Chapter 365 The First Drop of Blood
Chapter 365 The Tenth Drop of Blood (Aqua)
Hans's body began to become soft and elastic, and its color changed constantly, from its original human skin color to a gradually transparent green.
In an instant, his body no longer resembled a human, but turned into something like jelly, and it was even expanding.
But it was no use. No matter how much he expanded, the golden flames continued to envelop him, as if devouring his body and turning it into fuel.
"Oh my god—!"
Soon, Hans's body swelled to be almost the size of Axel's villa.
The golden flames were also there, and they burned exceptionally brightly.
"This is too big!" Youyou's mouth dropped open in surprise.
"Time, the facilities here...!" Aqua said hurriedly.
"It's okay, I'm here."
The hour framed Hans's massive body with a barrier and then lifted him into the air.
Golden flames burned fiercely inside, and Hans's green body was faintly visible.
"Ahhh—! Stop, stop! Have mercy!" Hans finally couldn't bear the burning of the sacred fire and began to wail and beg for mercy.
The sacred flame is the nemesis of all negativity, and poison is no exception.
Shi Chen watched indifferently as Hans was gradually burned to ashes by the flames; he couldn't possibly let this guy go.
This guy kills people like it's nothing, and he feels no remorse whatsoever. He's a true heretic, a veritable demon king's army cadre.
If Shichen hadn't promised Wiz to find out what inhumane requests Hans had made, he wouldn't have bothered arguing with him.
This was on his condition for inquiring about Hans from Wizna.
After all, she was one of the Demon King's officers. Although she hadn't done anything to harm humans and was in a neutral position, she still had to side with her comrades.
However, the premise is that the Demon King's army cannot do anything to harm humans.
After all, Wiz was originally human.
No matter how powerful Hans is, he is still a slime after all, and he is powerless against the Holy Flame.
His enormous green body continued to shrink, as if it had been evaporated.
In the end, he was reduced to ashes within the barrier, leaving not even a trace.
"That's it?" Darkness asked, bewildered.
"What else do you want?" Shi Chen smiled as he removed the barrier and then put away the sacred fire.
"Wow, that's amazing! As expected of Tokiomi!" Aqua excitedly jumped into Tokiomi's arms, her face full of excitement.
"You don't have to worry anymore, right?" Shi Chen patted her on the back.
"Mmm! I knew the timing was perfect."
"Hehe~ You should purify the hot spring thoroughly first, then we'll report to the guild."
"Okay~" Aqua skipped off to purify the hot spring.
"Youyou, are you still worried about me?" Shichen looked at Youyou, who had been standing to the side with a gentle smile.
"I know you're amazing, Shichen, but I just can't help worrying about you~" Youyou replied, pursing her lips.
"Really? That's fine then." Shi Chen nodded.
Believing and worrying are not contradictory.
Worrying doesn't mean disbelieving.
"Don't you need me to worry about Shichen?" Youyou asked.
"No, I'm actually happy that you're worried about me."
"Is that so?"
"Come here," Shi Chen beckoned to her.
"What's wrong?" Youyou obediently walked over.
"Let me hold you for a while, it's been a while since I've held you." Shi Chen hugged Youyou tightly, feeling her warmth and breathing in her fragrance.
"Time... Darkness and the others are still here..." Youyou blushed shyly.
"It's fine."
"Hmm...."
"How can you! I want to be hugged too!" Darkness said enviously.
"You still think it's not enough?" Shi Chen glanced at her irritably.
The day before yesterday, he hugged her all afternoon. There was even a time when he was standing and Darkness was facing him, hugging him with her arms wrapped around his waist.
"Of course not!"
"If you don't have enough, just hold it in! Now is a long time."
"Why is it like this... But it doesn't seem so bad... Huff—! Huff—!"

A short while later, after Aqua finished purifying the hot spring, Shichen took the three of them to the Adventurers' Guild in the town to report the situation.
According to the adventurer's card, Hans did indeed die at the hands of Time, and as a result, he received another reward.
Hans's reward was much higher than that of the Headless Horseman.
That makes sense; this guy kills without blinking an eye, so of course the bounty is high.
Shi Chen inadvertently became famous in the town, and the staff at the town's Adventurers' Guild inadvertently revealed that he had solved the Headless Horseman's problem.
This earned him the utmost admiration from the adventurers in the town.
A hero is capable of defeating the Demon King's army's officers.
Shichen only enjoyed the town's adoration and worship for two days before taking Aqua and the others back to Axel.
Because he became famous, the Axis Church wanted to recruit him even more, and he would run into a bunch of Axis members whenever he went out.
No one knows who leaked the news, but now that they know he's a lolicon, all the followers surrounding him are cute little girls.
No, he's not a lolicon!
So I can't stay here anymore.
Besides, I can't soak in the hot springs anymore, since Aqua has purified me quite a bit, so there's no point in staying there.
There was no compensation, because Hans was dealt with too quickly, before the hot springs could be completely polluted, and Aqua didn't need to thoroughly purify the hot springs either.
It will recover in a short period of time.
Moreover, it's understandable that the hot springs were affected to some extent because Hans, a cadre of the Demon King's army, was polluting them.
When it was time to go back, we used spatial teleportation to take everyone back, because we were too lazy to take a carriage again, as it would be too time-consuming.
Shichen was eager to return as soon as possible so that Aqua could receive her travel reward.
Back at the villa, Shichen didn't sense anyone's presence at home; Kazuma Sato wasn't there.
He probably went out to clear his head; after all, dying once must have affected his state of mind.
They didn't even pay attention to the time.
"Finally back!"
"It's definitely better to be at home!"
"I think so too."
As soon as they got back, Aqua and the others seemed to breathe a sigh of relief and collapsed onto the sofa.
Frillie, on the other hand, was quite energetic. She skipped and hopped to Shichen's room, and it was obvious that she was going to lie on the bed and read comics.
Sure, as long as she's happy.
"Damn it! Why didn't they call me along when they were dealing with the Demon King's army?!" Huihui said with a resentful expression.
She's been agonizing over this for two days.
She always says that if she had her explosive magic, Hans would be no problem at all, and she could easily solve the problem.
But she never expected that the explosion magic would affect the hot spring facilities, and if Hans were blown up, his fragments would be scattered everywhere, further polluting the hot spring.
"Those small fry don't need you to get involved at all," Shi Chen comforted her, rubbing her head.
"Really? That's true." Huihui nodded in agreement.
"Hehe~ Are you guys going to continue resting or come shopping with me? I'll cook a big meal tonight to celebrate."
"I, I! I want to go with you, Shichen." Youyou quickly raised her hand.
"Me too!" Huihui quickly followed suit, raising her hand.
"You guys go ahead, I just want to rest right now," Aqua waved her hand.
"I'm not going either," Darkness shook her head. "I'll go home first and send the gifts back."
"Okay then."
Shichen took Huihui and Youyou to buy groceries, and naturally, the people in the town called them lolicon along the way.
After dinner, Huihui and the others sat still with their little bellies sticking out, and Shichen thoughtfully carried them back to their rooms one by one.
I soaked in the hot springs before coming back, so I didn't need to take a shower at all that night.
Aqua was the last one. When Shichen was about to leave after escorting her back to her room, she grabbed his hand.
"Shichen, you haven't asked for my reward yet," she suddenly said.
"No rush, we'll talk about it tomorrow."
"No, you've helped me so much, I have to give it to you now."
"It's just hugging a hot spring, is it really that big of a deal?"
"It's very important to me," Aqua said earnestly.
"...Really, any reward is acceptable?"
"certainly!"
"Then...can I eat you too?" Shichen whispered in Aqua's ear.
Aqua laughed: "I knew it."
"what?"
"Hmph~ I'm a goddess, it would be strange if you didn't have feelings for me, right?"
"and you?"
"As for the time... that's fine~" Aqua said shyly.
Her cheeks were rosy and exceptionally alluring.
"Really?"
"I...I also really like the time of day~"
"so."
Shichen laughed and hugged Aqua.
"Wait a minute, Shichen, can you take me into the water?"
"In the water?"
"I am the goddess of water, so of course this kind of thing should be done in the water."
"no problem."
Shi Chen was happy to grant her this small request, and he took her to the sea near Alcanreti.
The two were inside a barrier, isolated from the seawater, and the creatures in the sea could not see them.
"Wow, this place is amazing!" Aqua exclaimed in surprise as she looked around.
"Now is not the time to worry about that~" Tokiko hugged Aqua again and then lowered his head to kiss her.
"Hmm..."
The ocean floor is undisturbed, surrounded by deep blue and black, with marine life swimming by.
After a long while, inside the barrier, clothes fell down, feather robes floated, and the sea seemed to be illuminated.
Aqua was so holy, so perfect, truly flawless; it was as if the moon had appeared in the sea.
"W-Will it hurt a lot?" Aqua couldn't help but ask, her voice trembling slightly.
"I will be very gentle," Shi Chen said in a gruff tone.
"Oh... um—it hurts—!"
