What Did I Do? (Please Vote)

"AAAAAHHHH—!"

With howls like those of evil spirits, a mass of undead swallowed Darkness whole.

Before that, everyone except Darkness had retreated some distance.

"All right! Watch me purify every last one of you!"

Even as she backed away, Aqua made that declaration and raised her hand.

As long as all the undead gathered around Darkness, Aqua could use purification magic to Turn Undead and send those spirits on their way.

That had been Fang Li's plan as well.

However, something even Fang Li had not anticipated happened the next moment.

"Huh?"

Darkness, who had been wearing a blissful expression as she prepared to endure the monsters' attacks, opened her eyes in utter confusion when the ravaging she had imagined failed to arrive.

"Huh?"

Aqua, who had been about to purify all the undead in one go, let out an equally vacant sound.

"This..."

Fang Li, Kazuma, Megumin, and the others who had retreated to the side all froze.

Then, the huge mass of undead that had been charging toward Darkness suddenly swept past her sides like parting tides, completely ignoring her.

"AAAAAHHHH—!"

Still letting out terrifying howls, the undead horde charged straight toward Aqua, whose hand was raised.

"W-Why?!"

Aqua let out an incredulous cry. Forgetting all about purification, she immediately spun around and fled for her life.

"AAAAAHHHH—!"

The undead merely continued howling as they crazily pursued Aqua.

"W-Why?!"

Darkness cried out just like Aqua had.

Only, her cry was filled with disappointment.

"W-What is going on?"

"...Can I go home now?"

Watching Aqua desperately flee from the pursuing undead horde, Kazuma looked utterly baffled, while Megumin let out a faint sigh.

Even Fang Li felt somewhat helpless.

In this situation, Aqua wailed and sobbed as she was chased by the mass of undead.

"I didn't do anything!
