Demon Lord Milim Nava

Grim's POV*

The next morning after the small feast we talked with some of Gazel's subordinates. In the conversation leading to this point we had only some small talk about our little nation when the topic of how dangerous we are was presented.

"Huh?! We're considered a Disaster?!" Rimuru yelled but I gave him a look and spoke.

"Think of it like this Rimuru. We are a large group of powerful named monsters. If we wanted to we could do plenty of damage. Of course that is only if we want to, which we don't." I said looking at Gazel's knight.

"Aren't the categories kind of broad though? There's only three categories so they've got to cover a lot of ground." Rimuru said before the knight I was looking at spoke.

"Actually there is one more above those three. It's a level known as Catastrophe," He said as he continued to explain, "These represent literal natural catastrophes. Attracting the wrath of a Catastrophe might as well mean the end of the world."

My dear then spoke, "Are there any Catastrophes or is it a label made in case something like that rises?"

He then nodded, "They do exist, one is the Storm Dragon Veldora. It also applies to a select few demon lords. But so few actually exist that the category is widely ignored. Besides outside of extreme cases you wouldn't encounter any."

As he then spoke to Rimuru more i spoke over the bond to my dear, "(These sound similar to the rankings in MonHun with the Black Dragons definitely being Catastrophes.)"

"(Indeed. However, I'm worried. Where the two of us are. I can feel that we are already stronger than the Metal Raths and were still only Ornate Raths. And we cant forget the possibility of us deviating. The idea of a Dreadking Silver Rathalos is bad already not to mention the powers we have on top of that.)" she said.

After a few more hours and official documents produced and a suit for Rimuru we went to sign the deal with Gazel.

"The representatives of Dwargon and the Jura Tempest Federation, who agree to form a pact of cooperation, will now sign the binding forms to make it official." Said the little old lady that followed Gazel who was standing before us with his two knights on his side.

As we signed the documents in the written common language the name of our nation was spread worldwide via magic. Our Nation is the Nation of Tempest with the Capital city being disputed by some. Those adherent to Rimuru wished it was named after him. Those that followed us wished for our names. However I put forward an option all on our own. Now the name Dundorma is the name of our city.

Over the following weeks the amount of visitors increased most were dwarfs or other local friendly monsters. Some wished to pay respected or were looking for Protection. But some wish to raid and pillage. Let's just say they didn't last long.

Soon however as we were walking through town looking at some of the shops that had opened up with the construction in the city winding down for now. When we were suddenly slammed by a massive aura of power. It felt as if Fatalis himself was standing over us. So we decided to try and get out of the city as the source of the power seemed to be coming towards us rather than the city.

As we got farther from the city we ran into Rimuru who also sensed the oncoming aura.

Play Nay! The Honor is All Ours when Milim is here to fight.*

Soon the aura crashed into the ground in front of us leaving a sizable crater when a fairly young voice spoke, "Greetings. I am Demon Lord Milim Nava. You three seemed like the toughest in town, so I came to say hello." She then did a quick lap around Flora and I before kneeling down and poking Rimuru.

He then nervously introduced himself, "Hello, my name is Rimuru. Why do you think we are the strongest?"

she then stood up and laughed a little, "Heh! Do you really think your hiding those Auras from me? My Draconic "Milim Eye" only needs a single glace to detect the magical energy that any being tries to hide! Don't even think of trying to pass yourselfs off as harmless around me!"

she then picked up Rimuru and continued speaking, "so is this your true form then? On Gelmud's crystal ball you looked like a silver haired human."

Rimuru then transformed and continued to banter with Milim in this time she began to feel less like a black dragon in terms of personality and more like a Chamelos. But we were waiting for a fight so we switched into our armored forms with the armor having been upgraded into the Azure and Pink variants of our previous armor. The same happened with our weapons with them being improved.

By the time I tuned back into the conversation Milim was done looking over Rimuru's human form and she spoke once again, "I'm pretty sure that you were teenier on the crystal ball same with the other two and i'm sure the two of you were red and blue not pink and blue. Let me guess you ate the Orc Lord?"

I then spoke, "We did. However, what is it that brings you to our town today?"

She then put her hands on her hips and spoke again, "It was the first thing I said. I came to say hello."

We knew that if we were to fight her we would lose but we'd at least attempt to fight.

But before we could say anything, Shion and Venus jumped over us to attack Milim. However her attack did nothing as they told Ranga and Zino to take us to safety. But we stopped them by grabbing onto a tree and stopping them only for Soei to show up and wrap Milim up in Thread Fetters and for Benimaru to throw a Hellflare. But it was all for naught.

"An assault of this level might have toppled another demon lord. But that demon lord would not be me."

She then exploded in power and wounded everyone there while making the crater even larger.

After all was said and done we began to walk towards Milim with a plan in mind.

"Ph? And do you have some method of attack that might actually affect me?" She asked.

Rimuru responded, "Just one."

"WA HA HA HA! Then I would like to see it! But you three must serve me if it fails to have any effect. Is that understood?" Milim said.

"All right." Rimuru muttered before he lunged straight at Milim, "Then take this."

As he dashed forward my Dear and I followed behind just in case it didn't work. He then fed Milim a glob of Honey that some bees gave us in exchange for protection. It was on our personal list to go and visit their hive when we have free time.

Milim then lit up like a Christmas tree from the honey. She then began to beg for more as Rimuru slowly ate some of it and with her reaction we stood down and changed out of our armor into the casual clothes.

Soon we came to an agreement that she'd get the rest of the honey and in turn she'd never harm our people in the future. And after checking on the others we began to head back to town .

Rimuru and Milim were riding Ragna. While FLora and I rode Zino. Milim then asked a question.

"So level with me: have you ever considered becoming demon lords?"

I spoke, "I can't say we have nor do we wish to be demon lords."

she then squeaked out a reply, "But you'd be demon lords! It's cool, right? You're always admired being so powerful and menacing, right?"

"It's not happening dear." Flora said.

AN: Flora has always called those she thinks as kids as dear and the same can be said with Grim just switch out Dear for Kid.*

"Whaaaat?! Then what do you look forward to in life? What keeps you going?!"

"Lots of things," Siad Rimuru, "in fact our biggest problem is there is too much to do."

"But demon lords get to boast and brag to Majin and humans."

"Isn't it boring just doing that?"

Milim then grabbed Rimuru and shook him, "Wh-what?! Are you saying what you're doing is more fun than being a demon lord?! That's not fair! It's not fair, It's not fair! ARRGH! Let me join your group then!!"

I chuckled with Flora. It was like seeing my little sister raising hell because she didn't get an expensive toy.

"Fine, fine. I'll show you around our town."

" You will? You promise?!"

I then spoke, "Hey kid if you call us by our names we'll call by yours."

"Well … Okay but only for you. The only people i allow to call me Milim are my fellow demon lords."

"Thanks, so are we friends now Milim." I said.

Rimuru then spoke up, " Look here we are. Welcome to Tempest the monster federation."

Milim was immediately running down the street looking at stalls. Before Rimuru could say anything however she went down the street looking at a water pump that was installed.

Rimuru ran after her as Flora and I laughed. We followed after them as we saw Gabiru get clobbered into the next century by Milim. She then warned that she didn't kill him because of our agreement. We then told everyone to gather in the town center and to familiarize themselves to how Milim looks to stop ny future incidents.

'Not that it will stop them however.' I thought.

We then arrived at the platform that we announced things from and with the help ofa Magcrophone we began to announce Milim's visit.

"Ahem!" Rimuru began, "As of today a new companion will be staying here in the city."

"She is a guest of ours so treat her with respect." I said Rimuru then handed his mic off to Milim so she could speak.

"I'm Milim Nava, and I'll be living here, starting today."

I nearly choked at that. Why because I was taking a drink of water because i was thirst damnit.

After some help from my dear, Iwas able to breathe again. In that time the citizens accepted Milim and she designated Rimuru as her best friend. Soon we returned home. Our house wasn't massive but it didn't need to be. A Bedroom, Kitchen, living room and two offices. Mine was mainly for studying the world and reading though reports that I have to deal with being the one that was designated to be in charge of Agriculture and Trade in Tempest. Flora was charged with being in charge of the treasury and the more minor parts of the country, however she was also the Grand Acrivist and her office is a miniature library. Rimuru was in charge to the Civil matters, housing, roads, and the diplomatic matter were generally handed to him in regards of ambassadors however things like treaties and laws are all three of us and our combined cabinets.

The yard had some small amenities: a hammock spot for reading, a small koi pond and a garden for Flora. Zino also lived with us either sleeping in the house with us on her own bed under the stairs or out in her doghouse which has a bed and area for her to lay down a look outside.

To us this seemed perfect. Little did we know of the other demon lords plans regarding our little city.
