---SHIDO POV---
As directed by Kotori Shidou led Rimuru to the outskirts of the city and went up a nearby hill
almost up to where Shidou looked towards the city, although he hadn't reached the designated place yet, it was enough to see the beautiful view of the city, he could even see the area he lived in from an angle that he couldn't see.
Rarely seen, Seeing that Shidou seemed to be attracted to something, Rimuru also looked over and said
" It 's beautiful too, so this is what you mean? ,looking at the city from here " Rimuru said while looking towards the city with a smile on his satisfied face
I was stopping to look at the city when suddenly there was a sound that made Shidou startle
<< hey don't stand there let's hurry up we need to execute the plan before dark >> Kotori
Kotori's sound startled Shidou and caught Rimuru's attention
" What's wrong? " Rimuru asked with a face that didn't understand why Shidou was startled
Seeing Rimuru paying attention to him, Shidou quickly said
" Ah no! It's nothing, I think we should just keep going up " Shido
" yeah okay " replied Rimuru
Shido and Rimuru went up together to the designated spot, which was a small park with areas where the city could be viewed in its entirety.
both Shidou and Rimuru when they arrived they looked down to see the scenery
After a while Shidou said to Rimuru
" I'm going to buy some food, so stay here. " Shido
" Fine , but go fast! " Rimuru
" I know" Shido
Shidou went to the ice cream counter and said
" Give me two ke... Kotori? Why are you weird... " Shidou saw a girl sitting in the ice cream shop with red hair that he could recognize immediately, so he stopped and was about to scream.
Kotori's name But before he finished his sentence, a plate smacked Shidou's face and Shidou was stunned
" Hey Kotori!, how dare you... " Shidou asked confusedly
" Don't mind me, get these 2 ice creams and go back to her, according to Reine's report, her mood bar has reached 67 already, she seems to be feeling pretty good feel free about these things, so don't keep her waiting. " Kotori
without letting Shidou respond, Kotori continued
" Just do as planned, we'll get out of here completely so you two can have some alone time and now go back, don't keep her waiting " Kotori
" Ah! that's okay " Shidou couldn't say anything more, so he reluctantly obeyed
Shidou with 2 ice cream in his hands turned around and approached Rimuru
As for Rimuru, because he was bored while waiting, Rimuru sat down on a nearby stone bench
Behind Shidou, Kotori was in a hurry to clean up the shop to return to Fraxinus to observe the situation
When approaching Rimuru
Shidou reached out one hand holding an ice cream and spoke
" I bought you ice cream " Shidou said but his voice was shaking
" um thanks, what's wrong with your face? " Rimuru, who was sitting on the stone bench, reached out for an ice cream and asked.
" ah...ah it's nothing but an accident " Shidou said and sat down next to Rimuru
It's already afternoon, the sun has slowly set, leaving a poetic scene with golden rays
Rimuru was sitting on the stone bench with one hand holding ice cream and one hand relaxing seemingly defenseless, a petite figure swinging his legs on the stone bench with a smiling face.
the golden rays of sunlight hit Rimuru's face, Rimuru's eyes, which were originally golden, were made many times more iridescent.
the golden rays of the sun shining through Rimuru's blue hair made it a little yellow
at this sight, it gave Shido a strange feeling, completely different from when he first met Rimuru, it was like two different people.
" A delicious ice cream " Rimuru
Rimuru's words interrupted Shidou's train of thought
" I 'm glad you like it " Shidou said with a smile
" Ah! that's right! I just remembered this " exclaimed Rimuru
" what? " Shido
" I just remembered why I needed to find you, I need your help in sealing my spiritual energy. " Rimuru
Hearing Rimuru's words, Shidou's brain seemed to stop working
Did she come to find me? That means she already knew... that... but why did she act surprised when she heard her first statement?
But Shidou's confusion was broken by a scream coming from his earphone
<< ohhhhh it was a direct attack >> Kannazuki was carried away for re-education and returned just in time
---In the control room---
Kotori was just about to raise her hand to snap her fingers and give Kannazuki another vacation Kannazuki saw that and hurriedly begged.
" forgive me, please forgive me " kannazuki
Kotori lowered her hand and quickly kicked Kannazuki's subordinates
"ah~~~ thank you " Kannazuki said and collapsed in a refreshing tone
Kotori turned around and said to Shidou
" Ask her if she knows how sealing is done? to avoid misunderstandings leading to unexpected events " Kotori was very worried about Rimuru's personality.
If the sealing succeeds but then her emotions become unstable due to the kiss, that's okay too
---Shido POV---
After hearing Kotori's words, Shidou replied " yes " and turned to ask Rimuru
" So do you know how the sealing is done? " Shido
Hearing Shidou's question, Rimuru looked up at Shidou with an innocent face full of guilt
" I don't know " Rimuru replied emphatically with a still very innocent face
Hearing that, everyone in the control room fell back
<< It's good that we asked her first instead of wasting it >> Kotori
" I agree " Shido
<< Then let's start by talking about 'path' and then we'll gradually make her understand, to avoid her overreacting >> Kotori
" Okay " Shidou whispered in a determined voice as if to accept what was going to happen
Just as he was about to open his mouth to explain, Rimuru spoke up
" Looks like the worms have finally made their move. " Rimuru
Hearing Rimuru Shidou's words, he was dumbfounded
---in the control room---
Kannazuki reports
" The warning found out that the AST group appeared with a large number of members, they took action " Kannazuki said seriously.
Hearing the warning, Kotori raised her voice in surprise
" No way, we've raised our vigilance to the highest level, how could the ASTs pass undetected " Kotori
" reported that the task force could not be contacted, all communications were cut off " Kannazuki
Constantly the bad news, reaching Kotori's ears but not informing Shidou in time
"BOOM" A loud explosion came from Shidou's side
<< Shido are you okay >> Kotori asked worriedly
<< Shido? >> Kotori
---Shido POV---
<< Alert found that AST group appeared with a large number of members, they took action >> Kannazuki
after hearing Kannazuki's warning, Shidou involuntarily understood what Rimuru said
But before he could act, the place where Shidou was sitting was already...
"BOOM" A loud explosion occurred at the place where Shidou and Rimuru were sitting
The explosion was so loud that it caused Shidou's ears to tingle and nothing but tinnitus could be heard
But the strangest thing was that everywhere around was blown up except where Rimuru and he were sitting
" wh ... " Shidou didn't understand what was going on when Rimuru touched his shoulder
" you get out of here, it's too dangerous for you here " said Rimuru and slowly stood up
Shidou looked at Rimuru's gaze
This time it was an annoyed face, sharp eyes like the first time seeing Rimuru
Seeing that Shidou knew that the situation was dangerous was about to say something when Rimuru spoke up to prevent Shidou from speaking
" don't worry I won't kill any of them " Rimuru said and then walked away
After a while, When I regained my senses
Shidou heard Kotori calling him through his earphone
<< Shido are you okay >> Kotori said in a panicked voice
" I'm fine but this... " Shido
Hearing Shidou's voice, Kotori seemed to be very nervous and said
<< that's right, things went beyond plan >> Kotori
---Rimuru POV---
After following Shidou for a while, he reached a long set of stairs that extended all the way up to Mount Rimuru and Shidou started to climb up the steps.
<< why is this guy taking me somewhere, going through all the areas but not entering any, and then taking me to the mountains >> Rimuru grumbled in an annoyed tone
After walking for a while, Rimuru saw Shidou looking in the direction of the city so he also looked curiously
Rimuru looked towards the city and was surprised by the scene in front of him
" It 's beautiful, so is this what you mean? ,looking at the city from here " Rimuru
It's true that a high area is easier to see, from here you can clearly see the sights of the city
The scenery is peaceful, it would be comforting if Rimuru couldn't sense the hundreds of tracking devices heading towards Rimuru
While admiring the scenery, Rimuru noticed that Shidou was acting strangely beside him, so Rimuru asked
" What's wrong? " Rimuru
After Rimuru's question, Shidou quickly replied
" Ah no! It's nothing, I think we should just keep going up " Shido
" umm okay " Rimuru
After Rimuru agreed, Shidou and Rimuru climbed these long stairs together
upon reaching the top of the hill, both Rimuru and Shido went to the balcony to look down at the city once more, this time with a larger view.
" I'm going to buy some food, so stay here. " Shido
" It's fine, but let's go quickly " Rimuru
" I know " Shido
Rimuru continued to gaze at the scenery below
After a while, Rimuru got bored so he sat down
<< a~ I haven't felt this comfortable in a long time >> Rimuru
<< A few days ago, when you were at the hot springs in Tempest, you said the same thing >> Ciel
<< it was different then, it's because you don't understand >> Rimuru
After waiting for a while, Shidou finally came back with two ice creams in hand
" I bought you ice cream " Shidou called out to Rimuru from behind and handed out an ice cream
Rimuru noticed that Shidou's face looked like it was hit by something, so he asked and at the same time reached out his hand to grab the ice cream.
" um thanks, what's wrong with your face " Rimuru
" ah...ahahaha it's nothing! It's just an accident " Shidou said with a wry laugh.
Seeing that Rimuru also ignored it
Ignoring everything in life Rimuru turned around and tried a piece of ice cream
The cool, slightly sweet ice cream made Rimuru squeal
" A delicious ice cream " Rimuru
" I'm glad you like it " Shidou turned to rimuru
Looking at Shidou's expression reminded Rimuru of something... something
" Ah! that's right " exclaimed Rimuru
" What's wrong? " Shido
" I just remembered why I needed to find you, I need your help in sealing my spiritual energy. " Rimuru
After hearing Rimuru's words, Shidou's face went blank
<< oh did I say something wrong.... >> Rimuru thought to himself
After a while, Shidou turned around and asked Rimuru
" so do you know how the sealing is done " Shidou with a worried expression
After hearing Shdo's question, Rimuru didn't know anything and turned to ask Ciel
<< I can explain it to you >> Ciel
<< No, now there's no need to let them explain >> Rimuru
Hearing the old saying again and Rimuru knew that there would be no further questioning from Ciel when she used this phrase So Rimuru had to answer
" I don't know " Rimuru
After Rimuru's words, shido had a complicated expression But right after that, Rimuru heard Ciel's voice
<< WARNING: AST members have started moving >> Ciel
<< did they act? I'm so tired~~~, activate the oath of king Uriel >> Rimuru
Although it was not clear who was friend or foe, Rimuru could still sense the living entities around him, so it was not surprising when he announced the attack.
<< report: can use the spirit power you currently possess to save some of your energy >> Ciel
<< okay? I thought my spirit power was only 2 skills >> Rimuru
<< master, after further analysis your spirit power has the attribute of space, with it you can create, destroy everything in space within the sphere of influence from which we can can create an area of space like the barrier you manage >> Ciel
hearing Ciel say that Rimuru felt happier, if it only had 2 skills it would be too boring but knowing many ways to use the power of the Spirit Rimuru will do many things
<< So why try creating a barrier to eliminate everything you want to go in >> Rimuru excitedly answered
<< yes master >> Ciel
Immediately a circular area of space surrounded Rimuru and Shido with Rimuru as the center, it was like a kind of barrier that only Rimuru could sense, but at the same time, the amount of spiritual energy that had to be expended to maintaining it is huge, this won't be suitable for a long match
After talking with Ciel, Rimuru could feel large bullets with maximum destructive power approaching Rimuru from all four directions.
In order to see what this void barrier could do, Rimuru stood still and said something like a warning to Shidou.
" Looks like the worms have finally made their move. " Rimuru
After Rimuru had just finished speaking, a loud explosion occurred, but because it was protected by a dome that was capable of turning everything inside it into nothingness (not applicable to things already in it).
Looking back, Shidou looked confused and scared even though Rimuru had already signaled
But let's just ignore it, now Rimuru has to deal with these ASTs
" get out of here, it's too dangerous for you here " Rimuru said and touched the shoulder of Shidou, who was still shocked by what just happened and slowly stood up.
But come to think of it, a young man in this era wasn't used to killing at all, so Rimuru had to tell him something to reassure him.
" Don't worry I won't kill any of them " Rimuru said and then continued walking out of the smoke.
Stepping out of the smoke, Rimuru's body glowed and Rimuru put on the Magic Dress as a sign of acceptance of the declaration of war from the AST.
the members of the AST saw a flash of light, knowing that they could not defeat Rimuru yet, so they entered a battle stance.
Rimuru called out his angel " come here
<ERABUS>"
Immediately Rimuru's Astral Dress appeared along with Rimuru's paradise of Erabus was a Katana
When he came out of the smoke, Rimuru encountered a familiar face
" oh long time no see, white haired girl " Rimuru
Up in the sky, on four sides were members of the AST fully equipped and surrounded by equipment that Rimuru hadn't had a chance to see in his previous encounter.
and standing in front of them all was a white haired girl with a murderous face looking at Rimuru
" You... monster! " the white-haired girl
