I like traveling the most

After exclaiming, several members of the team quickly apologized to the disturbed adventurers. After nodding and bowing, they all looked straight at the noble daughter who had just revealed her identity and remained silent.

The atmosphere became slightly heavier.

Darkness twisted around unconsciously and said rather eagerly: "What, what's wrong? Why are you looking at me like this? Is there anything wrong with my dress?"

She lowered her head and looked around.

Wearing casual clothes, she fully revealed her perfect figure hidden under the thick armor, which was slightly alluring.

This was known from the adventurers who quietly glanced at her.

But this time it's positive.

Exuding charm and full of femininity, Darkness is indeed eye-catching.

As his eyes continued to glance at the skin, the perverted knight shook his body and leaned close to Xiaolin's arm holding him, with confusion and excitement in his eyes.

Xiao Lin smiled and said nothing, making no explanation.

Instead, it was Sato Kazuma who spoke first: "We are looking at the noble daughter and eldest daughter, because we have never seen her before."

"Varied……!"

Darkness was furious, always feeling like he was hinting at something.

Aqua cheered and said excitedly: "A noble, a noble! And a great noble! Money, countless money! I want to be a loser, I want to be a squatter!"

This guy doesn't look like a goddess at all.

Sato Kazuma curled his lips and said, "Have you forgotten that Darkness is a devout Cross Knight of the Eris Cult?"

"Ah! I forgot! Damn Eris, you are trying to steal followers from me!"

Aqua held her head and yelled, her resentment towards her juniors deepening in her heart.

As a senior, except for being stronger than the opponent in making unreasonable troubles, he is weaker than the opponent in other aspects. In the eyes of Sato Kazuma, this is a very useless thing.

"I didn't expect you, Darkness, to be the daughter of a noble family." Megumin said, holding her wand. After learning the truth, she became the calmest one in the team.

"Huihui..."

Darkness was a little moved.

After all, she is not someone who is deliberately showing off in front of others. The more calm and easy-going her companions are, the more she can feel at ease.

Sato Kazuma encouraged: "You are the one, Darkness."

"...Eh?" Darkness was slightly stunned.

"Even if you are the daughter of a noble family, you are still our companion and a member of the team. It has nothing to do with your status, right?"

"Kazuma..."

Kazuma Sato is particularly sensitive in this regard.

Although he is a scumbag, a devil, nasty, and shameless, he is a good boy. After experiencing a lot of two-dimensional baptism, he immediately understood what Darkness was concerned about.

"But I didn't expect the eldest lady's name to be quite cute. Right, Miss Lalatina?" Sato Kazuma snorted softly.

"K-Kazuma?!"

Darkness liked humiliation, but if there was any level of shame that was unacceptable, it was being called by her real name.

"It doesn't matter! As long as you leave the Eris Cult now and join the Axis Cult, you can be forgiven no matter what."

Aqua patted Darkness on the shoulder and preached happily.

It's just that she forgot that the Axis Cult is as terrifying as the Demon King's Army, and Darkness will never join it.

Unexpectedly, Aqua added at the end: "If you don't join, I'll call you Latina."

"What... despicable villain!"

Darkness couldn't hold herself any longer. This threat of stabbing into her pain point like a needle could only be said to be very Aqua's style.

At this time, the excited daughter was tapped on the shoulder.

Turning around, he saw a certain little loli standing on tiptoes, her face raised with strong relief.

"Huihui..."

"The name sounds very nice, Lalatina."

"Megumin?!"

Don't get me wrong, Megumin is really comforting.

The names of the Crimson Demons seemed ordinary to them, but to outsiders they looked like pure weirdos. When they first reported their names, they were teased by Sato Kazuma. Therefore, although the name "Lalatina" is a bit cute and does not suit Darkness, at least it is normal.

"Okay, okay, stop bullying Darkness, we are companions."

Xiao Lin jumped out and pretended to be a good guy.

Darkness didn't buy it when she pretended to be a good person at this time. Although she had a personality problem, it didn't mean that she was an idiot. The reason why she was teased by her companions was because Xiaolin forced her to reveal her true identity.

He puffed his mouth and stared at him angrily.

Xiao Lin chuckled lightly, tapped her mouth to let go, and said, "Don't be angry. Your identity has not created a barrier between us. You are still our Cross Knight."

This was an explanation to her, and to the rest of the team.

"As you can see, Darkness is the daughter of the great noble who manages this area, and because she is a Cross Knight, she stayed at that time, and is still at the forefront of willful resistance against the Destroyer."

Xiaolin explained the reason clearly.

Darkness also bowed and apologized sincerely: "I'm sorry! Because of my willfulness, everyone got into trouble. I'm really sorry!"

"…Hmm."

The team looked at each other.

Megumin, who had the best relationship with her, said first: "Please raise your head, Darkness, this is not your fault."

"Yes, yes, this is your duty. Rather, you might be praised for doing this." Aqua's cheerful voice came.

Sato Kazuma also echoed: "Although the process is a bit tortuous, the result is good, isn't it? After all, we got a large bounty for this."

"That's right!" Aqua immediately spoke.

This is what she just meant, and by the way, she will be praised by everyone. She likes this kind of session the best.

"Everyone……"

Darkness was deeply moved when she saw everyone giving her a thumbs up and laughing.

She longed for friends, and in addition to Chris, she finally gained a new friend, who was also the most reliable companion.

The barriers were resolved, and the atmosphere merged into the noisy guild, gradually reaching its peak.

Coincidentally, the awarding of bounties has also come to the last stage.

"Mr. Xiaolin!"

In the aisle where everyone was separated, Miss Luna, the guild receptionist, walked from the center under everyone's encouraging and praising gaze.

She was holding a wooden tray in both hands, with nothing else on it except a thin piece of paper.

However, no one takes small pieces of paper lightly.

Because the amount written above, if converted into gold coins, would probably fill the entire Adventurer's Guild!

In such a grand situation, the hearts of everyone in the team gradually accelerated.

"Ahem."

Xiao Lin coughed lightly.

The several problem children in the team all looked embarrassed with their eyes shining and drooling. Except for Darkness, the noble daughter and eldest daughter, each of the others was more miserable than the last.

The others laughed, but it was full of good intentions.

"Mr. Xiaolin."

"yes."

"On behalf of the guild and the villagers of Axel Novice Village, I would like to thank you for your dedication to Axel Novice Village and thank you for saving everyone."

"I said it is everyone's credit."

"…if you insist."

Luna's expression was a little strange.

It's just that Xiao Lin didn't see it, or he saw it and subconsciously ignored it.

After raising the tray in her hand, Aqua ran over happily, pushed past Xiaolin and picked up the piece of paper.

She is very diligent in this regard.

Xiao Lin smiled helplessly and let her go about her mischief.

→

Aqua looked at the piece of paper and suddenly shouted: "8900W Eris?!"

Um?

This number is a bit low.

Xiao Lin frowned imperceptibly.

The Mobile Fortress Destroyer is a mobile natural disaster that has destroyed many villages and kingdoms. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is a neutral cadre of the Demon King's army. And the bounty given by such an equal being is only 8900W Eris, which is too little.

"Senior Xiaolin..."

"Ah, I know."

It seems that Sato Kazuma has the same idea.

Darkness was also puzzled: "Even if we give out a part, it shouldn't be so little."

"There must be other rewards." Megumin looked expectantly at Miss Luna, the guild employee, but all she got was an awkward yet polite smile.

It seems there is no other reward.

Seeing that everyone was not very interested, Xiao Lin took the initiative to explain to everyone: "It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter. 89 million Eris is quite a lot. This money is enough for a five-person team to live happily in the countryside for a lifetime, so what is there to be dissatisfied about."

"That's right, be content with what you have." Sato Kazuma followed closely, trying to make everyone happy.

However--

For some reason, Aqua hesitated: "Everyone, no...it's not the same as you think..."

"What?"

"I don't know what to say specifically, so you should see for yourself."

She closed her eyes and stuffed the paper back.

Sato Kazuma glared at her unhappily and lectured: "What's going on? It's so mysterious... Look, it's not 8900W Eris... What?! Is it a debt?!"

"Wait a minute, Kazuma, what does arrears mean?"

Huihui was the first to react. When she heard the word debt, she reacted keenly.

"It says that we owe 89 million Eris."

Kazuma Sato turned the paper over.

There was a number on the piece of paper similar to the check, and there was a negative symbol in front of the number, which meant that they did not receive the bounty, but instead owed money.

Kazuma: "This is..."

Megumin: "What's going on?"

Aqua: "Why is there a debt?"

Darkness: "And it's still such a high amount."

"Explain it to us quickly!" X4

Several members of the team gathered around Miss Luna, the guild employee, and surrounded her heavily. The murderous and threatening look in their eyes made this weak and innocent woman tremble.

Snap——

Xiaolin clapped his hands to stop the atrocities that seemed to strip Luna naked: "Wait, everyone, don't be so impatient. Miss Luna will definitely give a reasonable explanation, right?"

He was smiling, and the atmosphere around him was peaceful, not angry at all.

But the bulging veins on his forehead and the wrinkled debt note all showed that Xiao Lin was on the verge of breaking out.

"That... I'm very sorry!"

Miss Luna, the guild employee, bowed deeply.

The rabbit, which exposed a large area of ​​fair skin and was extremely elastic and jumping up and down, could not appease Xiao Lin's anger at this time, let alone make up for his losses.

"actually……"

In Luna's embarrassed and angry tone, Xiaolin and others learned the whole story.

The kingdom did send a large bounty, and this is how the bounties received by other adventurers in the guild came from. Xiaolin, who was originally the main force, or the hero who stopped the Destroyer alone, also received a large bounty.

But all the money was withheld by the lord.

"Withheld?! Why, why?!"

Aqua couldn't accept it at first.

She grabbed Luna's collar and shook her thin body desperately, and the plumpness on Luna's chest also rippled with the waves.

The implicated guild employee explained intermittently: "Yes, I'm sorry... Because the lord said that he wanted to compensate for the damage, Aqua-sama should also know that there is still a part of the destroyed plain. The redevelopment of towns.”

"Plains and some towns..."

Xiao Lin was silent.

At that time, after being resurrected by Aqua, what he saw was the desolate plains and towns, so it was natural to ask for compensation.

...What a fart!

He was the hero who saved the town and was the biggest contributor to Axel's avoidance of destruction. How could he possibly make sense in not paying the bounty but still asking him to pay for it? !

I just feel very frustrated.

There is a sense of frustration that "I killed the Headless Horseman, but I had to pay compensation because I summoned a lot of water to destroy the city wall."

"But the compensation shouldn't be that much!" Aqua shouted again: "The plains don't matter, but didn't Wiz open the protective shield at that time? Even if some houses were affected, only part of them were not affected. ”

"That's right! The Destroyer has a bounty of hundreds of millions, which is enough to compensate him!" Sato Kazuma came to his senses and joined in the condemnation.

But Luna was even more ashamed.

"I'm sorry. It was enough originally. Even the town's compensation will be paid by the kingdom, and your bounty will have some balance. But the Lord..."

She lowered her voice slightly, as if she felt it was not good to speak ill of the lord in public.

Xiao Lin and others understood.

That greedy lord used the topic again.

And the most important thing is that the compensation was already enough, but he wanted more.

Sato Kazuma couldn't bear it anymore. He yelled: "It's too arrogant! The kingdom has already offered compensation, why do you have to charge extra money? Hey, Darkness! Aren't you the daughter of a famous noble family in the kingdom? Come and think of a solution!"

"Yes, Darkness, you should be able to punish that hateful lord! Please, if this continues, I won't have money to buy bubble wine!" Aqua also asked Darkness for help.

Darkness hesitated: "Even so, I can't use my status... Besides, I'm just the daughter of a noble family. At best, I have the title of knight now, and I haven't inherited the Dustiness family yet..."

"No, there's no need to do that."

"Senior Xiaolin?!"

Xiao Lin's words caused other people to have different reactions.

He waved his hand and said: "Don't worry, Sato-kun. I'm not saying to swallow your anger, but to collect evidence secretly without alerting the snake. As for this matter... Darkness, can you please let Dustinis Will the head of the family report it to the kingdom?”

"Of course. I think the kingdom will also take this matter seriously." Darkness seemed to think too simply.

Pay attention to?

If we paid attention to him, we wouldn't let him go on like this.

Xiao Lin will not place his hopes on others.

Reporting to the Kingdom is not the purpose, it is just to attract attention.

In fact, it is possible to encounter greed among lords. Almost every lord will be like this, it just depends on the degree of greed. As long as there is no rebellion, the kingdom will only turn a blind eye.

However, there is one thing that the Kingdom will never tolerate!

That means colluding with the Demon King’s Army!

If tangible evidence is found, even the Grand Duke will be hanged!

Axel's lord, Aldap, is also colluding with the Demon King's army.

What, you said no?

No, he does!

Even if he doesn't have it now, Xiaolin will let him have it, and there are many ways!

No matter what happens, Wiz can be asked to bring something back to the Demon King's City and throw it into the basement of Aldap's house to confirm the fact that he colluded with the Demon King's army.

Dare you extort my money?

court death!

Xiaolin had already begun to think about how to kill the greedy lord, and a very evil smile appeared on his lips, making Sato and Shinji tremble in fear.
