"...So you were exiled?" Acnologia, sitting in his palace, together with Benimaru, Shuna, Hakuro, Souei, Irene, and Veldora. In front of them was a small Lizardman.

"Y-Yes!!!" Gaberu shouted 'What the hell is wrong with this set up?!' he thought, to him, everyone is stronger than the other, complete otherworld monsters, each one in their own league.

"And you want to serve me? Did you say a few days ago that I should be the one serving you?" Acnologia smirked and spoke.

Gaberu froze for a moment "I-I ate some mushrooms before coming here, it must be because of that, I wasn't in my right mind! Hahaha! I mean you! Serve me? The mushrooms must have hit the spot, hahaha!!"

Acnologia chuckled, teasing this lizard is a fun thing to do for him "Fine...You are welcome to join us and live among us."

Once he heard that, Gaberu's face regained it's light and he bowed "Ooh! Master! You are the most gracious!"

At that moment, the door was opened and Rimuru entered together with Milim. "Brother, We got news that King Gazel is coming in an hour." He said.

Gaberu saw Rimuru and his eyes watered and tears started falling "Ah! This must be fate." He said, his voice filled emotions startling Rimuru "To think that I will meet my savior once again, if this is not fate, I don't know what else it could be." He walked to Rimuru and grabbed his hands together "My heart beats faster when I see you in front of me, what have you done to me, my Angel!"

Rimuru's body twitched with goosebumps and his face turned blue from cringing so hard.

"PPFT!!" Suddenly he heard a snorting sound, he quickly looked around and saw everyone covering their faces while trembling and trying to hold their laugh. Acnologia was grabbing Veldora's arm while hiding his face. While Veldora wasn't trying to hide anything as he was looking at Rimuru with his face distorted ready to explode in laughter.

"A-ah, what the hell is going on?" Milim asked, even her took notice of the situation.

"Nothing...." Gaberu spoke with a calm tone and a full gentleman behavior "I have came to realize that I am nothing but a man in love, That's why, I GABERU ANNOUNCE--GAHAR!" before he could say it, he got kicked away violently with a disgusted face.

"SHUT THE HELL UP!!" Rimuru shouted while panting...he isn't even supposed to be breathing though.

"Oi oi oi, My dear sister, it's not good to refuse a man's confession you know." Veldora said with a huge smug expression while pointing at the twisted Gaberu stuck in the wall.

"T-that's right...Pfft! I mean, this elder brother would want nothing but for his sister to be happy and in love!" Acnologia was fighting so hard to not laugh but it seems he is failing with the huge grin on his face.

"I AM A MAN!!" Rimuru shouted with a red face.

"What are you talking about, that's a woman's body, no?" Veldora said.

"How can a person be be a man and a woman at the same time?" Acnologia said, he walked to Rimuru and put his hand on his shoulder and spoke with great care "Do not be afraid to embrace your true self."

Irene chuckled "Rejecting one's self is a bad thing for mentality, Dear Rimuru, Be brave."

Rimuru's eyes darkened 'You want to play this game...Fine...I will unleash the horrors of my world on you.' he thought, he stretched his hand and light appeared in it forming a book in his palm.

"You guys..." Rimuru called getting the attention if Irene and Acnologia "Have you ever heard of Futanari?" He asked.

Hearing this, Veldora tensed up "Don't Tell me?! Rimuru!"

"Hm, what's that?" Acnologia asked.

"Have a look... Milim cover your eyes." Rimuru presented the book to Acnologia and Irene while putting his hand on Milim's eyes.

The world became slow, Veldora started moving quickly as he saw Irene and Acnologia opening the book and Rimuru looking at them with an evil smirk of victory.

He jumped towards the book, every millisecond counts "Must... Protect... Family!!" In the last second, just when the two were about to experience a world they should have never seen, Veldora snatched the book in light speed, causing a huge wind pressure, breaking through the wall and crashing outside the village.

Acnologia and Irene had a dumbfounded expression on them as Veldora stood up and transformed into a dragon "I WILL COME BACK AFTER I DESTROY THIS!!" He spoke before flying away to the biggest volcano in the world and throwing the book inside the hot lava...

And just to be sure he blow up the volcano too.

....

King Gazel arrived and Acnologia got ready to meet him, Shuna prepared a suit for him with the help of a still angry Rimuru, Apparently Gaberu was still after his tail for a time before Milim sent him flying saying "Stop disturbing my time with my bestie!" Now Rimuru loves Milim even more.

When Gazel saw his old dwarf friends, Kaijin was about to kneel for his former king, however, his body wouldn't move, pike it was captured by invisible wires...ahm ahm, Souei.

Gazel noticed this and only laughed at it 'I guess they wouldn't allow my people to give me more respect than their lord...It is their right, I have exiled them and they now live under a new king...' In his thoughts, Gazel locked eyes with Acnologia "Acnologia-dono, I really hope that you can overlook my past mistakes and misdeeds and start a new relationship for the sake of our people and their future." He extended his hand once again, Acnologia took his hand by force and spoke.

"I heard your words and I have taken them seriously, I will do the same. For the better future." He said.

Gazel and Acnologia signed the Magic Contract, from that moment onward, Dwargon and now Tempest are allies in the good and the bad.

Gazel also throw Vista, the minister who was the reason behind Rimuru's imprisonment and Kaijin and his brothers' exile "This guy also has a good head on him, I figured that there is no better place for him beside his old rival. Keep him if you want, he is a great alchemist and inventor."

"Kaijin...Lord Rimuru...I am deeply sorry, I beg for your forgiveness, I wish to live a new life in a meaningful way." He said with tears in his eyes.

"I have nothing to forgive, what you did was a scumbag move, however...I can not refuse to work with you again." Kaijin said with a manly smile.

Rimuru only shrugged "I don't care." He really didn't, matter of fact, he forgot that this guy existed.

Acnologia dismissed the conversation "Rigurdo, give this guy a place to stay and also give him what he needs."

"Yes! Acnologia-sama!" Rigurdo escorted Vista away.

Acnologia didn't forget to give Souei a hidden hint to watch Vista, no way was he gonna let him in that easily.

"Well, now that we are done here. We need to celebrate our alliance, no?" Gazel said the word that Acnologia started to fear [PARTIES!!]

"Of course!" Benimaru said.

"I shall prepare a feast for everyone!" Shuna added.

"I will help too!" Shion said with a smile

"NO!!!"

.....

Later that night, after Gazel left with his men, Tempest was still celebrating. Acnologia was at the roof of his japanese styled mansion looking at the sky.

"Here you are." A sweet voice spoke from behind and Irene walked to him silently with no sound to her steps.

"Ah...you...what do you want?" Acnologia displayed no reaction and only continued to watch.

"Nothing, I just came to say that I will be leaving tomorrow morning." Irene answered.

"Is that so. Goodbye."

Irene couldn't help but chuckle "So cold...so...You are now a king...King of the monster, Acnologia Tempest. Long gone the Dragon King?" She said as she sat beside him.

"I was a king...I am a king...and will still be a king." He said.

"You know, Dragon King....There are many who call themselves Dragon kings, I, Myself is a Dragon Empress, your claim is no longer valid on that." She said with a little smirk on her face.

Acnologia grunted "Of course there are many, I am not free for them yet... However, now, my priority is this land, if I fail here, then no other king tittle is enough for me."

Irene looked at Acnologia for a second "This path...you will face a lot of hardship, the people in this world are strong, there are more powerful people than the Ice Dragon from before...." She reached for his arm and showed him the blue cracks "You won't last..." She said.

Acnologia frowned "I just need a stronger body." He said.

"No body will contain you...as the same thing that happened to me, every body will wear out and leave you vulnerable." Irene said seriously. Her first days in this world were unpleasant too.

"..." Acnologia had no words, he does not have any idea currently.

Irene smiled "I can help you." She said.

"What?" Acnologia looked at her "Why? If I remember...I didn't do Anything for you to help."

Irene nodded "True...But no matter how I say it will come out wrong...This favor, take it as a token of friendship."

Acnologia looked at her for a second before..."PFFT!! Kahaha!!"

Irene followed after him "Hahahaha!!"

Both had a good laugh as their faces turned pink from laughing.

"Oh man! It's so strange hearing it from you." Acnologia said.

"Right?!" Irene leaned on Acnologia's shoulder as she held her laughter.

However, Acnologia gave Irene a slap on the back "I'll accept it." He said.
