I don't want to be a heroic spirit

"Hmm! Probably not." Nero shook his head and said, "Because we are just 'first-level rookie adventurers', it is highly unlikely that we can accept such a difficult commission. Let's choose something else first."

"Oh, I'll listen to my sister."

Alice said this very obediently.

Finally, Nero chose a commission to defeat a giant frog.

Because Nero was a little curious about how strong these monsters that could wipe out the Kazuma team again and again, even the cadres of the Demon King's Army, were.

Chapter 252 Defeat the Giant Frog

"Alice, you have been holding your adventurer card and looking at it for a long time. Do you like being an adventurer so much?"

Because Alice has been holding her card in both hands and looking at it left and right and even holding it under the sun since she came out of the Adventurer's Guild, Nero asked this question.

"Yes... yes! Not only did you come out of the castle, but you also registered as an adventurer in the Adventurer's Guild! I will surely find a partner who can entrust his life to you like an adventurer in the future, fight powerful monsters together, camp around a campfire in the dark night, and travel to a city you have never been to... What should I do, sister! I am so looking forward to it! I really want to start the adventure right away!"

"Hmm! I know you are full of energy now!"

Compared to her obedient and well-behaved in the castle, Alice is now much more energetic, and her behavior now is what she should be like at her age.

Because they are going to fight a giant frog, Alice and Nero are walking out of the city.

At this moment, a very noisy sound caught Nero's attention.

"What the hell! Isn't this a different world? Why did I finally come to a different world that many people dream of, and still have to do such realistic and sad things as moving bricks and building walls!!"

"What are you talking about, you cocooning NEET? You can't live without working. Isn't this common sense in all worlds? Okay, stop complaining, and keep working. If you are found to be lazy, be careful of being deducted from your salary."

"I don't want to listen to your condescending talk about common sense! I'm here to defeat the devil, not to move bricks!"

Nero turned his head curiously, and then saw a man and a woman arguing near a low wall from a distance.

"What's wrong, sister? What's wrong with those two people?"

"No, nothing... Let's keep going. I heard that the giant frog is quite popular as a food. Although the level is not high, it seems to be surprisingly delicious when fried. It can be sold to the Adventurer Association for extra rewards."

This giant frog can be regarded as a specialty of this world in a sense.

Because of their amazing record of annihilating the protagonist group again and again, their status has been raised to a very scary level.

Because they were swallowed by giant frogs too many times, Huihui found that they could keep warm in the stomach of giant frogs in winter, and they also studied how long it would take to be swallowed by giant frogs to be considered safe.

There seem to be quite a lot of giant frogs at this time. It is said that it is because of the breeding season, they need to replenish their energy for laying eggs, so they will appear in human tribes with more food and swallow the goats raised by farmers in one bite.

Although these giant frogs look cute inexplicably, they are dangerous monsters. Their huge bodies comparable to elephants allow them to easily swallow an adult. Every year during the breeding season of these giant frogs, there will be news of people going missing.

"Extelion!"

Accompanied by Alice's angry shout, a brilliant sword light instantly cut a giant frog in half.

Nero and his team received a commission to defeat five giant frogs within three days. However, at this moment, there are nearly ten giant frog corpses around Alice.

In fact, if there were no giant frogs around, Alice's record might be even more brilliant.

Alice performed the powerful golden slash ten times without blushing or panting.

Looking back at Nero, Alice smiled sweetly.

"Sister! Sister! I succeeded in defeating the fierce monster! How was it? Did I fight well?"

Holding the long sword, Alice trotted to Nero, her smile brightening with anticipation.

"Hmm! Very strong! As expected of Alice."

As he spoke, Nero reached out and rubbed Alice's little head, and Alice squinted her eyes and showed a cute expression like a kitten, enjoying it very much. Not only did she not resist, but she also rubbed Nero's palm with her little head.

At this moment, a violent explosion suddenly occurred in the forest in the distance, and a mushroom cloud rose from the ground, mixed with red flames.

"That power... could it be explosion magic?"

Alice looked at the mushroom cloud in the distance in surprise, and said slowly: "Why would explosion magic appear in such a place? Could it be... the Demon King's Army?"

"There is no reason for the Demon King's Army to come to the Novice Town? There is nothing to gain here."

"That's right... that's right. 乭"

Nero glanced in the direction of the explosion, and his eyes suddenly became as sharp as a hawk.

"Hmm... the one who used explosion magic seems to be a girl with red eyes. She should be a red demon?"

"Red demon? It is indeed possible that they can use explosion magic..."

The Red Devils are a strange race in this world. They have the second disease per capita, and they have great magicians per capita.

Their characteristics are also very obvious, such as their names sound strange, their eyes are blood red and glow when they are excited, etc.

The explosion magic mentioned by Nero and Alice is known as the most powerful offensive magic. Even the most advanced demons and gods cannot survive the explosion magic without any problems.

Although it has terrifying power that can even hurt gods, the shortcomings of this magic are also obvious. First of all, it is the range, which can easily hurt the user and teammates, and then it is the amount of mana consumed. Even for a great magic with outstanding magic power, As a master, you can barely use explosion magic once a day, and then you will lose the ability to move because the blue bar is empty.

Because of the above shortcomings, explosion magic is regarded as a funny magic by many people.

Alice squinted her eyes and looked towards the place where the explosion magic appeared before. The mushroom cloud there was still rising.

"elder sister."

"Um?"

"Sister, how did you... see it?"

Alice tried to look over there, but she could see nothing but a mushroom cloud of firelight and a large forest.

"Not only can you see people near the explosion, but you can even see the color of their eyes... Do you think you have clairvoyance skills, sister?"

"This is the emperor's privilege! Because I am the emperor!"

"Well...sister said something like this again."

Alice pouted dissatisfiedly, as if she felt that Nero was prevaricating her, but she quickly laughed again.

"However, my sister is very powerful, I have always known this... and she is also super handsome."

After that, Nero and Alice planned to return to the Adventurer's Guild. After all, the commission had been completed.

The commission said that five giant frogs were defeated in three days. In the original work, the male protagonist Kazuma made a lot of sacrifices to deal with the giant frogs. Because the giant frogs can only swallow one person at a time, his teammates were eaten by the giant frogs. , and then take action himself to deal with his teammates before they are digested by the giant frog.

Therefore, it can be said that once the number of giant frogs that appear is greater than or equal to the number of Kazuma and his team, they will most likely be wiped out.

However, Alice single-handedly defeated twice as many giant frogs as the ones commissioned, killing them all with one hit.

Sure enough, Alice is very powerful.

Obviously the required time for the commission was three days, but Nero and Alice only spent less than an hour, and most of the time spent was spent on the road. They basically didn't spend much time dealing with the giant frog.

Chapter 253 Go to the field behind to catch two saury and come back (27/31)

"Yes, I have received the proof that you completed the commission. Come, please take your adventurer cards. These are the rewards for completing the commission, and this is the reward for recovering the giant frog carcass, because the flesh and blood are preserved. It’s very complete, so the reward should be higher.”

"Thanks!"

The joy in Alice's heart was beyond words, and the heavy purse in her hand made her feel very accomplished.

"Sister! Sister! Look! This is the commission fee I earned! I earned it through my own efforts!"

"Hmm! Yu saw it with these eyes! Well done Elise! Touch your head..."

"whee!"

When facing Alice, Nero always thought of Jasmine... so touching his head became a subconscious action.

However, Alice seems to be extremely useful.

"In this way, not only will we get back all the money we spent when registering as an adventurer, but also the extra... we will be able to support ourselves!"

Alice brought a lot of money with her when she went out, but she seemed to prefer to live on the money she earned, which gave her a greater sense of accomplishment.

It's as if it proves that "even if I don't rely on my status as a princess and everyone's favor, I can live a good life."

"Then, let's use the money to find a hotel to stay in... Let's also settle it in the guild for dinner. I heard the lady at the counter said that the giant frog meat we hunted will be used to make dishes tonight. After all, it's your place. The result of one day’s hard work, you can come over and taste it.”

"Uh-huh!"

Alice's blue eyes, as clear as the sky, were shining brightly, and she seemed to be looking forward to the evening's dishes.

Afterwards, the two found a hotel.

Although Nero and Alice were two people, one was the Emperor and the other was the Princess, they were not that picky or spoiled. They could stay in even an ordinary hotel, and Alice even enjoyed it a little.

"It's amazing! There are so many rooms on one floor! Are the floors and beds made of wood? From the windows in the room, you can directly see the pedestrians and vendors on the street..."

A bed, a window, a wooden table and chairs in front of the window, that's all this room has.

It seems a bit crude.

"Then, before Claire and the others find us, we will live here."

Nero stood at the door, watching Alice take off her shoes and jump on the bed as soon as she entered the room.

"So, this is my and Sister Nero's secret base, right?"

Sitting on the bed like a duck, Alice hugged the pillow tightly with her hands and looked at Nero, her cheeks still red with joy.

"Two people spending the night in a small room like this...it feels more and more like adventurers."

In fact, Nero originally planned to buy two rooms, since he didn't need that little money anyway.

However, when Alice learned of Nero's plan, she grabbed Nero's hand and said.

"I... I want to live in the same room with my sister."

Alice stared at Nero with a hint of pleading in her blue eyes, which were like a lake.

"No... Can't I?"

Anyone with a little conscience couldn't refuse Alice with that expression, right?

After choosing a room, the two planned to go to the Adventurer's Guild.

Not to choose a commission, but to have dinner, after all, it was almost dark.

When seeing Alice go to get the robe, Nero suddenly said as if he remembered something: "You don't need to get the robe, just go."

"Huh? Really?" Alice said worriedly: "Will nothing happen?"

"No, this is the border of the kingdom, and few people have seen the high and mighty princess."

"Really, there is no such thing as high and mighty... Sister Nero is making fun of me again."

"The only people who can recognize you are probably the lords and other nobles here, but they generally don't go to the Adventurer's Guild in person because they regard adventurers as vulgar people. So, at least in the Adventurer's Guild, Alice should not worry about being exposed. Those people should not have thought that the princess would actually become an adventurer, right?"

"Then... just listen to Sister Nero."

Under the night sky, the stars are shining, and walking on the small road paved with stone slabs of different sizes, there is occasionally a nice aroma on the street.

The one next to it should be a restaurant or something like that? Nero can hear the noise inside.

"Hey! New here, you don't know about saury, do you? What kind of life did you live before?"

"No! No! Of course I know about saury! Saury is a fish, right? You want to make the salt-grilled saury set meal on the menu, right?"

"Yes, that saury, it's a fish, it's a fish, it's a fish, it has scales on its body that jump around, and it's especially plump and delicious in this season."

"I know, I know this very well, so, excuse me, can you please tell me what I should do again?"

"Go to the field behind and catch two saury."

"You look down on me! What is this? Is it power harassment? Don't think you can bully me like this just because I came to this town, bastard! Do you feel happy asking me to do something inexplicable and then watching me at a loss?!"

Saury... can it be caught in the field?

Although Nero didn't have much contact with fish... but she seemed to have the impression that saury was a sea fish, right?

However, this is a different world after all, and there are even asparagus that will grab the knife and fork to fight back, so it doesn’t seem too outrageous that a saury suddenly appears in the field?

“Hey, Alice, can you catch saury in the field?”

“Huh? Why do you suddenly ask this… There shouldn’t be any? Fish that can be caught in the field…”

Hmm… Even Alice doesn’t know, so it seems that the person just now was indeed harassed by his position.

How pitiful.

After finding a seat in the Adventurer’s Guild, Nero and Alice began to enjoy today’s dinner.
