Previous Chapter:

((Now I shall give you 2 a name.)) Veldora said.

'Present'

MC's POV:

After we named ourselves Tempest. Veldora also started to give names us 2.

((Red Slime, your name will be Rizaku, Rizaku Tempest! & Blue Slime, your name will be Rimuru, Rimuru Tempest.)) Veldora declared.

Just as Veldora declared us the names our body began glow. Rimuru's body started to glow golden.

I quickly used thought acceleration & said 'Solomon'.

'Quick Solomon, absorb as much as Magicules my body & soul can handle.' I ordered Solomon.

[On it, Master.] Solomon said.

Our evolution was about to start. Solomon, right now, is managing the intake of Veldora's magicules. My body glowed bright crimson & turned into different shapes. After my evolution is finished, I can feel it, the name Rizaku Tempest ingraved into my very soul.

((Ugh, are you ok? You took nearly 8 percent of my magicules.)) Seems like Veldora is worried & so Rimuru.

"Don't worry, I'm fine."

((What is your existence value now that you two are named?)) Veldora asked. I'm also curious. Let's check it.

"Wait, let me check."

'Solomon'

[Report... Master' EV is currently 3,200,000 which is 8 times more & individual Rimuru is 80,000.]

Wow! Now that shocked me a little.

"My Existence Value is 3,200,000 & Rimuru is 80,000."

(I still have a long way to go, huh.) Rimuru exclaimed a little saddened.

"Do not worry about that, Brother. I'll help you in every possible way & after Veldora frees from his seal we will become invincible. Hehe" I said while giggling a little.

(Brother, atleast only this time can I thank you?)) Rimuru asked me. Well, it's okay I think.

"Well, fine. Only this time, okay. And also you will also become very strong. "

((Kuahahahahaha, as expected of my sworn brothers, you two are destined to become powerful.)) Veldora said with a pride face.

"Thanks, now Rimuru, devour him."

(Ok, Veldora you ready?)

((Kuahahaha, I was born to be ready!))

(Alright, brace yourself. Devour him whole Predator!)

Just as Rimuru said that, his body expanded & covered Veldora. Slowly, Veldora was devoured & Rimuru shrink back to his normal size.

(Now that he's gone. What should we do?)

"Leave this damn place."

No One's POV:

Right now there are 2 slimes in front of a giant door. They have ventured out of this cave killing many monsters & obtaining many skills. Rizaku, the red slime, barely killed any monster coz he wanted his new brother, Rimuru, to gain some experience & skills. During their little journey inside the cave Rimuru also become a little stronger. Now, when they were about to go out, the door suddenly opened.

(Quick, hide somewhere.)

(Ok.)

Both slimes quickly hid themselves behind a rock. Just as they were hiding Rizaku quickly concealed his aura. As they hid themselves, you can see 3 people come out, 2 males & 1 female. They wore cheap outfits that made them look like idiots.

"Whew! Finally got this thing open. The whole lockin mechanism must've rusted out...,'' the 1 person said.

"Yeah, I'll bet. Nobody's ever tried going in for 3 hundred years or whatever, right?" Replied the 2 voice.

"There is no records of anyone attempting to make an entrance in this cave. Are you sure we're safe? We are not going to get ourselves onto a sudden attacked...? Commented the 3rd person.

''Gahhahhahahah!" Laughed the 2nd one.

" Oh! Come on. Maybe this guy was invincible a few centuries back, but it's nothing just a big overgrown lizard, y'know? I told you guys about how I bagged a basilisk solo once, didn't I? So, don't worry, it'll be fine!"

"I was wondering 'bout that, actually," the 3rd one replied. "Are you sure that's the truth, Kabal? A basilisk is a B+ ranked monster. You truly handled that yourself?"

"Quite playing dumb! I'm B ranked, y'know! Some huge reptile ain't gonna faze me!" Kabal defended himself.

"All right, all right. Just keep your guard up, if you could. And remember, we can always use my Escape skill if things turn sour..."

"Can we save the friendly chitchat for later?" The 1st interjected. I need some quiet. It's just about time for me to activate Concealing Arts!"

Three of them, it sounded like, none of them making much an effort at stealth. One of the men did some gestures & they became invisible after a few seconds & went deep into the cave.

Rizaku's POV:

"What a creep, I'll have to make friends with him later."

Rimuru voiced his thoughts out loud.

"Brother, your desires are licking out from mind."

"Ackk, I've no such desires. I'm a humble slime!"

"Well, here I thought that the camouflage I copied from them. I'll give it to you but seems like you don't want." I said to Rimuru. I know him very well he'll definitely ask me. 'What do you think about it, Solomon?' [I think the same, naster!] Seems like Solomon is thinking the same as me. Just as I finished speaking with Solomon. Rimuru came jumping infront of me like the child is going to get his favourite thing from his parent. Hehe.

"Really, really. You'll give me the camouflage. Thank you, brother. Yahh!"

"But I thought you had no desire. Well, whatever, here you go.'' As I said that, I used my unique skill void to provide him that camouflage spell with the help of Solomon. Not like I don't know it's just that Solomon knows how to do it flawlessly. Unlike me.

Rimuru seems like he wanted to thank me. But he didn't. Then the 2 of us hopped out of the door & went deep into the forest.

Right now we are having a stroll in the Jura forest. I am releasing only 30% of my aura while Rimuru is releasing all of it. We encountered the unnamed Ranga & his pack. When I was about to make tgem submit, they ran away the moment they felt our aura. That was one heck of a moment. Seriously, that was laughable.

'Hmm, Now that I think. I should save Ranga's father. Afterall, I also need a companion. I'll give Ranga's father to Rimuru. Yeah, that'll be good. And Ranga will be mine. In the anime he was looking so fluffy & cute but, in real life he is so adorable. I'll definitely take him as my companion.'

As I was thinking about that, a few goblins appear in front of us. They have tattered clothes & some beat- up weapons. The one with red bandana opened his mouth.

"Guga, S-strong ones do have any business here?" He asked.

"Nope, do need something from us?" I asked him.

"Y-yes, seeing your aura's, w-we have a favour to ask."

And just like that I & Rimuru were led to their village by them.

"Hey, little brother."

"Mm, what is it big bro." I showed respect coz he is an old man. And always respect you elders. (A/N. Never disrespect anyone even if he is younger than you.)

"I just wanted to ask. What that goblin mean when he said aura." Rimuru asked.

"Change your magic perspective to yourself & take a look at your aura." I said to him.

No One's POV:

As Rizaku said, Rimuru changed his perspective to himself. He can see that the aura he is releasing is too much.

"Did you see, how much aura you are releasing?"

"Y-yeah!" Rimuru replied.

"I was releasing 40% of my Aura to repel the monstes around us. Rizaku said.

"How do I control it?" Rimuru asked. Seriously, this guy is nuts. In the anime he had concealed his aura by himself & now... *Sigh* i just sighed.

"Hey, don't just sigh around. Tell me the solution about how can I control my Aura."

"Hai,hai. And don't order me like that. I don't like people ordering me. And since, you asked me I'll tell you."

"Just suck it into your stomach."

I instantly concealed my aura while Rimuru took a few tries. After that, the goblins that were escorting us relaxed a bit. We eventually reached our destination & were waiting in the biggest hut.

MC's POV:

As we were waiting for the unnamed Rigurd to come, I thought about all the future enemies that we will have. To prepare myself for future battles, I asked Solomon constantly generate Magicules &store them in my demiplane. If I use my stored Magicules, I may theoretically one shot Eurazania like the loli Milim did.

'Let's test that out with the orcs later.'

My thoughts were interrupted by an old goblin that walked in.

''Sirs, sorry for keeping you both waiting." Future Rigurd said.

"No, no. We don't mind at all." Rimuru said."

"Hello" I greeted him.

Then I just let Rimuru talk to them for a while & Rimuru finally asked.

"What will you give us in return for your protection?"

The goblins looked startled a bit.

"W-we will swear our eternal & undying loyalty, Masters."

"Yosh, let's go to the wounded 1st."

We were about to leave the hut. I, then turned told to Rimuru.

"Rimuru, you go ahead. I need to go somewhere & will come back when the direwolves attack."

"Ok"

When he said that I quickly head out of the village. I stopped myself after reaching a deserted area & released my aura.

"You can come out now, dryad."

I said this & waited for a while. I sensed her spying on us ever since we stepped out of the cave. Then a beautiful fine figured dyrad with breast size about nearly C cup size appeared infront of me & bowed slightly. I think I just saw my death in front of my eyes.

[It's just your imagination.] Solomon said.

I knew it was her. But I didn't didn't expected her to gain emotions this fast. For now I'll just let it go. As I was thinking that, the dryad spoke.

"Please pull back your aura, monster with Lord Veldora's blessings. My name is Treyni. I'm sorry for spying you & your brother & mean no harm. You see, I am a caretaker of the Jura forest & was only keeping an eye on potential threats." She said. Well, yeah. Anyone who will see this much aura will be scared.

I instantly concealed my aura.

"Hello, Treyni-san. My name is Rizaku Tempest. You can call me Rizaku. You don't have to worry about anything. Although I am dangerous, I won't hurt anyone or destroy the forest." I reassured her.

"Thank you for your kindness, Rizaku-Sama."

"You're welcome, Treyni-san. Ask me if you need any help, Ok? Well, I need to go back for now. See ya!" I said with a smile.

"Yes, Rizaku-Sama." She smiled back. I won't be thinking about anything like before. I don't want to die again. 'Yosh, let's go back to the village.' As I went back to the village I saw Rimuru was building a fence.
