He decided to be as rude to her as she was to him "Why would I tell you?" It must be a by-product of my brothers energy."īy-product…? What the hell?! "I'm not some energy by-product!" He protested. His companion, who he had just addressed, looked surprised "To be honest, I haven't either. He laughed "Who would have though? You really are named! This is the first time I see a talking slime. He assessed that he was named with a glance? Impressive! According to Veldora, monsters usually had no names so asking one about their name wasn't normal etiquette. "You radiate with the Storm Dragon's power." The man noted "What is your name?" Besides, get Veldora on their side? Hello? He was sealed! The only ones remaining were the royal and the miss at his side. "Right away." Glaring at Rimuru one last time, he set him down and left with his forces. "Do that." The man, a king?, looked around "Just get Veldora on our side. The man and the soldiers bowed "Your majesty! My apologies, I was curious about this being and lost sight of our goal. "Lieutenant." A stern voice called out, making the humans present jump a bit "Don't you have something better to do? We can't have Veldora beat us again." "Oh yeah?" Rimuru mocked "Seems like you're too dumb to comprehend the reality before you!" A True Dragons power can enable monsters to spawn. "There's no way a slime can be as poweful as you, even if it was born from the True Dragons power!" The one holding him shook his head at the two "Just tell us what you are." 'So they can deal with assholes like you for him!' Rimuru had a tick-mark on his body "Why should I answer that?" The soldiers burst out laughing "Why would the Storm Dragon make friends?" What… Veldora's? "No, we're just friends." The one who caught him brought him up to his face "What are you really? Don't try to deceive us! Are you one of the dragons' underlings?" "So it really did talk…" One soldier muttered. "Easy!" He shouted "What do you even want from me?!" Don't blame him, he couldn't just slice humans up! Pointing weapons in his harmless visage as a result. Was this volume alright? Did they hear that? "H-hi.?" He tried out his newly acquired voice. So why was he encircled? They wore some kind of uniform, so a military force? Now this made even less sense! Why was military present in the first place? And just why were they cornering him?! But from the description he got it was highly unlikely. Then again, maybe it changed in the last 200 years he'd been sealed away. Didn't Veldora say Slimes weren't seen as a threat?! What was this? First he was just chatting with Veldora, then he left the cave and now he was surrounded by soldiers.
