A Konosuba Fanfic (Megumin x Reader)

Part 5: Female Knights Lullaby

A/n: Alright its grind time. Like I said in my last chapter, I've got a lot of ideas for this fic, and volume 16 will be my test run. If things go well then, well you'll just have to wait and find out. Anyway, enjoy.

Near the entrance to the town of Axel, Megumin and Aqua looked up at the three as they boarded the carriage that Darkness quickly prepared. Since they were staying in the city, they came to see the group off while they made their final preparations for the journey. 

Aqua: You can cast create water, so water isn't an issue, but have you brought enough food with you? What about handkerchiefs and tissues? Hey, Kazuma, do you know how to set up a tent? I've heard that some people won't be able to sleep if they suddenly change pillows, so maybe it's best that you bring it along with you?

Kazuma: What are you, my mother? You don't have to worry about us. We're veteran adventurers, you know? Our levels are pretty high right now. Plus, it's not that harsh of a journey, so you really don't have to worry so much. Oh, and I don't need a pillow. 

Y/n: I'm bringing a pillow. Need the maximum amount of comfort possible, but I think you're definitely worrying too much. Its like we're just going grocery shopping, except for really strange things.

Aqua: I can't help it. I won't be going with you this time, so take care. If you get killed by a monster, I won't be able to resurrect you. Don't pick up and eat anything strange you find, okay?

Y/n: Who in their right mind would eat some random plants they found?

At this moment, Megumin turned her head away. Darkness seemed to be a little troubled by Aqua's fussing, but smiled warmly and replied. 

Darkness: Aqua, we've travelled to both Elroad and Arcanretia, remember? We're all accustomed to travelling, so relax.

Aqua: It's because a sheltered lady who knows little of the outside world like you is travelling alone with a shitty NEET that I'm worried.

Y/n: Don't worry, I'll make sure nothing crazy happens.

Aqua: Thanks Y/n.

Kazuma: Have I been betrayed?

Y/n: No.

Aqua: Oh, and Darkness, you need to be especially wary while traveling. Take care not to get assaulted.

Darkness: You don't have to worry about that. I'm a crusader, taking attacks from monsters is my job, so don't worry. I'll keep these two safe.

Aqua: What are you talking about? I'm telling to be wary of Kazuma so he doesn't assault you while you're travelling with him. Be wary of Y/n too. He might act rashly if he's not with Megumin for an extended period of time.

Kazuma&Y/n: Hey.

Darkness started fidgeting and stealing glances from the two after hearing Aqua's words, seemingly wanting to respond but unable to find the proper words. 

Megumin: Yea, you should take care not to be attacked.

Y/n: You too? What's up with this lack of trust?

Megumin: I meant take care not to be attacked by any monsters. Although, it makes me a little happy that you hate it when I'm not around...

Y/n: Don't be stupid. That's not true at all. I wouldn't assault someone because of my needs. That's why I still visit that shop.

Kazuma: Mhmm, exactly.

Megumin: *sigh* You still frequent such places?

Y/n: Naturally.
