I am the emperor of Mengwang

"Haha~~"

Rimuru chuckled twice in disdain.

After today, she will return to the Demon Federation. She doesn't believe that the king of the Silver Gulasia Kingdom would dare to attack the Demon Federation.

But... it's not a good idea to leave such a trouble behind. When Diablo comes back, I'll leave this matter to him.

After all, professional matters need to be done by professionals.

Just like that, the council meeting ended with an extremely shocking scene.

As for the so-called joining of the council, the result was nothing.

But Rimuru was very sure that these countries would beg to cooperate with the Demon Federation and even beg to become the Demon Federation's partners or even allies.

It’s not only because the Demon Federation has technology that’s ahead of its time, but also because of its powerful strength.

Two demon kings and a dragon, which country? Which force? Can have such strength?

This is an existence that is enough to sweep away any force.

The parliamentarians were not overly surprised by the deaths of Prince Elric of the Ingrassia Kingdom and Duke Gama.

After all, the Demon King is such a 'powerful' and 'brutal' existence, so how did Duke Jiama and Elric do it? !

Fight against and insult the Demon King, or even want to keep him as a pet!

You are courting death, what are you? You deserve to die!

It's a pity for this review meeting.

But they will not give up cooperation with the Demon Federation. Since they cannot become colleagues, it is also good to become partners.

After the council meeting ended, Souei, who was tracking down the killer, appeared in front of Rimuru and others, dragging the body of a man in a black cloak.

Also appearing with it was a sniper rifle that was extremely inconsistent with this world.

And Souei's efficiency directly exceeded Rimuru's expectations. Not only did he eliminate the killer, he also obtained the intelligence.

This efficiency... is amazing!

Rimuru couldn't help but give a thumbs up to Souei for his high efficiency.

After Souei's report, Rimuru also directly understood who was the mastermind behind this time. It was none other than Granbell, the leader of the former Seven Stars and the patriarch of the Rozo clan, the former Hero of Light, and his granddaughter, Mariabell, who was known as "lustful".

This sniper rifle that is inconsistent with the world was also copied. As for the copied object (the dead Glenda), she was already dead. The man's skills were also extremely powerful and related to space. Even Souei felt a little tricky during the killing process, but in the end the result was a good kill.

The third piece of news is that Yuuki Kagurazaka, one of Shizuka's students and the current leader of the Free Union, whom Rimuru had previously suspected, was indeed not wrong.

But according to the intelligence, Yuuki Kagurazaka was controlled by 'Greedy Maria'.

But when Rimuru heard this information, he felt that there was something strange about it!? He even had a slight disbelief.

Rimuru is skeptical about the news that Yuuki Kagurazaka is being controlled by Mariabell.

After hearing all the information, Rimuru no longer delayed here with Souei, Benimaru and the others, but headed directly back to his home, the Demonic Federation.

After all, the Council was completely ruined, and Rimuru and the others had nothing to do, so what were they doing if they didn't go back?

And the most important point is that before leaving, Mo Li had told her that "Ruota" was going to "awaken", so Rimuru was extremely curious and wanted to go back to see the situation of Brother Dragon King.

Let's see whether he has awakened successfully, or if he has awakened successfully, and how much his strength has increased.

Just like that, with the help of space teleportation and magic circles, Rimuru, Benimaru and others quickly returned to the Demonic Federation.

Rimuru used the skill of 'Magic Detection' to effortlessly find where Mo Li was.

However, now Mo Li is with a powerful being who is somewhat familiar but also has a faint strange aura.

But Rimuru couldn't care less and rushed directly towards the direction where Mo Li was.

At the same time, Mo Li, who was still playing chess and drinking tea with Ruota, seemed to sense that Rimuru had returned, and slowly placed the teacup in his hand on the plate beside him.

"It looks like he's back."

Mo Luo's light words immediately brought Ruo Tuo back to his senses while he was scratching his head and worrying about how to place the next chess piece.

“…Rimuru-chan is back!”

Ruota said with some surprise. Obviously, he did not expect Rimuru to come back so soon. He knew that Rimuru was going to attend the council of western countries, but he did not expect that the council would end so quickly.

It’s not even three or four days to come back and forth!

"Bang----------------"

With a bang, a beautiful girl in a black windbreaker rushed in. The moment the girl saw Mo Li sitting on the sofa, her golden pupils were filled with joy.

He pounced directly towards Mo Li.

"Ali, I'm back!!!"

Looking at Rimuru who threw himself into his arms, Mo Li's face was full of helplessness, but the doting look in his eyes was hard to conceal.

It was like this every time. If Rimuru hadn't seen him for a day or two, he would definitely jump into his arms when they met again.

Ruo Tuo, who was sitting on the sofa opposite, looked at Mo Li's helpless expression and burst into laughter.

Only little sister Rimuru can make Morax so helpless.

No, there is also that “little girl” called Milim.

Rimuru, who was trying hard to absorb the "Ali Energy", also noticed Ruota who was sitting on the sofa opposite and laughing.

You don’t know until you see it. When Rimuru saw it, he was really scared.

Because in Rimuru's perception, the aura emitted by Rota is extremely terrifying. Maybe the amount of magic energy in Rota is not as much as Veldora, but the danger it brings to Rimuru is far greater than Veldora.

You have to know that Veldora is a terrifying existence of "natural disaster level" standing at the top of this world.

In Rimuru's perception, Rota at this moment was only slightly inferior to her Ali, Guy, and the few remaining Milim.

Others, no! Even those demon kings could not be compared with Ruotu at this moment.

Even the dragon species called the 'Scorching Dragon' seen in the tournament and the 'White Ice Dragon' beside Guy could not surpass Ruotu at this moment.

This is... "awakening" was successful!

"So strong!"

Rimuru couldn’t help but say this in a daze.

At this time, the [King of Wisdom] in Rimuru's mind, which was the 'ultimate skill', was also extremely shocked when he saw Ruota.

Because in her investigation, Ruota at this time was a little unreasonably strong and just as unreasonable as Morax.

Thinking of Roda's somewhat mysterious life experience, and the fact that the [King of Games] had once collaborated with her, the [King of Wisdom] was already certain that the Roda Dragon King before him was the product of Morax and the [King of Games].

It’s really...unusual!

[The King of Wisdom] couldn’t help but exclaim in amazement inside Rimuru’s body.

After lying in Mo Li's arms for a while, Rimuru was put down by Mo Li and began to tell Mo Li and Ruota about the annoying things that happened at the council meeting.

"Bang----------------"

After Rimuru finished speaking, there was a loud bang and the tabletop cracked.

“Damn it! How dare a small human nation threaten little sister Rimuru? Morax, don’t stop me this time. I will make this small nation pay a heavy price!”

Ruo Tuo shouted at Mo Li with an angry look on his face.

Mo Li looked at the shattered table, the overturned chessboard, and the teacup that had fallen to the ground, and fell into silence.

He seriously suspected that this guy Ruota did it on purpose.

Forget it.

Thinking of this, a hint of helplessness flashed across Mo Li's eyes, and then he began to think about what Rimuru had said.

"Okay. Ruota, don't worry."

Mo Li replied calmly, then turned his gaze to Rimuru, who was still staring at his abdominal muscles.

"I think Rimuru has already made his own plan."

Although Mo Li's words were plain, they were full of certainty. Based on his understanding of Rimuru, once he was sure that the other party was an enemy, Rimuru would not hold back.

"Hehe~~, Ali still understands me."

After hearing what Mo Li said, Rimuru pulled a cute smile at the corner of his mouth and said something with "bad intentions".

"Yes! I already have a plan, so...Brother Ruota, I won't bother you this time."

Rimuru said to Ruota with great gratitude.

“Is that so?! All right then. Rimuru-chan, when you need my help, don’t hesitate to help me, got it? It’s just a pity that you haven’t had a chance to show off your skills since you just awakened!”

When Ruota heard that Rimuru had a plan, he was not too persistent, but there was a hint of loss in his words.

He just woke up and wanted to show off his skills once more?! Alas, what a pity!

Looking at Ruota's expression, Rimuru felt a little reluctant, but he still resisted the urge to speak.

After all, professionals do professional things.

And it is obvious that Ruota is not professionally related to this matter.

After all, although Diablo is a bit mysterious, he still knows his limits.

But as for Rota,... Rimuru seriously doubted that if she handed this matter over to Rota, it would be possible that more than just the Ingrassia Kingdom would suffer.

The entire Western countries will definitely be in trouble!

There is no way! The current Ruotu is... too strong!

Anyway, Rimuru is not sure about Rota's strength now.

So it would be more reassuring to leave it to Diablo.

After a brief chat, Rota decided not to be a light bulb for his younger sister Rimuru and Stone. He simply waved his hand and left to find Veldora.

After the awakening of Ruota and the Western Council, the Demonic Federation fell into peace again.

After all, Rimuru is not Old Deng like Mo Li, and he does not have Mo Li's mentality of retirement.

It is even more impossible to live a life of "a cup of tea, a play, and sitting for the whole day".

In this way, Rimuru directly found the invitation from Kagurazaka Yuuki's secretary, Kagalli (Kazareem), to investigate the ruins during his official duties.

It is called an investigation, but in fact it is just adventure, archaeology, and treasure hunting.

During the peaceful days in the Demonic Federation, Milim, who was captured by Frey and brought back to the Dragon City, escaped again under the close surveillance of "Mother Fu".

After arriving at the Demonic Federation, I was so happy and excited! I dragged Rimuru and Ramiris to the Demonic Federation and went crazy for several days.

But it will make the child feel depressed!

However, after hearing that Rimuru was going to investigate the ruins, he excitedly signed up.

Ruins investigation!? Isn't this just going out on an adventure? How could such a fun thing be without Milim!

In this way, the team for the ruins exploration became:

Rimuru, Shion, Milim.

But after hearing this, Mo Li recalled Ruo Tuo's words not long ago that he wanted to show off his skills, so Mo Li directly kicked Ruo Tuo out of the team.

After all, Mo Li knew that the exploration of the ruins this time was not that simple.

According to the original plot, during this exploration of the ruins, Rimuru and his friends will encounter the fifth "Dragon" in the world, who was also Milim's childhood friend.

Gaia, the "Earth Dragon".

In addition, they will encounter the "greedy" Mariabell and Kagurazaka Yuuki, who had just plotted against Rimuru and the Demonic Federation not long ago.

Mo Li was a little confused about the current plot development, but he was not too worried.

After all... strength is his confidence.

There is no one in the entire continent who can be a match for Mo Li.

But there was no guarantee that something unexpected would happen. For Rimuru's safety, Mo Li decided to send Ruota out.

With Milim and Rota, two top-notch 'disaster-level' powerful beings here, there shouldn't be any accidents.

In addition, Ruotu has just awakened, so it would be a good idea to let him test his current strength with the 'Chaos Dragon' (the predecessor of the Earth Emperor Dragon).

And because of "caution", Mo Li also left a coordinate on Rimuru and gave her a "talisman". Whenever Rimuru encountered something he couldn't solve, he could sense it by tearing Mo Li apart and come directly to him.

And just like that, the day for investigating the ruins soon arrived.

At this time, Rimuru and the other three were already ready and able to go at any time.

Just to show off, Ruota wore a handsome mask, saying that it was to enhance his mystery.

Cagalli and Yuuki Kagurazaka, the leaders of this trip, are also outside the Demon Federation City.

Yuuki Kagurazaka did not reveal any flaws. He briefly introduced Cagalli, gave her a few more instructions, and then left the Demonic Federation.

After all, this place is too dangerous, and he still has plans to implement, so it is not convenient for him to stay for long.

When Yuuki Kagurazaka saw Rota again, he was a little confused about Rota's identity. After all, Rota was wearing a mask. In addition, after awakening, Rota's appearance and temperament had changed a little, so he didn't recognize him.

But because of his eagerness, Yuuki Kagurazaka didn't take it seriously. It was just an exploration of the ruins, and there were already two demon kings, Rimuru and Milim, so he shouldn't be an important person.

Just like that, Ruoda was directly ignored by Yuuki Kagurazaka.

And when Cagalli saw that her boss didn't say anything, she didn't care too much either.

Just like that, the ruins exploration (adventure) officially began.

PS: Here is today’s chapter.

I'm sorry, everyone. I've been feeling really bad these past few days. My cold hasn't healed and it's getting worse. I had a high fever in the middle of the night and went to the hospital and found out I had the flu.

So there was one missing update yesterday. This chapter of 4,000 words makes up for yesterday's chapter.

Dear readers, please just read this chapter for now. I will continue writing and see if I can update normally today!
