81 Chapter 81 : alliance

After being named Benimaru and successfully evolving into a Kijin, he was not just a Kijin, as his race was called the Flame Kijin, and this made him a semi-spiritual life form, and his physical and magical powers increased several times what they already were.

After naming Benimaru, Arata did not forget to name the others: Shion, Shuna, Souei, Kurobe, Hakurou, Hiiro, in addition to Benimaru's father, who was given the name Genimaru.

Because of his relationship with Benimaru, Arata did not spare them and named all the Ogre in the village, as their number did not exceed twenty or so, and certainly everyone in the village developed into Kijin.

After naming them all, Genimaru wanted the village to swear allegiance to Arata, but he refused, as he did all this to return Benimaru's help and give him his power when he needed it most.

Although Arata had neglected his duties, he had to return to the church as he was responsible for it and needed to manage it, but he did not forget to tell Benimaru and Genimaru about Rimuru and told them to ally with him as they would benefit greatly from this alliance.

He certainly did not forget to tell them about the identity of Rimuru as a Slime, which is something they did not mind since he must be very strong from what Arata said.

"Is this Slime a reincarnation?" - Benimaru asked curiously, as it was decided that he would go with some people to discuss the alliance with Rimuru, in addition to informing them about the Orc Lord, since even if they could win their battle, the losses would not be small, so it was better to ally with strong people. To reduce these sacrifices to a minimum.

"That's right." Arata nodded, not hiding anything from Benimaru as Rimuru didn't seem to care about hiding it.

"I see," Benimaru murmured, feeling curious about this reincarnated fellow.

"Is everyone ready?" Arata asked as he was going to use Spatial Manipulation to transport everyone to Rimuru Village.

"Yes!" - everyone chanted at the same time and respectfully.

'Great Sage, everyone travel with me to Rimuru Village' - Arata ordered in his thoughts as his control over Spatial Manipulation was not enough to allow others to accompany him.

{Everyone will be transferred to the specified location within 3... 2... 1... The transfer has been completed successfully}

In the blink of an eye, Arata and the others found themselves in a village under construction that contained many Hobgoblin and Goblina, but that was not the only thing as there were many Direwolves and there were some Dwarfs.

As soon as Arata appeared with the Kijin group everyone in the village entered fighting mode as the pressure that the Kijins were naturally releasing was extremely frightening especially when this aura was unfamiliar.

Even Rimuru and Shizu who were training in Veldora Cave felt the aura of the group of Kijins, causing them to rush at full speed towards the source of the aura.

"Who are you?" asked Rigurd, who was in command at the moment and quickly noticed Arata's presence. "Are they your friends?" asked Rigurd.

"Yes" - Arata nodded towards Rigurd - "So where is Rimuru since I would like to talk to him?"

"I'm here," Rimuru said and emerged from the crowd with Shizu beside him.

"Yo" - Arata smiled as he waved towards the two with a smile.

"You're finally awake," Shizu said, and quickly turned to Arata, examining him with undisguised concern. "Are you okay?"

"I'm fine, but I was just tired." Arata shook his head with an amused smile and spoke, "But I didn't expect you to be so bold, Shizu-chan."

"..." - Shizu was confused as she did not understand what Arata meant for a moment, but she soon noticed how she was removing Arata's clothes to make sure there were no injuries.

"N-no this..." Shizu stuttered with a red face as everyone was staring at them.

"I can't get married now," Arata said dramatically, wiping his fake tears. "You must take responsibility, Shizu-san, or I must call you my wife from now on."

"..." - Upon hearing Arata's teasing, Shizu's face turned red like blood and she felt like her heart would explode from its rapid beating, as she was over fifty years old and this was the first time anyone had teased her like this.

In the end, Shizu could not bear the embarrassment and ran towards their wooden house with her face in her hands, urging that she was too embarrassed to let others see her current face.

"..." - Benimaru stared at the scene in front of him with amusement as he did not expect Arata to change this much as he only cared about revenge and reviving his sister.

"..." - Rimuru stared at the interaction between the two and felt a little jealous, wishing he could meet the girl destined for him as soon as possible.

"Hmm!!..." Rimuru coughed fakely to attract everyone's attention and spoke to Arata - "So are these your friends?"

"That's right." - Arata nodded and pointed to Benimaru next to him - "He is the young master of the Ogres Village and I brought them with me to make an alliance between you as he is a reincarnated companion."

"Oh..." - Rimuru was surprised to see a friend of his, but he had to admit that he was jealous. If he was also a symbiote, then why couldn't he be as handsome as Benimaru, who seemed to still have his younger brother, but he quickly went back to work - "So." Let's go to the conference room."

Everyone quickly went back to work while some accompanied Rimuru to the meeting room as they did not want to show weakness in front of the Ogres.
