〜Sword Art Online World〜
Kirito sighed helplessly as he watched Aqua being chased by the undead,
"As expected, Aqua's role is to attract monsters..."
Whether it was the giant frogs before, the ferocious alligators, or the undead, all of them were precisely taken care of by Aqua alone.
He had been playing games for so many years, and this was the first time he had seen someone—uh, a god!—who could taunt monsters just by standing there. Perhaps her luck was too low, automatically attracting monsters.
Asuna had a loving expression, radiating maternal glow,
"It's really not easy for Aqua-san to still be alive and well."
She speaks without thinking, has terribly bad luck, and is also an idiot! It's really thanks to Kazuma's care that she's still alive.
.....
[ While Aqua was being chased, Kazuma wasn't idle either, taking on the important task of commanding: "Megumin, can you cast explosion magic on that group of undead?!"
Megumin looked a bit troubled: "They're so scattered..."
While they were still discussing, Aqua screamed for help while leading a large group of undead knights towards Kazuma: "Waaaah! Kazuma-san—, KAZUMA!"
The adventurers gathered at the town gate immediately scattered, spreading out in all directions.
Kazuma also quickly led Aqua out of town, making sure as many undead knights as possible followed Aqua along the way: "You idiot, don't come over! Get away, I'm treating you tonight!"
Kazuma glanced at the large number of undead knights behind him, then led Aqua towards the Death Knight, jumping left and right at that instant.
"MEGUMIN, QUICK...!!"
Hearing the command, Megumin looked at this great opportunity in front of her and immediately became excited, throwing off her eye patch: "I am Megumin! The foremost magician of the Crimson Demon Clan, user of explosion magic!"
"Witness my power! EXPLOSION—!"
Accompanied by starlight that exploded like a rainbow, Megumin's signature explosion magic detonated directly in the army, and dazzling flames rose from the ground!
With the Death Knight's screams, a huge crater was created in front of the town's main gate, and all the undead knights were reduced to ashes.
The adventurers in the town all cheered: "It worked, the Crimson Demon littlegirl with a few screws loose in her head!"
"Only her name or screws loose in her head, but she still acts when she needs to!"
"I'm impressed with you, littlegirl with a few screws loose in her head!"
At this moment, Megumin, lying on Kazuma's back, had a vein popping on her forehead, growing angrier the more she listened: "Sorry, please remember those people's faces, I'll blast them next time!" ]

"Facts prove that even if all your teammates are liabilities, as long as the captain's brain works well, Kazuma's command ability is quite good!"
"No wonder, I practiced and learned explosion magic for so long without using it; it turns out all those words before were made up by you! Only one word, 'Explosion,' is real."
Everyone looked at Megumin with black lines on their faces. So, such powerful magic only required such a simple incantation.
It turns out it can be cast instantly. Why didn't you say so earlier? Why add so much drama to yourself?

Rudeus's breathing became rapid at the sight, and he tried to calm his rapidly beating heart:
"Every time I see explosion magic, it gives me an extraordinary feeling!"
That huge mushroom cloud, the crater like a meteor impact, no wonder Megumin loves explosion magic so much. With such power, who wouldn't love it!
But what's most amusing is the attitude of those adventurers. Are you praising Megumin or belittling her...
"The little girl with a few screws loose in her head, it turns out that she and the perverted Kazuma have also become widely known!"
However, those words aren't wrong; Megumin must have some kind of problem with her head to get along so well with Aqua.
.....
[ The Headless Knight, a high-ranking member of the Demon King's army, was not a mere figurehead. He slowly rose from the ruins, laughing maniacally: "Hahahaha, interesting, interesting! I shall personally be your opponent!"
Kazuma's mind raced. Megumin had no magic power left, and Aqua's magic couldn't deal a fatal blow! What should he do...?
The adventurers nearby looked at Beldia without fear: "What's there to be afraid of! The ace of this town is coming soon. Who cares if you're a high-ranking member of the Demon King's army!"
Then, several adventurers, holding their swords, charged forward as if pumped up, intending to tie down Beldia: "If we all go together, we can force him into a blind spot!"
"It seems you all wish to rush to your deaths." Beldia snorted, then threw his head into the air.
Kazuma realized something was wrong and quickly shouted: "Stop, don't go over!!"
Accompanied by an eerie light, a fiery red giant eye suddenly appeared in the sky. In just the blink of an eye, it struck down all the adventurers who were attacking him.
"Who's next!"
People who were alive just a moment ago lost their lives instantly before Kazuma, an illogical situation that made him realize the true nature of this world.
None of the adventurers present dared to make a move. Suddenly, a sharp voice came from the crowd: "Someone like you, if Mitsurugi were here, he'd cut you down with one sword!"
At these words, Kazuma's face instantly turned pale, and he broke out in a cold sweat. Mitsurugi? The one whose magic sword I stole and sold... ]
[ .....]
〜Projection of All Worlds〜
"Don't wait, your town's ace is still looking for his sword. Who knows who Kazuma sold it to."
"This Demon King's army executive has some tricks up his sleeve; he took two goddess's purification spells, plus an explosion spell, and is still incredibly fierce."
Only then did everyone realize they had underestimated this chivalrous executive. His strength was indeed formidable, and Kazuma's party, being new to the village, was no match for him.
And Mitsurugi, this tragic hero, was actually the town's ace... How could they possibly win?
Because the ace you're talking about has already been defeated by this rookie adventurer in front of you, and even his magic sword was sold.
.....
[ Darkness directly blocked in front of everyone, holding her greatsword in both hands and striking a pose, as if she was no longer a pervert, but a reliable crusader knight!
"So, until the person you speak of arrives... can you hold out!" Beldia's greatsword slashed down towards Darkness.
The moment their longswords clashed, the ground instantly caved in. Darkness, cold sweat on her face, gritting her teeth and holding on: "How dare you... How dare you treat everyone... As someone whose duty is to protect, there are some things I absolutely cannot concede!"
The deaths of the surrounding adventurers filled Darkness with anger, and uncharacteristically, with aggression: "Do you want everyone to see themselves being indecently abused under brute force?!"
"If you have the guts, try it, or rather, show me now!"
Beldia panicked immediately, no longer in a stalemate with Darkness: "What nonsense are you spouting? Others will misunderstand me!"
Although Darkness was aggressive and had great momentum, all her attacks perfectly missed.
"Ha..." Even Beldia himself was very confused.
Seeing this scene, Kazuma's face turned red. He felt ashamed for Darkness, who couldn't even hit someone standing still. How embarrassing, this child is my companion! ]
[ .....]
〜Projection of All Worlds〜
"I'm truly looking at you in a new light, perverted knight. I didn't expect you to have such determination, even though you're still a pervert."
"Holy cow, I really can't believe it! Darkness can actually contend with Beldia purely with strength."
Everyone looked at the aggressive Darkness with some admiration. At least in terms of aura, she wasn't inferior to anyone, but... why did she keep missing? This is not the time to mess up!
Thinking this, everyone became a little frantic. She was so cool just now, but the coolness didn't last three seconds.
The most incomprehensible thing is that the opponent was standing still, yet every single one of her swords landed in an unexpected place. She unleashed a torrent of attacks, but they all missed.
How did you manage such an inconceivable sword technique? Did you learn some kind of merciful sword technique? This is a bit too merciful!
