#299 - We clearly agreed to form a lifelong team
In the following days, they moved into the mansion.
Honestly, it wasn't much different from being in the royal palace, and they even went further because they didn't have to worry about offending the royal family.
They were either clamoring for high-end sparkling wine, or shouting for rare ingredients and maid service, or even releasing explosion magic outside the royal capital every day while showing off to others.
Darkness was overwhelmed with work, taking care of them every day.
Zun Zun was equally overwhelmed.
He had to deal with Barulta.
Actually, if Barulta really did something excessive, Zun Zun could ruthlessly give him a profound lesson.
However, this cheerful and handsome man never did anything annoying, and was even particularly considerate and had high emotional intelligence.
Whether it was dealing with the unreasonable Aqua and Kazuma Satou, or the inexplicably hostile Megumin and Yunyun, he could handle them all very well. He really had the demeanor of a British gentleman.
But he was too much of a British gentleman!
Zun Zun had also asked Kazuma Satou and the others for help, but these scumbags took it for granted and said, 'Hey, he's taking such good care of us, what's wrong with satisfying a little request of his?'... Don't these guys know that I'm the one being sacrificed!?
If that's the case, why not let Darkness sacrifice herself and satisfy Alderp's fetish!?
...No, wait.
That might be a reward for that perverted female knight, so never mind.
Unable to bear the noise of his companions, and even more unable to bear Barulta's entanglement, Zun Zun abandoned everyone and went to the streets for some fresh air. He hadn't had a good look around the royal capital in all these days.
Yunyun originally intended to invite him, but his shy and coy fiancée was forcibly taken away by Megumin with the demand that she not run away to unleash explosion magic.
Forget it.
It's not bad to stroll around by myself.
Although the royal capital was at the forefront of the battle against the Demon King's army, it was, after all, the center of the kingdom, and its bustling atmosphere far exceeded that of Axel, the beginner's village.
The adventurers he encountered on the street were all quite powerful, with levels almost all around 30, the type that wouldn't die easily on the front lines.
After asking a few stall owners, Zun Zun came to the materials market.
The variety of magic tool materials sold here allowed him to purchase a large quantity. During this time, he also bought some souvenirs for his friends in Axel.
On the way back, he saw a stall selling accessories.
The stall owner greeted Zun Zun, who had stopped to look, enthusiastically: "Customer, are you looking to buy accessories? I have the latest trends in the kingdom here. Whether you're an adventurer or a noble, they all like these. If you like them, feel free to take a look! Considering how pretty you are, I can give you a discount."
"...I'm a boy."
"50% off!"
Huh?
You're not right.
For some reason, the stall owner became even more excited.
But thinking about it carefully, Zun Zun hadn't bought anything for Yunyun and Megumin since leaving the village, and he had never bought things like accessories... Yunyun wouldn't wear it even if she received it, but would specially collect it; Megumin wanted food that she could eat more than accessories that she couldn't see.
In short, Zun Zun had never given them these things.
Just as he was about to choose accessories here, a somewhat surprised and delighted voice came from behind him.
"Zun Zun? Isn't that Zun Zun!?
Oh, he met the sunshine-type man number two, Mitsurugi Kyouya, whom he least wanted to meet.
"Blegh!"
"Zun Zun, why did you throw up! Are you okay? Are you feeling unwell!?
Zun Zun raised his hand to stop Mitsurugi Kyouya from approaching, and then wiped the corner of his mouth.
"It's nothing, it's just that I've ingested too much sunshine-type man component during this period, exceeding my threshold, so I had to throw up a little. Don't mind it."
"How can I not mind!"
Mitsurugi Kyouya couldn't accept it. It was as if Zun Zun couldn't help but throw up upon seeing him. He reluctantly let it go after repeated explanations.
He looked behind him.
He didn't see those two followers.
Mitsurugi Kyouya seemed to understand Zun Zun's confusion and took the initiative to explain: "My two companions, Cleymah and Fio, are currently leveling up in a neighboring country and are not in the royal capital. Zun Zun, you must have come to the front lines because of the Demon King's army's attacks. I knew you wouldn't be willing to stay in that remote little mountain village."
"No, I was forcibly dragged here by my companions."
"Come on, join my party and fight the Demon King... What did you say?"
"I said I was forcibly dragged here by my companions."
Alice was a member of the thief group, so it was no problem to say they were companions. It's just that his companions were giving him a difficult problem now, which was a bit of a headache.
"On the contrary, why are you in the royal capital, Mitsurugi?"
"Ah, because I heard that the Demon King's army has been constantly harassing the royal capital recently. In order to protect the general public, I came to the front lines."
Mitsurugi Kyouya said this with a slightly suave manner.
Although this guy was a bit chuuni, he was still kind-hearted and would help anyone in need, so this time would be no exception.
"Is that so? Then I wish you all the best."
"Eh, wait a minute, Zun Zun... !"
"Zun Zun! You're here!"
Just as Mitsurugi Kyouya was about to stop him, sunshine-type man number one appeared at the other end of the street, walking towards the two of them with a sunny smile.
"Blegh!"
"Zun Zun!??"
Unable to hold back, he threw up again.
Barulta first asked about Zun Zun's condition with concern, and then greeted Mitsurugi Kyouya.
"Who is this?"
"Hello, I am Mitsurugi Kyouya."
"Hello, I am Barulta, nice to meet you."
A little strange.
One was the adopted son of Lord Axel, and the other was the most popular adventurer in Axel. The two of them didn't know each other?
"Although I have heard of Lord Mitsurugi's achievements, I regret that I was not in Axel at the time."
"Precisely because of this, I have only heard of Lord Barulta's good reputation."
The two complimented each other.
Oh my, it looks like they'll get along well...
"Speaking of which, what are Zun Zun and Lord Mitsurugi doing here?"
"Call me Mitsurugi, or just Kyouya. As you can see, I am choosing accessories with Zun Zun."
"Choosing accessories!?? Is that so? Is that so, choosing accessories? Hmm, hmm, I didn't expect Zun Zun to be interested in these things. Sorry, I was negligent. Then I will buy suitable accessories here."
"No, no, no, let me do it."
The newest and most complete novels are at 69shuba.com!
"No, no, no, I'll do it."
The two argued over who would spend the money. This situation lasted for a long time, until it attracted the attention of many tourists around.
"Wait a minute, Lord Mitsurugi, let's not argue anymore."
"That's right, here is still..."
"Zun Zun, who do you want to buy it?" X2
Huh?
Turning their heads, the two did not see Zun Zun's figure. The stall owner tossed the coin in his hand and caught it, opening his mouth helplessly.
"That customer has already bought it and left."
Leaving the two staring at each other.
The female tourists around also began to discuss.
"Look, the two of them are arguing over who will spend the money. They must be hoping to give the other person accessories."
"Yes, yes, I think they should just give them to each other."
"Are those two in that kind of relationship?"
"Ah, ah, ah, what a waste!"
No matter which world it was, girls liked this kind of topic, and as the increasingly bold 'seme' and 'uke' terms entered their ears, Barulta and Mitsurugi Kyouya blushed at the same time and left in opposite directions.
-----
On the other side.
Zun Zun came to a coffee shop to rest.
One sunshine-type man was already giving him a headache, and two sunshine-type men would really take his life, so he decisively ran away.
"Zun Zun, you've really had it rough. Being entangled by those two guys must have been a lot of trouble, right?"
"Yeah... What? It's Chris. When did you come? Speaking of which, since you saw it, why didn't you help? Don't tell me you thought something fun would happen and deliberately hid aside to watch the show? That's terrible."
Zun Zun, who was lying on the table, lazily raised his head, saw Chris smiling, and replied a little dejectedly.
"Oh my, seeing me, Zun Zun, you don't seem surprised at all."
"Surprised about what? The well-known, high-quality sunshine-type man thief?"
Ugh!
Hearing Zun Zun say this, Chris's smile suddenly disappeared, and she lowered her head to look at her toes, even more aggrieved.
Zun Zun laughed instead.
The smile will not disappear, it will only be transferred.
"Let's not talk about this!" Chris opened her mouth very seriously: "Zun Zun, the organization needs you."
"..."
"Zun Zun?"
"You used to call me assistant little brother, but now you call me Zun Zun, you're really heartless and unrighteous."
The slightly affected tone and expression almost made Chris break down. She gave Zun Zun a hard punch with embarrassment.
"Can you not make trouble at this time?"
"I don't want to!"
Blocking her fist.
Zun Zun also pouted unhappily: "Because that's the truth, right, Chris? You didn't plan to look for me again, did you? We clearly agreed to form a thief group for life."
"That's... Zun Zun, aren't you very busy? Look, it's the City of Water, and then the Crimson Demon Village. You must have been exhausted after encountering the Demon King Army's executives one after another, so I didn't look for you."
