Surprise! I've Transmigrated Again

Chapter 198 - 198 ⤞ Healing Magic Cannot Heal Mental Wounds

The collapsed mansion in the suburbs.

Within the covered ruins, Adam used Magic to hold up a small space, protecting the women behind him at the critical moment.

◈ Wind Magic ⫸ El Fura ◈

He used Magic again to break through the rubble above their heads, finally seeing daylight.

He turned to the women behind him with concern, "Are you alright, Aqua, Darkness, Megumin? Are you hurt?"

"That idiot Kazuma!"

"What a shame I didn't get to experience the pleasure of being crushed by the collapsing mansion."

"Ah, I'm fine, no worries."

Though their responses varied, they were clearly uninjured and still spirited. A relief.

"Oh right, Kazuma!" Remembering that Kazuma had been at the explosion's epicenter, Adam called to the women perched on the ruins to help

Their urgent priority was finding a new place to stay.

Should they stay at an inn again, or perhaps stay with someone else? Maybe at Wiz's Magic Item Shop?

'Wiz, our mansion has become ruins, so please let us stay for a while. We'll pay rent and help organize the shop, please' — or something like that.

Adam would be happy to use this roundabout way to lighten that poor shop owner's burden, and more importantly, the party members could develop their relationship with her.

Killing two birds with one stone!

"..."

No, no, no! Never mind, forget it.

With Wiz's personality, she would definitely agree to let the party members stay without even thinking about it. Still, he decided not to ask her, fearing they wouldn't end up helping her and would just cause more trouble instead.

These problem children would definitely do something like that. Better not to bother her.

Should they stay at an inn then?

But inn expenses were high, and for the 『 Hero 』 Party currently buying rare ingredients, it would put considerable strain on their finances.

What to do?

Just as Adam was having trouble deciding, another member of the party appeared.

It was Bill from logistics/blacksmith.

"What...what happened here?!" Bill gaped at where the mansion had stood, now nothing but ruins.

"Oh, it's Bill." Adam greeted him, "Well, there was a bit of an accident. As you can see, our house accidentally became ruins."

"Oh...oh." Seeing their dejected expressions, the big man thought it better not to pry.

"By the way, what brings you here, Bill?"

"I came to deliver your equipment." Bill lifted the package in his hand, "The new equipment you asked me to forge is complete. When I was walking nearby, I saw an explosion shoot into the sky, so I rushed over."

"I see. Thanks for your concern, Bill."

"What are you saying? Aren't we companions? I'm a member of the Hero Party too!" He laughed heartily while patting his chest, then asked with concern, "By the way, now that you've lost your home, have you decided where to stay?"

"No, we're still thinking about it. Haven't made up our minds yet."

"In that case, how about staying at my place?"

"Eh, is that okay? Won't we be bothering you?"

"It's fine, it's fine. I happen to have several empty rooms in my backyard. Though it's not as nice as your mansion, Lord Commander, it can still accommodate a few people."

"Really? Thank you so much!"

And so, the party members found a new place to stay.
