I like traveling the most

I will definitely save this world, because I made an appointment with the goddess that day.

Yes, that was the goddess I met in the black room on the day of reincarnation...

"Come on, embark on a journey with the magic sword Gram, the chosen hero, may you welcome a new future in the other world."

"Goddess, I will definitely defeat the devil and save the world!!"

"Okay, I am looking forward to it."

Since that day, I have been working hard for the goddess until today. Everything I do is for the goddess, but why... why is the goddess with that guy!

I angrily caught up with the man who was wandering around and doing nothing in front of me, and shouted at him with all my strength.

"Finally found you, Sato Kazuma!"

"Um... Sorry, who are you?"

"It's me! Yuken Hibiki!!!"

"So there is such a person... Sorry, I accidentally forgot."

The man who was called turned his head and looked at him with a blank look in his eyes, as if he didn't know him, as if he was not faking it.

This made him even angrier.

What a joke! After all, he is also a top adventurer in the kingdom rankings, and a rising star in Axel that has attracted much attention. More importantly... his magic sword was once stolen and sold by the other party. After such an experience of humiliating himself, he actually forgot it now?

I always feel a nameless anger in my heart.

Sato Kazuma scratched his head, not understanding why the man in front of him was so angry. After all, everyone forgets someone sometimes.

"What's the matter, Yuken?"

"It's Yuken! You made a mistake right after just reporting the name. You are still as rude as ever!"

Is it intentional?

This guy deliberately called him by the wrong name, and teased him with a nickname like Foolish Sword.

Mitsurugi Hibiki crossed his arms and said provocatively, "You sold my magic sword Gram before, and I tasted humiliation... I want to fight you again, and decide the winner with me!"

"Eh--It's troublesome, I don't want it."

Sato Kazuma stretched out his tone in disgust.

He was exhausted from taking care of the problem children in the team, so he wanted to avoid such insignificant and meaningless wins and losses as much as possible.

However, Mitsurugi Hibiki seemed to have misunderstood.

"Hmph, don't worry, I won't say that if I win, I will give the goddess to me. This is about my dignity! If you win, I promise not to ask you to fight me again! On the contrary, if I win, I will ask you to apologize to me for what happened so far, and admit that I am the real hero candidate!"

He thought that the reason why Sato Kazuma didn't dare to compete was because he was afraid of losing Aqua.

But it was totally wrong! If he could get rid of the trouble of the stupid goddess, Sato Kazuma would definitely get rid of it without saying a word!

"Don't make a decision on your own. Why should I compete with you..." Sato Kazuma looked dead and was about to refuse, but suddenly his eyes turned and he thought of something.

Wait a minute, that's not right.

If you can make good use of this...

Then he changed the subject, raised the corners of his mouth and said with a slightly provocative tone: "Okay, you asked me to be your opponent, I agreed. But if you humiliate yourself again, I don't care."

"Since you dare to talk big, does it mean that you agree to accept my challenge?"

"Of course... But I have a condition. I'm tired of using the simple way of single-handed duel to decide who is better every time. How about changing the style a little bit today and deciding the winner in another way?"

"No problem, I have no objection. No matter what way is used to decide the winner, I must be the winner in the end!" Faced with the provocation, Yujian Xiangye was not willing to be outdone.

Success!

Seeing the other party take the bait, Sato Kazuma, who was facing away from Yuken Hibiki, raised his mouth for a moment, then immediately flattened it before he was discovered, and began to constantly think about how to use this hard-earned tool.

Then the two ran to the suburbs.

Since the competition is not decided by PVP, it is natural to use PVE to see who is faster.

And if you want to verify who is faster and has a certain degree of difficulty in defeating monsters, it must be the rookie killer who has a rather tricky reputation in the novice village.

"The competition is to see who defeats more rookie killers, right?"

"That's right. The way to decide the winner has nothing to do with the method. After defeating all the rookie killers, whoever defeats the most rookie killers will be the winner."

As mentioned above, the rules of winning are very simple. Limited monsters snatch more prey, and the competition is about who is more efficient.

Yuken Hibiki smiled confidently, raised the magic sword in his hand and said: "I really don't know whether to say you are confident or arrogant, Sato Kazuma, have you forgotten that I have the magic sword Gram, even fighting a dragon is no problem, let alone a rookie killer!"

"Oh~ Indeed, your magic sword is very strong, but I also have a secret weapon. Look, the imperial weapon given to me by Senior Kobayashi - One-hit Kill·Murasame, literally, as long as the slightest scratch will be fatal."

Sato Kazuma picked up the dagger in his hand and licked it with his tongue.

"My sword is coated with poison."

"What a cheating weapon, you are really a cunning man!"

"... Hey, I don't want to be said like this by someone holding a magic sword, you are more cunning by comparison!"

"Okay, I won't admit defeat! The magic sword hero Yujian Xiangye, come on!"

Yujian Xiangye was already excited, raising the magic sword in his hand and rushing towards the rookie killers not far away. He planned to strike first to lay the foundation for victory!

"Oh oh oh! Watch out!!"

"Oh, another one! So awesome!"

And Sato Kazuma, who was lagging behind, had no intention of competing with him, and even cheered him up from behind.

Yujian Xiangye, who was panting heavily, wiped the sweat from his forehead and taunted Sato Kazuma, who was following behind and could only eat dust: "Huh. How about it, Sato Kazuma! It seems that you haven't even knocked down one, but the gap is getting bigger and bigger."

"Then, I want to..."

Sato Kazuma stared at a rookie killer not far away, and just as he was about to go forward to attack, he saw Yujian Xiangye suddenly speeding up and rushing over, then killed him with a sword and snatched the monster from him.

"Hmph! Now there are five!"

"You..."

"You can't steal other people's targets... I don't think you have set such a rule? You actually proposed that whoever defeats more rookie killers wins. It seems that you have chosen the wrong way of fighting."

Roar————

In the depths of the jungle, several rookie killers jumped out again and surrounded the two of them.

"They appear again... There are really many rookie killers living here. But, even if all the rookie killers come together, they are no match for me! Oh oh oh oh oh oh!"

After saying that, he rushed out with an unmatched momentum and defeated all the rookie killers who surrounded him, as if it was not Yuki Hibiki who was surrounded by the rookie killers, but Yuki Hibiki who surrounded the rookie killers.

And looking at Yuki Hibiki's actions, it seems that he intends to use his physical fitness that far exceeds that of Sato Kazuma Sato's swordsmanship master to forcibly defeat each rookie killer and make Sato Kazuma Sato's harvest zero.

Could it be that he intends to humiliate Sato Kazuma Sato with a huge gap of zero harvest?

What an excessive behavior!

…Ordinary people would think so, but Sato Kazuma was very happy. He had to work harder, and it would be best if he could kill all the new killers here, so that he could enjoy the fruits of his labor.

In this way, Mitsurugi Hibiki worked hard to swing the magic sword to defeat the monsters in the front, while Sato Kazuma cheered for him loudly from behind. In order to prevent the opponent from seeing the flaws, he would sometimes use provocation, and then Mitsurugi Hibiki, who had noticed something, would be overwhelmed by the blood again.

In general, it was just an IQ crush.

An hour later——

“Huh… It seems that everything has been solved.”

Mitsurugi Hibiki wiped the sweat from his forehead.

In order to win the victory and bring humiliation to Sato Kazuma, he worked hard and defeated all the new killers near the town.

Sato Kazuma clapped his hands and said, "Oh, that's amazing, you are really strong... People like me can't beat you no matter how hard I try."

"Hmm? So you admit that I won?"

"Of course! I lost... I'm sorry that you are the candidate for the hero until now."

"...Oh, oh."

Mikoto Hibiki scratched his head.

I always felt a little surprised. I thought the other party would be stubborn and not admit it, but I didn't expect that he would admit defeat so easily.

But what's going on? I feel like I've been cheated.

"Forget it, I thought you were just a despicable man, but it turns out that you have this kind of magnanimity and can frankly admit the strength of others. It makes me look narrow-minded."

"Don't say the previous sentence."

Sato Kazuma rolled his eyes.

If someone calls me despicable and shameless normally, I will get angry even if it's the truth, but this time, considering that the other party has made great efforts, I will forgive him.

"Haha, now I can finally wipe out the stain of the past. From now on, I plan to work harder to train myself in order to defeat the Demon King, and this is also to make Lady Aqua happy."

After receiving recognition, Mitsurugi Hibiki breathed a sigh of relief, his slightly frowned brows relaxed, and the gloomy atmosphere disappeared. To exaggerate, it was as if he had put down some kind of burden and was reborn.

However, will she feel happy... Aqua will indeed be very happy, hehehehe——

Sato Kazuma's mouth curled up a sinister smile.

In the evening, the Adventurer's Guild.

The team gathered here.

Darkness greeted: "Sorry, can you have another glass of bubble wine?"

Huihui also said: "Ah, here is another smoked lizard hamburger steak, please, Miss Luna!"

"You guys really eat a lot."

Sato Kazuma looked at the few people who kept adding orders, and the smile on his face did not diminish.

Aqua also said happily: "Kazuma is the one who said that we can eat as much as we want today. How generous! What happened?"

"Hey, goddess, long time no see!"

At this time, Mitsurugi Hibiki appeared here and greeted Aqua and her group.

"Oh, who is this person...who is that...who is that?"

Sure enough, the stupid goddess forgot him.

Sato Kazuma sighed and said: "You should remember his name, isn't this guy...Ayanokouji?"

"That's totally wrong! It's Mitsurugi!! He didn't even pronounce a single word correctly!!!"

Mitsurugi Hibiki shouted loudly.

Embarrassed, Sato Kazuma pushed him to sit down and said, "Don't be so serious. Come on, you can have a drink too. I'll treat you. I'm sorry - give this guy a glass of bubble wine too!"

After being forced to take a seat, Mitsurugi Kyouya looked at the luxurious set menu on the table and asked curiously: "Hey, you are spending more money than usual. What happened?"

"I heard that I got temporary income."

"It seems that Kazuma completed the subjugation mission alone, and the target was the new killer who was multiplying in the forest."

"And that mission is very difficult."

Several people in the team were busy explaining.

However, Yu Jian Xiangye's expression froze, and he muttered softly: "One man defeated the rookie killer alone... Huh?"

With his IQ regaining the high ground, he seemed to understand something at this moment.

Aqua said cheerfully: "It was originally supposed to be a large-scale mission that about twenty people accepted together, but he defeated all the monsters alone and got the reward... Mr. Kazuma is really awesome!"

hiss----

Mitsurugi Kyouya took a deep breath, looked at the man who plotted against him, and asked: "Hey, Sato Kazuma, our previous rookie killer showdown, could it be..."

"If I can monopolize the mission reward, whether it's to apologize to you or admit that you are a brave candidate, it will be a piece of cake."

Sato Kazuma looked sinister.

This man is indeed a complete scumbag, he actually dares to set himself up and take advantage of his desire to win!

Even the gentle-tempered Kyoya Mitsurugi was smitten by the slutty manipulations of Axel, the most scumbag man.

Grabbed him by the collar.

"Damn it! Sato Kazuma! You bastard dare to lie to me!"

"No, no, no, I didn't lie to you, did I? I lost the duel, so I apologized to you properly."

Seeing that Mitsurugi Kyouya still couldn't accept Sato Kazuma's shabby explanation, he begged again: "Besides, Aqua is very happy now. Wouldn't everyone be happy with this?"

"Well...you man, you can still be regarded as Aqua-sama..."

Mitsurugi Kyouya really wanted to punch him.

But now not only the goddess he respects is watching from behind, but other people in the Adventurer's Guild are also looking at him. If he gets angry, it will easily be regarded as a drunken madness, which is really hard to do.

What's more important is that Aqua-sama is very happy.

This is very important!

“Keeping you waiting – two glasses of bubbly and a smoked lizard burger steak.”

Miss Luna brought the food.

Aqua cheered: "Okay——! Then... cheers!"

"Okay, okay, let's take a breather today and enjoy the delicious bubble bar, Yu Jian."

"That's it...my name is... Yu Jianhaaaaah!!!"

After Sato Kazuma repeatedly called her by the wrong name twice and three times, the thread of reason in Mitsurugi Kyouya's head finally broke at this moment.
