Chương 8: Ch 7: AFTER THE KISS
~Rimuru POV~
After Shidou did something that Rimuru couldn't expect... kiss Rimuru
0.0001 seconds later Rimuru was startled and didn't understand what just happened
0.04 seconds later Rimuru realized what was going on 1 second later Rimuru was able to react and push Shidou away from his face
Despite being small in size, Rimuru's strength was strong enough to push Shidou down, causing him to fall to the ground.
The kiss lasted about 1 second and ended quickly with Rimuru pushing Shidou away from his face While Rimuru was confused, she suddenly felt a certain connection with Shidou.
That connection is like a soul link but on an extremely weak level
Then Rimuru realized that the Reiryoku in her body was being transmitted by that link and circulated back and forth between Rimuru and Shido, and Rimuru's remaining spiritual power was very little compared to the original level.
And right after that, Rimuru's spiritual ornament glowed and then disappeared
... Rimuru once again completely didn't understand what was going on
When Rimuru's clothes slowly disappeared, Rimuru realized it and shouted
" Hey!!! You can't look!!! " Rimuru
and immediately covered the SENSITIVE parts with her hand and told Ciel
<<Ciel! This is an emergency using 'space domination' to get me out of here>> Rimuru
<<yes master>> Ciel
As soon as Ciel finished Rimuru's words, she found herself teleported to a forest without a single person
Rimuru quickly used material Creation and created a jet-black kimono that Rimuru usually wears.
A cloud of black smoke appeared from Rimuru's body and surrounded Rimuru and gradually formed clothes.
After putting on her clothes, Rimuru started looking at the surrounding area
Rimuru is currently in a deserted forest, the moonlight is dimly shining down on the forest's vegetation.
After confirming the surroundings were safe, Rimuru was about to ask Ciel but heard Ciel muttering.
<<That bastard, I'll burn your soul, send you through the endless cycle of pain...>> Ciel
While Ciel seemed to be cursing in anger Rimuru ask Ciel
<<ahm...Ciel?>> Rimuru
<<yes master>> Ciel replied softly and her attitude changed so quickly
<<what did you say just now Ciel>> Rimuru
<<I didn't say anything because you misheard>> Ciel
<<ah...did I hear it wrong... but wait, this is a thought that can't be mistaken>> Rimuru
<< it's because you're so tired that you're hallucinating>> Ciel
hearing Ciel's excuses to this extent
Rimuru doesn't want to argue anymore
So Rimuru went straight to what she wanted to ask
<< by the way Ciel just now I felt a very weak connection with that guy, is that a seal>> Ciel
<<yes what you feel is called 'Path' a path that circulates spiritual energy between you and Itsuka Shido personally>> Ciel
<< and... to be able to set it up... he has to...>> Rimuru
<<yes master, just now when I realized what that guy was about to do, I tried to warn you but it didn't make it>> Ciel
<< what do you mean not in time? You can analyze an entire area in 1 second>> Rimuru
<< it's because you didn't use thought acceleration, master>> Ciel retorted
<<ah... it's my fault...>> Rimuru
Hearing a normal but fatal sentence from Ciel, Rimuru didn't know what else to say
Rimuru tried to think over all the details, but Rimuru saw that there were some things wrong, so he continued to ask Ciel.
<<hey if you hate me being kissed so much, then why did you turn me into a female and even create some atmosphere for us>>Rimuru
<< For me to be able to create a 'Path' between you and Shido there needs to be a certain love for each other and the fact that you're female will prevent you from saying 'I'm a boy in front of him>> Ciel
<< Wait don't tell me I have feelings for that guy>> Rimuru
Rimuru started to panic and think about all kinds of things but then Ciel spoke up again
<< no sir, the extent of your affection for him right now is only close to being friends, so it won't be possible to create a stable 'Path' so I enhanced it with a bit of magic to help circulate spiritual energy better>> Ciel
<<Oh that's it, Thank you, Miss Ciel. By the way, just now you said 'so that you can create, does that mean you can create 'path'>> Rimuru
<< Yes, I can use magic power to create something similar to 'Path' through a contract to transport spiritual energy, it still requires a certain affection between the owner and the other guy so Air is also a necessary part. but he acted without a plan so he had to change part>> Ciel
...hearing this, Rimuru doesn't know what to say to Ciel anymore
As for that Shido, Rimuru is going to fight him later
<< then everything is done, can you return my gender to normal? After all, the spiritual energy is sealed >> Rimuru
<<That's impossible because I don't like it>> Ciel said in a tone that sounded like she was joking
<<You...>> Rimuru was speechless after hearing that
Rimuru can transform herself into the creatures that Rimuru wanted at the superficial level
But when it comes to faking complex parts, Rimuru isn't very good at it, so all the control over gender is in Ciel's hands.
And now that is what Rimuru regrets
After thinking about all kinds of things for a while Rimuru looked up at the sky to escape reality
Above is a night sky with a dim full moon, surrounded by a forest with big trees
Rimuru lay down on the grass and asked Ciel
<<hey Ciel, this body of mine is almost human-like right>> Rimuru
<<yes, that's right master >> Ciel
<<ah~~ I'm feeling pretty tired anyway, I'll lie down for a bit and ask you to keep an eye on me>> Rimuru
<<Yes Master>> Ciel
After a while, Rimuru also fell asleep on the ground
After Ciel confirmed that the surroundings were completely safe she concealed Rimuru's presence and created a Void Barrier to protect her.
From the side of the sleeping Rimuru, a cloud of black smoke came out
That smoke gradually gathered to form the form of a human body and was also wearing the same clothes as Rimuru.
That body stood still for a moment and then started to move
That body quietly looked down at Rimuru who was sleeping soundly with red eyes and bowed and said
"Sleep well master"
Ciel said to the sleeping Rimuru that she created a clone with part of Rimuru's power and started teleporting somewhere leaving Rimuru still in a deep sleep not knowing what was going on.
---Shido POV--
After approaching to kiss Rimuru's lips
Rimuru's face showed surprise and confusion
Due to being so close, Shidou could see her golden eyes glittering in the night sky and the moonlight illuminating Rimuru's perfect face.
But before he could admire it for long, Shidou was pushed away by Rimuru
Despite her small body, it seems that Rimuru is unusually strong thanks to the power of the Spirit
Rimuru's push was strong enough to make Shidou fall and plop on the ground
When he lookup
Shidou saw Rimuru's clothes suddenly glow
Then Rimuru's clothes disappeared to reveal Rimuru's naked body
Shidou looked at Rimuru who was trying to cover all the exposed parts of her body with her hands
When Shidou saw that scene, his cheeks turned red and he couldn't take his eyes off Rimuru
Suddenly a voice came from Rimuru
"Hey!!! You can't look!!!"
Rimuru's angry voice startled Shidou
Shidou quickly covered his eyes with his hand and looked down at the ground
After a long time without hearing what Rimuru said, Shidou didn't dare open his eyes nor look up to see
A voice came up in Shidou's ear
<<hey open your eyes, she's gone>> Kotori
"What..."
Shidou involuntarily said that and looked up at the place Rimuru was looking for Rimuru just now, but couldn't find it
" Where is Rimuru Kotori " Shido
<<I don't know>> Kotori
" What does that mean? " Shido
<< you just get on the ship, you'll see if you watch the video>> Kotori
" ...umm " Shido
---Somewhere---
The room is full of computers that display the data and charts of the spirits and are very well guarded
One soldier said to the commander
" Reports detected a spiritual effect in this area but just disappeared," said the soldier
On the main screen in the room, a large map appears and there is a red mark right in the specified area
The commander looked at the map for a while and then made a decision
" Fire medium-range missiles " Commander
After thinking for a while, the commander decided to fire regardless of whether the Spirit was still there or not
" Sure," said the soldier and then started talking to someone over the radio
---Shido POV---
After talking with Kotori
Shidou was just about to go to the designated place to be able to teleport onto the Fraxinus when he heard a notification from his headset.
<< An incoming missile alert >> Kannazuki
<< why is there a missile here, the sign of spiritual energy should have disappeared >> Shido
While still wondering, Shidou heard a familiar voice in the distance
"Zadkiel" ???
Immediately, Shidou's surroundings were covered with ice forming a dome that shielded Shidou
The rocket was also very fast as soon as the ice dome was completed it rushed towards where Shidou was standing
"BOOM!!!!"
After the rocket hit the target thanks to the thick layer of ice, Shidou was fine
Right now, in the far distance, 2 figures are running towards Shidou
It's Tohka and Yoshino
" Shido"
"Mr Shido "
Tohka and Yoshino said while running to Shidou's side Seeing the two Shidou gave reassured them
After the three of them met, Shidou quickly took both Tohka and Yoshino's hands and ran to the designated place and teleported.
After boarding the Fraxinus, Shidou turned to Tohka and Yoshino
" Thank you so much for being here, but why did you two come here? Didn't I tell you to wait at home " Shidou
At this time, Yoshino used her hand shyly to pull the hem of Shidou's shirt and said in a soft voice
" ...we haven't seen you for a long time, so we feel very worried " Yoshino
At this moment, the puppet Yoshinon on the other hand spoke up
" Whoa, Shidou, you were just saved by these guys and now you want to turn around and scold us? " Yoshinon
At this moment, Shidou turned his gaze to Tohka who had been silent until now
Tohka was standing with her arms crossed to the side
Seeing that, Shidou turned to talk to Tohka
" And you too, thank you for taking care of me. " Shido
Hearing this Tohka seemed happier but still managed to maintain a cold expression
" Nothing " Tohka
Seeing Tohka like that Shidou smiled and said
" Okay then let's go to the control room, Kotori is waiting for us " Shido
""yes"" Tohka and Yoshino said
After reaching the control room
On the main screen, there was a video recording of the time when Shidou was approaching Rimuru Seeing that scene Tohka spoke up
" Hey Shidou, is that a new spirit again? " Tohka
" Yes, she is a spirit that appeared recently and as far as we know, her name is Rimuru ." Kotori
Kotori sat on the commander's seat as if already aware of their presence, Kotori spoke up before Shidou could answer Tohka.
At this time, Yoshino next to her covered her eyes and said
" ahhh... Shido kissed her " said Yoshino softly
Everyone's attention is on the screen
when shido turned to Tohka and could feel the killing intent emanating from Tohka's body
Right now Shidou felt fear Yoshinon in Yoshino's hand said " Wow, you're so brave. "
While everyone was in a frenzy, Kotori spoke up
" Okay let's focus on the next paragraph, this is the part we need to pay special attention to " Kotori
people started paying attention to the screen
at this moment Rimuru pushed away Shidou and the clothes on Rimuru's body gradually disappeared
After Rimuru la Shidou finished, Shidou covered his face and turned his face to the ground at the same time Rimuru completely disappeared.
" What is this? " Shido
" We don't understand how she can disappear like this " Kotori
" There are signs of space bending around but no spiritual energy is emitted," said Kannazuki beside Kotori.
While Shidou was still dumbfounded because he didn't understand what was going on, Kotori spoke up
" And that's all we have right now we don't know anything else so let's take them home first," Kotori said looking at Tohka and Yoshino.
So Kotori, Shido, Tohka and Yoshino all went home together
As soon as they got home, it started to rain
They Go to the door of Shidou's house, open the door and go in first
Entering Shido's house, inside the kitchen was a silhouette of a person sitting on a chair, it was a blue-haired girl wearing the same outfit that Rimuru wore when she first appeared.
" Rimuru? " Shidou said involuntarily
Hearing Shido's voice, Kotori, Tohka and Yoshino both approached Shido to look at the figure together.
That girl slowly turned her face to look at Shidou
" Rimuru how did you come... " Shidou asked but stopped as soon as he saw the face of the person sitting in the kitchen.
The appearance is completely the same as Rimuru but the face is completely expressionless, and the pupils are red instead of golden colour.
That girl looked straight at Shidou and said with an expressionless voice
" Hello, I am Rimuru-sama's loyal servant Ciel. Thank you for sealing my master's spiritual energy. " Ciel
That girl identified herself as Ciel and called Rimuru her master
Hearing that, Shidou froze
The girl in front of her continued to talk with an expressionless face but her voice had a scary tone
"To thank you I will give you 3 choices Soul,
Memory, Or Life, Choose one and I will free you from one of what you choose" Ciel said with a cold expression on her face.
~End~
***
