〜Delicious in Dungeon World〜
Laios looked at Vanir with some curiosity,
"What a pure-hearted demon… Although his ideals are a bit perverse, the methods to achieve them are quite simple and unadorned."
This couldn't even be described as simple and unadorned. Moreover, working for Wiz, a poor shop owner who could barely support herself, are you sure she can afford to pay him?
The dream of earning money to build his own dungeon might never be realized in this lifetime…
And Vanir's impression on him was completely different. He wasn't insidious or cunning, nor did he like to kill. He felt more like a mischievous, comical demon.
Chilchuck rolled his eyes,
"How is that pure-hearted? He's a devil who lives up to his title!"
"I don't want to work hard to run a dungeon just to get a useless ticket…"
Just thinking about the possibility of opening a treasure chest and finding such a prank made him shiver. The thought alone made him furious. It was truly devilish.
〜KonoSuba: God's Blessing on This Wonderful World〜
"Wiz, are you very familiar with Vanir?"
Looking at this perverse demon who could see through people's hearts, Kazuma, for the sake of his life, decided to gather as much information as possible.
"Hmm, I guess you could say we're pretty close in terms in friendship,"
Wiz pondered for a moment with a somewhat dazed expression, seemingly thinking about where to start.
"When I was still a human adventurer, I accidentally met Mr. Vanir once, and we had a few contests."
"Afterward, to save a companion cursed by Beldia, I sought Mr. Vanir's help and became a lich, then charged into the Demon King's Castle!"
CHARGED INTO THE DEMON KING'S CASTLE!!… Hearing this, Megumin's eyes gleamed with envy. The shop owner had actually fought her way to the Demon King. As expected of her lifelong rival.
Looking at Wiz, who was still smiling gently, Kazuma was speechless. This was a true master, not to be trifled with… Speaking of which, what kind of terrible beginner's village was this? It felt like the hero was somewhat redundant.
.....
[ The mask was placed on Darkness's face, beginning to invade her body. Then, the hand holding the sword naturally drooped, and she stood still with her head bowed.
Vanir's voice came from Darkness: "Your disgust is delicious! Hehehe haha."
"Brat, listen up, under my power (What should I do, Kazuma! My body is being invaded.)."
"How about it, brat! If you can attack this girl… (It's perfectly fine, don't hold back, attack me!)
The exasperated Vanir cursed, "Shut up, WHAT'S WRONG WITH YOU!!"
Vanir didn't expect that the knight he possessed was not only physically tough but also incredibly strong-willed, thus leading to this split personality.
"How is this possible! What's wrong with this (beautiful) girl!… How tenacious is her spirit… (I am the model crusader), Shut up!"
"This girl is more amazing than I thought!… (Not at all.) But, the more you resist, the more unbearable pain you will ultimately experience (What?!)."
"Alright, how long can you endure it?" As soon as he finished speaking, Vanir froze, because he felt a sense of joy from Darkness?!"
Kazuma, seeing Darkness's split personality, was truly impressed and simply chose to ignore it. He calmly went indoors and began to erase the magic circle. ]
[ .....]
〜Projection of All Worlds〜
"Hahaha, I even have reason to suspect Darkness deliberately didn't dodge, and even managed to insert her own personal preferences."
"A large-scale split personality scene. I'd advise Vanir to take off that mask soon. I feel like he's going to be mentally polluted by a pervert."
"You dare possess someone with a mental disorder! The more you resist, the more pain you feel? Isn't that just hitting Darkness's perverse right on the head? A perfect match!"
Kazuma, needless to say, completely ignored the split-personality pervert and even calmly went to erase the magic circle, incredibly composed!
Wait… everyone seemed to have discovered a crucial point. Since Vanir feeds on human disgust, then the pleasure he felt from Darkness, wouldn't that BE…!!
.....
[ Kazuma silently erased the magic circle, listening to Darkness's one-person double act. But by the time he finished, the two were still babbling!
Kazuma walked towards Darkness, but she pointed her greatsword at him: "You wouldn't want to harm this girl you love, would you? If this girl keeps enduring my power (Ka…Kazuma, this demon who claims to see through everything said something I care about!) Shut UP!!"
Looking at the two still in their split personality, Kazuma was truly speechless. Even Vanir couldn't stand Darkness anymore and wanted to leave her body.
Kazuma somewhat disdainfully stuck a talisman on her: "The Seal Talisman given by the prosecutor. Let's return to the surface like this and have Aqua purify him!"
Along the way, Vanir continued to babble to Kazuma: "This girl's body is resisting my control and feeling immense pain! If this continues, her mind will collapse!"
"(That's right, Kazuma! This is the first time I've felt such a strong sensation. As expected of a Demon King's Army executive!)"
Kazuma didn't have time to deal with Darkness's perversion now, feeling a little uneasy: "Hang in there! We're at the surface, you'll be free soon!"
"(No need to bother…)"
Kazuma, still running, paused: "Huh, what did you just say?" ]
[ .....]
〜Projection of All Worlds〜
"Good heavens, Darkness, that pervert actually managed to force a demon to the point of wanting to escape her body. A god-like masochistic constitution."
"This is bad. According to the previous pattern of Demon King's Army executives appearing, Vanir might be finished!"
Vanir really hit the jackpot. Darkness is practically a natural nemesis. Even an S-rank like him is no match for her.
She even enjoys this incomprehensible pleasure. The more pain she feels, the more exhilarated she becomes. It's supposed to be a tense atmosphere, but there's absolutely no sense of urgency!
.....
[ Just like that, the two successfully escaped to the exit, but then Darkness suddenly lost consciousness. Vanir had now completely controlled her body!
"Hahaha, control complete!" She frantically ran towards the exit, planning to ambush Aqua with her companion's body while Aqua was off guard.
"My hateful nemesis! How will she react when faced with her possessed companion?"
Vanir shouted and leaped onto the surface, only to be met by Aqua's holy purification magic: "SACRED EXORCISM—!"
"AHHH!!" A dazzling white light instantly enveloped Darkness's body, and she knelt powerlessly on the ground.
"Hey, Darkness!" Kazuma looked worriedly at Darkness, who was kneeling on the ground, then pointed at Aqua: "Hey, don't suddenly cast magic!"
Aqua looked somewhat innocent: "I felt an evil presence, so I released it when it rushed over!" ]
[ .....]
〜Projection of All Worlds〜
"Tsk tsk… Poor Vanir, he's been dumbed down after only possessing her for a while. Didn't he consider that just as he could sense Aqua's presence, she could also sense his!"
"Hahaha, so Aqua is still quite reliable when it comes to serious matters. Is this a happy accident?"
Vanir's words revealed that he was no ordinary being. He knew Aqua's identity and even considered her a nemesis.
However, for some reason, everyone felt that the Demon King's Army executives would suddenly become comical whenever they encountered Kazuma's party. They had never seen a single executive die a dignified death.
.....
[ Knowing that the other party was a demon, Aqua somewhat disgustedly covered her mouth: "It stinks, what is this… It's the smell of a demon, Darkness, don't come near!"
Although this didn't immediately send Vanir to the afterlife, it at least awakened Darkness's consciousness. She stood up and performed a double act for everyone!
"O hateful and notorious priestess with the same name as the Goddess of Water, my name is (Aqua, I shouldn't smell that bad)… My name is Bani (Kazuma, you smell too; it shouldn't stink). SHUT UP!!"
Watching Darkness's one-person double act almost made Aqua die laughing, then she unexpectedly shot another Holy Ray!
Seeing her magic being dodged, Aqua said, "Hey, Darkness, why are you dodging? Stand still!"
Upon seeing this, the prosecutor immediately ordered the adventurers to besiege him, but now it was a pervert plus a pervert in a Kamen Rider suit, with both strength and defense! They were no match at all.
Seeing Aqua about to fall into crisis, Kazuma still rushed over and easily awakened Darkness's will with just a few words!
Then he pretended to use Steal to trick Vanir's mind-reading ability, used fire magic to burn off the seal on her head, and Darkness successfully regained control of her body.
Even so, the mask still couldn't be removed, and Aqua's evolution magic did not affect Darkness, who had maxed out her defense.
"Use Explosion magic on me now."
Now, all hope could only be placed on Megumin, but Megumin's Explosion magic had been upgraded several times, and Darkness might not be able to withstand its power.
Darkness slowly walked towards an open space in the distance: "Although it was a short time, it wasn't bad being with you (I never expected my desire for destruction to be realized in this form! For me, possessing you was quite enjoyable.)."
As Megumin unleashed a powerful Explosion magic, a huge mushroom cloud appeared in the sky!
In the enormous crater, Darkness's armor was shattered to a near-death state, but fortunately, the mask was successfully broken!
Under Aqua's healing, she recovered the next day completely, and Kazuma also successfully cleared his name for defeating a Demon King's Army executive.
And the bounty not only offset all his debts but also earned him an additional 40 million prize money! ]
[ .....]
〜Projection of All Worlds〜
"Why did you dodge? How could Aqua even ask that question… Do you think everyone's intelligence is on par with yours?"
"Good heavens, you two reached a consensus with a Demon King's Army executive, exchanging notes on your respective conditions…"
My goodness… Darkness, despite being a pervert, has ridiculously high defense and HP. She took a direct hit from a nuclear bomb and wasn't blown to smithereens.
The battle between a mage who put all her skill points into Explosion magic and a crusader who put all her points into defense. Clearly, Megumin lost because she wasn't perverse enough.
What's even more unexpected is that a hero who hadn't even left the beginner's village accidentally dealt with three Demon King's executives. No one would believe it if you told them.
.....
〜Type-Moon World, Fifth Holy Grail War Worldline〜
Watching Kazuma go from being burdened by national debt to a multi-millionaire, Tohsaka Rin's eyes turned into money symbols:
"What a valuable EXECUTIVE!!"
She never expected a Demon King's executive to be so valuable, estimated at around 1.3 billion. Kazuma was rich now. One second, he was worrying about food; the next, he was a true nouveau riche.
Looking at the mushroom cloud that lit up the sky, Emiya Shirou couldn't help but exclaim,
"Megumin's Explosion magic has grown much stronger in range and power!"
It's just… when are their party going to fight the Demon King? They've already dealt with several Demon King's Army executives, but they haven't even left the beginner's village.
And with Kazuma's party's setup, they should have the strength to contend with the Demon King's Army by now.
〜Cautious Hero: The Hero Is Overpowered but Overly Cautious World〜
"Th-three of them!"
Ristarte secretly counted on her fingers, realizing that nearly half of the Demon King's minions were gone.
And this was achieved by Kazuma accidentally, while he was constantly busy with his daily meals. If he were to specifically target the Demon King in his adventures, wouldn't he be able to speedrun it?
Could it be that defeating the Demon King is truly the condition for leaving the beginner's village…?
Ristarte shook her head, dismissing her unrealistic thoughts. Before, it was just because he was poor and had no equipment, and due to debts and other reasons! That he was forced to stay in the beginner's village.
But now Kazuma has no debt worries and no longer needs to worry about money. She believes he will soon embark on the journey to defeat the Demon King.
