Rimuru's POV

In a luxurious, comfortable bed inside a beautifully decorated room, I found myself wrapped in the softest blanket imaginable.

"It's been ages since I last slept." I murmured to myself.

The last time I got a proper rest was when Vesta made me a sleeping pill, but it didn't work as intended. And since evolving into my new species and acquiring the skill God's Imagination, I discovered something fascinating I could create dreams. Or rather, Ciel-san could.

But this time, the dream she conjured was... odd.

"I was some kind of womanizer freak. Seriously, Ciel-san? What's going on in your head?"

A/N: I smell foreshadowing.

She didn't respond, but I swear I could feel her smirking somewhere.

As I lay there, the heavenly comfort of the bed tempted me to stay longer. It felt divine-like the beds in royalty-class hotels from my previous world. Think seven-star luxury, Dubai level.

But as much as I wanted to stay, there was food waiting for me. And as a foodie, that was more than enough motivation to get up.

When I opened my eyes, however, I froze.

"Holy... Who the hell are you?"

Two maids stood at the foot of my bed, one with pink hair and the other with blue. They looked eerily similar-twins?

Before I could gather my thoughts, the pink-haired maid smirked.

"Sister, sister, it seems our guest has finally decided to wake up

"Sister, sister, it seems our guest has finally decided to wake up."

The blue-haired maid responded with a teasing tone. "Yes, Rem. But for someone who enjoys peeking at women while they're bathing, he looks rather innocent now."

Wait. What?

"Hey, hey! That's a complete misunderstanding! I wasn't peeking at anyone!"

Rem grinned mischievously. "Oh? So you didn't see me during my bath? My perfectly shaped body, my soft skin, or my-"

"NOPE! Didn't see a thing!" I blurted out, my face burning with embarrassment.

Before I could say more, I heard Ciel's voice.

<< Master, warning. A table is flying toward you. >>

I barely managed to catch the table before it smashed into me.

"Hey! Do you know how dangerous that was? What if it broke my bed? Do you have any idea how hard it is to find a bed this comfy?"

The pink-haired maid, Ram, shot me a cold glare. "For someone like you, a broken bed should be the least of your concerns."

Women... truly terrifying creatures.

Thankfully, her twin, Rem, stepped in to apologize. Unlike her sister, she was polite and soft-spoken, the very image of grace. I couldn't help but feel drawn to her shy demeanor.

Later, as I sat in the dining room with Emilia, Rem, and Ram, I couldn't help but notice the irritating clown sitting across from me.

"Tch. Of all people to ruin a perfectly good morning..."

It wasn't that I had a personal vendetta against clowns. It was just him. His creepy smile and those unsettling eyes made my skin crawl.

If Diablo knew how much I hated clowns, he'd probably annihilate every last one of them just to make me happy. Not that I'd ever admit it to him-it'd be a disaster.

After the meal, I turned to Ciel in my mind.

"Hey, Ciel. Do you have any plans for what we should do next?"

<< Master, I suggest you start collecting wives. It would make things... interesting. >>

I froze. "Wait, what? Wives? Are you telling me to start a harem?"

<< If it makes you cooler and happier, I fully support it. Besides, you can't produce offspring, so it's purely for companionship. >>

I stared blankly, unsure if this was some grand scheme of hers or just Ciel-san being Ciel-san.

"So, uh, where do I even start?"

<< I believe Emilia would be a good first choice. After all, your fondness for elves is well-documented. Remember the first H-anime you watched? It featured an elf. >>

"Hey! How do you even know about that?!"

<< Oh, just a hunch. >>

Her teasing laughter echoed in my mind as I sighed, rubbing my temples.

A gentle knock at the door interrupted my thoughts. Rem stepped inside, her blue hair glowing softly in the light.

"Rimuru-sama, would you like to join me? I'm heading to the nearby village, and I can give you a tour."

Her shy smile melted away any lingering annoyance I felt. How could I say no to that?

"Sure. But please, drop the 'sama' Just Rimuru is fine. I'll ask Emilia to join us-if that's okay with you?"

She nodded, her cheeks tinged with the faintest pink.

As she left, I smiled to myself.

"Alright, Emilia. Let's see if you're ready for what's coming."

To be continued...

A/N: Thank you for reading this chapter!
I know this was pretty short. The reason for that is this is merely an introduction chapter.

I noticed some people were still reading so, I'm still working on improving the chapters when I have free time.
