A week after the Dullahan incident...

All I can see is darkness...

Darkness everywhere...

not a single glimpse of light....

Where am I... why am I here... did the curse got me?

....

...oh wait, I'm just closing my eyes...

I opened my eyes, and saw Kazuma standing in front, while holding a pouch of eris and a broomstick for some reason

"Yawn... Good... Good morning."

Kazuma: "Morning your head! It's already afternoon!"

In the Guild

Ouch... that spanking will leave a good broomstick mark

Aqua: "Let's take a quest! Even if it's hard!"

"Huh?" 3x

Me, Kazuma, and Megumin were displeased by her request. Unlike Aqua, we still have our moneys

Aqua: "I can't stand it! I can't stand it anymore! Living in a life wrapped by debts! I want money!"

Darkness: "I, I don't have a problem with hard quests!"

"Of course you don't you damn masochist. But me, in voice of our whole member, do have a problem with hard quests."

Aqua then clings onto my feet while pleading to get a quest while crying and wailing

Aqua: "Please! Please! I'm sick of working as a part time worker! The owner always scold me everytime an item is not sold! I'll work hard! I'll work hard! Please waaah!"

Kazuma: "That's one pathetic Goddess..."

"Oi. You should help me, not make her cry even harder."

Aqua cried even harder and her grip on my legs became tighter and painful

"Hey hey calm down, our money will some time run out too. So let's go take a profitable quest."

When I said that, she stopped crying and quickly composed herself

Is she fake-crying or what? I'll make her cry even harder

Aqua: "I'll get it!"

Aqua went to the quest board to look for some quest

Megumin: "Ne, Kazuma, is it really good allowing Aqua to pick a quest? Knowing Aqua, she might pick a high-difficulty quest."

She got a point there. Aqua is Aqua, and Aqua always do what Aqua always does, which is doing horribly stupid stuff

"All right, I'll deal with her. You come here too Kazuma."

Me and Kazuma walked towards the quest board, behind Aqua

As she happily pluck off one of the quest, I forcefully took it from her, and she began wailing again. I held back her head, preventing her to cling on me

"What is this?! 'Hunting the Manticore and Griffon-The Manticore and Griffon are fighting for territory. It is dangerous to leave them alone, please hunt them both. Bounty is 500,000 eris'."

Kazuma: "You idiot! This quest is crazy hard!"

"Sigh... she almost picked a high-difficulty quest..."

Without us noticing, Aqua already pluck off another quest. It looks like a high-difficulty quest again...

Aqua: "Look at this! '- Lake purification-The lake which was one of the water sources for the town has been polluted; brutal alligators have moved into the lake. We request for someone to purify the lake. The monsters in the lake will leave after purifying it, so there is no need to fight these monsters. *Requirement: Priest with purification magic. Reward is 300,000 eris'."
