Tensei Shitara Slime Datta

Chapter 291: Fun

Marsha smiled happily.

And when we did that, the students got up one by one and got out.

Even the instructors who were in critical condition came out and thought it was strange that their wounds had healed but they all understood once they saw me.

I will praise them that they did not say anything unnecessary.

“This will be done soon. Can you prepare a bathtub in the meantime? "

When I asked about Marsha, she replied 'understand!' and happily nodded before going to the tent to take a bath.

It seemed like she was shocked because of the incident last night but now that she saw good food and had something she could do, she had already regained her determination.

In times like these, it's good to do something to change gears.

First, we have food.

And then, we get into the bathtub to clear all the dirt from the battle.

There might be people who bathed in the blood of others as well so it would be good for them to be clean.

And after that -

When Marsha left, William came up to me and saw me alone.

"Is now the right time, Rimuru-sama?"

He came to speak as a representative.

I nodded and decided to plan what to do from now on.

"Has all the wounded healed?"

"Yes . With the help of the healing potion you gave us, everyone has recovered. ”

"That's great . I think you understand but— ”

"Of course, I told them this is a healing potion that Pyuri's health doctor prepared. ”

"Yes that's good . ”

"–However, how exactly are we, still alive?"

"That's because Moss was there. ”

To introduce him to the wise man William, I called Moss.

[It's nice to meet you . I am an adjutant of Testarossa-sama, who is of the same rank and is a co-worker of Diablo, who is a trusted retainer of Rimuru-sama. I'm called Moss. Nice to meet you–]

Little Moss showed hypocritical courtesy when he introduced himself to William.

But William was not offended by it, he said,

“A-ah, yes, same here. I thank you for saving us. ”

Although Moss was used as a handyman, his position at Tempest was indeed high. I guess he will become a god-like existence even for the elders of the academy.

Moreover, even though Moss looks like this, even the arch ghosts don't match him.

It is not strange for a wise man William's expression to be rigid to see creatures that can destroy great nations easily.

"Then, will this 'Human Liberation Alliance' thing be taken care of by Moss-sama?"

William asked me, calming down.

“No, I won't do that. ”

"Why is that? I fully assume that anyone who opposes you will be annihilated … "

It's really annoying to see how my pictures are passed on like this.

I mean, of course, I will exterminate those who are obviously enemies but I will not kill everyone like the barbarians just because their position is against mine …

“Now listen here, 'enemies' can mean a lot of different things, okay? I will destroy them if they destroy the city or kill people but the Human Liberation Alliance is different, right? I will just fight them in their own ring and have the defeat etch into their minds and bodies so they never think of opposing me again. ”

Fine .

First of all, it is difficult to charge anyone at this time.

What the Human Liberation Alliance did was persuade the students and instructors to agree to their thoughts — which was to free themselves from me, the rule of the demon lord.

Even if money is involved in this, it will be difficult to judge it as a crime.

It is clear that they are against me but they are innocent in terms of the law.

That's the hard part.

It is true that I hold absolute authority but even then I will not change the law freely.

I can suggest certain laws in parliament but a majority vote can only make that happen. Well, even then, most of my laws would pass but I never actually filed laws.

I have decided not to touch politics since the time I started leading the Goblin.

All I have to do is supervise management after fixing a set of rules.

I could have easily rejected the absurd legal advice by the lower legislative council and even if they passed, I could have turned it down later. In fact I had to go through proper procedures to establish new laws.

I have no plans to try to do something as absurd as 'dead with him!' and even if I did, it wouldn't pass.

This time too, I upheld those values.

Even the actions carried out on this island — I can condemn them in terms of humanity but there is no concise law.

They had hidden their identities until the instructor or student who could cause trouble was defeated.

But saying it was a crime is hard.

There is no doubt that they left the others to die but it cannot be said to be a crime just because they did not save them.

They may be planning on leaving students or teachers unwilling to cooperate on the island and making monsters deal with them — but that cannot yet be accused of being a crime.

After all, they cannot be billed unless they directly have a hand in it.

They have not committed a clear crime at this time and the actions they assume will be taken when leaving the island are just assumptions.

It sucks but since I don't have any charges that I can make against them, I haven't been able to do anything about it.

"If so, what are you planning to do?"

“Simple, William-kun. The students who were angry at Magnus for treason would try to take revenge. It was also by legal and formal means — by duel. ”

“–Don't say, Julius and Karma? However, with the difference in skills between them … "

“There should be no problem. We still have 3 days. After they finish eating, I plan to become a full coach on them. ”

"O-oh .. I don't know what to say …"

“I'll make you cooperate too. And then we'll win and come back with a win. They may be planning on leaving anyone who is not in line with their ideals on the island. However, if we can escape this island with everyone alive, we will win. Okay?"
