In the Western Holy Church, Asriel had managed to disguise himself as what appeared to be a normal human, his horns were gone and he had casual clothes. The only thing that makes him stand out is his mask, Rimuru also had some contact with Luminous Valentine to get Asriel to somehow be paired with Hinata whether it be on a Mission or putting Asriel as a temporary official in Ruberios, specifically the Western Holy Church. And so, Luminous cooperated with them and partnered up Hinata with Asriel
Asriel then went to the place where the Western Holy Church lied in, simply to just meet with Hinata Sakaguchi, and not too long passed, he met up with her
"Hmm, so you're the guy Lord Valentine was talking about" Hinata said
"Yes, I am" Asriel replied, with the mask making his voice sound different
"So, what's your name?" She asked
"My name is Hakuto Shiremuya, and you must be Hinata Sakaguchi" Asriel thought of a fake name at the last second
"Nice to meet you Hakuto, Lord Valentine assigned us a long-term mission, and paired us two for it. So don't disappoint me" Hinata said
"Don't worry, I won't" Asriel reassured her
"Also what's with your mask? It's rude to talk to a higher position without showing me your face" Hinata commented
"Well.. this mask was a gift to me by my Master, she unfortunately passed away recently, and I wanted to treasure them by wearing this mask" Asriel thought of a somewhat convincing lie
"O-oh, I see. Well, I'll make an exception for you then" Hinata said, Asriel's story somewhat reminding her of her old Master, Shizue Izawa
"Thank you" Asriel said to Hinata
"Now, introductions aside, we need to go for that Mission" Hinata said as she turned around
"Come on" Hinata rushed Asriel
"Alright" Asriel said
Both of them went on out to the Forest in accordance to Luminous' Mission for them. The Mission includes them finding an Ancient Ruin and bring back a sample of it
The two would venture out for several hours, killing any Monster that dared challenge them. Hinata ate a lot for Breakfast, so not eating Lunch is no problem for her, but for Asriel... he was starving, so luckily enough, they were able to set up camp for the night. And Asriel took this opportunity to try and convince Hinata that not all Monsters are a threat to any of them
"Hey, Miss Hinata, can I tell a story?" Asriel asked her
"Hmm, go on" Hinata said to him
"Alright, it goes a little something like this"

[*Once upon a time, there lived two races, Monsters, and Humans. One day, war broke out between the two races, eventually, the Monsters lost, and they were sealed under a mountain with a powerful Barrier. During the Present Time, a Child climbed up the mountain, despite the legends saying that those who climb it, never return...]
[*However, that Human that fell down into the Kingdom of Monsters, made friends with the Monster Prince. And slowly, they became best friends, the Monsters there too became friends with her, and the Human thought of a plan for the Monsters to be released, as she was treated with kindness and respect. She thought to sacrifice her Human Soul, in order to for the Prince to absorb it, and become a being of unimaginable power, cross the Barrier, gather 6 more Human Souls, and destroy the Barrier. If this plan was executed right, the Monsters would be free]
[*But when the time came and the Monster Prince was face-to-face with the Humans that he was meant to kill in order to release his people, he couldn't do a thing. And when the Humans attacked him, he simply turned around and walked back to the Underground. He had the power to destroy them all, but his kind heart just wouldn't let him do it. Which eventually resulted in him dying, and his Best Friend, dying for nothing]
