Chapter 727: Run, Aqua
"Listen up, Xiaolin!"
Duster, with tears of blood, pointed at Xiaolin and said loudly: "This is not envy, jealousy or hatred! But we will never lose to you!"
"Even if it costs me my life, I will never let you get the championship!"
Chis also echoed loudly.
"Um... you guys seem to be just envious and jealous, right?"
“Wu, wuwu… I hate Xiaolin the most waaaaaa——————”
Dust ran away crying.
Hehehe...
Didn't those guys unite to exclude me? Why am I the one crying in the end?
Kobayashi rolled his eyes.
Wiz came over and looked at the two people crying and leaving. He asked in surprise, "What happened to those two just now?"
"It seems like my name was mentioned?" Youyou asked curiously.
"Do not……"
Xiao Lin shook his head, not wanting to tell them about this and let it affect them.
"Nothing happened. Let's not talk about them anymore. Just keep doing your best in the game."
"Hmm, my stomach is starting to hurt..."
"Me too……"
Wiz and Youyou's stomachs began to ache from nervousness, and they both looked very unhappy.
"Does this really not matter?"
Xiaolin sighed.
I hope there won't be any bad developments.
Then everyone came to the outside of the town prepared by Axel, ready for the start of the competition.
"Ohhhh, there are so many people here."
Darkness sighed.
Indeed, the crowd here is much more densely populated than the vendors at the Jiedao Office. They all look ready to go, and they all look like participants in the competition.
They seem very confident.
"And basically, they're all adventurers, so they're all opponents."
Chris said with a smile.
She also seems to be looking forward to the competition, but she is not as nervous as Wiz and Youyou. I hope she can perform well.
Youyou rubbed his hands uneasily.
"Seeing this scene, it feels like it's finally going to start... I'm so nervous."
She is not used to being in crowded places, so it is understandable that she is nervous.
Hui Hui said provocatively: “Hey, hey, hey, you are such a loser, Youyou. You are getting nervous over such a small matter. Look at me. I am not nervous at all!”
Yeah, why isn't she nervous?
The stupid goddess also said with emotion: "Great, I feel the emotions are rising!"
She wants to show her skills in this sports meet.
"Well, if I don't do warm-up exercises..."
Wiz started to stretch.
Kobayashi looked at the people with different expressions and couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth.
"To sum up, are they okay?"
"Haha, I feel a little uneasy."
Darkness looked at them and began to get a little worried.
Xiao Lin looked at her and asked, "Ah, you're not getting nervous too, are you?"
"Nervous? I'm doing it!"
"Ok?"
"Anyway, with so many people staring at my swimsuit, I'll still have dirty fantasies! Nervous? I'm doing it!"
"Your idea is weird!"
I don’t understand where the boundaries of the perverted female knight are, I can only hope that she won’t go crazy at the critical moment.
"I say, Xiaolin!"
"Why?"
Looking at the stupid goddess who came over with great interest, Kobayashi inexplicably felt like not wanting to pay any attention to her.
"I'm hungry, do you have a lunch box?"
"How could there be any? Even if there is, we can't eat it until the conference is over."
"Hey, why? If you're hungry, won't you have no strength?"
The stupid goddess blamed him instead.
What a joke.
Why do I have to bring my own lunch? Are you kidding me? I'm already hungry before I even start running.
"Aqua-sama, didn't you have breakfast?"
Wiz said with concern.
Aqua said a little discouraged: "Because I overslept, I only ate a little."
You deserve it!
Who told you to only eat and sleep so late, like a kid who is so happy about the upcoming spring outing that he can't sleep.
"Ah-ah-!"
At this time, Luna, the guild counter lady, appeared at the entrance of the town. She was holding something that looked like a microphone, with two loudspeakers at her feet, and she was shouting to test the volume.
Kobayashi and the others sensed what was about to happen, and quickly got into position to look at her.
"Everyone, I kept you waiting!"
Oh, is it about time to start?
Xiaolin raised his eyebrows.
"We're about to start. Before that, please allow me to explain the rules again."
As expected, Luna began to explain the new rules.
Since it was Kobayashi's first time participating and he happened to catch the rules being changed, he listened very carefully and forced the stupid goddess next to him who was shouting that she was hungry to shut up.
Luna on the stage explains the rules.
"First, regarding the route, start from the main gate and run along the road to the lake. Please be careful not to stray from the road. If you think of taking a shortcut to reach the lake quickly, you will be disqualified by the guild, so please be sure to follow this!"
Sure enough.
Xiao Lin knew there would be this one. After all, whether it was him or someone else, they would definitely think of a shortcut or something like that.
“Also, please don’t take the long way around, because we can’t or it’s hard to judge, so you’ll also be disqualified, so please be aware.”
I see. This is something we need to pay attention to.
In general, deviation from the route will result in disqualification.
"After arriving at the lake, please change into your own swimsuit and cross the river to the other side, where the finish line is. Please be sure to change into your swimsuit. After all, it is very dangerous to enter the lake wearing heavy clothes, so please allow me to prohibit it. Also, the time to change clothes will be included in the final time, so please pay attention to this. Then, after all teams reach the finish line, the team with the fastest total time will win and win the championship prize."
That's the rule, right?
"Okay, that's enough for today! It's time to cheer up..."
Kobayashi cheered on the people behind him.
However, what I saw was the idiotic expression of the stupid goddess.
"Hey, Aqua, what's with that expression on your face?"
"I accidentally forgot."
"What did you forget?"
Seeing her expression, Kobayashi felt more and more uneasy, and then this uneasiness turned into reality in the next second.
"Swimsuit...I accidentally forgot to bring it."
"What the hell are you doing, idiot!"
Xiaolin completely collapsed.
This stupid goddess always fails at times like this. I clearly have my hopes pinned on her.
hateful!
Aqua said aggrievedly: "Because, when I left the mansion, no one told me..."
"That's because you overslept!" Xiao Lin shouted angrily, "If I had time, I would check the luggage carefully!"
“Wuwuwu… What should I do, Xiaolin? If this continues, my 20 million Eris will…”
Aqua looked very unwilling.
Xiao Lin thought for a moment and said, "In that case, why not just swim like that? Anyway, no one can see your goddess halo... No, it doesn't matter if you wear this dress, right?"
"No."
Darkness shook her head and said, “That’s dangerous, so it’s forbidden. Miss Luna just said that, right?”
"Ah, that's it."
Xiao Lin covered his forehead.
He remembered that Luna had indeed said that just now. She also said that if you don't follow the rules, you will be disqualified.
"Then why don't you just take off all your clothes..."
"Xiao Lin, you don't want to see my body, do you?"
"Wait, I also have the right to choose!"
Xiaolin doesn't want to watch it.
He refused decisively, but unexpectedly this made Aqua very angry.
"Wait, what do you mean!?" Aqua yelled angrily, "I feel offended! Apologize to me quickly!"
"I do not want!"
"Hurry up and apologize!"
The more they argued, the more intense it became.
Hui Hui couldn't stand it anymore, so she ran over and said to the two of them, "You two, now is not the time to argue, the game is about to start."
"I-I know!"
Seeing that Aqua disagreed, Kobayashi had no choice.
Let's give in here for now. After all, Aqua is the key to winning this game, so it's better not to stimulate her too much.
It’s not okay to wear clothes, and it’s not okay to not wear clothes.
Honestly, my head hurts.
"That's right! Underwear!"
“It’s better not to wear it.”
"Are you serious?"
Kobayashi was a little confused when she said this out of the blue. Now it occurred to him that the stupid goddess who hid her underwear might as well not wear any clothes.
"By the way, how about buying it somewhere else?"
"This is it!"
Huihui reminded him immediately.
Many adventurers today must have not prepared in advance, and the stall owners have seized the opportunity to prepare their own swimsuits, so they will definitely be able to buy them!
but……
"Well, I had to change clothes, so I didn't bring any valuables..."
"I only brought enough money to eat and drink at the roadside stalls."
"Me too, I didn't bring any money this time."
"me too."
After asking, I found out that they didn't bring much money with them when they went out. Damn, isn't this helpless? !
"Mr. Kobayashi, is there any trouble?"
At this time, Luna, the lady at the guild counter, saw that everyone was as anxious as ants on a hot pan, and walked over to ask curiously.
"Ah, just in time!"
When Kobayashi saw her, he clapped his hands and expressed his demands at the same time.
"Aqua, I forgot to bring my swimsuit when I came here in such a hurry. Can you postpone the start time of the game for now?"
"Um... I'm sorry, after all, I can't postpone the game due to personal reasons, so..."
"I guess so."
It's the rules after all.
Besides, Aqua wasn't qualified to have so many people waiting for her to start the game.
Xiaolin scratched his head.
Luna then said, "Well, there's still some time before the game starts. If we go back and get it now, we should be able to catch up."
"That's the only way..."
Xiaolin sighed and said to Aqua, "Okay, run, Aqua!"
“Hey——, why is it me?!”
"Because it's your swimsuit!"
I couldn't help but yell at the stupid goddess who didn't want to run.
This guy, does he understand the situation? It was her swimsuit that she forgot to bring, not someone else's swimsuit!
"Okay, stop whining and charge! For 20 million Eris!"
At Kobayashi's urging, Aqua had to run to the mansion.
Time passed little by little.
Aqua was still nowhere to be seen.
Xiaolin became impatient.
"It's too slow, really too slow! What on earth is she doing?"
"Considering the distance from the town to the mansion, there is no way to go slower."
Darkness said this with some uneasiness.
I don’t know when Aqua will come. If she can’t make it to the start of the competition—
"So everyone, are you ready?"
In front of the town gate.
Luna, the guild counter lady, shouted to everyone, "The competition will start in three minutes. Please gather in front of me, and please notify the contestants who haven't arrived yet to hurry up!"
Hearing this signal, everyone started to get agitated.
Xiaolin also became nervous.
"He was a drag at the critical moment. That guy is really a useless goddess. He is really hopeless!"
"What should we do? Should we just leave it alone?"
Huihui said this with the same concern.
Considering that it would be possible to set off first in order to save time, Chris rejected this suggestion.
"No, because the overall result of the team is more important. We can't just give up on her. If we do that, she will be forced to withdraw from the competition."
"Ah, damn it!"
"Even so, it would be very troublesome if everyone withdrew from the competition."
Wiz was also worried.
Afterwards, everyone saw a blue figure appearing from the other side of the street.
"Hahaha……"
She ran towards the crowd, panting.
It's Aqua.
Xiao Lin suddenly became excited.
"You're here, Aqua!"
"Hahaha……"
"That's great, that's amazing, luckily we made it in time!"
Kobayashi cheered for her efforts.
Aqua panted and said with some difficulty: "Isn't it? I will... strike when it's time... Ugh! But I've reached my limit. If I don't take a break... it will be difficult to compete with them. My physical strength... has reached its limit."
"Then you should take a rest..."
"Then it's time! Go!"
"...Aqua, I'm sorry, but it looks like you don't have time to rest."
Before Aqua could rest, Miss Luna shouted loudly to start, and the adventurers swarmed along the road towards the lake.
“Hey, how come——”
Aqua yelled in grievance.
Xiao Lin was also helpless, but he had no choice but to reach out to her.
"Let's go, Aqua."
"Ah! Idiot! Evil ghost! Pervert!"
"It has nothing to do with perverts!"
Xiao Lin rolled his eyes, feeling that she had missed the point. Besides, he hadn't forced her to do that.
After all, wasn't it because the stupid goddess forgot to bring her swimsuit and had to run back to get it, thus wasting her energy and not having enough time to recover her energy?
It has nothing to do with me, right?
But the competition has already started, and Kobayashi can't let her rest and waste time at the back, after all, it's the team time that is being evaluated.
So even though Aqua shouted unwillingly, she was forcibly taken away by Kobayashi.
