(Intro)

https://youtu.be/sjVbePnSFTw

Sasuke, Rimuru, and their friends follow the Ameld River north in search of artisans who can make clothing and houses for the goblins. They're heading to Dwargon, the Kingdom of the Dwarves. Sasuke and Rimuru were accompanied by Rigur and two other goblins, and Gobta, who says he's been to Dwargon before, is their guide. The Tempest Wolves run as fast as the wind.

After a long day of traveling, they stopped and rest near a river.

Rimuru: Rigur-kun, who give your brother his name?

Rigur: Sir! I was told he received his name from a passing Demon named Lord Gelmud. He saw promise in him.

Rimuru: Gel...?

Sasuke: It's Gelmud. It's not that hard to pronounce the name, Rimuru.

Rigur: He's an officer in the Demon Lord's army.

Rimuru: Oh...

Sasuke starts mumbling at his own words while Rimuru and Rigur didn't hear it.

Sasuke: *mumbles* Demon Lord's army...? There are Demon Lords...? I always wanted to meet one in real life after reading about them. It might even be a great idea to add Demon Lord characters to my own story! No, that can wait for now.

Rimuru saw Ranga drinking water from the river as Ranga notices and looks at Rimuru.

Ranga: Sir!

Rimuru: Sasuke-kun and I killed your father, which means you should want revenge, right? Don't you think about that at all?

Ranga sits down.

Ranga: I do think about it. But, Master, you not only spared us after defeating us in the battle, you also give us a new name. I have only gratitude toward you, and no resentment at all. Our loyalty belongs to you and you alone, Master.

(The Next Day)

As the sun goes down, they stopped and rest.

Sasuke: Gobta.

Gobta: Yes, sir?

Sasuke: The kingdom we are heading to, what's it like?

Gobta: W-Well...It's officially called the "Armed Nation of Dwargon". It's a beautiful city constructed from a modified nation natural cave system, and it's home to not only dwarves, but elves, humans, and lots more.

Rimuru: Elves?!

Rimuru was now in his world of imagination while Sasuke was paying attention to Gobta.

Gobta: The dwarf king, Gazel Dwargo, is known as the Hero King. He's deeply admired by all the people. 

Sasuke: I see.

Sasuke looks over to Rimuru who was still in his imagination.

Rimuru: Elves...Elves...

Inner Sasuke: *sweatdropped* Hey, hey, Rimuru sounds like a perverted old man if he says it like that...

Rigur: Great Rimuru?

Sasuke chops Rimuru on top of his slimehead, and it made him snapped out of his thoughts and turns to Rigur.

Rimuru: I-Is it okay for monsters like me to enter Dwargon?

Rigur: No need to worry. Dwargon is a neural free trade city. All fighting is prohibited by the king.

Rimuru: I see...

Rigur: And that's made possible by the Armed Nation of Dwargon's immense military might. It's said that the dwarven army has been undefeated for a thousand years. 

Rimuru: A thousand years? That's impressive!

Gobta: Last time I went there, they picked a fight with me outside the gate-

Rigur: *smiles*There won't be any trouble!

Sasuke and Rimuru thought Rigur raised a death flag.

Sasuke: H-Hey, Rigur...

Rigur turns to Sasuke.

Rigur: Yes, sir?

Sasuke: Please ...Don't raise death flags easily.

Rigur: What?!

(Three days later...)

With the help of Ranga and his packmates, they traversed the same distance in just three days. And then they saw...the Armed Nation of Dwargon.

Sasuke: So that's Dwargon, huh?

Sasuke, Rimuru, and the others were gathered at the forest and discuss what their plan is.

Rigur: Are you sure you want to go in with just Gobta and Sir Sasuke, Great Rimuru?

Rimuru: Yeah, we don't want to draw too much attention by going in a big group. I'll take Sasuke-kun and Gobta along to show me the way.

Rigur: But...

Gobta: We'll be fine!

Ranga: Master...Sir Sasuke...

Sasuke: Don't worry, everyone. We will be back safely, so wait here for us. It's a promise.

Rigur: Please be careful.

___________________________________________________

Sasuke, Rimuru, and Gobta were now in a line waiting for them to go in.

Rimuru: This is quite a line.

Sasuke: Was Dwargon always this strict?

Gobta: Not much, sir. Once we're inside, we can move around as we please, though.

"Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!"

Sasuke+Rimuru+Gobta: Hm?

Sasuke, Rimuru, and Gobta turned around and sees five adventurers walking towards them.

"What's a couple of monsters doing here?"

"We're not inside yet, so we can kill it, right?"

Sasuke: Well, looks like we're going to have lots of trouble right now...

Rimuru: Hey, Gobta-kun. Did you hear something?

Gobta: Yes, I did...I was beat up here last time I tried to get in, too. It's fate for us weak monsters.

Sasuke: Fate... huh?

"Hey, weakling monster! Don't you ignore us!"

"Wait, isn't taking a slime pretty rare? I bet we could make a fortune off of it!"

Rimuru: Gobta-kun. What's our first rule in our village?

Gobta salutes.

Gobta: Of course, sir! Rule number one: No attacking humans!

Rimuru: All right, now, close your eyes and cover your ears.

Sasuke: Actually, you should probably cover them up because I have a feeling that things are gonna get crazy here.

Gobta: Got it, sir!

Gobta then covers his ears and closes his eyes.

Rimuru walks up to the adventurers and confronts them.

Rimuru: Hey there. I'm a generous sort, so I'll spare you if you leave now. Get out of here.

"Tch! You're just a puny, little weakling monster! Don't you mess with us!"

"You're dead now! I was gonna let you live, but you've pissed us off!" 

Rimuru: A puny, little weakling monster? Are you referring to me?

"Who else would you be referring to?!"

Rimuru: Oh? Do I look like a slime to you? Kekeke...How long have you had the mistaken idea that I'm a slime? Allow me to show you my true form!

Rimuru then transforms into a Tempest Star Wolf. And wait...Did his Mimic Skill evolve?

"Heh. You just changed your appearance!"

"Did you think you could scare us off with that?!"

Rimuru: Good grief...All right, fine! Come at me!

"Heh. Now you die!"

Then the Companions C.D.E appeared behind the two adventurers.

Sasuke: They brought allies? What is this? Avengers: Infinity War? Wait, or is it Endgame?

"Take this!"

"Slash Attack!"

"Heavy-Hitting Cut!"

"Fireball!"

"Magic Wall!"

They thought they hit Rimuru, but their attacks didn't have any effect on him. Rimuru felt like he was bitten by a small ant.

"I-Impossible!"

"My Fireball..."

"His fur is so tough..."

Rimuru: Did you guys just do something?

Inner Rimuru: Yikes! I thought they were gonna kill me! Mimicry is amazing.

Rimuru: Now it's my turn...

Rimuru activates his skill "Menace" as he lets out a huge growl and creates a shock wave around him.

Rimuru: RAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!

Rimuru then sends the adventurers flying far away from Dwargon.

Rimuru stops growling and sweatdrops.

Sasuke: Hey, hey, Rimuru. Isn't that a bit too much?

"Hey!"

Sasuke+Rimuru: ?!

Sasuke and Rimuru turn their heads and see Dwargon guardians running towards them.

"You there!"

Rimuru quickly turns back to his original slime form and the Dwargon guardians arrived and see a blue slime on top of Sasuke's head.

"A slime?"

The Dwargonguardian looks at Sasuke.

"Hey, you. Is this slime your pet?"

Sasuke: Uh... Yeah. Something like that.

Inner Rimuru: Since when did I become your pet?!

"Well, whatever. How about you two give us an explanation once we bring you, your slime, and your goblin friend to the dungeon?"

Sasuke: O-Okay.

(Timeskip)

(Dwargon Dungeon)

Sasuke, Rimuru, and Gobta were in the Dwargon dungeon while Gobta was asleep. Sasuke and Rimuru told the dwarf guardian, Kaido about everything about what happened.

Kaido: Well?

Sasuke: That's all.

Kaido: Well, since they saw your pet slime and your goblin friend, they probably saw them as easy targets.

Rimuru: I was only trying to scare them off, really...

Sasuke: We apologize for all the trouble.

Kaido: Well, what you've said agrees with witness reports. Just his once, I'll let you three-

"Captain! We've got trouble!"

Kaido turns his head and sees the Dwarf guardian.

"There's an Armorsaurus in the mine!"

Kaido: What?! Where's the suppression force?!

"They're already en route, but Garm and his brothers were deep in the mine gathering magic ore and they were badly hurt!"

Kaido: Do we have potions?

"Not enough. We've allotted most of them to war preparations."

Kaido: Those guys are like brothers to me! We can't waste time! Start looking for potions!

Rimuru: Sir...

Kaido: Gather all you can, whatever it takes!

Rimuru: Sir.

Kaido felt a tap on his shoulder as he turns around and sees Rimuru out of the cage already.

Kaido: Huh?! Why did you leave your cell?!

Rimuru: Now, now, this isn't the time for that, is it? Look.

Rimuru then points at the barrel filled with his healing potion.

Kaido: What's that?

Rimuru: Healing potion. The best around! You can drink it or apply it directly!

Sasuke: Eh?! You can make healing potions?! I didn't know you could do that!

Kaido: Huh?

Rimuru: Why not give it a try?

Kaido: ...

Kaido started to reflect and a few seconds later, he opens the door cell and grabs the barrel.

"Captain?! You're gonna trust the word of a monster?!"

Kaido: We don't have time! Let's go! *turns to Rimuru* You'd better stay in your cell.

Kaido and the Dwarf guardian then left the dungeon leaving Sasuke, Rimuru, and Gobta all alone.

Rimuru: He really was worried about his subordinates...

Sasuke: Well, time for me to get some rest.

Sasuke takes a nap while Rimuru minds his own business.

(Timeskip)

After waiting for a while, Kaido and three Dwarves arrived in the dungeon.

Kaido: You saved them. I thank you.

Sasuke: We're glad you are all looking very well.

"I hear you gave that potion! Thank you!"

Rimuru: Don't mention it.

"My arm was nearly ripped off. Even if I'd survived, I've would've lost my job! Thank you!"

Rimuru: You're very welcome.

"Hm, hm, hm."

Inner Rimuru: Say something!

"Really, thank you so much."

"We owe you!"

"Hm, hm."

The three dwarves left the dungeon as Kaido unlocks and opens the cell door.

Sasuke: Are we free?

Kaido: Naturally.

(Timeskip)

(Waiting room)

Kaido: I've never seen such a remarkable potion before. It won't be enough to thank you, but if you two ever need anything, just ask me.

Sasuke: *bows*Thank you very much.

Rimuru: In that case...

Kaido: Hm?

_____________________________________________

Sasuke and Rimuru told Kaido everything about why they come to Dwargon and what their purpose was.

Kaido: I see. In that case, I'll introduce you two the two skilled blacksmiths.

Rimuru: We'd appreciate that.

Sasuke: *bows* Thank you for your help.

Kaido: No need for thanks! Just leave it to me!

(Next Day)

Sasuke and Rimuru looked around the kingdom. The kingdom was not huge, but they were so many people, monsters, and they even use technology!

Sasuke: Whoa! Amazing! This place is huge!

Rimuru: I can tell I'm in dwarven country! It looks so much more civilized than the Goblin village.

Kaido: This way. Don't get lost, now.

Rimuru jumps on Sasuke's head while they were following Kaido and went inside an armory shop.

Sasuke+Rimuru: Wow!

Sasuke: Such detailed workmanship! 

Sasuke and Rimuru noticed a shining sword on the wall.

Rimuru: What's with that sword Is it actually shining?! is it magic?!

Sasuke: Does it really have magic in it?

Kaido: Yeah, right there. It's those guys who made that. The blacksmiths we're about to meet.

Kaido then takes them to the blacksmith shop.

Kaido: This is the place. I guarantee their skills are top-notch! Hey, Bro, Calix, you here?

Sasuke+Rimuru: Bro?

Sasuke, Rimuru, and Kaido walk into the blacksmith room and as they walk in, they see a man trying to forge a sword with his muscles, and a young human male examining the magic sword.

"Hey, Kaido. Give me a sec."

"Hold on. I'll be right there."

Kaido: Sure.

Sasuke: Then please excuse us.

Rimuru: Forgive us for interrupting.

Kaido: This is my brother, Kaijin. And that over there is our talented human blacksmith, Calix Vernistel.

As they watch Kaijin and Calix still working on the swords, three dwarves from the dungeon walk into the room and they couldn't believe who they are seeing.

Kaijin looks at the slime.

Kaijin: A slime? *looks at the dwarves* A friend of yours boys?

Garm: Kaijin, this is the slime we told you about.

Dord: The one that saved us when we were hurt yesterday.

Dyrd: Hm Hm.

Kaijin walks in front of Rimuru as he sits down and bows to him.

Kaijin: You have my thanks.

Rimuru: Oh, really, it was nothing... or, maybe it was?

Calix stands up and walked towards Sasuke and Rimuru.

Calix: So, what can we do for you?

Sasuke: Well...

________________________________________________

Sasuke and Rimuru explained everything to Kaijin and Calix about why they come to his workshop and they understood their story.

Kaijin: I see. I get what you two are saying. But I'm sorry... We're pretty backed up at the moment.

Calix: Thanks to the impossible order a certain numskull minister put in...

Sasuke+Rimuru: Impossible order?

Kaijin: We might be going to war soon, so he asked us to make twenty longswords... by the end of the week, no less.

Calix: Which is impossible to make with only two blacksmiths. And we're short on materials, so we've only made two so far.

Kaido: Then, couldn't you have told him it's impossible and refused?

Sasuke: He does have a point.

Kaijin: Don't be stupid. We did tell him that, at first. But then that damned Minister Vesta said "My, my, that great Kaijin that everyone calls the best blacksmith around can't handle such a simple task?"

Calix: And not only that, but he also said this in my face "And a young man like you who dreams to become a great swordsmith and you couldn't even make a powerful magic sword on time." That man really pisses me off.

Kaijin: He had the nerve to say that! Could you have let that slide?! That bastard!

Rimuru: You say you're short on materials?

Kaijin: Yeah, I need a special ore called magic ore. We were trying to dig some up yesterday...but that Armorsaurus showed up. 

Myrd: Hm Hm.

RImuru: I see.

Garm: But that mine was pretty cleared out, anyway.

Dord: There wasn't any ore left.

Myrd: Hm Hm.

Kaijin: And even if we did have the materials, it takes two weeks to make twenty swords. Yet we have to get them to the king in five days. 

Calix: They contracted smiths all over the kingdom and allotted the work to all of us. If we can't do it, our certification as smiths could be revoked. 

Kaido: Bro...

Sasuke: This is a big problem...

Rimuru: That really sucks...

Inner Rimuru: ...Wait...Magic ore? Don't I have some of that back then?!

Rimuru: HeheheheHahahahahaha!!!

Sasuke, Calix, and the dwarves were confused about why Rimuru was laughing.

Kaijin: Hm?

Calix: Why are you laughing?

Sasuke: What is it, Rimuru?

Rimuru: Hey, you two

Rimuru spits out a magic ore from his slime body and Kaijin and Calix couldn't believe that Rimuru had a magic ore the whole time.

Rimuru: Can you use that?

Kaijin: Wait...wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait! That's magic ore! And it's unbelievably pure!

Calix: Hey, old man! Are you blind?! That's not magic ore! Look closely!

Kaijin: Huh?!

Kaijin takes off his goggles and takes a clear look at the magic ore.

Kaijin: What?! It's not even magic ore! It's already been processed! It's a cluster of magisteel!

Rimuru: That's right.

Calix's personality changed when he looked at the magisteel cluster.

Calix: With this magisteel cluster, we can make even stronger swords with this! As a swordsmith, my blood is boiling up! Hahahahaha!

Kaijin: It can't be...This entire cluster is...A-Are you sure we can have this?! We'll pay you handsomely, of course!

Rimuru: Well, now...I wonder what I should do...

Rimuru then starts whistling.

Kaijin: What is it you want? I'll do anything in my power for it!

Calix: I can even give you my entire allowance! Please let us take this cluster!

Sasuke: *looks at Calix* Hey, hey, hey, wait! You're really going that far to get this cluster?!

Rimuru: Well, there's one...

Rimuru looks at Sasuke.

Rimuru: Tell him, Sasuke-kun.

Sasuke: Eh? Me?

Rimuru: Just go and tell him.

Sasuke: O-Okay...

Sasuke walks up to Kaijin and Calix and stands in front of them in silence.

Sasuke: ...

Kaijin: ...*gulp*...

Calix: ...

Sasuke: ...We'd like you to find some fellow artisans who'll come to our village to teach their crafts to the villagers.

Kaijin: ...Is that all you both wanted?

Calix: That's it? Just that?

Sasuke: Our priority right now is the shelter and clothing part of food, shelter, and clothing.

Rimuru: We'd also like to get some clothing for future use, as well as weapons and armor.

Kaijin: ...Ha! That's easy!

Calix: That won't be a problem. Leave it to us.

Garm: But...

Dord: Even if you start on those swords now...

Myrd: Hm...

Sasuke: Can you finish in time, Calix, Kaijin-san?

Calix: We'll do what I can.

Kaijin: 

All right! Let's get started!

Garm+Dord: Right!

Myrd: Hm! Hm!

Rimuru: Hmm...

Rimuru walks up to Kaijin.

Rimuru: Hey, old man. You said you've already made one, right? Can we see it?

Kaijin: Oh...Hey, Calix!

After a few minutes, Calix brought Kaijin's magic sword to the room and shows it to Rimuru.

Rimuru: It's magnificent. Even an untrained eye like mine can tell you have real skill.

Sasuke: Hey, that blade looks like it's shining.

Kaijin: It has a magisteel core. Put simply, it's a sword that matures in the image of its user.

Sasuke: That's impressive.

Rimuru: For that to happen...I'm gonna borrow this sword!

Rimuru grabs the longsword and starts to absorb it as the sword disappears inside Rimuru's slime body.

Sasuke: Rimuru, what are you-?!

Garm: The sword...!

Dord: What did you...?!

Calix: That sword cost more than you think, you know!

Kaido: Rimuru, you...

Rimuru: Just give me a second. 

Rimuru finished creating many copies of the longswords and spits out all twenty of them.

Sasuke: No way!

Kaijin: What?!

Calix: How in the-?! How did he do that?!

Rimuru: Twenty longswords made from magisteel clusters!

Sasuke+Calix+Dwarves: eeeeeeeeeEEEEHHHH?!!!!!

(Timeskip)

Rimuru: A party?

Kaijin: Yeah! I made my delivery on time, thanks to you!

Rimuru: But you don't have to do that.

Garm: Oh, come on! There'll be lots of cute elf girls there!

Rimuru: Elf?!

Sasuke: Oh boy... I don't like where this going...

Calix: *sigh* Here we go again...

Dord: Yeah! It's a place called "Butterflies of the Night" where girls of all ages, from young to mature, wait on you hand on foot!

Rimuru: Butterflies...

Myrd: Hm! Hm!

Rimuru: Speak, man!

Sasuke: *sweatdropped* Actually, you know what, I'll just go somewhere else, instead.

Calix: Y-Yeah, me too.

Kaijin: Come on, Sasuke-kun, Calix. It won't be a party without you two.

Dord: Yeah!

Rimuru: Well, if you insist, I suppose I'll have to.

Sasuke: *sigh* It can't be helped...Okay, I'll come. But I'm only coming because you'll only give me a drink.

Kaijin: Sure, sure, no problem.

Calix: And don't even blame either of us for what happens.

Garm: Yeah, yeah.

Sasuke: *looks at Calix* You know, I'm glad my friend, Rimuru helped you both. 

Calix: Yeah. But seriously, I thought I was a goner if it weren't for Rimuru-san. Thank you for helping us.

Sasuke: No, no, no, don't thank me. Rimuru is the one doing all of the work making your swords.

Calix: But still, thank you for coming to this kingdom.

Sasuke: *smiles* Sure thing.

Then something fell out of Sasuke's pocket as Calix notices it.

Calix: Oh, you dropped it.

As Calix picks it up, he was shocked at what he picked up.

Calix: Hey, Sasuke.

Sasuke: What?

Calix: Is this really yours?

Sasuke: Yeah, that's mine. It must've fallen out of my pocket. Thanks.

Sasuke then takes the Ride Book from Calix's hand.

Calix: Could it be...?!

Calix quickly rushes towards the storage room and went in.

Kaijin: Calix?

Kaido: What is he doing?

After a few seconds, Calix walked out of the room bringing a pink sword and a pink small book, and Sasuke and Rimuru were surprised.

Rimuru: Is that...?!

Sasuke: That book and sword...!

Calix: Sasuke... Do you also have a strange powerful sword along with a strange small book?

Sasuke: Y-Yeah, I do.

Sasuke quickly takes out Kaenken Rekka.

Sasuke: You mean this sword and book, right?

Kaijin: Those books... Their designs look the same. And that sword... It's very similar to...

Kaido: Y-Yeah, there's no doubt

Sasuke: Then that means... You also wield a powerful sacred sword too, Calix?!

Calix: Looks like we have a lot to talk about. Sasuke, we need to go to "Butterflies of the Night".

Sasuke: What? Why?

Calix: I have a good friend who works as a bartender with his wife there. And he has possessed a sacred sword and book similar to yours.

Sasuke: There's another person who has one, too?!

 Calix: If we are going to talk about the swords and the books we got, we need him to get involved. 

Sasuke: O-Okay, I understand.

(Timeskip)

(Butterflies of the Night)

"Oh, Kaijin! How nice to see you!"

"Welcome~!"

Inner Rimuru: WHOA!!!!

Inner Rimuru: Elves!

Inner Rimuru: Elves!

Inner Rimuru: Erofu(Eros)...I mean, Elves!

Calix: *sweatdropped* Hey... Is it me or is your slime making a perverted face just now?

Sasuke: Yup. He's really doing the face.

"Oh, how cute~!"

The elf hugged Rimuru making him feel really and even more excited

Inner Rimuru: OH YESSS!!!

"Hey! I got my eyes on it first~!"

The second elf grabs Rimuru from the first elf and hugs Rimuru.

The third dark elf takes Rimuru from the second elf and starts bouncing Rimuru.

"Wow! It feels so nice and bouncy!"

Sasuke: Well, he's gone. There's no stopping him now.

Kaijin: After the way you resisted coming here, you sure seem to be enjoying yourself.

Rimuru: Huh? N-No, I wouldn't say that.

Sasuke: No, no, no, no, that's exactly what you're saying.

Calix: Looking at your face is very obvious.

Kaijin+Myrad+Garm+Dord: ...

Sasuke and Calix sat at the bar table while Sasuke takes out his book and continues reading his novel while Calix was waiting for his friend to come. Sasuke was a bit uneasy because he was still underage. After all, he's still 18 years old. And as for Calix, he's old enough to do those things, but he just doesn't want to do it.

"It's not fair for you to have it! I'll have the other cutie~!"

"Calix-kun~! Come sit here with us~!"

Calix: Thanks ladies, but I'm good.

Sasuke: *sweatdropped* T-Thanks for the offer, ladies. But I think I'll let my friend Rimuru have all the fun.

"Why is that?" 

Sasuke: I'm still underage. I'm 18.

"That's even better!"

"I love younger innocent boys either!"

Sasuke covers his head on the table.

Sasuke: *sulks* Please... Someone get me out of this horror house...!

????: Ah, Calix-kun! Welcome back!

Calix: *smiles* Nice to see you again... Melian.

Sasuke raises his head.

Sasuke: Hey, what is this aura...? Could they be...?

To be continued
