Description

Troublemakers of the City of Water Megumin arrives in the city of Arcanretia but is warned that the monsters in the area are too powerful for an amateur adventurer like her, barring her from taking any quests. While wandering the city, Megumin sees a nun apparently being harassed by a pair of priests and intervenes, only to inadvertently be caught in a dispute between Axis and Eris worshippers. The nun, Cecily, calls the police as a distraction and leads Megumin away before trying to recruit her into the Axis Church. Seeing that Megumin is starving, Cecily takes Megumin to the Axis Church where she meets the archbishop Father Zesta. In return for Zesta providing food and board, as well as giving her a lead on a beautiful female mage who knows explosion magic living in the town of Axel, Megumin agrees to assist the Axis Church on their recruiting efforts. To her surprise, she encounters Yunyun and Chomusuke, who had both followed her to Arcanretia. Father Zesta is then arrested by the authorities on suspicion of tampering with the city's water springs, and Yunyun admits she delivered a prophecy from Soketta warning that Arcanretia would be in danger.
