The flow of Rimuru's journey was effortless. He had made quite the noticible change within the Great forest of Jura.
Upon escaping the cave, he had meet a village of goblins and saved them from a pack of direwolves.
Naturally, he didn't mention either Veldora not Pneuma as that might cause an unnecessary uproar
Now both the direwolves and the goblins are serving him, although there was something he had to address first, "Hi great sage, what was that move I used earlier against the direwolves?"
Last night when defending the sorry-excuse-for-a-village, he had devoured and transformed into the the direwolves leader.
When he used Coersion on the rest of the pack to scare them away. The sound waves produced had created electrical currents within to make a far better paralyzing effect.
{Conclusion: Common skill, Coersion was powered up by the use of Chaotrons}
'Chaotrons? What are those? Is that something for slimes only?' Rimuru was stunned by this new power that he unknowingly had.
{Negative, Chaotrons have nothing to do with being a slime. Chaotrons or chaos particles are fundamental particles that influence the world with chaos and randomness}
'What the hell, where did I find something like this?!'
{Notice: Chaotrons originate from the God of chaos Pneuma. The most likely conclusion is that he gifted it to you upon your last meeting with him.}
…
'Thats just great. He gave me destruction² over here when all I want to do is live a peaceful life.'
Rimuru decided to put his own complaining on the back burner and address the issue with the goblins, architecture and construction.
"Hey Rigurd, is there any nations that you guys do trading with?"
"Why yes sir, we sometimes do trade with the Dwarven nation of Dwargon. A nation comprised of Dwarves and elves."
"Elves!?" Rimuru began drooling over the sheer depravity going through his brain.
————————————————
And with that Rimuru had made his way to Dwargon with an envoy of goblins and direwolves.
Rimuru along with Gonna had created a massive commotion in direwolf form and was now in prison.
"So that's everything that happened?" The guard asked the slime in the barrel who was retelling his accounts of things.
Gobta had completely fallen asleep and was now hanging upside down in a cocoon of spider silk.
Suddenly a bunch of guards had come and complained about an attack to the guard captain known as Kaidou and that they were short on healing potions.
"What the hell do we do now?" Kaidou was helpless in figuring out the solution, until he felt a tap onto his shoulder.
"Is this what you were looking for?" The slime had climbed out of the barrel which was now filled with high-grade healing potions.
"Woah, um… thank you!" And so Kaidou left in haste with the potions.
————————————————
And so came the return trip of three dwarves to express their gratitude. The slime needing something in return asked for a skilled artisan, the entire reason he came to Dwargon in the first place.
The trio showed him to the blacksmith that is Kaijin. Kaijin told Rimuru about his dilemma and needed to finish his impossible commission.
Rimuru, ever the broken protagonist, devoured the one completed magisteel sword and replicated it twenty times over.
Kaijin was so grateful that he invited Rimuru to a midnight bar filled with elves. An invitation that Rimuru wouldn't refuse for the world.
——————Eden———————
"So despite the fact I completed the magisoldier project from them and gave it to them for nothing in return. Vesta still screws Kaijin over in the end." I said to myself while looking at the slime and dwarves through the grayfog.
As I used the grayfog to survey the history of Dwargon from after I gave them the golems.
Apparently I had made a grievous error, the use of the five magisoldiers was everything the project wanted.
Unfortunately, five was the most that they could've had. The magisoldiers, although perfectly replicated the outward appearance, the inward circuitry was far too advanced and complicated.
Evens when taking it apart piece by piece, the programming was so complex that they couldn't evens figure out how to put it back together.
All-in-all, Kaijin suffered not only demotion and loss of status but also nationwide humiliation, far more than he did in the original.
According to Kaijin story that he told to Rimuru, the magisteel golems that they got was officially declared as successful creations by Kaijin. Unofficially, they were ancient relics givin by Pneuma.
Only Gazel, Kaijin and Vesta knew the unofficial reason.
Vesta had used the incident to publicly shame Kaijin and due to the damage already done, Gazel was forced to destroy Kaijin.
Bad news, Kaijin will most likely face a much harsher punishment without an alternative. And Rimuru will most likely face punishment as well.
Good news, I can leverage my reputation to give them some leeway.
————————————————
Facing the court, three dwarves and a slime were in chains and yet they were on the disadvantage due to having their own lawyer paid off.
Gazel didn't want to lose a good man like Kaijin but he had no choice, "Kaijin I sentence you to g-"
"AHHHH! Wait!" A scream was heard outside and before anyone could prepare themselves.
A women came through with flowing pink hair and cerulean blue eyes.
She was wearing a light, strapless, off-the-shoulder floor-length gown that emphasized her sophisticated appearance. Separate, ruffled sleeves that start around the mid-upper arm, leaving her shoulders bare.
She had high heeled slippers on that just improved her elegance.
Seeing the arrival, Rimuru was speechless by her appearance, the beauty of the elves from before paled in comparison to the beauty of this individual.
"Who are you to dare disturb the hero kings court!?" One of the ministers furiously roared at the intruder.
The women was calm facing the outrage of the man and just chuckled, "Apologies for the sudden intrusion. Allow me to introduce myself, I am Yuura." Yuura elegantly bowed while lifting her gown.
