I love time travel the most!

A gentle breeze blew.

Unlike the storm stirred up by the raging flock of birds, the gentle breeze was much milder. The adventurers present instinctively closed their eyes, enjoying the unknown breeze.

When they opened their eyes again, all the birds' heads had vanished. The birds, with only their bodies, continued running forward due to inertia. After running for more than ten meters, they fell straight to the ground, and the air was filled with the smell of blood.

The adventurer was speechless and could only mutter to himself.

"What exactly is going on……"

Chapter 406 Huihui, I will name Xiaolin's child in the future!

Why the flock of birds suddenly went leaderless remains a mystery.

Everyone in the caravan, from merchants and adventurer guards to ordinary people, held Darkness in high esteem for his heroic act.

In particular, caravan owners insisted on offering rewards.

Knowing that the problem stemmed from his own actions, Kazuma Sato refused to accept it. Even after explaining to the caravan owner that the attack was their fault, the owner still dismissed it as a joke.

Not only that, he even felt that this was a fabricated excuse made up to avoid receiving payment, which embellished his image in front of others, making Sato Kazuma even more ashamed.

the other side.

Like Darkness, whose hard body attracts flocks of birds, Aqua is also extremely prone to attracting unclean things like zombies.

So, in order to avoid being flustered at night, Kobayashi first asked Aqua to draw a dispelling magic circle.

The silly goddess was initially reluctant, but after Kobayashi deliberately revealed her identity as the high priestess, she accepted the job under the constant flattery of the adventurers.

She's such an easy goddess to win over.

I thought this would put my mind at ease, but...

Early the next morning.

"Everyone get up! The zombies are closing in!"

"What?! It's a zombie?!"

"many!"

The alert adventurer opened his eyes and broke out in a cold sweat upon seeing the scene around him.

However, after exclaiming in surprise, she quickly calmed down and realized that the zombies were not attacking, but rather seemed to be blocked outside by something.

Suddenly remembering Aqua's magic circle from last night, a feeling of relief and gratitude welled up inside me.

With the adventurers working together, they defeated the swarming zombies, and the farsighted high priest was greeted with enthusiastic cheers from the crowd.

This is the kind of scene that's playing out on the plains right now.

Only Kazuma Sato glared at Aqua with displeasure.

I clearly told this idiot to inscribe a magic circle, but now it's turned out like this. What's even stranger is why she's being praised instead?

Even without mind reading, Kobayashi could tell he was jealous.

First Darkness, then Aqua; these two, who were originally sinners, became objects of praise.

Where does this make sense?

After a long journey by carriage, Kobayashi and his companions arrived in Alcanredia, a city known as the capital of water and hot springs.

"Well then, please make yourselves at home. I hope you have a wonderful time in this hot spring town! Oh, you've been such a great help, thank you so much!"

The caravan owner bowed several times before leaving.

Given that they had done such a great favor, and without asking for any reward under any circumstances, they were given accommodation vouchers according to the number of people.

That person seems to be the largest hotel owner in Alcanredia, and he issues accommodation vouchers based on the number of people. If you convert that into money, it seems like Kobayashi and his group would earn more.

Because there are quite a lot of people.

"Ah... Lai Li Bao... Lai Li Bao is leaving."

Huihui murmured to herself as she watched the carriage depart.

Besides them, many other passengers and adventurers disembarked here. However, even after those who disembarked entered the town, the little girl continued to watch the carriage gradually disappear into the distance until it vanished from sight.

What is "Lai Li Bao"?

Kazuma Sato, sitting in another carriage, looked completely puzzled.

Youyou then said, "It's the name of the little dragon on the carriage."

The reason Kobayashi and Sato Kazuma rode in another carriage was not only because the carriage couldn't fit so many people, but also because there was already a passenger in the carriage.

Aqua suddenly realized and said, "Now that you mention it, it seems there was a passenger who looked very wealthy who asked you, the Archmage who helped the caravan a lot, to name it, right?"

They actually asked the Crimson Demon Clan to name it? Really?

Kobayashi looked at Youyou in disbelief, and then the timid girl nodded with great sorrow.

As for why this is the case, Darkness revealed the truth: "It is said that once a dragon is named, it will not react no matter how many other names you call it."

Youyou covered her cheeks, unwilling to face reality.

Huihui nodded with deep emotion and said, "Yes, that child seemed very happy to receive the name 'Laizi Bao'. To let its owner know, I even wrote the name on a piece of paper and put it in the cage. It would be wonderful if it could receive its owner's love."

Killing someone but also killing your heart?

My team members are all truly talented.

Kazuma Sato looked at his short sword, feeling a pang of unease as he recalled how he had almost been given a strange name.

"You, please get rid of that bad habit of giving every single thing you see a weird name, okay? The naming taste of your Crimson Demon Clan is really strange! You should be more aware of that by now!"

His words also affected another Crimson Demon girl. Even the young patriarch of the Crimson Demon clan was deeply troubled by her father's strange taste in naming.

Kobayashi patted the girl's shoulder, who was on the verge of tears.

To refute Kazuma Sato, or perhaps to prove herself, Megumin shouted, "My taste is unique! It's just that Kazuma doesn't understand! Listen up, if Kobayashi has a child in the future, I'll be the one to name him!"

"I hope Miss Huihui will be lenient on this matter."

"Wait, Kobayashi, are you questioning my taste?"

"Well..."

When the little girl approached, Kobayashi turned his head away to avoid her.

They didn't say it explicitly, but they expressed it through their actions.

Kazuma Sato burst into laughter.

Huihui clenched her fists in frustration, muttering things like, "I have to give it a name, even the Demon King can't stop me, I said it..." which were really giving her a headache.

Meanwhile, a certain foolish goddess, ignoring the commotion, excitedly ran into the city, turned around, and shouted to the crowd:

"—We've arrived! The city of water and hot springs!"

Alcanredia

This town, located near a clear lake and mountains with hot springs, is filled with canals.

The buildings are all decorated in blue, making the streetscape very beautiful, and the pedestrians on the street all look full of energy.

In this world where the Demon King's army roams freely, this place is so peaceful.

In fact, they had fought against the Demon King's minions here before, but after that battle, they never came near this place again, and the word "demon" from the Demon King's name never appeared again.

As for the reason...

That's because the Axis cultists here are even more fanatical and terrifying than the Demon King's army!

"Welcome to Alcanredia! Are you here for sightseeing? To join the cult? For adventure? Or to be baptized? Oh, and if you're looking for work, be sure to come to the Axis Order! There's a great job out there: just go to other towns and spread the word about how amazing the Axis Order is, and you can earn a hefty salary! Plus, there's an extra benefit: by doing this job, you can call yourself a member of the Axis Order! Isn't that fantastic?"

As soon as Xiaolin entered the town, he was surrounded by a group of people.

They were incredibly enthusiastic and friendly, starting to recruit us as soon as we met, and in their words it seemed that the Axis Church was such a great and noble church that it would be a great pity not to join.

The madness hidden deep in his pupils, the relentless obsession with not stopping until he gets what he wants—no wonder he's called a calamity on par with the Demon King's army.

Kazuma Sato and the others were taken aback by the sudden invitation. They stiffened and waved their arms in resistance, but at the same time, they were unable to refuse because of the extreme enthusiasm of the group. They were completely overwhelmed by this group.

Only Aqua.

This genuine goddess of water thoroughly enjoys the boasting of the followers of Axis.

"Ah! What beautiful and shimmering aquamarine hair! Is it natural? I'm so envious! And that feather robe, it's the same style as the goddess's, it suits you so well!"

Aqua proudly puffed out her chest and raised her head.

She enjoys being praised and loves this part the most.

Kazuma Sato then whispered a warning to her not to say that she was the goddess of water or anything like that, otherwise they might be offended and driven out of town.

The silly goddess, however, said that she was not that silly.

On the other side, Kobayashi was turning away the girls who kept rushing towards him. After all, what was being stuffed into his hand wasn't their contact information, but rather an application to join the Axis cult. He felt just as melancholy as Kobayashi.

They praised him to the skies, saying he was the best in the world, but their real purpose was just to recruit him into their religion?

Having faced reality, Xiaolin ignored the sweet words whispered in her ear.

"Excuse me, but we already have a high priest of the Axis cult in our team, and we're here for sightseeing today. Could we please leave first?"

He gestured for the girls who had gathered around to look at the light blue, silly goddess.

The people who had gathered around understood, then waved with smiles and said, "Oh, I see! Goodbye, comrades, have a wonderful day!"

After saying that, they quickly left.

They must be off looking for their next target.

After escaping the encirclement, Sato Kazuma and the others subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief, except for the idiot Aqua who still seemed unsatisfied.

This guy……!

Kazuma Sato hardened his fist.

However, before they could even relax, they were met with frighteningly enthusiastic words from their side.

"Welcome to Alcanredia! Followers of the Axis Cult will share their personal experiences of recovering from illnesses, winning the lottery, and becoming even more talented! How about joining the cult and experiencing it for yourself?"

Sato Kazuma and the others trembled with fear.
