The legend of the Crimson Demon clan started from Suqing

This year's harvest is much larger than last year's, but it was also much harder work.

"So tired ~"

"If only we knew magic, then we wouldn't have to work so hard."

"Don't talk nonsense. There's no such magic."

That's right, although the Crimson Demons can use magic to farm with great fanfare, they still have to honestly do the work themselves when it comes to harvesting.

"Why don't we develop our own magic?"

"Good idea. But it's better to study advanced magic at school first and then graduate smoothly."

"You're right."

After enrolling, as long as the Crimson Demons learn magic, whether it's beginner, intermediate, or advanced, they will immediately graduate from school… The reason for this strange, rigid rule is because the ancestors of the Crimson Demons thought it was cool.

Zunzun wiped the sweat from his forehead.

He heard the conversation of the Wind, Rain, and Lightning trio, but he didn't plan to waste his precious skill points and time on such things.

After all, the original purpose of farming is cultivation, not to farm well. Compared to being scolded by others for not using magic in farming, Zunzun, who pursues strength, is seen as correct in the eyes of outsiders.

On the other side.

Megumin and Yunyun were working quickly in the cornfield, with piles of harvested corn next to them.

I thought Yunyun would win with an absolute advantage, but I didn't expect the pile of corn next to Megumin to be very high as well, and the two were evenly matched.

Megumin was right.

She really showed her true skills this time.

No, it's also possible that she used all her strength under the stimulation of food.

The little loli, lying on the ground panting, wiped the sweat from her forehead and said with a proud face: "Hmph, I told you not to underestimate me, I won this time!"

"No, I haven't lost yet!"

Yunyun struggled to get up and said, "Megumin, you're already too tired to move, but I still have strength. And don't forget, this competition has no time limit. As long as I harvest more corn than you before the corn harvest is over, it's fine!"

Her mind had never been so sharp, and she was able to think of using her strengths and choosing to fight a war of attrition.

Whether it was recovery or original physical strength, Yunyun was far superior to Megumin.

In this way, the little loli's defeat was certain.

"I won't let you get your way!"

Megumin suddenly pounced on Yunyun, who had just stood up, and said, "How about it! As long as I stop you, you won't be able to surpass me! The final winner must be me!"

"Let go, let go! Megumin, you're cheating again!"

Just like Yunyun said, this competition had no time limit, and it didn't say that it was not allowed to trip the opponent. Megumin was using this loophole in the rules to hinder Yunyun.

Yunyun naturally wouldn't let Megumin bully her, and she quickly fought back. The two wrestled in the cornfield, and the atmosphere gradually became romantic.

At this time, a shadow covered them.

"What are you two doing?"

"Eh?" X2

The two stopped wrestling suddenly.

"W-we…"

"We are picking up corn, that's right, picking up corn!"

The little loli reacted quickly and gathered the corn that had scattered due to the two wrestling.

Zunzun's face twitched.

"Heh heh heh, it's my fault. I was so busy picking up corn that I forgot to pick you two up!"

He taught the two a good lesson.

It was a good thing to want to compete to see who harvested more corn out of a desire to win, but Megumin and Yunyun were careless in order to be fast, and many corns were damaged by their rough actions, which was why he was angry.

Zunzun looked at the cornfield, which was more than half unharvested. Compared to last year, this year's cornfield yielded a lot more, and the area was also much larger, but it was not completed in a day.

"Huff—, let's stop here for today."

"Yeah, yeah, I'm exhausted."

"My back is also sore."

"Damn, I've never been so tired even in gym class at school. Sister Tailao, you have to compensate me later."

Sister Tailao wiped the sweat from her forehead, and the Wind, Rain, and Lightning trio also complained. The four of them were all delicate girls, and their jobs were all Arch-Mages, so it was normal to feel tired.

Zunzun took a light breath.

He also rarely felt slightly tired.

You must know that he has been exercising every day for the past year. Although he has not yet measured it, his strength and stamina must be stronger than adults—this was known after arm wrestling with his father during the New Year.

As for Megumin and Yunyun.

The two had completely collapsed on the ground. Although Zunzun had been trying to stop them, he couldn't stop the secret struggle. The two had already been unable to move in the afternoon, and I don't know if it would affect tomorrow.

"Okay! Then Sister Tailao will treat us to dinner later! Zunzun will cook dinner!"

"Zunzun is cooking? I'm looking forward to it!"

"Yeah, although I don't want to admit it, the food Zunzun makes is indeed much better than my cafe."

Speaking of which, the Wind, Rain, and Lightning trio always came to freeload meals in the winter under the guise of coming to play with Sister Tailao, and sometimes they were especially disappointed when they found out that Zunzun didn't make it.

"Is it okay, Zunzun?"

"No problem."

Sister Tailao's request, of course, he would not refuse.

"But I have to take a shower first."

Sister Tailao tugged at the dirty clothes on her body. Not only her, but the clothes of the Wind, Rain, and Lightning trio, Megumin, and Yunyun were all covered in mud. In addition, after a tiring day, they were sweating and desperately needed to wash their bodies.

"But Sister Tailao, our bathroom can't accommodate so many people, so you have to go to the mixed-gender hot spring."

Let me restate.

The mixed-gender hot spring has no mixed bathing and no hot spring. It's just called that, but it's actually just an ordinary public bathhouse, and it's the only public bathhouse in the Crimson Demon Village.

"That's right. Do you guys agree?"

"Don't bother discussing such a small matter."

"The important thing is to take a shower quickly. I can't stand being sticky all over."

They all had no objections.

"Then Sister Tailao, I'll go home and prepare dinner first."

"Aren't you going with us?"

"I can just wash up at home."

Zunzun shook his head.

Don't be kidding.

Which area should he go to in the public bathhouse? And whether it's male or female, he will eventually expose his identity, and then be ridiculed as a 'cross-dresser'…

That scene is too beautiful, he dare not think about it.

So Sister Tailao and the Wind, Rain, and Lightning trio took Yunyun and Megumin to the public bathhouse, while Zunzun returned home alone.

First, he threw the tools in the warehouse, and then sorted out the ingredients to cook dinner.

He was not in a hurry to take a shower.

Zunzun planned to go while stewing dinner. After taking a shower and the dinner was ready, Sister Tailao and the others would be back.

Perfect timing.

After preparing everything, Zunzun came to the bathroom with a smile on his face, took off his clothes, washed his body, and took a nice bath. But when he was about to go out, he found that he hadn't prepared any clothes to change into.

I forgot.

Sister Tailao used to prepare the clothes to change into. I didn't expect that I had become so dependent on Sister Tailao without realizing it.

But it doesn't matter, anyway, there's no one at home, so I can just go to the room to get it.

Just as Zunzun opened the door—

"N-no, I'm going to throw up!"

"That's why I said, even if Sister Gorogoro treats, don't drink so much milk after taking a shower, Megumin, you never listen to advice!"

But found that there were two little lolis in the bathroom.

"…Eh?" X 3

The three looked at each other.

PS: Because it is always easy to have writing oversights, the plot has been advanced. It should have been discovered during the water treading practice.
