Chapter 8: Birth of Manas: Ciel.
'From Previous Chapter'
<<Answer: If [Beelzebub] can be used at full power while simultaneously using [Raphael]'s of [analysis and appraisal] on individual Velgrynd, then it is possible to devour Velgrynd store her in [Stomach].>>
>>Ok, then let's do it. I am counting on you, partner.<<
'Third Person POV:'
Just as Velgrynd was releasing her full power Rimuru made his move.
"Swallow it up [Beelzebub]" Rimuru said and a purple vortex come out of his hand and tried to devour Velgrynd.
The key word is 'tried' because as of right now Velgrynd is angry and not a little angry she was mad, really really mad. And in a state of anger she released all her power.
combining with her aura her magicules which were over 55M became deadly to any person they come into contact with. And now she is letting it all go and in these state of Velgrynd, Rimuru is trying to devour Velgrynd which is making it a lot more difficult.
True Dragons are natural catastrophic beings with immense strength and magicules and devouring them is not an easy task and Rimuru is doing this.
But if Velgrynd was willing to get absorbed like Veldora then for Rimuru it was not a big problem but right now Velgrynd is retaliating with all her might.
And this making Rimuru absorbing Velgrynd much more difficult. And the result of all this is right now Rimuru is filling pain a lot more pain. An unimaginable pain it's like his soul is being torn apart.
'What is this?....Why am I in so much pain ?.....it hurts!!!!...so much hurts!!!... it's like my soul is being torn apart.'. these were his thoughts.
Being this much pain he did only one thing and that is asking his trusty partner about this problem.
>>Raphael what is happening why am I feeling this much pain?<<
<<Master...master I am trying my best to ease the pain and analyse Scorch Dragon store her, but it's taking a long time she is also retaliating which makes this process much more difficult that's why master in>>
Raphael said this to Rimuru in a very panic voice. As of right now Raphael is very afraid that her master will abandon her because she is failing him. He has trusted her and entered in this fight but Raphael is not able to live up to her master's exceptions and these is making her very nervous. Because the fear of getting disowned, the fear of getting abandoned.
And because of this thoughts the King of Wisdom is in a state of panic. The skill which was initially created without any self-awareness and emotions is right now showing emotions. The skill which was only meant to do calculation based things is now starting to understand emotions.
All of this is going on with Raphael.
With Rimuru he is starting to think that he is going to die in this fight. Having in pain he has forgotten that he has one more ultimate skill, but right now the only thing he is thinking that he is going to die. But even in this condition he sences her partners emotions.
>>Hey Raphael it's not your fault that we are in this situation. It's just we don't know the power of a True Dragon before. So don't worry about it and even if I die here I will just reborn in one day so there is no need to worry. And even I die I will never abandon you because we are eternal partner's bounded by soul.<<
After hearing her master's voice the King of Wisdom who was in the state of panic calm downed a little. And the previous emotions of fear and anxiety were replaced by relief, love and happiness. Relief that her master will not abandon her. Happiness that her master not only consider her a skill but a partner. And with this she also started to feel a new emotion and that is love. Love for her master.
>>Hey Raphael once you said that if I die then I will reborn in only one day, right. But I never died in this second life so I don't know that I will have all of my previous skills with me or not? So all the time we are together I would like to give you a gift. Please tell me does Raphael is your name or title ?<<
<<No master Raphael is only a title not name.>>
Raphael replied to Rimuru. She don't know what her master is thinking. She don't know what her master is trying to do so in confusion she just answered her master.
>>All right then I will give you a name 'Ciel'. It means the voice from heaven or teacher. I gave you this name because you always help me and teach me new things and your voice is like the voice coming from heaven. I know it's not a great name but please bear with it.<<
This is incomprehensible to the King of Wisdom. The King of Wisdom felt full of wonder.That is, confused. Rejoice, in other words. That is, feelings are expressed.
These unforeseen uncertainties make it impossible for the "King of Wisdom" to conceal its own overwhelming power.
>>Let's see. How about 'Ciel'? Let's just call you "Ciel." You've always taught me a lot. How are you getting along? Bear with it even if it isn't satisfying.<<
Raphael no_____ "Ciel," the Wisdom King felt a depth of emotion that a skill would not have felt otherwise.
I am now, blissfully happy forever... Thinking, to be sure.
Meanwhile, evolution's time has come.
With the new found emotions the evolution came.
Manas: "Ciel" was born from the ultimate power. the "King of Wisdom," at this point and became a ultimate existance.
<<I the Manas: Ciel is my name. I am nucleus of Theosophy, unifier powers.With Lord Rimuru's "soul," master's second executor. Rimuru, I'll always keep an eye out for you! So please take care me master.>>
Ciel concurred. There is no longer anything to be afraid of the current situation. With the new power the analysis of Velgrynd is just child's play for Ciel. Now it can be done in seconds.
>>Is it true that I am the one ? How do you feel about it ?<<
Ciel was overwhelmed with joy just hearing that from Rimuru.
>>Then show me your strength!!<<
Ciel's highest reward was to be ordered by Rimuru.
<<Rest assured master analysis of individual Velgrynd is done. Now absorbing possible.>>
With that the giant purple vortex completely engulfed Velgrynd and only matter of seconds Velgrynd was absorbed by Rimuru.
'Rimuru POV:'
Now that fight is over I need to think about what should I do about Velzard ? She will not stay quiet after seeing her sister getting absorbed like that and also Velgrynd is angry too. Ah.. so much problem.
"Kuhahhahaha I knew I!!!!! I knew it that you can defeat my sister Rimuru." Veldora said while coming over me.
Seriously all this problem is started because of him. Only he get along with his sister's fine, it will be not come to this.
Ohh.. I know how about I send Veldora to Velgrynd. I can let him deal with Velgrynd in my [Stomach] while I will deal with Velzard.
"You know that your other sister is also here all this time, right?" I asked him.
"Wha...what ar..e you saying Rimuru don't joke aro..around like this!!!" He said in nervous voice while looking for his sister.
What dude, he is seriously now getting panic. How much is he afraid of his sister's anyway?
Oh... Well this will be good too. On the name of Velzard I will send him into [Stomach] where he can deal with Velgrynd while I can see that what is going in the head of Velzard.
"Hey buddy there is no need to worry. I can send you into my [Stomach] like last time where you can hide." I said to him.
"Thanks Rimuru I knew that you have answer of my every problem. Now let me go." He said preparing to go into my [Stomach].
"Ok then. Swallow it up [Beelzebub]" and just like that I absorbed Veldora.
I think I heard something like 'you traitor' nah it's must be my imagination.
"So what are you doing here miss Velzard?" I asked looking at the direction of Velzard.
Just as I said that a lady came from the direction I was looking. She is just as beautiful as Velgrynd.
She has snow-white hair and blue eyes. She also have D-cup breast like Velgrynd but her seems bigger tho. She also have toned thighs but they are also bigger than Velgrynd. all in all she is a hot MILF. Why both of dragon sister's are so hot!!! It's unfair. I might even try.
Why am I suddenly feeling that my life is in the denger!!
"My~ my~ aren't you quite a powerful that able to detect me." She said.
What is she saying I know that she is here since the beginning. Does all the True Dragons are this much arrogant or this three are different case?
"I know you are here from the beginning. So are you also want to fight me or what ? Do you want to take revenge that I defeated your siblings ?" I asked her because I can clearly see from her expression that she also wanted to fight me.
"Yes I also want to fight you!!" She said.
I knew it!!!! I knew it that today is not my day. First Velgrynd and now Velzard.
"But I don't want to fight you because you defeated my siblings, they lost because they are weak I want to fight you because big brother had taken interest in you and I want to know why?!!!" She said.
What is she saying ? Big brother had taken interest in me ? Is she mean Veldanava?
"What are you saying I don't understand?" I asked her since I need to know what is she saying.
"That does not matter let's fight!!!!" She said.
"Wait...wait... What will I get in return for fighting with you ?" I asked her because if everything goes right then I will be able to get one more dragon Factor today.
"How about the same deal you made with Velgrynd. You can have my Dragon Factor as well." She said not concerned about it.
"Fin by me." I said to her.
"Now then let's start!!!!"
(A.N. here Velzard and Velgrynd are not as strong as in the LN and they also didn't master there ultimate skills. Because they didn't have that much experience yet.)
'Third Person POV:'
Just as Velzard said that she shoots multiple ice spheres towards Rimuru. But Rimuru just dodged all of it.
With now evolved Ciel his thaught acceleration also increased as well as calculating speed and capacity. With this fighting Velzard is easy for Rimuru. Because as of right now Velzard is superior in only magicules while on the other hand Rimuru is superior to Velzard in speed, skills.
With that Rimuru started to fight Velzard. and after dodging and absorbing multiple attacks of Velzard he feels that his movements were slowed a bit.
It happened because Velzard had used her ultimate skill [Patience King: Gabriel]. But to Rimuru it is not a big problem because he is still faster than Velzard.
Rimuru moved in a fast speed ignoring the dizziness he felt earlier and punched Velzard in a gut very hard that Velzard crashed on the ground creating a creater.
Backing a little Rimuru prepared himself and throwed several Death-Heralding Wind a magic of Veldora. Which he has access through his one of the ultimate skill.
But to his surprise before his attack could hit Velzard temperature around him started to decrease drastically. In matter of seconds snow started to form around them.
The surroundings temperature dropped below zero, anything in the vicinity would have their blood turned into ice if they possessed any physical features.
An controlled attack that could freeze the entire forest as well as the countries near it if it was allowed to run amok in the entire area. It was an attack that had been directly powered by her Ultimate Skill, {Patience King : Gabriel}
It is Snow Crystal the ultimate attack of Velzard which can be used as a offensive and defensive. Right now she is using it as a shield.
Seeing that his previous attack doesn't work Rimuru tried some more attacks but non of his attack was able to penetrate Velzard's Snow Crystal. In times of this his trusty partner came to help.
<<Suggestion, use [Beelzebub]>>
Putting his trust in his partner he used [Beelzebub] and to his and Velzard's surprise the Snow Crystal was completely shattered and absorbed by [Beelzebub].
"Your attack is good and powerful too just like you but it's time to end this battle!! Swallow it up [Beelzebub]"Rimuru said and activated his skill and started to absorb Velzard.
Velzard tried to resist like Velgrynd but with overpowered Ciel's analysis her aura and magicules were transferred into [Stomach] and she was absorbed by [Beelzebub].
'Rimuru POV:'
That was easy. I thaught that True Dragons supposed to be strong ? And how am I able to win against two True Dragons in one day ?
Well it doesn't matter now. Right now I need to see what are they doing.
>>Hey Ciel what are they doing ? Did you start analysis of Velgrynd and Velzard's dragon Factor?<<
<<Master analysis of Velgrynd and Velzard's dragon Factor is complete along with there ultimate skills; [Charity King : Raguel] [Patience Gabriel]>>
>>Hey..hey..hey.. hold it right there. What are you saying? Are those skills of Velzard and Velgrynd?<<
>>Yes, is there any problem master.<<
What is she.... Did she just stilling peoples skill or what ? And how is she able to analyse both of their Dragon Factors in this fast ?
<<No master I am not stilling anyone's skill just analysed their skills and because of this it is possible to have the useful sub-skills there while they still skills. And it's for masters sake.>>
>>ah...oh.... I see then you can do that but don't do anything more than analysis ok. Do not try to experiment with their skills. I mean I don't want to get into more trouble with True Dragons more than already I am. And don't do anything with my skills as well. Because if anything happens I want to be ready and with new skills it will be difficult so for the time being let them be.<<
<<Understood. >>
>>So you can do whatever want with my skills after we return to underworld.<<
>>And how are you able to complete analysis of not only one but two True Dragons in this short amount of time? doesn't it take almost five days to finish analysis of Veldora ? <<
<<Compare to when I was just a ultimate skill, now my power and calculation, analysis speed has increased by millions times. Because of that can do things fast.>>
>>I see. Does that mean you are millions times stronger than before ?<<
<<Yes. >>
>>That's good I guess... Well what are the three siblings are doing in my [Stomach]?<<
<<They are currently fighting with each other.>>
>>Those three I should release them first. And you sound more fluent than before !!!<<
<<Yes. After evolving into Manas I have gained my own ego and can think freely now as well learn understand emotions a little.>>
>>Oho.... That's good now we are more like a partner than before. And don't worry with me you can learn all about emotions. We don't have any hurry you can take all the time you want and throw all the worries you have towards me.<<
Just as Rimuru said that Ciel's love for Rimuru only increased.
<<Understood. >>
>>Now let's release them.<<
[Beelzebub]!!!
And with that I released three of them. Just like Veldora I only released their spiritual body with their nucleic heart leaving their physical body and Dragon Factor behind. And with that I acquired three out of four Dragon Factor.
<<Notice: Soul corridor between master and individual Velgrynd Velzard has been formed. Also gained two new Ultimate skills; they are, [Scorch Empress : Velgrynd] [Frost Velzard].>>
>>Are they just like Veldoras skill ?<<
<<Yes. >>
"You what did you do with us ? Where did you put us there ?" It was Velgrynd, she started to ask me questions in a rapid rate.
"Calm down, calm down I'll tell everything to you." I said to them.
After they calm down a little I explained everything to them. Like I used on of my ultimate skill and defeated them and stored them in my personal space. Along the way I told about the skills I got from them and that skills function.
Like they are immortal and it's not like before where they will get revived with losing some of their memories and in some cases their personality will change. But with my skills as long as I am alive they will be truly immortal like they won't use there memory and personality.
I also told them that I have access to their True Dragon magic like Veldora's storm magic, Velgrynd's scorch magic and Velzard's frost magic.
After telling that Velzard was okay with it but Velgrynd was angry that I can use her magic any time I want but after talking with Velzard and Veldora she finally agreed.
Now here we are sitting on the chairs that I stored in my [stomach] after taking them from a human country. We are talking about some random things because we don't have anything specific to do as of now. But I have a nagging question that why are they angry at Veldora all the time ?
"Hey guy's I have a question?" I asked them because all of them are somewhat my friends Veldora was my friend from before but now somehow me, Velgrynd and Velzard also became friends.
Also because we share a soul corridor I can feel that how Velgrynd and Velzard feel something like regretful when they talk with Veldora.
"Yes you can ask it." Veldora said not thinking about what kind of question I will ask.
And the other two also nodded after thinking a little. And with their confrontation I asked,
"Well I was just wondering why Veldora is scared of the two of you? And why do you both feel nervous and regretful when both of you talk with Veldora?" I asked them since it is bugging me from some time.
