1st step to harem ♥
“Are you stupid?”
“Maybe?”
“This is important so I have to say it twice, you are stupid don’t you?”
“From question form into affirmation……”
Renya can only curl himself up while enduring Brenda’s subzero icy cold stare. After the previous coming out, Renya explain the process of him becoming a god but Brenda expression grows even colder as he explains.
“Solving an impossible task by spending innumerable amount of time on it, I praise you for that great exploit. As ordinary person mostly would become crazy before achieving it”
“W-Well… thanks?”
“The problem is WHY did you use that POWER! That you got as COMPENSATION! For such ORDINARY LEVEL purposes!?!?”
That below zero cold expression suddenly turns fiery hot from anger. People can say as expected from a magician, turning minus to plus within seconds is their strong point.
“Well, my natural disposition are after all from human. Commoners can’t be suddenly turned into a saint doesn’t it?”
“I particularly don’t meant it that way. Be it acting all high and mighty or becoming a saint I don’t care. But can you just think of a better purpose than THAT!?”
“Did you mean that those with power have to act befittingly to the power they have?”
Renya voice tone got a bit lower. In truth, getting sermon about becoming an ideal model type of person sour his mood a bit.
Understanding what Renya thinks about, Brenda with astounded looks says to him.
“It’s not that kind of thing. I was just lamenting on how void your ambition is. Even what you call as a goal is such a small thing…”
“Complete rejection eh? This girl really don’t have any mercy”
“Well, having too much ambition is a problem though. You got too much power to easily achieve anything a man can dream. It might make a new point of view where superpowers are better to be hold by the hand of a peasant”
“Even when she tries to improves her way of saying this girl still don’t show any mercy”
Getting such scolding Renya can only drop his shoulder dejected. He who is invincible in the aspect of battles and physical abilities is surprisingly vulnerable in the mental aspect. Limited to daily life situation like this that is.
“And then again you seems to value normal human live highly so I think it’s alright for you to live your life as you like. What’s more, you are not the kind who is conceited with their own power and wield that power to oppress and look down upon others which is very much desirable in my eyes. Though the fact that you are just a helpless idiot don’t change”
“Please I beg you, if you’re going to praise me then please just only do so”
“I don’t wanna! If you want praises then ask your partner for it then. Even if I’m like this, I am aware that I have quite a sharp tongue”
“If you aware of it then why don’t you put an effort to fix it?”
“Why did I have to? Man doesn’t grow from praises alone doesn’t it?”
So strict! This girl is too strict to everyone even to herself. Renya think so while scratching his head. But her tsuntsun appearance is quite acceptable in his eyes, he can’t say any complain.
“And by the way~ in the end for what purposes did Brenda come here?”
“I’m also curious by that. Suddenly coming to someone place then starts digging that person past leaving no stone unturned just to chastise that person. Is such reason valid?”
Did Floria see that staying on a defensive will keep them at disadvantages so she speaks up the question she hold at her mind? Well doesn’t matter, thanks to that Renya was able to forcibly change the topic. He was merely running away from arguing with Brenda.
“Honestly, I got too much shock from the start and the plan I had got spoiled because of it but, to simply say, I want a negotiation”
“Negotiation?”
“Yes, I for once have the citizenship right of this country just in case, but I don’t belong to any other organization”
“Not even the magician guild?”
“I have connections there personally but I don’t officially put my name there”
For a quite competent magician to be free not belonging to any organizations. And requesting a negotiation on top of it, Renya then easily reads her intent.
“So what you want to negotiate is our god power isn’t it?”
“It’s good that you’re quick to understand, is what I want to say but that’s for future negotiation. What I want to ask now is an equal cooperation relationship that is”
“Hee… despite knowing our true nature, seeking an equal relationship rather than a master servant relationship is kinda bold don’t you think?”
“Yes. For you who is seems to be kind hearted by nature, and clearly declares that you don’t like ruling over people, rather than a master servant relationship, this equal relationship is more fit don’t you think?”
Chuckling, Brenda declares it with a smile, responding to that, Renya can only groan.
In short, while he was acknowledged as a being with superpowers, he is also acknowledged as a being that can understand human reasoning too. With that, Brenda calculates that she can demand an equal relationship.
Well if the other party is someone who Renya doesn’t like then he can just break up that agreement one-sidedly but Brenda doesn’t seems to be that kind of stupid people so Renya don’t find any reason to exercise violence to her.
Thinking that far, Renya kinda understand that Brenda didn’t make light of him at all since the start.
Brenda seems to be able to understand Renya a bit from the talk just now so she was able to ask a demand that would normally be an insult for a god in the negotiation. On the back side of that, it could also mean that Brenda recognize Renya’s nature as a human.
Renya was amazed by how fast she can somehow understand him despite the little time they have been together. But well, for now let’s continue with the negotiation.
“If you guys doesn’t have any aim in your journey then I wish you can help me with one of my job. If you manage to finish that then I will surely join you in your journey. There is no time limit. The contracts valid until we each becomes unable to compromise with the other party, in this case I got fed up with you for example. How does that sound?”
“It seems like the merit is too big for our part. If it was a job that needs raw power to accomplish then I don’t mind ending our contract as soon as we finish the job you know?”
“Is that so? There are no guarantees of what bizarre happenings will occur on the place where bizarre beings like you guys come to. I was curious to the kind of things that would unfold if I was following you on your journey. Isn’t that enough reason for me?”
Brenda says that while looking straight at Renya eyes. In her face, a challenging smile floats boldly.
Even without using his divine power, her word is filled with soo much power that Renya can easily feel that all she says is her true honest feeling. He could sense her anticipation toward his being as a god even stronger now. He could only admire at how bold she is.
What if Renya only acts stupid on the outside but he was actually a coldhearted tyrant at the inside? The being known as Brenda would probably have been long gone from this world. Her bold action towards him despite the possibility of that kind of bad thing could happen to her shows that she doesn’t feel any fear from Renya’s power.
Well of course she might have ulterior motives regarding Renya and Floria power as a god but he doesn’t mind much about that.
(Doing this because it was interesting seems to be her main motives, and even more the chances to borrow our power increases the more time we have together so she thinks it would still be profitable for her to keep joining us on our journey)
But still he doesn’t want to make cheap promise. Renya then carefully continues the negotiation so he won’t get overawed by Brenda too much.
“But we still don’t know the most important factor yet. What kind of job did you want to ask?”
“Annihilation of Ordough sect branch division”
“Uoi! Challenging that secret lunatic sect that we just know the other day is it? Isn’t the difficulty level too high?”
“What kind of stupid thing you say? For the all powerful you who can simply just destroy the building if they hide inside one”
“No it was Brenda who said such things first. What is it? Infiltrating into an enemy branch division? And on top of it doing that alone?”
“I don’t say anything about starting a war directly with them you know. There are other ways to annihilate them right? Well the danger is definitely high, that’s why I choose this city as my base to gather intelligence about them to reduce those risks”
“You mean the job we had earlier too has connection for that?”
“Yes. And while I was gathering information for that sect, suddenly a pair of traveler appears out of nowhere and got praised by the mass as people with high capability in no time. I need to ascertain whether those individuals are Ordough sect spies or not. But the result is even stranger than my wildest imagination”
“Ah… so that’s the truth behind those dubious glares that we were bathed with for days……”
“I thought that if there are people who constantly put up their guard close by, those suspicious people will show their tail easier”
Hearing the talk this far, Not only Renya, Floria also understands what Brenda actually wants from them. It was battle potential. With their extraordinary battle potential added, any kind of jobs successful rate will increase drastically.
“Well I don’t have any reason to refuse but…… how about you Floria?”
“Me? I think I can accept it, but I got something to ask to Brenda here, do you mind?”
“I don’t mind, what did you want to ask?”
“With this, no matter how I think of it, is Brenda 1st step to enter the harem as number one candidate. Don’t you think so?”
Renya and Brenda together stumbled upon the sudden question from Floria.
In this, well, quite serious negotiation what is this girl saying?
“I-I-I beg your pardon! It was just simply compensation from the demand that I request of. That is to accompany you guys who seem to lack this world common sense. Why does it goes to that direction!?“
