Chapter 116: Disturbed by Money

"You, why did you bring me to this place? What do you want me to do next?"

Aqua originally wanted to grab the boy by the collar and cry out questioning him like that, but looking at the boy with his collar grabbed, his youthful face and a pair of clear eyes, yet made her, as a Goddess and also an adult, her self-esteem not allow her to show such a shameful appearance.

"Broly, you must be lacking a sense of security, that's why you chose such a trustworthy Goddess-sama like me to come here together with you, right?"

Since I've come to this world, there's no helping it. Aqua took out her self-comfort method. She began to comfort herself that it was because she herself was so outstanding that she would be relied upon so much by such a child. Compared to those powerful cheat abilities, they were more willing to trust her, this Goddess-sama.

"Ah, no..."

Broly just wanted to explain the reason why he chose her, but was directly interrupted by Aqua: "No problem, no problem. After all, I am the great Water Goddess Aqua-sama. Although I have no confidence in defeating this world's Demon King, bringing you, this child, to survive smoothly in this world is still completely no problem. Leave it all to me!"

Aqua told herself in her heart to calm down, then started using her brain to think about what she should do now.

【The one at the side is just a child. The only one who can make decisions now is myself, this Goddess-sama. Think about it. Those reincarnators who were previously transported to this world by me, how exactly did they spend the early period?!】

But after thinking carefully for a while, Aqua suddenly dropped to her knees, presenting a dejected, slumped posture, because she discovered that she fundamentally had not paid any attention to those people's affairs after being transported to this world.

But can this be blamed on her? This can't be blamed on her, right? There are so many departed souls needing reception every day. Although the number of people transported to this world isn't large, they've all already been transported to other worlds, so they should be managed by that padding-bra junior. What does it have to do with me, the great Water Goddess Aqua?

Reception work is so tiring every day. Who has time to pay attention to reincarnators' affairs? Whatever about Goddesses paying attention to them, those are just polite words. Who would have thought that one day, I myself would also be brought to this other world that has nothing to do with me?! Aqua's heart was roaring. Broly, looking at the happiness value prompt in the Crystal Palace that couldn't get any lower, looked at her with some worry.

"Are you all okay?"

Suddenly, someone nearby asked. It was an adventurer party. They saw a cute girl bringing a strangely dressed child, lying prone on the beginner street hugging her head shaking it up and down wildly. Their behavior was a bit strange, so they came over to ask.

"I'm fine, but she looks very troubled. She says she wants to bring me to survive smoothly in this world."

Broly replied.

"Oh!"

This group of adventurers understood. In these times, an older sister bringing a younger brother to Axel to make a living is also quite common. Who told this place to be a beginner adventurer town? The monsters around aren't too powerful.

"Then your older sister must be troubled because she can't find the Adventurer's Guild, right? No problem. We're just preparing to go to the Guild to settle quests. If you don't mind, you can come with us."

Hearing this, Aqua on the ground was stunned for a moment, then rallied her spirit.

"That's right, Broly. The first thing after coming here should be to go to the Adventurer's Guild and register to become a Professional."

This world has the Goddess Clan's protection. For ordinary people to become Professionals, the best method is to go to the Adventurer's Guild for certification.

"If you want to register, go to that counter over there."

Arriving at the Guild, the adventurer party who brought the two over gave Aqua directions.

"Thanks. I, Aqua-sama, Goddess of the Axis Cult, will repay your guidance favor."

"Wait, you're from the Axis Cult?"

"Yeah, so what?"

"N-no, it's nothing. We still have to go settle quests. Forget about repaying favors. We won't disturb you further."

This group of adventurers originally wanted to bring the two to register, but after hearing Aqua call herself the Goddess of the Axis Cult, their expressions immediately changed, and they left here as if fleeing.

"Don't get involved with Axis Cult people. Those guys all have brain problems..."

Faintly, Broly could hear the departing people's evaluation of the Axis Cult. And the other people in the Guild, upon hearing 'Axis Cult', also distanced themselves from Aqua here one after another.

Even though she, who entered, was a pretty beautiful girl, when she entered, she had still received quite a lot of attention from adventurers.

"Strange. I originally still wanted to give each of them a Goddess Blessing as repayment after finishing the Professional certification."

Aqua muttered, and did not discover the situation where the atmosphere inside the Adventurer's Guild changed because of her appearance.

"Let's go, Broly. We'll go do the Professional certification now."

Broly followed Aqua to the registration counter. The one receiving them was a gold-haired older sister woman. Hearing the two were here for Professional certification, she gave them two new Registration Cards, but...

"Registration isn't free. Please pay the registration fee."

Aqua felt her pockets. Her pockets were empty. As a Goddess, how could she possibly carry money she doesn't need?

"Broly, do you have money?"

Aqua, not feeling any money, very naturally asked the boy behind her.

This made the gold-haired receptionist behind the counter involuntarily sprout some black lines on her forehead.

"No."

Broly shook his head. Planet Wanpa doesn't need money either.

As for exchanging Happiness Points for money? Hmm, those forty thousand Happiness Points were spent clean long ago.

"Can we put it on credit?"

Aqua asked the gold-haired receptionist behind the counter.

"Sorry, our Guild temporarily doesn't have this credit service."

Aqua and Broly sat at a table in the corner. A waitress came over to ask what they wanted to order. Broly was just preparing to order, but Aqua dismissed the waitress a step ahead.

"We're still thinking. Please don't disturb us."

"Is that so?"

The waitress saw the two's embarrassment and didn't say anything more.

She just served two cups of free water and left.

"You don't want to eat anything?"

Broly asked. He could see the Aqua before him was in a very bad mood.

"Broly, you're young. You might not yet be able to realize the serious problem we're facing. Eating here costs money, and we can't even pay the registration fee to register as Professionals right now. Ah, what exactly should we do?"

Aqua hugged her head. She had never thought that as a Goddess, she would one day be troubled by something as vulgar as money.

Broly also became serious, realizing that money in this world might be very hard to earn.
