Chapter 879 The Last Daily Life 58
After a while, Xiaolin and Chris searched for Aqua in the plains, but they didn't know if she was really there, so they could only wander around. They didn't see her at the city gate, but the leader of the construction team said he saw her.
Where the hell is that idiot?
Just when Kobayashi was feeling strange, he suddenly heard Aqua's loud shouting coming from the plain in the distance.
"Wait, Xiaolin! Over here!"
"Hey, hey, hey, there really is one."
Xiao Lin couldn't help but twitch his lips. He never thought that the stupid goddess would actually wait for them on the plain. Even Chris felt a little helpless and said "Ahaha, ahahaha".
After that, Aqua quickly ran towards them. Before Xiaolin and the others could speak, they heard Aqua complaining to him unhappily: "Really, why don't you escape to the outside of the city! Normally, with so many adventurers in the city, they should escape to the outside, right!?"
"What did you say?"
Kobayashi's forehead was bulging with veins. He hadn't bothered her, but she scolded him instead. Who could stand this? However, Aqua didn't care about it and continued to complain.
"Because Xiaolin is in a trance, the time for the mission has ended! How are you going to take on this responsibility?"
"Well, before that, let me ask you something, stupid goddess."
Kobayashi was not angry about this, instead he said this with a smile.
Aqua puffed up her lips and said loudly with some unhappiness: "Ah! You actually called me a stupid goddess! That's too much!"
"It's not important!" Xiao Lin pressed her shoulders and leaned closer. Although he was smiling, there was no smile in his eyes. He asked, "You are the one who issued this task, right?"
"Oh, that's right."
This guy actually admitted it without any excuses, and said it very straightforwardly.
Okay, death penalty!
Just when Xiaolin was sentencing this stupid goddess to death and planning to punish her, Aqua said strangely, "Because Xiaolin wants to catch Chris, right?"
"……What did you say?"
“Look, thank me now. You were able to capture Chris like this thanks to me who issued the mission for you!”
Aqua said this while puffing out her chest.
Kobayashi slapped her on the back of the head without any hesitation. The sound was very loud, which was enough to show how much force was used.
"I want to hit someone. Actually, I can't help myself."
"Wait a moment!"
Aqua covered the back of her head which was hurting from being slapped, glared at Xiaolin in displeasure, and asked with puffed lips: "It hurts! What are you doing all of a sudden, eating off old NEET!"
"Stop making so much noise!" Xiaolin didn't care about what you said and shouted angrily: "Thanks to you, I am in such a miserable situation! Besides, why did you set the reward to 1 million eris which I can't afford!?"
"Isn't this what you said, Xiaolin!?"
Aqua turned her head away and said unhappily.
What, it's me?
Xiaolin opened his eyes wide and looked at Aqua in disbelief, while Chris frowned in confusion and asked him, "Xiaolin, did you say that?"
His tone was slightly hostile. That's right, after all, it's okay to have encountered something like that, but Xiaolin always claims that he is innocent. If the person who issued the task is really Xiaolin, then Chris was completely deceived.
However, Kobayashi did not say such a thing, so he quickly waved his hand to indicate that it was not the case.
"No, no, no, I didn't say that!"
"Indeed! You said that if we can't catch Chris, we might as well give her one million Eris directly! That's why I loaned you money to launch this mission!"
Aqua said so.
"Ah, could it be——"
Xiao Lin suddenly remembered that yesterday, after seeing the impeccable Chris, he did subconsciously say this sentence -
"So, if there's still no way out, we might as well just give her one million Eris. It's much better than what we have now."
——Indeed, he said this.
However, he was sure that he said this because he was in a hurry and his mind was not thinking straight, not because he really wanted to catch Chris.
"Is that the one..."
"It looks like there is a clue."
"It would be better to just give him one million Eris instead of the current situation..."
Xiaolin said this to Chris with a helpless look on his face.
Chris herself seemed to understand, and she subconsciously said, "Could it be that the cause of this matter is that because I said I wanted to apologize, one million Eris would be enough?"
"Ah, that's right."
Xiao Lin felt even more helpless.
Now even Chris couldn't blame Xiaolin. After all, the source of this sentence came from her joke, but at the same time Chris felt something was wrong.
"But, it doesn't match up with what Aqua-senpai said, does it?"
“Because it’s Aqua, she only chooses keywords that are beneficial to herself, and it’s more likely that she interpreted my words for her own benefit…”
"Ahahaha, I see."
Obviously Chris also understood what kind of person Aqua is. After hearing what Kobayashi said, he laughed with relief. If she could be more normal, she wouldn't be called a stupid goddess.
"Aqua," Kobayashi said to the calm and composed goddess. "You specifically issued the mission because you wanted one million Eris, right?"
“Because if we catch Chris without any guarantee, Krillin won’t even give him one Eris.” Aqua said as a matter of course, “Because you’re a stingy person.”
"Well, that last sentence is redundant."
Kobayashi snorted. Indeed, even if Aqua really caught Eris, he would not pay Aqua an Eris without any guarantee, and she would just work for nothing. But——
"By the way, have you ever thought that I would run away with Chris?"
"I'm not stupid either." Aqua puffed out her chest proudly and said confidently, "Xiaolin would do this. It was all within my calculations!"
"Hey... this is a rare plan for you. It's great." Xiao Lin praised perfunctorily, without any sincerity at all, and then asked: "It's great, and then what?"
"Then what?"
Aqua looked at Kobayashi in confusion.
"No, that's what I'm saying!" Xiao Lin was frightened by her idiocy and asked anxiously, "Even if I run away with Chris, what do you want to do?"
"I thought you would be chased out of the city and escape to this area, and then come here without paying attention--"
"You caught me?"
"Hehehe, even I am shocked by this perfect operation!"
Aqua seemed to think that she was very smart, and even said so complacently. However, Kobayashi just thought she was an idiot. This plan undoubtedly had many loopholes and too many unreasonable places. In the end, this perfect plan ended in failure.
“Haaaa…” Xiaolin sighed deeply and said helplessly: “I really want to exchange such a stupid goddess with Lady Eris…”
“Ah, ahahaha…”
Chris, the real Goddess Eris, who was now disguised as a thief girl, smiled awkwardly and said, "I think even the Goddess Eris would not be willing to join Xiaolin's team."
A disguised and euphemistic refusal.
That's right. After all, he had taken off Chris's underwear and almost took off her tights just now, leaving her running naked on the street. It was obvious that she didn't want to be in the same team with him.
In the end, all that was left was a new favor owed to Eris. I came to this world to defeat the Demon King, so why did it turn out like this...
By the way, how long will this boring adventure last?
The next few days were peaceful.
Today, when Xiaolin was walking on the street, she suddenly saw Chris and subconsciously greeted her.
"Chris...?"
"Uuuuuuu..."
I don’t know why, but I’m being strictly guarded. Have I done something bad again?
Just as Xiaolin was thinking this, Chris asked quietly, "You didn't tell anyone about that, did you?"
"What was that thing?" Kobayashi pretended not to know and wanted to forget about it, but Chris mistakenly thought that Kobayashi was deliberately teasing her and wanted to tease her.
"You, you see... the underwear and leggings were... taken off..."
This person is too naive!
Xiao Lin couldn't get away with it, so he deliberately shouted, "Ah, underwear!"
"Don't, don't be so loud!" Chris shouted anxiously, and then looked around for fear that someone would hear them. But in fact, the pedestrians on the street did not stop because of the conversation between the two.
Xiao Lin spread his hands and said, "This matter concerns your dignity. How could I possibly spread it around?"
"No, not at all. It has nothing to do with dignity!"
Chris didn't want to take it too seriously, so Xiaolin raised his eyebrows and said, "What? Is that so...Okay, then we must gossip about this tonight!"
"It does matter, it does matter!" Chris quickly hugged his arms and cried, "So, don't chat casually! Please!"
"Just kidding, just kidding!"
Xiaolin waved his hands with a smile on his face.
"You're lying, the look in your eyes says it's true!"
Chris didn't believe it at all.
Well, that's indeed true.
Kobayashi planned to spread the news if Chris didn't care - but was stopped by Chris in the end.
“Haha…” Chris sighed deeply and said, “Why did I let it slip? If it weren’t for the one million eris incident, wouldn’t it have been better?”
That's right, the cause of that incident was Chris's joke, otherwise Kobayashi wouldn't have been so anxious and Aqua wouldn't have taken it seriously.
"I say, let's stop with the underwear and leggings thing." Xiao Lin wanted to change the subject, which was considered a considerate move for her, and said, "You are also uncomfortable talking about such a topic, right?"
“Haha…yes…”
Chris sighed deeply.
"So, what are you doing?" Xiao Lin looked at the thief girl in front of him and asked curiously, "Are you planning to repair your leggings?"
"You are harassing me..." Chris rolled his eyes in annoyance and said, "No, I'm going to buy some stuff..."
Don’t you even feel like complaining? It’s so boring.
Xiao Lin also sighed secretly.
There is no point in teasing Chris, who has no soul for sarcasm.
Chris spread his hands and said, "I ran out of a lot of stuff during the previous mission. So I came here to shop to replenish it."
"Oh, it's actually possible." Xiao Lin nodded and said, "Then let me go shopping with you."
"It's okay, what happened so suddenly?"
"Just out of curiosity."
Towards Chris who looked puzzled, Xiaolin smiled and said, "What is the life of the thief Chris like on his day off?"
"I don't think there's the part you're expecting."
"That doesn't matter! Okay, let's go!"
Xiaolin urged Chris.
Then the two of them went shopping in various shops in the town.
"As for potions, that's it. The next step is..."
Chris kept thinking about her equipment, and when Xiaolin saw the things she bought, he sighed helplessly and said, "Well... How should I put it, it's really ordinary."
"I say, what on earth do you expect from my shopping? I won't do anything weird."
"But if it's a thief, of course he would quietly take the medicine..."
"That's a crime!"
Chris interrupted him loudly, but Xiaolin said nonchalantly, "Also, cheating the money of the fledgling adventurer..."
"I will never do anything that deviates from humanity."
"But didn't you cheat me out of my money?"
"That's to teach you skills, right? Besides, isn't it your specialty, Xiaolin, to do things that are out of human nature?"
"Oh, the patents and everything are here."
Kobayashi felt a little unhappy when Chris said that.
However, Chris was even more upset. She pouted and said, "Who is the person who forcibly took the underwear and then asked for money?"
"it's me……"
"Who is the one who waved it around to show off to everyone?"
"That's me too..."
"Are you really human?"
Kobayashi felt ashamed when Chris said this. It was obvious that this sentence was directed at Sato Kazuma, so why did it become him instead?
Chris sighed and said, "Really? That's why you're called scum, trash, and a beast."
"No one has ever said that! And aren't these words all about Satou Kazuma? They have nothing to do with me, right!?"
Xiao Lin quickly denied it loudly.
