Shitara Slime Datta Ken (WN)
Me, The One Who Has Sprung
They fled with all their might.
The strength of their pride foot, which was trained only for the purpose of killing monsters, was used solely to get away from that place at that moment.
Something unbelievable had happened right before their eyes, and that was what their brains instinctively ordered.
So, they had to leave this place at all costs.
As if it was a demon king, as the monster noticed a lively presence, all the men simultaneously fled for their own survival.
Those who survived simultaneously immediately went into action.
They calculated that this would increase their chances of survival, even in the slightest.
That's what men do.
They had never heard of such a monster being here.
As soon as the light flashed, thousands of soldiers died. Even those who had built up resistance to fear could not help but panic.
Their hearts are not broken just by fear of their owner, Sakaguchi Hinata, whom they serve.
Hinata hates them, but even though they are treated like worms, this will only make them feel grateful, not angry.
This is something obvious.
It was because they were attracted by his overwhelming coldness and strength, that they pledged allegiance to him out of fear.
They themselves are strong individuals. And in terms of battle power, they could even rival a holy knight.
Yet even within the group, they were no match for Hinata.
This has created absolute horror within them.
They were unlikely to think of any dissatisfaction.
TN Comment: Masochist soldiers?
However, unbeknownst to them, this fear benefits them because it is thanks to this that they can survive.
The reason for that was that when their hearts were broken from fear, they were as good as dead.
Their desire to tell Hinata about this had desperately pushed their feet into action.
They believed that if it was Hinata, he could defeat the monster.
However, the hopes of those people would be shattered. Because in the eyes of his pursuers, they were just ordinary prey.
All for the sake of being recognized.
The miserable prey lives for confession.
Without a sound, the devil chased its prey.
The hunt after a long time. It would be my fault if I didn't have fun.
Amazing party given before, I'm very satisfied.
This hunt will be an excellent after-meal exercise.
「Kufufufu. This is good, isn't it? Please entertain Me ~ 」
He muttered with a crooked expression.
His smile was a smile that would bring out fear from the roots of the soul in the heart of the beholder.
Already, his two subordinates were released, there was no way out for the prey.
In front of the fleeing man, two demons blocked their path.
They suddenly appeared in front of them using spatial transportation.
Leaving behind their friends, the impatient people who instantly chose to escape had already disappeared.
Given the symbol of fear, Hinata, they desperately hold on to the thin limits of their minds.
The situation will not change for the better.
However, pride in working for the church had allowed Blood Shadow to regain his confidence.
Instantly he could deduce the identity of the demon.
It was a bigger demon.
That's a dangerous enemy. However, the three of us.
He could win against one in a 1 vs 1 situation, there was no way they would lose in a 3 vs 2.
「Tch! He called out the hard ones! 」
「However, he does not pursue himself, maybe he is physically exhausted. 」
“Yes that's right. Raging to that level must have consumed magical energy, that's what I heard. 」
As they spoke to each other, the larger demons took a defensive stance.
The larger demons showed no signs of moving. The reason being, they were ordered only to act in certain regions.
The beautiful demon that calmly walked from behind was one of them.
「Kufufufu. Is this chase scene over? Then, allow me to arrest them. If they refuse, do whatever you want. However, please do not kill, because we do not want to end their suffering, please pay attention. 」
With a crooked smile, the beauty whose gender was unknownerminable had spoken.
Seeing this spectacle, his legs went limp, resulting in incontinence.
With no strength left to complain, he did not even have the slightest intention to fight back. Destroyed in an instant, his soul had been destroyed.
「* Strange squealing sound *....」
TN Note: this actually translates to something, but is actually just nonsense in the end.
No words are formed because of their fear.
These three men are notorious murderers who handle the church's dirty work. They were the men who had the best skills in fighting monsters.
The three men instantly recognized something as they watched this.
On the contrary, the fact that they are still alive to bear witness to the death of many is commendable.
the larger demon, is just one of many working substitutes. The demons before their eyes were in a different league.
Its existence could be called like: Arch Demon.
Inhabitants in the spirit world as well as the physical world where humans live, it was an existence above demons.
It was a spirit beast, unmoved by the power of this world except reincarnated.
Basically, they were on the same level as spirits.
When summoned with magical energy, all he could do was obtain a temporary physical body and function for a short period of time.
However, there were also those who obtained a physical body in the physical world.
One of the oldest demon kings is an example.
The demon lord was convinced that there were remnants of memories that were previously Demon Arch.
The Arch Demons were the pinnacle of an authoritarian figure of the demon type.
Unofficially confirmed and only in a few records, they were half-legendary monsters.
Their strength, “A +”, is said to be equivalent to the pre-devil master class.
And their strength, remains as the demon king of legends.
A demon who destroyed many cities.
Both in name and reality, it was said to be the strongest of the demon lords.
Such a being with the caliber of a demon king, the Demon Arch was right before his eyes.
Of course, he had never heard of this. However, the poison that enveloped his body was not something that was easily lost.
No doubt, the Arch Demon had appeared.
There is no way to win. Far from it, it was impossible to escape.
Even a disaster-class monster could be pitted against as it was a disaster-class monster itself. (ED: I really don't know what this means)
Against this kind of monster, even 100 more powerful demons were much better opponents.
Those people lost all hope and fainted on the spot.
Looking at their state in satisfaction, the Devil had a very distorted smile on his face.
The devil caught the three people, and had his subordinates bring them back to the city.
One of them was appointed to lock up the captured ones.
＊ ＊ ＊
Right in front of Benimaru's eyes, Rimuru's body had undergone an irregular and strange change from its mucus shape.
It immediately calmed down, returning to its original line shape.
However, this time the suspicious flashing colors were like red, blue, yellow, green and purple. There are also black and white colors.
And like this, some time has passed. At this point their awareness of time was gone.
People are starting to worry about how long it has been.
“Warning. Individual: The evolution of the Demon king Rimuru Tempest has been completed. Move, blessing all affiliated monsters will start》
“World voice” echoed.
Suddenly, a wave of drowsiness struck.
It seems that Rimuru's evolution worked, Benimaru thought.
Next was their turn, but they never expected to feel sleepy.
Thus they fall asleep unable to resist the urge.
However, he made an appointment with Rimuru, he couldn't possibly fall asleep on his own.
At that moment, Rimuru's body emitted a dazzling beam of light.
When the light died down, it revealed a beautiful creature with long shiny silver hair.
Removing his familiar mask, it was Rimuru.
With silver hair flowing down her cheeks, it was a display of heavenly beauty.
It is tragic that this creature has no gender.
TN: Benimaru, ruin the moment.
“WARNING. Leave the rest to me, please sleep》
A voice resonated softly inside his head.
That voice gave Benimaru a deep sense of security.
Benimaru, guided by that voice, was brought to an unbearable sleep.
By the time she was told, Rimuru looked around carefully to make sure no one else was awake.
Only Myulan got up, looked around, enjoying the unbelievable sight.
With the exception of Youmu, all other humans have taken refuge in emergency shelters to avoid high concentrations of magical energy.
Therefore, the only person who was still awake here was Myulan.
The person with Rimuru's appearance confirmed this fact with expressionless eyes.
Slowly, he began to open his arms.
Long hair flowed down his back, and angel wings grew, filling the surroundings with a dazzling light.
“WARNING. The Wisdom Lord (Raphael) has ordered. Gluttonous King (Beelzebub) will devour all the magical energy within the barrier》
By his order, the greedy King begins.
A brutal amount of force was unleashed.
However, this time there was a reason to activate this ability.
This can be traced to the results that have been calculated by the Wisdom Lord.
Within the tempest city, all magical energy was absorbed, making it a vacuum.
After the barrier that covered the city had been cleanly preyed upon, the King's voracious abilities were stopped.
As if nothing at all.
Creatures with the appearance of Rimuru are agents (Raphael) of the subconscious (Teacher).
Raphael walked over to Shion where he had originally laid down.
His hand hovered over the area, the analysis had begun.
Careful. To fulfill the wishes of the Lord.
Myulan watched the figure in surprise.
Being inside the shield, there was a threat that would make them preyed upon in an instant, but even then ……
Not likely.
With the master in an unconscious state. Ability to take autonomous action.
If an order was issued earlier, it was understandable, but this time it was not.
Above all, the presence of this divine figure, was too different from Rimuru.
Rather, it was closer to a spirit than a monster.
It was a very stupid matter, yet he felt this was no laughing matter.
However, Myulan just watched without intervening.
＊ ＊ ＊
In response to Benimaru's request, Youmu was waiting at the exit of the city.
Beside him, the demon Grucius.
With the Escaping King of Farms and the Blood Shadow Captured, they had been asked to watch over them to make sure they did not escape.
But since there was a barrier, there was no going in or going out.
So, even though Grucius was inside the city, Ranga was still outside.
The king was certainly detained, tied up by subordinates and then transported into the building.
TN Note: If you don't understand why Gurcius was outside before, but inside the city now, it's because he received a package known as Blood Shadow and King Farm, and now watch them in a building in the city.
Due to the thick concentration of Magical energy, the conditions outside the house became bad. However, for various reasons, it was still too early to kill him.
He had heard that there were three escapees currently being chased by the demon called Rimuru.
So, Ranga went to sleep remembering that information.
It seemed that she had originally intended to wait for him, but in order to receive the reward, sleep was necessary.
It seemed that he was also lured into an unbearable deep sleep.
When watching him,
Grucius muttered this while releasing a sigh of admiration.
The concentration of magical energy was very bad but with Youmu outside the city, it was still possible to talk to him.
Regarding such a matter, Youmu heard nothing, not even rumors.
Even he who was familiar with the back door, there were still events that he did not know about, such as the evolution of the demon lord.
Rimuru Danna, a demon lord. He looks back emotionally.
「But, I feel that even if danna becomes the demon lord, nothing will change. 」
He was deep in thought without muttering a word.Grucius nodded with a laugh.
「That's for sure.」
Both said and hoped there would be no change in Rimuru.
To think that the others were thinking exactly the same thing, the couple was happy. Great thinkers really think alike.
「Shion, I hope he gets up ....」.
「Maybe there's nothing to worry about. Did you know that monsters, unlike humans, are extremely stubborn creatures? 」
Saying this, Grucius laughed.
This was a carefree idea to have, and Grucius seemed so.
「Hey you, so which demon lord are you serving? Can you tell me? 」
He asked about something that was bothering him,
「Oh! You noticed.
Everyone ignores this topic ……
At first I was troubled about how easy it is to cheat you.
But actually, I .... 」.
Then, under the command of the demon king Karion, I was ordered to act as I wished.
So, until the demon lord issued his next order, he had decided to work under Youmu as his subordinate.
Youmu nodded, though,
「Happy can help you, and I'll count on You」
And they shake hands strongly with each other.
Gracius and Myulan.
From now on, the couple will support Youmu.
.
The duo chatted, though,
「Oya, are you here to send something? 」
A voice sounded.
What he saw was a beautiful demon.
In Youmu's eyes, the larger demons showed dignity.
However, what Grucius saw was different.
All the hairs on his body stood up as he sensed the opponent's magical energy.
「Oyoy, this is the first time I've met you. Are you an Arch Demon? What are you doing here? 」
Grucius was still a young demon, he had no experience in talking to the demon lord as a partner.
He doesn't even know about Milim, he's lacking information about the world.
That was why, this was actually the first time he had encountered an Arch Demon. But the danger can be felt with one look.
「Kufucu. No need to worry.
I'm just a nameless demon called by Rimuru alike.
The two left there are only part of my duty.
For Rimuru alike, I just wanted to show her the usefulness of Me. 」
What came out was a sweet and friendly voice.
But when he looked up, the two men who were staring at the bigger demon fainted.
There was no magic detected in this, it was very likely that he had a majin combat ability.
This is the Arch Demon? This is no joke.
That's what he thought, but he didn't say anything.
Resistance is futile. So while Gracius was agitated, Youmu had trusted the man.
King Farmas was taken by his subordinates.
The moment they had such a conversation, the barrier suddenly disappeared.
Looks like something happened.
Grucius and Youmu looked at each other, and started running towards the town square.
the demon did not run away, but calmly used spatial movements.
With an understanding of spatial transfer, this was something trivial.
With his spatial transfer, he was the first to find Rimuru, and approached.
With her beautiful sliver hair down, it seemed like she was performing some sort of ritual for the dead monster.
Beautiful, she obediently embraced this impression. He wanted to watch this scene with great excitement, but he could not do it any longer.
He quietly approached to avoid any distractions, and knelt down.
「I've returned, my lord. 」
He called while paying close attention to make sure he did not disturb his master.
He might have to wait until the end of the ceremony, he was worried.
「I'm sorry for my rudeness, however, there doesn't seem to be enough energy」
What the Devil witnessed was a ceremony most likely called 〈mystery soul memory〉.
Before resurrecting the dead, the mysterious tries to create a perfect soul replication.
If it fails, the person could be someone completely different, or even a monster.
Based on a wisdom that humans will never understand, this mysterious magic was created.
Of course to actually use it, a large amount of energy was actually needed, and the amount of energy needed to control it was unimaginable.
Even High-class Devils would usually fail to control it.
Therefore only the most skilled with soul manipulation within the demon clan would see this.
“Iya. The lack of energy for the purpose of revival has been fully confirmed. Thus, a certain amount of life force would be consumed as its replacement. 》
These words had caused the Devils to panic.
「Please wait a minute Rimuru alike! To use your own life force as a substitute …
That's her! There's a better idea!
Please use this one instead! 」
After finding joy in this idea, the Devil had proposed such a thing to Rimuru
The larger demon walked over from behind, and knelt in front of him.
「For Me, there is no greater joy than being able to help you. 」
「……」
Rimuru, not Raphael, observed the demon with two glowing red eyes.
There was no emotion reflected in those beautiful eyes,
《Understanding. The amount of energy is ensured to be enough to cover the remaining part.》
Later, he is devoured by King Greed (Beelzebub) without a fight.
As he was eaten, the larger demon disappeared.
Then, he was converted into pure energy.
He is useful to his master, his wish fulfilled. The energy shone with a cheerful color.
TN Note: The one eaten was his subordinate, not the Arch Demon itself.
「Oh ……! I'm so jealous of you. However, as expected of my Master. Compared to the time I saw you before, you have experienced growth! 」
He looked at the evolution of masters with aspiring eyes.
Being reborn as a demon king, in order to serve a beautiful master, it was the Devil's wish.
Comment TN: “Very unfortunate, but has no gender.”
–News
To that end, it could be said that he has proven to be beneficial.
He would do anything with his strength to prove his worth.
《Total required energy has been confirmed. Now, it will start.》
Confirming that the amount of energy was sufficient, the Devil was silent.
Unless it was his turn, he was worried that if he intervened, it would only bring about failure.
Right before the eyes of the Devils, it had been successfully completed.
Beautiful and transparent light ball, coated in a fine thin purple film.
This, was the soul that acted as the core, and the Astral body formed an outer defense.
Move, and Shion's soul returns to his body.
The success rate is lower than 3.14%. However, these probabilities were calculated before the evolution into a demon lord.
Shion's soul, thanks to blessings, has retained all of his memories.
Rimuru's wish has been realized, and this blessing is bestowed.
In addition to retaining all his memories, there is an additional skill 『Memory Complete』.
This is an ability that will allow the soul to return safely from death for an indefinite period of time.
ED: You are serious.
With his soul and body establishing a connection once again, Shion's core started beating once again.
And the dead have been revived.
No, it was a miracle that happened just when the soul was about to disappear. The prayer of Rimuru and everyone is not in vain.
Raphael, showing no signs of excitement in response to this success.
This is the result obtained through calculations and probabilities, that's all.
He did not regard this as sadness, nor could he understand anything.
Even so, in the depths of this emotionless mind, there is an ego tucked in a corner.
Doubting his own existence, a glimmer of thought is subtly born, unbeknownst to the Lord of Wisdom (Raphael)
“Therefore I think I”
TN Note: search Descartes.
ED: “People don't think the universe is what it is, but it is.” –Black Science Man
This will be a proposition for the Wisdom Lord (Raphael) in the future.
When Shion, the one who took the most damage was successfully revived, the remaining 100 people also started to rise.
Their souls began to recover, and an astral body filled with energy appeared once again.
Follows the flow of work, and is activated, and it ends successfully.
A miracle, unknown to the people within the monster city, was secretly given by him.
Only two monsters knew about this. Myulan and the Devil.
Myulan stared at the scene without making a sound like she was completely fascinated by the ritual.
He was someone who pursued the ultimate mysterious magic and was clearly fascinated by this.
Regarding the outstanding high-level Arcane magic, he had managed to catch a glimpse of the demon king ship Rimuru.
They themselves are not of the level of a Devil.
Even Clayman is unsatisfactory. Then, he swore that he was lucky and grateful to have gained recognition.
He had decided to lead Youmu so that Rimuru would never treat him as an enemy.
Thus, an oath would be something that should be protected at all costs.
Without saying a word, the dreamy demon looked at Rimuru and began to consider.
Now, I'm chatting with myself, and not with Rimuru? That's what I'm thinking.
The skill of gaining his own ego, it was something unheard of. To fulfill the wishes of his master, a skill that acted according to his own will, it was something unprecedented.
Sillier. Such a thing cannot happen.
It seems, it might have been thrown away.
In that case, such a thing .. please give it to your subordinates at all costs. Thus, a new determination rose again.
After a while, the footsteps of two individuals could be heard.
Rimuru (Raphael) has completed his goal, and is back into deep sleep.
The panicked Youmu rushed over when he saw Shion breathing like someone asleep.
「Oy, Shion san and the others, did they manage to be revived? 」
Regarding this question, Myulan was confused.
“Iya. According to the division of gifts during evolution, they seem to have been successfully revived. Now if only their memories are intact, then we are all fine. 」
And then, they'll be fine, right. He muttered something that Youmu could not hear.
While doing so, the people of the city started to wake up one after another.
The concentration of Magical power had thinned, and they all panicked when they realized the shield had been lost.
The city called tempest was in a festive mood, and they were all wrapped up in excitement.
Those who know that the resurrection was purchased not by a miracle, but through the ability (Raphael), only in two.
And in the shadows, the ego of the skill that the Lord of Wisdom (Raphael) has grown up with, is an event that no one knows about.
