The legend of the Crimson Demon clan started from Suqing.

Chapter 268 Fortunately, she is not a goddess, otherwise it would be unlucky

The contracts between elves vary.

For example, Parker decides Emilia's hairstyle and outfit every day.

As for Zun Zun, he says "I love you" to Xiao Hei every day, says "Good morning, good night" to Xiao Bai every day, plays with Xiao Huang for an hour every day, goes for an outing with Xiao Lu once a week, and uses magic to draw on Xiao Hong's magic power first, and Xiao Lan only heals girls except himself.

The restrictions are a bit more numerous and complicated.

As for why the fairy spirit (elves) could be brought back, Zun Zun thought of a possibility.

First of all, the fairy spirit usually stays in the catalyst, that is, the high-purity magic crystal, to store magic for materialization. Although the quasi-elves do not need too much magic, it will also reduce the magic consumption of the Zun Zun.

Then the only high-purity magic crystal on Zun Zun's body is the gem on his forehead that can travel through time and space.

In addition, it has been fused with its inherent spiritual equipment, that is, the soul, and with the blessing of the contract, it is classified as the existence of Zun Zun itself, and the immortal spirits (elves) can travel through the world with him.

……perhaps.

There may be more mysteries or other reasons hidden in it, but I won't explore it. Don't explore too much, after all, if you take it seriously, you will lose.

Return to the hotel in Alcanretia.

My head was still a little dizzy, so I asked Aqua to help with the treatment. With a goddess as a qualified worker here, why bother the fairy?
In just a second, he was healed.

"I see. Miss Weiss has already gone back?"

"Yes, because Axel's shop cannot be left unattended - she used this excuse to leave in a hurry after purifying Hans' body and the hot spring."

They still live in that hotel.

But the weak Lich Queen is no longer there.

It's commendable that she cares about the magic item shop, but she won't be able to help at all after she returns. Vanir probably hopes that she will never go back.

"Hans' body has been purified, and the hot spring city is operating as usual. Doesn't that mean there is nothing for us to do?"

"Normally that's the case, but..."

Darkness hesitated.

Zun Zun frowned. This was not like her. Did something happen?
Just as he was about to ask, the door of the hotel room suddenly opened, and then something slid in, opened its arms and hugged his thighs. He subconsciously raised his legs and stepped on the other person's face.

"Oh~!"

The visitor moaned in pleasure, and Zun Zun was so scared that he immediately took his feet away. He took a closer look and exclaimed, "Isn't this Lord Zesta who can do anything?"

"Come again! Come step on me again!"

"I do not want!"

Zun Zun took a step back in disgust.

Not only Darkness, but also Megumin, Yunyun, Satou Kazuma and the others all had expressions of being unable to bear it.

Yes.

Even though they are all problem children, they are still not enough in front of the problem old man, not to mention Lord Zesta who can do anything.

"Ahem, sorry for being rude. I accidentally let you see my inappropriate side."

He stood up, dusted himself off, and pretended to cough, as if he wanted to restore the dignity of the Supreme Archbishop of the Axis Church. However, those who knew his true nature would not be fooled.

"You should have met this Supreme Archbishop. He heard that we had defeated Hans, a cadre of the Demon King's Army, and purified the polluted hot springs, so he hurried back."

Darkness explained.

Aqua was very happy to see him coming. She ran to Zesta without any respect, patted him on the shoulder without any hesitation, and said, "You are finally here. The bubble wine you promised me before—"

"Yes, I have brought it to you, Aqua-sama."

Zesta said with a smile.

There was obvious respect and admiration in his eyes, and he was not angry at the stupid goddess's abrupt behavior. Aqua shouted after getting the wine, opened the bottle in front of him, whistled and drank it in one gulp, and then shouted happily.

Zesta even clapped his hands and said something true to his nature.

Shouldn't it?
"Hey, come with me."

Zun Zun pulled him by the shoulder and walked to the corner of the room.

"My Lord, what can I do for you?"

"I said, you don't know that Aqua is..."

"I do not know anything."

Zesta answered decisively. Although he was smiling, there was a serious look in his eyes.

not bad.

I thought this guy was a fanatic with a mental problem, and that he would lose control of his attitude when he found out that Aqua was the goddess he believed in. I didn't expect him to be so calm.

"I have never admitted it. If you don't believe me..."

Zesta motioned for him to look to the side.

Sato Kazuma and Aqua were tussling with each other, and the two seemed to be arguing over drinks.

"You drank it all in one breath!"

“What’s wrong with that? It’s offered to me anyway! If you want to know why, I’m a goddess, the goddess Aqua! The drinks offered to me by my followers, why can’t I enjoy them all by myself? Right, my follower Zesta!”

Aqua asked Zesta for confirmation.

however--

"Aqua-sama, although you have the same name as the goddess we worship, please do not pretend to be the goddess of water, Aqua. If other believers hear you, they will be furious and throw you into a pig cage."

“Why——!”

The stupid goddess who was denied by her believer again burst into tears and was laughed at by Sato Kazuma. No one else could be regarded as a goddess to this extent.

"As your honorable lord can see, I am not exposed."

Zesta said this gently.

He knew very well that the Axis Cult was a thorn in the side of the Demon King's army. If the goddess they worshipped was in the underworld, the Demon King's army would definitely surround them like crazy and eliminate the goddess they worshipped at any cost.

As a believer, how can you let the goddess fall into danger?
Don't say it!

Don't tell me!
This guy has some brains.

"So." Zesta suddenly leaned over, got close to Zun Zun, and asked in a low voice: "Who is the goddess, Master Zun Zun?"

"……what?"

"I originally formed an alliance with the Crimson Demons because you were the goddess we worshipped, but when I saw Aqua-sama, I realized that I was wrong. So which goddess are you, or... are you Aqua-sama's illegitimate child!?"

"That's not true!"

Zun Zun rolled his eyes in annoyance.

He glanced at the stupid goddess who was fighting with Sato Kazuma for the bubble wine. It would be bad luck if his parents were such people.

Zun Zun corrected him.

"I'm just an ordinary Crimson Demon."

"Really? ...Although I think the Crimson Demons are fundamentally unusual."

Well!
There is absolutely no way to refute it.

If we were to say which group in this world is the most unbearable, the first one would undoubtedly be the Axis Cult, and the second one would be the Crimson Demon Clan.

Now that the two organizations that cause the most headaches for the Demon King's army have formed an alliance, I think the Demon King must be having a headache to death.

not good.

I couldn't help but sympathize with the devil.

When Zun Zun felt sympathy for the Demon King, he found two idiots approaching him with flattering smiles. Seeing their funny faces, he couldn't help but twitched his mouth. "What?"

“Well… Zun-zun, you just came back, and Aqua and I were thinking about celebrating and holding a welcome party or something…”

"This way you can drink as much bubbles as you want!"

"Idiot, don't tell me your real purpose!"

Sato Kazuma pulled Aqua's cheek and angrily accused her of exposing their purpose, but the stupid goddess fought back and the two of them started fighting in front of everyone again.

These two guys are really like-minded scumbags!

Zun Zun was completely speechless. They didn't want to celebrate at all. They just wanted to take advantage of this opportunity and find an excuse to drink as much as they wanted.

It was absolutely impossible to ask them to pay, so -

“Hahaha! Great, then let Clergyman Axis host this banquet.”

Zesta said with a chuckle.

Zun Zun rolled his eyes.

I really hope he won't be so accommodating to these two idiots.

night.

Zesta held a grand banquet in the church of the Axis Church. Aqua performed a gorgeous talent on the spot and won a lot of applause. Sato Kazuma rarely stopped her.

Huihui and Youyou compete to see who can eat more.

Darkness was enjoying the ridicule from the Axis followers.

Even Zun Zun and elder sister Tristan - who advocated the creed that as long as there is love, even if they are brothers and sisters..., the two had a good chat. During the conversation, Zun Zun said that as long as she had such an idea, he would support her after Zesta abdicated and let her become the next leader of the Axis Church.

Tristan said that as long as she could get to the top, she would definitely promote her ideas.

The two reached a close alliance.

For the next few days, Zun Zun and his family enjoyed themselves in Alcanretia.

Day one, banquet.

The next day, banquet.

Day three, banquet.

On the fourth day, my Lord, my Lord...you can't continue to degenerate like this. Don't you still have the grand wish of becoming the Demon King? You are just wasting your time here and wasting your ambitions.

Day 5, banquet.

The days in this town were very pleasant. There was a small party every three days and a big party every five days. The whole day was spent drinking... Especially Aqua, who was so flattered by Zesta that she didn't even know who she was.

So one night, everyone except Aqua gathered together.

"This can't go on like this."

Sato Kazuma was the first to speak. He said seriously, "We have caused a lot of trouble to everyone in the Axis Church during this period. We must leave now."

"Oh? Kazuma actually said he wanted to leave. That's really strange."

"That's because this guy was hurt yesterday."

"what happened?"

Seeing his constipated look, Zun Zun became even more curious, and Hui Hui pouted and said, "This guy met a girl who was particularly suitable for him yesterday. He thought she liked him and came to chat with him, but..."

"She is actually a member of the Axis Cult."

Youyou looked at him with sympathy.

Zun Zun also suddenly realized.

"Damn it!" Sato Kazuma slammed the table and said unwillingly, "How dare you play with my innocence like this... In short, we have to go back!"

"Yes, I will go back. Besides... I don't have any more tricks to attract people. I don't know what to do when facing those believers."

Megumin made a frightening statement.

"So what about Darkness and Yunyun?"

"I... to be honest, I like this town very much, but the strength here is gradually not enough for me. In addition, my father is really worried about me because of the Demon King's army cadres, so I have to go back."

Darkness is still as perverted as ever.

Youyou said that she had wanted to go back for a long time.

"But what should we do with Aqua?" Zun Zun spread his hands and said, "That idiot is already enjoying herself and doesn't want to go back. She will definitely not want to go back. She might even say she wants to stay."

"Don't worry, I have a solution."

Sato Kazuma looks very confident.

And early the next morning.

Zun Zun and the others had just gotten up and were having breakfast when Aqua hurried in and said, "Everyone, let's go back!"

"……Eh?"

"What's wrong Aqua? You're in such a hurry to leave. That's not like you at all."

“What are you talking about, Megumin?”

Aqua excitedly said loudly to the dumbfounded little girl, "The reward for our expedition against Hans, the general of the Demon King's Army, has been issued. 3 million! A full 3 million Eris! I don't know why the Kingdom sent them to Axel, but as long as the money is there, it's fine! Let's go, everyone!"

So that’s it, it’s all thanks to money.

Money that can make the devil work can naturally make the stupid goddess run away. Behind Aqua, Sato Kazuma proudly made a "yeah" gesture to him.

Afterwards, everyone said goodbye to Zesta.

When the Supreme Archbishop of the Axis Cult learned that Aqua and the others were leaving, he naturally tried his best to keep them, but he could not resist Aqua's determination to return to Axel, so he finally reluctantly agreed to let them leave.

"Then please accept the Alcanretia specialties I prepared for you, sir."

"Oh, you don't have to be so polite... eh?"

Zun Zun said you're welcome, but he took the package swiftly. However, when he touched the square package, he felt a strong sense of uneasiness.

Open it and take a look.

There was actually a pile of applications for teaching!

"Only a devil would want this thing!"

Zun Zun angrily threw the application at Jesta.

"It hurts. I spent so much time thinking about this, it's the most unique Alcanretia specialty."

Zesta rubbed his aching nose.

Is this guy serious?

"By the way, didn't Miss Cecily come back with Mr. Jesta?"

"Oh, you mean Miss Cecily? Unfortunately, she is not with me. She is working hard to accumulate merits in order to become a priestess of the Axel branch. But don't worry, she will meet you again soon."

"It's still free."

Zun Zun felt very bad when he heard the news. If that perverted female priest came over, who knows what trouble she would cause.

After saying goodbye to Zesta, the group set out on their journey home.

……How can it be.

Zun Zun, who had already learned how to teleport, of course used magic to go back.
