Good morning, Megumin.

This is for you.

What's with this?

Do you like me?

You act like you are making a bento for the beloved one.

It feels a bit burdensome to me...

I don't want to compete with you today.

The reason I made a bento is to ask you not to bother me.

You speak as if I am a rude person who extorts bento from you.

Although I'm not much better than you, as I challenge you every day,

you are indeed a rude person.

Everyone, good morning.

Recently, Yunyun seemed a bit off.

I heard that the monster believed to be

under the control of the evil god that appeared before

has been spotted in the village recently.

We cannot take this situation lightly.

Even though our preparations are not yet adequate,

we have decided to gather people and reseal it.

The ceremony will last from tomorrow evening to the following morning.

Now, let's announce the results of the test conducted a few days ago.

As usual, those who rank in the top three can

receive skill-enhancing potions.

The third place goes to Nerimaki.

I only need four more points

to learn the explosion magic that I've always wanted to learn.

Arue ranks second

and Megumin

ranks first.

Good job.

We will learn how to make equipment items on our first class.

Everyone gathers in the home economics classroom.

Don't just sit there silently doing things like that.

You're making me feel embarrassed.

What's wrong with you?

You didn't even make it to the top three in the test.

I remember you only need three more points to learn advanced magic,

while I still need four points to learn what I want.

Is it okay with this?

You finally have the chance

to graduate earlier than me.

Look at this.

I don't want to compete

with you today.

Is that so?

Sure enough, Yunyun has been a bit strange lately.

(Konosuba: An Explosion on This Wonderful World!)

(Episode 4: The Solitary and Proud Girl with Red Eyes)

Everyone,

I heard that the candidate for the brave has come to our village.

I know...

Actually, I saw him yesterday.

He is a very cheerful and handsome guy.

I heard he is recruiting highly skilled wizards

to defeat the Devil King.

Since he's known as a candidate for the brave,

he must be an excellent person.

And he must be someone who appears in the Hero Legend.

One day, I too will join the team

of brave candidates as a wizard.

No matter what difficulties I face, I will bravely confront them

without resorting to despicable means or expedients,

and fight our rivals openly.

Then, using my magic powers,

I will defeat all of

the Devil King's subordinates and enemies

and make my name known throughout the world.

After defeating the Devil King,

I will sit on his throne as the new Devil King.

Megumin...

What's wrong with you? You suddenly burst out laughing.

Are you okay?

I was thinking about something important just now, so I didn't hear what you said.

Is there anything wrong?

I want to talk to you about something when we go home.

Megumin.

What exactly does

friendship refer to?

Although I know you're stubborn,

I didn't expect you to not even understand the friendship.

I know. Of course I know what friends are for,

like going shopping together or hanging out.

But that's not what I meant.

What I wanted to say is that

although you often ask me for things,

you have never asked me for money, right?

Of course not.

I am very clear that I cannot cross that line.

If I extort money from you,

you might ask me to repay the debt with my body instead.

I would not make such a request.

And my thoughts are the same as yours.

But Funifura, she...

Does she want you to lend her money?

No, it's not like that.

Let me tell you...

The thing is,

Funifura's cute younger brother got sick.

But...

Because of this, I'm a bit short on...

money to buy medicine.

So I think we should do something for her.

Therefore, I plan to help her raise funds.

Yunyun, you will also help, right?

After all, friends are facing difficulties.

But I still feel that giving money to her

is very impolite,

so I am a bit hesitant about whether or not to give her money.

What do you think about this, Megumin?

I don't have any money at all.

So I will find other ways to help her.

Other ways?

For example,

wearing masks and robbing pharmacies with friends.

In that case, lending her money will be a better choice.

Friendship should not only be about giving,

but also sharing hardships together.

In other words, if you are starving,

I shouldn't just give you a bento,

but endure it with you.

No, that's totally different.

However, if a friend is truly in dire straits and very troubled,

I think it's okay to lend her money.

I worry about money all year. Would you consider helping me out?

You just casually mentioned that you don't have any money, right?

I got it.

Thank you.

No problem.

Hey, Megumin, Yunyun.

Isn't that Mr. Bukkororii who was dumped by Soketto

and hiding at home feeling down?

Be quiet.

Don't say that.

Worrying about me like this will hurt me more.

And I haven't confessed to her yet,

so it's not like she dumped me.

You're really optimistic.

After all, the world is waiting for me to awaken now.

Honestly, I don't have time for love and romance.

Are you referring to the monsters that are under the control of the evil god?

Yes.

Why don't we just break the seal of that evil god

and mobilize everyone in the village to hunt it down?

Some people have expressed opinions like yours.

In fact, it's because our ancestors brought

the sealed evil god from another land here

specifically for sealing here that has caused all these problems.

Hmm, why did our ancestors do such things?

Hmm, you ask why?

The name "Village of the Sleeping Evil God" sounds cool, right?

You should also think that this name is cool.

In addition, there are a forbidden weapon

that could lead to the destruction of the world if taken away,

a puppet whose name has been forgotten, a vengeful goddess and etc.

Our village has sealed all sorts of things.

Although this situation is very troubling,

I am somewhat interested in that forbidden weapon.

Right?

Is it interesting? I feel like only I...

Only you have deviated from the principles of our village.

Komekko, I'm leaving for school.

Be careful.

Be a good girl and stay home.

Okay.

Thank you, Yunyun.

I will definitely repay you.

No, it's okay.

We are friends.

The class is about to start.

Yunyun, you can leave first if you want.

Okay.

I always feel

a little uneasy.

Since that's the case, why don't you just not do such things?

Megumin, when did you come here?

Where did you start eavesdropping from?

From when you threatened her to obey your sexual requests

if she didn't want her embarrassing secret revealed.

I never said that.

It's because my younger brother is sick

and I need money to buy medicine.

We just wanted her to donate some money to us.

That would have been better if you had come to discuss it with me.

Huh?

What's wrong?

Would I surprise you by helping others?

No, it's not that. Well...

aren't you extremely poor?

We feel embarrassed to borrow money from you.

I'm going to kill you all.

Do you want to lend us money?

How could I possibly lend you money?

Who do you think you're talking to?

This guy...

All you need is medicine, right?

Can you get the medicine?

Leave it to me, the most outstanding genius of the Crimson Demon Clan.

So, let's begin our lesson

on making magic items.

You can use your favorite materials

to try to make potions.

Let me show you my magic skills.

It seems like you're doing something interesting.

Let me help you.

Are you done with yours?

Yeah.

Then please help me out.

I won't let you do this.

Don't interfere with me.

How could you turn this cute Farfetch'd into medicine?

Although it looks cute, it's actually a monster.

There are also terrifying monsters in the world that look harmless.

What you said is true.

Okay, calm down.

We only need the scallion that it's carrying on its back.

Will this make you feel at ease?

Because we heard that scallions are very effective for treatment,

especially the scallions from Farfetch'd,

which are considered to be of the highest quality among all types of scallions.

Come on, what do you take me for?

I also cherish cute animals.

I'm sorry for what I said earlier.

But, I heard that Farfetch'd is a rare monster

that gives a lot of experience points when defeated.

It's also well-known as a premium ingredient in cooking.

You fool, Megumin!

Why did you call us to this place,

Farfetch'd Killer?

If you use that nickname again,

I will make sure you regret it.

Yunyun has been deeply affected by what happened today

and has been crying non-stop.

It's all because of the two of you.

This is the medicine I made for treating illnesses.

Take it.

Then you won't need to borrow money from Yunyun anymore.

Wait...

I'm not sure if this medicine works yet.

It doesn't matter.

Whether your younger brother is sick or not, it has nothing to do with me.

She did not lie.

What I want to say is about the fact that

you gained wealth by taking advantage of kind people

who are afraid of loneliness.

She is the one whose intelligence is second only to mine,

how could she not notice the true reason behind your actions?

Don't be so angry.

It's scary when you act like this.

Here, I'll give the money back.

Please don't take advantage of her kindness and simplicity anymore.

You really like Yunyun.

Did you misunderstand something?

Yunyun and I are not even friends.

Okay, okay, stop talking about it.

What kind of relationship do you have if you're helping her so much

while you're not friends?

How should I put it... We should be considered rivals.

From a third-party perspective,

I feel that you are very close to each other.

Megumin, your eyes have turned red again.

At times like this, Crimson Demon Clan cannot lie.

It's really troublesome.

Anyway, we won't hold it against you this time,

but you'd better not be too arrogant.

Wait, what're you doing?

What I just said is just a line for threatening before leaving.

You shall understand the situation clearly.

(Konosuba: An Explosion on This Wonderful World!) Farfetch'd.

Where did you go while leaving Blackie here?

This is...

Did you give them the medicine

and then ask for my money back?

As a realist, how could I possibly help others

without getting any benefits?

What you said sounds very convincing.

I've been waiting for you all along.

Don't leave me behind.

As a reward, let me treat you to something to eat.

I did say that I would treat you.

Although I really did say that I would treat you...

Slip.

I am Torotsuke.

I am the top pancake master of the Crimson Demon Clan,

and will soon be the owner of 500 chain stores.

You are such a good eater.

Your love for my food

makes me happy and grateful.

I follow the principle of eating as much as possible when food is available.

Can I take a short break?

As long as I get another skill-enhancing potion,

I can graduate.

Megumin, with the potion you got yesterday,

we should both still need three more skill points to graduate.

Is it because of Farfetch'd this morning?

I gained two skill points

and leveled up because of that.

No... It can't be.

I can't believe we won't graduate together,

especially since I adjusted my skill points to match yours.

Did you adjust your skill points to graduate with me together?

And did you intentionally not make it to the top three in the recent test?

How could you be so foolish?

If you want to graduate with me,

even if you have enough skill points,

you shall just not learn magic.

You not only didn't know that you could postpone learning advanced magic,

but also didn't tell me that you wanted to graduate with me.

You actually did such a stupid thing.

Even if you are clumsy, there should be a limit.

Because...

I have unconsciously surpassed you,

and I always thought you are better than myself.

You just said you surpassed me?

No, you didn't.

You didn't surpass me at all.

I have to tell you now that

I've already accumulated enough points to learn advanced magic,

but I don't plan on using it.

Because what I want to learn is a more powerful finishing magic.

A more powerful finishing magic?

Do you mean the explosion magic?

Yes.

Are you serious?

So what if it is?

You are the fool.

Even if you learn that,

most people won't be able to use it due to inadequate magic.

Even if you can use it well,

it's just a funny magic that can only be used once a day.

They say there is only a fine line between genius and foolery.

It seems like you are the fool.

If you continue to call me a fool,

I will make sure you regret it.

I have already prepared myself for that.

I have researched more explosion magic information than anyone else.

That's why I say this with confidence.

Why?

Of course, it's because I like explosion magic.

You are not a genius but a fool.

I warned you.

I won.

It's the first time I've defeated you.

Because I didn't use all my strength.

As long as there is no full moon, I cannot exert my full power.

You're not from the demon clan,

so just admit your defeat honestly.

I lost...

So please let me go.

After all, I just finished eating a lot of food,

so I can only use half of my strength.

You are really cunning to find an excuse after I let you go.

Let me ask you.

Do you insist on learning explosion magic

really just because you like this magic?

You should have other reasons.

I was actually attacked by a magic beast when I was young.

Return to the ultimate explosion

and sleep.

Explosion magic.

At that time, a wizard passing by repelled the magic beast for me.

She was using explosion magic at the time,

with a destructive force that was

overwhelmingly violent

and powerful.

It was truly amazing,

and its power completely lived up to the title of strongest magic.

After seeing that scene once,

I don't want to learn any other kind of magic.

After I learn it, I want to meet that wizard again

and ask her,

"How well I have used the explosion magic you told me about."

Speaking of which, it's great that

you can defeat me once before I go on my trip.

Are you planning to travel after graduation?

Yes.

Do you have a travel companion

in mind?

With your magic, you can definitely use explosion magic,

but after using it, you will be defenseless.

Therefore, you need someone to help you.

After all, I am just like you. How could I have a travel companion?

Why are you so proud to say that?

By the way, are you not going on a journey immediately?

Yes, because I cannot leave my younger sister behind.

So I will temporarily work in the village.

How about you?

I will become the clan chief someday.

Before that, I want to accumulate various experiences.

Although you are helping me now,

there will come a day when...

I will protect little kids like that Farfetch'd.

How come there's Farfetch'd in a place like this?

I've found the side dish for dinner.

Megumin, you fool.

Megumin.

Hasn't the resealing of the evil god

already been completed?

Come with me.

Komekko...
