Now that the three elves had left, it was fairly quiet in the village again. Since the old village had burned down, we had built a new one in a different location. Rigurd, together with the other goblin lords, created a system of government for us. Now everything runs its usual course.

"Mistress Rimuru. We were going to have a banquet today to celebrate the founding of our new village. Would you like to attend?" Rigurd suddenly asks me from behind.

"A banquet? Not a bad idea. I'll join you!"

It's been a while since I've eaten really good food, so I'm not going to let this opportunity pass me by.

As I stroll through the village with such thoughts, I see Rigur, Gobuta, a few more Golbins, and a couple of wolves standing at the gate. They seem to be arguing about something. It seems like there are problems. I just ask.

"What's going on. Is there trouble?"

"No, no. It's just that more magical beasts are appearing in the forest. The monsters are just 

adapting to their environment. I don't think it's anything serious." he says.

"Mhmmmm. Diablo!"

Immediately, Diablo appears next to me.

"Yes mistress?"

"Go with them into the forest and make sure nothing happens to them."

"As you wish!"

"But do not overdo it. If an opponent strong by human standards crosses your path, don't kill him, but bring him here."

"Understood!"

So they went on their way. Mhmm. I have a bad feeling about this.

-Diablo POV.-

We were hunting normally. Tonight there is to be a great banquet to celebrate the founding of 

the new village, and even Mistress Rimuru wants to attend. That means we'll have to really go all out with the hunting so she'll be pleased with us. And that means that I cannot tolerate any irregularities on today's day.

One such irregularity that needs to be dealt with is looming before us right now.

Ogres. Six ogres are standing in our way. I would like to get rid of them right now. However, Mistress Rimuru has ordered me to capture all opponents who are strong by human standards and bring them back with me. I must comply with this order.

"A demon. Finally we have you!" says the red-haired ogre.

"What do you want?" I ask, for the sake of politeness.

"Don't pretend! You know what we want! Having monsters as subordinates is not something a 

normal human could manage! You demon suppress your aura, you think we don't notice?!" he roars in response.

"Show us your true form." says the old man next to him in a calm but serious voice. He looks old 

at first sight, but he is actually the strongest of them. He is round about 900 years old and accordingly has experience in fighting. Even though he has a low energy level, his speed, dexterity and agility seem to exceed the limits of an ogre by far.

"That the mastermind behind all this shows himself to us is almost miraculous." says the other with dark blue hair in a cold tone. He's about as strong as the cheeky redhead who seems to be the leader.
