The legend of the Crimson Demon clan started from Suqing.

Chapter 75 The Devil in the Dog Trough is Still Chasing Me

It takes about two days to travel from Alcanretia to Axel. To be honest, the carriage was not comfortable to ride in. It made his butt hurt. It was far less comfortable than the planes and cars he took in his previous life.

But he didn't feel bored along the way.

“Hey Huihui, it’s time to switch places with me. Almost an hour has passed.”

"But my body senses that only ten minutes have passed."

The two of them had an argument over the window seat, teasing each other about how close they were, and in the end Hui Hui won. But before she could feel proud, she heard the rustling sound of flipping pages.

When I turned around, I saw Zun Zun reading a book.

Leisurely playing made her feel at ease, while strict studying made her feel uneasy.

After all, she considered herself to be one of the best explosion magicians in the Crimson Demon Clan, but after leaving the village, she never read any books, nor did she defeat monsters to improve her strength. She only thought about eating, drinking, having fun and imagining a better future.

Huihui felt ashamed of her laziness.

I feel like ants are crawling all over my body!
Youyou was also stunned for a moment, and subconsciously asked: "Zunzun, what book are you reading?"

Zun Zun stood the book up so that the two could see the written cover: "The Method of Making Advanced Magic Tools, and I saw the method of making magic crystals."

“Magic crystal?” Huihui blinked.

On the contrary, Youyou was more knowledgeable and said, "Is it a crystal that can be used to indirectly release magic?"

"Yes."

Zun Zun nodded: "The magic crystal is very powerful. Even explosion magic can be released with it."

"Explosion magic!? Doesn't that mean that with this, I can use explosion magic as many times as I want?"

Huihui’s eyes lit up.

Her biggest weakness at the moment is that she will die after releasing a burst of magic. Wouldn't it be possible to have unlimited firing rights if she had the magic crystal?

“That’s the theory. But Megumin should know that any power has a price.”

The magic crystal draws magic power from it and circulates it through the body to release magic. It's okay once or twice, but if it happens too many times, it will put a burden on the body, especially for a weak kid like Huihui, who uses the most powerful explosive magic.

Hui Hui said excitedly: "Let's not talk about this for now. Zun Zun, have you learned how to make magic crystals?"

"I have learned it. To be precise, I did not learn how to make it, but how to mine it. Magic crystals are mined from magic crystal mines."

Zun Zun saw her expression and said, "And the lowest quality magic crystal costs as much as 10 Eris. To achieve the same effect as Explosion Magic, you need the highest quality magic crystal. It can even buy a house in the capital."

"A house in the capital..."

Huihui curled her lips. She didn’t know how high the housing prices in the royal capital were, but since it was the royal capital, it must be expensive. And if a piece of the highest quality magic crystal was the same price as a house in the royal capital, she knew she would never be able to afford it in her lifetime.

It's even a disposable item!

Huihui lowered her head in disappointment, then switched seats with Youyou and gave her the window seat.

Youyou was not happy about this. Instead, she felt a little flustered when she saw her good friend looking so lonely. She wanted to comfort her but didn't know where to start, so she could only look at Zunzun helplessly.

Zun Zun didn’t see Youyou’s call for help, but when Huihui suddenly fell silent, he knew what was going on.

As he turned the pages to the next chapter, "How to Make Advanced Energy Potion," he said, "Huihui, don't be so disappointed. Think about it in a different way. Your explosion magic is worth a house in the capital, and you can use it once a day. You can imagine how powerful you are."

Huihui was stunned for a moment, then suddenly puffed out her chest and shouted, “Yes! My explosion magic is unmatched, so isn’t it natural that it’s worth a house in the capital? My name is Huihui! I’m the best explosion magician of the Crimson Demon Clan! Now I’ll let you taste the power of a house in the capital!”

…although the damage she caused went far beyond just a house.

Then, Huihui turned to look at Yunyun and said, "It's been an hour, it's time to switch with me." "Huh? Wait, wait! It's only been ten minutes!"

"It's the same as mine. It's just your perceived time. And I just lost an hour. Come on, change places with me!"

"That's the time you felt. You were only depressed for ten minutes!"

Youyou yelled, and then the two of them wrestled happily again.

Zun Zun shook his head in amusement.

……

Between Alcanretia and Axel is a vast expanse of flat land, with endless plains in all directions, and any disturbance can be detected.

This caravan had a total of ten carriages. While traveling to various towns to do business, they also used the empty seats to carry passengers and collected fares.

Normally speaking, monsters would rarely attack a caravan of this size.

After all, it is not the breeding season for running lizards, and there is no perverted female knight in the car whose body is as hard as adamantium.

It's just after noon.

The breeze on your face is refreshing.

The other passengers in the carriage, apart from them, were also scattered around the grass, sitting down to eat their lunch boxes or take a nap, resting in their own way.

Yunyun, who was sitting on the grass, murmured with a comfortable look on her face: "It's so leisurely... Looking at this scenery, it really makes me feel that the news that the Demon King's army was causing chaos in the capital was false..."

No, this should be true.

The Demon King's army was probably planning to harass the capital, making it impossible for the capital to mobilize the kingdom's army to attack them. This was a very strategic battle plan.

Zun Zun handed the lunch boxes he had prepared in advance to the two of them.

After getting the lunch box, Huihui started to eat it with relish. This guy was the most enthusiastic about eating.

As she ate, she said, "Youyou, if you say something like that, be careful that some ignorant monsters will come and attack us. But for me who wants to use magic, this is what I want. When the time comes, let them have a taste of the power of a house in the capital!"

"…I'd better be more cautious."

"If we can continue on this path safely, we should be able to reach the town in the evening if everything goes well."

"Shut up! Don't say anything that will raise a flag, okay? Didn't we learn in school that these words are written in the book of lines that cannot be said!"

Yunyun grabbed Huihui's shoulders and shook her hard.

Zun Zun also felt that there would be no monsters attacking. After all, the biggest hidden danger, Enis, should be far away from them at the moment. Without her doing something in secret, they would definitely not be in danger.

Haha, can you kill me in seconds?
Seven days of journey, can you kill me in one second? If you can kill me in one second today, I will -

"Curse the lightning!"

At this moment, a woman's shrill scream was heard and a flash of light came rushing over.

At the critical moment, Zun Zun threw himself forward with one of them in one hand. The flash of light from the sky hit the three of them from behind, and the dust that was raised buried them.

Pull your head out of the soil and lift it up.

In the sky is Ernest, floating in the air with her wings spread, and Hoster, who looks like a demon, flapping his wings.

The devil in the dog trough is still chasing me!
