Rimuru's Journey In Kny
17. Bad memories

Rimuru and Veldora ate their breakfast solemnly. Rimuru who ate his breakfast gracefully like royalty. It was also the manners training that Vesta and Shuna taught, starting from behavior, speech and daily life. While Veldora ate his breakfast carelessly.

Making some beef steak sauce stuck to the corner of his lips, not only that he also ate a dessert with haphazard anyway, making vanilla cream mixed with honey from Rimuru stuck to the corner of the other lip.

When she was done, Veldora wiped the leftovers on all corners of her lips with a white cloth that was deliberately placed on the table. He set his eyes on Rimuru. Rimuru looked over as she felt noticed. Then, not long before his forehead wrinkled in confusion when he found out Veldora was looking at him seriously.

Feeling that this conversation will be heavy and secret, Rimuru orders Diablo to leave, leaving him and Veldora. Through eye contact, Rimuru learns where this conversation will lead. He then sighed, tired of all the circumstances that befell him.

"I never thought you'd have a new student of Rimuru" Veldora said

Rimuru only snorted dislikely, then drank the wine with caution.

"At first I didn't want Veldora either, but somehow I moved by myself, well sometimes I would be lazy to teach them" Rimuru said while playing the glass filled with wine

"Oh? I thought since then you'd have a little bit of hatred for humans" Veldora said, smiling cynically at Rimuru

"It's also your true nature, isn't it? " he continued, who now ate dessert gracefully like royalty

This can be a rare sight that ever existed, Veldora who always haphazardly turned into more mature, although sometimes the nature of his former self still remains.

Given this, Rimuru should have perpetuated the incident. Butno. Because Rimuru has become accustomed to the new nature of Veldora that appeared in the last few months.

As Veldora said that, Rimuru recalled the memories he thought were bad. The old buried memories began to open wide.

"Curtain! " Rimuru grieved, her memory turned back like a movie showing all the pictures.

Squeezing his wine glass did not like, Rimuru immediately gulped all in with a single gulp. Then, looked at Veldora who was eating her dessert.

"You've changed Veldora since that incident" Rimuru said, looking straight at Veldora

"you reckon? Aren't you the same as me? " instead of answering Veldora raised a question that made Rimuru speechless.

Right, Rimuru changed. He changed since the incident, began to arise a sense of hatred and a little dislike in humans, although he knew, not all humans do the same thing.

Sighing tiredly, Rimuru refocused on her breakfast, unwilling to answer Veldora's questions. While Veldora only snorted dislikely as Rimuru ignored her.

Rimuru never wanted this, to be honest he just didn't want to deal with all the crazy documents that every day piled up on his desk.

Instead of wanting to take a vacation, make his body and mind rest for a while, but what was obtained was even a new problem, making Rimuru transform into the present Rimuru.

Rimuru sighed once more, no matter how many times Rimuru sighed, if counted, fingers could not count her breath.

"Rimuru" Veldora called out to him, this time her voice started to get serious.

Rimuru looked back at Veldora, who was currently playing her Dessert. The dessert lava cake. With strawberry flavor and melted chocolate inside plus refined white sugar and cherry on top will make anyone want to eat it.

But this time, this dessert was not lucky. Huhh... In vain Diablo made it with great joy and love.

"How did they feel when they found out they were being trained by a demon lord? "

Rimuru was silent, no matter how many times she was silent today. Leaving a minute of silence, Veldora snorted, then spoke to Rimuru again.

"If they knew, if you were a demon lord what would happen? " repeating the words with the same core, Veldora looked at Rimuru straight, her eyes glaring saying this time the question had to be answered.

Rimuru sighed again, put the small knife and fork on the side of the plate, then looked at Veldora no less seriously. Veldora sighed harshly, looking at the expression of her best friend her heart was like it was sliced, well recalling the incident that made her heart also sliced.

"I don't know Veldora, I don't care about any of that anyway. Whether they're disappointed or not is none of my business. Besides, I was just helping them get the peace they were looking for. "feeling that Rimuru's throat was dry poured wine into a glass and drank it.

Observing Rimuru's expression, Veldora unwillingly stopped this conversation, stood up from the curry and wanted to go to the back of her usual routine. But when he was in the doorway, he began to make a sound to make Rimuru fall silent again for the umpteenth time.

"To be honest, who was the victim here? "

Rimuru looked at Veldora's back deeply, feeling shocked by what her best friend had said. After Veldora disappeared, Rimuru leaned her back on the chair, staring at the ceiling of the room with glaring eyes.

Veldora's words were clearly stuck in her memory, as if they were glued to her memory. While Ciel was just silent knowing the emotions within his master were disordered.

"I don't know which victims and which predators. But obviously, they only do one thing....

.... Survive it"

Here another

The Hashiras gathered at the butterfly residence, they were already preparing to go towards his teacher's residence. Today they will train, train themselves to become strong and be able to kill Kibutsuji Muzan.

The sunlight began to heat up, but there was no sign of completeness on Rimuru's new disciple. Like, Sanemi who has not come, Tengen who he said wants to buy accessories that he thinks are quite lively, and Kyoujurou who he said bought some snacks to walk.

"They are very long" Mitsuri complained, her legs ache and continued to stand, until finally she preferred to sit her buttocks on the ground.

Iguro is surprised, he offers his thighs to sit on, of course Mitsuri accepts it with pleasure, at least his clothes will not be dirty while in the residence of his teacher.

Another case with Mitsuri, Iguro was actually very happy because his offer was accepted. His face was turned elsewhere so that no one would see him blushing. To hell with her dirty clothes, the important thing is that the woman she loves is happy is enough.

"It's been more than the hour of agreement" Giyuu made a voice, making everyone there look at him in disbelief.

Giyu...

The ice wall spoke.....

A truly rare occurrence. Shinobu approached intending to punish her as she always did. Mentoel-toel Giyuu's shoulder with his flagship smile, Shinobu said in a sarcastic tone.

"Ara~ I thought you were mute to the point of not being able to speak Tomioka-san"

Giyuu only looked at this woman tired, he was used to the jahilan that was thrown from the mouth of this woman, whether her tone was sarcastic or mocking.

"Eh? What is it about your face that Tomioka-san changed? ~"

Turning his eyeballs lazy, Giyuu prefers to go from there and be alone under a shady tree in Shinobu's residence. Shinobu simply pursed her lips irritatedly feeling ignored. Well... It was wrong to talk to the ice wall.

But he thinks it's a fun thing, and he wants to keep doing it, every day and every time.

15 Minutes have passed at last everyone has gathered, the clattering sound of Tengen accessories, the sound of chewing from Kyoujurou's mouth is heard, do not forget Mitsuri who ate Kyoujurou snacks, and Sanemi with messy hair.

Looking at his condition, it seems like he just woke up, don't tell me that he forgot their appointment today.

Once everything is ready, Giyuu leads the way, with the guide of Rimuru's eagle, Helen.

"Well let's go, I hope sensei won't get angry because of our delay" Kyoujurou said in his voice, while everyone there nodded their heads in agreement
