13 Chapter 6 Part 2

- Felix -

Looks like Rimuru is doing well for himself. His country looks quite beautiful, you can see monsters of all sorts going about their days in peace.

Orcs building homes, Goblins running stores, truly amazing.

Hmm, It seems like the Kijin also chose to pledge allegiance to Rimuru too huh.

Now that I take a closer look at Rimuru with Milim Eye I can see that he has gotten quite a bit stronger than he was previously.

It only makes sense after he devoured the Orc Disaster.

Looks like his Predator Unique Skill evolved, he even has a Demon Lord Seed!

As I'm observing him Milim approached him and started poking his slime body.

"Ah well, welcome to Tempest!"

"Hmm? So was that Silver-Haired majin who defeated the Orc Disaster a transformation of yours?

"Huh, so you guys know everything then?"

I watch as Rimuru assumes his humanoid form, "Is this the form you're referring to?"

"You look like a trap dude. Do you enjoy giving people the wrong impression? Ah I know when guys proposition you, you can use the line. Sure but I'm on top, did you bring the lube? Their faces would be priceless!"

"Gah! It's not my fault! This was just the only body I've eaten and been able to mimic!"

"Ehh? What does that mean Felix?"

"Nothing Milim."

So he got that form from eating a body then huh?

"Please tell me you didn't chow down on an innocent person just to get a human form?"

"Of course not!"

Truth, huh, I wonder what led to him getting that body then?

"A friend of mine as she was dying asked me to devour her body after she died."

"I see, hopefully your friend passed away peacefully then…"

"Regardless being a gender neutral race I don't even have the ability to form my precious treasure!"

"Huh? That doesn't make much sense

"What do you mean?"

"Transform into a Direwolf."

"Why?"

"Just do so."

He then proceeds to turn into a Direwolf, and as I suspected he has the wrong idea.

"I have good news and I have bad news. Good news is you can grow your 'Precious Treasure,' bad news is you need to eat a male human or other humanoid race. As that wolf mimic of yours had all its parts, sexual ones included. You just haven't got the data for humanoid male anatomy so you cannot mimic it, you likely also subconsciously prevented yourself from mimicking your friends female parts. Hence your misunderstanding." 

"I see, so I can get my precious bits back then huh? Yahooooo! Thanks Felix! Ah if I ever find a humanoid male deserving of death of course…" 

"Ah I forgot, when you're by yourself in private check if the Orc one matches humans, you did eat the Orc Disaster afterall, and unless he was a trap as well he may have the right parts."

"Umu, I will"

"What are you two talking about? What parts?"

"Nothing, it's a boys thing Milim."

"I see."

"Anyways, so you became the Chancellor huh, how did that end up happening?"

"Treyni! It's all Treyni's fault, I thought she would lead us but for some reason she gave all the work to me!"

"Hahaha so in your attempt to escape our former countries wage slave life you tried to create a relaxing place where you can laze about, but instead you got saddled with even more work!"

"You called for me Lord Rimuru?" 

"Gah don't just pop up out of nowhere Treyni!"

Treyni shot me a look of astonishment, likely surprised by how much stronger I've gotten since we last met.

I was only an Arch Daemon back then, and even now I am releasing a little bit of my aura, though it's enough to make my Arch Daemon self look like a kid in comparison.

She gave me a short bow, "Lord Felix, it's a pleasure to see you again."

"Ah, it's nice to see you too Treyni, so you're serving Rimuru now huh?"

"Yes, me and my sisters saw fit to leave the forest in his hands."

"I see, good for you, you guys could use a break." 

"Thank you."

She then turned to Milim and said, "Lady Milim, may I ask you a question?"

"Hmm? Okay."

"Do you know where the new Elemental Queen is? Since us Dryads left Lady Ramiris's service we have heard no word of a new Elemental Queen being born."

"Ah you mean that pipsqueak Ramiris? Oh now that you mentioned it she enjoyed telling me about her Dryad subordinates whenever I teased her about not having any friends, are those you guys?"

Is it just me or did the Dryads eyes just gain a new shine to them?

"Felix-sama! You came for me! I have worked extra hard and want you to taste some more of my cooking!"

Ugh, I really don't want to do that. Maybe she did improve though? She has been practising for a while. She can't still be that bad right? Damn I see that evil smirk Rimuru is sending me, apparently I'm in for Saeko's bad meals, time for plan B.

Hmm, she also got a nice purple suit made, likely something Rimuru got her, man does it look nice on her, especially with that cleavage.

"Hello to you too Saeko, I hope you had fun here? Maybe you should practise cooking a little more, after all you need to be the best before I try your dishes, umu."

Oh, looks like the other Kijin are following behind her, hopefully Rimuru gave them good names. 

Ah, there's Raiden, seems Milim and I were a bit too fast for her.

"I'm sorry it took me so long to arrive Felix-sama but you and Lady Milim are just too fast for me."

"Holy cow you found an expy for Raiden Shogun!"

"Ah, it's no problem Raiden, I'm surprised you were able to catch up so quickly."

"This is my second subordinate Raiden, she is an Elemental Dragon,"

"It's nice to meet you Miss Raiden."

I send Rimuru a quick Thought Communication, "Ah just a heads up Rimuru it appears naming has a slight effect on the monster's appearance if you use a character you know as a base, she was a Dragon without a humanoid form before I named her."

"Heh, does she also share the OG Raidens bad cooking like your Kijin?"

"I sure hope not, one bad cook is enough for me. If she does, my next named monster will be Erina Nakiri or Rindo Kobayashi."

"Uhhhh great idea! We need to test this."

"Nah it was a joke we shouldn't name subordinates or friends based on our own expectations, that's not very nice."

"Gah, you're right, there go my dreams of Olga Discordia…"

".... Do you have an NTR fetish? We may not be able to be friends if so."

"Of course not! NTR is trash! Umu."

No lies, it seems he is safe for now. 

"Hey, what are you two secretly talking about? I wanna be part of the conversation you meanies!"

"What do you mean Lady Milim it hasn't been long enough for them to have a mental conversation?" Treyni asked looking confused

"It's nothing, we were just finishing up our conversation, I can tell you about it later if you want. Ah, me and Rimuru have a Skill with Thought Acceleration."

"Ah as expected of Felix-sama!"

"Eh, it's not that special Saeko, anyways it looks like you guys got named and evolved huh."

"Hello Benefactor, it's been a while. And yes, we Ogres have decided to serve under Rimuru-sama as his subordinates, I have been given the name Benimaru."

"I'm Shuna!"

"Rimuru-sama has granted me the name, Souei."

"I see, where's Ponytail at?"

"He left to do some mercenary work to aid the village, we do not currently know where he is."

"I see, I'll make sure to keep an ear open then, there can't be many Ogre mercenaries after all."

"Thank you, Benefactor."

"Hey Felix, why are you using weird nicknames instead of just giving them names like me?"

He doesn't know?

Has he named every monster he has met?

No, even he isn't that ignorant, right?

"Because naming takes a lot of Magicules, and sometimes it can even permanently reduce your magicule capacity. Don't tell me you didn't know that? I guess you have just been really lucky until now."

'It is likely that the individual known as Rimuru Tempest has been subconsciously syphoning some of Veldora's magicules when naming others.'

I see, thanks Odin, that makes sense, no wonder he hasn't dropped dead yet if he has been naming people left and right. Though poor Veldora, I haven't even met the guy and I already feel bad.

"How could he not know that? It's common knowledge amongst all monsters." Benimaru asks

"Huh, it is? Phew, I really dodged a bullet there."

"Anyways, would you mind showing us around Rimuru? Milim is starting to get bored, and when she gets bored she starts blowing shit up."

"Seriously?!"

"Yeah yeah take us to do something fun. I'm really bored and Felix says people don't like me when I get bored!"

"Agh! Uhhh, let's go! I'll show you around Tempest!"

Hmm? Where did Treyni go? Weird.
