Chapter 115 Please Let Me Suck
Although abandoning Kazuma Sato might seem heartless, Charlotte had done her best to save him.
After that, there will definitely be a verdict, and then Darkness will have to go on a blind date with Aldap's son.
Instead of getting bogged down in how to exonerate Sato Kazuma, Charlotte was more interested in how to solve the problem at its root.
But before that—
"Hey Lolisa, you've been following me for days! Didn't we agree not to interfere in my life? Why are you still following me—Wiz, it's you?!"
Charlotte's somewhat impetuous tone immediately turned into one of confusion.
After intercepting the Mobile Fortress Destroyer, he noticed someone was frequently following him. He initially thought it was a playful little dream demon, but it turned out to be a lich girl!?
"Th-that—we've been found out, hahaha—"
Wiz was somewhat embarrassed.
She looked very unnatural, her awkward manner suggesting she had something difficult to say.
"What's wrong, Wiz?" Charlotte raised an eyebrow. "Is there something you need?"
"No, it's just—did I do something wrong?" Wiz said, his face full of self-reproach. "Back then, if I had listened to Mr. Charlotte, would Mr. Kazuma not have been accused of subverting the kingdom? Maybe it was my fault—"
"Don't blame yourself, Wiz. It wasn't your fault. Anyone would have chosen random teleportation back then."
Charlotte comforted her.
After all, random teleportation is more reliable than a touristy dungeon that might cause injury; it's just that Sato Kazuma's "luck" came into play.
"Besides, didn't that prosecutor just say that only the lord's mansion was destroyed, and no one was injured? As long as you explain that and insist that it wasn't intentional, Kazuma shouldn't be given any trouble."
"That's certainly true—strange, the prosecutor just mentioned this, wasn't Mr. Charlotte also present? Didn't he leave first?"
"That's not important. Anyway, Kazuma will be alright, I promise."
"Ugh————"
Wiz seemed unable to let it go. She was just that kind-hearted, always subconsciously taking the blame upon herself, which was the root cause of her inability to make a decision when transferring the Corona Stone.
At this point, Charlotte took the initiative to extend an invitation.
"The weather's nice today. Wiz, is there anything I can do for you? If not, would you like to come for a walk with me to relax?"
"Hmm? — Good, good! Perfect timing, the magic item shop is empty, and I have some things I want to buy. It would be great if Mr. Charlotte would be willing to help."
Wiz was somewhat pleased.
She contributed the most to the interception of the mobile fortress destroyer, both in terms of manpower and resources. Whenever the town is in danger, Wiz always offers to help for free, which is partly why the magic item shop often runs a deficit.
The two walked down a bustling street.
The effects of the mobile fortress destroyer have faded, and the townspeople are living their lives as leisurely as ever.
"Ugh, it's so heavy!!"
Charlotte struggled to carry the sacks, which contained the things Wiz had bought.
If it were some random magical artifacts, he would definitely try to stop them, but these were all practical consumables, so he had no choice but to carry them. Unfortunately, as a priest, he was embarrassingly weak.
"I'm sorry," Wiz said apologetically, "because no matter how I thought about it, it would be too difficult for me to buy this much stuff by myself. Fortunately, Mr. Charlotte was willing to help."
"That's quite a lot—but it's not exactly a waste of money. It's just that there's no need to prepare so much—hmm? Where did it go?"
Charlotte looked around for Wiz.
Mr. Charlotte
Just then, Wiz's shout came from not far away, and Charlotte walked towards her.
"Where did you go?"
"I saw some things I liked and bought them. Look at this! This necklace is an extremely rare and exquisite piece, and it's only 30, which is quite a bargain considering the craftsmanship and materials!"
"What?! It only took a blink of an eye!?"
Wiz held up a magnificent necklace with a beaming smile. Charlotte didn't understand the quality of magical artifacts, but he knew the lich girl spent money at an alarming rate. And based on her characteristics, this necklace was probably not a good thing—or rather, a useful magical artifact.
The prop shop owner, overjoyed at finding something good, exclaimed, "Maybe we can find other great things too! Let's take a look around!"
"Hey, hey, hey, didn't I warn you not to waste money and not to buy any weird magical items!"
Charlotte tried to dissuade her.
pity.
The lich girl who's obsessed with it is like a craft expert who picks up scraps in a junkyard. Even though they're all junk and useless, she's still keen on playing with and buying them.
Arriving at a certain stall.
"Mr. Charlotte, Mr. Charlotte!" Wiz beamed, holding up a plush toy. "We also sell Lord Eris dolls here! Look, aren't they incredibly lifelike?"
"Lord Eris's doll?"
Charlotte looked over suspiciously.
It does resemble Eris very much, especially the chest area, which is quite accurate. But what is this "doll that brings happiness"? And what is this random trend?
Besides, isn't this way too expensive? 10 for one? It's clearly price gouging, and the price is inversely proportional to the actual value. With that kind of money, you could hire a goddess to accompany you for drinks!
"Oh no, what should we do?"
Wiz, however, found it difficult to make a decision, and said with a troubled look, "We need to prepare for the shop, for Mr. Charlotte, for the guild, and for everyone who has taken care of us—"
"Are you asking how many you want to buy?"
"Yeah, wouldn't it be bad if someone were missing at a time like this?"
"Don't buy this kind of thing!"
Charlotte shouted instinctively.
While it's touching that Wiz is considerate of others, she's a lich, and this doll isn't worth the price at all!
"Why not? It's Lord Eris's doll! A lucky doll! If we use it to decorate, the shop will surely prosper!"
"No, Wiz, you have to accept your fate. This kind of thing won't make your shop prosper."
"—Um, can I be angry?"
Wiz tried his best to put on an angry face.
She is very cute like this.
Charlotte crouched down and advised, "Also, before you buy, make sure you check if the quality of the product matches the price."
"Isn't the quality... quite adorable?"
Wiz tilted his head.
"Eris is indeed cute, but this doll is not so much. Would you think so when you look at it? And take a good look at this. The stitching and shape are tattered and worn out. Even if it were handmade, it would be far inferior."
"Doesn't this have a very handmade maid vibe?"
"That's the problem before the taste! Look closely again, did you see anyone pick up the doll and buy it?"
"—No."
"That's about it. Although we don't know if the price matches the quality, everyone thinks it's not worth buying."
"—Now that you mention it, I think it makes a lot of sense."
The Lich Girl's eccentric taste is still too authoritative.
In the end, however, Wiz still bought an Eris doll. Of course, Charlotte might agree; after saying so many outrageous things, if he didn't buy one as a token of appreciation, the stall owner glaring at him would really get physical.
Back to Wiz's magic item shop.
Charlotte tossed the heavy cargo into the warehouse and then prepared to leave.
"Wait, wait a minute, Mr. Charlotte. This!" Wiz handed over the Eris doll. "This is a gift to thank you for accompanying me shopping."
"Yeah----"
Charlotte was a little conflicted. She had said a lot about the doll's shortcomings, but it was Wiz's gift, so in the end she thanked him and accepted it.
"So——"
"Wait, wait a minute, Mr. Charlotte!"
Wiz called out to him again.
"What's wrong now?"
"Um, that—"
For some reason, the lich girl in front of me suddenly became shy. Her cheeks were flushed, as if she was embarrassed about what she was about to say. Her beautiful face made my heart skip a beat.
Could it be that—
"During the interception of the Mobile Fortress Destroyer, Wiz developed some special feelings for me, so..." "Don't be shy, Wiz, just tell me what you need."
It's a confession of love, right?
Charlotte was ready to accept the confession. After all, Wiz had a good personality, a great figure, and was very strong. Moreover, she was a lich girl who would never age, making her the perfect candidate for her.
With his encouragement, Wiz clenched her fist to cheer herself up, a small gesture that made her even more adorable.
"Um—Mr. Charlotte! I—I have something I'd like to discuss with you!"
"I do!"
"—What?"
"Ahem, it's nothing. You can continue."
Charlotte coughed awkwardly.
Wiz found it strange, but after hesitating for a moment, she spoke again: "I... I know this might sound weird to you, but... but—could you please let me absorb some of your magic?!"
After she finished speaking, she looked at Charlotte, only to find that the priest in front of her had such a conflicted expression, his mouth was moving and his eyes were twitching, which was extremely strange.
"What's wrong?"
"—It's nothing, I just feel a bit suicidal."
Charlotte forced a smile that looked more like a grimace, but little did she know, he had misunderstood again.
