I love time travel the most!

"I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry. I just saw you guys were too nervous and wanted to ease the tension." Kobayashi slowly put down the luggage he was carrying, twisted his neck confidently, and said, "Leave the rest to me."

"Wait, wait... what do you mean by handing it over to you?" Taylor was still confused about the situation.

"Of course, I'll take it down."

"Huh...?! Are you serious? Kobayashi, aren't you the lowest-ranking adventurer? How are you going to defeat it?"

"So, stop treating me like that newbie I used to be."

As they spoke, Kobayashi drew his longsword and deftly dodged the rookie assassin's attack.

When facing an attack from a feline predator, you must be wary of its first three attacks. If you can dodge its pounce, swat, and slash, and miss all three, you'll lose most of your confidence.

Therefore, Xiaolin should try to deplete its stamina as much as possible.

Taylor and the others couldn't help, and if they rashly intervened, they might do more harm than good. So they could only watch as Xiaolin kept dodging and weaving in the woods, their hearts pounding with anxiety.

However, as time went by, apart from looking somewhat disheveled with dirty clothes, Xiaolin was actually not injured.

Their hearts were finally at ease.

"Roar--!!!"

Normally, the newbie killer is much more agile and dexterous than the novice adventurer, but no matter how hard it tries, it can't catch the little bug in front of it, and gradually its patience and stamina are exhausted.

"Ho~~~"

It already has plans to retreat.

However, Kobayashi wouldn't let it go, otherwise all his hard work over the years would be wasted.

"It's my turn next."

A purple light flashed, and Kobayashi's figure vanished instantly, reappearing behind the rookie assassin.

A sword was plunged into the carotid artery in its neck, and the next second, bright red blood gushed out.

The rookie killer went berserk, running wildly and crashing into several towering trees before finally collapsing to the ground, lifeless.

"They...they actually killed him...?!"

"And only one strike?"

"So strong!!!"

Taylor, Chisley, and the other two exclaimed in surprise.

Kobayashi, on the other hand, secretly reveled in their adoring, shocked, and admiring gazes.

Now I finally understand why those third-rate toilet paper parlors always love to stage this kind of plot where someone is initially looked down upon but then turns the tables and slaps them in the face—because it's really satisfying.

Chapter 113 Kazuma Sato: I'm doomed, I'm going to get screwed.

"I want money!"

Inside the guild, Sato Kazuma sat in a corner, groaning in agony, and forced out these words through gritted teeth.

The rest of the team was surprised.

“Why do you have such an idea?”

Is there a place that requires a lot of money?

Everyone wants money, right?

The group chattered excitedly, looking at Sato Kazuma, who was slumped over the table with his hands covering his head.

"how to say……"

Kazuma Sato lowered his head and said loudly, "Now, whether it's eating, having fun, or other activities, Kobayashi-senpai will give me money, and even more pocket money on top of that."

"That's right, so what else could you possibly be dissatisfied with?"

Everyone was even more puzzled.

Kazuma Sato once explicitly stated that his wish was to be kept by a generous older woman with long black hair so he could laze around all day.

Although the result was slightly off, half of the wish has been fulfilled.

"But...but...!!!"

I'm willing to pay for the succubus store myself at least!

...He just couldn't bring himself to say those words in front of everyone.

In fact, Xiaolin had already thought of this and set up a special budget for him to release stress and relieve his excessive energy. He was extremely moved when he found out.

But it was precisely because of this that he felt a sense of shame.

If Xiaolin were a girl, he would definitely cling to her leg and beg to be taken care of, but it's a different story if Xiaolin is a man.

He can't bend over in front of men!

With that in mind, Kazuma Sato called out, "Everyone, let's go on a mission!"

"Eh--"

Aqua was the first to resist, making a sound of disgust.

"What, don't you want to go to work?"

"Do not want to."

Perhaps Aqua's answer was too straightforward, for Kazuma Sato was taken aback.

"Hey, Aqua, if I don't work, I won't have money, and I won't be able to drink bubble tea. Is that okay?"

"It's okay, Kobayashi will take care of me."

Aqua clasped her hands together like a sacred goddess, but the words she spoke were exceptionally harsh.

"Unlike the scumbag He Zhen, who only sneaks around at night, often makes advances on girls who pass by, is not respectful to me, does not offer me any tributes, and only constantly berates me, Xiaolin will spoil me."

"You guy..."

Hard, hard, hard fist.

Kazuma Sato slammed his fist on the table and shouted, "Hey! Have you forgotten that I'm the one who brought you to the mortal realm? If you have any shame, stop bothering Kobayashi-senpai all the time!"

"Wait! I can't pretend I didn't hear that!"

A hand reached out from behind and placed on his shoulder.

Kazuma Sato was startled.

Turning around, I saw a handsome young man dressed in black armor, accompanied by two beautiful young women dressed in revealing outfits.

For some reason, I always felt that he was someone people were jealous of.

“…Who are you?”

I asked this question subconsciously.

"Yujian Xiangye, I think you should have heard of this name."

The handsome young man confidently stated his name, seemingly quite certain that they recognized him.

however--

"who is it?"

"do not know."

"do not know."

He had no idea that these people were complete problem children who didn't care about other people's affairs at all.

"Miyuki Hibiki! You've never heard of that name before?!"

"So you're saying you don't know? If you have nothing else to do, please leave, okay?"

Kazuma Sato slapped his hand away in disgust.

Mikage Hibiki clenched her fist, and seeing that Sato Kazuma and the others really didn't recognize her, she looked at Aqua and said, "Goddess, you are Goddess Aqua, right?"

"Goddess? That's right, I'm a goddess!"

Aqua paused for a moment.

Upon hearing the keyword, she remembered that she had this setting, and immediately stood up proudly, pouting her little nose.

"As expected of the goddess!"

Mikami Hibiki excitedly stepped forward, pointed at herself, and said, "Goddess, do you still recognize me!"

"……Who are you?"

"It is I! Mitsurugi Hibiki! I have come to the mortal realm with the Demon Sword Gram. I am the hero you have chosen!"

"I'm sorry... Well, I had to serve so many people every day back then, it's understandable that I would forget, right?"

Aqua's unreliable behavior was on full display once again.

When Xiaolin sought revenge on her, she seemed to have no recollection of it either.

This was a huge blow to Mikage Hibiki.

However, what's important is what Kazuma Sato just said.

"You just said you brought the goddess down to the mortal realm, right? What exactly happened?!"

After a brief explanation.

"Huh?!?"

Mikage Hibiki cried out in shock, grabbing Sato Kazuma by the collar and scolding, "You bastard, why did you do this!"

"Wait, what do you want to do, Sword Master?"

Kobayashi, who had been absent, suddenly appeared, slapped away Mitsurugi Hibiki's wrist, and stood in front of Sato Kazuma to stop him from attempting to use violence.

"Senior Kobayashi!"

Kazuma Sato was deeply moved as he looked at the broad back that stood in front of him, and his heart was in turmoil.

He really doesn't want to stick his butt out!
