"All of the human countries are attacking Tempest."

However, in her statement. I waited for the next sentence to come out of Luminous mouth but wasn't able to do it. I waited for her, it takes me a moment to realize but at the end of Luminous's sentence, someone stopped time.

This means someone cast the suspended world. I thought I would find answers myself but I wasn't expecting the mastermind to approach me himself.

As I glance behind, a man whose much taller than me, clad in a pitch-black miasma that is covering his whole body. He slowly walks towards us, I know this may be surprising to say. But his leaking magicules is as much as powerful as a full power Milim. Basically, just from the leak of magicules, he is comparable to True Dragons.

"So you showed yourself finally. You are the opponent who followed me from the void of the end of space-time. Insect person, what do you seek? why are you fighting me?"

However, he doesn't seem to have the reasoning to listen to me. He pointed his fingers not to me but to Luminous whose frozen in time. A deadly ray tried to puncture straight to Luminous' heart. Thankfully, I was able to grab Luminous away from the attack.

"Rimuru Tempest! Rimuru Tempest! Destroy Rimuru Tempest!"

Quiet! I don't know what kind of voice is that, but when he speaks I feel a part of my soul is breaking just because of his voice. A deep voice like a system-generated voice like what Ciel used to be.

He fired multiple deadly rays toward us, it's speed alone surpassed Milim's full power Drago Nova. He thrust himself at me attacking me with his fist. He was able to graze my face and I did the same by launching Beelzebub. However, both of us won't go down with these kinds of attacks. I need to land a powerful decisive blow on that guy's face.

Ciel, are you there? This guy is seriously strong! I wanted to use Azathoth now!

I shouted the unconscious Ciel, I used it immediately after I saw an opening.

"Erase him, Azathoth!"

An orb of Nihility Energy ejected within my palms, the Insect Person didn't bulge but the leaking miasma in its body absorbed the Nihility energy?!

Oi oi, you gotta be kidding me. I thought Nihility energy erases everything it touches!

I am in big trouble! Who is this guy anyway?! There is nothing to be done, I can't just half-wittedly fight this person, he is too strong!

The insect person continues to fire beams and punches not at me but it was directed at Luminous which I am carrying throughout the battle.

The Insect Person once again approached me with a phenomenal speed. Halfway he fastly dashed back when he sensed that I have wrenched the Sword of Tempest within the depths of the Imaginary Space. I wrenched it using my right hand, while my left hand was carrying Luminous.

Note: Sword of Tempest is the Genesis Class Sword that Rimuru ingrains True Dragon cores.

The blade that is unreleased for a long time emits that raw overwhelming feeling, it is the same sword that split the ocean into two pieces. As I held it, it is convulsing violently as if all of the True Dragon cores imbued are telling me to slay this Insect Person. The blade suddenly exploded an aura of four otherworldly existence. The blade that I regulated to just Storm now without my approval discharged all of its potential a.k.a. Stellar, Scorch, Storm, and Earth at the same time. One wrong swing and we can say bye-bye even to stars lightyears away.

"DESTROY RIMURU TEMPEST!!!"

"Is your sole existence just to eradicate me?"

Once again he approached me with his bare arms. But this time, the power of the True Dragons sliced its miasma like it is nothing, the body that Azathoth couldn't destroy was pierced by the Sword of Tempest.

I dashed in and follow up the attack with multiple attacks of the blade.

The insect Person's body is in tatters. While he is a difficult opponent to deal with, I think he has a fatal flaw. True Dragon magic was one thing to point out, while Azathoth is completely useless against him. True Dragon attacks may work, so I am nowhere inferior to him. If we battle for a thousand times I am positive I'll win all of those a thousand. But I won't get careless a second time like what I did to Yuuki.

When I moved in to finish up the Insect Person. It was a trap that I was lured into. An other-dimension type of magic circle beyond my knowledge was fired on the spot where I moved in.

It discharged a powerful attack of pure Void energy. I thought I was done for, I almost forgot that the Energy of the void only empowers me...

However, after the powerful attack, I can no longer sense the Insect Person in sight.

Tsk, he escaped. 

Though, it is a good thing we came to know Insect Person in person.

But...

I also came to know that I barely even have room for breathing, even after acquiring all the power in this world I barely even have the advantage.

The suspended world disappeared after that brief exchange of blows. Unrevealed to Luminous what happened.

"The Western Council, together with other human countries, aided Farmus kingdom in eradicating the monster kingdom..."

Err... what is Luminous saying?

I can't understand anything she's said for some reason. Is this fatigue? It's something I haven't felt in a long time. But my reserves did not shrink in the least, and I still have physical resistance; I believe this is due to mental tension from that harrowing event.

"Hey, are you listening?"

Luminous said with a slight pout.

"Ehehe-hehe..."

My body fell over transforming into my slime form. Thankfully, Luminous was able to catch me. I couldn't move an inch.

While Luminous and Rimuru argue, Rimuru is unaware of what this timeline has in store for him. Certainly, the plot of this novel may take a terrible turn that Rimuru was not aware of. The Insect Person, who will certainly become Rimuru's last opponent, Yuuki Kagurazaka, the warped genius, the manifestation of depravity that may exceed even time itself. Prior to the Charybdis conflict, even Kondo wielded influence. More questions remain unsolved. Rimuru Tempest was formerly a human who was stabbed to death. He saved various monsters, established his country, and in the process saved the world from destruction, becoming the Great Demon Lord who saved it. He went to restart and saved his last indulgence: Shizue Izawa.

He is Rimuru Tempest, and he is just a slime.
