An Invitation for This Knucklehead! (このふてぶてしい
Synopsis[]
Flush with cash and traumatized by yet another brush with death, Kazuma is determined to relax at home for as long as possible... until he hears about the hot springs city of Arcanretia, which results in impromptu vacation plans.
Plot[]
Vanir barges through the goddess Aqua's magic barrier and, following a squabble with Aqua, offers to buy the intellectual property rights to all products created using Kazuma's memories for three hundred million eris. Basking in the prospect of not having to work again, Kazuma and Aqua talk to each other in a pleasant and genteel manner as they laze around their mansion, leading Megumin to believe they are acting out of character to disturb her as revenge for her drawing on Kazuma's stomach in the previous episode. Kazuma suggests hiring adventurers with their fortune to defeat the Devil King for them, to Megumin's outrage and Aqua's adoration. At Kazuma reiterating his fatal neck injury, Megumin suggests they take a recuperating trip to Arcanletia, the city of water and hot springs, an idea which interests both Kazuma and Aqua.
The both of them pack up their luggage early the following morning. Kazuma heads out to the carriage terminal while Aqua goes to wake Megumin and Darkness, but detours to Wiz's Shop in order to notify Vanir about the trip. He hears of how Vanir zapped Wiz unconscious with Killer Eye Beam because she purchased a shipment of faulty magical portable toilets. Vanir asks Kazuma to take Wiz on the trip too, so that in the meantime he can return all the unsellable inventory. Yunyun brings gifts to their mansion only to find it empty.
Carrying Wiz on his back, Kazuma explains the situation to his companions at the terminal and drains the life force from Darkness to revive Wiz. The carriage they bought tickets for has one seat occupied by a pet Red Dragon baby, so through several rounds of rock-paper-scissors, Aqua ends up sitting on the luggage compartment outside the carriage despite her Blessing herself. The caravan sets out from Axel.
The first part of the trip along the highway leading to Arcanletia is uneventful and enjoyable. The caravan passes through a stretch of arid badlands, and Kazuma spots with Farsight a dust cloud in the distance, which the driver reckons is Running Hawkites doing their "Chicken Race", in which they charge at the hardest thing they can find. As the Running Hawkites are heading for his carriage, Kazuma realises that Darkness' hard body is attracting them, though she in denial claims her armour to be responsible.
The caravan stops so the adventurers hired as guards can fight the approaching monsters. Kazuma with a guilty conscience takes his party to join the fight. The excited Darkness charges straight at the flock, and jumps into the Bind unleashed by another adventurer so that she can get tied up. While the bound Darkness blissfully awaits the horde of males, the adventurer is stricken with guilt, thinking she acted to prevent the Hawkites from targeting him.
