Satou Kazuma was a little surprised. Was this developing a bit too easily?
But no matter why, it was definitely a good thing for their group.
"A good choice, it seems you haven't disappointed us."
Satou Kazuma cleared his throat and said to the people in front of him,
"Well then, I'm giving you a task now, and you must complete it immediately!"
"What?"
Lazes and the others asked, confused.
...
More than ten minutes later, Natsuki Subaru hurried to the vicinity of the alley, wanting to meet up with Satou Kazuma as soon as possible.
He realized that with just the few of them, it would be a bit difficult to deal with Elsa.
But just as he entered the alley entrance, he saw several figures moving inside.
"Is it those guys again..."
The images of those three punks involuntarily surfaced in Natsuki Subaru's mind.
But as he walked into the alley, he discovered that it was actually Aqua and Satou Kazuma inside.
"Useless goddess, you looked so stupid just now!"
"Where was I stupid! You're the one who told me to say that!"
At this moment, Satou Kazuma and Aqua were passionately bickering again.
"Um... what are you guys doing?"
Natsuki Subaru pursed his lips, thought for a moment, and then chose to speak.
"Subaru, you're here."
The two of them stopped arguing and turned their heads to look at Natsuki Subaru.
"Here... didn't you see three punks here?"
Natsuki Subaru asked, confused.
"We did, but they're our subordinates now!"
Satou Kazuma said with a smile.
"Huh?"
Natsuki Subaru's brow twitched slightly, and for a moment he thought he had misheard.
Those three punks became Satou Kazuma's subordinates?
Why?
If he remembered correctly...
The two of them seemed to have been beaten up badly by those three people in the previous loop.
"Those mortals are subdued by this goddess's personal charm!"
Aqua puffed out her chest, her face full of pride.
"Wasn't it my plan that was good?"
Seeing that the two of them were about to start arguing again, Natsuki Subaru quickly interrupted them:
"Um, that's not important, what are we going to do next?"
"I already have a plan, but we still need your help, Subaru."
Satou Kazuma turned his head to look at Natsuki Subaru.
"What do you need me to do?"
"Just relying on us, I'm afraid it will be a bit tricky to deal with Elsa, we need more manpower, so you have to go find the guards to help us!"
"But if I go find the guards, what about you guys?"
"Don't worry, leave it to me here!"
Satou Kazuma patted Natsuki Subaru on the shoulder,
"Let's meet up at Felt's hideout later."
"Okay! You guys be careful!"
Natsuki Subaru nodded, then turned and ran off in the other direction.
"Let him call the guards? Can't we just call them ourselves?"
Aqua asked, puzzled.
"I thought of a way to deal with Elsa, but to be safe, I can't let Subaru be involved, after all, I can be revived when I die, but if Subaru dies—"
The words reached Satou Kazuma's lips, but he forced them back.
Because he remembered the pain of his heart being crushed.
He absolutely couldn't say the words related to "return by death."
Satou Kazuma already had a plan to deal with Elsa, and if Natsuki Subaru had an accident, they might have to start all over again.
"Now we just need to wait for Felt to come."
Satou Kazuma and Aqua sat on either side of the alley, like two guardian deities.
Before long, a familiar figure flashed past them.
Felt.
"Felt! Wait!"
The moment he saw her, Satou Kazuma immediately called out her name.
Just like in the previous loop, Felt stopped and looked at Satou Kazuma with a confused expression.
"Who are you? Why do you know my name?"
"I know someone is chasing you because you stole her badge."
"You, mind your own business!"
Felt immediately thought that Satou Kazuma was just a helpful passerby, and her gaze became even more cautious.
"I'm here to help you. The person who hired you is a woman in black clothes, right? This is a trap."
"What are you talking about? How do you know that?"
"There's no time to explain! Follow us and leave quickly, or else you and Old Man Rom will be in danger!"
After hearing Satou Kazuma's words, Felt's brows furrowed instantly.
If it were normal circumstances, she definitely wouldn't easily trust him.
But Satou Kazuma mentioned Old Man Rom's safety, which made Felt have to pay attention.
"Hey, you better not be lying to me, or I'll make you regret it!"
...
Before long, Satou Kazuma and Felt arrived near her hideout.
After confirming that Emilia wouldn't be chasing after them, Felt stopped and looked at Satou Kazuma with a serious expression:
"What exactly do you want to say?"
"The person who made a deal with you is called Elsa, a notorious killer, and the badge you stole is not an ordinary thing, it's proof of identity for a royal candidate."
Satou Kazuma said immediately.
"Huh?! Just this broken thing?"
Felt lowered her head incredulously, looking at the badge in her pocket, completely unaware that it was such an important thing.
Stealing this thing is a serious crime, not just ordinary petty theft. If Felt had known beforehand, she would never have agreed to this job.
"So, that silver-haired half-elf is one of the king candidates?"
"Absolutely true, and the person who hired you is a vicious killer. You and Old Man Rom are involved in something like this, do you think she won't silence you?"
"Damn..."
Felt gritted her teeth, thinking about it carefully, and indeed something was not right.
The reward for this job was just too generous, completely different from usual.
But Felt was still very confused in her heart, and turned her head to look at Satou Kazuma:
"How do you know these things?"
"Because this Aqua here is one of the candidates! We knew what might happen today from a prediction."
"Huh? Prediction, I don't believe in that stuff."
"I can prove it to you!"
A meaningful smile appeared on Satou Kazuma's face,
"The underwear you're wearing today is white cotton, right!"
