------------------------------------------

While Rimuru felt like he owes the Ogres a bit after they almost lost their lives to Acnologia, He was more interested in the way they dress and talk.

As they entered the Village, they found An standing in front of a huge load of Goblins who have migrated to the village.

"Why the hell are they here?" Acnologia spoke to Rigurdo.

Rigurdo stood straight and responded "These Goblins have heard about lord Acnologia's magnificent and admire your power and seek your protection, I couldn't bring myself to block them." In short words, the Goblins praised Acnologia and Rigurdo couldn't stand it in front of his lord's praise.

"..." Acnologia had a deadpan expression while looking at the Goblins who had puppy like eyes, the oldest tactic in the book. But that will not work on Acnologia.

"Oh, and we also need some working hands to help out in the rebuilding and to try out farming." Kaijin spoke out, He was watching from under a tree the whole time.

Without any hesitation "Welcome home!" Acnologia said. Anything for free labor. As long as he can remember, Acnologia doesn't need to pay monsters for their work. Free workers are always welcomed.

"Yaay!!" All of them goblins shouted in joy.

"Oh my! Master Acnologia's grace is unbound! As expected from our lord and savior!!" Rigurdo had tears in his eyes from crying.

'...Do I have to name these guys too?' Acnologia thought "How many are there?" He asked.

Rigurdo was more than happy to answer "Three Thousand my Lord." He said.

'...By Zeref's dirty soul!' Acnologia muttered under his breath 'Screw it all, I'll just give them numbers at the end of their names.'

"Alright, line up to get your names!" Acnologia said. That piece of news was like a bombshell to the Goblins. Much less the Ogres who were behind watching with Rimuru and Ranga.

"To name this large number of monsters at once!!" The pink haired Ogre princess spoke out in surprise.

Rimuru smiled "Yeah, We name every monster that comes to live and work under us, it is much easier for us and them to communicate."

While Acnologia was in the middle path f namig the Goblins he noticed Rimuru and the Ogres walking towards him.

"The hell are they doing here?" He asked with a frown. There he goes again, The little brother doing whatever he wants.

"I brought back to rest a bit, I also have some questions for them." Rimuru answered with his hands behind his back.

"Thank you for having us, Lord Acnologia!" The phone no princess was the first to speak "We do apologize for our rudeness earlier, I hope you can forgive us." She said. Her eyes shifted towards her brother in a meaningful glare.

"Uh...erm, Yes, I apologize for my hastiness." He bowed a little. And the rest of the Ogres followed.

Rigurdo was even more shocked when he saw the Ogres bow to Acnologia "Sasuga Acnologia-sama!!" He shouted.

Acnologia didn't give him any mind and dismissed the Ogres and Rimuru "Take them away." He said before continuing to name the Goblins, some even started to evolve already, and that was an interesting phenomena to Acnologia.

Inside their House, Rimuru was talking to the Ogres about their home.

"No matter how I look at it, these clothes and armor look Japanese to me." He said while leaning on wooden chair.

"It is has been part of our culture and traditions for generations to wear such clothes." The young Chief, now fully rested spoke. "The stories speak about a human that resided in our village years ago, he seems to be the one that brought such traditions to us."

"Even the housing style lord Rimuru described matches that of ours, it is the same as this one." The pink haired princess spoke.

Rimuru nodded "It seems to be another worlder like me." He said.

"But culture and such is nothing that is important now, not after our home was destroyed and our people killed." The young Chief spoke in hatred.

"Yeah, you said the Orcs attacked your village, aren't the Orcs supposed to be weaker than Ogres?" Rimuru said in surprise.

"Indeed, Young lord, that is normally the case. Which means that there is something wrong." This time, Ranga spoke from under the chair as he was sleeping next to Rimuru while keeping an eye out.

"I think so too, After all, they did not behave like Orcs, they had armor, weapons and were very hungry to east any flesh." The old white Ogre spoke "This reminds me of what happens with the Orc Lord is born...But I am not sure as I did not feel his presence back then."

"If I saw that bastard, I'll crush his head in!!" The purple female Ogre spoke with determination. "Not to forget the masked Devil too."

At the mention of the masked Devil, all Ogres had a cold look on their expressions.

Seeing this, Rimuru decided to change the subject. "So what do you want to do now? You have no home and no relatives to go to? Do you have a plan?" He asked.

"Erm...yeah." the young Chief responded.

'He totally has no plan!!' Rimuru called out the red ogre's bluff easily. 'At this rate they will just die in the woods alone.'

"Well, if you have no place to go to, You can stay here until you can stand on your own." Rimuru said after a thought.

That line made the Ogres surprised "Is...is that okay? I mean...Lord Acnologia seems to be angry with us." The pink princess spoke with worry. Currently there is no better choice than this. But she fears Acnologia's reaction.

"Indeed, while I am grateful for the gesture, I fear that I will cause you troubles."

Rimuru smiled "Don't be like that, you think my brother is fighting machine? If we spoke to him, I am sure he will agree to you guys staying." Rimuru jumped off his chair and spoke "What do you say? Wanna live with us?"

The Ogres looked at each other and shared a deep nod with each other.

After a while of speaking, it was already night time.

Acnologia has already finished naming every goblin that came to the village and Rigurdo entered the house where Rimuru is "Young Lord Rimuru, Please join us to celebrate! We have prepared a banquet."

"Yosh! Let's go have some fun!" Rimuru jumped off And walked out of the house followed by the Ogres.

When they got out, the village was full of lights and goblins and wolves were out out having fun, in the middle was Acnologia taking a drink with the Dwarves. It was a strange sight, even for the Ogres who believed themselves to be more noble and civilizated monsters.

In a rare sight, Acnologia was laughing...well, to the far onlookers like the Ogres, he may look like he was laughing at something funny, but funny to Acnologia is subjective...He was laughing because the Dwarves were telling him about the time they saw a dwarf get his dick sliced when making a sword... Subjective I tell you.

"Brother!" Rimuru jumped on Acnologia's back and laughed "Did you name everyone?" He asked.

Acnologia didn't mind him and nodded "Yeah, what do you want now?"

"Hihi! The Ogres wanna live with us until they can find a place to live in." Rimuru said as he took a cup to drink while the Ogres came from behind following Rimuru nervously, there is still a bit of trauma of fighting Acnologia there.

With one glance from him they felt a chill on their back "...I don't what profit I get from having you?" Acnologia questioned.

Rimuru was quick to speak "That is no problem they c--" but he was shut down.

"You shut up!" Acnologia interrupted Rimuru "You have a habit of speaking for others, I asked them." He shifted his gaze to the Ogres and spoke.

The young Chief was nervous "...We can help with the village work and we can help protecting it."

"That is covered, no need for that. As you can see we have thousands of Goblins and hundreds of wolves." Acnologia pointed at the bunch of monsters around him.

It is said that names monsters take after their lord. And now...Each monster named by Acnologia had his blue Tattoo glow in the dark night, letting out a strong and suffocating atmosphere.

The Ogres felt speechless 'How can a bunch of Goblins be this strong?!' they thought 'Was it because of him?' Acnologia was a mysterious being in itself. The thought that one single monster could name this amount of creatures and suffer no damage to his magical core is outrageous.

"I have no need for part timers, either join me and serve me like the rest and receive my protection or leave at once." There was no hesitation in Acnologia's words, he ment every word of that.

'Oi! That is not how you negotiate with people.' Rimuru whispered near Acnologia who pinched his nose.

The young ogre chief was stunned, every ogre looked at him, he was their leader and it was his choice to make.

"...allow me a second to think." He said before walking away.

The Ogres went about their thing, the princess and the purple female ogre went to taste some food, while the Gray skinned Ogre started speaking with the Dwarves.

The white haired was looking at Acnologia silently, when their eyes met, he gave Acnologia a nod of acknowledgement.

Deep inside the forest, the red haired chief was in deep thoughts, neat him behind a tree, the blue ogre came out of the shadows and spoke "What is your choice?"

"...What do you think?" The young Chief spoke.

"...It is not a bad deal, you have seen his strength and his followers. A safe place, but we also will be his servants, and you no longer have the highest word. However, you have seen how the Goblins are behaving. They love him." The Blue ogre said.

"...I see."

....

After a few minutes, the red haired Ogre came back, his eyes were determined.

When Acnologia landed his gaze at him, he let him speak.

The red ogre knelt down "Lord Acnologia, please accept us as your loyal servants, as the last of our kind, I swear loyalty to you." Behind him, the other ogres knelt down too.

"...A smart choice. And I accept you to serve and live under my wings." Acnologia said with a smirk.

Rimuru was thrilled "Yay!! We got new people! Everyone give a toaste our newcomers!" He raised a cup in the sky and shouted. His eyes then landed on Acnologia "Btw, what will you do about their names? Part of the reason that they accepted is because they hope that you will give them a name so they can be stronger, you know." He whispered.

"Well, I have a few--"

"Let me stop you right there, I already have a list of names for them." With a crafty smirk he said.

Acnologia smiled "Let me guess, You already foresaw this?"

Rimuru smiled "Shishishi, When you have a great Sage as your skill, everything is easy."

Later that night, Acnologia gave the Ogres their names. It seems Rimuru gave them names from his world, as he said that they are culturally related.

The red ogre was named Benimaru

His sister was names Shuna

The old white man was names Hakuro

While The Blue ogre was named Souei

The black haired one was named Kurobe

And lastly, the big breasted one with purple hair was named Shion.

Their evolution took place immediately, and when they emerged, even Acnologia was surprised, their strength multiplied by dozens. They got smaller, thinner, and more handsome and beautiful, but nothing short of powerful.

But they all again had one thing in similar, a Blue mark appeared on their bodies uniquely to them like the rest.

Benimaru had an obvious two Blue lines going down his face like tears.

Shuna had something like a crest on her arms.

Shion...she had a a tattoo resembling a horn...in her cleavage.

Souei had a moon crest on his back.

Hakuru had something like a tree going on his chest.

While Kurobe had something like Blue Fire on his arms.

These has been the most unique tattoos that emerged from any monster named by Acnologia so far.

Acnologia was satisfied and he smiled "Indeed, My servants should not be anything short of this."

.....

Meanwhile, in a far away land. A certain Crimson demon had his eyes closed, it was like he was suffering nightmares, which is strange for his is the source of nightmares.

In his mind, many pictures came to him.

A destroyed land, filled with blood and dead bodies. In the sky, he saw a huge creature with black wings and red eyes. Around him was a swarm of demons and monsters.

It was something that made this demon feel uneasy. He started having such hallucinations as he calls them as there is no other explanation to it about a few months ago.

'What is it? What will happen? Who is that creature?'

"Guy..." Suddenly he heard the voice of his partner from his side "...Are you okay?"

"Ah...Velzard, what brought you here?" The demon now named guy asked.

"You don't seem okay these days, but anyways, I am going to see my brother's sealing place, I feel weird about his disappearance. And somehow, I can feel his magical energy although it is massively different than his, I am worried that someone may have done something strange to my little brother." The white haired girl spoke in worry.

Guy only looked at her "...Fine, The Great Jura Forest is under a treaty from the demon lords, don't cause troubles. It will be a pain to deal with the others' annoying voices. Go and see and come out."

"Okay." The white haired girl; Vilzard. Smiled and her body glowed in white, an explosion irrupted as a beautiful white Dragon came out with snow falling from her wings, breaching the roof of the great castle of demon lord Guy.

Guy looked up at the hole in the roof "...There goes my roof again....When will she learn." Guy said with a sigh.
