Me, a priest? How could that be!

Chapter 41 Let me see how many kung fu cars you have.

When Mikami Hibiki appeared at the guild, many people whispered among themselves, saying things like he was "the third-ranked adventurer in the kingdom" and "the pride of Axel."

It must be said that he is quite popular.

Indeed, Hibiki is handsome and has a strong sense of justice. As a "sword master" with the strongest attack power, he has almost no rivals and can be considered a rising star.

But I don't know why.

Charlotte felt somewhat displeased.

Looking down at the swordsman who was reaching out his hand to him, he frowned slightly, but ultimately shook hands with him to save face.

"I'm Charlotte, what can I do for you?"

"Yes. I'll get straight to the point. The goddess Eris sent me here. She wants you to team up with me to defeat the Demon King."

...Eris?

Charlotte knew that the goddess had the ability to enter dreams. For example, the Holy Armor that Yujian Xiangye would obtain not long after was given to him by Eris after entering his dream, with the purpose of helping him to defeat the Demon King.

But I am also one of the contributors.

Isn't this something wrong?

Could it be that Eris was unhappy because he joined the Axis cult, and that's why he wanted to switch tactics?

After all, Mikami Hibiki is a die-hard Aqua fan, and a particularly extreme one at that.

Hmm. Very likely.

Then, Mikami Hibiki spoke up again, saying, "The Goddess Eris said that you and I are both reincarnated beings, and you have great potential. You are second to none in both magic and spirit, and you are a born high priest. In that case, let's team up to defeat the Demon King. Our team is in need of a high priest."

"I do not want."

"Now the team only needs to find the Archmage. We really need to go to the Crimson Demon Village and ask the Crimson Demons there for help. With their help, we'll have a much better chance of defeating the Demon King."

"I said I don't want it, are you deaf?!"

"...What?"

"I don't want to team up with you guys!"

Charlotte was very tough.

If it's not his type, just say no!

To deal with a narcissistic teenager who likes to talk to himself and is always immersed in his own fantasies, you should refuse him decisively from the beginning, otherwise he will feel that he has a chance and keep pestering you.

However, Mikami looked at Charlotte, hesitated for a moment, and then said hesitantly:

"...Rebellious phase?"

"Watch out or I'll beat you up!"

It's not that I'm angry about being implied to be young, but rather that the object of my rebellion is different.

Although Charlotte believed that Chris was someone who could be his mother, he wouldn't listen to everything she said. He was also sure that Eris's dream visitation was just an invitation, not a forced one; otherwise, he would be the one to enter the dream.

therefore--

"I don't think there's any future in teaming up with you, and besides, the Demon King is too dangerous, so I won't agree. That's all."

"……Yeah."

Mikami Kyouya glanced at Charlotte, sighed with disappointment, and said, "I rushed to Axel after receiving the revelation, only to find that the goddess's high hopes were placed on a hopeless coward. How disappointing. Fine, since you're unwilling, I won't force you. Just pretend I was never here."

After saying that, he turned to leave.

Charlotte pouted and said, "Yes, yes, I'm a coward. I wish you a safe journey to defeat the Demon King."

It's quite sarcastic and weird.

This statement completely ignited the anger of the two girls who were following Mikami Hibiki.

"Wait, what kind of attitude is this?!"

"Hibiki invited you out of kindness, and not only are you ungrateful, but you also look down on me like this! Who could you possibly be talking about!"

They shouted their accusations.

Charlotte was already considering using the "gender equality punch" on this incessantly chattering, idiotic woman.

"Don't do that, Clemeria, Fio," Mikami Hibiki stopped the two, saying, "We just need to do our own thing and don't need to care about what others think."

"No, Hibiki, he's clearly humiliating you for being defeated by a higher-level demon!"

"We can't let this go; we have to teach him a lesson!"

When will they ever stop?

Charlotte couldn't be bothered to humiliate Yujian Xiangye. Besides, didn't you guys expose this yourselves?

However, Mikami Hibiki said with a troubled expression, "I am a master swordsman, and Charlotte is a high priest. It would be too much to bully her if we were to fight."

"Wait a minute, I can't pretend I didn't hear that!" Charlotte interrupted him. "You think you can beat me?"

"certainly."

Without hesitation, Yu Jianxiangye...

The two stood and sat, staring at each other, with what seemed like crackling lightning between them, neither willing to concede defeat.

Charlotte seemed to know.

Why do I dislike him?

It wasn't out of jealousy like Sato Kazuma's, but rather Mitsurugi Hibiki's attitude. He wasn't genuinely inviting Charlotte to join the team; he was merely going through the motions because of Eris's revelation.

in other words.

Yujian Xiangye does not approve of Xia Luo.

The atmosphere in one corner of the union gradually became tense, and the pressure began to rise. Clementia and Fiona swallowed hard, watching them nervously.

half an hour.

Mikami Hibiki spoke again, "Then could you come out with me for a bit? It won't take up too much of your time."

What?

Charlotte's lips twitched.

For some reason, whenever he heard Yūken Hibiki's handsome face utter those words, a bizarre image would involuntarily pop into his mind: the Demon Sword Hero foaming at the mouth and collapsing to the ground the next second.

However, this silence seemed to cause Mikami Hibiki to misunderstand, and he went further, provoking her:

Are you scared?

Come on!

You arrogant brat, let me see just how much punches you have today!

The fight between the two attracted attention from a small circle.

However, everyone believed that this would be a one-sided battle, and the winner would definitely be Miken Hibiki, after all, the "Sword Master" and the "High Priest" were far apart in terms of combat power.

Because the gap was too large, the adventurers in the guild didn't take it seriously, and didn't even have the idea of ​​opening a betting pool.

Unfortunately, Charlotte was unaware of this.

He missed a chance to make a lot of money.

……

The two arrived at the back street of the union.

This is where adventurers resolve their disputes.

Adventurers are a group of hot-blooded guys, and there will always be times when they clash, have friction, and don't like each other.

Fighting in the guild hall would damage tables and chairs and result in unnecessary compensation, so over time the guild's backstreet became the best place to resolve disputes.

The two stood facing each other from a distance.

One stands at this end, the other at the other.

Mikami Hibiki drew the demonic sword from his waist and said, "Rest assured, I will not use Gram's abilities."

"I don't mind."

"You misunderstand. Gram is very powerful. I just don't want to damage the houses in the town, so I'll hold back."

"Heh. I hope you can still be this at ease later." Charlotte put on her boxing gloves and took out a dagger, saying, "You don't mind me using this, do you?"

"Of course, please feel free to make yourself at home."

Mikami Hibiki seemed completely unconcerned.

Charlotte toyed with her dagger while glancing at the two women standing beside her, gesturing, "Then you two can give the initial signal, okay? By the way... you two aren't cheating, are you?"

"No way!"

"Who do you think you are!"

They shouted angrily.

Mikage Hibiki also spoke up, pleading, "I'm begging you, Clemeria, Fiona."

"Yes, leave it to us!" X2

Isn't this discrimination a bit too obvious?

"So..."

A coin bounced high into the air and then fell rapidly to the ground with a crisp sound.

"Battle begins!"
