Slime Who Turned into a Demon King
The Volome 7 Part 3

In the land of eternal night, in the burial chamber unknown to the world, the,

encased in an ice chest, there was a beautiful, dark-haired, naked girl.

The figure in front of him, was also naked, as he hugged the coffin with a smile

it was scary on his enchanted face. His skin, as pale as the sun white-hot, is,

it burned a red color as he sighed in satisfaction.

Ah... So lovely... Ah...

Seeing this girl in the coffin, and showering her with love, was a pleasure

the secret of this charming silver-haired figure, his eyes were red and blue

flickering as they let out an unpleasant light. That thing

bring her traditional beauty, elevate it to a higher level.

But what surprised the observers the most were the two protruding white canine teeth

coming out of both sides of her lips. Every time he opened his lips, his tongue

his bloody and pale white fangs will date.

This was the demon lord Luminus Valentine, the Nightmare Queen and the ruler of the night.

Every time he touched this coffin, it left a burn scar on his skin

that's beautiful. It was an ark, a pure block of sacred power, and therefore destructive

Luminal. As a vampire demon lord, this entire coffin was like poison to him. But he

not letting it bother him. Even the bruise itself is

bliss.

Even a demon lord with a power like Luminus was incapable

breaking the coffin. So instead of her lovingly caressing him, hope

on the day where he was finally able to release the girl who was asleep in it...

One of his trusted associates made contact with him.

“I'm sorry for interrupting your pleasure, but there's something you want

I told you.”

It was Louis, whom he asked to be Holy Emperor Lubelius. Her voice

bother him, but he put up with it. It was rare for him to talk like

this, and he could easily imagine it as an emergency.

“Oh. Louis? Did something happen?”

“Hinata has moved to defeat Rimuru, the root of all this evil.

I secretly let him do it, but things seem to

getting complicated. ”

“...How do you mean?”

Louis gave him the truth, as revealed by his investigation

by oneself.

“Ah... In that case, there is no time to relax.”

With a sigh of fatigue, Luminus released himself from the coffin,

he left the funeral room and called a servant.

“Gunther!”

“Yes, my lady?”

Gunther is an old vampire who serves Luminus, a butler

who joined him at Walpurgis. Now he's emerged from the darkness, wrong

one of the Three Servants was under his control and was almost at his level of strength.

Louis was an important person on the throne of the emperor, Gunther in the city of Nightgarden, and

the late Roy as a demon lord who stood as a deterrent against

propaganda outside. The three were also Luminous bodyguards; luminus was currently in the room

the cemetery is located deep inside Nightgarden, and Gunther is guarding the

nearby.

With a measured hand, Gunther helped Luminus with his clothes. Fact

that she would rather the ceremony of wearing her clothes manually than

some instant magical transformations are indicators that tell the taste

the exaggerated forms.

“Honestly,” Gunther gripped Louis when he helped him change,

“challenging him with trivial nonsense..”.

“I'm sorry,” replied Louis. “But if we let things go longer, we

risk losing your beloved Hinata too, I worry.”

“Such silly worries! Although, if it was the demon lord Rimuru who

fight with the sword, caution will definitely be fine.”.

“I'm coming to you two now because I don't want them to fight.

If Hinata is killed, what will Luminous...?”.

“Louis,” Luminous reluctantly cut, “that's enough from you. You too, you,

Gunthers. One appearance from me is all this need, isn't it? Then we can

eliminating source.”

The three Servants hate him when one of them snaps at the

another, which is a source of frustration for Luminus. Louis knows that, that's why

he's postponing for Gunther at this time.

“Yes, my lady.”

“I'm sorry..”

They both lowered their heads gently. Luminous grunting.

“With Roy gone, I have to change your duties. But now, I don't have

time for that. You two, follow me. ”

He began to walk, with all his majesty. Two miraculous births ready

followed him.

“Yes, my lady.”

“Allow me, miss.”

Then Luminous paused for a moment, turning back to the coffin he loved.

Wait for me, okay...?

He then whispered the name of the precious girl inside, before gently

stroked the door of the room and closed it behind him.

Soundless, covered by the huge magic barrier belonging to Luminous, that room

sneaking into the real darkness.

Damrada the Gold, one of the leaders of Cerberus' secret society, finally

successfully returned to Farmus from his clandestine encounter with the Five Elders. Him

now it's in Migam, out of town, and given how well he knows the Earl

The nidol of the money-hungry Migam, he did not forget to calm him down with a gift

enough to earn his trust.

This time, too, was just a small bribe he needed to allow his prote

it was in Migam. Edmaris, too, was there now in an undisclosed location, and

Damrada knew this domain would be the eye of the storm soon. Edward, the new king, the,

has dragged an army of twenty thousand towards the border of this domain— Damrada

also know that.

The spread that the hero Yohm guarded the old king, Edmaris, was quite safe

to convince Edward that the two conspired against him.

However, the truce was unilaterally signed by Edmaris.

No need, Edward has made it very clear, for a new government

honoured him. But as Edward told his men, he

have attempted to argue sincerely with them, just to

he asked Edmaris and Johm to raid the royal treasury and steal their money.

For the inhabitants of the town of Farmus, far from the border, a hero who is not

being able to do anything but battle was not a worthy thing to do

cherished. Being very safe in their cities, makes them underestimate

the need for a strong defense. Some people even question

it is necessary to keep the likes of Johm and his army from using money

dimeh in public. It's funny how many people fail to realize that

safety must be paid a lot.

In the midst of this, an announcement is made that the hero Johm and the old king, Edmaris, are,

the embezzlement of reparations funds enraged the upper class Farmus. More and more

from those who voluntarily provide their support for

Edward; no one doubts his moral superiority on this question. And

with the support that pushed him, Edward had deployed his troops.

If the current trend continues, it won't be long before Yohm and Edmaris

arrested on false charges and executed. They will not accept

that, of course, means the war is already visible on the horizon — just like

Damrada put it together.

Yohm only had about five thousand soldiers here in Migam, but they had

taking reinforcements for the past three days.

Hm... So Rimuru hasn't left Yohm yet. How naive she is. Now Hinata

the Enlightened One has a better chance of winning than

preceding. Maybe it's time to move...

This, too, is in the realm of Damrada's imagination. At the fullest level

personally, she would love it if Hinata could be taken from the picture to

forever. Looks like he knew he had been taken advantage of by his lie, so that

it was best to get rid of it before he got in the way. Damrada doubts him

will never forgive him, and he needs to remember it during his operation in

Western Countries.

However, for now, he had to leave Hinata in the hands of the Five Elders.

Any direct intervention with it would be too dangerous.

Alright Not that this mission will end in failure...

The leader Cerberus ordered him to trigger a war in the region. No

there's more. As far as Damrada is concerned, his job is done, so that's a bet

it was better to retreat before Hinata returned. But there is only a little

unfinished business. Damrada doesn't care who wins between heroes

and a new king, but if he wants to benefit in the future, he has

a promise with the Five Elders to be fulfilled. The devil must be killed.

However, this is where the plan starts to go awry. Earl Nidol Migam has told us

Damrada at internal meetings held in his territory, and judging from

that report, this demon was also aiming to end the battle quickly.

What does this mean to him? That means that the new king and the devil want two things

it was completely different for Farmus. Edward had no hostile intentions

against Rimuru. The monster army clearly defeated him, and it was impossible

Farmus can beat Tempest alone. But despite that, Rimuru still

sending reinforcements to the hero Yohm. It showed Damrada

that he was not afraid of war, had it come to that. All talk

about the 'cause' being turned on when the demon lord sided with Edmaris. She has been

changed his mind, apparently.

This gave Damrada some attention. In the middle of an investigation when he was looking for a demon, he

come to know that Razen is a magic-born person now

serving the demon Damrada was trying to kill, not Edmaris. Which means…

...Was it the devil who defeated Razen, not Rimuru himself? This isn't

Johnny-comelately the devil is given physical form in this world, then.

Perhaps an older demon has been revived...

The thought made him grimace. There is not enough knowledge to work with

the same; even the leader Cerberus did not give any information about the devil

that's. This enemy, in his opinion, should be considered at least as an early Arch Demon-like

modern, maybe older. The strength of this type of demon was very dependent on age

they are, and while the 'modern' is one thing, the early-modern Arch Demon —

two or three hundred years old — is a disaster class threat. One of

'medieval', whose age was almost reaching a millennium, could be quite powerful

completely different from some low-level demons evolved. If the Arch Demon

as it exists in this world, it is devastating news, a threat to the Ummah

human as a continuing concern.

It should be noted that humans only managed to summon demons that were at the level

medieval and after. That's as far as the record goes, and it goes

reason, for anything more powerful than that will mean the end of the souls of the

caller. Their souls will soon be consumed. That's why the latest research

Eastern Empire regularly calls for restrictions on demon summoning —

although it takes a hero class summoner to create a Demon Arch

make their offer from the beginning.

“Then the magic-born Razen?” Damrada mutters.

Yes, the name Razen was widely known throughout the Empire. Power like his almost

equivalent when compared to the medieval demons. If there's a demon out there

who can beat people like him...

Plus, the Five Elders seemed to be quite blatantly planning something

with each other. It slightly aroused his curiosity, but his instincts

saying that this is a better wasp nest is not a gang. Yang

best to make a good escape, he thought, before I got caught up in the thing

others.

“There's something, Sir Damrada?” His servant said, responding to the words that he

say it to himself.

Damrada weakly smiled back. “Heh-heh-heh... It's too hot for

touched. There's no more of this. We've got a word for a little bit of lying right now, and

I consider it wise to heed that advice.”

“Sorry..?”

“We're backing out. Leave two or more observers and command everyone

to leave this country.”

“Ya sir. What about you, Sir Damrada?”

“I will send my formal greetings to King Edward, then visit

Tempest.”

“But I think you are advised to lie a little..?”.

“Hmm? Uh-heh-heh... Oh, I'll do it. For now, I will stop

maneuver behind the scenes, for the sake of other advances. There is no law that forbids

a decent merchant asked for an audience with demon lord Rimuru, to

improving his business.”

“I understand. Exceptionally well. What to do with six

The contractor we brought from our homeland? ”

“We will take them to the new king. It would be a nice souvenir

to him. ”

“So, everything will be pushed over King Edward's shoulder, then?”

“If you want to say it harshly, yes. It would be a good thing for

Edward, while I fulfill my promise to the Five Elders.”

This contractor was an organization of the Eastern Empire that served a reasonable purpose

kira is the same as the Western United Nations. They are a group that

assigned to work for specialist professions, including working demon hunters

all the time chasing demons in the world. Only the best and most monster fighters

experienced to be granted a license for this profession, and Damrada has

paid a generous sum to bring in six of these demon hunters

with her. He wanted to use it as an advertisement

Contractors in general, but now he feels that everything

too dangerous for them.

“But do we really have to be this much vigilant? We're not completely

return our investment..”

“We will see it, we will see it. I may think too much about it, though,

I like to trust my instincts. I'm not stupid enough to lose either

my life when I should have cut my losses.”

“Ah. Yes, my apology for doubting you. Then I'll start

prepare ourselves to retreat.”

“Good. So I will prepare another gift for the new king.”

The waiter left the room. Preparation went quickly after that, and before far away

longer, Damrada has put Migam behind him. He was right to

doing that, because if he daydreams further, he might have a demon who

angry people who tried to kill him.

Edward, newly crowned king of Farmus, was beside himself

with excitement.

The nobles all over the country fell upon themselves to promise

their support to him, expanding and strengthening his army. That

it was surprising to see the hero Yohm siding with Edmaris, his older brother, and his brother,

and when Rimuru sided with Yohm, he was afraid that his entire plan would fail.

But heaven did not leave him.

With Archbishop Reyhiem dead, the wheels began to spin. Hinata is leaving

to kill Rimuru, he has been informed, with the Crusader army in

behind him. Even better, the heroes of the Holy Empire Lubelius — Three

Battlesages, the second royal officer after Hinata in his power — has been

offering their support to Edward's cause, deploying the Temple Knights

for that effort. The enemy-god label has not yet been officially announced, but

given this spread, it must have been only a matter of time.

The Temple Knights are assigned to defeat the demon that killed Reyhiem, but

that's just the right reason. In Edward's mind, they were actually aiming

to fight against demon lord Rimuru, armed with

a great power which is essentially a combined army of the Nations

Wests. That is why he gave them a safe way through his land, as well as

the right to engage in any military activity they deem appropriate.

He had no intention of fighting with Rimuru, but in such a situation,

that doesn't matter. There was no way Hinata would lose to the demon lord, and with

a force of this magnitude, he reasoned, defeating the Tempest army was not at all

impossible. Veldora remains a concern, but with a fussy dragon,

the combined forces of the Western Nations should be able to seal it once again.

Now he needs a fair reason to link all these efforts

together, and it's taken care of. A powerful merchant from the East had

visiting him, brought a letter from Earl Nidol of Migam. That is a request

help, and it instantly solved all of Edward's problems. It doesn't take time

it was long before he reached a conclusion.

With reinforcements flowing through the border from all sides, perhaps

it is better to use the rescue of Migam as an excuse to deploy

my army.

Full war was not in his plans, but deployed his troops outside

the city walls should prove enough of a deterrent. There is no one in

around Edward who warned him otherwise — which he would later regret

— when he sends the command.

In Glenda's eyes, the plan had gotten very bad, but such things were frequent

it happened on the battlefield. He just has to adjust his tactics, make everything

things are going better, and he'll be fine. Seeing it like that, though,

things that didn't seem so bad to him. A large number of countries are interested

with their movements, and the real army of journalists is here to

saw action.

Everything was arranged as he wanted. Rimuru is not focusing

exclusive on Hinata is an unwanted surprise, but when Glenda

looking at him, it only meant that he spread his strength too wide to

own goodness. That's not a problem.

Damrada had fled the country, but he had left the expert team

anti-devil to King Edward as a symbol of goodwill, each in armour

complete as well as battle experts and A rank or better. He thinks they can

trusted to do their job.

There is no reason not to sacrifice them, if necessary, Glenda thought while

then. No matter how it turned out, he optimistically believed that the demon would

out of her hair. The atmosphere did not last long.

Heh-heh-heh-heh-heh…

Diablo, the demon in question, let out an evil laugh as he

spreading its bat-like wings, it looked like a sign of the apocalypse

as he observed the ground below. He was looking for a traitor

defeating him, caused embarrassment and felt shame in front of Rimuru

the one he loved, and he wasn't in a forgiving mood.

Not once in his life has he ever felt anything like

a fear. But the thought that he was relieved of his duties made him

feeling trembling. Imagining Rimuru looking at him and saying “Alright, you

can go now” make his spine shiver. The terror that rips

the shreds.

Now Diablo must avenge those responsible for feelings

that's. He pondered what he was doing after he tracked them down. It makes

the smile is wider.

Then he found Edward, the new king, behind the army. There is with him

a few others were standing out among the crowd with strength,

at least somewhat — is enough so they can at least face to face with

Diablo. Part of the Ten Saints, perhaps?

Rimuru ordered him not to kill anyone not involved. If

they are involved, it doesn't apply — at least that's how Diablo and Hakuro are, he said,

his supervisor, interpreting the letter. Any army that doesn't try to survive

it will be released, of course, but if they try to fight it, it is

another problem — especially if they decide to start that hostility

by oneself. Then, there is no need for mercy.

Resisting the desire to welcome this new king simultaneously, Diablo

sending Mind Communications, reporting his findings to Hakuro.

(Sir Hakuro, I have found one that stands out among them heading to the

your Direction. He should have kept Sir Ranga busy, if it was as I imagined.)

(Hm. Roger that. Would it be better not to kill him?)

(Yes. I believe he has a connection with Lubelius, the origin of the rumor

defied me. Capturing him alive would make him a pawn

useful in our negotiations.)

(All right. I'll tell Sir Ranga.)

(Also... This target is leading about five thousand troops. According to the Free Guild ranking,

this includes some fighters who are at least A rank)

(Hm. Perfect, then. Let's point Gobta and Gabil at them.)

(Yes, good idea. I'm sure this is a fight for them so no

you can lose, but.).

Bersambum.......
