Chapter 142 I Really Want to Be a Dragon Knight

They formed a bond.

—Although that's what she said, Charlotte didn't really have any good ways to fight back. She could only try her best to cooperate with Serena's work so that she could catch the bastard who framed her as soon as possible, but the hope was very slim.

The inconveniences of the Middle Ages were on full display at this moment.

"By the way, I wanted to ask about this." Charlotte stroked the dragon egg. "It won't be taken away as evidence, will it? If that happens—"

5000W is a small matter.

Charlotte really wanted to be a dragon knight, and she would be devastated if the dragon egg was taken away.

"Yes, it should be kept as evidence."

"Hello!"

"--Although that's the case, Mr. Charlotte has decided to cooperate with the prosecutor to find the real culprit, and the dragon egg might be an important clue to find the culprit. In addition, the culprit might return. Therefore, based on my judgment, it is better for Mr. Charlotte to keep the dragon egg safe."

Serena gave a very businesslike response.

She seemed cold and aloof, but she was actually quite sensible; she didn't confiscate the dragon egg. After registering the dragon egg and completing the necessary procedures, Charlotte left the police station with Serena seeing her off.

The streets were bustling with people; it was already evening, and the adventurers were returning to town. What should have been a lively occasion felt strangely lonely to Charlotte.

Because no one came to pick him up!

Damn it, does she think she won't be imprisoned or anything, so she doesn't care about me at all? That's really too much!

Just as Charlotte decided to go back and complain to Kazuma and the others, she saw a familiar figure recruiting believers on the street.

"Everyone, please pay attention to me here!" Aqua waved her arms and shouted, "I'll be providing you with the goddess's home service! Just leave it to me, and I'll clean your houses until they're sparkling clean!"

What is this guy doing?

Speaking of which, Aqua previously said that she wanted everyone to understand that she was a true goddess, so she had to show off her cleaning skills—could her so-called cleaning skills just mean working as a housekeeper for others?

Hey, don't do that!

Isn't it pathetic that a goddess like you has to do cleaning for others?

"Goddess?" A passerby who was walking past Charlotte muttered in surprise after hearing Aqua's shout, "What is that woman saying?!"

His words triggered a chain reaction, and the crowd began to whisper among themselves, looking at Aqua with a mixture of resistance and pity, as if they regarded her as a madwoman.

"Don't get me wrong, I really am the goddess of water!"

Seeing the skeptical looks from the crowd, Aqua quickly retorted, "The proof is that as long as you use my purified water to clean, any dirt will be instantly spotless!"

That's true.

The mansion's cleanliness—especially the toilet—is usually cleaned by Aqua. Every time you go in, it's so clean that it's impossible to relax.

On a whim, the pedestrian asked, "Oh, I see—my toilet is very old, can you make it clean?"

"Of course! I can make it as clean as new! And it's completely free, a real treat!" Aqua said proudly, giving a thumbs up. "But I have one condition: you must follow the faith that springs in your hearts and tell everyone around you how amazing the goddess is!"

"They're not charging any money—"

This is incredibly tempting.

The pedestrian nodded seriously and said, "It's a piece of cake if I just need to spread the word to the people around me! Could you please help me clean the places in my house that use water?"

"Yes, thank you for your help with my family too!"

"And please take care of my house too!"

Pedestrians crowded around.

As expected, free things are very attractive. Apart from seeing old people collecting free eggs before his reincarnation, this was the first time Charlotte had seen so many enthusiastic people gathered together, especially with that idiotic goddess as the object of their attention.

"—Wait, wait! Stop arguing, stop arguing!" Aqua quickly waved her hand to signal them to calm down. "Goddess Aqua only has one body, but this feeling of being relied upon by everyone—I haven't felt this way in a long time. Indeed, for me, being a goddess is my calling!!"

A smile appeared on her face.

Although it looked good, Charlotte had already foreseen a tragic ending and, determined not to get involved, he decisively took a detour back to the mansion.

"I'm back."

"Welcome back!" Kazuma Sato raised his hand to greet him. "Strange, where's Aqua? Didn't she come back with you?"

"Aqua?"

"Yeah, I told her to pick you up at the police station entrance and buy groceries for dinner on the way back—didn't you see her? Tsk, where did that girl go off to play? She's so unreliable."

Upon hearing this, Charlotte realized that it wasn't that Sato Kazuma and the others didn't care about her, but rather that the people they sent weren't very reliable.

"Actually, Aqua is one..."

He told Sato Kazuma what had just happened on the street, and Sato was speechless after hearing it. The two looked at each other.

"Ignore her."

"Yes, you're right."

They reached a consensus instantly. Clearly, they all believed that Aqua's fate wouldn't be good.

They proved to be right.

a few days later.

Charlotte and the others were leisurely drinking in the guild hall.

"Hoo-ha—!" Aqua chugled a drink, letting out a sound like a middle-aged man, "After all that effort, a glass of sparkling wine is just too good to be true!"

She's been leaving early and returning late every day these past few days. Although she looks exhausted, her spirits are rising, and she seems to be enjoying herself. Although Charlotte and the others felt the final outcome wasn't good, they still quietly helped her.

Charlotte ordered another sparkling wine for Aqua, asking, "Thanks for your hard work. Did you get any response?"

"Of course!" Aqua proudly pouted her little nose. "I spent the whole day today helping several families purify the water systems in their homes!"

Hearing her say that, Huihui and Darkness felt a little strange.

"What exactly happened?"

"Has your volunteer spirit awakened? Or are you actually resistant, but forced to serve others? That's great!"

They were unaware of this.

Or rather, Aqua's previous outrageous remarks were not taken seriously by the two of them.

"No, that's not true at all. I'm a compassionate and kind goddess, you know. Don't you think it's only natural for everyone to do good deeds and accumulate merit?"

"Oh, is your old problem acting up again?"

"Doing charity work is a good thing, that's true, but impersonating a goddess is a bit...——"

well.

They still don't trust me, just like before.

"Just tell them I'm not an imposter, but a real goddess! The whole town must be talking about me now—"

Aqua said this angrily.

Just then, someone in the union spotted her and shouted in surprise.
