A Great Revelation

-Puppet Nation Jistav, Clayman's Domain

Three individuals could be seen in great fog on the way to Clayman's Castle with one beautiful young woman accompanied by two dashing Knights whose been trying to flirt with the young woman. In contrast, the young woman just smiled at their antics as certain slime already occupied her heart.

"You're always like this, Sir Lancelot! Not only our Queen but also this lovely woman!"

"My love for the Queen is genuine! And how about you? You also have a wife!"

"..."

"Fufu.."

The two fight as they reveal each other's dirt to the girl named Shuna. While she laughs and doesn't know that the two knights are serious about their courtship because they are known for their womanizing tendencies, as their legends describe them.

(I hope Rimuru-sama was alright)

Shuna thought while stopping in her tracks as they could see the Castle where their mortal enemy resided while Lancelot and Gawain stopped their bickering and looked at the Castle with serious expressions.

"My Lady... please be careful. The Spirit of Water that accompanied me was becoming restless."

"Yes, the Spirit of Fire also became restless... a foul Magical Energy was lingering in this place..."

The two knights said as the fog suddenly thickened, making the knights readied for their unique skills as the sacred sword manifested in their hands.

"Sir Gawain, if you please."

Lancelot said, making Gawain nod at him seriously as he raised his sword upwards. At the same time, the Spirits of Fire started dancing around them, making a warm yet gentle feeling touch their skins.

(Amazing... his power alone could outmatch Oni-sama)

Shuna thought while Gawain, who closed his eyes, suddenly opened them as he slashed his sacred sword downward, whose radiance could be seen outside the fog itself.

"This sword is a replica of the sun itself! Its flame shall cleanse all the impurities of this world. EXCALIBUR GALATINE!!!"

Gawain shouted as the sword destroyed the fog and countless Skeletons that slowly approached them.

"..."

"..."

"Tsk, A Wight King, huh..."

Lancelot clicked his tongue as a skeleton robe in priest clothing suddenly appeared before them, accompanied by a strong-looking Skeletal knight and Death Dragon.

"Hoh~ to think that a knight like you still exists... just seeing you made me and Albert remember our old days as knights and Priests... Oh, excuse for my rudeness am still not introducing myself... my name is Adalman, one of the five fingers of Clayman... please make me your acquaintance."

The Skeleton introduced himself while bowing as Lancelot readied his sword to intercept the Wight King.

"Please wait, Sir Lancelot, and please let me be the one to handle him."

Shuna said as she stopped Lancelot on his track while Lancelot just looked at her resolved expression.

"My Lady... I see... If you already resolve to fight him, then there's nothing for me to hesitate! Let me take care of the other obstacle! HAAAH!"

----CLINGGGGGGGGGGGGG

----CLINGGGGGGGGGGGGG

Lancelot said, no longer hesitating to confront the strong-looking knight whose swordsmanship was brilliant as his, while Gawain, with no choice, started facing the Death Dragon.

"To think Sir Lancelot would get ahead of me... as expected from the Knight of the Lake, an ideal knight among our round of the table, it was an impressive opening..."

Gawain said with a smile as he fought the Death Dragon with ease while Shuna, whose walking straight on Adalman, was making a calm and collected expression.

"Young woman, to think you would face me instead of letting those knights fight me... I admire your resolve, but!"

Adalman said as he summoned his minions of Skelton making Shuna surrounded by countless Skeletons walking in her direction.

"I think you alone won't be enough to defeat me!"

"You see... I am quite angry... It would be best for you to surrender."

"As much as I want to, I can't... This place binds me... and my duty was to defeat the intruders that came to this place."

"Then, as planned... I will defeat you."

Shuna said with a serious and angry expression as she faced Adalman simultaneously. Great magic enveloped her and Adalaman, starting the battle between ex-priest and shrine maiden, making the Domain of Clayman chaotic as Lancelot and Gawain started using their Sacred Swords.

-Ice Continent, Guy Crimson Domain

Rimuru was escorted by one of the seven primordial demons, Misery, together with Ranga, and Shion, who were excited about their upcoming battle on Clayman.

"This way, please."

"Sure."

Rimuru marveling at the meeting room of the Walpurgis, said as he sat on the opposite side of Guy Crimson, whose Demon Lords Haki was so chaotic that you couldn't guess if it were weak or strong. Still, with Ultimate Skill Raphael, Rimuru was certain that aura was just a camouflage.

(This isn't good! He's a piece of bad news! He's a different class of his own...)

"..."

(One of the oldest Demon Lords... Guy Crimson)

Rimuru, thinking something, was interrupted by a Giant man walking in his seat with great tremors as explosive Demon Lord Haki could be felt in his surroundings.

(That massive body! And a ridiculous amount of magical energy... That's the giant Demon Lord, Dagruel!)

Rimuru looks at the giant cautiously. A second later, another figure accompanied by a butler and maid could be seen in transport magic escorted by one of the seven primordial Demon, Rain.

(Those fangs... Is he a vampire? Which makes him the Demon Lord Valentine... Oh! H-Huh? Wait a second... His maid is...)

"..."

[Raphael: Yes, Appraisal suggests that the individual in question may possess even more energy than Demon Lord Valentine.]

(I thought so. That maid might be the True Demon Lord whose Veldora is talking about... Milis or Lurus or whatever it is... I hope no one finds out about my connection with Veldora. And if they do, I hope I don't have to clean up the aftermath!)

Rimuru hoped they wouldn't find out about his relationship with Veldora, who has a terrible history with Demon Lord Valentine.

"..."

Yawnn~

"!?"

Another figure accompanied by two women could be seen on another portal as great shock could be seen not only by Rimuru, but everyone in the meeting room of Walpurgis as the lazy and loner(supposed to be) was accompanied by two women whose strengths could be equal to some Demon Lords making the room quiet.

"Yo! everyone! Why are you looking at me? Heh ~ are you surprised? I know I am handsome, but looking at me with that intensity would make me shy."

Dino said as he scratched his head, pretending to be embarrassed while the other Demon Lords could not help but twitch in annoyance. At the same time, a certain slime was looking not at Dino but at his attendant, who he knows very well.

(ARTORIA-SAN!!!)

A great revelation was seen as Rimuru looked at Artoria with a shocked expression, together with Shion and Ranga while Dino looked at him with a satisfied expression.

(Finally, I meet him again...)
