Chapter 890: Xiao's Concession; Ciel's Provocation
Chapter 890: Xiao's Concession; Ciel's Provocation
After hearing Diablo's request, Ciel did not respond immediately. There was a thoughtful look in his red eyes. It was more like calculation than thinking.
It seems like it is evaluating and calculating something.
[No thanks. Individual: Scorching Dragon Velgrynd, leave it to me.]
Ciel's cold yet divine words reached the ears of Diablo and everyone present.
The words were so calm that it was as if the Scorching Dragon Velgrind was some unknown little character.
But that is exactly the case.
"Yes, my lord."
Diablo said this respectfully and enthusiastically, then returned to his seat.
But this time he raised his head, because he wanted to witness with his own eyes the majestic figure of this "adult" next.
When he thought of this, endless excitement spread all over Diablo's body like a reptile.
Xiao’s expression suddenly changed when he heard that Lord Rimuru would personally deal with Velgrynd, the Scorching Dragon.
Xiao, who had just fought with him, was well aware of Velgrynd's strength.
It’s so strong that it’s terrifying.
[Holy Demon] + [Killing Heart] + 'Emperor's Shield'
With these three incredible buffs added together, he was barely qualified to fight against Velgrind, a 'Dragon'.
He didn’t think that Rimuru could be a match for Velgrynd!
Just when Xiao was about to stop him, Diablo suddenly reached out and stopped him.
"Senior Xiao, what are you going to do?!"
Diablo said to Xiao with a smile.
"You, get out of the way!"
Xiao looked at Diablo coldly and said coldly.
"Xiao-senpai, didn't you hear that the master will personally deal with the Scorching Dragon Velgrynd? So you should rest for a while."
How could Diablo let Xiao ruin his master's plan, even though he knew he had good intentions and wanted to help his master?
However, an order is an order, and as a subject, of course I must obey it unconditionally.
"Diabolo, do you know what you're talking about?! Get out of my way!"
Looking at the stubborn Diablo, a hint of anger emerged in Xiao's indifferent expression, and even his eyes showed anger towards Diablo.
In his opinion, Diablo was just fooling around with Rimuru-sama.
He simply didn't understand the true power of 'Catastrophe Grade'.
This is tantamount to putting Lord Rimuru in a dangerous situation.
"Of course I know what I'm doing. I'm following the orders given by the Lord. And... it's not that I don't understand, Xiao-senpai. It's that you don't understand the greatness of the Lord!"
Diablo spoke to Xiao in a fanatical tone, looking like a fanatic who unconditionally believed in everything Rimuru said.
Seeing Diablo like this, even Xiao was silenced.
Although Xiao is not good at speaking, he is not very good at reading people's expressions.
But even he knew that Diablo would not listen to anything at this moment.
Even if he explained the pros and cons of this matter to Diablo, it would be useless.
Just as he trusted the Emperor's words unconditionally, Diablo was now following Rimuru's orders.
Thinking of this, Xiao took a step back and returned to his position.
Lord Rimuru also has a backup plan left by the Emperor, so even if he loses... his life should not be in danger.
Moreover..., he still has the shield left by the 'Emperor' on his body, so he can still block it when Lord Rimuru is in danger of his life.
So, Xiao... gave in.
Diablo, who was standing in front of Xiao, looked at Xiao who took a step back, and the smile on his face became more and more intense. Although Diablo's smiling face was full of smiles, he was actually relieved in his heart.
After all, if Xiao insists on taking action, even Diablo will be helpless.
By then, things will become... very troublesome!
After all... he doesn't want to fight with Senior Xiao.
This will make his position in the Demon Kingdom very embarrassing in the future.
At this time, Hongmaru, who was standing next to Xiao and Diablo, also secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
He was really afraid that before that lord could even start fighting with Velgrind, the fight between his own 'Original Black' and 'Demon Subduing Great Sage' would start.
By that time, I would really become a laughing stock in front of others.
"Haha~~, you're so arrogant! You want to take care of me?! Demon Lord Rimuru, if you have that ability, then come on."
Velgrynd was already laughing at Ciel’s nonsensical words.
At this moment, the provocation and insult from Rimuru and the anger from Rudra’s injury intertwined and began to burn Velgrynd’s sanity. The string in Velgrynd’s brain was about to break.
[…I am not Rimuru-sama, I am… her executor]
Ciel frowned slightly and corrected Velgrendo's mistake.
She is an executor and just an executor, nothing more.
She will protect Rimuru-sama, who gave her her real name, feelings, and...hers.
"you wanna die!"
Velgrynd gritted his teeth and said to Ciel.
[Analysis... begins. Battle plan begins to be formulated.]
Ciel paid no attention to the threat from Velgrynd and calmly used his calculation ability to start formulating a plan to deal with her in front of Velgrynd.
Seeing 'Ciel' who was provoking him like this, the string in Velgrynd's mind completely broke, and anger directly overwhelmed his brain. His slender jade hands turned directly into dragon claws wrapped in red dragon scales and grabbed Ciel fiercely.
Looking at the red dragon claw right in front of him, Charles's calm face did not change at all. When the dragon claw was about to touch Charles' eyes, Charles slowly uttered four words.
[Development...Completed]
At Velgrynd’s feet, a teleportation array emitting a blue light that was powerful enough to distort space was instantly constructed.
In an instant, Ciel and Velgrynd disappeared from the spot, vanishing from everyone’s sight.
At this time, Diablo, Xiao and others who belonged to Rimuru and were standing not far away subconsciously looked up at the sky.
And similarly, the same thing happened on Rudra's side.
Rudra, Kondo Tatsuya, and Damrada also looked up at the sky.
At their level, locking onto someone's breath is as easy as breathing.
However, it was obvious that Rudra was not in a good mood at the moment, because even he did not see the teleportation magic that Ciel had just displayed clearly.
This is... a very scary thing!
At this time, high in the sky.
Ciel stood quietly in the sky, looking calmly at Velgrynd who was still extending his claws.
There was no provocation, no words, only a calm and indifferent gaze that was like scrutiny.
PS: Here is a chapter.
One chapter first.
There should be another chapter tonight. It may be posted a little late, so I want to tell all my readers in advance.
But don't worry, everyone, the kitten will not let go of the second sister as a "battery".
Of course, the same goes for Veludera's oversized "battery".
