Chapter 34 - Chapter 34: Invitation to Subdue the Demon King? New Profession: Archmage!

Shiraishi Kawa's gaze briefly swept over the many Adventurers gathered there, even the Guild signboard girl Luna and other staff members had come out.

It seemed to be the moment Aqua successfully appraised her abilities.

The Adventurers and Guild staff weren't particularly surprised by Shiraishi Kawa's sudden appearance, as people often reincarnated here.

He had clarified the basic situation.

Feeling the softness from his arm, he still chose to remind her: "I suggest we get your profession sorted out first, then discuss other matters."

"Uh..."

Aqua, having come to her senses, heard the question about choosing a profession and was completely clueless. Living alone in another world...

To return to Heaven, she had to subdue the Demon King.

How could such a thing be possible?

She blinked her intelligent eyes, pushed Shiraishi Kawa's hand, and asked: "What kind of profession do you think I should choose?"

"High Priest."

With basically no combat ability, relying on the Goddess of Water's divine power to become a High Priest, the support healer of the team, it was more suitable to follow her original path.

Shiraishi Kawa said without hesitation.

"Then I'll choose the High Priest profession!"

Aqua, who had completely given up, chose to stop thinking. After all, he was a member of the Dimensional Chat Group and had even kindly reminded her before.

She looked at Luna, the signboard girl.

"High Priest?"

"A versatile profession capable of skillfully using all healing and support magic, and possessing enough power to serve as a powerful vanguard. It truly suits you."

"Then, Lady Aqua."

"Welcome to the Adventurers' Guild. All staff here look forward to your future active performance."

Luna smiled professionally, praising her with a rather surprised tone.

Ignoring Shiraishi Kawa, who had suddenly arrived in another world, the surrounding Adventurers, after a brief pause, erupted in cheers again.

Shiraishi Kawa couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth.

Compared to Goblin Slayer's world, "konosuba" was simply synonymous with perversion, but he didn't dislike this style.

As the clamor gradually died down.

At the Adventurers' Guild's recruitment bulletin board, Shiraishi Kawa sat on a chair, carefully observing the blue-haired girl in front of him.

She had transparent, Aqua-blue hair, and as a goddess, her beauty was naturally extraordinary.

The bead ornament on her head looked like an H2O molecular model.

She was a beautiful girl of the regrettable type, wearing a blue feathered robe, white short sleeves on her arms, and a short blue pleated skirt.

Whether she was wearing underwear...

Shiraishi Kawa would need to bend down and examine carefully to ascertain, but considering such an action would be too abstract, he decided against it.

In terms of figure.

She could even rival Hanako-chan.

Looking at Aqua, who was slumped on the table, giving up, he thought for a moment and then explained: "The luck stat is innate and cannot be changed."

"Perhaps some equipment might increase the luck attribute."

"..."

"Do I really have to defeat the Demon King to leave this world, Shiraishi Kawa? What exactly does the Interdimensional Teleportation Anchor do?"

By her own strength.

Aqua couldn't even imagine forming a team to defeat the Demon King. Currently, she was in a state where she didn't know if she'd have her next meal after finishing the current one.

She only felt that returning to Heaven was a distant dream.

"It's quite complicated. After the Dimensional Chat Group issues a quest to another world, you can spend points to leave an anchor point and then travel back and forth freely."

The city of Axel was quite large.

Shiraishi Kawa estimated that finding Megumin would be quite difficult. He could only check the Adventurers' Guild's bulletin board and see what luck brought.

Chatting idly with Aqua was also a way to pass the time.

"Then how can I return to Heaven? How could a quest appear in Heaven?!"

Having received the cruelest outcome, Aqua felt that her fantasy of returning to continue being a goddess was now completely shattered.

She couldn't help but look at Shiraishi Kawa.

We're both High School Students, so why is that shut-in NEET guy so annoying, bringing me to this unfamiliar otherworld!

But as she kept surveying the young man before her.

Aqua suddenly slammed her hands on the table, stood up abruptly, and looked at Shiraishi Kawa with sparkling eyes, inviting him: "Shiraishi Kawa."

"Are you interested in becoming a hero who saves another world and defeats the Demon King?"

"Although I can't help you reincarnate into another world, I am, after all, a Goddess of Water, a High Priest of a superior class."

"As long as we team up, there'll definitely be no problem!"

He's reliable and a member of the Dimensional Chat Group, absolutely the best candidate to defeat the Demon King, Aqua cunningly enticed him.

Facing the invitation, Shiraishi Kawa decisively refused, emphasizing with an exceptionally serious tone: "I must state that I am merely an Ordinary High School Student."

"And..."

Before he could finish, a girl's voice came from behind him, interrupting his speech.

The girl had soft black hair and an adorable, somewhat childlike face. She had short hair, wore a Magician's hat, and two longer strands of hair framed her cheeks.

With a classic loli physique, her left eye was covered by an eyepatch, and as a Crimson Demon, she had red eyes and held a magic staff in her hand.

She slowly came up behind Shiraishi Kawa.

"I heard you were discussing the matter of defeating the Demon King. This encounter is a fate chosen by the world, and I have been waiting for people like you to appear."

"..."

Ignoring her extremely chuunibyou-level conversation, Shiraishi Kawa turned around and carefully observed the black-haired, red-eyed loli girl in front of him.

Her distinctive single eye.

Due to poverty and malnutrition, she would probably be considered an elementary school student in Japan, but these weren't the most crucial points. As his gaze focused...

Shiraishi Kawa's originally calm mood was instantly filled with excitement. A smile hung on his lips, and the job change prompt box reappeared before his eyes.

"Ding!"

"Necessary conditions detected. Do you want to activate the new class 'Archmage'?"
