Chapter 171 - 190~199

The Assassin of the Western Holy Church!

Tear!

With a stream of blood flying, Lazen's arm fell off the skeleton.

At this moment, he suddenly had a sense of déjà vu, as if this scene had happened once before.

The next second, his expression suddenly became shocked.

He already knew who the person in front of him was!

Lazan swept his hands, and a stream of magic energy rushed onto the elf, then dissipated the surface disguise.

The "mimicry" dissipated, and the first thing that changed was the bright golden short hair, turning into a pure silver-white. The originally beautiful face slowly turned into a face that was even more impressive than before.

The clothes gradually turned into a long white robe, which was blown up by the wind and made rustling sounds.

"Ah! She's actually a man!"

The first thing that the nobles on the side noticed was not that the man in front of them had killed their own king, but something even stranger. Some nobles even showed an expression of "this is not bad".

"Okay, now I can fall in love with humans."

The noble girl covered her mouth. She was originally captured by the elf, but when she saw the elf take off her disguise, she suddenly found that she was fine again.

"Su! Suwey!"

Only Larzen understood at this moment that the man in front of him was the one he summoned.

He never expected that Suwey would appear here and kill the king of Farmus Kingdom!

But the next moment, he noticed what Suwey was wearing.

"Western Holy Church..."

As the chief magician, Lazan wanted to stop Suwey the moment he realized his plan. Once the words of the assassin of the Western Holy Church were spread, it would become extremely troublesome!

But Suwey's knife did not give Lazan a chance to speak. The moment he was about to speak, Suwey's knife had already pierced his neck.

Lazan only had time to use the transfer magic, and the whole person disappeared in an instant.

Although Suwey's knife missed, he was not depressed at all, and even smiled as if his evil plan had succeeded.

And at the moment when Lazan disappeared, he jumped high and disappeared on the spot as well.

On the other side, Lazan, who had arrived at the hiding place, breathed a sigh of relief.

He held the broken arm in his hand, and the healing magic unfolded instantly. Soon, the arm was connected to the bone.

Lazen breathed a sigh of relief and focused his attention on the things around him.

This is where his treasures are hidden. Those jewels that don't look valuable are actually the heirlooms passed down from successive kings. Lazan collected them in his hands, which symbolized that he wanted to control the dignity of all the kings of the Farmus Kingdom in his own hands.

The locked jewels are a symbol of his dignity.

"So Larzen will definitely return to the underground cell, and that's when the thing in your hand will come into play!"

This is what Suwey said to Tachibana Kyoya, so when he saw Lazan's arm being cut off and the whole person being moved away at the scene, he pressed the detonator in his hand.

Along with the sound of "bang" from Tachibana Kyoya's mouth, a violent explosion broke out in the underground cell not far away, and the entire ground felt the vibration from the soles of the feet in an instant.

Everyone in the city fell to the ground, staring blankly at the shaking houses around them.

The explosion lasted only a moment, then died down, and everything around returned to calm.

Only Lazan's house was different. The originally built three-story enclosed house collapsed completely. And not only here, the underground also instantly turned into a sunken ruin.

What Suwey gave to Tachibana Kyoya was something beyond this era, called dynamite.

 

Just one step away!

At that moment, Lazan realized who the person was, and at that moment, he realized what had happened.

"Kyouya!!!"

He discovered that the only person who could murder him here was Tachibana Kyoya!

As there were many things going on today and there were many people around, he did not check Kyoya Tachibana's thoughts.

Lazan also realized that Suwey had already taken away the elves imprisoned underground, and then disguised himself as an elf, suddenly took action during the selection of concubines, killed King Edmalis, and put all the blame on the Western Holy Church.

Then he arranged for Kyoya Tachibana to attack him, catching him off guard!

In the end, he ended up like this!

And no one knows what Suwey said to Tachibana Kyoya that made him attack him so crazily at this moment.

But Larzen was not panicked at all. Although he was shocked, he quickly regained consciousness.

He still has an ace in his hand, which is "explosion". At this moment, this card that has been buried for a long time can come in handy!

"Go to hell!"

Larzen roared and used the method he used to kill Taguchi Shogo and Mizutani Nozomi again. However, the moment he activated the magic, he found that Tachibana Kyoya's roar did not stop, and the long sword in his hand pierced Larzen's abdomen the next moment.

Sizzle!

Like a torn piece of paper, Lazan's lower abdomen burst into a gorgeous flower of blood.

Because his eyes have not been fully repaired, he can't see the situation in front of him clearly, but through this ability, Lazan can see the surrounding situation clearly and understand his current situation.

He was missing an arm and a leg, and because of the head-on impact, large areas of his skin were covered with scars.

He had never suffered such suffering before. It would have been fine if he couldn't see it before, but now that he saw it, his anger and pain mixed together, making him unable to help but howl like a trapped beast.

Lazan suddenly let out a shrill roar, like a dying beast. He had now fallen into madness, and unbridled murderous intent and anger burst out from his ferocious expression.

He suddenly stretched out his hand, pressed down hard on the hilt of Tachibana Kyoya's sword, raised his head and shouted angrily at Tachibana Kyoya.

"You thought you could get away! You thought you could kill me!?"

"Go to hell, you stinky old man!"

After being hit in the nose by Lazen, the bright red blood fell down. After being shocked and angry, Tachibana Kyoya, who became more ferocious, also responded with a shout, and then raised the long sword in his hand and slashed at Lazen's neck.

His sword was drawn very quickly, so he had to use his strength twice to remove Lazen's head from his neck. However, during this process, Lazen's roar was like thunder until it stopped abruptly.

As he finished speaking, his body, like an inflated balloon, suddenly grew to the size of a small building in just a few seconds.

Tachibana Kyoya, who was trapped in it, only had time to jump up before he heard a hair-raising sound coming from under his feet!

boom!!!

The dead Lazen did not give Tachibana Kyoya any chance to escape. He exploded without any delay. It was a violence more powerful than the dynamite underground. Combined with magical flames and lightning, dense golden thunder spread everywhere without warning.

"Ahhhhh! Razan!!!"

At the end of his life, Kyoya Tachibana only had time to make such a sound before he disappeared in the violent explosion, and was shattered to pieces!

From then on, the three people from the other world summoned by Lazen all died at Lazen's hands!

Standing high in the sky, Suwey watched the deadly fight below with cold eyes. The deal between him and Kyoya Tachibana had ended long ago. Originally, he should have been the one to get rid of Larzan at this time, but Kyoya Tachibana was eager for revenge and actually took the initiative to attack.

But he forgot one thing, that is, how could a timid and cautious person like Lazan not leave a way out for himself?

So Suwey pushed his palm towards the ground, and suddenly it exploded. The dark storm shattered the surrounding clouds, and then all the magic elements that exploded on the ground were swept away.

"Is that really the case?"

 

Conditions!

Suwey landed on the ground and looked at the young-looking man in front of him with interest.

If Suwey didn't know that there was an old soul hidden in this body, he would never have thought that this person would be Lazan.

"I didn't expect you to still have the energy to make conditions."

Lazan's expression was too calm, so Suwey was very curious about what he wanted to say.

But he couldn't show that he wanted to know in front of Lazan, so Suwey ignored Lazan's conditions.

"When a person's life is at stake, all conditions for survival are held tightly in the palm of your hand."

Larzan didn't care about Suwey's attitude. He was not 100% sure that when he stated these conditions, Suwey would let him go.

Korazan had to use this condition in exchange for his own survival.

"You are not qualified to exchange terms with me now. You can only tell me the secret and let me confirm it."

Of course Suwey would not let Lazan go. This guy was a trouble. He coveted his body. In addition, his knowledge, if he was not killed, sooner or later he would grow into a hidden danger to the Demon Kingdom again.

Lazan looked at Suwey deeply, his eyes moved around the long sword on Suwey's waist, and finally he was silent for a moment, then slowly told him his secret.

"Do you know that there are a large number of members of the Western Holy Church in the Kingdom of Farmus recently? They are the owners of the clothes you are wearing."

Lazan carefully considered his words and began to explain to Suwey the cause of the incident.

"Of course I know. I stole this from these people."

"This is a country built on commerce. The people here don't know how to farm, lack technology, and even their magic isn't considered high-class. In every aspect, this country can only be described as mediocre. That's why successive kings have chosen to develop commerce."

"It can be said that the four words 'commercial state' summarize the essence of Farmus."

The Kingdom of Farmus has the most mixed crowds in the entire continent, and also has the highest single-day transaction volume among the cities on this continent.

As the center of East-West communication, the Kingdom of Farmus circulates goods from all over the world, so it earns the most and is the most sensitive to goods.

"But recently, a place called the Demon Kingdom has appeared in the far east, and according to spies, it is a kingdom founded by monsters.

This country made up of monsters actually exports large quantities of salt, sugar, and seasonings that even the Kingdom of Farmus has never seen before! "

The emergence of such a thing is absolutely intolerable for the Kingdom of Farmus.

The Kingdom of Farmus, as a merchant country, also realized instantly the value of these things. Once they hit the market and allowed the Demon Kingdom to monopolize them, the unique geographical location of the entire Kingdom of Farmus would no longer make it the only "merchant country."

This country, which can only survive by relying on business, will not be able to guarantee its citizens' basic living standards once it loses business. Moreover, without the unique status of business, Edmalis can already foresee that his life will become increasingly difficult.

So, under the instigation of the nobles, he appealed for help to the Western Holy Church, begging them for assistance.

"Is that why Edmalis did this?"

Suwey only remembered that Edmalis was not a good person, but he never paid attention to what his intentions were. He killed him just to be on the safe side, but he didn't expect that this safe side had already begun.

"And the Western Holy Church will absolutely not allow the emergence of a monster nation!"

Larzen found that his words made Suwey gradually fall into deep thought, and he would rather delay for a little time, even if this little time was not enough for him to recover at all.

 

Transfer Magic! Got it!

"That's right! The leader of the Demon Kingdom, that slime, died right now as you and I are talking! Kakaka!"

Lazan's wild laughter circled in the air. Although he didn't know the specific situation of the Demon Kingdom, he could read the relationship between Suwey and the Demon Kingdom from the proprietress's thoughts.

And now, even if Suwey won the battle with the Kingdom of Farmus, the Demon Kingdom would lose their leader.

Suwey obviously didn't want to see this scene.

He didn't say any more nonsense, stretched out his hand, and suddenly clenched it towards the void. Then the body in front of him exploded into pieces with loud laughter.

The cornerstone of the Farmus Kingdom, the chief magician Lazen, died.

It was activated, and the surrounding magic elements and blood mist were crushed in an instant, without any residue left.

"Look what abilities I got."

Suwey closed his eyes and muttered to himself. Unlike the abilities he obtained through transactions in the system space, what he obtained from Lazan now was obtained by Suwey through his own abilities.

And what we got this time was something unimaginably good.

"Transfer magic!"

Compared with the powerful fire lightning, Suwey prefers this magic, because as long as he has this thing in his hand, Suwey can directly teleport to all the places he has been to.

At the same time, the system suddenly lit up, and in the alchemy workshop, all of Lazen's magic was lit up without warning, but the next second, as if suppressed by something, it turned gray again.

Larzen would never have thought that Suwey had an inherent ability called. In his opinion, Suwey only had the ability to cut through the barrier at most, and in battle, Suwey had never used abilities like teleportation magic.

So Suwey, who had obtained this ability, immediately wanted to give it a try.

The proprietress was stunned for a moment. She knew that Suwey had killed the king of the Farmus Kingdom and the chief magician Lazan. Even the rumored assassin of the Western Holy Church was pretended by Suwey.

Suwey did not hide these things and told her everything clearly. He also asked her to convey everything he said to the Hero King of Dowagun. If this were to happen, King Gazer would definitely help him hide it at all costs.

So as long as he leaves here, Suwey doesn't have to worry about his identity being exposed.

However, at this moment, the Kingdom of Farmus is under full martial law to capture the assassins of the "Western Holy Church". Not only are the city gates closed, but even the passes are tightly sealed, and no one is allowed to pass.

Moreover, because the Western Holy Church also recently sent a team to negotiate with the Kingdom of Farmus, the Kingdom of Farmus has been in turmoil in recent times.

In the proprietress's opinion, if the two of them wanted to leave here and cross so many obstacles, it would be almost impossible, even if Suwey had great strength.

"Don't worry, I have something good."

Suwey grabbed the proprietress's hand and drew a line in front of him. Then the magic energy bursting out from his fingertips gradually formed something like a mirror. Suwey pulled the proprietress and broke into the mirror that was emitting light.

The location of the transfer magic is the Dowagon Royal City Tavern!

This was not the first time Suwey used the transfer magic, but it was the first time he led someone to use it, so when Suwey poked his head out from the other side of the mirror, he found that something seemed wrong with the destination.

The first thing that appeared on his face was the heat, and the whiteness confused Suwey's eyes. Even though he had a pair of magic eyes that could petrify things, he was still stunned for a moment because of the scene in front of him.

The proprietress who appeared next showed a playful smile the moment she saw her surroundings clearly. She even covered her lips with her palm and made a suppressed smirk.

"Isn't this... the big bathroom in the bar dormitory? I didn't expect Mr. Suwey to choose this as his destination."

Here, many employees were discussing about bathing, and the moment they saw Suwey appear, their expressions were stunned, and they didn't know how to react for a moment.

 

Assassination!

In front of Rimuru, the towering city was getting closer and closer.

Although the sense of crisis in his heart grew stronger and stronger, Rimuru did not stop this time, but ran straight towards the city gate.

Ran Ya was still chatting with Rimuru about Suwey.

Lan Ya always thought that Suwey was a ghost man. After all, it met Suwey when it came to the goblin village.

Although Suwey does not have the obvious characteristics of the ghost race, that is, the horns on his forehead, the magic energy that Suwey occasionally bursts out has the unique brutality of the ghost race.

But along the way, when Ran Ya learned from Rimuru that Suwey's true identity was actually an ordinary person, Ran Ya suddenly had an absurd feeling, that is, it turns out that ordinary people can become ghosts.

"Looks like I have to be nicer to the trio from now on."

For Lan Ya, the strength of the trio was too weak. He could easily suppress the trio without using any trump cards without even using magic.

Lan Ya couldn't help but feel scared when he thought about the trio instantly transforming into ghosts as strong as Suwey when they were beaten.

"Don't worry, Suwey is an outlier. How can ordinary people be like him?"

Rimuru shook his head. When he first learned about Suwey's true origin, he was surprised for a while. Suwey's experience was much richer than his, and also much more dangerous.

I'm afraid there is no one as peculiar as him in this world.

"Oh? I didn't expect there are ordinary people in the land of monsters?"

Just as Rimuru finished speaking, a cold voice suddenly came from behind him.

Rimuru and Ranya were startled and turned around quickly.

Although the two of them were absent-minded, they did not notice someone appearing behind them. However, this was not a problem for the two of them who had been driving all the time, unless the strength of the opponent was so high that it was frightening.

"Gu!"

Just as Rimuru took a deep breath and was about to ask who the visitor was, he was interrupted by the Great Sage who suddenly spoke.

"What happened again?"

Rimuru, whose mood had already sunk to the bottom, was a little anxious with him.

The news from the great sage made the already bad situation even worse, and coupled with the fierce killing intent of the swordsman in front of him, Rimuru was left with only confused thoughts at this moment.

But he quickly remembered that Suwey had once told him that with the help of the great sage, Rimuru had developed resistance to dealing with the barrier, and now was the time to use this resistance.

"resistance!"

Following Rimuru's order, the Great Sage started to move. He felt a surge of magic energy being rapidly drawn out and then quickly replenished in his body. After a few seconds, the Great Sage delivered good news.

This means that more than half of Rimuru's abilities cannot be used, including the ability to perceive the surroundings.

This is why Rimuru and Ranga were approached by someone without even noticing that there were people around them.

"No way? His abilities were blocked before the fight even started. Is there still such a way of fighting?"

Rimuru gave a bitter smile. He didn't like close combat very much. He would never fight in close combat if he could use ranged attacks, and would never fight hand-to-hand combat if he could use devouring. This was Rimuru's way of fighting.

But now, he was trapped here, and this barrier blocked his magic, so Rimuru could only take out the knife at his waist and fight with the newcomer.

The man in armor came to a place about ten meters in front of Rimuru. This was a place where he could react and counterattack the moment the opponent attacked, so the man decided to issue an ultimatum to the monster in front of him.

 

Give me a chance!

"What did you say!?"

Rimuru's expression suddenly froze.

The Demon Kingdom is a city that he spent a lot of effort to build, and it is also the expectation of Suwey and Miss Jing.

So in this world, Rimuru, who was originally alone, now has someone to look forward to.

Now the person in front of him said that he wanted to destroy His connection with this world, so even Rimuru would be angry.

Hinata Sakaguchi ignored Rimuru's anger, or rather, the angrier Rimuru got, the happier she became.

Her heart was also filled with anger and murderous intent towards Rimuru.

Hinata Sakaguchi was a student of Shizue Izawa and they had made progress together. However, when she learned of Shizue Izawa's death, she was plunged into grief. But later, she learned that Shizue Izawa was murdered.

The grief turned into rage, and she decided to vent it on Rimuru, the culprit, especially when he had such a face.

This is why, the moment she saw Rimuru's portrait, she decided to come in person and chop off Rimuru's head, and even used such a barrier to kill Rimuru.

"Destroy Tempest!? Have you already started the attack?"

Rimuru gritted his teeth, but after taking a deep breath, his expression became calm again.

He figured out one thing. With that person around, even if someone wanted to attack the Demon Kingdom, they would definitely be stopped. And being stopped would be the least of their worries. Without him manipulating it, Suwey would probably launch a counterattack in a few days.

"You won't succeed with him around."

Rimuru's head shake made Sakaguchi Hinata, who originally wanted to use this news to disturb his mind, frown. For a moment, he didn't know whether Rimuru was lying to him or he was really not worried at all.

But no matter what, she had no intention of letting the monster in front of her leave today.

Hinata Sakaguchi widened her eyes slightly. As one of the saints of the Western Holy Church, she had faced countless monsters. Most of the battles with them were life-and-death struggles without any explanation.

But now, in front of the Lord of the Demonic Kingdom, he was unexpectedly asked for his name.

This at least shows that the monsters in front of us are not those brainless guys.

But so what? Hinata Sakaguchi will never allow the person who killed Teacher Jing to live.

"Are you still interested in names, monster? It doesn't matter to me, so I forgot to introduce myself. I am Hinata Sakaguchi, the Right Hand of God in Luberios of the Holy Empire, the Chief Knight and Leader of the Holy Knights of the Emperor's Direct Guard Division."

Originally, Sakaguchi Hinata used this sentence to mock Rimuru's boring question, but when Rimuru heard this sentence, he showed a different emotion.

"Hinata!? So it's you. I heard you were the leader of the Holy Knights, but I didn't expect you were also the chief knight of the Emperor's Imperial Guard Division!"

Rimuru had heard this name before, of course from Izawa Shizue's words and memories, even fragments of memories. Rimuru dug out a memory from the depths of his mind and finally found a similarity with the person in front of him.

"These are meaningless to me, because I serve not the Emperor, but the Goddess Luminas!"

Hinata Sakaguchi didn't give Rimuru a chance to continue speaking. She came here to kill people. Could she possibly kill someone by talking so much?

So Sakaguchi Hinata drew his sword without hesitation, and the sword made a whistling sound in the air, and then pierced Rimuru's collar by a hair's breadth, knocking his entire body away.

Although Rimuru's eyes caught the trajectory of the sword, he was a little slow to react. Although he turned his head away at the last moment, he was still pierced by the sword.

Rimuru drew out the long sword from his waist. The blade was as smooth as water and was a sharp weapon made by several blacksmiths in his family by integrating a large amount of materials. It was not inferior to the short sword in Suwey's hand.

The blade was sharp, and it instantly cut out a trail like a shadow. As soon as it touched Sakaguchi Hinata's sword, the whole person jumped several meters away.

"Wait! I need to tell you something!"

 

Break the situation?

"You finally seem to be wanting to fight."

Hinata Sakaguchi held the hilt of the sword, the tip of the sword cut a shallow mark on the grass, and approached Rimuru step by step.

Rimuru had a strange expression on his face. He was happy that the Great Sage had reached a certain stage in analyzing the barrier.

Hinata Sakaguchi mistook this expression for a mockery of herself.

"How funny! You seem to think you can win in the barrier?"

In this extremely powerful barrier used to fight monsters, Rimuru's strength was instantly sealed by more than half.

Monsters that can't use magic basically don't use melee abilities like swordsmanship, so when facing a swordsman like Hinata, they will be easily chopped into pieces.

Rimuru, as a monster, was indeed punished by having his strength greatly reduced at this moment, but under the training of Bai Lao and Suwey, he was no longer a monster that was powerless without magic.

However, his swordsmanship was not good enough to compete with the well-trained Sakaguchi Hinata.

But his racial characteristics were there, and his nature as a slime made him less vulnerable to harm. Moreover, as he was born as a monster, his condition was also better.

Hinata Sakaguchi suddenly stepped on the ground, and his body instantly appeared in front of Rimuru. The sword flashing with seven-color light tore through the scene in front of him and instantly drilled into the sword that Rimuru raised.

Sparks then erupted between the two, Sakaguchi Hinata's sword movements became more and more fierce, and Rimuru found it increasingly difficult to defend himself.

But Rimuru was not panicked. His body was made of slime, so it didn't matter if he was stabbed. This was his advantage. However, Hinata Sakaguchi, who had a mortal body, was not like that. Once he was scratched by a knife, there would be a blood mark.

So Rimuru was more focused on defense and counterattack, and it was not until the tip of the sword made a small hole in his shoulder that he noticed something was wrong.

"No use in nullifying the sense of pain? What a hassle!"

While analyzing the barrier, the great sage also checked the sword wound he had just received. However, the conclusion he came to was not pleasing.

"It actually directly affects the mind. How long can it last?"

This type of attack was the first time Rimuru had encountered it, so his combat instinct told him to avoid the sword. However, he had already been stabbed by the sword several times, and he didn't know how long he could withstand this kind of mental attack.

The Great Sage's response made Rimuru's eyes twitch wildly. He had tried so hard to dodge, but he didn't expect that he was still on the verge of death.

But the opponent's strength is indeed strong. Rimuru is not even sure whether he can fight against the opponent in his prime.

There are three more times left before Rimuru dies.

This kind of attack that directly affects the mental level is like attacking the internal organs directly without going through the surface of the body, and it is difficult to defend against.

"It's useless to do anything. You have no way to escape!"

Hinata Sakaguchi issued a death ultimatum to Rimuru.

The surrounding area is the ultimate anti-demon barrier developed by the Western Holy Church, called the Holy Purification Barrier, which is specifically designed to restrain monsters. Here, magic elements will be purified, and high-level monsters like Rimuru will consume a lot of energy to maintain their existence.

Although she was within the barrier and was also subject to certain restrictions, she was still much stronger than Rimuru, whose power was half sealed.

Moreover, the opponent is now desperate. Rimuru only needs to stab him three more times and he will die here completely. Facing a mental attack directly is not as simple as a physical attack.

Hinata Sakaguchi went on this trip for revenge, so she chose the Seven Swords Kill method.

 

Escape!

Ifrit, the spirit that was devoured by Rimuru, is playing chess and cards with Veldora in Rimuru's body.

Just as Veldora was repeatedly crushing Ifrit, the forced summon from the Great Sage swept over Ifrit.

And Ifrit was shaking continuously as if he was having a seizure, the flames all over his body were trembling, and Ifrit fell to the ground foaming at the mouth.

Soon, the forced summoning ended.

"Are you okay? Come on, play chess. It's your turn."

Veldora glanced at the fallen Ifrit, and without giving it a chance to recover, urged it to get up.

Ifrit had originally thought of using this opportunity to evade Veldora's chess game, but it turned out that it had no such chance, so it sat up again.

"Lord Veldora, this chess piece…"

Ifrit noticed something was wrong on the chessboard, but before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by Veldora, who looked like he was going to beat him up if he continued.

"Wha! What! I didn't move while you weren't paying attention!"

Veldora's defense was so concise that Ifrit was speechless.

So in silence, Veldora won again.

Meanwhile, Rimuru in the outside world is currently summoning an Ifrit made of magic elements.

The moment it appeared, flames instantly swept through the surrounding space, and the high temperature made the nearby air scorching.

But what was unexpected was that Ifrit, who was rushing towards Hinata Sakaguchi, suddenly let out a painful cry in mid-air.

"What's going on!?"

He wanted to use Ifrit as cover to give himself a chance to get close to Sakaguchi Hinata.

With the fiery magic element in front of him, not only would Suwey's figure not be discovered, but even the air flow and magic element circulation caused by his sword would not be discovered!

In a head-on battle, Suwey is not like Rimuru, whose true form is a slime. He does not want to be stabbed seven times and die on the spot, so after coming here, he used the Kyuubi Kanesada to open a small door in the barrier.

Although he could spend a lot of time to completely break the barrier, that would not only alert Sakaguchi Hinata, but he was also not sure how long Rimuru could hold on.

So he chose to use the flames that filled the screen when Ifrit appeared as cover, and then invaded the barrier. Although he felt a sense of oppression the moment he arrived here, after applying a BUFF on his body, all the negative effects disappeared without a trace.

And the force that burst out in an instant pushed the long sword in his hand and stabbed towards Sakaguchi Hinata.

Although Hinata Sakaguchi is very powerful, she is still within the human category. Once hit in the brain, even she will have the word "death" written on her face.

"Show mercy!"

At this moment, Rimuru, who was not far away, suddenly shouted and rushed forward to stop Suwey, while Sakaguchi Hinata was startled and quickly retreated to the rear.

Suwey didn't expect Rimuru to stop him at this time and couldn't help but pause for a moment, thinking that he had something unfinished. It was at this moment that Hinata Sakaguchi seized the opportunity.

She risked a scratch on her eyebrow to save her life from Suwey's knife. She jumped and appeared on the grass dozens of meters away. She wiped the blood flowing from the corner of her eyebrow and showed a lingering fear on her face.

Just now, she almost died at the hands of her opponent.

Hinata Sakaguchi had not experienced this kind of terror between life and death for a long time, so he took a deep breath, and his trembling hands expressed the excitement of meeting his opponent to the fullest.

Unlike facing Rimuru, the confrontation with Suwey aroused her fighting spirit!

"Let's go!"

 

198.Meet!

"Suwey, weren't those grenades fake? Why did they suddenly explode?!"

Just before leaving the barrier, Rimuru looked back and saw Hinata Sakaguchi being engulfed by the smoke and dust produced by the explosion.

He also felt that the grenade Suwey had just thrown was fake.

After all, that thing didn't even have a grenade pull ring.

"Of course the grenades are fake. We still need to find materials for the gunpowder, but magic can just be stored. I don't need to tell you which one to choose between these two, right?"

Suwey rolled his eyes.

Things like gunpowder require materials, and materials are limited. Things like magic elements are simple. As long as there is magic elements in this world and Suwey can still use magic, then this grenade made of magic elements can be used continuously.

Moreover, the grenade made of magic is much more powerful than gunpowder. The price is calculated according to Suwey's strength. The stronger Suwey is, the more magic elements are given, and the more powerful the explosion will be.

But even so, Suwey was not worried at all that the grenades he threw out would cause any serious injuries to Sakaguchi Hinata.

Rimuru, who had fought with Sakaguchi Hinata, also recognized this point. Sakaguchi Hinata was stronger than him. Rimuru, who understood this, also knew that although the explosion just now was fierce, it was only fierce and created a pit to affect Sakaguchi Hinata's pace.

But Hinata Sakaguchi will not enter the royal capital. Once her identity is exposed in Ingracia, it will cause a lot of unnecessary trouble. But this mission must be completed, and killing Rimuru is what she must do.

With a vengeful heart, Hinata Sakaguchi walked out of the barrier. She wanted to go back to the Western Holy Church. In the Kingdom of Ingrassia, there was a spy who could help her keep an eye on Rimuru and Suwey.

In the royal capital, they couldn't use transfer magic, so if they wanted to leave, they had to leave the royal capital. So Hinata Sakaguchi planned to go back to get some things and arrange some nearby to give to the two people.

"Suwey, why are you here?"

Although their appearance caused a commotion in front of the royal capital's gate, they eventually entered the capital smoothly after rejecting the invitations of several wealthy ladies.

When entering the street, Rimuru's expression hidden behind the mask was one of shock. Although Suwey couldn't see through the mask, he could feel that Rimuru's body was stiff because of excessive surprise.

"Suwey, this is glass, right?!"

Rimuru patted Suwey's shoulder, his tone full of astonishment. There was actually such a thing as glass in this world, and it was widely used!

He originally thought that this was the standard Western medieval setting of a fantasy world, but he didn't expect that the current situation seemed to be far beyond his imagination.

And just like in modern society, behind the glass windows are a large number of goods for sale or display.

It was not obvious from a distance, but when he got closer, the houses Rimuru saw were all modern in style, and some were even made of reinforced concrete.

Especially the headquarters of the so-called free association, which is a complete replica of a modern office building. Although it is not that tall, it is still enough to be called "standing out from the crowd" in this Ingrassia Kingdom.

"There are even automatic doors."

Suwey stood in front of the gate of the Freedom Group headquarters. As he walked forward, the empty glass door inside automatically extended to both sides, revealing the cold air emanating from inside.

Completely different from the Dowagun and Farmus Kingdoms that Suwey had seen, this country was almost like a collection of modern cities, and the royal city was full of the shadow of modern technology.

The colorful lights hanging upside down in the main hall of the Freedom Group headquarters further demonstrated this to him.

When the two of them walked into the cylindrical elevator under the guidance of the front desk, although Suwey did not show it on his face, the word "fuck" popped up in his heart.

 

Master!

But Rimuru would never have imagined that the other party would be filled with anger when he saw his mask.

The reason is the anti-demon mask on his face, which belongs to Shizue Izawa.

These students have deep feelings for Izawa Shizue, who protects them. Even Kagurazaka Yuuki, who has his own agenda, is sincere to Miss Shizue.

So when Rimuru, who couldn't speak at all, said, "I am a slime and can simulate the appearance of the monsters I have swallowed", not only did Suwey's eyes twitch, but Kagurazaka Yuuki's face also became gloomier.

Yuuki Kagurazaka is a good actor.

Suwey glanced at Yuuki Kagurazaka rushing towards Rimuru and punching him, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

Yuuki Kagurazaka is a hidden villain, much stronger than the saint Hinata Sakaguchi, but the momentum they are showing now is just like the fists and kicks between two ordinary demons.

Moreover, Yuuki Kagurazaka knew the whole process, and it was even he who told Hinata Sakaguchi Rimuru's identity.

But what He showed now was the same shock as when He first saw Rimuru.

Yuuki Kagurazaka's attack was neither fierce nor powerful. Although it sounded powerful and the waves that swept out crushed the surrounding objects, it was still contained in this room.

"Calm down, kid."

Rimuru's response made Suwey frown. He found that although Rimuru was a great sage, he still did not have a clear understanding of his opponent's strength.

"Great Sage, please play what you want Miss Jing to see."

Ignoring the two people fighting, Suwey shouted at Rimuru, and after only a few seconds of silence, the magic energy emanating from Rimuru created the same scene as when he and Izawa Shizue stood on the edge of the cliff and admired the modern urban scenery.

These scenes were not unfamiliar to Yuuki Kagurazaka, and he also needed an excuse to back down, and Suwey's behavior just met his expectations.

After filling up half of the room with comics and light novels, Yuuki Kagurazaka finally broke free from the story. He put down the book in his hand and asked the most important question with an unsatisfied look.

"What is your purpose for coming here this time? For example, to find a way back?"

Yuuki Kagurazaka's gaze lingered on Rimuru and Suwey for a while, as if examining the abilities of the two.

Suwey waved his hand, signaling Rimuru to answer. He had come here specifically to rescue people, and now that his mission was completed, he was not in a hurry to go back. Instead, he wanted to see what this seemingly modern city was like.

"No, it's not. There's something that really concerns me. It's Miss Jing's last wish, and the children of Freedom Academy."

This sentence made Yuuki Kagurazaka's eyes slightly widen, and his expression seemed to be in a trance for a moment. At this moment, Suwey seemed to be able to read a little bit of Yuuki Kagurazaka's sincerity from that "mask".

"Is that so? Since this is Shizuka-sensei's last wish, then I'll leave those children to you, Rimuru."

With Yuuki's guarantee, it only took Rimuru and Suwey a few minutes to become teachers at the Freedom Academy.

"Eh? Am I going to be a teacher too?"

Suwey originally planned to leave here in a few days and go to Ramiris's labyrinth to trade some good things there. Although there were garbled characters in the refining, there was only a little bit of the material that could be used to refine the great sage left in Ramiris's labyrinth.

As long as he gets these materials, Suwey plans to throw them into the refining workshop and forcibly refine them.

But he didn't expect that Rimuru would actually pull him in and insist on becoming a teacher at the Freedom Academy with him.

In terms of magic, Suwey cannot compare with Rimuru, but in terms of swordsmanship and close combat experience, Suwey is far superior to Rimuru.

This is also the reason why Rimuru insisted on dragging him to be a teacher.

The style of the Free Academy is also very modern. Due to the promotion of free associations, all schools in the Ingrassia Kingdom have also become of this style.
