Tensei Shitara Slime Datta

Chapter 250: Rimuru vs Yuuki pt4

A year has passed since my fight with Yuuki.

A lot of things happened after that.

Yep, all things happen.

It's hard to remember everything.

The defeat of Velda by my hand was broadcast to the whole world.

My figure is projected over the skies of each country with Magic Optics which is the application of Observation Magic. [1]

Then, a global crisis was announced on my behalf.

The world was filled with great excitement and the unprecedented chaos gradually stopped.

Needless to say, the one who helped with that was the citizens of Tempest.

By the way, with that, the world finally regained its previous peace.

………

……

…

After I defeated Yuuki, I released Veldora.

When he was released, he left,

「Kuaaaah, I slept well. It's finally my turn, right ?! 」

And say something like that.

Although he had been isolated from the outside world inside 『Imaginary Space』, it could be said that his statement came about because he could not really read the situation.

The price he had to pay for it was very high.

It was inevitable that she was captured by her two older sisters and appropriately punished.

Despite this, his two sisters ―― Velzard and Velgrind—— their interest quickly turned towards Velgaia, the new "True Dragon" on Milim's shoulder.

It could be said that she was saved by it, but because she was ignored by her sister because of it, Veldora actually got what she deserved.

「Grrrr .... Gaia it .....」.

So, it is my duty to comfort Veldora who is jealous of her younger brother (?). Just between you and me, it's very troublesome. [2]

Oh well, with all that said, Veldora is still the same as always.

Our relationship with him spread disorder everywhere and I who dealt with him would somehow continue, even after this.

The thought made me feel happy, but it was kept secret from Veldora.

Why do you ask?

Well, it was obvious that he would be arrogant if I ended up saying that.

Just like how our relationship won't change from now on, a lot goes without saying.

◇◇◇

Speaking of Veldora's sister, Velgrind immediately went on a trip.

He might go look for Rudra's reincarnation.

「Rimuru, do you have a clue or something about it?」

「Ehh !? No-no .. I don't know anything !? 」

He suddenly asked me before he left, but I brushed him off.

I didn't stutter in the slightest because her torturous appearance of Veldora was scary or something.

I was just a little nervous because the pretty lady's face was getting closer to mine.

…… No, that's true.

Actually, I have a suspect in mind.

However, if I were to mention his name here, it would seem like I gave up on Velgrind.

Besides, I feel a bit bad for selling it.

We finally got our peace, so I think it's okay for him to enjoy his happy time a little longer.

…… But, in addition to my consideration, he seems to have been found by Velgrind very soon.

I prayed for him to get lucky while thinking, "You have condolences".

After that, the story of the Hero carrying the sword spoke, and was accompanied by the Dragon and Satan lifting the curtain, but it was a story that had no connection with me.

◇◇◇

Velzard returns with Guy to the northern continent.

It seemed that they were building a demon paradise in the coldest land, where people could not interfere.

Their castle completely collapsed, but Velzard said they recreated it with Guy's abilities.

Based on the experience of the last decisive battle, it seems that Guy has obtained the Ultimate Abyss God Nodens Skill [3] 』by developing the Ultimate『 Skill God Prideful Lucifer 』.

These skills seem to even include Gaia's 『All Creation Embodiment』 and being a truly almighty skill.

It seemed like Guy was trying out an Evolution Skill while trying to process Rudra's rampaging energy.

He seems to be dissatisfied about the last battle because he could not use this skill due to my timely appearance.

He did not try to hide his dissatisfaction, so I directly asked him about it.

「I don't plan to fight with you. My principle is 'don't start a fight that you can't win, ' after all. 」

Those were the words he said back then.

I don't know if that's his true feeling or not, but since I don't want to fight with Guy either, that's just what I was expecting.

At the very least, I feel an indication that if Guy is serious, he might be able to fight against Yuuki on equal or more terms.

I don't think that I will lose to my current circumstances, but I would rather not be hurt because of such pride.

Since there is no reason to fight, so it would be best if we could get along with each other.

Guy was also a bit strange in battle, so just assume he wouldn't challenge me unnecessarily.

Despite saying something like that, I will fight against Guy a few times after this, but let's talk about it next time.

◇◇◇

Heaven was decided to be the territory of Milim.

With 『All the Creation of Embodiment he Gaia, the castle and the Gate of Heaven that were broken in our fight were restored.

Citizens from the former demon lord territory ruled by Milim migrated one after another.

The harp led by Frey and Lycanthropes led by Karion was part of it.

Not only that, but the Heavenly Demons [4] who were following Dino now were also included.

Regarding the Heavenly Demons, is it really okay for me to say that they are a new race born from incarnate Angels that are being transformed?

In the first place, it was said that the Harp and the Tengus were from angels who fell to the demon attribute, so it could not be considered as the only rule.

Even the Dino race was called Fallen [5] as he fell when he was an Angel.

Since Angels in the true sense have no physical body, they can only act in Heaven. Thus, Milim's main force consisted of three races: Heavenly Demons, Harpies and Lycanthropes.

It was decided that there would be a cultural exchange with Heaven, as it was a secret relationship with the Monster Country Tempest, so the trials for the new technology were arranged to be conducted there.

It is clear that the development of science here will be different from my previous world because the essence of magic exists in this world, which can be converted directly into energy.

Research and development will be conducted within the labyrinth as usual, but Heaven will be the first to implement the completed technology.

Later, the technology will be refined based on the data obtained and planned to be utilized in Tempest.

Naturally, things based on physical technology and magical technology would be sent back to the Dwargon Kingdom and the first Magic Dynasty, respectively.

In this way, while upholding the uniqueness of each country, we will leak old technology to Western countries.

It goes without saying that the high technical cost [6] will go into my pocket.

Speaking of Milim, he's the same as always.

Oh well, I also played together with him ―― No, no, I took a breath, so I have no complaints.

Dino also came under the pretext of being Milim's escort, but I have no doubt that his intention is to slack off and eat sweets.

By the way, when Frey appeared when our game was over, Milim and Dino's faces turned pale as if they were in sync.

It seems to me that masters and servants have no motivation to work, but will Heaven be fine?

Well, as long as Frey is worried there, Heaven will somehow succeed.

◇◇◇

Talking about Milim made me remember something. There is one problem …

Recently, it seems that Shuna, Shion, and Milim were in a tight competition with each other as I left.

Souei implicitly reported to me that they were in a holy war (Jihad) [7] regarding who would be my legal wife.

Whatwhat the fuck? I was amazed by this, but it also gave me a headache. [8]

At first, I had no "son", and marriage was unnecessary because I had no age.

How do I say it, I only have a hunch of what caused the fight.

Chloe's.

Chloe was emotionally attached to me and said 「Sensei is (me only) Sensei!」, So I think she is really cute.

"It's not fair! I'm bestie Rimuru, so I'm number one! 」

「You just cheated yourself with it! If you say it like that, then I am the only secretary of Rimuru-sama! 」

「Chloe ―― She seems to be quite a tactician. Even better than I expected .. He is the opponent I should be most wary of, not opponents like Milim-sama and Shion ..

The three people rushed over while I relaxed and had tea with Chloe.

Then, a noisy time began, as usual.

Since this is also gradually becoming an everyday affair, it might be better for me to think of a solution to this soon.

Besides, once I acknowledge a legitimate wife, I feel like they will start volunteering as concubines, right? No, no, let's stop thinking about things like that.

After all, it was something too troublesome for me.

《Fufufu, partner Guru (Legal Wife) is me [9] ――》

I feel like I heard something, but it seems like I better stop thinking about it too deeply.

As usual, I immediately decided to postpone the problem.

◇◇◇

The Monster Country Tempest also changed dramatically.

After the executives led by Benimaru and the hobgoblins under Rigurdo were praised for their deeds, we began the reconstruction of the city.

The city was rebuilt in the blink of an eye by combat engineers under Gerudo.

The rebuilding of the city surrounding the Labyrinth was easily completed by Ramiris.

The adventurers also cooperated and the Imperial army was mobilized.

What about their salaries? That's none of my business.

Myormille-kun came to stick to me and said 「Rimuru-sama ~~~」 with a crying voice, but I warmly comforted him with 「Do your best! You can do it !! 」so he'll be fine.

It seemed that he was being comforted by Rigurdo, who patted him on the shoulder, but more than anything they got along well with each other.

However, thanks to his hard work, Tempest was reborn as an unrivalled super-futuristic city.

I came up with ideas without control and Gerudo made everything real.

New discoveries in his research are used practically and carried out freely.

Some of them were adopted even without waiting for the court to walk in Heaven.

The futuristic renovation has been completed beautifully while leaving tourist destination areas like Onsen District.

To be honest, I suspect they accidentally emptied the area above.

Some Defensive Barriers are actualized by large-scale magic circles.

In-city distribution channels are linked together by Transfer Devices.

As the Transfer magic circle was established in each area, travel within the city became smooth.

The skyscrapers clustered around the city center are positioned so efficiently that sunlight hits the ground below.

Around it, the living space of the citizens was scattered in harmony with the forest.

It was the completion of a fantastic city that even had a calming area.

Since magic is in harmony with science, it is possible to achieve high comfort technology that is centuries ahead of the time of the world.

Naturally, jobs for exchange with other countries also piled up.

The installation of the Transit Gate was urgent, but a railway network needed to be built for use along with the gate.

With that in mind, we decided to use the essence-powered railway as a transportation network to each city.

By bringing together a variety of fine magic techniques, trains can now be operated at speeds exceeding 300 km/h [10] without leaking shock or noise to the surrounding area.

The laying of the railway was done by the Imperial army.

From the Western Countries, the Dwarf Kingdom, the Magic Dynasty Sarion to the territory of the former demon lord, the transportation network with the countries around Tempest also advanced rapidly.

Between the Dwarf Kingdom and the Empire, it was decided to create a railway line and made by the dwarves.

By the way, the territory of the former demon lord was still untouched after the Milim faction left.

Its territory was a rich land and had abundant resources.

Regarding the future management, I think I will decide after consulting with the rulers of each country.

This development will be achieved over ten years as a national project.

No one is against it.

Just by proposing a project on my behalf, all countries are willing to offer their cooperation.

As expected, the title of Great Demon Lord that saved the world was not just for show.

Due to the introduction of new technology, it is predicted that a large number of unemployed will emerge. There would be no reason to call it bad because it would also give people new jobs.

Conversely, for those who have foreseen the future, they may realize that the establishment of this transportation network will provide nothing but benefits.

In the future, those who store information hold all the cards.

I decided not to hold back, and the people who got in the way also left.

Then, the speed at which the implementation of the new technology coming from the Monster Country Tempest would definitely be the card to being ahead of the other countries.

Economic warfare is so difficult that it even makes me think something like an honest and straight war seems very easy to compare.

If everyone did not do their part, the country's standard of living rate would remain low, and that disparity would widen by a rapid ―― That's what Ciel-san's future prospects show.

How I say it, it can be interpreted that I am trying to effectively rule the world with economic and technological power …

No, no, I might just think too much about it.

Although I said that I would not hold back, I did not say anything like 'I want to take over the world!' or something similar.

It would be better if everyone worked hard and made the world a better place from now on.

◇◇◇

I decided to establish two new cities in the Great Jura Forest.

Both are currently under construction of a critically acclaimed construction force.

One was the mining town where the High Orcs lived, and the other was the city on the water where the Lizardmen lived.

High quality ores are produced from mining towns.

The resulting ores will then be transported to downtown Tempest. [11]

The city on the water will be a floating metropolis in the middle of Lake Shisu [12] and is planned to serve as an airship maintenance berth.

There was a workshop in Tempest, but there was no room to store a large number of ships there.

Because Lake Shisu is so vast, we can float as many ships as we want on the lake.

The Prahara was ruled by Rigurdo as Prime Minister.

The mining town will be run by Gerudo and the city on the water will be run by Gabil. Both will be kings and rule each tribe.

I am a bit worried about Gabil, but he has grown since he made peace with Abil.

He is no longer the Gabil of the past, so there will be no problem.

Thus, a system that runs without my involvement will be built smoothly.

◇◇◇

As for the "Otherworlders" found around the world, they are safely under my protection now.

Those who chose to live in this world were sent to the "Academy" in the Kingdom of Ingrassia, and would be educated with the common sense of this world, combat techniques, and other things.

Upon graduation, they will be free, and they will also be given the option to work in important institutions in many countries if they wish to do so.

For those who wish to return, they will join the "Other World Trade Research Department [13]" with Mai taking the initiative in research.

Actually, I can return them to their original world.

However, I find it a bit wrong to send everyone back to his hometown like doing philanthropic work.

Moreover, I can confirm that there are several other worlds so I cannot group them all together with "Otherworlders".

Some of them may be from another world that is different from mine.

I'll give them information. Basically, I want them to work hard to find a method to transfer cross-dimensional―― Navigation Between Dimensions [14].

For that reason, their strong desire to return would be the biggest motivation, stronger than the others.

I think I should send them back secretly if their hard work seems useless after a few years, but …… it was probably unnecessary because I had a hunch that they would reach their goal.

Their efforts finally came to fruition and Inter-Dimensional Navigation was developed.

Then–

With cross-dimensional interaction, a new story begins.

◇◇◇

Ramiris angry.

「Although I plan to do great achievements, I should remain as a child for thousands more years, right? !!」

He complained to me.

Even if he says something like that, my honest impression is "I don't know".

Trainee-san and the others looked full of regret as they were unable to witness Ramiris noble appearance.

But, just for a few years in every few thousand years? It was strange that he could only take his adult form for such a short time.

He said that he was forcibly woken up this time, so he needed to start all over again or something like that.

「Oh well, isn't this good? A child can play freely and you don't want to be assigned with unpleasant works like Milim, right? 」

「Yeah, I think so. My favorite research turned into my job and this place is the best so .... 」.

"okay? From the beginning, you didn't have anything you wanted to do after becoming an adult, right? 」

「Hmm, now you mention it ....」

Oh well, there was such a conversation, but after that, she returned to her cheerful self.

It seems that Ramiris just wanted to show me his adult form, so his anger disappeared quickly.

As for the labyrinth, its difficulty had risen so high that, without a doubt, it was impossible for humans to catch it.

It would be difficult for them even if they were to arm themselves with advanced combat weapons such as Mobile Weapons [15] or Magitek Weapons [16].

Downstairs is starting to become a testing ground for new weapons.

So, I decided to issue a passport to the Elf City for those who made it through the 50th floor.

Otherwise, the high class calming area would become completely useless.

We and royalty from other countries use the city as a VIP facility, but it would feel secluded if the city was only used for it.

Regardless, the labyrinth group led by Ramiris and Zegion would increase their strength even more from now on.

………

……

…

Oh well, it was a very busy year.

Looking back, it was a very meaningful time.

However, as things here gradually calmed down, I guess I will go to deal with one of my regrets.

◇◇◇

The sky scanners lined up in succession.

The surroundings were filled with screams and screams.

The sound of sirens coming from the police car can be heard from a distance.

That nostalgic sight is what makes me feel dizzy.

「Senpai, Senpai !? Please wait there, Senpai & 1 !! 」

A young man cried and shouted at the good man who had fainted after being stabbed in the arm with a woman staring at them sadly.

They are Tamura and Sawatari-san.

These guys, they really haven't changed ―― oh well, they haven't changed unsurprisingly.

I approached Tamura and patted her on the shoulder.

「Move a minute, Tamura」

「!? Who are you……? How do you know my name―― 」

「Do not sweat. You become a meticulous man as always. 」

She turned to complain to me, but she fell silent because my face was too pretty. Ok?

I think “Sawatari-san will be angry, you know.”, But I refrained from saying that.

I pushed Tamura aside and held the pseudo-core I took from my pocket over the corpse of the good man.

All right then…

Since the corpse and the pseudo-core fused smoothly, all that was left to do was transfer 『Double Parallel Existence [17]』 into it and I was done.

Oh I forgot.

The human body hurts so I have to heal it properly.

With that thought, I took out a healing potion from my pocket and poured its contents into the corpse.

I saw the wound heal instantly and was convinced that the effect of the herb worked even on this side.

If the potion does not cure the corpse, I think it is a bit troublesome because I have to cure the corpse by swallowing it first.

The fact that the healing potion worked saved me a lot.

Preparation is complete with this.

I focused my consciousness and transferred 『Multiple Parallel Existence』 to the pseudo-core.

《Succeed. It seems that the skill can be activated without problems even on this side.》

Hmmm, thank goodness.

It seems I have managed to transfer my split consciousness to a good man ―― in other words, my body in my original world.

In that case, let's leave this place immediately before I ―― Mikami Satoru ―― wake up.

「Who are you ...」

「Ah, Tamura. From now on, respect your Senpai properly and don't think about trying to show off, okay? Also, I will take care of the PC myself so the request is canceled! 」

「Ehh !?」

I smiled at Tamura whose expression was mixed with confusion and shock, then I left the place.

There's no need for me to say more than that.

My ―― Mikami Satoru ―― will explain the rest to him.

………

……

…

I've woken up

On a hospital bed in my nostalgic world.

In the body of a very familiar man who has been with me for 37 years.

I gently confirm the existence of my "son" who is in good health.

'Thankfully!' I think so from the bottom of my heart.

However, I was a bit worried about whether I could still use it or not.

"Eh, aren't you going to use it?" , I'm going to beat you to death !!

To make sure it can be used at any time, that is proper manners.

After all, preparation is important.

Oh well, put that aside.

The things that happened up until now were not dreams, right?

“I saw a dream because of a surprise pierced” or something like that, please release me from “All it was just a dream” ended [18] ……

If every difficulty I felt was just daydreaming, I could not laugh even if I wanted to.

However, seeing how peaceful the dream was, I might actually believe that if I was told that it was a dream and not a joke.

「Ah, Senpai! You awake?"

「..... Tamura, is that you? Is this a hospital? 」

"Yes. The police came until some time ago, but it seems they have returned after the doctor told them that you should rest just in case. 」

"Police……? Why……"

Calm Please calm down. Senpai, do you remember that you were almost stabbed by a Spicy [19]? The police came to ask for eyewitness testimony about Slasher. 」

「Oh, so ... Then, I really wasn't stabbed?」

Huh huh? Is it all just a dream?

If I just passed out without being stabbed, the possibility that everything was really daydreaming is ――

「――Actually, you know, I don't think you'd believe me, but ..... a mysterious woman ―― too, but, she is a spectacular and beautiful woman who can easily beat any model or celebrity ―― has brought Senpai back to life. Well, I guess it can't help even if you laugh and say 'What are you talking about' to me, but what I say is true! As proof, please look at it! 」

Tamura answered my question.

Looking at what he was pointing at, I saw my suit hanging on the wall with a small tear on his back and dyed in a dark blood red color around him.

It seems that I have had enough blood ..

So that means, as I expected, everything is not a dream and I can understand that I was bullied by my naughty ―― Rimuru.

it was ―― although I said it, she is also me ―― She went and made me even be the target of her jokes ……

「I know that, unbelievable, right?」

「No, I trust you, Tamura. Also, it seems the police are doing a stupid job. Anyway–"

「Eh?」

「No, not nothing.」

He wouldn't believe me even if I said it.

I can forgive the culprit who killed me, but Diablo can't.

At this time, the culprit had to regret that he was even born because of Diablo's Endless Pains [20].

Since it was useless even if I said it, I decided to avoid that question with a smile.

「By the way, Tamura ―― Would you believe me If I told you that I went to another world after I died?」

Tamura put on a confused expression for a moment because of my whisper.

He might think of something like, "What are you talking about, Senpai?"

"I guess that's a normal reaction." So I was thinking, but—

「I'll trust you, Senpai. I have seen something unbelievable and I feel that woman is like Senpai. Now that I think about it, “That person is Senpai, right?” Or things like that. I've even thought of silly things like that, you know. 」

"I saw. Then, I can talk about it with you, but would you like to hear it? 」

I asked her with a slight smile and Tamura replied while also smiling.

"Yes please."

So is the answer.

I'm seeing……

Well then, let's talk about it.
