#412 - Fairy Black Cat
The unexpected situation stunned everyone.
"Zun Zun, what's going on?" Kazuma Sato asked hurriedly, "What was that black orb just now? Why was Wolbach swallowed up?"
"Should we run away now? Are we safe? I say, while Wolbach is trapped, let's get out of here quickly."
Not only him, but others also spoke up.
Aqua even planned to slip away at this opportunity. Clearly, this fellow had always disliked Wolbach and mocked her with words, but now she has become timid and fearful.
"How should I say it… Actually, there are very deep reasons for this, but at least we don't need to run away."
"So, is it safe now?"
Although they didn't know what happened, after hearing that they were safe, Kazuma Sato and the others breathed a heavy sigh of relief.
It must be said that Wolbach was very oppressive.
Fighting a real goddess is more troublesome than fighting the Demon King, even if this goddess is just an unknown small character… in Aqua's eyes.
"H-Hey, Zun Zun?"
"What's wrong, Megumin?"
"Wolbach was swallowed up, so what about… no, what about Chomusuke?"
"Ah, no good!"
Referring to the time with the Magic Flame Dragon, when her Chomusuke swallowed it, it completely disappeared.
Perhaps Wolbach is the same.
"No!" Zun Zun shouted quickly, "Black, you can't eat her, spit her out — — — —"
The huge light sphere, which had already expanded to 10 meters, seemed to hear Zun Zun's cry. After a clear pause, the entire light sphere shook constantly, as if ruminating like a camel, and then — —
Ptooey!
A black kitten and a little girl were spat out.
"…Eh?" x6
This time, everyone was stunned.
The huge light sphere also seemed to stabilize after expelling the impurities from its body, constantly shrinking and condensing into a black egg, slowly falling from the sky.
Zun Zun caught it.
Kazuma Sato and the others couldn't bear it any longer. He hurriedly asked, "Zun Zun, what exactly is going on? Explain it to us quickly!"
"Yeah, yeah, was Wolbach defeated? By the way, don't we need to run away?" Aqua also said in a panic.
Darkness, Megumin, and Yunyun did not ask, but they also looked over.
"Yes, how should I explain it…"
In order to prevent more troublesome situations from occurring, Zun Zun did not play her memories, but simply talked about the three shrines, and under conscious guidance, it was classified as a trial.
"I see, so that's Vanir…"
They also knew that Zun Zun would be teleported away every once in a while, so they didn't need too much explanation and convinced themselves.
"That huge fire dragon is also…?"
"Ah, the result of the spirit's bloom."
This time, the events that occurred were almost the same as when they fought the Magic Flame Dragon before.
She casually summoned the Spirit Dragon.
"Oh, oh, oh, can it shrink!?"
Aqua played with the Spirit Dragon. She didn't know if it was because she was a true goddess, but the Spirit Dragon was particularly attached to her. Under the guidance of the talent goddess, the Spirit Dragon would soon perform the talent of spitting fire.
A dignified existence of the four great spirit level…
Everyone felt speechless.
"Hey, Aqua, can I trouble you to heal Chomusuke?"
At this time, Megumin held the black kitten that had been spat out in her arms, looking at it with a worried expression, and asked the team's priest to help heal it.
"Eh — — — —"
Aqua had a very unwilling expression.
After knowing that Chomusuke was the incarnation of the goddess in charge of Sloth and Violence, and that she had merged with the other party, she obviously had a very strong resistance.
But under Kazuma Sato's chop, she still healed Chomusuke… and Wolbach.
The little loli Wolbach no longer had the pressure of a goddess. Her tightly closed eyes also frowned, making people feel a little distressed.
If the crowd hadn't seen her being spat out with their own eyes, no one would have been able to associate her with a goddess.
"She actually shrunk to this extent…"
"Is she Wolbach?"
"No, no, no, under this kind of situation, only Wolbach herself is left, right?"
They were a little unsure.
"That's right!" Kazuma Sato seemed to have thought of something and asked, "Hey, Aqua! Can't you see through Wolbach's godhood? Is she Wolbach?"
"Let me see… um um… I see, I see."
This time, Aqua made a telescope gesture with both hands and nodded repeatedly after carefully looking at the unconscious little loli.
"Hey, what exactly is going on?"
"Wolbach is no longer the goddess in charge of Sloth and Violence. She is just a simple goddess."
"…What do you mean?"
"It means that although she still has godhood, she no longer has the power of a goddess."
"What, just like Aqua."
"Wait a minute, Kazuma, what do you mean by just like me!? Are you trying to pick a fight? Okay, I must tell you properly how my title of Goddess of Wisdom and Water came about!"
Although Kazuma Sato scoffed at Aqua's combat power, she did have control over water.
Whether it was the great flood summoned when fighting the Dullahan, or the purification of water sources in Alcanretia, the City of Water, it was no exaggeration to say that she was a true goddess.
"So, Wolbach is no longer an evil god?"
"Kazuma, are you an idiot? If you don't control the emotions of Sloth and Violence, you're not an evil god."
"I don't want to be told that by you!"
Even though Aqua looked as if it was a matter of course, everyone still couldn't accept it. After all, Wolbach had clearly said that she was only in charge of these bad emotions and was not a true evil god.
The reason she was called an evil god was purely the fault of the Axis Church. Besides, compared to the easy-going Wolbach, Aqua was more like an evil god, okay?
"Wait a minute, everyone." Darkness said as if she had thought of something, "Since Wolbach no longer controls the emotions of Sloth and Violence, where did they go?"
She said that, but her gaze fell on the black egg that Zun Zun was holding in her hands.
The others were the same.
Obviously, everyone believed that these powers had been stripped away.
"Could it be that Zun Zun has become an evil god?"
"Kazuma, are you an idiot? Zun Zun doesn't have godhood, so of course she's not a god."
"I don't want to be told that by you!"
Kazuma Sato rolled his eyes unhappily.
Besides, this guy's judgment criteria were really confusing, but after thinking about it carefully, it seemed that it was indeed the case.
"Hey, what should we do about Wolbach?"
"Well…"
Everyone looked at the little girl who was being taken care of by Darkness again. Her eyes were still tightly closed and there was no sign of waking up at all.
In fact, when Aqua was healing her just now, she didn't find any wounds or anything.
And according to her.
Wolbach's godhood was unbelievably pure. The powers of Sloth and Violence had been completely stripped away, just like restoring her to the factory settings — no, Wolbach wouldn't have godhood in the first place.
"By the way, did we successfully defeat her?"
"I say, let's kill her now. That's a bounty of 300 million eris, 300 million, okay!?"
"Stop it!"
Kazuma Sato held down Aqua's shoulder.
Indeed, Wolbach, the executive of the Demon King's army, had a bounty of up to 300 million eris. Even because she had brought great panic to the fortress before, the bounty had increased a lot.
If the victory or defeat was decided in battle, then there was nothing to be done, but under the current circumstances, it was not easy to make a move.
"No, there's no need to worry about that."
"Zun Zun?"
"Wolbach has already been defeated."
Zun Zun showed her adventurer card to her companions, and the name of Wolbach, the executive of the Demon King's army, was clearly displayed in the monster subjugation column.
"Oh, oh, oh — — — —!"
"That's great!"
Kazuma Sato and Aqua cheered.
The adventurer card could not be faked, so the guild would also look at the adventurer card when judging whether the adventurer had completed the task. However, the same also meant that they did not need to subjugate the current Wolbach.
In other words, they could exploit loopholes.
Kazuma Sato teased: "Aqua, you don't have any thoughts of wanting to subjugate Wolbach now, do you?"
"Oh dear, Mr. Kazuma. I wouldn't have such thoughts, I'm a goddess, you know." Aqua covered her mouth and smiled like a middle-aged woman, and then said, "I'm going to wait for her to wake up so I can mock her properly."
She would never let go of the opportunity to show her true colors, which was the nature of the idiot goddess.
Anyway, the matter ended smoothly.
While everyone was smiling happily, they suddenly heard a strange noise.
Crack — —
They saw that the surface of the black egg that Zun Zun was holding had several cracks, and then a small animal jumped out of the egg.
"Meow~!"
A meow made people's hearts melt.
A black kitten, slightly smaller than Chomusuke, appeared in front of everyone.
It was almost exactly the same as Chomusuke, with the same jet-black body, the same slightly glowing eyes, and the same black kitten with small bat wings. The only difference was that the pattern on Chomusuke's forehead was a cross, while the pattern on the newborn kitten's forehead was a strange pattern.
Upon closer inspection, it was exactly the same as one of the three patterns on the back of Zun Zun's hand.
"Meow ~ ~ ~"
The black kitten stretched lazily, its eyes flashing with human-like curiosity and agility.
"Ah, so cute!"
The girls all wanted to reach out, but they were all dodged by the black kitten. It nimbly jumped onto Zun Zun's shoulder, unwilling to be touched by others.
That's right, it's a spirit after all.
Even if its appearance was that of a black kitten, it would not be close to ordinary people. But when the kitten saw Aqua, it hesitated slightly and jumped into her arms.
"…Eh?"
"That's unexpected."
"Yes, I didn't expect it to be close to Aqua."
You should know that Chomusuke belonged to everyone except Aqua, but now this kitten only allows Aqua to be close to it, inexplicably reversing the polarity.
Aqua hugged the kitten in a daze for a long time, and suddenly shouted, "Everyone, let's raise it!"
"Hey!"
This guy hadn't thought at all that this kitten controlled the bad emotions of Sloth and Violence.
