Me, a priest? How could that be!

Chapter 52 He thinks he can be the clan leader so quietly?

Charlotte didn't see the girl's face. The shame of having her underwear exposed made her cover her skirt and squat down, burying her face in her chest, ashamed to be seen by anyone.

However, judging from her attire—a black robe, a black cloak, a silver wand, and a short sword at her waist, reminiscent of the Crimson Demon race—I could already guess who she was.

"Isn't that Youyou?"

Huihui said that.

Sure enough, the girl who suddenly appeared was none other than Huihui's best friend, the next leader of the Crimson Demon Clan, Youyou!

"Megumi, Megumi...!"

She slowly raised her head.

At this moment, her cheeks and eyes were as red. When she saw Xia Luo, she shyly looked away, pressing her skirt down with both hands while taking a small step back, as if she didn't want anyone to see her underwear.

Charlotte finally saw what she looked like.

The Crimson Demon Clan is characterized by its red eyes and black hair, which is tied up with a ribbon. She is slightly taller than Megumin and has a slender figure. Her mature face reveals her inner strength, and she is quite a beautiful girl.

He exudes an aura of reliability, giving the impression of a top student who could be a grade committee member or student council president.

By the way.

Yoyo's height and physical development are much better than Huihui's; simply put, she has a baby face but huge... Ouch!

Charlotte felt as if she had been secretly pinched.

Oh dear, it seems someone's jealous.

"Youyou, what are you doing here?" Huihui looked at her and asked, "Didn't you say you were going to learn advanced skills to level up? Why are you here?"

"It's because I heard that a headless horseman came to cause trouble in this town, and that the town was flooded and caused incalculable damage, so I came."

"That's strange, this has nothing to do with you, Youyou, right?"

"How could it not be related! Because Huihui, you're here! You, you...you're my...peng, peng peng peng————"

"opponent."

"...What?"

"We are rivals."

Youyou's expression froze.

Hearing Huihui say that, her heart must have broken. She fought back tears and said pitifully, "N-no, that's right! Huihui is my opponent. If you accidentally get killed by the Headless Horseman, I...I...I'll be so sad!"

In the end, she couldn't hide her worry for Huihui and revealed her true feelings.

What a good child.

"That's it." Huihui looked down at Xia Luo again. "She's the one who claims to be my rival, named Youyou. She's not someone worth remembering, so it's okay to ignore her."

"oh oh……"

It turns out Huihui was explaining things to herself.

Charlotte blinked.

Only then did Youyou notice Xia Luo, and she immediately assumed a fighting stance, shouting, "I almost forgot! Let go of Huihui right now, don't even think about hurting... her... huh?"

Only then did she realize that it wasn't Charlotte bullying Huihui, but Huihui bullying Charlotte—the position of woman on top of man clearly showed who was in control.

Charlotte, who was lying on the ground, waved to her.

"Excuse me, it seems I missed my chance to introduce myself. I am Charlotte, nice to meet you."

"I...I'm Youyou, nice to meet you."

She bowed respectfully.

"—No way!!" Megumin suddenly shouted, startling Yoyo. "That's not how it is! The Crimson Demon Clan's self-introduction... Where did you go with the Crimson Demon Clan's reserve and pride?! You still want to be the next clan leader like this!?"

"Wait, wait a minute, don't say that!... I know, I know!"

Tears welled in Youyou's eyes.

What happened next was probably embarrassing, but under Huihui's pressure, she had no choice but to strike a strange pose and flick her cloak.

"I am Youyou, a Grand Magister, skilled in high-level magic! And I will eventually become the next Crimson Demon Clan Chief!"

"Your voice is too soft! You think you can be the clan leader if you speak so softly! Speak louder!"

"Yes, yes!! I am Youyou! My profession is Archmage! I am skilled in using high-level magic! And I will eventually become the next Crimson Demon Clan Chief!!!"

Youyou shouted with all her might.

To Charlotte, this scene looked more like Megumin playing with the yo-yo.

Take advantage of this momentum.

Youyou shouted, "Huihui, I'm here to settle this with you! As agreed, I've learned advanced magic, and then I'll defeat you and claim the throne of the Crimson Demon Clan! That way, when I become the clan leader, no one will have any complaints! Come on, Huihui, let's settle this with you!"

A deep determination was hidden in her eyes.

Declare war on Huihui.

However, Youyou quickly turned her head away somewhat awkwardly and whispered, "Um... Huihui, why don't you stand up first? What are you doing in such an improper posture?"

Their momentum immediately diminished.

Huihui's eyes darted around, and she said with ill intent, "What do you think I'm doing, Youyou?"

"……what?"

"You see, there aren't many things you can do in this position, so it's easy to guess... Right, back in school, Youyou was a top student, so she probably didn't know, right? Look, look."

Under Youyou's shocked gaze, Huihui actually mimicked the motion of riding a horse, bobbing up and down.

"Wait, wait...Megumin!? Such a shameless thing, on the plains... in front of everyone..."

"What are you doing? Come on, tell me! You should know, right?"

"No, no...don't do that..."

"What's wrong? Didn't you say you wanted to have a showdown with me? If you can't even handle something this small, you're not qualified to be my opponent. What a pity, if you can't face it, you'll be stuck in second place forever! Come on, tell me... don't be shy!"

"Megumin...Megumin...you big idiot! I'm never talking to you again!!!"

Youyou turned and ran away.

As she turned away, tears still glistened in the corners of her eyes.

It seems that this kind of thing was too stimulating for the pure-hearted next leader of the Crimson Demon Clan. She was no match for Megumin and was driven away with just a few words.

"We won! We won!"

Although Huihui was also extremely embarrassed, her eyes and face were frighteningly red, she still clenched her fists triumphantly, and her indomitable spirit was fully displayed at this moment.

Then, as if she could finally relax, she weakly and helplessly threw herself into Charlotte's arms.

"Phew... Charlotte, please take me back."

"You..."

Charlotte sighed helplessly and said, "You're obviously so shy, why do you have to say things like that? Won't people misunderstand? Maybe rumors will spread in the Crimson Demon Village that you're an immoral child."

"It doesn't matter! Even so, I can't lose to her!" Huihui's eyes were red. "Besides, I can't use magic today, so how can I compete with her?"

You're acting like you're being wronged.

Charlotte desperately wanted to prove his innocence, but what should he do? It felt like he had just been used as a tool.

At this moment, Huihui took out a small notebook and started writing and drawing on it.

"……What are you doing?"

"Of course, we should write down today's competition."

Just how unwilling are you to admit defeat?

Furthermore, why should such a victory be recorded? Don't you feel ashamed?

However, Huihui believes that today's victory, achieved through her intelligence and innocence, is even more worthy of being recorded.
