The Road to One Day Be the Strongest

─ ─ ─ open

I stepped nervously into the "Banya" where it was written.

"Oh, oh, what the hell should I do!? Zero total customers for coming over here until I quit my part-time job at the bakery because of it! I asked you all about the best selling land right now. It's on purpose, it's on purpose! I went out of my way to reduce my remaining savings, sooo much to debt, and as a result of coming over this! What do you mean, they don't even come for customers instead of selling them? Awesome!

I watched Sole (...) whining one such stupidity while cleaning with the dust removal in my hand.

(hey, what... that?)

Is it about 160cm tall?

White sluggish tummy.

And from the foot to the back to the head, a smooth round black back.

Tidy black eyes, long, developed lips that you don't think people are.

And ----both arms as if they were birds.

─ ─ Well, it's the so-called 'penguin' guy.

Why a penguin? I may think so, but that's not what I knew.

Is it a stuffed animal from a customer, or is it a super-specific species of the Beastman clan, or is it just a freak?

Well, in any case, this seems to be a more troublesome project than I imagined, and I don't care if it's already poisoned or something, so I want to check with Kyoka and come back out. Yeah, attacking him solo is going to break his bones.

When I think about it, I still haven't noticed the penguins coming this way, so I try not to make any noise, and I lag behind.

Moments, giggles, and the floor rang.

"" Ah. "

And I accidentally lifted my face off the floor, looking at this one with a perfect eye for that penguin.

No more of that. As for the first lovers I've had in years, I forgot the time and let them look at each other.

─ ─ And,

"Sorry to bother you..."

"Yes, welcome!!

Gin got away!

I got turned around by a penguin!

A penguin! 'Welcome!

Damn it! What status is this penguin in! I got away with quite a bee right now but they've already turned around!?

I move my gaze toward the door behind the penguin, but the penguin leans toward Jiri and this way because he doesn't intend to return me.

─ ─ In those eyes is the flame of obsession.

I was so obsessed that I rang my throat.

"Oh, please! I don't have any money for dinner tomorrow, so, hey, whatever, just buy it and go!

"......... yes?

Too sad to confess, I accidentally leaked my voice.

"Hey, it's already helped. Hey, you don't even know your name. Not that I'm a business associate...... but I just suggested to someone I know that I want to open a store and they told me about this place, but what a well with the customers not coming. Sometimes I go outside the store to dry laundry and stuff, but you guys run away as soon as you see me, huh? Don't you think it's terrible?

"Mmm... oh, yeah... maybe."

I was looking around the store listening to machine gun stupidity, not machine gun talk from that penguin.

The size of the store was not very large, and there were a variety of products available in the store, just to say 10,000 houses.

Apart from magic guides, weapons, and protective equipment, there's alcohol in the food (?) that makes you want to hear 'What's this' without thinking, or part-time influence in the bakery I was talking about, or even freshly baked bread for some reason - - what is this chaotic shop? What if it's chaos?

Walking around thinking about that, I realized that with that said, I hadn't heard the name of this penguin yet.

"With that said, you hadn't introduced yourself yet. I'm Gin, SS Rank Adventurer. What does your name say?

I don't know why, I didn't feel like using a salute on this penguin.

"Oh, if you say so, I didn't hear you! My name is' Asta '! Since you are the only one with customers, please continue to give my regards forever!

- Hey, Penguin, you're not going to pay for your living from me, are you? It's easy to get flushed by that kind of 'love' here, so stop it.

I was like, "What are you wearing, a lick? 'But I tried to ask, but I don't even really feel like asking if I might be doing so as a result of something I might have peeked at in the past.

But I was a little concerned about the boulder, so I opened my mouth reluctantly.

"Oh, you know..., if you don't want to, you don't have to tell me, that penguin...? I'm sorry if that's vegan, but it's like that stuffed animal, why are you wearing it?

"Huh, customers. You shouldn't be too fuzzy about mysterious women, huh? Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. It's a hobby."

And in all the houses, the silence comes.

I put a faceless expression on my face and walked out toward Stasta and the penguin to peel off the stuffed animal.

"There's a fucking penguin! You're a little worried, you lost it! I mean, I'm not a penguin habit and I'm out of my mind about mysterious or anything, you flightless bird!

"Hey!? I'll call the police!? Ma, Ma, what are you really doing! Sexual harassment and sudden stripping of women is also a good place! Please stop, I apologize! I don't mean to offend you.

That's how I fought with Asta, who calls herself a woman, for a few minutes.

A few minutes later, we were on our knees, hands on our knees and breathing roughly.

"Ha, ha, don't do it, to penguin habits"

"Ha, ha, well, that's our line! I call myself the strongest of the penguins, but I didn't know anyone could do it with this penguin Asta......"

─ ─ This bastard, what's so powerful about penguins? I figured it out when we fought earlier, but it's got something in it.

When I woke up in a sigh, I was a little hurt by the fact that I tried a fight a little more seriously but couldn't win.

When I was a little upset that I did that, the penguin in front of me just pounded my hand and said what I thought, it was like a name, and all of a sudden I said something stupid.

"Yes! Let's have a fight! If I win, you will buy ten products from my store, and if you win, I will ask you one thing about everything!

I was trying to argue with the phrase, "I guess I just fought and pulled it off."

"The contents of the battle are easy! This is a battle to see if I can use the 'moves' you have just used!

I unwittingly sighed when I heard of the battle that could be too much of a one-man show.

Now Asta said 'moves'.

Then of course it includes my primitive magic, Shadow God mode, and even the Flaming Cross.

Normally, it's my overwhelming advantage, and I'm confident that even an all-knowing Zeus would be difficult to copy the Silver Flame of the Flaming Cross.

That's why he has confidently challenged the battle.

"You......, are you sure you want to fight like that? If you win, I'll take that stuffed animal off."

"Huh! There's no way this penguin's strongest Asta is going to lose! I'm going to drop you a lot of money at the store and ask you to come back!

I don't know, even if I bought something right now, it's unlikely that it will come again, but, well, if it means still challenging the battle, let Texto end it with silver flames.

"Well, the rules are fine now, right?

"Yeah, it's gonna be a little one-man show, but hey."

I overhear Asta's confident voice and wrap the silver flame around my left hand, which I put forward for easy viewing.

"Silver Extinguishing Flame Dance" is the ability of the Artifact and Flame Cross (Crossfire).

This is the Flaming Cross, and the unique skill of the White Tiger, the Holy Beast.

If the penguin in front of you isn't even the White Tiger or the Almighty, then of course you'll try to use it.

"...... eh? Is that okay (...)?

"......... Huh?

I opened my eyes and hardened. [M]

In front of me is Asta with her left hand in front of her.

On its palms is a glowing dazzling silver flame.

"Gi, silver extinct... flame dance..."?

"Heh? This is such a cool name. It might get stronger after all this, but it still feels like I said 'no harm to humans' on my own!

When I heard those words, they were so pure, I fell off my knees.

─ ─ ─ Oh, what is it? I was pretty confident about the Silver Extinguishing Dance. I can't stop crying......

Then I heard someone in the same mood, and a sad voice echoed.

'Well, what is it? I've been all silver extinguishing ice demons lately, and I haven't had a silver extinguishing flame dance in a long time, a little strained and flamed out......, well, thats, harmless to humans and animals......?'

Mr. Chloe seemed to have a broken heart without a moment.

No, I get it. I thought I couldn't use silver flame except myself. Suddenly it was copied in front of me, and the quality came with more than me. On top of that, the target is a penguin. You'll want to die, too.

When I found out, there was a royal penguin standing in front of me.

"Well, as promised, buy me about ten of them!

""...... yes ""

Well, that's how me and Chloe ended up buying about ten pieces of bread and returning with a bummer without the energy to ask the question, 'Who the hell are you', etc.

─ ─ ─ Stretched out, the bread I bought was incredibly delicious.

"" Oh, I'm sorry! Forgive me because I won't do it anymore!

Upon returning to the clan home, I was staring at Kyoka and Dawn Ho's dungeon, feeling somewhere blurred.

After that, me and Chloe returned to our home without a word, with the evergreen darkness that we would have seen through them rarely and quietly, and with strange serenity.

And through the entrance, as soon as I entered the lobby, this is it.

"Well, if you've ever poisoned me, that's enough, if you're reflecting"

As soon as that happened, the two of them raised their faces, but their faces were messed up with tears and runny noses, and, well, I can see that you regretted going back to vegan and dying after that.

Well, yeah. It's no big deal compared to alle (...), yeah.

"?...... Gu, arr, what do you mean......"

Apparently Kyoka has not been able to follow my trend until now.

Well, if you've been blocking signs and magic all the way out there, of course, then...

"That penguin, he was having a normal conversation with me in that state."

""...... Penguin?

Honestly, I'm pretty strong right now.

That is the level at which if we are serious now, if we compete with that Beast King and Sashi, we will be able to take both arms. Honestly, I'm sticking one foot in the EX ranks.

─ ─, but that penguin was mutual with me in melee combat, and it was too much to overstate when it came to magic and ability to shoulder.

"I don't know who it is, but if this happens, I can't copy it. Is there anything else I can do to knit it even a level of super stunt......"

When I said "Yes Souvenirs" to Kyoka and Dawn Ho, respectively, and threw the bag of bread over, I turned my back to the training ground in the basement.

However, after walking a few steps, I remembered, "If you say so, you haven't had a date at all today," and I looked back and told them this.

"If it wasn't for the three of us, I'd date you again, so don't get too depressed, both of you."

That's what I said to loosen my cheeks.

At the same time.

The owner of the 10,000 houses had cheeks on the counter and was staring at the void in vain.

"Ha, what's still 'weak'? They were usually strong and totally mutual when it came to melee combat, weren't they? I don't think you're saying that's weak, am I? I can't read the power over that spirit vessel here...?"

Solo.

The store owner himself thought so and put it in his mouth, but there was a reply to the words.

"Kuhaha, I'll apologize for the first time here. Indeed, now he had already drawn out 'one'. Well, that didn't seem like it, but there's a few problems in calling him 'weak' right now."

Such a thin voice sounded indoors, and at the end of the shopkeeper's gaze - he appeared out of the darkness.

Silk hat on a long purple coat.

Unusual dark hair in this world, red eyes glowing in the dark.

The figure is' he 'and two melons who were in this place until earlier.

"Is that it? Were you there, Mephisto (...). If you'd been there, if you'd come out a little sooner..."

"No, I seem a little hated by him. The other day I met him, he gave me a special hit."

The man - who doesn't show surprise at the appearance of Mephisto - shows off the silver extinguishing dance he learned earlier (...) after showing a little thought.

He was a mephisto who unexpectedly opened his eyes to that silver flame and gave a surprised look, but it's about him who can predict the general future. Inside, you must be thinking something different.

With that in mind, the store owner turns off the silver flame and asks.

"Is it possible that a Special Attack is a current move?

"Yes, I do remember it was a positive fist thrust that granted that flame, but no, you're still a horrible person"

"Is it horrible!? What do you say yourself, isn't this garment cute? I'm Penguin."

"I think penguins are cute, don't you? The problem is your abilities."

Not touching on the fact that she said 'clothes' the stuffed penguin, Mephisto remembers her - Asta's abilities.

"Was it an exemplary answer (Perfect Master)? Was it the guy who sees all his abilities and makes it all his own thing, cheats in places like Japan?

"Yes, that's right! Japan is wonderful, isn't it! You're capable of something similar to me. Something freaked me out when I saw the protagonist! The time has come!

He was a slightly bitter mephisto in a slightly unmeshed conversation, but he looked at the clock and opened his eyes slightly.

"Oops, sorry, it looks like it's time, so excuse me for this today"

"Yes!...... or Mr. Mephisto! Mr. Mephisto is a second customer at once so why not buy something!? I have enough money to pay off my debts."

"Now if you'll excuse me."

"Mephisto, come on!?

The shopkeeper's outstretched hand was vain, and Mephisto disappeared to blend into the darkness.

─ ─ In a few minutes, a new customer (Yakuza) will appear regarding the debt, but that's another story.
