Chapter 367 Parting Ways
Two days later, Axel's men learned that Shichen had defeated Hans, a high-ranking officer of the Demon King's army, in Alcanreti.
The defeat of the Demon King's army's executives is definitely a big deal, and all the guilds share information with each other, so Luna also knows about it from Axel's side.
After resting for two days, Shichen arrived at the guild and was greeted by an excited Luna who grabbed his hand.
"Shichen, I heard that you not only resolved the crisis in Alcanredia, but also made Hans, a cadre of the Demon King's army, hate you. You're really amazing!"
Luna's eyes lit up, and she gripped Shichen's hand tightly, looking as if she wanted nothing more than to throw herself into his arms.
"What?"
"Did Shichen take down another Demon King's army officer?"
"Really? Didn't he go to the hot springs?"
"Judging from Luna's reaction, it probably isn't fake. The timing is incredible!"
"Even the Headless Horseman is no match for him, so the other Demon King's officers are definitely no match for him either."
"Damn it, when will I be as good as him?! I want Luna to admire me too!"
"Forget about it. You don't have his looks, and don't forget how long you've been an adventurer. How long has Shi Chen been an adventurer?"
"Damn it! How can there be such a huge difference between people?"
"Could Shichen really be a hero?"
"He is too."
"They are our heroes of Axel."
"Shichen, hurry up and treat us! You must have made a fortune from defeating the Demon King's army officers, right?"
"Aren't you going to treat us?"

Shi Chen ignored the group of people at the bar. They kept slandering him as a lolicon, and they still had the nerve to ask him to treat them?
Can't you be a little more distant?
"Luna, how did you know...?"
'
"Hey! What are you doing? Let go of Shichen's hand!" Before Shichen could finish speaking, Huihui stepped between the two and slapped Luna's hand away.
Luna glanced at her, then straightened her back, choosing to ignore her, and continued to gaze at Shichen with spring in her eyes.
"You... so what if you have extra fat!" Huihui gritted her teeth in anger.
"Huihui, that's very impolite of you," Youyou couldn't help but remind her.
"Oh, right! Youyou, come here." Huihui pulled Youyou in front of her, making her face Luna.
"Don't get your hopes up. There are girls on our team with the same figure as you. You have no chance!"
"Huihui, what nonsense are you talking about!" Youyou said awkwardly.
"Heh~" Luna sneered disdainfully.
Although Youyou looks older than her, she is not as tall as her, so naturally, her figure is not as good.
She still won decisively!
How can a little girl be as attractive as a tall, slender woman?
However, Shi Chen seems to be a lolicon, which is a bit of a problem for her.
What's so good about children anyway?
She could only hope that Shi Chen's denial to everyone that he was a lolicon was what he truly thought.
"Shichen! Look at her! She's so arrogant!" Huihui quickly tugged at Shichen's clothes to tattle.
"Why don't you go over there and order something while we wait for me?" Shi Chen said helplessly, shooing Huihui and the others away.
"Darkness, take both of them with you."
"Okay." Darkness obediently led the two away.
"Damn it! Shichen, you don't want to be alone with her, do you? She's definitely up to no good! Don't fall for her tricks!" Huihui was being pushed along by Darkness, but she still reminded Shichen.
There are so many people watching from the bar.
So embarrassing.
Fortunately, he has a thick skin.
"I'm sorry, Huihui is just like this, please don't mind her," Shichen apologized to Luna.
"It's alright, he's just a kid, it's normal." Luna smiled gently.
"By the way, how did you know I defeated Hans? I haven't shown you the adventurer card yet," Shichen asked.
"Oh, it was someone from over there who notified us. It's a big deal that the Demon King's army has been attacked, so the guilds definitely have to inform each other about it," Luna explained.
"I see." Shi Chen nodded, not surprised that the people there didn't recognize him.
Unlike here, Alcanredia is unfamiliar with him, and they've never even met him before, so of course they don't know him.
Unlike Luna, who already knew him and would immediately share the joy with him upon hearing the news.
Shi Chen had done something remarkable, so of course she was happy.
"Shichen, how did you deal with Hans? Isn't he a deadly poison slime? He should be difficult to defeat, right?"
"What's difficult for others is quite easy for me."
"Is that so? As expected of Shichen, truly amazing."
"Ahem, don't flatter me. Have you had any particularly difficult tasks lately?"
Shichen came here today because he wanted to find a couple of tasks to do. After being idle for two days, he was getting restless.
Moreover, you can't level up without doing quests and defeating monsters. This world has many interesting skills, many of which are useful passive skills, so you might as well learn them.
"Hmm... not for now. Spring is coming soon, and monsters won't appear during the seasonal change." Luna shook her head and replied.
"Oh, I see. Then forget it." Shi Chen shook his head and prepared to leave.
"Wait, wait a minute." Luna suddenly grabbed Shichen's hand.
"Hmm? What's wrong?"
"Um... Shichen, don't you have anything to do today?"
"Well, I'm not sure either. Is there something you need?"
"Well... I happen to have the afternoon off today. If it's okay, could you keep me company..."
"
"No, Brother Shi."
Just then, the guild door was pushed open, and someone interrupted Luna.
Shichen turned his head and saw that it was actually Sato Kazuma, with Duster beside him.
"Kazuma, where have you been these past two days?" Toki asked with a smile.
Luna shook her lips, helplessly releasing Shichen's hand, and looked at Sato Kazuma with an exceptionally terrifying gaze.
"Well......"
Kazuma Sato naturally noticed her gaze as well, and he didn't dare to look at her: "Brother Shi, come over here, I just wanted to tell you something."
"Okay... Luna, what were you going to say just now?"
"It's alright." Luna shook her head gently with a smile. "Shichen, your business is more important."
"I'm sorry."
"It's okay."
"Kazuma, come over here." Tokichi led Sato Kazuma to a corner of the bar where no one would bother them.
Duster did not follow.
Shichen ordered two beers, and after Sato Kazuma took a sip, he asked, "What did you want to say?"
Brother Shi...

Kazuma Sato hesitated, but finally made up his mind and asked, "...Can I leave your team?"
"Leave my team? Why?"
"I know Brother Shi is very good to me, but I also know that my strength is no match for yours. Being with you would only be a burden to you."
"That's not true."
"No, Brother Shi, please don't flatter me. I know myself very well."
"this...
"After dying last time, I realized that I'm terrified of death. The feeling of death is so scary. Even now, when I think about it, I still can't help but tremble." Kazuma Sato said, hugging himself and shaking.
Are you alright?
"It's nothing... I think I've developed a fear of death."
"It seems like everyone is afraid of death, right? You don't need to think about that."
"No, I'm too scared to do dangerous missions now. I'm fine as I am, doing simple tasks with Duster every day and just getting by."
"Going to the succubus shop every day is considered wasting your life?" Shi Chen raised an eyebrow.
"Uh... I'm going there for psychological therapy."
"So...you've really made up your mind?"
"Well, I've finally come to this other world, I don't want to live a life of constant anxiety, this is fine."
"Sigh, fine, if you think this is good... I'll give you some money, you can buy a house or start a business, just don't be a lazy bum."
Shichen still felt a little guilty towards Sato Kazuma. Anything that could be compensated with money was no big deal, since he didn't care about money anyway, and money was of no use to him.
"How could I possibly accept this?" Sato Kazuma said with a lewd smile.

"After all, I don't want to see you living a miserable life."
"Brother Shi...you're still the best to me!" Sato Kazuma said, his face full of emotion.
"But don't waste it at the succubus shop," Shichen warned.
"Don't worry, I definitely won't!" Kazuma Sato patted his chest and assured him.
"That's good."
Shi Chen got up, patted him on the shoulder with satisfaction, gave him a considerable sum of money, and then left with Huihui and the others.
"Brother Shi! Goodbye!" Sato Kazuma waved gratefully to Shichen.
Shi Chen waved his hand and left the guild without looking back.
After that, he and Kazuma Sato parted ways completely.
