....

Everyone in the basement of the abandoned church gathered around to see Kazuma's status together. The room fell silent for a moment until Hestia broke the silence.

"Wait a minute, what is going on with his status? Aqua, explain this to me!"

Hestia grabbed Aqua and shook her, demanding an explanation.

"What do you mean? You've seen Kazuma's status, haven't you? Look at him—he's so weak. Sure, Kazuma can be reliable sometimes and can do anything if he tries, but he's still the weakest of the four of us."

Aqua, with her low intelligence, still couldn't grasp how surprising Kazuma's status was. Instead, she continued to mock him.

"And look at his magic section—every spell he has is locked, pffft. Doesn't that mean he can't use any magic right now?"

"That's not what I meant! Look at how many spells he has! He has a ton of magic! That's definitely not normal! Most people can only have up to three magic slots in their status, and getting even one spell is incredibly difficult. Even if someone studies a grimoire, there's no guarantee they'll obtain magic."

Hestia explained how difficult it was for most people to acquire magic and how absurd it was that Kazuma to have a lot of skills and spells.

"And that's not all—skills are also incredibly hard to obtain. But look at Kazuma; he has a lot skill too!! What exactly was he doing before he got here?"

Kazuma crossed his arms, a smug smile spreading across his face.

"Hestia-sama, there's no need to be so surprised. You just need to know that I went through many trials and hardships to help this useless goddess."

Hestia raised her eyebrow but decided not to respond to Kazuma's boast. 

Bell's eyes widened, filled with admiration.

"A-a-amazing! You're so incredible, Kazuma-san! You have so many skills and magic. I'm so jealous—I hope I can have that many soon."

Kazuma chuckled, brushing off Bell's words.

"Hahaha, no need to be impatient, Bell. You'll get there soon enough. Tomorrow, we'll head into the dungeon. With the help of the great Kazuma-sama here, you'll become a strong adventurer in no time."

Kazuma said this in a slightly arrogant tone, his nose somehow resembling Pinocchio's, as it seemed to lengthen and sharpen. He glanced over at Megumin and Darkness with a look that seemed to say, Come on, be amazed. Witness the greatness of Kazuma-sama!

Frustrated with Kazuma's antics, Megumin rolled her eyes.

"Tch, Kazuma, don't be so arrogant. Just look at all your magics—they're locked. In the end, you'll still need the help of my strongest magic."

"Megumin, are you jealous? Sooner or later I will unlock all of my magics, and I can also do your explosion magic too!"

Darkness chimed in, a curious smile on her face.

"Kazuma, I heard that you did something crazy with Vanir before that last fight, but who would have guessed the result would be this amazing?"

In the middle of this, Hestia suddenly asked Aqua,

"Wait a minute, Aqua, you said Kazuma is the weakest among you? Don't tell me Darkness and Megumin are stronger than Kazuma?"

"That's right, Megumin and Darkness are much stronger than Kazuma."

"W-well then, maybe Bell and I should wait outside until you finish giving Falna to Megumin and Darkness. I don't want to be sent back to heaven because I might die from shock."

Hestia grabbed Bell's hand and led him outside the room. Megumin also shooed Kazuma away; there was no way she would let him watch Aqua give her Falna. As for Darkness, that was still up for debate.

.....

Megumin placed her beloved staff in the corner of the room and slowly removed her robe and wizard hat. She lay in the same spot where Kazuma had received his Falna earlier. 

"Aqua, hurry up and do it!"

Megumin urged Aqua to give her Falna quickly before she started thinking strange thoughts. Aqua pricked her thumb with a needle, repeating the process she had done for Kazuma. 

But then something strange happened during the process. Normally, people who received Falna started their status at I 0. Although all of Megumin's stats initially showed I 0, they suddenly changed. The numbers increased, with her magic stat being the most prominent, suddenly rising from rank I to rank SSS.

Before long, Megumin had received her Falna from Aqua. Then, Aqua, Megumin, and Darkness all looked at Megumin's status together.

...

"Oh, just as expected from Megumin—no one can defeat you in magic!"

Darkness was not surprised to see Megumin's status aligned with her expectations. But there is one thing she can't understand.

"Wahahaha! Of course, I'm Megumin, a member of the Crimson Demons. No one can surpass me in magic!!"

"By the way, Megumin, your status is already enough to rank up to level 2, but you need to get an achievement or high-rank excelia. Hestia said that as long as one of the adventurer's basic abilities has reached D-rank and you have a great achievement, you can rank up"

"But, Aqua, why didn't Megumin start from 0? Didn't Hestia-sama explain to you that all adventurers start at 0? Kazuma's status also started at 0, and all of his magic was sealed. But why doesn't Megumin's?"

Darkness couldn't contain her curiosity as she noticed the difference between Kazuma and Megumin.

"Now that you mention it, that's true. But when I first gave Megumin her Falna, her status did start at 0, so I don't know why it suddenly increased."

Megumin crossed her arms, tilting her head slightly upward, speaking in a somewhat arrogant tone.

"Well, well, Darkness, don't think too much about it. Isn't the answer obvious? It's because I'm too strong and Kazuma is too weak. Now it's your turn, Darkness—take off your armor and lie down."

Darkness slowly wearing off her black armor. This was the armor that was given to her by Kazuma. She promised to herself to taking care of this armor carefully and decided to make this as a herloom for her family. 

The armor itself is looks very scary. Just by looking it, someone can tell that it is not a normal armor. Someone might call this cursed armor but for her this was blessing given by the man that steal his heart. Even though Darkness keeps trying to save Kazuma from any noble in Axel but in the end, it was Kazuma who saved her from a noble who want to marry her. He throws away all his wealth just to save her. It was impossible for Darkness not to fall in love with him. 

Despite wearing heavy armor, Darkness was able to remove it easily without assistance. Beneath the armor was a tight black outfit that covered Darkness's body. The outfit clearly highlighted the beautiful contours of her figure. Especially in her chest part. That black clothes really showing off her big breast.

She quickly took off the outfit and lay down on the sofa, showing her back to Aqua. For some reason, Darkness felt a bit uncomfortable lying on this sofa; it felt like something was bothering her. Perhaps it was just her imagination.

Having given Falna twice before, Aqua was fairly experienced. She repeated the process, giving Falna with greater efficiency than before.

"Alright, it's done. Darkness, Megumin, let's check it together!"

.....

Seeing the status paper, Darkness couldn't help but feel embarrassed. Her face turned as red as a boiled shrimp. 

"PFFFFT" 

Megumin and Aqua couldn't help but laugh when they saw Darkness's status.

No, it's not about her negative status. They would never care about something like that. But about her name. Accustomed to calling her Darkness, they had almost forgotten that Lalatina was her real name.

"Lalatina, don't be shy. There's nothing wrong with your status!"

Megumin patted Lalatina's left shoulder to encourage her, while Aqua did the same on her right.

"Megumin is right; there's no reason to be embarrassed about your name. I've said it before, haven't I? I think Lalatina is such a cute name." 

"DON'T CALL ME LALATINA!"
