After they finished eating the decided to leave and get some air because everyone was celebrating. They headed toward the edge of town where it was peaceful.
There was an awkward silence for awhile until Rimuru said laughing "I never thought that this would be the way this date went."
"I know right! I can't belive I said my feelings out loud!" she said embarrassed.
"Yea that was surprising."
Another long awkward silence broke out as they continued out of town. They would look at each other occasionally blush then look away. They come to a hill and they sit under they tree that was at the top.
After a long silence milim said "Hey Rimuru. Did you only think of this because I'm strong and I could be used to ward off enemy's?"
"Is that what you thought?"
Milim looked away after hearing his question and remained silent.
"I see. Though that's a plus but the real reason I said yes was because I started to fall for you after the first date. And then when you kissed me I just fell that much harder even though I have zero dating experience."
Milim hearing this blushed and was speachless for a minute. Then she thought of how the other demon lords would see her if she dated a mere Majin.
"What about the other demon lords? I think are relationship will draw their attention which could cause problems." Rimuru said concerned.
"Yea that is a big problem. So do you think this isn't gonna work out between us?"
"I don't know Milim."
"Oh I know why don't you become a demon lord. Then there shouldn't be a problem with us being together!"
"That's does sound nice but I dont have an interest in becoming a demon lord because it could cause problems for my town as well."
"I see so.."
"We could keep our relationship hidden for now until we figure it out how's that. I don't think the other demon lords would care if you aquiured a friend. It will be an issue but not as big."
Milims face lit up "So it can work!"
"Yep."
Rimuru saw how happy she was and smiled and said "How about we call it a night you can stay here tonight if you want."
"Huh! Really would that be ok?"
"I don't see why not I'm sure noone would object."
She took Rimuru up on her offer and they decided to head back. They walked past the place where everyone was at and saw that most of them were already out cold and the rest we dosing off. They started laughing when they saw gabiru passed out on the counter and shion still partying.
After they checked up on the they went towards Rimurus place where they found Shuna and benimaru at the door.
"I see Lady Milim will be staying tonight." Shuna said "I shall lead her to her room."
Mililm and Shuna started for the room after they say goodnight. Then benimaru asked Rimuru if they could talk so they headed outside to talk.
"I understand yall are now a couple but don't you think that it will cause an issue?" Benimaru asked with concern.
"We have put some thought into it. We decided to keep it under wraps for now. So if you can make sure it don't leave town I'd appreciate it."
"As you wish lord Rimuru I shall leave you now I'm quite tired so I'll go. Goodnight lord Rimuru."
"Night."
They both headed in for the night.
That morning Rimuru found Milim in the kitchen with Shion and Shuna all dressed in approns cooking breakfast. They all greeted him and all showed him the food they made him.
Rimuru was faced with a difficult situation. Shions food was by far the scariest, Shunas was the best looking and Milims looks a little over cooked. He didn't know what to do until he heard Gobta waking behind him. He got a spoonful of Shions food and gave it to Gobta. Gobta fainted and layed the seemingly lifeless.
"I told you to get Benimaru to approve of your food Shion."
"Ohh Umm he was speachless so I thought it was a yes."
Rimuru sighed and then tried Shunas. He was happy to taste something so good but the looked at Milims. He got a spoonful of Milims and slowly took a bite. He was shocked at how sweet it was.
"What did you put in this Milim its so sweet?"
"I put the stuff you gave me the first time we met in it." She said nervously.
Rimuru knew he couldn't say the wrong thing so he said that it was good and seeing Milim light up with excitement made it worth tasting.
Milim was truly happy for the first time but she knew she couldn't stay forever. She then Walked up to Rimuru and hugged him tightly. Rimuru was caught off guard but then hugged her back.
"Will you come back Milim?"
"Of course because Im In love with you Rimuru."
