Chapter 52 – Giant Subjugation Quest #9

‘Ask for a fixed party?’

Now, is this arrogant blonde nun accepting me as a party member?
When I heard the first words, I was very surprised.
It was very rare for the nuns to propose a fixed party to adventurers.
But what followed was even more shocking.

“Excluding Rebecca-sama, just the two of us-“

What is this blonde bitch talking about now?
Why are you taking out Rebecca? The kid who is fighting well next to me.
I looked at Kate incredulously.

“I’m surprised you suggested a fixed party, but…”
“Yes, Mongma-sama.”
“What do you mean by omitting Rebecca? She’s already a member of my party. She’s agile and has a fighting spirit, so she’s a good dealer. Didn’t you see the hermit crab shoved with her shield yesterday?”
“I saw it too. I won’t deny that Rebecca-sama’s skills are good. Even though she’s still a newbie, she shows potential for growth. It seems like she got an expensive shield somewhere. Dealers who invest generously in equipment are welcome too. “
“But why? Why do you want Rebecca out?”
“…Do I have to say that with my own mouth?”

Kate looked at me as she clutched the hem of her nun’s robe in her hand.
Kate’s cheeks were flushed as she looked up at me.

“Is there any reason why I shouldn’t tell you? Tell me about it here.”
“Ha. Really!”

Kate opened her mouth with a frustrated expression, and I was startled to scream out loud.

“I get pissed off when I see you…!!”
“Hey, if you talk too loud…!”
“Sir, it’s noisy! Do you know how much my stomach swells when I see you two? You talk in a friendly atmosphere like a lover, but I’m going crazy with jealousy if you listen!!”

I couldn’t help but be embarrassed to hear that.

Jealous?
You’re supposed to take Rebecca out just for that reason?

“Why are you jealous of us?”
“Be quiet! You dirty couple!”
“More, dirty. Are you talking about The Love?”
“Kyaaaaagh!”

Kate giggles like an angry badger at my gag of conversion.

“Do you know how much damage the friendly conversations you have are causing to the people around you…?! Even if a monster shoots its breath, it won’t hurt as much as this!! It’s poison to me, who I don’t even date, it’s poison-!! I go crazy with jealousy I’m dumping you! Who knows you don’t want to have a boyfriend?!”

It was Kate, who was talking in a high-pitched voice that made the surroundings resonate.
In her voice was the hatred of all couples in the world. As for me, I couldn’t bet her on her carelessly.
Because I was also a mother-of-a-kind solo who cried out for a solo heaven and a couple hell. In my previous life, I briefly cut off contact with a friend of mine who said he was going to hang out with her girlfriend for Christmas.

“It’s not incomprehensible.”
“How do you understand my heart!”
“Couples should all be shot to death for the best taste.”
“Why do you shoot a couple when you are a couple?”

I opened my mouth with a solemn expression.

“Because the only good couples are dead couples.”
“Ohhhhh.”

Kate quickly took out her notepad and jotted down my words, then she looked at me with a deceived look. She crumpled up her finished note and folded it away.

“Solo, don’t pretend to know your mind. I’ll kill you!”
“A camouflage? I’m not really dating Rebecca. I don’t know what you misunderstood…”
“Because I know that much as well? That fresh atmosphere right before dating her is unbearably painful!! Rather, that’s even more lethal!! Are you planning to kill all the solos?!”

I must have been angry when I heard you screaming.
The fresh atmosphere right before dating?
For some reason, hearing that made me feel better.
Doesn’t that mean that Rebecca and I are close enough to misunderstand those around us?
It didn’t hurt to be told that I looked close to Rebecca, as I did when I was talking to old Nickel.
I don’t know what Rebecca will think after hearing that…

“Hey, then you can make a boyfriend too. You look good, so if you keep your mouth shut, men who want to date will line up.”
“Hey. There are a lot of people who want to date you even if you don’t keep your mouth shut.
“What’s your taste? Tell me.”
“A prince on a white horse!”
“Hey.”

I had no choice but to hold my head and sigh.
That’s why you can’t date a man, you greedy blonde.
As I looked at her with a pitiful expression, Kate cleared her throat as if she knew she was bullshit too.

“Anyway, dating is prohibited at my fixed party! It is absolutely forbidden to give off a dating-like atmosphere! If Nightma-nim wants to have a fixed party with me, then you must not come with Rebecca-sama. I’m going to go crazy because my stomach is boiling. Please, only Nightma-nim. Come, only Mongma-nim!”

As if Kate would understand, she held out her hand to me.
Maybe it means shaking hands.

“So you’re going to accept the offer? It’s a fixed party proposed by the nuns! Let’s grow together and make good holy water. I’m asking you so earnestly, but you’re not going to refuse it, are you?”

It was as if it was natural for me to accept the offer.

“Humter resting.”

Even if that impudent attitude is sarcastic.
Kate’s proposal was certainly attractive.

Forming a fixed party with a nun was every adventurer’s dream. The ultimate spec that transcends good equipment, excellent dexterity, and career as an adventurer. It was the fact that he had a fixed party with the nun. A dealer tied up with a nun becomes an aristocrat in itself.
If I form a fixed party with Kate, I’ll be able to pick out sweet quests and hit the adventurer’s field.
It was a fixed party with wizards and nuns, but no one stood in our way.

“Hmmmm—-.”

I just couldn’t hold Kate’s hand.
Because my party member, a red-haired female swordsman, shimmered in front of me.
Abandoning Rebecca to party with a nun was a terrible betrayal.
The moment I hold this hand, I really become what people call a dream demon.
Horned garbage that stabs people in the back as if they are eating rice.
So I reached out my hand to Kate.

“As expected, you accept it, right? In the end, even Dreamma-sama can’t help it.”
“Not really?”

Slap-!

With that hand, he cut off Kate’s hand.
Extremely cool.

A sound echoed and Kate’s arms cut through the air.
I looked straight at Kate, who was putting on her dazed expression.
In order to convey exactly what she said to her.

“Everything, what are you doing now?”
“To my party-“

I always wanted to say something like this someday.
I said with a grin.

“I don’t need a healer who strikes a chord.”

He spoke the words he had stored in his heart.

I will keep my incision as a dealer.
I will live as the last dealer in this era who does not give in to tools.

“–!”

Kate staring at me with her eyes wide open.
I put my mouth in Kate’s ear and whispered softly.

“Because my party members are better than you. Know them well.”
“Under!”

Kate pushed me away with her hand.
I turned around and walked towards the carriage, just as I was being pushed. With a swaying footstep like a bully, he stuck his hand in his pocket.

“You will regret it! You will regret it!! How precious is a nun like me!”

Kate yelling at me from behind.
I politely ignored the voice and went back to the carriage.

*

After the break time was over, it was time for the wagon to depart.
Ever since I got back in the carriage, I couldn’t help but think about what I had said to Kate.

Though she was all cold inside, having pierced her with the blonde nun.
If you look at it honestly, it’s as if you’ve committed it.
Even if I think about it, it would be no surprise if I lost my hand to Kate now.

‘Is it time for that blonde bitch to lose me? Is it liberation at last?’

But instead, I felt satisfied and smiled on my own.
Even if I broke up with Kate, it seemed like there would be nothing to regret if it ended like this.
If you think about it, it’s like I threw out everything I wanted to say and jumped out.
There is nothing more pleasant than swearing and splashing as you please.
It’s like grinding and bouncing a pad in the chat window in the waiting room.

“Kuk-kuk.”

As I laughed softly, Rebecca, who was next to me, looked at me. She had just returned to her carriage from a patrol mission.

“What, why are you laughing?”
“Nothing.”
“Hey, what are you laughing at? Let’s laugh together.”

Can I tell you what just happened?
I wanted to proudly brag about my insulting her nuns, but I stopped for fear of causing a commotion. If I explained what the brazen blonde-haired nun said, it would cause a fight between Rebecca and Kate.

I was in danger of being expelled from the fixed party without even knowing it.
Who can stay still?

For the temperamental Rebecca, it wouldn’t be strange to slap Kate right away. I just kept silent for the peace of the punitive forces. Although her mouth was itching and I couldn’t stand it.

“Kuhmm…! Nun…! Shit, what a year…! Kkeuhmm…!”
“What are you saying, son of a bitch?”
“To you…! Keuhum…! Trick…!!”

It was a time when I was coughing and unknowingly wiping my mouth.
Kate suddenly appeared at the entrance of the carriage, so I hurriedly shut my mouth.
Kate looked at me and she clenched her fists resentfully. That would just make me angry.
It’s because I put a blast on myself and it bounced off.
Kate’s mental state would be in tatters right now.

“After.”

Kate took a deep breath and climbed onto her wagon.
This time, he sat in the seat in front of me, clenched his molars and glared at me.

‘This bitch?’

Are you thinking of harming me?
Despite that suspicion, Kate didn’t move her body. She just sat in the front seat and stared at me fiercely. It looked like it was going to eat me, but I wasn’t afraid.

‘Even if the heels get angry, they’ll be heels.’

Are you thinking of hitting someone with a heel?
Then it’s a dog.
Still, I felt bad for the person in front of me. I was thinking of using sign language to express a mountain like yesterday, but I soon came up with a better way.
Kate said she didn’t like the friendly atmosphere between me and Rebecca.

Rather, what if you were forced to create such an atmosphere?
Kate, watching right in front of her, can’t help but feel her outfit burst.
I wanted to do justice to this nasty blonde bitch.

“Hey, Rebecca.”
“What.”
“I’ll raise your hand!”

I quietly put my hand on Rebecca’s shoulder.
Because she was sitting right next to me.

“Sah, I’m watching people… Are you crazy?”
“It’s skinship. Can’t party members do this much?”
“…Crazy bastard.”

Rebecca tried to shake off my hand, her cheeks flushed.
The more I did, the more I energized my arm and forced myself to place my hand on Rebecca’s shoulder.
Rebecca looked around her, looking embarrassed.

“Hey, why are you suddenly like this? Didn’t you take your medicine today?”
“What medicine am I on, damn it.”
“Anyway, stop being shy.”
“Are you asking for that, or are you ordering it?”
“Uh…”
“Tell me quickly.”
“…Ask?”

It was the moment Rebecca answered with a smile.

“Ah, aaaaa.”

Suddenly, I heard a moan of pain in front of my eyes. It’s the voice that comes out of Kate’s mouth.
She looked at me and Rebecca, her mouth open in a scream.

“Hey, you bastards…”

Kate began to sob as she placed her hands on her lap.
We couldn’t help but stop what she was doing and look at her.
Tears were welling up in Kate’s eyes, though small.

“Me too!”

Kate opened her mouth as she shrugged her shoulders.

“I want to date. You bastards…!”

Kate’s voice contained a sincere echo, not a single lie. Suddenly, I couldn’t help but feel a great sense of guilt. It seemed like he was sincere when he said he wanted to be in a relationship. Rarely was it Gura.

“That blond hair is a bit strange-? Didn’t he take the medicine too?”
“I-I don’t know…”

There was silence in the carriage for a long time after that.
Feeling awkward for nothing, I looked out the window.

…
…

How much time has passed
I was looking out the window, and before I knew it, I saw a pure white sandy beach with sea water.
The adventurers in the wagon started talking excitedly.
Because they were looking at the same scenery as me.

“It’s the beach of Corfu.”
“Time to beat the giants.”

It is right on the coast of Corfu.
It was the hiding place of giants.
