So what's the point?:
During our travels and although it wasn't that much of a pleasant experience, I have learned, few things about Mei
Both good and bad, And although I may want to kick her down a hill sometimes I just don't.
cause even though she's a walking flaw she also has her moments,
Like; she does own up to her mistakes (most of the time), She cares about others feelings and help out (Sometimes)
And although she can probably just ditch me and go ahead herself she stays with me(always)
And sometimes even make sure I eat and drink enough.
She sure isn't a good person but she ain't a bad person either, she's kinda like me in that regard
And I think that's my perspective and views on her isn't that low after all.
Oh by the way the scenery changed a bit since last time, and we seem to be entering some sort of a forest, By the fact that we pass by more and more trees and stuff like that.
And where's there's a forest A city should be nearby!
It's the normal setting for any Isekia story, So I am kinda happy (kinda)
Because we won't be that long on the road from no on!
(.... Right?)
"What are you thinking about, Don't tell me you have fallen for me?"
"In your dreams... Actually I was thinking about the reason why you just don't go yourself and leave me behind, I mean you are a God and all, you can just go get a strong adventurer party and end the whole test thing right?"
"Yeah, No"
"What..?"
“I can't leave you really, you see you and I are kinda linked together, and on this whole test we are a team, So
even if one of us defeat the demon king without the help or presence of the other, We probably won't finish the test and be stuck here”
Oh I see, So she doesn't wanna leave me for that reason huh?
.... I kinda lost every bit of the abysmal respect I had for her.
“It is time already don't you think?”
“Time for what? For you actually to be and act like A God?”
“...To tell me Why are you really still going, is the Thought of A divine reward really that appealing to you?”
Mei was silent for a moment and the sge started asking me seriously with a calm voice while looking me in the eye.
I stood there for a second thinking about Why do I really still keep pushing forward, I mean I don't have much to live for, And sometimes I kinda wishes I was dead, Is the almost non existenting chance to get what I want really that Good?
Will I really keep going even when I start facing strong monsters and know for sure I was sent to a souls like instead of casual Rpg?
...
I stood there thinking for a while and the answer I came out with
“Fu## Yeah, It's as appealing as it gets!
Happiness is Good!”
Mei looked at me with a bit of a surprise expression on her face and then smiled
“Is that so? I guess try hard, going against the current people like you is a good thing for the world”
“... Mei”
“Cause the rest of Us can just watch your struggles and laugh to our heart content,
It's no A tragedy my boy, It's a comedy, A divine Comedy at that, better get used to it”
Okay now I have decided if I saw a swamp, Swamp puppies will eat good.
...
.
“cant you act like a God every once in a while?
Can't you like boost my morals or something, The whole 'you are the only hope, Go ahead Yuusha I will be with you' stuff, can't you like be Like THAT?
Be A GOD??? ”
“Hmmm, If you mean those gods you see in your mangas, Yeah just forget about it,
But if you mean the real God, Yeah sure I will be more than happy to watch you and judge you when time comes, how about that?”

We kept going back and forth for a while
Arguing endlessly.
Until we heard some noises in the bushes behind us, I thought it was some wild animals so we got there to take a look.
And what was hiding behind those bushes Was Two Ara Ara Looking Lamias!!!
“Okay I don't know what's going on but I am invested now!”
I said with a straight face but Mei shut me down saying I should at least try to hid it.
“Ohh Hello there Humans, Nice seeing the two of you here”
The older one talked to us And the younger one followed
“Are you lost, Want our help?”
They seemed all nice and stuff while trying to get close and personal
Stuff that despite everything Wasn't really appealing to me
“...Hmmm yeah can you like show us where the closest Habitable place is,
My partner got hungry and kinda ate the map, So please help us out by showing us the way and then go first, While We stay Here”
I said with a blank face
“Ohh so you two are lost, Luck on your side today, We were heading to the town nearby So come with us and we will show you the way”
The older one said with a grin on her face.
“Ah no actually my partner have like a good memory so he knows the way, if you can Fu#$ you will do us A Biiig favor, Snake san”
Mei said with An even more blank face
..
.
Both me and Mei knew or more accurately suspected that these two doesn't wanna help us and they are just waiting for an opportunity, my past experiences told me to not get involved and play dumb for now.
“Oh come on, we are just offering help here,
no need to be all jealous about your boyfriend, We don't bite I swear”
The older one liked her lips as she said that
“Oh is that so, But I kinda do Bite, And I am so jealous in stuff regarding my Husband, So again please Fu#* off”
“Yeah she's right, My future girlfriend here Is really jealous, She tries to shut my eyes each time I go to the market”
And like that we continued in the Fu##ing around and making No sense act.
Although the younger one kept whispering to her 'Sister' that she has a bad feeling and to get away from those Two weird people(which is Us)
that doesn't make any sense when they talk, The older one was presistent on whatever she was trying to do.
..
.
While they were talking I signalled to Mei if there's anyone else around,
It seemed to be only the two of them,
So getting us to lower our guard and get closer seemed to be the play The older one was going for
“....Sigh you know what?
Mei I think we should just beat them up”
“Yeah agreed”
Mei gathered water from the atmosphere and made a water sword that she threw to me to use,
And then she engulfed her hand in the shape of a large blade, like she usually do (Although this time it looked stronger for some reason)
Mei was ready to strike, And positioned herself to launch directly toward the older one,
Cut the head if you want to dispose of A snake,
The older was The Head So she was going after her.
“Miss Lamias let me say this just once, My partner here is as crazy as it gets if we start fighting I won't be able to stop her from what she's going to do to you, so if you wanna keep your scales on your bodies and your heads attached to your necks now's the time”
Mei was ready to go any second, Her pupils was in the shape that of A dragon Like Pupils,
They were beautiful and yet They looked bloody and deadly.
“Ah okay, Sorry for trying to mug... Ah I mean sorry for taking your time, then See ya”
The older lamia said and then Left followed by the younger one.
“.... The fu##?”
It was casual as it can get, like bumping to a man on the street he bows to you apologize and then leaves, That how they acted just now. It was confusing and kinda anti climactic... I felt a bit disappointed.
Did I wanna go and beat the living hell out of these two Muggers and let all my anger that I have in my heart for the scums that put me in position where living under a freaking bridge away from people was my best option after beating some of them and the it spiraled from there!!!
Absolutely ... Not, yeah of course I am a noble man how can I hit a woman right?
...
..
“Hmm, Sora what do you think?”
“I Don't know really, but bugs like them never give up easily so we better be ready if they decided to show up again”
“I see, I'd rather go after them,
But if you think we should stay,
I will stay”
“... Going after them could be a part of their plan or something, and they could have some people waiting further ahead...
So...
It's too early to do anything other than, 'leave this place as fast as possible' ”
“To put me in a fighting position and got my adrenaline rushing for a moment, Next time they show up, I will make them regret the day they were born”
“Tch, You sound like a thug more than they do, At least they had the Ara Ara aura around them, Again You sure you are a God?”
“What, betraying me already?”
“Nah, I will take a useless pain in the ass, goddess instead of this Bugs any day of the week”
“I should really beat you back to your place, For all the shit you are showing me,
But again I will be the Bigger person and let you Brat be Well... A BRAT”
Mei seemed to not dislike My 'Kind' words.
..
.
We left that place and continued towards the way Mei believes A town could be
(Why do I keep following her?
Wakaranai
Are we Lost?
Wakaranai)

And end up Wakaranaying A lot of things,
