Chapter 106 The Demon King's army does not speak the same language.
Charlotte decides to return to Axel.
The squad was temporarily disbanded, and it wasn't easy for him and Youyou to survive in the capital where the monsters were too strong. After thinking it over, it was better to return to Axel.
Now that he was a wealthy man, he didn't hesitate to take a carriage and instead chose to go to the teleportation house. With the help of Youyou, who spent 80, he was teleported back to Axel.
"Axel is definitely more reassuring."
Charlotte stretched out a big yawn.
Perhaps it's because the capital is constantly harassed by the Demon King's army, but both the residents and the knights are in a tense atmosphere.
In contrast, Axel, the starting town, is incredibly relaxed and leisurely. Of course, this could also be a psychological effect.
He then extended an invitation to the Crimson Demon girl beside him.
"Does Youyou want to go to the mansion too?"
"Really!? — Never mind, I really want to go, I really want to go! But, I have something else to do, so —"
"Oh, then maybe next time."
Charlotte said this dryly.
After parting ways, he didn't rush back, but instead went to Wiz's magic item shop first.
Push open the door.
The melodious sound of wind chimes rang out.
"Welcome!" Wiz said gently, her eyes lighting up slightly when she saw him. "Mr. Charlotte, you've returned from the capital?"
"yes."
Charlotte nodded.
She said that news of Charlotte and the others' great victory over the Demon King's daughter in the capital had already reached Axel. Although not everyone knew about it, it was pretty much common knowledge.
Claire also stated that this was something worth publicizing, as it could give others confidence in fighting the Demon King's army, and that she had already informed them in advance.
He said he didn't care.
"I didn't expect you to actually defeat Ms. Yasaka—it seems Mr. Charlotte's strength has surpassed mine." Wiz congratulated her sincerely, her expression a mixture of happiness and loss, perhaps thinking of herself back then.
"That's not the case."
Charlotte shook her head and recounted her previous battle with the Demon King's daughter, explaining that she had only used a trick. Upon hearing that Charlotte had employed an internal organ attack, her smile stiffened.
Women are indeed less able to see or hear these things.
Seeing that the atmosphere was a bit cold, Charlotte quickly changed the subject, saying, "Wiz, I'm here to pay back the money—here, 5000 million."
"There's no need to be in such a hurry!"
"No, I always feel uncomfortable owing money to others, so it's better to pay it back. By the way, don't spend this money for now."
Why?
"You might need it soon."
Wiz found it strange, but Charlotte pretended to be mysterious and didn't tell her the reason. One reason was that Banir was coming soon. As the new owner of the magic item shop, if they had this money as start-up capital, the construction of the dungeon would probably be much faster.
This is a way of repaying Lolisa for her help.
nightmare?
This serves as a reminder to myself.
After Charlotte left Wiz's magic item shop, she went to the dream demon shop in the corner of town. When she saw him, the dream demons' eyes lit up and they greedily crowded around her.
Of course.
Charlotte transformed them into little (mu) women, then strode away from the succubus shop with his head held high—having already leveled up, mere succubi could no longer affect him.
Back to the mansion in the suburbs.
I could hear arguing inside the room even before I entered.
"How long are you going to keep being so lazy and lazy?! Get back to work!"
"No way! As a certain great man once said (Kafka), my greatest strengths are laziness and despondency. Going out to work is something I'd rather die than do! Besides, I was just killed by General Winter once; I'm still traumatized!"
"Well—"
Huihui couldn't utter a single reprimanding word.
When Charlotte entered the mansion, she greeted them, saying, "You guys are really making a ruckus every day. I could hear you guys in the courtyard."
"—Charlotte!"
"Charlotte, you're back?"
"I'm finally back!"
Welcome back!
The group greeted him warmly upon seeing him. Perhaps because the team had been struggling since his departure, they desperately needed someone to lead them.
"Ah, I'm back."
Charlotte's constantly tense nerves also relaxed at this moment.
evening.
Darkness prepared a lavish dinner, and as the group sat at the table, a doll appeared silently and sat on Charlotte's lap.
It's time for story time.
Kazuma Sato asked eagerly, "How did it go? Where did you and Mitsurugi go? Did anything interesting happen along the way?"
"certainly!"
Charlotte, with a touch of pride and a hint of boasting, recounted her adventure to them: the dragon leader, the goblin kobold, the demon king's daughter, and Viscount Scott.
"Wow, that's amazing!"
"They actually fought the Demon King's daughter? That's a truly formidable enemy. Every time, she leads her army to conquer the Crimson Demon Village, and we can only flee in disarray."
"That viscount has so much money?! He's just a viscount! Damn it, have the kingdom's nobles become this greedy?!"
-
"What? You don't have any sparkling wine?"
These guys have completely different interests.
Kazuma Sato asked curiously, "So, how was the trip?"
"Hmm—" Charlotte thought for a moment, "The dragon leader is unreasonable, the battlefield is chaotic and unpredictable, and the Demon King's army speaks a different language. How did the Kingdom's knights and adventurers manage to resist the Demon King's army? How did they coordinate and command everyone together? In the sky, on the ground, with magic, explosions, and even splitting a body in two—how did they do all that? This experience (level) is invaluable."
"I see—"
Kazuma Sato nodded. He knew that leveling up with high-level adventurers like Hibiki Mitsurugi would be very fast, but it was absolutely impossible for him to go on adventures.
As for Aqua, Darkness, and Megumin, their eyes lit up when they heard that Charlotte had received 5000 million. But their eyes immediately dimmed when they heard that the money was being returned to Wiz.
These guys are way too easy to understand.
"And Aqua, don't let your eyes wander. Don't even think about bullying Wiz or trying to extort money from him under the guise of protection money, okay?"
"I...I wouldn't do that kind of thing!"
That idiot goddess will definitely do that.
"I must say, this trip sounds amazing," Kazuma Sato exclaimed. "I just never expected that Charlotte would bring this back—"
Look at the capes in the restaurant.
He had actually wanted to complain about it for a long time.
After all, the cloak didn't conceal any inanimate objects. Not only that, she also helped Darkness cook, helped Aqua clean, tidied Megumin's room, and now she's brewed a pot of tea for everyone—
"What the hell is this thing?"
"Wait—! You idiot!!"
Kazuma Sato's words provoked the cloak.
It rushed over, grabbed Sato Kazuma by the neck, and lifted him up, scaring him into apologizing repeatedly.
