Hot Spring Female Area

Hot spring is where most casual discussion with a member of the same gender usually occurs. Most discussions in this series usually happen in a meeting room with representatives in that same room.

Yeah, I can only remember many talking and stuff in this series.

Rimuru is currently living his life by being held on his girlfriend's lap pillow in the hot spring under her breast while a certain Saint enters the hot spring with her 'maid'.

Shiori- "Oh, Hina-chan! Come on, sit here!"

Hinata- "Someone is excited"

She put down her towel and then proceed to wash her body while sitting on the stool with the 'maid' on her side.

Hinata enters the hot spring and sits beside Shiori when she's done with the 'maid' soaking her body in the water on Hinata's right.

Shiori- "You can drop the maid act now, Demon Lord Luminous Valentine"

Luminous and Hinata are shocked to know that Shiori not only knows Luminous name but also her real identity and they are getting wary of her.

Hinata- "How did you know?"

Shiori- "Ouch! You don't need to give me that look, Hina-chan. It might awaken something in me"

She said with her hand on both of her cheeks and giggling while shaking her head left and right.

Hinata and Luminous were not having any of it and continued to look intensely at her.

Shiori- "Okay, okay! Sheesh, you girls are no fun! We're in a non-aggression treaty anyway so might as well tell you about it"

She cleared her throat to add some tension to this already tense atmosphere.

Shiori- "I have my way and that way is called Nia, she's my Manas. If you don't know what that is, let's just that it's a God Omniscient Core, you can't hide anything from her if you're in the same world as her"

Hinata- "HUH?!"

Shiori- "I was still surprised when I see Ruberios force marching through the Jura Forest because I never thought that THE Holy Empire would bother itself with a small gathering of monsters"

She states how outrageous it is for the Holy Empire of Ruberios to personally check the gathering of monsters in the Jura Forest even if they deemed it as the enemy of god.

Shiori- "Why did you get here again, Luminous?"

Luminous- "My friend told me to consider having a treaty with your city and after I tell Hinata about you being the queen of monsters. Let's just say that she's pestering me to go here quickly like a kid"

Hinata- "That certainly didn't happen, Luminous-sama"

Shiori- "Who is your friend?"

Luminous- "You might know her as the Conqueror of Flames, she seems to have finished washing her body there"

Shiori followed Luminous gaze and notice Shizue walking to the hot spring with a towel covering her body and submerging herself in the hot water.

Luminous- "Hey there, Shizu-chan"

Shizue- "Hello, Luminous, how long does it take for her to figure you out?"

Luminous- "She knew the whole time but doesn't want to say it in front of other people"

Shiori- "WAIT! Are you the same vampire which Mio and I sense during the Orc Disaster battle!?"

Shizue- "See? You can't hide from her"
