Kazuma felt proud of himself. Despite how much trouble and grief this good-for-nothing world has given him, he relished at the fact that he saved not only his home but Axel from total destruction.

To be completely honest, Kazuma had mixed feelings about his current life. He was extremely excited to come to a "fantasy" world. One where people can become great adventurers and fight against monsters big or small. Plus a world with magic was just unreal!

Unfortunately, life gave him a big slap in the face, reminding him that he is still living in real life, not an RPG. Right from the start, he brought Aqua, the water goddess, with him to this world after she laughed at his death. She seemed to have promise though as she was able to register as an Arch Priest, an advanced class. She proved to be useless 90% of the time, getting herself in deep debt and somehow only causing more destruction the more she tried to help. She only came in handy when Kazuma died that one time, and when she used "Sacred Turn Undead" on the Dullahan, ridding the world of one of the Demon King's generals.

Speaking of the Demon King, they must defeat him in order to have Aqua return back to the heavenly realm.

Aside from that. Aqua has mostly caused more trouble than necessary.

And that's just the tip of the iceberg.

Next in their party is the explosion loving, arch wizard loli, Megumin. A girl from the "Crimson Demon Clan". From the start she seemed weird, but she held promise, with her class and ability to use explosion magic, the most advanced and powerful kind of destruction magic. Unfortunately, she can ONLY use explosion magic, and using the spell drains her of all mana, and then some, leaving her to be essentially paralyzed until she can recover some mana back. She constantly talks in some chuuni manner, making it sometimes embarrassing to have her around. Sometimes she could seem sensible, but then her normal personality comes through and proves otherwise. Her explosion magic though has had its uses. Like when she damaged the Dulluhan, or the Destroyer.

The final member of the party is Darkness. Or, her actual name, Lalatina. Apparently a noble girl whose family governs the area. She is mainly a crusader, a valiant knight who protects all from danger. Unfortunately, her secret is that she is actually a masochist who enjoys taking a beating rather than dishing out damage, which is why she often tanks attacks, for the pleasure. She often has no sense of time or place for her perverse actions, making it embarrassing to have her around sometimes. Of course, the problem doesn't just end there. There's also the fact that she seemingly can't hit the broad side of a barn, which makes it obviously a major problem. It became extremely apparent when they fought the Dulluhan, and her attacks managed to slice some rocks that were in the area, but not him.

Despite all this, despite all the troubles they gave him. He still somewhat cherished them. When he died from the winter shogun, he thought his time was over with them, and he sort of felt genuinely sad about it.

So why are you being told this?

Well, the city was just in the path of the the mobile fortress, "The Destroyer", which would have left the city in ruins. Luckily, Kazuma and his party, plus help from the local undead shopkeeper Wiz, they stopped it from destroying the city.

In the aftermath, some knights and a prosecutor from the imperial capital arrived at the city. One would think it was to congratulate and thank Kazuma and his party for stopping The Destroyer. Despite his heroic deed and high luck stat, this was not the case. During the mission, Kazuma had Wiz teleport the power core of the Destroyer to a random location in order to prevent it from self destructing. As a result, the core was sent to a lord's house, who luckily was not home, and blew it to smithereens. The lord in question wants to press charges, and now Kazuma is branded as a terrorist.

Now one would think, "Well Kazuma just defended an entire city, and he had his somewhat useless but trustworthy party with him, perhaps they could convince the authorities otherwise, right?" Right?

. . .

...You'd be wrong.

They did try, at first atleast, aside from his useless teammates attempt to defend Kazuma, which only ended up branding him as a major pervert, and quite possibly committed the crime of sexual harassment, but the other citizens were quick to his defence.

That is... until the prosecutor declared that anyone who was willing to stand by Kazuma would also be charged, and thrown in jail.

That quickly changed the tone of everybody, making them all go silent, while his teammates slipped aside to avoid him.

No one was willing to defend Kazuma, other than the perverted crusader, but possibly for her own gains for the pleasure of being thrown in jail.

'This is how I'm rewarded, how I'm treated? I helped defend this town from not only the Destroyer, but also the Dulluhan, and when things get serious I'm thrown under the bus? Even my worthless teammates turned their backs on me...' Kazuma thought to himself.

He was hurt, mad, angry. Angry at the people inside the guild. Angry at his teammates. Angry at the people who came to arrest him. The knights put some handcuffs on Kazuma, and they all exited the guild hall.

Morning came, and the knights were in disarray. A new sign was posted on the quest board and all over town, one that shocked not only the three girls from Kazuma's party, but also the entire city.

WANTED

SATOU KAZUMA

ACCUSED TERRORIST

RESISTED ARREST, ASSAULTED AN IMPERIAL KNIGHT AND FLED

During the escort to the prison, Kazuma attacked the knights and quickly fled away. Away from everything. From the worthless town he saved, his worthless teammates that had essentially abandoned him when shit hit the fan. He ran into the forest and hid from all the guards that searched for him.

Satou Kazuma was now a wanted man. He was betrayed by his teammates and the town he just saved, and now fled from his old life.

The only question remained, what now?

Heyo! Welcome to my first Konosuba fanfic, hope this turns out great! This was an idea that popped in my head and refused to go away so now here we are! The only thing left to ask is one thing, what should happen now? I have a few ideas but I want to leave it up to the readers.

1. Kazuma lives deep in a secluded forest, away from the others so none would find him.

2. Kazuma could work in a bandit group as he does have a few thief skills and even Lich skills.

3. Kazuma runs to another city, one that isn't within the jurisdictional reach of the Imperial Knights so he won't be arrested.

These are my main ideas for now, so leave a comment on which one you'd like to see and I'll pick the one with the most votes!
