Jura Forest of the Powerful Slime Lord
The morning sun has risen from the horizon shining the sky into a blue color to single the start of a new day, and within a bedroom of the mansion is the young Demon Lord Iruma sounding asleep with a cute little snore sound.
"Come on, little bunnies, let me hug you." Iruma talked in his sleep.
Iruma turn his head over to his left and his face stumble onto something soft and round thinking it's a big soft ball, grabbing onto this "ball" causing a moan sound to happen.
"Ah! Lord Iruma." A girl's voice said.
"Oh, sorry about that Ameri." Iruma said still in his sleep.
Then five seconds later, Iruma open his eyes widen of pure shock and slowly look up seeing two familiar red eyes and her kitty-like ears twitching as the scene zooms out showing Iruma just realize that he is snuggling his face onto Ameri's face.
"AAH! Ameri!" Iruma gasped as he fell off the bed.
"Lord Iruma, are you okay?" Ameri asked concern.
"Y-Yeah, I'm okay… Just surprise to find you on my bed." Iruma said.
"Forgive me, I only came here to wake you for Opera started making breakfast, but seeing you sleep like that makes me want to… want to… Oh, I can't even say it out loud." Ameri turned around hiding her blushing face with her hands.
"Well, huh, thank you for coming to wake me up." Iruma said as he opens the curtains of his room.
"Did you have a goodnight sleep?" Iruma asked to change the subject.
"I slept wonderful, my Lord." Ameri answered with a strong smile as the sunlight shows her appearance is different than before.
Ameri looks more like a tall teenage girl with her reddish orange that is long hip length. She has two long orange tufts protruding from her hair resembling horns or ears. Her fingernails are short and red. She wears a white sheer undershirt connected to a black choker on her neck, atop a black and white sleeveless vest with a sweetheart neckline and an orange collar. She also wears an orange and white skirt, pale pink thigh-high socks, and orange knee-high boots. Breasts sizes: HH-cup.
"Now come, Opera and Ghislaine are waiting for us at the dining room." Ameri said.
"Right, just let me change from my pajama first." Iruma said as Ameri nods and exit the room.
"Oh yes, Opera made you a new set of clothes I left on the counter." Ameri informed before leaving the room.
Believe it or not, that girl really is Ameri, the same monster girl Ghislaine and I saved ten days ago in the forest for my training with Ghislaine and the next day when I saw her again, I almost didn't recognize her if I didn't notice her hair and red eyes. She and Opera told me it's because I gave her a name which they also explain that giving her a name can cause a monster to evolve, and that it also drains some magic from the one who does the naming.
Iruma is looking at himself in the mirror to look at the new set of clothes Ameri told her about and see that Opera really did the amazing with this.
Iruma is now wearing a black shirt with a jack that is a lighter blue color than his hair and thye collar part is higher a little over half his head with white stripes and the back is long like a cape, matching pants with a red lightning bolt on each leg, and dark blue shoes. He also got a red round jewel with a black dagger pupil tied close around his neck by a red ribbon. The back of his jacket has a symbol of the red eye like the jewel and it's inside a purple shield symbol with two pointy tops and two arrows below the eyes crossing each other.
"Wow, this outfit looks great. Opera certainly got himself the skills of a fashion designer." Iruma complimented.
Iruma leave his room meeting with Ameri and they made their way to the dining room where Ghislaine is waiting, greeting her Lord and Ameri.
"Morning." Ghislaine greeted wave her hand in the air, causing her now K-cup breasts which Opera revealed that the old Demon Lord Derkila made that happen before he died as well.
Opera comes in carrying large plates of food that is breakfast though most of them are for Iruma since he has the Extreme Appetite because how he had to live back in his old world.
"How is it, Lord Iruma?" Opera asked.
"It's wonderful, you really went all out with breakfast." Iruma answered with a cheerful smile.
"Thank you, but I'm afraid that will be the last meal we will have in this mansion." Opera said.
"Huh, last meal?" Iruma confused of what he meant.
"Lord Iruma, do you remember how incredible your predecessor Lord Derkila's magic was." Ghislaine asked.
"Oh yeah, you said that his magic can even more anything he wants be kept in pristine condition for a really long time even forever." Iruma recalled.
"Yeah, but that's only when he was still alive and since he's gone the spell won't last long as it will undone today." Ghislaine mentioned.
"I see, so that's why you also said that I have to be ready for the outside world." Iruma said starting to understand and turns to Ameri.
"I'm sorry, Ameri, you were starting to get use to this home and now we have to leave." Iruma apologized.
"Do not worry, I remember an old saying my father used to tell, something about "Home is where the heart is" and I think I'm starting to understand that being with you is my home." Ameri smiled.
"Well, after breakfast we'll need to pack up everything we can carry and nothing too heavy, so they won't slow us down." Iruma started to think of preparations.
"I already taken care of the necessary things before making breakfast, I also included a boardgame in case we get board and want to do a little entertainment, I even packed Ghislaine's favorite brush that would always make her purr." Opera informed.
"Whoa, you work fast!" Iruma shocked.
"Of course, as the servant of a Demon Lord, I will always perform my duties to the fullest." Opera stated proudly with his kitty ears up.
"Okay, guess all we can do now is enjoy our last breakfast together." Iruma said as he got back to eating.
"Hey Ghislaine, do you want some of my meat?" Iruma offered.
"You sure, you always like to eat more than we do." Ghislaine asked.
"It's fine, I think it's important to share your food with others." Iruma believed with his cute smile which causes Ghislaine to blush a little and her ears pointing up.
"Th-Then I accept your offer." Ghislaine took the meat.
After everyone had breakfast, they all exit the mansion as Opera look at an hourglass that is the timer for how long the spell is going to end, and when the last grain of sand drops the mansion started to age and crumble into dust being blown away by the wind.
"And there it goes, the last remaining home of Demon Lord Derkila gone by the dust." Ghislaine commented.
"Even though it was only for a short time, it was still a home I'll forget." Iruma said.
"So, where do we go now?" Iruma asked.
"I'm glad you ask for you see; I have a place in mind that I've been meaning to go to for some time now." Opera pulled out a map from his shirt showing it to everyone.
"This map here is a forest known as the Jura Forest, a place where my friend lives. At least, I hope he still is." Opera said.
"Is your friend important to find?" Iruma asked.
"Indeed, for he is known as the Storm Dragon Veldora." Operan reveled shocking Ghislaine and Ameri.
"Are you serious? THE Storm Dragon Veldora?!" Ameri gasped.
"Even I never knew about this despite working alongside you! How come you never said anything like that to me?" Ghislaine asked.
"You never ask." Opera answered simply.
"Anyway, Veldora is a good friend of mine though he always has issues with his temper mostly due to how his two older sisters were always fighting on how to raise him which all the fight that led him to his uncontrollable destructive rampages." Opera explained.
"Sounds like a big family issue." Iruma commented as he can understand that with his lazy-ass parents.
"At his last rampage 300 years ago, he was challenged by a hero and sealed by a powerful spell known as the Unlimited Imprisonment which is said to be unbreakable no matter what any fools tries to undo with magic or force or both, not even Demon Lord Derkila could break it." Opera mentioned.
"I guess even dragons like Veldora can't destroy anything like that." Ameri surprised.
"Right, I would offend visit him from time to time, but a month ago before you arrived, Demon Lord Iruma, Veldora's presence suddenly disappeared without a trace." Opera informed.
"He disappeared, I thought he was sealed away?" Iruma puzzled.
"He should be, but his massive magical energy just vanished, and I wish to find out what happened to him." Opera said.
"Well then, if you all agree then I hereby say we go to the Jura Forest!" Iruma declared.
"Thank you, Lord Iruma." Opera said smiling on the inside.
So, we left the mansion and made our way to the Jura Forest to find out what happened to the Storm Dragon Veldora who also happens to be a friend of Opera and it only took us about 15 days to get there.
For the past 15 days, Iruma's group went o the Jura Forest on foot with some walking and some running as Ghislaine wanted to make it as part of Iruma's physical training, along the way they also stop for a little sightseeing and through the three meals. Iruma helped out most of all thanks to his extreme survival skills with forging for food, and Ameri has also done some training discovering her talent for kicking.
"Alright, come at me." Ghislaine said to Ameri.
"Yes, ma'am!" Ameri charged at Ghislaine throwing some fast and strong kicks as the latter clash them with her fists.
"Wow, they're really giving this training their all." Iruma amazed.
"Yes, and it looks like Ameri is doing well with the training." Opera nodded and looked at the mountain from a very, very, very, very, far distance.
"That mountain where Veldora should be is just a few more miles from here." Opera informed.
"That's great, we better get going then." Iruma said.
Iruma's group walk along a path in the Jura Forest following the usual way Opera would always go to whenever he comes to visit Veldora.
"Wow, this place looks so pretty. I wonder if Veldora would let us live here when we find him." Iruma said, then the group is stop when Opera held out his arm.
"We are being approached." Opera alerted.
They see that something is coming at them fast by some creatures riding on big wolves and holding weapons in their hands.
"What are those things?" Iruma asked feeling a big scared.
"They look like goblins." Ameri noticed their green appearance.
"I don't know, they look a little stronger to be normal goblins." Ghislaine pointed out.
"You are right, they are Hobgoblins, and they appear to be riding Direwolves." Opera figured out.
"Odd, I don't remember hearing about two races of monsters working together." Ameri puzzled of this scene.
"You don't think they're going to attack us?" Iruma worried.
"That might be the case since monsters can since the magical aura of a powerful monster, or in your case a Demon Lord." Opera stated.
"What? But I'm not here to hurt anybody!" Iruma freaked out.
"Don't worry, I'll put them in their place for they dare to raise their arms against you." Ameri glared at the Hobgoblins and clutching her fists.
"Save some beating for me." Ghislaine readied as she grabs her sword.
"Wait, wait, wait, wait, we came here for a peaceful reason!" Iruma stopped them from causing trouble.
Soon the Hobgoblins and the Direwolves stop when they're just about fifteen feet away cross from Iruma's group.
"Huh, hello there, how are we on this lovely day." Iruma greeted nervously.
"Stop right there, you shall go no further from here." One Hobgoblin pointed his sword at Iruma.
"It's you, you're the one giving off that powerful magical aura… A power that only a Demon Lord could unleash such power." The Hobgoblin demanded.
"Huh, y-yeah, I guess." Iruma said, wondering how to explain this.
"You are right, this young man is the new Demon Lord Iruma Suzuki." Opera blurted out without regret.
"OPERA?!" Iruma panicked.
"Oh no, this is stop! What do we do now, Lord Rimuru?" The hobgoblin asked in fear.
"Hmm, this is unexpected." Rimuru commented.
One direwolf, bigger than others, step forward and appears to have a blue slime riding on top of it though Opera, Ghislaine, and Ameri were able to sense this slime is much more powerful than a normal one which is unheard of.
"Hey there." Rimuru greeted.
"Hi, just so you know, we're not here to hurt anyone. So, please don't think ill will of us." Iruma promised with a bow.
"(Odd, this kid is the source of that huge magical energy I sensed with Great Sage earlier, but he doesn't appear to be really dangerous, and that name sounds… Japanese.)" Rimuru thought.
"(Answer, this boy named Iruma appear to have once been human like you but was reborn into this world as a Demon Lord.)" Rimuru's skill Great Saga informed.
"(Whoa, for real? Then maybe he's from the same world as I was.)" Rimuru thought excited as he decided to do a little greeting joke.
"Nice to meet you, I'm not a bad slime. Slup." Rimuru joked.
None of them seem to understand the joke, except for Iruma who let out a laugh for a little moment.
"(At least this kid gets it.)" Rimuru thought, finding proof.
"Anyway, my name is Rimuru Tempest and I rule a goblin village not too far from here." Rimuere introduced himself as he hops off the big direwolf and hop to Iruma.
"Oh, hello there, as you know, my name is Iruma Suzuki and I'm a Demon Lord though just recently." Iruma greeted.
"Hey there, so what's a Demon Lord like you doing all the way out here and not at your own castle?" Rimuru asked.
"Well, you see our home no longer exist, so we were going to search for a new home, but Opera mentioned that his friend Veldora suddenly disappeared, and he wanted to see what's up." Iruma explained.
"Wow, your home is gone, tough break." Rimuru commented.
"Wait a minute, did you say one of you really knows Veldora?" Rimuru asked surprise.
"That's right, my name is Opera and it's a pleasure to meet you." Opera greeted, appearing next to Iruma.
"Hey there, it's an honor to meet Veldora's friend." Rimuru said.
"So, do you know what happened?" Opera asked.
"Well, I would tell you, but I think it would be best to talk about it in private. Let's go back to the goblin village and I'll explain everything to you there." Rimuru suggested.
"Wow, you would really welcome us to your home. That's very thoughtful of you." Iruma smiled.
"No problem, you maybe surprise that you and I have a lot more in common than you realize." Rimuru chuckled confusing Iruma.
(Goblin Village, Dwargon)
"Wow, this place looks so cool!" Iruma amazed as he and the others look around the village.
"Yeah, it's pretty awesome!" Rimuru smirked even though he doesn't have a mouth.
"I'm amazes to see so many goblins here. I know they gather in numbers to make up for the lack of strength, but this is something else." Ghislaine commented and she notice how most, if not all the goblins are staring at Iruma with a little fear in their eyes.
"I feel like I'm not welcome here." Iruma said.
"Don't worry, Iruma, once everyone gets to know you better, you'll be friends with them." Rimuru assured.
"Master, are you sure it's wise to invite them into our village?" Ranga asked.
"Trust me, I have a good feeling about these guys, especially that kid." Rimuru said confident.
