Chapter 67 - Konosuba Side Part 1.
This is Konosuba side of the story.
-----------------------
The sun was shining on a simple town as wagons and carriages were passing on the roads.
Marchants and shops already started their business, warriors and mages had begun their work for today, even kids were playing here and there. Unlike Type-Moon where the atmosphere is dull and gloomy because of the world\'s condition, this town was peaceful and calm because this is not the same world.
This is Axel, a town in the kingdom of Belzerg, in the Konosuba world. Usually, this town mostly consists of beginner adventurers.
However, this town was able to keep it calm only because the monsters avoided a certain lich that has a store here. But… That calm is about to be broken today.
"Hey, Kazuma, how long do we have to walk to reach the guild?" A girl with a black long hair asked a boy with brown hair.
"I\'d answer, but you have no right to ask that question" Kazuma had a disgusted look on his face while looking at Kaguya floating.
" This world is magical, right? Are there dragons and monsters?" Misaka was looking at the different scenery as she asked the guide(Kazuma).
"Don\'t your world have the same? Or even more dangerous? And scarier?" Kazuma held his forehead before he heard a voice behind him.
"Monsters? Like Danger Beasts? But I heard this world has magic, can I learn it?" Leone had her hand behind her head as she was walking casually.
"Your world had monsters and superpowers like magic too!!" Kazuma\'s head was hurting before he was tapped from behind and almost fell.
"Don\'t worry about it, kid. Now… Lead the way!!" Whitebeard tapped Kazuma with his hand before he walked forward.
"How do you want me to lead the way if you\'re walking in front of me?!" Kazuma said as he looked at the people around looking at Whitebeard who\'s almost a giant.
After choosing their tasks and looking at Leo\'s selfless sacrifice( Selling him out). The group reached the Konosuba world 25 minutes after Leo was sent( Kidnapped) by the world.
Everything was normal… Except for a giant man and a floating girl, however, Kazuma was able to talk his way out of it (Mostly Kaguya using spells).
In the end, after meeting with Leone face to face and having a greeting. Everything worked out and the group headed towards the guild after they learned about it from Kaguya, who wanted to have explosion magic at all costs.
So here they are, walking towards the guild and giving Kazuma a headache for all that\'s happening. And what about the task? They don\'t know what they are looking for in the first place.
"A?! Hi D-..." A man sitting in the shop spotted Kazuma before he waved at him and wanted to say something, however, Kazuma took a sharp turn and left the place.
"Hm? Who\'s that Kazuma-san?" Misaka asked but Kazuma didn\'t look as he said " Nothing! He\'s just a scammer, don\'t get tricked by him"
"Really?" Kaguya raised her eyebrow as she didn\'t believe in any word from Kazuma.
"Hmmm…" Leone only had a smirk of her face as Kazuma turned around and accelerated his footsteps towards the guild.
After a walk in the town, the group finally reached the guild. Everyone noticed some people trying to greet Kazuma in the way, but he kept running away. However, they didn\'t go deep into it before looking at the guild building in front of them.
Kaguya didn\'t say anything before rushing inside and Leone followed behind here.
"I just noticed, but… How can you enter?" Kazuma looked at the guild door and Whitebeard before he wondered how this giant could enter here.
"I\'ll be here if you need me, but…" Whitebeard looked at Kazuma with the corner of his eyes before he said " Don\'t make me wait"
{SCARY!!} Kazuma was worried about the condition of his world before remembering Kaguya and Leone that entered the guild.
"NO!!!" Kazuma screamed before rushing behind them while Misaka stared at these actions with a blank expression.
"Goodbye grandpa, Whitebeard" Misaka said before she went behind while Whitebeard looked at them before looking at Axel scenery. He\'ll punch someone if he keeps waiting for too long.
"Where are they?!" Kazuma kicked the door open before looking around for Kaguya and Leone.
"Kazuma…" Suddenly, Kazuma heard a voice behind him as he saw Aqua running with a paper in her hand.
"Look! Look! This is my great recruiting plan for our new me-" However, before Aqua finished her words, Kazuma grabbed her shoulders.
"Nice timing, Aqua!! Did you see two women running this way?!" Kazuma was shaking Aqua left and right before she pointed toward the guild receptionist.
"NOOOO!!" Kazuma screamed again before he activated one of his skills and rushed toward the guild receptionist.
"Ah?! What about my genius plan that this goddess thought about?!" Aqua woke up from dizziness before she screamed at Kazuma, but he didn\'t care because this is a matter of his dignity and more potential debt.
All the adventurers in the guild were looking at these actions, but they didn\'t care as they were used to these things happening.
In the guild registration desk, Kaguya and Leone were magically able to convince the guild lady to allow them to register as adventurers. It was actually Kaguya who used her magic sleeve and pulled some gold.
"Here…" The guild lady took a glowing sphere and said " Put your hand on th-"
But at this moment, Kazuma came rushing as he stood between Kaguya and the sphere.
"Stop!! Don\'t you know what you\'re doing?!" Kazuma pointed at Kaguya and Leone before he got closer and said in a quiet voice " You don\'t even have power compatibility cards! How do you plan to become an adventurer?!"
"Ah! Right, I forgot about that!" Kaguya said as she wanted to pull the store and buy a compatibility card.
Leone looked at her points and saw the 1500 points for the compatibility card before she realized that she doesn\'t have money.
Kazuma breathed a sigh of relief as he managed to stop them before getting in some unnecessary troubles, however, he heard a voice and some words that made him freeze in his place.
"Hm? Dio-san, are those your friends" That voice and words made Kazuma turn around like rusted gears and look at the smiling guild lady.
"Wait what?" Kaguya stopped in her place as she stared at Kazuma with her eyes wide open.
"No, no, you heard it wrong!!" Kazuma looked at the frozen Kaguya before he turned and said to the guild lady " Sorry, but I think you mistook me for someone, my name is Kazuma"
"But aren\'t your real name is Dio, Kazuma-san?" The guild lady tilted her head as she was slightly confused.
"NO! MY NAME IS KAZUMA! K.A.Z.U.M.A!!!" Kazuma spelled his name as he saw Kaguya shivering slightly.
"Pfff...Pfff…" Kaguya was losing it as Kazuma was panicking to clear his name.
"Hmph! I never thought it\'ll be you doing this" Suddenly, Kazuma heard a voice behind him to see an adventurer with a rough-looking face and a tall mohawk hairstyle, leaning his back against the wall.
"Listen here!! We adventurers always believe in our partners!!" Ruffian said as he pointed at DIO\'s sword on Kazuma\'s waist, sending a faint cry when he was mentioned " Wryyyyy…"
"You need to believe in your partner, so if your partner said it…" Ruffian pointed at Kazuma before he said " Then it was you, DIO!! All along!!"
"Yeah, it\'s Dio, one of the strongest adventurers in Axel!" A man in the back said.
"I heard he wields a demonic sword that sends cries which can even put chills in the souls of monsters. To be able to keep his mind with such a dangerous weapon, as I expect from Dio\'\' A guild staff said as he remembered the unholy screeches.
"You all may say Dio is a scum, but I believe that\'s only because of the demonic sword, hooray for DIO!!!" An adventurer raised his cup as the guild started cheering.
"DIO!!"
"DIO!!"
"NOOO!!" Kazuma screamed while Kaguya exploded with laughter" HAHAHAHAH!!!"
Misaka arrived at the scene to see the confused Leone joined the fun anyway and was cheering for DIO, Kaguya falling to the ground from laughter, and Kazuma giving up.
After a while, the cheers went down and everyone moved to do their jobs as Kazuma was sitting on one of the tables while doubting life.
"Why?... Why?... I\'m not a buff vampire that can stop time, so why do they keep doing this" Kazuma put his head on the table while Aqua, who was looking at her paper said " Yeah, I agree… You\'re not cool like Dio as a character."
"You?!... Forget it" Kazuma didn\'t even have the energy to argue with Aqua while Kaguya, Misaka, and Leone were registering as adventurers. Misaka and Kaguya paid for the power cards, but Leone had to ask for some money from Misaka. She will never ask from Kaguya because that\'s a suicidal act.
"Hmm…" Misaka was looking at the adventurer card and the red message that told her not to learn any magic before she bought some sort of compatibility with shitty marketing ads.
"Is there something wrong?" Kaguya asked before Misaka said " Yeah, I can\'t learn magic… This is a disappointment"
"Why don\'t you fix it like, Leo?" Kaguya said as she was looking at her adventurer card. She made her class as Arch Wizard.
"I don\'t have enough money to do so" Misaka showed Kaguya how much you need to get the magic compatibility.
"Hisss. I just realized something" Kaguya covered her sleeve before she said " Leo just turned a 100000 power up into millions one with just one journey!!?"
"Is it possible to learn such a power?!" Kaguya almost dropped her card when she realized the sad truth.
The adventurer around looked at them before they put them in the same place as Kazuma and Aqua as they couldn\'t understand anything.
"But I also wonder what happened to him. That world doesn\'t seem to be good" Misaka looked at the adventurer card as she was thinking about her job before she heard Kazuma\'s voice " Don\'t worry about him too much. He\'s an angel and he\'ll manage… But maybe there will be some PTSD in the process"
"Nah, he\'ll be totally fine… Because that world is made for people like him" Kaguya had a serious look on her face.
"What do you mean" Kazuma stood up from the table and asked Kaguya while Aqua stared at Kaguya and Misaka as she felt something weird from them.
"His type is very loved in that world" Kaguya said something that made Kazuma freeze before he screamed "DAMMIT!!"
"What do you mean?" Misaka felt this is very wrong before Kaguya said " With Leo\'s attitude in that world, you can say he has a Type-Moon Protagonist aura EX"
"So?" Misaka was still clueless before Kaguya said" Type-Moon Protagonists are usually equipped with Eroge Protagonist EX just in case"
"WHAT?!!" Misaka grabbed Kaguya\'s collar as she was shaking her while saying " What do you mean by that?!!"
"DAMMIT ALL!!!" Kazuma was screaming at the sky as some adventurers looked at this way before trying their best to ignore them.
"Everyone, could you be a little quiet in the guild" the guild lady said as Misaka realized her action and apologized " I\'m sorry!"
"Just make sure it doesn\'t happen again" The guild lady smiled before leaving.
"Don\'t worry about it Misaka even if I don\'t know why you are so worried…" Kaguya had a grin on her face before she saw Misaka flashing with lightning.
"Okay, okay, don\'t worry, you know Leo\'s personality, right? It\'ll push away anyone who tried to do anything if they don\'t know him very well. It\'s like a balancer" Kaguya waved her hand while Misaka stopped her power as she felt that Kaguya\'s words were correct.
"However… Type-Moon people see through people very well" Kaguya said those words as Misaka darkened again and lightning was flashing around.
The whole guild was stuck with lightning as another debt was put on Kazuma and all the people with him. However, Whitebeard was sitting outside the guild before he said " I\'ll punch someone after this"
Another peaceful day in Axel went passing with thunder and slight earthquakes here and there.
