"I even told you not to abuse the royal family's badge. Kazuma, you don't take my words seriously at all! Ah, of course, Mr. Nango, please feel free to do so, but it's best not to use the badge to do anything that damages the reputation of the royal family.
…”
Darkness roared at Kazuma and became respectful again when speaking to Jiang Li.
"The differential treatment is too obvious!"
Let alone Kazuma, even Megumin felt something was wrong.
The two of them looked at Darkness and became suspicious.
"Ahaha, why hasn't Aqua come back yet? The rice is cold..."
Darkness' face stiffened when she heard this, and she quickly changed the subject.
Seeing that she didn't want to say anything, Kazuma and Megumin looked at each other and could only sigh helplessly.
As night falls, the temperature gradually drops, and the coolness in the air penetrates the skin, making people unable to help but get goosebumps.
Megumin and Darkness went to the bathroom first.
"I'm back!"
When only Jiang Li and Kazuma were left in the living room, a gray-faced figure burst into the living room excitedly.
"Aqua?"
Kazuma tried with some uncertainty.
"it's me!"
The disgraced girl nodded excitedly.
Her body was covered with mud, and her blue hair was stained with muddy water. She looked like she had crawled out of a mire. I had no idea what she was doing!
"You came back just in time."
When Jiang Li saw this, he seemed to remember something, put his hand behind his back, and then took out something.
It was a light purple feather coat, obviously a female style, and the material looked very comfortable.
"My Hagoromo!"
Aqua was stunned for a moment, then suddenly screamed.
She rushed over unexpectedly, holding Yuyi in her arms with tears and runny noses, and said some meaningless words such as "You are suffering".
"Why is my hagoromo at your place?"
"I picked it up in a garbage dump when I was lurking in the Demon King's City."
Jiang Li said seriously.
"Garbage dump?! This is unforgivable, Demon King!"
Aqua immediately lost her temper and screamed to make the Demon King look good, so she ran towards the gate, but was stopped by Kazuma, so she didn't give it in vain.
"Strange, why are there so many footprints on my feather coat?"
"...It must have been because I tripped over someone, and that person just stepped on it a few times and threw it into the trash!"
Jiang Li couldn't help but admire his quick wit!
"That's right. Let me know who stepped on my precious Yuyi. I will never let him go!"
Aqua grinded her teeth loudly and her facial features were twisted like a villain.
"Aqua, what are you wrapping in the cloth?"
Kazuma didn't care about Hagoromo at all, even though he sent it out indirectly, he just looked at the package in Aqua's arms curiously.
Previously, the boss said that he would only be willing to join Aqua's sect if he brought over ten or eight artifacts. Could it be that they are all artifacts?
Kazuma suddenly became excited and his eyes glowed green!
"It's an artifact!"
Aqua said proudly.
"You're so good, Aqua, you're hiding something from me! I'm very angry, please give me five or three artifacts to compensate me!"
Kazuma immediately jumped up and rushed forward to grab the package in Aqua's arms.
"I refuse! Kazuma, you usually don't respect me at all. You always call me retarded and say I'm useless. I will never give you the artifact!"
Aqua pulled the package hard, refusing to let Kazuma snatch it away.
"...Is it really a magical weapon?"
Seeing how she cherished her so much, even Jiang Li was a little unsure.
"Of course it's a divine weapon! Kazuma get out of here!"
Aqua kicked Kazuma away and placed the package on the ground.
"……what are these?"
The moment Aqua opened the package, Jiang Li said expressionlessly.
"Look at this!"
Aqua held up a stone with a serious look on her face.
"Don't underestimate it! In fact, this stone can summon monsters, regardless of the difference in strength. Even the Archduke of Hell can summon them!"
"...But no matter how I look at it, it's just a stone on the roadside. And is the edge just broken?"
"do not mind the details!"
Aqua waved her hand and boldly passed over very important things.
"And this! This is the demon sword Muramasa! The wounds caused by the cuts are irreversible, and this sword can absorb the opponent's physical strength through the wounds and use the magic power for its own use!"
"But no matter how I look at it, it's just a trowel."
Jiang Li looked indifferent and reached out to pat him.
The trowel snapped and stained the floor.
"...Actually, this is just the artifact hiding itself! As long as it recognizes you as its master, it will immediately show its true form in front of you!"
Aqua was silent for a moment, and then said seriously.
"And this, this is a body-changing necklace! Even though it looks like an iron rope, it's actually because the artifact hasn't recognized you as its master yet. As long as it recognizes you as its master, it will turn into a necklace!"
"enough--"
"Listen to me! Look at this egg again!"
Aqua interrupted Jiang Li and raised another white egg.
"Actually, this is a dragon egg!"
"...Everything looks like eggs to me!"
"This must be a dragon egg! That's what the door-to-door salesperson told me this afternoon! I spent 100 million to buy it. I originally wanted to raise it myself, but I didn't have any more artifacts on hand, so I sold it half for half.
I'll give it to you at a cheaper price, and charging you 500 million is definitely not too much!"
"Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!!!"
Loud laughter came.
Kazuma was rolling on the floor laughing next to him. Aren’t these all fake artifacts?
"Wait a minute! It cost 100 million, Aqua, where did you get the money?"
"What are you yelling at? I used your money. Believe me, Dragon Egg will never lose anything!"
"Damn it Aqua!!"
Kazuma cried miserably.
The bounty for defeating the Mobile Fortress Destroyer was all lost with this thing!
Jiang Li took a deep breath.
"Aqua, look at this!"
"This, isn't this the demon sword Muramasa...?"
Aqua suddenly felt guilty.
What Jiang Li took out was a blood-red sword, which Jiang Li copied from the reincarnation of the royal capital.
"and this!"
Jiang Li took out a necklace set with sapphire from his trouser pocket.
"Change, change necklace! Why is it also in your hand?"
Aqua screamed in shock.
"Do you have anything else to say?"
Jiang Li looked at her expressionlessly.
"Ah? This, this...artifacts are all made by gods. It's normal to have several copies..."
Aqua scratched her cheek and looked away guiltily, looking like the weather was good tonight.
This is a lie.
There is always only one artifact, there are no duplicates.
"Look at this again!"
Jiang Li slowly raised his hand.
"...What is it?"
"It's a fist!"
"duang!!!"
Jiang Li punched Aqua hard on the head.
Before she could even roll her eyes, Aqua fell to the ground, with a huge swelling on her head!
