#398 - Close the door and let Aqua go
The second day after deciding to find fault.
Aqua got up early in the morning and, saying 'I'm going to do some preparations, this time I'm definitely sending that crap demon to heaven,' rushed out of the mansion.
Kazuma and the others looked at each other and decided to ignore her and go directly to negotiate with Vanir. This time, he was taking a cut from three families, which was indeed a bit much.
But it wasn't worth starting a war.
The group unanimously decided this time that they would make that Vanir guy bleed a little more, that's all.
Aqua was the last resort. If the conditions offered weren't suitable, then they would choose to unleash Aqua. Even if Vanir could parry her, the magic item shop would suffer.
Although Wiz would be the one who ultimately suffered.
On the way to Wiz's magic item shop, Yunyun said, "Do you ask me if I'm angry? Actually, I am angry."
"You also think Vanir went too far?"
"After all, I made a deal with Mr. Vanir first, but he still scammed us out of a lot of money in order to maximize his profits. It's impossible not to be angry."
"That's right."
The companions deeply agreed.
If Vanir hadn't been so slow to complete the work, then Alderp wouldn't have been able to force Darkness to marry him, and there wouldn't have been Kazuma's domineering scene of buying people—those skill point potions and savings wouldn't have been spent.
"Okay, then I'll give him a greeting gift later! With Explosion magic!"
"Don't use Explosion magic in town!"
Megumin couldn't help but shout.
Megumin's greeting gift was really too enthusiastic. If you weren't careful, the whole town would melt.
"Alright, alright, calm down a bit," Darkness advised, "It's not good to use Explosion magic in town after all. Besides, Vanir must have a reason for doing this, so let's listen to his explanation first."
"Hey, Darkness, you don't seem to care much?" Kazuma looked at her with dead fish eyes.
"Eh?"
"That's right. After all, you've always been looking forward to this kind of development. You must be satisfied this time, right? But, I'm the one spending the money! Remember this, I've already bought you, so you'll be paying me back with your body for the rest of your life! Did you hear that, Divorce-ness!"
"Y-Yes————!"
The perverted female knight trembled with excitement.
Even though she was forcibly married, her engagement hadn't been terminated yet, but before the engagement could be dissolved, her fiancé mysteriously disappeared. She was clearly a virgin but was a widow, so she was called Divorce-ness.
She seems to like this nickname quite a bit.
"It would be best if we could resolve this peacefully."
"…Yunyun?"
"B-Because Miss Wiz is a very nice person. She took me in when I had nowhere to go, and taught me a lot of useful knowledge. She's a very approachable person. If the magic item shop is destroyed…"
"What are you talking about, Yunyun? Aren't you with me?"
"I-I'm not always with Megumin either!"
Yunyun and Megumin also have their own lives. But unlike Megumin, who often goes to the guild, Yunyun always goes to Wiz's magic item shop to pass the time, so she has a good relationship with Wiz.
Darkness also nodded: "Me too, it would be best if we could resolve this peacefully."
Resolve this peacefully?
I can't resolve this peacefully at all!
30 minutes later.
"—Everyone, let's just let this matter go."
"…Eh?" X4
Kazuma and the others were dumbfounded when they saw Yunyun, who had a happy face, walking out of the room with Vanir.
What on earth happened?
Time to move forward 30 minutes.
—
"Excuse me!"
"—Welcome!"
Arriving at Wiz's magic item shop, the one who opened the door to greet everyone was the timid lich girl with a sweet smile on her face.
"Oh dear, what's the matter today? Everyone actually came?…Is Aqua not here?"
"Aqua, well… she'll probably be here in a little while."
"Is that so."
Wiz breathed a sigh of relief.
Among these people, the lich girl was most afraid of the idiot goddess. Every time she came here, she would make trouble unreasonably, and often deliberately destroy the goods in the magic item shop, which was quite a headache.
"Compared to that…"
Yunyun looked around and didn't see the masked demon wearing an apron. She asked curiously, "Miss Wiz, where's Mr. Vanir? He clearly asked me to come, but he's not here?"
"Ah, Mr. Vanir is in the back organizing the warehouse. Also, he said that if you come, Yunyun, you can go directly to the back to find him. In addition, Mr. Vanir said to let you go in alone. Why is that?"
"Is that so, there must be some reason."
I don't know what that guy is up to, but it seems like he doesn't want Kazuma and the others to follow, and even Wiz doesn't know the reason.
Looking at her companions.
"Go, Yunyun."
"If there's any danger, just shout, and we'll rush over quickly."
"Don't worry, I'll use Explosion magic at that time!"
"If you use Explosion magic, Yunyun will also die, so forbidden!"
Her companions seemed very concerned about him.
"Um, I don't think the warehouse is a dangerous place," Wiz couldn't help but say in a low voice, "Also, please don't do things like Explosion magic, the merchandise will be destroyed."
Yunyun didn't think she would need these.
But I don't know if Vanir accidentally exposed his demonic nature, causing the team to feel a strong sense of vigilance towards him.
She said that she would definitely tell them if there was any danger, and then went into the warehouse.
"—Welcome!"
Vanir was already waiting there, and shouted loudly after seeing him: "On the surface, you're thinking about questioning me, but in reality, you're very interested in what I've prepared, but you don't want to disappoint your companions, thoughtful kid, you came quite early."
"The prefix is too long."
Yunyun still couldn't resist his title.
He looked at the somewhat empty warehouse, then looked at Vanir in the warehouse, the meaning in his eyes was very obvious.
"You want to ask about those bizarre goods that are piled up in the warehouse and can't be sold? They've already been destroyed. Whether it's the potion that explodes when touched, or the potion that explodes when the lid is opened, or the potion that explodes only when it comes into contact with an explosion and will never explode without touching an explosion, they were all destroyed by me…!"
Vanir's eyes glowed red and he clenched his fists.
It seems that he was also angered by the bizarre potions that Wiz purchased.
The newest novel is first published on Six 9 Books!
"Why there are so many bizarre potions is beside the point, so… what about the compensation that will satisfy me?"
"Hahahaha—, you're going straight to the point, you're really impatient, is puberty here?"
"Mind your own business!"
"Forget it, delaying any further will only hurt me. That foolish novice priest is now doing something that makes me shudder, so let's finish this as soon as possible."
I don't know what the Arch-Devil with Clairvoyance saw.
In short, his expression was very ugly.
Good Job, Aqua, as expected, letting you out was the right thing to do.
"Kid, come here."
Vanir walked towards the warehouse, signaling Yunyun to follow him.
Quickly catching up, she came to the corner of the warehouse, and then saw Vanir wave his hand, and a magic circle appeared in front of the two, and then he put his hand on it again, and a downward staircase appeared in front of the two.
Without waiting for Yunyun to ask, Vanir explained.
"The idiot shopkeeper always buys some bizarre goods. Although I've been stopping her, those things still inexplicably appear in the warehouse. I'm afraid she'll damage my goods, so I specially built an underground room."
"…Mr. Vanir, you've also had a hard time."
Wiz is good in every way.
She's beautiful, kind-hearted, strong, and easy to talk to, and she's also very proficient in housework. The only bad thing is that she has absolutely no talent for business, or rather, her definition of goods is as bizarre as her own aesthetics.
That is, she can't find the right product positioning.
The basement wasn't very oppressive, and the air wasn't turbid either, it seemed that magic was used to maintain ventilation.
Vanir lit up the magic stone lamp in the basement.
There were a lot of shelves placed here, each shelf was labeled, neatly stacked in the basement, it could be seen that Vanir had put a lot of effort into this.
It was very spacious here, without measuring, you could tell that this basement was much larger than the magic item shop above.
And in the center of the basement, there was a mirror.
It wasn't that Yunyun was attracted to it, but that while the shelves were all in the corners, only it stood in the center, making it very conspicuous.
"This is…"
Yunyun frowned.
She keenly realized that what Vanir said would satisfy her was this mirror, and she could also feel that the mirror contained a huge amount of magic power.
Vanir came to the front of the mirror and shouted loudly to Yunyun: "That's right, this is what I prepared—a magic item that can randomly summon monsters!"
—It's a divine artifact!
This mirror is the divine artifact that summons the demon Maxwell, who twists reality, and it was also the divine artifact that Eris asked Yunyun to help recover in the royal capital.
Because it was hidden in Alderp's mansion, and with Maxwell there, there was no way to steal it.
I thought this divine artifact had already been recovered by Eris, but I didn't expect Vanir to take it one step ahead.
"How is it, are you satisfied with what I prepared?"
"…So-so."
2 billion for a divine artifact, to ask if it's worth it, it's definitely worth it.
Even the kingdom would trade it without hesitation.
But divine artifacts are not without their flaws.
First of all, it's random summoning. Many times, it will summon strange things. Not to mention becoming an effective fighting force, if it summons a bizarre monster that drops SAN value, the one who gets hurt is yourself.
Secondly, outsiders who are not divine artifact holders need to pay a price to use it. Refer to Maxwell and you'll know. If you summon a high-ranking being and can't pay the corresponding price, the consequences are imaginable.
Finally, and most importantly.
"I can't use it." Yunyun spread her hands and said, "This magic item is very strong, even the old fogeys of the Crimson Demons would definitely be jealous, but the problem is that I can't use it."
"No no no, you should be able to use it."
"I said—"
"Big sister, you just wait for my summoning here in hell, I guarantee I will definitely summon you—you, should have said this, right."
"Ernie…"
Past memories were suddenly opened.
Yunyun recalled the figure of a certain big sister.
