Guy Crimson!?

Deep inside a forest filled with wildlife everywhere, two certain people can be seen running side to side, too fast for the normal eye to see.

"Where are we even going you leech!?" Noir asked with disdain.

"Well, I wanted to buy gifts for some people back home." Lucifer replied with a twitching smile while ignoring his previous comment.

"For what?" Noir questioned confusedly.

"I'm trying to get the bag if you know what I mean and buying gifts helps secure it." Lucifer stated with a smirk.

Noir stared at Lucifer confused before realizing what he meant.

"Kufufufu, you are trying to wed my future master? What makes you think you are worthy?" Diablo questioned with a menacing glare.

'Jeez, this dude hasn't even met him and he's already defending him.' Lucifer clicked his tongue inwardly.

Lucifer reached into his military trench coat pocket and pulled out a mask identical to Rimuru's but black.

"See this, I have the same mask as Rimuru, so you should treat me the same as him." Lucifer smugly stated while putting on the mask and pointing at himself.

Noir's eyes widened in surprise.

'Interesting, one second ago I could feel the Magicules exuding off him but now it's as if he's a normal human with no Magicules.' Noir inwardly pondered.

"Hey! Are you even listening to me!?" Lucifer snapped Noir out of his thoughts.

"Kufufu, you merely asked him to give you one of his masks and out of his benevolence, he did." Noir calmly stated.

"Bastar-" Lucifer was about to curse him but a loud explosion cut him off.

BOOOMM!!

Lucifer and Diablo immediately turned toward the explosion's direction and saw a kingdom in the distance in smokes.

Lucifer narrowed his eyes.

"What the hell was that?" Lucifer questioned curiously, unbothered since he was used to such things at this point.

"I wonder, regardless it sounds fun, shall we check it out?" Noir smirked.

"After you, sir Noir." Lucifer mockingly stated while making way.

Noir's eyes twitched but nonetheless went ahead, with Lucifer following behind him.

The kingdom was about 5 km away but it should only take them a minute or two since their not really in a rush to get there faster.

"I wonder, when we fought back there, did you think you could beat me?" Noir randomly started a conversation with Lucifer.

Lucifer was surprised at the question but answered nonetheless.

"100% I would win, now if I weren't to use my Ultimate Skill that would be a whole different story, probably 60/40 with you being 60. If you were named, I wouldn't stand a chance." Lucifer replied with his honest opinion.

Lucifer mentioned his Ultimate Skill because he knew Noir has probably already seen it and he doesn't really care if people know.

Noir simply nodded in agreement.

Suddenly, both Noir and Lucifer stop right in front of the gate of the kingdom, standing over 30 meters tall.

"You sense that?" Lucifer narrowed his eyes with a frown on his face.

He could sense very dense Magicules coming from the kingdom, he could also hear screams and smoke coming from behind the gate.

"Yes, someone quite powerful is wreaking havoc in that kingdom, but for some reason it seems as if their ignoring the citizens and going after something else." Noir stated with a frown also.

"Yeah not gonna lie, as much as I love helping, I don't think I wanna go there." Lucifer stated while nervously chuckling, he slowly started to step back.

Usually, he wouldn't let such things happen but after using Magic Sense, he noticed no dead bodies, which means whatever powerful being is their, isn't just killing innocents and has some other goal in mind.

'If innocent people were getting hurt I wouldn't mind helping but that doesn't seem to be the case for this situation, so I should just do a tactical retreat.' Lucifer pondered inwardly.

"Kufufu, these Magicules feel familiar." Noir thought aloud, trying to remember.

"Really? I wonder who but we need to go." Lucifer replied nonchalantly while motioning Noir to follow.

Suddenly Noir's eyes widened in realization.

"Damnit! It's fucking G-"

Before Noir could finish his sentence, something crash-landed right in front of them, creating a mini tornado and crater.

Noir was glaring at a certain someone who created the crater.

Lucifer was confused by Noir's sudden change of mood but his eyes widened once he saw who it was.

Red unkempt hair going down his back, chiseling 6 pack, standing at 6 feet tall with red piercing eyes, with his standard outfit, was the man himself, Guy Crimson.

"Yo I sensed some abnormal Magicules over here and look what I found, Noi-"

Before Guy could finish his sentence, he was sent flying by a punch.

BOOM!

His body was sent flying for hundreds of meters.

Lucifer stared in disbelief at what Noir just did but started dying of laughter.

"HaHaHaHa! You are one crazy bastard but I like it!" Lucifer pulled out his fist for a fist bump with a smirk.

Noir was at first confused at the gesture but a look of realization went across his face as he bumped his fist against Lucifer's.

"It seems as if you know who that is but don't fear him." Noir pondered.

"You could say I've heard of him but I'm pretty confident that I can at least sting him." Lucifer replied nonchalantly.

Noir just smirked.

"You bastards think this shit is funny!"

A voice interrupted them.

Looking to their right, Guy seems to be completely fine with no damage but looks pretty pissed.

"Noir, I'm only letting that slide because it's you but do that again and you won't like the consequences." Guy stated menacingly.

Noir just rolled his eyes.

Lucifer slowly laid his hands on his holsters, ready for action.

This didn't go by unnoticed by Guy.

"Hmm? Do I know you from somewhere?" Guy questioned, looking at Lucifer.

"I don't think so, I'm pretty sure I'd remember." Lucifer replied with a chuckle.

"I suppose you're right. But Noir what the hell was that punch for!?"

"Because I felt like it." Noir straightforwardly replied with a raised eyebrow as if it was a obvious thing.

Lucifer stifled a chuckle and covered his mouth.

"You think this shit is funny?" Guy questioned while staring daggers at Lucifer.

"Mayb-pftt" Lucifer was struggling to take Guy serious.

Noir just smiled with amusement.

"What were you even doing?" Lucifer questioned.

"Well some king thought it would be a good idea to trespass in my territory with his soldiers so I just killed him." Guy seemingly stated.

"I couldn't relate, are you so weak that mere humans don't even take you seriously." Noir smirked mischievously.

Guy was getting tired of the ridicule from these two and stepped up as if he was about to attack.

Lucifer and Noir immediately turned serious and pulled out their weapons, Lucifer pulled out his guns while Noir pulled out his claws.

Guy halted in his steps, he narrowed his eyes at Lucifer in specifc.

He just noticed that Lucifer seemed like a normal human with no Magicules but his instincts were telling him otherwise.

'How is he able to control his Magicules perfectly? That should be impossible but it's as if he has none at all. Interesting, I wonder if it's the mask that's concealing it, or is it his own ability? Regardless, I doubt he's strong enough to beat me but I should still be careful.'

'Noir still hasn't changed, he hasn't even tried to become stronger, *sigh*, what a waste of potential.' Guy inwardly thought.

As soon as he was about to take another step, he received a thought communication.

[Lord Guy, it seems Demon Lord Leon is requesting your presence.] Misery stated.

[Tell him I'll talk to him later.] Guy replied nonchalantly.

[He says it's urgent.] Misery stated.

Guy just sighed.

[Tell him I'll be there soon.]

[Of course.] Misery replied.

Lucifer and Noir were confused about why he halted.

"It seems you guys are lucky, I have somewhere to be." He quickly explained and jumped into the air, seemingly disappearing.

If Lucifer were to know the reason why Guy left, he would probably call him a simp.

"Well that was anti-climactic." Lucifer chuckled while putting his pistols back in their holsters.

"Agreed." Noir also made his claws disappear seemingly into thin air.

"Well since I was going to buy some gifts, I might as well "borrow" some from this kingdom since we technically distracted the enemy." Lucifer winked at Noir.

Noir just sighed but nodded nonetheless.

They both disappeared from their spots.

Later that day, half the kingdoms stores were robbed.

"Preciate the help Noir." Lucifer thanked Noir while they were walking.

Noir just nodded.

They eventually entered the Jura Forest and reached the entrance to the developing nation.

There seemed to be a long line of visitors who were getting checked out by the guards at the front before they were allowed in.

"Souei." Lucifer called out randomly.

Souei suddenly appeared behind Lucifer while kneeling.

Noir didn't seem surprised by his presence, he noticed them following him and Lucifer earlier but since Lucifer stayed quiet, it meant it was probably fine.

"My Lord, did you have a good journey?" Souei questioned.

"I did, how have you been Souei?" Lucifer responded with a smile.

"Normal as always sir." Souei curtly responded.

"Okay that's good to hear, I need you to give my fellow friend here a tour." Lucifer told Souei.

"Of course." Souei looked at the Noir and could tell he was strong.

"Behave and don't lose the gift with your spatial magic. Also I'll give you a name later but for now, I have someone to see." Lucifer told Noir.

"Tsk, I'm not some child." Noir complained but followed after the blue-haired ninja regardless.

Souei was a little annoyed by Noir's behavior but didn't show it and just followed orders.

"Ciao." Lucifer waved and seemingly disappeared from his spot.

(Rimuru POV)

Ugh, this paperwork is so exhausting.

Looking up, my door opened up and Shuna entered with more paperwork.

"Here Lord Rimuru, this is the finance report." Shuna stated and dropped it on my desk.

[Lord Rimuru th-]

Not now Great Sage, I'm too tired.

"Ughhhh! Where the hell is Lucifer!?" I exclaimed, usually, Lucifer would help me with the paperwork but he was nowhere to be found.

Bastard is probably enjoying his little vacation.

"I'll bring in some snacks and drinks." Shuna just chuckled and went to go bring the snacks.

[Lord Rimuru it-]

Ughh I'm busy.

Once she left, Rimuru went back to work.

"Where are you when I need you Lucifer?" Rimuru sighed.

(2nd POV)

But suddenly, Rimuru felt two arms wrap around his neck.

"I'm right here." Rimuru heard a familiar voice.

He was about to pull out his katana but realized who it was.

'Oh, so that was what Great Sage was talking about, hehe.' Rimuru nervously chuckled inwardly but outwardly he showed annoyance to Lucifer.

"So you finally decided to come back." Rimuru harrumphed.

"Of course, I missed you." Lucifer replied back smoothly with his arms still around his neck.

"Hmph, as if." Rimuru replied.

"Tsundere!?" Lucifer thought aloud.

"What the hell did you say!?" Rimuru exclaimed, trying to remove his hands.

"Not letting you go." Lucifer chuckled and held on tighter.

"Basta-" Rimuru was about to curse but was cut off.

"What if as long as you let me hold you like this for now, I'll do all your paperwork right now and I also have a gift." Lucifer proposed.

"Hmm." Rimuru stopped struggling and pondered.

Lucifer thought his plan was working and loosened his grip,

but suddenly,

"As if!"

"I've already told you, I'm not into that shit!"

Rimuru used this chance and punched Lucifer square in the face and sent him out of the building.

"Not again." Lucifer muttered while freefalling.
