Thief And Flying Cabbages
*Inside the guild*
[ Third Person POV]
We see Aqua and Megumin sitting on the bar waiting for their friend, Charlie, to show up.
[Aqua's POV]
Aqua : Drunk a glass of wine. "Damn this shit's good! Ahh.."
Megumin : "Hey! Can I have a sip? Please?"
Aqua : "No, you're too young for this! Wait till you are seventeen." Looks behind and sees Charlie walking towards them with a bag. "Speak of the devil! Look who it is. We're waiting for ages. By the way, you're looking handsome on that outfit. Come here."
Megumin had a nosebleed here while I just smirked at her, thinking of ways to tease her. Anyway, Charlie sat beside her left while I sat right. Kid was basically between us.
Charlie : "Here you go girls. Look what I bought."
He gave me and Megumin our respective things as we both tried our items and said thanks in return.
Aqua/Megumin: "Thanks."
Then we started talking about accuaring new skills as Megumin got excited and and leaned closer to Charlie's face. It went something like this....
I was drinking and watching Charlie interect with the kid at the same time.
Charlie : "How do learn a new skill?"
Megumin : "First, you gotta find someone with the skill you want to teach you how to use it. After they do, the skill will appear on your card. And to finish it, just transfer the points over to the skill."
Charlie : "So let me get this straight, if I wanna learn Explosion Magic, I've to learn it from you?"
Megumin : "YES EXACTLY!!! THAT'S ALL YOU'D HAVE TO DO Charlie!!!!! IF YOU WANT TO LEARN EXPLOSION MAGIC, I CAN TEACH YOU AS MUCH AS YOU'D LIKE!!!! When you think about it, is there any other skill that is more worthwhile to know? No there most definitely is not."
Suddenly Megumin got way to close into his personal space. By that, I mean inches close to his face. It looked like they're about to kiss.
Megumin: "JUST SAY THE WORD AND WE SHALL WALK ON THE PATH OF EXPLOSIONS TOGETHER!!!!!!"
Charlie : "Look kiddo, I'll learn it later, not now. Aqua told me that skill points are valuable so yeah...."
Megumin : "I'm just a kid.....?"
She chew her carrot silently, it looked like she was broken by Charlie's words. Poor girl.
Just then, outta nowhere, this blonde chick along with a white hair girl came from behind and called out Charlie.
??? : "Charles Cross!"
Charlie : "Hey Darkness, glad you could make it. Meet Megumin, the one in red dress. Arch-mage." Points to her.
Megumin : "Nice to meet you."
Charlie : "Next, we've Aqua. My best friend and she's an Arch-priest."
Aqua : "Pleasures all mine."
Darkness : "Earlier, you're discussing about learning a new skill, right?"
Charlie : "You got me. See, I've five points to spare and I wanna spend it on something good. Something that'll come in handy. Know any particular skill like that?"
Darkness : "Chris, get over here girl." She signalled the white haired girl to come here as she introduced herself to us.
Chris : "Fancy meeting you Charlie. I'm a thief. I can teach you some thief skills at a cost of a drink. They cost one or two points. I can guarantee that it'll be beneficial for you in the future. Whaddya say?"
Charlie : "Easy. I'm down. Yo, give the thief a drink."
Chris : "Charlie!"

[ Darkness' POV]
*In an alleyway beside the guild*
As I can see, my friend's teaching Charles her thieving skills. I was cleaning my sword sitting on a barrel and just watched how It went down.
Chris: "There are all sorts of thief skills, like 'Lurk' and 'Enemy Detection' but I recommend this one in particular. Here I go. Watch carefully. Steal!"
A light filled her fist. After the light disappeared, she opened her hand to reveal a small pouch.
Charlie: "My coin pouch!"
Chris: "This thief skill is called 'Steal.' If it's successful, you can take possession of your opponent's property. So that's how you use it."
Darkness: "Cool."
Charlie: "Huh..."
Chris hands the pouch back to him.
Chris: "Why don't you try it out yourself?"
Charles reaches out for his card and browses it and later learns the said skill.
Charlie : "Steal!!!"
The same light filled his fist. After the light disappeared, he opened his hand to reveal.....her dagger which she told me that it was worth 40k eris. That's all I could see and hear from the distance.
[ Chris' POV]
Chris : "It seems you've a fond for weapons. Or rather having a higher luck."
Charlie :"The latter."
Chris : "I see, then you keep it. After all, you earned it."
Charlie : "Listen Chris, I've my weapon which is a black sword, so I'd prefer giving you what's rightfully yours. Besides, it was just practise. Not a goddamn match." He hands me my dagger back.
Charlie : "Alright, let's uhh.....head back. Gotta show 'em my new skills baby! Woo!"
He runs as we do behind him and call out....
Girls : "W-WAIT FOR A SECOND CHARLIE!"
Chris : Konosuba!

* Inside the guild*
[Charlie's POV]
Charlie : "DADDY'S BACK, BITCHES!"
All girls in the guild : "Oh daddy spank me~ I have been a naughty girl~"
My face is now looking a red tomato as I look and whispered...
Charlie : "Shouldn't have said that. Should not have said that..."
Aqua/Megumin : "Ya think?!"
Aqua : "Anyway, were you screwing around or picked a new skill or what?"
Charlie : "Sure did! Check this shit out! Steal!!" I said as I aimed at Aqua.
The light emitted from my hand and blinded everyone. After that light disappeared, I opened my hand to find Aqua's necklace.
Aqua : "Huh? What the fu..? Starts to feel empty on her neck and looks down to find her necklace gone. Charlie! Give that back!"
Charlie : "Only if you say please." I said as I started tossing her necklace between my hands.
Aqua : "Please." Angry pouts.
Charlie : "Here you go." I handed her necklace back and she wore it quick as a lighting.
Charlie : "Alright, now who wants to-"
I was interrupted as we heard Luna screaming mic.
Luna: "Emergency! Emergency!"
Charlie: "What now?!"
Luna: "All adventurers please gather to the front gate at once!! Keep the children safely in indoors and those who are not adventures as well!"
Our party then gets up to run to the front gate hearing panicked voices from panicked voices from pedestrians.
A/N: Let's use Rp for Random pedestrian.
Rp: "No way, it cant be no one told me it was happening today!!"
People start shutting doors and closing windows.
Rp: "Dont let the children outside!!"
Charlie: "I am so confused."
The gang and other adventurers then make it to the front gate getting battle ready.
Charlie: "Hey what's going on there? Is something coming?! Guys what's the emergency? Is there a monster?!"
Darkness: "Charles stay close to me I will protect everyone. Time to shine! Yeeeeaaaaaaa!" She screamed as she took a fighting stance and run off. Megumin goes and stands on a stone for some reason.
Aqua then walks up to me and give me the lowdown but here's main part, she walked up to me while welding a bucket at the same time.
Seriously, unbelievable..... Let's her out and then judge.
Aqua: "Didn't they say its cabbages?"
Charlie: "You fucking with me right?!"
Megumin: "A storm is coming." she says as her cape blows in the wind.
Aqua: "Bring out the mayonnaise!"
Charlie : "Are you fuckin' kidding me? I better get paid for this shit. Or else......!"
Just in cue, suddenly a pack of wild cabbages start to fly towards the town, everyone gets battle ready.
Quest: Defeat all the wild cabbages flying into to the city.
R/P: "Charge!!"
People start charging towards the cabbages leaving me confused like a four year old who just happened to encounter a printer.
Aqua: "The one who scores the highest will be the winner. The loser will do what the winner says. Deal? Deal. Anyway, in this world cabbages fly, when they reach optimal flavor and harvest season approaches. They dont just sit back and let themselves be eaten, its said that they careen through cities and grasslands cross the continent and ocean, and finally pass away in a secluded region not known to man without being eaten. Got it? Let's goooo!" She said as she took down even eight cabbages in one go using her Water Slash skill.
Charlie: "I see, well I'm going on a cabbage kill spree."
A cabbage then flys towards me, as I draw out my sword and slice it in half then kill more of them.
Luna: "Everyone! The anual cabbage harvest season has arrived! This years cabbages are fine quality and will go for 10,000 eris per head. Please capture as much as you can and put them in these cages here."
Charlie: "10,000 eris?! This is great I'll have to kill alot more! LET'S GET THIS SHOW ON THE ROAD!!!!"
I scream as I charge to a large group of cabbages and kill them instantly with one slice.
Charlie: "This is too easy!! Now to kill some more!!" I say with a murderous intent.
[ Aqua's POV]
I was laughing maniacally as I was slashing them non stop. Then my attention turns to Darkness and this is what I see.....
Our hot headed Crusader was screaming at the top of her voice as she was slicing them but sadly she got the half of them. Never be reckless. Darkness saw this adventurer getting from what I can see from there, she was got infront of this guy and started slashing and becoming a wall.....What the fuck!
Darkness and the guy was arguing about from what I can hear and assume from here, was talking about Darkness' sacrifice and she'd protect herself. She, I think scolded the adventure who made a break for it as she continued her business or should I say.....her 'practice'. I also heard a lot of people praising her and cheering her on. Just then Megumin called me out.
Megumin, who was standing beside me on a large rock.
Megumin : "Aqua!"
Aqua : "What?!" I responded as I slashed another cabbage with my water hands.
Megumin : "Can I use my Explosion Magic?!"
Aqua : " Go right ahead give it a whirl!"
Megumin : "Yes! Thank you Aqua! Could I possibly resist the urge to unleash explosion magic when faced with such a large army? No I can not!!"
She lifts her staff chanting her magic spell.
Aqua : "Wait! You're gonna kill Charlie as well! He's there fighting!"
She ignores me like I spoke Vietnamese.
Megumin: "Oh blackness shrouded in light, Frenzied blade clad in night, In the name of the crimson demons, let the collaspe of thine origin manifest, summon before me the root of thine power hidden within the lands, of the kingdom of demise. ex-PLO-SION!!!!"
A orange circle then appears in the distance with Charlie standing on it.
"Boom!"
After everything's blown to shit, I order the two go back to the guild and run towards Charlie as smokes steaming out of his lifeless body. I casted one of my spells and brought him back to life. That spell's called Ressurection!.
Aqua : "Ressurection!. Charlie! Charlie! I casted Ressurection on you. Can you hear me?"
Charlie : "Wait, Aqua is that you? How am I hearing you?"
Aqua : "I'll explain later. Just tell them whoever's in charge to make a portal for you!"
Charlie : "She says it's against the laws of Heaven!"
Aqua : "Who's spewing such nonsense?!"
Charlie : "It's some Goddess name Eris!"
Aqua : "Whatever! I care about your safety. Now, tell her to open the portal or else I've some dirty secrets about her..! She pads-"
Charlie : "She opened the portal! I'm coming!"
[ Charlie's POV]
I slowly opened my eyes and found myself, by that I mean my head, on her lap facing her. My face became red like tomato as I stood up and looked back to see she did the same with a smile on her face.
Charlie : "Uhhh, thanks."
Aqua : "Don't mention it."
I was getting pissed off when I realized what just happened to me!
Charlie : "Aqua, is Megumin behind this?!"
Aqua : "Yeah, well-"
I sprinted towards the guild in rage not caring about the next thing Aqua was gonna say.
When I reached there, I kicked down the door which bought everyone's attention towards the culprit while I my just ignored the crowd and shouted....
Charlie (rage) : "MEGUMIN!"
Darkness/Megumin : "Charles?! How-"/ " Charlie, I can ex-"
Before she could finish, I finished her by knocking her out via my right fist.
Everyone : "What the fuck is wrong with you???!!!!!"

[Megumin's POV]
I slowly woke up to find myself fully....healed? But how then I looked straight and saw Aqua and Darkness looking at me with a smile. And there's another thing. But I didn't see Charlie anywhere.
Megumin : "So uhh, how long was I out? And where's Charlie? Is he angry at me? Did we at least get paid? What?"
Darkness/Aqua : "Relax, will ya?"
Darkness : "Yeah we got decent amount of eris for now. We can all rent a normal inn for now."
Aqua : "Charlie went to the bathroom. Sees Charlie coming from behind me to the group with a disappointed look on his face. " Charlie, look. She's awake."
Charlie sits beside me and doesn't even look at my direction no matter how hard I tried.
Megumin : "For the last time Charlie, I'm sor-"
Charlie : Slams the table. "For the last time, shut the fuck up!"
I looked down as he continued his speech.
Charlie : " We pulled well enough for today. Remember, I formed this party in order to annihilate the Devil King. Our goal is reach from the bottom to the top. Now I would understand if you decide to quit."
Darkness : "No way no how! I'm seeing this shit through the end!" She said as she raised her sword in air. Seeing her, I did a pose as soon as Charlie looked at me with a warm smile which made me blush and I saw Aqua and Darkness with a smug look on their face at me.
I ignored them for now and did my pose.... just like the first time I met Aqua and Charlie.
Charlie : "Alright, welcome to the family! Now, who wants free cabbage?"
Aqua/Darkness/Megumin : "ME!"
Charlie : "Yo waitress, care to give Charlie his cabbage dinner?"
{TIMESKIP brought to you by a chibi Charlie throwing a tantrum}
{Darkness' POV}
Darkness : "Damn this tastes good." Food orgasm.
Aqua : Damn straight! Yo, I've to credit us. We're OP there!"
Megumin : "You with the water flowing hands...."
Darkness : "Charles with the sword fighting......"
Aqua : "Darkness, least you tried."
Charlie: "Megumin's Explosion Magic which killed me....."
Megumin : "Jesus, are you still mad about that? I said sorry like a dozen times already."
Charlie : "I forgave you. Now, mind filling me how much each of you earned?"
Aqua : "Let's see, 10,000 multiply 500 cabbages is....5 million!"
All except Aqua : "What?"
Darkness : "Good for you. So far, I only managed to hit twenty and earned 200k eris."
Megumin : "Zero. Because my Explosion Magic killed all those cabbages to disappear."
Charlie : " Wanna guess?"
Aqua : "Knowing you, I'd say equal like me?"
Darkness : "500k?"
Megumin : "I'm betting with Aqua!"
Charlie : " Heh. Multiply 5 million by 5."
Girls : "No FUCKING way! Treat us!"
Charlie : "It's party time!"
