"It was a year after we left Erza in your care that we travelled to the land of Islvan. Had we heard of a powerful mage who was able to freeze even the vast oceans..." said Rimuru as Markarov watched from his seat.

"Oh, I'm flattered," said a bored Ur. Luminous paid her no attention and continued.

"We had gone to see her for training because Love was interested in ice maker magic," Luminous said. "We then went to the town of Brago, and to our surprise, we found people digging in the ice...", Rimuru explained.

"But I thought the ice shell magic was permanent?" asked Markarov curiously. "And no tool or magic, no matter how big, could destroy it?"

"It is..." said Ur, sitting on a chair with her hands folded over her chest and her legs crossed, opening her eyes as she began her explanation.

"I don't know who it was, but someone had managed to melt the ice, but what was really surprising was that my body was intact, as if it had been restored, but I felt very weak at the time," Ur explained.

"The tools had done little damage, we had ignored them and returned to our journey, but a day later we heard that Zeref's demon was still alive and kicking. This was very surprising, so we travelled there again... the damage was immeasurable. After searching for a minute, we found Ur unconscious...," Rimuru explained.

"But what really surprised me was when I woke up," Ur interrupted. Markarov looked on curiously. Ur looked at Markarov with a serious expression on his face.

"Someone had implanted a dragon lacrima in me, that of an ice dragon...", Ur explained. Markarov's eyes widened at this fact. "Just like Laxus..."

"So now you can..."

"Dragon slaying magic? Yes...", Ur explained. The pair, however, were silent after that, they had felt a presence that day, an evil presence.

"When I asked some people around me, they said that a couple with an eerie aura, had melted the ice.... And who had implanted the Lacrima, I don't know...", Ur explained. Markarov immediately turned to the now silent couple.

"Rimuru, Luminous?" asked Markarov curiously. They both didn't answer as they were talking to Ciel in their minds. "They look worried..." thought Ur.

"Hey you two?" called Markarov again. They blinked as they looked up at Markarov, "Sorry, we were lost in thought."

"As Ur said, we tended to her wounds afterwards, but she ran away when she heard the demon was still alive.... To face it again..." explained Rimuru. "It was..." Luminous wanted to add.

"Reckless, yes, yes, I know, so shut up, you brat!" scolded Ur. Marakrow just grinned....

"Hey, you, leave me alone already! I'll take care of this stupid monster!" shouted Ur. They paid no attention to her as they watched Deliora, who was approaching them.

"Do you want to die again?" asked Luminous. "This is none of your business! Now get out of here!" shouted an angry Ur.

They didn't respond as they dodged a blow from the monster. "Tch, stubborn brats...," muttered Ur as she too jumped back.

Rimuru watched Deliora as a jewel began to glitter on his head. Ur immediately cringed as she shouted at Rimuru.

"Brat, get out of there now!"

As the smoke cleared, Ur looked on in despair. "Girl! Are you all right?"

"I'm a man!!!" came his voice from the air as Ur looked up and saw Rimuru, who had his hands folded over his chest and his coat blowing in the wind. Rimuru landed next to his wife as Ur yelled at him.
