The legend of the Crimson Demon clan started from Suqing

“Waaahhhhh——”

“Haha, hahahaha——”

From a secluded corner of Axel, in a magic item shop, came Wiz's earth-shattering wails, along with Vanir's uncontrollable laughter.

The two of them were on opposite sides, left and right.

In the small room, two completely opposite emotions clashed, making one sigh: the joys and sorrows of people are not shared.

“Speaking of which, have they been like this the whole time?”

“It’s been going on for a while now.”

Wobach, being questioned by Zun Zun, looked pained.

Before this, the one who was always troubled was Vanir, who was misunderstood, but once everything was revealed, the unlucky ones became the poster girl, Wobach, and Ernis.

Speaking of Vanir recently, he seems to be radiant and happy beyond words.

He must be quite satisfied with the constant generation of unwilling negative emotions, right?

“Don’t look at me like that.” Wobach pouted and said, “I tried to stop it, but it was already too late when I found out, and I’ve been comforting Wiz, but do you know what she said?”

“What did she say?”

“She said that I’m older than her, so why am I not worried at all and have such a good attitude…!”

Her eyes suddenly turned gloomy.

Speaking of which, that’s true. Putting aside the fact that Wobach is now a pure goddess (without a divine core), age has no meaning to her, but the fact is that she is older, at least older than Wiz.

“So, I stopped offering unsolicited comfort.”

“Oh, oh…”

If we were to ask who is most responsible for this situation, then without a doubt, the culprit is the Crimson Demons, who not only sealed her but also deprived her of her divine core in the end, truly great villains, so it’s better to remain silent.

“It’s okay, Lady Wobach! If it’s you, any man would be captivated by you!”

Ernis immediately pledged her loyalty.

However, Wobach looked at her loli figure, which was even flatter than Megumin's… no, than Chris's, and sighed with some resentment.

“Can I really captivate people?”

“Th-this, well…”

It seems that she has nothing to say either.

Turning her head.

“Lady Wobach is like this because of you, so take responsibility…” Huh, where did she go?”

Zun Zun had already anticipated that she would say this, so she slipped away first.

When she wanted to comfort Wiz, she didn't expect Aqua to take the lead and comfort her, “Alright, Wiz, cheer up. Don't worry, you are a kind-hearted child, and you will definitely meet a good man.”

“Wuuu, Lady Aqua… really? I always feel like things will stay the same, and only time will keep passing…”

“Even if time passes, it doesn’t matter, anyway, you are basically immortal, in other words, you don’t need to compromise because you are afraid of aging, which is a very big advantage.”

Is this girl serious?

She was just telling Dike not to have a fetish for corpses, but now she’s saying something like this…

But Aqua is not wrong.

Many women with temperament and successful careers eventually have to lower their standards for choosing a partner, largely because of aging, but Wiz has no such concerns at all.

Hearing this, Wiz's expression gradually brightened.

“Y-you’re right, my age won’t increase! I don’t need to rush or compromise, right?”

“You just won’t age, but the age on your household registration will still increase.”

Vanir said this on purpose, causing Wiz to burst into tears again.

Aqua was also helpless.

Probably feeling unable to contain it, the group exchanged glances and decisively fled the scene, leaving Vanir, who deliberately fueled the fire, to suffer.

Leaving the magic item shop.

Through the somewhat blurred window, one could see Wiz's shadow flailing, twisting like a true lich, making one sigh: what kind of despair is needed to dance such a frantic dance?

“—This time it ended perfectly, great.”

“Are you serious?”

Kazuma Sato's exclamation was questioned by Aqua. If her companions hadn't stopped her just now, this girl would have argued with Vanir again. It was already chaotic enough, and he hoped she wouldn't cause any more trouble.

“But marriage…”

This word made the women present start to avert their eyes.

“Darkness is the only daughter of a noble family, so this kind of thing shouldn't be irrelevant to you.”

Megumin was the first to open fire.

“M-my father is a very understanding person, so I have much more freedom than other nobles in this regard… Speaking of which, age does need to be considered. But, if we're talking about age, Aqua should be the first one, right?”

Darkness explained nervously, then dragged Aqua into the water.

“Listen to me, Kazuma, let me tell you something interesting. Besides writing amusing diaries every day, Darkness also has a hidden compartment under the diary, and inside are her written fantasies…”

“Aqua, come over here for a moment! I clearly locked the door, when did you enter my room! How much do you know?”

Aqua, who avoided the important and focused on the trivial to divert the firepower, was pushed away by the excited Darkness.

Writing a diary?

Zun Zun never had the habit of writing a diary. Besides, can what's written be called inner thoughts? … Mainly, written diaries are easily peeked at by Aqua, and besides, with memory magic, there's no need to write a diary to record things.

“Speaking of…”

As they were returning to the mansion, just as they were about to enter the gate, Megumin suddenly spoke.

“Zun Zun, how many children do you want?”

“Pfft——”

“W-wait, Megumin, what are you talking about!?”

Before Zun Zun could react, Yunyun stood in front of him, not telling him to have a healthy relationship like her good student appearance, but declaring her sovereignty.

“I am Zun Zun's fiancée! How can you say such a thing, and to Zun Zun! Sh-shameless…!”

“Yunyun, what's wrong with you? Why do you always shout at me?”

“Isn't it because you always say such things!”

Yunyun rarely became emotional, not knowing if it was because Wiz's unrequited love and inability to marry had stimulated her, but she was now in a state of strict defense against Megumin.

“There's nothing wrong with that.” Megumin said indifferently, “You haven't married Zun Zun yet, right? Besides, even if you get married, it doesn't matter, right…”

Most ⊥ new ⊥ Small ⊥ speak ⊥ at ⊥ six ⊥ 9 ⊥ ⊥ book ⊥ ⊥ bar ⊥ ⊥ head ⊥ hair!

“Wh…!?”

“How bold!”

“Megumin actually took the initiative!”

“Really!?”

The companions said this and that, even Yunyun was shocked by Megumin's remarks, completely unexpected that Megumin would dare to openly seduce a married (to be determined) man.

Aqua watched this scene with great interest. Megumin and Yunyun were both her companions, and there was no favoritism, and her consistent claim was to come together.

That's what the teachings of the Axis Church are like.

Darkness blushed and didn't know what she was thinking, while Kazuma Sato stared at Zun Zun with envy, jealousy, and hatred breaking through the sky—this guy clearly already had Darkness's admiration, why was he still like this?

“Yunyun, do you know why I made an agreement with you before?”

“Isn't it for…”

“That's right, to prevent others. But Yunyun, you haven't done anything, not even XO.”

“—!?”

Yunyun blushed immediately when she heard that sensitive word. The companions were also taken aback by Megumin's boldness.

“In the end, it's all because you're too timid. Since you don't dare, then obediently step aside, okay?”

“But…!”

“Besides, if you don't hurry up, then Alice and the others don't care, but Yugu will be dispatched.”

Megumin's sharp words made her silent.

“Yugu?”

“I remember it seems to be that big-breasted, eye-patched girl from the Crimson Demons?”

“Kazuma, you only remember this, right.”

“Shut up!”

Kazuma Sato was also angry at Darkness and Aqua's disgusted gazes. That's why Darkness has been hesitant to act… no, she has already firmly taken a step, but Kazuma Sato, this guy, is being a coward.

“But what does it have to do with Yugu?”

“I remember now, that person once said that even being Zun Zun's mistress is fine!”

Kazuma Sato screamed jealously.

“Oh.” Megumin said somewhat angrily, “You may not know, but when Zun Zun left, Yugu once said: No need to be responsible, just let me have a child…

“Hiss——”

Everyone gasped.

Hearing her say this, the companions immediately remembered that Yugu, whom they met outside the divination shop, had once said the explosive statement that the Crimson Demons were Zun Zun's harem.

“Wait a minute, Megumin.”

Zun Zun asked curiously, “If I remember correctly, this sentence should be something that only I and Yugu know, and you should have already left the Crimson Demons at that time, how did you know?”

“Of course, it's the result of that guy sending a letter to provoke me! As expected, I didn't misjudge when I was in school, that guy is an enemy!”

Megumin said with gritted teeth.

No wonder the little loli suddenly felt a sense of crisis, it turned out that there was external interference, which made her suddenly realize that there were many people eyeing Zun Zun, so she chose to tear up the agreement with Yunyun.

“Send a letter? Yugu? I know she always sends letters to write novels, but when did you two become so close?”

“Who knows? Look, the letter is here.”

Seeming to say that she wasn't lying, Megumin took out a letter from her bosom, but not knowing if there were two letters, another envelope fell to the ground.

Yunyun subconsciously picked up the letter at her feet.

Opening it to take a look.

After a few seconds, her face became very ugly.

Just as Zun Zun thought that Yugu had written some bold and unrestrained words of love, he didn't expect Yunyun to ask anxiously: “Megumin, when did you receive this letter?”

“Let me think… about a month ago?”

“Isn't that already time!?”

She cried out like this.

And the confused crowd looked at the letter together, only to find out that it was an invitation letter from the next chief of the Crimson Demons.
