Chapter 40 - Won’t You Sleep Tonight?

"All the difficult hunting quests are completed!?"

Kazuma couldn't believe it. He slammed the table in front of Luna hard, his shout even drawing the attention of almost all the adventurers.

"Huh? Yes! The difficult quests that have been quiet for a long time are basically all completed today, it's really amazing! It's all thanks to the incredible teamwork of Ethan-sama and his team members!" Luna maintained her signature perfect smile, though her smile now seemed like genuine happiness.

And this smile, in Kazuma's eyes at this moment, was no different from the smile of a devil!

Because…

"AAARGH! What if there are no more difficult quests!?" Kazuma couldn't accept the reality. He covered his head with both hands and knelt on the ground, a white soul seemed to be escaping from his mouth!

"Hey hey, kid, even though your team has three high-level professions, didn't you almost die hunting the Giant Toad? How dare you want to take on difficult quests, no matter how much you desire the reward, you should know your limits! Money lost can be earned again, life lost, you lose everything!"

An adventurer who looked like a thug spoke casually as if a senior was advising a junior. It would have been fine if he hadn't said it, but once he did, Kazuma immediately flew into a rage!

"Of course, I know that! But you don't know that our team is an elite team specialized in handling difficult quests!"

This wasn't just random nonsense, but the reality was indeed so. Although Kazuma and his four team members, three of them were a bit crazy, but those three crazy people were exceptionally skilled in certain aspects.

Plus, with Kazuma's guidance, they even managed to complete the difficult quest of Hunting Beginner's Banes they accepted today!

This made Kazuma realize that his team wasn't for completing simple quests, but for hunting high-level enemies!

Hence, this scene occurred, Kazuma, a person who might even die doing beginner quests, dared to accept difficult quests that even first-level adventurers would think twice about!

Not to mention Kazuma is now so poor that he can only live in a stable, he desperately wants the high rewards from difficult quests to change everything!

"Indeed, as Kazuma-sama said, Kazuma-sama's team, although might die doing beginner quests, surprisingly has a talent for difficult quests. Then, how about trying to accept this quest?" Luna's smile turned a bit evil!

"Gulp~"

Kazuma swallowed his saliva!

◆━⊰✧⊱━◆

What happened in the Adventurer's Guild, Ethan and the others had no idea, and they didn't want to know either, because…

*CLINK!*

At Ethan's villa, the four of them raised their glasses and clinked them together, as if celebrating.

Of course, what was in their glasses wasn't alcohol, but fruit juice, because apart from Ethan who was already eighteen and an adult, only Eris didn't know how old she was, she had been an adult for a long time, while Iris and Yunyun, those two little girls, weren't adults yet, they were still at the age of minimum three years, maximum shameful death penalty!

So why were they celebrating?

"Today is truly a great harvest! Not only did we defeat the One-Punch Bears, but we also defeated the Manticores and Griffins, high-level monsters that have long been troubling Axel!"

Ethan was the first to finish his drink, the satisfied expression on his face coupled with the three girls around him made people can't help but think inappropriate thoughts.

"Yes, when I left, Luna kept holding my hand with a face full of gratitude! But with this, the people of Axel can enjoy a peaceful life for a long time."

Eris maintained her gentle smile, it seemed she was very satisfied because they had defeated many high-level monsters thus bringing happiness to the people, which made Ethan can't help but praise, no wonder she's the family goddess, her heart is indeed kind and cares for the world!

"Thanks to the incredible strength of Ethan, Chris, and Iris, those terrifying monsters could be destroyed!" Yunyun also joined the conversation with a face full of happiness, though her nervous demeanor made Ethan and Eris glance at each other, then both laughed together.

"No need to be so nervous, we are all friends and comrades who fought together even our hearts are connected, just relax!" Ethan patted Yunyun's head, he smiled happily.

Really!? Wouldn't he say after Yunyun finished speaking, then with disgust say: "Why is this slut so stupid? Doesn't even understand small talk!"

Yunyun who just wanted to say those words immediately shut her mouth because of Ethan's head pat, she lowered her blushing head and only whispered softly: "Yes, we are all friends!"

"Seriously! Brother is taking advantage again to grope sister Yunyun!" Iris pouted unhappily, then her body leaned closer to Ethan, her slightly lowered head seemed like she wanted something.

"Huh?"

Seeing Iris like that, Ethan was initially stunned, then his smile became exaggerated, almost reaching his ears, his hand holding the glass immediately threw the glass far away, then stroked Iris's soft golden hair.

"Meow~" Iris made a sound like a comfortable cat, she squinted her eyes as if feeling very comfortable.

"Aww~, hugging two underage girls, what a perfect life!" Eris maintained her perfect gentle smile, provided that you ignore the glass dripping unknown liquid on her head!

Clearly, the glass that Ethan just threw was so lucky to land right on Eris's head!

What luck!

Ethan's heart was filled with confusion at this moment!

Why is Eris's luck value so high yet still got hit by a thrown glass!?

Seeing Eris's extremely gentle and kind smile, Ethan didn't feel any warmth at all, instead, he felt a chill!

Remember, although Eris is a gentle and kind goddess, she's also a very mischievous and cunning goddess!

Her mouth slightly opened, as if she was saying something without sound.

Ethan's face immediately turned pale!

Because he adhered to the principle that many skills won't harm, so Ethan even learned skills like lip-reading that had nothing to do with combat, but now he deeply regretted why he learned this damn skill!

Because Eris just said "Tonight you won't be at peace!"

Ethan suddenly felt the two girls beside him were no longer cute, even the luxurious dishes made with expensive ingredients and Eris's incredible cooking skills seemed unappetizing.
