Third-Person POV
Diablo, sitting alone in front of the tv at Sullivan's mansion after playing a game with Opera for hours on end, has made an interesting discovery. While flipping through the channels, he happened to stumble across the broadcast of a concert. The same concert his beloved Lord Rimuru is attending today. He initially began watching in hopes of spotting his master somewhere in the crowd but was soon pleasantly surprised by something much better.
Yes. Rimuru's worst fear became reality; he and Iruma were immediately discovered by his biggest admirer and butler. All by coincidence, too, which makes the whole thing even funnier.
He's entranced by the image of his Lord dancing and singing on stage. Having never seen Rimuru like this, he doesn't want to let this opportunity pass by. Diablo think's it's amazing, just like everything else Rimuru does. He wants to spread it around as much as possible to make everyone aware of how 'wonderful' Rimuru is. Rimuru, of course, would want to keep this a secret, but Diablo doesn't know this. It never even crossed his mind, seeing how happy Rimuru looked while performing, so he makes the assumption that this is something to be flaunted and cherished.
Diablo makes a mental recording of the spectacle, planning on eventually distributing it to many others through 'thought communication'.
"Kehehe...another way for me to show Guy how superior my Lord is to him. I will make sure to rub this in his arrogant face next time our paths cross!" Diablo says quietly to himself, an evil smile peeling across his face. With him being busy here, Diablo hasn't had the opportunity to get on the Primordial Red's nerves lately with his long-winded stories about his Lord Rimuru, and he's itching to do just that. He loves nothing more but to flaunt Rimuru's achievements in the face of his long-time rival.
Next time he's back home, he'll make sure to spread this little gem as much as possible, but he'll keep his knowledge of it secret for the time being. He wants it's spread to be a happy surprise to his precious Lord Rimuru. For what would be better than to have all the Tempestians praise Rimuru out of nowhere about this upon his return? Surely, his lord will be pleased, is what Diablo was thinking.
As much as Diablo's plan was doing Rimuru dirty, in his twisted mind, he was doing what he thought was best for his lord. So he quietly made note of every little detail of what Rimuru did on that stage and resolved to bide his time until he thought it was best to share it.
**The Next Day**
Rimuru POV
When I arrived at the school early this morning to help with the Student Council's stuff, I was immediately pulled aside by Ameri, leading to me getting some pitying looks from the other members. The only thing this could be about is that demdol concert.
"Is that you?!" Ameri asks, pointing to a picture on her phone. It's of me on stage yesterday. Wonderful...
"Uh...do I really look that small from your perspective? I know I'm a lot shorter than you, but if you think that's me, your sense of scale is waaay off!" I say to her, trying to sound as casual as possible. She doesn't seem convinced, so I continue. "Plus, have you ever seen me wear my hair like that? Yeah, I don't think so."
