Kiyotaka pov

I was in Kurobe and Kaijin's workshop learning how to forge weapons as it may help me in the long run in the future.

"How's this?" I asked them after creating my first weapon.

"Oi oi! Are you sure this is your first time forging? What weapon is this? It's a high-leveled Unique Grade weapon!" Kaijin asked

"Oi oi! Are you sure this is your first time forging? What weapon is this? It's a high-leveled Unique Grade weapon!" Kaijin asked.

"Oh. I just combined a few ideas together. It's a gun blade."

"You're a natural! Maybe I can teach you more blacksmith stuff like how to fix weapons and build more weapons." Kurobe said. Just then, Rigurd opened the door and entered.

"Kiyotaka-sama! The Lizardmen have arrived. I thought I might alert you since Rimuru-sama is already there!"

"Lizardmen?" I followed Rigurd. As I met Rimuru and the others, I could feel the tense atmosphere along with their increasing temper.

"What's going on?" I asked.

"This lizardman just insulted us and Rimuru-sama." Benimaru explained.

"A newcomer among these weaklings? Such cow- AHHH!" The leader was about to continue his insults when he noticed me and fell onto his arse. "A demon!"

I raised an eyebrow. What's with people getting scared of me? Oh well, I could use this opportunity.

"That I am. So, are you going to back off or continue your insults?" I looked at him coldly and scanned him and his cronies. The place suddenly felt silent. One by one, the lizardman dropped to their knees, shaking really hard. My allies were also slightly shaking.

"Kiyotaka-san, you're giving off a lot of pressure." Shizue put her hand on my shoulder. It seems that only her and Rimuru weren't scared.

I sighed. I looked at the leader.

"What's your name?"

"M-My name is Gabiru, and I'm here to save your village."

"Save our village, you say? Shouldn't you speak for yourself? Among our village and yours, I'd say yours is the one more in need. How about we make a deal? If we win, we'll be your subordinates. If you lose, you will work for us."

"Very well. I, Gabiru, will have you taste defeat in my hands." The lizardman dramatically spun his trident while striking a 'heroic' pose.

"Gabiru! Gabiru!" His friends cheered for him.

I looked at my allies, if looks could kill, Gabiru would've been killed at least a thousand times. The one most pissed off was Ranga.

*Sigh* "Then Ranga will-"
