***Before Slime and Sera attacked***
“Nash! Don’t carry too much or you’ll fall!” A voice of a girl sounded in the forest.
“It’s fine, sister Elena! I’m strong, and this training will make me even more!!” Nash replied with a big smile as he carried five big lumbers in both of his hands.
“I won’t help you if you get tripped and fell, you know,” Warned Elena for the last time.
“It’s fine!! This much is easy peasy for- Whoa!” Nash tripped and fell to the ground together with the lumbers.
“See? You tripped, just like what I expected,” said Elena as she sighs.
“You can’t wish for someone to trip, sister Elena! That’s bad!” Nash rebuked without rising from the ground.
“I don’t wish for you to trip, but I did warn you that you might trip. That’s a good deed, while you, the stubborn boy who doesn’t listen to my warning is the one who is bad,” (Elena)
“And stop lying on the ground like that, or I’ll tell grandpa Kyron that you didn’t want to listen to me,” Warned Elena.
“Oh please! Anything but that!” Nash immediately rise from the ground and gathered the lumbers that fell together with him.
“Ugh… You made me remember how that old man punished me by tying me on a tree all day…” Nash said with a wry smile as he shivers.
“That’s your fault. No one asked you to secretly stole grandpa’s sword and used it to kill some magic beasts,” (Elena)
“I-It was just a training! I didn’t plan to secretly steal it and hid it and make it mine! I was just curious how the old man’s sword felt! That’s all!” (Nash)
“I believe you are trying to take grandpa’s sword. You must have thought that he won’t notice it, right?” (Elena)
“Yeah… Who’ll ever think that the sword will fly itself towards that old geezer!!” Complained Nash.
“Well, grandpa is a veteran sword god ranked warrior. So it’s not that surprising, right?” (Elena)
“Well… You’re right… Why the hell did I do that anyway…” Nash sighs because of his stupidity.
“But Nash. You must be imitating how Ren used to call grandpa ‘Old man’ and ‘Old Geezer’, right? Drop it, it’s impolite!” Elena scolds Nash.
“Ugh… How did you know…? Well grandpa did tell me to stop calling him that, but since big bro Ren called him like that, it sounds cool, hehe,” Nash imagined how a big figure Oz must have been.
Elena who heard Oz’s name felt a distinct pain inside her heart.
(Even though I’m the one who mentioned his name first… I thought I had long forgotten these feelings… Why the hell am I remembering those days….) (Elena)
“Sis,” Nash called out Elena with a rare serious tone. Hearing it, Elena immediately grasped the meaning of his call and immediately spread her mana softly but widely.
“Enemies, eight in number. They’re sword saint and archmage ranked, Nash,” (Elena)
They nod towards each other and start to continue walking back home slowly.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Some figures dashed towards both of them.
“Now!” (Elena)
*********************************************
“H-how the hell could the two of you so strong!” Asked one of the demonized fire elemental sword god warriors that had got captured at Slime’s black cocoon once more.
Slime had unsummoned Reo and have him back in his consciousness. The lion of darkness that made the demons trembled in fear.
“Sorry to make you face reality, but it’s just that you lots didn’t have any chances with us since the beginning,” Answered Slime with a shrug.
“I-impossible… We even transformed into demons to gain unbeatable power!” (Demonized Sword God Warrior)
“Well, humans should strive in a human’s way, depending on things like transforming into a demon will only lead you to your doom,” Sera coldly commented.
“Ugh… Just kill us already…” Said one of the demonized sword god warriors, surrendering his life.
“So? What is your decision, princess?” Slime asked towards Sera.
“I have no intention to kill any of you since dying is the very last thing you should do to pay for your sins. But we will still imprison the four of you and you need to tell us anything you know in exchange for your lives. Will you accept that punishment?” (Sera)
The four demonized sword god warriors sighed as they finally realized that they had transformed into demons for nothing. They still lose to a mere archmage ranked magician and a sword god, despite having the advantage in number.
“Well, good choice, old men,” (Slime)
“But, the both of you shouldn’t relax yet,” One of the demonized fire elemental sword god warriors suddenly said.
“Why?” Asked Sera as she narrowed her eyes.
“The king dispatched an all-out attack towards this mountain in order to kill all of you in one swoop. There are still other four sword god ranked warriors dispatched by the king in order to kill the old guardian,” Explained him.
“G-grandpa. He’s in trouble!” Sera about to rush towards the old man Kyron in panic, but Slime’s hand stopped her.
“The old guardian is not that weak, trust him, and trust me,” Slime said confidently.
“I won’t be that confident if I were you. Including us, there are 8 sword god ranked warriors, 50 sword saint ranked warriors, and 100 master swordsman ranked warriors dispatched for this assault. And all of them are elites!” Warned the demonized sword god warrior.
“Hm… But I think I’ll stay on my stand. I believe that there are no casualties here other than your allies, you know?” Slime said with a shrug.
“What!?” (Demonized fire elemental sword god)
“How is it?” Asked Slime. Sera and the demonized sword god warriors got confused as to whom is he talking to.
“Successful. No casualties, my lord,” The hoarse voice appeared from below. As if Slime’s shadow spoke for itself.
(That, is that the thing that surrounds the water vortex cast by him at the lake?) (Sera)
“We’ve captured most of them, while we’ve got rid of those who might cause troubles,” (Shadow)
“Good job,” (Slime)
“It’s my honor. And my lord,” The shadow called out Slime once more.
“Hm? What is it?” (Slime)
“A sword god and a master swordsman ranked warriors are heading towards this way, there is a sword saint ranked warrior in front of them, it looks like they’re chasing after him. And it seems that the old guardian is heading this way too, my lord,” Reported the shadow.
“Is that so? Thanks for the information, report the rest to headquarters. Leave several of you in my shadow,” Ordered Slime without paying Sera any mind whether she heard his conversation or not.
(That should be enough to give her a hint of our empire’s forces) (Slime)
(Ah. I thought you were boasting to her, master) (Fenrir)
(He was, Fenrir. And don’t comment on it, it’ll make master embarrassed) (Reo)
(I’m not embarrassed! And I’m not boasting!!) (Slime)
“Hey! Stop it, scary face uncle!” A boy’s voice sounded loud, stealing Slime, Sera, and the demonized sword god warriors’ attention.
“Stop following me!” The man shouted as he appears in front of Slime and co and stopped his tracks. Just like the boy just said, the man had lots of scars on his face that made his face looked scary. His gaze stopped at the demonized sword god warriors that had got captured by Slime and Sera.
His expression changed from a surprised one to a furious one.
“You bastard!!” The man charged towards Slime and Sera as he unsheathes his sword.
Slime sighs and ready his staff, but it turns out that he didn’t need to take any action at all.
Bam!
“Ugh…” The rushing sword saint ranked warrior groaned in pain as a fist suddenly smashed the back of his head from behind.
“That’s cheating! You said that I’m allowed to deal with him myself!!” The boys sounded his protest towards the girl that just smashed the sword saint ranked warrior.
“He’s about to attack someone else, and you’re slow, Nash! Don’t blame me for your own weakness!” Retorted the girl.
“Ugh! Your words are so sharp, sister Elena…” Said Nash as he grasped his chest and acted as if he’s having a heart attack.
“Stop exaggerating!” (Elena)
“E-Elena?” Sera called out towards the girl.
“Eh? Sera? Ah! It’s indeed the date where you usually come to visit!” (Elena)
“Yup! I brought you the book you asked me before!” (Sera)
“Really? Where is-” As the two girls are having a happy reunion, the sword saint ranked warrior that had just got a direct attack from Elena from behind rose from the ground.
“Ah, he’s not dead yet, huh,” Said Slime indifferently.
“Since it came to this, I’ll use my demonification! I’ll kill all of you right now!!” The Sword saint ranked warrior eats something that looked like a pill. Without any time lag, he suddenly releases a terrifying amount of demonic aura that is much enormous than the demonized sword god warriors had emitted.
(I-isn’t this is far stronger than the sword gods’ demonification? How could this even be…?) (Sera)
(Shit! He’s going berserk! I need to stop him now!) (Slime)
But before Slime could take any action.
Slash!
“Hm… To think there are quite a lot of people that had resorted to the power of demons… How saddening, how saddening…” An old voice appears in front of the sword saint ranked warrior that was in the middle of his demonification.
“The world is indeed in grave danger,” Continue the old voice.
“”Grandpa Kyron!!”” (Nash & Elena & Sera)
