This choice: Aqua notices Kazuma's face • Go Back...Chapter #4Noticing the Splattered Face by: Kugos The splat that is Kazuma had just been repeatedly smacked and dragged into the skirt of the crying goddess Aqua. All he had done was be ignored, then poke her a bit too much to get too much attention. His mind continues to tell him his mistakes as his exterior is hardly notable as anything other than a goo puddle, almost like a slime he's dealt with already. The goo of his body keeps mentally trying to readjust itself in her palm as it figures out where to place every piece of him to return him to the tiny few centimeter stature he had become.
Aqua on the other hand, is too busy poking at the splat she tried to wipe onto her skirt. Annoyingly sticky she begins to make her way toward the bathroom to wash and scrub it, but after wiping her tearing eyes a bit to see more, she sees the splat moving. Another gross creature in this world she almost feels like puking until she notices a bit of the splat rolling over to se a face gasping for air. Those tiny eyes bugging out, and what looks like brunette hair forming out of it, she blinks a few times before using two fingers to pinch that face and pull it from her hand.
Kazuma finally able to see again sees the useless goddess, appropriately sized now, giving him some strange look. He wants to call out to her again but is too busy catching his breath and can't scream because her massive fingertips come and pinch him together. His efforts to start reforming are immediately undone as his entire head is squished together, followed by intense pain as his head is being pulled hard as if she's trying to remove it from the rest of his body. Instead his entire body like a long string of clay is pulled out mroe and more from her palm as she pulls with all her might.
Finally Aqua's strong grip gives a result as she pulls him up and he's launched into the air over her head and back down onto the sofa. His splat of the body doesn't splat back down as hard has when she slapped him, so it instead bounces and rolls a bit on the cushion allowing her to look down at it. She swears she saw a face, was it one she knew? It was hard to say for the split second she saw it. She wondered if maybe another soul was sent over and Eris gave him a strange ability, or maybe someone was hit by a curse?
Kazuma finally free from the onslaught of pouty goddess is able to feel his body shrink and pull back in, is vision coming together no longer wrapped up in his body, leaving him to lay on the sofa looking up at the one who splattered him. All he wanted to do was hit her upside the head and yell at her, but his body felt as drained as when Wiz used his energy.
"Kazuma!?" Aqua says in surprise at the bug. He sighs happily, he can relax a bit now that she had noticed him. "Pfft." he looks back at her, feeling a vain come in as he looks up at Aqua who has a hand over her mouth looking down at him not trying very hard to hold it in. Bursting into a laughing fit right in front of him "Look at you! You're so tiny and you were just a little splatter like a bug! Talk about really pathetic, a bug sized NEET!" she keeps laughing out, her laugh even louder to him.
Feeling a sense of energy he leaps up "HEY! Whose fault is it that I was splattered?! A worthless goddess that can't even see a few inches in front of her face! Seriously what kind of lousy senses do you have that it takes me to have to shoot you multiple times for your small brain to register anything around you?!" Aqua stops laughing about to fight back, but then she reminded herself of who, or now, what she's about to yell at.
Instead of yelling she just smiles down at him and stands to her full height above him, Kazuma feels a bit of a missing nervousness, realizing now may've not been the best time to lecture her. "Y'know, I really don't need to hear that from a little bug." neither one knows how Kazuma shrunk down, why he stretches, but it taught both of them that even with a lot of force Kazuma wouldn't die from stretching or pressure. Leaving Aqua to... indicates the next chapter needs to be written. |
