Funeral, what should I do if I reincarnate as a demon?

He was a little troubled by the sudden problem that was thrown at him...but seriously thinking about the convenience of having a monk, he had no reason to object, so he simply walked out.

As for where Zain was...he almost didn't need to look for it, he just came downstairs and saw the other person.

Because - there is a tavern running under this hotel.

In that tavern filled with the smell of smoke, Zain, who initially seemed a bit serious, now, although he was still wearing a monk's uniform, had a cigarette in his mouth and a wine glass in his hand. What's more directly in front of you are playing cards.

Including Zain and the three people at the same table, they all had copper coins in front of them.

No matter how you look at this scene, it looks like... gambling.

This made Yaxiu accidentally think that he just wanted to eat meat before, and Zain said something like "What are you talking about to the monk?", and he couldn't help but subconsciously complained when he stepped into it:

"...Among the monks I know, you are definitely the most alcoholic."

"This is called enhancing friendship~ By the way, are you coming too?" Zain was not ashamed at all, but instead smiled generously:

"I heard from my eldest brother that he wants me to join your team. What do you say?"

"Of course it would be more convenient to have a monk."

"Give up~ I'm a monk in this village. If I join you... No, wait." Zain revealed a sinister smile midway through his words:

"If you think about it seriously, it's not interesting for three people to play cards. How about you join in? As long as you win, I will go with you."

"....Surprisingly simple."

"Is it easy? If you lose later, don't you want to be stripped down to your underwear?"

"Anyway, please teach me the rules here first."

Unexpectedly, there was such a simple condition, so Ash simply sat on the table and asked the clerk to bring him a glass of wine. He smiled pitifully towards Zain and the village chief next to him, as if they were pitiful beings.

He really couldn't think of a reason why he would lose to the opponent... He might not be able to match his luck, but in terms of hand speed - no one at the scene could see clearly.

............................

Ash unexpectedly easily integrated into the poker game. Even at the poker table, after three rounds of drinks and three tables...

Looking at the piles of copper coins on Ash's table, Zain couldn't help but start to doubt his life: "——Why!? 10 consecutive wins! Is this really your first time playing cards?!"

"It's just a little bit of luck for a newbie." Ash looked calm and calm: "Now that I have won, are you willing to admit defeat?"

"No... I'm just talking casually. Could it be that you still think..."

"Really? I think so." He didn't care, and looked at the village chief with a smile, who was slamming the table in annoyance: "Mr. Village Chief, and Mr. Claus, I can pay back whatever I won today. I give it to you, but in exchange...can you strip him down to his underwear and throw him out?"

""——Of course there is no problem! ! ""

"Eh? No...wait, wait! - don't, let me go! At least... inside...!!"

The strange conditions made Zain stunned for a moment, and then he saw the village chief and the poker player agreeing in unison, staring at him eagerly, and then he wanted to beg for mercy, but he was directly pushed to the ground by the two of them and stripped naked. clothing.

The shrill howl resounded throughout the entire tavern instantly.

Ash also considered the impact to some extent, and finally asked the two of them to leave him extra shorts. It seemed that he would not become inappropriate for children, so he threw him out of the tavern.

He himself accepted Zain’s money, walked out refreshed, looked down at the uncle with his butt in the air, and said leisurely:

"This is what you get for cheating."

"...Don't think that this will make me give in. I am a dirty adult. Am I still an adult who makes compromises easily?"

"I don't care. Anyway, it's just a try. If it doesn't work, Fulilian and the others will come to persuade you, and I can just watch the show."

"You...what do you think of adventure? Why are you always watching a show!?" Zain turned around, looking like he hated iron, and scolded him like a decent passionate protagonist: "—— Frankly speaking, I don’t see any passion in you!”

"Adventure? No, no, no, I'm just casually taking a walk outside. Why do you want to get excited?"

"....Just a normal walk?" The incredible answer made Zain slightly startled: "Aren't you guys heading all the way to the north...?"

"Compared to these things, which are all good, don't you think you should adjust your posture? If you keep talking to me with your butt like this, I won't be able to help but want to kick you."

"Hey, young man, you don't understand. In fact, this posture is also helpful for clearing the head - it hurts~!!"

Zain, who remained lying on the ground with his butt sticking out, took out a cigarette from his shorts, and was about to light it for himself while telling him a certain path, when a sudden shock came from his buttocks, which made him feel painful. Covering his butt, he curled up into a ball on the ground and glared angrily at the man behind him: "You actually kicked me!?"

"Didn't I say I wanted to kick?"

"——But can normal people kick?"

"I think I'm quite normal." He responded lightly, and squatted beside the uncle who was curled up on the ground, holding his buttocks with tears in his eyes: ".... Then, don't you really want to consider it?"

".... Do you think a normal person would agree to the request of a villain who was stripped down to his underwear?"

"I asked them to leave you shorts."

"——Even if there is one more shorts, what's wrong?! You kicked my butt." Zain touched his buttocks with a humiliated expression, and while shouting in grief and anger, he was already worried about whether his buttocks were swollen.

"Who told you to have such a perky buttocks, and in front of me?"

"I say... At this time, can you at least apologize?"

"You broke the contract first."

"Uh... Can we just pretend that this didn't happen?"

.........

Facing the casual and rude Ash, Zain lost to him in a card game, and lost quite thoroughly, which made Zain swallow his complaints even if he was kicked in the buttocks.

After all, he was just saying it casually, and he had no intention of taking risks with them.

At this moment, he could only curl up on the ground, looking at the bright night sky, and silently lit a cigarette for himself as a mourning.

.............................

.............................

Since the tavern was downstairs, Fulilian and Philen naturally heard the noise easily, and almost immediately, they rushed downstairs curiously to check the situation downstairs.

You don’t know until you see it, they were so scared that they couldn’t speak.

Ash was squatting on the ground, but Zain in front of him seemed to have suffered an unreasonable violence and curled up on the ground.

I don’t know who stripped off his clothes, leaving only shorts to maintain the last bit of face, but he was shivering in this cold spring night.

Before they could ask about the situation, they saw Ash poking Zain's arm with a branch on the ground, and then he turned his back to them and gave them a strange condition:

"If you agree to fulfill the contract now, I can return the clothes to you, or...are you going to go back to the church like this?"

"...At this time, you should at least return the money to me, right?"

"No, that's not possible. I earned the money with my own ability. Why should I return it to you?" Ash refused to pay it back.

This made Ferren, who was still confused about the situation behind him, have a bad guess when he heard this content. He couldn't help but walked forward with a gloomy smile and leaned over to whisper in his ear:

"——Master Ash...what are you doing?"

"Ah, it's really too much. I just asked you to recruit teammates and it would be fine if you worked hard a little, but you actually stripped people naked? This is too much anyway."

Flillian squatted beside him and sighed like fanning the flames.

This made Ash unable to hold back, and he slapped Fulilian on the head, and said sternly: "This is just a reckless and weak loser, who is seeking death."

"What loser?" Ferren, who had already grabbed him by the collar, heard this and pulled him up, and asked puzzledly: ".... Did you use force?"

"How could I bully others casually? We were just playing cards together happily, and he was the one who lost miserably."

"Damn... The village chief was as strong as a ghost, and this guy was even stronger than a demon. He couldn't even win a game...! I doubt if I can regain the courage to sit at the card table tomorrow!"

Zain muttered angrily, and shrank on the ground again, looking like a big child who had been wronged.

"....It's gambling? None of you monks are serious." After learning the truth, Fulilian couldn't help shaking her head and said, "But forget it... Zain, didn't you say you regretted it before? Don't you want to come? Let's go to the north with us."

"... I also said that it was a long time ago. I should have caught up with him earlier, but now I am just a down-and-out uncle... with only underwear and shorts left."

Fulilian closed her eyes and thought for a while, then slowly said serious words: "... I'm talking to you about the present, not the past."

"Now? Now I'm your teammate. Let the village chief make me like this now!"

"Huh? Uh... Is, is it?"

Fulilian's serious expression froze, and she couldn't help but look at Ash on the side.

However, Ash also quietly shifted his gaze, staring at the night sky in the distance, with a faint smile on his lips, and pretended to mutter to himself: "The moon is really big today."

"...What is this? What are you saying that is so vulgar and indecent."

Even Fulilian couldn't help it now, and wanted to roll her eyes.

Firen was even more displeased, frowning, and said sternly: "--Hurry up and return the clothes! The money too!"

"Why? That's my ability..."

"Gamblers are the worst! I hate Ash gambling!" Feilun's cheeks were puffed with anger, and he said with his hands on his hips: "--And bullying is wrong! This is what you taught me before, right?"

Although she looked angry, the purple-haired girl looked like a pufferfish, which was unexpectedly cute.

This made Ash couldn't help but sigh as if surrendering, and then he took out Zain's money bag and threw it next to the uncle on the ground.

"...It's obvious that I've been talking for so long to no avail, but this kid actually listened when he got angry?" Zain looked at the lost and recovered money bag in front of him and couldn't help but doubt his own eyes.

“Because Ash has always doted on Feilun~” Fulilian chuckled and shook her head, but when she looked at Zain again, she showed a particularly serious expression:

“Zain.”

"What?"

"...I really hate you, so I decided to recruit you even if I was forced to do so."

"——No? Why? It's too baffling, isn't it? By the way...what's going on with your team?"

Zain, who was frightened by Fulilian's strange words, looked confused. He looked at Ash and Feilun for confirmation, but all he saw was Ashi touching Feilun's head.

And Feilun's feeling of ambiguity from the beginning has turned into a cute smile, and the atmosphere between the two seems to be very harmonious.

This made him confused for a while. What relationship did Feilun, who originally took care of these two people, have with them.

But after they left, he silently returned to the tavern...with a trace of tears unwilling to be defeated, he put back on the clothes that had been taken off by the village chief.

And he was alone in this cold night, looking up at the night sky and blowing out a smoke ring, then returned to the church full of doubts.

.............................

.............................

Zain never would have thought of it, and he couldn’t figure out how Ash could be so good at playing cards for the first time.

But... Feilun and Fulian only had a brief understanding of the situation, and based on their understanding of Ash, they could probably understand that he was probably cheating.

After all, under normal circumstances, Ash would lose at the beginning, but he would definitely not accept defeat. With his exaggerated speed when killing the mountain master, he could use it in playing cards in the village... He could cheat openly, right?

It's strange to kill everyone. Even the king of gambling doesn't have that kind of hand speed.

As a warrior who stands at the pinnacle of "humanity", if he goes to play cards with the villagers, other than the bullying that Fearon said, nothing else will happen.

Normally, no one would gamble with such a powerful fighter, but...

"Master Ash, really... what on earth am I going to say to you?" Although most of his anger was gone after being touched on the head, Fearon was very calm about him not only playing cards, but also coming back, admitting that he came with the speed of his hands. After cheating, he couldn't help but look troubled.

He must be a very remarkable person. Not only did he play cards with the villagers, but he also cheated...

But he lay on the bed silently, simply pulled the quilt over himself and pretended to sleep, and asked Philan to say a few words to him, but there was nothing he could do.

I could only remind him that I had to brush my teeth before going to bed at night, and then I temporarily went back to my room to pack my luggage.

Fulilian was still sitting on the chair next to the bed, swinging her legs freely. After a long time, she looked up at him and raised her legs, unceremoniously inserting her cold little feet into his. In bed, or even directly on his stomach:

"Wake up, Feilun is gone. I have something to tell you."

"Are you polite? Just talk about it. How can anyone put their feet directly into someone else's bed? And..."

"——I took off my shoes and washed them before going to bed."

When he opened his eyes, he heard a series of complaints, but before she could finish speaking, Fulian's face was expressionless and she just replied with one sentence.

After a moment of silence, he couldn't help but let out a long sigh. Although he had no intention of getting up, he lay on his side and stared at her seriously:

"Although I want to praise you for taking off your shoes, but you lack normal common sense and may not know it clearly. Your behavior is still very impolite?"

"Really? But didn't you say before that friends should not pay attention to trivial matters? We have known each other for thousands of years, right? After all, when you first woke me up, you always directly..."

"——Very good! Let's put this topic aside for now. You win!" Fulian's sudden mention of the past made him sit up quickly and interrupted: "Let's discuss it now. What do you want?" Just say it!”

"What? You feel so guilty all of a sudden..." After being together for a long time, Fulian, who was unusually slow, could roughly tell what he was thinking.
