Chapter 25 - Dragon VS Destroyer
"M-Milim kill him"
How can someone be this pathetic? I mean did he think that he can control Milim with his puny magic or skills whatever it was.
Where did he get this much confidence in himself?
I looked at Veldora and nodded I'm pretty sure this old man wants to have some fun. Without even batting an eye to me Veldora jumped in front of me as I absorbed the table in my «Imaginary Space»
"Benimaru, take care of him"
With my order, Benimaru also jump into action without missing a beat. I created a barrier around Benimaru and Clayman and another one around Milim and Veldora.
The focus of all the demon lords shifted to the battle between Milim and Veldora. They didn't want to watch the battle between Benimaru and Clayman, there is nothing to watch as we know, Clayman didn't stand a chance against Benimaru.
But nobody is sure about who will win between Milim and Veldora.
If they have fought three months ago Veldora surely would have lost but maybe he has a chance now. Because Veldora did not only restore his energy but also gain a new 'Ultimate Skill' with a cheat ability.
«Probability Manipulation»
Just as the name suggests it can manipulate the probability of literally anything.
In other words, currently, Veldora's power is at its peak. It will be foolish to compare the new Veldora with the old Veldora.
Not to mention the training he did with me. And I'm sure Shizu-San also shared her experience in fighting.
Shizu is not that strong from a monster's view, not to mention Ifrit didn't cooperate with her. So I'm sure Shizu has too much experience in fighting opponents far stronger than her.
And seeing Veldora's confident grin I'm sure Shizu-San gave him pointers.
<
And Ciel-San what with the power that he is releasing. It's far greater than the first time I fought with him. Is he that strong in the past?
Veldora and Milim are both equal in terms of Physical Strength, Magicules Capacity, and Skills the only thing that makes Milim superior to Veldora is her control over her power.
She can manipulate her magicules far greater than Veldora. And in a battle of this caliber the only thing that matter is Skills, control over magicules(output), and a strong will. Because both of them are equally powerful in their respective field. The first one to make a mistake will lose.
And there is a high chance of Milim winning the battle.
Two reasons.
Better control, and better knowledge of her skills. She has these two advantages over Veldora.
Veldora has a lot of experience compared to Milim, but he didn't have the control.
Without wasting her time Milim transformed into her battle form. She acknowledged Veldora as her opponent, see she is sharp she already felt the difference between the old and new Veldora.
And with that, the battle started. Milim's sword disappeared into thin air. 'Ohh, so she wants to play fair huh.'
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
As I thought they didn't even think about holding back a little. Well, Milim is holding back she isn't using her sword after all.
And with that, the simple spar match became an all-out battle
Both of them are enjoying the battle as they were firing balls of magicules into each other.
"Whahaha. I did not know you were this much fun. Otherwise, I should have sparred with you much earlier in Tempest"
I looked at her with a deadpan look. What about your acting.
"Hahaha. Yeah! I know I'm amazing"
He even has the free space to talk while fighting this seriously. It's like I underestimated both of them. They are both easily my equals. No, they are better than me if I didn't have Ciel.
But too bad for them I have Ciel. Hehe, Fufu.
<
Yeah. Thank you Ciel-San but there is something that I'm more concerned about now. Ah. The barrier I put is breaking.
"Guy, can you put a better barrier than this"
I asked him as I looked at him and he just shakes his head in denial.
"Nope. I need some time to put another one"
He is right. It is not that easy to isolate an area from the outside. More so if two beasts like Milim and Veldora were fighting inside.
Sigh. I didn't want to show my power but I guess I didn't have a choice. Ciel-San
<
With a bright light, many layers of barrier appeared above the cracked barrier. They are having fun and I have to do all the hard work.
Unbeknownst to me, the black mist started to emerge from my shadows as it surrounded the whole room and nobody noticed it, they all are too busy watching the battle.
"See you are nothing more than a Useless Demon"
I said to him with a grin as he look irritated but didn't say anything. He just started to stare at the barrier.
BOOM!!
They sure are enjoying the battle. But what is this demon doing just staring at the barrier? Wait! Fufufu this bastard. I will show him some real skills.
Ciel-San
<
She cut me off mid-sentence. On it, what! I didn't understand what she said until I saw the black barrier nearly looked like black mist covering the whole room.
I have to say Ciel-San did it so naturally that even I didn't feel it at first. Because it is impossible to detect the mist with skills like «Magic sense» or «Universal Senses»
After a while, I heard a Tsk sound as I turn around to see Guy is the one who made that noise he looked a little irritated.
"Tsk. Tsk. Tsk. You sure are a 'Useless Demon' can't even copy the barrier made by a 'Little Slime' fufu."
I provoked him a little, mainly to see his reaction but I have a second reason Ciel-San was just analyzing his skill but he suddenly stopped.
"You! Sigh. Whatever"
Guy replied indifferently like he was not affected by provocation.
"Fufu. The oldest Demon Lord only amounts to this much. Heh!"
Shit! Why did you act like this I was about to finish copying your skill?
"I did— Wait a minute why do you want me to copy your skill that badly. It's a little–
Holy Shit!! Where are we? I'm pretty sure we are in another isolated space"
"Eh.? Did you notice it now? Fufu this is my private space called «Imaginary Space» and I only teleported us here because I didn't want the barrier to break.
Here I can control the discharged energy to a certain level"
"That's why my skill is not working on the barrier. For a second I thought I meet the second Velzard"
BOOM!!
What a hassle. I think it's enough for today.
BOOM!!
<
You are right. Wait!! What was that? Did I feel it wrong or it's another type of energy that Milim used?
<
Wait! Doesn't that mean she has unlimited magicules like me?
<
BOOM!!
This is making me sick now. Benimaru finished his battle a while ago but they both are still fighting.
BOOM!!
"Good job Benimaru"
"Thank you. Rimuru-Sama!"
Benimaru bowed and return beside me with a large grin. Veldora and Milim also stopped after a while and I returned everyone to the room.
"Why didn't you kill him"
"He is just a pawn of someone. He is being manipulated"
I replied to Veldora truthfully as I came out of my thoughts. I'm sure he can guess if I'm lying or not, through Soul-corridor
"Did anyone have any objection"
"No"
Guy asked if anyone has any objection.
"Yes. How can you—"
The vampire has some objections but the real Demon Lord Valentine stopped him.
"None"
Carrion also showed himself as I waved my hands toward him. He removed his mask as he saw that I already know about his disguise. After that, both Frey and Carrion step down from their seats as Demon Lord and became Milim's subordinates.
"It's time for a banquet"
Guy said with a smile as he gestured to two of his maids to bring the food and wines. The food appeared in front of us quite quickly. And the taste is also good.
"Hey, Veldora don't you dare drink wine while decreasing your poison resistance otherwise I will block your pain resistance"
Veldora flinch slightly as he was about to decrease his poison resistance. I'm already regretting teaching him this trick.
Hearing my cold voice Veldora puts down the wine on his table and started to drink juice like Milim and Ramires.
Sigh. Finally, Walpurgis is also over.
