"Become... a champion? the hell are you saying..."
He said
"I'm not saying you must, this is a request, Remember what Fuze said? If word gets out that monsters were the ones who defeated the Orc Lord, this won't be the end of the line"
It responded
"I'd like to make it seem like you and your buddies defeated the Orc Lord, A nation of monsters aided a gallant party of a champion, with arms and provisions so they could fight the Orc Lord on even grounds, we hope to forge friendly relations with mankind after all"
continued the slime
"We can... have Burmund Kingdom assist you with that plan"
Said Fuze regaining his composure
"With the help of the minister, I'm sure we could spread rumours to the neighbouring countries at the very least"
"Hold on, what are you jumping on board for, these guys are monsters!"
Argued Youmu
"I can understand your concern, but there is more to this than the kindness of my heart, for one thing, this nation is home to over ten thousand monsters, if they so wished they could not only end our lives but our nations aswell"
Fuze shut Youmu down
"..."
"I, for one, would like to give the plan some thought, naturally, that's assuming that you really aren't an enemy of mankind, that much is a given"
Continued Fuze
"In wich case you should stay for a while, you might even enjoy it, you too Youmu, you are the key to this plan, it would be great if you agreed, but feel free to refuse"
"It doesn't suit me, you're asking me to play the role of some kind of hero"
to which I immediately answered
"Do not ever, be a hero, most of the times, a hero's death happens suddenly and miserably, and if you take the unique existence of "Hero" Don't even think about it, that's something on par with a Demon Lord"
"Hey kid the adults are ta-"
he tried to say
"I'm already eighteen, I'm an adult, alright? Also I have a name, it's Feru"
but I cut him off
After a short pause Rimuru continued
"You might not belive me, but we really aren't trying to force you, please think about it"
"Can I look around?"
Well I could already tell he was going to choose to become a champion, but he wasn't going to become one over night, in order to be worthy of the title champion, he would train to act like one, and be strong like one, and so I and Hakuro would be having "light spars" with him, as I was Hakuro's best student, one day I would train the goblins while Hakuro would fight Youmu and vice versa, and so today it was me and Youmu one on one
"Hey come at me"
I said holding a substitute wooden sword, and so, I played defense, striking at every opening Youmu had, I made sure to check with
"Well then Rimuru, we'll be off"
Said the Champion
"Their form has finally taken shape, although only for a short period of time, this is the results of earnest training"
Said Hakuro
"Ronmel headed back to Falmouth shortly before us, he was ecstatic about reporting the Orc Lords Defeat, ...well, not like we were the ones who defeated it"
Said Youmu
"What? So you're leaving?"
"Yup Milim-san"
he said awkwardly
"Do your best out there"
"Yup"
"Good for you Youmu, it isn't everyday that you get praised by a Demon Lord"
"Eh?"
"Right, we never properly introduced her, this here is Demon Lord Milim Nava"
"That's me"
"WHAAAAAT"
And so, Youmu embarked on his trip a little tipsy
--------------------------Some time later--------------------------
I went hunting with Kabla, Guido, Ellen and Milim some time later I Ellen and Milim went to call Rimuru over
"Wahahaha, I have returned!"
"Milim-chan and Feru-kun were amazing, her senses were so sharp that hunting was a breeze, and he was so fast that getting to them wasn't a problem whatsoever"
"It was a big catch today"
"OK, OK, I'll take a look
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Over here guys!"
Said Guido
"Hey, I think I see a dryad over there!"
I pointed at the faded being
"you are, correct, I am the younger sister of Terainee, Toraia"
"it's rare for you to visit, what is it?"
asked Rimuru
"I have come to report Charybdis' Revival, and ...this is it's first destination"
