Chapter 9 - Is that Kazuma? I can use magic now!

[Axel. early morning. No POV]

In the middle of Axel during the early morning a figure could be seen appearing out of nowhere, it was a brown haired boy wearing a green and black tracksuit. He looked around and saw all sorts of people, men and women with animal ears and tails, some elves, and many people in armor with weapons.

This boy is quite obviously Kazuma after being sent down, but unlike what should have happened, he was sent here with no boon, no goddess, and no money. While he was excited, it was the wrong type of excitement, as he was already thinking of ways to make a harem for himself.

He unconsciously made such an ugly face that everyone around started avoiding him, giving him nasty looks, especially the women.

[Same time different place]

Inside an inn we can see our protag hank finished putting on his clothes and stretching, ready for another day. As usual for his routine he headed out to the guild for breakfast, but on the way he saw a guy staring at a few women with a less then pleasing face.

Hank saw the guy and realized who he was almost instantly. 'Kazuma? He's here now? And why is he acting like that?' Hank had no intentions of getting involved with Kazuma at the moment, perfectly fine with doing his own thing.

So after softly kicking a pebble at Kazuma he continued on his way. That pebble that Hank 'lightly' kicked, hit Kazuma in the head and knocked him out completely, and making him fall and eat dirt.

Meanwhile Hank had already made it to the guild, and was now eating something new. He asked the waitress if he could custom order monsters he killed and she said he could, so now he's eating direwolf meat.

'Not bad. A little tough, but good tasting' Hank continued to eat his meal, ignoring a commotion that was happening at the counter. Kazuma after waking up pretty quickly due to anime logic was now making a ruckus over having to pay to be an adventurer.

Though that didn't last long as many adventurers walked up and drug him away, planning to teach him a lesson in respect and manners. After that everything went back to normal, ignoring the screams and sounds of flesh on flesh outside.

[Later. Hank POV]

'That was pretty good. Though maybe find a honey substitute. Does this place even have honey?' I shook my head and got up to check the quest board. Now with my exosuit I was feeling safer about the options here.

I quickly started looking over the board, seeing wolf hunts, more toad hunts, even a rookie killer. 'If I remember correctly, the rookie killer was a big tiger like beast. There was also that one punch bear, but the quest isn't here just yet.'

I thought about killing the rookie killer, but I didn't feel like it. I could world jump again, but I wanted to stay here for now and continue leveling up. 'Once more, decisions, decisions'

I kept pondering when a notification appeared in front of me with a surprising message.

[Host, there is a foreign presence trying to gift you a water blessing. Shall I allow it?]

This caught my attention pretty quickly, it's not everyday your system tells you someone is trying to give you a blessing... Okay maybe the whole system thing isn't an everyday thing either, but you get the point.

'Is there anything harmful about the blessing?' The system pretty quickly responded with a negative, so seeing nothing off about this besides someone watching me, I accepted.

[Blessing of water had been gained]

[Blessing of water: Gives the user the affinity and capability to easily control water magic and subsequent subclasses of water magic such as; healing magic; boil magic; and Ice magic. Additional effect of speeding up regeneration by 50% in water of any kind]

Now this is what I'm talking about. I got magic now! 'This is great! I can use magic now, and the healing is going to be massive boon!' I quickly chose a wolf quest, cause water magic doesn't really work on frogs as they are resistant to it.

[Later in the same forest from before and that time before]

I made my way here in record time. That massive stat boost yesterday is already coming in handy. 'Now here comes the question. How do I activate my magic?' I stand there pondering for a moment before just trying.

Result? Water orb cracking a trees bark. Second time around? Water lances turning trees to swiss cheese. Third time? Tidal wave uprooted a few dozen trees. Final results? I have magic now, and it rules!

'Now that my testing is done' A grin spread across my face as my eyes showed pure glee. 'Wolf hunt~' I ran at high speeds into the forest, laughing like a maniac who just heard the concept of sanity.

[Scene change. Dark room]

In the same dark room from before, the same blue haired goddess aqua was sitting on her throne, reading another book called 'How to be a parent part III.' She also had her mirror displaying Jack slaughtering dozens of wolves and reeking havoc in the forest.

She smiled watching him laugh and smile as he did his thing. She completely ignored the fact that said laugh and smile were both maniacle in nature. Despite this she enjoyed watching him from time to time.

"I'm glad he enjoys my gift. Though I expect a certain 'gift' from him later on~" Aqua started giggling with reddening cheeks. Her expression one of pure affection and slight possessiveness.

[Scene change. 'Wolven massacre forest']

[Axel five minutes later. No pov]

Hank was back in axel after having caused absolute mayhem. Now with higher stats and more money, he was feeling pretty good. Though he was definitely mentally exhausted, cause as much as the Hp and Mp refill was appreciated, the mental toll of constantly focusing to use magic was still pretty bad, especially for a beginner like him.

So he headed back and decided to rest for a while, of course collecting his payment for the wolves. It was 2,500 Eris for each 5 wolves, as the wolves were considered less of a problem then the frogs as they couldn't swallow cattle or people whole.

70 wolves means 35,000 more Eris to his name. So he swiftly added it to his wealth and ate some more cooked direwolf before heading home for an early sleep.

[Quick note from author: I'm back. Sorry for no updates, kinda lost interest in writing, but I am back. For how long? I don't know. But here's a chapter. And one more thing, I'm gonna stop keeping track of Jacks wealth. Me trying to keep count of that is going to be a pain, so I won't. Happy to be back, I'm currently also working on another story, so once I release the two already made chapters, I'll tell yall. Bye]
