I like traveling the most

Following Luna's urgent call, Axel's adventurers came to the city gate one after another.

As soon as we arrived at the main entrance, we saw a headless horseman.

It rides a headless horse and holds a knight's head in its hands. Wearing dark black knight heavy armor, his whole body embodies a terrifying aura of terror.

"By the way, why is the horse headless?"

At this time, Sato Kazuma suddenly complained, which slightly broke the tense atmosphere.

What I didn't expect was.

The Headless Horseman suddenly pointed at him and responded loudly: "Hey, guys over there, it's normal for the Headless Horseman to have his horse headless!"

"No, no, no, it doesn't look normal no matter how you look at it." xN

Its words were criticized by many adventurers.

"Ahem, that's not important!"

The Headless Horseman chose to ignore this difficult topic and instead introduced himself: "I am the Headless Horseman Beldia, a cadre of the Demon King's army who has recently settled near this town."

Then, it said angrily: "Every day, every day, every day, there are idiots who release explosive magic on my castle. Who is this idiot with a brain problem!!!"

The headless horseman named Beldia seemed to be extremely angry, and even his headless mount roared and hissed to vent his dissatisfaction on behalf of his master.

"Speaking of which, how did you call Horse Headless?"

"Hey, I told you it's not important!"

Beldia seemed to hate others for clinging to such trivial matters.

But speaking of explosion magic.

"Explosion magic..."

"Speaking of which, it can explode with magic..."

"It's just her."

The adventurers whispered and focused their attention on Megumin.

That curious, weird, probing look with all kinds of meanings made Megumin's thin shoulders shrink as she hugged the wand tightly, as if she was suppressed by everyone's reproachful looks.

The fearful look on his face, which was dripping with cold sweat, had completely revealed who the culprit was.

"Hold your chest out, Megumin."

Xiao Lin patted her back gently and spoke calmly, which gave her great confidence.

"You didn't do anything wrong."

"Xiao Lin..."

"It's the Demon King's army, it's the enemy, and it's the magic I asked you to cast, isn't it?"

After receiving the affirmation, Megumin took a long breath.

When he opened his eyes again, he became that high-spirited problem child again.

She stepped forward alone.

"You, you...that's you!!!"

The Headless Horseman saw the wand in her hand and understood immediately.

He couldn't help but vent his anger on her.

"Are you the big fool who goes to my castle every day to release explosive magic? If you want to fight me because you know that I am a cadre of the Demon King's Army, then you can attack the castle openly. If you don't have that If you want, just hide in the town and tremble. Why are you using such insidious means to trouble me?

I know that there are only low-level adventurers in this town. I originally wanted to leave this town alone with such small characters, but you, a guy who doesn’t understand the situation, actually come here every day and bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang! I think you have a brain problem with your explosion magic. Why do you want to do such a cheap prank——! ! ! "

The headless horseman's words were very serious, and the head in his hand kept shaking. It could be seen that he was really angry.

Being scolded angrily, Megumin kept bending her body.

Xiao Lin supported her thin shoulders from behind and said, "I'm sorry, my great magician is not the kind who can't be satisfied with big and hard things. I really caused you trouble." ஜ۩۞۩ஜ ஜ۩۞۩ஜYou are just going too far, Mr. Headless Horseman, by treating my great mage’s magic as a prank.”

"...What did you say?"

The Headless Horseman was stunned for a moment.

Maybe it didn't expect that Xiao Lin would suddenly say such ambiguous words.

Then he said: "Well, I'll accept the apology. If that Crimson Demon girl doesn't release explosive magic anymore..."

"Then you might as well tell me to die!"

Megumin shouted excitedly: "The Red Demons must release explosive magic once a day, otherwise they will die due to too much magic!"

"Hey! I've never heard of such a thing!"

The Headless Horseman didn't believe her nonsense at all.

But it also realized that it couldn't persuade Ben, and it began to exude an extremely dangerous aura. There was no doubt that it planned to use force to solve the problem.

However, someone is faster than it!

"—Explosion!"

Megumin suddenly released explosive magic, and with a huge roar, the powerful power instantly exploded where the Headless Horseman was.

"Okay, the surprise attack was successful!"

"...what a ghost!"

The smoke dissipated, and the figure of the Headless Horseman gradually became clear. He shouted in a broken voice: "Is it possible to release explosive magic so quickly? I have never heard of such a thing! By the way, are you really novice adventurers? Isn’t it too strange?”

The magic fell so fast that there was no time to react. Fortunately, it had high resistance to magic and was only slightly injured. If other officers had come, they might have been killed on the spot.

"In that case..."

The Headless Horseman also started to get serious.

It condensed into a rather ominous-looking black mist, and pointed its index finger at Megumin.

"I impose [death declaration] on you, and you will die in a week."

puff--

The black ball rushed towards Megumin, but the delicate and frail magician couldn't dodge it.

but--

A yellow figure suddenly jumped out and stood in front of Huihui.

It's Darkness!

“Ahhhhh——!”

Darkness howled in pain.

"Ah, ah?"

The Headless Horseman did not expect that someone would take the initiative to bear this mortal curse.

Whose general is this?

That’s so brave!

Although there are some deviations, it is just right.

"For adventurers who unite as one, this would be more effective."

The Headless Horseman's malice was undisguised, and it stimulated Huihui: "That girl from the Red Demon clan over there, your companion will die in a week, and your important companion will always be in pain under the fear of death. Yes, it’s all your fault!”

"Darkness..."

Megumin looked worriedly at her companion who bore the curse for her.

But Darkness held on and lowered her voice and said: "What, you mean... impose a death curse on me. If I want to lift the curse, I have to obey your orders. In short, that's what you mean!"

"...What did you say?"

The Headless Horseman stared blankly at Darkness, who was mired in self-satisfaction.

But it's not over yet.

Darkness showed the character of a knight at this moment, and said with difficulty: "I will not give in to a mere curse... Although I will not give in, but... look, under the helmet of the headless horseman Those dirty looks must have wanted to bring me back to the castle, saying, "If you want to lift the curse, just obey me" and then perform extremely perverted and dirty actions on me!"

She actually got more and more excited as she talked!

"You, you, you, you... what's going on with you!"

The Headless Horseman couldn't help but take a few steps back.

"Okay, okay, don't generate electricity here. Mr. Headless Horseman is also very troubled." Xiaolin held her shoulders and said to Aqua beside her: "Please, Aqua, purify the curse. ”

"learn!"

Aqua flicked the wand in her hand, and divine light burst out from her body.

——[Holy Purification]!

"Ah~~~"

Darkness screamed softly, and the curse on her body was immediately removed.

The Headless Horseman's eyes widened when he saw it.

"W-what?!"

It must not have expected that someone would purify the curse it cast so easily.

The Headless Horseman said in a panic: "No, it's impossible——! You must have used some expensive magic, otherwise you wouldn't be able to purify my curse so easily...!"

It seemed that no one in the novice town could do it, so it pointed at Darkness again, and another black mist condensed on its body.

"Death announcement!"

"Holy Purification!"

The purification speed this time was faster than last time, and the Headless Horseman was dumbfounded.

I don't understand why this idiot-looking guy with blue hair in front of me can easily purify its curse.

but--

"Death announcement!"

"Holy Purification!"

"Death announcement!"

"Holy Purification!"

…

…

As the two of them continued to be cursed and purified, although he didn't know how they felt, Xiaolin knew that Darkness was about to feel so happy.

Well, in every sense of the word.
