Chapter 131: Swimsuit Beauty Pageant Finalized

Coming out of the place selling clothes, their assets didn't decrease but increased instead.

"Is your father that powerful?"

Aqua asked curiously, still somewhat shocked that a piece of clothing could be bought for one million Eris.

"Should count as powerful, right!?"

Broly wasn't too sure either; before age three he couldn't beat his father, but after three he could basically thrash his father.

But this "powerful" being discussed, the comparison didn't seem to be about strength, but about making clothes; if it's about that, Broly really had no confidence he could beat his own father.

His old father Paragus, having nothing to do every day on Wanpa Star, just pondered how to use Bay Beast fur to make the most battle-suitable and comfortable clothes.

It can be said that, aside from the look not being very good, Bay Beast Clothes were otherwise very suitable for wearing in battle.

"Right, Broly, I noticed you've been looking around everywhere — what are you looking at?"

The clothes were stored in their personal space, and the two continued strolling empty-handed; Aqua noticed Broly seemed distracted and couldn't help asking.

"I'm looking to see if there's a wife."

Broly answered as a matter of course.

"Eh?"

Aqua's eyes went wide.

【Last night you professed white to yourself, today you've changed your heart?】

She thought a bit huffily, but then immediately reacted.

【A child's words, how can they be taken seriously; and with this kid Broly's personality, last night he definitely didn't want to embarrass me too much, so that's why he...】

Thinking this, Aqua got teary-eyed again; she moved herself with her own daydreams.

"Broly~"

"Eh, Aqua Master, why are you crying again?"

"That's not important; the important thing is, I'll definitely help you find a good wife!"

Aqua clenched her fist, striking a fired-up pose.

"Uh, oh, thanks Aqua Master!"

Broly didn't know why Aqua suddenly got all fired up like she'd been injected with chicken blood, but still subconsciously agreed and thanked her.

Two hours later...

"Hey, Broly, the wife you want to find — no specific traits? Like age range restrictions?"

Aqua asked panting; in two hours, with their astonishing pace, they'd walked nearly all of Axel's streets, yet not a single girl Broly liked had appeared.

"Age range?"

Broly thought a bit, then answered: "Five years old to Aqua Master's age."

"Eh, that range is huge; are there no appearance traits?"

Aqua asked.

Broly thought again.

What common appearance traits does a wife recognized by the Crystal Palace have?

Then Broly reached a conclusion.

"Does 'all pretty' count?"

"What kind of trait is that; we ran into plenty of pretty girls just now..."

Aqua sighed, but having a pretty trait was still better than no trait at all.

"Yeah, wandering aimlessly like this, finding a suitable person definitely won't be easy; we need a more efficient way to find a wife!"

Aqua spoke and arrived under a tree shade, crossed her arms thinking of ideas to help find a wife; Broly watched Aqua's movement and copied her, crossing his arms too.

Only, instead of thinking how to find a wife more efficiently, his mind floated to what to eat tonight.

"Got it!"

"Me too."

"Eh, Broly, you go first."

"Let's eat roast chicken tonight!"

"Hm?"

Aqua puzzled, then directly reached out and pinched the boy's face.

"Weren't you thinking about how to find a wife better; how did it turn into roast chicken?"

"I couldn't think of it, so I thought of food; sorry, Aqua Master." Broly's little face was rubbed and rubbed by Aqua; don't look at his Saiyan constitution being super strong, but when he wasn't deliberately stiffening his face, his little face was still soft and fleshy to the touch, not hard as stone or steel plate.

"Forget it, this still has to rely on me, the wise Water Goddess Aqua-sama!" Aqua vigorously rua'd Broly's little face for a while, and after feeling satisfied said her idea: "Let's hold a town-wide beauty pageant here in Axel!"

Broly wants a wife, a wife is naturally female; to quickly summon the most beautiful women before them, a beauty pageant is undoubtedly the best choice.

"Figure, as long as there's high prize money, all women confident in their looks should come participate in our beauty pageant; then you act as judge and can directly pick the girl you like!"

Aqua's plan wasn't bad, but a large-scale event like a beauty pageant needs filing with the town management, and only after the filing passes can it proceed.

"Miss Aqua, although you're a beautiful priestess, I still want to ask: what is your original intention for holding this beauty pageant?"

Aqua brought Broly to the City Lord's Mansion side; the one receiving them was Prosecutor Sena, who had some doubts about Aqua's proposed beauty pageant event.

Of course, Sena didn't think Aqua was a bad person with ulterior motives, but thought she was someone easily used by others, and wanted to clarify the reasons behind it.

"That's naturally to find a wife for my disciple!"

That kind of reason could never be said out loud, so...

"I just want to reasonably show off my own beauty in public!"

Aqua said so.

"Cough cough..."

Sena, who was drinking tea, choked.

"Just because of this?"

"And also because I want to expand the Axis Cult's ranks here in Axel, adding some beautiful female believers to serve as its figurehead."

Aqua added.

She had already discovered that there were too few Axis Cult believers on the Axel side, so she indeed needed to develop them along the way.

"Hmm, proselytize, huh? But Axis, ah, I'm not saying the Axis Cult is bad, don't misunderstand..."

"Those words of yours make it even easier to misunderstand."

Aqua retorted, not understanding why her such a good sect would not be welcomed.

"Alright, if that's the case, I can approve it, as long as you can handle the funding and venue for the event yourselves. Of course, you also need to submit a separate, more concrete event hosting proposal."

Sena coughed twice, then stated her requirements.

As for the event funding, Aqua and Broly had it — their savings nearing eight figures were absolutely enough. But the venue was a bit difficult; aside from the Central Square, there didn't seem to be any other place in Axel suitable for hosting a large-scale event.

As for the specific process of the beauty pageant, there was even less to say; Aqua had only thought of an idea, there was no concrete process arrangement at all.

However, when in doubt, they could completely just issue a commission at the Adventurer's Guild; there would always be professionals willing to come earn this money.

However, what need was there for any commission? Upon learning that Aqua planned to hold a large-scale beauty pageant event, the adventurers in the Guild got excited like they'd been injected with chicken blood, each and every one of them fired up.

Male adventurers felt they could enjoy a feast for the eyes, while female adventurers, especially the pretty ones, rolled up their sleeves, preparing to earn money by relying on their own beauty.

These people offered ideas one after another; as the saying goes, three cobblers equal a Zhuge Liang, let alone this many adventurers.

"I propose a naked beauty pageant!"

Of course, there were also unserious guys, but the bumps on the yellow-haired guy's head from being beaten proved that there were still more serious people among the adventurers.

"With weather this hot, I propose a swimsuit beauty pageant instead!"

The proposal made by Lynn, who had punched her companion, gained the approval of most adventurers in the Guild.

A beauty pageant is, after all, something to be put on the surface openly; how could they possibly adopt Dust's naked beauty pageant proposal!

【Dust, you are a true warrior. Having Lynn as a partner yet still daring to voice our inner thoughts — what a pity. A naked beauty pageant, a man's dream!】

The many superficially serious male adventurers looked at the yellow-haired youth with two big bumps beaten onto his head, and silently thought.

"As for the venue, it's a bit hard to find such a place inside Axel Town, but we can go outside Axel Town.

That place is a vast plain, plus the surrounding giant frogs and monsters have been subjugated by you master and disciple, so it's quite safe too."

"Right, we can dig a big pit together outside, then use Water Creation Magic to generate a large swimming pool."

"But won't the cost be too high?"

"No problem. At that time, we can collect ticket fees from audience members other than the participants to maintain the event's expenses. Our Guild can mediate from the middle..."

"If we want to attract more people to participate, then the rewards must be extended to lower-ranked participants..."

As they discussed, it seemed Aqua's business was gone; the specific process of the swimsuit beauty pageant was hammered out amid the adventurers' intense strategizing.

Of course, among them were some adventurers feeling guilty, wanting to compensate for the situation of having taken advantage of Aqua, so the leading role still remained primarily with Aqua.
