The red mage who introduced himself as Izain shamelessly asked to join the party. There were red handprints left on his face.
He was absolutely powerless, and seeing his skills right in front of his eyes, the hero agreed without hesitation. He even introduced himself to the party members at will.
“Introduction, my lovers!”
“Don’t be funny. Who is your lover. There isn’t even a single one here.”
“Haha, we went to the sea together and we went to the bathroom together. What? Her name is Karin Lufraint, and she is shy and often says things that she doesn’t like, so keep that in mind.”
“It looks like that. They hugged each other like that earlier and jumped and fell in love.”
“That’s an accident! I really don’t like this bastard!”
“Haha, again.”
“Oh, that’s really annoying!”
When Jain showed the chimera’s corpse that he had defeated with magic, the other party members agreed without hesitation. Nael smiled broadly, grabbed Jain’s hand, and shouted, ‘Now that we’re colleagues, we’re friends!’ Only Karin was against it. She declared as she crossed her arms and snorted.
“I’m absolutely against it.”
“why?”
“What do you do if you suddenly put someone you don’t know the basics of in a party? The name is that we are a hero’s party. What if this child is a spy in the Demon King’s army?”
Then Jain asked as if he was pathetic.
“If you were the Demon King, would you plant a spy in such a pathetic party?”
“Ugh.”
That was correct. It felt even more painful because it was right after I had shown a mischievous figure in front of the Chimera just before. Karin turned her head and fluttered her hair, speaking even louder.
“Heh, if you say it well, you should understand it. Red mages are not necessary for a party. This means that if you are a red mage, that’s what it is, it’s versatile. You can learn all the skills of all classes, but they’re all inconsistent. In this party, I’m already a magician. Because of that, I don’t need any more magicians.”
The reason Karin came out so loud was simple. It was because he was stimulated by his unique No. 1 complex. Jain’s skills didn’t look as good as it could be. What if another magician comes in and gets pushed out in second place at the party? Such fear was making her go crazy. But Jain was not angry and just scratched his head and said.
“I don’t want any special achievements, I don’t want any rewards. It’s just because I have to catch the Demon King. If you join me, I’ll do all the chores like meal preparation, guarding, etc.”
“How do you believe that?”
“How are you going to believe it?”
Karin unwrapped her arms and raised the wand of the great sage, pointing at Jain.
“Game. Fight with me. If I win, you go back.”
When I ran into the Chimera earlier, I was embarrassed because I didn’t have this great sage’s wand, but this time I was confident I could win. Because the great sage’s staff had the effect of greatly increasing the user’s magical power.
‘There, the Hell Blazer is also engraved with magic text.’
In addition, it had an auto-cast function that casts Hell Blazer, a high-ranking fire-type magic, just by infusing it with magical power. Its power was so absurd, it was enough to burn an Orc elite the size of a house in an instant.
‘It’s a magic that’s too powerful to be used on people, so I won’t use it. What do you do if you get hit and turn into a lump of charcoal?’
Jain scratched his cheek and thought about it, then nodded his head. and put conditions.
“Well, if that’s your wish, I’ll do it. Instead, let’s put only one condition when I win.”
“Hey, what is that?”
He also said with a very serious expression, staring intently into Karin’s golden eyes.
“Tell me if you’re a virgin or not.”
“You creatively crazy kinky bastard, you’re killing me today!”
‘oh.’
Karin, who lost the bond of reason for a moment, immediately regretted it. It was because he had unknowingly shredded Hell Blazer. The embers that jumped out from the tip of the staff took the shape of a trident and rushed towards Jain. But Jain was calm. He just made a fox shape with his right hand and made a magic seal.
“Dispel.”
Then, the Hell Blazer that flew by burning the grass to a tan burned out immediately. only one. Just by forming a single seal, he had canceled the spell of Hell Blazer, a high-level magic.
‘Hey, this bastard, what is it? I don’t think even Master can do that?’
Karin’s mouth opened in shock. But Jain was calm. He walked along the scorched grass and slapped Karin’s forehead with his right hand.
“ah!”
“What should I do if I use such a thing without prior notice to people? It’s dangerous.”
Jain said to Karin who was rubbing her forehead.
“Then this match, I won, so let me know.”
A real innovative crazy dog pervert… Karin muttered helplessly. After all, Karin was the daughter of the duke. Of course, he was strongly educated in the notion of chastity. It was embarrassing to even say those words out of my mouth. However, it was impossible for a member of the Lufraint family to break the promise after losing the game. Biting her lip and shaking her head, Karin, who had been holding her skirt for a long time, wiggled her teeth, said in a crawling voice.
“Virgin… that’s right.”
“That’s right, I was relieved. I’m glad.”
What are you happy about? Karin lifted her head in disbelief. Jain was sweeping his chest with a genuinely relieved expression on his face. For some reason, it seemed that it was a really important issue for this child. Couldn’t put more swear on her face, Karin pointed like a punk villain.
“Oh, I’ll pay you back for today’s disgrace! Let’s fight tomorrow!”
*
And again, I lost.
The next day I lost again.
The next day and the next day, I continued to lose.
Every evening, after every adventure and every time I set up camp, I rushed to Jain and tried all kinds of magic to win, but I lost horribly and realized the huge gap with my opponent, and I couldn’t win even once.
“Are you addicted to defeat?
One evening, wearing a headband and trimming onions for tomorrow’s breakfast, Jain said he was tired of it. These were words to Karin, who never got tired of fighting again.
“Hehe, today will be different? Let’s fight with this today!”
“What is that?”
“Cards! The kobold hawker I caught yesterday has two decks of this card game! Let’s play with this today!”
“The field isn’t even magic anymore? Hey, didn’t you keep flirting with me because of the pride of a famous magician?”
“Ka, there’s a thing called card magic, so cards can go into magic roughly…”
“The daughter of a famous magician is insulting magic in real time.”
“Noisy! No matter the field or the content, I have to beat you! Oh, no way, were you scared? You must have been scared. This card game was popular among the aristocrats, so you don’t even know the rules!”
“I am.”
Jain took off his headband as if it was a pity and sat down in front of Karin. Karin shuffled the cards skillfully, thinking to herself.
‘I don’t know anything else, but this will win. Because I’ll give you a deck with a poorer compatibility!’
Looking at Karin who is very skillful in shuffling with a follower shuffle and shuffle with 8 cuts after ripple shuffle, Jain said bluntly.
“But you shuffle your cards so well. Why are you so good?”
“What, what? Do you have any doubts that my hobby was playing solitaire alone in my room because I didn’t have any friends?”
“No, who would have such a specific suspicion…”
Karin, who hummed and shuffled all the decks, looked at the first hand and smiled with a convincing smile.
“I don’t go far! You?”
“I have to do it once.”
Seeing Jain shuffle the cards, Karin excitedly put down the first card and shouted.
“Ha, sorry to start the game and tell you, but I was the winner of the regional Grand Prix! You died today!”
And, defeated.
He continued to fight, but he jumped 7 times and lost 7 times.
“Why… why are you losing this too…”
Karin was in tears and lowered her head. Jain shuffled the cards and just said a word indifferently.
“You’re lucky.”
“Probably, it doesn’t make sense… You cheated? It’s invalid, it’s invalid!”
“It’s because your expression is so damn easy to read. You stupid face.”
“Huh, huh? You really can’t. Do it again!”
Karin, who had been crying, gathered up the cards again with a bubbly and buoyant spirit. Jain put down his well-organized deck of cards and said.
“Before that, forehead.”
As a penalty, it was because they were supposed to get hit with one punch every time they lost the game. Karin sighed, rolled up her bangs to expose her forehead, and closed her eyes tightly.
“do it faster.”
She had already been beaten with chestnuts in the same spot seven times, and her forehead was swollen and red. Jain, who quietly looked down at her forehead, said softly.
“But now I realized, you…”
“Pretty? Did you finally feel remorse for beating this pretty girl?”
“Your forehead.”
With those words, he struck the eighth bat. Exactly, the sound of a crash resounded in the clearing of the forest. Karin, who had fallen backwards from the shock, jumped up. His face was red as if it was about to explode. The fact that her chest is efficient and that her forehead is slightly protruding were the only two things she was concerned about.
“You, you, you bastard, how could you say that, you, today I’m sure I’ll defeat you and kill you!”
“Come on. Please kill me.”
“Shuffle the cards quickly!”
and lost again. The match that day ended only after Karin was hit five more times.
