Chapter 498
In the darkness, Chrissy was breathing heavily, and she seemed to have some kind of realization, as if she was crying, staring at Igarashi with misty eyes.
"Really, you can't be careless at all. You are a bad guy. I obviously found out a long time ago, but you still showed up stupidly."
Chris couldn't help but pull her shirt down, as if she was afraid that Igarashi would steal her underwear.
"Ahem, let's talk about things first. You came here specially for a night raid. You really have something important to tell me, right?"
"It's not a night attack!"
Unwilling to defend herself, Chris told Igarashi the whole story.
In this world, there are super powerful equipment and magic items called artifacts. The artifacts have different effects, and all of them are terrible. In order to prevent the artifacts from falling into the hands of people with bad intentions after the original owner of the artifacts dies, Chris became a righteous thief. As for what is known to more people, stealing the wealth of unscrupulous nobles and giving it to orphanages is not her main business.
There are many flaws in Chris's words. The most obvious one is that her way of acting without asking for anything in return is really not like a risk-taker.
After taking a slight breath, Chris, sitting beside Igarashi's bed, swayed her legs and continued.
"Then among my thief skills, I have the treasure detection skill that can find the location of rare treasures, so I used that skill to investigate most of the nobles in the royal capital, and also took away some unclean ones. money."
"You want me to help you find it?"
"Yes!"
Chrissy kept nodding.
The artifacts in this world are equivalent to weaker world-class props in the world of the King of the Undead. For people whose power level is not high enough, they are indeed unstoppable. It is not an exaggeration to call them a scourge that disrupts the world.
However, Igarashi can easily take out a bunch of such things and make many.
"I already know the mission content, but what about the mission reward?"
"Eh?!"
"You know, right? Of course, adventurers must be rewarded for accepting tasks. At my current level, money is no longer very important. Chris, do you have anything else valuable?"
Igarashi was hinting, looking directly at Chris.
"I, I understand, I will withdraw today, and I will come to discuss it with you tomorrow!"
Chrissy ran out crying. If it weren't for the early morning when people are most sleepy, the guard at the door would have been asleep. Even if Chrissy was good at it, her moderate cry would have been noticed by the guard. .
When it was just dawn, Igarashi immediately felt a call, a call from the goddess, which had been brewing for a long time.
Obeying the call, he stood in the center of the temple, where the goddess Eris was sitting and watching, silent.
"Uh, I shouldn't be dead, right?"
Igarashi's question made Eris, who seemed to be in a daze, come back to her senses. She blushed and said suddenly.
"Sexual harassment is bad."
If you think about it, the goddess can see what happens on the ground. Even if Igarashi doesn't know that Chris and Eris are the same person at this moment, he won't think what she said is strange, and maybe he will sincerely repent.
"No, it's definitely not sexual harassment. Are you talking about Chris? I just don't know the other person's identity and I'm just treating a thief with vigilance."
Looking at the pretentious Igarashi, Eris sighed and scratched his cheek in embarrassment.
"Really, the sexual harassment is getting more and more excessive. I still don't admit it. I will only forgive you once. Please restrain yourself from now on."
"Grateful!"
Igarashi didn't expect that Eris would forgive him so easily. She is obviously a goddess, and she is such a kind goddess.
"Let's stop talking about the ill-intentioned words. I have a favor to ask of you."
"Understood! It's a special mission assigned by the royal heroine, the goddess Eris. What's the specific content?"
"...Mr. Igarashi, the believer you sexually harassed revealed some information to you, right? There are some special artifacts that Aqua-senpai handed over to the reincarnated people. Because the owner died and wandered in this world."
"I heard that if the owner of an artifact is chosen, other than the owner, the effectiveness of the artifact will be greatly reduced."
Igarashi pretended to be concentrating on thinking, and seriously shared Eris' worries.
"This explanation is correct. The divine weapon can only exert its original power in the hands of the person it is given to. Otherwise, the magic sword that can cut everything will become a stronger ordinary sword and a staff that can induce infinite magic power. , it can only speed up magic recovery, but some artifacts may still have a big impact even if their effects are weakened."
Eris revealed all her worries and then looked at Igarashi expectantly.
"Find the artifact and then hand it over to Aqua-senpai for sealing. This job cannot be mentioned to anyone other than a trusted companion. Since people other than the owner can also exert the weakening effect of the artifact, it is very possible. Someone appears who is plotting against the owner of the artifact."
Eris squeezed Igarashi's hand seriously, her beautiful eyes full of anticipation.
"Can I ask you to recover the artifact?"
When ordinary people see the goddess begging them like this, they agree even if they go up mountains of swords and under seas of fire, but Igarashi...
"I ask for a kiss from Eris, otherwise I really don't have the confidence to complete such an arduous task."
Chapter 687 Aqua is gentle? nonexistent!
Then Eris actually blushed and came to Igarashi's side, touching the side of his face and disappearing.
"Okay, okay?!"
Seeing Eris whose head seemed to be smoking, Igarashi did not continue to embarrass her. He nodded and was about to say something, but Eris hurriedly sent him back.
When Igarashi opened his eyes, he saw Aqua looking at him with "concern" in her eyes. What did she want to do with her hand? Could it be that she wanted to touch her face? I didn't expect Aqua to be so gentle.
At that moment, a moving emotion brewed in Igarashi's chest. Aqua spoke, and she retracted the hand that wanted to use the summoning water magic on Igarashi's face to wake him up. .
"Hey, get up quickly and go shopping for souvenirs with me! What a lazy guy, you got up even later than me."
Igarashi originally thought that Aqua was worried about him living alone in the villa, so he came over to visit. As expected, Aqua's emotional intelligence cannot be overestimated.
Aqua is the goddess of water. She has a special liking for various liquids. Wine is one of them. Her purification ability will not affect what she pours into her mouth. She likes drinking very much. It is a so-called souvenir. Most of them wanted to buy wine from the royal capital.
"I will give you a bottle of wine. It will definitely taste better than the wine in the royal capital, or even any wine you have ever drank. On the contrary, when you return to Axel, you have to give it to me..."
Aqua behaved differently than she had imagined, and Igarashi was a little unhappy. He made the request with ulterior motives, but Aqua agreed without hesitation, without even thinking about it.
So Igarashi gave her Dungeon Encounter World, the sacred wine brewed by Soma, the god of wine.
It is a divine wine that can intoxicate people's souls. Let alone ordinary people, maybe the lich Wiz and the powerful Princess Alice will be intoxicated and become in a trance.
But Aqua, who raised her head and poured a bottle of divine wine into her mouth, did not look intoxicated at all after burping, only a little tipsy.
Maybe Aqua is not only abnormal in her brain, but also in her soul.
"Is there any more? I want more. Where did I buy it?"
