[Azrail POV]
After I evolve, I can feel that I became a bit stronger.
Azrail: "Is this Divine Protection?"
[Confirmed. When naming a monster, the monster who received the name goes through an evolution. The named monster becomes more powerful and might evolve into a new species].
Azrail: "I see. Thanks Observer-sensei"
But still. I may just take the name of First Death Mage but how power is he was back there?
The First Death Mage, Azrail. Just who are you and why I been chosen to become his successor? And what kind dream I get before? A memory or a vision of incoming future?
This make my brain hurt. I sigh as I looked at Veldora who talking with Rimuru and Shiraori.
Rimuru: "Anyway! I'm going to eat you now, Veldora"
Veldora: "Wait! I have something to tell Azrail before I go."
Azrail: Hm? What you want to tell me?
Veldora: "If you get out from here, make sure not to tell other your name. It will cause ruckus because Azrail name consider as taboo to people."
Azrail: I see. I will. But what name should I use then?
Veldora: "It your problem, not mine."
Azrail: Seriously, Veldora?
Rimuru and Shiraori giggled while I somehow can feel that Veldora smirk at me. I sigh at this but smile tiredly as I already get used to they behaviour.
Azrail: Anything else I don't known you want to tell me before you get eat, Veldora?
Veldora: "Hm... Ah! Now I remember!"
Veldora: "In this World, everyone with Ultimate Skills can cheat they own death but not in front of Death Mage. In other word, you can kill them completely if you are stronger than them."
Azrail: I see. *frown* to think they can cheat Death is kinda... broken to be honest.
Veldora: "You can said that"
Rimuru: "Well, it done I believe."
Shiraori: "Jeez, both of you talk make me sleepy you known?"
Azrail: You always sleepy, Shiraori-chan.
Shiraori: *blush* "Hey! That is rude ok?!" *mumble* "after all you kinda comfy to be honest"
Rimuru: Okay! I'm gonna eat you now, Veldora! Break out of there already!"
Veldora: "Leave it to me. I will see you three face-to-face in no time!"
Rimuru: "All right! Unique Skill: Predator!"
Both me and Shiraori look at Rimuru's body expanded so much that it covered all of Veldora. When it covered everything, it started to shrinking until Rimuru was the same size as it was before. Three of us goes silent at this while me and Shiraori look at Rimuru. Shiraori broke the silent while whistling.
Shiraori: *whistle~* "That is something for sure."
Azrail: Agree.
Rimuru: "Jeez, you think this is a show or what, huh?"
Azrail: *chuckle* Maybe, maybe not.
Little did we known, we just cause a big ruckus outside. Oh well, not my fault to begin with.
[Azrail POV]
It had been several days after we started searching for exit once again. Rimuru ate all the herbs and ore while Shiraori ate a ton of monsters on our way. Of course I cook the monster as we eat together.
Rimuru and Shiraori then go swimming while I look at them from a far. After a minute later look like Rimuru acquired Water Manipulation. Well, she is slime after all and it suited her well. Shiraori already has one so it not weird when she use it too.
We then ran into a monster. It a snake that had black scale, Rimuru and Shiraori look frightened while me give a blank face at this snake. Rimuru and Shiraori then use Water Blade.
Rimuru & Shiraori: "Water Blade!"
They easily defeated the snake as the snake's head was cleanly cut off. I kinda amaze to be honest. They then ate it as I looked at them. I manage to get a bit of it and eat it. Weird, I can't taste it, is it poison or what?
[You acquired New Extra Skill]
[New Extra Skill, Poison Breath]
[Completed].
Azrail: "...That is something"
Look like my new Unique Skill, Eater is working by way. A smoke then cover Rimuru, as the smoke had dispersed, I saw the same snake Rimuru had just eaten. Shiraori and I was amaze at this.
Shiraori: "Huh, that is amazing. Look like you can mimic whatever you eat"
Rimuru: "Yup! It one of my Unique Skill Sub-Skill."
Shiraori: "Jeez, I'm jealous to you"
Azrail: "There, there. You are awesome too, Shiraori. Don't worry, Okay?
I patted her head as she purred at this. I chuckled as I already get used to her behaviour. We continue our way to find an exit as we encounter many monster, such as a dinosaur looking one that Rimuru kill with poison breath. It turn into weird thing to be honest until Shiraori vomit upon see it.
We then encounter a spider that not the same kind as Shiraori. Rimuru and I look at her asking permission.
Azrail: So... can we kill it?
Shiraori: "... Yes, and I want to eat it too."
Rimuru: "Is not that cannibalism?
Shiraori: "Well, I once eat a spider once so... yeah but I'm hungry right now."
Rimuru & Azrail: "Ok"
We end up killing the spider as Rimuru, Shiraori and I eat it even though Rimuru feel disgust at it. She must hate spider. At least she not hate Shiraori.
Shiraori then teach Rimuru how to make spiderweb as Rimuru learn fast and make one already. Two bats got trapped in it as Shiraori and Rimuru ate it. Jeez, both of them are quit an eater. If I remember correctly, bats have a vocal cords, so maybe Rimuru and Shiraori can mimic them and then be able to speak.
Azrail: Try Rimuru and Shiraori.
Rimuru: R-i-m-u-r-u
Shiraori: S-h-i-r-a-o-r-i
Azrail: Good, now faster.
Rimuru: Limulu
Shiraori: Shilaoli
Azrail: Hm... maybe it will take time. Well, just practice it everyday and eventually you two will learn.
Rimuru: I k-n-o-w-n
Shiraori: U-n-d-e-r-s-t-o-o-d
After a few days, Rimuru and Shiraori was able to speak well.
Rimuru: We are aliens.
Shiraori: Take us to your master.
Azrail: See? You two could do it.
Rimuru: Yeah, thank to you actually.
Shiraori: We have a great teacher after all.
Azrail: *chuckle* No problem. Now hop on, we gonna move.
Rimuru & Shiraori: Hai!
Rimuru sat on top of my head while Shiraori cling on my back. We already get used to this actually.
Then, after several days, weeks, or months, we found a big, old, rusty door. Look like it never be used for centuries.
Shiraori: How are we gonna get out?
Rimuru: Maybe some Water Blade would work.
Azrail: Let's me try something.
I looked at the door as I breath in and out as ready my fist.
Azrail: 100%... Punch!
The door break apart and broke upon my fist make a contact with it. Rimuru and Shiraori jawdroped at this.
Azrail: Done.
Shiraori: Jeez, you and your ridiculous strength.
Rimuru: *nodded* umu umu
Azrail: *smile wry* Sorry.
We then hear someone voice outside as we immediately get out as fast as possible. I don't want to get caught for vandalism, okay!
Azrail: Run!
Shiraori: It's your fault, Baka!
Rimuru: I agree with Shiraori, kono baka!
Azrail: I'm sorry!
We or actually me who carry Rimuru and Shiraori run as fast and far as possible from the crime scene.
