The legend of the Crimson Demon clan started from Suqing

Seeing that things were exposed, Zun Zun and the others wanted Darkness to temporarily retreat, using a secret signal only she could see.

But this guy seemed as unwilling to admit defeat as Dust, wanting to prove herself, and instead plopped down next to Dick.

"It seems the joke went too far, so let me formally introduce myself. My name is Dustiness Ford Lalatina, the daughter of the lord who governs this town, and I also work as an adventurer."

Introducing oneself generously can often win favor; this is common sense.

It seems the art of noble persuasion taught her this point.

Then, Darkness elegantly said to the owner, "Please give this gentleman and me each a glass of your finest wine."

"We don't sell wine in this cheap little tavern, Lady Dustiness," the owner said with some difficulty.

Pfft—

Someone couldn't hold it in and let out a snicker, and with that laughter, the surrounding customers couldn't help but laugh either.

Zun Zun and the others almost couldn't hold it in.

Darkness's face turned red to the roots of her ears, but she still pretended to be calm and said, "Then, bring out the most expensive liquor in this tavern…"

"Ice-cold sparkling wine, in a big wooden barrel, right? Thank you for your patronage!"

The owner pulled out a whole barrel from under the counter.

With a thud, it was dropped on the counter.

Darkness was dumbfounded; she had completely forgotten that this tavern was famous for being cheap and having large portions, so how could it possibly have expensive liquor? This woman was beyond saving; her actions only had the opposite effect.

"…Amazing, amazing, you can really hold your liquor."

"I, I wanted to celebrate meeting you and treat everyone in this bar to a drink…"

She shrunk her body down, speaking in a voice as small as a mosquito's buzz.

After that, the young lady fled.

Seeing the three who came out, Darkness angrily whispered, "I will never do something like this again! Damn Dick, how dare he make me, a noble lady, make a fool of myself!"

"It was clearly you who recklessly self-destructed; Dick didn't do anything, right?"

"Yeah, yeah."

Zun Zun and Kazuma Sato chuckled.

Aqua said with a non-smile, "You shouldn't do that, you two. Darkness is dressed so nicely, and you're still making fun of her; doesn't that make Darkness look pitiful? Actually, I think it's not bad… that last move of turning it into a party."

"Ahhhhh——"

Darkness couldn't help but cover her face with her hands, crying out; it seemed this pickup attempt had caused her considerable psychological trauma.

"However, that man remained unmoved even in the face of my charm and noble title… it seems my judgment of people is indeed correct; he's completely different from a certain person who can't resist temptation, so I need to update my understanding of him again."

That's what Darkness said.

Her meaning seemed to be that it wasn't that her noble persuasion technique didn't work, but that Dick was a good man, so she didn't succeed… isn't that pure self-deception?

Hearing Darkness say this in a serious tone, Aqua also looked at Zun Zun with the same seriousness.

"Hey Zun Zun, did you see that noble lady aura or whatever?"

"Unfortunately, I couldn't see it."

"Exactly, exactly, I heard that's the seduction technique that nobles learn to capture men, have you learned a few tricks?"

Kazuma Sato also said with the same serious expression as Zun Zun.

As a result, Darkness threw her gloves at them.

"—I'm going to kill you!"

The three were so scared that they hurriedly ran away, and Kazuma Sato even blamed Aqua while fleeing from the truly enraged Darkness.

"Idiot, you teased her too much! She's really angry!"

"Waaaah! It was your last sentence that angered Darkness; you figure out how to deal with it——"

"Wait a minute, I didn't say anything, why do I have to run too?"

Zun Zun cried out, feeling wronged.

"You're equally guilty!" Darkness seemed to regard Zun Zun as an accomplice in teasing and mocking her, "Of course, it's not just one of you who angered me; all three of you are guilty! Running away now will only make the situation worse; obediently accept your punishment before returning to the mansion!"

—It's displaced anger!

After arguing for a long time, Zun Zun and the others had a much better impression of Dick, at least showing that he wouldn't be fickle because of someone else's seduction. Only Aqua, she felt it wouldn't do.

"I say, I say is it possible that that guy doesn't like Darkness's type, but likes lolis or something?"

"…Are you stupid?"

"Why are you scolding me!"

"Think carefully, if Dick likes lolis, why would he confess to Wiz?"

Kazuma Sato gave her a disgusted glance.

Wiz has an upper chest that surpasses all others; you should know that in Axel, many people are coveting it. That curvy, mature figure is definitely not compatible with lolis!

"But…"

Aqua still seemed unwilling to give up.

It's a headache; once the idiot goddess gets fixated on something, she often does shockingly stupid things, but there's no way to stop her right now.

"I say Zun Zun you…"

"Do you want to die?"

"Sorry, I was wrong."

With Zun Zun's strong headbutt, Kazuma Sato immediately apologized; even if he didn't say it, he could guess what she wanted to do—let him seduce the other party.

"Putting aside that I'm unwilling, I've already met him before; how can I go again?"

"Ah, that's true…"

Kazuma Sato scratched his head.

And did he forget that Dick now regards him as a rival in love? If he were to go and flirt or something… Zun Zun couldn't help but shiver.

"—Then I can only do it myself!"

Aqua said this.

Zun Zun and Kazuma Sato looked at each other, subconsciously making a light hum.

The latest novels are at Six Nine Books Bar, first published!

"Hmph." X2

"What's with that attitude? I'm the beautiful and charming Miss Aqua; if he can reject my invitation, then I'll admit his feelings are genuine! At the very least, he must understand that he can't like liches and the undead!"

This guy——

It's really unbelievable that Aqua would want to try to seduce a man; rather, she's the one who's least likely to be involved in romance.

But Aqua is a genuine goddess-level in terms of appearance alone; she's often flirted with when she goes to other towns; with this beauty, capturing any man would be a cinch.

However, the most important inner self, as a woman, is very that…

They waited outside for a long time until Dick came out of the tavern, then everyone hurriedly went ahead to the path he was sure to take.

Zun Zun and the others hid in a nearby alley.

Aqua staggered, as if drunk, and walked towards Dick.

Was she planning to flirt in this way?

Such clumsy skills would be seen through in a second!

"I say, you seem very bored; if you have nothing to do, would you like to accompany me for a while?"

Aqua spoke like a small hoodlum.

As Zun Zun thought, Dick raised his head with an impatient look, opened his mouth to say something, but clearly froze for a moment after seeing the goddess in front of him.

Aqua was very satisfied with Dick's reaction.

"Oh dear, oh dear, is it because this big sister is too beautiful and scared you? Hehe, you're such a cute little brother. Actually, I know a lot of interesting things. How about it, do you want to hear them?"

It was like an uncle taking you to see goldfish, a perverted aura coming over.

They thought he would curse and tell her to get lost, but unexpectedly, Dick said with interest, "Is that so, interesting things… Alright, I'll listen."

Hmm?

Kazuma Sato and Zun Zun looked at each other; could it be that this guy, like a sloppy middle-aged uncle, likes tall tales?

Was Aqua going to open her mouth?

"So, what interesting things do you know?"

"Hehe, you're such an impatient person. Alright, I'll tell you some interesting things. This is what Mr. Stone, who lives near my house, told me: if you poke a wild Neroide's butt with your finger, it will meow in a voice eight octaves higher than usual."

—You liar!

Kazuma Sato cast an inquiring look, and Zun Zun shook her head frantically. Neroide is a slime, which is made into sweets, how could it meow!?

And this isn't a tall tale!

After that, Aqua made up a lot of nonsense, all lies that even an idiot could see, but Dick seemed very interested, listening with relish.

"Those are things I haven't heard before."

Dick said with slight surprise, "I can only understand half of what you're saying, but you don't seem to be deliberately mystifying or intentionally deceiving me, because I can't feel any evil aura on you."

Evil aura?

Zun Zun raised her eyebrows.

As if answering, Dick continued, "When humans lie, no matter how small the lie, they will definitely produce an evil aura; in that regard, you seem very pure."

"Oh dear, I would never lie. However, you are quite excellent. I think your judgment of people, especially of women, is very accurate."

"I'm very confident in my judgment of people."

—Your eyes are probably blind.

Dick probably has the ability to see through whether people are lying, like a lie-detecting magical tool, but unfortunately, Aqua is a goddess, and her aura can purify some of the evil aura. In other words, Aqua's lies are generally not detected.

In a great mood, Aqua began to cut to the chase.

"Speaking of which, it would be a pity. You have such excellent judgment of people, but unexpectedly, you have necrophilia. I've heard all about it; you like the undead, right?"

"How is that possible! You say I like the undead? What a joke! I hate the undead and demons the most!"

Dick replied very seriously.

…Hmm?
