I don't want to be a heroic spirit

I made a big mistake in the last chapter

Darkness should have followed Kazuma into the casino, but I forgot and made her appear during the battle with the Golden Dragon.

Wuuwuwu… So embarrassing… So embarrassing… I want to die… I want to disappear…

I really want to go to a place where readers can’t find me…

Chapter 344 If you don’t abandon me, I’d really like to be your adoptive father!

Although Darkness expressed her desire to fight, that was impossible because she still had the mission to protect Kazuma.

When it comes to the future of the ancient Kingdom of Belzer, Darkness is still very clear about priorities. Just like in front of Alice, she would temporarily restrain even her perverted interests.

After Darkness left, Nero and Kazuma continued chatting.

"Hmm! The Golden Dragon is the biggest threat to this country. After all, it occupies the country's largest gold mine. Even if this country relies on the gambling industry for its prosperity, it will be affected. Therefore, defeating the Golden Dragon this time should earn us a large commission."

"rich?!"

"Hey, hey, hey, didn't you just make a ton of money today? Forty percent of the money you use to support a country is enough to buy new equipment for several armies. That's a pretty impressive amount for one person, right?"

When he heard that there was money to be made, Kazuma's eyes turned into the shape of gold coins.

"But those aren't mine... Even if there are more, it has nothing to do with me. In the end, it will all go towards the expenses of Belzec's battle against the Demon King's army."

Upon hearing this, Nero immediately rolled his eyes at Kazuma.

"Do you think I'm stupid? With your unyielding nature, you must have hidden some money in your own pocket, right?"

The smile on Kazuma's face froze for a moment, and then he scratched the back of his head in embarrassment.

"Uh... ahahaha."

Seeing this scene, Nero folded his arms over his chest and sighed helplessly.

"Don't worry. I understand the principle of 'If you want a horse to run fast, you have to feed it well.' Just focus on making money. As long as you achieve your goal, I will take charge and give you 20% of your earnings over the next few days."

Twenty percent?!

"real?!"

The sudden happiness almost knocked Kazuma unconscious.

After all, this money has to be handed over to the country, so even if Kazuma is being clever, he only dares to take a small amount from it.

And now, Nero told him that he could take 20% of it directly!

This is 20% of the money to support the country’s war!

As long as he plans well, Kazuma feels that he may not have to struggle for the rest of his life!

Kazuma's face flushed slightly with excitement.

“Could it be that… Mr. Kazuma is finally saying goodbye to his image as a poor and debt-ridden person and is about to embrace a better life?!”

"The finest ingredients! The finest wine! And... I can go to that restaurant every day! And... and I can order three services every time! Mr. Kazuma will live a luxurious and licentious life from now on!"

Nero glanced at Kazuma, who seemed to be crazy, and there was a hint of contempt in his eyes.

Nero knew that the "that shop" that Kazuma mentioned... was actually the shop where the succubus helped him have erotic dreams.

That's why Nero was speechless towards Kazuma.

You say that you are already a rich man, but you still rely on dreaming to satisfy yourself.

Look at your potential.

And...three servings at a time? Can your kidneys handle that?

You know, after each service, the succubus will suck away some of the essence as a reward. It happens so frequently, and Kazuma has poor physical fitness. I'm afraid he will die in bed accidentally.

"Oh, by the way, we'll go into the Royal City tomorrow to collect the commission we received from defeating the dragon. Once we get the money, I'll give it to you. With that money, you should be able to win more money, right?"

"Nani?!"

Nero really believed in Kazuma's luck, and facts proved that her trust was correct, so she decided to give Kazuma the money for defeating the dragon.

I heard that when this guy played the roulette, he not only bet on colors, but also on numbers with even smaller odds. Betting on colors and numbers together resulted in the probability of winning reaching several hundredths of one. The extremely low winning rate naturally resulted in extremely amazing odds, but Kazuma still won the bet.

If it weren't for the pass Prince Levi gave him and Darkness's presence, Kazuma would have been robbed of his winnings and thrown out by the casino. He might even have had a few fingers chopped off or something...

Just as Nero was stroking his chin and thinking, Kazuma suddenly knelt on the ground with a "bang".

"Father!"

"……what?"

Kazuma's move was so cool that even Nero's brain froze for a moment.

"He Zhen has been wandering for half his life, and I only regret that I have never met a wise master. If you don't abandon me, I am willing to become your adoptive father!"

Looking at Kazuma who was kneeling on one knee with his hands clasped in front of him, Nero's expression kept changing, and after a long time he finally uttered a word.

"……roll!"

"okay!"

…………

into the night.

Nero sat on the bed, not in a hurry to sleep, but was admiring the night view outside the window.

"Even at night, many places are still brightly lit..."

Looking at the buildings with lights on, which were probably casinos, Nero's mouth corners raised slightly.

"Hmm! It's truly prosperous. While gambling and the like can potentially erode one's will... this imperfect and promising future also belongs to Rome."

[Rome] is [the ever-evolving human civilization].

Humans are the creatures furthest away from "perfection", but precisely because of this, they can create infinite miracles, reach the end of the shining stars, and accomplish great deeds that even gods are amazed at.

Always making progress, never standing still, always shining like a star.

This is the real Rome!

"Boom boom boom!"

Nero came to his senses because of the knock on the door. He jumped out of bed nimbly and trotted to the door and opened it.

A familiar figure stood outside the door, and the moonlight shining from the window shone on Alice, making her look holy and beautiful.

"Let's sleep together tonight."

"Ok!"

This kind of thing happens every night these days.

Nero had almost gotten used to it.

Anyway, with an extremely beautiful girl lying next to her, she definitely won't be the one who suffers.

Thinking of this, Nero reached out and hugged Alice's soft body in his arms, resting his chin on her neck, and could smell a pleasant fragrance.

After all, I just took a shower. I was all dirty after fighting with the dragon today. If I don’t take a good shower, I will feel uncomfortable all over.

The result was that Nero took more than an hour to wash.

What’s strange is that Alice and I should be using the same shower gel... but it seems that the scent on our bodies is slightly different?

Could it be the difference in body odor?

I don’t understand…

Reaching out and lifting the hair from Alice's forehead, Nero gently said good night to Alice.

He fell asleep at this point. After all, he still had to accompany Alice to the royal city tomorrow to collect the commission for successfully defeating the golden dragon.

This is how it should be...

Suddenly, Nero opened his eyes. There was no trace of sleepiness in his emerald eyes, only full of solemnity.

The next moment, the window shattered.

Sharp glass fragments flew in the air, and a black figure rushed towards the two people on the bed.

Chapter 345 Law of Conservation of Luck

"cut!"

With a light shout, the seemingly heavy sword turned into a sword light as fast as lightning.

The attacking black shadow had no time to hide and was easily cut in half by the sword light. Hot blood mixed with disgusting organs splattered in all directions, staining the floor, walls and bed.

Nero, still wearing a white nightgown, half-crouched on the ground, holding the greatsword in one hand and Alice in his arms in the other.

"Is this... a bat?"

Alice saw the lifeless corpse on the ground. It was a bat larger than an adult, with sharp fangs, scarlet eyes and huge membranous wings.

The solemnity in Nero's eyes did not disappear. As if she sensed something, she suddenly raised her head and looked out the window.

"Hold on tight! They're coming!"

The next moment, the wall was shattered, and sound waves containing powerful destructive power attacked the two of them.

The sonic attack missed, and the floor where Nero was standing was easily shattered into dust. After all, it was just the floor of a cheap hotel, and there was no way to expect it to be very hard.

Even though he was holding a person and a sword that was almost as tall as himself, Nero's figure was still as agile as a swallow. He bent down to avoid the sound waves and rushed out through the big hole in the wall before the enemy could react.

The [Clairvoyance] skill was activated, allowing Nero to see the existence hidden in the dark night.

There were eight bats in total, exactly the same as the one Nero had just killed, flapping their wings and hovering in the air.

Why do monsters appear in the capital of Elrod?

There was no time to think about this problem, as the sonic bats had already looked over and seemed ready to attack again.

But they obviously don't have that chance.

"Sword of Light!"

Nero waved his hand, and eight sharp blades of light flashed by, destroying all the sonic bats in the blink of an eye, leaving no one behind.

After that, Nero, holding Alice in his arms, landed on the grass outside the house.

"Sister Nero, are you okay?"

"It's nothing, just a headache, an old problem... Hmm..."

Nero's face looked a little ugly. Once she used magic, her chronic headache would kick in, and the severity of the headache would vary depending on the strength of the magic.

After a while, Nero stood up, with a flash of silver light on his body, and the white nightgown was replaced by a bright red skirt and light armor.

This is the advantage of spiritual clothes made of magic power. You can change clothes anytime and anywhere with just a thought, including weapons. Look at Alice...her holy sword was left in the next room and she didn't bring it with her.

The incident happened suddenly and Alice was not even wearing shoes. Nero didn't want her to walk barefoot in the dirty garden, so he didn't let her down.

Nero frowned as he glanced at the cut-up bodies on the ground.

"These seem to be mutants of the monster vampire bats... They seem to be called sonic vampire bats."

Suddenly, an explosion occurred on the other side of the hotel, and the strong wind turned into sharp blades, sweeping up the corpses of countless monsters.

Nero keenly sensed the magic power belonging to Youyou.

"It seems we're not the only ones here..."

"Sister Nero, Youyou and the others have also encountered monsters. Let's go help them!"

Alice was a little panicked, but Nero was very calm. With Youyou's strength, there was no need to worry too much.

Judging from the strength of her magic power, Youyou still has plenty of room to spare.

Before supporting...

"I'll help Alice Ru get the holy sword back first, and... at least I have to put my shoes on properly."

The perspective comes to Youyou.

Although Youyou was a little flustered by the sudden appearance of the monster, she managed to calm down.
