Chp-60 Meeting.
*Crash!!*
A sound of glass breaking echoed as a scream reverberated in a room.
"That Slime!!" Clayman exclaimed in anger as veins popped all over his face.
"*Chuckles* This is the first time I have seen the "Great Clayman Sama" loose his temper." A clown with a winking mask mocked Clayman as he sat leisurely on the couch.
"Hmph! That slime...I will kill that bastard. After all these, and even loosing that witch, He is still alive! " Clayman spoke as he looked at his hands.
"And stronger, don't forget that! He's a demon lord now." The clown added as he sees Clayman walk towards the large window.
"It doesn't matter, Demon Lord or not. I will call for a Walpurgis. With Milim, under my control, no Demon Lord is a match for me." Clayman declared as he looked outside the window towards the army of Majins gathered.
"And what about Him?" The clown mentioned.
"Bael won't interfere. I have noticed that Bael would rather enjoy watching everything burn down than do something about it. He would only act if I target him or his people specifically which I am not so foolish to do so, Laplace." Clayman turned towards Laplace the clown.
"*Chuckles* You shouldn't underestimate him? After all he's a True Dragon Too. And every one knows True Dragons are unpredictable." Laplace advised.
It was a fact that The stronger you are, the more Strange you behave for the normal people. Take all the Demon Lords for example, one enjoys attacking humans in such a way that the humans would somehow win although Guy could just go and kill them all. Another have a Whole religion formed on her, one sleeps and one is a pesky fly and so on.
".....I won't." Clayman Half-heartedly spoke as he turned his back.
"....*sigh*...welp! I gotta go now, President has some tasks for me. Be alert." Laplace said his final words as a Smoke Bomb exploded and quickly faded away, with Laplace now gone.
"Tch."

Rimuru Pov. Tempest City.
"Goodness Rimuru, you should atleast tell me such important things beforehand. I might get a Heart attack one day if this continues. " Fuze, the Guildmaster of Blumund kingdom sighed out.
"Eh? Did I forget to tell you? Well you already know right?" I joked .
"Don't joke around!"
"Haha! You are so energetic, it means you have recovered right!?"
It was a day after the Massacre of Falmuth army, and a meeting was currently being held in Tempest. The members attending were, Gazef Dwargo and the Pegasus Knights Captain, Emmisary of the Sorcerers Dynasty Sarion Ellis Grimwald, Representative of Blumund Fuze-san, Representative of Falmuth Youm, Myurran and Guran, and The Beast Keepers.
After I retell my story of how I got reincarnated, Met Veldora, ate him and every events that led to this point, the meeting Resumed.
"*Sigh* It's still hard to believe it. A Newly Borned Demon Lord and aslo the Storm Dragon Veldora on the same area, people might get the wrong idea about this." Ellis spoke.
"Is that so?" I asked.
"Yes, after all, The last time something similar to this happened, an Empire was created on the blood of Millions." Gazef spoke solemnly, his voice sounded as if it hurt to even mention it.
[Notice: Individual Gazef's father Died in the Great War, by the hands of Emperor Bael.]
Raphael-sensei clarified for me as I now understood why Gazef looked conflicted.
"... Don't worry, nothing close to that will happen. Infact,Veldora is quite the chill person if you get to know him. Right Veldora?" I asked as I turned back to see Veldora lounging on the Sofa with a Manga in his hands.
"Hmm? Yeah whatever." Veldora spoke as He didn't even look away from the manga.
"....."
"Leaving that aside, Your description of Hinata Sakaguchi doesn't fit the intelligence we have about her." Fuze spoke.
"What do you mean?"
"According to the information, She is supposed to be quite Rational and Reasonable person. But maybe there is a Law in the Luminism Code that prohibits from making deals with Monsters." Fuze elaborated.
"So there was no chance of a Conversation from the beginning huh?"
"As expected of the Guild Master of Blumund, your information network is as Intricate as they say. For me too, Hinata Sakaguchi's description fits yours." Gazef agreed with Fuze.
"Ours too." Ellis too added.
"Then it doesn't make sense why she would allow for the Otherworlders Summoning rituals. No matter how you look at it, it's morally not right." I thought out loud.
"How can we be sure that she allows it? For all we know, she might be unaware of it." Fuze justified.
It could be what Fuze-san is saying, maybe she really is unaware of it.
"Khufufu, Rimuru Sama, would I suggest removing her?" Our new addition to Tempest, Diablo, the demon who I summoned before my Evolution began spoke.
"Oi oi Diablo, Hinata is crazy strong you know?"
"So, you now want to take my position as Rimuru-sama's first secretary huh?" Shion spoke as a purple aura emitted all around her .
"My, Shion-dono, why do you think I would do that?" Diablo chuckled as He also started to emitt a Red aura.
"Enough!!"
"Ehh!" X 3
"Why are you so Shocked Veldora?!"
"Eh?! I-I-I wasn't trying to get involved at all!"
Veldora Stuttered as he dejectedly sat down.
"Listen, we are not going to actively trying to fight the Western Church. If Hinata doesn't come at us, we won't either. You guys understand?" I looked at the three.
"Haii!"
-------
"*Cough!* Back on track, as I was saying...."
Before I could continue, a fly interrupted us.
"Ouch!!"
"Ehh? Ramiris?" I asked in shock as Ramiris removed herself from the Glass and joined us.
"I have heard it all!! Tempest will be destroyed!!" Ramiris exclaimed urgently.
"Ehhhh?!"
"Um, Rimuru dono, who is this spirit?" Gazef asked, appearing unsure if he should refer to it as a Spirit or a Fly.
"She's an Acquaintance of mine. Although she doesn't look like it but she's One of the DemonLords." I embarrassedly said.
"Ehh, demon lords huh?" Fuze-san stoically said.
"What? You don't sound so enthusiastic? For your information, I am Ramiris of the Labrinth! You should be glad that you have seen me in the flesh?" Ramiris pointed at Fuze.
"I am sorry but After learning of Veldora's revival, I am not sure if anything will surprise me anymore." Fuze said, as the Dumb Trio silently nodded in agreement.
"What? Veldora? Heh! I can beat his ass with just half my power! After all I am the strongest Demon Lord, that Puny storm dragon is nothing before me. After all his era is over, the era of Ramiris the Great has Started..." She rambled on and on as I brought her on Veldora's chest.
"Veldora, deal with this kid for me."
"Hm?" Veldora removed his Manga as Ramiris saw Veldora's face.
"Eh? Eeeee" One look was enough for her to recognise Veldora and Faint.
"Back on track, As I was going to say, I already plan on announcing Veldora's revival and after some discussion with Gazef and Ellis Grimwald, We have decided to pin all the deaths of Falmuth to Veldora. You don't mind it right?" I asked.
"Hm? Just a Few thousand lives doesn't do much to the amount I have on my head, so I don't mind. After all, You are my sworn brother." Veldora head locked me as he reassured me.
"I am afraid that won't convince the smarter people though." A Familiar voice sounded from behind as all the members present immediately stood up in defence, Diablo , Shion and Benimaru shielding me.
"That's not how you Welcome a Guest." The same voice sounded but now it was from the position where Veldora Was Previously reading manga.
There he was, the man himself, seated on the sofa with his legs crossed, sipping on the tea and eating the snacks so elegantly that he looked like a noble.
[Notice, He is an Emperor]
Yes, I know Raphael-sensei, I was just pointing it out.
"I take back my statement. The Dragon Overlord Appearing before me is the greatest Shock far above the Revival of The Storm Dragon." Fuze confessed as moment after his words left him, his consciousness followed.
"Heh, he's quite funny. What do you say Veldora?" Bael Looked at Fuze for a Moment as he turned towards Veldora who was stiffly seated right beside him, sweat dripping all over him.
"Y-y-yeah..indeed." Veldora struggled to form words as he forced the words to come out of his mouth.
"Why so tense Brother?" Bael smiled at Veldora, more like grinned.
"Khufufu, Greetings, Overlord of All Dragon Kind, Emperor Bael Draconio Armenon." Diablo bowed at Bael as he introduced Bael to the ones who were still unaware of his identity.
