Friends?... I get it!"

"Well, let me help you move your luggage out of the hotel first, and then we can go home directly."

"Ok!"

Youyou's steps suddenly became lighter and the smile on her face became brighter.

Friends... Huihui, I made friends!

Feeling the warmth coming from his palm, the figure of his best friend slowly emerged in Youyou's mind.

Although that guy often bullied her, it was undeniable that she was her childhood playmate.

And now, I have made friends besides her!

This makes Youyou very happy.

I will definitely make more friends in the future!

Youyou thought with joy, not realizing at all that it would be difficult to make friends if she relied on herself.

After all, her personality of wanting to run away when she was shy made it difficult for her to make friends.

Even if someone wants to be friends with her, they have to be able to find her.

You know, not everyone has Asuna's excellent perception.

Once Youyou is given the chance to escape, it will be difficult for those people to find him again.

Otherwise, those adventurers who had received Youyou's kindness would have thanked her long ago.

Why should I wait until later and ask Asuna for an introduction before I can go find Youyou to thank her?

Near the gate of the villa, Youyou's originally high-spirited demeanor turned back into that cautious look.

At this moment, she was like a frightened cat, her feet seemed to have taken root and she couldn't take that step.

Asuna held Yunyun with one hand and carried the newly bought ingredients with the other, looking at her with an amused expression.

"What's wrong? Who just said that he wanted to make friends with them? Why don't you dare to go in now?"

“No… No way!”

Youyou blushed and defended herself, then faltered and couldn't find any reason to defend herself. She had no choice but to lower her head in self-abandonment.

“Okay, okay, this isn’t a dangerous dungeon, and there aren’t any scary monsters here. I just have companions to work with in the future.

Even if you don't go in now, you will meet them sooner or later.

Don’t worry, they are very nice people.”

"I see……"

With Asuna's comfort, Yunyun was half-dragged in by her.

But as soon as she entered the door, Youyou ran behind Asuna like a shy child.

If Asuna hadn't grabbed her hand, the child might have run away right now.

"I'm back~"

Asuna pushed the door open and shouted loudly.

Tatata!

Upstairs, there were two hurried footsteps.

"Have you recruited new teammates?!"

"If you don't recruit them, we won't let you go tonight! Asuna!"

Darkness and Chris’ voices came from upstairs one after another.

Behind her, Yunyun seemed to be getting nervous, because she was holding Asuna's hand with gradually increasing strength.

"Of course, I recruited a cute magical girl!"

Asuna blinked at Yunyun and responded loudly.

At this time, Chris and Darkness also ran down from upstairs.

Looking at Yunyun hiding behind Asuna, they almost shed tears of excitement.

"That's great." Chris choked up.

Darkness wiped the crystals from her eyes and said, "We can finally take a break!"

"Hey, hey, be normal and don't scare the kid." Asuna glared at them in dissatisfaction.

What do you mean?

Why do you act as if I abused you?

Isn't it just dragging you out to level up every day? Is it necessary to be like this?

"Sorry, we were too excited." Chris walked to Youyou with a grateful smile and said, "I'm Chris, and I'm a thief. Please take care of me in the future!"

"I'm Darkness, a Crusader by profession, and I'm the vanguard protecting you and Chris. From now on, your safety will be in my hands!"

Looking at the two people who introduced themselves one after another, Youyou opened her mouth, as if making a difficult decision, and resolutely let go of Asuna's hand.

She took a step back, threw her luggage aside, swung her magic robe, and posed in a very handsome manner, saying loudly:

"My name is Youyou! My profession is a great magician! I will eventually become the leader of the Red Demon Clan!"

Chapter 29: How can we give up helping the residents of Axel just because of temporary fatigue?

In the spacious living room, Youyou had already completely gotten into a fight with Chris and Darkness.

Not long ago, when she loudly uttered the Crimson Demon Clan’s iconic declaration, Chris and Darkness did not fall into an awkward atmosphere like the other adventurers.

Instead, he looked like he agreed.

"As expected of the Crimson Demon Clan! What they said is very impressive!" Chris touched his chin and nodded, "But the Crimson Demon Clan leader should be the most powerful person in the Crimson Demon Clan, right?

Youyou, you are aiming to become the leader of the Red Demon Clan, so you must have a deep awareness of this!

Let's work together to become stronger, Youyou!"

How could Chris not be aware of the personality traits of a magical race like the Crimson Demons?

When she saw Youyou's ruby-like eyes, she knew how to bring them closer.

Moreover, Youyou seems to be... a little different from the Crimson Demons that I know~

As he was thinking this, Chris heard Youyou's slightly panicked response.

"Eh?...Yes! I can...No, let's try our best!" Youyou's little head kept nodding, as if saying "I'll be sorry to everyone if I don't work hard."

Chris also responded heavily: "Yeah!"

Then, Youyou's eyes were carefully cast on Dakness.

Seeing this, Darkness, who had been preparing her lines for a long time, immediately smiled like an older sister!

Although all the lines she had been thinking about for a long time were said by Chris, this did not prevent her from slightly puffing out her chest, with a look of fondness in her eyes.

Fortunately, she is no longer interested in being beaten.

Otherwise, if it were her old self, she would have grabbed Youyou's hand and said something very perverted: "Please use your magic to whip me!"

but now.

Hum~!

Darkness can proudly say: "No one knows defense better than me!", "My teammates will never get hurt while I'm here!", "Want to bully my friends? Then step over my body first!"

Darkness thought she was a qualified avant-garde, but because Chris had said all she wanted to say, she had to maintain her big sister smile and said dryly, "If you need anything, please feel free to come to me for help~

Although I'm not very good at attacking, I'm quite good at protecting my companions!

If you encounter danger, hide behind me and attack the enemy as much as you want!

Before I fall, I will not let you get hurt at all!"

These words do fit an avant-garde setting.

Thinking of this, Darkness’s resentment towards Chris for just speaking the lines dissipated a lot.

How could you be the only one to love such a lovely companion? !

Don't think that just because you're my good friend, I will show mercy to you!

After reading the meaning in Darkness’s eyes, Chris laughed instead.

Let us compete fairly!

She responded.

“Okay! I understand, Sister Darkness. I will definitely get rid of the enemy as soon as possible!”

Feeling Darkness's kindness, Youyou quickly waved her little fist, indicating that she would get rid of the enemy as quickly as possible.

Seeing her excited look, Asuna just felt amused.

This child was very normal except for being awkward when introducing himself.

"Well, in that case, how about we have a nice dinner tonight?!"

Asuna clapped her hands and suggested.

"You cook?" Chris' eyes lit up.

“If we’re going out to eat, that would be too insincere, Asuna~!” Darkness raised her hand, scratched her cheek, and gave a look that said, “What kind of welcome ceremony is this if you don’t cook for us yourself!”

"Eh? Isn't that too much trouble? How about we go out to eat? The food provided by the guild is pretty good!"

Seeing that Darkness and Chris were pointing their swords at someone, Yunyun started to speak for Asuna.

"Hey, Youyou, the guild's food is soulless!" Chris shook his head repeatedly.

Youyou looked puzzled: "Huh?"

“You are our companion. How can we go out to eat to celebrate your joining us?” Darkness said solemnly. “Only by doing it ourselves can we express our friendship!”

"Is... is that so? I understand! Please let me help you!"

Recalling a good friend who had been eating her lunch box since childhood, Youyou seemed to understand something. Her bright red eyes flashed and she said happily.

Cooking together must be a joy!

She was very excited and wanted to cook with everyone right now.

"Well, Youyou is right. We should cook together. If I cook alone, it won't reflect your joy about Youyou joining us."

Asuna smiled and nodded in agreement.

"That's right!" Youyou hurriedly followed, like a little yes-man.

Chris quickly dragged Darkness to the side and muttered quietly.

"What should we do? If this continues, we won't be able to eat the food Asuna makes!"

"It must be because we didn't want to go out on the mission and made Asuna angry, how about we admit our mistake?

Besides, if we go out on a mission, Asuna might make us something delicious on the way!"

"But... the only quest left in the guild right now is the one to subdue the White Wolf Pack. The rewards for the other quests are too low. Asuna will definitely not be interested in them."

Chris made a bitter face, looking reluctant.

"We two have always been the main force! Even though the great magician Youyou has joined us now, we will still be the ones who suffer. Why don't we just forget it?"

"But if we cook together... can you eat our own food when Asuna's food is here?"

Darkness smacked her lips, savoring the taste. “Besides, we haven’t had Asuna’s cooking in a while. If we hesitate any longer, we might have to go to the guild to eat…”

"I can't run away..." Chris sighed.

"We can't help it. Our stomachs have been completely conquered by Asuna's cooking."

The two men who failed in the strike raised the white flag spinelessly.
