The legend of the Crimson Demon clan started from Suqing

#65 - Frowning, he quietly retreated behind the crowd.

When the light dissipated, a lively and bustling scene came into view.

The streets were filled with voices and the sounds of carriages, with a constant stream of pedestrians, and vendors hawking their wares on both sides of the road. The surrounding area was full of novel buildings, with a harmonious blend of blue and white that unconsciously relaxed the tense mood.

“Oh, oh, is this the City of Water, Alcanretia?”

Zun Zun's eyes lit up.

This was a real city.

It wasn't that the Crimson Demon Village was bad, but it was only natural to be surprised when suddenly coming from a rural area where one had lived for more than ten years to a more developed big city.

Youyou subconsciously moved closer to Zun Zun, feeling a little unaccustomed to the surrounding crowd.

Leaving the teleportation array, the two strolled along the street. They were like bumpkins visiting a grand garden, finding everything novel.

The surrounding vendors were energetically promoting their goods to the pedestrians on the street.

“Customers! Hot spring steamed buns! Delicious hot spring steamed buns, won’t you try some!”

“Agar slime! Ladies and gentlemen, this will turn into a jelly drink when you add hot water and cool it down, it's especially delicious! The grape flavor is on sale now, come and grab it!”

“Skewers! Come and taste the delicious skewers!”

Zun Zun and Youyou were leisurely sightseeing.

Just like in an RPG game, how could you not explore when you arrive at a new map? Moreover, the Axis Order at this time wasn't as rampant and troublesome as they would become later, so if they missed this opportunity, they would never have it again.

“Zun Zun, there are so many people over there, what happened?”

“I don’t know, let’s go take a look.”

It was human nature to be a busybody; how could they not join in the fun?

However, Zun Zun immediately regretted it after squeezing in, because there were three Axis Order members in the crowd putting on a performance. The performance was good, very wonderful, as could be seen from the cheers of the surrounding audience, but—

Seeing the crowd gathering, the Axis Order members began to shout loudly, recruiting people to join the order.

“Do you want to join the Axis Order! Come and join the Axis Order together!”

“Joining the Axis Order has all sorts of benefits, such as becoming a talented performer like us, and being loved by undead monsters!”

“You can also find true love with your bros!”

Zun Zun frowned, pulling Youyou back behind the crowd.

Becoming a talented performer was acceptable, but being loved by undead monsters was a bit of a trap, and what was with finding true love with bros? Are you a proper church? What, it's the Axis Order? Never mind, then.

“Zun Zun, what’s wrong?”

“Nothing, I’m just a little hungry. Let’s go buy something to eat.” Zun Zun didn’t plan to get involved with the Axis Order, whose members had problems with their brains.

Returning to the snack street, the two bought skewers and sat down on a park bench to rest, but Youyou seemed a little distracted.

“Youyou, are you worried about Megumin?”

“Eh? N-no… That, that, I’m just afraid Megumin will be in danger, what if she accidentally runs into bad people…!”

Where did you get the mentality of an old mother?

She only arrived half a day earlier than us.

Having his fiancée thinking about someone else, and a girl at that, made Zun Zun feel a little complicated.

“Don’t worry, we’ll find her soon.”

“…Really?”

“Yeah, we just need to go to the Adventurers' Guild.”

Every town had an Adventurers' Guild, and adventurers had to register at the Adventurers' Guild upon arriving in each town.

It wasn't to activate a card, but to register like going abroad in his previous life. Only by registering would they be recognized by the guild, and only then could they accept quests posted in the guild.

They arrived at the Adventurers' Guild.

The two were warmly greeted by a counter lady with very broad pectoral muscles, but their request to register as adventurers was rejected.

Simply because Zun Zun and Youyou’s levels were too low.

One was level 8, and the other was level 10.

Unlike Axel, the starting town, the monsters around Alcanretia were very strong, so there were higher level requirements for adventurers who came here to do quests. Even though Zun Zun and Youyou were Crimson Demons and both Arch-Mages who had learned advanced magic, it was still not enough.

However, they also received good news.

That was that Megumin—a red-eyed, black-haired little girl holding a staff, wearing a cloak and a mage's hat—had indeed come to register as an adventurer in the morning, but like Zun Zun and the others, she had been rejected because her level was too low.

Walking out of the guild.

Youyou was happy to know Megumin’s whereabouts, but also disappointed that they hadn’t found her.

Just as Zun Zun was saying that they should stroll around the town and maybe they would happen to run into Megumin, Youyou unexpectedly said: “Let’s go to the town’s guard station first.”

“Oh, oh… Alright.”

Before the two set off, the Sister Who Will Be Mine Forever had given them a letter, saying that it concerned the crisis that Alcanretia was about to face, and she hoped that they could hand it over to the guard station that managed the town’s security, so that they could be prepared sooner.

Zun Zun knew the content of this letter, and he also knew that this letter would cause some misunderstandings, but he still decided to hand this letter over to the guard station.

For no other reason.

As long as it was a request from the Sister Who Will Be Mine Forever, he would even conquer the world for her!

They arrived at the guard station.

At first, the two were rejected when they said they wanted to see the captain of the guard station. They said that the captain of the guard station was not someone that anyone could see, but when Zun Zun announced that he was the son of a diviner, they were immediately warmly welcomed. Zun Zun still preferred their arrogant and unruly attitude from just now.

In addition, despite his parents always being away from home and being rather unreliable, their reputation as diviners was quite useful.

After explaining their intentions, the older sister of the guard station immediately said that they would take this matter seriously, because this was the prediction of the Sister Who Will Be Mine Forever—a diviner comparable to a god—and they had to take it seriously, not to mention that it concerned the claws of the Demon King’s army.

After eating and drinking their fill at the guard station, the sky had gradually darkened. It was no longer possible to find Megumin today, so they planned to find an inn to rest and continue their search tomorrow.

But just as they were walking on the road, a declaration came from afar.

“—Hahaha, you didn’t expect this, did you? This is my escape route!”

The soprano was extremely passionate, as if she had suddenly eaten a delicious bread when she was at her wit's end. In reality, this woman wearing a priest's robe was holding a lot of soft bread.

Behind her were two frustrated men.

“Y-you, stop right there! Don’t run!”

“Damn it! Quickly return the bread that we jointly bought for the poor!”

They were panting as they chased after the girl in front of them, but she was running so fast that they couldn’t catch up no matter how hard they tried.

Just as she accelerated around the corner, preparing to completely shake off the two people behind her, she didn't notice what was in front of her and bumped into someone.

“Ouch!”

With a cry of pain, her buttocks fell to the ground, and the bread in the bag was scattered all over the place.

“Ah… Ah! My bread!”

She hurriedly picked up the bread that was stained with dirt, muttering something about “it’s okay within three seconds,” while glaring fiercely at the person in front of her.

“You bastard…!”

As the gentle voice came, a hand was extended in front of her. But she was completely speechless, because the person in front of her was a super invincible beautiful boy! …Girl?

Although she was wearing men's clothing, she was so beautiful that she couldn't quite tell. But, what was going on? This person made her heart beat faster!
